Chapter 13: Changing Guards (33)

The change of guard of the 48th Army was carried out in an orderly manner, and the invincible small guards would report the situation above the regiment to the wards every day. Luo Wei took the deputy head Ouyang Jin to say goodbye to Ling Qianfeng, the county magistrate of Lujiang County, Ling Qianfeng had a wry smile on his face, he couldn't leave the Ye Bu Tuan behind, he was too disappointed. This month, they first engaged in the sanitation of the East Green Battalion, and the garbage made dozens of carts, some of which were still cultural relics of the former Qing Dynasty, and found a piece of farmland that had not been planted with rice after harvesting winter wheat, and burned the garbage for a day and a night before extinguishing the fire. Next, the field repair regiment began to repair the East Green Camp, whether it was the exterior wall or the interior, the lime mortar was smoothed and smooth, and the old Green Camp suddenly changed its old appearance. The magistrate of Ling County regularly recognized people to send food and military salaries to the Donglu Battalion, and had completely regarded them as the long-term garrison of Lujiang. The military order is like a mountain, and he can't do it, so he has to lead the Lujiang fathers and elders to see off the Ye Bu Regiment, but he is praying in his heart, hoping that the 526 Regiment that will be stationed in Lujiang will be the same as the Ye Bu Regiment, which is a strong army that can fight and win, or a benevolent army that can law and not disturb the people.

Qin Zhenyuan of Taihu Lake, received the order to move the defense, he was excited, he had stayed in Tongcheng before, and knew that the wealth of the Lujiang River was far above Taihu Lake. Yefu Qinglan, Golden Bull Evening View, Green Curtain Fishing Fire, Shuilian Rain, Xiuxi Spring Rise, Huangpi Summer Lotus, Fengtai Autumn Moon, Baishi Winter Snow, Lujiang Eight Scenes, Beautiful. There are poems: Xiuxi spring rises and stacks the peaks wildly, and the autumn moon leads the phoenix in front of the platform. The snow on the top of Baishi Mountain is cold in winter, and the summer lotus is fragrant in Huangpi Lake. The golden bull looks at the horizontal flute at night, and the father Qinglan is dark around the beam. Lying down to listen to the rain in Shuilian, the blue curtain fishing fire is not collected. People have not yet walked out of Jinxi, and their hearts have reached the Golden Bull. An order was given: go.

Qin Zhenyuan walked in a chic way, but he didn't expect to hurt Wu Wannian, the captain of the second brigade of the eleventh tour stationed in Baoyin Temple.

After the Battle of Meicheng, Li Shengzong of the 11th Guerrilla Column moved the headquarters of the column back to Meicheng and Wangjiang County, leaving behind the 2nd Brigade of the 11th Brigade, which followed closely with the 526th Regiment and leaned against the big tree to enjoy the shade. Wu Wannian has been the regiment commander for a few years, but he has learned nothing, but he has learned to eat empty salaries, the original establishment of three battalions, after Tao Shaoping's three battalions were transferred to the 527 regiment as a whole, Wu Wannian did not make up the establishment, but kept Zhang Xicai's first battalion and Gui Chuanpeng's second battalion two battalions not to fill up the personnel. Although there are not many people, life is good, Wu Wannian calls for wind and rain in Wangjiang every day, and plays hide and seek with the Japanese puppet army in Huayang. Huayang as an important town on the Yangtze River, the Japanese Central China Front Headquarters attaches great importance to it, the 119 Brigade put down a Japanese infantry brigade here, and also stationed a Wangjiang garrison regiment headed by the regiment commander Qian Kun. Wu Wannian is like a mouse teasing a cat, and he comes and goes with the Japanese puppet army every day, and has a lot of fun. If the Japanese puppet army doesn't go out, he will provoke it, and when the Japanese puppet army fights out, he will drill into the sphere of influence of the 526 regiment and let Qin Zhenyuan be a thug for him.

Qin Zhenyuan left Taihu Lake without saying a word, and before Wu Wannian could react, the Japanese puppet army in Huayang had already appeared in Baoyin Temple. When the commander of Wu Wannian gave the order to retreat in the direction of Taihu Lake, he sadly found that the Japanese puppet army had blocked the two roads in the east and south, and not only had Qian Kun's complete regiment in front, but also appeared in the rear of the heavily armed Japanese army.

