In June and July of 1940, we suffered successive defeats on the anti-fascist battlefield.
On the European battlefield, the German army captured France, the British and French forces staged the Dunkirk evacuation, and Marshal Pétain's Vichy government was established.
On the Chinese battlefield, Yichang was lost, and the main force of the Fifth War Zone suffered heavy losses. Immediately afterwards, the main force of the Japanese army in North China launched a frantic raid on the base areas in southern Hebei and Shandong. The Central and South Shandong area, the strongest base of the Shandong Eighth Route Army, was occupied by the Japanese army. Immediately, the Hebei-Shandong border area
, Luxi, Qinghe, Jiaolai, and Jiaodong were successively occupied by the Japanese army.
While the Japanese army was sweeping through Shandong, the Japanese army stationed in Mongolia mobilized the main force of the 26th Division and three mixed brigades, the puppet Mongolian army, to launch a large-scale sweep of the base areas in northwestern Shanxi.
The situation in China's Anti-Japanese War suddenly became extremely serious.
Lieutenant General Tada Shun, commander of the North China Front, held a press conference to announce the results of the Japanese army. He also said realistically that the North China security war was far from achieving its expected goals. The imperial army was not able to capture and eliminate the main force of the Shandong Eighth Route Army. On the contrary, Tubal Road
They used tunnel fortifications to continuously attack the imperial army and the appeasement army, and wantonly undermined the public order in North China.
As for how to fight the next public security war in Shandong, Tada Shun made it very clear. First, use heavy military groups to repeatedly crush and sweep away. No area will be spared. The Eighth Route Army Liu Yimin, who is the cancer in North China's public security, must be forced out of the mountains and tunnels.
come out and eliminate them, completely solve the public security problems in North China, restore the public security order in North China, and build the paradise of the Imperial Road in North China. Second, strictly implement the good citizen certificate system of household registration management, implement the Baojia and Sitting Law, and if one person shares the commonwealth, the whole family will be shot; if one household shares the commonwealth,
The whole village was shot. The third was to speed up the construction of the Dezhou-Shijiazhuang Railway, the Taizhou-Zhao Railway and the backbone highways. Use railways and highways to connect Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong and Henan into one. This will not only facilitate the imperial army to mobilize troops to eliminate the Eighth Route Army, but also facilitate the people's travel and
Commodity circulation.
After Tada Shun finished speaking, Yoshizumi Ryosuke, the chief of staff of the Japanese North China Front, murderously re-announced the reward for prisoners who killed the Eighth Route Army generals. This time, because the Japanese army apparently occupied all parts of Shandong, Liu Yimin's market was bearish, and the Japanese reward was reduced from 2 million oceans.
Dropped to 200,000 joint coupons.
Wang Kemin, Chairman of the Puppet North China Government Affairs Committee, read out the announcement at the press conference to expand the North China Appeasement Army by drawing cadres. The announcement stated that in order to cooperate with the imperial army to eliminate the Eighth Route Army and consolidate public security in North China, it was decided to expand the appeasement force by drawing one from every 2 men.
Military strength. In other words, if there are two brothers in a family, one of them must be chosen to be a puppet soldier.
The moves Tada Shun and Wang Kemin used are very vicious. If they are allowed to come true, there will be no place for the Eighth Route Army in North China!
Japanese newspapers and radio stations also started to make noises.
The newspapers and radio stations run by the Japanese were shouting the slogan "Attack Kunming from the south, Chongqing from the center, and Xi'an from the north", advising Chiang Kai-shek's Chongqing National Government to abandon their illusions and surrender as soon as possible.
The "Zhongbao", "Nanjing News" and other newspapers published in Nanjing, where Wang's puppet government is located, and the "North China Daily", New Beiping News and other newspapers in Peiping published articles by Wang Jingwei, Chen Gongbo, Zhou Fohai, Liang Hongzhi, and Wang Kemin one after another.
