    No wonder Li Guoyao would sigh like this. During this period, there were almost no major wars in North China. The only movement was that the Japanese army continued to raid the Eighth Route Army's defense areas, but the scale was very small, basically at the brigade level.

    Regarding the national army, the Japanese army was very "restrained" and ignored Li Guoyao's troops and the Hebei-Cha war zone on the southern front.

    Under such circumstances, the two parties got along peacefully for nearly four months.

    During these four months, Li Guoyao's command completed the important task of eliminating the bad and retaining the good, and a large number of unqualified soldiers were eliminated from the front-line troops.

    Although the strength of the front-line field troops has been greatly reduced, their combat effectiveness has not decreased but increased. At the same time, a large number of second-line garrison troops have been added. The entire army has completed the upgrade from tactical troops to strategic groups, which is not suitable for future counterattacks in the Northeast.  Significant.

    According to Li Guoyao's prediction, if the "tacit understanding" between the two sides not to attack each other can be maintained for another month, the troops will be able to complete the layout of grain production in the base area.

    Unlike the south where there are two crops a year and three crops a year, the Shanxi-Suicha area can only have one crop a year due to its high latitude, and the conditions for grain production are not very good.

    And due to light and heat, food planting here usually starts in mid-May!

    Since grain production is related to the overall situation, and Li Guoyao also knew that this year's North China would be an unprecedented disaster year, it was necessary to prepare the army's rations in advance for the second half of the year.

    So at the end of April, Li Guoyao issued guidance on spring farming and grain planting to all political officials in the entire base area. The principle is that the base area will only promote the planting of two crops this year, one is potatoes and the other is corn.

    As for other crops such as wheat, oats, rice, millet, etc., it is not recommended to plant them, and the planting of flax and rapeseed is strictly prohibited.

    The reason is also very simple, because Li Guoyao knows that there will be constant natural disasters this year. Except for potatoes and corn that are cold-resistant and drought-resistant, it is basically impossible to harvest any other crops. It would be good to recover the seeds.

    ¡°However, Li Guoyao also knew that what he could do was give suggestions to the people, but he could not force them to plant only what crops. That would cause serious dissatisfaction among the people who did not know the truth, and even lead to more serious consequences.

    Although he could not forcefully order the people, Li Guoyao issued a mandatory order to plant corn and potatoes on all the 300,000 acres of land reclaimed by the army.

    But before he could finish the matter here, the little devils launched a large-scale operation in the Zhejiang-Jiangxi region, and then the Hebei-Chacha War Zone asked Li Guoyao to hold a meeting at the war zone headquarters.

    Li Guoyao, who knew the general process of the Zhejiang-Jiangxi battle, immediately understood that the third theater must not be able to hold on, so he thought of them and planned to let the northern troops build momentum so that the Japanese army would have some scruples.

    It goes without saying that the purpose of this meeting must be to have all units attack the Japanese army and break this strange "tacit understanding" between the two sides.

    Once this tacit understanding is broken, it can be expected that the anger that the two sides have accumulated for three or four months will be completely vented through the guns in their hands. It is impossible to stop without beating the other party half to death.

    However, Li Guoyao was not interested in going south for the meeting. Firstly, because he was now in Chanan, which was more than 400 kilometers away from Jinan. He had to pass through a large number of Japanese blockades and railway lines along the way.  , too unsafe.

    Secondly, Li Guoyao knew that the Hebei-Cha War Zone must have received instructions from the top this time, and would launch a large-scale counterattack in southern Hebei. As the absolute main force in the Hebei-Cha War Zone, the Jiujiu Army was again attacked this time.  I remembered.

    The most important thing is that Li Guoyao looks down upon the current commander of the Jicha War Zone and has no interest in meeting that guy!

    Last year in the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, the national army suffered a disastrous defeat. People across the country were furious. The National Government had no choice but to push Wei Lihuang, the commander-in-chief of the First Theater Zone, out of the tank.

    Although everyone in the first theater knew that this matter had little to do with Wei Lihuang, after all, Wei Lihuang was under house arrest in Mount Emei before the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain started, and the Zhongtiao Mountain area had the strongest combat effectiveness and was the most familiar with the terrain.  Sun Weiru's troops were also transferred away from Zhongtiao Mountain, and it was not Wei Lihuang who ultimately commanded the battle, but He Yingqin.

    But there is no other way. He is the commander of the theater. If something goes wrong, he should step in now.

    In the end, Wei Lihuang was dismissed from the position of commander-in-chief of the first theater. How ridiculous is this!

    AndLu Zhonglin was also removed at that time. The reason was that Lu Zhonglin's incompetence in fighting led to the rapid development of the Eighth Route Army in Hebei and Chacha provinces, and its strength almost surpassed that of the national army.

    What Li Guoyao couldn't tolerate the most was that, just to remove Wei Lihuang, Chongqing actually transferred Jiang Dingwen, Chairman of the Shaanxi Provincial Government, Chairman of the Shaanxi Provincial Party Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang, and Shaanxi Provincial Security Commander, to the First War Zone as Commander-in-Chief.  At the same time, he also serves as the commander-in-chief of the Jicha Theater.

