Chapter 659: Saving the American Envoy (16)
Gao Hu said: "The others are in the dock. This dock was built to store ten large ships. Now there are only five of them parked inside. These boats are the lifeblood of that fishing tyrant. He would not allow anything to lose. So he divided the guards into two groups, one for the first half of the night and one for the second half of the night. ”
Gao Hai looked at Gao Hu with a puzzled face, and said, "How did you kid figure it out so clearly?!" ”
Gao Hu said with a smile: "I've been with the head of the regiment for so long, I still have these skills!" Who asked you to give up the guards who did not want to be the head of the regiment. Now you regret it, right?! ”
Gao Hai said: "It's not for the sake of you being my brother that I will give you this opportunity. Why haven't you become an official now, but you're starting to tremble?! ”
"That's it! I'm not poor with you! Hurry up and get to work! Gao Hu glanced at Gao Hai and slowly stepped back.
After about half an hour, a group of people wearing devil uniforms came out of the shadows, and the people of the escort team who were guarding around the dock immediately became alert when they saw the sudden appearance of people, and one of them shouted loudly while pulling the bolt of the gun: "What person?!" Stop it! Or shoot it! ”
The eldest son of the butler, who was sleeping in the dock, heard the shouting outside, came out of it with a gun, and scolded: "What roar?!" Howling mourning?! ”
"Captain, someone's coming!"
"Who?!" The butler's eldest son narrowed his eyes and looked ahead. When he saw a man in a devil's military uniform approaching them, the housekeeper's eldest son hurriedly shouted, "What are you stupid standing there for?!" It's Taijun here! After saying that, the housekeeper's eldest son ran in front of Gao Hu and Gao Hai in three steps and two steps, bowed his head and asked, "Taijun, is there anything wrong with coming so late?!" ”
Gao Hu pretended to be stiff and said, "We will take over this place tonight!" You're all going back! ”
"This ......" The son of the chief housekeeper heard that the devil was going to take over here, his eyes rolled, and he hurriedly said with a smiling face: "Taijun, it is windy and cold at night here!" I think it's better for us to take care of it! ”
"Eight Ga Ya Road!" Gao Hai shook his hand and slapped the housekeeper's eldest son, and said, "No more nonsense, it's dead, it's dead!" ”
"Oops!" The housekeeper's eldest son immediately covered his face that was hurt by Gao Hai and said, "I'll take people away!" I'll take them away! Then the housekeeper's eldest son shouted at the people behind him, "What are you doing standing stupidly?!" Don't hurry up and gather Lao Tzu! At the urging of the chief butler's son, the people of the convoy reluctantly gathered together, and under the watchful eyes of Gao Hu and Gao Hai and the soldiers of the special task force, they turned back and left step by step.
After the people of the escort team walked away, Gao Hai and Gao Hu immediately ran into the dock with people, and when they saw the boat parked inside, Gao Hai and Gao Hu's faces showed excited expressions, and Gao Hai said to Chunlin: "Let the regiment commander come over immediately." ”
"Yes!" Yu Chunlin answered, turned around and ran out of the dock.
When Hong Yu and the others arrived at the dock, the housekeeper's eldest son returned to the Li family's compound with people. Li Long's eldest son, Li Xiang, who happened to walk into the gate, saw the housekeeper's eldest son and asked, "Why don't you watch at the dock, what are you doing when you come back?!" ”
"Eldest young master, a group of Japanese came, and they forcibly drove us back. I argued with them and got beaten! The housekeeper's eldest son said with a bitter face.
"Japanese?!" Li Xiang frowned and muttered, "Impossible?!" Now those Americans are looking everywhere, how is it possible to come here?! After hesitating for a moment, Li Xiang said to the housekeeper's eldest son, "You guys, come with me to the dock to have a look." ”
"Yes!" The housekeeper's eldest son answered, and led people to follow Li Xiang out of the Li family's compound.
"Big young master, look! Our ship! When the people of the convoy saw the ship that had sailed to the middle of the Yangtze River, they immediately shouted. When Li Xiang heard the shout, he immediately looked at Jiang Xin's position. Looking at the ship that was getting farther and farther away, Li Xiang chuckled in his heart and exclaimed, "Not good! Then he said to the guards behind him: "You go back immediately and report to Taijun." Someone pretended to be Taijun and robbed our boat to cross the Yangtze River. ”
"Yes!" The guard answered, turned and left. ……
Just after ten o'clock in the evening, Hong Yu and the others arrived on the other side of the Yangtze River. After finding a place to hide, Hong Yu sent two groups of people to reconnoiter the surroundings, and at the same time sent a telegram to the regiment headquarters to inquire about the current situation of the independent regiment.
"Commissar, regimental commander telegram!" Gao Xiaohua walked in front of Gu Zhenghai with the telegram she had just received.