Broadcast the radio speeches of the traitors, advocating peace to save the country, calling on the Chongqing National Government and Kuomintang officials to report to Nanjing, urging the Kuomintang troops to stop resisting and accept the orders of the Nanjing Wang Puppet Government.
The most typical one is the traitor newspaper in Peiping. Perhaps they felt that the Eighth Route Army was at the end of their rope and no longer feared that the Eighth Route Army would kill them. They started to act crazy again and published articles one after another. They published battle reports on the Japanese and puppet troops every day and distributed them.
The pictures and comments advocated the bravery of the Japanese army and the advanced level of weapons and equipment, and once again began to slander the Eighth Route Army for robbing property in Shandong and coercing the people to oppose Japan.
Not to mention, under such high pressure from the Japanese army, the unsteady elements wavered. Some dissatisfied Kuomintang officials who were sitting on the bench in Chongqing and some officials who persisted in guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines began to run to Nanjing, hoping that Wang Jingwei could throw a few sticks at them.
After chewing the remaining bones, Wang Puppet's military department also began to vigorously expand its troops and induce them to surrender the motley crew that persisted in guerrilla operations behind enemy lines.
The situation in Shandong is also complicated. Some local armed forces that were not reorganized by the Eighth Route Army, such as Cai Jinkang and Wang Shangzhi, openly surrendered to the enemy, including Zhang Jingyue and Zhang Tianzuo, who had secretly flirted with the Japanese army in history. Only Liu Jingliang was captured after the troops were dispersed.
The Japanese army captured him, and he was captured again after escaping, and died heroically. At this point, almost all the armed forces of the Kuomintang in Shandong where it was more powerful surrendered to the enemy. Only a few armed groups from Shandong led by Li Xianliang entered Laoshan and continued to fight.
A light illuminated the head of a young and handsome soldier who was hunched over his desk and writing furiously on the window paper.
Maybe he was too tired after a long time. The young soldier stood up, stretched his body, turned around and shouted: "Political Commissar, Lao Cai, come here and have a drink of tea!"
Luo Ronghuan's honest voice came from the opposite side: "Commander, I still have two lines to finish!"
After a while, Luo Ronghuan and Cai Zhong came over carrying empty tea jars.
This is Duozhuang in Laiwu. The young and handsome soldier quickly robbed Liu Yimin, the secretary of the Shandong Bureau and the commander of the Shandong Military Region. At this moment, he led the main force to jump out of the gap in the Japanese army's sweep and hid in the Duozhuang area in the northwest of Laiwu.
They are staring at Jinan City with eager eyes!
When Cai Zhong walked in, he saw that Liu Yimin's teapot on the table was empty. Is there any water anywhere?
Cai Zhong shouted toward the door: "Li Xiaoshuai, pour some water!"
It was not Li Xiaoshuai who came in to pour water, but Tang Xingying and Zhao Xiaoman. The two women each carried a kettle and took the two teapots, walked in one after the other, saluted Luo Ronghuan and Cai Zhong,
Pour some water and walk out.
Luo Ronghuan held a teapot and said while drinking: "Commander, turn on the radio and contact the central government and headquarters. The leaders have no news about us, so I don't know how worried they are!"
Liu Yimin took a sip of water, put down the teapot, took out two cigarettes from the cigarette case on the table, threw one to Cai Zhong, lit one himself, took a nice puff, and then said: "No hurry,
The Japs are now like mad dogs, eager to capture our radio signals. The signal in mountainous areas is poor, and low-power radios will not work. As soon as the high-power radio is turned on, the Japs will target us, and our position will be exposed. The Japs may even
Take off a reconnaissance plane at night to lock our radio signal and location. Tomorrow morning, we are waiting to be bombed by the little devil! The tragedy of General Zhang Zizhong cannot be repeated here!"
The main reason why the Shandong Military Region Headquarters was able to stay in Dadian for so long was that the Eighth Route Army used a 20-watt low-power radio to send messages, which could not be detected by the Japs.
