On the evening of October 23, Qiao Xinyu sat on a stool, holding the table with his hands a little nervous, Lin Junxiong left, he knew what he meant, and wanted to let himself end the battle of Pseudo-Tonghua, further establish his position in the hearts of the soldiers of the New First Army, and prepare for the next step of the New First Army to disperse and act independently after it grows stronger.

He accepted Lin Junxiong's love in his heart, and secretly decided to put away the end of the pseudo-Tonghua battle, and now he is waiting, waiting for information from all over the place, waiting for the best time to attack.

Shen Yushan walked in excitedly, "Political commissar, it's done." Shangguan Yingwei eliminated nearly two divisions of the devils in the Longgang Mountains, it is impossible for Kasahara Yukio to be able to rush to Tonghua Province, Zeng Lingshan also disabled the devil reinforcements in Rehe Province in Dongfeng County, and the Jijun has arrived at the designated position with the second column, and the Weishan Division has just arrived in Tonghua County. ”

Qiao Xinyu stood up excitedly, "Yushan, just follow the order we discussed." Diao Yongyun bit the Weishan Division, and the relay army moved closer to ten kilometers, Lao Zhao and Wang Qingtian immediately took control of Tonghua City, and the guerrilla troops in Liuhe County and Hailong County were ready to block the Japanese army's northward escape. ”

The storm is coming, but Tonghua City seems to be unusually calm, and the security work in the city Yoshioka Tatsuno was handed over to Sato Shouren, and Sato Shouren only had one squadron of troops, two Imperial Association Corps to assist in the defense, one regiment commander was called Wang Qingtian, and the other was called Luo Jiahui.

Due to the disappointing combat effectiveness of the various Imperial Allied forces in recent operations, Yoshioka Tatsuno only brought two Imperial Allied Corps as cannon fodder in this sortie, Wang Qingtian and Luo Jiahui were the old troops of Ryuichiro Kishitani before, and he had never dared to use it with confidence, for fear of bringing trouble to himself on the battlefield, and the reason why he dared to rest assured and boldly left only one squadron of Sato Shouren in the city was because the large army was only twenty or thirty kilometers away from Tonghua City, and if there was any situation, he could rush back in less than an hour.

It was already one o'clock in the morning, and the lights were still on in a room on the fourth floor of Dongsheng Club in Tonghua City, and two people wrapped in black at the gate knocked on the closed door.

The man opened the door, let the two in, and looked cautiously to the left and right before closing the door.

"Xiao Li, don't be nervous, the two nearby streets are being monitored by someone we have arranged." One of the men in black took off his hood and said with a smile.

"Head Wang, why didn't you say it earlier, the president is waiting for you on the fourth floor, who is this?" Xiao Li asked, pointing to another man in black who was still wrapped in a hood.

"Oh, he, I'll explain to Lao Zhao in person later, it's a surprise I gave to Brother Zhao, but I don't know if it will scare him."

Xiao Li didn't ask much, and led the two to the lighted room on the fourth floor.

"Head Wang, it's really a last resort to let you come late at night, please forgive me." Lao Zhao warmly shook Wang Qingtian's hand and said hello.

Since Ryuichiro Kishitani left, Wang Qingtian could not get the trust of Yoshioka Tatsuno, and often felt that he had become a traitor and could not turn back, and the Japanese had such an attitude, after being learned by Lao Zhao in the Imperial Army, Lao Zhao personally went to persuade as the person in charge of Tonghua Province of the Communist Party of China, Wang Qingtian was very excited about this opportunity to be a new man, and promised to change his mind and follow the party.

Lao Zhao called himself late at night, there must be something big, Wang Qingtian asked excitedly: "Brother Zhao, is it time to act?" ”

Lao Zhao nodded, "Come, let's sit down and talk slowly." ”

"Great, I finally waited for this moment, I have been suffocated to death in the past few months, seeing that Tonghua and Jian Island are about to be recovered, but I haven't made an inch, I'm anxious, Brother Zhao."

"I promised you that the past will not be pursued, Secretary Li Shili of the South Manchurian Provincial Party Committee personally gave instructions, you can rest assured, GCD people are credible, huh? Law Ka Fai! Lao Zhao inadvertently turned around and found that the man in black who came with Wang Qingtian didn't know when he had taken off his hat, it was really Luo Jiahui, the head of another imperial army in Tonghua City, Lao Zhao looked at him in surprise.

"Brother Zhao don't be surprised, Brother Jiahui is here to surrender to us."

Lao Zhao relaxed a little, beckoned the two to sit down, but there was a fierce struggle in his heart, if Luo Jiahui surrendered, then it would be easier to control Tonghua City, and it would be easier to complete the task assigned by Qiao Xinyu this time, but this Luo Jiahui has always been cold-faced, and he is ruthless in doing things, will he sincerely surrender?

"Comrade Lao Zhao, I know that you have a grudge against what I did in the past, and I am also very ashamed of what I did in the past, but please believe me, I did not do things like the outside world said to lose my conscience, it was just the Japanese who cut off my back road and spread rumors, many things were done by the Japanese, and the blame was placed on me, this point, Brother Qingtian can testify for me." Luo Jiahui explained nervously.

