Liuzhen, Independent Division Headquarters
The news that Yingjiang declared war on the Japanese also attracted a burst of cheers, as if they had defeated the Japanese. This kind of thinking was unacceptable, so Chu Xiong immediately recited the tightening curse to them:
"I said you guys are so excited. If Yingjiang joins you, you won't fight the Japanese. The country's dignity and status are achieved by oneself. The idea of sitting, waiting, and relying is not good. There is never a free lunch in the world!
Of course, the more allies the better, but I still have to take the lead in fighting the Japanese. There are millions of Chinese soldiers on the battlefield who will not leave on their own. Yingjiang and the others will not be able to protect themselves for the time being.
We still follow our established policy, come from among the people, go to the people, mobilize the masses, arm the masses, and drown all invaders with the vast ocean of people's war. "
Chu Xiong's words made some of the staff officers who were most popularly called "Liu Su" in the headquarters feel a little embarrassed. These people were enthusiastic about fighting Japanese invaders, but they had been drinking foreign ink and eating foreign bread for several years, so they had no respect for foreigners. There is an inexplicable admiration;
Feeling that as long as Yingjiang joins the war, the Japanese will soon be wiped out. This kind of thinking of sitting, waiting and relying is unacceptable, so Chu Xiong suppressed it in time.
Political Commissar Wang saw that Chu Xiong's words were a bit harsh, so he quickly came out and sang the red face:
"Okay, Lao Chu, comrades are just having fun. I didn't say that you have to sit, wait, or rely on me. You guys are done having fun, so go ahead and do what you have to do."
Several staff officers who had been criticized did not want to leave or stay, they were all looking at Chu Xiong longingly;
Chu Xiong waved his hand, and the others fled as if they were stunned. They felt that Master Chu didn't seem very happy.
After Wang Junjie waited for everyone to leave, he asked Chu Xiong:
"Lao Chu, I feel like you're not very happy when Yingjiang joins the war. At least you have an extra ally. It's normal for everyone to have a good time. We will still fight the devils when we should."
"Old Wang, the benefits of Yingjiang's participation in the war will definitely outweigh the disadvantages for China. Our Eighth Route Army will not sit back and wait, but our skills are not necessarily certain. If the rope around his neck is loosened, he will be in trouble!
As long as he feels that he can wait for victory by sitting still, he will definitely passively fight against the Japanese and actively oppose the organization. He can do this kind of thing;
If he can't do it openly, he will do it covertly, such as conniving and secretly ordering some anti-Japanese troops behind enemy lines to defect to the Japanese and help the Japanese control the development of our Eighth Route Army. "
Wang Junjie's eyes almost bulged out after hearing this. Is there such a saucy operation?
But after thinking about it, he felt that what Lao Chu said was not an exaggeration at all. This man could really do what he did, and even went further. For example, he passively resisted the war in Central China, allowing the Japanese to free up their hands to carry out large-scale raids on the base area;
As long as he can eliminate dissidents, he can do anything. This person is a politician through and through. The national interests and the safety of the people are just chips to him.
"Old Chu, you are right to worry. When he passively resists on the frontal battlefield, the pressure on our battlefield behind enemy lines will increase. It seems that future resistance behind enemy lines will only be more difficult."
Chu Xiong continued:
“Actually, it’s much more than that, because what is done by those above will be effective below!
Because of the pressure from the Japs, those military leaders had to fight the Japs desperately in order to survive;
Once the enemy fights a tacit understanding with them, they will relax, just like clockwork. If it is loose for a long time, it will become useless. When the enemy fights seriously again, it will collapse at the first touch. "
The worries about Chuxiong are not unfounded. In the Battle of Henan, Hunan and Guangxi in another time and space, the Japanese were about to surrender, but they were beaten thousands of miles away. They were beaten all the way from the Central Plains to the Annan border. In just a few months, they lost hundreds of thousands of troops and lost ground. Hundreds of thousands of square kilometers;
In the end, Yingjiang completely gave up on China and signed the Yalta Conference with Black Bear, which was aimed at harming China's interests. From then on, Begonia became a rooster;
The Mobei grassland was completely independent, and the entire industrial system left by the Japanese in Manchuria was packed up and dismantled by the black bears. China lost too many benefits.
Chu Xiong can only keep these things in his heart. This is the helplessness of the time traveler. The cruel facts have told Chu Xiong that the dignity and interests of the country can only be fought on the battlefield and must be exchanged for blood!
"Old Wang, the Japanese have opened up the southern battlefield. Soon they will cut off China's last bloodline to the outside world, the Yunnan-Yunnan Highway. In a few months at most, we will not be able to transport the materials we need. In the next two to three years China's war of resistance will only become more difficult in the coming years;
We must be prepared in advance to carry out a large-scale production campaign of self-reliance and hard work in the base areas. From now on, not a grain of food or a single material should be wasted.
The people in the Central Plains who receive the food must also be organized to open up wasteland and grow grains. If fine grains cannot be grown, then coarse grains such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, pumpkins, corn, and sorghum must be planted first;
Now that the population has increased and it is the slack season, we should organize the construction of water conservancy projects to turn more slope land into irrigated land, cultivate intensively, and increase food production. There are always more ways than difficulties. With the diligence and frugality of our Chinese people, no matter how big the problem is, All difficulties will be overcome..."
Chuxiong has taken precautions and decided to launch a vigorous large-scale production movement in the base area in advance, so that the military and civilians can spend the most difficult time in the next two years.
"Okay, Chu Xiong, the baby commander, has an idea. The idea of this large-scale production movement is very good. Self-reliance and hard work, we CP should fight against the heaven and the earth and ask for food from the heaven and the earth!
I suggest that this large-scale production movement can be extended to all base areas of the Eighth Route Army. The army and cadres fight in wartime, produce in peacetime, come from the masses, go to the masses, and serve the people wholeheartedly. Chu Xiong's political consciousness has risen to a higher level. What do you think, old guys? "
Several other members of the Standing Committee nodded in agreement with Sheng Sheng's suggestion, which made him very interested and immediately suggested:
"Old fellows, I don't think we can stay in the caves anymore. We should all go out to farm and join the masses to be self-reliant and work hard. It starts with us!"
In the southern battlefield, with the destruction of the Ying Jiang Long Pingyang Fleet, the last stumbling block that restricted the implementation of the Japs' southward strategy was removed. The Japs' march south could simply be described as rapid, and the Allied forces were routed thousands of miles away;
In less than half a month, almost all the important islands in Longpingyang fell into the hands of the Japanese. They got the oil, steel, and food they dreamed of. Strategic resources were no longer the enemy's shortcomings.
"Onboard!"
"Long Live His Majesty the Emperor!"
“Long live the jihad!”
"Long live Greater East Asia's common prosperity"
…
The enthusiasm of the people in the Japanese country has completely heated up. The long queues at the recruitment points are as far as the eye can see. The number of Japanese troops is expanding rapidly. More and more troops are being sent to the southern battlefield. The Emerald Country, the barrier of John Bull's South Asian subcontinent, is beginning to be in danger;
John Bull's focus was on Europa, but Asan Kingdom couldn't be lost, so the fat guy called his little cousin Yingjiang's house for help.
"Shit!"
After Franklin hung up the phone, he couldn't help but cursed.
After scolding, I still have to do the job of wiping my eldest cousin’s butt. I can only say to George:
"George, the gentlemen can't bear it any longer. The strategy of coordinating with China to form an expeditionary force to ensure the security of the flanks of the Asan Kingdom must be put on the agenda immediately!"
George nodded and asked:
"Sir, what do you want?"
