Chapter 711 Bloody Hebei and Shandong Border (Three)
In 1939, a heavy snowfall moistened the North China Plain so that even the soil turned black and oily. By the 28th day of the first lunar month, it was only three days before the vernal equinox. The spring breeze on the North China Plain was slightly drunk and the grass was green.
The leaves turned green, and the swallows flying south had begun to form formations and return north. The spring girl twisted her graceful figure and walked on the fertile field, calling the farmers diligently: Spring is coming, spring is coming!
When he woke up in the morning, the old man Qingsan shouted his son to get up and pack up the farm tools.
The old man celebrated his birthday and lived in Jixiantun, Qing County. When he was young, he was a famous good dealer in this famous house, such as plows, hoes, and rakes. The landlords in the surrounding villages were willing to hire him to work.
.
At that time, the old man in celebration of the birthday could eat several sorghum steamed buns in one meal, and carried a 150-pound bag of grain that weighed 150 kilograms without blushing or breathing. Later, the old man in celebration of the birthday bought a donkey with the wages he had saved for several years.
He started to rush the business, and carried salt from the seaside salt farm to Qingxian County, Cangxian County, Xinhai County, and returned it to the escorts along the way. The fishermen carried the white dry food in Hengshui. After a few years, they were actually on the south bank of Ziya River.
Jixiantun bought a few acres of land and got married.
My wife married her house and was less than a year old, and she added a fat and fat boy. Now, the old man has been doing it even more happily. She planted and harvested in spring, and continued to run his donkey cart during the slack farm. She has been to Tianjin and met her
Crossing the road villa is considered a talented man in Jixian Village. Gradually, life became richer. By the time he was in his forties, he had twenty acres of good paddy fields, and the donkeys were replaced with two black lights.
During the holidays, my wife can wear clothes made of foreign cloth to visit relatives at her parents' home.
This era is not the era of making a fortune and buying a property. The old man celebrated his birthday was targeted by bandits, kidnapped, redeemed his votes, and made some troubles. The 20 acres of good land and two mules of the birthday were replaced by silver dollars in the bandit's pockets.
.
After this incident, the old man's waist bent early, and the wrinkles on his forehead and face were like the big and small ditches on the ground on Hebei and Shandong. However, the old man was not discouraged, and he started to do the old again.
Our company sold his three tile houses and started a donkey cart. Not to mention, it took a few years of hard work to celebrate the birthday of the old man in his 50s, and he bought back his ten acres of good land.
, built three tiled houses and several thatched houses, but this time the donkey was not replaced with a mule. He felt that the last time he was kidnapped because the mule was more eye-catching than the donkey.
Seeing that his son grew up to be a young man who was seventeen or eighteen years old, the old man who celebrated his birthday thought he had to do a good job, save some money, buy the remaining ten acres of land, then scatter the house and build it into a tile house.
I asked a matchmaker to tell my son that a pretty girl got married. This life will be considered a task that will be completed, and this time I will not live in vain.
The sound of cannons on Lugou Bridge once again shattered the dream of celebrating the old man's birthday. The Japanese came and the old man came back from the old Japanese. He found that the people who maintained the meeting led the security team to urge the food and distribute money. When he was young, the old man traveled around the country and always thought about it.
Spending money to eliminate disasters, he dug out the grain buried in the yard, thinking that no matter how cruel the security team and the Japanese were, they would have to leave food and seeds for the family. Unexpectedly, the traitors of the security team dug out at first sight
He took out the food, and took it away without saying a word, without even leaving a sorghum for him.
Now, the old man celebrating his birthday has figured it out. It is no longer possible to be a country man who is a mere countryman these days. Donkey carts can no longer run away, and growing food is also for the Japanese and traitors. No matter how good the dealer is, it is impossible.
If you plant him here and grab him there, how can the person holding a hoe with a gun to grab him?
The old man who was disheartened to celebrate his birthday completely abandoned his dream of buying land and building a house. He led his wife and children to dig wild vegetables and go down the river to catch fish, with the purpose of filling his stomach.
Later, the Eighth Route Army arrived at the border of Hebei and Shandong, and there was also a guerrilla team led by the *** River on the south bank of Ziya River, and the Japanese did not dare to come out to sweep it easily. The Eighth Route Army cadres mobilized the villagers to produce and save themselves, and celebrated the birthday of the old man this time, but he made a fortune.
But the farmer's idea is to take care of the crops. The old man celebrated the birthday, led his wife and children to farm wholeheartedly. Not bad. Last autumn, the ten acres of land for the birthday, the old man's birthday had a good harvest, and the sorghum he made was enough for a year.
Yes. This time he learned his skills and according to the requirements of the district cadres, he dug holes at home and hid all the food. As a result, when the Japanese were storming the border between Hebei and Shandong, the old man's family actually avoided the food.
A disaster.
The old man celebrating his birthday has recovered his spirits and feels that this Japanese devil is not that scary. Planting crops well can still make the whole family have no worries about food and clothing.
