19. To Longhua
When the troops went down to Yuciliang, the speed was faster, and many soldiers rolled down with a wheel, some companies went down to Erdaogou, some went to Liangdi Ditch at once, and some went down to Sedai Ditch...... There are really a lot of ditches and forks in the east of Yuciliang, and they are all full of soldiers. There are not many people who can go down to the big platform of the half-beam, it is too crowded, the organization is completely chaotic, and the commanders at all levels are busy gathering their own companies. Some of the quick-witted commanders stood on the Liang Valley and shouted the number of their company.
Although after a lot of hard work, the enthusiasm of the people in Jingoutun, Luanhe and Zhangbaiwan still warms everyone's heart. This man, as long as he has a warm heart, he has inexhaustible strength under his feet.
The troops gathered and marched, and the 118th Brigade rushed to the front to run forward, but in fact, their troops were not gathered, so each battalion and company left people to wait for the scattered soldiers, and the others hurriedly ran from the big platform to the beam. The other military departments directly under the army that had already descended to the big platform also followed closely. The troops who came down from the beam later reported that the vanguard of the artillery brigade was about to go up to the top of the beam......
When Commander Sun saw that Advisor Li and Director Han were also coming down the mountain, he asked them and said, "How high is this Yuciliang, why is it so difficult to climb?" Consultant Li said: "Don't look at it as difficult to climb, this is an ancient road, during the Song Dynasty, the envoys of the Song and Liao countries always passed through this mountain, leaving a lot of poems." You said it was high, it was very high, and people at that time called it Touch Dou Ling, which means that standing on this ridge, you can touch the Big Dipper......"
Commander Sun raised his head and looked at the top of the mountain with an eye patch, then smiled dumbly and said, "No matter how high you are, you can't touch the Big Dipper!" ”
Deputy Commander Cha said: "The imagination of the ancients is also very rich, and it is extremely high! ”
The troops of the 118th Brigade drove first, and ran forward while gathering their troops, and after going down to the bottom of the beam, they heard the sound of the waves in front of them, and it turned out to be another big river. However, the river did not block the way, and Brigade Commander Wang Changjiu, Deputy Brigade Commander Chai Rongsheng, and Chief of Staff Chang'an and other commanders commanded the soldiers to march east along the road north of the river......
The commanders of the military headquarters came down from the half-beam, and they also heard the sound of water, and they all looked up and found the great river where the waves were constantly sounding. Director Han said in his heart, I don't complain that Jiao Cheng said that the next Yuciliang is the Yixun River, and it is true.
The water of the Esun River is so big! The Yixun River is second only to the Luan River, but there are more boats on the river and slender men on the shore. There are a lot fewer ships these days, and it's not that the Japanese are going to fight, but there are more boats...... Director Han thought of Luanhe from Yixun River, and from Luanhe to Jiaocheng. He was very relieved that with Jiao Cheng's enthusiasm, he would definitely become a nail nailed to the land of Jingoutun by the party organization.
The military headquarters waited a little on the banks of the River Ison to gather the troops that were constantly being driven down from the beams. The front departments kept rushing forward step by step. First, the landlords and leading figures of Hongqi Village came to work with the army, and they brought rice and coarse cloth, all of which were handed over to the troops who had just stayed by the river for the time being, so as to wait for the baggage regiment to come and load the carts and pull them away. The military headquarters walked ten miles forward, and the gentry of Baiqi Village came to visit on the side of the road......
According to the arrangement of the military headquarters, when the artillery brigade arrived at the Yixun River, it gathered its men and horses, hired boats to take the waterway, and went directly to the Dongmiao Palace in the enclosure......
On February 26, when the sun was about to set, the army rushed to Longhua after a rapid march.
The military headquarters drove into Chengtoudao Street in Longhua County with the guard regiment and found a neat grain store as a temporary headquarters. This grain store has three courtyards, the store and the backyard are the residences of the guard regiment, the main house in the front yard is used as the headquarters of the military headquarters, and the communication battalion is stationed in the wings on both sides...... As soon as the location was determined, the troops began to take up their work.
All units of the 118th Brigade stayed in Huojiao City, and each regiment of the Brigade found a relatively large courtyard as the regimental headquarters, and the houses of the common people were all given to the present ocean at the price. As soon as the people heard that they were going to resist Japan, they did not want money to take the initiative to vacate houses for the troops to live in, and other departments directly under the military headquarters were stationed in Erdao Street, Sandao Street, Heluo Battalion, Chaolianggou and Zhang San Battalion.
