Before the Mid-Autumn Festival in 1933, the mountainous areas inside and outside the Great Wall of North China were a gratifying scene of a bumper harvest in sight. On the fruit tree where the fruit is bent, the autumn mood is even stronger. The peaches have not been picked, the apples are flying tenaciously, and the peanuts, cotton, and soybeans that are full of mountains and fields have added a lot of joy to the already good mountains and rivers, and made the land of China more perfect.

However, the people of this mountainous area have no intention of caring for the good fruits and crops that are about to rot, let alone caring for these fruits and crops that are still ripe, topdressing with water, and spraying insects and pesticides. The Japanese devils have already hit the doorstep, who is in the mood to fiddle with them, such a golden harvest season, but to suffer a deep war disaster.

The rumbling of cannon fire continued to come from afar, making the not very calm mountain even more unpeaceful.

Could it be that the beautiful homeland that our ancestors have relied on for generations to survive can be seized by the invaders for no reason? Could it be that these fruits that we have worked so hard to cultivate can also be snatched by jackals without hard work? No! Absolutely not!?

To this end, with the efforts of patriots Feng Yuxiang, General Fang Zhenwu and General Ji Hongchang, and with the assistance of the Communist Party of China, the Chahar Anti-Japanese Allied Army was established in Zhangjiakou, the capital of Chahar Province. In just a few days, the four county towns of Kangbao, Guyuan, Baochang and Duolun were recovered.

Since September 18, they took the initiative to fire the first shot at the aggressor on behalf of the Chinese army, and also created the great feat of the Chinese army recovering the lost territory from the Japanese puppet army for the first time, and thus opened the prelude to the Chinese army's initiative to attack the aggressor.

At this happy time, Chiang Kai-shek couldn't sit still, he was going back and forth in the office room, and weakly picked up the phone and spoke into the microphone: "Give me He Yingqin from Beiping...... Should it be chinned? Feng Yuxiang and Fang Zhenwu, under the command of Soviet Russia, set up their own mountains, held the banner of anti-Japanese resistance, and did not sit idly by......"

He Yingqin from Beiping held the telephone and said cautiously: "A few bad things and a few disobedient warlords are messing up, we must not let the allies let it develop, we must do what the president wants...... Be! …… There must be a stab in his back...... Good...... Be! …… He ordered Zhang Yaoming to be behind him...... Be...... Be! ”

After Lao Jiang finished beating He Yingqin, he said to the director of the "Military Command" bureau who was standing on the side: "You must keep an eye on the leaders of this so-called allied army for me, and if necessary, you can kill them on a large scale!" ”

"Yes! The students are going to arrange and knock this mountain down! ”

"Niang Xipi, dare to engage in this ...... with Lao Tzu"

At the same time, the Communist Party of China set up the Hebei Provincial Front Committee, which was written by Ke Qingshi, nicknamed Big Nose, and asked Mr. Gu and Peng Tao to go to the Chahar Front Committee to help the "allied forces" do a good job in anti-Japanese work.

Soon after, Song Jiliu and the hoe team bid farewell to Chief of Staff Yu Rongguang and drove to Beiping to join Mr. Liu. Under the protection of the hoe team, Mr. Liu and Mr. Gu, on behalf of the restored Beiping Left League, went to Zhangjiakou to express their condolences and interview the officers and soldiers on the front line, bringing the blessings and care of the people of the whole country to all the officers and soldiers.

After that, they ate and lived with these officers and men from all over the world, took advantage of every available opportunity to publicize to the officers and men the determination of the Communist Party of China to resist Japan, and promptly explained that they had placed great hopes on this newly established anti-Japanese force!

At this moment, whenever Mr. Liu had free time, he had heart-to-heart talks with the officers and men, took the weal and woe of every soldier to heart, suggested that our party show more concern for the soldiers of the "allied army," and reported in a timely manner the victories won on the battlefield, which greatly encouraged the determination of all officers and men to fight the Japanese invaders to the end, and also boosted the confidence of the people of the whole country in resisting Japan and fighting stubbornness.

After Mr. Liu returned to Beiping, he could not calm down for a long time, so he took the initiative to propose to the underground party organization and the "Left Alliance" in Beiping, and together with Song Jiliu and other team members, he went to Chahar to join the anti-Japanese alliance army and go to the front line to kill devils. However, his own request was not approved, and he only agreed that Song Jiliu would bring people over and join the ace army of the Allied Army, with Xuanxia's father as the division commander of the five divisions and one regiment, and directly fight with the Japanese devils.

The first regiment, also known as the Dark Horse Regiment, is the backbone of the backbone of the Allied army. The anti-Japanese hero Zhang Tao served as the head of the regiment, and Mr. Gu was the political commissar. The hoe team was changed to a reconnaissance company, with Song Jiliu as the company commander and Xu Yunduo and Qi Wanhong as the deputy company commanders. At that time, the regiment commander and political commissar asked Song Jiliu to be the deputy regiment commander and the commander of the first battalion, but Song Jiliu did not agree.

