"What does Zhao Zhi want to do?" Yang Dezhi's face was filled with anger. He rushed to help in the battle, but Zhao Zhi arranged the troops he brought with him on the outer defense line of Texas to sweep away small fish and shrimps. That's not all, Yao
Lao Yu, a bandit-turned-guy, actually became Zhao Zhi's guest. When he left, Zhao Zhi gave Yao Lao Yu a variety of weapons and ammunition, which made all Yang Dezhi's men salivate.
"I heard that when Zhao Zhi fought against the Japanese army in Shanxi, Yao Laoyu was the first person to respond. The relationship between Zhao Zhi and him is naturally unusual. It seems that Yao Laoyu was recruited by the Kuomintang and it was Zhao Zhi who pulled the string.
Otherwise, Yao Laoyu would have become a major general." Yang Dezhi is not the only one who is sour. At least there are many people under Yang Dezhi who think this way.
"That's not what I'm talking about." Yang Dezhi glared, looking a little breathtaking, "I mean Zhao Zhiguang is just surrounding Dezhou, but he doesn't have any momentum to attack. Is he holding back something bad?"
There was also a large map on the table in front of Yang Dezhi. He originally hung the map on the wall, but after going to Zhao Zhi's headquarters, he changed to the habit of laying the map flat on the table, using his
In my own words, I can see clearly and carefully.
Zhao Zhi's use of troops has always been traceable. This had been discussed many times by the staff of the Eighth Route Army headquarters when he was in Shanxi. Yang Dezhi had realized that this time the siege of Texas would not be too simple, but he just couldn't think of it.
What is Zhao Zhi planning, or what is Zhao Zhi trying to do around Dezhou? Yang Dezhi is not sure whether to capture Dezhou or not. What is Zhao Zhi doing with so many troops surrounding Dezhou? Yang Dezhi throws down his hands.
He planned to go directly to Zhao Zhi to find out more about the pencil he had picked up.
"What? You said Zhao Zhi is not here in Dezhou?" Yang Dezhi was confused by the other party's answer. The encirclement on the Dezhou side had been completed, but Zhao Zhi, who was commanding the battle, was told that he had left. What was the situation?
The thought that had been flashing in Yang Dezhi's mind was suddenly confirmed, making Yang Dezhi panic for no reason. Zhao Zhi ran away, leaving this mess behind. "*** Zhao Zhi, has the same virtue as the Kuomintang white dog, we
Also withdraw." Yang Dezhi left angrily, but did not notice the look in the eyes of the mercenary who just answered his question.
Yang Dezhi didn't know about Zhao Zhi's plan to advance eastward. He instinctively thought that Zhao Zhi, like the KMT officers, realized that the momentum was not right and got wet. Moreover, the mercenary who received him did not say that Zhao Zhi was going now.
Shang He. "Impossible, Zhao Zhi would never leave his troops and run away like this." The news was passed back to the Eighth Route Army headquarters. Peng Dehuai was the first person who did not believe that Zhao Zhi would deserter. Several other senior commanders also disagreed with Yang Dezhi.
The plan to withdraw troops, after all, Thunder did not respond to the matter, so they left like this, and the chance to repair the relationship with Zhao Zhi was gone.
"Since Zhao Zhi appeared in Shanxi, have you ever seen him leave his troops and run away?" Peng Dehuai's reason is simple. Zhao Zhi is different from those Japanese commanders. Thunder is the foundation of Zhao Zhi.
Thunder and Zhao Zhi are naturally nothing, so it is impossible for Zhao Zhi to leave so many Thunder troops in Texas and ignore them. If he had to explain the reason, Peng Dehuai could only say that Zhao Zhi must be planning some major operation.
This must be why he left Texas.
Over the matter of Zhao Zhi's unexplained disappearance from Texas, the Eighth Route Army headquarters argued for a whole day, and finally had to report the matter to Yan'an. The senior government officials in Yan'an had no clue about the matter. If they were not in charge of intelligence work,
Li Kenong received the latest intelligence from the Kuomintang-controlled area, and a big debate might break out in the cave dwellings of Yan'an. "You mean Zhao Zhi went to Shanghe?" I have to say that the Communist Party's ability to obtain intelligence is not limited, even
There are also high-ranking intelligence agents lurking among the top brass of the military command, and Zhao Zhi's intelligence on Shanghe was analyzed by them from the military commander's daily intelligence calls.
Shanghe County is a small county located in the center of Dezhou, Binzhou, and Jinan. The top brass in the cave dwellings didn't understand why Zhao Zhi went to Shanghe. However, since Zhao Zhi went to Shanghe secretly, this
There must be some truth in it. Dezhou was besieged, and Thunder troops were attacking in Binzhou and Jinan. Could it be that Zhao Zhi went to Shanghe just to better direct the attacks in these three places? Zhao Zhi did not respond to this matter.
**It was difficult to judge Zhao Zhi's true intention for a while, but everyone in the cave had an idea that Zhao Zhi was not a simple person.
"Inform Yang Dezhi immediately. We must not withdraw our troops. At least we must stay on the outskirts of Texas until Lei Lei explains the matter. We still have to do what we need to do. We cannot passively slow down work just because Zhao Zhi leaves. Fighting the Japanese is also the responsibility of our communists.
." There were cigarette butts all over the floor in the cave, and Mao Zedong finally made the decision. Not only was Yang Dezhi's troops retreating from Dezhou, he also ordered the Eighth Route Army headquarters to continue sending additional troops to support the Shandong war.
