Seeing Owara Shigemi's figure leave, Haneda looked back at Fujido Takaei and asked, "Your Excellency General, after the Southern Anhui Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army suffered this heavy blow, its combat potential has been greatly weakened, and next, is it time to sweep Erlong Mountain?" ”

"Sweeping Erlong Mountain?" Fujitang Gaoying shook his head and said in a deep voice, "No, if we sweep Erlong Mountain now, the price that the imperial army will have to pay will still be very large, so we still have to do one more job, to weaken the strength of the anti-Japanese salvation army in southern Anhui." ”

"The most powerful weakening?" Haneda asked, "How?" ”

"Haneda-san, please forgive me for selling Guanzi." Fujido Takaei slapped a shot on the chessboard and said with a smile, "But tomorrow, you'll know everything." ”

In the afternoon of the same day, the Ohara Brigade held a performance at the station of the Longkou Mixed Brigade of the puppet army.

The so-called Longkou Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army was expanded from the plainclothes team of Yan Sanquan, with the number of brigades, but in fact there was only one battalion.

The performance subjects of the Ohara Brigade include shooting, fighting, lurking, assassination, etc., Zuihou also engaged in a confrontation exercise with the puppet army Longkou Mixed Brigade, a brigade of the Ohara Brigade against the entire mixed brigade, the battlefield was selected in Niutou Mountain outside Yanjia Town, the result of the confrontation was obvious, and the Owara Brigade easily destroyed the headquarters of the Longkou Mixed Brigade and won a complete victory.

Fujido Takayoung Zuihou attended the ceremony, which is the so-called celebration of the formation of the Longkou Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Cooperative Army, and returned to the headquarters after a few words of training in front of more than 500 officers and soldiers of the mixed brigade.

After sending off Fujido Gaoying, Yan Sanquan, the commander of the Longkou Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army, who had just taken office, returned to the brigade headquarters in disgrace.

Yan Sanquan is a real disgrace, not only was the newly formed mixed brigade beaten by the Ohara brigade and lost his temper, but he himself also ended up completely defeated in the direct confrontation with Ohara Shigemi, until now, he still has a footprint on his face, which was rewarded to him by Ohara Shigemi in the fight.

Seeing that Yan Sanquan was sullen after returning to the brigade headquarters, his cousin, the deputy brigade commander of the mixed brigade and the commander of the L regiment, and then the commander of the L battalion, Yan Weixin, was not happy, and said: "Big brother, don't take it too seriously, the Ohara brigade will also rely on the firepower, they want to make Hanyang like us, maybe they can't pay us back." ”

"Restoration, do you really think so?" Yan Sanquan looked at Yan Weixin coldly.

Yan Weixin was a little weak-hearted, in the confrontation in the afternoon, the Ohara Brigade was not only fierce, but the most impressive, but their hand-to-hand combat jishu, even a master like Yan Sanquan was no better than Ohara Shigemi, and the remaining officers and soldiers of the mixed brigade were not to mention, it was beaten, it was called a fart and pee.

After thinking about it, Yan Sanquan said: "No, we have to find a way to get more people, especially some good hands, otherwise, little Japan will have to look down on us?" ”

"Yes, yes, the mixed brigade should be expanded." Yan Weixin nodded again and again.

For Yan Sanquan's proposal, Yan Weixin of course welcomed it with both hands, now the Longkou Mixed Brigade has the strength of a battalion, and he is only a deputy battalion commander at best, when the mixed brigade expands into a real brigade, he can really become the deputy brigade commander, and no one will think that he has too many soldiers.

"It's a pity that the strong men in Yanjia Town were all taken away by the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army in southern Anhui." Yan Weixin said regretfully, "Why don't we go to Lijia Town and Hewan Town to catch some strong men?" ”

"With some bad ideas, do you think Fujitang Gaoying will agree to us arresting the strong man?" Yan Sanquan didn't have a good breath, "Besides, the people of Lijia Town and Hewan Town have never dealt with our Yanjia Town, so what's the use of asking them?" ”

"Then ......," Yan Weixin scratched his head and said, "Then there is no way." ”

"Not necessarily." Yan Sanquan touched his chin, and a hint of discoloration flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Chongqing, No. 16 Luojiawan.

When Mao Renfeng walked into Dai Li's office, Dai Li was closing his eyes and recuperating.

The Sino-Japanese War entered its fourth year, and the frontal war was relatively relaxed, except for Xue Yue's Ninth Theater from time to time with the Japanese Army's Llll Army to break out in battles above the corps scale, but the rest of the theaters rarely broke out large-scale battles, at this stage, the frontal battlefield has entered a relatively quiet stage.

