In the next seven days, Tang Dao was extremely busy.
First, he led the four-pronged regiment to the "Dakouzi" cave station that he had transferred from the 921 Division at a great cost. The place was exactly as he imagined. At a glance, the most numerous things were stones.
The rugged mountain road area is so narrow that even a cart with a width of less than 1.6 meters is difficult to pass in many places, so that the officers and soldiers had to unload the materials from the cart and carry them through the dangerous mountain road with pure manpower, and then use the cart to
transportation.
Undoubtedly, this greatly delayed the difficulty of marching!
This also indirectly explains the basic reason why in time and space, the Japanese army dispatched 5,000 troops in a nearly sneak attack. Before the main force of the 921st Division returned, they were still defeated by the defense group with only one-half of its strength.
The terrain here is really easy to defend and difficult to attack! Even if the Japanese army has aircraft to assist, according to Tang Dao's judgment, standing on the top of the stone peak and looking into the distance, heavy aerial bombs will not be able to do much against this stone mountain with crisscrossed ravines.
What's more, from the perspective of Tang Dao, a future little butterfly, this land is not just the miraculous workmanship of nature that has given it natural defense. With Brigadier Cheng's precedent of tunnel fighting in the Icefield War, Tang Dao has already done so.
According to the plan, Bai Sheng's engineer company will expand into the largest company-level force in the entire Si Xing Regiment within the next year.
Of course, except for the formal establishment of more than 200 people, the others are all reserve forces. They are selected from the local mountain people. They do not have to go to the front line to carry guns. They only have to work hard and receive corresponding rewards. It should not be difficult for such a young and strong man to do so.
trick.
In addition, during the two days when the Si Xing Regiment was waiting for contact between Tang Dao and the 683 Brigade, the families of the 500 recruits recruited from Xuzhou also rushed outside the mountain. Except for a few stragglers, more than 90% arrived before
In the predetermined area, Zhuang Shisan specially sent a guard company and some recruits to take them into Taihang Mountain.
Even though most of these family members are old people, children and women, who are considered a burden by many people, only Tang Dao knows that there will be at least five factories around Dakouzi Cave. In addition to a small number of skilled workers, there is a shortage of
It's a general worker.
Women will become the most important part of these general workers, and the elderly can take good care of their children at home and do housework to the best of their ability. The children will eventually grow up safely.
This war will last much longer than the most optimistic soldiers expected!
They can not only exchange their labor for wages and survive in this troubled world, but also use their own hands to make bullets that can be fired at the Japanese invaders, and they can also raise China's future. This is three birds with one stone.
Not to mention the two thousand old, weak, women and children, Tang Dao even thought about sending foreign personnel out to absorb the displaced refugees when the station gradually stabilized, thereby increasing the population around the station.
These refugees do not compete with local mountain people for land and food. They rely on work to support themselves and their entire families.
Of course, if this is the case, it will be necessary to increase the number of factories in the area and their profits will be guaranteed. In this way, a virtuous cycle will be formed.
Tang Dao has no control over other places, but in this barren mountain, an industrial zone can initially be formed that relies on light industry and machinery industry to support everyone.
This industrial zone can not only continuously export clothing, arms and other products to the Chinese military and civilians throughout the north, but also support a group of workers who rely on labor to support themselves, without being so thirsty for land and gradually abandoning purely agricultural life needs.
Tang Dao's idea is beautiful, but it is not so easy to implement. First of all, the geographical environment here is really bad. It is difficult to transport materials in, and it is equally difficult to transport them out. This terrain, in a peaceful era, would be like a cliff.
This is an area that capital doesn’t take a serious look at.
But everything has two sides. In peacetime, this is a place where nothing can happen, but in wartime, capital, the blood-sucking insect, considers the first priority is how to survive. The place where the flames of war cannot burn is paradise.
What? The mountains are high and the roads are dangerous and difficult to walk? That’s not a problem. Isn’t it just paying people to hire donkeys to carry the bags on their shoulders?
As long as the Japanese cannot break in, the capitalists can tell you for ten thousand reasons that this place is much better than Jiangnan.
Second, of course, is profit! No capitalist will do business at a loss, otherwise he would rather die. No matter how patriotic he is, the nature of capitalists pursuing profit will not change.
Tang Dao can support it for a while just by drawing big cakes, but it will never last long. If you want to form a virtuous circle, you can only help them find the market. Then there need to be successful examples. Fortunately, those who were fooled by Tang Dao were confused.
