Fang Zhiwei, commander of the newly formed Sixth Division of the Nationalist Army, led a large group of officers of the Nationalist Army who had already waited two or three miles in front of the division's headquarters to greet them, and they had already received a telegram from the independent column and knew that they would arrive early this morning.

The generals of the national army saw the arrival of the independent column from afar, and immediately raised their hands and cheered, and Lu Caiting and the others naturally saw the generals of the national army, and they also raised their hands and ran over in cheers.

Shen Shenjun and some new soldiers in the independent column have not seen these generals of the national army, Lu Caiting was about to introduce them to each other, but unexpectedly, a person from among the generals of the national army ran out and hugged Lu Caiting and laughed, but it was his second senior brother Pei Qingrui, when he came last time, Pei Qingrui was not in the army because he was injured.

Seeing that their brothers were so affectionate, political commissar Lin Zhifeng introduced Shen Shenjun and the new soldiers to Fang Zhiwei and other generals of the national army one by one, and Xiao Yunguang, chief of the reconnaissance section of the division headquarters of the national army, also came forward to greet the people of the independent column cordially.

Pei Qingrui is in his early thirties, strong and burly, with a full round forehead, thick eyebrows and big eyes, he is now the head of the main force of the 16th Regiment of the 6th Division of the National Army, and he has repeatedly made military achievements, he liked Lu Caiting very much when he was in the division, and now he has grown up, and he is unique and effective in resisting Japan, so he is naturally happy and proud of the little junior brother.

Lu Caiting was also busy asking if the second senior brother's injury had healed, Pei Qingrui patted his chest and said that it was already well, and after the two senior brothers made love, they came over to meet everyone, and everyone greeted each other for a while, and the division commander Fang Zhiwei asked Xiao Yunguang to lead everyone to the conference room of the division headquarters to rest first.

Everyone walked into the conference room of the division headquarters lively, the orderly soldiers diligently made hot tea for everyone, and the guest of honor sat down on the long table and other seats at will. "I have already received a telegram from the military commander, saying that in cooperation with your New Fourth Army's General Mengshan Independent Column, they have successfully stolen the Japanese army's strategic plan for moving south and the plan for the autumn offensive in Jiangnan, and assassinated a general of staff sent by the Japanese army in Nanjing?"

Lu Caiting smiled modestly, admitting that it was his own special combat team that successfully stole the Japanese army's southward strategic plan and the Jiangnan autumn offensive plan, and told the two senior brothers and all the generals of the national army that General Zhai Teng, deputy chief of the general staff of the Japanese army's southward dispatch army, had been hunted and killed by his own independent column Jianghu special combat team in Yuxi County, and died in the Japanese Army General Hospital in Suzhou, and his body had been transported back to Nanjing.

All the generals of the national army were even more elated when they heard this, their morale was great, and at the same time, they were also embarrassed, and they praised the Jianghu special combat team of the independent column one after another.

After everyone was happy for a while, Ning Chenlong directly explained his intention and asked to enter the war room to discuss the capture of the concentration camp of the devils of Tiejialing in Beize Mountain and rescue the prisoners of war.

Fang Zhiwei and Pei Qingrui looked at the young chief of staff wearing glasses in front of them, the two of them had seen Ning Chenlong before, it was just a student doll, but now it is really not what it used to be, he is already the chief of staff with outstanding military achievements, Fang Zhiwei immediately ordered the generals above the regiment and the people of the independent column to enter the war room.

Lin Zhifeng, Lu Caiting, Ning Chenlong, and Shen Shenjun followed the generals of the national army into the war room, and the other soldiers were still drinking tea and chatting in the conference room, accompanied by many battalion-level officers and adjutants.

In front of the strategic terrain sand table in the war room, Xiao Yunguang pointed to the location of the Tiejialing concentration camp on the sand table to give a detailed introduction to everyone, and the generals of both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party put forward their own offensive opinions, and after several discussions and repeated deliberations, they finally decided on the breakthrough surprise attack plan proposed by Ning Chenlong, and the action time was set at midnight in the night.

The generals of the national army all looked at Ning Chenlong with admiration, he had a strange and strategic mind, and his ideas were bold and meticulous, no wonder a few of their student dolls were able to rise in a short period of time, eliminate the transport convoy of the Yokohama Brigade, the ace unit of the Japanese army, and completely annihilate an integrated squad of the Yokohama Brigade of the Japanese Army, defeat the garrison of the Japanese garrison to attack Jiangjunao, and destroy more than one squadron of the enemy, and their team grew rapidly.

It was already noon, so Fang Zhiwei asked Xiao Yunguang and his adjutant to lead everyone to lunch, and there were many tables of wine and food in the canteen, and many officers accompanied the people of the independent column.

