In 1941, the Sino-Japanese War entered a stalemate stage. The Chinese and Japanese armies fought on the battlefield for four years, and there were dozens of battles, large and small.
In North China, which is behind the enemy lines, the situation is extremely serious. Although the Japanese army only occupied the towns along the railway line and seemed to have the upper hand strategically, the effective strength of the Chinese army was not destroyed. Only most of the two provinces of Hebei and Shanxi were still under the control of the Chinese army. Yan Xishan's Jinsui Army and the Eighth Route Army each opened up their own base areas. This made Generalissimo Jiang, who is based in Chongqing, very pleased. He believed that his strategic concept of exchanging space for time had been verified to some extent. No matter how big Shekou is, it cannot swallow an elephant.
Generalissimo Jiang soon lost his optimism. After the One Hundred Regiment War of the North China Eighth Route Army in 1940, Chairman Jiang suddenly discovered that the Eighth Route Army had become 400,000 people without paying attention in the past two years, and the regular army alone had mobilized 105 regiments. The Chairman only remembered that the Eighth Route Army was only a unit with three divisions and six brigades consisting of tens of thousands of troops in the National Government Military Commission's troop establishment form. Mother Hippie, who gave them the power to expand? Once the chairman is not happy, the problem becomes a bit complicated.
As a result, internal frictions broke out in the Chinese army. The Shanxi warlord Yan Xishan's old army and new army fought together. The Eighth Route Army of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region and the Kuomintang Army's Zhu Huaibing Division fought inextricably in the Taihang Mountains, which made the Japanese army look like a joke.
By 1941, the frictional war within the Chinese army had calmed down, and it was the turn of the Japanese army to have a hard time. The North China region, which was the strategic rear of the Japanese army, seemed to be in chaos. The Eighth Route Army, which had already left the frontal battlefield, no longer planned to organize one or two Instead of a regular battle, it disintegrated into pieces and disappeared into the vast plains and continuous mountains. The Japanese army, which advocated decisive battles with the main force, lost its opponents and was always surrounded by opponents. The power is gradually revealed. The Japanese North China Dispatch Army could not withstand the exhaustion of the long-term war, and started a five-year sweep with all its forces.
Li Yunlong's independent regiment also dispersed its operations with a company. During this period of time, he was not very happy, because there was no decent battle to fight, either a gun tower was pulled up on the east side, or a few pieces of railroad tracks were pulled up on the west side. How could this be the main force?
It's no different than a guerrilla. Li Yunlong is good at wine. When it comes to drinking capacity, even he himself can't understand how much it is, anyway, it has something to do with his mood. When you are in a bad mood, you will get drunk in twos and threes. When you are in a good mood, you can still make a lot of fun with the ghost knife after drinking a catty.
Political commissar Zhao Gang didn't drink alcohol at first, but he couldn't stand Li Yunlong's entanglement, so he was also dragged into the water. Li Yunlong's words are too absolute: "People who don't drink are unreliable. Also, intellectuals want to combine with the workers and peasants. How can they combine?"
Li Yunlong really couldn't think of anything else besides wine. Zhao Gang figured that it would be better to drink it together rather than argue with him about these fallacies, and it was not a matter of principle. After going back and forth, Zhao Gang actually managed to drink a little.
Li Yunlong still has a habit of always finding someone to vent out when he is in a bad mood. The staff officers and orderly staff of the regiment headquarters all knew that he had this problem, and they ran away from him when they saw something wrong. Only Zhao Gang was ignorant and always dangled in front of Li Yunlong's eyes. Therefore, every time the head of the regiment is the first to attack, the political commissar is not forgiving, and they quarrel after a few words, and feel that the influence is not good, so the two of them kick out all the irrelevant people around them. Go, open the door and curse at each other bloody. After cursing, Li Yunlong took out the wine and persuaded Zhao Gang to have a drink together.
The two drank to the third tour and forgot what they had scolded just now. They were so emotional after drinking that they blushed again and called each other brothers with tears in their eyes.
Zhao Gang always said to Li Yunlong bitterly: "I used to have a clean mouth, but since I became your partner, now I have learned to swear all over my mouth and curse my mother as soon as I open my mouth. I feel embarrassed when I think about it. What is this called a mother? Combination? I didn’t learn the good things, but I learned to swear and drink.”
