The Rise of the Great Powers in the War of Resistance

For a whole morning, the No. 30 Sixth Army dispatched [-] to [-] transport planes to airdrop hundreds of tons of ammunition to the positions of the national army in Zhengzhou, Kaifeng, and Luoyang.

A large number of national army troops short of ammunition received supplies. Many national army soldiers, while receiving these ammunition, were very grateful to the No. 30 Sixth Army.

With sufficient ammunition, a large number of national army troops attacking Zhengzhou, Kaifeng, Luoyang and other places have improved significantly compared to yesterday. Many troops have also reversed the passive situation in one fell swoop and occupied Offensive advantage.

chongqing.

At noon, Chairman Jiang received a report from the Chief of the First Theater Command. Chairman Jiang looked at the contents of the telegram in disbelief. The No.30 Sixth Army actually supplied air supplies to the national army and added a lot of ammunition to everyone. "Medicine", this is really unbelievable. [

Looking at Chairman Jiang's puzzled expression, how Yingqin, Chen Cheng, and other high-ranking members of the Kuomintang were a little strange, thinking in his heart, what's wrong with the committee?Could it be that the battle in the first theater is not going well?

"Everyone, take a look at the telegram just sent by the first war zone. What do you think?"

Generalissimo Jiang raised the telegram slightly and handed it to He Yingqin who was closest to him. After reading the telegram, He Yingqin frowned and handed it to the person next to him.

Within a few minutes, everyone read the telegram one after another. Everyone had different expressions, some were puzzled, some were happy.Almost everyone has an idea of ​​their own.

"Chairman, I don't think the No.30 Sixth Army has any good intentions! It is obvious. The No.30 Sixth Army is buying the hearts of the frontline soldiers. We must quickly stop the No.30 Sixth Army's behavior."

He Yingqin spoke first, and his tone was full of worry and indignation. Obviously, he had a lot of opinions on the No.30 Sixth Army's approach.

Lao Jiang's heart was also full of worries at this time, fearing that the soldiers on the front line would be full of gratitude to the No. 30 Sixth Army.However, Lao Jiang's heart is also quite contradictory.

Lao Jiang is well aware of the lack of ammunition in the frontline troops, and he very much hopes to obtain the scarce ammunition.Today, it is a good thing that the frontline troops have obtained so much ammunition at once.It's just that Lao Jiang didn't accept the way of No.30's Sixth Army, and it was a bit petty.

Seeing that Generalissimo Jiang was silent, Chen Cheng also began to speak, but Chen Cheng's views were completely different from He Yingqin's. Chen Cheng was optimistic and welcomed the support of the No.30 Sixth Army.

"Chairman, I personally think that our worries are unnecessary. The No.30 Sixth Army has supported us with a large amount of ammunition for free. I think it is a good thing. With these ammunition, we all The troops can recover Zhengzhou, Kaifeng and Luoyang faster.  …”

Before Chen Cheng finished speaking, Lao Jiang waved his hand impatiently.Interrupting Chen Cheng's speech, Lao Jiang said in a deep voice: "Everyone, our frontline troops are in short supply of ammunition, and the No. 30 Sixth Army just caught our weakness. Do you have any good solutions?"

Bai Chongxi, who had not spoken all this time, said slowly at this time: "Chairman. I have a way."

Chairman Jiang nodded, staring at Bai Chongxi, waiting for the next sentence.

Bai Chongxi continued: "Chairman, we can send people to Datong. We will pay for the weapons and ammunition we urgently need from the No. 30 Sixth Army. This time, the No. 30 Sixth Army will drop airdrops on our troops once A large amount of ammunition, it can be seen that the No.30 Sixth Army's weapons and ammunition are very abundant, and it is entirely possible for us to buy the weapons and ammunition we urgently need."

After Bai Chongxi finished speaking, many high-ranking members of the Kuomintang nodded, and everyone was more in favor of this plan.

Chairman Jiang also nodded, "I think this plan works, so let's do it like this."

Chen Cheng and Zhang Yunfei have dealt with each other several times, and they are relatively familiar with each other. This time, Generalissimo Jiang entrusted Chen Cheng to lead the team and take the opportunity to go to Datong to purchase weapons and ammunition from the No. 30 Sixth Army.

****************

On the second day after more than 30 divisions of the Kuomintang army besieged Zhengzhou, Kaifeng, Luoyang and other places, after a day's rest, several columns of the No. [-] Sixth Army began to move south from Beiping, Tianjin and other places, preparing to recover other places in North China. Cities, such as Dezhou, Cangzhou and other medium-sized cities. [

Except for Zhengzhou, Kaifeng, Luoyang, and around Xuzhou where there are a large number of little devils in the North China Front Army of the little devils, there are not many little devils in the rest of the small and medium-sized cities.

In these places, the little devils are generally the size of squads and squadrons. Only in medium-sized cities can there be brigades or regiments of little devils. In many small towns, there are no little devils, just some puppet troops stationed.

The little devils are so weak in these areas, wherever the No. 30 Sixth Army went, the little devils either fled or were wiped out.

