Chapter 246: Resolutely Missing
After a sleepless night, Ye Tufei finally decided to come down and return to Xuzhou to save Peng Youming.
Zhang Luohui's foundation was really hard, and after sleeping all night, he regained his senses early the next morning. As soon as he woke up, he hurriedly told Ye Tufei what happened to him in Xuzhou City.
According to Ye Tufei's instructions in advance, after Zhang Luohui came to Tangzhen, he immediately returned the command of the team to Wang Xing, and then the two of them went to Xuzhou to find Peng Youming.
The two of them first went to Lingbi Mountain, found Lu Yao, and through Lu Yao, contacted Peng Youming, who was organizing a spying on the intelligence of the Japanese army's summer sweep in Xuzhou City.
After Zhang Luohui met Peng Youming, he simply told Peng Youming about Ye Tufei's recent situation, and also told Peng Youming about Ye Tufei's plan to eat this division.
As soon as Peng Youming heard Ye Tufei's plan, he immediately became happy. His intelligence network showed that the Japanese army in Xuzhou was organizing a summer sweeping operation, the main purpose was to target Lu Yao's department in Lingbi Mountain, Peng Youming had mobilized all resources in Xuzhou in the past few days to reconnoiter the movements of the Japanese army, and the more detailed the information obtained, the more nervous his mood became.
This time, the commander of the Hashimoto division really fought against Lingbi Mountain, and various intelligence shows that Hashimoto mobilized more than 5,000 troops for this operation, which is only the strength of the Japanese army, not counting the Imperial Allied Army that fought together.
If before the Japanese army took action, according to Ye Tufei's plan, the troops that had just defected to the new government in Nanjing were eaten, not only would they be able to achieve the effect of eliminating the strengths of the two sides, but they would have already made enough money in the preparation of weapons and ammunition alone.
In fact, this single action could shatter Little Japan's plan of action.
Peng Youming was overjoyed, and immediately discussed with Zhang Luohui and perfected Ye Tufei's plan.
Just when Zhang Luohui was about to say goodbye to Peng Youming and was about to rush back to report to Ye Tufei, the little Japanese gendarmerie surrounded them. After a fierce battle, Zhang Luohui used his superhuman water nature to escape from the old Yellow River, while Peng Youming was seriously injured and captured.
After listening to Zhang Luohui's narration, Ye Tufei fell into deep thought.
Peng Youming is a veteran underground party, and he has experienced at least two dangers, so it stands to reason that he will be more cautious, how could he be so careless and be targeted by the Japanese again?
Ye Tufei still knows Peng Youming's style quite well, and he doesn't believe that this time Little Japan succeeded because of Peng Youming's negligence.
There is only one explanation, that is, there is a traitor around Peng Youming.
"You can recuperate in peace! Oh, by the way, what about the head of Tang Town? ”
Zhang Luohui shook his head slightly, and replied: "I don't know, the two of us entered the city together, I went to see Secretary Peng, and made an appointment to meet at the west gate of the city that night, but ......"
Ye Tufei patted Zhang Luohui's head and said with a smile: "Okay, I know, if you want to eat or drink, tell Xiao Lao Liu, let him serve you, gray mule, it's rare for you to have such treatment, cherish and cherish it, I'll arrange the rest of the matter." ”
Back to Xuzhou! Peng Youming must be rescued!
Otherwise, if Peng Youming is so gone, who will correct his name?
Thinking like this, Ye Tufei couldn't help but smile bitterly, and Peng Youming's appearance appeared in front of him again, this buddy...... Ye Tufei sighed.
The idea of diverting to Xuzhou was approved by Wang Xing, especially Ye Tufei's words, which made Wang Xing extremely complacent, Ye Tufei said: "Brother Wang, I thought about it carefully last night, and I think your suggestion is preferable, even if this work is earned by the Japanese, it is better for us to have two or three merits than nothing at all!" ”
On the question of whether to go to Xuzhou or not, Ye Tufei has always measured the pros and cons by whether he Wang Xing's division can obtain military merits, and has never considered whether he can pull out the old brothers and old team of his Erlang Mountain, which has already made Wang Xing very impressed, coupled with Ye Tufei's humility, he said that after going back, he carefully considered his opinion, and finally felt that he was right, Wang Xing's self-esteem and vanity were greatly satisfied, and he had no doubts about Ye Tufei's rebellion.
Then it's a question of what excuse to come up with.
Wang Xing had already prepared: "There were differences in the troops, and there were small-scale riots, so they needed to be stationed nearby for rectification. ”
Ye Tufei gave Wang Xing a thumbs up: "Master Wang is really experienced, okay, just do as you say!" ”
With Ye Tufei's consent, Wang Xing immediately drafted a telegram and asked for instructions from Nanjing and Xuzhou respectively.
However, within half an hour, Nanjing and Xuzhou both made a reply and fully agreed with the request here.
After doing these things, the troops had already had breakfast, and with Ye Tufei's consent, Wang Xing issued an order to all move in the direction of Xuzhou.
When marching, Ye Tufei found a deputy stretcher for Zhang Luohui. Regarding the sudden increase in the wounded person next to Ye Tufei, Wang Xing didn't ask too much, but he didn't see it.
