Chapter 373: The Battle of Wuhan
readx; Matsushita Yasujiro retreated sharply, and the high-flying rifle followed with a backhand, this gun was used as a stick, this move was originally created by Liu Xiaohu when he was playing against Liu Xiaohu, and it happened to be used at this time. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
I saw Goofy holding the barrel of the gun upside down and smashing the top of Yasujiro Matsushita with the heavy butt. Matsushita Yasujiro didn't have time to wipe the blood from his nose and raised his knife to open it. Who knew that Gao Fei's move was just a gesture, and at the same time as Matsushita Yasujiro raised his knife, he had already opened his chest and abdomen down, which was a great opportunity for Gao Fei. His rifle was only halfway through his turn, and it had just been stained with the knife raised by Matsushita Yasujiro, but it turned one hundred and eighty degrees, and the body of the gun slid through Gao Fei's hand like a snake, and the bayonet was already facing forward, and it became a killing momentum again, going straight to Matsushita Yasujiro's lower abdomen, if it pierced into it, no one had to think about it.
Matsushita Yasujiro was taken aback, it was too late to dodge, and the bayonet had already arrived in front of him. In desperation, he could only drop the war knife, and instinctively grabbed at the shiny bayonet with both hands, trying to prevent the bayonet from piercing his abdomen. His hand was also extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had grasped Goofy's bayonet. The sharp blade of the bayonet cut a deep bloody hole in Matsushita Yasujiro's hands, and the skin and flesh burst out, and the blood also came out instantly, but finally blocked Goofy's shock wave and did not let the bayonet pierce his abdomen.
Gao Fei stopped, although he did not send the bayonet into the enemy's body, but looking at the blood on his hands, he knew that his hands were seriously injured at this time, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to hold things in the future.
Matsushita Yasujiro let go of his hands, his hands were already a blur of flesh and blood, and he fell to his knees in pain, and he screamed, obviously no longer able to fight back.
Xiong Sanwa next to him was dumbfounded, until this time Fang woke up like a dream, jumped up, knocked Matsushita Yasujiro to the ground, untied his belt, and tied his feet.
Gao Fei gasped, stepped forward and picked up the war knife he had snatched, returned it to the sheath, and said coldly: "Although this knife belongs to your commander, you can't take it away." Your chief died in China, he died innocently, and so did you! ”
Matsushita Yasujiro looked at Goofy silently and didn't say a word, but Goofy could see his fear in his shining eyes. This devil is also an ordinary person, and like most people, he is equally afraid of death.
"Sanwa, bandage him!"
Xiong Sanwa was only slightly stunned, and then ripped off his leggings and bandaged Matsushita Yasujiro. This Matsushita Shaozuo is very obedient, looking at Xiong Sanwa, without saying a word, as if he has returned to before, he is a mute!
Several gunshots rang out outside the Land Temple, and Goofy's nervous heart rose to his throat. He knew that this was Han Bingqi in action.
It turned out that Han Bingqi's people had also noticed Yangliu Lake, and when Gao Fei called, Han Bingqi received a secret report from his subordinates that there was a suspicious ship moored in Yangliu Lake, and this ship was still a small steamer. According to common sense, small steamers are not uncommon on the Yuan River, but Yangliu Lake is a remote waterway, which leads to Lishui, and most of the grain ships are on this waterway, and there are lake bandits to rob from time to time, so many materials coming down from Lishui would rather go ashore in Tianjin City and then transfer to Wuhan by land than take Yangliu Lake. The small steamer is the fastest ship near Wuhan, compared with the ancient sailing ships in the Yuanjiang River and Dongting Lake, it is also the most advanced shipping tool in this era.
When he received Gao Fei's call, Han Bingqi immediately judged that the small steamer on Yangliu Lake was actually his own boat, and he didn't have to think about it, if Gao Fei's wife and son were arrested, it would definitely be on this boat. Therefore, at that time, he and Gao Fei set such a plan to lure the snake out of the hole, on the one hand, let Gao Fei deal with the mute, and on the other hand, send someone to attack the small steamer on Yangliu Lake to find a way to rescue Lao Hei's wife and children.
