Chapter 879 The maiden battle of the Japanese National Salvation Army
The headquarters of Li Lingfeng and Chen Cunyi and the camping ground of the Third Special Forces Squadron are in the Liang Family Courtyard in Eshankou Village.
The Liang family was one of the four "Cui, Song, and Huangliang" families in Yi County. In its heyday, it owned 7,000 acres of land and 128 buildings. When Sun Meiyao, a bandit from Baodugu, committed the "Lincheng Train Robbery", the main place for negotiations between the official and the bandits was
Here, the head of the Liang family, Liang Buhai, as a celebrity recognized by both the government and the bandits, often mediates. The headquarters of Han Fuqu's encirclement and suppression of the Baodugu Mountain area is also located here.
The fact that the Liang family was able to settle down and build a family on the doorstep of the Baodugu bandits and create such a huge fortune was unknown to outsiders. At least one thing was that they had an armed force that made no bandit dare to stroke his beard.
Liang Buhai once ran his own regiment training bureau, which later developed into a security regiment. Liang Buhai died
He was also the honorary security chief. Liang Buhai's son Liang Jilu was appointed as the commander of the third guerrilla detachment of the fifth theater of the Communist Party of China during the Xuzhou Battle. As soon as he took office, he appointed the presidents of the joint village associations of each district in Yixian County as his
The regiment commander and the battalion commander effectively brought all the civilian armed forces in Yixian County under their command.
The instructor of the Eighth Route Army entered Shandong from the east and fought consecutive battles and became the mainstay in the hearts of the people in Shandong. In the central base areas of western Shandong, southeastern Shandong, and Taiyi, the Japanese and puppet forces have long been destroyed, and even the bandits have been wiped out. Jiaodong
Except for Yantai and Weihai, which were in the hands of the Japanese army, the rest of the area was recaptured by our army, forming an area dominated by the Eighth Route Army with a small number of Japanese troops.
Most of the armed anti-Japanese base areas, Jiaolai and Qinghe areas are under the control of our army. The local armed forces in Japan rely on the protection of the Eighth Route Army to survive. Although the Hebei-Shandong border has temporarily fallen, it is only a confrontation between the Japanese puppet army and the Eighth Route Army.
The remaining Japanese local armed forces were either lost during the Japanese raids, or they were withdrawn to the Qinghe area or southern Hebei to join forces with the Hebei-Cha war zone.
Looking at all the base areas in Shandong, only the situation in southern Shandong is complicated.
Before the Taierzhuang War, the former commander of the Japanese Second Army Nishio Hisao organized heavy troops to carry out a vigorous campaign against local armed forces in Shandong. As a result, the 21st Division and the independent fourth brigade were annihilated by the Eighth Route Army, and the campaign came to nothing.
After the Battle of Xuzhou, some large landowners and businessmen in various counties and cities defected to the Japanese one after another, and under the protection of the Japanese army, they organized and maintained the puppet regime at the county, district and township levels; at this time, the vast rural areas were in a state of chaos.
Government status. Due to the fact that it was abandoned on the battlefield after the Battle of Xuzhou
With a large amount of weapons and ammunition, various forces in southern Shandong took the opportunity to collect weapons and form armed forces. The Communist Party also used the legal political power and military institutions it controlled to issue letters of appointment indiscriminately. For a time, "commanders were like nothing on the ground in southern Shandong, and commissioners were everywhere."
". These armed forces are divided into separate territories, and each
The largest armed forces are as follows: The first is the Liang Jilu Division of the Third Guerrilla Detachment of the Fifth Theater Zone operating in the Beizhuang area north of Zaozhuang. The second is the Liang Jilu Department of the Third Guerrilla Detachment of the Fifth Theater District of Yixian County.
The *** Military Commission Ranger Corps in North China
Huang Xitang Department of the 50th Detachment. Huang Yuan is the leader of the Fuxing Society of the Communist Party of China. After taking office as the commander of the department, he appointed the presidents of the joint village associations of each district as the echelon commander; the third one is active in the Nan and Bei Luo areas north of Taierzhuang.