Li Yunlong said cheerfully: "That's right, can you be a good soldier if you don't know how to swear at others? I'm not happy, I'm always suffocating, what should I do? In a word: Fuck it...the anger will go out , what do you educated people say?"
Zhao Gang said, "It's heart-wrenching."
"Yes, that's what it means. If you can't make up your mind about something, and you're in a dilemma for a long time, what should you do? One sentence: Damn it, let's do it like this. The resolution is made. Can you command the troops with your sour words? ?You ordered the first battalion to take down the hill, and said: "First battalion commander, please organize troops to attack that hill. If you can't take it down, I will punish you." Such soft words will affect the combat effectiveness of the troops. You have to say this: "First Battalion, take that mountain down for me, grandma, if you can't take it down, I'll chop off your asshole." Listen, this is so encouraging. When the troops heard this, they immediately wailed. Brother, brother, no matter what Eat two years more salt than you, listen to me, if you want to command troops, you have to learn to swear."
Recently, Zhao Gang felt a little worried. In the past, when large troops moved, they were supervised by division commanders and brigade commanders. Li Yunlong didn't dare to go too far. It's all right now, the troops of the 129th Division alone are divided into many places. There are troops everywhere in Hebei, Shanxi, and Shaanxi. Just do whatever you want, no one pees anymore. Zhao Gang thought, sooner or later this rebellious guy will cause some big trouble.
The second platoon leader of the first company, Wei Dayong, was a veteran who joined the army in 1938. He was from Dengfeng, Henan. He had been a monk in Shaolin Temple and had practiced martial arts well. He has a brave and aggressive personality, and because he repeatedly fought outside the temple and violated the temple rules, he was kicked out of the temple by the presiding monk. One of his elder brothers was a company commander in the Kuomintang army, so he had nowhere to go so he planned to find his elder brother to serve as a soldier, so as to make a living. As a result, we met Li Yunlong's independent regiment, and the Eighth Route Army in 1938 still wore the blue sky and white sun cap badge. Wei Dayong thought it was the regular national army and stayed. In 1939, the Independence Regiment ambushed the Japanese Oda Squadron in Qingfengdian, North Hebei, and the two sides fought with bayonets. Wei Dayong was surrounded by five devils. Seeing that he was in danger, his comrades tried their best to move closer to him. Wei Dayong kept his expression on and yelled: "No one will help me, what's the point of grabbing credit with me?"
The comrades witnessed a high-level assassination performance. The master's stabbing is really wonderful, there is almost no redundant movement, and the knife is bloody. A ghost stabbed at his right rib. He neither dodged nor blocked, his body was as steady as Mount Tai, and when the bayonet was about to penetrate his right rib, his right rib shrank into a piece, and the bayonet grazed the flesh. After being pierced through with the bayonet he was waiting for work, his next move was even more amazing. He flew up and pulled out the bayonet. The pierced devil flew a foot away, and a devil behind him was caught by the butt of his gun. Crush the head, draw the bayonet and crush the opponent's head in one motion. And within two minutes, five devils who had received strict assassination training fell under his bayonet. After the battle, Wei Dayong was exceptionally promoted to platoon leader. He had just turned 18 that year. Monk Wei's name was well-known in the independent group.
After the troops were divided, Li Yunlong said to the monk: "Don't be your platoon leader, but be my bodyguard." The head of the regiment thinks highly of me and shows me face, so I can't help it." These two bold guys got together, which made Zhao Gang terrified, not knowing what trouble they would cause.
One day in October, two customers were sitting in the second floor of the Xianghe Teahouse on Zhongxin Street, Heyuan County, North Shanxi. The tea customer was leaning against the window and facing the stairs. The tea foam in the cup, the eyes of another younger tea drinker seemed to be looking at the street scene casually.
The Japanese gendarmes passing by on the street downstairs would not have imagined that sitting in the teahouse were Chu Yunfei, colonel and head of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Troop in the Second Theater of the Kuomintang Army, and his guard company commander, Captain Sun Ming. Colonel Chu Yunfei graduated from the fifth phase of the Whampoa Military Academy. He was one of the few Jin army officers who were born in Whampoa under General Yan Xishan, the commander of the World War II zone, and he was highly regarded by the commander. This man is courageous and skilled with marksmanship. He is a typical professional soldier. Chu Yunfei's troops occupied a large area in the Hengshan area, adjacent to Li Yunlong's guerrilla zone. Over time, both Chu and Li became well-known in Northwest Shanxi. The common people in China have always admired heroes and knights since ancient times, so some folk oral literature described the two of them as knights who could fly through walls and shoot through Yang with both hands.
