"From the arrangement of the Japanese army, Fengxian County is the arrow, Shanxian County, Peixian County is the two wings, Yutai and Jinxiang as the backing, echoing and supporting each other, forming a stable triangular offensive and defense posture. Although the enemy did not aggressively advance the attack on our base, it was just a matter of time." Chief of Staff Liang Moqing stood up and walked to the large map hanging on the wall, pointing it with a teaching stick, "In addition, if the enemies of Xiaoxian, Suxian and Heze are acting at the same time, it is obviously a siege. We have to divide our troops around to resist the enemy's attack."

After pausing, Liang Moqing slashed the Huxi area with a teaching whip as if he was swinging a knife. "If our army could enter Huxi before the enemy's strategic deployment was completed, it would not only destroy the enemy's attempt to siege, but also inserted a steel knife between Heze and Xuzhou. Xiao County will face the threat from the south, north and west, and Heze will be under the attack from our army in the south and east directions."

"So, while the enemy has not yet established a stable foothold, our army must act first and take the initiative first." Liang Moqing put down the whip and said in a deep voice: "The participating troops are tentatively set to be the 25th Division, and the preliminary combat plan is formulated in this way. First..."

Seeing Yang Tianfeng's gesture, Liang Moqing temporarily stopped and announced a temporary recess, and had private discussions with Yang Tianfeng. The combat plan was initially formulated, which was to improve and finalize the military discussion, and make some temporary changes.

Obviously, Yang Tianfeng's thinking has changed, and he is not satisfied with just repelling the enemy, but rather destroying as much of the enemy's vitality as possible. In this way, the force used must be increased and the direction of the attack must be changed.

"The enemy in Bengbu was severely damaged and it is difficult to launch a large-scale move in a short period of time. With the Eighth Cavalry Division stationed in Longkang, it can basically be safe." Yang Tianfeng pointed to the map and said: "Similarly, the enemies in Xiao and Su County show no sign of strengthening, and the possibility of launching an attack in the short term is not high. Furthermore, there are two configurations of the twenty-six and twenty-seven divisions that are enough to deal with the threat from the east. Therefore, I am planning to increase my troops and give the enemy a heavy blow while restoring the Huxi area, and gain more time to stabilize the new area."

The original combat plan was to be weak first and then strong. First, start from Dan County on the left, and strive to eliminate the enemy reinforcements from Yutai, Jinxiang and Fengxian with the tactics of surrounding points to attack reinforcements; then wait for an opportunity to attack Fengxian and Peixian in order to form a three-way attack on Yutai and Jinxiang.

Such combat has its own benefits and is relatively stable. It can be defeated by relying on the advantage of local forces. But stability means conservative, which means that the enemy has a way out to retreat. It is easy to defeat, but it is difficult to wipe out the entire battle.

Liang Moqing quickly understood what Yang Tianfeng meant, that is,: put aside the stability and adopt a more radical combat strategy, try to cut off the enemy's retreat, gather and annihilate it.

"Add a brigade may not necessarily have a stable chance of winning." Liang Moqing expressed his opinion carefully, "The main force must fight in depth to cut off the enemy's retreat. Not only should we beware of the attacks of the enemy in Yutai and Fengxian on the east side, but we should also be careful of the abnormal movements of the enemy in Heze on the west side."

"What if the security brigade is also pulled up?" Yang Tianfeng was a little stubborn and reached out to draw an arc on the map. "While the main force penetrated deep into the depth, the two brigades can not only protect the two wings, but also wait for an opportunity to ambush the reinforcements of the enemy."

Liang Moqing thought for a while and said, "The key is how the main force can move quickly in the enemy-occupied area. The enemy's aircraft reconnaissance is very powerful. If our army only operates at night, the time will be rushed and there will be many variables."

Yang Tianfeng frowned slightly, Liang Moqing's worries were not redundant. The 25th Division had nearly 20,000 troops. It was indeed difficult to avoid the enemy's reconnaissance and ears, attack Yutai and occupy it, thereby cutting off the retreat of the enemy in Shan, Feng and Pei counties and completing the deployment of the annihilation battle.

Liang Moqing certainly understood Yang Tianfeng's painstaking efforts to change the combat plan. If he could annihilate the enemies in Huxi area at once, or even severely hurt them, it would open up the situation in Huxi. But no matter how he looked at it, Yang Tianfeng seemed to be a little hasty and was too anxious.

