Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Battle of Madang? quiet

The deserted village was panicked like a lost dog, and more than thirty gendarmes did not have the momentum when they came, they grabbed their tails and fled quickly, the so-called bushido spirit, at this time, they were thrown into the thick smoke and dust behind the wheels, and they were not farts.

In fact, with China's current military superiority, the deserted village has no chance to escape. However, in terms of letting him live, Xiao Yi, Qian Xianglin and Huang Laiying showed an extreme tacit understanding.

The work of cleaning up the battlefield, because of Xiao Yi's suggestion, was handed over to the Taihu guerrillas. Xiao Yat means this: You can't let people come for nothing, even if you return a favor. The relationship between military personnel is far purer than in society. Although everyone didn't make it clear, whether it was Qian Xianglin, Guo Dai and Chen Jiajun, they all acquiesced to the fact that Xiao Yi would become the supreme commander of this uprising force.

Huang Laiying was not polite. The Taihu guerrillas did not have a stable supply compared to the guerrillas belonging to the Central Army, nor did they have abundant funds to help them like the Fox Pupil agents. Ninety percent of the development of the Taihu guerrillas depended on the capture of the battlefield.

Deserted Village and the others must have been frightened. No matter how powerful they appear on the surface, in the face of life and death, they are no different from ordinary people. They ran fast, Guo Dai looked at their backs, and asked Xiao Yi unwillingly: "Why do you want to let them go?" ”

Xiao Yi smiled and looked at Qian Xianglin and Huang Laiying: "Here are all people from Captain Qian and Captain Huang, you shouldn't ask me this, right?" ”

Guo Dai showed amazing military talent in this anyway operation, but it was a matter of strategy, and it was a conspiracy, but he looked immature. Qian Xianglin felt that it was necessary to explain this problem, so as not to leave a shadow in Guo Dai's heart, and he explained: "Old Guo, don't you think that if the deserted village is alive, it will play a greater role? In the Botian detachment, there are still a few thousands of Taiwanese! ”

Lin Haifeng was afraid that Guo Dai would not be enlightened, and added: "When I go back to the deserted village, I will definitely add fuel and vinegar to tell everything that happened here, so that Xiao Lin's suspicion will definitely be heavier, and he should not use Taiwan soldiers again in the future." ”

Guo Dai was stunned for a moment, and then he understood, and he asked worriedly: "Then will they be in danger?" All this, after all, is because of us. ”

"No, it won't. Unless they want to give up Taiwan," Ms. Huang said.

Guo Dai thought about it, and finally figured it out, his eyes lit up and said: "In this way, escaping back from the deserted village is equivalent to bringing Xiaolin a problem. ”

Everyone laughed.

The results of this battle were quite fruitful, not to mention anything else, dozens of military trucks were captured alone. Looking at so many military trucks, Xiao Yi made a decision: "Select thirty cars in the best condition, then release the fuel of other cars, and prepare some spare parts, let's withdraw!" ”

After the Taihu guerrillas cleaned up the battlefield - mainly collecting weapons and ammunition, Huang Laiying said goodbye to Xiao Yi and them. "Sir Xiao, I hope we can still fight side by side together!" He held Xiao Yi's hand and said so.

The Taihu guerrillas are not well equipped, but their mental outlook is excellent and their combat effectiveness is good. In Xiao Yi's eyes, this is a somewhat mysterious force. The Taihu guerrillas have already made a name for themselves in the area of Taihu County, which is a headache for the Japanese army. Xiao Yat admired them very much, and he said seriously: "There will definitely be a chance, as long as the Japanese are still there, we will have a chance." ”

The Taihu guerrillas sank into the mountains with their lucrative booty. Seeing them leave, Qian Xianglin, Chen Jiajun and other main middle and low-level officers of Qian Xiang's brigade surrounded Xiao Yi, they had just discussed the future route of the troops, and at this time they reached a consensus, thinking that if the troops wanted to survive well in the unfamiliar mainland, they could only take refuge in the Xuebing Army. Qian Xianglin looked at Xiao Yi and said, "Sir Xiao, we have discussed, and we decided to follow General Ouyang to fight devils in the future, but I don't know if the Dao Scholar Army will accept us." Brothers, I don't know the bottom of my heart, I hope you can give us an answer - please! With that, he bowed respectfully.

Maybe it's because they've been in the Botian detachment for a long time, or because they've dealt too much with the Japanese, Qian Xianglin's current behavior and habits are greatly influenced by the Japanese, which makes Xiao Yi frown slightly. Of course, this has nothing to do with a matter of principle, so he just frowned.

