Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

In mid-June 1942, the troops of the two sides continued to fight around the areas of Guanzhong, Longdong, and Sanbian, which belonged to Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia, and invested a total of more than 6 troops.

The momentum in the Guanzhong area is huge, but the two sides did not intend to meet each other, but reached a tacit agreement to fight back.

The main force of the national army in the trilateral area is the Majiajun. The enemy and the enemy have deep grievances. As early as the Western Route Army's western expedition, the two sides forged a bridge. The tense relationship was eased.

Although Ma Jiajun expressed support for the leadership of the Nationalist Government, the local warlords had their own internal system and did not want the old man to take the opportunity to weaken their strength.

The Central Army's proposal to enter the trilateral area to suppress the Eighth Route Army's base areas was also considered by the Ma's army as an act of the Central Army's occupation of territory.

Aiming at the complex situation around the Shanxi-Gansu-Ningxia base area, No. [-] decisively proposed the strategy of uniting the horses against the generals, and the effect was extremely obvious. So far, the relationship between the Ma family army and the Eighth Route Army has been quite ambiguous.

Secretly, the two sides have more trade exchanges, and at the same time, there is another secret channel from the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia base to the frontier and then to contact Big Brother.

Therefore, this time the Majiajun was ordered to attack the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia base area, but there was much thunder and little rain.

Only the No.16 Army stationed in the Longdong area fought the most intense battle with the Longdong Army Division of the Eighth Route Army. This time when attacking the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia base area, Hu Zongnan issued a death order to the [-]th Army, ordering it to break through from the middle of the Longdong area. The national armies of the East and the West acted as flanks to relieve pressure on them.

A landowner's compound in Lions Bay served as an interim headquarters.

In just one day, under the guidance of local cadres headed by Geng Zilin, the Luochuan Independence Group took the initiative to attack and wiped out the stubborn forces that governed the six towns under the base.

Although some bullies and squires had the advantage of the high-walled compound, the small cannons brought by the members of Nai He Kang University were not for nothing.

Then it took six days for most of the personnel of the military and government systems to sink to various villages to quickly complete the division of fields.

A map of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia base was placed on the table, and Zhou Weihan and others gathered together.

"Teacher Zhou, our army's troops on the front line include the fifth security regiment, two independent battalions, and half of the regiment brought by Commander Dong. The first army in Luochuan has three times as many troops as our army and is well equipped. Excellent, why is the offensive performance so weak, it seems that he has no intention of fighting?" Geng Zilin said with a little doubt.

Zhou Weihan chuckled when he heard the words: "He, Hu Zongnan, seems to have an army of 10,000+ and is in power, but his internal affairs are not clean, and there are many factions. The first army is the army he started from, and it is the capital for him to subdue other factions. Our army is at war?"

Xu Licheng nodded after hearing this. He was born in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia base area and knew the situation better than Zhou Weihan.

"Hu Zongnan is an old opponent of our army. He took the initiative to provoke friction several times before and failed to attack our Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia base area. What's more, our army has the upper hand this time. He knows that he can't take advantage this time. It will also lose soldiers and generals!"

"In my opinion, there is an intention to take advantage of the opportunity to suppress dissidents and seize military power. If the No. 16 Army cannot break through our defense line, after the war Hu Zongnan will definitely take advantage of the [-]th Army's wounded muscles and bones to undergo a major exchange of blood!"

The No.16 Army is the direct descendant of Jiang Mingsan, the former chief military officer of the No.30 Fourth Army. Jiang Mingsan is one of the five tiger generals of the national army. According to the exclusion, there is naturally an old man's handwriting behind this.

Then Jiang Mingsan stared at Tianshui, trying to continue to manipulate his direct troops to fight against Hu Zongnan, which in turn caused Hu Zongnan to continue to suppress the Sixteenth Army and other departments.

"From the point of view of the entire northwest region, our army is facing the enemy on all sides, the east can still rely on the natural danger of the Yellow River to resist the Japanese army, the north is connected to Suiyuan Fu Yisheng's army, the west is facing the Majia army, and the south is Hu Zongnan's central army. Survive in the cracks!"

It was only after Zhou Weihan returned to Yanzhou that he realized the severe situation facing the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Base Area. It's just that our top management is a master of chess, and they managed to find a way out in a dead game.

If the Eighth Route Army did not cross the Yellow River eastward, but instead concentrated its forces on the base areas of Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia, it would be tantamount to defending a corner. Sooner or later, it would be trapped to death by the national army. Let the national army be afraid and dare not do it easily.

"From the perspective of the overall situation of the country, this battle is just a microcosm of the friction between the enemy and us. In the past, our army has always kept the conflict open. This time, the Japanese army outside the chess game is eyeing it. The Americans will never allow a big fight at this time!"

A few days later, a large-scale demonstration suddenly broke out in the mountain city. At this time, the people at the bottom of the rear knew that in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia area, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party had been fighting for more than half a month.

As the situation intensified, our representatives in Shancheng publicly published in the newspaper stating that the Eighth Route Army firmly supports the Anti-Japanese National United Front and is willing to stop military conflicts with the national army and jointly defend against foreign enemies.

The Shancheng side debated endlessly for a while, and the national government did not make a specific statement.

"Niang Xipi, Shoushan is incompetent. In vain, I entrusted him with the military and political power in the Northwest. In the past half a month, he has lost territory, lost troops and generals, and put us in a passive position!" The old man stood up and looked around at the many officials of the national government present.

Everyone present did not dare to look directly at him, no one knew the old man's trust in Hu Zongnan, and at this moment everything he said would be scolded in front of the limelight.

However, when it comes to conflicts of interest, there are always people who can see the needles. Chen Cheng got up and said: "Principal, the situation in the northwest is not the responsibility of Shoushan alone. Shoushan is still too young to coordinate the military operations of the Ma and Fu departments. It's better to let the third chief Ming come forward to fight the Northwest War on behalf of the governor!"

As soon as Chen Cheng finished speaking, someone immediately objected.

"No!" Qian Dajun said in a deep voice: "It is unwise to change generals just before the battle, and Ming San has not been in battle for a long time, so he may be even more unable to cope with the current situation!"

"Principal, the Eighth Route Army poured dirty water on us. What they did in the mountain city is tantamount to setting the country's government on fire. This war can no longer continue. The frontline war is already unfavorable. If the people do not support it, I am afraid it is the Americans. We will not sit back and watch the relationship between the two sides deteriorate!"

The old man sighed. From the bottom of his heart, he was more willing to take advantage of the Japanese army's decline in China and take the opportunity to eliminate the serious trouble in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia base area.

It's just that Hu Zongnan's performance was really unsatisfactory, which made the old man have to stop fighting.