    Speaking of Jiang Dingwen, this person has quite a lot of experience!

    Within the Kuomintang army, he was not only known as one of the "Five Tiger Generals", but also as one of He Jingzhi's "Four King Kong". He became famous as the "Flying General" in the warlord melee.

    This person graduated from the Zhejiang Army Lecture Hall in his early years. He participated in the crusade against Chen Jiongming, the Northern Expedition, the Chiang-Gui War, the Chiang-Feng Yan War, the third and fifth "encirclement and suppression" campaigns against the Soviet area, and participated in the suppression of the Fujian Incident.

    After the establishment of Huangpu Military Academy, Jiang Dingwen resigned from the post of colonel and staff officer of the Generalissimo's Mansion. He was willing to go to Huangpu Military Academy and serve as the captain of the lieutenant district of the first student team. His military rank was reduced by 4 levels.  Because Jiang Dingwen had the habit of getting up early, he was often bumped into by the principal Chiang Kai-shek, leaving him with the impression of "diligence".

    Later, the military academy held a field exercise, and Jiang Dingwen was appointed as the company commander. Chiang Kai-shek and Soviet adviser Gallen came to the scene in person.  Galen asked Jiang Dingwen about several tactical moves on the spot, and he answered them fluently.

    Gallen valued Jiang Dingwen very much and recommended him to Jiang Zhongzheng, saying: "This person can be reused."

    This priceless comment deepened Chiang Kai-shek's good impression of him.  From then on, Jiang Dingwen's official career was prosperous, and he was promoted to lieutenant general in 1929.

    After the outbreak of the Central Plains War, Chiang Dingwen led his troops to fight against Feng Yuxiang's army. During this warlord melee, Chiang Dingwen's troops traveled across the Longhai and Jinpu lines, acting swiftly and erratically. He was called the "Flying General" and was highly praised by Chiang Kai-shek.  , became one of Chiang Kai-shek's "Five Tiger Generals".

    After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Jiang Dingwen was appointed commander-in-chief of the 4th Army to defend Fujian. He was transferred to Shaanxi as provincial chairman six months ago.

    During the period when he was in charge of the northwest, Jiang Dingwen abused his power and made great fortunes in the country.  He was well aware of Chiang Kai-shek's policy of "only allowing corruption, not deterioration" for his subordinates, so he unscrupulously bent the law for personal gain, became embezzled, engaged in prostitution and gambling, and became a famous "corrupt general".

    Jiang Dingwen has amassed a huge amount of private property through corruption, bribery and speculation.  According to his private accountant Lu Yilin: "The property of Mao Yuqin and Gu Fengxiang, the largest capitalists in the northwest, is only a fraction of Jiang Dingwen's."

    Although he had a wife and two concubines, he also commandeered Pink Peony, a famous Peking Opera actor in Xi'an.  Long-term promiscuity caused him to contract serious sexually transmitted diseases. Yang Huaitang, an expert in Hualiu disease, served as his personal doctor to treat him.  Yang Huaitang also became favored because of this, and he followed Jiang Dingwen to become the director of the military medical department. At that time, he became a laughing stock in the army.

    The Japanese invaders posted propaganda posters everywhere in Jiyuan County on the north bank of the Yellow River, showing Chiang Dingwen holding a beauty in one hand and holding banknotes in the other. It can be said that Chiang was portrayed in a profound way.

    More importantly, this person is also a famous gambler. It is said that this person, Gu Zhutong and Shangguan Yunxiang met in Zhengzhou to gamble heavily.  Jiang Dingwen lost three months' salary of all the officers and soldiers of the division in one night.

    The next day, the director of the munitions department needed to pay wages. Jiang Dingwen was empty-handed and anxious, so he had to bite the bullet and go to see Chiang Kai-shek.  Lao Jiang was furious and immediately ordered him to recover the lost money from Gu Zhutong.

    But Gu was also a veteran, and he could easily escape with the money in his pocket, so he immediately said that the money had been distributed to the officers and soldiers as rewards.  Lao Jiang had no choice but to give Jiang Dingwen a check of 50,000 yuan to help him tide over the difficulties.

    Chongqing asked such a corrupt and corrupt guy to be the commander-in-chief of the Hebei-Cha War Zone, and also asked him to command the Jiujiu Army in combat. How could Li Guoyao pay attention to him?

    Li Guoyao is not afraid of fighting, especially when he is fighting against little devils. Li Guoyao doesn't care anymore.

    ¡°At present, the troops under his command on the southern front include two reorganized divisions and a female brigade. In addition, two-thirds of the technical arms directly under the army are also in southern Hebei. Li Guoyao is not afraid anymore.

    It¡¯s just that Li Guoyao didn¡¯t want to let others give random orders and use the lives of his brothers to taint the black gauze hats and red hats of Jiang Dingwen and others. He knew how to fight the Japanese himself, so he didn¡¯t need to ask others to tell him what to do.

    So Li Guoyao directly asked someone to reply to the theater headquarters. He complained about his health and was unable to attend the meeting. He would ask Deputy Commander Xu Hu to attend the meeting.

    ps I took a look today and it has been pushed to the 11th place. Brothers, please help and support me!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
