Chapter 784: Lao Jiang's conspiracy
In just two days, the Japanese army used a large number of trucks, mules and horses to deliver the weapons and ammunition of the promised six divisions to Hubei.
Hu Xinghan personally led people to receive it, and when he saw the mountain of weapons, his mouth was about to close with a smile. This is the first time that you can get so many weapons and equipment without fighting, and if you want to get weapons and ammunition equivalent to 100,000 people, you will have to pay a huge sacrifice.
The devils in charge of transportation are hateful and afraid, they hate that they once dominated China and are now so humiliated, to the point that they want to send weapons to seek peace. What I'm afraid of is what these PLA masters will do if they don't have enough weapons and fight over.
Fortunately, the People's Liberation Army still counts when it speaks, and with a wave of his hand, the devils get out. However, before leaving, Hu Xinghan decided that the supplies would not be unloaded from trucks or mules, and that they would all be taken as ordered.
As for the devils, Hu Xinghan was very kind to let them walk all the way back from Hubei, just to exercise their physical strength and endurance, and if they encounter them on the battlefield in the future, they can escape faster even if they run for their lives.
Although the devils were extremely angry, the People's Liberation Army had already driven them away with guns. The devil was helpless, so he could only hug his head and run away under the muzzle of the black hole, and the speed of escape was indeed not slower than the speed of mules and horses!
As for the materials received, Hu Xinghan ordered the transport troops to immediately transport all the vehicles back to the base area. All of them were retrained to create the PLA's own weapons and equipment.
After all the devils went back, Shunroku Hata heard that the other party had even detained his car, and immediately became angry again. But after the fire, he still had to honestly command the army to fight against the Kuomintang-Party army, and he could only be helpless against this bandit act of the PLA.
The fighting in the Huaihua area continued, and Shunroku Hata had no worries about the future, and transferred a large number of troops to the front, and launched a series of major battles with the Kuomintang-Party army. The two sides won and lost each other, and it was difficult to solve the battle for a while.
In Chongqing, the rear of the country and the army, the news from Hubei reached here at the fastest speed. Suddenly, the entire KMT-Party leadership learned that the PLA had seized the opportunity to seize Hubei and caused the Japanese to bleed.
For a time, two winds blew in Chongqing, one was dominated by patriotic generals and democrats, who were full of praise for the PLA, believing that they had greatly promoted China's military might and thoroughly gave little Japan a good look.
There is also the anti-communist faction dominated by Chiang Kai-shek, who hate it and grit their teeth and wantonly insult the PLA for taking advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of the state and the army to hold back the Japanese to gain such great benefits.
Chongqing was also quarrelling on a daily basis, with many advocating a retaliatory attack against the People's Liberation Army (PLA) in alliance with the Japanese. However, more patriotic democrats scolded this kind of traitor and traitorous behavior, and for a time the Chongqing Kuomintang and the party were arguing fiercely, and there was a great tendency to resist the court.
In order to prevent people with intentions from taking advantage of this incident to seize power on a large scale, Lao Chiang came forward at a critical moment and calmed down the turmoil with the slogan of resisting Japan as a family.
But Lao Jiang's heart did not calm down because the turmoil subsided, but it was even more turbulent in his heart, and a powerful storm was brewing in his heart.
In Chongqing, in the general's mansion, Chiang Kai-shek-shi, the number one leader of the Kuomintang, sat behind his desk with a cold expression, carefully reading the reports sent by his generals. He read it carefully, occasionally stopping to think about it, as if he was afraid of missing something or missing something.
There were still a few people standing in front of him, Dai Li, Yu Jishi, and Chen Cheng, who had rushed back from the front line. There is also Bai Chongxi, a general from the Gui Army and known as Xiao Zhuge .
After a long time, Lao Jiang finally finished reading the report.
He gently placed the report on the table, his brow furrowed. Looking up at the few people in front of him, except for Bai Chongxi, who didn't respect him so much, the rest of the people all straightened their backs, as if they were being reviewed by the head of state.
"What do you think of the feasibility of this report?" Lao Jiang said in a dull voice, as if his chest was filled with gloom: "You are all people involved in this plan, I want to hear your real thoughts!" ”
The room was quiet for a while, and finally Lao Jiang himself broke the silence: "Jiansheng, you little Zhuge is resourceful and good at fighting, let's talk about it!" ”
Bai Chongxi, who was obviously a little away from several other people, smiled slightly: "Chairman, can you trust me so much?" Chief Chen is also a general, isn't it the same when he asks him? ”
Lao Jiang waved his hand: "We won't talk about these vanities now, the People's Liberation Army is our common enemy, just like the Japanese, and even they are more hateful than the Japanese." Jiansheng, I hope you will put aside your prejudices and help me plan how to deal with the PLA! ”
Bai Chongxi's eyes lit up, although he and Lao Jiang were not in the same camp, both sides had their own interest systems. But in the final analysis, they are all Kuomintang-Party members, who believe in ************, and what they hate most is the red regime. As for the People's Liberation Army, they are surprisingly consistent in their treatment of the Japanese.
