Tianjin Yi means the ferry that the emperor passed by, and it originated from the Ming Dynasty Zhu Di crossed the canal south from Tianjin to launch the Jingnan Campaign. In 1860, Tianjin became one of the five major ports. During the Westernization Movement in the late Qing Dynasty, Beiyang Minister Li Hongzhang and Yuan Shikai's base camp
In Tianjin, Tianjin became a direct beneficiary of the Westernization Movement. In the 1930s, Tianjin's industry and urban construction developed rapidly. By 1937, Tianjin's trade volume had accounted for one-third of China's trade volume.
It is the largest financial, maritime, canal and trade center in North China.
On the night of December 22, Liu Yimin led a 100,000 mentors to travel a long distance after a long journey, and finally arrived at the Duliu area in Jinghai County. It was across the Duliu Alkali River and was only a few dozen miles away from the city of Tianjin.
It's right.
At this point, the teachers' leaders Luo Ronghuan, Cai Zhong, and Zeng Zhongsheng were completely relieved. Because with the strength of the teachers, even if the Japanese army discovered it at this time, it would be too late to stop the teachers from seizing Tianjin.
Along the way, the task force pretended to be the Japanese army to open the way, and 100,000 troops quietly attacked the city of Tianjin. On the one hand, the instructor did a good job in disguise, and on the other hand, the Japanese army was too arrogant.
, too careless. The emptiness in the hinterland is surprising. Many county towns have only one team stationed to defend, so of course they don’t have to check whether any Chinese troops have secretly passed by.
The performance of the Japanese army made Zeng Zhongsheng's eyes change when he looked at Liu Yimin. He thought that the division commander was so strategic. Except for him, who would have expected that the Japanese army's strength would be so weak on the North China Plain. If it weren't for occupying Tianjin, I would really want to be in North China.
There was a big fuss on the plains and smashed the Japanese jars and jars.
Zeng Zhongsheng naturally did not know the direction of future history. He thought that the Japanese army was really like Liu Yimin said, taking care of his head and not his butt, and in order to continue to attack, he stretched the front line, resulting in such an empty hinterland.
Liu Yimin came from the future, so he naturally knew that at this time the Japanese army did not have the time and energy to strengthen the defense of the occupied areas. They were wholeheartedly chasing and annihilated the main force of the national army and capturing big cities. After they took Xuzhou and Wuhan, they found that they could not achieve the goal of fighting to support the war.
If the domestic economy is tight, it will change its combat strategy against China, form many security forces, vigorously expand the puppet army, and strengthen the defense and rule of the occupied areas. By that time, the difficult days for each base area will come.
In Duliu, Liu Yimin ordered Qian Zhuangfei and He Xinghua to open the radio and contact the central and headquarters, and reported that the entire division had successfully arrived in the Duliu area of Jinghai, and the Japanese army had not yet discovered our army's intentions. He asked the central government to contact the Tianjin Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China and asked them to send people to the army.
Lead the way and prepare to welcome the instructor to occupy Tianjin.
After sending the telegram, Liu Yimin said to Luo Ronghuan: "Have a meeting here, meet with the comrades above the company, and tell the comrades about the combat deployment of the occupation of Tianjin, so that the Political Department can refer to the relevant disciplines during the occupation of Chengdu and Xi'an.
, formulate a mass discipline for occupying Tianjin, and issue it to all troops to implement it."
After hearing this, Luo Ronghuan immediately told Cai Zhong to draft and print the mass discipline, and to prepare combat deployment according to the instructions of the division commander.
On the morning of the 23rd, the instructor held a meeting of cadres above the company on the campus of Duliu Primary School. When Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan walked into the venue, the neatly arranged cadres applauded for a long time and welcomed their respected leaders.
Liu Yimin waved his hand, stopped the applause, and then stood on a bench and said loudly: "Comrades, we are hiding at night, climbing mountains and wading in the belly of the Japanese North China Front Army. Everyone knows what we are here to do.
Is it?"
The cadres did not speak out, even the brigade-level cadres who knew about the combat missions on this trip did not speak, waiting for the division commander to speak on their own.
When Liu Yimin saw the cadres not speaking, he said, "Do you know where the most developed business place in China is? Let me tell you that there are two cities in China that are international commercial metropolis, one is Shanghai in East China.