It's blocked! Wu Wannian stopped, his two battalions plus the regimental headquarters were less than a thousand people, how could they be the opponent of a Japanese army brigade and a puppet legion.

"This time it's trouble!" Wu Wannian said to the two regiment commanders.

Gui Chuanpeng also knew that the enemy army was strong, and the best plan at present was to find a way to break through, but Baoyin Temple was the location of the temporary county government, and there were many officials and people.

Wu Wannian also thought of this, and said to Gui Chuanpeng and Zhang Xicai that Baoyin Temple has certain geographical advantages, and the west is a vast mountain, as long as the east and south roads are blocked, the officials and people can take the lead in withdrawing into the mountains.

Gui Chuanpeng blocked the east, Zhang Xicai blocked the south, and fought for an hour, and after an hour, they retreated separately. After issuing this order, Wu Wannian could be regarded as a ruin, because in this way, his regiment would be basically disabled or even wiped out, and once the establishment was canceled, his regimental commander throne would also disappear.

Zhang Xicai is a very brainy officer, and when he saw Gui Chuanpeng walking out of the war room, he whispered to Wu Wannian: "Big brother, can we have a delaying plan?" ”

"How to delay the army?" Wu Wannian had no way to do it, and Zhang Xicai still had a plan, which made him overjoyed.

Seeing that there was no one around, Zhang Xicai leaned close to Wu Wannian's ear, lowered his voice and said: "To the south is Qian Kun's garrison, we can send someone to tell Qian Kun that we plan to surrender and let him send someone to negotiate." ”

"Surrender?" Wu Wannian's face changed: "No." ”

"It's not a real surrender, it's a fake surrender." Zhang Xicai hurriedly explained: "Don't we want to guard for an hour and let the people withdraw first, instead of guarding, it is better to talk, it is also an hour to fight, and it is also an hour to light, and if we have enough time, we will leave, and he Qian Kun can still block us from leaving." ”

"Haha, that's fine!" Wu Wannian was happy, it made sense, patted Zhang Xicai on the shoulder, and asked him to be in charge of this matter.

Gui Chuanpeng didn't have so many tricks as Zhang Xicai, because his opponent was Japanese, and even if he wanted to talk, he couldn't get along, so he could only die. Fortunately, the geographical conditions of Baoyin Temple are good, and the east side is a mountain pass that is not open by a man, and all the machine guns are lined up in the mountain pass, and the Japanese will not be able to attack it for a while and a half. Gui Chuanpeng told his three company commanders that the bullets in the warehouse were enough to fight for an hour, and after this hour, they left. The three company commanders happily accepted the order, knowing that as long as there were enough bullets, it would not be a problem to hold for an hour.

The Japanese infantry brigade stationed in Huayang, Wangjiang, was a pure infantry unit, and its establishment was also in the way of garrisoning troops, because they were mainly responsible for the security of Huayang Port in peacetime, and they would not leave Huayang easily. This time, if it weren't for Qin Zhenyuan's departure, which created such a great opportunity for them, they would not have left their turtle shell. This garrison-based infantry brigade consisted of four infantry squadrons of 180 men plus a brigade headquarters, no machine gun squadrons, no transport and baggage squadrons, and a total number of only 800 men. The armament was also the lowest in the Japanese army, with only 38 rifles, and even grenadiers were equipped with Taisho 10 models with a maximum range of 150 meters. The Japanese also knew their own shortcomings, so they did not intend to play the leading role in this attack, but after Qian Kun's garrison broke through the southern gate of Baoyin Temple, they would be the icing on the cake.

As a result, it backfired, Zhang Xicai of the South Road was fighting with Qian Kunxu and the Snake, but Gui Chuanpeng of the East Road started fighting as soon as they met.

The Japanese army was not easy to bully, and immediately organized and launched a powerful attack on Gui Chuanpeng's position.

Fan Yongjiu, the magistrate of Wangjiang County, had good organizational skills, and took advantage of the time won by Wu Wannian to let the government personnel and the people cooperate to evacuate to the Meijialing Mountain area of Jigong Mountain in the west as soon as possible. In less than an hour, the Baoyin Temple was empty.

