Yanzhou’s reply to the ultimatum of the Sichuan Zhongzuo was also very powerful, using a large number of facts and evidence to clarify the truth to the people across the country;
The Eighth Route Army regained Taiyuan at the front, and the 338th Brigade robbed the Eighth Route Army's supplies from the rear, killing hundreds of soldiers and civilians, and taking away more than 1,300 tons of supplies. This was the supplies squeezed out from the teeth of the people who were frugal and frugal, to support the frontline in fighting the Japanese. Yes, the Central Army is sabotaging the war of resistance.
Yanzhou and the Eighth Route Army asked the government to arrest Li Chendong and Li Yuanzheng. If Shuzhong, regardless of the national danger, insists on fighting a civil war when the Eighth Route Army launches a partial counterattack against the Japanese, the Eighth Route Army will resolutely fight back, and the historical responsibility for fighting the civil war will be borne by Zhongcai.
At the same time, in the mainstream media of Goshawk Country, war reporter Aaliya published an article "Who is the Destroyer of Peace", using a large number of facts and evidence to restore the truth of the incident to the Eagles. The response to Eagle Nation was unprecedented.
Li Chendong became an expert in causing friction. Some people even suspected that he had colluded with the Japanese. The reputation of the CEO was also greatly affected.
Franklin clearly warned Zhongcai that if he dared to attack the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army, Yingjiang would no longer recognize him as the leader of the Chinese government.
This was far beyond Zhongcai's expectations. Because of the 338 Incident, his reputation was completely ruined at home and abroad.
After Yanzhou issued the statement, he ignored them and called on all the Eighth Route Army in Hedong to launch a counterattack and regain Hedong.
Yanzhou no longer kept a low profile, but showed off their power strongly, such as the New 1st Brigade, the Teaching Brigade, the 1st Column, and the 2nd Column, with various names, and troops emerged in endlessly, so many that even Yanzhou himself was shocked
(Success: I knew there was something hidden earlier)
"Niang Xi is a match, who gave them the right to expand the army to 500,000 (the Zhongtiao Mountain Army is still the Central Army in name only)"?
"There are 500,000 Eighth Route Army troops in Hedong. What about Jizhou, Qilu, and Huaibei? The New Fourth Army, and the Independent Army of the Expeditionary Force!
Unknowingly, there are already 800,000 troops in Yanzhou. This is a serious problem. These ghost guys are still supporting them. They are really blind. They will regret it! "
General He asked very inappropriately:
"Zhongcai, the time has come for the original plan to attack the New Fourth Army and the Eighth Route Army. Do you still want to move forward?"
Zhong Cai secretly said:
"Niang Xipi, you are so blind!"
Suddenly he realized that this old boy had selfish motives, and he wished that Yingjiang would be replaced by someone else to support him, so that he would have a chance to rise to power. This was true during the Chang'an Incident, and it is true now as well.
"Jingzhi, it was Li Chendong who misled me about this matter. The Eighth Route Army has great interests now, and I still have to take the overall situation into consideration!
The attack should be pushed back to give Yanzhou a chance to make amends. The Political Department will send people to negotiate. Even if Li Chendong is confused for a while, what does it have to do with the tens of thousands of soldiers of the 338th Brigade?
Qijia Town is the Central Military Defense Area. If the Eighth Route Army occupies it, it will be irrefutable evidence of territory grabbing! "
General He heard that this was a sign of giving in, and continued to ask for instructions:
"Hejia Town happens to be stuck between the two military divisions of the Eighth Route Army's Hedongnan Military District. Chuxiong probably won't let it out. It's just an inconspicuous town. We need to talk to them-"
Mr. Zhong knocked the ground heavily with his civilized stick and said:
"No matter how small it is, it is still the territory of the Central Army. This trend cannot last long. I think this way, the 93rd Army will send a regiment to take over. I have no control over them snatching it from the Japanese. The Kuomintang Army cannot snatch an inch of it. This is the bottom line!"
General He saw that Zhongcai was trying to cover his ears. He wanted to save the face of the government. The situation was stronger than the people, and this was the only way he could do it now.
He weighed these conditions and figured that Yanzhou should be able to accept it and that the task could be completed, so he agreed and went to wipe Zhong Cai's ass.
