Chapter 401 is a victory thousands of miles away

"Report: Call from the Nanjing General Headquarters. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Luo Lei, the new communications section chief of the independent division with a tall and resolute square face, stood at the door of the conference room, strode towards An Yi after the report, and respectfully handed over the message.

An Yi nodded, waved his hand and motioned for him to find a random place to sit down, and then looked at it carefully. After reading it, An Yi stretched his brows and raised the message in his hand to the full general:

"Good news, the principal and the general headquarters have agreed to the establishment plan of my independent division and the list of appointments of commanders at all levels, it seems that Senior Brother He and Senior Brother Yu have helped a lot! Now you understand why I will be so good to my senior brothers, right? Ying Wu ......"

"Here!"

Huang Yingwu stood up with an excited face.

"Congratulations! Your kid has been promoted to major general. An Yi was very happy, and now there were no airborne party representatives to point fingers at him.

Hu Jialin, Yang Bin and other brothers congratulated Huang Yingwu in unison, Huang Yingwu's face was full of smiles, and he arched his hand to Xia Jian and Zhan Huanqi and said: "Don't just congratulate me, aren't the two brothers also promoted to general?" One is the chief of staff of the dignified Provincial Security Command, and the other is the commander of the Ganzhong Command. This head is more majestic than our boss, not to mention the little brother, who is the last to learn? ”

All the brothers couldn't help laughing when they heard it, and for a while, the crowd was excited, and the laughter continued, and at this time, Luo Lei, who was sitting next to Huang Yingwu, congratulated with his eyebrows: "Congratulations, senior brother!" ”

Huang Yingwu took out a cigarette and distributed it around, and finally lit it to Luo Lei: "Senior brother, don't worry, as long as you follow our boss with all your heart, you won't have to worry about not being promoted, I went from a non-commissioned officer to a general, it took less than two years, your ability is much stronger than that of a foolish brother, maybe you will reach the rank of colonel after one or two battles, work hard!" ”

Luo Lei nodded and grinned, and opened the folder to write in the laughter of the brothers.

Luo Lei graduated from the second phase of the Huangpu Political Science Department, and was immediately transferred to follow the Russian instructor to learn radio, worked in the Central Party Department for more than a year in radio telegraphy, and then went to the Central Political School presided over by Chen Guofu for further study, and Huang Yingwu, who was a monk halfway, was a classmate in the same period of time, and got along for nearly a year.

The reorganization of An Yi's division, Luo Lei, who was the first to get the news, no longer wanted to stay in the silent and dark Central Party Department to waste his youth, and quietly wrote a letter to Huang Yingwu, who returned to the old Nanchang, asking for transfer to the independent division, Huang Yingwu had long wanted to dig up Luo Lei, who was proficient in radio and had a solid military foundation, and immediately found An Yi to report after receiving the letter. Gong Qian's reply was only eight words: sincere and steady, with both ability and political integrity!

The day after An Yi received the callback, Huang Yingwu rushed to Nanjing with An Yi's handwritten letter to find the teacher Chen Guofu, and after accepting Chen Guofu's lesson, he got the approval of the handwriting, and the ecstatic Huang Yingwu said goodbye to Chen Guofu and immediately went into the personnel department, and let a group of smiling "old men and old ladies" complete all the formalities for him in only 20 minutes of communication.

When Luo Lei saw Huang Yingwu who suddenly appeared at the door of his office, he didn't know that he was no longer a person from the Central Party Department, and the car dragged by Huang Yingwu into the door drove to the General Headquarters and then to the Military Headquarters of the First Army before he knew that he was already a member of the Independent Division of the First Army of the National Revolutionary Army.

Luo Lei came to Lao Nanchang like this, and in the past week, he has felt warm about the strong affection between the brothers of An Yi's department, compared to the lifeless but deceitful Central Party Department, everything here is simply a paradise for Luo Lei, whose ancestral home is Shandong, and has an upright personality, especially after being appointed by An Yi as the important position of the communication staff officer and communications section chief of the division headquarters, Luo Lei's heart was instantly eliminated, and he was full of gratitude for An Yi's admiration.