Many generals of the national army came to toast Lin Zhifeng's wine with wine glasses, they had listened to her impassioned speech, and admired the beautiful and heroic political commissar of the New Fourth Army.

During the banquet, taking the opportunity to toast each other, Lu Caiting quietly thanked Xiao Yunguang, Xiao Yunguang resigned again and again, and the two of them understood and drank and talked with each other.

By the end of lunch, Lin Zhifeng and Ning Chenlong, although they had someone to block the wine, they were still drunk and red, their feet were staggering, and they were slightly drunk.

When parting, Fang Zhiwei took Lin Zhifeng's hand and said solemnly; "Political Commissar Lin, tomorrow, I will still set up the most grand banquet here, and when we rescue the teacher of the Sichuan Army, let's have another drink, and we won't return home if we don't get drunk."

Lin Zhifeng readily agreed; "Good! I will definitely come tomorrow, Master Fang is really chivalrous, righteous and thin, and has always been thinking about those heroes who resisted Japan. ”

Fang Zhiwei laughed; "Seeing the smile, what kind of righteousness is someone on our side, don't dare to be it? Compared with the Sichuan army teacher, I am very ashamed, people have traveled thousands of miles to resist the Japanese, the troops are not equipped enough, they have scattered their family wealth, and they have taken the family to fight from Shanxi to our Jiangnan in straw sandals, that is the real hero! ”

The generals of the national army and the men of the independent column reluctantly waved goodbye to each other, and they did not return to the division headquarters until the backs of the independent columnists completely disappeared.

Lu Caiting and the others returned to the reeds, the Zhu family's boat was waiting for them in the reeds, everyone got on the boat, the caravan went straight to the other side of the river, Lu Caiting asked Lin Zhifeng and Ning Chenlong with concern on the boat; "How about the commissar and chief of staff, are there any problems?"

Ning Chenlong took off his glasses and rubbed his temples with his hands and replied; "It's nothing, now follow you to drink a lot, and practice the amount of wine."

Lin Zhifeng also shook his head and said; "It's no big deal, Division Commander Fang and the brothers of the national army are so hospitable, ah, and that Section Chief Xiao, I haven't had a chance to thank him alone, tomorrow, tomorrow I will definitely find a chance to toast him alone with a few glasses of wine."

Lu Caiting hurriedly replied; "Don't worry, the political commissar has already toasted his wine alone, and on this occasion, our people all toast him alone, for fear of attracting the attention of the rest of the national army."

When the boat arrived at Horseshoe Bay, everyone went ashore, Zhu Pengsheng, Zhu Ran, Chi Lingchong and others from the water camp greeted everyone and asked everyone to rest in the Zhu family compound, Lu Caiting hurriedly refused; "No, there is an operation at night, we have to rush back to arrange the task, your naval camp will prepare more boats here at night, and the people of our brigade will rush across the river to attack the concentration camp of the devils in Tiejialing and rescue the prisoners of war, you must be ready."

Hearing that there was an operational mission, and it was difficult to keep the people in the water battalion, the battalion commander Zhu Ran immediately said; "Don't worry, Captain, we will prepare more ships to wait for you here at night."

The people of the water military camp saw each other off for a while, and everyone said goodbye to each other, and Lu Caiting and they went straight back to the mountain.

After returning to the camp of Jiangjunao, Lu Caiting ordered the battalion commanders of each battalion to immediately convene an operational meeting in the conference room.

After the chief and deputy battalion commanders of each battalion arrived, Lu Caiting briefly explained to everyone the action of attacking Tiejialing tonight and rescuing prisoners of war, and then the chief of staff gave specific combat tasks to each battalion.

The special combat team mainly attacked the concentration camp, the first battalion cooperated with the main attack, the second battalion was responsible for escorting the rescued prisoners of war outside the concentration camp to the big truck driven by the national army, and served as a guard, the third battalion set up an ambush in Fangmachuan to prevent the Japanese cavalry from dispatching, the fifth battalion served as a guard on the bank of the Yuma River to prevent the Japanese puppet army defending Shuangji Town from dispatching, the fourth battalion and the guard battalion stayed in the camp, and telegraphed to the Fenglingdang Suxi detachment to alert the imperial alliance army to dispatch, and at the same time, the national army was led by Pei Qingrui, the head of the regiment, with a reinforced battalion to pick up the rescued prisoners of war on the truck, In addition, two more battalions were sent to ambush the area from Huluyu to Beize Mountain, to prevent the Japanese Yokohama Brigade stationed in Beize Mountain from dispatching, and to ambush the troops of the two regiments in the vacant area where the Huluyu National Army and the Japanese army were confronted, and at 0:00 o'clock in the night, two red signal flares were lifted into the air, and the artillery of the new 6th and 8th Divisions of the National Army would be fired at the positions of the Yokohama Brigade together, creating chaos, and the operation began, and the entire operation of the independent column was personally commanded by Brigade Leader Lu Caiting and Chief of Staff Ning Chenlong to Tiejialing, and at the same time announced, The mission of the operation is to be kept secret at a special level, and no one is allowed to leak half a word about the whereabouts of the troops.

