Chapter 9: Behind Enemy Lines (45)

The iron sand of the red-clothed cannon stimulated the Japanese army's anger to the greatest extent, and the left side of the Japanese squadron leader was inlaid with seven grains of iron sand, which was delicately decorated into the Big Dipper pattern, which made Qian Kun look amazing. The red-coated cannon is very old, and after the cannon was released, the cannon body was also blown apart, but fortunately, Zhang Xicai had the foresight and made a two-zhang long lead, which made people dodge like a backward flight, otherwise, the soldiers who ignited the fire would also be blown up to the bones. Seeing the Japanese puppet army on the march in chaos from a distance, Zhang Xicai didn't dare to provoke them anymore, and after watching the chaotic farce of the Japanese puppet army, he left with his own people satisfied. He had to go back to the place where he had laid the ambush, where there were still nearly a hundred corpses of the brothers, and he couldn't let them leave it like that.

Use the tip of the bayonet to pick out the iron sand embedded in the skin, in the wilderness, there was a round of ghosts crying wolf-like screams, Qian Kun curiously approached the side of the captain of the Japanese army Zhongzenggen Shaozuo to take a look, the injuries made by the iron sand are really different, some hit into the flesh, some just broke the skin, and some didn't even break the skin, just pressed into a small pit, after picking out the iron sand, there was only a little burn on the skin. There are military doctors in the team, alcohol and gauze, and this small injury is not difficult to heal. While shouting, the Japanese soldiers scolded and scolded, and their tones were varied, and they all gritted their teeth. Qian Kun couldn't understand Japanese, so he asked the translator to translate, and the translator told him that the Japanese said that being hit by this bullet from the last century could be regarded as blood mold. Qian Kun secretly laughed, the Japanese of dog days are doing nonsense in China, and the ancestors of the Chinese can't stand it! Thinking of this, he walked away, followed the Nanjing government, and was embarrassed by the Japanese, Mr. Wang Jingwei of the Nanjing government was in good shape, if he lost his power, he was afraid that he would die and would not have the face to see the ancestors underground.

What Zhang Xicai didn't expect was that his much-needed ambush was not as good as an old cannon, and the ambush did not stop the pace of the Japanese puppet army's advance, and the iron sand perfectly achieved the expected harassment effect. After the Japanese army finished the wounds, they picked out the iron sand in their bodies one by one, it was already in the afternoon, and it was too late to rush to the road, so they had to return to Xuqiao to stay overnight.

Tao Taiping's department is gone, Zhang Xicai's battalion has more than 100 casualties, and there is only one company left in a full battalion. With a little unhappy mood, I asked the master to draft a telegram and send it to Mo Enemy, half of which was to report merit and half to report worry.

After receiving Wu Wannian's telegram, Mo Di had just arrived in Taihu Lake, washed his face, and had not eaten yet. After walking for about ten hours and driving more than 70 miles, I was a little tired. After reading Wu Wannian's telegram, Mo Di breathed a sigh of relief and said to Jiang Chunyang: "Old Wu has made a great contribution and dragged this group of Japanese puppet troops for a whole day, and the battle that could have started tomorrow has been delayed until the day after tomorrow, and we have a day to prepare." ”

"Yes! When Qin Guo arrived, my heart was settled, as soon as Ouyang Jin arrived, I knew that we had won, boss, you and the thin monkey arrived again, and I didn't have any worries. Jiang Chunyang is exactly what he said, the ease of the body, the invincible is his backbone, with the invincible, there is the Dinghai Divine Needle.

