"Okay, don't be so sad! We have survived the most difficult times, so this difficulty is nothing!" Looking at the two younger brothers who were hesitant to speak, Ma Yaonan continued: "But, as the old saying goes,
There is a saying that 'tolerance is inclusive', we should really go out and take a good look!
This matter is very important and cannot be decided by the three of us brothers. Tomorrow morning we will convene an enlarged meeting for democratic centralized discussion! Our goal and purpose is national liberation and the establishment of a prosperous, strong and democratic new China, but the path we need to take requires
Keep exploring!”
However, the model developed by Jiang Qiang is not available in any current books and materials. Even if Ma Yaonan breaks his head, he cannot use the theories he has learned to analyze it! In this regard, Ma Yaonan can only say that he has reservations, unless he has personal experience.
Only after personal practice would he believe that this road would work. The next morning, the Third Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Detachment held an enlarged meeting, focusing on the post-war reconstruction of Yutai County!
After a whole day of intense discussion, the meeting finally reached the resolution of sending an inspection team to Zhaoyuan for inspection. After the meeting, the resolution was reported to the superior organization for approval. After being passed on layer by layer, the resolution reached Yan'an and once again caused a stir.
Intense discussion.
"There is no road in the world, it just becomes a road if more people walk on it! I have said in the early years that the Soviet model is not completely applicable to us and cannot be copied completely! Since there is such a good opportunity to conduct a pilot project, then we can definitely go big
Have the courage to practice it! We don’t have to do it, but we have to let it go!”
In the end, the committee member took the board and gave extremely detailed instructions. He also wanted to see what the results would be if the pilot was carried out in this way! After receiving the top instructions, the commander of the third detachment, Ma Yaonan, the political commissar Huo Shilian, and the deputy commander
Yang Guofu, Chief of Staff Ye Gengxin, Director of the Political Department Bao Hui and others reported to Jiang Qiang to visit Zhaoyuan and Qixia County to visit and study.
Jiang Qiang wanted this effect, so he naturally opened the door to it and agreed without any hesitation. For this purpose, a reception team was specially formed to be responsible for the food, clothing, housing and transportation of Ma Yaonan and others.
Zhaoyuan Military Hospital. Under the highest standard of careful treatment, Feng Lin was out of danger and has now been transferred to the general ward. His physical condition is getting better day by day, but he still cannot get up and land! A big contributor to this is his long-term use of Myanmar
Rice, and now unlimited supply of nutritious medicines during the recovery period! But Jiang Qiang obviously will not be as "frugal on food and clothing" as before. The team is constantly expanding, and the supply of some key training combat units needs to be further strengthened.
According to the new plan, it will only be enough for three and a half months of consumption, so Jiang Qiang plans to save 1,000 tons in one go before restoring the previous planting plan! In that case, there is no need to be as careful with the budget as now!
Anyway, there is really no shortage of money now, and no matter how advanced the weapons and equipment are, they still have to be operated and used by people. The strong physique and physical fitness of the soldiers can greatly increase the combat effectiveness and reduce unnecessary casualties!
"Brother Feng, come on, take a few more bites. This is specially supplied Burmese rice. After eating it, you can recover faster!" Wang Jiacai held the lunch box and a spoon, feeding Feng Lin with a full face, although there was no
She moved to that home in Yutai County, but she has a new home in her heart. Due to her tragic experience and publicity significance, Wang Jiacai has now become a celebrity. She has made headlines not only on radio stations and news newspapers many times, but also in Jinan.
There was a program on Shandong Radio Station.
For such a typical person, Jiang Qiang will naturally take care of her, assigning her a separate apartment, giving her a settlement allowance of 500 yuan, and a stable and high-tech civil servant position! Wang Jiacai's education is not low, with a high school diploma.
If compared with modern times, it is completely comparable to a bachelor's degree, so Jiang Qiang can be regarded as giving full play to his talents.
Feng Lin smiled painfully and happily: "I'm really full. I'm lying in bed all day now, and I don't do much exercise. How can I eat so much! Cai'er, if you don't dislike it, you can eat the rest."
Eat what’s fallen!”
As a poor child from a poor family, Feng Lin was naturally very happy to be cared for by such a beautiful and talented woman. Apart from being a little anxious about not being able to return to the army for training, he felt very comfortable.