After a long period of thinking and silence, Liang Moqing tentatively said: "Military, after restoring the Huxi region, have you formulated corresponding strategies and tactics. I hope that the troops stationed in the garrison will temporarily learn the Eighth Route Army's fighting style and conduct flexible and maneuverable anti-sweeping operations without any bottles and jars? Moreover, this will be the main tactics in the future in the guerrilla zone. If this is the case, I don't think there is too much appetite, it's better to take a long-term perspective."

Yang Tianfeng sighed in his heart. Liang Moqing's words were correct. With sufficient troops, he was indeed a little too anxious.

However, Liang Moqing's words just now reminded Yang Tianfeng that is feasible to learn the Eighth Route Army's fighting style, or disguise themselves as the Eighth Route Army to confuse the enemy and lure them to go out?

After listening to Yang Tianfeng's new idea, Liang Moqing thought for a while and said, "This is very likely to be successful. Judging from the enemy's garrison, they are obviously afraid of our attacks and dare not overdo their troops. Although the enemy occupies the county town and several large towns, they have not yet established a stable rule in the countryside, and the defense in many areas is still weak. With a limit of three to five thousand people, they are broken into pieces, scattered and penetrated from the enemy's weakness, and then changed from zero to the whole. I think it is feasible."

"Three or five thousand people are just a brigade." Yang Tianfeng nodded and said, "Although it is necessary to be as light as possible, the 82 and 60 mortars can be carried. With such a force moving in the heart of the enemy, causing changes in the enemy's deployment and creating opportunities for annihilation for the large army, it is safer. Yes, I was indeed a little anxious just now, but I was a little too haste. If I hadn't had a resourceful chief of staff, my military operations would have been frustrated."

"Not that serious." Liang Moqing shook his head and said modestly: "According to the strength of our army, it is even more impossible to defeat. Perhaps it can solve the enemy in Huxi more quickly and achieve a great victory!"

Yang Tianfeng laughed and waved his hands repeatedly, "Right is right, wrong is wrong. My Chief of Staff doesn't have to be too modest. Since the big policy has been determined, let's hold a new meeting and discuss it carefully!"

…………

"War is a monster that people kill each other for a certain benefit. However, different wars have different meanings and different influences, and provide different references and warnings for future generations. However, the war between China and Japan in the 1930s and 1940s will be unprecedented in Chinese history. Yu and others firmly believe that this war will also be the first time that the Chinese nation has appeared in front of historical judges as a victor..."

"...For the national anti-aggression war, to win victory, we must undoubtedly rely on our own military and civilians first. This is the source and foundation of victory. However, this war is different from the national self-defense war that has occurred in history, such as the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Sino-British Opium War, etc. This war was international from the beginning, attracted the attention of the international community, and received support and assistance from many internationalists. As the war progresses, with the great release of the jackal personality of the Japanese invading army, it will surely receive more and more international assistance and support."

"The phoenix is ​​reborn from the ashes. This cruel war imposed on us will also awaken the national consciousness of the whole nation and form unprecedented unity. The war against Japan will surely win, which is undoubtedly the victory. Victory will surely end the history of the modern Chinese people's repeated failures in opposing imperialist aggression and humiliation, improve China's international status, enhance the national self-esteem and self-confidence of the Chinese people, and become a major turning point for the Chinese nation from decline to revitalization, laying the foundation for the independence of the country and the liberation of the nation..."

"...The strength is not preserved, but is fought in wars and tempered by bloody battles. A hundred warriors with rich experience and experiences are better than thousands. Thousands of new recruits who tremble when they hear the gunshots. This is the lesson and experience of Yu and others in many bloody battles with the Japanese invaders..."

Good articles are fragrant and bitter green tea, which make people savor it carefully. Good articles are oil paintings with profound artistic conception, which make people amazing. Good articles are even more clarion call, history, inspiring and awakening.

The draft written by Yang Tianfeng, polished and modified by Zhao Yurou, was not only published in the tabloids in the base area, but also published continuously by Guangming Daily and National Salvation Daily in the rear, and was also listed as a column.

Then, with the help of later research and views, "Thunder" and "Soft Wind" seem to be senior critics and strategic and tactical analysts. They conducted intricate analysis and comment on several battles of the Sino-Japanese War, including the Battle of Shanghai, the Battle of Taierzhuang, the Battle of Wuhan, and the Battle of Nanjing. They all have unique and novel insights.

