"Hello Chief!" Mo Yun, Yang Shaobao and other cadres shook hands one by one.

"Commander, I review to you, due to my negligence, the comrades sent by the Longbei Brigade to support us sacrificed eight people, please punish me organizationally." Hou Liang said sincerely.

"I already know about this, now is not the time to review, how is the situation of the troops attacking Liangyou Town?" Mo Yun's face became serious.

Hou Liang explained the whole process in detail. Mo Yun listened, nodded from time to time, and praised their playing style, he said, "Well, it's good! You guys didn't do anything brutally during the whole process, and the style of play was very good! We should turn the factors that are unfavorable to the attacking side into favorable conditions for our army, and in the course of the battle, we will give full play to our army's special strengths and advantages, adopt flexible and diverse tactics, and destroy a large number of the enemy's vital forces, thus laying the foundation for the final general offensive. In the end, Mo Yun decided that the troops would rest for one night, and the next day organize all forces to launch a final general attack on the enemy in Liangyou Town. After Hou Liang arranged all the work of tomorrow's general attack, he couldn't forget to send a few people to cut all the telephone lines leading to Liangyou Town.

On the third day, as soon as the sky was bright, the battalion deputy casually hung the binoculars on his shoulders, buttoned his clothes as he walked, and swayed to the front of the position. I slept really well last night, not only him, but the whole army was the same. The fierce fighting for several days in a row is not only physically exhausting, but also emotional tension, fear, hunger...... It has made the brothers unspeakably tired and miserable, and this sleep has not yet been found in the north. The battalion deputy slowly raised his glasses and looked at the other side. In the camera, the mountains and fields in the distance seem to be full of people. He thought that his eyes hadn't woken up yet, and his eyes were spent, so he rubbed them, yawned, and glanced at the focal length on the telescope. When he raised his binoculars again to take a closer look. He was stunned by the scene in front of him, and he couldn't speak for a long time. When he woke up, he hurried to whistle desperately. After ordering the soldiers guarding the scene to prepare for battle, they quickly ran to Mo Tong and crashed into the room. At this time, Mo Tong was awakened by the sound of a hurried whistle. Realized something was wrong. was hurriedly getting dressed, grabbing the gun on the bed, and when he saw the battalion deputy, before Mo Tong could ask, the battalion deputy stammered: "Battalion ...... Battalion...... Battalion commander, guerrillas fighting...... Beat...... It's called, it's ...... Arrive...... There are people everywhere. ”

"What? What did you say? "Seeing the deputy of the battalion like that, it was in vain to ask him. Mo Tong rushed out of the room, shouting as he ran: "Hurry up, hurry up!" Gather your team and get ready for the battle. He came to the fortifications. Raised the telescope and looked at the other side, this look made him gasp, what's going on? With so many guerrillas popping up overnight, without reinforcements, this town of Liangyou would never have been able to hold it. He hurriedly ran back to the command post, held down the phone, and shook it vigorously, he wanted to call the regimental seat and ask him to send troops to support, but there was no sound on the phone, he put down the phone and continued to shake it desperately, but there was still no sound on the phone. At this time, Ruan Shaoxiong also rushed to hear the news.

"Battalion Commander Mo, don't shake! Save your effort, the phone doesn't work at all. ”

"Impossible! Yesterday was fine. Mo Tong thought it was incredible.

"Alas! I said Battalion Commander Mo! If you look at the scene outside, you will know that the 'Turkish Communists' have been prepared for a long time, and they used us to play with us two days ago, but now they are all right, reinforcements from all walks of life have arrived, and the general offensive has begun, and the phones have been cut off, do you think the phone in your hand can still be shaken? Ruan Shaoxiong sighed, "Damn! This 'Turkish Communists' is really cunning! We were all deceived. ”

"What then?"

"What to do? What else can I do, either wait for death, or run away! ”

"Dead? Dead in vain. Run? When I went back, I lost my good friend, and the group seat didn't pick my skin. It's death before and after, man, you give me an idea. "Mo Tong has nothing to do.

"In my opinion, let's take a look first and then talk about it, if it really doesn't work, let's leave, and after I go back, at least I can live one day at a time."

"Just follow your plan, take care of him, and live one day at a time."

Where did the guerrillas come in so many people at once? In fact, except for the Tanliang Brigade and the first squadron brought by Mo Yun, there were militia and peasant association elements from various villages, and most of the others were ordinary people from nearby villages mobilized by Zhao Qi and Osmanthus Hua. Those with better weapons were on the front line, followed by earthen guns and cannons, broadswords and spears, shovels, hoes, sticks, and ox forks, and on the periphery were unarmed villagers who came to shout and cheer. Since the guerrillas are dressed in similar clothes to ordinary people, they wear everything, and from a distance, there are people everywhere, where can you tell who is the guerrillas and who are the common people? With this posture alone, even more security regiments have to be suppressed, let alone a battalion that has been exhausted and suffered heavy losses?

