Chapter Eight Celebrities in Northwest Shanxi

The battle in Ping'an County made Li Yunlong famous. First, Lieutenant General Youzuka Yoshio of the Japanese Army in Taiyuan lost his temper again. He stared at the surrounding area of Ping'an County in Northwest Shanxi on the military map. The area where the two sides fought was actually thousands of square kilometers. A rough estimate shows that the total troops invested by both sides reached more than 300,000. More than 1,000 defenders in Ping'an County Some Japanese strongholds were empty of troops due to reinforcements, and the local armed forces of the Chinese Army took advantage of the vacancy. All this was caused by the commander of the Eighth Route Army named Li Yunlong. What kind of person is he? How could it have such a huge destructive power? Even the well-equipped and well-trained Yamamoto Special Forces were wiped out, and no one survived. He was just a small regiment leader, how could he mobilize so many troops to join the battle? Even the Chinese government forces were involved. Yoshio Youzuka couldn’t figure it out, his intelligence department had set up a special file for Li Yunlong, but it was only a thin page: Name: Li Yunlong Nationality: Chinese Ethnicity: Han Age: Unknown Hometown: Hubei Province and Henan Province, China Provincial border area - Dabie Mountains. (Hubei? Henan? Unknown) Resume: Participated in the Jute Riot organized by the CCP in 1927, and later transferred to the Red Army of the CCP Workers and Peasants. (Previous positions unknown) It is reported that Li once participated in the strategic retreat of the CCP’s so-called Long March. He is a relatively senior officer in the CCP’s army and has made many military exploits.

(The reason for the meritorious service is unknown) He is currently the head of the Independent Regiment of the 129th Division of the 18th National Revolutionary Army of the Chinese Communist Party, without a military rank. Personality: Rebellious, courageous, resolute, flexible and changeable way of thinking, often adopts reverse thinking, never sticks to formalities in dealing with things, is a typical realist. Poor discipline, good at doing deviant things. Political views: left, but not radical, lack of theory, lack of interest in politics. Education level: low. No military school education. There is also no information on what kind of education he received.

He is proficient in shooting and can skillfully use all kinds of light weapons. He can use a pistol with both hands to achieve the first hit. He has received combat training and knife training. The subject is Chinese martial arts, and the degree is unknown. There is nothing below, there is not even a photo of Zhang Li Yunlong in the file, what does this bastard look like?

Youzuka Yoshio thought, one day I will cut off his head with my own hands, make a specimen of his head and put it on the desk.

Alas, there is only a first-class intelligence system, so why is there only fragmentary information about this Li Yunlong? Yoshio Youzuka felt a dull pain in his chest, and he couldn't vomit out his breath. The explanation of the intelligence department is that this person has never served in the Chinese government army and has no contact with various agencies of the Chinese government. The department only collects the information of the major general or division level and above officers of the enemy country or the imaginary enemy country army. Youzuka Yoshio closed the file angrily, closed his eyes...

The headquarters of the Eighth Route Army did not figure out what was going on until more than ten days after the battle ended. According to investigations, seven or eight main regiments and a large number of local troops were engaged in the battle. The chess pieces on the board, the aid of the aid, the ambush of the ambush, is very busy.

The heads of the headquarters were quite hesitant. It is reasonable to say that Li Yunlong mobilized tens of thousands of troops into battle without asking for instructions. He was unorganized and undisciplined, especially for his wife. The smell of personal enmity, based on this alone, not many people shot him. But judging from the actual effect, this melee caused heavy losses to the Japanese army in Northwest Shanxi, and the troops participating in the war gained a lot, and some small anti-Japanese base areas were inadvertently connected together. Yan Xishan, the commander of the Second Theater Command, also sent a commendation telegram: Congratulations to the various departments of the Eighth Route Army for launching an active offensive in Northwest Shanxi and achieving great results. In the end, the political department of the Eighth Route Army came to balance the merits and demerits: In view of the fact that Comrade Li Yunlong led his troops to attack the county without asking for instructions, causing heavy casualties, he should have been severely punished. The defense of the enemy in the county seat aroused positive responses from various ministries, and caused the enemy to pay a heavy price in the vast combat area. Therefore, Comrade Li Yunlong's serious mistakes were not held accountable, his military exploits were not commended, and his merits and demerits were offset.

It is said that even the Generalissimo Jiang who was in Chongqing was alarmed in those few days. He looked at the map and said to himself: Mother Xipi, what is going on in Northwest Shanxi? What is going on in the World War II zone?

Li Yunlong didn't care much about punishment and meritorious deeds. Anyway, since he joined the Red Army, there have been more than a dozen large and small punishments and military exploits. There have been several promotions and demotions. The first time I was demoted was before the Long March, when all the troops were preparing food and grass. Li Yunlong was the commander of the Fourth Front Army. He was notified and criticized by the whole army, and his position was downgraded by two ranks, from regimental commander to battalion commander. Li Yunlong didn't care much about this. Every time he mentioned this matter, he always said: "I am willing to violate discipline? There is no way, he Tens of thousands of troops passed in front of my mother, and I didn't even have a grain of food left for me. If the Tibetans have food in their hands, even if you kneel down and tell him that grandpa won't sell you, if you annoy me, you will rob his mother Yes, this penalty is worth memorizing. When crossing the grassland, none of my regiment starved to death. The other troops were so hungry that they ate grass roots and boiled leather belts. They all asked me for food, but I refused to give it. I said, this I bought some food in exchange for punishment, oh, I will punish you, and you eat food, it's so fucking unfair."

In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, Li Yunlong became the commander of the regiment again. After less than half a year, in the battle of Xinkou, the independent regiment captured five Japanese prisoners, all of whom were wounded and captured. In the early days of the war, almost all Japanese soldiers were desperadoes, and very few were captured. At that time, if a few prisoners were occasionally captured, it would be considered a great achievement. According to regulations, they should be sent to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army immediately. There was a Japanese soldier who protested . The war alliance, after being educated, captured Japanese soldiers can join the anti-war alliance to launch a political offensive against the Japanese invaders. Li Yunlong's hands were itchy when he saw the Japanese, and he walked around the prisoners several times, fearing the discipline and not daring to do anything, but those Japanese prisoners were ignorant. Lying there kicking and biting and tearing the bandages with his hands, he refused to be carried by the soldiers on the stretcher. Li Yunlong became angry: "Fucking shameless, ask these bastards what they want to do?" He said to the Japanese translator. The interpreter said: "They said, sir, please let us die." Li Yunlong was amused when he heard it: "Okay, I still sound like a man, but it's true, anyway, he is also a five-foot-tall man. He didn't die on the battlefield. Isn't it embarrassing to be a prisoner? I am also worried about how to send you off. You five bastards have to use a squad of soldiers to carry a stretcher. Everyone, testify to me. These devils begged me, not me. If you want to kill them, I'll let them do it for everyone's convenience." He took out his pistol and shot each of the five wounded soldiers in the head. For this matter, he memorized another major demerit punishment, and his position was demoted by one level, becoming the deputy head of the regiment. In Li Yunlong's own words, if there are too many lice, it will not itch, and if there are too many debts, it will not worry. Let it go.
