Ouyang looked at the puzzled people, and immediately smiled: "Everyone, I know that you have a lot of doubts in your hearts, and you even have a lot of anger, right?"
doubt wrath Hearing this, the dozens of people present really wanted to stand up and say "It's not" in unison, but when they saw Ouyang say this, no one was surprised to get up and speak.
"Huh" Ouyang smiled faintly, and knocked on the table a few times repeatedly, making a clattering sound, and the sound of tapping on the table seemed to be synchronized with the heartbeat at this moment, which immediately made the atmosphere of the entire war room suddenly become solemn.
"I know everyone has emotions, but such a big battle today is not the decision of my 512 Brigade, let alone my Ouyang's decision, but the decision of my superiors."
Ouyang said in a deep voice.
It is the decision of the higher authorities to detain people and surrender guns Jiang Daya couldn't help but say: "Brigade commander, what is the division headquarters going to do, even if it is going to fight a big battle, it won't be like this."
Immediately, Li Yunlong, Yang Zhihua and others present also nodded in agreement.
Isn't it just a war, as for that?
Ouyang said with a straight face: "First of all, I want to correct a little, this decision was not issued by me, nor by the division commander, oh, looking at your expressions, do you want to say that it was issued by the headquarters."
I tell you, how wrong.
The order of this meeting was directly issued by the Yan'an Command" As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar Li Da was stunned: "This is true and fake" Yang Zhihua was dumbfounded and said: "The command directly ordered me, oh my God, this is really going to be a big battle" Dai Tianli, the commander of the guard company, "My good man, this is going to pierce the sky."
Li Yunlong, Zhou Weiguo and others, one counts as one, all of them ejected from their seats at this moment, and their expressions were full of consternation Ouyang waved his hand and motioned for everyone to sit down.
Everyone sat back one by one, but the shock on their faces could not be concealed An order directly issued by the Yan'an Command It's really going to be a big battle At that moment, Ouyang told everyone about the 6th Independent Brigade of the Jin Sui Army, together with the beginning and end of the division meeting.
"Now you should understand why the White Tiger Base is so martial law today."
Ouyang said in a deep voice: "This will be the largest battle scale, the widest combat area, the largest number of participating troops and the largest number of participants since the Anti-Japanese War of our Eighth Route Army, can there be the slightest carelessness?"
"Don't say it's detaining, get off your guns, even if it's a little harsher, I can't overdo it" As soon as the words fell, everyone present immediately waved their hands again and again, saying words such as "should" and "so".
The previous anger disappeared at this moment.
This battle was not a small fight before, it was not a guerrilla war, it was not a sparrow war, and it was not a battle of dozens, hundreds, or thousands of people.
It was the biggest battle since the formation of the Eighth Route Army The 115th, 120th, and 129th Divisions under the jurisdiction of the Eighth Route Army, as well as the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Base Area, the Beiyue Base Area, the Central Hebei Base Area, the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Base Area, and the Northern Henan Base Area, all of which will participate in this battle without exception The number of participating troops will be as many as 100,000 or more; participated in more than 30 regimental combat units; The scope of the combat area spanned the four provinces of Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong, and Henan, covering at least dozens of counties and hundreds of townships and towns.
From the 512 Brigade Headquarters, to the 129th Division Headquarters, to the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, and finally to the Yan'an Headquarters, under the advance at all levels, how can anyone dare to slack off Where does anyone dare to blow up their hair This battle, which will go down in history, is the first earth-shattering battle since the Eighth Route Army's Anti-Japanese War If this battle is greatly won, the morale of the Eighth Route Army will be greatly boosted, North China will be greatly revitalized, and the whole country will be greatly revitalized And in this big battle, its first shot and its fuse, was the attack of the 512 Brigade of the Eighth Route Army and the Jinsui Army on the Morita Brigade of the Japanese Army in Baiqu City Political Commissar Zhao Gang said in a deep voice: "From the Yan'an Headquarters, Headquarters, and Division Headquarters, to the tens of millions of people in Taihang Mountain, the trust in my 512 Brigade and the trust of everyone here are entrusted to us in such an important battle.
Therefore, in this battle, we should sacrifice our lives to fight, do whatever it takes, and work together to inflict heavy losses on the entire Japanese North China Front."