At this time, Chiang Kai-shek, who was very jealous, was even more afraid of this army that did not listen to his command, and suggested that his subordinates would also fire at this new force that took the initiative to resist Japan when the devils were fighting against the "Allied Army", so as to consolidate their dominance. For this reason, the leaders of the "allied forces" decided to use force to teach a "lesson" to the stubborn elements who were passive in fighting devils and active in fighting civil wars, so as to urge the recalcitrant troops to march onto the road of resistance against Japan at an early date.

A few days later, the Battle of Xiaotangshan on the outskirts of Beiping began. With the majestic and loud sound of the trumpet, the 2nd Regiment of the 5th Division, which was carrying out the main attack mission, rushed out of the ambush section and launched a fierce attack on the outer fortifications of Xiaotangshan along both sides of the main road.

These outlying fortifications, which were the outposts of the Kuomintang recalcitrant army in Beiping, had recently been set up temporarily, and most of them were scattered and isolated by virtue of some scattered settlements, so that they could be built into a complete defense system in the future. The garrison was also relatively weak, unable to withstand the sudden attack of the Allied army, so it resisted in a hurry for a while, withdrew one after another, and retreated to Xiaotangshan in seven or eight places.

Mr. Zhang Tao and Mr. Gu commanded the troops to follow the pursuit.

At this time, in the intact fortifications near Xiaotangshan, there was a tense atmosphere, five steps and one post, ten steps and one sentry, officers gathered, attendants lined up, and adjutant Wang Da led his subordinates to supervise the battle here.

Kuomintang diehard Zhang Yaoming stood behind a pile of sandbags and raised his binoculars to observe the Allied attack. The men were surrounded like pugs, and they were a little surprised by the speed with which the allies attacked.

He Yingqin's eldest grandson, Xiaoping, stood close to a big tree, carefully observing the offensive and defensive postures of the two sides from the binoculars. He rushed from Beiping to Xiaotangshan the night before, first reported to Zhang Yaoming that the Allied forces would attack the Xiaotangshan area in three days, conveyed He Yingqin's siege plan, and then was sent to the big pillbox to rest.

As soon as Sun Xiaoping fell asleep, he was startled by the fierce gunshots, and rushed here with Wang Da and others. He ran around for most of the night, sleepy and tired, looking at the officers and soldiers who had retreated from the periphery, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised in his dissatisfaction. He removed his binoculars, glanced at Wang Da, and said, "The Allied forces are moving so fast, and they are really fierce!" ”

"Three days? Hum! Zhang Yaoming sneered, looked at Sun Xiaoping and said sarcastically, "Director Sun, as soon as you come, I will say that soldiers are not tired of cheating, and you still don't believe it." Well, that's exactly what I said, right? ”

"According to the information we have, the Allied forces have not been active in this area recently, and in the absence of chariots and horses, it will take at least two or three days to travel, how can they arrive overnight?" Sun Xiaoping lowered his head and thought for a moment, and suddenly said as if he had discovered a miracle, "Is this a bluff?" ”

The brigade chief of staff looked at Sun Xiaoping and did not hide his contempt for him: "You have all been deceived by Ji Hongchang, and you, the director of the intelligence department, have also made mistakes." All the bluffs you are talking about are nonsense, and they will not deliberately surprise the snake before the big operation. It seems that the Allied forces are ahead of He Dashuai, and they must not be careless. ”

"Maybe the Allied forces have been forced to go to Liangshan!" Adjutant He smiled at Sun Xiaoping and said.

"It's better to force Tangshan." The head of the regiment interjected gloatingly.

"Forced to Tangshan, a pun, this statement is so wonderful." The staff officers laughed happily. Wang Da smiled slightly, and habitually touched his big head with his right hand.

Chief of Staff Wang Da didn't have a smile on his face, stared at Sun Xiaoping and asked very worriedly: "The Allied Army has been moving overnight, can the several armies of the National Army arrive in time?" This will seriously affect everyone's unified plan! ”

"That way, it will inevitably make it harder for us to eat them." Sun Xiaoping picked up the binoculars and looked at them again, and then explained, "He Yingqin, chairman of the Beiping Military Branch, is the commander-in-chief of the Xiaotangshan Campaign, and as long as the Allied forces are discovered, they cannot fail to report to him. As long as Brigade Commander Wang can firmly attract the Allied forces to the foot of this Xiaotang Mountain, creating a stalemate situation, Chairman He can mobilize a few people to come over and make him a big dumpling, and he will definitely be able to destroy the Allied forces in one fell swoop. ”

"This-" Sun Xiaoping's explanation could not reassure the scheming chief of staff, and he was about to say something more, when he raised his eyes, he found that Zhang Yaoming was staring at him not very happily. The chief of staff was slightly stunned, swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and raised the telescope pretending to be a cat and a dog.

