Chapter 6: Fighting (21)

The first thing Xu Ping did when he received the telegram from Mo Di was to clean up all his trucks, and when he withdrew from Centipede Mountain, the defenders of Chuzhou rushed to deliver four trucks, and this time they got sixteen cars from the Japanese troops going north from Hefei, two of which were transported to Wuhan by Wang Zhanbin, and eighteen of them. To Xu Ping's satisfaction, four of them were armored vehicles with thick iron plates around them, with shooting holes open around them, like four moving fortresses. He asked Huang Guilin's engineer team, the vole's special team and Liu Qinglong's main company to change into Japanese-style clothes, and hung the banner of the Sakamoto detachment's advance team, which had been overturned a few days ago, on the front of the car and set off for Bengbu.

There were two less tanks, two more cars, and the Type 92 heavy machine gun was mounted on the head of the car, and the armoured car's firing hole had a dark blue muzzle, which was a crutch. Isshiki's Japanese-style equipment is very similar to the Japanese a few days ago, except that there is less mustache sitting under the nose, but the total amount of beard has not decreased because of this, and Liu Qinglong's face has more hair than the beard of the small Japanese team. Liu Qinglong has a beard, a Japanese-style steel helmet on his head, and a Japanese army windbreaker wrapped around his body, which is the uniform of the national army. Under his feet is a pair of black leather boots, with an inaccessible command knife hanging on the left, a bulging Wang Ba box on the right side, and a cowhide belt tied around his waist. Liu Qinglong sat in the co-pilot seat of the first car, raising the murderous aura of the entire team by several levels.

The vole drove the second car himself, and Xu Ping sat in the passenger seat.

"I don't know where Boss Mo is?" The vole asked.

"We drove, they walked, Jin Tongxuan said, from Guzhen to Bengbu is more than 40 kilometers, and there is a transition, they will be much slower." Xu Ping said: "Jin Tongxuan contacted the boss and asked them to walk along the railway, until they reached the head of the iron bridge that was blown up, and then turned upstream, not far from the upstream of the iron bridge, there is a Songjiadu wharf, we must occupy this ferry port first, and take them across the river." ”

"Does Jin Tongxuan know how to get to this pier?" The vole asked, "Do you want us to go in and have a look?" ”

Jin Tongxuan said that he knew that this was a civilian wharf, and when the Japanese did not come, it was very depressed here, and in order to block the Japanese attack, the iron bridge was blown up, and it was also lively here. The Japanese army did not use this wharf, and downstream of the iron bridge, there was a larger air boat wharf, called Minsheng Wharf, which has now become a special wharf for the Japanese army. After the Japanese army went north, there were not many people left behind in Bengbu, and they usually stayed at the Fuli Institute and the material warehouse, and the materials were also transferred through the Minsheng Wharf downstream, and they couldn't take care of it upstream. According to the news, the Songjiadu Wharf is currently controlled by some local ruffians, who do not know, my plan is to kill these people first. ”

"Why do you want to kill, just let them let them go." Said the vole.

Xu Ping smiled, and said in a somewhat disdainful tone: "Reasoning with these ruffians, and you will get a second Huang Xinnong county magistrate of Chuzhou, it is better to kill people as soon as you do it, and then kill them." I think that anyone who can live under the iron heel of the Japanese can die, and it is not wrong to kill them. ”

The vole smiled happily, Gong Qingyuan and Jin Tongxuan Huang Guilin both love to be reasonable, and they were ridiculed by the vole Liu Qinglong and Liang Yisheng as reasonable bandits. Xu Ping was able to do this, but he also saw the status quo, and sometimes, he shot when it was time to act.

The convoy drove for almost two hours before arriving at Qinji, southwest of Bengbu. A large group of devils suddenly came, which scared the local people a lot, and a small ruffian ran over to ask Taijun what he could do, but he didn't expect that Taijun who asked would speak a Sichuan accent, which made the little ruffian's chin almost hit the surface of his feet.

"I know, I know, the Song family ferry, I'll take Taijun there." The little ruffian jumped up, jumped on the pedal on the driver's side, grabbed the car door hard, and looked smug at the people on the street.