Regarding the departure and stay of Qian Xiang's brigade, Ouyang Yun had an idea as early as the beginning of the formulation of the "Shuangcao Plan". Xiao Yi received this explanation in the mission telegram, he glanced at everyone, and said slowly: "You have this determination, very good. I can tell you clearly that the Commander-in-Chief has always been concerned about your situation, and he has told us to do everything in our power to protect your safety, and once you leave the Potian detachment, we must try to bring you safely across the river. I have a few questions that I hope you will answer honestly. Do you want to stay in the army? Or do you want to go back to Taiwan? ”

In the absence of much trust between the two sides, the question is a bit acute and easily misleading. However, Qian Xianglin did not discuss this issue just now. He glanced at the others and said, "I want to stay in the army." No matter what happened in the past, now, I regard myself as a Chinese, and as a Chinese soldier, I must of course fulfill my duties as a soldier in this national crisis. With that, his gaze turned to everyone again.

"We are the only captain who looks ahead!" Everywhere Qian Xianglin's gaze went, almost everyone was in the same tone.

Xiao Yi's eyes narrowed, for Qian Xianglin's influence on these Taiwanese officers. However, because of Qian Xianglin's previous performance, he didn't think much about it, and he continued to ask: "If you stay in the army, then you will have to fight against the Japanese, and maybe even against the army from Taiwan, are you mentally prepared?" Furthermore, what are your requirements for future treatment? After saying this, he glanced at everyone, and added: "Don't worry about anything, our commander-in-chief is very open-minded, and he will do what he says, if you have any requirements, just mention them, as long as we have this condition, we will try our best to meet them." ”

Qian Xianglin immediately said: "Sir Xiao, you don't need to ask this question, we have already exchanged fire with the Japanese army just now, this should be the best answer to your first question, right?" As for the possibility of encountering troops composed of compatriots in future battles, I think that since they are obsessed, they should have the consciousness to fall under our guns. Condition? I don't have any conditions, I know the truth, the welfare of the cadet army is very good, if I have any other requirements, then on behalf of all the officers and soldiers of the brigade, no, including Guo Dai and they put forward a request, we hope to get the respect and rights that a cadet soldier should have like an ordinary cadet - that's all! ”

Qian Xianglin's words were not leaky, and the others nodded in agreement when they heard it, and their eyes immediately focused on Xiao Yi's face.

Xiao Yi smiled and nodded, "In this case, there is no problem." Then he stretched out his right hand to Qian Xianglin and said with a smile: "Welcome to join the Cadet Army!" Holding Qian Xianglin's hand, he said to everyone: "From now on, you will be a member of the Taiwan Volunteer Brigade, and you will be under the direct command of the General Headquarters." ”

Qian Xianglin lowered his head and said, "It's a great honor to be a member of the Cadet Army!" ”

Xiao Yi let go of his hand and said, "Before I came, the commander-in-chief explained that in order to prevent the Japanese from becoming angry and angry, he took more extreme actions against you, and asked me to take you across the river as soon as possibleβ€”β€”"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Guo Dai, who said: "Brother Lin said before that he would let Captain Huang of the Taihu Lake guerrillas help us cross the river, but they have left now. ”

Xiao Yi looked at him and smiled: "The Taihu guerrillas are very familiar with this place, and there are many ways to cross the river, but if you want to cross the river, you don't necessarily have to rely on them, as long as I want to, we can cross the river safely at any time." However, I listened to Captain Qian just now, no, it should be Brigade Commander Qian now. I agree with what Brigade Commander Qian said just now, since you have become Chinese soldiers, you have the obligation to make a certain contribution to this country, so I have an idea, before leaving, should we do something to make our Taiwan Volunteer Brigade famous? This is just a little premature suggestion of mine, and the final decision is in the hands of Brigadier Qian. ”

When Xiao Yi said the last paragraph, Qian Xianglin's face changed slightly, but soon, he looked at his subordinates and said, "Chief Xiao's suggestion is very good, brothers, even if we want to thank Commander-in-Chief Ouyang for his concern, we should show something." Well, before crossing the river, we'll make a little movement for him. ”

Ouyang Yun's order to Xiao Yi was actually very simple, that is, to help Lin Haifeng maximize the results of the "Shuangcao Plan", and then safely bring the Taiwan soldiers across the river anyway. However, with Xiao Yat's keen sense of smell, once he felt that he could still do something about it, how could he be willing to complete the task so easily?

In Changling Town, in the headquarters of the Botian detachment, Xiao Lin woke up and listened to the report of the deserted village without a sound, his face suddenly became iron-blue, and a raging anger appeared in his eyes.

According to the narration of the deserted village, Qian Xiang Kiichiro has long been rebellious, not only him, but everyone in Qian Xiang's brigade has bad intentions, and the reason why they have been behaving decently before is just waiting for an opportunity. This time, even if there is no rebellion from Chun Ichiro and others, they will still rebel when they seize the opportunity in the future. Xiao Lin thought of the other Taiwanese officers and soldiers in the detachment, and suddenly found in horror that he had lost control of the detachment, and now the Taiwanese in the Potian detachment were not only no longer trustworthy subordinates, but had even become enemies who might kill him. So, what should he do next?