The guerrillas have surrounded the town of Liangyou. Mo Yun said, concentrate firepower and give the enemy a blow. Suddenly, machine guns, pistols, rifles, earth guns and earth cannons opened fire, and even bows and arrows were fired at them. Several soldiers covered their faces, their faces were covered with blood, it turned out that they had been hit by iron sand, and they screamed in pain, and a company commander was actually hit by a bamboo arrow in the shoulder, covered his shoulder, and ran to report: "Battalion commander, brothers really can't stand it, where is this war, this is simply being hunted!" Mo Tong looked at the embarrassed image of the company commander, and he didn't shoot out of anger, pointed the gun at him, and scolded: "Get out!" Go back to your position, let the 'Turkish Communists' rush up, and Lao Tzu will kill you!" The company commander had no choice but to slip away, hugging his injured shoulder, and ran back to the position.

Mo Yun saw that it was time, ordered everyone to stop shooting, waved his hand back, and Osmanthus and Xiangmei immediately took a huge horn made of cardboard shell from behind them.

"Brethren of the Security Corps!" Osmanthus shouted Guiliu words, and Xiangmei followed the words of "Ma Gai", "You are surrounded," ...... "Surrender quickly!" There is no way out for the "......" resistance, and the "......" asks you not to be obstinate and work for the Kuomintang reactionaries, and the "......" stubborn resistance to the end is the only way to die. "...... most of you, just like us. They are all poor people, and there is no need to die for the corrupt government of the Kuomintang. "......" Surrender! We will treat our captives well and will not kill you. Your brothers and sisters, Abba and Mommy, are still waiting for you to come home. ...... "Finally, I'll give you ten minutes to think about it, and when the ten minutes are up, we're going to launch a general attack." ……

The voices of osmanthus and fragrant plum were transmitted loudly through the loudspeaker, shaking the earth. The defenders of Liangyou heard it like a thunderbolt from the sky, trembling with trembling, and shouting like bullets and piercing daggers through the hearts of the enemy. They are so frightened that they don't possess their souls and have no intention of fighting again. The shouts of osmanthus and fragrant plum not only frightened the enemy. It has aroused the fighting spirit of the guerrillas and the common people, and their confidence in victory has been greatly increased. Mo Yun and Hou Liang showed satisfied smiles on their faces, and the comrades gave thumbs up and praised.

Time passed minute by minute, but Liangyou was surprisingly quiet. Suddenly, "Lao Tzu is gone!" A soldier shook off his gun with all his might. Ran out of position. At this moment, as if the world had woken up from its slumber, many soldiers followed suit, threw down their weapons and ran out of the trenches. The officers shouted and saw that they could no longer control the situation, so Mo Tong took the carbine from the guards around him and fired at the mutinous soldiers. hit a few people at once, and shouted, "Damn! Who runs again. Who did Lao Tzu kill! "Killed a few people, and then the troops were stopped.

Mo Yun looked at his watch, it was time, he waved his hand and shouted, "Comrades! Come on! Suddenly, the charge horn sounded in the sky, "Rush! "Kill!" The shouts of killing shook the sky, and the guerrillas, militia and the masses marched forward bravely, like a surging flood, unstoppable, and killed together in Liangyou Town.

"Retreat! If it's late, be a prisoner! Ruan Shaoxiong pulled Mo Tong, and Mo Tong saw that the general trend had gone, so he had to order: "Withdraw!" Evacuate! Under the leadership of Nguyen Shaoxiong, the remaining men and horses of the first battalion fled for their lives from a small road on the lower mountain ridge on the right side of Liangyou Town. Since Ruan Shaoxiong has not been active in this area for a day or two, he is already very familiar with the terrain in this area, and it is not very difficult for him to find a way to escape.

The guerrillas took advantage of the situation and captured the town of Liangyou. Mo Yun ordered the troops to stop the pursuit, and everyone was a little puzzled, why not take advantage of the victory to pursue the enemy and destroy the enemy? Mo Yun told everyone that "the poor are not chasing", our strategic goal has been achieved, and the phased tasks have been completed.

The guerrillas did not stay in Liangyou Town, but took the initiative to withdraw from Liangyou Town and dispersed to various villages. When Mo Yun was leaving, he called the cadres together and held a meeting. At the meeting, Mo Yun stressed that all units should go deep among the masses, fully mobilize the masses, mobilize the masses, strive to enhance the enthusiasm of the masses in supporting and participating in the revolutionary struggle, and lay the foundation and make preparations for fighting big and tough battles in the future. Through study, the cadres have a clear understanding of the current situation of the revolutionary struggle, understand that in order to fight a big and tough battle, it is necessary to mobilize the masses and rely on the principles of the masses, and clearly define the tasks and tasks to be done in the next stage, thus overcoming the idea of detachment from the masses and arrogance and strengthening their confidence in the victory of the revolution. After the meeting, Mo Yun led the No. 1 Squadron back to the Leyuan guerrilla area, and the Tanliang Guerrilla Brigade not only strengthened preparations for military struggle, but also sent cadres to go deep into the villages to do a good job in mobilizing and arming the masses, so as to make full preparations for meeting the counterattack of the Kuomintang reactionaries.