"You said this, should you kill it?" Xu Ping asked.

"He's here for us." The vole said, "Don't kill it." ”

"Wrong! He was the one who was most active in helping the Japanese. Xu Ping said: "If you want to kill, the first one is him." ”

The vole felt a pang in his heart, and the steering wheel in his hand almost hit the ditch, boss, ruthless enough.

"Taijun, what is the reason for this Song family ferry?" The small ruffian set is almost.

"Military operations, don't ask around, be careful of losing your head." Liu Qinglong said.

"No, no, I'm not asking around, I want to say that the imperial army is a big ferry downstream, and the small ferry upstream is usually not used by the common people, if Taijun wants to take over the Song family ferry, the villain wants to ask Taijun for an errand at the ferry, and the little one has no other skills, running errands and helping the lazy, which is very suitable." The little ruffian has sharp teeth and speaks very well.

"Sooner or later, the ferry will have to be retracted, and if you have the heart, it is not impossible to be a steward at the ferry." Liu Qinglong smiled: "It depends on whether you can do it." ”

The little ruffian slapped his chest with his left hand and said loudly: "Taijun has something to say, and the villain must do his best to do it." ”

"Then tell me, who is in charge of the current Song Jiadu?" Liu Qinglong asked.

"It's Song Erhu, the ferry belongs to their family, and they just collect the transition fee every day, and they get cramps." The little ruffian said: "It's just that this guy is a little stubborn, he doesn't like to listen to Taijun's words, and several times Taijun wants to transition, he actually parked the boat on the north shore and didn't drive over even if he died." ”

Liu Qinglong smiled, this Song Erhu is a virtuous person.

It was only twenty miles from Qinji to Songjiadu, and after chatting for a while, the car had not yet stopped, and I saw the little ruffian jumping out of the car and running towards an adult man in his thirties not far away, and shouted loudly: "The second is in charge, the second is in charge." ”

The man is not short, with a tiger's back and a wolf's waist, a leopard's head and eyes, and only a beard, otherwise, he will look like Zhang Fei. glanced at the little ruffian, didn't answer him, turned around and walked towards the river, the little ruffian hurriedly grabbed the man's arm, sat on the ground, turned around and shouted: "Taijun, Taijun, he is Song Erhu." ”

Liu Qinglong jumped out of the car, rushed to Song Erhu's side in three steps and two steps, glanced at Xiao Di and said, "What does this look like, go back to the car and stay." ”

Song Erhu glanced at Liu Qinglong in surprise, this devil's Chinese language is quite smooth, not the kind of Japanese Chinese of your and my family.

Watching the little ruffian walk away, Liu Qinglong said, "Please take a step to speak." ”

The two walked side by side to the dock.

"I heard that Song is a backbone Chinese, so I won't beat around the bush." Liu Qinglong said: "We occupied this wharf just to meet the 526th Brigade of the 176th Division of the 48th Army of the National Army returning from Guzhen, do you understand? ”

Song Erhu first froze for a moment, and then a smile spread from his face, and he wanted to scream.

"Don't call, we are now changing the Japanese army, you are forced by us, you have to be obedient, on the surface, you still treat us as Japanese devils, we don't know when the troops in Jiangbei will arrive, we have to delay as much time as possible. Do you understand? Liu Qinglong said.

"Understood, understood!" Song Erhu replied, and the expression on his face also returned to his previous death image.

The Holiday Army on the eighteen cars jumped out of the car and occupied all the important positions on the dock in the first time, and the cars were parked on one side, and the Type 92 heavy machine guns on the cars were shot in their throats.

Song Erhu personally came to the mouth of the ferry boat by the river and shouted: "Don't crowd everyone, the Japanese army will not harass everyone, speak quietly, be quick under your feet, and make a quick transition." ”

There were a few sacks piled up on the wharf, the new paint on the two crutches was shining, and the common people under the guns became very well-behaved, not daring to make loud noises, not daring to talk to each other, and not even daring to cut into the queue and crowd indiscriminately.

