Chapter 761: All-round counterattack (1)

Located in Baoding, which is located on the Pinghan line in the central part of Hebei Province, it is an ancient city with a history of more than 2,200 years, since the Yuan and Ming dynasties, it has been a strategic place to defend Beijing and Tianjin, after more than 500 years of wind and rain, the towering city wall and the towering city tower, standing silently in the cold wind, and the vicissitudes of life and loneliness appear incomparably lonely under the gloomy sky. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Baoding Railway Station was built outside the old city of Xiguan, along the wide Xiguan Street, across the moat over the stone bridge through the city gate to enter the city. After years of development, the moat to the railway line this east and west width of more than 600 meters, north and south long three kilometers of the area has become the distribution center of the industrial and commercial and transportation industry in central Hebei, row upon row of commercial shops are bustling and extraordinary, through the southeast and northwest streets and alleys on both sides of the dwellings, the voices of people are boiling, chickens and dogs smell each other, the sound of selling, the neighing of horses, the sound of axles, the shouts one after another, it seems that the clouds of war slowly surging south from outside the customs have not affected the prosperity of this important military and industrial and commercial town of Hebei.

At 10 o'clock in the morning is when the Xiguan business district began to be lively, I don't know which well-informed person shouted a few times, many shop owners and leisurely people all flocked to the north bank of the south spring river and the famous Hongda freight yard on the west side of the railway, and were surprised to find that the large freight yard that originally belonged to the richest man in the city, covering an area of more than 20 acres, has been very different, a group of officers and soldiers of the Northeast Army Garrison Brigade have been loaded with live ammunition, and the freight yard has been surrounded by water, and on the Chaoyang Bridge leading to the freight yard from the south, there is a rejection horse wrapped around a circle of barbed wireThousands of officers and men wearing never-before-seen military uniforms and carrying long and short guns were sweating and busily, and one by one brand-new wooden boxes were removed from the train cars, piled up on the boards of carts and trucks, and were constantly shuttling between the trains and the heavily guarded warehouses to the west.

There are more and more citizens watching from a distance, and no one knows which part of the army is wearing strange military uniforms and variegated steel helmets.

Many people privately speculated that the more than a dozen heavy wagons of heavy wooden boxes unloaded were all filled with munitions, but no one knew what kind of munitions, and the ordinary munitions packing boxes were very different from the ordinary munitions packing boxes, these sturdy and fine wooden boxes were not marked with any words, and the citizens and people from all over the country looked at them stupidly, and all kinds of speculations and conjectures were like wings, and soon spread all over the ancient city and beyond.

The street in front of the station is facing the "Golden Dragon Tavern" at the exit of the station, it is a two-storey restaurant with a simple imitation of the Ming Dynasty style building, the gray tile Zhu door, the blue brick cornice, everywhere is filled with a strong atmosphere of ancient culture, the center of the bright yellow piping flag hanging high above the lintel is a big "wine" word, at a glance, you know that this covers an area of more than 600 square meters, has the restaurant of the back house of the middle courtyard is extraordinary.

At this time, in the street box on the second floor of the restaurant, a man about thirty-five or sixteen years old, with a high nose and a wide mouth and a ruddy face, sat by the window, leisurely drinking tea, a pair of eyes that were too peaceful to see emotion casually scanned the street where the flow of people shuttled, when a tall figure in a black police uniform walked out of the crowded crowd in the waiting room diagonally opposite, the red-faced man touched the stubble on his chin, and whispered to the old man in his early fifties opposite: "Second uncle, Shijun is here, you go down and tell him that I am waiting for him here." ”

"Okay."

The thin man wearing reading glasses and looking like a bookkeeper stood up, tidied up his dark gray cotton robe slightly, walked out of the private room with square steps, closed the door and glanced at the diners in the hall on the second floor, showed a kind smile, and said something decent and thoughtful, but his footsteps did not stop at all, and after a while, he walked down the stairs and walked casually towards the spacious door.