Feng Lin was originally from Sichuan and was one of the first batch of troops to withdraw from the battlefield in northern Hebei. However, he was "cut off" by Yang Fan's men on the way to Shandong! In more than a year, Feng Lin, through unremitting efforts and outstanding performance,
Gradually growing up to be the captain of a colonel can be regarded as a prosperous official career!
"Hehe! Then I'm welcome!" Wang Jiacai didn't mean to dislike it at all. On the contrary, he was very happy. Firstly, eating Feng Lin's leftovers meant that the relationship between the two had reached a certain level. Secondly, this Burmese rice was not ordinary.
People can afford it!
"Hehe! We both share life and death, so there's no need to be polite!" Seeing that Wang Jiacai was eating happily and didn't mind having his own saliva on the spoon, Feng Lin said with a smile in a good mood:
"When I get better, I'll treat you to a big meal!"
Wang Jiacai smiled sweetly and said: "How can one meal be enough? It's better to do it every day from now on!" Upon hearing this, Feng Lin didn't know what it meant, and immediately shouted with great joy: "Okay! I will raise him from now on."
You are the one!" "I hate it! Who wants you to support me? I am also a civil servant with a serious job now!"
Wang Jiacai blushed immediately and rolled his eyes at Feng Lin, but his heart was filled with joy. "Bah! Haha, Captain Feng, congratulations! It turns out that a beauty loves a hero, what a match made in heaven!"
"At this moment, Li Jinglin and several officers walked into the ward with smiles, winked at Feng Lin and Wang Jiacai, and kept clapping their hands.
"Ouch! Master's seat, brigade seat, chief of staff, why are you here!" Feng Lin's pupils shrank, and he quickly put his hands on the bed to sit up straight. "Haha, don't move! We're just here to take a look at our
Fighting hero!"
Li Jinglin hurriedly walked over and held Feng Lin down, and said with a smile: "Take good care of your health, and when you are discharged from the hospital, I will grant you a week of wedding leave, so that you two can live a happy life again!" "Oh!"
Wang Jiacai's pretty face was as red as a ripe red apple. She stood up and said with an extremely coquettish voice: "Master, how did I say that I wanted to marry him?" Looking at Wang Jiacai's tough mouth but very honest body,
Li Jinglin smiled evilly and continued to hit the target:
"Men should get married when they are young, and girls should get married when they are young. What is there to be embarrassed about? Our chief executive has always emphasized that we should make revolution and focus on production, and both hands must be strong! Our revolution needs to be passed down from generation to generation. Since you are in the same mood, then
Just pass by and don’t miss it, hurry up and get your marriage certificate and have a baby soon!”
"Master!" "I hate it!"
Both Feng Lin and Wang Jiacai were blushing and were extremely embarrassed for a while. However, since Li Jinglin held a high position and had good intentions, they had no choice but to "submit it" and secretly felt happy in their hearts.
Li Jinglin said seriously: "I'm really not kidding you. The chief is planning to hold a grand collective modern wedding on March 22 of the Gregorian calendar, which is our traditional Chinese Dragon Head Festival!
The chief wedding officer requires at least 1,000 couples to get married. At that time, he will also reimburse all wedding and related expenses from the government finance, and will not let the newlyweds who attend the wedding spend a penny, and the chief wedding officer will serve as witnesses for everyone.
Giving out big red envelopes.
This is a task personally arranged by the chief minister. Do we have to actively respond to the call?" The Dragon Head Festival refers to the dragon raising its head, which falls on February 2 of the lunar calendar. It is also known as the Spring Plowing Festival, Farming Festival, Green Dragon Festival, Spring Dragon Festival, etc. It is a Chinese folk tradition.
festival.
"Dragon" refers to the seven-constellation star of the Eastern Canglong among the twenty-eight constellations. Every year at the beginning of the Mao lunar month in mid-spring, the "Dragon-horned star" rises from the eastern horizon, so it is called "the dragon raises its head". "The dragon raises its head" is a symbol of ancient Chinese farming culture.
The reflection of the seasons marks the emergence of Yang Qi from the ground, the sudden thunder of spring, the increase of rain, the rise of temperature, the vitality of all things, and the beginning of spring plowing.