Xu Ping took the confidential personnel with the walkie-talkie and the telegraph to settle down in a small tea shop by the dock, and the vole gave the tea shop owner two pieces of Guangyang, telling him that it was not open to the public today, just get more good tea. The boss took the two pieces of Guangyang, couldn't help but be happy, and hurriedly took out a board from behind the door and hung it outside the door, which said, The owner is happy, patronize another day.

Turn on the walkie-talkie and start calling: "Tongmuling Tongmuling, I'm Tongmujiang......"

The telegraph machine was not idle, and only one sentence was sent back and forth: Tongmujiang called Tongmuling.

It didn't take long to receive a reply from Mo Di, and they arrived at a place called Cao Laoji, which was estimated to be fifteen kilometers away from the Bengbu Iron Bridge.

Liu Qinglong asked Song Erhu if there was a highway to Cao Laoji, and he wanted to drive to pick it up, and eighteen cars could pick up almost a thousand people at a time. Song Erhu shook his head and said that if there is a railway, there will be no road. Knowing that there were more than 1,000 national troops coming down from the north, Song Erhu was very frightened, and when he knew that there were not only 1,000 people, but more than 2,000 and almost 3,000, his eyes were green. Very enthusiastically took Liu Qinglong to the small house by the wharf ferry, Song Erhu told his subordinates, row out, collect all the fish on the upper and lower river beaches, and then go to get twenty pigs back, and make a banquet today, one table for eight people, four hundred tables.

In the mouth of Song Erhu, Liu Qinglong learned that the reason why the Banjing detachment in Hefei pulled out people to Bengbu was because the entire Bengbu was already an empty city, and the war began here at the beginning of the year, one for two months, and then the national army for a while, the Japanese army for a while, you sang and appeared, and the people were completely at a loss, the thirteenth division came and went, the ninth division came and went, and a third division came a few days ago, thinking that this time it was estimated to be sitting in the village, but I didn't expect to stay for a few days and left, leaving less than 300 Japanese troops to set up a military management department in Bengbu, but also to manage a huge warehouse of supplies. Every day, the Japanese army was busy, and they were exhausted to death just in the area of the Bengbu Railway Station, where the material warehouse was located, so in other areas of Bengbu, the Japanese army was basically not seen, and the city security was still in charge of the previous police, and the mayor was also an old official who worked in the city government before, and it seemed that everything was business as usual. So seeing Liu Qinglong and his gang made Song Erhu take aback, since it was a reinforcement from Hefei, he didn't go to the big warehouse at the railway station, what was there to come to this small wharf. Speaking of the changes in the Japanese army, Song Erhu said: Yesterday, a train came from Chuzhou, unloading a large amount of materials at the south end of the railway bridge.

Liu Qinglong asked Song Erhu not to break the bank, so many people, it would be good to have a place to eat, how could four hundred tables be set up at once. Song Erhu said that he didn't have to worry about this matter, the people on the boat did things, and there were often four hundred tables and five hundred tables, and there were places with equipment and manpower, it was not difficult, and it didn't take an hour to start eating. Just when Liu Qinglong was very moved to thank him, Song Erhu said a word: Tonight, their Huaihe Gang wants to use the name of the army coming down from the north to rob the Japanese army's warehouse in Bengbu, I don't know if it will work? Liu Qinglong laughed, this idea is good, we will not only use the name for you, but also get it with you. Song Erhu was happy, he was jealous that the materials in the Bengbu warehouse were no longer a day or two, and this time, he could finally get his wish.

Just when everything returned to calm at Songjiadu Wharf, a large number of soldiers appeared at Jiangbei Wharf, led by Liu Bolong, the commander of the first battalion. Song Erhu asked all the ships to gather in Jiangbei, and a boatload was transported to the south. Liu Bolong saw Liu Qinglong who was facing there, and the two brothers hugged each other and jumped up and down. The people on the dock were confused when they saw the intimacy between the national army and the Japanese army, and the second monk was confused.

Xu Ping stood on the south bank of the Huai River, greeting every soldier he knew, and he didn't see him for a few days, and his feelings of concern were overflowing.
