Part III The Bloody War of Resistance Chapter 9 The Rush Chapter 10 The Storm

The Yellow River in autumn is like a bound yellow dragon, becoming gentle and calm. The sound of cannons has gradually disappeared. The traces of war are still clearly visible everywhere. The dead bodies have been buried. The white banners on the graves flutter in the autumn wind. The destroyed houses and the land that are blackened with smoke can be found everywhere.

The excitement of liberation is still overflowing in the air. The Shandong Provincial Provisional Government ordered that in order to restore the war economy, the agricultural tax was exempted for two years, and the commercial tax was reduced to 5%, and the land rent could only be charged up to 30%, and the factory was exempted from business tax for two years. With this series of laws to restore the economy, a large number of working teams were also sent to various places.

Zhuang Jihua convinced Chiang Kai-shek in Chongqing to boldly launch newcomers in Shandong. The situation in Shandong is very complicated. GCD occupied nearly half of Jiaodong and about one-third of the Yimeng Mountains. The two parties' territories are intertwined and it is easy to get fire. More importantly, the two parties will inevitably have fierce competition in Shandong in the future.

This kind of competition is first of all, a struggle between the people. The GCD troops are very economically difficult. The National Government announced that agricultural tax exemption in Shandong was exempted, which puts pressure on the GCD. If they continue to collect public grain, the National Government will have a great advantage.

After persuading Chiang Kai-shek, Zhuang Jihua proposed his own list of members of the Shandong Provincial Government, including provincial chairman Teng Jie, secretary-general Zhang Liyuan, security commander Gong Chu, and deputy commander Yang Yuchun. Not only Chiang Kai-shek, but also He Yingqin and Bai Chongxi were surprised. In such an important area in Shandong, two GCD rebel generals were sent, which would cause a huge shock among the ** generals.

To this end, Zhuang Jihua gave a detailed explanation. Although Gong Chu and Yang Yuchun were GCD rebels, promoting them out of order will have a huge impact on GCD personnel; secondly, because they have experience in GCD and are familiar with GCD's combat methods; in the end, they rebel against GCD, so they are politically credible.

But Chiang Kai-shek still disagreed, believing that the staffing was too young, so he finally decided to let He Siyuan serve as the chairman of Shandong Province, and Teng Jie was in charge of the Shandong Party and also serve as the secretary-general. Gong Chu and Yang Yuchun had no problem with their qualifications, so Gong Chu would not say anything about it. A few years ago, he was the deputy chief of staff of the theater. Yang Yuchun also graduated from Huangpu's third class. He had only had GCD experience, so he had never been valued. However, Chiang Kai-shek was still worried. He Yingqin and Bai Chongxi also thought it was inappropriate. In the end, Chiang Kai-shek decided to appoint Yu Xuezhong as the commander of Shandong security, and the deputy commander was Yang Yuchun.

He Siyuan was the chairman of Shandong Province, Lian Zhuang Jihua, and could not object to him. He Siyuan is a famous education expert in China. He has served as the director of the Shandong Education Department since 1928. For more than ten years, no matter how the provincial chairman changes, he has held this position. During this period, Shandong education has made great progress.

After the war of resistance began, the Japanese army invaded Shandong, and Han Fuju abandoned the city and fled. As a civil servant, He Siyuan could have retreated with the provincial government, but he did not. He stayed in Shandong and organized a guerrilla team to be active in the Liaocheng to Jinpu line in northern Shandong. He Siyuan enjoyed a high reputation in Shandong. Not only did his disciples and former officials spread all over Shandong, but his personality and strength were also very high. The generals and gcd guerrillas behind the enemy were even submissive to him. During the fall, He Siyuan's people were unobstructed even in the enemy-occupied areas.

Yang Yuchun has been insisting on the war behind enemy lines in Shandong in recent years. He first advanced to Weishan Lake, and later advanced to central Shandong and established a base in the mountains of Laiwu to Tai'an. It was not until this Shandong battle that he was squeezed out by the Japanese army. In the past few years behind enemy lines, he was the only one in Shandong. The conflict with the Eighth Route Army New Fourth Army was very beneficial. Unlike Qin Qirong, Yang Yuchun fought more cleverly and had stronger political initiative.