Since ancient times, people have regarded the season when the dragon raises its head as a day to pray for blessings and good luck. "Ah, really? In that case, of course I have no problem! It's just that I'm a little worried that my body won't be able to function well by then."
Upon hearing this, Feng Lin immediately had no objection. Nothing in the world was as powerful as Jiang Qiang's order.
Li Jinglin said: "Don't worry about this. I asked the doctor before I came here. The doctor said that with your physique and recovery speed, you can get off the ground in less than 5 days and move freely within 10. Your wedding will not be delayed.
, not to mention delaying your wedding night ceremony with Duke Zhou!" "Ahem, cough, cough!"
Feng Lin's face turned red all of a sudden. These words were too fierce! Wang Jiacai was even blushing with embarrassment. He tugged at the corner of his clothes with his hands and said in a voice like a mosquito: "Well, okay, since it is
I must obey the tasks assigned by the chief!"
Li Jinglin nodded and laughed: "That's right! Although your family is gone, if you don't dislike it, you can accept me as your eldest brother! In this way, I can be both a matchmaker and a relative of the woman!" "Ah, Master,
How can I, a weak woman, climb so high?"
Wang Jiacai's delicate body trembled slightly. Although he had only met Li Jinglin three times, he had a very good impression of him, and he was a well-known big shot. How could Wang Jiacai not want to recognize him as his adopted brother? "Hey, what do you mean?
It’s serious! In our Shandong Group Army, there is no hierarchy, we are all brothers and sisters! As long as you don’t dislike it, then I will recognize you as my sister?”
Li Jinglin is not someone who seeks relatives randomly. The main reason why he takes such initiative is that he has a close relationship with Wang Jiacai and is extremely sympathetic to her plight.
In addition, Li Jinglin's family has always been thin. As an only child, Li Jinglin has always dreamed of having a well-behaved and sensible sister.
Pay homage!" Having said this, Wang Jiacai stopped being reserved and hurriedly bowed to Li Jinglin and saluted. "Haha! That's great! My parents will definitely be happy when they hear this news!"
Li Jinglin nodded and laughed: "Little sister, hurry up and get rid of the ceremony. Wait a few days until Captain Feng can walk. Let's have another formal recognition ceremony and then set up a few tables to celebrate. How about it?"
Wang Jiacai nodded obediently and said: "Everything depends on the orders of the elder brother." "Then it's settled!" Li Jinglin nodded, and then said: "Captain Feng, who else is there in your hometown?" Feng Lin's heart suddenly jumped.
He was shocked, as if he had seen the beautiful thing he had been looking forward to day and night, and he quickly replied:
"Master, I come from a poor peasant family. My hometown is in Guangyuan, Sichuan. When I went out to Sichuan with the army to fight against Japan, I still had my father, my mother, a younger brother and a younger sister! Master, our hometown is very poor. Our family relies on
Living hard on a few acres of thin land is better when the weather is good, but if there is a little drought or flood, the family will have to endure hunger for several months.
Hey, it has been almost two years in the blink of an eye, and there is still war and chaos in my hometown. I really don’t know how my family is doing now!" As he spoke, Feng Lin's eyes turned red and his voice became choked.
Now he is living a good life that he never dreamed of before, but his parents and younger brothers and sisters in his hometown are still living a precarious and hard life. No matter how much success there is, it is not complete if there is no one to share it with. The most important thing for a family is to be in order
Qi, these days, Feng Lin has seen his parents and siblings from his hometown countless times in his dreams! "Don't be sad, you will get better soon!"
Li Jinglin comforted him, and then said to the Air Force Chief of Staff Liu Qingyuan beside him: "Chief of Staff, the main office does not always have preferential policies to move the direct family members of qualified officers and soldiers from other places to our side.
Captain Feng's conditions must be sufficient, can we get started?" In order to stabilize the military's morale and improve morale and cohesion, Jiang Qiang set up a department to be responsible for matters related to the troops and their families.
Ordinary soldiers who have served for two years, or have performed meritorious services, or have reached a certain level can apply for immediate family members to move to join the army. Liu Qingyuan nodded and said: "Well, there is no problem at all! Leave this matter to me, and it will be done soon.
There are results!”
