The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 576

Time goes on.

The national army's communications department soon got news from the guerrillas who stayed in Zhongtiao Mountain for guerrilla operations.

Regarding the great victory of blowing up the three arsenals in Guizi County, the guerrillas who could be contacted did not take the initiative to admit it, but they did not deny it either.

If you admit it, for the national army who stayed in Zhongtiao Mountain to continue guerrilla warfare, but had no record, and was constantly besieged by the Japanese army, or surrendered or gave up.

Even if you are shameless, you can't be shameless to this extent.

It can be denied that the guerrillas of the national army are even more reluctant to do it. Everyone desperately stayed in the Zhongtiao mountainous area and continued to fight guerrillas. The current victory and glory do not belong to our guerrillas, but who else?
If it wasn't us, it might have been other guerrillas.

We just don't know.

In this regard, the understanding of the high-level national army is quite tacit. At the foreign anti-Japanese lecture, the high-level military officers of the national army explained:
"The Ministry of Communications has verified that the troops who blew up the three arsenals of the Japanese army in Zhongtiao Mountain were precisely our army's heroic combat troops who stayed in Zhongtiao Mountain in accordance with the strategic plan and persisted in fighting the Japanese army with guerrilla warfare."

"Which guerrilla group it is, due to the complex environment behind the enemy lines, it is impossible to establish effective communication, so it is not yet possible to determine."

"But there is no doubt that our army has won another great victory. My compatriots, please believe that our National Revolutionary Army will recover the mountains and rivers and drive away the Japanese invaders sooner or later!"

Then there was a straightforward American reporter who reported on the lecture and asked, "Then, may I ask this sir, when and how much troops will the national army use to attack Zhongtiao Mountain and recapture Zhongtiao Mountain?" Woolen cloth?"

"........."

American journalists should not be easily offended. The national army officer endured depression in his heart, forced a smile, and replied: "Please rest assured, our National Revolutionary Army will retake Zhongtiao Mountain sooner or later."

"Sooner or later, how early is it?"

"........."

"And I heard that this time the guerrillas in Zhongtiaoshan blew up several major arsenals where the devils hoarded ammunition. The Japanese army in Zhongtiaoshan is currently facing the problem of ammunition scarcity.

In addition, there was news that the main force of the Japanese army that launched the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain had also recently returned to aid Taiyuan City. At this moment, only a small part of the Japanese army remained in Zhongtiao Mountain. "

"Sir, don't you think now is the best time to launch an attack and retake Zhongtiao Mountain?"

The officer of the national army was asked about the tenderness in the inside and the coke in the outside, and he scolded this Yankee meddling in his heart. He could speak fluent Chinese, but he asked questions so sharply.

The tens of thousands of people who came to the briefing showed hope, looking forward to the reply from the representatives of the national army.

Cough cough--

"It's like this. We have reported this specific intelligence news. The Military and Political Department is making deployments. If the attack plan is determined, troops will definitely be sent."

The American reporter then asked again: "Although I don't know anything about military affairs, I still know that there is a military term in China that says that soldiers are precious and fast.

Doesn't the officer think that this matter should be decided as soon as possible, instead of procrastinating and deliberately procrastinating, which will cause the war opportunity to be delayed? "

National Army officer: "..."

Where the hell did this bastard Yankee come from?
It's more annoying than the buzzing flies in the latrine.

In the end, under repeated inquiries from American reporters, the national army officer in charge of the briefing was a little embarrassed, so he had to respond hastily:

"This is a big matter, and I have to report to my superiors. As for the specific answer, everyone will be notified later!"

Talk about hastily announcing the end of the lecture, and fled.

The crowd was disappointed for no reason. After leaving the venue one after another, the American reporter also turned to a remote corner and saw Shen Wenyue waiting here.

"Elder, your questioning just now was amazing!"

Shen Wenyue smiled brightly and gave the American reporter a thumbs up.

Elder said with a smile: "Shen, the main thing is that you guided well. I just have some doubts now, whether the national military government will take this opportunity to send troops to attack Zhongtiao Mountain."

Shen Wenyue expressed helplessness and said: "We can't decide these things, but my task is finally completed."

……

After the national army officer returned to the headquarters, he reported the questions asked by the American reporter and the public's reaction to his superiors.

In this regard, the high level of the national army also has some headaches.

Right now, the national army has taken the initiative to admit that the bombing of the devil's arsenal in Zhongtiaoshan County was done by the national army guerrillas, and public opinion has pushed the national army to the forefront.

He wanted to use this victory in blowing up the devil's arsenal to restore the decadence of the humiliating defeat in Zhongtiao Mountain.

Then the follow-up series of measures are too important.

You can’t be duplicity, admit to the public that our country’s army did the bombing of the devil’s arsenal, and then simply act like a turtle and give up the chance that the main force of the devils left Zhongtiao Mountain, the arsenal was bombed again, and the ammunition is insufficient. , stand still, right?

As for the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that is really in front of us, the senior officials of the national army don't think much about it.

These guys who are vegetarians are pretty consistent in their thinking:
Now that a large-scale attack is launched, it will definitely not work to regain Zhongtiao Mountain.

The disastrous defeat at the Battle of Zhongtiaoshan has taught the national army to be a man with bloody facts. Facing the powerful Japanese army, the morale of the national army has already dropped to freezing point.

How ironic is this situation?

Even if the Japanese army voluntarily withdrew from Zhongtiao Mountain, the national army, like a frightened bird, would not dare to regain Zhongtiao Mountain.

