Chapter Seven: Man Jianghong (Nine Middle School)
Chapter 7 Man Jianghong (Ninth Middle School)
"Don't worry, if you want to die, I will only die on the battlefield of resistance against Japan!" Huang Chensong shook his head, not taking Feng Anbang's exhortation too seriously. At present, the 26th Route is almost the closest branch of the Northwest Army to the central government, and it is also the one that fights the Japanese most fiercely. Whether from the perspective of setting an example for several other branches of the Northwest Army, or from the perspective of reassuring all the anti-Japanese soldiers, the central government should not let Sun Lianzhong and Feng Anbang, the two souls of the 26th Road, have any accidents. Unless, on the side of the central government, from top to bottom, are idiots.
Feng Anbang wanted to persuade again, but before he could think of appropriate words, several hurried figures suddenly appeared not far away. The short man who was supported among them both knew each other, and it was the political commissar of the Eighth Route Army who was injured by the Japanese plane and was entrusted by the Niangziguan Front Command to take care of the 26th Route Medical Battalion.
Su Xing also saw Feng Anbang and Huang Chensong, was stunned, took the initiative to raise his hand, and saluted the two chiefs with the courtesy of his subordinates. Feng Anbang and Huang Qisong hurriedly returned the salute, and the moment they raised their arms, they found that a large piece of wet chest on their awakened chests was faintly bright red from under their clothes.
Although he had fought with the Eighth Route Army in the Jiangxi battlefield for life and death, Feng Anbang still held his arm and sighed with pity, "Oh, Brother Su, what are you doing here?" Your injuries haven't been sealed yet, how dare you run around! ”
"Well, it was already almost the same, but just now when I walked a little faster, a little blood oozed out again. But it shouldn't be a big deal, I don't feel any pain at all! Su Xing glanced down at his wet chest and replied nonchalantly.
"This is careless, you'd better go in and find Camp Commander Li to check the wound. Clean up when it's time to clean it up, and re-suture it when it's time to re-stitch it. Don't be too anxious to get off the ground, you are not the only commander of the Eighth Route Army. Getting your body well earlier is better than anything else. Feng Anbang didn't want to fall into the hands of outsiders who refused to treat friendly generals wholeheartedly, shook his head, and suggested very sincerely.
"Yes, Lao Su, this must not be sloppy!" Huang Qisong also patted the other party's shoulder and kindly reminded him.
"No, I'll take some anti-inflammatory drugs and just wipe them myself. Thank you for your concern! Su Xing smiled and shook his head slightly. It just so happens that the two commanders are here, so I will resign to you directly. There is a car going to the headquarters of the 120th Division at the front staff, and I am going to go through the discharge procedures now, and then go to the staff to hitchhike! These days, thanks to the care of the 26th Road Commanders, the subordinates have nothing to repay, so they have to kill a few more devils on the battlefield......"
Halfway through the polite words, Feng Anbang and Huang Chensong's brows had already wrinkled into a big pimple, "In such a hurry, could it be that there is something important on your 120th Division?!" ”
"It shouldn't be a ......," Su Xing instinctively said perfunctorily, but soon, he closed his mouth again. Some words are really inconvenient for him to say from the mouth of a regiment-level cadre, especially since the other party once fought a bloody battle with the Eighth Route Army in Jiangxi. However, if he deliberately concealed it, he felt that he could not bear his conscience. Moreover, the hatred between the two sides has been announced to be put down, and they are working together to resist the Japanese invaders at this moment.....
"Something big is wrong!" "At present, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army is verifying, and within two hours, the specific situation will be reported to the front-line command and the second theater command." The 77th Regiment of our 129th Division was ordered to garrison Shimen Pass, and as soon as we arrived at the position, we encountered a large number of Japanese troops. After holding out for a day and night, he was forced to break through. The head of the 77th Regiment, Shen Chongdao, lost contact, and the political commissar Guo Xiao was seriously injured! ”
"Ahh When did it happen?! "How so?!" Feng Anbang and Huang Qisong were taken aback and exclaimed directly. Although the equipment of the Eighth Route Army is extremely poor, its combat effectiveness is very strong. At least, in the eyes of the two of them, they are inseparable from the elite troops of the 26th Army. If even an integrated regiment of the Eighth Route Army was broken up by the Japanese army that suddenly appeared in the defensive battle, and the other two troops rushed to support Lao Gou and them, I am afraid that it would be more than auspicious at this moment. (Note 1)
"It was yesterday evening and this morning!" Su Xing thought about it for a while, and responded with a red face, "Our regiment discovered the Japanese army on the march, and was in a hurry to seize the advantageous terrain to block the attack, so it was too late to report to the headquarters. After the radio station was set up in the second half of the night, it was discovered that the equipment was too old to successfully transmit messages in the mountainous areas. They could only send soldiers to cross the enemy's defense line at the risk of death, and run back on foot to deliver the letter. However, the 129th Division has made every effort to remedy it, and I believe that it will soon be able to deliver the most detailed battle report to the front-line headquarters! ”
"I didn't mean that, your Eighth Route Army's movements are fast enough!" Feng Anbang waved his hand and interrupted loudly. He has seen many examples of armies of different factions concealing the true battle situation from each other for the sake of face and future development, and it is very rare for the Eighth Route to report to the front-line headquarters the next day without concealing the defeat of the Eighth Road. "What I want to ask is, where did the old devil Kawagishi get the marching route of your Eighth Route Army? And where did the army come from? ”
"I'm afraid the first question will have to be investigated by the people of the front command!" Su Xing gritted his teeth, and there was obviously a bit of anger on his face. "Our marching route, except for the 129th Division itself, was reported to the front command!"