Gu Zhenghai took the telegram and said with a smile: "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive!" No, the telegram from the regiment commander came! ”
Zhang Guohua asked, "What did the head of the regiment say?!" ”
After reading the telegram, Gu Zhenghai handed the telegram to Zhang Guohua and said, "The regiment commander, they have already crossed the Yangtze River. ”
Zhang Guohua took the telegram and looked at it, and said, "The speed of the regiment commander is really fast?!" Then he asked: "Didn't he say on the last telegram that he was going to send Americans to Chongqing?!" Why did you go to Yan'an again?! ”
Gu Zhenghai said: "The head of the regiment has the consideration of the head of the regiment. I guess he just let off a smoke bomb that time and asked us to act with him. However, ......" hesitated slightly, and Gu Zhenghai changed his words and said: "Although the regiment commander and they have crossed the Yangtze River and are much safer, there are still many devils around. There are also a lot of bandits. If not handled properly, there is a good chance that it will fall short. Then Gu Zhenghai personally drafted a telegram and handed it to Gao Xiaohua, who was waiting on the side, and asked her to send the call back immediately.
After Gao Xiaohua left, Zhang Guohua asked, "Where do you think the head of the regiment will go next?!" ”
Gu Zhenghai said: "The head of the regiment has always been unconventional, and it is difficult for people to figure it out. I think it's better to do a good job in the regiment than to worry about it here. ”
Nothing was said all night, early the next morning. Yiluli had just walked into his office and hadn't had time to take a sip of water. Nobuo Takahashi hurriedly ran into Yiluli's office with a telegram and said, "Your Excellency General, I just got the news that the Heavenly Wolf may have crossed the Yangtze River near Jingmen Mountain last night. ”
"Nani?!" Yiluli was taken aback, hurriedly took the telegram, and read it. After three or four minutes, Yi Luli put down the telegram and said, "Didn't he say that he was going to send the Americans to Chongqing, why did he cross the Yangtze River again?!" Could it be that his real purpose is to take the American envoy to Yan'an?! ”
Nobuo Takahashi replied: "I can't rule out the possibility!" ”
"Yaga!" Yiluri's brows furrowed tightly, and he asked, "Where is Saburo Sato now?!" ”
Nobuo Takahashi said: "He has led his troops to the edge of the Yangtze River, ready to cross the river and continue to pursue the Heavenly Wolf!" ”
"Roar!" Yiluri said: "It seems that it is not possible to rely on Saburo Sato now. Immediately contact the 39th Division and ask them to send troops to intercept the Sky Wolf and the American envoy. ”
"Hey!" Nobuo Takahashi answered, turned around and ran out of Yiluri's office.
When Saburo Sato and his troops boarded the boat and prepared to cross the river, the commander of the 39th Division, Glada Raishiro, received a telegram from Yiluri. After reading the content of the telegram, Gaze Tian Lai Shiro's brows furrowed tightly, and after walking back and forth in the office twice, Gaze Tian Lai Shiro suddenly stopped and shouted, "Someone! ”
The attendant pushed the door and walked in from the outside, saluted, "Your Excellency, what are your orders?!" ”
Glaring at Rashiro Tian said: "Immediately send a telegram to Yamada Masakachi of the 232nd Wing, and ask him to immediately send troops to search all the places around Yichang, and the Sky Wolf and the American envoy must be found!" ”
"Hey!" The squire answered and walked away quickly. Not long after the attendant left, Chief of Staff George Naokei Osaku knocked on the door and walked into the office of Gazeda Lai Shiro, and saluted respectfully: "Your Excellency General, at this time, there is an urgent telegram from the military department!" ”
Glaring at Tian Lai Shiro said coldly: "Read! ”
"Hey!" Naokei Saji hurriedly read: "The U.S. envoy of the New Fourth Army's Independent Legislature, the Celestial Wolf Special Task Force, has arrived in your jurisdiction. Your unit must capture the US envoy alive and eliminate the Sky Wolf Einsatzgruppen! ……”
Without waiting for Naokei to finish reading the telegram, he grabbed the telegram in Naokei's hand with a glare, and quickly read the contents of the telegram at a glance, his brows furrowed tightly. After seven or eight minutes, Shiro glared at Tian and looked back at Naokei Saji, and asked, "Saji-kun, do you have any good ideas?!" ”
Naokei George replied: "Your Excellency, General, although our defense area is not large, we have deployed heavy troops in various places. It is simply impossible for the Sky Wolf to use the same method as the 13th Division to pass through our defense area. However, in addition to the National Army, there are also many Eighth Route Armies around our defense area. I'm worried that they'll join forces with the Eighth Route Army. If that's the case, it's going to be hard for us to keep them at bay. I propose to draw two battalions from our garrison, as well as a large number of Imperial Allies, to sweep up the places where they may be suspected. The Eighth Route Army, which forced the activities in our defense area, had no way to contact them. Isolate the wolf. That way, we have a chance to find them. ”
"Roar!" Glaing at Tian Laishiro, he nodded in agreement and said, "Saji-kun, I'll give you two hours to make a detailed battle plan. ”
"Hey! Please rest assured, Your Excellency! I'll go right away! With that, Naokage Saji turned around and walked towards the outside of Raishiro's office.
While Naokei Saji was busy making a battle plan, the two groups sent by Hong Yu returned to the temporary station. Gao Hai summarized the news they inquired about and reported: "Regiment commander, the road is full of devils' checkpoints. If we wanted to pass, it would be basically impossible. If you go around the side, you have to walk for at least two more days. In addition, there are many bandits in the surrounding mountains. Some of the bandits are very closely related to the devils. Although we are not afraid of them with our combat effectiveness, it will still be very troublesome if we attract little devils. ”
Hong Yu frowned and asked, "Are we trapped here by them like this?!" ”
