Chapter 1921 Iron Rope Crossing

The sun is rising, and the drops of morning dew dotted on the fresh grass on the grassland outside the mouth in summer quickly evaporate under the high temperature, and the wildflowers on the field are swaying with the wind, and become more and more vivid and beautiful after being washed by the dew overnight.

The lightning river flowing on the grassland in the northern suburbs of Guyuan County is crystal clear, because the terrain here is relatively soothing, the water flow is gentle like a mirror, and there are large reeds and grass growing on the tidal flats by the river, which are blown by the wind, rustling, everything looks so beautiful.

Unfortunately, a rout fleeing to the southeast broke the peace and tranquility here.

It was a disorganized, demoralized force, from officers to soldiers, all dressed in rags, panicked and anxious, and the serene scenery of the prairie set off the sinuous dragon, which seemed extremely incongruous.

From time to time, there were spearheads on horseback, running back from the front, reporting to the officers in the ranks, who were also on horseback.

In the middle of this long line, tanks, armoured vehicles and trucks can occasionally be seen majestically passing by. But some of the wounded in this unit, armed with wooden crutches and blood-soaked bandages, made the army look very embarrassed.

In the procession, the soldiers with rifles on their shoulders raised their heads from time to time to look into the air to the northwest, and their faces showed fear when the weeds on the steppes and the reeds by the rivers were blown by the wind and the "whirring" screeches appeared.

It turned out that this was a rout of the devils who had retreated from all over the Mongolian steppe and walked along the highway for a few days, and they had been bombed by the bombers of the An Jiajun who had been "buzzing" overhead for several days and dropping tons of bombs.

Just over two hours ago, this unit had just undergone a violent rain of bullets, and the grasslands on both sides of the highway at the foot of the Chahan Mountain, more than 10 kilometers away, were as if they had been ploughed over, and there were scenes of bombing everywhere within a few thousand meters.

Grenades, artillery shells, and all kinds of ordnance were blown up everywhere, and the corpses of dead and abandoned devil soldiers could be seen on both sides of the road, which was a terrifying image left after the air raids.

The air raids of the Anjia Army Air Force that may occur at any time brought great difficulties to the retreat of the Japanese army in this endless grassland.

Lieutenant General Yoshio Kamitsuki, commander of the Japanese army stationed in Mongolia on a tall horse, looked up at the northwest sky, waved his horsewhip, and said loudly:

"The whole army should not enter Guyuan County, accelerate to the southeast, according to this speed, as long as it takes another three or four hours, enter the Taipinggou and Laozhanggou in front, and then enter the range of the mountains of Dama, and then continue to advance to enter the range of Yanshan, then we will be truly safe!"

The chief of staff, Major General Chino Masao, said worriedly: "Commander, what about the troops stationed in Zhangjiakou?" ** is seizing the time to attack Zhangjiakou, and the main force of the Anjia army has also arrived in Zhangbei, Zhangjiakou's troops will definitely be difficult to resist, why not simply order the commander of Takeshita Yoshiharu's division to retreat to Guannai? ”

Yoshio last month shook his head:

"If it weren't for Zhangjiakou to attract the ** army from Chahar and Rehe, I'm afraid we would not only have to endure the attack of the Chinese Air Force on the way back, but also suffer from the harassment of the Eighth Route Guerrillas! Zhiye-kun, I don't know what you think of Lu Yixuan's blatant separation from the Anjia Army sequence reported by the Dispatch Army Headquarters? ”

Chino Masao said with a smile:

"The people of China just like infighting! If it weren't for their infighting, we wouldn't have been able to get our hands on the northern regions of Manchuria, Mongolia and China...... Now that they see the dawn of victory, the internal struggle is certainly even more intense...... I think that Lu Yixuan, the former Anjia army tiger general who has a huge threat to the empire, must have been bought by Chiang Kai-shek with a lot of money! I heard that during the Central Plains War, many generals under Feng Yuxiang were smashed by Chiang Kai-shek with money, so as to complete the reunification of China in name! ”

"This speculation is not unreasonable!"

