I really came here to fight against Japan

They looked back at Yunling, where they had lived and fought for three years.

The military chief and the Iron Army commander both had expressions of reluctance on their faces.

Yunling is now shrouded in white terror.

Commander Song, who is disliked by everyone, is leading his Third Militia Division to do all kinds of evil things.

They just kept "burning, burning, burning". All the Iron Army's offices were burned down, and all the Iron Army's family residences were burned down.

All the things related to Tiejun that were found in the villagers' homes were burned cleanly.

Because Song Wenwan's militia division blocked the mountain pass, the Kuomintang troops could not reach Yunling.

They could only watch the thick smoke billowing from the direction of Yunling and the flames rising into the sky.

Even the Minister of Defense, who had been scolded by Song Wenwan, had to say that Song Wenwan was ruthless enough.

As expected of the model unit that encircled and suppressed the Red Army guerrillas in the Jiangxi Soviet Area, they are still as ruthless as ever.

Then he led the several divisions of the National Army back to their original base.

However, after they returned to their base, their situations were different.

The 108th Division of the 25th Army lost more than a thousand people, but they did fight against the Iron Army.

The 40th Division seized a lot of spoils and became the highlight of this operation.

Therefore, the entire 25th Army was commended by the Secretariat.

The 50th Division of the Sichuan Army was in a terrible situation. Not only did the troops suffer heavy casualties, but also the division commander died, becoming a scapegoat for everyone.

After returning to Sichuan, he was able to express his condolences to the landlords and wealthy people from his own faction.

For unknown reasons, the Pao brothers in Sichuan and Chongqing were quite indifferent to them.

Let’s put their affairs aside for now. Commander Song, whose face is covered in black and gray, is currently listening to a report from below.

“Commander, we found the documents they didn’t have time to take away, and we have burned the house along with them according to your orders.

There were also a dozen or so people who were willing to join the National Army and identify the hidden underground party members, and they were taken away and secretly executed.

Only then did Song Wenwan's expression relax. The reason he stayed was to help Tiejun finish the job.

Looking at the old military site still filled with smoke, he shook his head regretfully. What a pity!

Not long after, the photo of him "digging three feet into the ground" in Yunling and shooting "soldiers and civilians" was placed on the table in the attendant's room.

Director Xiong waved his hand and ordered Song Wenwan to leave a regiment to continue the suppression.

The rest of the troops returned to their original base to rest and wait for the government officials to come with supplies to reward and comfort them.

As for Song Wenwan, she had already given a satisfactory answer to the attendant's office.

So Director Xiong spoke on behalf of the old man: "Commander Song has made great contributions and is truly a capable official of the Party and the country.

Commander Song is hereby granted special permission to return to Longshui immediately to prepare for the New Year without having to report back to the capital."

A conspiracy that was personally planned by the envoy of the temporary capital eventually turned into a farce.

They could only watch as the Iron Army moved eastwards, fighting continuously and expanding their forces.

By the time the Iron Army reached Yancheng, they had grown from "more than 9,000 people" to an elite force of "more than 30,000 people".

In addition, there is the Eastward Detachment which has already taken root in the Yancheng area.

The entire military has formed a military group of more than 50,000 people.

This made the attendants in the temporary capital feel as if they had lost more than they gained, and they regretted it deeply.

Along the way, the combat effectiveness of the Army Commander's Guard Division also opened the eyes of the Iron Army's comrades.

Especially at night, the army commander and military leaders continued to be in shock.

Watching the parachutes falling from the sky, carrying various weapons and equipment.

They had a new understanding of this mysterious guard division.

The road of revolution is long, and some military leaders who have settled down are finally preparing to set off and return to red northern Shaanxi to report on their work.

Late one night, they came together to a place where the terrain was flat and the ground was hard.

Looking at the two transport planes with red five-pointed stars falling from the sky.

These leaders suddenly felt that they should really return to northern Shaanxi and study hard.

The revolutionary plan is bright and beautiful, but comrades still need to work hard! Now returning to red northern Shaanxi is another new beginning.

In January of 1941, there suddenly appeared an unusual calm.

The Japanese troops in North China seemed to have lost their temper after being beaten by the Eighth Route Army.

They also hid in the stronghold and refused to come out to raid the base.

The raids launched by the Eighth Route Army in North China were large-scale and yielded a huge harvest of all kinds of supplies.

Their greatest achievement was the active cooperation of the guerrilla division.

This allowed the participating troops to gain rich experience in attacking tough battles.

In particular, the county brigades, district squads, guerrillas and militia teams in those places have gained sufficient practical experience.

Song Wenwan was not idle either. After going back to rest for three days, she began to inspect the bases of various military services.

The most exciting thing is that he keeps wandering around Zhou Weiguo's territory.

Especially the new training ground of the Armored Academy, he even drove his Sherman around it twice.

What does this mean? It means that Zhou Weiguo’s Armored Forces Academy will have to add new equipment.

Zhou Weiguo found Song Wenwan excitedly and almost tortured him, but he didn't get a single word of truth from Song Wenwan.

Song Wenwan: "You are the father of armored forces after all, so stay calm.

If I give you the things now, can you still have a good Spring Festival?"

Hao Dadan didn't understand what Song Wenwan meant, so he quickly came over to ask Song Wenwan.

"Commander, what does the father of armored forces mean?"

Song Wenwan was annoyed and retorted to Hao Dadan.

"The father of the armored forces means the father of all armored forces."

Hao Dadan scratched his head and said, "I've suffered a great loss this time. I'm older than him, so how can he be my father?"

Everyone was amused by Hao Dadan's words and finally suppressed their curiosity.

On February 1st, Cheng Songyuan had returned from the temporary capital after reporting on his work and stayed in Longshui to preside over the work before the festival.

Song Wenwan left on a plane with Political Commissar Mo under the pretext of inspecting the local area.

The two of them went to Hengshan Base overnight to prepare for the military report before the New Year.

The head of the Iron Army has not seen anyone since he returned to northern Shaanxi.

Three days later, he brought his thick self-criticism and made a sincere self-criticism report at the pre-holiday meeting in northern Shaanxi.

This also improved everyone's impression of him, which was usually very stubborn.

For this reason, a group of leaders in northern Shaanxi also had a long talk with him overnight.

A few days later, on the battlefield in North China, the deputy commander-in-chief, who had just finished a raid, also rushed back.

The deputy commander-in-chief did not go into the city, but directly met with the military leaders and went to the Hengshan secret base for a meeting.

The deputy commander-in-chief had a dignified temperament and had been traveling all night.

He was already sleepy, and since the road was long, he simply fell asleep in the car.

The military chief was woken up by his own guard before daybreak.

In the end, he was invited directly to the deputy commander-in-chief's jeep.

The driver said that this is a Land Rover off-road vehicle that looks shabby from the outside but is very comfortable inside.

This off-road vehicle is speeding on the rugged roads in northern Shaanxi.

It really didn't seem that bumpy, and it was much more comfortable than riding a horse.