Mo Di smiled, he knew his strengths very well for the guy who walked from Guilin to the anti-Japanese battlefield, he was good at political analysis, as for combat, it was really not his advantage, let him be the deputy commander, it was all about seniority, it was a rising tide, he picked up a cigarette in Jiang Chunyang's cigarette box and smelled it, put it back again, and said: "Old Jiang, do you think this guy will withdraw his troops because of this and not come again?" ”

Jiang Chunyang was asked, he never thought that this group of Japanese puppet troops would retreat, in his opinion, the Japanese puppet army is some masters who do not hit the south wall and do not look back, and even if they hit the south wall, they may not turn back. After thinking about it, he said: "If the other party knows that Taihu Lake is no longer one battalion, but two battalions, as well as Qin Guosheng's guard side and the thin monkey's assault company, I estimate that they will really retreat." I know, I'll go and arrange it immediately, and keep the news of your arrival at Taihu Lake tightly sealed, don't let this group of Japanese puppet troops slip away. ”

Mo Di nodded, and secretly laughed that Lao Jiang is not ignorant of military affairs! smiled and said to Qin Guosheng behind him: "Send a telegram to Hao Wenbo, let him retreat openly and secretly, let Hao Wenbo personally retreat to Shipai with a battalion of partial divisions, and leave a battalion to secretly march into the territory of Taihu Lake to assist in the attack." At the same time, he ordered Wu Wannian's troops to keep tailgating and not let the other party discover their existence. ”

Qian Kun of Xuqiao is also as Mo Enemy expected, hesitating to enter tomorrow or not, the dead have been buried, the wounded have been settled, the Japanese army is one hundred and eighty people, except for seventeen people can no longer march, the others are not major injuries, the puppet army lost a company of casualties, and a battalion of two companies of more than 500 people, from the perspective of comprehensive strength, it is not a big problem to take Taihu Lake, which is guarded by only one battalion. The only variable is the reinforcements from Shipai, although Hao Wenbo's team's combat ability is average, but there are quite a few people, there are more than 600 people, with their joining, the defenders of Taihu Lake have tripled, if you add the remnants of Wu Wannian's flanking attack, I am afraid that my six or seven hundred people attacking Taihu Lake is really a pot of raw rice.

With this worry, Qian Kun came to the barracks of the Japanese army, and the Japanese squadron leader Nakazen Shaozuo was sitting at the table of the Eight Immortals, exposing his upper body, and the purple potion was applied to the left side of his body, which magnified the previous Big Dipper a lot, and he actually had the feeling of an artistic tattoo. Qian Kun said what he meant, Zhongzenggen Shaozuo stood up angrily, and Qian Kun was surprised to find that this half-naked Shaozuo Lord stood up a few points shorter than sitting at the table of the Eight Immortals. I saw that Zhongzenggen Shaozo walked to the wall angrily, pulled out the command knife hanging on the wall, and slashed a few times in the air, screaming more than once.

The translator told Qian Kun that Taijun meant that this revenge would not be avenged, and he should not be a son of man.

Qian Kun nodded, this person was hit by the old cannon today, and he scored seven grains of iron sand, which hurt his self-esteem! Just when he was about to ask Nakazen Shaozo for advice on tomorrow's offensive strategy, he saw a herald walking in with a telegram, Nakazene Shaozo changed his previous attitude, put down the saber in his hand, took the telegram very respectfully, read it carefully, and kept saying "Yo Xi Yo Xi" in his mouth, as if he was receiving a reprimand from the peak in person. From the expression on his face, he could see that he must be anxious and angry in his heart, and he did not dare to show it. Qian Kun didn't understand, and asked the interpreter what he meant, and the interpreter told him that it was the news from the chief of Wangjiang Fujita, and according to the secret report obtained from Shipai, Hao Wenbo's department from Shipai's reinforcement of Taihu Lake received the news that our army had suffered a heavy blow at Xuqiao, and thought that we had no strength at all, and we were no longer the opponent of the Taihu defenders, so we retreated.