Several times his son proposed to join the guerrillas, but the old man in celebration of his birthday stopped him. He told his son that good iron would not be nailed, good men would not be in the army, and that it was the duty of farmers to grow good crops. Bullets do not grow eyes, if they are
If the soldiers were killed, they would be killed. In the future, there would be no one to visit the ancestors. In that case, wouldn’t others be able to tie animals to the ancestors’ graves and ruin them at will?
Leave his son to help him. The old man in his fifties felt that his waist seemed to be upright again. After the autumn harvest, he planted all ten acres of land on wheat. Because the wheat was precious, it could be sold well in the market.
Price. Besides, according to the Eighth Route Army cadres, Luxi implemented the implementation of ripening twice a year in the past year. After autumn, wheat was harvested in summer, and it would not delay the harvest of corn and beans. If this is the case, it would last year to withstand it
After working for two years, I can tell my son that my wife is a wife.
Seeing that the wheat seedlings are green and growing well, the old man celebrated his birthday wanted to hoe the ground and loosen the soil in time, and then apply donkey fertilizer. In summer, the old man celebrated his birthday was busy early in the morning and put on a donkey.
In the car, after my son got up, the father and the two packed a car full of donkey fat, and went downstairs with shovels and hoes.
After arriving at the ground, the old man squatted in the squat and carefully checked the growth of the wheat seedlings. It was really good. A heavy snow relieved the drought. The wheat seedlings were very good. If there were a few more rain in spring, there would definitely be
Good harvest.
The old man celebrating the birthday stood up and looked at his son solemnly and said, "Baby, I will remove the donkey fat in the circle in the past two days and put them all into the field. Let's work hard and do it well after the wheat harvest.
If the food jumps, you can tell your wife."
My son was always dissatisfied with the old man who celebrated his birthday and refused to join the guerrillas. When his father said this, he replied in a muffled voice: "The Japanese will not cause harm. If you don't wait for you to save food, the Japanese will come to grab it."
You don’t even look at what the world is now, but you still want to get a wife for me!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard something seemed to be moving in the distance. Both of them were so shocked that they looked up towards Ziya River. They saw that the Japanese were rushing towards Jixiantun like the Ziya River flooding.
The old man celebrating his birthday was shocked. God, why didn’t he take these damn beasts away? Why did he release them out and waste the crops?
My son was young and reacted quickly, and he didn't care about unloading the donkey anymore. He was in a panic and unloaded the car. He led the donkey and shouted that the old man would celebrate his birthday and run away.
The old man celebrating his birthday drove a donkey cart to pull his feet a few years ago. He had been to Tianjin and had seen the Japanese alike, knowing that this was a group of beasts who killed people like killing chickens. In addition, he had experienced the Japanese army occupying the borders of Hebei and Shandong and sweeping Hebei and Shandong.
After experiencing the old days of running, I knew that the Japanese came silently, and the people in the village could not run out and were about to suffer a disaster.
My son wanted the old man to ride a donkey to celebrate the birthday, but the old man shouted anxiously: "Sanzi, dad can't run anymore. You should run back and ring the bell quickly and tell your mother to get into the tunnel."
Seeing the Japanese devils getting closer and closer, the son knew that things were urgent, so he didn't talk to his father, so he drove the donkey and ran back.
At this time, the old man celebrating his birthday really saw clearly that the Japanese troops were coming up, not only cavalry, but also black infantrymen, but also iron turtles, cars, motorcycles and cannons.
The old man celebrating his birthday really wanted to go home to see him. He was really worried about his wife, son, and his donkey, but unfortunately, all this was impossible.
Seeing the old man celebrating the birthday, the Japanese cavalry were like beasts seeing prey, waving their sabers, howling, and rushing toward Jixiantun, who was behind the old man celebrating the birthday. The sound of horse hooves and beards roaring in the mountains.
The same Japanese army trampled the wheat fields that had just returned to the green of the old man into a large field of earth mixed with broken grass.
The old man celebrating his birthday has been serving crops all his life, and he regards crops as more than life. Seeing the Japanese trampling on wheat seedlings, he felt that his idea of saving food for his son to marry a wife was shattered again, and he squatted on the ground and whimpered.
I cried and cried, "God, what evil did I commit in my previous life? You actually released such a group of beasts to ruin my wheat fields. I also expect the wheat to be dumped in summer and tell my children about my wife! God
Ah, why don’t you even leave a way out for farmers!”
How could God hear the cry of the old man celebrating his birthday? The Japanese cavalry ignored the voice of a Chinese old farmer who wanted to make a fortune all his life. Seeing that the old man celebrating his birthday was about to die under the hoof of the Japanese cavalry. At this time, he would be in his life.
Never compete with others, I plant crops in detail, and the old man who celebrated the birthday of a donkey cart stood up, stared in despair eyes, waved the shovel in his hand, and immediately got excited that he was about to trample on his horse.