Luo Ronghuan said slowly: "Commander, we have to take action. The Japs are burning, killing and looting in the base area. The losses of our local cadres, local armed forces and militia must be huge. I am afraid many people must be sacrificed every day. Just for the summer harvest."
The little devils shot away a lot of food. This year, the fellow villagers in the base area suffered a lot, and we have to tighten our belts and live a hard life."
Luo Ronghuan was telling the truth. Liu Yimin had never thought that the Japanese army would form three tank divisions in advance and send them to the Shandong battlefield at once. The three tank divisions, plus the mechanized second division,
It was a torrent of steel. To use light infantry to resist the torrent of steel of the Japs was to seek death. Liu Yimin would not do that stupid thing!
According to Liu Yimin's original idea, the Japs would not be allowed to step into Central and South Shandong again. Now it seems that he underestimated the Japs' determination to eliminate the main force of the Shandong Eighth Route Army. If it had not been for the tunnel network that had been formed in various base areas in Shandong, this time the massacre would have been impossible.
I don’t know how much the losses will be during the raids! It may be like the May Day raids launched by the Japanese army against Jizhong in history. The main force was driven out of the Jizhong base area and the casualties were extremely heavy.
Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan had tried several times to organize the main force to annihilate the Japanese army. However, the Japs were highly vigilant. If there was any disturbance at night, they would turn on their headlights, tank guns, and artillery to fight back violently. As soon as daybreak, the Japs' planes would arrive.
It started to wander around in the sky and dropped bombs when it found suspicious targets. Our army was simply unable to organize a large-scale campaign.
The most depressing thing is that Shandong is incomparable with the Jianghan Plain. It has been dry since spring, it rarely rains, and Japanese planes fly out suspiciously and unscrupulously.
Liu Yimin took another puff of cigarette and said calmly: "No rush, we have to wait for the Japanese tank division, the second division, and the seventh division to return to the northeast before we can start. Even if three tank divisions return and two
, we can take action. Otherwise, as soon as the main force is exposed, the three tank divisions of the Japanese army will surround them, which would be a joke. What are you afraid of? The little devils will just rob Shandong of all the food, and they will not be able to do it in a short while.
If you can’t finish it, put it in the warehouse and we’ll just go back and get it back.”
Cai Zhong said worriedly: "Commander, political commissar, Chen Dayong, Zhao Shan, Xu Shiyou, they don't know what's going on now. It's better to get in touch. We must not let the Japanese armored group surround us."
The reason why the Japanese armored group hurriedly left Central South Shandong and rushed towards Jiao Lai and Jiaodong after opening the Taiwei Highway was because Chen Dayong commanded three main columns to launch an offensive against the Japanese 28th Division in Jiaodong.
The beating hurt the little Japanese, forcing the Japanese armored group to rush out for reinforcements.
Luo Ronghuan said: "Don't be afraid of that. Chen Dayong, Zhao Shan, and Xu Shiyou were all beaten in the flames of war. Our army does not stick to any point. The tunnels in the Jiaodong base area are complete, and the Kunyu Mountains can offset the Japanese army's armor advantage. The little devil can take advantage of it."
Chen Dayong and the others can't do anything. I'm worried about the Hebei-Shandong border area and the western Shandong area. They are all great plains, and apart from tunnels, there is no danger."
What Liu Yimin was most afraid of was the Hebei-Shandong border and Western Shandong, especially the Hebei-Shandong border. In addition to the Japanese railway and highway blockades, it was bounded by the sea to the east and the Yellow River to the south. It was basically a dead zone. Historically, the Japanese army had attacked the Hebei-Shandong border.
After the large-scale mopping up, the main force of our army on the Hebei-Shandong border had to withdraw to Western Shandong and Qinghe.
Liu Yimin threw down his cigarette butt and said: "Find Qian Zhuangying and Li Qiang to work out a way to contact the central government, headquarters and various units in the next few days to understand the enemy's situation and see if the Japanese armored group has withdrawn."
