Chapter 135: Threatening Gang Village Ningji

On the first day of June 1939, when everyone was paying attention to the war in Peking, an electric wave in the early morning caused the entire Chinese mainland to boil. The North China militia column, which had always been armed with the protection of the country and the people, issued electricity to the whole world in the morning, and the city of Peking, which was occupied by the Japanese devils, was recovered. For a moment, the Chinese people who heard the news all rushed to the streets cheerfully and shouted the slogan "Long live the militia column" and walked through the streets and alleys.

After receiving the receipt of Peking for only one day and one night, all political armed forces who were concerned about this war exclaimed, "Impossible!". This is an important city in Peking. How could the Japanese army have heavy defenses even block the siege of the militia column in one day?

However, with all kinds of secret telegrams sent from the city of Peking, everyone knew that Peiping had returned to the hands of the North China Militia Column. After confirming the news, the People's Party was the first to send a public congratulatory message to the North China Militia Column, congratulating the North China Militia Column on its great victory that attracted worldwide attention. At the same time, it called on the people of the whole country to resolutely resist Japan and realize the great rejuvenation of China as soon as possible.

Shortly after the People's Party's public congratulatory message was issued, Chairman Jiang, who was in charge of Shancheng's capital, was discussing what to do with this North China militia column. Not to mention that the Kuomintang now has to defend against Japanese devils, and the North China militia column has become the "family members" in the minds of many Chinese people. It is unlikely that they will be incorporated, but fortunately, the North China militia column is more neutral.

This made Chairman Jiang finally grit his teeth and then issued a public congratulatory message. While congratulating the North China Militia Column on its great victory, he gave Deng Chenggong, the "disobedient" major general commander, a blue sky and white sun medal, and at the same time promoted Deng Chenggong's military rank to the national general. Of course, some oceans were also indispensable to give him encouragement.

In short, the mainland of China, which suffered from the war, sent out many congratulatory messages on the first day of June. However, compared to the cheering Chinese people, they were stunned when they received the fallen Gangcun Ningji in the city of Peking. Because he never thought that the North China militia column's siege ability was so great.

What made him even more frightened was that he learned that the army taken away by the commander had won a huge victory in recapturing Peiping. The column base, which was suppressed by the Japanese army for more than two months, suddenly launched a large-scale counterattack. Hu Guangzong, the deputy commander of the column, gathered a unit of the artillery division retained by Deng Chengcheng, as well as several brigade-level militia troops in the southern base area, and launched a counterattack against the Japanese division defense zone transferred from the Gunci Ningci's defense zone to the city reserve defenders with relatively low attack capabilities.

The encirclement that was originally pulled up by the Japanese finally opened up suddenly. When Neji Gangmura, who learned that the rear was about to be blocked, ordered the two Japanese main divisions on the front line to shrink their troops and approach the important military cities of Shijiazhuang and Zhangjiakou as soon as possible, while requesting the navy to dispatch planes to bomb Beiping City in the name of the commander of the North China garrison.

But before his complete bombing of Peking City was sent, the staff officer of the confidential room walked in with a telegram and said, "Hisser Commander, we have received a secret telegram from a militia column. Please check it out!"

The North China militia sent a report to themselves? What's going on!

The curious Neji Kamura took the telegram and immediately said furiously: "Baga, how dare these damn Chinese militias threaten us like this? Do you really think that our Imperial Japanese Army is easy to bully?"

Considering that it would take a certain amount of time to relocate the supplies to Peking, Deng Chenggong was worried that the Japanese army would break up and dispatch a large number of planes to bomb Peiping. Therefore, he directly used the radio station arranged by the Japanese in Beijing to send a telegram to the opponent.

The above clearly stated that if the Japanese army dared to dispatch planes to bomb Peiping City, don’t blame the militia column for not following the rules and using the captured Japanese prisoners and Japanese civilians as shields. As long as the Japanese do not dispatch planes to bomb, everyone will set off their stance and discuss the winners and losses on land.

Understanding this telegram is definitely not a joke, and for the somewhat despicable hostage threat method of militia columns, he had to dispel the plan to bomb Peiping, and instead ordered several Japanese troops supporting Peiping to speed up their advancement and try to annihilate the militia columns that captured Peiping near Peiping. At least he believed that the Japanese army would not easily lose to the troops formed by this group of Chinese peasants when fighting positions.

In fact, Gangmeng Yanji dispelled the plan to bomb Peiping. After receiving a telegram from the militia column, the British, American and French consulates in Peking both used harsh words to warn Gangmeng Yanji, the commander of North China.