When the arrangements of various departments were ready and the food squad was already cooking, Ma Wanfa, commander of the 119th Brigade, sent a communications staff officer to make contact. After seeing Commander Sun, Staff Officer Zhang dismounted and saluted and said: "Report to Commander Sun, most of our 119 Brigade and all units of the Teaching Regiment have been stationed in Chengde, and after contacting the local garrison, the Brigade Headquarters intends to station the Fire Temple, and the Teaching Regiment is stationed in the Zhulin Temple, please ask the commander to instruct ......."
After the commanders of the military headquarters studied the map, Commander Sun gave an order to Staff Officer Zhang: "With the 119th Brigade and the Teaching Regiment of your department, camp according to your plan, start at dawn tomorrow, go to Qijia, Maojingba, Wangyedian, Wangyefu and Karaqin Banner (Grandpa's Mansion), and then pass Longshan and Niuyingzi, and advance to Tuchengzi, a major land in the south of Chifeng, and be sure to occupy positions and build fortifications under Tuchengzi and Nandaliang on the morning of the 28th......
Staff Officer Zhang wiped his sweat with a towel while receiving the order, and after finishing the handover with Chief of Staff Wang Zhushi, he returned to Chengde by the same route as soon as he was done, and conveyed the order to Ma Wanfa, Cheng Kuihua and Li Hatshui.
At first, the people of Longhua County saw that so many troops had come to Hulala, and for a time they occupied the burning city, and then occupied Erdao Street and Toudao Street, and there were constantly new troops to occupy the Naohai Camp and Heluo Battalion, and they were all a little frightened when they heard that there were still vanguard troops who had opened the Zhang Third Battalion and the Tang Third Battalion. There have long been well-informed large families who carry meals to the troops to deliver food, saying that this is the army that is going to resist Japan, and the common people are relieved
Come, start making room for the soldiers to boil water...... Others offered money, cloth and cotton......
When everyone was just about to finish eating, Zhang Laifu, a citizen of Xixiaojie, went to the army to cry out for grievances, and he said: "I beg the military master to avenge me......
This happens to be the location of the independent regiment, and Commander Wang Qiang was going to have a meeting, because a part of the troops was temporarily under the command of the 117th Brigade, so some military affairs needed to be arranged. As soon as he heard how someone had come to the army to complain about his grievances, his curiosity drove him to ask someone to tell him where the grievances were.
Zhang Laifu looked at this chief, a big man, a big man, a black beard and thick hair on his face, two big round eyes dripping and rolling, and said in a rough voice: "Come here to shout injustice, where are your parents here?" Okay, tell me how you were wronged first. ”
Zhang Laifu had long been frightened by him, and said incoherently: "Lord Commander, yes, that's the case, a few days ago, there were a few people at the west end of our street, and no one had ever seen the clothes they were wearing, with a cloth bag tied around their waists and wooden boards on their feet......
Come on, but they are not honest, they often bully the people, and when they see good-looking women, they do their hands...... Some people complained to the county government, but the clerk did not dare to provoke them, and they also waved long knives and said that the common people had hindered their actions, and they wanted to go to the Chengde Mansion to sue the clerk, saying that the clerk had not fulfilled his duty to protect the Japanese nationals. It turned out that they were Japanese, Japanese Lotus Sect monks...... My wife went out on the street yesterday and was touched and screwed by them......"
Commander Wang Qiang, Chief of Staff Xu Xinming, and several other commanders suddenly remembered that there had been people from Jiangsu in the headquarters, and they said that when Japan provoked the Shanghai Incident last year, it sent the monks of the Nichiren sect to make trouble, and then sent people from the Black Dragon Society to fan the flames behind them. In order to make the matter bigger, they also sent spies to pretend to be workers of the Shanghai yarn factory to fight with them, and when the matter became bigger, the military came out to attack Shanghai frantically on the grounds of China's provocation, which later evolved into Shanghai 12. Eight Incidents......
At this time, the communications battalion had already set up the telephone line, and Regiment Commander Wang grabbed the telephone and called the military headquarters, truthfully reported the situation to Commander Sun, asked whether he was involved, and asked for a way to deal with it.
All the ministers arrived, including Brigade Commander Ding Boting and Regiment Commander Zhu Zhongliang, who also rushed back to Longhua from the temple beam through Tang Sanying and Zhang Sanying to attend a meeting at the military headquarters, report on the camping matters, and discuss and accept the marching plan.
