Just when the chief of the operations section received the order and was about to send a report to the Ludong Army Division. Li Ziyuan stopped him, turned to the division commander and said: "Chief, I know the correspondent sent by the head of the military division, it is definitely our own person, not a Japanese puppet spy disguised, I can guarantee this." The handwriting on the letter must also be the handwriting of the two heads of the military sub-division. ”

"The chief, our commanders and commissars, are the kind of people who carry out orders without compromise. This order issued by the military sub-district, if I am not mistaken, should be the devil who deciphered the radio connection between the division headquarters and the military sub-district, and gave us a fishing in troubled waters and a diversion of the tiger from the mountain. ”

"Although we are local armed forces, local armed forces have the advantages of local armed forces. Compared with the main force that needs to be mobile in combat, our local armed forces are quite familiar with the terrain and people's conditions in Hubei. We have fought a lot of tough battles with the Japanese army before, and it can be said that it will be difficult to sleep and eat if we do not destroy our Japanese army. ”

"Therefore, the Japanese army used the deciphering of the radio code between the division headquarters and the military sub-division to transfer us out of Hubei and rush to the core of the Japanese sweep in the entire Taihang District. The first is to transfer our local snake out of Hubei, so that they can fight steadily and open the southwest gate of our Taihang base area. ”

"lest my troops stay in the eastern mountainous areas of Hubei and create some trouble for their overall strategy in the eastern mountainous areas of Hubei. In particular, I have fought with the plainclothes armed forces of the Japanese puppet army many times, and I have experience in dealing with these plainclothes armed forces, and transferring me out of Hubei will not arouse the suspicion of the military sub-district. ”

"This must have been done by my old rival, Numu Tsuruta. In addition to being afraid that we will ruin his good deeds, this guy also wants to take advantage of the superior forces of the Japanese army that is carrying out a sweep in our core area. Taking advantage of our transfer out of the old base area in Hubei, the loss of local support and the lack of intelligence, we were boiled with the division headquarters. ”

"The reason why they did not have the two main regiments to which the army division belonged was also very simple. They are afraid that they will transfer a main force regiment to give our division headquarters wings like a tiger and create trouble for the elimination of our division headquarters. After all, for the First Army and the 36th Division, our weight is far less than that of the divisional headquarters. ”

"The first reason for transferring us out of Hubei is that as a battalion-level unit, we do not have a radio station ourselves, and the communication between us and our superiors depends entirely on communicators. Once we lose the support of the local militia and the county and district cadres, we are deaf and blind. The head snake of the land, leaving his own territory, is no different from the guest army. ”

"Plus they're in our core area, posing as our own people. I think that without the support of an accurate intelligence system, it is easy for us to be led into a trap by them. When the time comes, the Japanese puppet army will attack from all sides, and it will not be easy for me to run. ”

"Even if we escaped, it was only the strength of a battalion, and it did not add much pressure to the Japanese troops who swept through Liao County. After we were transferred, the divisional troops left behind were not familiar with the situation, and their support and understanding of the localities were certainly far inferior to ours, and they could deal with our local regimes very calmly. ”

"The devil's hand is very vicious, and with our eagerness to report to the division headquarters, we are pushed to the core area of this sweep. Using the so-called forward team they have trained, they push us directly to death. At the same time, when we are transferred, it is impossible to use the divisional troops to take into account only the factors in Hubei and uproot our local political power in Hubei. ”

"It is even possible that they took advantage of the idea that we were in a hurry to report back to the division headquarters and sent a part of their troops to follow us. Cooperate with the so-called Okawa Advance Team to carry out a sabotage attack on our division headquarters. Division, you have to move immediately, you can't stay here. ”

After Li Ziyuan finished speaking, he waved his hand behind him. The two soldiers behind him put a stack of documents from the Okawa advance team and the search in front of the division commander: "Division commander, this is what we have captured in a battle with a Japanese army disguised as our army. ”

Judging from the captured Japanese documents, the goal of this Japanese army is to find the division headquarters and guide the Japanese puppet troops in other directions to encircle and annihilate the division headquarters. Chief, this Japanese army is quite similar in disguise, and on the surface it is almost no different from our army. ”

"If it weren't for this disguised Japanese army, the equipment is too good for us, and the foreign cloth military uniform and radio station on my body, even I might have been deceived. But it was also a coincidence that we happened to encounter them on the way here. Considering the threat they would pose to the divisional headquarters, we resolved it for the chief. ”

Looking at what Li Ziyuan had placed in front of him, the division commander frowned and studied it with the chief of staff. said to Li Ziyuan: "You are right, it is very likely that there is a certain problem in the radio communication between us and the troops below." It is highly likely that the Japanese army deciphered the radio code between us and your military division and gave us this hand. ”

"If you ask now, it is estimated that it can only make the troops below more passive. But now it's too late to change the radio code. In this case, I will send someone to find a way to contact your military division. As for the other issues, I will wait for the chief of staff and I to study them before making a decision. ”