Lao Jia and others are already taking action. A large number of machinery and equipment have already begun to be transferred to the Western Province before the departure of the Four Troops. As long as the situation in Tangdao stabilizes, at least two factories will be transferred from the Western Province.
Enter Jindong.
The other most important point is how Tang Dao can ensure the safety of the Four Elements Regiment.
This is actually the simplest and easiest thing to do for Tang Dao.
Fists are the best proof!
Of course, that was a fist aimed at the Japanese invaders!
This is the first battle in Jindong. Tang Dao tells the capitalists who are still watching that not only does Jindong have him, but there are also the brave and capable 921 Division, the Japanese invaders with aircraft and heavy artillery, and perhaps I will also fight on the plains.
Not sure about them, but in this big mountain, it is the Chinese who have the final say.
Letting you occupy the county seat and letting you hoard supplies is just to lend you a place. After a while, I will ask you to collect rent. The rent is the lives and supplies of the Japanese.
In fact, for a long time before that old man in Gangcun became the commander of the Japanese North China Front, the three infantry divisions of the Eightyth Group Army active in the mountainous areas did exactly this.
It's just that they are not as domineering as Tang Dao said, treating the county town as a rented warehouse. After all, they lack artillery, and it is difficult to consider tactics such as attacking fortifications for the time being. Their main goal is to attack and destroy transportation lines.
As long as it is materials, they must be transported, and if they are to be transported, there must be roads. Very simple logic!
The Japanese troops who were afraid of being attacked would often use heavy troops to escort them, but if they could only be thieves for a thousand days, how could they prevent thieves for a thousand days? They were transported ten times, or even twenty times. I only attacked once, which was like a hard kick to the Japanese army.
Isn't it Dandanshang?
As for the Japanese's plans and routes for transporting supplies, why are most of them well known to their opponents? This is probably a stubborn problem that even the Japanese themselves cannot solve.
Really, there are too many traitors!
Yes, in order to survive, there shouldn’t be too many traitors who take the initiative to bend down and offer their knees, lick their pens and call Taijun.
Post-war records show that during the entire Anti-Japanese War, the Chinese Anti-Japanese Army annihilated nearly 1.28 million puppet troops. When Japan surrendered, there were approximately 1.46 million puppet troops and more than 400,000 puppet police. In addition to the national army and police of the puppet Manchukuo, during the Anti-Japanese War
At that time, the total number of traitors serving Japan could be said to be over 3 million, which was more than the total number of Japanese invaders in China.
These traitors who have forgotten their ancestors have brought shame to the Chinese people and become China's shame! They have also added huge obstacles to China's Patriotic War. No matter how powerful they are in fighting, they are not a bunch of pigs. Even if they are pigs, they still kill them.
Kicking and biting, right?
But as the old saying goes, everything has two sides. While the Japanese army used a large number of traitors to maintain their rule over the occupied areas, they had to accept the fact that these traitors who did not want Bilian at all were very likely to confront them during the day.
If you flatter him and call him "Taijun", he might talk about the little devil in the evening. Then he can feel at ease and take a roll of money and sell the devil to the prince.
The ratio does not need to be too large. As long as there is 1%, the Japanese will have been sold out. That is to say, the status of most traitors will not be very high. Otherwise, the commander of the Japanese North China Front would just change his crotchless pants in the morning.
That's where you'll know if there are any holes in your crotch pants.
What's more, facing such a large number of traitors who have taken refuge in themselves, how can the Japanese distinguish which ones are true and which are false?
This also resulted in that throughout the Great Patriotic War, the Japanese had to fight the Chinese army from the front, and at the same time spend a lot of energy competing with almost all Chinese in the occupied areas. Overt and covert battles were everywhere.
Of course, not to mention the hundreds of millions of Chinese and pugs in the occupied areas, who can turn a person's head into a pig's head when screened, are the Japanese themselves really that trustworthy?
The Japanese have never been monolithic. It is true that the majority support the war, but after all, there are also those who do not support the war and believe that launching this war will drag the island nation into an abyss.
So, you know, it's completely impossible.
Although countless Chinese people paid their lives in this invisible war, every piece of information they sent out would also cost the Japanese people blood!
This is the Patriotic War. Every minute and every second, lives are lost, and both China and Japan are injured!
However, the war has begun, and it will not end unless one side falls!
Just as Tang Dao, who stood on the top of the mountain and looked into the distance, said: Jindong, we are here! 108th Division, suffer death!
