Nanjing, Military Commission, Office of the Chairman.
"Niang Xipi!"
Chiang Kai-shek pointed at Dai Li and became furious: "Dai Yunong, you have let me down! An Yi launched a campaign of such a large scale, and you didn't know anything about it beforehand. What on earth did you, the head of the military commander, do?" [..com]
Dai Li's face turned pale, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he reported in a low voice: "Principal, if you are not a student and don't work hard, the truth is that the political review and identity screening system in the areas controlled by Junior Brother An is pervasive. No matter how hard our military commanders try, we can't do anything in Nanhua." The high-level military and political leaders are setting the record straight! Not to mention us, even the underground party organizations in the Communist Party of China have encountered obstacles many times. Their intelligence officers have been escorted out of the country. They have become disgraced and can only focus on the country!
"In addition, during this period we have been monitoring Wang Puppet's every move, confronting Li Shiqun and the special agents in Ding Mo Village, and were unable to monitor things in other places for a while."
"Can this be the reason for your inaction?"
Chiang Kai-shek became even more angry: "Ci Xiu, Meng Zhou (characterized by Li Shizhen) and Jianfeng told me that the power of your military command has penetrated into the military, party affairs, politics, administration, economy and culture, education, police, transportation, finance, taxation, and diplomacy , postal inspection, waterway shipping and other key departments are also very influential among Americans.
"In the past four years, you have not only had your own armed forces and traffic police forces, but also mobilized tax police and anti-government forces. There are hundreds of thousands of armed forces at your disposal, and most of them are the latest weapons and equipment. Zu Tao (Chen Guofu) (Character: Chen Lifu) and Qinshi (Chen Lifu) said that you have all-round connections in the party and state. Even my security forces were arranged by you. They made me cautious because I had such a powerful force, but you told me about the military mobilization of Nanhua. I don’t know anything. Can it be convincing?”
Dai Li felt a shiver in his heart. Although he knew that as his power increased and his strength expanded, he would inevitably arouse the hostility of the CC clique, the Prince clique, the civil engineering clique, and even the Huangpu clique and other party, government, military, and police factions, but he did not Thinking that Chiang Kai-shek had also begun to be wary of him, he quickly explained: "The students' loyalty to the principal is a lesson from heaven. If the principal does not trust Yu Nong. Yu Nong is willing to hand over the work in his hands to Brother Nai Jian (Tang Zongzi), he is just right I am in charge of intelligence work and I believe that I will not disappoint the principal!"
When Chiang Kai-shek heard that Dai Li wanted to give up, he became even more angry: "Yunong, are you blackmailing me?"
“Students don’t dare!”
Dai Li met Chiang Kai-shek's gaze and said: "Students are the loyal dogs of the principal because they uphold the leader's will and understand the leader's painstaking efforts throughout their lives. If the principal no longer trusts the students, the students will naturally retreat and find a place to live in seclusion in the mountains to avoid fear. Make it difficult for the principal!"
Chiang Kai-shek's face softened slightly and he sighed: "Yunong, don't blame me for being so angry! Do you know how many troops An Yi used to attack the Northeast and Far East today? There are thirty-three group armies in total! And all of them are The mechanized troops were armed to the teeth. The total strength was nearly four million! The Japanese army was defeated without even a decent resistance. In one day, more than 100,000 people were dead. Seeing that the Japanese had just begun to attack the Northeast, they were about to be unable to hold on!
"The telegram An Yi gave me was not so much explaining the situation of the war to me as showing off to me! What would you think if you were in my position? Before you knew it, An Yi already had the means to compete with me for the world. Capital, I even doubt it now. What if his army takes advantage of the situation and sweeps across North China and Shandong? "
Just when Dai Li was about to speak, Tang Zong hurried into the room and strode up to Chiang Kai-shek: "Principal, urgent report from North China, the Japanese troops in Sui, Shanxi, Cha, Hebei, Henan, Re, and Shandong provinces have begun to attack the Japanese army in an all-round way.
Launch a counterattack! So far, several counties have fallen to the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army."
Chiang Kai-shek became anxious when he heard this. Before Tang Zong could finish what he said, he immediately called Chen Bulei and asked him to inform the Standing Committee of the Military Commission. The members held a meeting to urgently discuss countermeasures.
An hour later, the Military Commission meeting room.