The chief of staff pointed to the front and said to everyone: "What a strange! What's going on? This attacking team is only a thousand people, Ji Hongchang still has tens of thousands of people, where are the others? What is he doing with us? ”

The Chief of Staff's words aroused everyone's attention, and the people and ghosts all raised their binoculars like dogs, and searched the mountains for signs that could indicate the actions of the Confederates.

"There, what's moving?" Sun Xiaoping, with the sharp eyes of his profession, first discovered the strange phenomenon.

As soon as Sun Xiaoping's words fell, three war horses emerged from the green gauze tent that shook in many places and galloped on the trail. The commander of the regiment could distinguish the other party at a glance from the familiar figure of his horseman, and couldn't help shouting: "In front is Zhang Tao, and in the back is Xu Da and the orderly Shang Quan'an." ”

When Sun Xiaoping witnessed this scene, he suddenly realized, and said in a very affirmative tone: "Fang Zhenwu and Ji Hongchang are using the second regiment to fight the outpost, and the dark horse regiment is their second ladder. ”

In fact, the intelligence chief under He Yingqin was mistaken, and there was only one platoon of allied troops in the green gauze tent deliberately shaking there, making a big fuss array.

The chief of staff was still not at ease, and said suspiciously: "In Xuanxia's father's division, the second regiment has the worst combat effectiveness, why use them as the first echelon?" ”

The deputy brigade commander has been accompanying him, and he has never interjected, so he pretended to be clever and grabbed a sentence: "Isn't this clear, the Second Regiment is not a descendant of the Communist Party, Ji Hongchang, a selfish guy, asked them to take the lead, this is called bullying outsiders!" Zhang Tao followed behind, maybe he was watching them. ”

"Yes, that's it!" Brigade Commander Zhang Yaoming smiled reassuringly, swept his eyes at the little leader beside him and said, "It seems that Ji Hongchang is going to fight for his old book." The order went down: all sections of the fortifications should increase firepower, concentrate troops, prepare for counterattacks, and strive to eat Ji Hongchang's Xuanxia father as soon as possible. He turned to a staff officer and said, "Send a telegram to contact Shunyi and ask Lieutenant General Xi Yiyi, commander of the Eighth Division of the Kwantung Army, to send planes to bomb the positions of the Allied forces." ”

When Sun Xiaoping heard this, he was taken aback, he never dreamed that Zhang Yaoming had hooked up with his mortal enemy, Lieutenant General Xiyi of the little devil.

Wang Da looked at Sun Xiaoping's frightened look, and just said with a slight smile: "What's all the fuss about this, we can't all count on the Chinese, it's better to keep a little more hand!" ”

The incident was too sudden, Sun Xiaoping was not prepared at all, he didn't know what to say for a while, and he couldn't answer a word with his mouth open.

The deputy brigade commander stared at Sun Xiaoping happily and said very proudly; "Mr. Commissioner, our bet is that we will never be able to bet all on the national army. When the domestic warlords were fighting and the Kuomintang and the Communist Party were fighting, little Japan took the opportunity to break in, which called the family not to bully outsiders, and let the Japanese bargain for a big bargain. Now, who still believes in these warlords who protect their own strength! ”

Sun Xiaoping quickly turned around and said with a smile on his face: "The second master, you are really thoughtful, this is really foolproof, left and right." Chairman Chiang said: Outside the outside must first be at home, and everything must be at home first. As long as it is conducive to the great cause of domestic reunification, we can ignore all other matters and know nothing. ”

Zhang Yaoming and his subordinates laughed happily.

Such shameless words of betraying the country made even the treacherous and cunning chief of staff blush when he heard it.

"The Confederates are coming!" The deputy brigade commander suddenly exclaimed in shock.

", what's so scary!" Zhang Yaoming glared at his deputy brigade commander, and continued with a bright face: "If I don't give them some color, they really don't know that I have more than just a few clicks!" ”

The vanguard of the main attacking force is approaching the main pass of the front.

Suddenly, a gong sounded, and all watchtowers, bunkers and other fortifications began to sweep at the same time, and the intersecting firepower formed an impermeable fire network, tightly covering the various passes of the fortifications and blocking the advance road of the Allied army.

Zhang Yaoming slapped his palm, looked at the minions around him again, and laughed loudly: "Haha, these 'peanuts', just let his mother's allies taste them well!" ”

At half past six in the morning, the autumn fog crept in, and the Koyuyama area was filled with a morning fog with extremely low visibility. The fierce gunfire gradually thinned out, and the wisps of gunpowder smoke were atomized before they could leave the trenches. The main attacking force of the Allied army, following Ji Hongchang's orders, began to retreat under the pretense of being defeated.
