Most of what I write is an introduction, but I think it is necessary to write.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

The Hebei-Shandong-Henan area is the junction of the three provinces, located east of Pinghan Road, west of Jinpu Road, south of Weihe River, and north of Longhai Road.

It is specifically divided into: Northwest Shandong, with Liaocheng as the center, Yanggu, Shouzhang, Tangyi, Guanxian and other nine counties.

Yutai and other places.

The Huxi area is located in the plain area in the northwest of the intersection of the Jinpu Railway and the Longhai Railway. It is the contact hub between Central China and North China.

The three areas of Sizhi South, North Henan and Southwest Shandong are collectively referred to as the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Border Region.Zhinan District is located at the southern end of Hebei, in a narrow area between Henan and Shandong, including 3 counties south of Daming, including Nanle, Qingfeng, PY, Dongyang, and Changyuan.

On Mount Yama.

Zhou Weihan came back this time to clarify the future combat deployment in the Hebei-Shandong-Henan border region as soon as possible. Therefore, after confirming the issue of the border region ticket in the Tainan base area, he immediately held a meeting of the leadership of the Tainan military region.

Since Zhou Weiguo was in Pingshun, only Zhou Weihan, Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo, Li Yunshan and a group of combat staff officers from the staff office participated in the meeting.

In addition to training the recruits, Xing Zhiguo led a group of combat staff to integrate intelligence from the Eighth Route Army headquarters, the local government of the Hebei-Shandong-Henan region, and the enemy engineering department.

conference room.

Since Zhou Weihan and others are not familiar with the Hebei-Shandong-Henan area, and the various forces in the local area are mixed, even the internal relations of our personnel are not unified. relationship.

I saw Xing Zhiguo standing in front of the map and introducing: "In 1938, the Japanese army was still advancing along the railway line, but occupied the county towns along the railway line. The hinterland of the Hebei-Shandong-Henan area was not yet occupied by the Japanese army at that time, and the Nationalist government collapsed. !"

"Taking advantage of this opportunity, comrades from all over the country successively established multiple anti-Japanese armed forces. Starting in November of the same year, the anti-Japanese armed forces in various places were merged and reorganized!"

"The anti-enemy self-defense regiment in the Taixi area, the Wenshang anti-enemy self-defense force, and the Dafengshan Independent Battalion were combined into four regiments under the sixth detachment of the Eighth Route Army's Mountain Winter Column according to the instructions of the superior. Together with other guerrillas, there are more than 4 armed forces. .”

"The Second Corps of the Sulu People's Anti-Japanese Volunteer Corps in the Huxi area was reorganized into the Shandong Column Advance Detachment."

"In Zhinan and Southwest Shandong, with the two companies of the 344th Regiment of the 688th Brigade as the backbone, together with the 2th Detachment of Fan Zhuxian's Department and some guerrilla forces that were transferred to the Heze area, the 344th Brigade Special Service Regiment was formed. The Self-Defense Forces and several guerrillas were jointly organized into the Fifth Detachment of Hebei, Shandong and Henan. The armed forces in Zhinan and Southwest Shandong have grown to more than 4000 people."

"At that time, the above-mentioned areas did not have the main force of the Eighth Route Army. Our Eighth Route Army was relatively weak, but the national army was very powerful in the Hebei, Shandong and Henan regions, with a total of more than [-] armed forces. Implement various restrictions and oppression on our Eighth Route Army in an attempt to control the Hebei, Shandong and Henan regions and the entire Shandong, and cut off the connection between North China and Central China!"

"For this reason, at the end of 1938, the 115th Division, 343rd Brigade, and 685th Regiment, which had originally been active in the west and southeast of Shanxi Province, arrived in the Huxi area and merged with the local armed forces to form the Suluyu Detachment. The new Suluyu detachment has four regiments with more than 1939 people, the first and second regiments went south to Jiangsu and Anhui, and the third and fourth regiments have remained in the west of the lake to this day!"

"In February 1939, the 2th Brigade of the 115th Division entered Zhinan under the leadership of Brigadier Yang. The previously established secret service regiment and independent regiment formed the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Detachment, which was responsible for unified command operations in Zhinan and Southwest Shandong! By the end of 344, The detachment was expanded from 39 to 4000, and the Henan North Brigade, the Independent Brigade, and several local armed forces in counties and districts were formed, with a total of 7000 people!"

"In March 1939, Chen, the commander of the 3th Division, and Luo, the political commissar, led the division, the 115rd Brigade, and the 343th Regiment to Luxi. In order to open up the west of the canal, Yuncheng, Zhencheng, Shouzhang, Puxian, Fanxian, Guan City and other places, Yang Yong led the 686 regiment and each department directly under the division headquarters to the counties in Yunxi. In July, an independent brigade of the 686th division was formed. Yang Yong served as the brigade commander and political commissar, under the jurisdiction of the first and second regiments! Yunxi is connected into one piece, officially forming the Luxi base!"

