The New Fourth Army in southern Jiangsu achieved a major victory, and central Jiangsu and northern Jiangsu also blossomed in full swing. Even Chang'an District in Wuxi County fought against the Japanese and puppets.

After the Japanese occupied Jiangsu, what urgently needed to be solved was military rations. The Japanese army planned to purchase more than 50,000 tons of grain in the grain-producing areas every year. Especially after Japan was often bombed, the Japanese army needed to rely on China's food.

However, some enlightened gentry, town merchants, primary and secondary school teachers and students and peasants in 14 townships in Chang'an District, totaling more than 6,000 people. Under the secret leadership of the CCP's underground party and the armed forces, a half-month struggle to pay military rations was launched, which failed to purchase military rations in this area.

More than 2,000 farmers near Taixing-Huangqiao Highway, under the leadership of the Communist Party and the armed forces, demolished the blockade wall of more than 40 miles of the enemy and the puppet overnight. Later, some people spontaneously participated in the operation after hearing the news, and the next night, they demolished the blockade wall of 20 miles.

The situation in northern Jiangsu is even better, and the blockade of the wall is useless. Not only that, the New Fourth Army troops dispatched their own troops and cooperated with each other, and often attacked a stronghold at the same time.

When the Japanese army first occupied Jiangsu, they built bunkers. At that time, the New Fourth Army had to take out a stronghold, which cost a lot of money. At that time, we had no weapons and bombs, and the resistance of the Japanese and puppet troops was also very stubborn. In northern Jiangsu, we would not promote the loss of three or five bunkers at a time, because it was too common.

The Japanese army deeply felt that the Japanese army in Jiangsu was insufficient. At the same time, the combat effectiveness of the puppet army in Jiangsu was too poor. Some of them had already "matched" with the New Fourth Army and were preparing to transfer the Second Front Army in Henan to northern Jiangsu and participate in the mobilization.

Hu Xiaomin took out a combat plan and handed it to Feng Wu, whispering: "This is the sweeping plan of the 65th Division and the Second Front Army, and it will be sent out as quickly as possible."

Half a month later, all units of the Third Division of the New Fourth Army and local armed forces and militias actively fought back. After 10 days and nights of fierce fighting, they defeated the Japanese and puppet troops' sweep, killing, wounding and capturing more than 1,000 Japanese and puppet troops.

The military and civilians of Huaihai District actively supported this battle and continuously attacked the Sun army in Huaiyin, Shuyang, Guanyun and other places, conquered more than 20 Japanese and puppet strongholds, and liberated the vast area north of Guanhe.

This time, the Japanese and puppets stole chickens and did not lose rice. They wanted to sweep northern Jiangsu, but the control area in Hebei was liberated.

The dock intelligence team was once again praised by superiors and received the action plan of the Japanese and puppet troops in advance, which was very conducive to our army's anti-sweeping campaign.

When Hu Xiaomin met Feng Wu, he asked, "Has Lao Tang been back yet?"

Feng Wu took out a handwritten letter from Xu Junhe: "I'm back, this is a letter from Xu Junhe to our party."

In order to show his attitude, Xu Junhe took the risk of writing a letter himself. In the letter, he first explained his situation. He was also a passionate youth at the beginning, but later he took a detour and walked around outside, and found that Marxism is the best ideology and the Communist Party is the party that truly considers the people.

If there is a chance, Xu Junhe hopes to continue to do something for the Communist Party. He is a person who has taken detours. Now he has identified the situation. No matter what changes happen in the future, no matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are, he will move forward bravely without hesitation.

Xu Junhe asked the Communist Party to examine his sincerity. He believed that no matter what method he used, he could pass. He could pass it, no matter whether it was blood or fire.

Hu Xiaomin said: "This is Xu Junhe's application for joining the party. If he is really willing to join the party, I can be his introduction to join the party."

Hu Xiaomin felt very pleased to see Xu Junhe's letter. Xu Junhe was originally the Secretary of the Communist Youth League Central Committee and an authentic Communist Party member. His qualifications were much deeper than Hu Xiaomin. If Xu Junhe had not rebelled, he would have been the head of the central government now.

Feng Wu said with emotion: "Who could have thought that Xu Junhe would go back?"

He always felt that Xu Junhe was a big spy and Zhao Shijun's right-hand assistant. He never thought that Xu Junhe still had such feelings for the Communist Party.

Hu Xiaomin said: "He and Zhao Shijun were both from the Communist Party and had always had contact with the South China Intelligence Bureau and the Central China Bureau. When the provincial party committee withdrew from Shanghai, Xu Junhe personally made arrangements. At that time, the clues could be seen."

Feng Wu took out another document: "By the way, this is the Central China Bureau's work policy next year, as well as the combat statistics of our army in the past month."

The Central China Bureau of the Communist Party of China formally proposed the working policy in 1945, pointing out that Germany had been attacked by the Soviet Union, Britain and the United States and was about to fall; Japan was defeated. The task in the future is to expand the liberated areas, strengthen the work of cities and transportation routes, continue to develop production, and further consolidate the liberated areas; use the greatest strength and all possible methods to reorganize the one-party dictatorship national government and establish a democratic coalition government.

The Communist Party has a far-sighted vision and has been able to accurately predict that the Japanese army will be defeated. What we need to consider now is the restructuring of the National Government after Japan's defeat.

In fact, even if you can't see the international situation clearly, you can see from the combat statistics of the New Fourth Army that Japan is about to decline.

In one month, the New Fourth Army experienced 6,582 large and small battles, captured 570 Japanese and puppet troops, destroyed 764 enemy bunkers. 3,032 Japanese soldiers were killed, 1,143 Japanese soldiers were injured, and 135 Japanese soldiers were captured; 10,732 puppet troops were killed, 7,321 puppet troops were injured, and 28,991 puppet troops were captured; 29,361 insidious and cavalry rifles, 665 light machine guns, 60 heavy machine guns, 37 mortars, 11 infantry cannons, and 70 small cannons were seized. Anyway, the puppet troops surrendered 1,853. The New Fourth Army lost 3,499 commanders and fighters, and 7,173 were injured.

At this speed, after three months, our army can completely curb the Japanese offensive, and even in less than three months, our army can counterattack in full swing.

Hu Xiaomin slapped the table: "That's great, it's really exciting and good news. Such news should be promoted more to let more people see Japan's upcoming failure. If they don't surrender, all they can wait for is death. If you ask Tang Yiguan to give this statistics on the results of the war to Xu Junhe, let him see how powerful our army is."

In fact, Hu Xiaomin and Xu Junhe can basically guess this result statistics. They are professional agents. If they can't get any information, what kind of political security directors are they?

Of course, the numbers on the Japanese and puppet sides are not so accurate. For the sake of face, the Japanese army generally concealed them. Although 300 people died, they only told the Chinese side that 30 people died. They would rather let the country quickly replenish troops. However, the puppet troops would report the results of the battle based on the situation, sometimes concealed them, and sometimes underreported them.

But no matter what, what everyone believes most is the statistics of the Communist Party. According to Hu Xiaomin's suggestion, this result was sent to newspapers and published in major newspapers.

Seeing that the New Fourth Army suffered greater casualties than the Japanese army, the people supported the New Fourth Army more. You should know that it is now the counterattack stage, and it is normal for the New Fourth Army to suffer greater casualties than the Japanese army.