"Ah!" Feng Lin couldn't help but exclaimed, and quickly thanked Li Jinglin and Liu Qingyuan: "Thank you, Master, and Chief of Staff, for your great kindness, I, Feng Lin, will never forget it for the rest of my life!"
"You're welcome! This is the policy formulated by our commander-in-chief. If you want to thank us, just thank our commander-in-chief!" "Okay! Commander Feng, I won't delay your rest! You are recuperating in peace, and it's about the army.
Don’t worry at all, it won’t be too late to return to the team once the injury is completely healed!”
After chatting for a while, Li Jinglin, Liu Qingyuan and others walked out of the high-end ward where Feng Lin lived with smiles, and then went to visit the other wounded. Wang Jiacai said with a smile: "Brother Feng, our Shandong Army is really great! We have such a team.
, Why worry about defeating the Japanese devils? Why can’t the country be liberated and independent?"
Feng Lin nodded heavily and said: "That's right! I have always believed that our president is the great savior of our people and the invincible god of war of our Chinese nation! Cai'er, do you really have no relatives in your family?"
Wang Jiacai said with a gloomy expression: "Our village was severely harmed by the Japs and Ergouzi. Not only was my father killed by Ergouzi, but several relatives were also wiped out. I really have no relatives in this world!" Feng Lin
He said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't mention these sad things! People can't be resurrected, so don't be too sad. You still have me in this world, and you also recognized a big brother today, right?"
"Well! There are still many good people in this world! Being able to know you and Brother Wang is a blessing I have earned over several lifetimes." Wang Jiacai nodded and smiled slightly. With these two strong supports, she will never feel lonely, helpless and lonely again.
, you no longer have to worry about anything.
On International Women's Day, the Chairman of the Generalissimo issued an order to Xue Yue: In order to ensure the communication line between Nanchang and its rear, the Ninth War Zone immediately turned to the offensive to defeat the Japanese army's attempt.
However, Xue Yue already knew not to blindly obey the Chairman. He said that the troops were undergoing training and needed supplies, and asked to postpone the offensive.
Although Xue Yue was unwilling to take risks and was perfunctory with the chairman of the committee, he shouldered the responsibility of defending Nanchang and did not dare to slack off at all. He actively deployed defenses according to his own intentions. Xue Yue spent more than six months on the south bank of Xiuhe River along the route from Xujiabu to
Strong fortifications were built on the slopes connecting the river bank in the Tuolin area, with a depth of several thousand meters.
The interior of the fortifications is relatively spacious, where you can eat, bathe, defecate, and sleep. Even if the fortifications were bombed by the Japanese army, they could be repaired and maintained intact during the bombing. For this reason, the officers and soldiers called these fortifications "Xianshi Company" and "Dahua Company".
"hotel" to describe the depth and breadth of the fortifications.
Xue Yue's opponent this time is Okamura Neiji, the Lieutenant General Commander of Japan's 11th Army. Okamura Neiji successively studied at the Army Military Academy, Army University, and Army University. After graduating from the Army University, he worked for a long time in the General Staff Headquarters to study Chinese intelligence. He participated in the Japanese
During the Russian War and World War I, he served as a military adviser to the Beiyang warlord Sun Chuanfang and participated in the Chinese Civil War.
Among the many Japanese generals, Okamura Neiji can be regarded as a "famous general". He has made great achievements in leadership and combat. He is meticulous in his work, calm-minded, and has a deep study of China. He is a very difficult opponent.
For the Battle of Nanchang, Okamura Neiji deployed a total of three divisions and a mixed brigade. In addition to using the above two weak divisions for frontal attacks, he used the elite Inaba Division alone for Wuning's front,
Takahide Fujido's independent 14th Mixed Brigade was used as an occupying force.
Stimulated and inspired by Jiang Qiang's blitzkrieg, Okamura Neiji broke with convention and adopted new tactics when attacking Nanchang. He concentrated on using tanks and artillery to form a powerful mechanized attack column.
Among them, there are 106 medium-sized tanks and 75 Type 94 light tanks, which are independently organized into a tank team and used as a breakthrough force. Armored vehicles are used to carry an infantry brigade for coordinated operations, with a strength equivalent to three tank regiments.
