Chapter Seventy-Seven: Chang Juan's Anger
Just when Guan Li received the order and was ready to prepare to distinguish the report. Li Ziyuan stopped Guan Li again, hesitated for a moment and said, "Lao Guan, don't report the seizure of the radio station this time." I was left to ponder for a while before handing it over to the sub-district. ”
"Anyway, they won't need it there for the time being, so I'll borrow it here for a few days. With this thing, although some of the heads are not their own, it is really not good to not have them at a critical time. If we had the password to contact the partition, we wouldn't have to run around all the time. ”
"Now I'm a little conflicted about this station. With the radio, it is more convenient to communicate with superiors. But with the radio, it means that this head is not his own, and there is more mother-in-law on top. And the devil is also easy to find our location through the radio signal. ”
"But I'm still a little reluctant to hand it over like this. I'm thinking about what I'm going to do with this station, and I'm thinking about whether or not to turn it in. Anyway, you can't take it with you now, so let's put it here first. As for the rest, you will truthfully report it to the military division. Especially in this encounter with the Japanese plainclothes team, you must report truthfully to the division. ”
Listening to Li Ziyuan's last words, Guan Li smiled and didn't say anything. Li Ziyuan's report was carefully sewn into his clothes. and the document handed over by Li Ziyuan, which was also carefully hidden, and then without eating a single bite of food, he hurried to the military division.
Looking at Guan Li's back, Li Ziyuan shook his head, turned around and fiddled with the little devil's radio. He didn't want to contact others right away, of course, he didn't have a codebook to communicate with other parties, and there was no way to contact other parties, so he didn't need to think about it for the time being.
Now he just wants to use the code book he has in his hand, which he has captured from this Japanese pseudo-plainclothes armed force, to see if he can find out some enemy dynamics by listening. It's just that the telegram received a lot, but in Japanese, he has six tricks, and the rest is nothing.
Li Ziyuan still understands some of the code used in telegraphy. During the Long March, I seized the opportunity, and as long as it was something useful on the battlefield, I was willing to make up my mind to learn anything. Although he is not a professional dispatcher, he still understands Morse code coding and rules.
What kind of place is the Red Army, it is the place where the elites of the two fronts of the Red Army gather. At that time, although the Red Army had few radio stations, the work of cultivating talents was at the forefront. And for Li Ziyuan, a former scholar, Morse code is not something difficult to memorize.
Chinese students may be a little less adaptable, but their rote memorization skills are absolutely unparalleled in the world. Although he has left the battlefield in order not to be transferred to the communications department over the years, Li Ziyuan has never told others that he knows some things about radio communication. For Li Ziyuan, it is not interesting to be a communications soldier who sits in front of the radio all day.
But even though he hadn't used it for years, these things were still in his head. And this time he was lucky, as soon as he turned on the phone, he received a call sign from the Japanese army. The call sign in the seized codebook also made it easy for him to communicate with the other side. So he recorded the code very smoothly and translated it using the Japanese codebook.
But the problem was that the code was in Japanese, and the telegram was translated, but he couldn't understand the content. His so-called translation was to copy the telegram into Japanese according to the coding procedure on the codebook. But what the content of the translated telegram was, he was confused.
Fortunately, Chang Juan, who was holding on to his sick body, watched him busy here, but looked at the things copied out in a daze. He took the telegram that he translated, but couldn't understand, read it carefully, and said with a smile: "This is a telegram from the intelligence department of the Japanese army in Changzhi, asking this so-called advance team to report on its activities. ”
"Also, on this telegram, the Japanese army of Changzhi demanded that this advance team immediately withdraw to Changzhi City. Because the Japanese sweep of the eastern mountains in Hubei was about to stop. Considering that after the retreat of the other Japanese puppet troops, this plainclothes team is operating alone with us, I am afraid that it is somewhat unsafe. Therefore, the Changzhi Japanese army demanded that they withdraw immediately, but asked them to withdraw directly to Changzhi City, instead of staying in Hubei County to rest. ”
Hearing that Chang Juan actually knew Japanese, Li Ziyuan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the secretary of the district party committee in front of him would still know such difficult and tongue-twisting Japanese. This is amazing, there are few qualified translators in the main force where I was originally located, and most of them are two knives trained by assault.