Chiang Kai-shek, Bai Chongxi, Chen Cheng, Cheng Qian, Li Liejun, Tang Shengzhi, Chen Shaokuan, Xu Yongchang, Chen Tiaoyuan, Zhang Zhizhong, Chen Shuming and other Kuomintang military leaders gathered together. Chief of Staff He Yingqin stood in front of the map, holding a baton in his hand, explaining the current situation in North China
situation.
"Due to relying on the Gansu-Qingning base area and the Xinjiang base area, the *** army has developed rapidly. Over the past five years of the Anti-Japanese War, the *** army has penetrated into various parts of North China and established more than ten base areas. Among them, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Border Region has a population of 20 million and has jurisdiction over more than 100
County, divided into Beiyue District, Jizhong District and Jireliao District; Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan Border Region has a population of 15 million and governs five
More than ten counties are divided into Shanxi-Hebei-Henan District and Hebei-Shandong-Henan District; Shandong District has a population of 10 million and governs more than 80 counties, including Shandong, Shandong, Jiaodong and Bohai Districts; Shanxi-Sui District has a population of 3
It has jurisdiction over more than 30 counties, including the northwest of the mountainous area and the southeast of Suiyuan. In addition, Hainan also has the Qiongya Corps, which also has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians gathered.
"A rough calculation shows that Japan has taken advantage of Japan's invasion to gain a firm foothold in North China! If the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region, Gansu-Qinghai-Ningxia Border Region and Xinjiang Soviet Area are added, the number of soldiers and civilians under its jurisdiction will exceed 60 million, and it will have a regular army of one
One million, militia three hundred
Ten thousand, eight million self-defense forces, and a large number of military-industrial enterprises that supported the Soviets when they retreated from Xinjiang, Central Asia and other places in 1938. They are able to produce guns and cannons on their own. They have become an independent force in the party-state and the Anyi military group.
Another big force from outside!
"Since last year, the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army have launched local counterattacks and launched a hundred-regiment battle, forcing the Japanese and puppet troops to abandon their strongholds and shrink their forces, so that the originally divided base areas were connected into one piece, and more than 30 occupied counties were successively recovered, including
The base area continues to expand, all of which are the background for this counterattack."
Chen Cheng frowned: "We all know this. The commissioner even wrote the book "China's Destiny" himself, focusing on promoting 'one doctrine' and 'one party', openly opposing ** and liberalism, and Zhang Yinwu, Shen Honglie
, Qin Qirong, Han Deqin and other party and state officials were ordered to cause trouble, but in the end they all failed without exception and attracted criticism from all walks of life.
"In the current context of the Japanese invasion, the contradiction between China and Japan is still the main contradiction. Any attempt to provoke a civil war will make the party and the country fall into moral passivity. This is also an important reason why we have been helpless in the face of the vigorous growth of the Japanese army in the past few years.
Brother Jing Jing, you should introduce the counterattack launched by the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army!"
He Yingqin was very dissatisfied with Chen Cheng for interrupting him, but now that the power of the civil engineering department was greatly increased, and Chen Cheng was deeply favored by Chiang Kai-shek, he could only swallow his anger and said: "At twelve o'clock in the morning, when the An family army entrenched itself in the inner city, the Northeast and the Far East
of
After the news of the Japanese army launching a general attack was confirmed, Mao Runzhi, chairman of the Central Military Commission, issued a statement on "The Last Battle against the Japanese Invaders". Later, Zhu Yujie, commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, issued seven consecutive orders, requiring all liberated areas to launch a full-scale counterattack against the Japanese army.
.
"According to the secret telegram uncovered by Major General Chi Buzhou, a secret code expert of the Military Unification Bureau, the Communist Army's Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region and the various departments of the Hebei-Jinxi Military Region cut off the east side of the Tongpu Railway to the north, the west side of the section north of Shijiazhuang of the Pinghan Railway and Datong
To the north, launch attacks in Fengzhen, Jining, Shangdu and other areas;
The troops of the Shanxi-Chahar Military Region will launch an attack on the areas near Zhangjiakou, Duolun and Peiping; the troops of the Central Hebei Military Region will launch an attack on the east side of the Shijiazhuang-Beiping section of the Ping-Han Railway and the areas near Tianjin; the part of the Hebei-Reliao Military Region will attack on the Beining-Nanjing Railway from Tangshan to
The Shanhaiguan section launched an attack.