The screaming Japanese cavalry chopped off from the horse.
The old man has never fought with anyone in his life. When encountering things, he always wants to find someone to talk to him. If he is convinced and spends some money, he will never be able to overcome the obstacles. No one expected that he will be old and will be old.
The old man who celebrates his birthday will suddenly become like a beast when the Japanese cavalry tramples on the wheat field and is about to lose his life under the horse's hooves.
The Japanese were in a large army. After the old man squinted his birthday, he didn't even have the chance to squat and vomit or continue to squint, so he was beaten to death by the Japanese. He didn't know that it was his squint, which was lifted away.
The prelude of the fierce anti-sweeping storm in the Hebei-Shandong border.
The first and second divisions of the Japanese were the ones who went south from Qing County. These two divisions were originally ordered to withdraw from the northeast and return to the northeast, but they received an urgent call from the base camp on the way, and then turned around and headed south again. On March 18, they suddenly responded to the situation.
The Hebei-Shandong side launched a crazy carpet sweep.
After the Japanese cavalry killed the old man who celebrated his birthday, they roared over Jixiantun and continued to move south. The large Japanese troops following behind continued to move south with the cavalry, but they distributed a squadron's troops and rushed into Jixiantun and began to smash the door and pry the door.
, arrest the common people who had not had time to get out of the tunnel.
These crazy Japanese may have received the imperial edict from the base camp that turned the Eighth Route Army base into scorched earth. As soon as they saw that there was no one in the yard, they would light a torch and burn the house, causing Jixiantun to shine.
That morning, the first Japanese Division and the second division had more than 50,000 troops deployed their troops on the Ziya River line, starting from north to south, and wherever they passed, they slaughtered the village and destroyed the village, causing a sensation of the sky
Blood mist.
After the 18th Regiment of the New Sixth Brigade retreated from Cang County, it was in hiding at the junction of Cang County, Xinhai County and Qing County. The troops lived in various villages and towns, and guided local armed training in the three counties while resting and recuperating, and were also responsible for the
Responsible for monitoring the movements of Japanese and puppet troops in Pingjin.
The 18th Regiment, the former Hebei-Shandong Border Independent Regiment. When the Eighth Route Army advanced eastward to Shandong, Zhang Hongtao led the Sixth Brigade to join the 31st Detachment led by our party on the Hebei-Shandong Border, and added 2,000 training headquarters to train new recruits. After Liu Yimin
The order of the 31st Detachment was completely mixed with the main force, and the Hebei-Shandong Border Independent Regiment was established and the Hebei-Shandong Border Independent Regiment was established. Huang Hua and Yang Zhong, who were from the old Red Army, served as the leader of the Hebei-Shandong Border Independent Regiment and the Second Regiment respectively.
Zhao Mingxin and Di Yudong, the head of the Hebei-Shandong Border Party, served as political commissars of the two regiments respectively. After the capture of Jinan, the Eighth Route Army expanded eight new brigades and Jinan Garrison Brigades, the Shandong Central Garrison Brigades, and the Hebei-Shandong Border Independent Regiment were incorporated into the New Eight
The number of the brigade was changed to the new 24th Regiment; the second Hebei-Shandong Border Independence Regiment was incorporated into the new 6th Regiment, and the number of the new 18th Regiment.
That morning, Yang Zhong, the commander of the New 18th Regiment, followed the guards to run morning exercises, returned to the regiment headquarters, washed up and had breakfast, and prepared to go to Ziya River to check the river embankment.
Yang Zhong was from Nanjiang Village, Jintian Township, Anfu County, Jiangxi Province. In 1930, he led more than 20 young people from his fellow villagers to Yongxin to participate in the Red Army. Later, he followed the Long March of the Third Army and was a cadre sent by the Red Third Army to the 18th Regiment.
Last night, Yang Zhong came to have a discussion with several fellow villagers. The fellow villagers said that the upper reaches of the Ziya River originated from the Hutuo River on the northern slope of Wutai Mountain and the Fuyang River originated from the eastern slope of Taihang Mountain. After the two rivers converged at Zangjia Bridge in Xian County, they began to
Called Ziya River. In recent years, the Ziya River embankment has been disrepaired. When floods come, it often floods the villages and land along the coast. Moreover, Japanese steamers often pass through the Ziya River and can also move west along the river and directly to the Hutuo River.
The two sides of the Fuyang River were launched. If the Eighth Route Army could lead everyone to repair the river embankment and clear the irrigation canal network, then this area would really become a land of fish and rice.
Yang Zhong considered that if he could take advantage of the battle, organize troops and fellow villagers to strengthen the Ziya River embankment and clear the irrigation canal network, which would reduce floods and increase grain output, and the prestige of the Eighth Route Army among fellow villagers would be further improved.
Therefore, he decided to check the Ziya River embankment early this morning to see where to start on the spot. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to ***(***.**