This approach of Okamura Neiji reformed the tradition of the Japanese army. The Japanese army has always dispersed tanks to various infantry divisions for separate use. In addition, Okamura also designated the 45th Squadron of the 3rd Flying Regiment to provide air support for the tank convoys.
, and sent a reconnaissance squadron to continuously explore the dynamics of the defenders. This tank group has complete ground-air coordinated combat conditions.
Due to the intensive use of ultra-large-scale artillery on the front, the technology was not mature, so the Japanese army especially strengthened the training of artillery observation and position configuration before the battle. The Japanese artillery commander Sumita Raishiro was an overseas student of the French artillery school, and the
The French army in World War I was second to none in the intensive use of artillery, and the British army sometimes asked for help from French artillery.
Therefore, Okamura simply copied the forward firing method of the French artillery during the Allied Breakthrough Operation in 1918. Of course, the Japanese army would not give up the opportunity to use poison gas. Their chimneys would release large amounts of tear-jerking and sneezing smoke.
After organizing large-scale artillery and chemical units, the Eleventh Army began to worry about whether the troops would have joint combat capabilities under large-scale mixed formations, so under the supervision of Commander Imamura of the Inaba Division, they made a rifle smoke
Live-fire joint exercise. The Japanese army seized civilian houses as gas chambers and strictly trained soldiers on the combat capabilities and operating skills of wearing gas masks.
Before attacking Nanchang, the Japanese army found that the defenders' positions along the Xiushui River gave full play to their geographical advantages. They built a defense line on a gentle slope close to the river bank and limited the Japanese army's frontal attack to an area of more than ten kilometers surrounded by Poyang Lake and steep mountains.
Narrow area.
To break through such a line of defense, tanks and heavy artillery were the most effective. So Okamura Neiji prepared to use a super-large-scale artillery bombardment to blast a gap in the Yongxiu area.
Then, led by the Ishii chariot convoy, the two infantry divisions directly rushed 120 kilometers to Fengxin. After resting, they rushed 130 kilometers to Nanchang. After everything was ready, Okamura Neji ordered the troops to take the lead.
The attack began on March 17.
On March 17, the Japanese Saito Division, with the Murai Battalion as the vanguard, advanced towards the 79th Army's defense line in Xia Chuzhong from the Xiushui Branch east of Yongxiu. The 721st Regiment of the defending army resisted bravely and repelled the Murai Battalion's attack.
Raid.
On March 18, the Japanese Nakai Division and Saito Division between Zhanggongdu and Yongxiu began shelling positions on the south bank of Xiushui.
At the same time, one Japanese division from each of the two divisions sailed south from Xingzi on warships and motorboats to attack Wucheng Town. Then shallow-water gunboats and seaplanes were deployed to bombard Wucheng. At night, the Murai Brigade attacked again with all its strength, and the defenders 141st
The division violently fired at the Japanese motorboats in the water. The Japanese troops were severely beaten in the dark night, and the assault plan failed.
Luo Zhuoying ordered the main force of the 142nd Division to stick to Tujiabu, echoing the Xiushui front of Song Kentang's 32nd Army, and transferred the 98th Division to Wucheng Town to strengthen defense. Luo Zhuoying then detached the 717th Regiment from the 139th Division
As a reserve force, we strictly guard against large-scale landings by Japanese troops.
However, the Japanese army still tried to force a landing, and Song Kentang's army and other troops fought tenaciously. The fierce fighting continued until the 19th, but the Japanese attack still failed.
On the afternoon of March 20, Okamura Ningji came to Junshan behind the 6th Artillery Brigade position to supervise the artillery breakthrough operations.
At 4:30 p.m., the Japanese army raised an observation balloon. The artillery force assembled a total of 230 light and heavy artillery pieces. Under the guidance of the balloon, they bombarded the defenders' positions with all their strength without warning. This was the most intensive artillery attack by the Japanese army since the war began.
The Guanyin Mountain position by the Shuihe River was immediately shrouded in smoke and turned into a hell on earth.
The 76th Division of the Xia-Chu Central Army and the Wang Tiehan Division of the Northeastern Army were stunned by the bombardment, and all their fortifications were destroyed. Communication between the troops was interrupted, and neither Liu Duoquan nor Li Quan knew the actual situation on the front line.