The road to the station was difficult and dangerous, but what was gratifying was that before entering the station, the 47th Army, which had been contacted by the Si Xing Regiment via telegraph, sent their baggage regiment.
Yes, when he learned that the Four Lines Regiment had brought an infantry regiment with equipment thousands of miles to the east of Shanxi, the commander of the 47th Army named Li, who would later have his name engraved in the list of hundreds of famous anti-Japanese generals, was in a state of emotion at that time.
I lost control and burst into tears.
It was not that he was excited about the equipment of an infantry regiment, but that he was extremely sad.
The Battle of Dongyang Pass broke out a week ago. His infantry division faced most of the Japanese infantry brigade. He had a strength advantage, but he used only a few mortars against dozens of Japanese artillery pieces. More than 2,000 Sichuan soldiers shed blood at Dongyang Pass.
battlefield.
It doesn't need to be more, but if there are ten or even six more mortars, the number of casualties will be reduced by one-half. The four-line regiment arrived a little late.
But, what can he blame the Four Troops? The 43rd Army Military Headquarters sent a battle report. The Four Troops set off from northern Jiangsu and fought two battles against the Japanese invaders in Henan Province. They carried dozens of tons of supplies in one and a half months and had no cars.
, relying solely on manpower and pack horses, they rushed to Jin Province across two thousand miles.
This is a military order and a favor!
Although Tang Dao was just a junior colonel, the 47th Army still made an exception and sent a division-level officer to lead the baggage regiment. After communicating with the 683rd Brigade, they met with the Four Lines Regiment in their defense area and received this batch of equipment.
At that time, Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang, who came to greet me on behalf of the 863 Brigade, was so greedy that he almost wet the chest of his uniform with saliva.
Since Commander Guo has already communicated with the 47th Army, the two sides have reached a tacit understanding. The Fourth Army Regiment will not return to the construction for the time being and will stay in eastern Shanxi to fight. It is nominally under the jurisdiction of the 47th Army. The 'Transportation Group' and the baggage regiment that came to receive it are considered to belong to the same army.
, plus there are quite a few Sichuan troops in the Si Xing Regiment. Even if the accents of eastern Sichuan and northern Sichuan are slightly different, the familiar accent will naturally increase the familiarity.
The division-level officer of the 47th Army did not put on airs in front of Tang Dao, a 'subordinate' who was two levels lower. Instead, he enthusiastically invited Tang Dao and the Sixings Group to the defense area where the 47th Army was located, and specially selected a few places.
Good location.
And through the statement of this division-level officer, although he did not draw a direct conclusion, it generally means that as long as Tang Dao is willing to go, regardless of whether the superiors agree or not, the position of a brigade-level unit commander has been reserved for Tang Dao.
In order to give Shangfeng some face, the military rank can be temporarily unchanged, but the change from three stars to one star will never take more than two years.
Tang Dao naturally knew that this must be the decision of the commander surnamed Li. No one could refuse a strong general like Tang Dao and an elite like the Four Elements Group.
From a school officer to a general officer, there is only one step away, but for 95% of the school officers, this step is a natural chasm that will be difficult to overcome in their lifetime.
Even people like Commander Guo didn't dare to tell Tang Dao a clear time like this one. You can imagine the difficulty.
But this man dares to say that he naturally has his confidence. After the main force of the 22nd Army rushed to Xuzhou, the 47th Army that stayed in eastern Shanxi was actually the main force of the Sichuan Army in the northern battlefield. Since the death of the King of Sichuan Province surnamed Liu years ago, the 47th Army was behind
The elder immediately became a prominent figure in Sichuan Province.
In fact, this person's confidence is not without reason. In the past time and space, the commander of the 22nd Army will return to Sichuan Province soon and ascend the throne of Chairman of Sichuan Province, and this person will also be promoted to the Army Group in a year's time
Commander, with such a background, trying to ensure Tang Dao's promotion is definitely not an empty promise!
If you want to say that Tang Dao was not tempted at that moment, that is impossible.
It is not because his military rank will be qualitatively improved and he will become a general who can return home in glory, but because he can lead more troops to fight the Japanese invaders in an honest and fair manner.
Can the number of Japanese troops killed be the same between commanding 2,000 men and commanding 6,000 men?
But Tang Dao finally resisted the sudden temptation!
The 47th Army and their commanders indeed proved their determination to resist Japan in the future, which was another glory for the Sichuan Army.
