base of war

During this period of time, many young people joined the guerrillas, and Su Yuan was eager to see the development of this team. On the one hand, he trained the troops, and the guerrillas had expanded to three divisions, each with more than 100 people. For the scouts, he arranged for Li Zhuang, Meng Tian, ​​and Xiao Yun to be the sub-captains to actively train the troops.

Su Yuan, who was gradually getting stronger and stronger, began to pay attention to Ancheng. Through Shanzi and Hong Hai's inquiries, Su Yuan learned that there were only a hundred devils in Ancheng, and some puppet special forces and the like.

The devils in the villages and towns around Ancheng were so frightened that they retreated back to Ancheng. As for the devils in the neighboring counties, they couldn't send reinforcements.At this time, the devil brigade has already moved south, and there are not many left behind in the occupied area, that is, only one squadron is left by the devils who are important in Ancheng's geography, and there are only a few dozen devils in the surrounding counties. Su Yuan naturally doesn't pay attention to this , he felt a bit like the Monkey King who got into the belly of Princess Iron Fan, and he was ready to fight.

However, everyone has some objections to Su Yuan's decision. With the current strength of the guerrillas, the chances of attacking the strong city wall defended by the devils are uncertain, and even if they can be defeated, there will be heavy casualties. However, once the devils gather their forces to counterattack, Ancheng will inevitably be lost. The guerrillas do not have a stable base yet, and once the devils press up, I am afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses.

"Let's do it this way." Chunlei finally suggested: "Let's report the situation here to our superiors. If the superiors can send troops to cooperate, it will not be too late."

"Yes, during this period of time we should develop our strength first, and finally establish a preliminary guerrilla base." Baoguo also suggested.

"Captain Meng, what do you think?" Su Yuan asked Meng Tian.

"I don't doubt your ability, but..." Meng Tian said: "Now the situation around Ancheng and the surrounding counties is very complicated, and there are many guerrilla miscellaneous armed forces. Mixed, it is best to unite, and we must take precautions if we cannot unite, after all, many of them are just under the banner of resisting Japan.”

"This suggestion is good." Su Yuan was moved, and he immediately said: "How about this, Chunlei will be responsible for reporting to the superiors, and you and Baoguo will continue to promote our policies. We will establish our own political power in this area. Captain Meng, I will leave it to you to contact other armed forces."

Soon, the reply from the superior came. After affirming their achievements, they also gave instructions on their future work and operations. The current situation is still based on building base areas to accumulate strength, and it is necessary to widely publicize the party's anti-Japanese program Mobilize all levels to establish a democratic regime, and at the same time propose that establishing base areas and carrying out guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines is the correct way to achieve victory in the Anti-Japanese War. At present, it is better not to fight head-on with the devils.

During this period, because the guerrillas became famous for defeating the devils in Ancheng, they were the real anti-Japanese armed forces. Many armed forces around sent people to contact them. enter.

But there are other cases, some larger ones occupy the territory, and the leaders just want to help each other in their own interests, and they flatter the guerrilla forces and even ask for help.

But they are still somewhat armed, and they also have some strength, and even asked Meng Tian who came to ask the guerrillas to belong to their command.

"What, who dares to say such big words?" After listening to Meng Tian's report, Su Yuan asked with a smile.

"It's Zhang Dashan on Qinglong Mountain." Meng Tian replied: "They occupy the favorable terrain of Qinglong Mountain, and they have attracted many people under the banner of resisting Japan, but they have ambushed several times. With some fame, there are more than 200 people in the team, so I am a little unconvinced."

"Well, Zhang Dashan, how is this person?" Su Yuan asked thoughtfully.

"This person used to work in the army, but was later fired for violating discipline. After returning to his hometown, he injured others for helping others fight for land." Speaking of this, Meng Tian explained: "That is a bully, and he was later imprisoned in Ancheng Prison. After the Japanese invaders came, he took the opportunity to escape with some people, and later formed a team in Qinglong Mountain."

"Really, that can be regarded as a hero." Su Yuan became interested.This Qinglong Mountain is second only to Feiyun Mountain's armed forces, and the terrain is dangerous, it is an excellent position to establish a solid base behind.

"This man is very fierce. His marksmanship is very good. He can shoot incense heads at a distance of [-] meters at night. I heard that his kung fu is also good." Meng Tian introduced.

"Then I should go to the meeting." Su Yuan immediately decided.