Shaking his bare head, pouting his mustache, and putting on a murderous face, Commander Sun announced that a meeting would be convened immediately to first study the matter reported by the independent regiment. Seeing that everyone had arrived, Commander Sun grabbed the armed belt in one hand and the mustache in the other, and there was a hint of a smile in his seriousness, and said to the commanders: "Just now, the head of the independent regiment called and said that a common man came to their regiment headquarters to complain and complain, and reported that several Japanese monks were doing evil in this small county, harming the people, and always molesting women......
I would like to hear your opinions. Our army is on the march, how should it be handled, and what do you think about this matter? ”
No one spoke for a while, and Brigadier Ding Boting shook his beard, and said in a voice that was neither humble nor arrogant: "According to their duties, the Japanese monks are by no means here to play, or they bully the people just to lead the sheep along the river, in fact, they have another purpose, that is, to collect intelligence for the Japanese invasion of Rehe." It's better to deal with them by military law. The Japanese here must be the same as the Japanese spies in Gubeikou Hexi that Old Man Bai said......"
Why did Ding Berting dare to say it first? Because he is a celebrity of Commander Sun, he has always been the same. At the same time, he must have a certain tone, and others can play according to his ideas and will not make big mistakes. If he doesn't say it first, others will have to think about it for a while.
As soon as Ding Boting's voice fell, Chief of Staff Wang Zhushi said: "My subordinates feel that these Japanese Lotus Sect monks are by no means just a few simple Japanese monks, if we summarily execute them, I am afraid that it will be a good word for the Japanese army who is trying to invade Rehe." Do you still remember that in the early summer of 1930, the head of the Northeast Reclamation Army, Guan Yuheng, executed Captain Nakamura and Jing Shan, who trespassed into the Xing'an Military Restricted Zone to spy on intelligence? Later, the Japanese spies got their hands on the relics of these two people, so they used this as an excuse to blackmail Zhang Xueliang's northeastern authorities and deliberately launched the September 18 Incident......"
Wang Changchang, commander of the 118th Brigade, said: "But if these Japanese monks are not executed, our actions will soon be known by the Japanese army, and our army will fall into a passive ......."
Zhu Zhongliang, head of the secret service group, said: "These Japanese monks must not be let go, and if they are allowed to go unpunished again, they will definitely endanger the local people." What's more, our army's movements were detected by the Japanese army......"
…………
The commanders expressed their opinions, you said a few words, I said a few words, and finally reached an agreement: several Japanese monks must be executed, one is to keep our army's actions secret, and the other is to eliminate a scourge for the local people...... But don't leave a single clue.
At this point, it is very clear. Commander Sun looked at Deputy Commander Cha and Advisor Li, stood up and said, "I order, a company from the reconnaissance battalion and a company from the guard regiment to form two search teams, led by Li Zhite and the second commander of Han Chu, to search all the Japanese monks, and not one of them can escape." You can't leave a trace of the execution at the time of execution, otherwise it will leave a future trouble, and I will ask you two ......"
The commander of the reconnaissance battalion, Li Zhite, and the commander of the guard regiment, Han Chuyi, shouted "yes" together. They all went back to the camp and gathered the soldiers. Chief of Staff Wang Zhushi chased after the door and said to them: "You two should go to the independent regiment first and count with Commander Wang, if each company is not manpowered, you can send some more men from the independent regiment." Let the one who shouted injustice and other people who have been bullied come forward to lead the way, and conduct a carpet search, and not let a monk get away.
In addition, our army has just arrived here and camped for less than an hour, the terrain is not yet familiar, and it is a black light, so you must take advantage of the revenge of the people, give full play to their strengths of familiar terrain, and see if there are any Japanese monks hidden elsewhere, so as to catch them all......."
After Chief of Staff Wang gave the order, Battalion Commander Li and Second Commander Han Saluted and hurriedly left with the guards. He turned back to the makeshift conference room
Commander Sun had already begun to speak, and he said: "After a day's rapid march, our unit has opened to Longhua, an important town outside the mouth. As far as I've observed, taxi
The morale of the soldiers has been very high. I think there are several reasons for this, one is because we are here to defend our family and the country and recover the rivers and mountains. The second is the Cadet Corps
Entering the ministries, a new morale and spirit affects every soldier. Third, a political training office has been set up at the regimental level, which has played a supervisory role...... Of course, all of this is thanks to Advisor Li and Director Han......"
Director Han looked at everyone shyly, and said with a smile: "Where is it, it is still Sun Junchang who governs the army strictly, and the generals and leaders are well-......."
Some generals also shouted there: "All thanks to Commander Sun......"
Commander Sun was very happy with Director Han's compliment, and said with a smile: "Director Han is serious......"