Zhang Xicai and Qian Kun were talking happily, thinking that they had a plan, but they didn't expect that while they were calculating Qian Kun, Qian Kun was also calculating them, and before they knew it, Qian Kun had surrounded them. When the hour was up, when Wu Wannian wanted to smear oil on the soles of his feet, Qian Kun said "close the net", and his face, which was still smiling and groaning before, suddenly became like a stone, and before Wu Wannian could take a step, he was pointed at his forehead by Qian Kun's gun. Wu Wannian sighed, he hunted geese all day long, but he was blinded, he couldn't steal chickens, he folded a handful of good rice, he didn't calculate Qian Kun, and he folded himself in, this time it was a real trouble.

The soldiers were not swords, Qian Kun captured the entire camp of Zhang Xicai of Wu Wannian's department alive, and strode into Baoyin Temple with his head held high. Immediately from west to east, flanking Gui Chuanpeng.

When the gunshots came from behind him, Gui Chuanpeng knew that the general trend had gone, and he looked at his watch for an hour and could retreat.

The three company commanders of Gui Chuanpeng's battalion, Li Shaohua, Fang Zhenguo, and Zheng Kaichen, were all habitual bandits in the area of Qingcao Lake and Xiangming Mountain, and their combat level was average and their running level was strong. Gui Chuanpeng, with the assistance of the guards Gui Chunhai and Gui Quancai, rode on his big white horse and ran towards Shamao Mountain with a puff of smoke.

Gui Chuanpeng's white horse is a symbol of the highest peak of his career. It was still during the Meicheng Battle last year, when the Japanese puppet army of Huayang in Wangjiang knew that Qianshan was fighting fiercely, and sent a reconnaissance unit to Shipai to carry out activities, but Gui Chuanpeng captured a Japanese scout alive. Because Gui Chuanpeng was armed with martial arts, after catching the Japanese reconnaissance, he fought with the Japanese army, and he was convinced, and he wanted to worship Gui Chuanpeng as a teacher. Gui Chuanpeng took the prisoners to the headquarters of the 11th Tour and handed them over to the provincial government. This was the first time since the beginning of the war that the armed personnel of the Japanese army were captured alive in the Anqing area, so they were awarded by the Anhui Provincial Guerrilla Command, and the prize was this big white horse presented by Ge Wenbang, a staff officer of the 11th Advance Brigade.

Glory is a big white horse, and hidden dangers are also big white horses. Seeing a big white horse leaving, the Japanese army reacted that this was the commander of the other side and immediately sent someone to chase it up.

The Japanese army has short legs, but they are not slow, and the big white horse does not have an advantage in the thorny field. The guards Gui Chunhai and Gui Quancai let Gui Chuanpeng go first, they led people to block the attack, the quality of the Japanese army should not be underestimated, even the combat ability of the garrison troops was above the soldiers of the eleventh tour, a fierce hand-to-hand encounter, Gui Chunhai sacrificed, Gui Quancai was seriously injured.

Gui Chuanpeng ran to the vicinity of Xiangmao Mountain, the Japanese army chased after him again, Gui Chuanpeng jumped off the horse, slapped on the horse's buttocks, and let the big white horse lead the pursuers away, but he found a house, hid himself in the latrine, and found some firewood and grass to cover it, thinking that he was foolproof.

A tragic scene appeared, the big white horse that ran away from the distance, after a circle in front, came back in circles. Next to the latrine, the big white horse smelled Gui Chuanpeng's breath and neighed around the toilet, but refused to leave. The Japanese army arrived, and from the sight of the big white horse, they found Gui Chuanpeng in the toilet at a glance, and a Japanese soldier rushed over and shouted for Gui Chuanpeng to surrender. Gui Chuanpeng didn't say a word, he took out the gun and the oar was a shot, and the Japanese army was killed on the spot. The rest of the Japanese soldiers did not dare to get close any longer, so they lit a fire with a wooden stick wrapped in wheat straw and threw it over. In the face of the raging fire, Gui Chuan Pengning refused to surrender and was burned alive.

When the news reached Lihuang, Mo Di sighed.

Gui Chuanpeng, the word is all over the world, known as "Gui Lao Xiao", a native of Yingcun Village, Fengtai, Anhui Province, who is righteous and chivalrous, and actually died in the latrine, which makes people feel embarrassed. When Li Pinxian, the provincial chairman, heard this, he wrote a couplet in the Dabie Mountain Daily, Lianyun: Determined to suppress the atmosphere, take righteousness and become benevolent, and the history is sound and colorful; Donate your body to serve the party and the state, one after another, and bury your bones in the yellow sand without burying your name.
