Chapter 520: I Command for Your Excellency
Even Xia Yuan Xiong Mi, who fell to the ground with a chair, could not have imagined that Liu Yimin, the instructor and division commander of the Eighth Route Army, who had mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops to sweep the Imperial Army, was now standing in front of him, and was leisurely admiring his collection of calligraphy and paintings. It's so unreal, and it makes Shimoto Kumami feel like I'm dreaming.
Xia Yuan Xiong Mi crawled on the ground and didn't want to get up, he knew that getting up couldn't change the current situation, and could only invite humiliation. The guards in the courtyard can't be counted on, this guy is so good, and he can't hear the movements of the guards and staff officers in the headquarters, which means that they have been killed, and the only thing that can be counted on now is that the troops living in the city can find the abnormality in the headquarters, quickly reinforce and capture them alive, no, it is too difficult to capture them alive, it is best to kill this guy who claims to be Liu Yimin!
There are many calligraphy and paintings in the bookcase of Xia Yuan Xiongmi, and they are all precious. This old devil really grabbed a lot of good things.
The characters are mainly based on the works of Qianlong famous ministers of the Qing Dynasty, calligraphy masters, and Qian Feng, who is known as "Mr. Slender Horse and Thin Horse Imperial History", and there are regular scripts and line books.
The paintings are more miscellaneous, including those of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty, and famous painters since the Republic of China.
The most precious of the characters is a pair of Tang Dynasty master Chu Suiliang's book "Dead Tree Fu", and the most precious painting is the work of Tang Yin and Wen Zhengming of the Wumen painting school in the Ming Dynasty.
Liu Yimin has practiced calligraphy and painting since he was a child, he is smart, diligent in studying, and is quite familiar with the history of calligraphy and painting, and knows that Chu Suiliang's "Withered Tree Fu" has always been respected by calligraphers and calligraphers, but the authentic works are not passed on to the world, and are only included in the "Listening to the Rain Building". It is said that when Qian Feng practiced calligraphy, he practiced "Withered Tree Fu" a hundred times, and his skills improved greatly.
Qian Feng was praised by Yan body lovers as the first person after Yan Lugong, morality, integrity, and articles can be used as a teacher. Yu Youren, one of the four great calligraphers of the Republic of China, is the teacher of Qian Feng.
The Wumen School of Painting is even more famous, and the name of Tang Yin and Tang Bohu is also a household name in the era in which Liu Yimin lived in his later years.
These calligraphy and painting works should be passed down from generation to generation, secret, can fall into the hands of Xiong Mi of the next yuan, that is all blood soaked in the back of the paper, behind each work, I am afraid is a tragic story of the destruction of the family.
It may be that Xiong Mi felt that his division headquarters was the safest place, and he casually put so many precious calligraphy and paintings in the bookcase, and even saved the need to pack them and hide them. This old devil really regards China as his home.
Liu Yimin looked at it for a while, and the anger in his heart became higher and higher. turned around and snorted coldly, and said lightly: "Get up, don't pretend to be that cowardly in front of me, let me look down on you!" ”
Xia Yuan Xiong Mi had to get up at this time, waiting for a pair of dead fish-like eyes, looking at Liu Yimin viciously.
Liu Yimin Shi Shiran walked over, pushed away Xia Yuan Xiong Mi, pulled up a chair, sat down at Xia Yuan Xiong Mi's desk, and said, "Go and pour me a glass of water!" After speaking, without raising his head, he climbed onto the table and looked at the military map that Shimoto Kuma and Suzuki Toshiyuki were marking.
Although Xia Yuan Xiong Mi is proficient in Chinese, he has not yet reached the point where he can immediately understand the meaning of the sentence "Go and pour me a glass of water", staring at his eyes and pondering for a long time, he realized that the head instructor of the Eighth Route Army regarded himself as a slave and clearly bullied himself.
When did Shimoto Kumaya suffer such an insult? He is also said to be from a famous family, from the non-commissioned officer school to the army university all the way out, served as a military academy instructor, attached to the staff headquarters, brigade commander, fortress commander and other important positions, and even his wife is also a famous lady. During the Songhu melee, it was he who commanded the 24th Brigade to capture Wusongkou, opening the way for the army to reinforce the Shanghai battlefield. Speaking of which, this guy is also a well-known general in the army, Liu Yimin bullied him so much, he naturally quit.
