Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 884

In the next seven days, Tang Dao was extremely busy.

First, he led the four regiments to the "Dakouzi" cave station that was replaced from the 921 Division at a great cost. The place was exactly as he imagined. At a glance, the most numerous things were stones.

The mountain roads are so rugged and narrow that even large vehicles with a width of less than 1.6 meters are difficult to pass in many places, so that the officers and soldiers had to unload the materials from the large vehicles, carry them through the dangerous mountain roads purely by manpower, and then use large vehicles to transport them. .

Undoubtedly, this greatly slowed down the difficulty of marching!

This also indirectly explains the basic reason why in time and space, the Japanese army dispatched 5,000 troops in a nearly sneak attack. Before the main force of the 921 Division returned, they were still defeated by the defense group with only one-half of its strength.

The terrain here is really easy to defend but difficult to attack! Even if the Japanese army had planes to assist, Tang Dao judged from standing on the top of the stone peak and looking into the distance that heavy aerial bombs would not be able to do much against this stone mountain with crisscrossed ravines.

What's more, from the perspective of Tang Dao, a future little butterfly, this land is not just the miraculous craftsmanship of nature that gives it natural defense. With Brigadier Cheng's precedent of tunnel fighting in the Icefield War, Tang Dao has already According to the plan, Bai Sheng's engineering company will expand into the largest company-level force in the entire Si Xing Regiment within the next year.

Of course, except for the formal establishment of more than 200 people, the others are all reserve forces. They are selected from the local mountain people. They do not have to go to the front line to carry guns. They only have to work hard and receive corresponding rewards. It should not be difficult for such young and strong people to do so. trick.

In addition, during the two days when the Sixings Regiment was waiting for contact between Tang Dao and the 683 Brigade, the families of the 500 recruits recruited from Xuzhou also rushed outside the mountain. Except for a few stragglers, more than 90% arrived before In the predetermined area, Zhuang Shisan specially sent a guard company and some recruits to take them into Taihang Mountain.

Even though most of these family members are old people, children and women, who are said by many to be a burden, only Tang Dao knows that there will be at least five factories around Dakouzi Cave. In addition to a small number of skilled workers, there is a shortage of It's the general workers.

Women will become the most important part of these general workers, and the elderly can take good care of their children at home and do housework within their ability. The children will eventually grow up safely.

This war will last much longer than the most optimistic soldiers expected!

They can not only exchange their labor for remuneration and survive in this troubled world, but also use their own hands to make bullets that can be fired at the Japanese invaders, and they can also raise China's future. This is three birds with one stone.

Not to mention the two thousand old, weak, women and children, Tang Dao even thought about sending expatriates out to absorb the displaced refugees when the station gradually stabilized, thereby increasing the population around the station.

These refugees will not compete with local mountain people for land and food. They rely on work to support themselves and their entire families.

Of course, in this case, more factories will need to be located in the area and their profits will have to be guaranteed. This will form a virtuous cycle.

Tang Dao has no control over other places, but in this barren mountain, an industrial zone can initially be formed that relies on light industry and machinery industry to support everyone.

This industrial zone can not only continuously export clothing, arms and other products to the Chinese military and civilians throughout the north, but also support a group of workers who rely on labor to support themselves, without being so thirsty for land, and gradually abandoning purely agricultural life needs.

Tang Dao's idea is beautiful, but it is not so easy to implement. First of all, the geographical environment here is really bad. It is difficult to transport materials in, and it is equally difficult to transport them out. With this terrain, in a peaceful era, the cliff This is an area that capital doesn't take a serious look at.

But everything has two sides. In peacetime, this is a place where birds can't poop. But in wartime, the blood-sucking worm of capital considers how to survive. The place where the fire of war cannot burn is paradise.

What? Is the mountain high and the road difficult to walk? That's nothing, it's just paying people to hire donkeys to carry the bags on their shoulders!

As long as the Japanese can't come in, the capitalists can tell you for 10,000 reasons that this place is much better than Jiangnan.

The second most important thing is profit! No capitalist will do business at a loss, otherwise he would rather die. No matter how patriotic we are, the nature of capitalists pursuing profit will not change.

Tang Dao can sustain it for a while just by drawing big cakes, but it will never last long. If he wants to form a virtuous circle, he can only help them find the market. Then there need to be successful examples. Fortunately, those who were fooled by Tang Dao were confused. Lao Jia and others are already taking action. A large number of machinery and equipment have already begun to be transferred to the Western Province before the departure of the Four Troops. As soon as the situation in Tangdao stabilizes, at least two factories will be transferred from the Western Province. Enter Jindong.