Putting down the telegram, Zhong Zenggen was even more excited, his lips trembled, his mustache twitched, and the skeleton of his body seemed to be writhing, screaming loudly. The interpreter told Qian Kun that Taijun was going to attack, and he wanted to attack in an all-round way. Qian Kun thought about it, Shipai's reinforcements were withdrawn, Xuqiao's ambush was defeated, and there was only a national army camp in Taihu Lake left, how could it be his opponent. So he also echoed: "Taijun Gao, this trip to Taihu Lake will be smooth sailing and success." ”

When he returned to his barracks, he saw that his staff officer on duty was already waiting there, telling him that according to reliable information, Wu Wannian's unit, which had been scattered in Xuqiao today, had fled to the east of Qingcao Lake. Qian Kun loosened another stone, he thought that the most difficult time for going to Taihu Lake had passed, and the next thing was that victory was calling. He asked the staff officer on duty to pass the news to the translator, he was really a little reluctant to go to the Japanese barracks again, and it was really not very appetizing to see the Japanese who looked like grasshoppers. The subordinates found a local chicken, stewed it to the heat, and opened a bottle of Anhui wine brought from Wangjiang, it was time to relax.

Qian Kun relaxed, Mo Di did not relax, he also had a quite sumptuous dinner in Wangjiang, a bighead carp weighing eight catties made a fish to eat, fish head soup, steamed fish belly, fried fish tail, the chef steamed fish intestines, fried fish bones, and even made a few very good dishes of yusheng, so that the old people almost didn't bite off their tongues. Even Mo Di sighed: "If Huang Tianhua is here, it will be full of his intentions!" "Huang Tianhua loves Yusheng the most, in fact, people in the entire Xijiang River system love to eat Yusheng, but they Mingzhou people eat Yusheng the most unparticular, they eat any fish, with or without ingredients, they can also mix Yusheng with fish bones when they are fried. Mo Di loves fish head soup and eats a few large bowls. Jiang Chunyang is a native of northern Guangxi, pan-fried fish tail is his dish, and the chef also prepared sour chili peppers, which are slightly simmered with sour chili peppers after frying, with full color, flavor and flavor. Qin Guosheng took care of a few big guys to eat, and at the same time sorted out the opinions and opinions put forward by several big guys unconsciously, Mo Di, Jiang Chunyang, Ouyang Jin, Gao Guixuan, and Thin Monkey The five of them were together, talking and laughing, and occasionally there would be a little flash, Qin Guosheng was a very scheming person, and immediately recorded this flash.

The first shining point this time was actually put forward by the noble election.

When the reinforcements arrived, Gao Guixuan was relaxed, the wine was over three rounds, and the dishes were five flavors, and Gao Guixuan said to Mo Di: "Tuanzao, I have an idea, I'll talk about it casually." ”

Seeing Mo Di's encouraging gaze, Gao Guixuan said: "We can continue to create the illusion that there is only one battalion in Taihu Lake, and fight with them, and then, Ouyang leads a battalion to kill from behind, which will definitely disrupt their position, and as soon as they retreat, they will give Chief of Staff Hou a chance." After Chief of Staff Hou took a bite, he gave Hao Wenbo another bite to eat, and finally let Wu Wannian take another bite, and it is estimated that there will be no more people left when Qian Kun returns to Wangjiang! ”

Mo Di looked at the noble election a little puzzled, and asked, "Don't you want to destroy Qian Kun in Taihu Lake this time?" ”

Gao Guixuan shook his head and said: "If you kill Qian Kun, there will naturally be another Zhang Kun and Li Kun, and play with the newcomer, it is better to keep this old one, the old routine is familiar, or the defeated general, it is easy to deal with, if you really want to change to a new person, I don't know what role it will be." It's not that I'm afraid to do it with him, it's that I can't do it. ”

Mo Enemy laughed, the person in front of him, from looking down on his own combat style when he first came, to now he has fully adapted and can carry forward the great progress, without thinking agreed to the proposal of the noble choice, and said: "Very good, very good, just keep Qian Kun and let him give us an honest stay in Wangjiang City." ”

Jiang Chunyang asked puzzledly: Give us guard? That's not right, right! Qin Guosheng said in his ear: He doesn't want to go anywhere except Wangjiang City, this is to draw the land into a prison.

Draw the ground into a prison! That's what it means.