On that day, in just one day, the leading troops of each column of the No.30 Sixth Army advanced hundreds of kilometers to the south. The leading troops are generally mechanized infantry regiments, tank regiments, cavalry regiments, and even motorized infantry regiments. A unit with strong "sex".

Not only pushed the front line southward for hundreds of kilometers, but also recovered more than a dozen small counties, killed more than 2000 little devils, and captured nearly [-] puppet troops.

As for the Eighth Route Army, after recovering Jinan, only a few days later, it mobilized a lot of troops, centered on Jinan, and attacked everywhere, repeatedly recovering many counties and small towns near Jinan.

At this time, North China has entered a state of full-scale war. Whether it is the No.30 Sixth Army, the Eighth Route Army or the National Army, they have launched attacks on the little devils. The 10,000+ little devils in North China may not last long.

August [-]th, Datong.

Yesterday, the No. 30 Sixth Army received a telegram from the KMT's Chongqing side. This morning, Chen Cheng will lead a delegation to Datong to discuss the procurement of weapons and ammunition with the No. 30 Sixth Army.

At Datong Airport, Zhang Yunfei came to greet him in person. Together with Zhang Yunfei, Comrade Deng Wenping, Director of the General Political Department, and Comrade Zuo Qingquan, Chief of the General Staff, and Liu Dazhu, Deputy Commander-in-Chief, stayed at the headquarters to direct the battles of the columns.

This time, Zhang Yunfei went to the airport to greet Chen Cheng and his party in person, which was enough to give Chen Cheng face. Zhang Yunfei still thought that Chen Cheng had come to Datong many times and had a good impression of Chen Cheng. Too lazy to meet at the airport in person.

However, even if Zhang Yunfei came to greet him, he did so on time. Chen Cheng's plane arrived at Datong Airport at about eleven o'clock. As soon as Chen Cheng's plane left Chongqing, it sent a telegram to the No.30 Sixth Army. Should be pretty accurate.

Zhang Yunfei looked at his watch. It was less than 10 minutes before eleven o'clock in the morning. Standing on the airport, Zhang Yunfei looked at the long runway not far away. Behind Zhang Yunfei were Comrade Deng Wenping and a dozen security personnel. In addition, Gao Zhihang, the captain of the flight team, also stood sideways behind Zhang Yunfei.

"Zhihang! Has the plane we greeted taken off yet?"

Seeing Zhang Yunfei's question, Gao Zhihang immediately stood at attention, and replied sternly: "Commander-in-Chief, half an hour ago, one of our Mustang fighter squadrons took off, and by now, they should have joined Minister Chen's plane.

Minister Chen at Gaozhi Hangkou is naturally the Kuomintang Defense Minister Chen Cheng. Chen Cheng's plane was discovered and locked by the radar station before it entered Shanxi. The direction and flight route are very clear. At this time, he must have already picked up Chen Cheng's plane.

Hearing this, Zhang Yunfei nodded and said with a smile: "Comrades, this time the Kuomintang side came to purchase weapons and ammunition, we still can't lose our courtesy."

What Zhang Yunfei meant was obvious. This time, the hospitality should be warm and thoughtful, at least on the surface, and the Kuomintang side should not be allowed to make irresponsible remarks. Moreover, this time the Kuomintang side came to purchase weapons and ammunition, which is equivalent to giving No. 30 The Sixth Army sent money.

Even if Chen Cheng and his party were treated warmly and politely, it would not cost much. Compared with this large purchase fund, it was nothing.

For the procurement of weapons and ammunition, Zhang Yunfei had clearly informed the Kuomintang in advance that all the transactions were real money, not legal currency. Now that the legal currency has depreciated greatly, Zhang Yunfei only needs oceans, silver or gold.

Now, although the area of ​​the Kuomintang-controlled area has shrunk greatly and various taxes have been greatly reduced, there are still a lot of silver and gold in the major banks of the Kuomintang and in the treasury. Zhang Yunfei is not worried at all that Lao Jiang will not be able to produce these things.

While Zhang Yunfei was chatting with Deng Wenping, Gao Zhihang, etc., he looked at his watch from time to time, and the time passed quickly. After seven or eight minutes, he could see the figure of the plane in the distance. [

"Commander-in-Chief! The plane is coming."

Gao Zhihang, the captain of the flight team, reminded Zhang Yunfei with a smile on his face.

Zhang Yunfei looked at the sky in the distance, and saw more than [-] Mustang fighters, surrounded by this small transport plane, flying towards this side. This small transport plane is several times larger than the Mustang fighter, and its color is also different. It's different, even though the distance is relatively far, Zhang Yunfei still sees it.

This transport plane is exactly Chen Cheng's landline. Not only is Chen Cheng sitting on it, but there are also more than a dozen people accompanying Chen Cheng.

The fleet was getting closer and lower, and after a while, under the guidance of the airport tower, Chen Cheng's plane landed and taxied on one runway, and the other escorting Mustang fighter planes also landed on other runways one by one.
