    Du Kaishan's old face turned slightly red when he was patted by Yang Zhen. Even though he was a superior who single-handedly promoted him, but being patted on the shoulder by someone who was several years younger than him said that he had finally matured, the feeling was really not good.  ¡¾.Com text¡¿

    Looking at Du Kaishan, who was slightly embarrassed, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "Go back and discuss it with your team as soon as possible. I have to take a rest. I set off from Luobei in the middle of the night and rode horses continuously along the way.  , but I¡¯m exhausted. I¡¯ll take a rest first and meet someone later.¡±

    Yang Zhen¡¯s words reminded Du Kaishan of the person Yang Zhen asked Xiao Huzi to find just now, and he suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.  I always feel that that person looks a lot like the commander.  I just opened my mouth and hesitated for a long time, not knowing whether to say something or not.

    Seeing that this guy had some ink stains, Yang Zhen said with some displeasure: "Just say whatever comes to mind. I just finished praising you, why are you hesitating again?"

    When Du Kaishan heard this, he gritted his teeth and said: "One hundred and one, I told you not to be angry. Didn't you feel that this one of Finance Minister Yang Ji is somewhat similar to you? It's not that kind of resemblance, but  Your facial features are somewhat similar. If I hadn't known that you joined the army in Guan Nei, I would have thought you were brothers."

    Yang Zhen was a college student who joined the 18th Army, and everyone in the army knew about it.  But he was a native of the Northeast and was born as an exiled student. In order to keep this secret, no one except a few members of the Standing Committee of the Military Region knew about this.  Yang Zhen's birthplace is in the military region and is top secret.  That's why Du Kaishan asked this question.

    After listening to Du Kaishan's question, Yang Zhen shook his head slightly and said: "Go ahead, arrange the candidates early, and rest early. Don't have too many people accompanying you. In addition to my personal guard platoon, you should take your  Bring the training section chief, and bring an old comrade from the Fifth Army."

    Seeing that Yang Zhen was unwilling to answer his questions, Du Kaishan did not ask further questions.  Nodding and turning around, just as he was about to step out of the threshold, he heard Yang Zhen behind him saying: "Lao Du, don't think too much. I have already sent a telegram to the central government and am preparing to pick up your child after the route is opened. At least first  Reunite your father and son."

    Yang Zhen¡¯s words made Du Kaishan slightly stunned. He did not turn around to answer Yang Zhen¡¯s words, but slowly shook his head, sighed and went out.  Looking at Du Kaishan's back, Yang Zhen could only shake his head and smile bitterly.  When I was depressed because of Zhang Ting's sacrifice, I was not qualified to persuade others.  On the contrary, Du Kaishan's psychological endurance in this aspect is much better than his own, and he is much stronger.

    Yang Zhen did not dare to tell Du Kaishan that the whole thing was not what he read in the telegram.  The telegram Yang Zhen asked Tao Jingfei to forward to Du Kaishan was abridged.

    After the younger brother of Du Kaishan¡¯s wife learned that Du Kaishan was still alive from the person who went to pick up the child from the Eighth Office, he immediately secretly told his miserable sister.  When the woman learned that her husband was still alive, she immediately ran out of the salt merchant and went to the 18th Army Group Office in Chengdu to request to go to Yan'an and reunite with her husband.

    But Du Kaishan¡¯s wife was persuaded to go back by the staff of the Chengdu office.  The reason is very simple. Her step-husband is a key target of the 18th Army Group Office in Chengdu.  Once she is accepted, the relationship that the Chengdu office has finally established is in danger of falling apart.

    ¡°And this stubborn woman, after being declined by the office staff, neither returned to the salt merchant¡¯s home nor to her natal family who had hurt her, and she lost track of her.  Although the two families deployed a large number of people to search, they could not be found.

    Yang Zhen was very dissatisfied with the result, and was extremely disgusted and even angry at the actions of the Chengdu office staff, but there was nothing he could do about it.  Although the central government severely criticized the Chengdu Eighth Route Army Office for this matter, and even dismissed the relevant personnel in the office who handled the matter.  But it can't change any results.  Yang Zhen now only hopes that the poor woman is still alive.