An Yi saw Luo Lei, who was five years older than him, with a solemn expression on his face, and was very satisfied with this new brother. Seeing that it was almost over, he raised his hand to signal the brothers to be quiet, and then asked loudly, "Lao Luo, is there any news from the west?" ”

Luo Lei gathered his thoughts, opened the folder in front of him and calmly reported: "Chief Hutou and Captain Ding called, the 'Xiahe Maru' unloaded guns, ammunition and other materials in Wanxian County and then went down the river, and is currently loading timber at Yuting Wharf, and it is expected that the ship will be in the early morning of tomorrow." In addition, Chief Shi Zhen of Northwest Guizhou called that his search team had not yet met the liaison officer dispatched by the 44th Army, and asked for 200,000 yuan in assistance. ”

All the brothers looked at An Yi, An Yi pondered for a moment and walked to the large map behind him, Yang Bin and Hu Jialin also stood up and walked to An Yi's side, the three of them pointed at the map and discussed for a moment, and returned to their seats again, An Yi looked at Chang Baofang, the quartermaster of the quartermaster, and ordered loudly:

"Lao Chang, you transferred 200,000 yuan to the Jiangxi Hall account in Chongqing, and they know what to do. Brother Shi Zhen is Zhou Xicheng's army to the south, and the Sichuan army is the inextricably fought Sichuan army to the north, he is in the most difficult and best stage of development opportunities, when will he not support it at this time? ”

"Yes!"

Chang Baofang, the colonel section chief who returned to the independent division, replied loudly.

An Yi turned to Luo Lei: "Call Brother Shi Zhen immediately: the money will arrive in Chongqing within three days." Tiger Head and Lao Ding don't need to reply, they just need to wait for their next message...... Ladies and gentlemen, field training and live-fire training in various units continued. Lao Liao, don't worry about the consumption of ammunition in your artillery regiment, although the newly equipped thirty Bufus guns have excellent performance and simple operation, but the new brothers under your command still have no bottom in their hearts if they don't shoot a few shots, and no matter how familiar you are with the drill code, it is also on paper, you can finish all the shells in stock, and I will find a way to replenish them for you when I arrive in Nanjing. ”

"Yes! The subordinates of the division seat are relieved, and the artillery regiment will never live up to the expectations of the division! ”

The new commander of the artillery regiment, Colonel Liao Minlin, Huo Ran, stood up, he knew very well that An Yi and Hu Jialin and other commanders attached great importance to the artillery regiment, and the artillery regiment now has more advanced Bufus artillery than the friendly forces, each worth 24,000 oceans, which An Yi bought out of his own pocket with gritted teeth a month and a half ago, and the twenty-four semi-new and old miscellaneous artillery pieces and 30,000 shells transported by the General Headquarters had already been given to Xia Jian's security forces by An Yi.

An Yi motioned for Liao Minlin to sit down: "All departments should take more care of the recruits, strict requirements, instructors must not relax the ideological education of recruits, after going back, we must evaluate and evaluate the training results of the 'one belt and one belt' in the past half a month, and report those with outstanding achievements, and we will give commendations and rewards before departure."

A week later, each regiment and battalion must send the outstanding soldiers who have emerged to the teaching brigade for final selection, and the number of outstanding soldiers sent by each department will become an important part of the military evaluation of all present here. ”

"Yes!"

Everyone stood and replied aloud.

After the brothers left, An Yi, Hu Jialin, Yang Bin, Zhan Huanqi, Xia Jian and others gathered in front of the map, guessing how the special detachment led by Gu Changfeng and Ding Zhicheng would start? Everyone discussed for a while, and they all believed that Gu Changfeng and Ding Zhicheng would carry out an operation in the waters of Yuting, but no one could determine the specific methods and steps of the action.

Hu Jialin said quite sadly: "As the first commander of the special brigade, Hutou took the initiative to ask to lead the team to act this time, it must be because he was about to leave, and he was reluctant to do so. Seeing the special brigade split into two, I didn't feel a good feeling in my heart. ”

Yang Bin laughed: "Huzi, are you unwilling to let Lao Ding stay?" ”

"It's not, Lao Ding and Lao Li should stay to assist you, Lao Nanchang is our root, it's not okay if you don't keep it, not to mention that our training base is in Lao Nanchang, and we need excellent instructors like them very much, and the younger brother is just not used to it for a while." Hu Jialin explained.