"It seems that our little friend wants to fight a big war. Since it is not convenient for people to reveal the inside story to us now, then we should take the initiative to get closer and don't wait for people to come to invite us. This is not good and makes us look like ***
Narrow-minded." After carefully reading the information Li Kenong brought, ** looked at the map on the wall for a long time. Ordering the Eighth Route Army to deploy troops to support the Shandong war was something he had considered for a long time. There was no trace of the Japanese and puppet troops in Shanxi.
Although the base areas controlled by the Eighth Route Army have expanded rapidly, the situation is not optimistic.
Hebei has been turned into a pot of porridge by Zhao Zhi, but the battle report sent back last time made *** feel like a big stone is weighing on his heart. They are also guerrilla tactics, but the number of casualties on the Kuomintang guerrilla side is less than on his own side.
Henan has basically been snatched back from the Japanese army. If Shandong falls into the hands of the Kuomintang again, the Eighth Route Army in northern Shaanxi and Shanxi will lose the opportunity to go out. Once the Kuomintang drives out the Japanese army with the help of Zhao Zhi, Chiang Kai-shek
They will definitely turn around and deal with the Eighth Route Army. By then, the country's life will definitely not be easy.
Even if the Eighth Route Army retreats to northern Shaanxi and confronts the Kuomintang, Chiang Kai-shek can deal with the Kuomintang forces scattered in various places at any time. When the Kuomintang forces become dominant, the Long March of that year seems to have to happen again. Although now
The Eighth Route Army is no longer the Red Army with crude weapons and equipment, but the Communist Party of China is no longer the Communist Party of the past. The Communist Party of China that fought with the Japanese army for several years is no longer the Central Army of the past. The weapons and equipment are sophisticated enough to compete with the Japanese army.
A comparable situation, not to mention that Chiang Kai-shek had Zhao Zhi beside him.
Prepare for a rainy day, these are the four words that have always flashed in my mind. For the future development of the country, the Eighth Route Army must go out. Living in Shanxi will only make the Eighth Route Army content with the status quo, and Chiang Kai-shek, who is free, will also
It will not leave space and time for the Eighth Route Army to continue to survive. Taking the initiative to show goodwill is the sincerity shown by the Communist Party to Zhao Zhi. Regardless of whether Zhao Zhi has reached any agreement with the Kuomintang in private, approaching him and taking the initiative to show goodwill is ** now
The only thing that can be done is that based on the research and understanding of Zhao Zhi, ** believes that Zhao Zhi is not hostile to **, at least not now.
"The Eighth Route Army has begun to increase its troops to Dezhou." Regarding this news, Zhao Zhi, who had already left Shanghe and moved to the outskirts of Weifang, did not feel anything wrong. He knew that the Communists could not just live in northern Shaanxi. Between them and the Kuomintang
Sooner or later there will be a battle. It is definitely a wise move to bring the Eighth Route Army into Shandong through the siege of Dezhou. If it were Zhao Zhi who commanded the Eighth Route Army troops, he would do the same. Once the National Government takes control of Shandong
, the Eighth Route Army would be surrounded by the anti-Japanese troops from Shandong, Hebei, and Henan and lose space to maneuver in Shanxi.
After learning that the Eighth Route Army only sent two more regiments to the outskirts of Dezhou, Zhao Zhi just laughed it off. The Eighth Route Army wanted to leave Shanxi, but did not want to send a large number of troops to Shanxi. There is no such thing in the world as wanting to gain benefits for both sides. "
Ignore them, the layout of Dezhou remains unchanged. Once it is discovered that the Kwantung Army may pass through Dezhou, all troops will immediately move to Binzhou and make tactical evasive actions to prevent the Japanese army and the Eighth Route Army from discovering our true intentions."
Zhao Zhicai didn't care what the Eighth Route Army would say about him afterwards. He only cared about whether the operation to capture Jiaodong went smoothly. By capturing Jiaodong, Lei Ting would have the possibility to survive and continue to expand. Otherwise, Lei Ting would have no choice but to return south to Myanmar and become a rich man.
There is another obvious benefit of taking Jiaodong. The Japanese army will never allow Shandong to be taken back by the Nationalist Government. They will definitely counterattack. As long as Jiaodong is still in Zhao Zhi's hands, there will be a steady stream of US aid arriving. The Nationalist Government will
It also has the capital to compete with the Japanese army, and the Japanese army fighting at home will not suffer any loss.
"Sir, are we being unjust? After all, the Eighth Route Army is here to help us." Luo Ying, who was nestled in the back seat of the jeep, frowned. The troops left by Thunder on the outskirts of Texas were all hired by Myanmar.
Army troops, these Burmese people are all rabbits. Once the Kwantung Army really approaches Texas, the only ones facing the two divisions of the Kwantung Army will be the Eighth Route Army troops. Although there has been unpleasantness between Lei Lei and the Eighth Route Army, we have to watch
The Eighth Route Army and the Kwantung Army faced each other head-on, and Luo Ying still felt a little unbearable.
"Shut up." Before Zhao Zhi could speak, Ye Kong, who was driving, yelled at Luo Ying, "Have you forgotten those Jewish soldiers who died in Taiyuan City? If they hadn't attacked according to the action plan, how could we have killed those
People. We are Thunder, and they are the Eighth Route Army. We are not in the same group, and we have no obligation to help them escape. If the Kwantung Army really makes dumplings, we can only blame them for their lack of foresight."
