    Chapter 292: Taking up Territory

    Peiping City, midnight, all the furniture is quiet and the lights are dim.

    Tang Qiuli rushed back to Peiping after a long journey. It was already midnight. The city had been noisy all day. He fell asleep peacefully. There was not a single pedestrian on the road. There were only a few entertainment venues. The lights were bright, the sound of silk and bamboo, and the dim street lights.  The people on the road were scattered in the photo, and the patrolling city defense troops of the 29th Army, fully armed, walked by from time to time.

    In today¡¯s Peiping, there is no shadow of the bustling metropolis of later generations. It is ancient and heavy, and there is an atmosphere of obsolescence and decay, as if the sun is setting on the west, which makes Tang Qiuli feel a lot of emotion.

    Seeing a large number of troops coming in front, the soldiers on the patrol came over with guns to question. When they saw it was the acting commander, they hurriedly saluted in surprise. They were very concerned about this acting commander and the soldiers of the 29th Army.  Respected and liked.

    As soon as the acting commander took office, he sent us a lot of good weapons. The most important thing is that he raised our salary by a lot. He has been serving as a soldier for several years. My family has never seen the white flowers in the ocean. This time I saw it.  , just last month, I sent it home as soon as the payment was paid. In the letter sent by my parents, they also asked me to work hard and not let down the kindness of the superior to me.

    Seeing the high-spirited soldiers of the 29th Army, Tang Qiuli was very happy. The mental outlook of an army directly affects the combat effectiveness. Now, when the 29th Army faces the Japanese soldiers, except for the equipment, everything else is inferior.  It¡¯s really not that far off.

    Beiping City is not as peaceful and peaceful as it is now. After three days of hunting, all the fish floating on the water have been caught. However, Ping and Tianjin have always been a place where fish and dragons are mixed. People lurking in the deep water are waiting for the opportunity.  how many?

    What is particularly noteworthy is that the Japanese have been unusually quiet since they suffered a big loss. They have neither taken retaliatory actions nor shown any signs of mobilizing troops. This is not a normal phenomenon in itself. Are they brewing a big conspiracy?

    Thinking of this, Tang Qiuli turned his head and said to Mei Ting who was beside him: "Director Mei, the focus of your Inspection Office's work in the recent period is to keep a close eye on the Japanese and not let go of any clues."

    Tang Qiuli's sudden question startled Mei Ting. On the way back to Peking, Tang Qiuli didn't feel anything at all, but this girl felt differently. Ever since that casual touch at the Huangyadong meeting  , Mei Ting's psychological defense completely collapsed.

    In her opinion, this is what the ancients called "skin-to-skin contact". Her body has never been touched by a man. In such a complicated environment of military rule, Mei Ting can be alone. This shows how powerful her self-protection ability is.  powerful.

    Along the way, she was thinking wildly, sometimes happy and sometimes sad. She also secretly cursed herself for being useless. Her heart was tightly tied to this big boy who was four years younger than her. After entering Peking, she was still immersed in herself.  In the dream.

    Mei Ting likes the slightly ancient and melancholy nights in Peiping. Such nights remind people of many things, especially being with the people she likes.

    Mei Ting, who was immersed in the night, only heard Tang Qiuli's last words and looked at Tang Qiuli blankly. At this moment, the smart, capable, courageous and quick Mei Ting was gone, just like a girl next door.  The appearance of a child.

    Tang Qiuli gave her a serious look, quite dissatisfied. At this time, he required his subordinates to be alert at all times. However, he was also surprised that Mei Ting's personality seemed to have changed since she came back from Huangya Cave.  Many of them are no longer so cold-hearted.

    This made him a little uncomfortable. He didn't know that it was all his own fault, disturbing the girl's heart for no reason. Tang Qiuli repeated the order again, and Mei Ting regained her clarity. At this time, for  The greatest help to those you care about is to share their burdens.

    At this point, Mei Ting and Xiao Ling are surprisingly similar. They never cause trouble to the person they like, but instead share the burden for him.

    The next day, Tang Qiuli went down to the units of the 29th Army to check the training situation. He had to be concerned. During the July 7th Incident, the 29th Army would be the first unit to fight the Japanese.  Will appear as a surprise soldier.

    The combat effectiveness of the troops was his biggest concern. For this reason, he traveled to various defense areas of the 29th Army and even went to the front line to personally observe the movements of the Japanese troops on the opposite side. The drills of the Japanese troops on the opposite side were not ambiguous at all, and they were calm.  , showing such a murderous aura.

    He found that the forward fortifications of many troops were prepared for infantry defense and lacked a deep and three-dimensional defense system. In particular, air defense and anti-artillery were ignored. Once the war started, under the joint air-ground firepower attack of the Japanese army, the frontline troops' combat capabilities would be greatly reduced.  The loss rate will reach astonishing figures.

    It can be like thisUnder the army's first joint air-ground attack, the forward troops of the 29th Army will lose more than half of their strength in key attack areas, and may be completely annihilated. At the beginning of the war of aggression against China, the Japanese army's offensive was fierce, invincible, and overwhelming. The Japanese army relied on  It is closely coordinated air and ground firepower, especially artillery firepower.