An Yi snorted: "What's not used to?" We can't just keep an independent division all day, can we? People go to high places, and water flows to low places, that's what I said, I still want you all to be division commanders, you all become division commanders, isn't Lao Tzu the army commander? Maybe he will further become the commander of the group army, what is Xia Jian's broken commander? ”

The brothers laughed loudly when they heard this, Xia Jian was not embarrassed at all, but raised his head very proudly: "No matter how the commander of the junior brother is broken, he is also a commander, and he is the first commander among all the brothers of our independent division, although Lao Yang has a higher position than the younger brother, but he is only the deputy commander in name, right?" ”

The brothers were amused and laughed, and Yang Bin laughed and said that Xia Jian, this kid, seemed to be a different person after he came back, and it is estimated that he has a child with a big heart......

At five o'clock in the morning, the "Shimoga Maru" cargo ship, which sold thousands of low-quality Murata rifles that had been eliminated by the Japanese army, 250,000 rounds of ammunition, 400 German-made shell guns, and a large number of red pills and Nidan, loaded it with a full load of rare nanmu trees, drove the ragged porters off the ship, put away the gangplank, untied the cables, and slowly sailed away from the simple and dirty Yuting Wharf.

First mate Shunichi Hatoyama muttered a few words to Ikeda and the others, who were in charge of security, and went into the wheelhouse to wake up the captain who had slept for half the night, and respectfully reported to him the cargo loaded.

As the snow fell, Ikeda, who was in charge of the ship's safety, spat out thick phlegm as he looked at the increasingly confused harbor behind him, shouted a few words to the four men on the side of the ship, and walked to the stern alone.

Ikeda walked around the deck of the stern full of tarpaulins and cables, and when he saw that everything was normal, he was about to go back to the bottom cabin to get a good night's sleep, and as soon as he reached the corner of the hatch, a cold river breeze blew the hat on Ikeda's head and fell on the deck, Ikeda cursed, bent down to pick up his hat, and suddenly felt a piercing pain and a cold wind piercing through his left ribs to his heart, and when he turned his head to see a dark face and those cold eyes, his body spasmed, and then he fell softly, and he didn't have time to hum.

Gu Changfeng carefully put down Ikeda's body, pulled up his cotton coat and pressed the wound, slowly pulled out a foot-long three-edged industrial scraper, raised the knife and glanced at the faint light, very satisfied, thinking that when he went back, he had to persuade An Yi to buy more of this kind of German-made industrial scraper back, just modify the grip, it was the best assassination weapon.

Gu Changfeng half-squatted on the edge of the cold hatch, quietly waiting for An Jin and Ding Zhicheng on the port side, stretched out his head to look at the half-open heavy hatch, and listened to the snoring sound from below.

After a while, the agile An Jin and Han Xianzhi and Tao Shanming, who were in charge of blasting, came to Gu Changfeng's side, An Jin gestured twice and then nodded, Gu Changfeng understood that the people living on the deck had been cleared, Ding Zhicheng and the three brothers had already touched the wheelhouse, so they pointed to the hatch and dodged in first, An Jin handed the dagger to his left hand, pulled out the Colt pistol on his waist and followed in, while Han Xianzhi and Tao Shanming, who were carrying sacks, stayed outside and waited.

At the door of the cabin on the left side of the captain's room, Ding Zhicheng, who was holding a dagger, estimated that Yang Libang on the opposite side was already in place, stood up and pushed open the hatch with a big grin, and the short and fat helmsman was startled when he saw Ding Zhicheng, and as soon as his mouth opened, Ding Zhicheng's dagger was inserted into his temple, and Hatoyama, who was talking to the captain, opened his mouth in fright, Yang Libang's barge gun in his left hand had been inserted into his mouth, and the barge gun in his right hand was pressed against the eyebrows of the bearded captain, so frightened that Hatoyama and the two were scattered, and they didn't dare to move.

Ding Zhicheng fiddled with the rudder a few times, whispered that the handling of the little Japanese cargo ship was not as good as that of the Germans, and looked at the wide and straight channel within the range of the night searchlight, so he simply didn't care, turned around and asked Hatoyama who could speak Chinese? Both of them shook their heads in horror, Ding Zhicheng scolded in annoyance, stretched out his hand and twisted Hatoyama's neck with a "click", grabbed the placket of the short captain's shirt and lifted it up easily: "Yours, where is the money?" ”

The captain was already scared to the crotch of his pants, his forehead was bulging, and he hurriedly waved his finger to the rear, Yang Libang put away the gun and lifted the quilt to open the curtain, and saw the cabinet embedded under the steel cabin at a glance, and when he reached out and pulled the dark lock of the cabinet door, it was not locked at all, and the dim light in the cabin illuminated the space of two fifty centimeters deep and one meter square, and the dark warehouse divided into a grid was full of neatly stacked gold bars, bags of silver dollars and bronze ceramic antiques.

