The strongest militia

()(The campaign against the militia columns in North China has really attracted the attention of many domestic political forces who are concerned about the development of the militia columns. Seeing the military intelligence provided by their respective intelligence agencies, the leaders of these forces first reacted, this time in North China The militia column may be in danger.

These years, even the regular army has been defeated repeatedly against the regular divisions of the Japanese army. Even if they finally win some victories, it will be nothing more than a miserable victory.When it comes to winning battles, most of the cases are just covering up their own casualties.Now in front of the North China militia column, there are two reorganized divisions plus [-] to [-] North China garrisons.

These garrisons are not used to make up numbers, but the main force that actually has combat effectiveness and can fight against the domestic regular army when pulled out.Therefore, after receiving the information, the various forces, while sympathizing with the North China militia column, also felt whether they should give the other party some support.

Regardless of whether they admit it or not, this militia still attracted more than [-] Japanese troops on the domestic battlefield.This undoubtedly played a decisive role in the domestic situation of the Anti-Japanese War.Many forces know that if this militia column can survive this encirclement and suppression, they will also have a place in the resistance team from now on, unlike the current forces who think they are just a group of rabble with a large number of people .

Compared with the indifference of the government and surrounding forces, the People's Party Armed Eighth Route Army, which has participated in the front line of the Anti-Japanese War, is at a time when the North China militia column is extremely difficult.Committee Member Mao, who was in Yan'an, resolutely issued an order for the Eighth Route Army to enter North China as originally planned to carry out the war of resistance behind enemy lines.

And in order not to arouse the resentment of the militia column, he issued an order to unite in the war of resistance to several generals who entered North China to fight against the enemy's rear.In the absence of hostility from the other party, try to unite with the other party as much as possible, and strive to form complementary advantages with the other party to form a joint resistance war.No matter what the forces of all parties think, the intelligence personnel of the People's Party in the base areas still know more about the situation of the North China militia columns than other forces.

When Hu Guangzong led the troops on the North China East Road, he began to fight step by step, trying to kill the enemy's vital forces as much as possible and preserve his own strength.In the Taihang Mountains bordering Jiulong Mountain, a troop is advancing rapidly.

In comparison, the clothes of this army are not as good as those of the regular troops of the militia column, but it can be seen from the spirit of these soldiers that this kind of mountain road that is extremely difficult to walk in the eyes of ordinary people is not as good as it is for these soldiers. The feet are like flat ground.Not only can it maintain a fast march, but the formation of the team walking on the mountain road is also very complete.

In this fast-moving team, there was an officer whose temperament was similar to that of the militia column Xu Mingyuan, who was listening to the political commissar beside him jokingly saying: "Brigade Commander, didn't you always want to see that Deng Chenggong who impersonated you?" ? There must be a chance this time, but when you see the other party, what are you going to do with him?"

This person was Chen Geng, the brigade commander of the 129th Brigade of the 386th Division who had been successfully impersonated by Deng once.He was also awarded the rank of general when the military rank was assessed in the founding of the country. It is conceivable that his military exploits are still worthy of recognition by all the leaders of the founding of the country.

Chen Geng didn't care about the commissar's ridicule and said: "Why do you want to do something with him? The other party pretends to be me, which proves that I am famous, Chen Geng, and it's not a shame to say it. However, as far as I know, now North China There is chaos on the ground, and I am afraid it will be difficult to open up the situation when we are stationed this time!"

Thinking of the information about the militia column base sent by the People's Party's intelligence organization, Chen Geng admired the methods of the commander of the militia column.In less than three years, an army of more than [-] regular troops and more than [-] grassroots militiamen was assembled.You know, in terms of military strength alone, this number is comparable to that of the People's Party.Chen Geng was very curious about how the other party pulled up such a team.

Wang Xin, political commissar of the 386 brigade, saw that Chen Geng ignored his ridicule, and instead turned the topic to the upcoming battle situation.His expression also looked a little serious and he said: "Yes! There are two regular Japanese army divisions, and there are quite a few front-line combat troops of 20 to [-], not to mention that those little devils will send out puppet troops to help fight. After all, the total strength of the Japanese militia column to encircle and suppress this time is nearly [-]. With so many troops against a newly formed militia column, I have to say that the Japanese army attaches great importance to them!"

Chen Geng nodded with a smile at Wang Xin's political commissar and said, "If you were the commander of the North China Garrison, you would see that your ruled area, except for the county town, is all other people's territory. Even the food has to be transported from other places. How do you feel about being the commander of the garrison. I have to say that Commander Deng has a good strategic vision, but he underestimated the strength of the little devil. Otherwise, he is so low-key and still mobilized so many troops to encircle them."

