Chapter 471: Panic in my heart

The Yellow River, a river regarded as the mother river by the Chinese nation, has been relied on by countless ethnic groups and people to recuperate, also known as the blessing of the people. But this 'mother river' sometimes makes people along the river suffer from it.

The diversion and bursting of the Yellow River often displaces hundreds of people, and everything that has benefited from the Yellow River will be lost. From ancient times to the present, in order to control the floods of the Yellow River, countless emperors and governments have had a headache.

The Yellow Flood Area is synonymous with suffering, a place that once bred weeds and the dream of rebirth in the old garden. The battle of Xuzhou broke the embankment at the mouth of the garden, which eventually led to this word, which frightened hundreds of people, resurfaced in the eyes of the world.

After giving Bai Chongxi the vast majority of the weapons and ammunition seized from Lu'an to Bai Chongxi of the Fifth War Zone free of charge, Hu Biao immediately led the task force under his command along the border between Henan and Anhui provinces towards the Yellow Flood Area, where many people avoided snakes and scorpions.

For Hu Biao's action, I believe no one could have imagined it. When the Japanese learned that the mysterious unit that had hit the 13th Division was a mysterious force called the task force, Hu Biao and his troops had long since disappeared without a trace.

As the Japanese Special High School launched an investigation at all costs, the information finally uncovered shocked the entire Special High School and the generals of the Japanese Army. The reason is simple, the commander of the task force, counting them old acquaintances.

Looking at the information provided by the special high school, the new commander of the Central China Dispatch Army, Shunroku Hatata, was shocked and said: "Is the information reliable?" As far as I know, wasn't this officer of China wiped out by us in Jinling City? ”

"Your Excellency, this information is highly reliable. Earlier, our spy agents who were lurking in the government and army of China took the risk of being exposed, found out the number of this unit, and later found out the surname of the commander.

This information was also revealed by a senior official of the Shina government who surrendered to Cheng. According to him, this person is quite highly valued by the Shancheng side, and in order to ensure that his information is not leaked, the military command has repeatedly warned people in the know not to disclose any information to the outside world.

Secondly, earlier we had been investigating to no avail, and the commander of the special task force of the 10th Division was ambushed in the North China Battlefield, and this is also the commander. Unfortunately, that's all we can do about this person. ”

"Na? The defeat of the 10th Division is also related to this person? ”

"Based on the information gathered so far, it can be basically determined. It is precisely because of the presence of this unit that our divisional units have been repeatedly attacked. The railway in Zaozhuang was repeatedly interrupted before, and this guy should have done it! ”

Although the Battle of Wuhan was still ongoing, the Japanese army had consciously strengthened its rule and control over the occupied areas. In order to eliminate the hostility of the people in the occupied areas, the Japanese army also began to bribe some traitor spies and lure some government officials and generals to surrender.

With the surrender of these traitors, some information about the Nationalist Government and the National Army was also confessed. This time, the Japanese army was able to find out so much information about Hu Biao, also because a high-ranking official of the intelligence system chose to be a traitor.

After listening to the intelligence officer's report, Shunroku Hatata, who has always been concerned about the battle on the front line, said very directly: "Have you controlled the whereabouts of this army?" Is this unit still operating in the Lu'an area? ”

"Not so clear! According to the report of the intelligence station we deployed around Lu'an, after the 13th Division was severely damaged, this guy seems to have disappeared. It seems that a large number of weapons and ammunition captured by it were sent to the Chinese army that cooperated with the operation.

Although his whereabouts have not yet been discovered, based on the current intelligence analysis and the low-key and mysterious style of this person, we suspect that this guy may have infiltrated Wuhan and waited for an opportunity to sneak up on our combat troops behind his back. ”

Although this information is speculation, it still has a certain degree of credibility in terms of the information currently held by the special high school of the Japanese army. It is precisely because of this that the Japanese divisions and regiments that entered Wuhan also began to strengthen the security of the perimeter and logistics.

If the 10th Division was unlucky, it was more because it suffered the loss of a lone army. Then the 13th Division, which had just been hit hard and even had difficulty regaining its combat effectiveness in a short period of time, was crushed by heavy losses under a series of battles of the task force.

The most troublesome thing for the special high school and the Japanese generals is that they still don't know how many troops there are under Hu Biao's command. Some say that this is an elite army with a number of nearly a thousand, while others say that it is an elite force with a number of several thousand.

It is not clear how large the task force is, and those cautious Japanese generals can only increase the vigilance force to ensure that the troops can respond quickly after an attack and avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.

Correspondingly, after obtaining the permission of Shunroku Hatata, the reward order given to Hu Biao by the Special High School was promoted from 100,000 oceans to 500,000 oceans. Secondly, if you can provide more valuable information, you can get corresponding rewards and rewards.

