Chapter 140: Hefei Fengyun (3)

Xu Jiwu was embarrassed and refused the Snow Fox Brigade to enter the city, as if he couldn't speak, right? They are a strong force in the Anti-Japanese War, everyone knows, if they are turned away, it will be very affected, the Tenth Army has just lost Hefei, and they don't know how to deal with it, and then it is rumored that because they are afraid of the Japanese attack, they refuse the Snow Fox Brigade to enter the city, which is not easy to do.

He Guozhen also knew what Xu Jiwu was embarrassed about, and said in a low voice: "Division commander, I have a good way, Snow Fox is looking for a temporary place to rest, they are the troops of the First War Zone, and they are not under our command, besides, Snow Fox has always been a team directly under the control of the War Zone, it is better to do this, no one can say anything." ”

Xu Jiwu listened to He Guozhen's words, and nodded again and again: "Good way, smart, then you can do this matter, don't cause unpleasantness." ”

He Guozhen knew that this matter would fall on his head, why did he remind Xu Jiwu, the real reason is only known to him, since the division commander asked him to deal with it, he nodded and said: "Then I'll deal with it." ”

Xu Jiwu said: "The conditions are more favorable, I heard that Snow Fox is the captain of Liu Yuanshan in reputation, but it is actually still in the hands of that woman, it is said that she has a bit of backstage power, try not to offend, extraordinary times." ”

"I understand." He Guozhen nodded in agreement, went out of the division headquarters to the north city gate, and ordered the soldiers to open the city gate and come out with the guards.

Liu Yuanshan They are also very strange, the snow fox is a genuine army, and they want to take a rest when they come here, and there are not many people, so there should be no problem, but the soldiers went in to report, and after such a long time, he frowned and asked, "Hey, what the hell do you two say Xu Jiwu is doing?" ”

Dai Zong beside him said, "It can't be that you don't agree with us entering the city, right?" ”

Lai Changwen said: "Why? ”

Dai Zong said: "I'm afraid I'm worried that we will attract devils. ”

Lai Changwen shook his head: "Impossible, I know a little bit about Xu Jiwu, he is still an anti-Japanese faction who is very capable of fighting, and he will not be so timid, but we are low-level officers and don't know much." ”

Liu Yuanshan snorted and asked Xue Ru, "Miss, what do you say?" "Xue Ru can't say why, it stands to reason that it won't be like this, won't he attack if he doesn't come to the devil? Shaking his head and saying, "Not necessarily, I can't say, it's impossible." ”

Lu'an is not big, go in from the city gate to report, it shouldn't be so long, is it really not agreed to go in? However, there was no reason, so I didn't speak, and waited. After a long time, the city gate opened, and an officer came out from inside, with guards, and when he saw this posture, Xue Ru had a hunch that several of them guessed correctly.

The soldiers of the snow fox were all standing behind, I don't know why Lu'an didn't let them enter the city, Liu Yuanshan and Xue Ru They also stood and waited for the officer to come over, and saw a colonel coming over, Liu Yuanshan took a few steps forward, the colonel glanced at a few people, and said: "Chief of staff of the 48th Division, He Guozhen, which one is the captain of the Snow Fox Brigade Liu Yuanshan?" ”

This tone made Liu Yuanshan's face sink at that time, although he was a lieutenant colonel, but the snow fox had always been respected and used to it, even if he saw a major general, he would be very warm and polite to them. How can a small colonel's division chief of staff be so arrogant? Calling yourself by name, can't you see how many steps you take forward? The attitude also became cold: "Liu is Liu Yuanshan, Chief of Staff He." ”

He Guozhen raised his hand slightly and said, "I heard that you are going to enter Lu'an, why?" ”

"You ......" Liu Yuanshan's fire came up at that time, what the hell is this, they are all national army troops, I just want to ask why, and I should ask after entering the city, do you treat the snow fox as an enemy? But he was the captain, suppressed the fire and said: "The snow fox is fighting continuously, and the soldiers are tired and want to rest in Lu'an. ”

He Guozhen nodded and asked, "Is there an order from the war zone?" ”