The other most important point is how Tang Dao can ensure the safety of the Si Xing Regiment.

This is actually the simplest and easiest thing to do for Tang Dao.

Fists are the best proof!

Of course, that was a fist hitting the Japanese invaders!

This is the first battle in Jindong. Tang Dao tells the capitalists who are still watching that not only does Jindong have him, but there are also the brave and capable 921 Division, the Japanese invaders with aircraft and heavy artillery, and maybe I will also fight on the plains. Not sure about them, but in this big mountain, it is the Chinese who have the final say.

Letting you occupy the county seat and hoard supplies is just a matter of lending you a place. After a while, I will ask you to collect rent. The rent is the lives and supplies of the Japanese.

In fact, for a long time before that old man Gangcun became the commander of the Japanese North China Front, the three infantry divisions of the 80th Group Army active in the mountainous areas did exactly this.

It's just that they are not as domineering as Tang Dao said, treating the county town as a rented warehouse. After all, they lack artillery, and it is difficult to consider the tactic of attacking fortresses for the time being. Their main goal is to attack and disrupt transportation lines.

As long as it is materials, they must be transported, and if they are to be transported, there must be roads. Very simple logic!

Japanese troops who are afraid of being attacked often use heavy troops to **** them, but if they can only commit thieves for a thousand days, how can they guard against thieves for a thousand days? After transporting ten times, or even twenty times, I only attacked once. It was like a hard kick to the Japanese army, wasn't it?

As for the Japanese's plans and routes for transporting supplies, why are most of them well known to their opponents? This is probably a stubborn problem that even the Japanese themselves cannot solve.

It is true that there are too many traitors!

Yes, in order to survive, there should not be too many traitors who bend down and offer their knees, lick their faces and call Taijun.

Post-war records show that during the entire Anti-Japanese War, the Chinese Anti-Japanese Army annihilated nearly 1.28 million puppet troops. When Japan surrendered, there were approximately 1.46 million puppet troops and more than 400,000 puppet police. In addition to the national army and police of the puppet Manchukuo, during the Anti-Japanese War The total number of traitors serving Japan at that time can be said to be over 3 million, which is more than the total number of Japanese invaders in China.

These traitors who have forgotten their ancestors have brought shame to the people of the country and become China's shame! It also added huge obstacles to China's Patriotic War. No matter how weak their combat effectiveness was, they were not a bunch of pigs. Even if they were pigs, they would still kick and bite them when killing them, wouldn't they?

But as the old saying goes, everything has two sides. While the Japanese army used a large number of traitors to maintain their rule over the occupied areas, they had to accept the fact that these traitors who did not want Bilian at all were very likely to confront them during the day. If you flatter him and call him "Taijun", he might talk about the little devil in the evening. Then he can feel at ease and take a roll of money and sell the devil to the prince.

The proportion does not need to be too large. As long as there is 1%, the Japanese will have been sold out. That is to say, the status of most traitors will not be very high. Otherwise, the commander of the Japanese North China Front would just change his crotchless pants in the morning. That's where you'll know if there are any holes in your crotch pants.

What's more, faced with such a large number of traitors who have taken refuge in themselves, how can the Japanese distinguish which ones are true and which are false?

This also resulted in that throughout the Great Patriotic War, the Japanese had to fight the Chinese army from the front, and at the same time spend a lot of energy competing with almost all Chinese in the occupied areas. Overt and covert battles were everywhere.

Of course, not to mention the hundreds of millions of Chinese and pugs in the occupied areas, who can turn a person's head into a pig's head when screened, are the Japanese themselves really that trustworthy?

Japanese people have never been monolithic. It is true that most people support the war, but after all, there are also those who do not support the war and believe that launching this war will drag the island nation into an abyss.

So, you know, it's a completely impossible task.

Although countless Chinese people paid their lives in this invisible war, every piece of information they sent out would also cost the Japanese people blood!

This is the Patriotic War. Every minute and every second, lives are lost. Both China and Japan are injured!

However, the war has begun, and it will not end unless one side falls!

Just as Tang Dao, who stood on the top of the mountain and looked into the distance, said: Jindong, we are here! 108th Division, die!

The road to the station was difficult and dangerous, but what was gratifying was that before entering the station, the 47th Army, which had been contacted by the Fourth Army Group via telegraph, sent their baggage regiment.