At the same time, Yang Tianfeng also gave a detailed discussion on the advantages and disadvantages and combat characteristics of the Chinese and Japanese military forces themselves, and proposed many methods to make up for shortcomings with cleverness and strengths and weaknesses. It specifically stated the dangers of the National Army's enlistment of men and exiles, as well as the major flaws of many military forces' training time being too short and lack of ideological education.

Of course, Yang Tianfeng also criticized the factions of the National Army, who had many factions and fought independently, rarely united and fought together, and was defeated by the Japanese army. He also pointed out that many senior generals of the National Army were dull and monotonous in their minds. Although they were enthusiastic, the enemy was not annihilated and died first. Especially in all major battles, they were heroic, but unfortunately they could not stop the Japanese invaders from moving south and westward.

At first, Yang Tianfeng just wanted to boost the will of the Chinese people to resist the war and improve the fighting methods of the anti-Japanese armed forces. However, later, he received letters from Zhao Yurou from time to time, raising many doubts or debates with him. Yang Tianfeng suddenly realized that even those who were highly educated like Zhao Yurou don’t understand many problems of the Sino-Japanese War, let alone those ordinary people. He will definitely be confused by the politics, theories, and wars that they do not understand.

During the Anti-Japanese War, the chaos in the people's thoughts was indeed very powerful. The chaos in the thoughts caused the differentiation and even contradictions of the country's cohesion. The most feared was that at an extraordinary moment when it should be consistent with the outside world, the chaos and contradictions in the thoughts could make the country vulnerable. The chaos in the Kuomintang government during the War of Resistance Against Japan is a good example. Especially after Wang Jingwei surrendered, he was the vice president of the Kuomintang and had a certain appeal. His theory of "peaceful country building" could also confuse some people.

Japan is different. In the war of aggression against China, Japanese militarism carried out a "literary mobilization". Except for a few, the vast majority of Japanese writers actively "worked together" the war of aggression against China. Among them, some of them were "military writers" to drive the front line of China, waving flags and shouting for the war of aggression against China; some of them enlisted in the army and became members of the army of aggression against China; more people joined various militarist cultural and literary organizations, using pens as guns to fabricate the so-called "war literature" to fuel the war of aggression against China.

These Japanese literati either incite the war fanaticism of the people and call the war of aggression against China a "holy war"; or impose the responsibility of the war on China to argue for the improper word of the war of aggression against China; or poetically and beautify the cruel acts of the Japanese army, and write about the "cute" and "brave" of the "Imperial Army"; or vilify the Chinese people and exaggerate how China and the Chinese are ignorant and barbaric; or distort the situation in the occupied areas and talk nonsense about how the Chinese people and the "Imperial Army" are "friendly"; or conduct slave education and deception propaganda on the people of the occupied areas...

This is what Japanese writers did during the war of aggression against China. At that time, the Japanese militarist propaganda machine called the writers sent to the front line of aggression against China to join the army to interview the "Pen Army".

During the war of aggression against China, the "Pen Army" and the "Gun Army" (armed forces) formed a militaristic wartime system that echoed the upper and lower levels, "unity between officials and the people", soft and hard butcher knife, and civil and military.

The "Ben Army" and the producers of Japanese literature invading China are the incitements and advocates of the war of aggression against China, the main body of the so-called "ideological war" and "ideological propaganda war", and the main force of Japan's cultural invasion and infiltration of China. They play an irreplaceable role of the "gun troops" in the war of aggression against China.

More importantly, the literature of invasion of China is not only a ironclad evidence of the history of invasion of China left by Japanese militarism, but also an important carrier of Japanese militarism. The so-called "war soul" and "military soul" of Japanese militarism are included in it, and the Japanese's ideological "concept" of invasion of China and the fanatical sentiment towards China are included in it.

Guns are used to guns, pens are used to pens, and both material and spiritual hands must be grasped, and both hands must be hard. This is the main reason why Yang Tianfeng is always taking time to make "thunder" and "soft wind" continue to launch new articles. Not only that, Yang Tianfeng also sent people to collect, record and organize the bad records of the Japanese devils, and occasionally promote and arouse the military and civilians in the base area.