Wang Xing's division is really shabby, the whole division does not have a single car, all the baggage is pulled by livestock, and the officers below Wang Xing can only use horsepower as a means of transportation.
Because of Zhang Luohui, an injured man, Ye Tufei simply abandoned the horse, and together with Xiao Zhonghe Duguyu, accompanied Zhang Luohui on both sides of his stretcher.
With a clear goal, the troops marched much faster, and by the evening, they had come to the vicinity of Xuzhou City.
"Master Wang, let's rest here, it's getting late, and the Japanese will definitely not agree to us entering the city." When Wang Xing came over to ask Ye Tufei if he wanted to enter the city, Ye Tufei gave a negative.
Wang Xing didn't insist anymore and arranged for the troops to stop and rest.
Since it was decided to rest in place, it was natural to set up tents and build stoves, and as soon as the soldiers were busy with their work, a sentry came over nervously to report that the Japanese were coming.
As soon as Wang Xing heard that the Japanese were coming, he looked very flustered, and hurriedly asked how many people had come, how far away it was from his side, and how many weapons there were.
Ye Tufei smiled dumbly and said, "Master Wang, what are you nervous about?" We are now friendly forces and friends with the Japanese! ”
Wang Xing reacted at this time, wiped the sweat that had just come out of his forehead, and explained himself with a little embarrassment: "Yes, yes, it's not an enemy now, it's a friendly army, yes, a friendly army." ”
Ye Tufei turned to the sentry who came to report and instructed: "Lead the way ahead, and Master Wang and I will go to meet these Japanese!" ”
To Ye Tufei's surprise, Keigo Yamashita actually came in person.
"Ye Sang, I've been waiting here for almost two hours, how about it, it's enough friends!" As soon as Yamashita Keigo saw Ye Tufei, he enthusiastically stretched out his hand: "Your marching speed is too slow!" ”
Ye Tufei pointed to Wang Xing and explained: "Division Commander Wang is simple, and many of the troops' baggage is reluctant to be discarded, so the speed is slower. ”
Yamashita Keigo turned to Wang Xing and said, "Oh, this is Master Wang?" ”
Wang Xing was already nervous when he saw the Japanese soldiers, and Yamashita Keigo's military rank was a big sake, but he was even more nervous, and he shivered for a long time after saluting a military salute.
Yamashita Keigo didn't care, and told Ye Tufei what he was waiting for: "Ye Sang, the city is crowded, and I really can't find a suitable place to place these teams, but I have already allocated Tongshan Town in the south of the city to Commander Wang to be stationed and rested, but it's too late today to rush over, so you have to work hard all night." Ye Sang, I have already arranged a banquet in Xuzhou City, and all officers above the regiment will follow me into the city! ”
Yamashita Keigo's move is not clever. Who knows whether this division is really Shun or fake, a division of the formation is stationed not far outside the city, if you take advantage of the night to launch a sneak attack on the city, although it will not be able to do anything, but at least it is also a ** annoyance.
Invite the officers above the regiment to the city and watch under the nose of Keigo at the foot of his mountain, so that they can be completely relieved.
Ye Tufei blinked, and he figured out Yamashita Keigo's intentions, while Wang Xing looked flattered, and almost didn't kneel down to thank Yamashita Keigo.
After entering the city and having dinner, Yamashita Keigo still refused to let the officers go back, but arranged a place near his gendarmerie. Wang Xing and several of his regimental officers were a little nervous, and secretly asked Ye Tufei for advice, Ye Tufei smiled, put his arm around Yamashita Keigo's shoulder, and said, "Yamashita Taijun's kindness, don't misunderstand." ”
After settling those officers, Yamashita Keigo invited Ye Tufei to his office to drink tea, Ye Tufei shirked too late and needed to rest, Yamashita Keigo smiled: "Ye Sang, you better agree to my request, after drinking tea, I will take you to see an old friend." ”
Ye Tufei was suddenly startled, and realized that the old friend that Yamashita Keigo said should be Peng Youming.
In this case, Ye Tufei didn't want to go around with Yamashita Keigo, he directly pointed out Yamashita Keigo's hidden meaning: "Old friend? Is it the Communist Party or the Kuomintang? ”
Yamashita Keigo smiled: "Let's drink tea first, and after drinking tea, you will be able to see him!" ”
Ye Tufei snorted coldly and said, "Whether it's the Communist Party or the Kuomintang, I'm sorry, Yamashita-kun, I, Ye Tufei, am not interested, I'd better go back to sleep." ”
Yamashita Keigo was generalized, and a trace of hideousness appeared on his face, but it flashed, and then he smiled again: "Ye Sang, don't you want to know how I caught this old friend of yours?" Also, don't you want to know what this old friend of yours has to say? ”
Ye Tufei smiled faintly and replied: "Mountain, you don't need to sell it to me, I'll tell you the truth, when I pulled the team to fight with you Japanese, it was for the sake of territory, and only with territory can we have a good life." Now I, Ye Tufei, have no team in my hands, and I have no capital to fight with you Japanese, so ah, I am just relying on the new government now, making some money, and living a good life. As for those life-and-death struggles, don't get involved with me anymore. ”
