At this time, Qian Bojun was in his 1st Battalion headquarters and secretly met with Zheng Qianyi, the negotiator of Ichiro Hirata, the captain of the Japanese army's Heyuan military police.

Previously, Zheng Qianyi, as the secret envoy of Ichiro Hirata, the captain of the military police of Heyuan County, personally plotted against Qian Bojun, but Qian Bojun's price was too high, and the negotiations have not been smooth.

However, now with a direct telegram from Yoshio Shinozuka, Hirata Ichiro directly instructed Zheng Qianyi to secretly meet with Qian Bojun, the commander of the 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army, in Lijia Town, and agreed to Qian Bojun's request.

Qian Bojun was overjoyed, and said to Zheng Qianyi at his battalion headquarters at this time: "In the future, my brother will be the pawn of the imperial army!" The Imperial Army has orders, but they obey everything! ”。

"Haha, Camp Commander Zheng, no, it's Captain Zheng! Is your unit the 358th Battalion of the 1st Regiment of the Jinsui Army, or a reinforced battalion. Now that he has surrendered to the imperial army, he is bound to have a great future. Brothers also hope that Captain Zheng can bring one or two in the future! Zheng Qian squinted his eyes and smiled, sneering in his heart.

As Ichiro Hirata's envoy, he naturally understands the bottom line of the imperial army. As soon as he came to be the head of the regiment, how could it be? However, now that Qian Bojun's troops need to go north to block the more than 1,000 troops of the Eighth Route Army commanded by Li Yunlong from going south to Hongtao Mountain, they can only compromise temporarily.

"That's, that's nature! Hahaha! Qian Bojun, the traitor, laughed, not noticing the abnormality on Zheng Qian's face after he finished speaking.

At this time, Zheng Qianyi suddenly said: "Commander Zheng, now your first battalion has been reorganized into the first regiment of the Imperial Association Army, which is under the command of Chief Hirata!" At present, it is necessary to hold Lijia Town and wait for the military police of the Imperial Army to enter the station. As for the main force of the 1st Regiment of your department, I received an order from His Excellency Chief Shinozuka, the commander of the First Army of the Imperial Army, to contact the commander of the Itagaki Seishiro Division directly through the radio. At present, Li Yunlong's new regiment has entered the northwest of Shanxi from the mouth of the tiger under the command of Li Yunlong and his people, and now it has captured the mouth of the tiger, the right jade city, and galloped south to Weiyuan Fort and the Pinglu area! ”。

After a pause, Zheng Qianyi took out an order telegram and said to the stunned Qian Bojun: "Your Excellency Commander Shinozuka personally sent an order, ordering your unit to be reorganized into a regiment of the Imperial Association Army on the spot, leaving part of the troops to garrison Lijia Town, and the rest of the main force to arrive in Pinglu to assist Pinglu's Imperial Army to defend the city!" Block the troops commanded by Li Yunlong from going south to the mountains of Hongtao Mountain! ”。

"Obedience!" After Qian Bojun was dumbfounded, he realized that there was no reason to refuse. Otherwise, the Japanese army would not accept his surrender again.

What's more, although Li Yunlong was already famous at this time, he didn't have much time to contact Jin Suijun. In addition, the 1st Battalion of Qian Bojun's self-reliance department has more than 2,000 troops, and it is the main battalion of Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment, with strong soldiers and horses, and an artillery battalion with strong strength. It is more than enough to deal with the troops of the Eighth Route Army under Qian Bojun's cognition.

Therefore, after being stunned for less than a few seconds, Qian Bojun received the order. After all, this is also a letter of surrender to the other party after surrendering to the Japanese army!

"Well, while Chu Yunfei didn't know the news of your surrender to the Cheng Imperial Army, hurry up from Lijia Town to the north and enter Pinglu. According to the latest news about Li Yunlong's department, it is likely that his people have already led their troops to Weiyuan Fort at this time, and they are not far from Pinglu. Your unit is the closest unit to Pinglu, this is the time for your unit to prove its strength to the imperial army, Commander Zheng, hurry up! Zheng Qianyi said.