Mo Tong, the commander of the first battalion of the security regiment, took the remnants of the troops and returned to the security regiment station in Longcheng. Mo Tongren didn't dare to see Guo Lian, so he begged Ruan Shaoxiong: "Brother! Help. Ruan Shaoxiong said: "What can my little action team leader help you?" Mo Tong said: "For the sake of the brotherhood between you and me, who were born and died, and fought bloodily with the 'Turkish Communist Party', plead for me in front of the regimental seat, maybe my little brother and I can be saved from the death penalty." Ruan Shaoxiong said: "I'll do my best!" If it doesn't work, I don't know. The two came to Guo Lian's office.

"Report!"

"Come in!" Guo Lian was taken aback when he saw Mo Tong, this kid is not guarding Liangyou Town, what are you doing when you come back? An ominous feeling came to his heart, for the past two days, he has been unable to get through the phone from Liangyou, I don't know what the situation is there, he is in a hurry, but this kid is back.

"How can you leave the army without my order?" Guo Lian asked, but his eyes glanced at Ruan Shaoxiong, this person was a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, and he couldn't remember it for a while.

"I'm Ruan Shaoxiong, the leader of the special operations team of the Secret Bureau, don't you remember Commander Guo? We met a few times during the last encirclement and suppression of the Tanliang guerrilla brigade, and I was Yuan Longbiao's subordinate. Ruan Shaoxiong saw Guo Lian's puzzled eyes, and before he could speak, he also introduced himself before Mo Tong answered.

"Oh! Come to think of it, it's Team Leader Ruan of the Secret Bureau, you are not staying in Liangyou, why did you come here? With this reminder, Guo Lian immediately remembered those people who collected intelligence back and forth in the last encirclement and suppression process before and after Yuan Longbiao, and this person was the leader. But how did he get mixed up with Mo Tong, I remembered, a few days ago, the stationmaster of the Secret Bureau Xiao called to report that according to the intelligence officer's intelligence, the "Turkish Communist Party" was going to attack Liangyou Town, and asked him to make preparations quickly, and it seems that the intelligence officer mentioned is this person.

Ruan Shaoxiong glanced at Mo Tong with his eyes, meaning that you can answer.

"Report ...... Report to the group! Good friend is lost! Mo replied tremblingly.

"What? What did you say? Guo Lian couldn't believe his ears, "You say it again!" "How is this possible? With the strength of the guerrillas, it is absolutely impossible to capture Liangyou, and it must be Mo Tong's dereliction of duty and a sneak attack by the guerrillas.

"Tuanza, Liangyou is really lost." Mo Tong's voice was as small as a mosquito and a fly.

Guo Lian glanced at Ruan Shaoxiong for verification, Ruan Shaoxiong nodded, Guo Lian, who had been confirmed, was angry now, how could he explain to the 15th Commissioner's Office if he lost his good friend? Thinking of this, Guo Lian was so angry that he threw his hat on the table and scolded: "Damn! Lao Tzu killed you! As he spoke, he pulled out his pistol and quickly loaded it, shooting at Mo Tong is shot, fortunately Ruan Shaoxiong next to him was already on guard, and quickly raised Guo Lian's gun up, "Bah! "A gunshot rang out, and bullets hit the beams. This is not the first time that Ruan Shaoxiong has learned the violent character of this head Guo, in the process of encirclement and suppression last time, he went on a killing spree, not only shooting innocent civilians, but also shooting subordinates who were unfavorable in battle, and he was never relentless. If it weren't for Ruan Shaoxiong's precautions, Mo Tong's life would be gone, he didn't help Mo Tong for anything else, just because he felt that Mo Tong was also a man, conscientious and conscientious for the party-state, and he couldn't just die at the gunpoint of his boss, which is really unfair to people who are really loyal to the party-state! If this continues, who else wants to continue to work for the party-state?

Mo Tong was shocked by the sound of the gunshot, he felt that his soul had floated, and it took him a long time to return to the ground, and he finally came to his senses that he was not dead.

Ruan Shaoxiong persuaded Guo Liandao: "Captain Guo! Don't you want to know how Liangyou Town was lost? When asked by the Commissioner's Office, how do you answer? This question stabilized Guo Lian, he calmed down, walked back to the desk, put the pistol on the table, sat down on the chair, and said, "Give you a chance, let's talk!" What's going on? Mo Tong said the situation one by one, and then said: "Mo Tong is derelict in his duties, if he wants to kill, he must obey the disposal of the regiment." Guo Lian's hand slowly stretched out to the pistol, and when Ruan Shaoxiong saw this, he hurriedly said, "Commander Guo, can I say a few words?" ”

"Speak!" Ruan Shaoxiong said: "Originally, the few men and horses of the Tanliang guerrilla brigade were not enough to seize Liangyou Town, but the guerrillas mobilized so many reinforcements from various guerrilla areas, we only knew one of them, and we did not know the other. What's more, Battalion Commander Mo was not derelict in his duties, he not only fought a decisive battle with an enemy several times larger than himself, killing and wounding a large number of 'Turkish Communists', but also successfully ambushed a support army of the 'Turkish Communists', killing eight people, including a detachment leader, which can be said to have made great contributions.