"Grandma's! There are so many ......"

Yang Libang squatted in front of the secret warehouse and kept licking his lips, and suddenly heard a dull gunshot, and couldn't help but stand up quickly: "Chief Gu has done something under the cabin!" ”

Ding Zhicheng let go of his hand and put down the captain who had his neck broken: "As soon as the gun goes off, it proves that they are done, Lao Han and his apprentice will come soon after planting the explosives, you first move out the silver dollars, let Lao Han and the antiques load them, I will go and put down the lifeboat in the center of the ship, and leave as soon as possible, I am afraid that the downstream brothers will be in a hurry." ”

"Understood!"

Forty minutes later, the "Shimoga Maru", which had lost its control, slowly crashed into the sandbar in the middle of the river about a kilometer above the Tangjia wharf, and the stranded 500-ton cargo ship tilted about 30 degrees to the right, making a sharp grinding sound and a metal twisting sound, and the precious golden silk nanmu on the ship rumbled down due to the breaking of the fixed rope, and the huge collision sound spread far away in the silent dawn.

A series of violent explosions rang out, and the "Shimoga Maru" was shocked and flew up and smashed into the river, and hundreds of huge golden silk nanmu flew to the center of the river, and the calm river suddenly swelled with waves, and the overturned steamer exposed half of the bow, and then ignited a skyrocket.

Eleven kilometers downstream, the lifeboat carrying Gu Changfeng, Ding Zhicheng and other eight people slowly approached a 250-ton cargo ship that was slowly moving.

Ten minutes later, the lifeboat was scuttled, and Gu Changfeng, who entered the cabin, took the towel handed by the special combat team members and quickly wiped the snow and sweat off his face: "Send a report to the boss, just say that the harvest is very rich, everything is going well, and now I am returning!" ”

"Yes!"

The operator turned around and put on his headphones.

Gu Changfeng threw the towel to Wang Xulun, who was overjoyed in front of him: "Lao Tzu has to sleep for a while, I haven't closed my eyes for two days and two nights, little Japan on dog days...... Wake up Captain Wilhelm and ask him to hoist the German flag and go full throttle. ”

"Yes!"

In the conference room of the old Nanchang base, An Yi, Hu Jialin, Yang Bin and others, who had not slept all night, were still discussing the distribution of new weapons around the charcoal fire, Luo Lei strode in with excitement on his face, and reported in a low voice: "Master, Chief Gu called: The harvest is very rich, everything is going well, and now I am returning!" ”

An Yi stood up excitedly: "Great! It doesn't matter if there is a harvest or not, as long as this Japanese ship is blown up, it will definitely be enough for Bai Chongxi and them! The Japanese will definitely roar like thunder and send warships to the river where the incident occurred to retaliate, and perhaps Tao Xun's 18th Army will become the target of little Japan's venting.

As soon as Little Japan makes trouble, the Eighteenth Army will not be able to go south from the Yichang line, and Bai Chongxi's Thirteenth Army will attack Ye Senior's 44th Army, Ye Seniors will be fine as long as they can take a breath, good job! This time, Lao Tzu wants to see how the Gui family, which has made enemies everywhere, will deal with it! ”

Yang Bin said approvingly: "The incident happened in the section of the Yichang to Wuhan River occupied by the Gui family, and the punishment was the Nissin Company, which has dumped weapons, ammunition and red pills in the eastern Sichuan region for many years. It's just that I'm afraid that our commander-in-chief Chiang will also have a headache, and maybe the Japanese will protest loudly to him in the afternoon. ”

The brothers smiled, Luo Lei's heart shook violently, An Yi and his brothers had intelligence and strength far beyond his expectations, and they did not hide it from him like an old brother who had been with him for many years, this pride and bearing were enough to make Luo Lei deeply grateful.

Under the trusting gaze of An Yi and the brothers, Luo Lei handed the document to An Yi to sign, and secretly made up his mind that he must integrate into the collective as soon as possible and fight vigorously with this group of brothers who dare to love and hate.
