Chapter 973: Fight a Winning Battle
When Jia Yunshan and Li Shouwei led their troops to Funing, they only saw Liu Zongwei's guard regiment, Xu Rui and the wolf tooth brigade led by him had long since disappeared, and Han Deqin was also gone. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Li Shouwei asked Liu Zongwei: "Head Liu, where is the general seat?" ”
Liu Zongwei reported: "Let Xu Rui's wolf teeth be hijacked." ”
"Hijacked?" Li Shouwei was disappointed, so he immediately took advantage of the question and said, "What are you doing to eat?" A reinforced regiment of more than 5,000 people can't deal with just a few dozen people in the wolf's tooth brigade? Even the head seat was hijacked by them? I don't think you, the head of the regiment, should do it, so let's let Xian do it as soon as possible. ”
Liu Zongwei drooped his head and didn't say a word.
Jia Yunshan was more concerned about another question, asking, "How long have they been gone?" ”
"It's going to be more than two hours." Liu Zongwei replied honestly, "I left before dawn." ”
When Jia Yunshan and Li Shouwei heard this, they immediately let out a sigh, and they had been walking for more than two hours, which meant that Xu Rui and his wolf tooth brigade had almost entered the defense area of the New Fourth Army, even if they hadn't entered it now, it was too late, anyway, it would be too late for them to chase after them now.
However, if Jia Yunshan and Li Shouwei want to give up such a good opportunity, they are unwilling no matter what, if they miss this opportunity, God knows when they will have the opportunity to become military commanders.
At that moment, Jia Yunshan and Li Shouwei exchanged glances, and then ordered to pursue at full speed.
Jia Yunshan and Li Shouwei thought so, they would definitely not be able to catch up, but they would have to chase to Yongfeng Town, and annihilate one or two of their regiments before the main force of the New Fourth Army had not yet completed the assembly, so that the New Fourth Army might kill Han Deqin in anger, and as long as Han Deqin died, their goal would be achieved.
So, Jia Yunshan and Li Shouwei tacitly led their troops to kill Yongfeng Town.
At this time, Xu Rui, the Wolf Tooth Brigade, and the Flying Tigers had already returned to Yongfeng Town first.
When Chen Yi heard that Xu Rui not only rescued their people and recaptured all the donkey skins, but also captured Han Deqin, deputy commander-in-chief of the Sulu Theater and commander of the 89th Army, he hurriedly led people to meet him.
After meeting, Chen Yi exchanged a few words with Han Deqin, then pulled Xu Rui aside and whispered: "I said Xiao Xu, you brought me a hot potato this time, where is this Han Deqin, should I kill or let go?" If I kill it, the situation will be complicated, but if I let it go, won't it be a tiger returning to the mountain? ”
Compared with Wanxiangyun and the like, Han Deqin can still fight, and he can barely be regarded as a tiger.
Xu Rui said: "Commander Chen, I have an idea, but it is not very mature, and I want to discuss it with you." ”
Chen Yi was immediately interested, and said, "I have long heard that your little Xu is scheming, tell me quickly, what kind of ghost idea have you thought of again?" ”
Xu Rui asked, "Commander Chen, what is the biggest threat facing the Northern Jiangsu Military Region?" ”
"Then you don't need to talk about it." Chen Yi said without thinking, "Of course, it's the Ninth Division stationed in Huaiyin, and the Devil's Ninth Division is like a bone and a throat for us." ”
Since the Japanese Ninth Division was disabled in the Battle of Xuzhou, it withdrew from the front-line troops, and has been stationed in Huaiyin since then to recuperate, and now it has been directly transferred to the local security force, responsible for the public security and anti-regular war in northern Jiangsu, and its main task is to eliminate the New Fourth Army and the regular army of the National Army entrenched in northern Jiangsu.
It's just that the focus of the Central China Dispatch Army's operations has been on the frontal battlefield offensive, so it has not invested too many resources in the northern Jiangsu battlefield, and later the Central China Dispatch Army has concentrated all its efforts to carry out the second sweep of Dameishan, and the Northern Jiangsu battlefield has also not received enough attention, so in general, the Ninth Division is on the defensive in northern Jiangsu, but taking a defensive position does not mean that the Japanese army has not acted, and the Ninth Division is still gradually advancing with the cooperation of the puppet army.
It was precisely in response to the encroachment policy of the Ninth Division that the Northern Jiangsu Military Region placed the main force in the direction of Huaiyin, which gave Han Deqin's 89th Army the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and unexpectedly occupy Funing, the headquarters of the Northern Jiangsu Military Region.