Seeing Li Ziyuan's somewhat surprised expression, Chang Juan said: "When I was training in the Sacrifice Alliance, I learned some Japanese. When I was studying at the Party School of the Prefectural Party Committee, I also learned some from the enemy engineering translators in the sub-district because of the needs of my work. ”
"However, the translation of the enemy engineering department in our division is two knives, and I, a half-hung apprentice, are naturally not very smart. Reading and writing is okay, but speaking and listening are a bit difficult. Fortunately, I don't have to read this telegram, otherwise I'm afraid that my Japanese level will not be able to understand it. ”
Regarding Chang Juan's self-humility, Li Ziyuan waved his hand, but said indifferently: "Instructor, don't be too modest." Japanese is too complicated, and it's much harder to learn than English. Some of the words in it look the same as ours, but the meaning is 108,000 miles. Being able to read and write has helped a lot. ”
Speaking of this, Li Ziyuan said in a somewhat heavy tone: "Instructor, we have suffered a lot of losses in this battle. Before the battle, I was a little dizzy and too underestimated in my mind. I didn't expect that the little devil would set such a big trap for us in turn. ”
"I don't like to talk about objective reasons, and no amount of objective reasons can explain anything. In the final analysis, it is still the problem with my own head. This battle reminded me in many ways and taught me a lot of things. Fight, you can't fight like this in the future. At least until our bodies and bones are completely hardened, the battle can't be fought like this. ”
"But what kind of new style of play should be adopted, we need to sit down and study it carefully. The second district is now the focus of the Japanese puppet army to sweep and clear the countryside, but we are not just guerrillas in the second district. We have only been active in the second area for a long time, and the goal of the devils is very single and simple, and it is easy to concentrate enough troops to sweep the second area. ”
"I pondered that District 1 in the south and District 3 in the north should be the main focus of work in the next step, and these two districts should also become our fortress areas. At least it can effectively distract the Japanese puppet army from the second area,"
"At the very least, there must be a solid area for the replenishment of soldiers, the supply of food, and the recuperation of the wounded. Relying on a second district alone, even exhaustion cannot meet the needs. The most important thing is to stretch our hands as far out as possible in order to establish a solid source of information and avoid the recurrence of this situation. ”
Li Ziyuan's words made Chang Juan nod slightly: "I agree with this, we must have time to change." Some time ago, we were lucky, the central army from the south to the north relieved us of a great burden, and attracted most of the attention of the Japanese puppet army in Changzhi City. ”
"Now that the Central Army in the south has retreated, the Japanese puppet army immediately turned against us, and we are a little overwhelmed. Zones 1 and 3 are both tug-of-war and guerrilla zones, and we have to find a way to turn these places into fortress areas. In particular, District 1 is the main grain producing area in the mountainous areas of eastern Hubei, and it is also the most important population concentration area. ”
"If we can turn District 1 into our fortress area, our soldier problem will be solved. But the problem is that District 1 is just south of Pingchuan Town, which is the key control area of the puppet garrison. After we raided Pingchuan Town last time, the puppet garrison set up a stronghold on the front line of Fuhu Temple, and directly blocked our way out of the mountain. ”
"Captain Li, I feel that if we want to solve the current dilemma in the entire eastern mountainous area of Hubei, the most fundamental problem is to find a way to solve Wang Tieshi, a hardcore traitor. He is quite familiar with the terrain and people here, and he is desperate to work for the devil. If we don't get rid of him, it will always be difficult for us to open up the situation. ”
"You have also seen the secretary of the district party committee and the head of the district in the first district. They are also very capable comrades, but under the strict control of the Japanese puppet garrison, their work is difficult to carry out. Captain, I don't think you have to go head-to-head with the Japanese puppet army to solve the problem. We only have so many troops, and we are always so tough, how many troops are enough for you to replenish? ”
"It is impossible for the Japanese puppet army to always mobilize a large number of troops to carry out a long-term sweep in the mountainous areas east of Hubei as it does today. In my opinion, in the near future, we should focus on those pseudo-propaganda and puppet local regimes that control the localities, and find ways to use these people for us. ”
"Our strength may be a little poor against the Japanese army. But there is no problem in dealing with those puppet regime personnel and the puppet army. Captain, against the puppet army, I feel that the rest of the puppet army still has to fight for the rest of the puppet army. I look at that captive this time, we can do some work. ”
Chang Juan's thoughts and suggestions, Li Ziyuan nodded: "You have some truth. However, we cannot rely only on us to win over the puppet military and political personnel, and we also need unified arrangements from the higher levels. I don't know what the higher-ups think, is it so difficult to rebuild a county party committee? ”
"Instructor, in the case that the new county party committee has not yet been established, I will see if the three district committees of you will start first. No, let's have a joint meeting. There can be some coordinated action between the three district committees. It's still not good to always go it alone. As for those two captives, don't think about it for the time being, I've already disposed of them. ”
Li Ziyuan directly and simply told Chang Juan that the two captives had been disposed of. At the same time that Chang Juan was flustered, the anger in her heart couldn't help but come out immediately. Regardless of the physical discomfort, Chang Juan walked up to Li Ziyuan in a few steps, pointed to his nose and said, "Captain, our troops have strict discipline for prisoners. ”
"How can you kill a captive without permission? You are a serious violation of discipline, don't you know? Okay, even if it's a disciplinary issue, let's put it aside for now. In terms of intelligence work, you always complain that our intelligence work is not timely, and it is very troublesome for us to install intelligence personnel in the Hubei Japanese puppet army. ”
"But this opportunity is rare, don't you know? These two people are translators of the Japanese advance team, and if they can be used by me, we can plant a rare nail next to the core secret of the Japanese army, and obtain as much information as possible in this regard. It's good now, a ready-made source of intelligence that can be used is cut off by yourself. ”