One is Tianjin in North China. The name of this Tianjin was created by Zhu Di, the Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty. He crossed the canal from here, went south to launch the Jingnan Campaign, and finally won the world. Tianjin is the five tributaries of the Haihe River, the South Canal, the North Canal, and the Zi
The confluence and estuary of the Ya River, the Daqing River, and the Yongding River are the starting point of the Jinpu Railway, and are also an important port for maritime trade between North China and abroad. You may not know that now our China, including the Northeast occupied by the Japanese army, is included.
Tianjin accounts for one-third of the total foreign trade in one year. Here, we can not only obtain all kinds of machine tools needed to build a new arsenal, but also factories that can produce various civilian commodities.
There are dozens of banks, including countless gold bars, silver dollars, US dollars, francs, pounds, and yen. All weapons, ammunition and logistics supplies of the Japanese North China Front were transported here from Japan and distributed to all places.
There are aircraft, ships, cars, armored vehicles, tank vehicles, machine guns, cannons, as well as rice, white flour, military uniforms, and oil for hundreds of thousands of troops of the North China Front Army. It is not an exaggeration to say that we are going to make a fortune. Let me talk about it again.
One thing, everyone knows about the Beiyang warlords. Yuan Shikai, the founder of the Beiyang warlord, practiced the Beiyang powerhouse at a small station in Tianjin. It should be clear now that what we are going to do next, right?"
The cadres were all excited now, everyone's eyes were wide open and their faces were red, as if they could bite Tianjin with just one mouth. Someone immediately waved his arms and shouted a slogan: "Eliminate the Japanese devils."
, seize Tianjin!"
Although Luo Ronghuan was serious, seeing Liu Yimin's incitement, he stirred the cadres' emotions like a splash of oil and flames. He couldn't help but open his thick lips and laughed silently.
Liu Yimin waved his hand again, stopped the excitement of the cadres and continued: "This Tianjin City is much richer, more open and more fashionable than the Chengdu we have occupied. The city is full of roads and sea rivers.
Passing through the middle of the city, there are bridges on the river, and by the river are tall buildings built with steel and concrete. There are concessions built by several countries in the city. Although this is the product of the invasion of our imperialist powers, their buildings are indeed
Beautiful, there are European-style buildings, Russian-style buildings, etc., especially there is an Italian architectural area inside. Tianjin people call them small foreign buildings, with different styles and beautiful beauty. Many comrades don't understand what I say. I'll call it
For example, we often say that paradise is beautiful. The buildings in the Italian concession area in Tianjin are as beautiful as the paradise you dream of. Moreover, Tianjin is not only beautiful, but also many people have never eaten before.
Delicious dishes that you haven't heard of, such as Italian pizza, French dough, etc. Do you want to go and try it?”
The cadres responded with a loud voice: "I want to!"
Liu Yimin used his eyes to pass over the faces of the extremely emotional cadres and said slowly: "However, I want to tell everyone that when we drive away the invaders and build a new China, this Tianjin city belongs to us.
Therefore, after the troops enter the city, they must strictly abide by discipline and not destroy all kinds of buildings. Everyone is from the old Red Army, and I believe everyone can do it. Now, I will tell you why I led everyone to attack Tianjin.
1. Tianjin is the rear of the Japanese army in North China. Taking Tianjin is equivalent to giving the Japanese army a blow, greatly hitting the Japanese army's arrogance and greatly encouraging the morale of our people. You may not know that a few days ago, the Japanese army just occupied China.
Nanjing, the capital of the Republic of China, will soon occupy our Taiyuan. Well, since they have the ability to capture our strong walls and clear fields, empty Nanjing and Taiyuan, then we will seize Tianjin, which is full of arms and materials in the warehouse, and see who laughs.
happier."
After saying that, Liu Yimin raised his eyebrows slightly, and a playful smile ripped on the corner of his mouth, which made the cadres burst into laughter. Tang Xingying, Zhao Xiaoman and Jingjing in the team were all waving their hearts, and their eyes were full.
Smile.
Liu Yimin waved his hand and said, "The second thing is to disrupt the enemy's strategic layout. Now, the Japanese army invaded North China and Central China in two lines, forming two major battlefields. They were eager to open up the connection between North China and Central China.
Therefore, all the elite troops were out, and they attacked Nanjing, Hangzhou, Taiyuan, and Jinan. They were also planning to capture Henan, defeat the Yangtze River, and attack Wuhan. I would not let him do it! He was not a high degree of mechanization.
