Yue Weihan was walking with Mr. Zhu among the majestic and ancient buildings.
The victory celebration meeting has ended, and the Central Army, Shanxi-Sui Army and the Eighth Route Army have also divided their spheres of influence.
The central Shanxi Basin went to the Jinsui Army, and southern Shanxi went to the Central Army. The Thirty-ninth Group Army got the pacification of eastern Shanxi, Yuxian, Shouyang, and Xiyang counties. The Eighth Route Army suffered the most, and only got Wutai and Ningwu.
Two counties, even if the four counties obtained by the Thirty-ninth Group Army were counted as the responsibility of the Eighth Route Army, they still suffered a big loss.
However, in terms of the distribution of prisoners of war and seizures, the Thirty-ninth Group Army and the Eighth Route Army accounted for the majority.
All the more than 28,000 Japanese prisoners of war belonged to the Thirty-ninth Army, and the captured equipment belonged to the Eighth Route Army.
For the Central Army and the Jinsui Army, the Japanese prisoners of war were a hot potato, which would only waste food. Although the captured Japanese weapons and equipment were large in quantity, if there was no ammunition supply, it would be the same as burning fire sticks, so it was better to take
These Japanese weapons and equipment were bargained with the 39th Group Army and the Eighth Route Army in exchange for some territory.
For the Eighth Route Army, the most lacking thing at this stage is weapons and equipment, so it has given up the dozen or so counties it deserves in exchange for more than 20,000 rifles and more than 200 machine guns, as well as more than 20 various types of guns.
Type artillery, although these are Japanese weapons, the Eighth Route Army originally relied on capture, so this was not a problem at all.
For the Thirty-ninth Army, the most affordable thing was the 2,800 Japanese prisoners of war.
These prisoners of war are all free laborers. They can be used to build bridges and pave roads, or to dig coal and mines. They only need to be provided with a small amount of rations every day to prevent them from starving to death. Once the Cangyan Mountain Industrial Zone is formed, this will
The profits that more than 20,000 Japanese prisoners of war can create will far exceed the little tax revenue that dozens of counties can provide.
Moreover, fighting for territory with the Jinsui Army will offend Lao Yan to death. The Thirty-ninth Army will have to stay near Jingxing Pass for a long time in the future. If the relationship with Chief Yan is too tense, he will not be a good person after all.
Therefore, it is better to simply sell another favor and exchange the dozen or so counties that we deserve for the 28,000 Japanese prisoners of war.
All in all, all parties present at the meeting were quite satisfied with the final distribution plan, and everyone was happy.
As soon as the conference ended, Chief Yan took everyone to Jinci Temple for sightseeing. Yue Weihan thought that Mr. Zhu must have something to say to him, so he left the crowd with an excuse and walked into a remote trail with Mr. Zhu.
"Boss, do the Party and Chairman Mao have any latest instructions for me?" Weihan asked softly when seeing no one around.
Mr. Zhu shook his head and said in a sincere tone: "Before leaving, Mr. Mao specially asked me to send you a message, saying that although you have joined the Communist Party of China not long ago, you are politically mature and militarily strong. What should you do?
You don’t need others to remind you when things shouldn’t be done, and you don’t need others to tell you what to do in the military.”
Yue Weihan said hurriedly: "Boss, what you said makes me very ashamed."
But Mr. Zhu said: "Your suggestions to the party deserve these words."
After saying this, Mr. Zhu said extremely seriously: "We, the Communist Party of China, have never wanted to establish a corrupt and dictatorial country. What we want is an independent, democratic, prosperous and powerful new China! So what you proposed,
The suggestion that we resolutely abandon some bad habits of the Soviet Communist Party is of great value."
Yue Weihan nodded and said: "The Soviet Union is now a complete dictatorship, and Stalin is a complete dictator. This kind of national model is definitely not what we Chinese Communists want, and our Chinese Communist Party never needs a dictatorship like Stalin.
leaders, so establishing a supervision mechanism is essential.”
Mr. Zhu nodded and said: "But at this stage, our main task is to win the war of resistance."
Yue Weihan suddenly remembered something again and asked: "Boss, when can Chairman Mao send over the batch of political cadres I asked for from Yan'an?"
"It's almost time." Mr. Zhu said, "When this class of anti-college students graduates, we will be able to send you a dozen or so students. Don't underestimate these dozen students. They are all trained from grassroots party organizations."
Although the theoretical level of graduates is not high, their practical work experience is quite rich, and they are especially good at mass work, so they are all top-notch experts."
"Great!" Yue Weihan was overjoyed when he heard this. With these dozen more generals in the party branch of the Thirty-ninth Group Army, Yue Weihan basically no longer has to worry about ideological and political work, and he can concentrate all his energy on the military.
, because what Communists are best at is ideological and political work.
At this time, Yue Weihan had no idea that a catastrophe was beginning in North China!
The Japanese army's revenge came much faster, bloody and tragic than people imagined!