Speaking of this, the division commander looked at what Li Ziyuan had put in front of him, and said with a smile: "The Japanese spy army disguised as our army you mentioned, we have already discovered them. It's just that this Japanese army is very cunning, and it is very closely connected with the large forces of the Japanese puppet army operating in the surrounding areas. ”

"We have also organized troops many times to completely solve this Japanese army that has been biting us, causing us great trouble and harming our activities. But it always fell short because of the main force of the surrounding Japanese puppet army and the rapid reinforcement speed. I didn't expect that this time you kid solved the problem for us. ”

"You kid seems to have a good way to deal with this kind of disguised spy armament. I have concentrated several battalions of troops on my side, but I haven't solved this spy army, so it was solved by your kid in a short time, and you also solved the most headache for me. ”

Hearing the teacher's praise, Li Ziyuan said with some embarrassment: "Teacher, it's not that we won't use fishing in troubled waters." In fact, as early as when I found out that something was wrong with this Japanese army, I roughly guessed what their true intentions were. So, I'll give them a fishing in troubled waters. ”

Li Ziyuan briefly and concisely reported the course of this battle to the division commanders present. When the division commander, political commissar, and chief of staff heard that Li Ziyuan used Li Kui to deal with Li Ghost at that time, and used his own name to fool the Japanese army under the banner of the division headquarters, even the division political commissar, who had always been serious, couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

The political commissar pointed at Li Ziyuan and said with a smile: "You little ghost, you can also think of this method." Use your own name to fool the Japanese army, lure them into the mentality of being eager to find our agency, and let them reveal their identities. However, although you have made a contribution this time, I still have to criticize you for your personal risk. ”

"You have to always remember that you are a battalion commander, not a squad platoon leader. Your position should always be in your battalion commander's position, not to be a death captain. If it weren't for the sharpshooter you arranged, who shot to cover you at a critical time, you would still be able to stand here and report? What will your troops do when the time comes? ”

After the political commissar's criticism of three points of anger and seven points of love was finished. After turning his head and discussing with the division commander, he said to Li Ziyuan: "In this way, since you are here, don't care about the reason, it just so happens that the division also needs cadres like you." The Japanese army sent a similar unit this time, not only against us, but also one operating around the headquarters.

"You violated discipline this time, but you did well. I will now give you two tasks, one is to find this similar Japanese army around the headquarters and deal with them. Remember, you must ensure the security of the headquarters, and find this disguised Japanese army at all costs to eliminate it. ”

"Another problem is that we were very passive in this anti-sweep. The speed with which the Japanese army closed far exceeded our judgment. At present, the headquarters organ is being bitten very tightly by the Japanese army, and there is only one regiment around except for the special service group. In addition to eliminating this camouflaged Japanese army, another reason for your visit is to find the stragglers at the headquarters and cover them out. ”

"There are not only non-combatants from the Northern Bureau at the headquarters, but also a large number of intellectuals. These people are the precious assets of our troops, and you must find a way to bring them out after you complete your mission. The chief of staff will explain the enemy situation at the headquarters in detail. ”

"You've dealt with these Japanese spies and have some experience dealing with them, so this time the defense headquarters sent you. Remember, this group of Japanese spies must not be allowed to find the headquarters office. Don't delay here, the division headquarters doesn't need so many troops here. ”

Hearing the political commissar's order, Li Ziyuan hurriedly stood up and said solemnly: "Please rest assured, we will resolutely find this disguised Japanese army and resolutely eliminate it." At the expense of a single soldier, even if all of them are gone, the security of the headquarters must be protected. ”

Li Ziyuan's voice fell, and the division commander also spoke: "Li Ziyuan, you must be more careful when you go, and don't be careless." The Japanese advanced and closed the encirclement quite quickly, and the headquarters organs were relatively large, and there were too many non-combatants, so the movement was a little slow. ”

"You don't have to deal with it this time, but the Japanese spy forces that always bite the headquarters. To cover so many non-combatants to break through, the burden on your shoulders is not very light. You have to be careful not to get caught by the devils. If you have any needs, you will directly ask the chief of staff to solve them for you. ”

Listening to the division commander's explanation like an old mother, Li Ziyuan, who was warm in his heart, saluted the division commander and political commissar with a standard military salute and said: "Division commander, political commissar, I am going now, please rest assured." The night is dark and there are many wolves, so you two must also pay attention to safety. ”

Just when Li Ziyuan turned around and was about to leave, the political commissar walked in front of Li Ziyuan, looked at Li Ziyuan, who was a little emaciated, pondered for a while and said: "Let the logistics make you some food before you leave, and then let the logistics department allocate some bullets for you." If you need it, ask the Chief of Staff to transfer some of your troops from the Guards. ”

Regarding the political commissar's words, Li Ziyuan shook his head and said: "Political commissar, we don't need bullets and soldiers, and the division headquarters is not rich here." The target of the Japanese army's sweep this time is our superior organs, and judging from the speed of the Japanese army's encirclement, the division headquarters needs these more here than us. ”