*** Commissioner of the Third Inspectorate of Shandong Province and Guerrilla Division
The Sun Yehong detachment to which Zhang Liyuan belongs; the fourth is the Lu Yangshan Department of the Second Branch of the Third General Regiment of the Third General Regiment of the Theater Special Work Group of the Communist Military Commission operating in Guxian east of the Jiawang Coal Mine and the north and south sides of the canal; the fifth is the activities
On both sides of Qingshan Spring and Liuhe River in District 2 of Tongshan County
Han Zhilong, the commander of the Sulu border guerrillas of the Communist Party of China; the sixth is Shen Xianwu, active in the Fengmao and Gaozhuang areas of Teng County. Shen Xianwu was initially appointed as the first administrative inspector of Shandong Province and the commander of the Second Security Division of the Communist Party of China.
, his department was later organized as the General Directorate of the Military Committee of the Communist Party of China
The 43rd detachment of the seventh column of the team. The seventh is Sun Heling and his son who are active in the Baiyan area of Fei County. Sun Heling once served as the president of Baiyan Society and the general leader of Baiyan Militia, and controlled the five militia groups of Baiyan Society.
The native capitals of Feixian, Liangqiu, Shanyin, Tengxian, Shanting and other places
His descendant Sun Yigeng is the mayor of Baiyan Township and the commander of the eighth detachment of the Sulu War Zone of the Communist Party of China. The eighth is Zhou Tong, the magistrate of Teng County, Li Tongwei, the magistrate of Yi County, and the commander of Tongshan County.
Chang Lan Bohua, Pi County Magistrate Wang Huayun and others used the legal name to organize the armed forces.
These are all scale and climate. There are many who dare to call themselves a detachment or a brigade with thirty, fifty, or one hundred and eighty people.
It was at this time that bandits arose in southern Shandong. The larger bandits in the area north of Taierzhuang included Wang Xueli, Zhang Fade, Liang Guanghuai, etc., with as many as several hundred and some more than a thousand in each group; the larger bandits were on the Tongpi border east of Jiawang.
The gangsters include Wei Yuji, Liu Qi, Black Smoke Tong, and Bigfoot
Zi, Jiang Donghai, etc.; in the north of the canal are Shaozhuanghu, Li Hua, Cao Wenjia, Li Yunfu, etc.; on the border of Yiteng are Cao Wanlun, etc.; in the Yixian area on the south bank of the canal, there is Pan Mingxi of Pingshanzi in the west, and Zhang Yuantai of Yanglou in the east.
These bandits, no matter how big or small, only have a slap in their eyes.
The word money means that the Japanese invaders bully the Chinese, and they also take the opportunity to rob and kidnap hundreds of people. Some bandits carry "meat tickets" to hundreds of people during the march. There is a Zhang Yuantai in Yanglou Village on the south bank of the Taierzhuang Canal. He turned out to be a gambler. After the Taierzhuang battle, he picked some
guns, and a mortar, pulled up
He joined a team of more than a hundred people and robbed everywhere. He used a bullock cart to pull a mortar and went to each village to scare the people, threatening to bombard anyone who did not come to the village. Later it was revealed that he did not have any shells.
It was rumored to be the butt of jokes, and the common people said that "Zhang Yuantai's mortar has no eggs (shells)."
Under the control of the traitors, various reactionary Taoist sects also sprouted and spread rapidly. The Huangshahui east of Shagou Station in District 8 of Teng County, the Central Road around Yicheng, and the Red Spear Club around Jiawang all aimed to protect their families.
In name, he actually acted as a lackey of the Japanese invading army. Wang Yaping, the leader of the Red Spear Club in the Canal South area, claimed to be the commander of the Red Spear Club Corps. Because of his meritorious service for the Japanese army, he was called the "Iron King".
In order to protect their families and property, the landlord class in southern Shandong also took the opportunity to expand their private armed forces, ranging from hundreds to dozens of people. Except for a small number of these armed forces who hated the Japanese and sincerely resisted Japan, most of them worked privately with the bandits.
Through collusion, sitting on the ground to separate the dirty things.
In this chaotic situation, various armed forces are intertwined. Sometimes they collude and sometimes fight, but their common characteristic is bullying the people. No matter who they are, as long as they are armed, they will fight against the locals in the name of resisting Japan and protecting the family.
