After receiving the order, Chu Zhenhu said: "We failed this operation, let the old enemy Motegi pick up another life, so we have to let him live for two more days." I ordered Yang Ming to lead the second company to start immediately, go to Gaojiagou, climb over the mountains, and assemble to the west of Nantaizi; Lin Ruyuan led the third company to pack up and bring all the things, and then followed up, except for the first company, everyone went on the road together; Li Maotian led a company of people who were waiting to bury the sacrifices and came back, and they went on the road together......"

At 10 a.m. on March 10, Brigadier Commander D held a military meeting in the war room of the Kara Street Brigade Headquarters.

Jia Congliang secretly looked for Brigade Commander Ding to attend the meeting as a representative of Nanjing. Ji Zhanwen, Director Han, and Section Chief Li had just returned, and they went to Majiazi, Wujia and other villages to inspect and arrange for the lightly wounded to set off to the west, climb over the Cangcang Dam Beam, go to the paddock and Longhua to recuperate, and other things. This would reduce the pressure on the field hospital and make way for the army to retreat westward. When they walked into the war room, Jia Congliang was talking about the encirclement and suppression of the Red Army by the national army in Jiangxi and other southern. Seeing them come in, there was a look of disdain on his face. The implication is that the more the 117th Brigade retreats southward, the more confident he, the representative of Nanjing, becomes.

On the way, Section Chief Li heard Director Han tell him and Deputy Brigade Commander Ji that after receiving a notice from Chen Jinghu, the Red Army in the south and the Kuomintang army gathered by Chiang Kai-shek were engaged in a bloody battle, and had fought four encirclement and suppression and counter-encirclement and suppression, and the Red Army had won a great victory in the fourth time. Chiang Kai-shek became more and more worried about the Red Army, and his attitude towards the anti-Japanese resistance still implemented the policy of "settling the interior before the outside...... At this time, I heard that Jia Congliang was lying there and deceived everyone with a complete lie, and he must have deceived Brigade Commander Ding as well. He said: "Colonel Jia, chatting and lying is not as good as yours, the four encirclement and anti-encirclement and suppression of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in the south all ended with the victory of the Red Army......

Jia Congliang's face turned red, looked at Brigade Commander Ding and said, maybe there is a mistake in the message, I will check it again. I had to leave the war room in disgrace. At this time, Brigade Commander Ding only looked down at his map, and did not mean to greet the three of them who had just entered the house. Deputy Brigade Commander Ji looked at him, and it turned out that the tacit understanding that could be generated with a look and a smile did not exist today.

In fact, this tacit understanding is often reached between the two of them, between Director Han and any of them. This tacit understanding has also turned into a victory against devils again and again. But this time, Brigade Commander Ding didn't answer the glance thrown by Deputy Brigade Commander Ji, and just lowered his head, smoked a cigarette, and his expression was heavy. In the war room, the air immediately became solemn.

The regimental commanders observed everything coldly in a solemn atmosphere. But what Jia Congliang said just now, some of them are still recalling in their ears, "Brigade Commander Ding, the president has repeatedly said that if you go outside, you must first settle inside." At this moment, the national army is busy clearing the ** Red Army. According to the president's wishes, our brigade should no longer fight with the Japanese army. The Orientals are not easy to mess with, and if they make diplomatic representations, it will embarrass President Chiang......"

Deputy Brigade Commander Ji looked at Brigade Commander Ding, he didn't understand what was wrong with Brigade Commander Ding, let Jia Congliang make a big fuss, when did he allow him to come to the combat meeting? Director Han and Ji Zhanwen looked at each other and said, "Brigade Commander Ding, I don't dare to agree with this Colonel Jia's statement. Our 117th Brigade has sacrificed thousands of brothers since the war against the Japanese invaders on the grassland. At this time, standing on our land, what are you afraid of his little devil? The wolf ambition of the little devil is obvious, he originally occupied the three eastern provinces, and now he wants to occupy the Rehe ......"

Hearing him say this, Brigade Commander Ding was also a little indignant, he thought to himself that all the units of the 41st Army fought desperately, but they couldn't keep Rehe. Although he didn't say it, his mood had improved significantly. At this time, Head Miao said angrily: "President Jiang is afraid of diplomatic embarrassment, the great rivers and mountains in the Northeast have been lost, and Rehe is about to be lost, doesn't he feel embarrassed?" Commander Lin also said angrily: "One day when his surname Jia asked us to withdraw the army, but the lives of thousands of brothers in my 117 Brigade are gone, will he pay for his life?" ”

Commander Yang finally couldn't hold it back, he said: "Guard, call Jia Congliang, I have something to ask him." Jia Congliang followed the guards into the war room again, looked at this and that with a little fear, turned back to Brigade Commander Ding and said, "Brigade Commander Ding, I didn't say anything......

Commander Yang took out a pistol, stepped forward to put the muzzle of the gun on his head, and asked, "You didn't say anything, what are you talking about, you will give up the whole Rehe to Little Japan." Your mother-in-law and mother are going to withdraw the army one day, will the old devil Motegi let us go? People are here to kill us, and you are here to send us our lives on behalf of the Nanjing government......" Jia Congliang looked back at Brigade Commander Ding as if asking for help, and pretended to be innocent and said: "Where is this ......?"

Brigade Commander Ding raised his eyebrows at Regiment Commander Yang and said: "Put the gun down, he is also the representative of Nanjing, and now is the most important time for the muzzle of the gun to be unanimous with the outside world...... Regiment Commander Yang shook his gun and withdrew the gun, and said: "Brigade Commander Ding, we are sending the gun to the outside, but is he the Nanjing government going to the outside world?" Let's fight so far, has he made up for a soldier? I scolded this kid, he didn't have a good heart here every day......"