Xia Yuan Xiongmi's face turned red, he roared "Baga", turned around and took off the command knife hanging on the wall behind him, pulled the knife out of its sheath, raised his hands above his head, and slashed towards Liu Yimin.
Liu Yimin, who was looking at the map, didn't raise his head, grabbed a few fountain pens, brushes, and pencils on the table, "swished" a few times, and threw them back.
The fountain pen, brush, and pencil passed through the arms of the Shimoto Kumi, the legs that were exerting strength, and the ribs that were full of strength, and nailed the Shimoto Kumanya firmly to the wall. There was a clang, and the command knife raised by Xiong Mi fell to the ground.
Xiayuan Xiong Mi, who was covered in blood and unbearable pain, shouted loudly like a wounded lion: "Liu Yimin, don't be crazy. Don't forget that this is Weicheng, where the headquarters of my 1st 08th Division is located. You can't come and go, and in a moment my troops will find out that the situation is abnormal, and they will soon find here, so you wait to die! ”
Liu Yimin turned a deaf ear to Xia Yuan Xiong Mi's shouts, and carefully looked at the garrisons of the various units of the Yue Army marked on the military map, and felt that the situation was basically the same as that of his master, so he raised his head and looked at what good things were still on Xia Yuan Xiong Mi's desk.
What caught his eye was the phone record book and a stack of telegrams that Suzuki Toshiyuki put on his desk before he died, and when he took it over, Liu Yimin laughed: "Okay, Odaka Kamizo is coming to Weixian, this is too coincidental!" It seems that Lao Tzu's luck is not ordinarily good, as soon as he captured a division commander, another army commander came. Now that the Supreme Court of the National People's Republic of China can finally do something serious, Ju Zheng can directly try the two lieutenant generals of the army. I'm afraid that this is just one thing, and he will go down in history! ”
Xia Yuan Xiongmi, who was nailed to the wall, was already relatively weak at this time, and he kept bleeding, not to mention that he was a fifty-six-year-old old soldier, even a young soldier who had just joined the army, and he would gradually become weak and exhausted.
After listening to Liu Yimin's words, Xia Yuan Xiong Mi kept muttering to himself: "Demon, demon!" ”
At this time, there was a fierce sound of gunfire outside, and the phone on Xiong Mi's desk in Xia Yuan also rang, it seemed that there was a fierce battle between the Eighth Route Army and the Yue Army. Liu Yimin and Xia Yuan Xiong Mi were both soldiers who had fought in the war, and they could all hear the explosions of infantry guns, grenadiers, Type 92 heavy machine guns, crooked light machine guns, and grenades.
Xia Yuan Xiong Mi suddenly came to his senses, and he laughed wildly, and after laughing, he panted and said: "Liu Yimin, my troops have discovered you, and they will destroy you soon." No matter how good you are, can you dodge bullets? Hurry up and let me go, and I'll be caught. For the sake of your martial arts, I will report to His Majesty the Emperor and ask him to grant you permission to be his bodyguard. The Dirt Eight Road is destined to be wiped out, or surrender to the Great Empire, the future is great! ”
Liu Yimin was a little disgusting, he originally regarded this Yuan Xiong Mi as a character, and he worked hard to make a decapitation battle, but he didn't expect that this guy was also the arrogant, narcissistic, and arrogant surname of this soldier in his bones, no wonder after hearing the news of defeat and surrender in history, Xia Yuan Xiong Mi, who had already been transferred to the reserve, committed suicide, and it turned out to be his own surname. When is this coming, this guy still wants to persuade himself to surrender, it's just the head of the people who say that the donkey kicks the ball!
Liu Yimin said slowly: "Your Excellency seems to have forgotten that the Eighth Route Army Instructor has already been fully equipped with all the equipment. I have more cannons and machine guns than you. This sound of gunfire should say that our soldiers are encircling and suppressing your defending troops! ”
When Xia Yuan Xiong Mi heard this, he was like a deflated ball, and he immediately stopped talking.
Liu Yimin no longer paid attention to Xia Yuan Xiongmi, grabbed the phone on the table and listened, it turned out to be the captain of the 10th 8th Cavalry Brigade of the 1st 08th Division, Goto Jiazilang Nakasa, who reported that he was attacked by the Eighth Route Army, and the soldiers did not have time to put on their clothes and guns, and suffered heavy casualties, and asked the division commander to immediately send troops for reinforcements.
Liu Yimin looked into the microphone, smiled and told Goto Koko Lang Nakasa, the soldiers are dying, what are you doing alive? It is said that the army does not intend to be such a stupid, cowardly and incompetent soldier, and it is a shame for His Majesty the Emperor, Empress Yoshiko, and the army to live. Apologize for seppuku!
Without waiting for Goto Koko Lang Nakasa to answer, Liu Yimin put down the phone. As a result, as soon as he put down the phone, the phone rang again, this time it was the 1st 08th Wing of the Engineer Tsuneo Changxiong called, the content was the same as Goto Kokoro Nakasa, Liu Yimin still smiled and replied in Chinese: Apologize for seppuku!
Then the captain of the 1st 08th Wing of the Field Artillery, Imai Toyoshiro Nakasa, and the captain of the 1st 08th Wing of the Heavy Troops, Ruyoshi Katani, called and asked for reinforcements. However, these two guys were more verbose and asked who Liu Yimin was on the phone. Liu Yimin had a very good attitude, his tone was tepid, and he patiently told them that he was a staff officer sent by the Second Army Headquarters to the 10th Eighth Division, and that the head of the Shimoto Kumaya Division and the chief of staff of Suzuki Toshiyuki were urgently discussing how to expel the Eighth Route Army from the city.
Xiayuan Xiongmi, who was nailed to the wall and was already very weak, watched Liu Yimin pretend to disguise the staff of the headquarters and give the order for the officers to apologize, and he was so angry that only one "demon" after another remained.
Finally, after the communication team, health team, several field hospitals, and sick horse factories of the 10th and 8th Divisions had finished calling for help, Liu Yimin got up and walked in front of Xia Yuan Xiong Mi, his face was full of apologies, and he said in a deep voice: "There is no way, you are seriously injured and cannot perform your duties, so I have to reluctantly make it difficult and command for Your Excellency." You watch carefully, and then I will command your main infantry and the 33rd Division to come to the rescue of you and Commander Otaka Kamezo, and then use my artillery to bombard, boom, and send them all to hell. It can be regarded as a blessing for you to be able to witness the tactics of the instructors of the Eighth Route Army and learn what modern warfare is. You know, this kind of blessing is not something that everyone can have. Like the brigade commanders, wing commanders, and brigade commanders under your command, they lined up crying and shouting for Lao Tzu, but Lao Tzu didn't bother to teach them. ”
Angry, Yuan Xiong Mi rolled his eyes and fainted.
It wasn't until the phone rang again and Wang Dongqiang reported on the phone that he had completely controlled the communication system between Weicheng and the Yue Army, that Liu Yimin sat back at his desk, grabbed the phone and wanted to call the supplementary battalion of the First Regiment of the First Regiment left behind in Fangzi, and asked Gao Yuan and Cheng Cuilin if they had arrived.
Gao Yuan, Cheng Cuilin led the main force of the 1st Brigade to Fangzi at this time, and listened to the fierce gunfire from Weicheng, so he ordered the 3rd Regiment and the New 1st Regiment to enter the city for reinforcements.
After receiving Liu Yimin's call, Gao Yuan felt a burst of excitement in his heart, and said on the phone: "Report to the division commander, please withdraw from the battle immediately and return to Fangzi." I have already ordered the third regiment and the new regiment to enter the city for reinforcements, so you don't have to worry about the little devils in Weicheng anymore. ”
Liu Yimin knew that his comrades-in-arms cared about him, so he laughed and said on the phone: "Gao Yuan, let me tell you, I will call you now in the office of Lieutenant General Xia Yuan Xiong Mi, the commander of the 1st and Eighth Division, and Lieutenant General Xia Yuan Xiong Mi nailed this old boy to the wall by me, and listened to me talk to you with a drooping face!" ”
Gao Yuan was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly asked what was going on, the devils in the city had not been completely eliminated, how could the division commander be in Xia Yuan Xiong Mi's office.
Liu Yimin said that he was still a young man in his twenties, and when he was proud, he would inevitably reveal his youthful surname, and Gao Yuan was one of his most powerful subordinates and closest comrades-in-arms, so he couldn't help but want to show off.
Liu Yimin told Gao Yuan that he personally led the second special warfare squad to disguise the captain of the 1st 0th 5th Wing of the Yue Army, Kudo Zhentaka, swaggered to Weicheng, and after killing the Yue army squad at the east gate of Dongguanwu, he took 6 special combat team soldiers to enter the west city of Weicheng through Chaoyang Bridge in a car, touched the Shihu Garden, where the headquarters of the 10th and 8th Division was located, and quietly killed the guards, staff officers, and signal soldiers in the headquarters, leaving six special forces to guard the gate, and he himself entered the office of Shimoto Kumanya, and killed the chief of staff Suzuki Toshiyuki who tried to resist, Captured Xiong Mi alive. This old devil was dishonest and tried to resist, and he nailed it to the wall with a fountain pen, pencil, and brush.
Liu Yimin spoke with his eyebrows fluttering and triumphant, Gao Yuan was thrilled to hear it, and shouted on the phone, the headquarters of the devil division has a normal establishment of 330 people, even if it is night, they are all sleeping, and they can sneak attack. But seven people killing 330 people is also a bit outrageous, I'm afraid the division commander's wrists are too tired to lift up.
Liu Yimin told Gao Yuan that there are not so many people in the devil's headquarters, this is their base camp, and the devil never dreamed that the Eighth Route Army could touch it, and the defense was very loose. Besides, this Shihu Garden is too small to accommodate so many people. Among them, the devil's guard squadron has less than one squad to garrison the headquarters, and the other squads are all serving as guards in field hospitals and other units. Seven people, seven daggers, seven silent pistols, an average of a dozen little devils, very enjoyable!
Liu Yimin was in trouble, maybe Cheng Cuilin was standing next to the plateau, heard Liu Yimin's great achievements, grabbed the phone, and shouted loudly: "What about Wang Dahu?" What about Wang Xinyun? What about Wang Laohu? What do the three of them eat? How could the division commander be allowed to go to the headquarters of the little devil on an adventure alone? Liu Yimin, Master Liu, have you forgotten what happened in Chengdu? You will stay there honestly for me, and I will not go anywhere, and I will immediately rush over with the brigade guard battalion!" It's just audacious and reckless, and he won't change his ways! ”
Cheng Cuilin was the political commissar of the former 34th Red Division, and he and Chen Shuxiang were the first senior Red Army generals to come into contact with after Liu Yimin's crossing, and the two of them not only introduced Liu Yimin to the party, but also single-handedly promoted Liu Yimin from a newly enlisted Red Army soldier from a soldier, platoon commander, and company commander to the acting head of the 18th Red Regiment. If he met other people, no matter how capable and excellent Liu Yimin was, it would be impossible for him to win several levels in a row in one day, and at best he could be used as the backbone of the squad and platoon leader. It can be said that without Chen Shuxiang and Cheng Cuilin's knowledge and discernment, there would be no series of legendary stories of Liu Yimin on the Long March, and he would not be where he is today. In Liu Yimin's heart, if Wang Dahu is the closest brother, then Chen Shuxiang, Cheng Cuilin and Cai Zhong, who was assigned by them to cooperate with Liu Yimin, are the closest brothers. Therefore, after Cheng Cuilin was transferred to the work of teaching instructors, he soon served as the political commissar of the teaching instructor of the First Brigade and even the most elite unit of the Eighth Route Army, and also served as the deputy director of the political department of the division.
It is precisely because of his deep friendship with Liu Yimin that Cheng Cuilin cares about him more than others, and as soon as he heard that he was in danger, he grabbed the phone and reprimanded him, completely ignoring the relationship between his superiors and subordinates.
Cheng Cuilin's roar shook Liu Yimin's ear drums, and he quickly took the microphone away.
After Cheng Cuilin finished yelling, Liu Yimin said into the microphone again: "Old political commissar, don't be angry, don't take an example." You and Gao Yuan, listen, I have an urgent task for you. ”
As soon as he heard that there was a task, Cheng Cuilin stopped yelling and handed the microphone to Gao Yuan.
Liu Yimin said on the phone: "Gao Yuan, you and Political Commissar Cheng listen, I saw their call records on the desk of Xiong Mi in Xia Yuan, the commander of the 12th Army, Lieutenant General Otaka Kamizo, will take a plane to Weixian County to supervise the battle after dawn, and the landing place of the plane is at the Twenty Lipu airstrip not far east of Fangzi. There are no planes at this airstrip now, only a small number of devil ground crews and security personnel. When I left Fangzi, I had already ordered a regiment to take control of the airfield. You should immediately arrange for competent cadres to go to the airport and prepare for the landing of the plane. It is important to remember to give Odaka Kamizo and his entourage a chance to send a telegram to the Second Army Headquarters and other Japanese army units for help. Then hide the tail turtle for me to capture alive, I will send him and Xia Yuan Xiong Mi to Yucheng together, let the Supreme Court of the National Political Axe try them, deal a blow to the arrogance of the Yue army, and make Xiao Yue Ben lose face in the world! Did you hear me clearly? ”
The excited voices of Gao Yuan and Cheng Cuilin came from the phone: "Please rest assured, the division commander, I promise to complete the task!" ”
Liu Yimin said with satisfaction: "Execute!" ”
Putting down the phone, I heard footsteps in the courtyard, and when I pushed the door, I saw that it was a small staff team led by [***] Feng and two Yu Yu operators led by Cao Xiangren came, so he beckoned them in.
After Feng and Cao Xiangren entered the door, they saw Xia Yuan Xiong Mi being nailed to the wall by several tap pens, brushes, and pencils, and couldn't help laughing, and only remembered after laughing that there was only one division commander here, and Xia Yuan Xiong Mi's encounter must be the masterpiece. Damn, if you can use a pencil or brush to penetrate Xia Yuan Xiongmi's limbs, and nail it all the way to the wall, how strong should the division commander be!
Liu Yimin was full of fighting intent at this time, his face was full of murderous energy, and he glared at [***] Feng and Cao Xiangren, which scared the two of them and immediately stopped laughing. After that, Liu Yimin ordered Cao Xiangren to take a telegraph operator to quickly take over the radio station of the headquarters of the 108th Division of the Yue Army, and immediately start work, first to communicate with the division headquarters and various units remaining in Jingzhi Town, and then to connect with the headquarters of the 2nd Army of the Yue Army, the 25th Brigade of the 108th Division, the 104th Brigade and the 33rd Division, the Jiaoji Road Garrison, the Qingdao Garrison, the Jinan Garrison, and the Jinan, Qingdao, and Xuzhou airports; The order [***] Feng immediately sorted out the maps, telegrams, and telephone records of the headquarters of the 10th and 8th Divisions, prepared to adjust the battle plan, and issued it to all units for implementation.
Feng and Cao Xiangren began to get busy, and several fighters walked in, moved Suzuki Toshiyuki's body out, and washed the blood on the ground with water. Then I asked Xia Yuan Xiong Mi what to do.
Liu Yimin said that he would find a military doctor to bandage Xiong Mi in Xia Yuan and treat him, and he couldn't let him die. Then hand it over to Wang Laohu for interrogation, you must pry his mouth open, this guy has done a lot of bad things, and he has a lot of things in his stomach!
After getting Xia Yuan Xiong Mi out, Liu Yimin sat on a chair and sorted out his thoughts, feeling that it was about to dawn soon, and the commander of the Twelfth Army, Otaka Kamizo, was probably already on his way to the airport. As soon as this guy came, the drama became even more lively. It seems that the battle plan had to be slightly revised, and the main battlefield was directly set up at the Twenty Lipu Airport south of Weicheng and west of Fangzi.
At this time, the sound of guns and cannons in Weicheng had gradually subsided, and there was no need to ask, it was that the battle was nearing the end, and Weicheng was back in the hands of the Eighth Route Army again.
Cao Xiangren is worthy of being a well-known radio code-breaking expert in our army, and it didn't take long for him to make the radio station of the regimental headquarters of the 108th Division smooth and smooth.
Liu Yimin knew that Luo Ronghuan and Cai Zhong were looking forward to Jingzhi Town, so he sent them a report first: "Attack and occupy Weicheng and capture Yuan Xiong Mi alive!" ”
Then he sent a report to Li Lingfeng and Wang Tongsheng to inquire about the progress.
When fighting in large forces, it is impossible to always attack at night, and it is impossible to always have the opportunity to gather the little devils and annihilate them in one fell swoop. In this Jiaoji Road Campaign, when Liu Yimin drew up the battle plan, he considered that the 108th Division, the 33rd Division, and the Jiaoji Road Garrison were all responsible for the task of guarding the lines of communication and the occupied areas, and it was impossible for them to completely abandon their strongholds and pour out of their nests. In this way, the greatest threat to the troops is the planes of the Japanese army. Therefore, before heading north from Dadian, Liu Yimin had already ordered Li Lingfeng to lead the first formation of special operations to approach the Shangqiu Yuejun airfield covertly, and ordered Wang Tongsheng to lead the second formation of special operations to approach Xuzhou airfield covertly and destroy these two airfields. According to the battle plan, the two of them should have done it at night, and now I don't know if they will succeed.
