Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Anyang, the base of the First Independent Mixed Brigade of the Japanese Army.

Suzuki Sadaji, head of the Japanese brigade, heard the adjutant's report that Fushimi Miya Akiyoshi was found in Neihuang, his face suddenly sank.

"Is this news true?"

"Brigade Commander, Senda Hanbei did report this in the telegram. The military uniforms and documents under Fushimi Palace are on their way to Anyang!"

"Baga, how could Fushimi Palace appear in Neihuang territory? This is really bad news!" After being reconfirmed, Suzuki Sadaji's expression was not happy.

Unlike Chida Hanbei, in the position of Suzuki Sadaji, rescuing a member of the royal family is not enough to get him promoted, and it will cause him trouble if not done well.

At the same time, the Fushimi Palace appeared in Neihuang, which just shows that the Eighth Route Army was operating in the defense zone of the Independent First Mixed Brigade.

Suzuki Sadaji had known about the activities of the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the defense zone before, but the news was suppressed.

"Brigade Commander, should you notify Shangqiu's Fourth Cavalry Brigade immediately!" the adjutant asked tentatively.

"It must be notified!" Suzuki Sadaji immediately changed the subject: "However, I know Kojima Kichizo, he is very cunning, if this matter is not handled properly, it will be planted on our heads, so we have to guard against it. !"

"Brigade Commander, what do you mean, the Fourth Cavalry Brigade will blame us for the capture of the Fushimi Palace because the Eighth Route Army is operating in our defense area?" said Genji Abe, the chief of staff at the side. .

"Not bad!"

The subsequent developments were exactly as Suzuki Sadaji expected. The Japanese troops in Anyang and Shangqiu tried to shirk responsibility from each other.

The Japanese army in Shangqiu said that the opponent's ineffectiveness in maintaining law and order in the defense area caused the main force of the Eighth Route Army to act recklessly in the Hebei, Shandong and Henan areas.

The Japanese army in Anyang accused that the main force of the Eighth Route Army had clearly infiltrated the Zhinan area from southwest Shandong, and accused the Fourth Cavalry Brigade of rebelling against it.

While the two sides were arguing, no one mentioned the specifics of how to rescue Fushimi Gong Mingyi, as if they forgot that Prince Guizi was still in the hands of the Eighth Route Army.

The words are divided into two parts.

After the Hebei-Shandong-Henan anti-stubborn campaign ended, Zhou Weihan asked someone to sort out the course of the battle in detail, and reported it directly to the Eighth Route Army headquarters.

The report materials even mentioned the ghost prince Fushimi Gong Mingyi who was captured by our army.

Inside the Eighth Route Army headquarters.

The boss, the deputy chief of staff, and Yang Shankun, the head of the Northern Bureau, gathered together, and the three discussed matters related to the Hebei, Shandong and Henan regions.

"To be honest, I have heard the name of Comrade Zhou Weihan mentioned many times by comrades, but it is a pity that I have never met each other. This time, the situation in the Hebei-Shandong-Henan region can be reversed. Comrade Zhou Weihan has contributed a lot!" said the leader of the Northern Bureau. It can be said that Zhou Weihan is full of praise.

Zhou Weihan is now the boss's capable general, and the leader of the Northern Bureau praised Zhou Weihan in front of him. Even though the always serious boss had a smile on his face, he said, "Don't praise him, It is true that Zhou Weihan is a good comrade, but he is too young, it makes sense for him to be big and attractive, and it is easy to attract people's envy!"

"Now he is not only in charge of the military affairs, but also the burden of the local government. It is inappropriate for one person to hold several positions, isn't it?"

"Haha! Boss, I asked why you called me here today. It turned out to be such a thing. Before Comrade Zhou Weihan went to Hebei, Shandong and Henan, I represented the Northern Bureau to give him the right to do things cheaply. There is no need to question this. !"

"Comrade Weihan is young. I originally thought of putting more burdens on him, but since you, boss, are open and upright in protecting your confidant and beloved general, then it is not easy for me to continue to let Comrade Weihan be responsible!"

After hearing this, the deputy chief of staff explained: "Zhou Weihan himself asked for this matter. The leadership team of the Tainan Military Region has stayed in Tainan. He is alone in Hebei, Shandong and Henan, and he has taken the initiative to ask the headquarters to send more manpower!"

"Well, the reconstruction of the Hebei-Shandong-Yuan base area is of great importance, and it is true that we should send more people, but I really can't find suitable people here to take charge of the overall situation. You two, do you have suitable people?" asked Yang from the Northern Bureau. road.

The boss and the deputy chief of staff looked at each other, and then the deputy chief of staff said: "The day before yesterday, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China called. Comrade Tan Lin has set off from Yanzhou to Taihang Mountain, and he will arrive a year ago!"

"What do you mean?"

"What we mean is to restore the two-level organizational system of the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Military Region, and let Comrade Tan Lin serve as the political commissar to partner with Zhou Weihan. However, this is just the appointment of personnel by the Eighth Route Army Headquarters to the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Military Region. The local government's candidates still need to be decided by the Northern Bureau !"

"Comrade Tan Lin is a good person. There is no need to say his qualifications, and his political skills are equally outstanding!" Mrs. Yang said nothing, as if thinking about something.

The boss and the deputy chief of staff didn't urge them either, they quietly waited for Mrs. Yang's reply.

In fact, Tan Lin served as the deputy director of the Political Department of the Eighth Route Army in Yanzhou, and concurrently served as the secretary of the teachers and comrades.

During the Red Army period, he participated in the Autumn Harvest Uprising, adapted from Sanwan, and held important positions in the Fourth Red Army. He partnered with Li Jukui, the first chief of staff of the 386 brigade. Li served as the division commander, and Tan Lin served as the division political commissar.

Tan Linneng came to the front line from Yanzhou because the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army specifically applied to Yanzhou.

"One thing does not bother two masters. The base area of ​​Hebei, Shandong and Henan is no different than other places. It requires a high degree of cooperation between the army and the local government. Since Comrade Tan Lin is here, let him take charge of the work at the local level!"

"Nowadays, the two prefectural governments of Zhinan and Southwest Shandong do not have the same personnel, so they should be merged into one, and the Hebei, Shandong and Henan prefectural governments will be established, which will be directly under the jurisdiction of the Northern Bureau. Comrade Tan Lin will serve as the director of the prefectural governments. What do you think?" Yang* * said.

"We sure have no objections!"

"Hey, I knew it, you guys!"

"My good comrade, don't blame me for playing tricks. You know that the current situation in Hebei, Shandong and Yu is not optimistic. Zhou Weihan can only control a small area in Zhinan. He has a heavy burden on him!"

"A competent partner is urgently needed to stabilize the rear base, so that he can free up his hands to deal with the little devil!" The boss explained.

At this time, Zhou Weihan was just as the boss said, he was obsessed with the big and small affairs of the base area.

Don't look at Zhou Weihan's usual talk about whether it is the army, local government construction, or even the economic development of the base area, and he can even give targeted suggestions, but let the words go.

Only when it was the turn of the real swordsman to do it, did he realize that this matter was not so easy.

Zhou Weihan couldn't help thinking of Zhao Gang and Wang Ying's friendship, but the two held important positions in the Tainan base area, so they couldn't move easily, Zhou Weihan could only hope that the superior would send people to Hebei, Shandong and Henan as soon as possible.