Regarding the reward offered by the Japanese army's special high school, the military commander also quickly received the news, and Dai Li, who saw this information, couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "After all, let the little devil know that General Flying Fox is still alive!" ”

"They're all those damned traitors! Those guys should really be cut with a thousand cuts! ”

Officers and men who are qualified to know such secrets are without exception of a low rank. Correspondingly, the losses caused by their defection are often enormous. Very often, intelligence series are the first targets to be hit.

Looking at his subordinates who were full of anger, Dai Li sneered: "Don't worry, these traitors won't end well!" Even if we don't trouble him, General Flying Fox won't spare him easily. Send this information to General Flying Fox by secret telegram.

These guys really think that they will be safe if they escape to Jinling. Don't you know that Jinling is precisely the lair of General Flying Fox. Send a copy of the list of these traitors to General Flying Fox, and I'm sure he'll be happy to clear the portal for us! ”

"Yes, Bureau!"

Hu Biao, who had already arrived in the Yellow Flood Area and began to inspect the base area established in the Yellow Flood Area, received a secret telegram forwarded by the military commander, and sneered: "The little devil really looks up to Lao Tzu!" I was willing to pay such a bloody cost! ”

"Detachment leader, how to deal with this matter?"

"Send this list to the Jinling Action Group and ask it to contact Director Chen in Jinling, and I believe that the military commander will be happy to provide us with information about these traitors. Look for an opportunity to strike a thunderbolt and take out these traitors! ”

From the list given by Dai Li, it is not difficult for Hu Biao to see Dai Li's attempt to kill people with a knife. In the past, the military commander wanted Hu Biao to deal with these traitors, and he also needed to pay the corresponding labor fees, but this time he didn't have to spend money.

Although Hu Biao needs money more, in this kind of matter, Hu Biao does not mind giving free hands to solve some troubles for the military commander. The so-called 'traitors are punished for everything', and through this kind of assassination retaliation, it can also deter some people.

When the leaker is solved, Hu Biao will also let the military commander 'leak' the news, warning those who know that if they sell their intelligence to the Japanese army, they will let these people have their lives to take money and no lives to spend money!

This time, Hu Biao, who traveled north along the Henan-Anhui border and arrived in Yingzhou, the hardest-hit area of the Yellow River, also truly saw how tragic natural and man-made disasters were. Even if I experienced some scenes of flood fighting, rescue and disaster relief in my previous life, there is no comparison with this moment.

Although there were some natural disasters or floods that shocked the whole world in later generations, with the full organization of the government and the army, at least the victims could be fed and clothed. After the disaster, the government funded the reconstruction of the victims.

However, in such a war years, when the government has no time to take care of itself, it is almost impossible to rescue these affected people. Moreover, this flood was not a natural disaster, but was completely man-made.

Even the disaster relief team sent to the Yellow Flood Area earlier reported to Hu Biao about the situation in the disaster area. Compared with the short words in the telegram, compared with witnessing the tragic situation, the shock and impact brought to Hu Biao's soul cannot be compared at all.

From the mouths of some of the victims who fled, Hu Biao also learned more about the disaster. Before the Yellow River burst, some people received a subtle reminder that the little devils had hit the other side of the Yellow River and told them to leave their homes.

The problem is that for many people, the grain fields planted by many people in the Yellow River Flood Area before the Yellow River burst will be harvested in a few more days. Under such circumstances, how can the people be willing to flee their homes?

If the Yellow River burst its banks in previous years, most of them were due to natural disasters, and the Yellow River was diverted and burst due to heavy rains. So this man-made levee burst, many people did not notice and be vigilant before this.

Even many people, when the flood flooded into their homes, did not even have the slightest hope of escape, and were swept into the surging floodwater. Many villages, as the flood waters flowed down, disappeared completely. It is impossible to count the number of people who have disappeared and drowned.

The people who were lucky enough to pick up a life soon fell into a desperate situation. The floods washed away their homes and swept away their loved ones and belongings. These people, who have no money and no food, can only embark on the road of escape in the end, hoping for a glimmer of life.

Even when Hu Biao and his entourage arrived in the Yellow Flood Area, the flood that rushed down earlier had already receded. But many villages and towns were bulldozed or even buried in this flood. Those who can survive can be described as pitiful.

Some counties that were lucky enough to survive the flood have also become places where many surviving people are eager to survive. In short, after entering the Yellow Flood Area, Hu Biao heard the most words, which was to ask for a bite to eat, and what he saw the most were the fleeing victims.

What made Hu Biao extremely depressed was that many of the people who survived were cursing the little devils who caused this disaster. Even many young people, who joined the army because of this, will only take revenge and hatred, but they do not know the real culprit behind the breaking of the embankment.

It's a pity that even if Hu Biao knew, he didn't dare to say it at all. Because he knows that once these victims know who is the culprit who caused them to lose their relatives and homes, then the disaster caused by this will only be even greater!

Taking into account the overall situation, Hu Biao didn't understand the meaning of this sentence before, but now that he understands it, he feels panicked. Perhaps, as Hu Biao thought when he first crossed, this may be the true meaning of later generations often saying that people are like ants and their lives are like mustard!