Qian Bojun had already gotten what he wanted from the Japanese envoy at this time, and immediately nodded and said, "Okay, raise troops to the north on the next horse and cooperate with the imperial army in Pinglu City to defend the city!" ”。

As a result, after Qian Bojun eliminated some officers and soldiers loyal to Chu Yunfei in Lijia Town, and then strictly sealed the news of the rebellion, he left some rebels to pretend to be stationed in Lijia Town, and the rest of the main rebel force of nearly 2,000 people went north under the command of Qian Bojun.

At this time, in the headquarters of the 358th Regiment not far from Lijiazhen, Chu Yunfei did not know at all that his main battalion had rebelled and surrendered to the Japanese army.

Whew, beautiful dividing line********************

Weiyuan Fort, a battlefield after a fierce battle, is full of dead Japanese corpses. Stumps and severed arms, blood all over the ground, everywhere.

He Yongjie commanded the four battalions of the post headquarters with lightning speed, under the cover of Wang Chengzhu's artillery fire, besieged on all sides, coordinated with infantry and artillery, and cleanly annihilated the Japanese troops in the stronghold of Weiyuanbao.

Previously, when Youyucheng was recovered by Li Yunlong's troops and went south, a few remnants of the Japanese army in Youyu, who were lucky enough to survive, called the devils in the nearby Japanese strongholds to warn.

Therefore, the Japanese troops at Weiyuan Fort had already strengthened their vigilance a few minutes before Li Yunlong commanded the troops to enter Weiyuan Fort. It's just that the Japanese army in Weiyuan Fort is full of battles, plus some Japanese soldiers or something, the total strength is only more than 80 people.

Under the siege of He Yongjie's fourth battalion of nearly 400 superior troops, it could be completely annihilated in less than five minutes.

"Regiment commander, the Japanese army in Weiyuan Fort has been completely annihilated, counting 82 Japanese troops in Weiyuan Fort and killing 7 officers below the rank of one Japanese squad leader! 73 Type 38 rifles and one light machine gun were captured! Countless ammo! ”

In front of Li Yunlong, He Yongjie, the commander of the fourth battalion, reported to him with a smile.

Li Yunlong was already standing in Weiyuan Fort at this time, looked around the battlefield, and said, "Weiyuan Fort should not stay for a long time!" Let's move on to the Pinglu attack! Little devil, it won't be for long for us! ”。

"Yes, Captain!"

He Yongjie nodded and said.

After the first battle of Weiyuan Fort, Li Yunlong did not stop and marched to Pinglu, not far south of Weiyuan Fort.

On the way to the rapid march, Li Yunlong encouraged everyone to speed up and arrive at the city of Pinglu. At this time, the intelligence officers lurking in Fengzhen and Sun Desheng, who feinted to attack Liangcheng and other places, sent a secret telegram to Li Yunlong not long ago, and the main force of the Japanese Itagaki Division had retreated south.

Therefore, Li Yunlong must dare to capture Pinglu during the time when Itagaki Seishiro's main force is chasing after his own division again.

Since Lijia Town was less than eight minutes away from Pinglu City, the main rebel army under Qian Bojun quickly moved north from Lijia Town and entered Pinglu City before Li Yunlong and others.

The intelligence personnel of the Eighth Route Army in Pinglu City were in contact with the units of the Eighth Route Army, and at this time, the situation of Li Yunlong and others entering the northwest of Shanxi from the mouth of the killing tiger was also known to the internal intelligence personnel of the Eighth Route Army.

Therefore, soon the intelligence personnel of the Eighth Route Army in Pinglu City directly contacted Li Yunlong's communications troops through the radio frequency, and reported to Li Yunlong the changes in the enemy's strength in Pinglu City at this time.

Nearly eight minutes away from Pinglu City, Li Yunlong received a report from the communications corps accompanying the army.

"The troops stopped advancing, let Zhang Dabiao and others come to discuss the military situation!" Li Yunlong pinched the urgent telegram handed over by the communication soldier, his face sank, and then he said.

Soon, Zhang Dabiao and others gathered around Li Yunlong.

"According to the top-secret emergency telegram from our army's intelligence officers in Pinglu City, the Qian Bojun Department of the 1st Battalion of the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army in Lijia Town has defected to the little devils, and now the main force of the rebels is secretly stationed in Pinglu City!"
