The phone in the war room kept ringing, and messages came from the front line one after another. This time the situation was more complicated. The Japanese and puppet troops had a large number of troops. They were afraid that our army would have big weapons like rocket launchers, so the Japanese troops did not gather together.
, instead adopted small-group and multi-channel tactics, with brigades and squadrons as units; the puppet troops used battalions and companies as units to disperse and launch attacks on our base areas. Our army was still unable to determine the total strength of the Japanese and puppet troops.
After listening to the chief of staff's report, Kong Jie frowned and cursed: "The little devil is really cunning. He even adopted a multi-channel sneak attack. It's really hard to guard against."
Because Xu Dalong, Kong Jie and others were preparing to carry out the orders of their superiors and lead the main force to march eastward, most of the main force was gathered in the Gushi area. Although the defense of the base area had already been planned, due to the lack of troops left behind, the only option was to defend.
Key areas. Although defenses have been deployed in other directions, most of them are county brigades and militiamen who lack combat experience.
The Japanese and puppet troops adopted a multi-pronged approach, which really made Kong Jie a little confused for a while.
Li Wenliang was very worried. He said with some urgency: "Think of a way quickly. Our county brigades and militiamen have insufficient weapons and lack of training. They cannot stop the Japanese and puppet troops, and they may suffer heavy losses. Once they encounter
Heavy losses will seriously affect morale, and it will be difficult to recruit new soldiers in the future. Find a way quickly."
Kong Jie said: "Our troops are all gathered here. Our army is too weak on the front line. Brother Xiaolong, does he think that's the case? He will stay outside and continue to command. You will lead the troops of the two regiments first."
Go to the rear to reinforce."
After all, Commissioner Zheng is an experienced and excellent commander. Faced with unexpected situations, he can calmly retreat and deal with them. For now, my thinking is right. The main force must go to the rear line.
Reinforcement. At the same time, I also considered that the Japanese and puppet troops might not have other plots against me, so I had to leave enough reserves for Wei Dayong who stayed outside. Therefore, I asked to bring only two main regiments to reinforce.
Wei Dayong believed that Commissioner Zheng's response was correct. I said: "Commander Kong, just do it like this. Before he followed the main force and arrived, he wanted to divide his troops and fight, and he could not let some of the Japanese and puppet troops retreat into our base area.
Concentrate the main force to seize one of the routes, annihilate both enemy routes, and then expand the results according to the battle situation."
Commissioner Zheng had no idea how to deal with the enemy troops who broke into the base area. I said with great confidence: "Here you go, Brother Xiaolong, you will keep it so that the big Japanese will regret it and come back to attack our base area." After I finished speaking, I
He walked out without looking back.
Things were arranged, and all Liu Binqi could do now was wait for news, so I found a chair and sat on it, drinking tea outside while thinking about what the Japanese and puppet troops had no intention of doing.
Commissioner Zheng wanted to use an excuse to break up the separatist war of resistance, but he could only restrain the soldiers in his hands from moving forward to avoid small-scale conflicts between the two sides.
Commissioner Zheng said: "If this is bad, he will draft a telegram and send it to Brother Xiaolong in your name."
Song Tianming came over and reported the situation to Wei Dayong. Wei Dayong did not say anything, saying that he would take a look at the situation.
Commissioner Zheng said: "That is the territory you took back and established the anti-Japanese base area. Now that the Japanese have been beaten away by you, is it right for you to take back your place? Why has it become their territory instead?
?”
After about ten minutes, several colonels of the Guo Army quickly walked towards Liu Bin. However, at this time, there was no sign of the Japanese and puppet troops who had escaped.
Seeing the small amount of fighting between the two sides, Kong Jie, who came with Commissioner Zheng, was worried that a fight would really break out, which would have a good impact on Zheng Zheng. I decided to persuade Commissioner Zheng later.
Commissioner Zheng was so angry that his lungs were about to explode due to the nonsense being harassed by many schools. I clenched my fists, wishing I could punch the guy behind me until his head was shattered.
Ten minutes ago, Song Tianming came over again. This time I didn't seem a little anxious and said: "Squad leader, it's broken. A group of Japanese and puppet troops suddenly appeared in the southeast. The current strength is detailed, but the Japanese army is at most
There is not an infantry squad, and there should be more than one puppet army regiment. A county squad and some militiamen defending in this area were able to withstand the enemy's attack. They have not yet broken up, and the casualties are very small. The Japanese army is still continuing to attack you.
retreat."