When Zhuang Jihua was dealing with family affairs in Chongqing, the pursuit of Youmo Jingsan was over. After being blocked by the Zhongxun Team, he divided the troops into three groups, got out of the incomplete encirclement of the Zhongxun Team, and fled into the central Hebei region. Zhuang Jihua set the bottom line of pursuit as Cangshi Highway, and then stopped chasing after crossing this line. The more than 60,000 troops of Youmo Jingsan, there were only more than 10,000 people left, and they met with the vanguard of the Ninth Division who came to reinforce in Hebei.

The gunfire in the entire war zone calmed down, and both sides stopped tiredly to count the results. For the Zhongzhang team, the results of this combat were undoubtedly extremely huge. China recovered the entire Shanxi, the entire Shandong, north of the Huaihe River, most of Anhui, and the entire Henan. The troops were heading towards the North China Plain, and the troops were approaching the city of Pingjin.

On October 10, colorful flags were flying in Jinan City. The former headquarters of the 12th Japanese Army, generals gathered in Jinan, including Tang Enbo's Western Front generals in Europe. A long red picture was hung on the temporary rostrum, with three big characters written on it, and the celebration meeting. He Yingqin, a representative of the base camp, read the commendation order from the Central Government and the Military Commission at the meeting, awarded the martial arts certificate of the First Mechanized Army, the New 12th Army, and the 24th Army, and awarded more than 1,600 people including Zhuang Jihua, Du Yuming, Lan Yundong, Song Xilian, Yang Sen, Sun Zhen and more than 1,600 people.

Jinan famous people and representatives of the people of the people of Shandong read a letter of gratitude on behalf of the people of Shandong. The new Shandong Provincial Chairman He Siyuan announced the policy program of the Shandong Provincial Government. In this program, He Siyuan focused on the front-line transfer to comprehensively implement social reforms in Shandong, strictly implement rent and interest reduction, and mobilize the people of the province to work together to heal the trauma of the war.

Zhuang Jihua then went on stage to speak. In this speech, Zhuang Jihua reiterated the need for social reform. "Shandong has millions of people who can provide hundreds of thousands of troops, fertile land and abundant minerals. As long as we can make up our minds, we will definitely build Shandong into a base for the War of Resistance."

However, the matter in Shandong is not that simple. The world is coming out of Shandong. Shandong has only cared about the area with many bandits since then. After the War of Resistance Against Japan, the bandits in Shandong also divided. Some bandits surrendered and became puppet troops, some remained the best, continued to be bandits, and some were invested in GCD; on the contrary, there were very few who defected to the Kuomintang. The reason was actually very simple. When these bandits went up the mountain to become bandits, a large part of the reason was that the government was in conflict with each other, and it was very difficult for them to surrender to the government.

Secondly, Shandong suffered a lot of losses in this battle. Liaocheng, Jinan, Tai'an, Jining and other places were extremely damaged, and there were millions of war refugees. Winter was approaching, and relief of refugees became the top priority.

At this meeting, Zhuang Jihua came up with the old methods, combining military and civilians, and set up a refugee relief committee in Jinan to help refugees rebuild their homes in the military.

After the celebration meeting, He Yingqin presided over the meeting of senior generals in the war zone that afternoon. This time Chiang Kai-shek did not come to Shandong for two reasons. First, after Zhuang Jihua left, he decided to personally intervene in the negotiations with GCD; second, the Tehran meeting was about to be approached and he had no time to come to Shandong, so He Yingqin announced it.

He Yingqin announced at this meeting that the Jiangbei War Zone would be divided into the Jianghuai War Zone and the North China War Zone. The commander of the North China War Zone, Zhuang Jihua, deputy commander Tang Enbo, and Sun Lianzhong; the commander of the Jianghuai War Zone, Guan Linzheng, deputy commander Li Pinxian. At the same time, the troops were adjusted, including the 21st Army, the Fourth Army, the 15th Army, the 92nd Army, the 46th Army, and the newly formed Sichuan Army 29th Army, the Sulu-Huan-An Border Area Guerrilla Corps and other former southern combat troops. However, what made Guan Linzheng a little dissatisfied was that his direct unit, the New 12th Army, was included in the North China War Zone.

