Chapter 42: The palace steward came to persuade him to surrender
After entering the division headquarters, Ximen Jian saw that the logistics personnel of the division headquarters, including the adjutant and the combat and communications personnel, were already in place, and they were all busy with their respective work.
Ximen Jian wanted to summon the officers at the battalion level to study and discuss the strategy he had been brewing all night last night, so he asked Xiaohuzi to go out and give orders.
Subsequently, Ximen Jian walked into the room where Zhan Dongyang was recuperating from his injuries and visited his condition.
These days, Ximen Jian visited Zhan Dongyang almost once a day, and hoped that his injuries would heal as soon as possible and hand over the military power to him as soon as possible, because he felt that he was really overwhelmed by the heavy responsibility, and this coach's laborious errand was really difficult!
"Big brother, are you getting better?" Ximen Ken asked as soon as he walked into the room.
Zhan Dongyang was sitting on the edge of the kang, under the service of several guards, eating Chinese herbal medicine, when he saw Ximen Jian coming to visit him again, he said: "Brother is here, don't come to see me if you are busy with military affairs." ”
"I'm ......" Ximen Jian stopped talking, he didn't want Zhan Dongyang to know his embarrassment.
Zhan Dongyang's sharp eyes seemed to have discovered Ximen Jian's emotions, and in order to cheer him up, he said: "My injury is much better, brother, you can do it boldly and with confidence, eldest brother believes in your talent, Longtou Mountain will definitely be able to turn the corner!" ”
Then, Ximen Jian came up with the plan he had been thinking about almost all night last night.
"This ......" Zhan Dongyang heard this, nodded after a long time and said, "Well, take a little risk, but this is the only way to go." These days, the puppet army is besieging and not fighting, which is wasting our food, grass and will, but I think they are about to attack the mountain, and your kind of thinking is basically consistent with my thinking, I think it is feasible. ”
Ximen Jian took a closer look at the injuries on Zhan Dongyang's body and said, "Then let's act tonight, your body is okay, right?" ”
Zhan Dongyang shook his arm and said, "It's okay, it's not a big problem." Brother, don't delay the transfer because of my small injury, it's still a little hard to fight, there's no problem with the transfer, I can go. ”
"No, no, no......" Ximen Jian hurriedly said: "Big brother, let the brothers pull you away in a car." ”
As soon as Ximen Jian returned to the division headquarters room, one of the guards said, "Deputy Division Commander Ximen, the spy you sent out has returned." ”
"Oh......" Ximen Jian's eyes lit up: "Let him come in and see me." ”
Before he could finish speaking, a brother dressed as a merchant, with a bloody face and wounds, stumbled in.
Ximen Jian was shocked: "Brother, how did you make it look like this?" ”
The brother said with tears in his voice, "Report to Deputy Commander Simon that my brother came back after picking up a life." ”
"Oh, what about the other nine brothers?"
"They...... They all ......."
"Say it quickly, don't spit it out."
"A few days ago, according to your orders, our ten scouts arrived at the secret stronghold of Yanghugou on the border of Changbai Mountain on the night of departure, but they were also blocked by the little devils. The battalion commander of the stronghold Niu led the brothers to rush out three times but did not rush out, and also lost more than 20 brothers. ”
Ximen Jian asked, "What about later?" ”
"Later, we disguised ourselves as merchants, only to get lucky, and along the way were chased and killed by the Japanese puppet army, and when we returned to the foot of the mountain last night, I and another brother were left, but the camp camp of the Japanese puppet army at the foot of the mountain was very well guarded, and the camp tent was connected one by one, we had no choice but to wait until the second half of the night, before approaching the foot of the mountain, and when the brothers on the mountain were talking to each other, they found out again, and the brother was arrested in order to cover me to come back to report the news, and the little devil was seriously injured and arrested......"
"Huh?" When Ximen Jian heard this, he was very surprised, and said that this little devil was besieged to death, his eyes spewed angry flames, and he sat down weakly on the chair, waved his hand and whispered, "Go down and recuperate." ”
At this time, ten regiment commanders and thirty battalion commanders, including Hu Lanhua, Zhao Dakang, Liu Lianhua, and Zhang Zhengliang, who came to discuss the matter, arrived at the division headquarters one after another.
After Zhan Dongyang was rescued, Longtoushan established ten regimental battalions according to the original establishment, each regiment had 2,000 people, although there were not as many people as the original, but after all, the establishment was restored in just ten days, which was also a miracle created by Ximen Jian's transformation of the army.
Because there were still officers who had not arrived, Orchid came over and asked tenderly, "I haven't slept all night?" ”
Ximen Jian was still immersed in the atmosphere just now, and seemed to ignore Orchid's question, Lotus sat aside, but her face flushed, she quickly lowered her head and looked at the ground.
The entire division headquarters was surprisingly silent, the air seemed to condense, and occasionally there was a long sigh or two......
While the crowd was silent, a guard came in again to report that the little devil had sent a messenger to ask for an audience.
Ximen Jianhu raised his head and said angrily: "Let him in!" ”
The person who came was a middle-aged man, and he was a man with a slender body, a thin face, and a very obscene man. His body was like a big shrimp, and after he walked into the door, he nodded three times in one step, and a pair of small mouse eyes were dripping and wandering.
"Huh?" Ximen Jian was taken aback, it turned out to be Zhuang Youcai, the housekeeper of the Golden Hook Palace, how could he be a lobbyist for the little devil?
Hearing the sound of a weapon, Liu Lianhua suddenly pulled out a long sword, she heard her sister say that it was this Zhuang Youcai and the big landlord Wang Lanchen who were in cahoots, and once beat her sister to the ground, she was full of blood, and her eyes were red, so she wanted to slash the enemy Zhuang Youcai!
"You are Zhuang Youcai, who once beat my sister to death with your master?" The long sword in Liu Lianhua's hand "brushed" to the ground, stretched out under Zhuang Youcai's choked throat, and he was so frightened that he suddenly stopped, stretched his thin long neck and asked tremblingly:
"This beauty, who are you, why don't you understand what you are saying?"
Liu Lianhua shook the long sword in her hand again, and said sharply: "My sister is Mother Liu who was once whipped by you in the palace!" ”
"Huh? Mama Liu...... She...... Hasn't she already been rescued? ”
"Hmph, let your old boy die and understand, I am her sister Liu Lianhua. Now I'll avenge my sister! ”
"Don't, don't...... As the saying goes, if the two countries fight each other, they don't cut ......," Zhuang Youcai said with fright.
"Hahaha......" Simon laughed heartily and said, "You can also be called an envoy?" I think you're just a bunch of stinky shit! ”
"Hahaha......" Everyone burst out laughing, and suddenly drove away the dull atmosphere just now, and Zhuang Youcai was also laughed so much that he couldn't find the north.
Liu Lianhua saw Ximen Jian's eyes, so she drew her long sword back.
"Oops...... Oh my god, I'm scared to death! Zhuang Youcai let out a sigh of relief, hurriedly wiped his sweat, tidied up his clothes, glanced at Ximen Jian, and thought about how to persuade him to succeed......