They were originally on a neutral side in this battle, but the Lieutenant General of the Beiping City Defense Office almost regarded them as enemies. This made the head of the country they belong to be frightened. If Kazumura Yasuji did not give a reasonable explanation, their consular officials would suggest that countries draw a fleet to China to support the battle. See if Japan is really awesome and can collectively fight against these countries.

Knowing that if the bombing of aircraft will cause casualties to these foreign consulate members, the heads of various countries who have finally settled down in China will really have to deal with Japan together. At that time, Japan's international situation will inevitably be very unfavorable.

As Japan increases its military supply to China, their supply of materials still depends on imports to a large extent, and offending these countries will inevitably bring great trouble. In view of this situation, Kamura Yanji did not dare to easily dispatch planes to bomb the Beiping city where members of consulates from various countries remained.

Who knows if the bomb is dropped, will a few unlucky foreigners be killed by then?

He and some Japanese generals knew that all countries were very dissatisfied with the full-scale aggression against China by Japan and wanted to have a reasonable excuse to intervene. If the bombing of a Peking really caused so much trouble, Gangmura Neji, the commander who had just been promoted to general, would be laid off and unemployed!

Neji Gangmura, who knew that there was no way to capture the militia columns in Beiping, focused his main energy on the chaotic front line. The sweeping battle was originally progressing smoothly, as Hu Guangzong found a breakthrough and drove the main force out of the encirclement, some militia column bases that had been occupied soon returned to the hands of the militia columns. Even if he had not seen the situation was wrong, he would have transferred the two Japanese main divisions back to the city for defense in time, and perhaps Hu Guangzong would have led the army to surround him.

However, when Peiping fell, the bases they had originally occupied could not be stabilized, which led to some remote county towns being led by Hu Guangzong to sweep the raids. The garrisons of each county town asked for help were sent one by one, which made the commander Ningji, Gangcun, also had a headache.

This chaotic situation reminded Kazumura Yanji an old Chinese saying, "Steal chickens without losing rice." Now, this situation is undoubtedly the situation in front of him, the new commander. What makes him even more troubled is that the national army and warlord armed forces on the Central Plains battlefield also took advantage of the situation to rob and react in a series of recovery battles.

The Japanese army, which was already in short supply, could not draw many troops to support the battlefield in North China. This means that in order to solve the current difficulties facing him, he could rely on these four Japanese main divisions. However, if he wanted to protect the county towns and transportation lines in North China, the strength of these four main divisions was still a bit difficult.

Only then did he realize how strong this low-key-developing North China militia column was. Faced with his regular army of more than 200,000, the militia column actually had enough troops to launch a counterattack against them. This means that in the early stages of the war, he had far underestimated the militia column's strength. This also led to a situation where one move made a mistake and all the losses were lost.

The helpless Gangcun Ningji could only take back all the troops in some remote and unimportant counties in North China and supplement them into relatively important military cities with strategic locations. He prevented these strategic locations from being swept away by militia columns. As for the fall of those small counties, he could only allow the North China militia column to occupy them for the time being.

In short, Kazumura Yanji has decided that he would never make this mistake if he takes action again for this militia column that likes to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger. As long as he gives him some time to slow down the current situation, he will be confident that he will let go of the "heart thorn" that is staying on his territory!

The counterattack in the south was very smooth. Deng Chenggong, who controlled the situation in Peking, also began to relocate supplies. Military trucks began to replace people and not change cars, and all the materials belonging to the Japanese in the city were transferred out of the city. For those traitorous businessmen and government officials who were supported, Deng Chenggong sent troops out of their houses one by one for public trial. For a time, the people of Peking City became the happiest group and began to help the militia column transfer supplies in groups.

Because these ordinary people have decided that when the North China militia column is transferred, they will not stay in the city of Beiping, and they will still decide to go to the countryside outside the city to take refuge. After all, the living conditions in the countryside in North China are much more comfortable than those in the city. Don’t worry about the oppression of the Japanese, you can also divide the land and land. This kind of good thing is still full of endless temptation for these ordinary people who sell cool labor every day to make a living.

After executing several evil traitors, Deng Chenggong was also very straightforward to collect their property. Even some property deeds that could not be taken away were sold by Deng Chenggong at a very low price to consulates from various countries who were surprised and needed something to make up for their mental losses.

If these traitors and Japanese devils are handed over to Chinese businessmen or ordinary people, they will inevitably be forced to blackmail back after the Japanese arrive. But if they sell them to these foreigners, I believe that with the foreigners' greedy nature, if the Japanese dare to ask them for these things, they will inevitably be scolded. After all, these real estate deeds are documented, and no matter how arrogant the Japanese are, they will not dare to offend these foreigners. This is a good thing for the militia column and these foreigners. How could Deng Chenggong, who also loves money, not do it?