A few minutes later, the policeman with tall Kong Wu thick eyebrows quietly entered the private room, and after bringing the door, he naturally sat opposite the red-faced man, picked up the teacup in front of him, drank it in a few sips, wiped the two black beards on his lips, and nodded slightly to the red-faced man who refilled his tea:

"Big brother, the younger brother entered the station and inquired about the representative of the Northeast Army stationed at the station, and it was the Anjia Army guessed by the eldest brother who suddenly requisitioned the Zhoujia Hongda freight yard overnight, but which part did it belong to, and what was the specific number, and the military representative didn't know, and said to the younger brother that it was an order personally issued by the headquarters of the Marshal's Mansion, which is a top military secret, and no one is allowed to ask or talk, just do everything possible to meet the friendly troops stationed there. The younger brother pondered that this force, which numbered more than 2,000 officers and soldiers, was not small, and it was likely to be a unit directly under Boss An. ”

The red-faced man groaned for a moment after hearing this, and then asked, "What do the Zhou family have to say about the requisition of the freight yard?" ”

The two patrol captains in the junior brother sent the bureau to inquire, and the stingy Zhou Da shopkeeper didn't have any opinion this time, and his housekeeper was still smiling and happy, and he seemed very willing to be requisitioned by the army for his first freight yard in Baoding City. Eldest brother, according to your orders, the younger brother's police station and the Iron Pillar's special service team are closely monitoring the movements around the freight yard to ensure the smooth entry of Brother An Jiajun. Judging from the current situation, the wagons will be unloaded in another hour, and listening to the tone of the representative of the Northeast Army stationed at the station, the garrison brigade that went to assist will withdraw after unloading and handing over the goods, and the defense will be handed over to the An Jiajun itself. Li Shijun, who is in his early thirties, replied.

The red-faced man bowed slightly, took out a note from his arms and handed it to Li Shijun: "This is the fifth brother's edict, take a look." ”

When Li Shijun heard this, his face became very serious, he took the note and opened it, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and then he asked happily: "I've been waiting for this day, I didn't expect it to come so quickly, and the little brother was a little stunned for a while...... Fifth brother has returned to Beiping? ”

"Go back, such a big operation, he doesn't sit in Beiping, and he probably can't rest assured. An hour and a half ago, he got on the train from Zhengzhou, and he asked me to tell you that I can't visit your old man due to time urgency, so I left two boxes of special medicines and put them in your uncle's counter next door. The red-faced man whispered.

Li Shijun was very grateful: "Fifth brother's affection...... The little brother doesn't know what to do! ”

"Alas...... Are you and I all the same? Last year, you were still a depressed little policeman, with the help of the fifth brother, now you have been promoted to the deputy director, eldest brother, I died last year and had a home that I couldn't return, when would I think that the fifth brother could cancel the wanted warrant for me in the five provinces, and also take down this restaurant inn, so that my family can live a stable and prosperous life? Your sister-in-law often nagged in my ear, saying that she and the second elder had been afraid of me for more than ten years, and I never dreamed that you and my two sons would be able to stay in the United States now. Don't say anything outside of your eyes, just like your eldest brother, it's enough for you to die as a confidant! The red-faced man whispered with great emotion.

Li Shijun nodded heavily: "Yes!" We must not embarrass the fifth brother, you can rest assured, eldest brother...... By the way, the newspaper said that Boss An still stayed in Beiping and did not accompany the young marshal to the south to meet Chairman Chiang, I am afraid that he is waiting for our news at this time. As the saying goes, it takes a thousand days to raise soldiers, and now is the time for us to repay them. ”

The red-faced man lowered his voice again: "Su Qing led the seven brothers of the division and the fifth brother to Beiping, we are a little tighter here, but we must not be sloppy." If my guess is correct, the brothers in Shijiazhuang, Langfang, Tangshan, and even Tianjin will also be mobilized at the same time during these two days, so as to prevent the little Japanese spies from slipping away after the news spreads. This time, with a full-scale operation of this scale, you and I must not have the slightest difference, otherwise we will not have the face to see the brothers from all walks of life on the ground in Baoding Station. ”

"The younger brother understands that he will never make a difference, so the younger brother will go back and inform the brothers of the special service team to get ready." Li Shijun stood up, grabbed the big cap and fastened it to his head.

