Chapter 775 Breaking the Cauldron and Sinking the Boat
The big black mountain under the white snow, vast and vast, stretching for hundreds of miles, although there is no thousands of meteorological conditions of towering peaks, but it is also a deep place where mountains and ravines are intertwined all over the big trees and forests, the sound of deer roars leisurely, and the sound of wolves is heard for ten miles.

Five years ago, gold mines were discovered in the Bailuxi area of the mountain range, and gold diggers, including the Japanese, flocked to the mountain, which was originally deserted and had no way to go in the depths of the forest. Two years later, the gold mines were exhausted, and more than 3,000 gold diggers left one after another, but left behind a series of winter wooden houses made of thick pine wood between the mountain streams and dense forests, and also left more than 30 Shandong gold diggers who did not make a fortune but had no way out.
Yang Jiuxiao's anti-Japanese detachment base camp is located in this forgotten outside world in the Bagai Mountain, only two or three years of local residents more than 30 families have become members of Yang Jiuxiao's detachment, Yang Jiuxiao's headquarters is also located in the Japanese abandoned in the best local three large wooden houses, sitting north to south in front of the tall wooden house there is a 10-meter square platform, standing on the platform can be the Bailu Creek along the residential scenery in full view.
In the spacious room, there is a Western-style fireplace made of granite, and the split pine trees in the furnace are burning vigorously, and the fragrant smell of grease and the slightly burnt heat flow spread. After listening to the three telegrams read out by intelligence staff officer Xu Yide, everyone suddenly felt that the military situation was urgent, and the pressure increased, and none of them dared to speak again, and they all waited for Commander Yang Jiuxiao to speak.
The brothers are still regretting their boss Yang Jiuxiao, after fighting Chaoyang and winning the "Great Victory in Liaoxi", Hou Wuliang, who is known as the fifth brother, transferred a congratulatory telegram from the Military Commission, Yang Jiuxiao was promoted to major general for merit, and the brothers were all promoted to one level, but it didn't take long for the fifth brother's telegram to come again, and he was punished by the General Staff Headquarters for unnecessary battle damage caused by two Japanese trucks, and the other brothers were fine, and the commander Yang Jiuxiao was demoted to colonel again, with the same rank as the four captains, this is also the first time that the brothers have experienced the strict military discipline of the An Jiajun.
Yang Jiuxiao sank his face and smoked silently, the sudden arrival of the three messages made him understand the seriousness of the situation, especially the third message sent in the name of An Yi with grim wording, which shocked Yang Jiuxiao, and the last sentence "The brave wins when they meet on a narrow road" is not so much an encouragement as an order that makes people have no choice, which makes Yang Jiuxiao's detachment, which has made a careful plan and successfully implemented it face a very difficult choice.
"Xianrong, did Boss An talk like this before? Can you tell us about your impression of Boss An? Yang Jiuxiao finally spoke, but he didn't express his opinion, but asked Ni Xianrong, the chief of the operations section who was sitting opposite him, and all the brothers looked at Ni Xianrong one after another.
Ni Xianrong smiled bitterly: "When the younger brother entered the independent division, the Northern Expedition had been completed, and a few days after returning to the ** camp opposite Nanjing City, Boss An left the independent division and handed over all the rights to Master Hu. Later, when I entered the divisional guard, I came into contact with more secrets, and I had heard the senior brother who served as the captain of the guard mention the contents of several telegrams from Boss An, but after transferring to the special brigade, I had no chance, and then I was lucky enough to be elected to the special class of the non-commissioned officer school for further study, and finally had the opportunity to hear Boss An give a lesson, but I never saw Boss An again. But as far as the younger brother knows, Boss An treats his brothers equally, no matter how high or low, he has never seen him scold any brother, and he respects everyone with a smile, and Boss An once sat on the edge of the flower bed with the veteran janitor of the military academy late at night, crying and laughing and getting drunk with his neck around his neck, and the whole army was full of respect for him. Alas...... Such a stern tone in today's telegram is also a big surprise to the younger brother! β
Yang Jiuxiao nodded slowly: "It seems that Boss An was forced by the sudden changes in Little Japan, and the fifth brother's telegram was never more severe than ever." β
"Brother Jiu, maybe our last few rash actions have made the eldest and fifth brother a little uneasy! I also blame me, I had a hot head when I saw the benefits, I didn't follow the regulations, restrain the actions of the ministries, and didn't persuade the brothers to accept it when they saw it, causing several unnecessary casualties. In the past, although we were told to be cautious, they all gave us the right to act cheaply and deal with it on the spot, but now, I am afraid that we have an opinion on our ability. β
Chief of Staff Tong Zhiqiang felt a little sorry for himself, and his eyes were full of regret; if he was strictly investigated, he, the chief of staff, would probably lose face and would not be able to escape the responsibility he should bear.
The brothers had a lot of discussions, and many people agreed with Tong Zhiqiang's opinion, thinking that the department had made several mistakes and could not be forgiven by the fifth brother and Boss An, so this time he gave a death order that only looked at the results and ignored the casualties.
Yang Jiuxiao pondered for a long time, threw down the cigarette pouch and stood up suddenly: "No! The fifth brother's personality is very admirable, and the brothers present also know the fifth brother's character, he is by no means the kind of person with a small belly, even if we accidentally burn his house, he will howl a few times at most, and there will never be half a sentence of blame, this time he admonished us so harshly, it is definitely not that he does not believe us, but that the military situation is urgent, and the stakes are very high. Besides, although I am not blessed to have met our Boss An, but with Boss An's generous support to us, and the love of merit and help in times of trouble over the past year, I will never doubt our ability because of a few battle losses.