Last month, Liangfu showed a hint of relief on his face: "In the current situation, Manchuria will definitely not be able to be saved, but the collective betrayal of the Anjia Army by the 30th Group Army of China may be an opportunity for us to keep the northern part of China!" Lu Yixuan's power is tantamount to slapping the face of the strongman in South China, and I believe that there will be twists and turns in the future!

"Chinese is the most face-conscious, and treats rebellion more cruelly than the enemy, and the An Jiajun will definitely retaliate in the future...... Once the Anjia army enters the customs, then the balance in the North China region will inevitably be broken, and the Nanjing government and **, who feel that their survival is threatened, will inevitably work together to deal with the expansion of the Anjia army.

"Because of this, I have already ordered Takeshita-kun to allow them to surrender if they face the attack of the Anjia army, but in the face of the attacks of other military forces in China, they must fight to the death! We just want to attract the An Jiajun into the customs and completely muddy the waters of North China......"

"Air raids—"

Last month, before Yoshio finished speaking, the Japanese army's marching column had already fallen into great chaos again with several screams. Yoshio Kamitsuki, who commanded the troops to conceal air defense with a horsewhip, was dragged off his horse by the chief of staff next to him, looking for a place to hide, and a large group of bombers appeared again in the northwest sky.

Almost instantly, the group flew over the panicked, hiding-lying marching procession, and a string of bombs fell. Last month, Yoshio and Masao Chino were dragged by several guards and fled to the reeds by the Lightning River, when a dense line of bullets hit them, and a large area of reeds was shortened.

About forty or fifty bombers circled at low altitude and recklessly carpet-bombed the entire marching army, and hundreds of tons of aerial bombs exploded violently when they landed, and the sputtered shell fragments were like sickles cutting grass, knocking the devil soldiers who could not hide to the ground.

Last month, Yoshio and the chief of staff lay on their stomachs in the half-human water in the reeds, and several guards pressed on the reeds on their backs to protect themselves from shrapnel and aviation bullets.

Last month, Yoshio was blinded and saw Takahashi Toshio Shosa, a communications staff officer, fall from his horse and fall into the grass on the side of the road - shrapnel broke his arteries and blood vessels, and blood gushed out of his throat like a fountain.

"Boom—"

At this time, an ammunition truck parked on the road was hit by a bomb and exploded, the flames soared into the sky, fragments flew everywhere, and in the rolling flames, there were continuous explosions like firecrackers, and the ignited bullets and warheads continued to fly from the ammunition truck in all directions, causing heavy casualties to the Japanese soldiers hiding around the ammunition truck.

After dropping the loaded bombs, the bombers did not leave, but continued to hover at low altitudes, mercilessly strangling lives with aviation machine guns.

A dense rain of bullets swept down from the air at the officers and men who were scattering in all directions on the grassland, and groups of devil soldiers who were originally evading the bombing were knocked to the ground by the bombers' aviation machine guns, and many of them were beaten to pieces, blood sprayed wildly, and some particularly unlucky people were beaten in two by the waist, and their intestines and stomachs overflowed everywhere, and they were miserable to see.

As the aviation machine gun ammunition was also depleted, the Anjia Army Air Force departed triumphantly.

In just half an hour, but it seemed like a century, the whole grassland could be seen everywhere dense corpses, everywhere there were wounded soldiers covered in blood and moaning in pain, some uninjured devil soldiers automatically dragged these wounded soldiers out to help bandage and first aid.

Looking at the group of bombers that were far away, Yoshio last month wiped the mud from his face and stood up from the reeds by the river with the chief of staff, Masao Chino, wet and wet.

By this time, the water of the Lightning River had been dyed blood, and the bombs that rained down during the bombing took care of the crowded river, and mutilated corpses floating on the water could be seen everywhere.

Last month, Yoshio was in a heavy mood, and ordered the officers of the various departments who rushed up to report the losses to immediately reorganize their troops, throw down the bodies of the dead, and quickly hide in the mountains to the southeast.

......

Zhangbei County.