In the process of allocating troops, He Yingqin and Zhuang Jihua had the same attitude. Considering the upcoming decisive battle in North China, they did not dare to weaken the troops of the North China War Zone. All the troops with strong combat effectiveness remained in the North China War Zone.

The combat areas of the Jianghuai War Zone include Jiangsu, Anhui, Hubei, North China War Zone, Hebei, Henan, Shandong Chahar and other places. In addition, Chiang Kai-shek ordered the New Eighth Army and 112th Army from the Myanmar War Zone to the North China War Zone. This incident also caused protests from Stilwell, and the only 66th Army and 58th Army remained in the Myanmar War Zone.

After such adjustments, the North China Theater includes the First Army, the Second Army, the Fifth Army, the Twenty-Two Army, the Twenty-Three Army, the Twenty-Fourth Army, the Thirty-Sixth Army, the Thirty-Nine Army, the Fifth Army, the Fifth Army, the New Eighth Army, the Third Army, the New First Army, the New Sixth Army, the Seventh Fourth Army, the Qing 3rd Army, the New Eighth Army, the New Eighth Army, the New Eighth Army, the New Twentieth Army (Reorganized by the Western Henan Militia, the Army Commander Chen Lie), the temporary organization of the Eighth Army, the 112th Army, the New 110th Division, and a large number of enemy-behind guerrillas. Anyway, the puppet army, the enemy-behind guerrillas and the puppet army must be reorganized.

After the meeting, Zhuang Jihua invited He Yingqin and all the generals attending the meeting at the headquarters. As soon as He Yingqin agreed, he saw Guan Linzheng with regret, while Song Xilian looked painful, and felt a little strange. When he arrived at the dining table, he understood why Guan Linzheng and Song Xilian had this expression.

The meal on the table is extremely simple, one stir-fried shredded pork, one plate of stir-fried eggs, and the remaining six dishes are all vegetarian dishes, which is enough, a side dish soup, and a large pot.

"Haha, Cultural Revolution, you are simple enough." He Yingqin was not polite and sat in the first place.

"Everyone is casual," Zhuang Jihua greeted him and sat next to He Yingqin. Guan Linzheng sat on the other side of He Yingqin: "There is no way. After this battle, Shandong was in trouble. You have also seen how harmful the damage in Jinan is. In the past few days after I came back, I received a report that the number of refugees in various places was as high as 1.4 million. What's more serious is that before the Japanese retreat, they plundered most of the food. The entire Restoration District was short of food, so they had to live a tight life and felt wronged. "

"Share the joys and sorrows, haha, come and toast to victory." He Yingqin smiled faintly and reached out to hold up the wine glass. This wine was a famous Shandong wine that turned over well wine, but this wine was only one jar, and it was placed in the chief, and the rest of the table was ordinary wine.

"Cheers" the generals stood up together and raised their wine glasses and shouted in unison.

"Yudong, after you take charge of the Jianghuai War Zone, you will reorganize the war zone troops," He Yingqin sat down and said to Guan Linzheng: "The booklet written by the Cultural Revolution is very good. The combat effectiveness of the Jiangbei War Zone troops is so strong, which has a lot to do with this."

"Students understand that after students arrive in Jianghuai, the first step is to rectify the troops." Guan Linzheng nodded and said. Guan Linzheng knew in his heart that the combat mission of the Jianghuai War Zone was not heavy, and he had enough time to rectify the troops. Secondly, there were several troops in the Jianghuai War Zone that were deeply suspected of GC, such as the Fourth Army, which was the predecessor of the 17th Route Army of Yang Hucheng; Zhao Shoushan, the commander of the main force of the army, had a close relationship with GCD, and the Military Control Commission had reported it long ago. In addition, the division commander Kong Congzhou was also suspected of GCD, so this army must be rectified.

In addition, the Miao Zhengliu division of the 57th Army must also be rectified. During the War of Resistance between the Miao Zhengliu division on the Sulu border, the troops rebelled and the subordinate 111th Division defected to the Eighth Route Army. Chiang Kai-shek was furious and revoked the 57th Army number. Miao Zhengliu led the remaining 112th Division to retreat into Suzhong. Guan Linzheng wanted to reorganize this unit several times, but in the end there was no chance. Now this unit is responsible for the defense of the north bank of the Yangtze River.