However, they are still someone's pawns after all, and it won't be long before they go to the battlefield in the Central Plains.
The reason why Tang Dao came to the northern battlefield was that he no longer wanted to be someone's chess piece that could be used casually. He wanted to lead his army and fight with the 921st Division to create his own piece of heaven in this mountain.
With the strength of a mere regiment, he cannot save more people, but if he can work together with that army, he can protect this mountain that stretches more than 400 kilometers across the motherland and divides the east and west.
Even, in the future, their tentacles may extend further north.
The superior terrain here allows us to retreat, defend, and attack. It is like putting a knife in front of the Japanese North China Front, ready to stab them at any time.
Want to fight? Come here! Come here and hit me! When Tang Dao thinks of this, it’s hard not to see Mou Teng’s mean expression in front of his eyes!
Staying on Taihang and blatantly showing off the appearance of "They want to kill me, but they can't!" will definitely make the Japanese heartbroken to death.
Of course, the most important reason for this, the division-level officer who was extremely disappointed because of Tang Dao's rejection three seconds later, never imagined that it was not that the thighs of his 47th Army were not thick enough, but that the thighs of the 80th Army were thicker.
Perhaps even the 80th Group Army themselves did not realize it at this moment. In a few years, not to mention one group army, not even ten group armies would be able to accommodate it!
But no one dares to blame Tang Dao, because Tang Dao also has enough confidence. The equipment of the infantry regiment sent across thousands of miles is not so much a supplement as a gift from the 43rd Army. If not replaced with anything else, just four
The independence of the group.
The two elders have already agreed that the leadership is only nominal. All military operations of the Fourth Army Group only need to be reported to the military headquarters. The autonomy lies with them, and the required military pay will be raised by themselves, without the 47th Army having to worry about it.
To put it bluntly, the so-called subordinate relationship is only for the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs to see.
In the view of the commander surnamed Li, this is normal. Eastern Sichuan and Northern Sichuan have always been at odds with each other. Since they want to get a share of the northern battlefield, they secretly resorted to this trick, and they would easily defeat an infantryman.
Giving the Corps to yourself and recruiting it are just efforts, and it is normal to not get it.
Since it could not truly become a system, the division-level officer did not bother much, received the equipment and left. He made no other contribution, but it reduced a lot of the burden on the Four Lines Regiment.
Of course, Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang's saliva was not in vain. The equipment promised to the 683 Brigade was delivered the next day. It was signed by Director Wang of the 683 Brigade and the 772 Regiment was responsible for receiving it.
Good guy, Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang wiped his saliva with his backhand and waved at the director of the political office of his regiment. Within an hour, more than a thousand people from two infantry battalions arrived running.
It was obviously well prepared. If Tang Dao dared to break his promise, these more than a thousand people...
I had to come to the Four-Hinges Group for dinner. Judging from their appetite, just eating white rice would probably give Chief of Staff Zhuang Da a headache for several days.
But just like this, people come all the way to carry supplies, why can’t the Four-Hong Group help people solve their food and clothing problems?
Without further ado, I want two pancakes per person!
Anyway, with Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang's face, even a single meal would be small. If the reception is slower, the two infantry battalions of the 772nd Regiment can feed each other for a day. Tang Dao Jubi believes it.
In just two days, the "heavy transport group" of the Si Xing Group was completely transformed into a light group. Otherwise, how could it be so "easy" to go to the new station?
But what! Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang is thick-skinned, but he keeps his promise. On the second day after the Si Xing Regiment arrived at Dakouzi Cave, in addition to leaving the necessary defensive troops, he took two infantrymen from the 772 Regiment.
The 2,000 militiamen mobilized by the battalion and the organization rushed over carrying thick trees.
That is to say, no one asked for any compensation for taking care of the food. Including the 3,000 members of the Si Xing Tuan and 2,000 family members, there were a total of seven to eight thousand people working on the temporary construction of the Si Xing Tuan residence.
Sleeping in the mountains is a daily routine for soldiers, but it cannot continue like this for a long time. Not to mention that the human body is either made of steel or made of steel. If not properly maintained, it can also be corroded.
If you want to maintain combat effectiveness, you must do a good job in logistics!
In five days, a large number of wooden houses and stone houses, including the dangerous checkpoint fortifications around the station, were all built!
Tang Dao, after bidding farewell to the officers, soldiers and militiamen of the 772nd Regiment who came to help, held a military meeting of officers above the company level of the Fourth Regiment.
Meeting topic: Send troops to Licheng!