Chu Yunfei and Li Yunlong had dealt with each other before. During the Battle of Xinkou, the two fought together, but they didn't know each other deeply.
Colonel Chu Yunfei held the same opinion as Chairman Jiang. He had some prejudices against the Eighth Route Army. He believed that the Eighth Route Army disobeyed the order of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government and left the frontal battlefield without authorization.
He has heard a lot of legends about Li Yunlong, and he always feels that they are fabricated. A mud-legged person who has never entered a military academy, even if he has experienced hundreds of battles, is just a warrior. He does not believe that Li Yunlong has any mistakes in tactics. where people are.
A few days ago, Chu Yunfei brought a letter to Li Yunlong, saying that he wanted to meet and chat. The choice of dating location was extremely challenging. Heyuan County is only tens of kilometers away from Datong. It is a county town heavily defended by the Japanese army. Meeting in the teahouse on Zhongxin Street is a great test of the courage of both parties.
Hearing footsteps on the stairs, Li Yunlong took the monk upstairs. The two of them were very well dressed, with the same color Hangfang silk gowns, top hats on their heads, dry layered soles, dress cloth shoes, and snow-white cotton socks. Their waists were bulging. It's a 20-ring shell-barrelling gun. Chu Yunfei thought to himself, this person is really courageous, he dared to dress up as a Japanese puppet plainclothes team, brazenly barge into the old den of the Japanese with a gun in his waist tomorrow to attend the appointment, think about it for the timid They all coughed.
Chu Yunfei clasped his fists in both hands: "Brother Yunlong, are you safe here?" Li Yunlong clasped his fists in return: "Boss Chu, Gong Xi Fa Cai!" Chu Yunfei said: "Replace wine with tea, Brother Yunlong drank this cup first..."
Li Yunlong smiled: "Thanks to Boss Chu's great love, brother, I dare not follow orders. This freshly brewed tea can scald brother's throat." But for some reason, Brother Yunlong disappeared after the war, and I don’t know much about it, has Brother Yunlong been transferred from the battle order of the Second Theater?"
"With Brother Yunlong's courage, he won't leave the battlefield without permission, right?" Li Yunlong said haha: "Boss Chu, don't make fun of your brother. As the saying goes, people should die when comparing people, and they should be thrown away when comparing goods. Boss Chu belongs to the chairman of the committee." A student, a student of Chief Yan."
"Everywhere is light. A regiment of more than 5,000 people can replenish as much as it loses, and has enough guns, ammunition and food. Some people say that the Central Army is raised by the aunt, the Jinsui Army is raised by the younger mother, and the Eighth Route Army is raised by the stepmother. Yes. Boss Chu is doted on by the aunt and the younger mother. Brothers and I can’t compare. At first, the stepmother gave me food. Although the guns and ammunition are a little less, there are still some. Although the stepmother is not close, she can be regarded as a mother. Later, even the stepmother didn't recognize us, and we became motherless children, so we had to go out to beg for food. Boss Chu has face, and took time to talk to our mother, don't worry about the stepmother, they are all mother's children, you eat meat We are not greedy, but brother, can I have some soup?" Chu Yunfei was at a loss for words for a while, thinking that this is the truth, and the chairman of the committee is stuck in the neck of the Eighth Route Army in terms of supply.
"Brother Yunlong, in the face of a national crisis, you and I are soldiers, and we should serve the country on the battlefield. Chu does not want to intervene in factional disputes, but only wishes for the independence and freedom of the nation. As long as Brother Yunlong fights devils, he is Chu's friend. The above I can't control the matter, but brother Yunlong, if you have any difficulties, just ask, and I will take care of the guns, ammunition and food." Chu Yunfei said sincerely.