    After discovering this dangerous shortcoming, Tang Qiuli ordered his troops to immediately renovate the fortifications wherever they went to form a deep and three-dimensional defense system, adding many anti-gun holes and air-raid shelters. In the forward positions, the troop density should not be too high.  , to avoid being massacred by the fierce firepower of the Japanese army.

    Later, seeing that this phenomenon was common in the 29th Army, we simply summoned the commanders at all levels of the army in a typical area and explained to them on the spot the main characteristics of offense and defense in modern warfare.

    In the words of later generations, he held an on-site meeting. At the meeting, he also emphasized not to care about the gains and losses of one city or one place, and not to confront the Japanese army with superior firepower and troops. Only by protecting yourself can you better eliminate them.  enemy.

    Unless the defensive troops receive a death order, they must defend in place. Even if there is only one person left, they are not allowed to retreat. This is to comply with the needs of the battle. Over the past few days, officers at all levels in the 29th Army have opened their eyes.  Fascinated by the unprecedented combat theory, he admired the acting commander and almost worshiped him as a god.

    Seeing this, Tang Qiuli was very touched. These soldiers were brave enough to fight, but what they were about to face was the Japanese army, which had long planned to occupy China. Japanese officers had all received military school education and graduated from the Army Non-Commissioned Officer School.  After that, he entered the Imperial Army University in Tokyo, Japan to continue his studies.

    Possessing extremely strong frontal combat theory and practical operational capabilities, Japanese military officers advocated decisive battles with the main force and liked large group duels. They suffered heavy losses in the early days of the War of Resistance. How many brave soldiers were able to engage in decisive battles with the Japanese army who had superior ground and air firepower?  Not seeing the Japanese ghosts, he fell under Japanese planes and artillery.

    Only the guerrilla warfare invented by his old man became the real nemesis of the Japanese army. There was no trace of the opponent, but he was always surrounded by the opponent. The shadow of the enemy was everywhere. Until Japan was defeated, no effective way to deal with guerrilla warfare was found.  method.

    A school must be established in Huangyadong. I have already thought of a name, so I will use the name of the later Yan'an Anti-Japanese Military and Political University and call it Taihangshan Anti-Japanese Military and Political University. Various strategies and tactics must be taught. From now on, we must recruit talents from all aspects.  , Tang Qiuli secretly made up his mind.

    After a lot of work, Tang Qiuli returned to Peiping and appointed himself an official. Anyway, the Hebei-Cha Political Affairs Committee has the final say now. The location of the official position is in the Taihang Mountains area that he has coveted for a long time.  The name is "Office of the Taihang Mountain Region Administrative Commissioner of the Hebei-Cha Government Affairs Commission," and his official title is the Special Commissioner of the Administrative Commissioner's Office.

    As soon as the report was submitted, the Executive Yuan of the Nanjing Government quickly approved it and fully agreed with it. However, the Executive Yuan did not have the money to start the Commissioner's Office. The official reply said so, because it is a local special agency.  , all expenses related to the office will be settled by the Hebei-Cha Government Affairs Committee.

    Those officials in the Nanjing Executive Yuan happily gave away favors. Who went to that poor mountain valley where rabbits didn't poop? They didn't need the central government to pay a penny, and they gave this famous Chairman Chiang a face and empty official title.  It doesn¡¯t hurt to give it away.

    These officials in the Executive Yuan have not carefully considered that the Taihang Mountains stretch for more than 800 miles and connect Hebei, Rehe, Chahar, Shanxi, Henan, Peiping, and Tianjin. Even Shandong is named because of its location.  It rises from the eastern foothills of Taihang Mountain. How big is this geographical scope?

    I¡¯m afraid that when the time comes, it¡¯s not just the Taihang Mountain District Administrative Commissioner¡¯s Office in Tang Qiuli that will give them a headache. The first person who won¡¯t spare them is Shanxi Chief Yan. Isn¡¯t that just cutting off his flesh?

    In this way, more than half of the land in western Shanxi was assigned to Tang Qiuli's name, which was equivalent to cutting off one of the arms of Commander Yan that stretched out to the Great Plains of North China. With Yan Xishan's personality, he could give up and not ask for administrative help.  It¡¯s strange that the hospital worked so hard.

    Tang Qiuli pretended not to know, and waited for Chief Yan to come to the door. At that time, he would not care about his own territory, but come to move reinforcements. I, Tang Qiuli, only want a small piece of Shanxi from you.  Territory, the Japanese want all of your property, Chief Yan, to take over your head. Chief Yan will weigh it clearly.

    When the new official took office, Tang Qiuli immediately exercised his power and went deep into the troops in various counties in the Taihang Mountains. The highest military commander of the local garrison also served as the local county magistrate. The original county magistrate was dismissed on the spot and could be promoted to a member of the Hebei-Cha Government Affairs Committee.  If you are willing to come to Peiping to work, you will be considered an honorable retiree.

    "But there is one thing. I don't have a big pension. Not only that, but I also have to use the money I collected when I was the county magistrate."?If he vomits out all the information and conceals it, once it is found out, his property will be immediately confiscated and all confiscated. He will also have to go to the North China Labor Reformatory Hospital to work and receive reform.

    Immediately, the Taihang Mountain area was in a state of panic, and people were panicked. The old forces were uprooted and destroyed almost overnight. Li Honggang and other Communist Party members showed their talents and worked enthusiastically and energetically.
