Chapter 53: Collection (Part 2)

"Yang Huming, you are so damn, what's going on?" Zhao Gengyuan, the third battalion commander on the city wall, asked with a strong Sichuan voice.

"The camp is full of the national army under the city. They are the Zhiheji Security Group who defeated the Guoqi Detachment during the day. Now they have been adapted into the Huben Group by the National Government." Yang Huming quickly explained.

"Ge, they are just Ching and Ji Security Group? Why do you have so many cars? You can't lie to me, right?" Zhao Gengyuan asked with his eyes wide open and stared at Yang Huming.

"Battle, Hu Ming has been born and died with you so many times, you won't even believe me." Seeing that Zhao Gengyuan was still suspicious of him, Yang Huming immediately said, "Let's do this, I'll let their leader talk to you in person."

As he said that, Yang Huming shouted at the bottom of the city: "Captain Qiao, our camp wants to talk to you."

"I heard for a long time that the soldiers of the Sichuan Army swear to leave Sichuan to fight against Japan. In the Battle of Songhu, the 26th Division made great achievements and repeatedly defeated the enemy. Anbang admired him very much. Now our troops are ordered to enter Dangtu. Why did Battalion Commander Zhao turn away?" Qiao Anbang stepped forward and shouted loudly.

"Battle, listen, this is Qiao Anbang, the leader of the security team." Yang Huming pointed at the city and told Zhao Gengyuan.

"Captain Qiao calmed down. As the situation forced Zhao, Zhao had to be extremely careful." Zhao Gengyuan said tepidly.

"The country is in danger and the enemy is in the face. Being cautious is necessary. It is just that caution is not a big mistake." Qiao Anbang nodded and said, "Captain Zhao, can we enter the city now?"

"Yes, but you can only come in alone!" Zhao Gengyuan still said in his tone.

"Damn it, you're so fucking!" Wang Gensheng, the company commander of the guard company, cursed out angrily, and immediately said to Qiao Anbang: "The group of people are ungrateful. Let's beat him up to raise a bitch and fight into the city to see if he can't let him enter the city."

Qiao Anbang immediately shouted, "Nothing! Now that the Japanese invaders are in a strong position, the enemy is in front of us, we are not too late to unite, how can we shoot at our compatriots?"

"But, these Sichuan guys are so ungrateful." Wang Gensheng said with a bitter face.

"Okay." Qiao Anbang raised his hand to stop Wang Gensheng and said, "How can I get a tiger's son if I don't enter the tiger's den? I'll enter the city."

"Group, don't go, safety is the first priority." Wang Gensheng persuaded anxiously.

"Don't worry, as long as they are still Chinese and a group of bloody Chinese, they will not do anything to me." Qiao Anbang waved his hand and then walked towards the city gate.

"Battleman, Commander Qiao is here." Yang Huming pointed outside the city and reminded.

"Yes!" Zhao Gengyuan looked at Qiao Anbang's courage to enter the city alone, and couldn't help but nodded secretly: "I'm a man."

"Let's go, follow me down to meet the leader of this militia." Zhao Gengyuan turned around and left.

"Battery Commander, he is now the commander of the Huben First Regiment, and he is a regular Central Army." Yang Huming hurriedly followed and reminded.

"Ge, I said he is the leader of the militia, the leader of the militia. What a bullshit Central Army, isn't it just a title, and being able to fight the Japanese is a real man."

While the two of them were talking, they had already got off the city tower. The city gate had just opened. Several Sichuan soldiers took torches and brought Qiao Anbang in.

"Sir Qiao, this is our camp." Yang Huming quickly introduced when he saw Qiao Anbang.

Zhao Gengyuan glared at Yang Huming, and Yang Huming immediately shut up and took two steps back.

Seeing this, Qiao Anbang smiled relievedly, and immediately took the initiative to salute, "Capital Commander Zhao, don't be fine."|

Zhao Gengyuan responded casually and said indifferently: "Captain Qiao, why are you not staying here in Ma'anshan at the third update of the night?"

"Battlefield Commander Zhao, the Guoqi Detachment has been severely damaged by our troops. The remaining troops have retreated to the front line of Lishui in a hurry, and it is impossible to recover their combat effectiveness in a short period of time. The 18th Division of the Japanese Army is now attacking Wuhu. Our troops are ordered by the Nanjing Garrison War Zone Command to quickly rush to support Wuhu." Seeing that Zhao Gengyuan was not bored, Qiao Anbang paused and continued: "Battlefield Commander Zhao, Wuhu and Dangtu are dependent on each other, and their lips are dependent on each other, and their teeth are cold, right? Once Wuhu falls, the Japanese army will definitely attack Dangtu. So I want to ask Battalion Commander Zhao to bring your troops to help Wuhu with me."