However, as the frontal battle fell silent, the battle between the battlefield behind enemy lines and the secret battlefield became more intense.

In the battlefield behind enemy lines, since Okamura Ninji took office as commander of the North China Front, the Eighth Route Army and the Nationalist Army in North China immediately entered an extremely difficult stage. In the secret battlefield, as No. 76 grows in wings, the activities of the military unification, the central unification, and the underground party organizations of the Chinese Communist Party are becoming more and more difficult.

Seeing that Dai Li's face was tired, Mao Renfeng asked, "Bureau, is there any bad news?" ”

Dai Li sighed and said gloomily: "The little Japanese gendarmerie has just attacked the Tianjin intelligence station, Zeng Che and Chen Ziyi have already fallen into the hands of the little Japan, if nothing else, most of the two have been executed."

"Huh?" Mao Renfeng didn't know how to persuade Dai Li, this loss is big, in the layout of the military command, the status of Tianjin Station is second only to, Shanghai Station and Beiping Station, now Chen Ziyi, Zeng Che have been captured, the Tianjin Station of the military command can be said to have been uprooted by Little Japan, and it will be difficult to rebuild.

"But......" Dai Li, after a pause, continued, "and that's not the worst news. ”

"Huh?" Mao Renfeng was taken aback again and asked, "Bureau, is there worse bad news than this?" ”

Dai Lian nodded, picked up a secret telegram on the table and handed it to Mao Renfeng, Mao Rentou was a little confused after reading it, and asked: "Bureau, the Longkou Intelligence Station is just a small station, even if you let Little Japan even serve the pot, it's not a big deal, hiss." Halfway through speaking, Mao Renfeng suddenly gasped and said no more.

After a long time, Mao Renfeng said in a deep voice: "Bureau, are you worried that the Silk Road will be interrupted? ”

As a secret communication line from Shanghai to the rear, the Silk Road played an important role in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War and after the fall of Shanghai, and now with the opening of the Yunnan-Burma Highway, the Silk Road has little military value, but it still plays a very important role politically, because it is the only secret communication channel between Chongqing and Shanghai, such as sending agents to the occupied areas, and escorting important people from Shanghai to Chongqing, all have to use this communication line.

The Longkou Intelligence Station, as an important node on the Silk Road, has a very important status.

At that moment, Mao Renfeng said: "Bureau, the Silk Road must not be interrupted, and the Longkou Intelligence Station must be restored as soon as possible."

"I don't need to say that." Dai Li rubbed his temples and said tiredly, "You have the right person."

"The right person?" Mao Renfeng pondered for a moment, and a graceful figure suddenly appeared in front of him

Black Dragon Village, Headquarters of the Nineteenth Detachment.

It was already half a month after the sneak attack on Panshizhai, after the sneak attack on Panshizhai, Xu Shijiu moved his headquarters to Heilongzhai, which was more inconvenient, more concealed and easier to defend and difficult to attack, and the entire defensive deployment was also adjusted, no longer placing the four main regiments on the periphery, but arranging in echelons in several main directions.

Xu Jiu didn't dare to inform the Qingyang County Independent Regiment of Yu Huan's death, but Shu Tongwen still knew.

Shu Tongwen immediately rushed over from Yan Yao, and Xu Shijiu took him to Yu Huan's grave, Shu Tongwen sat in front of Yu Huan's tomb and didn't say a word for a long time.

Seeing Shu Tongwen's sad appearance, Gao Shenxing, who accompanied him, couldn't help but persuade: "Awen, you scold me a few words, blame me for not protecting Xiaohuan, blame me for ......"

"Don't blame anyone, I don't blame anyone." Shu Tongwen shook his head, and finally spoke, "If you fight, then you have to have sacrifices, you can't spread people, others can sacrifice, you can't, that's not good." ”

Xu Shijiu sighed, and he didn't know how to persuade him for a while.

After opening the chatterbox, Shu Tongwen began to talk in a mouthful of words, but not to Gao Shenxing, nor to Xu Shijiu, but to Yu Huan's tombstone, Shu Tongwen hid it in his heart, and said everything that he was usually embarrassed to say, in normal times, Xu Shijiu and Gao Shenxing would definitely make fun of Shu Tongwen, but today, they couldn't laugh.

Shu Tongwen talked for a long time, and Xu Shijiu and Gao Shenxing also accompanied him for a long time, until Liu Xin came.

After listening to Liu Xin's report, Xu Shijiu and Gao Shenxing changed their faces at the same time, and the head of the regiment, Niu Sigen, was secretly in contact with the people of Little Japan