    After Du Kaishan left, Yang Zhen turned around and looked at the map.  His fingers were constantly moving on the map along the frontline where enemy and enemy positions were intertwined.  Raohe, Baoqing, Boli, Yilan, Fangzheng, Fengshan, Tieli, Suiling, Tonghe and Wuyun circled in a complete circle.  Then we stopped in the areas of Dedu, Tongbei and Kedong.  This area was the former guerrilla zone of the Third Route Army.

    Yang Zhen looked at the current guerrilla zone of the Third Route Army on the map, but thought of how he had hoped that the Third Route Army would cooperate with him in Lingxi several times during the last battle, but he never received any response from the Third Route Army.

    Regarding the situation of the Third Route Army since the beginning of summer, Yang Zhen was not very clear due to intermittent radio contact.  It was not until after the war that he saw the troops of the Third Route Army retreating into the base area, and he did not know what kind of situation the Third Route Army had encountered in the past six months.  It's not that they don't cooperate with us, but that the Third Route Army has fallen into a situation where it cannot protect itself.

      Although the Japanese army focused on themselves some time ago, they did not give up on clearing out other anti-alliance departments.  Even before September, in order to fully prepare for the attack on itself and stabilize the rear of the Battle of Nomenhan, the Japanese army intensified its efforts to suppress the enemy.

    In order to ensure the stability of the rear, since the beginning of summer, the Kwantung Army deployed a large number of puppet Manchu troops and local independent garrison troops to attack the remaining troops of the First Route Army in southern Manchuria and the Third Route Army in Western Manchuria.  The Puppet Manchukuo army and police were the main force, with a small number of Japanese local garrison teams participating and supervising the operations, and carried out a large-scale sweep like an encirclement on all sides and a dragnet.  The focus is on the Third Route Army.

    This move by the Japanese and puppet troops was to defeat all the troops that could cooperate with Yang Zhen during the war.  The intention of the Kwantung Army is obvious. There is nothing I can do against you now, but I can kill the troops that are cooperating with you and cut off your wings.  Putting you into a situation where you are fighting alone.

    After withdrawing from the west, the Third Route Army adjusted its organization in order to conduct guerrilla warfare more flexibly and attack the Japanese army.  The original structures of the 3rd, 6th, 9th and 11th Army were abolished and restructured into four independent detachments.  The organization was reduced, the organization was enriched, and the large amount of equipment and ammunition provided by Yang Zhen allowed the Third Route Army to regain its vitality for a time.

    The number of people has also grown from a few hundred to nearly two thousand, and the equipment has also been greatly improved.  Although it has not completely restored the scale of more than 3,000 people in its heyday, it has regained its strength slightly.  They were active in Lingxi and opened up several large-scale guerrilla base areas based on the mountains.  They even captured several county towns such as Keshan, Zhaoyuan, and Nehe.

    However, the good times did not last long. In the dragnet-style sweep carried out by the Japanese and puppet troops this time, the Third Route Army, which had just recovered its strength, suffered another serious setback.  In just one month of August, one-third of the troops suffered casualties and fled under the full-scale attack of the Japanese and puppet troops.

    They barely managed to hold on until autumn, before the Third Route Army could take a breath.  After the Japanese and puppet troops launched an offensive in the Xiajiang area.  In order to cooperate with the Kwantung Army's attack on Yang Zhen's headquarters, a large number of additional troops were added to the original suppression forces, and larger-scale suppression operations were continuously launched against the Third Route Army.

    In order to completely eliminate the Third Route Army, the Kwantung Army, in addition to the original two mixed brigades and the Puppet Manchukuo police forces in various counties and districts, and some forest police forces.  Two regiments of the Xing'an Army and two brigades of the Belarusian Railway Garrison were also mobilized. The three have just been organized and are composed of Koreans in Manchuria. Although they are within the puppet Manchu Army's establishment, they are directly under the Kwantung Army Headquarters.  The so-called special mission.  As a result, the number of Japanese and puppet troops in Lingxi increased sharply to nearly 30,000 people.