"Brothers, think about it, as the commander of the 200,000 troops, the most famous general in the country, he can cry and laugh at night with an old brother who guards the door, who can match this affection and this mind? Therefore, there is only one reason, the operation we are about to carry out is likely to be related to the preparation of more than 100,000 soldiers on the entire Western Front, otherwise, how can the boss be so severe? How could the fifth brother repeatedly admonish? In this analysis, on the contrary, the boss has high hopes for our team and has placed great trust in us. β
Inspired by this, the brothers suddenly became enlightened, and many of them blushed at the idea of their own small belly. Tong Zhiqiang was like an enlightenment, and even said a few "yes", Ni Xianrong was also very pleased, and faintly found that this sturdy team with great endurance and adaptability will officially enter the sequence of the An Family Army.
The knots in the heart were lifted, and the mentality of the whole team was obviously different, and the eyes of a group of fierce generals showed a strong desire to fight**.
Yang Jiuxiao, Tong Zhiqiang, and Ni Xianrong briefly discussed for a moment, raised his head and resolutely ordered: "This battle is the most critical battle since the establishment of our army, I believe that the brothers also understand the hardships and dangers, and they all know the significance of this battle to the overall situation, so I order, we must show ten times the energy, a hundred times the determination, have the courage and courage to break the boat, strictly follow the second set of plans of the front command, avoid casualties as much as possible, and go all out to fight for the damn!" Before, the first three trains of the Japanese army had to be spared, and as soon as the train passed, they started to move. However, we can't just watch little Japan sail into Chaoyang safely, but we must take the initiative to attack and seize the opportunity to fight hard, only in this way can it be possible to let this part of the Japanese army that took the lead choose to stay, and let them stay in Beipiao in order to destroy us...... Xu Yide? β
"Here!"
Yang Jiuxiao screamed too suddenly, Xu Yide subconsciously stood up and knocked over the stool.
Yang Jiuxiao slapped his palm on the table: "Immediately issue a telegram order to the Lu Yanqing Brigade in the east, at all costs, blow up the railway east of the iron bridge, pick bends and ramps to plant explosives, and blow up at least 500 meters for Lao Tzu, the final goal is to blow up the big iron bridge at all costs, and if the task is not completed, let him Lu Yanqing not come to see me!" β
"Yes!"
"Zhiqiangβ"
"Here!" Chief of Staff Tong Zhiqiang hurriedly stood up.
"There is only one small team of Japanese troops in the Seventh Brigade in Beipiao City, most of which are placed on both sides of the big iron bridge, and the puppet army of the remaining regiment has no combat effectiveness. You personally go to the three major teams, before it gets dark, you must rush into the city for Lao Tzu, the machine gun company, the spy company is also handed over to you to command, as long as the gunshots go off, the young marshal and the brothers they planted in the city will move, inside and outside the flowers, the enemy will definitely not be able to withstand it. Remember, after the fight, you can withdraw, you can no longer covet those altars and jars, and you are really reluctant to leave them to the enemy, then set a fire and burn him clean. After retreating, they all returned here and began to prepare for the retaliation of the enemy's heavy forces. "Yang Jiuxiao is very careful after being open-minded.
"Glory!"
"Here!" Ni Xianrong stood up.
Yang Jiuxiao lowered his voice: "Let's take a radio team and a squad of cavalry, and rush to the Lao Ye Temple, if the estimate is good, our team is almost here, more than 4,000 brothers have traveled hundreds of miles all the way to the wind and snow, it is really a very hard thing, and we Northeast people are enough to choke, so we can't slack off." β
"Little brother, let's go and prepare."
Ni Xianrong does things neatly and never drags mud and water.
At dusk, seven kilometers south of the Lao Ye Temple.
"Command, stop moving, and rest all." After Gu Changfeng gave the order, he threw the reins to the chief of the guard, stepped on the snow that was up to his ankles, and strode up the hill to the west.
If it weren't for Zheng Kailai, who had just recovered from his injuries, to lead more than a hundred brothers who were mostly from western Liaoning to help remind him all the way, I am afraid that he would not be able to get here at this time tomorrow.
Many mountain trails are trodden by hunters and loggers, and the snow covers all the deep ridges and stone pits, which is difficult to walk without years of local life experience.
The three regiment commanders followed Gu Changfeng to climb the mountain and go to work, and like Gu Changfeng, they also took off their thick gray cloth gloves, took out the binoculars in their coats, and looked in the direction of the Lao Ye Temple in the north.
"Report to the division's seat, the front reconnaissance team came from the flag, a pair of horse teams crossed the Xiema Ridge and rushed quickly, it seems that it may be the brothers of the anti-Japanese detachment." The intelligence staff officer reported loudly at the foot of the hill.
"Revisit! If the other side shows his identity with the password, he will invite someone to me. β
"Yes!"
After a while, twelve war horses that spewed hot breath galloped over, bypassed the bend of the valley, and soon came to the bottom of the hill, Gu Changfeng put away the binoculars and raised his hand to wave, stepped down the mountain, and didn't take a few steps before he heard a familiar voice coming: "Sir Gu? Oh my God, why are you here yourself......"
Gu Changfeng stopped and took a closer look, and saw the burly and rough man next to Yang Jiuxiao take off his dogskin hat, revealing a familiar smile, and laughed heartily in surprise: "Ni Xianrong of the dog day, he actually recognized Lao Tzu at a glance, eye thief!" Beard brought you something, I'll talk about it later, haha......"
Yang Jiuxiao looked at Gu Changfeng in surprise, who jumped down a few high hurdles, admired his flexible skills, turned to Ni Xianrong beside him and asked quietly: "Didn't you kid tell me that General Tiger Head was born in a famous family and has excellent knowledge?" How can you be rude than Lao Tzu......"