Liu Binqi could not conclude that Xu Dalong was secretly colluding with the Japanese invaders. I did not do this to prevent the Fourth Route Army from continuing to retreat eastward.
The commanders and soldiers of your army were not angry yet, and they also pointed their guns at each other.
Kong Jie's words reminded Committee Zheng and gave him a step up.
But what makes me think the problem is not minor is that the Japanese and puppet troops suddenly launched an attack and then suddenly retreated, and Xu Dalong's troops appeared outside at this time. That was definitely a coincidence.
Many schools said: "That area is not your defense area, why do you want to leave?"
Commissioner Zheng followed the troops of the two regiments, either by car or on foot, and hurried all the way to the rear line. When he arrived at the rear line, he suddenly found that all the Japanese and puppet troops who had broken into the base area had withdrawn.
Song Tianming stayed behind the phone, listening to reports on the situation at the rear at any time. News from the rear was constantly coming in. The enemy troops who had not yet exchanged fire with your army found that there was no way to see the strength of the Japanese and puppet troops.
There are too many. A county team has not been defeated by the enemy, and the Japanese and puppet troops are still continuing to retreat deep into your base area.
I immediately pulled out the shell gun from my waist, unloaded the bullets, and prepared for battle. The commanders and soldiers under the truck were all veterans. Following the order from Commissioner Zheng, we had not prepared for battle long ago.
I just want to chase down the escaping Japanese and teach us a lesson.
It must have been Li Yunlong who encountered that kind of thing and really dared to open fire on those scum of the Guo Army. I don't have such a hot temper, which is why I often get into trouble and repeatedly make mistakes, which is the main reason why I was dismissed from my post.
Outside the war room, Liu Binqi took the telegram from Liu Bin from the staff. Even before reading it, he was so angry that his teeth itched. I scolded and walked towards Wei Dayong and handed the telegram to me.
The terrain of the base area was all in Liu Binqi's mind. Just by looking at the map, I knew where the Japanese army had not reached yet. I didn't even know what the defensive strength of your army was outside.
Wei Dayong frowned slightly before reading, but even after that, the expression on his face was still very intense. I really have very little dealings with Guo Jun. These guys use all kinds of tricks to get on the stage. I
It was absolutely clear. Liu Binqi outside Shangzhou City wanted the forces of the Fourth Route Army to penetrate into the Shangzhou area, and it was to be expected that problems would arise. It was nothing to adopt such a method.
After saying that, I waved my hand, and the soldiers of the Guo army in my hands pulled up the bolts of their guns and pointed their guns at your officers and soldiers.
Commissioner Zheng was very angry and shouted: "They let the Japanese go. This is not Han behavior and must be severely punished."
"Liu Binqi." Wei Dayong said.
Kong Jie's words once again reminded Committee Zheng. When he was with Wei Dayong, Committee Zheng also consciously regarded Wei Dayong as his backbone. There was no problem that was difficult to solve. As long as Liu Binqi was found, there would be no proper solution.
Commissioner Zheng hurriedly rushed outside. He was just thinking about a small fight, but he didn't expect that it would turn out like that. I was very angry and personally led the troops to chase the enemy.
When Liu Bin saw that situation, he suddenly felt that it was wonderful. Seeing these Guojun officers and soldiers blocking the road, I stuck my head out of the cab window and asked us to get out of the way. But these Guoji officers and soldiers
No one moved, and instead the gun was pointed at Commissioner Zheng and others.
Many commanders in the Guo army were not afraid at all, so they argued: "You were fighting against the Japanese. They came over and destroyed your plan, and then they let the Japanese go. How could they blame you? They were the ones who broke up the war of resistance."
For their behavior, you have to accuse them at Xiafeng."
Before Song Tianming cursed a few more words, he asked: "Captain Xu, those damn guys are so despicable that they even stayed in our territory and left. How should he deal with this matter? He must have put those damn guys away.
Help these guys drive them away. Before we can gain a firm foothold, we will inevitably have to retreat even further. If we continue to encroach on our base, the harm will become less and less serious. We must quickly find a way to solve the dilemma behind us."
None of these officers and soldiers moved, and no one paid attention to me. Commissioner Zheng was very helpless, so he looked for the other party's commander and planned to question why we did what we did. However, I watched for a while, and all I saw was this result.
There are many military schools.
Wei Dayong said: "He led the special forces down. He defeated the Japanese and puppet troops who were retreating alone, captured some prisoners, and asked what the situation was."
At this time, the confrontation between the soldiers of the Guo army and your officers and soldiers who got off the truck had not stopped. The two sides were shouting at each other and even stopped pushing, and it was about to start a fight.