Yes, when he learned that the Four Lines Regiment had brought an infantry regiment and equipment to the east of Shanxi all the way, Commander Li of the 47th Army, who would later have his name engraved in the list of hundreds of famous anti-Japanese generals, was in a state of emotion at that time. Lost control, burst into tears.

It was not that he was excited about the equipment of an infantry regiment, but that he was extremely sad. The Battle of Dongyang Pass broke out a week ago. His infantry division faced most of the Japanese infantry brigade. He had a strength advantage, but he used only a few mortars against dozens of Japanese artillery pieces. More than 2,000 Sichuan soldiers shed blood at Dongyang Pass. battlefield.

It doesn't need to be more, but if there are ten or even six more mortars, the number of casualties will be reduced by one-half. The four-line regiment arrived a little late.

But, what can he blame the Si Xing Tuan for? The 43rd Army sent a battle report. The four-line regiment set out from northern Jiangsu and fought two battles against the Japanese invaders in Henan Province. In one and a half months, they carried dozens of tons of supplies. They had no cars and relied solely on manpower and pack horses, spanning two thousand miles. Rush to Jin Province.

This is a military order and a favor!

Although Tang Dao was just a small colonel, the 47th Army still made an exception and sent a division-level officer to lead the baggage regiment. After communicating with the 683rd Brigade, they met up with the Four Lines Regiment in their defense area and received this batch of equipment.

At that time, Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang, who came to greet him on behalf of the 863 Brigade, was so greedy that he almost wet the chest of his military uniform with saliva.

Since Commander Guo has already had an affair with the 47th Army, the two sides have reached a tacit understanding. The Si Xing Regiment will not return to the construction for the time being and will stay in eastern Shanxi to fight. It is nominally under the jurisdiction of the 47th Army. The 'Transportation Regiment' and the baggage regiment that came to receive it are considered to belong to the same army. , plus there are quite a few Sichuan troops in the Si Xing Regiment. Even if the accents of eastern Sichuan and northern Sichuan are slightly different, the familiar accent will naturally increase the friendliness.

The division-level officer of the 47th Army did not put on airs in front of Tang Dao, a 'subordinate' who was two levels lower. Instead, he enthusiastically invited Tang Dao and the Sixings Group to the defense area where the 47th Army was located, and specially selected a few places. Good location.

And through the statement of this division-level officer, although he did not draw a direct conclusion, it generally means that as long as Tang Dao is willing to go, regardless of whether the superiors agree or not, the position of a brigade-level unit commander has been reserved for him. In order to give Shangfeng some face, the military rank can remain unchanged temporarily, but the change from three stars to one star will never take more than two years.

Tang Dao naturally knew that this must be the decision of the commander surnamed Li. No one could refuse a strong general like Tang Dao and an elite like the Four Lines Group.

From school officer to general officer, it may seem like only one step away, but for 95% of school officers, this step is a natural chasm that will be difficult to overcome in their lifetime.

Even people like Commander Guo dare not tell Tang Dao a clear time like this one. You can imagine the difficulty.

But this man dares to say that he naturally has his confidence. After the main force of the 22nd Army rushed to Xuzhou, the 47th Army that stayed in eastern Shanxi was actually the main force of the Sichuan Army in the northern battlefield. Since the death of the King of Sichuan Province surnamed Liu years ago, the 47th Army was behind The big boss immediately became one of the most important people in Sichuan Province.

In fact, this person's confidence is not without reason. In the past time and space, the commander of the 22nd Army will return to Sichuan Province soon and ascend to the throne of Chairman of Sichuan Province, and this person will also be promoted to the Army Group in a year's time Commander, with such a background, ensuring that Tang Dao is promoted is definitely not an empty promise!

You want to say that Tang Dao was not tempted at that moment, that is impossible.

It is not because his military rank will be qualitatively improved and he will become a general who can return home in glory, but because he can lead more troops to fight the Japanese invaders in an honest and fair manner.

Can the number of Japanese troops killed by commanding 2,000 men be the same as commanding 6,000 men?

But Tang Dao finally resisted the sudden temptation!

The 47th Army and their commanders indeed proved their determination to resist Japan in the future, which was another glory for the Sichuan Army.

However, they are still someone's chess pieces after all, and it won't be long before they go to the battlefield in the Central Plains.