Li Yunlong stopped laughing. He clasped his fists and said, "Brother Chu is so kind, and my brother has a heart. The Eighth Route Army can survive without government aid. Asking for heaven and land is better than asking for yourself. If I don't have guns, ammunition, and food, I will grab it from the devils. What do devils have?" I have what I want." Chu Yunfei gave a thumbs up: "A man stands upright, and Chu admires it. Brother Yunlong, I heard that the cooks of 'Juxianlou' are good at cooking. Chu prepares some water and wine. Brother, please appreciate it." Li Yunlong laughed Said: "Brother Chu is borrowing flowers to present Buddha. I heard that today is the birthday of the captain of the Japanese Gendarmerie Hirata Ichiro, and he has booked the 'Juxianlou'. Could it be that Brother Chu is reluctant to pay for the treat?" , Brother Yunlong's information is very accurate. Each other, each other, respect is better than obedience, can you not eat the meat that is on your lips?" Li Yunlong stood up.
Captain Hirata Ichiro of the Japanese Gendarmerie is a relatively hospitable person. For today's birthday, he booked Juxianlou two days in advance. The famous celebrities in the city, Japanese military officers, and Imperial Association Army officers all received invitations.
There is a table at the gate of the restaurant. Since the guests came to celebrate their birthdays, they did not come empty-handed. The table was already filled with presents. A person in charge wrote the giver's name on a piece of red paper with a brush.
Chu Yunfei and Sun Ming also bought some gifts and left their names according to the rules. The two sat down at a table near the corner in a discreet manner. Seeing them sitting down, they all nodded as a greeting.
Li Yunlong originally wanted to buy some gifts to fool him, but he suddenly found that he didn't have any money except a few border tickets. He discussed it with the monk, and they both said, "Fuck it, I'm giving him a bad face by eating his food. What gift should I bring?" The two entered the gate, and the manager greeted them and prepared to receive gifts. Seeing that the two were empty-handed, he was a little unhappy. With the cannons in the box, they decided that they belonged to the plainclothes team, and planned to sue Hirata Ichiro in a while.
The table was full of cold meat appetizers, and the hot dishes hadn't been served yet. Hirata Ichiro stood up and asked for some greetings. He didn't speak any Chinese, so he could only translate it into Chinese through a translator. The general meaning was "Welcome, China-Japan goodwill" and other polite words. Everyone craned their necks to listen. Waiting for him to finish talking before eating. But Hirata Ichiro stopped talking very quickly, his eyes fixed on the two people sitting at the table in the corner, why have these two people devoured it? And it's extremely ugly. The mouth is still making a smacking sound. Not at all educated.
Li Yunlong usually likes to eat fried peanuts. He is picking up peanuts with chopsticks and putting them into his mouth quickly one by one. It just so happens that the monk also likes to eat this kind of food, so he also stretched out his chopsticks Li Yunlong moved the plate in front of him very selfishly so that he could eat more conveniently. When the monk saw that the peanuts were almost gone, he was a little unhappy. He reached out and snatched the plate back, and simply poured it into his mouth. Li Yunlong was a little slower to grab the peanuts, and all the peanuts went into the monk's stomach.
Li Yunlong couldn't help but teach him a few words: "Look at your food, this is a banquet, everyone is decent, you are not afraid of shame?" The monk was not convinced, and said: "Your food is better than mine. Not going anywhere." Then he broke off the thigh of a roast chicken and began to chew it. Afraid that the monk would eat that thigh again, Li Yunlong hurriedly stood up and broke off the other thigh, muttering: "Fuck! Why do you just care about yourself?" The monk ate very fast. The chicken legs turned into bones and spit out in the blink of an eye. While chewing quickly, he walked to the adjacent table as if no one was there, stretched out his hand and tore off two chicken thighs, then picked up a plate of fried peanuts and turned to leave. At this moment, the room became silent. Quietly, all the Japanese military officers and the puppet army officers were baffled. Such greedy and ill-educated people are really rare.
A young Japanese second lieutenant got a little angry. He glared at the monk, and squeezed out a sentence viciously through his teeth: "Baga!" Rural children, who have not received much polite education, are brave and aggressive since childhood. Fighting can only take advantage but not disadvantage. Usually, there is no wind and you want to make waves. What's more, someone scolds him, so the monk opened his mouth and scolded back: "Fuck you, Who are you scolding?" Among the Japanese soldiers present, none of them knew Chinese, and they were at a loss for the monk's rude reply, and the officers of the puppet army present were stunned and couldn't react for a while.
