Chapter 254 Brothers work together to break the gold
The window paper was blown by the cold wind, and the cold wind that poured into the room made the burning candle flame dance and sway, as if it might be extinguished at any time. In the dark room, Yang Ling and Xiao Tianliang sat across the table from each other.
The failure of the ambush made Yang Ling feel a little bad. He underestimated the shrewdness of the Japanese commander. He was like a hunter who carefully laid a trap and wanted to catch a big fish, but in the end he only caught a few small fish and shrimps.
But the cunning big fish has slipped away, and this sense of loss is frustrating.
"Mr. Xiao, I need your help." Yang Ling's eyes fell on Xiao Tianliang, who was drinking water from a teacup, and he stated his purpose bluntly.
Xiao Tianliang was stunned for a moment, not expecting Yang Ling to speak so directly, but a smile quickly appeared on his face because he liked to deal with straightforward people.
"Captain Yang, you helped us get rid of the traitor Li Youde. We are worried about how to thank you. If you encounter any difficulties, just say hello. As long as our anti-traitor team can do it, we will never refuse."
Yang Ling secretly praised Xiao Tianliang for being an underground worker and always doing things without leakage. Although these words were beautiful, they were almost like nonsense. He must be a master who doesn't let go of the eagle when he sees the rabbit.
"Mr. Xiao must have also seen it. Our ambush failed, so we caught a few small fish and shrimps. I want to use them as bait to set up another ambush. We don't have enough manpower. We need the help of your anti-trafficking team. Do you think?"
Xiao Tianliang looked embarrassed after hearing what Yang Ling said. He wanted to help, but their anti-rape team only numbered about twenty people, and they were distributed in different villages. It might be difficult to gather them together at the moment. Just when he was about to refuse, Yang Ling spoke again.
"As long as the ambush is successful, the people will belong to me, and the weapons and equipment will belong to you."
Xiao Tianliang sighed and said: "Captain Yang, I am not afraid of your jokes. Although our Jiangbei anti-traitor team is famous and has killed many traitors and lackeys, our number is really pitiful, with only more than 20 people. Now
They are still distributed in different villages, I’m afraid..."
Yang Ling also frowned. In his mind, the traitor squad must have good strength because they could grasp the information about Li Youde's surrender to the enemy, but he didn't expect it to be so weak.
Seeing Yang Ling's disappointed expression, Xiao Tianliang didn't want to lose face. After all, Yang Ling and the others helped their anti-traitor team eradicate the traitor Li Youde.
He gritted his teeth and said: "Although our anti-corruption team cannot be of much help, there is a guerrilla group of our party operating nearby, but... they are just erratic, and I am not sure whether I can contact them."
Hearing that there was a guerrilla group operating nearby, Yang Ling's eyes lit up. These guerrilla groups were flexible in fighting and were familiar with the terrain. If they could be contacted, it would definitely be a big help.
"Since there are guerrillas operating nearby, please contact Mr. Xiao on your behalf."
Xiao Tianliang waved his hand hurriedly and said: "Why are you so polite, Commander Yang? Now our two parties are united to fight against the enemy. Fighting the Japanese is not only your business, it is also our unshirkable responsibility. There is no need to say thank you or thank you."
"Yang Mou admires Mr. Xiao's profound sense of justice. If this ambush is successful, I will go to the top to ask for credit for Mr. Xiao."
"It's easy to talk," Xiao Tianliang stood up: "Battle Commander Yang, time is urgent, so I will contact the guerrillas right away."
"It's dark and the roads are slippery. Please be careful along the way, Mr. Xiao." Yang Ling stood up and sent Xiao Tianliang out the door.
After Xiao Tianliang left, Yang Ling called several dejected company commanders into the room to make arrangements for tomorrow's enemy luring operation, hoping to defeat this powerful Japanese force in one fell swoop.
This is a big bet. Yang Ling is betting that this group of Japs who escaped will come back, because he guesses that this group of Japs must have gone to Nanjing to perform a secret mission. Now someone has been caught. If they don't come back to rescue them, then the mission will be over.
There is a possibility of leaking secrets. If this Japanese commander is not stupid, he will definitely come back.
Yang Ling's arrangement was also very simple. He personally led some of his men to escort the captured Japanese as bait, while the other group of brothers hid in the dark with the guerrillas and waited for opportunities. As long as the hidden Japanese dared to take action, then they would be killed.
Surround and annihilate them.
Now most of the main forces of the Japs are heading towards the Zhendan Plain. The Japs disguised as the National Revolutionary Army have infiltrated into Nanjing from Jiangbei. The number is not large. Moreover, this is still the territory of the National Revolutionary Army, so Yang Ling has the confidence to make the plan.
came up with this decoy plan.
"Are your respective tasks clear?"
Lao Yanqiang muttered: "The mission is clear, but I still feel that this guerrilla team is unreliable."
"Oh? Why is it so unreliable?" Lao Yanqiang's words aroused Yang Ling's interest.
"A few years ago, my unit fought against the guerrillas when they were encircling and suppressing them. They ran away if they couldn't be beaten. They crawled through mountains and forests, and they couldn't be chased away. I figured that if we start fighting with the Japanese then, if anything happens
The situation is unfavorable. What can we do if they run away? Aren’t we going to be passive?"
Yang Ling knew that in fact Lao Yanqiang's trust in the guerrillas was not just a matter of trust, but a matter of heart.
The brothers who used to beat each other to death when they met now have to shake hands and fight the Japanese together, no matter how awkward it is. While fighting the Japanese, they have to worry about whether they will be stabbed in the back. After all, the grievances and grievances in the past are not the same.
Both sentences can be explained clearly.
Yang Ling enlightened the company commanders and said: "Let me give you an analogy. We and the guerrillas are like two brothers in the same family, and the Japanese are like wolves that eat people. It is true that the two brothers fought to the death over the family property and had grudges. But,
Now there is a wolf in the house, and the wolf wants to eat people, what do you think we should do?"
"Let's kill the wolf first!" Qin Shou replied without thinking.
"Yes, we have to kill the man-eating wolf first. Our two parties are like two brothers. Now the two brothers have joined forces to fight the wolf. If we still have grudges and are wary of each other, then we are not letting the wolf take advantage. So
Ah, we have to trust, we have to fight side by side, and fight the man-eating wolves and the Japanese together! Do you understand what I'm saying?"
After thinking for a moment, Lao Yanqiang nodded and said, "That seems to be the case."
"The so-called brothers who work together are stronger than gold. This is the truth. As long as we unite and twist into a rope, sooner or later the Japanese will be driven away. If we continue to fight in the same nest now, it will be a joke to the Japanese."
Seeing that everyone understood, Yang Ling said with a smile: "Everyone cheer up. When the time comes, we will fight side by side with the guerrillas. Our guerrilla camp cannot lose to the guerrillas in fighting the Japanese, right?"
"Then we must surpass them. Our guerrilla battalion has killed the Japanese generals." Qin Shou grinned.
"Okay, everyone, let's go down and get ready." Seeing that morale was improving, Yang Ling waved his hand to dismiss the meeting.