Wei Dayong smiled slightly and said: "Those damn guys want to stay outside our base area and are here like this. Damn, since we have a way to drive us away now, we can only let ourselves go!"
The many schools clearly understood what Commissioner Zheng was thinking, and I deliberately provoked: "What's the matter? Do they still dare to attack people? You are anti-Japanese friendly forces. If they dare to shoot at you, it will not break the cooperation between the two armies. That
I'm afraid he has to bear the responsibility."
This guy stood not eight or ten meters away from the outside, deliberately turning his front and back towards Commissioner Zheng. No matter how much Commissioner Zheng shouted, this guy seemed to be deafened. He looked up at the sky outside and ignored him completely.
Hearing Wei Dayong's call, Liu Binqi knew that there was no mission coming. I cheered up and hurriedly responded, walking slowly behind Wei Dayong and waiting for my order.
Wang Youde is also outside the war room. I haven't exercised my composure yet. Later, when I saw other troops going to fight, I had restrained myself for a long time. But now, I saw Wei Dayong
Sitting firmly outside, I did not take the initiative to ask for a fight. Instead, I stood behind the map and silently watched as these staff officers continuously marked the latest enemy and enemy situations.
Liu Bin was very helpless and ordered the driver to slow down and stop. When the truck stopped, Commissioner Zheng jumped up, glared at the Guojun soldiers behind him, and shouted: "Get out of the way and let you chase these Japanese."
I am also a shrewd person, and I knew that at that time, I could also strengthen the momentum of the Fourth Route Army. I said tactfully: "Kong Siling, those guys broke up the war of resistance, and the evidence is conclusive. Let's go back and write a report to the superiors and accuse them."
For our shameful behavior, the superiors will definitely punish us severely for our Han behavior. As for those despicable adults, you are so angry that there is no national law to deal with us."
That guy beat him up, and Zheng Wei was so angry that his lungs almost exploded. I really wanted to shoot that bastard guy! However, my reason told me that I could do that. Although I was so angry that the veins under my forehead popped out, I could only
Swallowing the bad breath before my eyes.
In order to escape the enemy, Commissioner Zheng ordered a battalion of troops to ride in trucks and retreat along the road to pursue them. About half an hour ago, they finally saw the Japanese troops advancing behind them.
1000 meters, 800 meters, 600 meters, 400 meters... We were about to catch up with the escaped Japanese when suddenly a few Guojun officers and soldiers burst out from the bushes beside the road. The leader was a Guojun colonel. We
He fired a burst of shots at the escaping Japanese, but failed to hit any of them. It was obvious that the muzzle of the gun was pointed toward the sky.
Song Tianming immediately called the commander of the Seventh Regiment and asked me to send the deputy commander to follow the two battalions to the rear.
To be honest, before Song Tianming read the telegram, he was immediately thinking of a solution to the problem. But those die-hards can use force, and it is very easy for us to insist on staying on the outside and drive us away.
.I thought about it for a long time, and also wanted to come up with some solution to the problem. Although I also admired Wei Dayong very much, but after all, the time of direct contact was short, I was not worried. Liu Binqi wanted to come up with a solution to the problem.
.
I thought for a while and then said: "Let the remaining 7th regiment send two more battalions over and follow the local county team and militia to conduct mobile defensive operations against the retreat of the Japanese and puppet troops. Report any situation at any time."
Wang Youde said: "Yes, Mr. Long, let him look bad." After saying that, I rolled up my sleeves and walked slowly towards the door.
I pointed at the multiple schools with my finger and said: "Those Han people who are willing to resist the war, I will deal with them sooner or later." After saying that, I ordered the troops to withdraw. But they did not go far, within two hundred meters.
place to monitor the officers and soldiers of the Kuomintang.
It was obvious that the military colonels had not finished thinking about their excuses, so I said disdainfully: "What's their territory? Just now it was clear that the Japanese were occupying there, and they were driven away by you. Those places were not recovered by you, of course they were."
It's yours. It's because you looked down upon them. They were able to defend the area, but it was occupied by the big Japanese. If you drive away the Japanese, then of course that area is no longer your Guo army's territory."
The situation behind his eyes was so serious that Commissioner Zheng also made up his mind about how to deal with it. Kong Jie suggested: "Commander Si Ling, Captain Xu often deals with people from the Guo Army. He should have no experience in that area."
.How about you ask me for instructions on how to deal with it?"
Commissioner Zheng suppressed his anger and said: "Now that the Japanese have not escaped, they must return to their defense area."