After a pause, Chen Yi continued: "If it weren't for the Ninth Division of the Devils, I would have transferred back the ten main regiments of our Northern Jiangsu Military Region a long time ago, and would I still be able to tolerate Han Deqin's 89th Army rampant to this day?" ”
Xu Rui then asked: "Commander Chen, this time Han Deqin's 89th Army is clearly in linkage with the devils, you transfer the main force of the military region back to deal with Han Deqin's 89th Army, so can't the devils in the Huaiyin direction take advantage of the weakness?" When the time comes, the Northern Jiangsu Military Region will be attacked by the enemy, and the situation will become very passive. ”
"yes, but there's no way." Mr. Chen Yi said, "We can only let the militia in each county take the lead for a while, and then we will turn back to deal with the Ninth Division after we have cleaned up Han Deqin's 89th Army." ”
Xu Rui said: "The commander never thought of joining forces with the 89th Army and giving the Ninth Division a ruthless blow? ”
"Join forces with the Eighty-Ninth Army?" Mr. Chen Yi waved his hand and said, "This is impossible, Xiao Xu, you don't know, Han Deqin is a diehard, he would rather give up his territory to the little devil than give us the New Fourth Army, just say that this friction, Commander-in-Chief Yu Xuezhong of the Sulu Theater is actually against it, but Han Deqin is still bent on going his own way." ”
Xu Rui said: "At this time and that time, Han Deqin may be a diehard, but he is by no means a person with firm political beliefs, people like Han Deqin value their own net worth and life more than their political position, if he is allowed to choose between his life and his insistence on anti-communism, I believe he will definitely choose the former!" ”
"Let him choose between his life and his insistence on the anti-zone?" Chen Yi said suddenly, "Are you saying that in order to save his net worth, Han Deqin must cooperate with our New Fourth Army?" ”
Xu Rui smiled and said, "I'm afraid that's the case." ”
(Dividing Line)
Xu Rui and Chen Yi were whispering on the side, and while the two were talking, they also glanced at Han Deqin from time to time, and Han Deqin's heart hung up.
At this moment, to say that Han Deqin is not worried or afraid, it is absolutely false.
Because the grievances between Han Deqin and the Communist Party can be traced back to the third and fifth encirclement and suppression of the Central Soviet Region by the Nationalist Army, in which Han Deqin participated in both encirclements and suppressions.
Although on the way here, Xu Rui repeatedly promised that he would not kill him, but Han Deqin did not believe it at all.
First, Xu Rui is a guest, and he can't be the master of the Northern Jiangsu Military Region of the New Fourth Army, and secondly, the ghost knows if what Xu Rui said is true or false?
Therefore, every time Xu Rui and Chen Yi's eyes swept over, Han Deqin's heart would beat with a pop, and he couldn't help but wonder, were the two discussing how to kill him?
Therefore, when Xu Rui and Chen Yi came together, Han Deqin felt that his legs were a little weak, and his state of mind was similar to that of a death row prisoner waiting to be executed.
Then, when Xu Rui came over to untie himself, Han Deqin almost knelt down, don't kill me!
However, what Xu Rui said next made Han Deqin's tense nerves immediately relaxed.
Xu Rui loosened the tie to Han Deqin, and then said: "Commander-in-Chief Han, you have been wronged along the way, and now you are free." ”
Han Deqin said suspiciously: "Head Xu, do you mean I can go?" ”
"Of course, you're free, and no one will stop you if you want to." Xu Rui said with a smile.
When Han Deqin heard this, he subconsciously walked forward, walked a few steps, and found that Xu Rui really didn't stop him, so Han Deqin immediately sped up his pace, but at this moment, Xu Rui suddenly shouted: "Wait." ”
Han Deqin immediately paused, and the look on his face immediately collapsed, sure enough.
Xu Rui slowly walked up to Han Deqin and asked with a smile, "Commander-in-Chief Han really went back like this?" ”
The muscles on Han Deqin's face trembled, and he said astringently, "I don't know what else Captain Xu has to teach?" ”
"I don't dare to be taught." Xu Rui waved his hand and said, "I'm just a little worried about Commander-in-Chief Han, if you go back like this, will you be punished by Chairman Jiang?" ”
Chen Yi also lost no time in helping and said: "Yes, Chairman Jiang has always been suspicious, if he knew that Commander-in-Chief Han had come to our Yongfeng Town as a guest, I am afraid that he would not be able to say anything about this matter." ”
The implication of Marshal Chen Yi's words is that you, Han Deqin, have been captured by wolf teeth, if the 89th Army did not suffer too much losses in the end, there is nothing, in case you suffer a defeat in the battle with the New Fourth Army, then it is impossible to tell, and Chairman Jiang is likely to wonder if it is you, Han Deqin, who leaked secrets to the New Fourth Army?
Han Deqin's face suddenly turned miserable when he heard this, he really hadn't thought about this.
However, after Chen Yi said this, Han Deqin really felt that it was tricky, because Chairman Jiang has always been suspicious by nature, and for those high-ranking generals who have defected or been captured by the opponent, the most common way to deal with them is to treat them coldly, that is, to send them to a certain high-ranking position and idle them.
Of course, Han Deqin does not want to be like this himself.
Xu Rui smiled slightly and said, "If Commander-in-Chief Han doesn't want to be idle by Chairman Jiang, then there is only one way. ”
"What's the solution?" Han Deqin immediately subconsciously asked, but immediately showed embarrassment after asking.
Xu Rui pretended not to see Han Deqin's eagerness, and said: "If Commander-in-Chief Han doesn't want to lose the trust of Chairman Jiang, if he doesn't want to be idle, then he can only win a battle." (To be continued.) )
