Chapter 375: Can't Face It
Zhao Lijun didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that if he breathed heavily, he would be shocked by this person with grass everywhere.
When the man got up, he quickly pulled the bolt of his gun, raised his gun to aim, and then opened fire, and from the gun with the sight in his hand, there came a familiar "呅" muffled thought, the same sound that made him and his agents tremble.
Could it be that his own people were killed by this gunman and that knife man? Could it be that the monkey ran away because he saw these two "fierce gods"?
Zhao Lijun had doubts in his heart, but he didn't dare to move, he pressed his body tightly to the ground, tightly wrapped by this large mass of weeds.
He didn't try to verify the answer, but the answer was displayed in front of his eyes.
In addition to the two people who had already shown up with a gun and a knife, there was a "straw man" in the opposite direction not far away, which was exactly the same as the gun held here, and then seven or eight people appeared in various inconspicuous places, they did not hold guns or knives, but they all held a small and delicate crossbow in their hands. Zhao Lijun has seen a big crossbow and a fine crossbow, but he has never seen such a small crossbow, although he has never seen this kind of small crossbow, but he also knows that this kind of crossbow is more accurate than the bow and arrow, the range is far, the power is great, the most powerful thing is that it can kill people in the silent invisible, now it seems that his subordinates are not all killed by gunmen, most of them should die in this silent small crossbow.
Although he crouched in the grass, he couldn't see how many such people were in this place, but he knew that even if he had twice as many people, it would be the same result.
Zhao Lijun has been secretly lucky now, he knows that he has done a lot of luck, he just ran away in this direction, what a wise choice, and how lucky, if he can escape this time, he must go to the Buddha to worship.
The dozens of army commanders who came after him were like mad dogs that couldn't be shaken off by Liu Wenzhi and them, but for Gang Lengzi and his bayonet squad, it was a massacre with clear differences in strength and weakness.
After confirming that there were no live mouths and fish that had slipped through the net, Gang Lengzi gathered the men and horses, and gave Liu Wenzhi a formal salute and report: "Deputy Commander, the bayonet squad directly under the military headquarters of the Twelfth Army, on the orders of the army commander, came to welcome you and Director Gu back. ”
Liu Wenzhi's heart was surging, although he also controlled the troops in Biandanshi, he had long since lost the rigor of Sun Yumin, which may be the most existential military salute for him in recent times.
…………
A few days later.
Liu Wenzhi and his entourage arrived in Liuyang, and they were received by Li Tiedan of the New 34th Division and Dong Wenbin of the mechanized brigade directly under the military headquarters, as well as Xiao Yatou, Chu Jiu and Lin Yuanping, Chen Lai was also in the crowd that greeted them, although she did not have a lot of contacts with Liu Wenzhi and them, but she knew that these people were her brother-in-law's henchmen and brothers, and there were no fewer people who were taken care of when they were in Yangshupu and Biandanshi, so they had to come out to take care of each other.
The reason why Sun Yumin was not in the garrison military headquarters was because he was pulled by Xue Yue to the Ninth Theater Headquarters.
After the end of the Battle of Northern Hunan in the Second Battle of Changsha, Xue Yue was worried that after the Japanese army relieved the siege of Yichang, it would turn south again and attack the political, economic, and cultural center city of HuxiangIn this battle, although many details have changed, the direction of the wheel of history has not changed, including the commander of the 58th Division who died unjustly and was finally buried in the Nanyue Martyrs' Shrine.
Historically, the 74th Army was almost severely damaged in the Battle of Northern Hunan Province, and the battle simply became their Waterloo.
The 74th Army was first ordered to march during the day, but was bombed by the Japanese 3rd Flying Regiment many times, and the 57th and 58th Divisions suffered a lot of damage before the battle began. Immediately after the duel with Toshima Fangtaro, Yu Chengwan's 57th Division suffered as much as 3,000 battle losses in one day, although their losses were heavy, but they still blocked the 29th Brigade of the 3rd Division Hanaya Zheng, and even with the assistance of Liao Lingqi's 58th Division, launched a counterattack, once broke through Yong'an, and almost captured Toshima Fangtaro alive, which was retaliated by Toshima's large-scale retaliation, and just when the 57th, 58th and 3rd Divisions were in full swing, Kanda Masashi's 6th Division launched an attack on Li Tianxia of the 51st Division.
