Volume 1: Battle of Songhu Chapter 135 On the Road
"Zihan, can our independent regiment not participate in such a big operation?" Shu Tongwen stretched out his right hand and held Li Zihan's right arm hard.
Li Zihan also reached out and held Shu Tongwen's right arm at the same time, this is not a handshake ceremony, but an armshake salute, a etiquette that only the closest brothers have, while holding Li Zihan's right arm, Shu Tongwen said: "Zihan, if I don't come to such a big action, Lao Xu will not shoot me when I turn around?" ”
Old Xu? Liu Chang's heart suddenly froze, and vaguely, he seemed to understand a little.
Could it be that all of this, including Xu Nineteen's defection to the enemy, including the surrender of the remnants of the Nineteen Detachment and then all of them, is all fake? All this is just a conspiracy, a big conspiracy? Thinking of this, Liu Chang's face turned pale in an instant, if this is the case, then Fujitang Gaoying is afraid that he will be in big trouble this time.
When Liu Changzheng was in shock, Shu Tongwen suddenly turned his head and asked with concern: "Old Liu, you are uncomfortable, why do you have such a bad complexion?" ”
"Huh?" Liu Chang was startled, and quickly explained, "Oh, no, I may just be a little tired, yes, I'm tired." ”
"Are you tired? Shouldn't you, you've never been in good health, aren't you? Shu Tongwen didn't have any suspicions, no matter how vigilant he was, he never thought that Liu Chang, a classmate of Kang University, had already secretly defected to Little Japan, and said with concern at the moment, "Okay, you can go and rest first, I still have to build fortifications with my brothers, so I won't accompany you." ”
Liu Changzheng wished that he would be alone, so that it would be convenient to act, and he should say at the moment: "Okay, Awen, you don't care about me."
Shu Tongwen patted Liu Chang on the shoulder, turned around and left with Li Zihan shoulder to shoulder, don't look at the two of them One is the National Army and the other is the New Fourth Army, but this does not affect the brotherhood between the two at all.
Watching Li Zihan and Shu Tongwen leave shoulder to shoulder, and then looking at the remnants of the 19 detachments around them, as well as the officers and soldiers of the L Battalion of the Independent Regiment who had just arrived in full swing in the construction of fortifications, Liu Chang became an ant on a hot pot, such a big matter, he must immediately report it to Fujido Gaoying to know, but the question is, what is going on?
The remnants of the nineteen detachments that should have been annihilated by Yan Sanquan and Niu Sigen in the Poison Dragon Valley were unharmed? Then, they didn't know where they got a large number of munitions, and they joined forces with the L Battalion of the Qingyang Independent Regiment of the New Fourth Army, hiding on both sides of the Hulu Valley to repair the fortifications, what are they doing?
Could it be that they want to ambush Fujido Takaei's independent mixed 14th Brigade here?
Could it be that the 14th Brigade of Fujido Takaei's Independent Mixed Brigade would pass through Hulu Valley?
Hulu Valley can be located in the depths of Erlong Mountain, more than 20 miles further is the Black Dragon Village, over the Black Dragon Village is the border of Qingyang County, and then walk about 20 miles of mountain road to reach the Longxugou stronghold, this is of course a shortcut to Qingyang County, but the problem is that Fujitang Gaoying will not take the main road, but choose to take this rugged mountain road to Qingyang County?
Liu Chang repeatedly asked himself in his heart, but found that this possibility still existed.
The Battle of Jinjiang is imminent, and Fujitang Gaoying is anxious to return to Jiujiang, and it is entirely possible to take a shortcut to Qingyang.
If this is really the case, this proves that Liu Chang's guess is correct, this is indeed a big conspiracy
Xu Shijiu clearly wanted to counterattack, he clearly wanted to counterattack, and wanted to turn defeat into victory in one fell swoop, and destroy the main force of Fujitang Gaoying's independent mixed 14th Brigade
Xu Jiu is really crazy, in order to realize his intentions, he did not hesitate to risk his life, and he did not hesitate to gamble with his life, but if things are really as he guessed, then it is really possible for Fujitang Gaoying's independent mixed 14th Brigade to suffer a big loss
After the heavy defeat of the 19th detachment, Fujido Takaei transferred the three infantry brigades, the artillery brigade, the engineer brigade, the baggage brigade, and the chariot squad that were independently mixed into the 14th Brigade to Chikou first, and only two infantry brigades, plus cavalry brigades, remained in Longkou at present, with a total strength of about 2,000 men.