Dai Zong couldn't stand it anymore, he didn't have a good temper like Liu Yuanshan: "Chief of Staff He, what do you mean?" Do you doubt the identity of the snow fox? ”

He Guozhen glanced at Dai Zong arrogantly: "Who are you?" Don't know how to talk to the chief? ”

This time did not make Dai Zong angry, Snow Fox's military rank has not been high, even when he has eight thousand people, Xue Ru is only a temporary colonel, and the others are lower, like now, Liu Yuanshan is only a lieutenant colonel captain, Dai Zong is even lower, just a major, but they are all soldiers, knowing that this is a rule and military discipline, they raised their hands angrily and saluted: "Dai Zong, deputy captain of the Snow Fox Brigade, Chief of Staff He will give an explanation." ”

He Guozhen still said with a cold face: "You came from the enemy-occupied area, and you are in such a military uniform, without the order of your superiors, Lu'an is an important place on the front line, how can you let you come and go at will?" ”

Liu Yuanshan also heard that this was an obvious difficulty, a brigade of eight or nine hundred people in Snow Fox, and the strength of a division in Lu'an City, but when people said this, they couldn't say anything, so they asked in a cold voice: "What do you want?" ”

He Guozhen said: "Put down your weapons, you can enter the city, and when the reason is found, I will return it to you, otherwise you can't enter the city." ”

Lai Changwen's mind was not slow to react, and he immediately said: "Chief of Staff He, I still doubt that you have surrendered to the devil, let the snow fox put down his arms, that is impossible." ”

His words reminded Liu Yuanshan that the situation is strange now, many troops have surrendered and become traitors, Snow Fox and the 48th Division have no grievances, and they don't know Xu Jiwu and this He Guozhen at all, why is he embarrassing himself, and he has to disarm Snow Fox. Alert, he instinctively said: "You surrendered to the Japanese, come to the people, give orders, prepare for battle, and take Lu'an." ”

He Guozhen was really a little scared, although he had a division, but he was not necessarily stronger than the devils of a wing, the combat effectiveness of the snow fox was beaten, and he hurriedly said: "Who surrendered?" Division Commander Xu said, you can't enter the city until the identity order is not clear, you can go to the banyan tree and stay first, and wait for our division commander to figure it out. ”

At this time, the people of the snow fox were on fire, and they were not allowed to enter the city, but they got some banyan trees, Dai Zong said: "No, Lao Tzu is going to enter Lu'an today, which one dares to stop it, I see how many heads he has." ”

He Guozhen didn't expect Snow Fox to be so arrogant, and took a few steps back nervously: "You want to rebel?" ”

Xue Ru is dressed in civilian clothes, she doesn't have any position now, Liu Yuanshan and their positions are all appointed by the Ministry of Military Affairs, this kind of thing dealing with the national army, it is inconvenient for her to come forward, so she has not spoken.

He Guozhen's performance made Xue Ru very strange, why is this? Xue Ru thinks that the relationship between the snow fox and the various units is very good, although he does not listen to orders and fights independently, it is also a matter that the theater and the headquarters are not satisfied with, besides, the first theater ordered the snow fox to assist in the defense of Hefei, although Hefei has fallen, but it does not mean that there is no order. 48th Division: Why is this? didn't understand why, so he kept watching coldly, and when he saw that Dai Zonghuo was on fire, Liu Yuanshan's face was also very ugly, and the soldiers behind him were also angry when they heard it.

No one will be satisfied, the snow fox is fighting, fighting with the devils, these people are hiding behind and losing their land, at this time, they put on this face, of course, they are angry. As soon as he heard Dai Zong's order, he immediately raised his gun. Although Xue Ru was also dissatisfied, she understood that the situation was complicated, so she should first figure out why, Hefei is a devil, why can't she fight without even knowing the reason, right? He took a few steps forward and waved his hand back to stop the soldier, and said to He Guozhen: "Send someone to take us over." ”

He Guozhen is also very smart, standing in the middle of the line, a girl in casual clothes, how could he not see it. But the distance is a little farther, and he can't see the image clearly, and he knows that the snow fox has always been controlled by Xue Ru, and seeing this woman can shake the main snow fox brigade with her gestures, of course it is Xue Ru, but he didn't expect Xue Ru to be so young.

