It can be said that Gu Liantong began to have bad luck after meeting Jiang Haoran, first the commander-in-chief of the theater was gone, and finally took the position again, becoming the commander-in-chief of the 41st Group Army, with 20 divisions under his hands, although the position is lower than the previous theater commander, but the strength under his hands is twice as much as before, originally thought that he could create brilliance again, who knew that Jiang Haoran alone would take away ten divisions from him.

Especially now, when the chairman of the committee goes into the wilderness, his backer will fall, and if Jiang Haoran is willing, he may have nothing again at any time.

"Third Brother Mo, my uncle told you, right?" Jiang Haoran said.

"Having said it, saying it all, Mr. Zuo, I used to ......"

Jiang Haoran raised his palm, interrupted Gu Lian's words and said: "Eh, Third Brother Mo, let's not talk about the previous things, I can understand, you are the most trusted person by your uncle's side, of course you have to think about your uncle, otherwise it is not worth it for my uncle to give me a special explanation that I want to reuse you after I go into the wilderness." ”

Gu Liantong sighed: "The general seat understands that the righteousness does not care about the past suspicions, so that Mo San is extremely embarrassed, you can rest assured, in the future, wherever you can use my Mo San, please just speak, I will definitely look forward to you and never break my word." ”

"Well, my uncle also said that you are a loving and righteous person, when the Xi'an Incident occurred, He Yingjing disregarded his uncle's safety, insisted on leading troops to attack Yang and Zhang, and ordered you to be the vanguard, you resisted the pressure and refused to send troops, this uncle still remembers, and talked to me about this a year ago."

Gu Lian was suddenly embarrassed, grateful for the love of the chairman, but he couldn't turn the tide for him at the moment of crisis, his eyes were red, and tears almost fell out.

Jiang Haoran naturally couldn't help but be comforted, not to mention him Gu He, even he Jiang Haoran could only watch from the sidelines, it was the chairman himself who played this game of chess to death, and it had nothing to do with others.

Linda made a pot of red robes for the two, drank tea, reviewed the past, looked forward to the future, the two talked happily, and when it came to the battle of Xuzhou in front of them, Gu Lian suddenly remembered and said: "Boss, if you come to fight the battle of Xuzhou, there is a person who can make good use of it." ”

"Who?"

"Han Deqin!"

"Deloitte Han? Which Han Deloitte? Jiang Haoran frowned, he had vaguely heard the name, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while.

Gu Lian told the story, Han Deqin, the word Chuzhen, graduated from the sixth phase of Baoding Military Academy. Gu and his classmates in the same period, subject and team as him are also fellow villagers. The two were like-minded and became confidants. When I graduated, I agreed with each other that whoever would develop in the future must support each other.

After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Gu Lian was promoted to commander-in-chief of the Third Theater of Operations, and Han Deqin served as the chief of staff of the Deputy Commander of the Third Theater. After taking over as chairman of the Jiangsu Provincial Government, Han was immediately appointed as a member of the Jiangsu Provincial Government and Director of the Department of Civil Affairs. Gu Yin held a military position in the Third Theater and had no time to take care of provincial affairs, and Han Deqin was later appointed as the acting provincial chairman.

At the beginning of 1938, the 24th Army was established, with Gu Lian concurrently serving as the commander-in-chief of the group army, and Han Deqin as the deputy commander-in-chief (actually commanded by Han). The group army is under the jurisdiction of the 89th Army and the 57th Army. The 57th Army was originally the Northeast Army, with two divisions under its jurisdiction: the 111th Division and the 112th Division. The group army also commanded the guerrillas of the 8th Army, the 5th Guerrilla Corps of the 5th Theater, and the Hongze Lake Water Guerrilla Corps. As the acting chairman of Jiangsu Province, Han also commanded the provincial and county security teams stationed in northern Jiangsu, with a total of nearly 100,000 troops.

After the first Battle of Wuhan, the troops of the Third Theater were trapped behind the enemy, and then due to the loss of Chizhou and Tongling one after another, the troops of the Third Theater were cut off by the enemy, the 24th Army led by Han Deqin was in northern Jiangsu, and the rest of the troops were in southern Jiangsu.

Gu Lian said this, Jiang Haoran suddenly remembered that the famous "Huangqiao Incident" in history was created by this person, but because of his appearance, the relationship between Yan'an and Chongqing was not as tense as in history, although there was a period of tension, but it was not long, so this vicious incident did not happen at all. If there is such a force operating behind enemy lines, this is indeed good news for the current battle of Xuzhou, Jiang Haoran also suddenly became interested, and asked urgently: "They have been behind enemy lines for so long, can you be sure that they have not been absorbed by Wang's puppet government?" ”

Gu Lian replied affirmatively: "You can rest assured, Han Deqin is grateful for my kindness, and he will never disobey my words, he promised me two years ago that even if he fights to the last soldier, he will never surrender, so he has no possibility of being absorbed by Wang's puppet government." ”

Jiang Haoran nodded and said, "Then do you know where they are operating now and how many people are left?" ”

Gu Lian hesitated for a few seconds and said, "This is really not clear, the last time I contacted him was in May last year, and their radio station has been silent since then. At that time, the only places he could control were parts of the four counties of Yancheng, Funing, Huai'an, and Baoying, which were about 70 miles long from north to south and about 80 miles wide from east to west. At that time, there were still more than 50,000 troops, and the situation was not optimistic, and they were oppressed by the Japanese puppet army in that remote and narrow place, which was tightly sealed on all sides, and not only could not replenish weapons and ammunition, but even the supply of food and straw was difficult to solve, and they were in a very difficult situation. Because it was located at the junction of the Japanese defense lines in North China and Central China, and was also the junction of the enemy's defenses, the sweep was not so dangerous. I think they will survive tenaciously, and besides, if the enemy destroys or lures them down, it will be a big publicity, so they have no news, but it is all the more proof that they are still there. ”

"Well, that makes sense!" Jiang Haoran nodded and said: "I have written this down, I will try to contact him, as long as he is still in the Yancheng area, I will always find them." ”

Gu Lian is also full of joy, he can share Jiang Haoran's worries, and at the same time solve Han Deqin's problem, as long as he is next to Jiang Haoran's big tree, not only Han Deqin's future career will be worry-free, but his current predicament may not take long to be resolved.

Jiang Haoran suddenly said at this time: "Third Brother Mo, would you be willing to let you rebuild the third war zone?" ”

"What, rebuild the Third Theater of Operations?" Gu Yan's eyes widened, as if he didn't believe what he heard was true, but his body sat up straighter in the suddenness, and even his breathing became short, obviously a little excited.