    Under the massive siege of the superior Japanese and puppet troops, the Third Route Army has fought hard several times since the beginning of autumn, but has never been able to change the situation.  Not only did the troops suffer heavy casualties, but all the newly opened guerrilla zones were lost.  The troops were divided by the Japanese and puppet troops in Dedu, Tongbei, Hailun, Baiquan, and Nehe counties. They could only fight independently and lost the ability to support each other.

    After two months of hard fighting, the Sixth Detachment, which was active in Tongbei, Hailun, and Wangkui, suffered one-third casualties and was no longer able to fight anymore.  The detachment leader Guo Tiejian and political commissar Yu Tianfang commanded the initiative to withdraw westward. With the support of the Second Division and the First Army, they retreated into the base area with relatively small losses.

    Only the 12th detachment that was active in the Bayan, Wangkui, Suihua, and Qingcheng areas, led by detachment leader Zhang Guangdi and political commissar Zhang Yunsheng, fought and retreated under the cover of the troops sent by the third division, even losing the wounded, retreated into Fengshan and stood firm.  The organizational structure still maintains a certain degree of integrity.

    The No. 3 and No. 9 detachments operating in the West Manne River, Gannan, Zhalantun, Arong Banner, and Jingxing areas suffered heavy losses under the key attacks of the Japanese and puppet troops. Commanders at all levels sacrificed one after another, and the situation became increasingly difficult.

    Qi Zhizhong, the former commander of the Eleventh Army who returned from Jiangbei with Zhao Shangzhi, and the captain of the Third Detachment after returning to the Third Route Army, died in the battle in Gannan.  Zhao Jingfu, the political commissar of the third detachment, was seriously injured and captured while covering the headquarters in Dedu and the North Manchuria Provincial Party Committee during the breakout. Because he vowed not to surrender, he was thrown into a wolf-dog pen by the Japanese military police in Dedu and fed to the wolves alive.

    When Lei Yan, leader of the Ninth Detachment, led two companies of more than a hundred people to collect food in Nehe, he was informed by a traitor and was surrounded by more than a thousand people from the Japanese and puppet Nehe Punishment Team and the Belarusian Railway Police at the junction of Nehe and Gannan.  After a day and night of hard fighting, they were still unable to break through and the entire army was destroyed.  After the detachment leader Lei Yan died, his head was cut off by the Japanese and puppet troops and hung at the gate of Nehe City for public display.

    After the sacrifice of senior commanders one after another, the remnants of the 39th and 39th detachments, under the command of Wang Jun, the political commissar of the 9th detachment, and Wang Minggui, the successor captain of the 3rd detachment, retreated while fighting. After several hard battles, they broke through the encirclement.  By the time they entered the northern mountainous area of ??Bei'an and met up with the Third Route Army Headquarters and the North Manchurian Provincial Committee, the number of the two detachments that once had strength had dropped sharply to less than 300 people.

    By the beginning of winter, the troops trapped by the Japanese and puppet troops in the Third Route Army staying in Lingxi, including the headquarters security troops, agency staff, and the wounded, had dropped sharply.??Less than five hundred people.  The troops trapped in the mountainous area were in dire need of all kinds of supplies. Not only were there no winter clothes and medicines, they were also short of food and ammunition.

    And not only did each detachment suffer heavy losses under the crazy attacks of the Japanese and puppet troops, but even the headquarters of the Third Route Army and the North Manchuria Provincial Committee operating in the Dedu Mountains were encircled by the Japanese and puppet troops several times.  Xu Hengzhi, chief of staff of the Third Route Army Headquarters, and Zhang Zhongfu, secretary-general of the headquarters, were killed during a breakout at the rear headquarters of Chaoyang Mountain in Germany.