The place where the gunshots rang out was in the direction of the Yangliu Lake Wharf, which was not too far from the Land Temple. So, Goofy's first reaction was to go over and take a look.
When Goofy and Xiong Sanwa escorted Matsushita Yasujiro to the pier of Yangliu Lake, what they saw was a confrontation between the two sides.
On this deserted dock, except for more than 30 people from Han Bingqi's plainclothes team and more than a dozen crew members on the small steamer, there were no other people, which was also the main body of confrontation between the two sides. Han Bingqi's plainclothes team lay on the embankment outside the dock, rifles and machine guns pointed at the crew, who were obviously suppressed by the plainclothes team, hiding behind the side of the ship, not daring to show their heads.
The small steamer already had many bullet marks on it, but it was anchored on the dock and could not be moved.
When Gao Fei came over, Han Bingqi also saw them, came to his side, looked at Matsushita Yasujiro who was escorted by Xiong Sanwa, nodded, and said to him: "Senior Commander Gao, you finally caught him!" ”
"Yes!" Goofy nodded, and at the same time asked with some eagerness, "How are you doing here?" ”
Han Bingqi shook his head and said helplessly: "My people sneaked into the ship and destroyed the ship's steam engine, but another group of people who went to save their younger siblings and Xiaohu were discovered by them, fought, and were driven off the ship by them, and now they are facing each other like this." They couldn't run either, and we didn't dare to break in because we had hostages in their hands. ”
Han Bingqi looked at the captured Matsushita Yasujiro, and suddenly had an idea, and ordered one of his translators to shout to the people on the boat in Chinese, which meant that the hostages should be exchanged, and as he spoke, he pushed Matsushita Yasujiro to the embankment so that everyone on the boat could see it.
At this time, Lao Hei finally got the news that his wife and son had been kidnapped, and his eyes were staring straight ahead, looking at his wife and children
When he understood Han Bingqi's intentions, Lao Hei suddenly said: "Stationmaster Han, Matsushita Yasujiro is a young commander of the enemy army, and we arrested him, whether it is from propaganda or strategy, it is very useful." My cousin and Xiaohu are just ordinary people! ”
Han Bingqi glared at him: "Lao Hei, I value your mind as a responsibility for the country, but people can't be too ruthless." This devil you captured is no more than a prisoner of war at best, what can you use? But Xiuxiu and Xiaohu are different, one is your wife, and the other is your son! The lives of our Chinese should be worth more than devils, even if it is a woman and a baby! This is not your regimental headquarters, everything is up to me, and if there is anything to say about it, I will take it all! ”
However, during the negotiation, there were gunshots from the small steamer, and three gunshots rang out, and the three crew members turned over and fell into the water, and everyone couldn't help but watch. Han Bingqi took out a telescope and looked at the boat, and after looking at it, he sighed: "I didn't expect your wife to be so strong!" As he spoke, he handed the telescope to Lao Hei.
Lao Hei took the binoculars in a daze, looked towards the bow of the boat, and saw Widow Yuan holding a gun, aiming at a leader opposite, and this leader was holding a baby in his hand, don't think about it, it must be Xiaohu. The leader leaned against the side of the boat, and as soon as Widow Yuan fired, he would throw the child into the water. Obviously, it was Widow Yuan who broke free from the shackles and snatched a gun, and with her bandit surname, wanted to snatch her son from the hands of the enemy.
The child cried in the autumn wind, and the sound carried to the shore with the wind, and Goofy couldn't help but tremble, and the telescope did not hold steady, and fell to the ground.
Matsushita Yasujiro also saw this scene on the embankment, and he couldn't help shouting loudly in his words, but everyone couldn't understand it. The interpreter explained: "He's shouting, don't hurt that kid, he's innocent!" ”
Gao Fei and Han Bingqi both looked at this Panasonic Shaozuo in a daze, but it turned out that this guy was not a person who had lost his conscience.
Widow Yuan finally gave in, and she wept bitterly and put down the gun in her hand, the kind of cry that was hoarse and heartbreaking, a mother's desperate wail. The crew from behind rushed up and restrained her once more.