Is it powerful in mobility? OK, I will mobilize them and let them follow my baton, run around, rescue them back and forth, drag the fat horse to thin, and the thin horse to death. Let his tank and car run away the gasoline
, The soldiers grind their feet, the elites turn into tired soldiers, and the tired soldiers turn into residual soldiers. As long as we occupy Tianjin, we can threaten Peiping and the entire North China Plain at any time. At that time, the Japanese army occupying Shanxi will have to come back to rescue and occupy Shandong
The Japanese army also had to come back to rescue, and even the Japanese army occupying Henan had to come back to rescue. Why do you still yell at the destruction of China in three months? I think the Japanese probably have to think about where to die. Wait until we wash it in Tianjin
When the Japanese rescue troops are at a bath, eat well, sleep well, and have no place to use their energy. At that time, if any unlucky guy meets us, we will be like pinching an ants, and it will be easy.
Crush him to death. Everyone, is this the reason?"
The cadres no longer care about answering, and many of them open their mouths and listen to their beloved teachers analyzing the situation. Even senior cadres such as Cai Zhong, Zeng Zhongsheng, Gao Yuan, Liu Jian, and Li Qing also looked admiring.
Liu Yimin felt a little strange when he saw the cadres not making a sound. He glanced at him and saw Tang Xingying, Zhao Xiaoman and Jingjing's pretty eyes full of obsession. After scanning again, he saw that the cadres were also the same.
Respectful face, sighed in his heart, and then said: "Third, Tianjin is the logistics supply base of the North China Front Army. We take Tianjin and emptied all the money, equipment, supplies, arms and food from Tianjin. Then the North China Front Army wants to
It's hungry. Our Eighth Route Army is poor and the Japanese devils are rich. This is absolutely unfair. The Japanese pay attention to Bushido, which is actually the norm of behavior of samurai. One of the important ones is fair duels. Since we want to be fair, we have to let
They stood on the same starting line as us, making them as poor as us, and in the end, they would be as poor as they could not afford to wear pants, eat enough, and fight. As we all know, we went from the 18th Regiment to the Guard Division,
The Seventh Army, and today's teachers, never fight without seizure, never fight without oil and water. If you want to fight, fight with big and large seizures. As long as we occupy Tianjin, not only the entire army's clothing,
Weapons can be replaced, and soldiers can eat high-quality rice and noodles from Japan, and we have all the money, equipment and supplies needed to build new bases. With these things, we can do it after we arrive in Shandong.
By expanding the army, you can start mining, run factories, schools, cultivate and operate, and turn Shandong into a powerful base like Shaanxi. Are you confident?"
No one answered whether he was confident or not, but several brigade commanders jumped out and rushed to shout, "We want to be the main attacker!"
Liu Yimin had to wave his hand to drive several brigade commanders back and immediately asked Cai Zhong to read out the mass discipline for occupying Tianjin.
After receiving the report, Mao Zedong was so happy that he immediately asked He Zizhen to get a bottle of Maotai and called Zhou Enlai, Zhang Wentian, Chen Yun, Ye Jianying and others, drinking while discussing how to call back the instructor.
At this time, after occupying Nanjing, the Japanese army came to Taiyuan and would soon occupy Taiyuan. It was a time of arrogant and sharp military force. If our army occupied Tianjin, we could not only obtain Japanese supplies in Tianjin, but also directly
Threat of Peiping was like detonating a large bomb in the heart of the Japanese army.
According to Liu Yimin's original idea, the ideal choice is to quietly occupy Tianjin, move Tianjin, and then quietly evacuate, go south to Shandong, and create a Shandong base. But when he was about to take over Tianjin, Mao Zedong's vision became even more
Deep.
During this period, due to the success of the Eighth Route Army units, the strength of the people's armed forces led by the Communist Party increased greatly. Not to mention anything else, Liu Yimin's move to strictly order each county to establish a security regiment when he was in Xi'an has now been effective. The main force of the Eighth Route Army
After advancing eastward, the Central Committee dispatched a large number of cadres from the left-behind troops of the three main divisions and the security division of the guard division of the Red Fifth Army, which was left-behind in Shaanxi, and the security division of the Red Ninth Army, to work in the guard regiments of various counties and train the troops. Now,
These troops were trained in a peaceful Shaanxi base area with a concise and could take time to bring them to the battlefield, mix with the main force, and strengthen the main force's strength.
Think about every miracle that Liu Yimin has created since joining the Red Army. Mao Zedong smiled from his heart to the corner of his mouth. Now, seeing that the troops have arrived in Jinghai, Tianjin has become a peach that the instructor can bite off in one bite. Mao Zedong naturally needs to be good.
I have thought about the enemy and our situation and response strategies after occupying Tianjin.
