In winter, it is rare for the sun to shine on your body and make it warm.
The cold wind has also turned into a breeze. This weather is really good in winter.
Military exchanges are not a big deal. In the past, friendly armies often competed with each other.
However, it was an old rival from the mountains who returned this time.
The place where the exchanges took place was at the headquarters, and there were many people watching the fun.
Eventually, there were so many people that even the largest house in the village could not accommodate them.
Mr. Li waved his hand and directly placed the sand table discussion on the grain drying field outside the village.
A sea of people surrounded him in a dark circle.
The staff worked for an hour and finally made a rough sand table on the ground.
After the South Taihang Mountains approach the southernmost tip, they immediately narrow in the east-west direction. The narrowest point is only 80 miles in a straight line from east to west.
Even if you walk on the mountain road, it is only more than a hundred miles. The independent group is in the southeast of Taihang Mountain. At this time, a stone was placed at the corresponding position.
Judging from the sand table, the mountainous area south of Taihang looks like the Chinese character "尧". The friendly army's headquarters is located close to the left of the southernmost point, that is, west of Taihang, and the territory belongs to Shanxi.
Not far to the west of South Taihang Mountain is Zhongtiao Mountain, which is located between the Qinling Mountains and Taihang Mountains in the southwest.
Those who could write took notes in small notebooks, and those who watched the excitement could not understand the meaning of the profound words spoken by the superiors, so they had to lower their voices and joke with each other. They were so bored that they could not sleep and were forced to be the audience by their brothers. , the guy sitting in the front row can’t even walk! I had to wait in boredom while looking at those country bumpkins who were similar to beggars. For a while, countless feelings of superiority arose spontaneously.
A certain soldier even forgot that there were enemy troops surrounding him and the people on the plain to the east who were chewing tree bark and eating white soil, struggling to survive from starvation.
A map is hung on the wall on the north side of the drying area, corresponding to the sand table.
Li Zhenqing was pointing at the map with high spirits and talking: "...Your strategic goal is to cross the Yellow River south in an attempt to connect with Central China. But now our army has assembled an army of 300,000 on the south bank of the Yellow River to guard these 200 kilometers. On the south bank of the Yellow River, judging from the current comparison of our military strength, the possibility of you trying to cross the Yellow River is basically non-existent."
Hu Yi glanced at the map and calculated silently in his mind: "Your 300,000-strong army has at most 200,000 combatants. To defend such a 200-kilometer-long defense line, a fortress would have to be set up about 500 meters away. Calculating like this Come on, there are no more than five hundred people in one place, and the troops have to change defenses, so there are no more than two or three hundred people in one point. If I concentrate my forces to cross the Yellow River, I think it will be difficult for you to hold it."
Hu Yi acts as the attacking Japanese side, the legendary sand table showdown! Unfortunately, his experience was too far behind.
Li Zhenqing smiled slightly: "You should understand that there is the Eighth Route Army in the mountains, and the position of our unit is very critical. We are guerrillas in the mountainous area more than a hundred miles away from the north bank of the Yellow River. We can intercept the retreat of your attacking troops at any time and act as a guerrilla. A fatal blow!"
Hu Yi looked at the situation on the sand table in front of him and thought hard.
Minister Zhang next to him shook his head. This situation had actually been analyzed hundreds of times by various staff members. Seeing Hu Yi defeated, he was not surprised by the result.
It was over for the time being. Seeing that Hu Yi was still thinking, Minister Zhang thought for a while and immediately asked a very sharp question: "General Li's arrangement is very good, but I have a question: the Fifth Army you placed in the east , can it withstand our massive attack?"
Li Zhenqing pointed at the map: "What you said is a slap in the face! Among us, who can really withstand the Japanese army's frontal attack?"
"If we concentrate all our efforts on encircling and suppressing the Fifth Army, do you think there will be any changes?"
Li Zhenqing was stunned for a moment, turned his head and smiled at the people sitting on the small bench, and then continued energetically: "The Fifth Army is stronger than us. As for whether it can withstand it, I dare not draw any conclusions, but , we sent people to your Eighth Route Anti-Japanese University to learn guerrilla tactics. We were deeply inspired by the study. The measures we are taking now are to rely on the mountains at our backs. We will retreat when you advance, and we will advance when you retreat. If you want to cross the river, , I will attack your supply line, or attack from the north and south. As the attacker, it will be difficult for you to cross the river, but as the defender, we have the natural dangers of the Yellow River to stand against. It is obvious that it is impossible for you to cross the river."
