Chapter 15 Yuci Fengyun
"Hey! Your Excellency, please rest assured, I will definitely recover Yuci County on time! Goto Shaosa lowered his head and loudly assured the microphone.
"It is not only necessary to recover the county seat, but also to eliminate the bad influence and annihilate the 88th column of the Decisive Army. If I can't complete the task by then, I'll send another commander over, along with the military judge, you know? After saying the last word, Yoshio Suzuka threw his hand and threw the microphone, he really didn't want to hear Goto Shiro again. This guy hurt himself and was reprimanded by Okamura Ninji, and he lost face. Before he sent the military judge, he was already giving him a lot of face.
Hearing the hanging up sound coming from the microphone, Goto Shiro was stunned for a moment. However, in the next second, His Excellency Shaozuo, the experienced Shao Zuo, chatted into the microphone on the other end, which was no longer answered. There was a large group of staff officers and adjutants standing next to him, and Shaozo didn't want others to know that General Suzuka hung up his phone.
"Hey! Hey! What the general said was that the humble duty would be followed. Thanks to the general's concern, there is no problem on Goto's side. …… Hi! Goto understands! Good bye! After another five or six minutes, Goto Shaosa hung up the phone. Turning around, his face suddenly sank, "Gentlemen, General Suzuka ordered our troops to recover Yuci County before dark tomorrow, eliminate the negative impact, and annihilate the Eighth Column of the Decisive Army!" ”
"Hey! Long live the Emperor! The devil's scream shook the lights on the ceiling, like an earthquake.
The main cavalry regiment of the 88th column and the 2nd infantry regiment of the 88th Column of the Decisive Army, which were nagged by Goto Shaoza, had already left the garrison and were marching towards Yuci County.
"Jin Sheng, can your troops hurry up?" Ji Jinbiao and Yang Jinsheng, the second head of the regiment, were together, and both of them were riding horses. Ji Jinbiao rode his green-maned horse, Yang Jinsheng rode a jujube red horse, and the two horses walked side by side.
"No, this is already the fastest speed of the infantry march. No matter how fast it is, the soldiers will be forced to run to the place and will not be able to continue fighting. "Yang Jinsheng has led the army for many years and knows the elements of marching and fighting. Now the march is already fast.
"Alas, I know the hard work of the brethren. However, I'm worried that we won't be able to get to the place when the commander needs manpower! In this way, I will lead the cavalry regiment to go first, and you will lead the second regiment to follow. Let's gather outside Yuci County. If the commander is in a hurry to employ people, my cavalry can also be on top! ”
"Good. Remember, it's best not to fight the devils until you contact the commander, so as not to spoil the commander's big business. Knowing that Ji Jinbiao was an impatient, it would definitely not work to persuade him directly, so Head Yang simply turned a corner and pulled Hu Fei in.
Not to mention, Yang Jinsheng's trick really worked, Ji Jinbiao immediately became reasonable when he heard Hu Fei's words, "I know, I know." Hehe, thank you Brother Jin Sheng for reminding me and saying goodbye! After saying the last word, Ji Jinbiao turned over and jumped on the horse, shook his hand and whipped, "Drive!" The green-maned horse neighed, and it was gone.
Yang Jinsheng looked at Ji Jinbiao's back and shook his head and smiled, and then looked at the marching army columns around him and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Brothers, keep up, don't let the cavalry brothers see the jokes of our second regiment!" "The team that had just slackened immediately regained their spirits, not only did they increase their speed a little, but they also formed a whole formation.
After the Yuci County Government had sent a telegram to the Commander of the Eighth Column, Hu Fei sent a telegram to the Commander's Department of the Second Theater in his capacity as commander of the 88th Column, asking Commander Yan to send a large force to take over Yuci County as soon as possible, and that Commander Hu was ready to hand over the county seat that he had worked so hard to liberate to the Commander.
In the second war zone, Chief Yan looked at the telegram in front of him and was smoking, and the secretary knocked on the door and came in and handed him a telegram. The chief took it and took a look, it was still related to Hu Fei!
When he saw the electricity half an hour ago, Chief Yan couldn't hide the excitement in his heart and smoked two bags of dry tobacco in a row. In the middle of this half hour, there were more than 50 calls to his governor's office, including Jiang Someone, He Jingzhi, Li Delin, and Feng Huanzhang from the Military Commission, and almost every party with a head and face called Haoqiang, and everyone was asking about Yuci County.
The recovery of a county seat in the second war zone should have been a very glorious thing, but the problem is that Chief Yan doesn't know how Yuci County was recovered! In answering these friendly inquiries, the chief had to resort to vague and evasive political methods to fool the past.
Yan Xishan wondered in his heart, first, how could Hu Fei recover Yuci County, which was close to Taiyuan, and secondly, he was also depressed, Yuci County is the territory of Shanxi, what is in the way of you outsiders? Do you need to care so much about the gains and losses of a Shanxi county?
After seeing the second telegram, Chief Yan was choked by a puff of old cigarette and coughed repeatedly, and even coughed up tears. What? Hu Fei asked me to send troops to take over Yuci County? I wanted to go, but Yoshio Tsukasuka didn't agree! As long as the second theater dares to send heavy troops over, another battle of Taiyuan will immediately start again!
It's not that Chief Yan doesn't want to recover Yuci County, it's not that he doesn't want to recover Taiyuan, he wants to dream about it. The problem is, it's not the time yet!
"Telegram to Commander Hu Fei of the 88th Column of the Decisive Army: Your unit has made outstanding achievements in recovering Yuci County, and has made great achievements for the party and the country. However, the time is not ripe to launch the Taiyuan Campaign. Therefore, you are ordered to immediately evacuate Yuci County and retreat into the Luliang Mountains to avoid being surrounded by heavy Japanese troops. ”
Hu Fei regained Yuci County on behalf of the Second War Zone, which gave Chief Yan a face. In return for the favor, of course, the chief is willing to give Hu Fei a high-sounding reason to withdraw his troops. Anyway, if he doesn't send this telegram, Hu Fei will withdraw it, and this Shunshui favor will not be done in vain.
When the telegram was sent to Yuci County, Hu Fei was giving a banquet to the famous gentry of the county. Wanqing's son, the head of the family who does Chen vinegar, the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce who sells silk and satin fabrics, the proprietor of the Qinglou, and the leader of the gangsters, in short, can be called famous, Hu Fei invited them all. Of course, the former Japanese puppet government officials such as the county government and the police department must have become guests. Hongbin Building, the largest restaurant in the county, was contracted by him, and ten tables were set up for the best banquet alone.
Inviting guests to dinner is originally a lively and festive event, but if there are dozens of soldiers with swords and guns standing at the door of the hotel, then this meal may not be so pleasant.
Celebrities from all walks of life in Yuci County gathered together, and they didn't know who arranged the seats, but they actually arranged the county magistrate and the most famous Wanqing in the city to a table, and the positions of the two were next to each other. Maybe the person who arranged the seat felt that these two were both learned and had a relatively high social status, and maybe they would have a common language, right?