The battalion commanders of each battalion understood the purpose of the operation, received specific tasks, and after the meeting was dismissed, they went to mobilize their fighters and actively prepare for tonight's battle.

Ning Chenlong then summoned all the special combat team members to the conference room, unfolded the map, and explained to them in detail the structure of the houses and the topography of the concentration camp, as well as the objectives of this operation.

After having dinner early in the camp, the special combat team and the soldiers of the first battalion who accepted the mission first set off for Horseshoe Bay, and then the second, third, and fifth battalions also set off one after another.

At eleven o'clock in the night, the soldiers of the independent column had already bypassed the first Lianggangzi in Qudao Village, the second Lianggangzi Imperial Allied Army garrison and Fangmachuan, and marched quickly to the designated position in Tiejialing to encircle the concentration camp.

In the woods under the steep overhangs of the concentration camp, the reinforced battalion of the national army led by Pei Qingrui has also arrived, they drove six large trucks, and they were ready after reversing and turning off.

Ning Chenlong instructed Pei Qingrui; "Commander Pei, the rescued prisoners of war will be loaded one by one, and after they are full, they will drive away, and they will not be delayed for a moment."

Pei Qingrui smiled cheerfully; "Okay, everything is under the orders of the chief of staff!" After speaking, he went over to convey Ning Chenlong's words to his subordinates.

Gu Tao came over and told Ning Chenlong that the telephone lines on all the electric poles around the concentration camp had been cut, and Ning Chenlong nodded with satisfaction.

At the bottom of the mountain valley, the night was very quiet, the night wind was slow, only Lin Tao made a soft sound, the time had reached 11:40 in the night, only to see Gu Tao of the special combat team, Miao Wanfang and two other Yanzimen people, carrying thick ropes, suddenly climbed up to the steep rock wall, above which is the wall of the concentration camp, and it is also the prison house where the prisoners are held, only this section of the walled prison is connected to the mountain cliff, sixty or seventy meters high, the devils did not lay mines, and other high places near the wall were buried with mines.

The four of them were worthy of being swallows, and on the steep rock wall, they were like geckos climbing the wall, and in a short time they climbed onto the concentration camp wall, and the four thick ropes descended vertically, and the other special combat personnel all carried backpacks and straddled submachine guns on their shoulders, and climbed up along the thick ropes with agility and vigor.

This scene made Pei Qingrui and all the officers and soldiers of the national army stunned, and they almost screamed in surprise, they simply did not expect that the guerrillas formed by these reckless people in the rivers and lakes were completely superior to the regularly trained national army special forces in terms of kung fu and speed, and they deserved the title of the Jianghu special combat team.

At night, the camp was silent and dark over a large area, with high walls covered with barbed wire, a few searchlights swaying back and forth from time to time, and heavily armed sentinels patrolling around with wolfdogs.

The gate of the concentration camp, the high wall is also covered with barbed wire grids, the heavy iron gate, there are two dim street lamps, there are two pillboxes on the left and right of the gate, sandbags are piled up next to the door, there are devil soldiers with machine guns, heavily guarded, there is a main road leading to the bottom of the mountain in the center, and there are cliffs and woods hidden in the darkness on both sides.

On the dark road, several Japanese soldiers with three prisoners in charge were approaching the gate of the concentration camp.

There was a Japanese captain officer in front of the Japanese soldiers, and when they approached the gate, the Japanese officer replied to the sentry standing guard; "We were from the No. 5 garrison barracks under the mountain beam in front, and we found three suspicious guys in the defense area, so we arrested them and sent them here."

One of the sentries immediately moved the barbed wire stake barricade in front of the door, and the other sentry opened the big iron door and let these people in, near the gate light, the captain officer still took out his ID from his pocket and handed it to the sentry, and after the sentry saw it, he waved his hand at ease and signaled them to enter, this concentration camp was rebuilt by the Japanese Yokohama Brigade according to the original mine, the Yokohama Brigade is the ace of the Japanese Army in the field troops, and it belongs to the mixed mechanized brigade, where they are invincible, invincible, and their military discipline is strict, The fighting quality of the soldiers is high, in their jurisdiction, the Chinese have long fled without a trace, who dares to make a mistake? Because of these factors, they are also arrogant and careless.