The girl's age is kept secret, and Xue Ru is reluctant to mention the issue of age, so it is rumored that the captain of the Snow Fox is very young, but He Guozhen didn't expect to be so young, this is not an adult at all, which is a matter of youth.

But what was so angry was that Xue Ru didn't introduce himself or say anything, and directly said that he would let them take them to Rongshu Town, which made him both strange and surprised. Xue Ru is at such a young age, it is indeed unusual to have this patience, and it is good to repair the snow fox according to his ideas, but all this must be Xu Jiwu does not know, if the trouble starts, the division commander will have to blame him. Since Xue Ru and the others want to go to Banyan Town, and their goal has been achieved, they will clean you up in the future, so they said: "Shen Hong, take the Snow Fox Brigade to Rongshu, and let Head Zhang arrange it." ”

One of the guards behind him immediately agreed. Xue Ru smiled faintly and said to Liu Yuanshan: "Lead the team away." ”

Although Xue Ru didn't say anything, everyone in the Snow Fox Brigade knew that Miss was not a person to be bullied. Is Tang Shengzhi a big official? Pick him up with a gun the same. is so calm, it must be to clean him up later, not to mention that the troops are tired, and it is on the flat ground outside the city, it is easy to be targeted by Japanese aircraft, so he didn't say anything, but said uprightly: "Yes, the order, Rongshu Town departed." ”

Shen Hong led the way in front, and the Snow Fox Brigade followed to Rongshu Town, from Lu'an to Rongshu is less than ten miles away, in the east of Lu'an, that is, in the middle of Lu'an and Hefei, it is the outer barrier of Lu'an, and the 137th Regiment of the 52nd Brigade is stationed here.

As soon as the troops arrived, Xue Ru somewhat understood why, this is a small town, because it is outside Lu'an City, and it is the only way to Hefei, the town is not small, and the population is also quite large, but the traces of the battle can be seen from the town, which proves that the devils have also attacked here.

Because of the matter of Lu'an, after the Snow Fox Brigade entered the town, it was concentrated in a small square and did not move, Shen Hong went to find Zhang Hu, the head of the regiment stationed here, and Xue Ru and they still waited quietly. After a short time, a voice came over laughing, and the person who came was Zhang Hu, the head of the 137th Regiment, and stretched out his hand from a long distance: "It turned out to be the famous Snow Fox Brigade, long Yang, long Yang." ”

Liu Yuanshan took a step forward and held Zhang Hu's hand: "Head Zhang is polite." ”

Zhang Hu's enthusiasm and He Guoling's indifferent behavior became a stark contrast, which made the people of Snow Fox a little strange. Since people are enthusiastic, Liu Yuanshan eased his face and introduced the people around him to him, looking at Xue Ru in front of him, Zhang Hu didn't know what to do, salute, Xue Ru is not a soldier in civilian clothes, shake hands, people are women, just wanted to hug their fists, Xue Ru stretched out his hand first: "Hello Commander Zhang." ”

Zhang Hu shook Xue Ru's little hand embarrassedly, and quickly let go, this action made Xue Ru want to laugh in his heart, Zhang Hu is not very old, he is only twenty or thirty years old, it seems that he is really a good boy, so he said: "We are coming, and we are causing trouble for Captain Zhang." ”

"Where to say" Zhang Hu said: "The name of the snow fox is like thunder, but I don't know each other, with you here, Lu'an is worry-free, how to say troublesome, please." ”

Xue Ru's heart moved, and it seemed that his judgment was correct, so he said unceremoniously: "Head Zhang, please." Zhang Hu turned around and said to an officer behind him: "Shi Cong, arrange the Snow Fox Brigade to rest first in the Chen Family Ancestral Hall in the east of the town." ”

turned back to Liu Yuanshan and said, "Let's go, go to my regiment headquarters first, and I'll pick you up." ”

In Lu'an, it's like an ice cube, and the enthusiasm here is like fire, and it's really unbearable to be hot and cold. Xue Ru asked as she walked, "Commander Zhang, how did Master Xu arrange it?" ”