Li Yunlong said with a smirk on his face: " , it's not right to swear at others. Look, how ugly it is. He opened his mouth and said he was fucking his mother. It's not right for him to swear. He lacks discipline. Then You can't learn from him." At this time, Chu Yunfei and Sun Ming, who were sitting at the table in the corner, couldn't help laughing, and they couldn't help laughing. Opened up.
Hirata Ichiro couldn't bear it any longer. He walked to Li Yunlong's desk and muttered to the translator for a while. The translator said, "Taijun asked which part you belong to? What's your name? Who invited you?" Li Yunlong had already After eating, he lifted a corner of the tablecloth to wipe his mouth. He said nonchalantly, "Oh, you are Ichiro Hirata, right? Where is your 50,000 oceans? I am Li Yunlong from the Eighth Route Army, and the one sitting over there is 358 from the Jinsui Army." Head of the regiment, Chu Yunfei, our two heads should be worth one hundred thousand oceans, right?" Chu Yunfei kicked over the table, and Sun Ming pulled out their guns, and shouted:
"Chu Yunfei is here, don't move anyone, Hirata Ichiro, where is my 50,000 oceans?" Although Hirata Ichiro couldn't understand Chinese, he knew that the visitor was not kind. With a movement of his right hand, he had already grabbed the handle of the pistol at his waist , which responds surprisingly quickly. There was a muffled bang, and the monk hit Ichiro Hirata on the chest with his palm, and Ichiro Hirata flew out flat. The monk's iron sand palm killed Hirata Ichiro in an instant, his breastbone and ribs were smashed, and the blood from his mouth spurted more than a foot high.
Li Yunlong smiled and said to Chu Yunfei: "Brother Chu, do you want to be captured? Brother, I will give you a favor. How about I hand over this house of devils and traitors to you to ask for credit?" Chu Yunfei replied: "Thank you, Brother Yunlong , I can’t stand this kind of favor, what’s the use of Chu wanting these turtle bastards?” After the words fell, the pistol in his hand rang again and again, and Li Yunlong and He He who were standing in the other corner of the roomShang also opened fire, and the cross-firing power of four lapel guns swept down all the devils and traitors like an iron broom.
The Japanese suffered a lot this time. Almost all the officers of the Japanese army and the puppet army guarding the county were killed in this attack. The army without officers was a mass of scattered sand. I don't know what happened. Li Yunlong, Chu Yunfei and the other four defeated the puppet army without any trouble and left the city smoothly.
When we parted, Chu Yunfei took out a delicate Browning pistol and gave it to Li Yunlong: "Brother Yunlong, let's keep it as a souvenir, we will meet again later." Li Yunlong put away the pistol and said: "You and I are brothers, I hope we will not be together in the future." We will meet on the battlefield." Chu Yunfei said: "Everyone is their own master, there is really nothing we can do at that time, please take care..." Li Yunlong took the monk to the county town to attend the appointment, and he did not greet anyone when he left. The head of the group disappeared for a day, Zhao Gang was anxious and angry, thinking that being a partner with this stunned young head was bad luck for eight lifetimes, and there was never a day when he was not afraid.
Li Yunlong didn't come back until dark. He was in a good mood today. Not only did he eat and drink enough, but he also had a good time. He called the devils and traitors with a pistol. There is nothing more joyful than this in the world. As soon as he entered the door, he found that Zhao Gang was ignoring him with a black face. He knew that it was Zhao Gang who should make trouble this time, so he tried his best to quarrel with him. He didn't care much, he was dumbfounded by the stupid reading, and he loved to admit death. When he is in a good mood, he is not as knowledgeable as a scholar. Li Yunlong asked for something to say: "Old Zhao, why haven't you slept yet?" Zhao Gang said with a stern face: "Nonsense, what time do you go to bed, besides, the leader is missing, do I dare to sleep?" Li Yunlong said: "Huh? This little monk didn't tell you? Damn, this kid is getting more and more shameless. Before I came out, I asked the monk to say hello to you. This little guy must have forgotten. Criticize him harshly, dare to forget what you have confessed, this is too disrespectful to our political commissar..." Zhao Gang interrupted him rudely: "Stop talking, where have you been?" Li Yunlong accompanied He said with a smile: "I've been staying in this ghost place for so long that my muscles and bones are weak. I went out to exercise my muscles and bones, and I wandered to the county town without paying attention. We country people have never been in the city, and once we enter, we can't tell the difference between the south, the east, and the north. We don’t have a watch, and we don’t know the time. No, we just came back. You can’t blame me. If you want to criticize, you can only criticize you. Who told you to be so stingy and don’t lend me your watch.” Li Yunlong beat him up. I was thinking about Zhao Gang's Roman watch, and asked several times to borrow Dai Dai, but Zhao Gang said, go, go, and give it to you when you meet. In this regard, Li Yunlong has been brooding.