The masses distributed food and money, causing the people in the occupied areas to live in dire straits.
When the Fifth Jiao Brigade swept through southern Shandong, they eliminated habitual bandits and traitors Zhang Buyun and Liu Heiqi, and prepared to establish local political power and local armed forces in the counties of southern Shandong and integrate motley armed forces. However, southern Shandong was dominated by the Japanese and puppet forces and the Communist Party of Shandong.
Areas with strong local armed forces, such as Yixian County, Surabaya, Qufu, Yanzhou, Jining, Zouxian County, and Linyi County, etc., all have counties, market towns and transportation lines controlled by the Japanese and puppets. The Eighth Route Army, ***
Local armed forces fought guerrillas in mountainous areas and rural areas. Later, due to the performance of the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese army carried out two heavy sieges in Shandong. The local armed forces suffered heavy losses and were either incorporated into the local armed forces of the Eighth Route Army or moved closer to Zhang Liyuan's department. In some places
Because the armed forces sacrificed too much, or even the whole army was annihilated or surrendered to the Japanese and puppets, they became traitors. For example, Sun Heling and his son in Baiyan Town became hardcore traitors.
After the Taixi Campaign, Liu Yimin used his army to completely sweep through the Lunan area. Wherever the army went, the Japanese and puppet regime collapsed. Of course, some big traitors and traitors fled to Xuzhou when they saw that something was wrong. Unfortunately, at that time, the Eighth Route Army
The Japanese troops were mobilized by sweeping across Lunan and besieging Xuzhou. They quickly broke through the Longhai Road and headed south. There was no time to attack the rebels in Lunan and eliminate the bandits. They also reorganized the various anti-Japanese armed forces and reactionary guilds. It was a bit rainy.
The ground looks wet.
As a result, Liu Yimin led the main force southward, and Yu Xuezhong's troops came over. Now, the situation in southern Shandong became more complicated. With Yu Xuezhong's troops as a backer, the local armed forces represented by Zhang Liyuan began to grow again.
In counties such as Yi County and Teng County, there were the Japanese puppet government, the Japanese government in a guerrilla state, and the local political power and armed forces of the Eighth Route Army. The unique spectacle of one county and three governments in Lunan appeared.
Liang Jilu, the owner of the Liang Family Courtyard where Li Lingfeng and Chen Cunyi set up headquarters, and the commander of the third guerrilla detachment, was outnumbered in the brutal raids by the Japanese army, but did not want to lose national integrity, nor did he want to cooperate with the Communist Party and the Eighth Route Army, so he led
Teams with heavy losses go to vote
He went to Zhang Liyuan. By the time Li Lingfeng and the others arrived at Eshan Pass to control the southbound route to Zaozhuang, the Eshan Pass was already garrisoned by a company of puppet troops. It was precisely because they were puppet troops, easy to fight, and had no scruples that Li Lingfeng and the others were able to go so smoothly.
They occupied Ashan Pass in one fell swoop.
After the troops had dinner, the impatient Hong Zhenhai couldn't stand it anymore and asked Li Lingfeng and Chen Cunyi several times when they would set off. What Hong Zhenhai said made sense. He said that there was a bathhouse in Zaozhuang City, and the little devils could wash themselves clean.
We are going to kill them. There are many traitors and spies on the ground in Zaozhuang, and the little devils have good noses! If the troops hide here for a long time, they may be discovered by the Japanese and puppet troops.
Although Hong Zhenhai received basic training in special operations, he was far from being a real special operations force. He had never seen a special operations group fight. He thought that the little devils were chasing them. How could they be so arrogant when meeting a special operations group? He didn't know,
The hidden outpost of this special force is very far away. If any Japanese and puppet soldier is unlucky and wants to die early, just come and we will guarantee that he will die silently.
It was not until dark that Li Lingfeng and Chen Cunyi stopped hesitating and ordered to assemble and set off. Hong Zhenhai and Wang Zhisheng's Zaozhuang Railway Team led the troops, divided into groups, and ran towards Zaozhuang City in the night.