Zhang Hu was stunned for a moment: "You haven't seen the division commander?" The division commander just told me that the Snow Fox Brigade was stationed in Rongshu to jointly defend Lu'an, and nothing else was said, are there any other arrangements? ”

Xue Ru could already conclude that all this was probably done by Chief of Staff He, but why didn't he know. smiled and said: "It's nothing, I didn't enter the city, the captain is Liu Yuanshan." ”

Zhang Hu thought that Xue Ru was unhappy because the division commander told Liu Yuanshan that he didn't tell her. Haha smiled: "Who doesn't know that Snow Fox is Captain Xue, come, let's go in and talk." ”

This is Zhang Hu's regimental headquarters, there are no people in it, just a regimental headquarters, maybe the confidential room is not here, only a big map on the wall, Liu Yuanshan They are all men, Zhang Hu is a heroic man at a glance, a happy person, very temperamental, and Dai Zong and the three of them talked, because Lai Changwen, as the chief of staff, wanted to arrange for soldiers to be stationed, so he didn't come over, and went to the Chen family ancestral hall in the east of the town with the troops.

Xue Ru didn't want to do anything, she came to Lu'an for a purpose, staring at the map on the wall, seeing that it clearly marked the formation of enemies around Hefei, the snow fox has been fighting independently, and she can't get complete information, so she doesn't know much about the situation on the entire battlefield, and she was surprised to see the map and said: "Xuzhou is lost." ”

The three of them were talking happily, of course, talking about how the snow fox cleaned up the devil, and when they heard Xue Ru's surprised question, the three of them stopped talking. Zhang Hu said a little angrily: "I also just knew, let the staff officer just mark." The Nationalist army withdrew yesterday, and the Japanese army occupied Xuzhou today and is pursuing it westward. ”

Although Xue Ru had long known that Xuzhou would be lost, when he heard the news, his heart still tingled, so what battle was next? The Japanese army occupied Hefei, and the next thing was the Battle of Wuhan, right? So what role should I play here?

In the Battle of Shanghai, Xue Ru was thinking about how to save those soldiers and how not to retreat. She did it, although it was not perfect, but it also reduced many casualties among the troops, and failed to save the fate of Shanghai. When she was in Nanjing, she was thinking about how to keep it from a massacre, although she later learned that because the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties, Matsui Shigen ordered a large-scale killing, and tens of thousands of people who did not leave Nanjing were also killed. Those are those who believe in the Japanese and are unwilling to leave, they are killing themselves, and they have nothing to do with Xue Ru. But no matter how bad it is, it is also Chinese, so it makes her feel low for several days.

After all, Nanjing is different from history, leaving from Nanjing and crossing the Yangtze River into Chao County, I can't help but say that Xue Ru has lost her goal a little, she doesn't know what she should do, so she has been from Chao County for several months, and she doesn't know what Snow Fox should do.

She wanted to lead the snow fox to participate in the Battle of Xuzhou, although it was difficult to change the outcome of Xuzhou, but she could kill more devils, but for various reasons, she could not get weapons and ammunition, so she could only not participate in the war. Today, it has been several months since the Yangtze River was crossed, but nothing has been accomplished, although there have been a few battles, but the effect is not great, it seems that he should participate in the Battle of Wuhan, this is probably the last large-scale battle with the devils, and then can only carry out guerrilla warfare.

Several people saw that Xue Ru was deep in thought, not knowing what she was thinking, and her voice became quieter. In fact, Xue Ru's mind was in a mess, what she was thinking about was what she should do? What's next? What is the battle of Wuhan like, and where to start? I only have these few hundred people, and now I don't even have 800 people, what can I do?

At this time, Lai Changwen came in and whispered in Xue Ru's ear: "Miss, Sun Zheng knows that we have entered here, he has come back, and he has something to report to you." ”

"Oh?" Xue Ru was stunned for a moment and said, "Okay, let's go back and have a look." "Seeing that Xue Ru is leaving. Zhang Hu said: "I have prepared a meal for wine, you will go back after drinking, and you will have to cooperate in the future." ”