For Goofy, this was really a heart-pounding moment, even for a long time to come, there was no such experience that made him walk on thin ice, although it was not he who was caught, but it was more uncomfortable than he was caught. It's all his own fault, and he's scolding himself like this over and over again.
The negotiation resumed, and the leader agreed to change people, and at the same time asked Han Bingqi to provide him with a spare part for the steam engine, which was sold in Wuhan and was not difficult to buy, so Han Bingqi agreed after weighing it again and again.
Time was passing little by little, looking at the widow Yuan holding her son on the bow deck, Gao Fei's heart was like a knife. Before dark, the steam engine of this small steamer was finally repaired, and looking at the black smoke that suddenly came out of the chimney, Gao Fei and Han Bingqi both knew that the critical time had come.
The two sides were like exchanging prisoners on the battlefield, allowing two people to run back to their positions from each other's positions at the same time, where Widow Yuan had to carry her son from the boat and run back to the embankment on the shore along the pedal of the ferry, while Matsushita Yasujiro was just the opposite, and this distance was at least more than two hundred meters. A woman holding a child will naturally not be faster than the young and strong Shaozuo, even if this Shaozuo is tied with his hands, so Gao Fei and Han Bingqi are very worried, for fear that after Matsushita Yasujiro jumps on the boat, Xiuxiu has not yet run back to the embankment, in this case, she is likely to be shot by the enemy.
Both sides released people at the same time, Widow Yuan held her son and ran towards Matsushita Yasujiro, at the moment of misalignment, Xiuxiu held her son with one arm, and one hand was free to punch Matsushita Yasujiro's lower abdomen, she hated this mute who took their mother and son to the enemy ship. Matsushita Yasujiro was defenseless, and his hands were tied behind his back, and he couldn't resist at all, only feeling a pain in his lower abdomen and almost falling. He staggered to the side of the boat, but he was already one step behind Xiuxiu. It was not Yue himself who put the black gun, but Xiong Sanwa. It's a pity that Xiong Sanwa's very accurate marksmanship has some deviations today, and he is so angry that he loses his normalcy and has no crosshairs.
Lao Hei grabbed Widow Yuan and pulled her from outside the embankment to his arms, and the family of three rolled on the ground, and a bullet flew past them. The other party also returned a shot.
For a while, the gunshots rang out again, but at this time, it was useless.
The enemy's small steamer had lifted anchor and slowly sailed away from the dock. Gao Fei got up from the ground, didn't care about picking up his wife and children, snatched the rifle from Xiong Sanwa's hand, and shot at the devil leader who was heading to the cabin, and the leader fell in response, presumably killed.
Maybe it was Gao Fei's magic gun, Matsushita Yasujiro never showed his head again, until the ship went far away and was out of the effective shooting distance, they heard Matsushita Yasujiro's half-baked Chinese shouting: "Gao Feijun, I will come back!" Then I will compete with you in Wuhan City! ”
"I'll wait for you!" Goofy shouted without showing any weakness.
Although he did not completely annihilate the enemy, Han Bingqi still successfully thwarted an infiltration operation of the Yue army, and did not let them infiltrate the city of Wuhan in large numbers before the war, and was rewarded by the top for this. Of course, when writing the report, he did not say a word about the fact that Gao Fei's unit had been invaded by the enemy, but only said that the 26th Division had helped some people.
After experiencing a lot of life and death, Widow Yuan has also grown a lot, no longer the arrogant and unreasonable shrew, with more rational surnames and more gentleness.
Han Bingqi admired Lao Hei's wife very much, and once jokingly said to Lao Hei: "I think my younger brother and sister are really suitable to be a female spy, she is bold and spicy, but she is as careful as silk, when I want to recruit people here, you have to let her go to me." ”
Lao Hei only thought that Han Bingqi was joking, and did not take it to heart. In his opinion, it is true that Widow Yuan brought her son well
The situation is becoming more and more tense day by day, the war in Wuhan is already imminent, and the enemy is deploying troops on a large scale. Leaving Widow Yuan's mother and son in Wuhan still made Gao Fei feel uneasy, and he still asked Widow Yuan to take Xiaohu back to the rear. This time, just in case, he specially called Xiong Sanwa over and asked him to personally send the mother and son home.