If there were only five or six hundred remnants of the 19th Detachment, plus an independent battalion of Wang Laohu, it would definitely not be possible to gnaw at the troops left in Longkou by the 14th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade, and the 2,000 Japanese soldiers were not Haneda's military police brigade, but the front-line combat troops, even if the remnants of the 19th Detachment did not know where to get so many weapons and ammunition, and they would definitely lose if they were joined by the 14th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade.
However, the question is, will Xu Shijiu only have such a few means? He must have something else to do
Liu Changren is not stupid, and he is a secret agent, so he quickly thought of another possibility.
If Niu Sigen was the death room laid by Xu Shijiu from the beginning, the situation would be completely different
Thinking of this, Liu Chang suddenly sat on pins and needles, no, he must send the news as soon as possible, and he must report these news to Fujido Gaoying as soon as possible, otherwise, there will be big trouble in the independent mixed 14th Brigade, although Liu Chang doesn't care about how many people will die in Little Japan, he even hopes in his heart that Little Japan would better die all, but he can't help but worry, in case the 14th Brigade of Little Japan Independent Mixed Brigade is beaten badly, will Fujido Gaoying be angry with him?
Because, if Liu Chang does not report such important information in time, Fujitang Gaoying will definitely wonder, does he Liu Chang want to repeat?
Taking advantage of the remnants of the 19th Detachment and the officers and soldiers of the L Battalion of the Independent Regiment of the New Fourth Army being repairing the fortifications, Liu Chang quietly shrank back and moved into the grove behind him little by little.
Entering the depths of the woods, to make sure that no one saw him again, Liu Chang was about to turn around and run wildly, but a cold voice suddenly sounded.
Liu Chang stiffly stopped his steps, and then turned back mechanically, only to see an officer from the nineteenth detachment walking from behind.
"Isn't this Minister Liu of the New Fourth Army?" This officer is none other than Li Zihan's guard Zhao Dahai, who was untying his hands just now, when he suddenly saw Liu Chang running over in a panic, he immediately stood up, shouted to stop, and stopped Liu Chang, Zhao Dahai stepped forward and said, "Where are you going?" This is in a hurry? ”
"Huh?" Liu Chang hurriedly said, "I have diarrhea and am looking for a place to relieve myself." ”
"Untie your hands?" Yang Dashu looked Liu Chang up and down a few times, and said with a smile, "You don't have to run that far to relieve yourself, right?" ”
"I'm not afraid to smoke my brothers." Liu Chang smiled hard and said, "Then, that's it." ”
Zhao Dahai snorted a small bush next to him, and said coldly: "Hurry up, don't you need me to take off your pants for you, right?" ”
After seeing Liu Changzheng take off his pants and squat in the bushes, Zhao Dahai spit out the grass stalk in his mouth, and then called a sentry over and whispered to the sentry: "You show me this guy, I always think this guy is not a good person." ”
Liu Chang relieved his hand, looked out through the gap in the bushes, and saw a veteran of the nineteenth detachment holding a gun, looking at this side vigilantly, he didn't dare to make any rash moves.
After honestly untying his hand, Liu Chang returned to the gourd valley in a daze.
(Dividing Line)
Fujido Takaei ended up leaving Haneda with only two infantry squadrons.
With only two infantry squadrons, even if the gendarmerie brigade is added, it will be a little difficult to suppress the southern Anhui garrison division of the Imperial Association Army, which has been expanded to a small size of 4,000 people, and the officers and men of the southern Anhui garrison division of the imperial association army are all from Longkou, and in line with the principle of stationing in other places, it is no longer possible to let them be stationed in Longkou County.
Little Japan stationed an infantry brigade in Chikou, as well as a naval fleet and marines stationed for a long time, and once something happened in Chikou, the main force of the 14th Independent Mixed Brigade stationed in Jiujiang and the main force of the 13th Independent Mixed Brigade stationed in Hefei could quickly rush to the aid from the waterway, so there was no need to worry about what chaos would happen in Chikou in the Southern Anhui Garrison Division of the Imperial Allied Army.
After hastily eating at noon, Fujido Gaoying left two infantry squadrons, plus Wang Fusheng's independent regiment to Haneda, and then took the main force of the 14th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade and the main force of the Southern Anhui Garrison Division of the Imperial Allied Army on the road.