He went on to say: "The forward regiment of the 117th Brigade is stationed in Hutai, the rest of the units are stationed in Awl Mountain, the special service regiment is stationed in Miaogong and Siheyong, the first independent regiment (deputy commander Na Fengzhi) is stationed at the mouth of the Yixun River, and the first communication battalion is stationed in Siheyongxi, all under the command of the 117th Brigade; All units of the 118th Brigade were stationed in Huojiao City, most of the Independent Regiment was stationed in Toudao Street, and the rest of the troops directly under the army were stationed in Erdao Street, Sandao Street, Naohai Camp and Zhang Sanying; The 119th Brigade and the Teaching Regiment are stationed in the vicinity of the Fire Temple on Chengde Street......
All barracks and garrisons must pay attention to maintaining good relations with the people, and they are not allowed to take anything from other people's houses, and they must pay the ocean according to the price of their houses, which violates military law. In each barracks station, light and dark sentinels are discharged, and rest early. Tonight's intersectional order is "Reclaim the Rivers and Mountains".
As soon as he finished speaking, Deputy Army Commander Cha continued: "Through today's rapid march, we can see that the quality of our army has improved rapidly, and the speed of the march is a standard. Hopefully tomorrow morning, the commanders continued to encourage the soldiers and speed up the march. Tomorrow it will be dawn to eat, and it will be dawn to leave. According to the original plan, the 117th Brigade, one independent regiment, all the special service regiments, and one communications battalion set out from various garrisons to gather at Awl Mountain, and rushed north to the Yudao crossing...... The military headquarters led the 118th Brigade, the Artillery Brigade and the remaining units directly under it, and went east to Bianqiang Mountain and Malian Daoliangdong to ......"
Commander Sun looked at Deputy Commander Cha and finished speaking, looked up and asked Advisor Li what he said, Advisor Li said in a low-key manner No, Commander Sun was just about to say that the meeting was dismissed, the phone rang, and it was the head of the Han Division who called. He said: "Report to Commander Sun, our search team will take the villagers as a guide to inspect Longhua City, in addition to arresting six Japanese monks in Toudao Street, and also arresting four merchants dressed as Japanese in Naohai Camp. ”
Commander Sun shook his beard and said majestically: "Execute on the spot, no one can run away." The corpse's luggage and belongings were all burned, leaving no traces. Li Zhite, you two must personally monitor. After disposing of it, come back to your life. ”
When all the commanders heard that all the Japanese monks had been executed, they all breathed a bad breath, and with the order of the army commander, they all stood up and saluted, and went out of the house together, and returned to their headquarters. The 117 Brigade and the Special Service Regiment, the First Independent Regiment and the First Communications Battalion were all far away, and in the paddock, the brigade commander Ding Boting, the head of the special service regiment Zhu Zhongliang, the deputy commander of the independent regiment Na Fengzhi, and the deputy commander of the communications battalion Wang Zhiyuan all rushed back to the paddock.
The personnel of the military headquarters went to bed according to the arrangement of Chief of Staff Wang Zhushi. The voices outside were loud again, and the orderlies reported: "Report to the army commander, the person who went to deal with the Japanese monk has returned." ”
Li Zhite, the battalion commander who was not tall and walked loudly, could hear that killing the enemy was very happy, and even the soldiers standing outside had louder voices than before. Battalion Commander Li Zhite said loudly: "Report to the army commander, the Japanese monk has been executed by us, and there is not a single person left alive, and all the luggage, utensils and weapons have been burned and buried along with the corpses......
A few soldiers were there, saying, "Didn't you bring these greeting gifts back to the commander?" ”
Another voice said: "Let's go to kill Ben Chifeng, fight big battles and evil battles with devils, these devil ears, can the military commander see it, throw it away." ”
Listening to the hearty discussion of the soldiers, Li Zhite and the head of the Han Division, who entered the room head-on, exchanged glances, and stopped talking. As soon as Commander Sun saw that they seemed to have some secrets, he said, "Didn't you two clean up the provocative monks?" ”
The head of the Han Division, Zhengse, replied: "Yes, it has been cleaned up cleanly." ”
The battalion commander Li Zhite simply pulled the commander of the Han Division and said, "Commander, we cut off all the ears of the Japanese to get revenge on you......
Commander Sun was very angry when he heard this, and said: "Come to the bandits again, let you deal with it, what do you mean by keeping some ears?" What about leaving a handle for the Japanese? You show me to feed the countryman's dog, you have to eat it clean......"
They laughed, and stuck their tongues out in embarrassment.