    After being captured and escorted to Qiqihar, Longjiang Working Committee Secretary Zhang Wenlian and more than a dozen members of the North Manchurian Provincial Committee were forced into an ice cave dug by the Japanese army into the frozen Nenjiang River and sacrificed their lives because they refused to surrender.

    After receiving a telegram from the North Manchuria Provincial Party Committee requesting assistance, Yang Zhen mobilized six reconnaissance companies from the three original field brigades to form a reconnaissance battalion when the military reconnaissance battalion was conducting parachute training in Jiangbei and could not be transferred back immediately.  detachment.  Led by Han Renhe, the security staff officer at the headquarters, and with the cooperation of a company of the First Route Army, they rushed to Bei'an to join the Third Route Army carrying a large amount of winter clothing, ammunition, and food.

    After several encounters with the Japanese and puppet troops who entered the mountains to suppress them, and after paying a heavy price, they finally found the headquarters of the Third Route Army in the northern mountainous area of ??Bei'an, where they had retreated to hide for rest and recuperation.  At this time, nearly half of the troops trapped in the northern mountainous area of ????Bei'an had been frostbitten and had been without food for two days.

    However, what surprised Yang Zhen was that although the situation was already difficult, the leaders of the Third Route Army refused to withdraw westward for rest and recuperation.  After replenishing winter clothing, ammunition and food, they headed northwest into the Ilehuri Mountains in the north of the Nenjiang River.

    When Han Renhe returned, he only brought back the wounded handed over by the Third Route Army, some non-combatants from the North Manchuria Provincial Party Committee, and all female soldiers.  In addition to bringing back these personnel, Han Renhe, who returned, handed Yang Zhen a personal letter from the Commander-in-Chief of the Third Route Army.

    In addition to expressing his gratitude to Yang Zhen for his support and entrusting him to take care of the wounded who had evacuated to the base area, the commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army in Xinshang also explained to Yang Zhen the reason why he could not withdraw westward at the moment.

    The commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army told Yang Zhen in a letter that if he also withdraws westward, the Japanese and puppet troops west of the Lesser Khingan Mountains will completely lose their containment power.  In future battles, these Japanese and puppet troops will pose a considerable threat to the flanks of the entire Jidong Military Region.  Although the Third Route Army is currently in trouble, judging from the overall battle situation, it is better not to withdraw westward for the time being.

    Originally, according to the plan, the three anti-alliance armies were at odds with each other, cooperating with each other and supporting each other in operations.  Now that the main force of the First Army has withdrawn to the base area to rest and recuperate, it can be said that Southern Manchuria has lost its containment power.  Although he can get some breathing space by withdrawing to the west, the Japanese and puppet forces in the entire Northeast will be suppressed by the Jidong Military Region.  This is extremely detrimental to the Jidong Military Region.

    Although the Kwantung Army has now stopped its offensive towards the Xiangjiang area, this peaceful situation will not last long.  Once the Japanese and puppet troops launch another offensive in the Xiangjiang area, the Third Route Army will stay in the Lingxi area to contain part of the strength of the Japanese and puppet troops and relieve the pressure on the side of the Jidong Military Region.

    But in Yang Zhen¡¯s opinion, these words were just an excuse for not wanting to evacuate to the base area.  In Yang Zhen's view, how much effect can the Third Route Army have with less than 400 troops and less than one battalion?  Just how much cooperation can I give myself by staying in Lingxi.

    The commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army obviously had some small thoughts. He was not willing to be subordinate to others and was not at ease with himself. He did not want to face Zhao Shangzhi, the current deputy commander of the military region.  Yang Zhen was very disgusted with his calculating and betting character.  When fighting together, I can't count on him.

    But for the commander-in-chief¡¯s sake, Yang Zhen didn¡¯t say much about the Third Route Army¡¯s disgrace.  I just told the commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army in the call back that the radio station must be kept open.  When necessary, the Jidong Military Region can airdrop some supplies to the Third Route Army.  In addition, the Jidong Military Region will conduct full training for the troops entering the base area.  At the appropriate time, the Third Route Army structure will be returned.
