Guan Linzheng's actions were launched long before Zhuang Jihua's order arrived. He asked the 24th Army to act slowly. The Xinkou Army and the 47th Army were divided into two routes. The Xinkou Army went north to attack Yinan, and the 47th Army went south to attack Junan. The 51st Army went around a big circle. From the northern end of Hanyu in northern Jiangsu, advancing north along the coastline, and heading straight to Donggang.

When the 24th Army arrived in Linyi, "Guan Linzheng understood" that this army must be under his command. Although Yang Sen was a general, Guan Linzheng had this confidence. So before going to the meeting, he ordered the troops to start dispatching.

In the 1940s, the traffic in the Yimeng Mountains was very poor, and many villages had no roads at all. Three major roads connected to each county town. The first was from Zhucheng to Ju County; from Jinan to Xintai Mengyin to Linyi through Laiwu; from Zibo to Boshan Yiyuan Yishui Yinan to Linyi. There was also a road crossing between these three highways. Going north from Ju County, through Yishui, Yiyuan, Laiwu to Tai'an.

The 24th Army's automobiles and heavy artillery had to go through these highways. "But the 47th Army, Xinkou Army and 51st Army did not have heavy artillery." When the first two advanced eastward to the Sulu War Zone, all the heavy artillery were left, carrying only light artillery. The most powerful ones were the 75th Mountain Artillery and the 92 Infantry Artillery. When attacking Linyi, insufficient artillery fire caused the troops to suffer a little, but now, without heavy artillery has become the biggest advantage of several armies.

The three armies attacked in separate ways. When Guan Linzheng returned from Jiawang Command, only the 24th Army remained near Linyi. Guan Linzheng went directly to the 24th Army Command outside the city, and within the command, he convened Yang Sen and Wang Lingji to hold a meeting to deploy combat missions.

Yang Sen was nothing, but Wang Lingji was a little dissatisfied. Yang Sen was a second-level general, "Lieutenant General Guan Linzheng", why did the lieutenant general command the general? But Guan Linzheng ignored Wang Lingji's cold words and just asked Yang Sen if he could complete the task.

Of course there is no problem with Yang Sen. "For him, this situation has not been once. Now it is the world of Huangpu. I have encountered it in the Third War Zone before.

That night, the 24th Army began to dispatch. Yang Sen took the 20th Army as the vanguard, and Wang Lingji's 73rd Army followed. The commander of the 20th Army is now Yang Hanyu, the nephew of Yang Sen, serves as the commander. Yang Hanyu took Zhou Hanxi's 133rd Division as the vanguard and attacked Ju County along the Julin Highway.

To the north of Ju County, the First Division of the New Fourth Army, which occupied Yiyuan, "led a brigade and three other guerrilla detachments, with a total force of 8,000 people" heading south from Yiyuan, passing through the southern foot of Yishan Mountain, and suddenly appeared at the junction of Yishui and Anqiu, conquering Tuoshan in one fell swoop.

Before the Japanese army stationed in Yishui responded, the New 12th Army led by Zhang Yaomin arrived and launched a strong attack on Yishui. The New 12th Army dispatched from Linyi. Zhang Yaomin played tricks and asked the New 20th Division and the 1st Division to take the Yilin Highway. He personally led the 25th Division to cross the mountains and bypass Yinan, and suddenly appeared outside the Yishui City. The 600 Japanese in the city resisted only three hours. The New 12th Army broke through the city wall and entered the city. The Japanese army was not strong in Yinan, mainly for the purpose of alertness. The New 20th Division easily captured it.

The 47th Army that attacked Junan was also very smooth. The 800 Japanese garrison in Junan had 800 people. "There were 2,000 people in Xingyajun. According to Matsui Ishigen's order, the puppet army troops were all about to retreat to the Jiaodong Peninsula. However, Ju County was the southern gate of the Jiaodong Peninsula. The main force of the Japanese army was concentrated near Tai'an. The troops on this line were seriously insufficient. The puppet army in this area was strongly demanded to stay by the captain of the Xichuan United who was responsible for the garrison in Zhucheng. When the 47th Army attacked Junan, Xingyajun immediately launched an attack on the Japanese army in the city, working inside and outside. In half a day, Ju Ran was captured by the 47th Army.

After conquering Junan and Yishui, the New 12th Army and the Forty-seventh Army did not stop. The New 12th Army went south from the Jutai Highway, "divided a division from the east bank of Mushui, heading south directly into the important roads on the Juzhi Highway to recruit talents.

The 47th Army had a longer road, but he set out earlier. After conquering Junan, Li Zongfang led the 47th Army under the guidance of the local GCD guerrillas, and passed through the eastern mountains of Junan and penetrated from the south to Ju County.

Junan, Yishui, Mengyin and other places are the GCD bases in Shandong, and the main villages and towns here are controlled by GCD. Only the county towns and major transportation roads are controlled by the Japanese army. So as long as the county town is taken down, there will be no trace of the Japanese army in these places.

The sea water slapped the shore, and the sails in the distance appeared and disappeared from time to time. "The figures flashed between the reefs on the shore, the horses roared, and Yu Xuezhong rode on the horses." They were watching as they rushed to the east. Their mission was to take down Donggang after the start of Ju County.