Hearing Zhao Gang's words, everyone present patted their chests and reassured Kong Jieyan, the deputy head of the regiment, said: "Political commissar, you put a hundred hearts, my brothers in the 885th regiment have long been ready to play with the little devils."
Jiang Daya also echoed: "My 886 regiment is not a vegetarian, the brothers have long been on fire in their hearts, and this time they will definitely beat it."
Li Yunlong, Yang Zhihua, Ding Wei, Li Da Ability, Long Dagu and others also spoke one after another.
"Be quiet" Ouyang pressed his hand, stopped the noise of everyone, and said in a deep voice: "I agree with everyone's anti-Japanese passion and confidence, but we must also understand how powerful the enemy we are facing this time is. ” After a pause, he said: "It is no exaggeration to say that the Japanese army that our Eighth Route Army is facing this time is half of the Japanese army in North China, and its total strength is not less than 100,000 people."
Suddenly, the expressions of everyone present suddenly became solemn.
The North China Front of the Japanese Army was an army during the Japanese War of Aggression against China, and its predecessor was called the North China Dispatch Army.
After 1938, the number of people stabilized at about 200,000.
The front's operational area includes Hebei, Shanxi, Shandong, Henan, and parts of Suiyuan, Chahar, Jiangsu, Anhui, and Hubei provinces, and controls 800,000 square kilometers of land in North China.
It controls a population of about 100 million and the Chinese army, mainly the Eighth Route Army.
Chief of Staff Wang Yaqiao said in a deep voice: "In this battle, except for the First Army of the Japanese Army stationed in Shanxi, the Japanese army is still strong in the vast area east of the Taihang Mountain.
Hebei has the 12th Army of the little devils; In Shandong, Henan and other places, there was also the 43rd Army of the Japanese army. ” Wang Yaqiao said with a solemn expression: "The number of Japanese troops that our Eighth Route Army is facing this time will definitely not be less than 100,000, or even more."
Two hours later.
Ouyang concluded: "This battle is inevitable, we can only fight to the death, report the grace of the country, and report the dawn of hundreds of millions.
Therefore, with the first shot of this time, we must hit the ground vigorously and annihilate all the Morita brigades of the Japanese army in one go."
Ouyang said in a deep voice: "There are still 5 days before the battle starts, that is, at 6 o'clock in the morning on the 15th of this month, a full-scale attack on Baiqu City will be launched."
This battle was the first large-scale counterattack of North China's initiative, which did not exist in history In fact, in the autumn of 1939, after the end of the First Battle of Changsha, there was an optimistic mentality within the Chongqing Command, believing that China might have reached the perfect century to turn from defense to offensive, planning to launch an all-out general offensive to recapture important cities and strongholds, and have gained an advantage on the battlefield.
Shortly thereafter, on October 10, 1939, the Supreme Military Council of the Nationalist Government presented a plan for the Nationalist Army's counteroffensive to Chairman Chiang, which was approved by him.
Immediately, Chairman Chiang issued an operational order to take the initiative to attack all theaters of China.
Later generations called it the Winter Offensive Subsequently, in November 1939, China's third, fifth, and ninth theaters took the initiative to launch an offensive against the Japanese army, and the number of troops serving as the attack was as high as 1.2 million.
Later, in December, the Eighth Theater of Suiyuan, the Fourth Theater of Southern Guizhou, and the Second Theater of Shanxi were all ignited by the flames of war.
Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Hubei, Anhui, Shanxi, Henan, Jiangsu and other 17 provinces, all of which are unfolding one war after another, the land of the motherland is full of flames, soaring into the sky In just two months, the winter offensive caused the Japanese army to suffer from attacks, with tens of thousands of casualties, this battle, in the eyes of later generations, is little known, but in the real history, it occupies a pivotal position.
And this counterattack in North China was a full year ahead of the winter offensive in history It is no exaggeration to say that this was the first shot fired by the Chinese nation in its vigorous counterattack Although this battle was first proposed by the Sixth Independent Brigade of the Jin Sui Army, it was the Eighth Route Army that could really make this battle possible For this reason, from the Yan'an Command Headquarters to the company-platoon-level combat units at all levels, all of them were assembled and on standby, as if they had become the absolute main force in the counterattack in North China The outcome of this battle, whether it succeeds or fails, will have far-reaching consequences Shocked the nation There are still 5 days left until this battle The second update is sent,The author continues to open the third change t1706231537:
