When He Yingqin and his entourage finally arrived in Yulin at dawn the next morning, looking at the cavalry battalion of the independent column that came to escort them, the members of the delegation sitting in the car were also reluctant to cheer up and prepare for their last destination.

This visit to the base area of the Eighth Route Army was indeed not a memorable journey for many members of the delegation. It is really uncomfortable to sleep a lot during the day and sleep at night while sitting in a car and swaying around.

The only thing that made them feel relieved was that the Eighth Route Army did not make it as difficult for them as they imagined. At least in terms of travel, food and accommodation, the care is still in place. Let them feel a little bit of 'welcome allies'.

It is a pity that during their visit to Shaanxi, they were unable to gain an in-depth understanding of the military and political situation of the Eighth Route Army. Although they had been to some barracks, they all looked similar, and there was nothing to be excited about.

Hearing that the cavalry battalion commander who came to greet him said that He Zhengdao and Xiao Jinguang had been waiting at the city gate for a long time, Zhou Enlai, who was also a little tired, said with a smile: "Okay, then you lead the way in front, and our convoy will follow behind!" ”

'Yes, Chief! ’

After saluting, the cavalry battalion also turned on their horses and rode towards Yulin City. The Central Army reporter sitting in the car also took a few photos in a timely manner. For journalists, these cavalry looked very elite.

Looking at the cavalry of these independent columns, the cavalry rifles equipped are all Japanese-style equipment, and the posture of riding on the horse can also be seen to be elite. For such a class of cavalry, there are actually not many in the Central Army.

Compared with the cavalry in the northern theater, it also plays a very important role, and the cavalry in the southern theater is actually rare. The delegation that came to Shaanxi this time actually saw a lot of cavalry units of the Eighth Route Army.

It's just that compared to the cavalry they saw before, and then look at the cavalry that greeted them outside the city now, anyone who knows something about the troops can see that these cavalry are all cavalry that have seen blood and have really fought bloody battles on the battlefield.

Such cavalry, once put into the battlefield, is often very lethal. And the equipment on these cavalry is the standard equipment of the little devil cavalry at a glance. It can be seen that these cavalry have played against the little devil cavalry.

When the delegation arrived at the city gate, looking at the group of people waiting in line at the city gate, He Yingqin soon saw the two people standing at the front. One of them is Xiao Jinguang of the old Red Army, and the other is He Zhengdao who he wants to see.

Just as the reporters of the delegation got out of the car and prepared to take pictures of He Zhengdao. An officer and soldier wearing the uniform of the Eighth Route Army stood in front of the camera at the right time. Seeing this scene, the reporters of the delegation were somewhat stunned.

'Comrade journalist, I'm sorry! Our commander doesn't like to take pictures, please don't take pictures! ’

'Why?' Shouldn't you take a photo at such a moment? ’

He Zhengdao, who also saw this scene, said with a smile: "Minister He, I'm sorry! I'm a timid person by nature, and I don't like to take pictures. I believe Minister He also knows that my head is worth 100,000 oceans in the little devil! ”

A simple sentence, so He Yingqin didn't have much to say. At least he knew very well that at present, the Japanese army knew very little about He Zhengdao's information. It can be said that even the positive photos did not seem to have been taken.

The Eighth Route Army also did not publish any photographs when it published some good news about the independent column. In a sense, He Zhengdao didn't like to take pictures, but he didn't want the little devil to know his true face and increase the risk.

As for He Zhengdao saying that he was timid, He Yingqin felt that it was a joke at all. If He Zhengdao had been timid, he would not have had the audacity to capture them alive in Guiyang City and go to Guiyang to command Chairman Chiang, who encircled and suppressed the Red Army.

Seeing He Zhengdao, he said that the reporter would take pictures, which would reveal his true appearance. He Yingqin also smiled and said: "Xiao Qin, don't take photos, we also have to think about the safety of Master He!" ”

'Thank you Minister He for your understanding! Minister He, I believe this person doesn't need me to introduce more, right? Comrade Xiao Jinguang, deputy commander of the Independent Division, my senior. The independent division can have today, and our deputy division commander Xiao is also indispensable. ’

Even if they went out of the city today to greet He Yingqin and his party, He Zhengdao and Xiao Jinguang were still wearing the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army. As for the lieutenant general's uniform sent by the government before, He Zhengdao also didn't think about wearing it. This is the territory of the Eighth Route Army, or is it appropriate to wear the military uniform of the Eighth Route Army!

'Hello, Minister Ho! ’

Xiao Jinguang, who also saluted He Yingqin, also knew very well that in this case, everyone tacitly understood it. At least at the time of the introduction, He Zhengdao still made the introduction in the name of the commander of the independent division, even if he was actually the political commissar of the independent column.

It's just that on the side of the Nationalist Government, they have never recognized the political commissars of the main divisions of the Eighth Route Army. In the absence of any way, most of these political commissars bear the title of deputy division commander and actually continue to do the errands of the political commissar.

After the two parties introduced each other, He Zhengdao did not forget to salute Zhou Enlai and Zuo Quan: "Vice Chairman Zhou, good chief of staff!" ”

'Good work! ’

On the way to come before, Zhou Enlai was still a little worried that He Zhengdao would be in a mood to greet He Yingqin and his party. Now it seems that He Zhengdao is still performing very well, and the courtesy has also given the Central Army delegation enough face.

After a short conversation at the city gate, He Zhengdao, as the landlord, said with a smile: "Minister He, this place is not far from our division headquarters. If Minister He is not too tired to walk, we would still go on foot and take a look at the scenery of Yucheng by the way, how about it? ”

'No problem! Guests are as they please! Speaking of which, it's better to take a walk after a night in the car. When I'm older, this body is really a little unbearable. Then bother Master He to lead the way, and we will also see the scenery of Yucheng. ’

'Minister He, Vice Chairman Zhou, Chief of Staff, please! ’

After making the invitation, He Zhengdao stood to the left of the three of them and led the delegation to the city. At this moment, the reconnaissance brigade has been fortified in advance at various important positions in the city, and the garrison troops are also on guard on the streets.

Many people who got up early in the morning, seeing this, also knew that there should be some big officials in the city. When some people looked at He Yingqin and his entourage, who walked in and wore the uniforms of the Central Army, they were somewhat surprised.

Especially when he saw He Yingqin's military uniform, the dazzling rank of general, the people were also surprised: "Did the sun come out of the west today?" When did the generals of the Central Army also come to our Yulin? ”

'I don't know! Now is the period of the Unification War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and the Central Army must have some purpose when it comes to our Yulin. Let's not worry about this kind of thing. Hurry up and don't trouble the soldiers standing guard. ’

Many people who watched curiously for a while, seeing the vigilant eyes of those garrison officers and soldiers, somewhat knew that the other party was on duty. If they stay too long, it will also make these soldiers on duty pay extra attention to them.

Walking on the commercial street in Yulin, He Yingqin looked at the houses that could still be seen stained by gunsmoke, and said with a little curiosity: "Have there been fires in these houses?" Looking at the houses on this street, many of them seem to be newly built, right? ”

'Minister He has a good eye! These newly built houses are all houses that were blown up during the previous air raid by the little devils. We felt that the wooden house was not safe, and when it was rebuilt later, it was a brick and tile structure, which was a little more resistant to burning! ’

Listening to He Zhengdao's explanation, He Yingqin also remembered that when Xi'an City was bombed before, Yulin also suffered an air raid by little devils. In that air raid, Yulin City also seemed to have suffered a lot of losses.

'That's right, Master He! Yesterday's air raid, I heard that the camp where the prisoners of war were held was hit by an air raid and the damage was serious? ’

'It's fine! We know the intention of Minister He this time, and he also focused on strengthening the air defense alert in the prisoner of war camps. It's a pity that there were too many planes of the little devils yesterday, and we tried our best to block them, but in the end we couldn't stop them from carrying out air strikes.

Fortunately, my air defense forces were quite heroic and did not let the little devils succeed in the end. There is just one thing that may require Minister Ho's forgiveness. In yesterday's air raid, the Japanese major general we captured this time was a little unlucky to be bombed. ’

'What? So what's going on? ’

'Not a serious injury! But the leg injury is currently being treated in our rear hospital. This time, it is rare for Minister He to come, and we also hope that the government can provide us with a batch of medicines. This time, there were quite a few wounded little devils we captured. ’

No life, just leg injury. Hearing this news, He Yingqin breathed a sigh of relief. If the little devil really blew up a surrendered little devil major general, then he came to accept the prisoner this time, but I am afraid that it will be discounted.

After all, these two Japanese major generals are also important people that the government most hopes to bring back to Chongqing!

It's a pity that He Yingqin didn't know that when he saw Xiusan, he wasn't injured at all. At the time of the transfer, the person who was separated from the detainees saw Xiuzo, and actually stayed in the rear hospital where the wounded were treated.

After talking to Hitomi Xiusan, Hitomi Xiusan also said that he didn't want to go to Chongqing. Considering that Renjian Xiusan took the initiative to make this request, He Zhengdao did not refuse, and let him disguise himself as a leg injury and stay in the rear hospital as if he was sick.

If He Yingqin is really determined to take away people to see Xiusan, then he must come up with a price that satisfies He Zhengdao. What's more, it would be very troublesome to take such a general with a wounded leg on the road if he died halfway.

After all, there are not many wounded who have died due to wound infections in recent years. If He Yingqin still insists on taking away people to see Xiusan, he also needs to consider this consequence. At this point, He Zhengdao felt that He Yingqin might not have the courage to bear the consequences.

Even in the case of not being able to keep people seeing Xiusan, He Zhengdao may make some tricks and directly kill people seeing Xiusan halfway. In this way, when the time comes to return to Chongqing with a dead major general, He Yingqin will not be able to deal with Lao Jiang.

Although He Zhengdao hopes to transform people to see Xiusan, if he really can't keep the other party, He Zhengdao will also take some special measures. At least in He Zhengdao's opinion, it is more useful to see Shuzo than Nakamura Muichi!

If the Eighth Route Army can't get it, then he doesn't want the Central Army to get it either!

This may be a bit cruel, but when it comes to the little devil, He Zhengdao thinks that no matter how cruel he is, he can do it. After all, dead devils are good devils! (To be continued.) )