Guan Linzheng ambitiously commanded five troops to encircle Ju County, opened the gate leading to Jiaodong, and Zhou Hanxi, the 133rd Division who arrived at the west gate of Ju County, stared at the flying blue sky and white sun flag at the head of Ju County. Tens of thousands of troops did not form a battle formation, and they all stood there quietly. Hundreds of citizens at the gate were pounding gongs and gongs in two rows to welcome the arrival of **.

Zhou Hanxi did not enter the city because the blue sky and white sun flag on the top of the city faced a big red flag, which showed who the city is now owner.

"Report, the commander of the gcd guerrillas came to contact.

Zhou Hanxi withdrew his gaze and noticed the two people behind the adjutant who came to report. They were both young, with gray military uniforms on the upper body, and one in black pants on the lower body, and the other in gray military pants on the other. The two of them had their legs neatly matched. The adjutant took a step forward and whispered that this was the political commissar and captain of the Juxian County Brigade. Zhou Hanxi jumped out of the jeep and walked to the political commissar and captain.

"When did the Japanese run away?"

Zhou Hanxi did not think that this was a county town captured by the guerrillas himself. According to information, Ju County had a large brigade of troops and a regiment of puppet troops. Such a force was not something that guerrillas could fight against.

"Three hours ago." The young man in black pants saluted him a standard military salute. He looked obviously quieter: "To introduce myself, I am Yi Qinge, the captain of the Eighth Route Army Ju County Guerrillas."

Zhou Hanxi was a little stunned when he heard this, but he didn't say anything," he just replied with a light military salute.

"This is Lu Jun, a political commissar of the county brigade."

Lu Jun also saluted a military salute before saying, "Three hours ago, the Japanese suddenly gave up the county town, and even the prisoners of the military police team had no time to deal with it. After we got the information, we immediately attacked the city. "The puppet army in the city revolted. Please let the general enter the city."

Zhou Hanxi still didn't understand why the Japanese army suddenly gave up Ju County. He guessed that the movements of the two wings might have alarmed the enemy. He calmed down for a moment. He turned around and said to the chief of staff: "Report this situation to the commander immediately. Don't stop the troops, pass through the city and pursue the Japanese army."

The situation was reported to Guan Linzheng quickly. Guan Linzheng in the jeep was so angry that he slapped his chair and slapped it. He used five troops to divide and annihilate it. On the way to Zhucheng, the Japanese army's entire strength was the Xichuan United in Zhucheng. The total strength of this unit and the garrisons in each county was only more than 4,000, including about 2,000 people in Zhucheng, and the rest were scattered in various regions.

"Damn it! Let the bandits take the advantage!" Guan Linzheng's face turned redder. The attacks of the Xinkou Army and the 47th Army on Yishui and Junan alarmed the Xichuan of Zhucheng. This man's reaction was quite fast. "The hero cut off his arm" immediately gave up Ju County and concentrated his troops to Zhucheng.

What made Guan Linzheng most angry actually made GCD take advantage of the loopholes, and Ju County became their world. According to Zhuang Jihua's intention, during this attack, the territory occupied by the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army belonged to them. After the war in the future, GCD will be cut off by GCD.

"Commander, is it right?" the Chief of Staff became a master.

Guan Linzheng thought for a while and shook his head: "No, Commander Zhuang specifically reminded this time that the enemy is in front of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and if there is anything to do after the war, we must not use force. Besides, if we move here, the 115th Division will definitely not leave Yimeng Mountain, which will affect the attack north of the Yellow River."

Zhuang Jihua expected that there must be conflicts in this cooperation with the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army. He was afraid that these people would do whatever they wanted, especially Guan Linzheng, who had had bad deeds in this area before, so Zhuang Jihua repeatedly reminded Guan Linzheng that he would not be allowed to conflict with GCD. If it was because of his reasons, he would never be ruthless.

"I ordered the commander of the new 12th Army, the Japanese army in Ju County had abandoned the city and fled, and ordered him to immediately lead his troops to attack Anqiu and penetrate into the back road of Zhucheng. He told him that the war zone had reported that a Japanese army unit was ashore in Qingdao. "They might encounter a large group of Japanese troops."

"Tele to Commander Li of the 47th Army that the Japanese army gave up Ju County" and let him be commanded by Commander Yang Sen of the 24th Army in Ju County."

"Tele to the 51st Army Commander, the Japanese army in Ju County abandoned the city and fled, and the Japanese army in Donggang may have fled, but you must be careful. After occupying Donggang, continue to advance eastward and advance to Jiaozhou. The war zone informed that a Japanese army unit was on the shore of Qingdao. When you attack Jiaozhou, you may encounter Japanese reinforcements."

"Commander, Zhulin Highway is relatively narrow, and all three armies are on this road. Should we let the 47th Army go south and work with the 51st Army to attack Jiaozhou?" the Chief of Staff suggested.

Only then did Guan Linzheng feel that there was some omission in his deployment just now. The three armies squeezed on the Zhulin Highway, which not only delayed time, but also caused the sequential deployment of troops. More importantly, the Japanese army in Zhucheng was only 3,000, and the 24th Army had an army of 110,000, which was thirty times that of his. There was no need to worry at all.
