Chapter 667: The commander of the war zone wants to bring his subordinates to do business
There is one most important reason why Song Wenwan made such arrangements.
Just a few days ago, the First Army of the Tenth War Zone.
Following orders from the Temporary Capital's Secretariat, they concentrated the forces of five divisions in an attempt to launch a surprise attack on the border government in Yan'an.
At that time, the Eighth Route Army brigade in Nanniwan secretly entered the Pagoda Mountain position as the last line of defense.
The troops ambushing in Qingliang Mountain were the mobile forces that the commander urgently transferred from the Hengshan base.
One of the reasons for transferring them here is that this unit has strong combat effectiveness.
As for the other reason, it was that the leader had in mind that he wanted to test the capabilities of this mobile force.
They did not disappoint their leader's expectations and simply fired a flare into the sky.
The main division of the National Army that wanted to attack Yan'an from the small canyon in Qingliang Mountain was completely dumbfounded.
It only took ten minutes for him to go from arrogance to collapse and then to surrender.
The Nationalist army had no choice but to surrender, as dense gun muzzles appeared on the mountains on both sides of the canyon.
If people with trypophobia saw this, they would probably go crazy with their scalp tingling.
So this national army division arrived quickly and surrendered quickly too.
But this incident made Song Wenwan feel very uncomfortable.
Under the pretext of protecting the oil fields, he allowed the reorganized 303rd Division to enter the Yanchang Oilfield.
This was to add an insurance policy for Red Northern Shaanxi, but in the eyes of outsiders, everyone was praising Song Wenwan's insidiousness and cunningness.
The reason why Suo Wuxing explained it this way was also to deceive the public.
If he told the truth, the news that the Gannan tribes had betrayed the Party and the country would have reached the table in the attendant room of the temporary capital that night.
Amidst the voices praising Suo Wuxing, Chu Yunfei didn't believe a single word.
He had been with the guerrilla division for a long time, and after secretly observing them.
Chu Yunfei had long had various doubts about the relationship between the Gannan Guerrilla Division and the Eighth Route Army.
But he was not prepared to speak out his guess.
Just look at the commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone. He has done many harm to the Eighth Route Army in the past.
But now he has been accompanying the guerrilla division all the time, and seems to have forgotten that there is also an Eighth Route Army in Shanxi.
Yoshio Shinozuka's new division had just arrived, now that the Shota Road was open and the autumn harvest was over.
He no longer had to rush to arrange the troops to carry out sweeps across Shanxi.
The Shanxi-Suiyuan Army is now very stable, and the main force of the Central Army has withdrawn from Shanxi.
Only three Sichuan Army divisions and the 207th Division were left, which were considered troops from other provinces.
As for the guerrilla division and the Eighth Route Army troops, he had long ceased to regard them as outsiders.
(If I were to confront them, I would probably become the outsider.)
The old commander gritted his teeth and simply integrated the remaining Shanxi-Suiyuan Army into eight reorganized divisions.
All the surplus personnel were incorporated into the new security team and given intensive training.
Let those retired military commanders take them to serve as bodyguards for the caravan.
Now they don’t have to go out to fight, and they can still do their old business, which is much better than living on the edge of a knife.
As the number of troop numbers of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army decreased, the total number of their soldiers naturally decreased as well.
However, their combat effectiveness has indeed increased a lot.
It was also a pleasant surprise for the commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone.
Now let’s talk about the guerrilla division and those veterans of the guerrilla division who are left empty-handed.
When the order was given, they still couldn't understand it.
How come I have to retire when the battle against the Japanese hasn't even finished yet?
When they crossed the Yellow River, they saw the soldiers who came to pick them up and escort them home.
These are all troops that have been equipped. The weapons and equipment in their hands are really tempting.
Half a month later, they entered the bases of various military branches in Longnan in batches.
Looking at the troops left behind in Gannan, holding the newly equipped Type 41 weapons in their hands.
Under the cover of aircraft and heavy artillery, the soldiers got on cars and followed the armored torrent forward...
Commander Song Wenwan was right. This kind of scene was indeed very healing for men.
Even though the Japanese appear to be behaving themselves on the surface, they are still making small moves in the economy.
If they were not afraid of being discovered by northern Shaanxi and Gannan, they would have wanted to stop the guerrilla division's operation of exchanging fine grains for coarse grains.
The wars became less and less frequent at the end of the year, and fighting in various war zones in the country stopped strangely.
This strange truce did not last long, only lasting until December, when new changes occurred.
The Japanese devils on the Japanese island faced the whole world and started fighting face to face once again.
The Pacific War, which the Japanese had been planning for a long time, finally broke out at a node on the timeline!
In the early morning of December 6, 1941, an uninvited guest came to the army base on Pearl Island.
He is a democratic fighter in New York State and a rising star in politics.
This is the P51 Mustang fighter plane carrying six Army Aviation aircraft.
Mr. Williams, a congressman from New York, came to Pearl Island for a test drive.
The trip was secretive and was accompanied by a reporter from the New York Times and two observers from the Department of Defense Procurement Agency.
They all expressed high praise for Mr. Williams' work attitude from a practical perspective.
However, no matter how high our thoughts are, we should all take a break.
Their flight this time has lasted for more than ten hours.
If it weren’t for the two accompanying observers, they were die-hard fans of Mr. Williams.
No matter what, they would not listen to Williams and choose such a faraway place as the experimental site.
The army base was located in a small canyon, and after everyone filled up their new fighter jets with fuel, they found a place to sleep.
Regarding flight and confrontation tests, it is definitely not possible today.
Because when they woke up, it was still dark.
These people have already rested for a whole day.
Because the next day, the 7th, was Sunday, which was also a day off for the army base.
So their tests will be conducted on the 8th, and then people from the navy will come to observe the performance of the new aircraft.
The only thing that made Williams unhappy was that the two aircraft carriers that were originally docked in Pearl Harbor were not there.
This made him feel a little unsatisfied in testing the P51 Mustang fighter.
What everyone didn’t know was that at four o’clock in the morning, the Japanese attacking force arrived.
They also didn't know what role they played in this sneak attack.
Ever since the United States, across the ocean, cut off Japan’s energy supply in July.
This forced the development of Japan's manufacturing and military to be curbed.
Therefore, the Japanese headquarters secretly formulated an attack plan.
They hoped that by attacking the warships at Pearl Harbor, they would weaken America's naval power in the Pacific.
This created favorable conditions for them to "advance southward" to invade Southeast Asia and capture many countries in Oceania.
From this we can see that these Japanese people have too big an appetite.
Just because they have taken a slight advantage of China, they think they are a very capable country.
In their eyes, Asia is already in their pocket.
Oceania is nothing more than a springboard for them to conquer the world.
Of course, we have seen the performance of his ally Germany in Europe.
Japan's goal of conquering the world alone has now become dividing the world with the German army, which seems cowardly.