I'm afraid no one can find a specific answer to this question. Some time ago, the little devil was like giving birth to clairvoyance and ears, and he had a clear grasp of the movements of the Chinese army. As a result, the armies of all walks of life are always passively beaten, and every step they take, they will fall into the trap arranged by the Japanese army in advance. It wasn't until Huang Qiaosong and Lao Gou took advantage of Deputy Commander Huang's return to Taiyuan to ask for instructions that they suddenly went crazy and put all the personnel in the headquarters under house arrest, that this damn situation was slightly alleviated.
However, among those who were placed under house arrest, there were those brought by Deputy Commander Huang himself from the Gui family, those sent by Governor Yan of the Second War Zone, and those who came to observe on behalf of the central government.
"As for the second question, which I just wanted to remind the two commanders, according to the information sent back by the soldiers of my 77th Regiment, the little devil is playing the banner of the 14th Division, and the devil who fought with the 77th Regiment of our department is about an infantry brigade and an artillery squadron, and the attack power is extremely strong!" After a pause, he woke up and solemnly added.
Reinforcements have actually come from the devil's side! And unconsciously, it has already opened under the noses of the Chinese army! Feng Anbang and Huang Qisong gasped, and the hairs on their bodies stood on end.
No wonder when he woke up and heard the news, he was so excited that his wound burst. Changing the two of them and Awakening is probably also the result of a blood-stained garment. With the arrival of the devil's reinforcements, the idea of completely annihilating the 20th Division of the Japanese Army has become a big joke. Now what the front-line general command needs to consider is not to copy the back road of the 20th Division of the Japanese Army, but to use the fastest speed to retreat all the brothers who were scattered out, shrink and hold on, so as not to give the devil a chance to break through the defense line of Niangzi Pass again!
Thinking of this, Feng Anbang couldn't care about retaining the awakening anymore. Arching his hand at the other side, he immediately jumped on his horse and galloped towards the front headquarters. Huang Chensong is his subordinate, there is no need to follow the commander everywhere, before rushing to the 79th Brigade station, he turned his head from his horseback, looked at his awakened eyes, and solemnly requested: "This news, before the general headquarters makes arrangements, don't let more people know about it." Especially on the side of the medical battalion, Battalion Commander Li finally pulled the wounded back from the Ghost Gate, and we can't let their injuries recur! ”
"Yes!" Su woke up and saluted and solemnly promised. Even without Huang Chensong's reminder, he would not have spread the news to a wider audience. That violated the discipline of the Eighth Route Army and his principles of doing things.
After returning to the officer's ward, he packed his belongings with the help of the guards and prepared to go to the discharge process. Zhang Songling had just finished eating, and when he saw that he woke up and walked in such a hurry, he felt so strange in his heart. After thinking about it, he asked with a smile: "Isn't the commander still going to discuss with me how to deal with the Japanese army?" Why are you in such a hurry and leaving?! ”
"The army has encountered some trouble, and I can't rest assured." Su Xing sighed and pretended to be calm, "But I think the two of us will have another chance to get together again in the future." Anyway, your 26th Route Army and our Eighth Route Army have already abandoned their previous suspicions, and you can walk back and forth at any time! ”
"That's right!" Zhang Songling smiled and echoed in a low voice. The other party's face was very solemn when he spoke, and I was afraid that it was not a small trouble. But as a friend who has just met for less than half a day, he is not qualified to ask more questions, so he can only pretend to be confused.
"I mean really!" Su Xing hesitated for a moment, took out a worn-out five-pointed star from his personal pocket, and put it next to Zhang Songling's pillow, "We are poor, you taught me so many things just now, I can't have nothing in return!" You have this five-pointed star, and if you need my help in the future, send someone to take it to the Eighth Road to find me. As long as I can, I will never refuse! ”
"Sir is so polite!" Zhang Songling hurriedly refused, but he didn't give him a chance to return the gift, put his arm on the guard's shoulder, and left as fast as possible. Walking far away, there is still this person's hearty laughter in the air.
Note 1: In the official history, this battle took place in Qiqian Village, Chen Zaidao's regiment met the enemy in a hurry, and won a small victory with tenacious perseverance, but then because the headquarters was attacked by the devil's elite soldiers at night, it was defeated.