Zhao Gang was annoyed: "You are such a scoundrel, you beat me up before I said anything about you. Forget it, I won't say anything about you anymore. As the saying goes, saying the same thing three times is as light as water. I said the same thing more than three times. I’ve done it over and over again, I feel poor, I’ll say it again for the last time, the commander agrees, you should be with your troops at any time, and you shouldn’t act alone, this is called disorganization and discipline...” Li Yunlong took out the Roast chicken missing two thighs. When he shot, he didn't forget to put the roast chicken in his arms. At this moment, he hurriedly used the roast chicken to cover Zhao Gang's mouth: "Stop talking, I can recite the following words, brother, look how much I miss you, I will give you half of the roast chicken!" Well. Zhao Gang was still angry, and pulled with his hand: "Don't do this, you want to gag me with this thing? I still want to say... "
Li Yunlong was a little annoyed: "Got it, I'll go out again later, and I'll go to the division headquarters to find the teacher to ask for leave, okay? Fuck! Kindness is like a donkey's liver and lungs. If you like it, I won't give it to you." Alright." He turned and walked away.
"Stop, put the roast chicken down, I've been worried all day, you should give me some spiritual compensation." Zhao Gang also cursed rudely.
Li Yunlong turned back with a smile on his face: "That's right, come on, come on, let's have a good drink." He turned his head and shouted outside the house: Monk, take out the wine you carried, I saw you stole two Take out the bottle of Fenjiu!"
"Why do you still want to eat alone? You flower monk."
A few days later, information came from inside: Li Yunlong, head of the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, and Chu Yunfei, head of the 358th Regiment of the Kuomintang Army, jointly made a disturbance in the county. , All were killed, none survived. Jun Tada, the commander of Japan's dispatched army in North China, was deeply shocked, and announced the new reward prices at the same time, Li Yunlong's head, Dayang 100,000 yuan, Chu Yunfei's head, Dayang 100,000 yuan, informer, Dayang Five ten thousand yuan. Zhao Gang was also stunned.
Supplement: The December Incident in Shanxi occurred in December 1939. Yan Xishan announced that the second column of the new army had mutinied and began to purge the Communists and pro-communists in the new army. The Communist Party responded tit-for-tat and sent troops from the 120th Division to support it. The new army led by the Communist Party broke away from Yan Xishan's control and merged into the Eighth Route Army. Yan Xishan's strength was greatly damaged, and his influence was driven out of Northwest Shanxi. He had no choice but to negotiate peace with the Communist Party at the end of the year. Mao Zedong's famous statement of "I will not be attacked if I am not attacked; if attacked by me, I will be attacked" was put forward in this incident.
The friction between Hebei and Shanxi occurred from the end of 1939 to April 1940. Large-scale friction occurred between the main force of the 129th Division and successively Lu Zhonglin, Shi Yousan, Zhu Huaibing and other Kuomintang troops. The 129th Division held the Ci, Wu, Lin, and She battles, defeated them successively, and wiped out more than 20,000 of them.
After the above frictions, the Kuomintang army in North China has basically lost its influence. North China was completely contested by the Communist Party and the Japanese army.
These events all took place before the Hundred Regiments War, and the author's narration is wrong in chronological order.
In addition, general historians believe that the stalemate stage of the Anti-Japanese War began at the end of 1938, after the Japanese army occupied Wuhan.
The May 1st raid took place in May 1942. On May 1, with more than 50,000 people, the Japanese army began to carry out repeated raids in Jizhong, and implemented the barbaric Sanguang policy. The Eighth Route Army in Jizhong carried out the most arduous and brutal anti-mopping campaign in the war of resistance, but in the end the main force had to withdraw due to the large gap in strength. Jizhong was divided by more than 1,600 enemy strongholds, and the base area became a guerrilla zone. Break through the theory of base areas. After an arduous struggle, it was not until 1944 that it returned to the level before the May 1st sweep.