While chatting, the two quickly followed the troops towards Xingtai. When they had just walked out of the Taihang Mountains and entered the Jiulong Mountain area, they went out to the vanguard troops responsible for reconnaissance and opening the way, and suddenly sent someone back to report to them that the vanguard troops had entered Jiulong Mountain There is a village called Shigu Village in the mountains.But when they were about to enter the village, they were suddenly blocked by a village-level squad of a militia column.In order not to cause misunderstandings by the other party, the avant-garde troops could only station outside the village, and instead sent someone back to inform their two bosses.

Well!It seems that the vigilance of this militia column is not generally high, and even such mountain villages have militia teams specially responsible for vigilance.When Chen Geng and Wang Xin, the political commissar, rushed forward, the moment they appeared, they saw this militia team with less than twenty members, except that the captain was wearing a pistol that only company-level officers could wear in their troops. In addition, the guns in the hands of the rest of the soldiers are all [-] big caps.If it weren't for the fact that the other party's clothing looked a little inconsistent, who would dare to say that this is a militia!

Luxurious!

Especially when Chen Geng unexpectedly discovered that there were actually two machine gunners on the hillside where he entered the village, he even sighed that compared with this militia squad, they were almost the same as the militia.Is this really just a village militia squad as the intelligence agent said?If even the village-level militia were armed like this, one could imagine how powerful the equipment of the regular troops of those militia columns would be.

Looking at the leader of the militia captain and seeing more and more soldiers under him, his face became a little more cautious.Chen Geng stepped forward and said, "Hello, comrade! I am the Eighth Route Army led by the People's Party. I am Chen Geng, commander of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army. This is Comrade Wang Xin, our political commissar."

People's Party!

Regarding this party, the militia captain seemed to have heard a little bit about it, so he relaxed a little and said: "Brigade Commander Chen, hello! I am Shi Xingshan, the captain of the Shigu village militia. I don't know that your army has arrived at the base of our North China militia column What are you doing?"

Chen Geng saw that the other party's words were reasonable, so he continued: "That's right, according to the requirements of our headquarters, our Eighth Route Army is preparing to fully enter the North China area to fight against the enemy's rear. We came here as a former army to contact you. Captain Shi, don't worry, we are here to fight the little devils with you. If possible, can you inform your superiors that we have arrived?"

When Captain Shi heard that they came to fight the little devils with them, he was still a little grateful and said: "Okay, in fact, we have already discovered that your people entered Jiulong Mountain. If you don't enter the village, we will not take the initiative to follow you." You made contact. We came forward to contact you only because we saw that you were not little devils. We just hoped that you would not enter the village, because most of the people in the village were transferred out when the army of little devils attacked our base area. The village, I'm afraid it will inevitably suffer some losses.

Because the landmines we planted in the village were all linked, we showed up to stop you in order to cause misunderstanding.I don't think it will be long before someone will be able to receive you.However, in order not to cause misunderstandings with our ambush troops, Brigadier Chen had better arrange for the troops to take a rest near here.Just don't go to the open space in front, we buried a big explosive bag below, hehe! "

Hearing what Captain Shi said, Chen Geng couldn't help but feel a chill, if the other party hadn't informed him in advance.The open space at the head of the village is undoubtedly more suitable for a large army like him to station and rest, but who would have known that a big guy was buried there.If you really walked inside without knowing it, you can imagine that without being aware of it, I'm afraid it might really cause heavy casualties.

Grinning his teeth, Chen Geng had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Thank you Captain Shi for your reminder, I will let the troops rest in place now. However, I think your location should be relatively remote. Your headquarters should send someone over after getting the news. Will it take a lot of time?"

Captain Shi laughed and said: "No, our secret sentry has spotted you since you entered Nine Dragon Mountain. If you didn't see the logo on your clothes, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to walk out of the mountain so smoothly. I'm really telling the truth This time, in order to prevent the little devils from easily offending our base area, there are many official militiamen who are familiar with jungle warfare hidden on every mountain road. As long as the little devils dare to enter the mountain, it is guaranteed that they will not be able to get in and out. Therefore, If my estimated time is right, the militia leaders near us should come over in about ten minutes."

Seeing the militia captain in front of him showing off a pocket watch to check the time, Chen Geng, whose mouth was full of smoky yellow front teeth, felt that the militia captain in front of him might not have the real character of him. The clothes on her body are so simple.But in a sense, the superior's instruction to fight jointly with the militia column was really right.

From the fact that the village-level militia squad in front of them can be equipped with two light machine guns, it can be guessed that the true strength of the North China militia column is estimated to be underestimated by many people.Perhaps Deng Chenggong, the commander of the North China militia column who has been quite mysterious since his appearance until now, might really surprise the Chinese people who are paying attention to this encirclement and suppression war.