"So far, after the arrival of the main force of the 115th Division, three large anti-Japanese base areas have been formed in the Hebei-Shandong-Henan area, namely the Hebei-Shandong-Henan base area (Zhinan, Southwest Shandong), and the Luxi base area (Northwest Shandong, Yunxi, Taixi) Plus Huxi!".

"In the spring of 40, the headquarters ordered Yang Dezhi, the commander of the second column of the Eighth Route Army, and Huang Kecheng, the political commissar, to lead the 344th brigade of the department (owed to the 688th regiment, which was incorporated into the new first brigade and then reorganized into the 4th division), The Independent Guerrilla Detachment, the First Brigade Headquarters of the Hebei People's Army and the First Regiment entered the Zhinan area of ​​Hebei, Shandong and Henan from the south of the Taihang Mountains in April, and joined the Hebei, Shandong and Henan detachments. The Fifth Brigade and the Qingfeng Independent Regiment jointly formed the 344th Regiment of the 688th Brigade."

"The first, second, third, and fourth brigades are jointly organized into the new second brigade, brigade commander Yang Dezhi (concurrently). The independent brigade, Henan northern brigade and independent guerrilla detachment are jointly organized into the new third brigade, brigade commander Han Xianchu."

"The First Brigade of the Hebei People's Army still maintains the original organizational system. At the same time, at the end of April, the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Military Region, the Second Column and the Military Region were established, with three military divisions under its jurisdiction."

"At the same time, the Luxi Military Region was also established at the end of April. Yang Yong was the commander and Xiao Hua was the political commissar. It had two detachments, the Canal and the Yellow River, and four military divisions. The armed forces were combined into the third brigade taught by the 4th division, and the Yellow River detachment was composed of the first and second regiments of the original independent brigade of the 4th division, which was later reorganized into the fourth brigade taught by the 115th division!"

"Before the big raid not long ago, the headquarters ordered the Suluyu Detachment in the Huxi base, the 344th Brigade of the Second Column of the Eighth Route Army of the Hebei-Shandongyu Military Region, and the newly-organized Second Brigade to go south to Central China one after another!"

"The Japanese army took this opportunity to launch a big raid. Our Eighth Route Army suffered heavy losses in the Shandong and Hebei-Shandong border bases. With the main force of the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Military Region, the new third brigade and the first civilian army brigade were transferred to the Luxi Military Region. The [-]th Brigade of Teaching is transferred to the base in the west of the lake!"

"This is the actual situation of our Eighth Route Army troops in the Hebei-Shandong-Henan area!" Xing Zhiguo finally said.

"Old Xing, it seems that there are not many activities of our Eighth Route Army in the Northern Henan area in the Hebei-Shandong-Henan area?" Zhou Weihan said.

"The northern part of Henan, headed by Anyang and Huaxian, is along the Ping-Han Railway, an important area for Japanese defense!"

"The [-]th Division of the Japanese Army and the main force of the [-]th Cavalry Brigade are stationed along the Longhai Railway in Kaifeng and Shangqiu!"

"And after the sweeping was over, the Japanese army built 34 large and small strongholds in the border areas of Zhinan, Southwest Shandong, and West Shandong, intending to separate our base areas!"

"There are many anti-Japanese armed forces headed by Gao Shuxun of the New Eighth Army in PY, Puxian and other places in the hinterland of the Hebei-Shandong-Henan area. The Japanese army deliberately let them fight with our Eighth Route Army!"

Zhou Weihan nodded after hearing this and said: "From this point of view, the situation in the Hebei-Shandong-Henan area is still very complicated. Not only do we have to deal with little devils, we must also beware of the anti-Japanese armed forces of the national army!"

"That's right, we can fight unscrupulously in the face of the little devil, but in the face of the national army, we can only passively endure the friction!" Li Yunshan said on the side.

Zhou Weihan suddenly stood up and stood in front of the map: "Send a report to a regiment, temporarily avoid the Japanese army, and station in Neihuang and Nanle, and at the same time, don't conflict with the New Eighth Army. Everything will be done after the arrival of the main force next month. Intend!"

　The Hebei-Shandong-Henan area is a noun for a region, and the Hebei-Shandong-Henan base area, the Luxi base area, and the west of Huxi are all part of it.

　　What Zhou Weihan was going to was the Hebei-Shandong-Henan base area.When I have time, I will draw a map so that everyone can see it more clearly