After more than a month of offensive operations, with the full support of hundreds of thousands of former people in the base area, various units of the Eighth Route Army carried out offensives one after another, and did not stop the offensive because of supply problems;
Finally, the last Japs stronghold in Hedong was removed, and all the remnants of the First Army retreated to the Chahar Grassland. Together with the original Chahar Japs, they formed the Chahar Dispatch Army, and the plan to capture Suiyuan became a reality. Empty words.
Just when people across the country were worried about the recurrence of civil war, Yanzhou released an explosive news that instantly ignited the land of China - Hedong was restored!
Countless people cried with joy. For more than five years, the Chinese nation has survived the most difficult years, made huge national sacrifices, and finally ushered in the dawn of victory.
This was a place to recover a province. Even within the entire Allied camp, it was a resounding victory. It greatly improved the morale of the entire Justice League.
Leaders of Eagle Sauce, Black Bear, John Bull, and Free Gallic Chicken all sent congratulatory messages, praising this as a great victory. The Eighth Route Army and Chuxiong became the brightest stars among the Allied forces;
Yanzhou has also officially become a strategic partner of all the allies, representing China together with Shuzhong. The four allied giants have also been changed to four countries and five parties, achieving the same political status as Shuzhong in the world.
In an environment where people across the country expect the red and blue sides to continue to consolidate the united front and strive to regain the country as soon as possible, with the mediation of Yingjiang and other allies, the conflict in Qijia Town was determined to be a misunderstanding. The two sides settled their differences and continued to cooperate in the war. Devil.
The Eighth Route Army returned all weapons and equipment in its custody to the soldiers of the 338th Brigade. The 338th Brigade withdrew from Qijia Town for rest and recuperation, and the defense area in Qijia Town was handed over to the 93rd Group of the Central Army;
Within the territory of Hedong, the Eighth Route Army, the Central Army, and the Shanxi-Sui Army defended their respective defense areas and did not invade each other. Otherwise, it would be regarded as destroying the united front.
The Eighth Route Army promised to withdraw 300,000 main troops from Hedong within three months to advance into enemy-occupied areas to fight the Japanese and maintain the tripartite balance in the Hedong area.
The original Japanese-occupied areas in southern Shanxi and western Shanxi were handed over to the 93rd Group Army of the Central Army. The Eighth Route Army abided by the agreement agreed by both parties not to enter southern Shanxi and western Shanxi.
The 93rd Group Army's defense area in Zhongtiao Mountain was all handed over to the 78th Group Army. Due to the recovery of Hedong, Zhongtiao Mountain became the rear area and there was no need for two group armies to be garrisoned.
Immediately afterwards, the main forces of the 129th Division and the 81st Division of the Eighth Route Army began to advance into southern Hebei, western Hebei, eastern Hebei, Qilu, and the Central Plains, and began to compete with the Japanese for the Central Plains.
The main force of the 78 Group sent troops to Tongbai Mountain and began to advance towards the Dabie Mountains, threatening Jiangcheng, the important Japanese town in central China.
The Eighth Route Army did not march outside the pass as Black Bear expected, but began to attack the Central Plains. Only the 120th Division continued to base itself in northwest Shanxi, guarding Yanzhou and preventing the Japanese from moving south from the grassland.
The main force of the Hedongnan Military Region stayed in Hedong and was renamed Hedong Military Region. Chu Xiong was appointed as the commander, deputy commanders Zhao Sihu (not disclosed) and Wang Junjie were appointed as political commissars, Gao Wancheng was appointed as the director of the Political Department, Zhong Guoliang was appointed as the chief of staff, and Yang Wei was appointed as the director of the joint logistics department.
It has jurisdiction over the Henan Military Division (Commander: Chen Hao), Henan Military Division (Commander: Luo Weimin), Zhongtiaoshan Military Division (Commander: Chu Dapeng), and Hebei Northeast Military Division (Commander: Li Qing)
The clear commanders of the 78th Group Army and the 93rd Group Army are still Zhao Sihu and Luo Weimin, and their positions within the organization are already high.
After completing the reorganization of the Hedong Military Region, Chu Xiong brought the expeditionary force system back to the light again. Most of the bombers and fighter jets he brought there stayed at Taiyuan Airport, and were taken over by the Eighth Route Army headquarters.
The Eighth Route Army headquarters moved to Taiyuan, and unified command of the Hedong Military Region, 129th Division, 115th Division, Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, 120th Division and 81st Division, with a total strength of approximately 950,000 troops.