The 6th Division's attack was extremely rapid, Li Tianxia didn't even have time to report to Wang Yaowu, and finally Li Tianxia ordered to withdraw from the position after a fierce ideological struggle, and the 6th Division broke through the position of the 51st Division and rushed to the position of the 58th Division in Yong'an.
Not to mention that Wang Yaowu was almost hit by the Japanese army, the 58th Division was suddenly attacked by the Japanese 3rd Division and the 6th Division, which is enough to show the severity of the situation.
Fortunately, he has a wealth of combat experience played a key role, as the commander who experienced the bloody battle of Songhu and the tragic defense of Nanjing, Liao Lingqi can be regarded as coming out of the sea of corpses and blood, after this siege, he miraculously took most of the troops of the 58th Division out of the encirclement of the Japanese army, it stands to reason that he will be rewarded, but because of some manpower factors, Liao Lingqi was saddled with a huge black cauldron, and finally became the first general of the Central Army to be shot by Lao Jiang.
Nowadays, the 74th Army, like the 12th Army, is regarded as a guest by Xue Yue, and all the supplies that should be supplied are also given priority, which makes Wang Yaowu complacent, and even in front of Xue Yue and others, Sun Yumin is a little squeezed in his words, this anti-Japanese hero whom he originally admired, suddenly plummeted in his image and status.
Sun Yumin himself didn't like this set of officialdom, so even if he was treated as a guest by Xue Yue and wooed in every possible way, he was still indifferent like a wooden man who didn't eat oil and salt. It's not that he has made up his mind to follow the "Civil Engineering Department", but at least for now, being with Luo Zhuoying is definitely better than the arrogant Wang Yaowu and Xue Yue, who can't listen to advice.
Sun Yumin respects Luo Zhuoying, Luo Zhuoying also likes Sun Yumin, who doesn't want to have a force like the Twelfth Army by his side?
During the Second Battle of Changsha, the 72nd Army, which took over the 74th Army stationed near Xiushui and Sandu, discovered that the 40th Division of the Japanese Army, which was originally garrisoning southern Hunan, had moved westward, so it attacked the Japanese stronghold and communication line near Tongshan, and attacked Tongshan County; The 14th Brigade of the Japanese Army, which was responsible for the garrison of Qixi, attacked part of the positions of the Chinese 78th Army on the Wuning side, and the Japanese 34th Division stationed in Nanchang attacked several positions on the south bank of the Jinjiang River of the Chinese 19th Army; These real pressures also made Luo Zhuoying feel that his troops were stretched, and he wished that Sun Yumin would return to Jiangxi to defend Jiangxi. And Chen Cheng was even more worried that Xue Yue would use his "civil engineering" troops as a shield and throw them at the forefront, so he was also actively trying to transfer the 12th Army to the 6th War Zone.
But unexpectedly, the requests of the two were rejected by Lao Jiang, who was in Nanyue Hengshan to preside over the post-war summary meeting. Although there was Xue Yue's full force to "block", it was more that Lao Jiang was not at ease and lost the entire Xiangbei to the 74th Army.
The Ninth Theater claims to have 500,000 national troops, but in essence, it can work hard with the Japanese army, except for the 12th Army and the 74th Army, only Luo Zhuoying's 19th Group Army remains, and it does not mean that other troops cannot fight, like the 32nd Army of Wang Lingji of the Sichuan Army, it is a hard bone, but the weapons and equipment are not of the same grade at all, and the logistics supply cannot keep up, so these non-central army troops cannot be asked to use their bodies to block the steel torrent of devils.
Sun Yumin was completely unaware of the wrestling behind these, this time he went to Xiangtan of the Ninth Theater Temporary Headquarters, but he really had something wrong with him, but fortunately he was with Deng Dongping by his side, and the Ninth Theater Command moved back to Changsha in a few days, which made him feel more at ease, after all, all the troops were around Changsha, and he was closer to the troops, so he had some confidence. Xue Yue also found that he didn't seem to like being with the arrogant Wang Yaowu very much, and on some later occasions, he tried not to arrange for the two to be together, unless it was like some unavoidable circumstances, such as the post-war summary meeting held in Nanyue chaired by Lao Jiang himself.
Sun Yumin actually didn't want to attend this meeting, but he couldn't find an excuse to excuse himself, and whoever let others be at the Ninth Theater Headquarters, so he had no choice but to follow Xue Yue to Nanyue Hengshan.