"Even if you beat it down, you can't hold it at all."

"If the Japanese army is angered again, and the main force of the Japanese army goes south again, it will not be us who will be happy, but the Eighth Route Army!"

In the end, all parties reached a consensus.

"A fight must be fought, whether it is to appease the will of the people, or to confirm the victory of Zhongtiaoshan in blowing up the devil's arsenal."

"But we must pay attention to controlling the scale, so as not to really annoy the Japanese army."

"It's enough to send two troops symbolically to fight. If they failed to take down Zhongtiao Mountain, at least they would take advantage of the opportunity to publicize the image of our party and country's soldiers fighting bravely."

... "It is unrealistic to expect the national army to seize the opportunity, show the courage, and re-attack Zhongtiao Mountain!"

"Taking advantage of the bombing of the devil's arsenal and the scarcity of ammunition, we have temporarily reduced our troops and stopped the sweep. This is a good opportunity for our mountain company to take the opportunity to expand outward and develop a guerrilla zone."

"In addition to the development of the scale and equipment of the mountain company, the more important thing is that we need to establish contact with the people in the Zhongtiao Mountain guerrilla zone, and ensure a relatively stable logistics supply. We have to support so many soldiers in our mountain company."

Temporary residence in the deep mountains.Han Feng said this when expressing his views on the subsequent development direction of the Mountain Company.

Zhang Min said helplessly: "The land in Zhongtiao Mountain is barren. In addition, the current outbreak of war will affect all villages to some extent. The life of the villagers is already very difficult. It is not a big deal to count on the villagers as our logistical support." In reality, it will also increase the burden on the villagers, and it will not work for the time being."

He changed the subject, "Fortunately, there are many patriotic righteous men in the enemy-occupied areas and counties who secretly supported our mountain company's operations."

"Especially Reporter Shen's father, Mr. Shen, who has provided us with food and supplies since we were in Zhongtiao Mountain."

Han Feng said: "So strengthening the connection with the villages and the patriotic people in the enemy-occupied areas and counties is one of them. We must ensure that the secret channel of the secret connection is opened and stabilized."

"In addition, we have to fight on two fronts. This is also the way our regiment leader has always been particular about fighting the enemy. On the outside, our guerrillas will deal with the Japanese army. On the inside, we will try to develop the enemy's industrial department, establish a military engineering team behind the enemy, and an underground intelligence station inside the county."

"Two-line connection, internal and external development, with the continuous consolidation of the root and the outward expansion of the guerrilla zone, and finally surrounded the county with the countryside."

"This is the general direction of our mountain company's future development."

Lianchang Zhang and Lianchang Du nodded frequently, expressing their agreement.

……

At the same time, around the garrison of the [-]th Regiment of the Jinsui Army in Northwest Shanxi, something happened that the Japanese Army, the Eighth Route Army, and the National Army were completely unexpected.

It was not long after the military government in the Kuomintang-controlled area announced to the outside world that it was about to send troops to Zhongtiao Mountain to recover the lost ground.

The [-]th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, led by its commander Chu Yunfei, unexpectedly launched an attack on two Japanese-controlled towns near its base, wiped out the two Japanese troops in the town, and occupied the town. .

The outbreak of this battle was as shocking as stone breaking, and all parties were shocked.

It is not a big battle situation, but the deep meaning contained in it makes all parties think.

Is this a signal that Yan Laoxi's Jinsui army is preparing to fight the Japanese army to the death?

The news that the [-]th Regiment took the initiative to attack the Japanese army and captured two important towns spread to the second theater commander's department.

The officers of the Jinsui Army Commander's Department, who did not give orders at all, thought that Commander Yan would be furious.

Who would have thought that after the shrewd-looking Chief Yan had calculated in his heart, unexpected joy would appear in his not-so-big eyes.

"Good fight!"

"This is the character of a soldier, and this is what our Jinsui Army should look like!"

"Don't people in the world doubt my determination to fight Japan this time? This is my best statement."

"Okay, okay!"

After Officer Yan's series of compliments, the officers of the Commander's Department were completely dumbfounded.

Then, the Jinsui Army took the initiative to attack with the [-]th Regiment, and the news that the Japanese army had taken down the important town was vigorously publicized. Through various newspapers, the news was overwhelming, for fear that the outside world would not know that he had such a brave army under the Jinsui Army.

As for the representatives sent by Yan Zhangguan in front of the Japanese, they had won the true biography of Yan Zhang Guan, and they complained so much that they almost had snot and tears.

"You can't blame our Chief Yan, you can't blame our Jinsui Army!
It is the highest order from the national army, saying that it is declaring war on your Japanese army and recovering Zhongtiao Mountain.

As soon as these [-] regiments got confused, they beat up your two towns. "

"Return? It's still impossible to pay back. Aren't you forcing us to admit to the world that we have an affair with your Japanese army?"

"It can't be helped, really, this must not be what our Chief Yan thinks!"

"Misunderstanding, a big misunderstanding! Please rest assured, your army, such misunderstandings will definitely not happen again in the future."

……

As for the [-]th Regiment of the Jinsui Army.

Fang Ligong, chief of staff of the [-]th Regiment, looked at his regiment leader at this moment, which had the meaning of "looking up from a high mountain".

Everything was as expected by the Tuan Zuo, the timing of this battle was just right, the little devil had to hold his nose and admit defeat after taking down two important towns.

There was no follow-up retaliation.

Now, his [-] regiment has become famous in the first battle...