Lao Zhao looked at Wang Qingtian, Wang Qingtian first let out a long sigh, and then said: "Brother Zhao, people have to bow their heads under the eaves, Jiahui is the same as me, many things are forced, he has always been silent, and no one understands him, until a few days ago at a drinking party, he was drunk and pulled me to say a lot of heartfelt words, I didn't know what he really thought in his heart." Speaking of which, I also want to thank him, there is an adjutant next to me who couldn't withstand the temptation of Sato Shouto and almost turned back, but fortunately he was discovered by Brother Jiahui and secretly helped me get rid of it, and he found out that I took refuge in you. ”

Lao Zhao frowned, if this Luo Jiahui has the heart to take refuge, why don't he come over early, come to take refuge at this juncture, if he is a little careless, it may have a very adverse impact on the end of the pseudo-Tonghua battle of the New First Army.

Luo Jiahui seemed to know Lao Zhao's doubts, he said slowly: "My father is Luo Zhenbang, the puppet director of the Manchukuo State Administration of Posts and Telecommunications, who has been enduring humiliation and secretly working for the Japanese, few people in the outside world know that I am his son, and he resigned and returned to Yanji County on the grounds of old age two months ago. ”

Lao Zhao thought about it and stood up, "Commander Luo, please forgive me, this matter is very important, I need to confirm it." ”

Luo Jiahui immediately told Lao Zhao the details of his father Luo Zhenbang's residence and other details, and Lao Zhao came back with a relaxed face after going out for half an hour, "Commander Luo, welcome to join the New First Army, our party comrades have been talking deeply with your father, Secretary Li Shili, Commander Lin Junxiong, and Political Commissar Qiao Xinyu asked me to welcome you on their behalf." ”

Luo Jiahui burst into tears with excitement, "Thank you for believing in me, it is useless to say more, I will express my loyalty with practical actions, and I want to be an upright Chinese." ”

Lao Zhao immediately conveyed the order issued by Political Commissar Qiao Xinyu to several of his people in the three-vertical and three-encirclement battle plan: "Our task is to first clean up the inside of the team, and this matter will be completed when the two of you go back tonight." At ten o'clock tomorrow morning, destroy Sato Toshito's squadron, completely control Tonghua City, and cut off Yoshioka Tatsuno's retreat. ”

"Shall we go to war?" Luo Jiahui knew at a glance that he wanted to make meritorious contributions.

Lao Zhao smiled and said: "Commander Luo's mood of wanting to make contributions is understandable, rest assured, everything is in the hands of Political Commissar Qiao, we only need to ensure that the remnants of Yoshioka Longye's army cannot escape from the area of Tonghua City, even if this mission is completed."

Luo Jiahui nodded a little embarrassedly, and the three of them chatted briefly for a while before preparing to go.

Aoyama Lingmu was depressed, and the five columns of the new 1st Army behind him kept a distance of two kilometers all the way, if it weren't for Yoshioka Tatsuno letting him rush to Tonghua City as quickly as possible, he would have wanted to turn around and fight to the death with this hateful fly behind him.

Tomorrow will arrive at the destination, and when the time comes, he will definitely ask Yoshioka Tatsuno for reinforcements to eliminate them, but thinking about the battle of Nanzamu Mountain and the destruction of the two divisions, he couldn't help but shudder, it has only been a few years, how can the combat effectiveness of the new First Army develop to such a terrifying.

Qinglong Yuanshan is not much better, since he went around to the north of Guandao Ridge, he always has a feeling of being alone, feeling that he is being watched all around, this feeling makes him terrified, Yoshioka Tatsuno called and said that the attack will be launched at noon tomorrow, I hope everything goes well, and this battle will end as soon as possible.

Yoshioka Tatsuno and Yuki Sakura Manka sat in a private house, which was less than five kilometers away from Guandaoling, and according to reconnaissance reports, more than 10,000 people of the New First Army on Guandao Ridge were still there, and the Oyama Division regiment that rushed from Xinbin County reported that more than 10,000 people of the New First Army's five columns were behind them.

All kinds of signs from previous reconnaissance show that Lin Junxiong, Qiao Xinyu, and Shen Yushan, the three supreme commanders of the New First Army, are all on Guandao Ridge, and this news makes Yoshioka Tatsuno feel like a chicken, as long as this battle is won, the top commanders of the three New First Army will be eliminated, and the New First Army will collapse, which can not only reverse the predicament of Tonghua Province in one fell swoop, but also establish dazzling feats.

Lin Junxiong couldn't sleep, the news of the heroic sacrifice of Twilight made Cai Yuexiu silently hug Yuluo and cry for a long time, Yuluo seemed to know something from her grandmother's grief, crying sadly, while comforting Cai Yuexiu, Yuluo's sensibility made Lin Jun's ambition like a knife.

Mother finally fell asleep, Lin Junxiong was still worried about the battle situation in the pseudo-Tonghua Province, after all, it was the first time Qiao Xinyu independently commanded such a big battle, and three columns participated. He has a more far-reaching consideration in his heart, after the battle of pseudo-Tonghua, the new army needs to be separated for a large-scale battle, which can deter the columns and twist their hearts together, Lin Junxiong hopes that in addition to himself, there will be Qiao Xinyu.

Qiao Xinyu also couldn't sleep over and over, there was a decisive battle tomorrow, and with the title of political commissar, he must complete this battle beautifully. He went through all the deployments in his heart, and although he gave repeated orders for the coordination and coordination of various columns, the rapid changes in the battlefield still needed to be adjusted in a timely manner.

What day will October 24 be?

Yoshioka Tatsuno hopes that it will be a sunny day with a blood sun shining high, and the red of the sun is dyed red by the blood of the New First Army.

Qiao Xinyu also hopes that it will be a sunny day, and since tomorrow, the pseudo-Tonghua Province will return to the leadership of the party, showing a clear and clear sky.