Li Jinlong received An Yi's telegram, was very shocked and angry, and immediately issued an order, in addition to Liao Minlin led the Seventh Army to continue to pursue the Japanese rout to the east, take the opportunity to take Baochang and Guyuan, and join forces with the Third Route Army in Duolun, the Eighth Army and the Ninth Army immediately stopped advancing eastward, and the Ninth Army of Zhou Dingcheng immediately changed the rear team to the front team, along the Zhangfeng Railway to the west, captured Fengzhen, Jining, and Guisui (now Hohhot), blocked the road for Fu Zuoyi's troops to advance westward, and Sun Desheng led the Ninth Army to the south to attack Zhangjiakou. Then the troops entered Datong and attacked Shanxi at any time to encircle and suppress Lu Yixuan's rebels.

After making a series of operational arrangements, Li Jinlong got in touch with Zhang Chengzhu, and then urgently flew to Kulen to personally learn from An Yi about the details of Lu Yixuan's betrayal, and the key was to find out whether Hou Wuliang was involved in this betrayal.

When Li Jinlong arrived at Kulun Airport, he happened to meet Zhang Chengzhu, who also rushed back. The two exchanged pleasantries, got into the same car, and headed for the military region.

"Big brother, who did you say Lu Yixuan's betrayal this time? I heard that after the intelligence department reviewed it, it was confirmed that Wuliang's sworn brother Li Hansong was deeply involved, and the entire North China intelligence system has almost become Lu Yixuan's lawless umbrella, I estimate that there will be big trouble this time! ”

Li Jinlong said worriedly.

Zhang Chengzhu also looked worried: "I hope Wuliang is fine!" Over the years, he has paid too much for intelligence work, in addition to being assassinated by the anti-Japanese hoe gang many times, he also separated his wife, although there is no shortage of women around him, but the dangers and joys and hardships, who knows?

"Generally speaking, the business of the North China Intelligence Station led by him is qualified, and a lot of the information sent out is very timely and accurate. This Lu Yixuan is really a harmful person, you said that he is in our military and political system, and he can be regarded as a man in charge of his own affairs, and if he chooses to stay in the army or engage in politics in the future, he will at least be ranked among the top fifteen people, what do you say he is trying to do? ”

"Maybe it's because I can't leave my homeland!"

Li Jinlong has been thinking about this problem, and now he has expressed his thoughts and thoughts: "Xiao Yi has never been determined to wade into the troubled waters of China, especially in the face of Chairman Jiang, a living Bodhisattva, it is difficult for him to do things that do not remember the old feelings and usurp the party's power. Throughout Xiao Yi's journey, as long as he treats his friends sincerely, he takes care of them wholeheartedly, and never takes the initiative to turn his face, perhaps because of this, Lu Yixuan feels that the future is unknown, so as he said in the telegram, he took the initiative to take refuge in Nanjing Chairman Jiang Bo has a future! ”

"Lu Yixuan has this kind of vision!"

Lieutenant General Li Jun, chief of staff who accompanied Zhang Chengzhu to Kulun, said disdainfully:

"At the beginning, he broke away from us once, and then he encircled and suppressed the Red Army and planted a big heel, so he took the initiative to come up with a shy face and admit his mistakes, that is, my master was soft-hearted and accepted him again! I didn't expect to make such a fuss at this juncture, it seems that this person with a backbone in the back of his head has to be vigilant at any time......"

After An Yi's protégé left North China, he successively participated in the operations against Central Asia, Afghanistan and West Asia, and was promoted all the way in the line of duty, and is now a senior lieutenant general of An Jiajun. This time, the headquarters of the Fourth Route Army that advanced to the northeast was formed, and Li Jun was appointed by Zhang Chengzhu as the chief of staff of the Third Route Army.

"Wait and see Xiao Yi later, let's see what he says!"

Zhang Chengzhu's face was resolute: "Now that the First Route Army and the Second Route Army are progressing smoothly, if necessary, my Third Route Army can also wave its division into the pass, go straight to Pingjin, and encircle and suppress the rebels!" I don't believe it, the officers and soldiers we have trained for many years will really listen to the ...... of that traitor."