The military committee in Yucheng also became very concerned about the situation in Wuhan.
In the face of the sudden increase in the build-up of the Japanese army, all the people had a premonition that a big battle was about to start again.
The Fifth Theater faced the 11th Army of the Chinese Army, which occupied Central China, and the commander at this time was Isamu Yokoyama. This Yokoyama was a graduate of the 21st class of the Army Noncommissioned Officer School, and served as the commander of the Fourth Army in the Kwantung Army stationed in northeast China, and was transferred to the 11th Army in Wuhan as commander in December 1942. The predecessor of the 11th Army was General Tsukada Tsukashi, and this commander flew over Taihu Lake in Anhui Province by plane, and was hit by an anti-artillery company of the 173rd Division stationed there during a test of artillery, and died in Huangquan. After Yokoyama Yong arrived, the first thing he did was to launch the Jiangbei Campaign, which eliminated the 128th Division of Wang Laohu, which was entrenched in Hubei in one fell swoop, and won a great victory. Immediately afterwards, Yokoyama Yong launched what he called the Battle of Jiangnan, which went very smoothly in the early stage of the campaign, but in the later stage of the campaign, he was defeated under the stone plaque, so he stole chickens and rice, and was beaten to ashes. Although this action is definitely an order from the Tokyo base camp, it is difficult to say that it is not Isamu Yokoyama who wants to take revenge.
Li Zongren, commander of the Fifth Theater of Operations, came to Wuhan and was busy with many dignitaries inside and outside Wuhan for a while.
Naturally, after all these high-sounding entertainments, Li Zongren closed the door and gathered these high-ranking generals who led the troops in a secret place for a meeting.
As soon as the military meeting began, the military meeting went straight to the point, and the operational staff officers of the Fifth Theater commented on the situation of the enemy and us, and all the officers and commanders listened attentively. Listen to the comments of this operational staff officer.
After this operational staff officer finished speaking, Bai Chongxi walked to the map and said to everyone: "Everyone has seen that this time the enemy has mobilized the 3rd, 13th, 39th, 68th, and 1165th divisions and the 58th, 40th, and 60th divisions, a total of eight and a half divisions, and the contract of 150,000 troops is suppressed opposite our Fifth and Ninth Theaters, and mainly aimed at our Fifth War Zone, there should be 100,000 troops, and if Yang Yuyi's puppet army division is added, it can reach about 13 to 140,000. With such a large-scale deployment of troops, the enemy's intentions can be imagined, and he is sure to attack us again. I don't need to say more about the purpose of the enemy's attack at this time, everyone understands it! ”
Everyone nodded their heads.
At this time, Goofy didn't say a word, he was immersed in the memories of the fight with Matsushita Yasujiro not long ago, and vaguely remembered Matsushita Yasujiro's last shout, the guy swore to tell Goofy that he would come back and compete with him in Wuhan City. That should be Matsushita Yasujiro's true thoughts, and it should be basically formable, otherwise he wouldn't have shouted it like this. Yasujiro Matsushita must have known part of the enemy's plans, which he had inadvertently revealed.
"Goofy!" Li Zongren suddenly called Gao Fei's name, which woke him up from his contemplation.
"Here!" Goofy replied loudly and stood up from his seat.
Li Zongren's eyes glanced at the generals seated, these generals were all veterans of the Fifth War Zone, and there were not many who changed their positions, and when they heard Chief Sun directly shouting Gao Fei's name, everyone quieted down and wanted to hear what this young man thought.
Li Zongren looked at Gao Fei's young and energetic face, and felt a little relieved, he hadn't seen him for a while, this guy had not lost his original handsomeness in addition to being much darker and thinner, but the scar on his face showed his manly spirit more and more. "Tell me about it!" Li Zongren asked him.
Gao Fei nodded, smiled again, and then said, "Actually, you already have the right answer to this question, do you need me to talk about it again?" ”
Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi glanced at each other and did not answer immediately. And everyone sitting on the seat also looked at him stunned, and a division commander couldn't help but ask, "Senior Commander, what did you say?" ”
Gao Fei still had the same smiling face, and said calmly: "Everyone, Chief Li and Chief Bai came to Wuhan in person, will they do anything else?" ”