The reason why Tang Dao came to the northern battlefield is that he no longer wants to be someone's chess piece that can be matched casually. He wants to lead his army and the 921st Division to create his own piece of the sky in this mountain.

With the strength of a mere regiment, he cannot save more people, but if he can work together with that army, he can protect this mountain that stretches more than 400 kilometers across the motherland and divides the east and west.

Even, in the future, their tentacles may extend further north.

The superior terrain here allows for retreat, defense and attack, just like a knife placed in front of the Japanese North China Front Army, ready to stab them at any time.

I want to play? Come on! Come here and hit me! When he thought of this, it was hard not to see Mou Teng's mean expression in front of Tang Dao's eyes!

Staying in Taihang, blatantly put on a show of "I want to kill me, but I can't!" ' A group of four elements that looks like this will definitely make the Japanese heartbroken to death.

Of course, the most important reason for this, the division-level officer who was extremely disappointed because of Tang Dao's rejection three seconds later, never imagined that it was not that the thighs of his 47th Army were not thick enough, but that the thighs of the 80th Army were thicker.

Perhaps even the Eightyth Army himself did not realize it at this moment. In a few years, let alone one group army, I am afraid that ten group armies will not be able to accommodate it!

But no one dares to blame Tang Dao, because Tang Dao also has enough confidence. The equipment of the infantry regiment sent across thousands of miles is not so much a supplement as a gift from the 43rd Army. If not replaced with anything else, it will be replaced by four The independence of the group.

The two bosses have already agreed that the leadership is only nominal. All military operations of the Fourth Army Regiment only need to be registered with the military department. The autonomy lies with them, and the required military pay is raised by themselves, without the 47th Army having to worry about it.

To put it bluntly, the so-called subordinate relationship is just for the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs to see.

In the view of the commander surnamed Li, this is normal. Eastern Sichuan and northern Sichuan have always been at odds with each other. Since they want to get a share of the northern battlefield, they secretly resort to this trick, which will easily lead to a step-by-step attack. Giving the Corps to yourself and recruiting it are just efforts, and it is normal not to get it.

Since it couldn't really become a system, the division-level officer didn't bother much. He received the equipment and left. He made no other contribution, but it reduced a lot of the burden on the Four Lines Regiment.

Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang's saliva was certainly not in vain. The equipment promised to the 683 Brigade was delivered the next day. It was signed by Director Wang of the 683 Brigade and the 772nd Regiment was responsible for receiving it.

Hello guys, Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang wiped his saliva with his backhand and waved at the director of the political office of his regiment. Within an hour, more than a thousand people from two infantry battalions arrived running.

That was obviously well prepared. If Tang Dao dares to break his promise and refuses to give it, these more than a thousand people will

They had to come to the four-line group to eat. Judging from their appetite, just eating plain rice would probably give Chief of Staff Zhuang Da a headache for several days.

But just like that, people come from afar to carry supplies, why can't the Four-Hand Group solve the problem of food and clothing for them?

Without further ado, just ask for two pancakes per person!

Anyway, with Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang's face, even a single meal would be small, and the reception would be slower. The two infantry battalions of the 772nd Regiment can feed each other for a day, so Tang Dao Juebi believes it.

In just two days, the "heavy transportation group" of the Si Xing Regiment was completely transformed into a light transportation group. Otherwise, how could it be so "easy" to go to the new station?

But that's it! Comrade "Wang Xiaoqiang" is thick-skinned, but he keeps his promise. On the second day after the Si Xing Regiment arrived at "Dakouzi Cave", in addition to leaving the necessary defensive forces, he took the two infantry battalions of the 772 Regiment and the organization The 2,000 militiamen were summoned and rushed over carrying large trees.

That is to say, they were in charge of the food, and no one asked for any compensation. Including the 3,000 members of the Si Xing Tuan and the two thousand family members, there were a total of seven to eight thousand people working on the temporary construction of the Si Xing Tuan residence.

Sleeping in the mountains is a daily routine for soldiers, but it cannot continue like this for a long time. Not to mention that the human body is either steel or steel. If it is not properly maintained, it can also be corroded.

If you want to maintain combat effectiveness, logistics must be done well!

In five days, a large number of wooden houses and stone houses, including the dangerous checkpoint fortifications around the station, were all built!

Tang Dao, after bidding farewell to the officers, soldiers and militiamen of the 772 regiment who came to help, held a military meeting of officers above the company level of the Fourth Line Regiment.

Meeting topic: Send troops to Licheng!