The meaning of Li Zhenqing's words is, I have learned how to fight guerrilla warfare from the Eighth Route Army, so why should I still fight with you? Do you think I am a fool?
For the commander, the sandbox is no different from the battlefield!
Minister Zhang suddenly said: "General Li has been to study at our Anti-Japanese University?"
Li Zhenqing glanced at Minister Zhang: "Since the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, we have been fighting against the Japanese. Several of my staff have been fortunate enough to study in your department. Your department does have a good teaching method. If there is an opportunity in the future, I can use your It would be best if the Anti-Japanese University opened here."
Communication is not a real thing. Although we are "hostile parties" at this time, it's okay to chat.
"That's no problem. If you really have this plan, I'll report it when I get back." Minister Zhang agreed.
Li Zhenqing smiled awkwardly: "Brother Zhang is happy, but we have to stop talking ugly. It's okay to start classes, but we are not allowed to carry out ideological education."
Minister Zhang smiled: "No problem, that's it, you decide the course, but our guerrilla tactics... you may not be able to learn it."
Li Zhenqing thought for a moment: "Haha, you are telling the truth. I heard that each of your soldiers is entitled to a monthly allowance of one and a half dollars. To put it bluntly, this amount of money... is probably not even enough to buy food to fill your stomach. Who is willing to fight and bleed with you? I wonder how Mr. Zhang can teach me?"
Minister Zhang said sternly: "Our Eighth Route Army has never delayed the soldiers' military pay, but we have all turned it into millet. It is a fact that our Eighth Route Army is poor. It is really helpless not to directly pay the money and turn it into grain. I don't know Li What does the teacher mean by this?"
Li Zhenqing sighed: "It's not interesting, I just said it would be great if these brothers under me could not be paid!"
"As long as you keep the people in mind and fight for the people, it really doesn't matter whether you have money or not."
"Haha, don't talk about your policies anymore. Your teaching is about attacking the mind. If you continue to listen, I will have to go back and recite the instructions!"
"You're too worried."
Li Zhenqing changed the subject, pointed at the map and said to Hu Yi: "If you don't speak, I will let the staff judge you as a loser! Hahaha, in fact, the guerrilla zone of the Fifth Army is to the east of the "left" end of the South Taihang Mountains. They are the same as us. We used the mountainous areas to deal with the Japanese army, but the South Taihang is only more than a hundred miles wide from east to west. After all, the area is too small, but a big weakness of our army is the lack of depth to maneuver our troops!"
When Hu Yi heard Li Zhenqing's sudden reminder, he immediately understood that this man was really capable and was not afraid of his opponents knowing his weaknesses: he asked tentatively: "If I attack the Fifth Army with all my strength or directly encircle it, your mobile force will be gone. I will If you try your best to cross the Yellow River, won't you be defeated?"
Li Zhenqing was already familiar with these responses: "Hey, can this mountain be sealed off? There are more than a dozen ways in and out of the mountain on the southbound route. I can exit from wherever I want!"
No matter which way you come out, I will concentrate heavy troops to attack you. Even if you have more people, they are scattered around the Taihang Mountains for hundreds of miles, which is useless. So, we just asked the war zone to borrow your defense area some time ago. Mountains, if the Japanese army really invades in large numbers, we can retreat northward into the mountains at any time and still have more room for movement. Not to mention, is the Yellow River so easy to cross? Do you understand, Staff Officer Hu? "
Hu Yi was stunned for a while, speechless.
The girl who was listening to the debate below was sitting on a small bench, looking around with her pigtails dangling.
The ordinary soldiers of these friendly forces seemed to be the same as the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army. Their uniforms and military caps were not much different, but their faces mostly had a numb look, and many of them even looked angry.
What the officers said above...these people who participated in the exchange seemed to understand it!
Most people have the mentality of country bumpkins who hope they can reach heaven and earth.
The two parties communicating occasionally turned their heads and stared at the person next to them.
The sun has already turned to the west, and the sun is shining on the top of the head. There is no warmth at all, and I can only feel the cold wind.
For the friendly officers and soldiers, it is not appropriate to sit in the cold wind outside the village and communicate at this time.
The Japanese security forces gathered around and could launch an attack at any time. If we had time to talk nonsense, we might as well dig two more piles of soil and dig two more deep trenches and tunnels.