Bai Chongxi nodded: "Chairman, to be honest, I think this report is very feasible." Hasn't the People's Liberation Army always talked about resisting Japan? Then let them go to Xi'an, go to Hebei, and fight all the way to the northeast. We pretend to work with them to secretly eliminate their main force. In this way, why should the People's Liberation Army not be destroyed? ”
Lao Jiang nodded, but then sighed: "This is just our own wishful thinking, the People's Liberation Army is not stupid, it will not listen to our arrangement, let them fight wherever they go!" ”
Bai Chongxi shook his head: "Chairman of the Committee, you ordered them as the supreme commander of the Chinese Theater of Operations, and they must think it through." And we also send troops to help them, and if they don't go, what will the whole country think of them? In any case, morally, we are on the high ground. Whether they go or not, we win. ”
Lao Jiang thought for a long time, and then nodded: "I hope Yan Xishan will not let us down this time, this old slippery head, it was clear that the Japanese had negotiated with him last time." But this guy didn't do anything after receiving things, so he just didn't move. If he could attack the PLA from the side, the current battle situation would not be like this! ”
"Yan Xishan can't be trusted, but there are people under him who are willing to help us!" Bai Chongxi smiled mysteriously: "Yan Xishan has been sitting in this position for too long, and some people don't want to see him continue to sit. I have already contacted an important general under him to take out Yan Xishan at a critical moment and command all of Yan Xishan's troops. When the time comes, the good days of the People's Liberation Army will come to an end! ”
"Good, good!" Lao Jiang didn't expect Bai Chongxi to leave such a hand, and stood up excitedly: "Jiansheng, you little Zhuge really didn't call it for nothing." I will leave this matter to you with confidence, with you, the good days of the People's Liberation Army will come to an end! ”
"Chairman, now that the Americans have given us so much support, soon our military strength will be greatly enhanced. At that time, the Japanese will be completely vulnerable in front of us, and when the Japanese are eliminated, the PLA can be completely crushed! Dai Lian echoed with a smile.
Lao Jiang sneered: "The Americans didn't provide us with weapons before, and they didn't give us assistance until the little devils beat them up in the Pacific Ocean and cried for their fathers and mothers." These Niang Xipi's dog things, they don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin! ”
"Let's arrange this plan as soon as possible, I hope to be fully operational within half a year. The PLA is getting stronger and stronger, and I don't want the day when the Japanese are wiped out, we suddenly have an incomparably stronger opponent! ****** slammed his fist on the table, and his eyes showed an incomparably cold edge: "China, there can't be two suns." If there is to exist, there can only be one sun, me, to spread light! ”
At the end of the war, the threat of the Japanese to the PLA base areas temporarily disappeared.
Because the great victory of the Southern Army also solved the dilemma of the Northern Army.
The Japanese troops who were fighting in the Shanxi area took the initiative to propose a ceasefire agreement, and they were afraid that the **** would lead the Southern Army to the north for reinforcements, and Xi'an would be in danger at that time.
The armies of both sides suffered heavy losses, and Commander-in-Chief Zhu De immediately agreed to the devil's request and agreed to a ceasefire and truce so that he could recuperate.
Leaving a part of its forces in the border area, the entire Northern Army Group withdrew to the territory of Shaanxi.
In this operation, Army Group South lost more than 40,000 people. Army Group North suffered even greater losses, amounting to about 50,000 men.
As soon as the war stopped, a recruitment fever began in the base area. There are conscription offices everywhere, and the PLA has to recruit a large number of soldiers, form a new army, replenish the lost troops, and at the same time strengthen the PLA.
They have at least one year to prepare, and according to ******'s instructions, the PLA should develop at least 200,000 more elite troops on the existing basis. Local armed forces should also be developed at the same time, so that they can be replenished at any time in the event of losses in the main forces.
, He Long, Hu Xinghan and Gao Dong all returned to Xi'an. Their contribution was enormous, and Chairman Mao specially convened a celebration meeting to celebrate the merits of all the officers of the Southern Group Army Command.
If it weren't for the tremendous merits of the Southern Group Army this time, the entire base area would be in danger, and they can be said to be the great heroes of the entire base area.
Gao Dong declined his promotion, and he made it clear to the Military Commission that he just wanted to be a charging soldier. As for the generals or marshals, it is still left to **** them.
The others respected his opinion, but made it clear that his merits will not be forgotten by the entire Chinese people, and the party will not forget it.
The consolidation of the base area is also proceeding rapidly, and everything that was destroyed by the Japanese army in the great war is being rebuilt as quickly as possible.
They had a large number of Japanese prisoners and happened to be the new force of reconstruction.
The devils never thought that when they became soldiers to the end, they all came to China to do a coolie. It is estimated that if they knew that there would be such a result, they would not have come to China if they were killed.
Everything seemed to be calm, and at this time, Gao Dong quietly set off from Xi'an to Wuhu with a few of his cronies.
He has more important things to do, a big thing about the final direction of the war, waiting for him to solve!