Shun Tada, an old Japanese soldier, couldn't wait to show his ferocious fangs to the Chinese on his first day as commander of the North China Front.
Huojiatun is a small village in Nanxiao, Shimen City, only twenty miles away from Shimen.
At dusk, the farmers who had worked all day returned home one after another. Suddenly, smoke was rising from every household, and the whole village was bathed in the pastoral scenery of farmhouses with the smoke rising from the cooking pots and the smell of chickens and dogs.
But soon, the quiet pastoral scenery was shattered by the harsh roar of cars and three-wheelers.
A dozen tricycles and three large trucks rumbled into the playground at the entrance of the village. Immediately, hundreds of Japanese soldiers jumped out of the vehicles. These Japanese soldiers rushed into the village with bayonets in hand.
They killed people when they saw them, burned houses when they saw them, and robbed property and livestock when they saw them. In a short time, the whole village became a burning hell.
A seven or eight-year-old boy was playing in front of his house. When he heard the sound of footsteps and looked up, he saw a group of Japanese soldiers rushing up with bayonets in hand. The little boy immediately jumped up and shouted, "The Japanese are coming!"
He ran into his yard, but how could a child outrun an adult?
After running for only two steps, the Japanese caught up with him.
A Japanese sergeant pierced the little boy's vest with a knife. The little boy struggled twice, and his little head soon drooped weakly. His originally bright and dark eyes soon lost their original luster.
The little boy's father was feeding cows in the cattle pen. When his son screamed, he rushed out with a guillotine.
The two superior soldiers behind the Japanese sergeant pulled the trigger of the gun without hesitation. Only two gunshots were heard. The little boy's father was shot in the forehead and heart at the same time. He fell back without even having time to say a word.
In a pool of blood.
Immediately, a young woman in her thirties rushed out of the kitchen, with her several-month-old baby in her arms.
Seeing that her husband and eldest son had fallen into a pool of blood, the young woman's eyes suddenly darkened and she fell to the ground unconscious. The Japanese sergeant stared at the young woman's white breasts and laughed loudly, and immediately turned to the two Japanese soldiers behind him.
After making a gesture, the two Japanese soldiers caught two hens in the courtyard, turned around and retreated.
"Flower girl, Yossi." The Japanese military officer smiled lewdly and jumped on the young woman.
"Wow, wow, wow..." At this moment, the baby in the young woman's arms started crying loudly.
The young woman was also awakened by the cry of the child, and immediately began to struggle with all her strength. Seeing that the young woman still refused to give in, the Japanese military officer immediately became furious and knocked the young woman unconscious with one punch, and was about to continue tearing the young woman's clothes apart.
At this time, the child next to me kept crying, which made me very upset.
At that moment, the Japanese military officer became so courageous that he stabbed the child's little head with his saber.
The cry of the child suddenly stopped. The poor little guy came to this world less than five months ago. He left in a hurry before he even had time to call daddy and mommy. The young woman woke up from her coma just in time.
Seeing this tragic scene, he immediately vomited blood and passed out.
The same scene played out in the yards of every house in the village.
The little devils killed everyone they saw, even babies in their infancy, and robbed anything they saw, even the red-collared seeds that the common people had hidden in cellars. They killed women in the village, as well as eighty-year-old old ladies.
, girls as young as six or seven years old were all brutally murdered. These inhumane beasts would brutally kill all the women when they were done!
Under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, two Japanese soldiers, Captain Cao, were each dragging a sack through their noses to compare the results.
"Yagyu-kun, I already have one hundred and seven noses here, you will definitely lose this game!"
"Murai-kun, I'm afraid you are too happy too early. I have exactly one hundred and eight noses here. I will win one from you!"
The Japanese commander Cao, who was missing a "nose", immediately said unconvinced: "It doesn't count, today's doesn't count, we will continue tomorrow!"
"Keep going!" Another Japanese soldier, Commander Cao, said, "Tomorrow, you will still lose my nose!"
The two Japanese commanders put the rows of "noses" neatly arranged in front of them into sacks dripping with blood. These two inhuman beasts competed in the number of kills, and the "results" were already extremely rich.
, obviously, Huojiatun is definitely not the first village they massacred, and I'm afraid it won't be the last.
While the two men were putting their noses in their pockets, there was a military reporter beside them who pressed the camera shutter repeatedly.
Two full hours later, when the Japanese troops finally left, there was no one left alive in Huojiatun, not even a living dog left!
Hundreds of houses in the entire village were also burned down.
In the next half month, this scene was repeated repeatedly in North China!
Southern Hebei, Central Hebei, Eastern Hebei, Northern Hebei, Shandong, and Northern Shanxi, as long as they were areas with poor public security or areas with activities of Eighth Route Army guerrillas, all were bloodbathed by the Japanese army without exception.
Thousands of villages implemented the inhumane Three-Guang policy, and for a time, the entire land of North China was plunged into a bloody storm.