When Brigade Commander Ding looked at it, he said that the situation in the whole country was the small north of Rehe, or the 117th Brigade, and it was really difficult to convince the public if he didn't talk about fighting devils. He impatiently raised his hand outwards and asked Jia Congliang to go out. Jia Congliang had no choice but to walk outside, but he didn't expect this to be the result. Originally, I wanted to take advantage of Han Linfu's absence, he happened to blow some pillow wind, and the main force commander was there, so as to reiterate the meaning of Nanjing, maybe someone would rise up and respond, after all, this battle was too tired. Brigade Commander Ding, instigated by a few red elements, drove the north and south under their command and ran for his life......

Before Brigade Commander Ding could answer Director Han's words, he was interrupted by several regiment commanders who angrily questioned Jia Congliang, and at this time he really felt that the anger of the officers and soldiers towards Nanjing was like a volcano. Standing in the crater, Fang felt how harmful Jia Congliang's words and deeds were. But he also felt that he owed Jia Congliang a little favor, after all, the 41st Army had spent 500,000 yuan on the ocean, and Commander Sun also brought it when he left. In the hot north of the beacon fire, it is impossible to have money to pay you back, but it is also impossible to withdraw the army with you. It is better to let him leave the 117 brigade early to avoid accidents......

When the personnel arrived, some sat down on the edge of the kang, and some sat down around the Eight Immortals table, Brigade Commander Ding saw that the atmosphere before the war was already very strong, so he said happily: "Motegi will return to Houtougou tonight, and his newly supplemented 13th and 17th Wings are stationed in Chuanxindian and Tiegoumener, and the artillery brigade is also stationed between Chuanxindian and Tiegoumener, forming a three-point line and linking with each other. After Motegi returns, he will definitely move his troops to the west, and what I and the brigade headquarters mean is that the original positions of the various departments will not move, so as not to adapt to all changes. The Special Service Regiment is still stationed in Langgou, the 236th Regiment is still stationed in the west of Langgou, the 233rd Regiment and the 234th Regiment are still stationed in Danangou and Xigou, and the directly subordinate teams except the Special Service Regiment are still stationed in the villages of Nantaizi, Liujia and Karajie and in the woods under the mountains to the north. ”

Brigade Commander Ding took a sip of water and asked Deputy Brigade Commander Ji, "Zhanwen, you say a few words." Deputy Brigade Commander Ji said, "Which commander has an idea, please tell me?" Brainstorm and unite as one. Commander Miao and Commander Yang looked at each other, and Commander Miao said: "Ladies and gentlemen, it was originally planned that the 233rd and 234th regiments were mainly ambushed by devils in Nangou and Xigou, but the day before yesterday they fought in Wolf Ditch, and the devils did not attack. We believe that this time the devils will come west again, and they will definitely overwhelm the border. The various ministries mentioned by Chief Ding just now should be in an excited position at all times, so as to prepare for a battle with the devil's heavy troops in Nantaizi......"

After he finished speaking, Commander Lin Qingshan continued: "Our unit is fortified in Gaojiagou, and I originally planned to ambush a certain unit of devils who are looking for war and hunting, but it was not done twice on the 8th and 9th. But I discussed with everyone in the regiment that with the strength of my department, we can only rely on luring the enemy deep and ambushing him, otherwise it will be difficult to take advantage! Everyone was amused, and most people agreed with him.

Brigade Commander Ding said, "Director Han, tell me about it. He smiled shyly and said: "Based on the speeches of the commanders, all the departments of my 117th Brigade have been prepared for a long time, whether they are maneuvering to meet the enemy or luring the enemy deeper, it depends on what the devil likes......" Everyone was amused again, and even Brigade Commander Ding laughed. Director Han continued: "In this place of Rebei, Motegi is determined to get it, but my 117th Brigade and those dignitaries in Nanjing are not the same kind of people, and we have to make Motegi pay the price of blood for every inch of land we occupy." Everyone applauded.

He continued: "We are not alone, Song Zheyuan's 29th Army is moving from eastern Hebei to Xifengkou to block the enemy. It is not difficult to see that as the Japanese army approached from Longwangshu step by step, the Kuomintang had to send multiple troops to meet the battle. Albeit passively. The Kuomintang 17th Army is beginning to assemble the Gubeikou and Guchengchuan lines; The 106th Division of the Northeast Army was fighting hard against the Japanese army in Qingshiliang. At the same time, under the arduous appeal of the democratic parties and others, an atmosphere of all-people fighting the war of resistance has been formed, regardless of whether the land is north or south, and people are old and young, and a war of resistance with the ancient Great Wall of China as the battlefield has begun.

Director Han looked up at Brigade Commander Ding with a smile, and his words were finished. Brigade Commander Ding said: "I order, the original station of each department remains unchanged, the 235th Regiment is deployed in Gaojiagou, it can be considered, tomorrow morning can send a force out of Liang until the wolf ditch gate to lead the enemy; The troops of the 234th Regiment who ambushed the camp position should be mobile and flexible, and learn the strengths of the last battle of Wolf Goumen; The special service regiment stationed in Wolf Ditch should pay attention to the last time it fought with the invading Japanese army, so as to prevent the enemy from familiarizing himself with the terrain and touching in...... "For the one-word company of the 236th regiment, in fact, it is a good job of showing the form to lure the enemy, but it is not a regular way of fighting, I want to praise two sentences, and swallow back."

A sentry came to report and said: "Report, Rehe Special Operations Brigade, the forward has arrived in Gaojiagou Gou, please instruct ......"