"Wait!"

The red-faced man then stood up: "Ito Trading Company has to leave it to me, I will personally take care of those sons of bitches and avenge the four girls of Uncle Wu's family in the south of the city!" ”

"Good! The younger brother listens to the eldest brother, and the other three points are handled by the younger brother. ”

……

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Tangshan Hotel.

An Yi and Huang Shaohong led the left and right generals to stride out of the door, standing neatly on the steps and waiting with a smile. Soon, three black cars drove into the gate of the compound in the salute of the officers and soldiers on duty, and slowly drove along the curved cement road to stop in front of An Yi and the others.

Shang Zhen, the former deputy commander of the Jin Sui Army and the current commander of the 32nd Army of the Northeast Army, did not wait for the adjutant to open the door, so he pushed the car door and got out of the carriage, solemnly returned to An Yi and the others who were respectfully saluting, put down his hand and greeted him enthusiastically, and smiled: "Second Chief An and Brother Ji Kuan, the two of them greet each other in vain, I can't stand it!" Haha......"

Huang Shaohong was also happy, and stretched out his hands to his senior brother in Baoding: "Why did Brother Qiyu say this? You are the junior brother and senior brother in the army, the younger brother and the elder brother An learned that Brother Qiyu came to visit, but they couldn't welcome them from afar, and they were worried about the poor etiquette, the elder brother can't be polite anymore, otherwise he will be ashamed to kill the little brother, haha! ”

Shang Zhen shook hands with Huang Shaohong affectionately, turned to An Yi, and saw that An Yi did not face him, but raised his foot and walked behind him, turned around knowingly, gently pulled Huang Shaohong's hand, and laughed in a low voice: "Ji Kuan, don't be surprised later, let's just watch quietly." ”

Among the five or six generals brought by Shang Zhen, a tall colonel wearing the gray-blue colonel coat of the Jin Sui Army stepped forward, held back his excitement, and saluted An Yi who came to him: "Sun Jiaqi, colonel and brigade commander of the independent brigade directly under the 32nd Army, I would like to pay my sincere respect to Chief An!" Please, sir! ”

"Little Chen vinegar of dog days, you're not dead, you? Why didn't you reply to Lao Tzu on a dog's day......"

An Yi stepped forward excitedly and slapped away Sun Jiaqi's saluting hand, and the senior brothers who had not seen each other for more than six years after graduating from Huangpu hugged tightly, their eyes moistened, and they could see that the eyes of a group of generals on the side were straight.

Sun Jiaqi wiped away the tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes, and gently pushed away An Yi, who was looking him up and down: "It's okay, the injury in the abdomen has long been healed, and the shrapnel on the leg has also been taken out, it's okay...... It's you, the junior brother Pang Guojun of the Northwest Army wrote a letter to the foolish brother, saying that your Wuchang injury was not light, and soon there was news that you were injured in Fengxin, and the younger brother died in a hurry, but at that time, the foolish brother had just entered my Jinsui army not long ago, and he was an engineer instructor in the headquarters teaching brigade, so he couldn't go south to see you...... Later, the Second Northern Expedition arrived in Beijing, and Brother Yu's engineer battalion was transferred to Zhangjiakou, and when he heard the news of your assassination, he finally took leave to rush to Beijing, but you had already been sent back to Nanjing. You also know what happened in the future, it's not that I don't want to reply to your letter, but that you are commanding the army to fight the Northwest Army on the front line of Nanyang, and the foolish brother has become your enemy, and he has become a homeless person in the end, how can I be embarrassed to reply to you? ”

An Yi's tears were about to flow down again: "Hearing the news that the monkey (Pang Guojun, an engineer scientist of the fourth phase of Huangpu) and the First Army of our Central Army died in the fierce battle of Lanfeng, I was so sad that I couldn't eat for a few days, and my heart is still faintly painful......"

Sun Jiaqi and An Yi's words made the surrounding generals sigh, thinking of the painful Central Plains War, and remembering the years when they originally worked together to go on the Northern Expedition. Standing in front of the steps one by one, they sighed and sighed with emotion, and their consciousness forgot what to do.