"Hmph, my son, since our Sichuan army fought the Sichuan War, we traveled thousands of miles to the Songhu front line, and fought with the Oriental Devils for several months. We were exhausted and our weapons and ammunition were consumed. The National Government did not add a single shot and ammunition to us. Why should I go to reinforce Wuhu with you?" Zhao Gengyuan complained in dissatisfaction.

Qiao Anbang felt sad when he heard this. What Zhao Gengyuan said was indeed true. In fact, on the battlefield of anti-Japanese and national salvation, many local troops had the same experience. Take the Northeast Army as an example. Chairman Jiang intended to consume and attack. Many troops were disabled and removed from the front line and had no replenishment at all. They were directly reorganized into other troops.

For example, in the late period of the Battle of Songhu, the 67th Army, which was born in the Northeast Army, hurried to the front line under the leadership of the commander Wu Keren, which happened to be landing in Hangzhou Bay of the 10th Japanese Army. Wu Keren was ordered to defend Songjiang City in the face of danger and led the soldiers of the entire army to fight the Japanese in Songjiang City for several days. Wu Keren himself was also unfortunately sacrificed his life to his country when breaking through.

After the 67th Army, which suffered heavy losses, retreated to the rear, not only did not receive any supplements, but was directly withdrawn, and the remnants were reorganized to the 47th Army.

Of course, this is also the reason why Chairman Jiang was resentful of the Northeast Army's military admonitions during the Xi'an Incident. It should be noted that the predecessor of the 67th Army was the 7th Brigade of the Northeast Army that guarded Beidaying during the September 18th Incident and Zhang Xueliang's ace force.

As for the Sichuan Army, taking Zhao Gengyuan's 26th Division, for example, the division has more than 4,000 people, and insufficient ammunition. However, with the passionate determination to kill the enemy and serve the country, all the division's officers and soldiers fought desperately with the Japanese invaders in the Battle of Shanghai. Their record is one of the few divisions in the Battle of Shanghai, and most of the Central Army is not as good as the 26th Division.

After the Battle of Songhu, the 26th Division suffered heavy losses. Many troops were dispersed during the breakout, but they were not supplemented by soldiers or weapons and ammunition. Originally, Zhao Gengyuan's third battalion had only more than 100 people when he broke through the Songhu battlefield. Now most of the more than 300 people were defeated troops along the way. Among them were the Central Army, Guangxi, and Sichuan. Although the ingredients were mixed, they were all iron-blooded veterans who fought for the rest of their lives.

That's why Qiao Anbang had the idea of ​​incorporating them.

"Battleman Zhao, I know your difficulties. You fought beautifully on the Songhu front line, exerted the military power of Chinese soldiers, exerted the military power of Sichuan Army. The Battle of Songhu alone is enough to show the Chinese people that the Sichuan Army is a patriotic army that can fight tough battles!" Qiao Anbang first praised it and immediately said: "If you are willing to reinforce Wuhu with us, I will immediately distribute 300 American rifles, fifty light and heavy machine guns, and enough ammunition!"

"What? Ge, do you mean this seriously?" Zhao Gengyuan immediately opened his eyes when he heard about the number of weapons and ammunition reported by Qiao Anbang. He had fifty light and heavy machine guns. It turned out that there were not so many of them in the entire 26th Division.

"Of course, Mr. Qiao keeps his word." Qiao Anbang also wanted to say that if you join our Tiger Ben, you won't have to worry about weapons and ammunition in the future. But after thinking about it, it still didn't say that it was really not the time. It would be bad if Zhao Gengyuan thought Qiao Anbang thought he was the Central Army to recruit them.

"Son of the Turtle, if you really give me so much equipment, I will help you and go with you to save Wuhu City. But what if the Japanese suddenly attack?" Zhao Gengyuan was a little worried.

"Captain Zhao, don't be afraid. I left an elite infantry battalion in Ma'anshan. With them here, the Japanese will never step into Dangtu." Qiao Anbang said.

"Oh, then there's no problem." Zhao Gengyuan nodded.

"Campaign." Yang Huming behind Zhao Gengyuan suddenly spoke.

"Your son, what's the matter?" Zhao Gengyuan turned around and asked.

"Battle seat, are there a little less than 300 rifles? Our battalion now has more than a thousand people." Yang Huming looked at Qiao Anbang and told Zhao Gengyuan.

"Oh, by the way." Zhao Gengyuan slapped his forehead and said, "I remember, Commander Qiao, my battalion has just been expanded, and three hundred rifles are not enough."

Qiao Anbang also remembered that Yang Huming had told him that there was another local militia group in Dangtu City. It seemed that he was stupid now. Zhao Gengyuan had been incorporated. After pondering for a while, he had plans in his heart. Qiao Anbang smiled slightly and said, "No problem, you can distribute as much equipment as you have."

"Haha! That's OK." Zhao Gengyuan smiled happily, then turned around and said to Yang Huming: "Go and gather the troops quickly."

"Yes!" Yang Huming responded quickly and turned around and left.