"The northern line command of the Shanxi-Sui Military Region commanded the troops of the Yanmengguan Military Region and the Suiméng Military Region to launch an attack on the Pingsui Railway and the areas on both sides; the southern command commanded the troops of the Luliang Military Region to launch an attack on the west side of the northern section of the Tongpu Railway. In
The troops originally belonging to the 120th Division on the west bank of the Yellow River also crossed the river and marched westward to participate in the counterattack in northwestern Shanxi.
"The main forces of the Shanxi-Hebei-Luyu Military Region, with the Taihang and Taiyue Military Regions, advance to the west side of the Shijiazhuang-Handan section of the Ping-Han Railway, and use the troops of the Southern Hebei Military Region to launch an attack on the east side of the Handan-Shijiazhuang section of the Ping-Han Railway; with the Hebei-Shandong Railway
Troops from the Henan Military Region launched an attack on the east side of the Handan-Xinxiang section of the Ping-Han Railway.
"The Shandong Military Region will launch an attack on the western end of the Jiaoji Railway and the Yanzhou-Jinan section of the Tianjin-Puzhou Railway with the Central Shandong Army; launch an attack on the eastern section of the Jiaoji Railway with the Binhai Army; and launch an attack on the eastern section of the Jiaoji Railway and Longkou, Weihaiwei, etc. with the Jiaodong Army.
Yantai and other coastal towns launched an attack; Bohai forces launched an attack on the western section of the Jiaoji Railway and the Jinan-Puzhou Railway section from Jinan to Cangxian; Shandong troops launched an attack on the Lincheng-Yanzhou section of the Jin-Pu Railway and the areas north of Lincheng and Zaozhuang.
"To sum up, the scale of the counterattack launched by the Japanese army is unprecedented, and the determination is very strong! If we do not decisively choose to go north, Shandong and North China will fall into the hands of the Japanese. A Japanese army will be formed to rule us across the Yellow River.
situation, and we also lost Shandong!"
"We must not let *** take away all the benefits!"
Tang Shengzhi jumped up while shouting, and volunteered: "Chairman, I am willing to lead troops north to drive out the Japanese invaders and regain China! Moreover, our eyes cannot just focus on the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army. The Anjia Army now has millions of troops
is closing
Once they defeat the Kwantung Army, they will start from Northeast China and Menggu in the north, Central Asia, Southwest Asia and India in the west. Burma and Annan in the south, our land will be surrounded by them. Boy An Yi will compete in the Central Plains and aspire to dominate the world.
Serve!
"For the current plan, we can only fight against it by working hard to occupy more territory and stabilize the hinterland of China! Otherwise, the power of the party-state will definitely fall into the hands of Zhu Zi!"
Chiang Kai-shek's face suddenly turned ugly, and he immediately said: "Now even the Japanese army has launched a general attack. It is necessary and inevitable for us to launch a counterattack! But before that, the current chaos in various theaters must be changed.
In a disorderly situation, the central government will uniformly deploy troops to coordinate various ministries and launch a swift and violent attack on the Japanese invaders!
"Everyone, now even the Communist Party has spent all its capital to fight for its future and destiny. If there are still some among us who are stubborn and passive and avoid fighting, don't blame me for being rude!"
Subsequently, after more than two hours of meeting, a formal decision was made: In order to prevent various ministries from wrangling each other and consuming each other's strength, all local army units except the Guangxi Clan and Shanxi-Sui Army were transferred to designated locations in the rear for replenishment training for half a year.
Within the army, they were "improved" into troops directly under the central government, those who disobeyed were disbanded on the spot, and all war zones were re-planned and allocated.
The commander of the first theater, Cheng Qian, was commanded by Lu Yixuan on his behalf, mainly launching counterattacks from Boai to Xinxiang in northeastern Henan;
Yan Xishan, commander of the Second Theater Command, is responsible for the counterattack in northern Shanxi;
Li Zongren, commander of the Fifth War Zone, is responsible for operations in southern Hebei, northwest Shandong and western Shandong;
Li Pinxian, commander of the 10th War Zone, is responsible for operations in northern Jiangsu and southern Shandong;
Chen Cheng, commander of the 11th Theater Command, led the main force of the Central Army to launch a counterattack from eastern Shanxi along the Zhengtai Railway to the hinterland of the North China Plain, and regained Pingjin;
Fu Zuoyi, commander of the 11th World War Zone, marched from Suidong to Baotou and Zhangjiakou.
All ministries should do whatever it takes to regain all areas within the pass before the Anjia Army takes over the entire territory of Northeast China. They should stop the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army from big cities such as Pingjin, Jinan, and Qingdao, and establish the central government's effective control over Shandong and North China!