Sun Yumin didn't want to go to Nanyue to attend the meeting, on the one hand, because he didn't want to get too close to Lao Jiang, he always had the idea of taking the brothers to the New Fourth Army or the Eighth Route Army, but he didn't want to affect the brothers because of himself; On the other hand, and the main reason, he can't face Chen Bui, although no one has mentioned Lu Man's matter to him, but let him deceive a person who is over half a hundred years old and wholeheartedly good to himself, Sun Yumin really can't do it.
The meeting didn't last long, and the ending was also a coffin closure, Sun Yumin was glad that Lao Jiang didn't want to see him, and when he was about to slip away, he was blocked by Chen Bui.
"Yumin, you come with me, I have something to say to you."
"Oh."
Sun Yumin almost didn't dare to look at Chen Bui squarely, he felt both guilty and sympathetic for the elder in front of him.
followed Chen Bui to a small reception room, and when the servant brought tea to the two, he closed the door.
Chen Bui rummaged through a briefcase he was carrying, took out a tightly wrapped thing in cloth, handed it to him, and said, "I am very happy to receive Xiaoman's letter and know that she has given birth to a little grandson......
Hearing this, Sun Yumin's ears buzzed, and his whole head turned blank, and as for what Chen Bui said later, he didn't listen to it.
It has not been a while since he and Lu Man separated, but I have never forgotten this woman in my heart, maybe she has experienced the test of life and death together, or maybe she has loved her unforgettablely, in short, whether it is Chen Yun before or Chen Lai now, she cannot take her place.
He always thought that Lu Man was very good on the side of the New Fourth Army, but he didn't expect that she had already given birth to a child during the time of separation.
To be honest, Sun Yumin's heart was full of jealousy and jealousy. Chen Bui's words made him feel so stupid and stupid.
The reason why Lu Man was so determined to leave him was because of what happened in that accident, which produced an even more unexpected result, that is, she was pregnant with Ruan Yunxi's child. Even if there was such an accident, she finally chose to follow herself back to Anhui, and chose to give herself a chance again and again, if she decided to follow her to the New Fourth Army at that time, instead of making a big excuse for herself, to become the commander of the Huoshan Independent Detachment and later the commander of the Twelfth Army, then she would rather lose the fetus in her womb and be with herself.
Now, things have come to this point, it is impossible to turn back, Lu Man is really impossible to come back, Sun Yumin's heart is dead, in fact, when he saw the letter stuffed in the padded jacket of the first nine years, he knew that this was already a doomed and unchangeable fact, but now in front of Chen Bui, he still has too much loss and frustration.
"Yumin, what's wrong with you?" Chen Bui asked suspiciously, he saw that Sun Yumin was holding the cloth bag and neither opened nor looked at it, but his eyes were straight and in a daze, which made him feel a little strange.
"Nothing, I'm fine." Being called by him like this, Sun Yumin woke up from his daze, and hurriedly replied, in order to hide his gaffe, he opened the cloth bag three times and five by two, but the things he saw made him stunned again.
The cloth bag is wrapped in a gold lock and a pair of gold bracelets, which is a set of talismans for born children, especially the golden lock, at a glance, you know that it is not an ordinary thing, it is a long-life lock that ordinary people can't afford to use.
"The little grandson was born, and I didn't have anything good to give, so I prepared this little thing, and there was originally a set of silver dishes and chopsticks, but I was in a hurry, and I didn't care about bringing it." Chen Bui thought that these two things surprised Sun Yumin, so he was in a daze, completely unaware that the son-in-law in front of him was actually not his fast son-in-law.
In the face of Chen Bui's kindness, Sun Yumin couldn't respond for a while, what could he say? Do you tell him all the truth, and tell him that your daughter and I have long been separated; Tell him that the child that your daughter gave birth to is not mine; Tell him that your daughter is already a high-ranking cadre of the Communist Party!
These three points, no matter which one of them, will make him unbearable, let alone say the three points together.
Sun Yumin couldn't bear to hurt the loving old man in front of him, so he had to be ruthless and stubbornly said: "'Thank you! ”
Saying this thank you, this longevity lock and this pair of rings naturally have to be accepted, as for how to hand it over to her, I have to entrust Liu Wenzhi, isn't he rushing here?
"Silly boy, what my grandfather gave to my grandson, where can I use it." Chen Bui didn't suspect anything, his eyes were full of pity, he was grafting all his love for Lu Man onto Sun Yumin's body.
Sun Yumin didn't respond to this, he just nodded heavily, and then turned his gaze away, he didn't want Chen Bui to see the panic in his eyes, he didn't want him to see his loss.
