Chapter 155: A pre-war meeting where all the stars gathered
Zhou Weihan's independent detachment was the last team to enter southern Hebei, and other brother troops had already assembled and were on standby.
At noon on July 3, Zhou Weihan set off from Feixiang with his reconnaissance company and arrived at the boundary of Guangzong in the afternoon.
"Hey!" Zhou Weihan pulled the reins and shouted: "Everyone has a rest, and let the horses take a breath. This will save Zhu Dashan's heartache!"
The people accompanying them all rode war horses borrowed from the cavalry company. If Zhou Weihan hadn't asked, the others would not have been able to borrow war horses from Zhu Dashan.
In the plains of southern Hebei, people galloped wildly all the way. It was so joyful.
Zhou Weihan pulled a handful of hay from the roadside into the horse's mouth. Unexpectedly, the horse snorted and spat out the hay.
"Quite squeamish!" Zhou Weihan said, patting the horse's head.
"Commander, the horses of this cavalry company eat better than people. They usually eat black beans and soybeans, and they have to be mixed with eggs and salt. Who are you talking about?" said a soldier from the reconnaissance company.
"Pop!" Gunshots were heard not far away.
"Dong Jiang, take people to see what's going on?" Zhou Weihan said.
Not long after, Dong Jiang brought it back.
"Commander, it looks like the National Army's grain harvesting team, numbering thirty or forty people, is searching from house to house!" Dong Jianghui reported.
Zhou Weihan was just thinking about whether to deal with them easily, when suddenly there was another burst of gunfire.
"Things that don't have eyes will harm their own people. Leave a few people to watch the horses and the radio, and let the others go and kill them!" Zhou Weihan waved his hand and shouted angrily.
This group of stubborn soldiers were obviously very experienced in doing this. First, they gathered the villagers in the threshing floor and borrowed grain seriously. If the people cooperated, it would be easy, but if they didn't, they would have to resort to tricks.
This group of stubborn soldiers is the independent Fourth Brigade stationed in Wei County. The troops are about to retreat, and the leading platoon leader is thinking about how to get something before leaving.
The common people in Wei County were all transferred away by the Eighth Route Army in advance, so they simply took their men and ran to Guangping in the west.
"Don't fucking cry. I've pinned my head to my waistband. I'm asking you for some food. I don't have to worry about food. I don't mind the ocean and jewelry." The stubborn platoon leader said and gave it to his men.
A look.
The men immediately understood and rushed into the crowd with their men.
At this time, the reconnaissance company had already reached outside the threshing floor. This group of stubborn soldiers was used to being domineering and did not even set up a warning post.
"Who will kill this stubborn army leader?" Zhou Weihan said.
At this time, several people were lying on the roof of a villager's house outside the threshing floor. After hearing Zhou Weihan's words, Thief Jiu stretched out his thumb and visually measured the distance.
"Commander, the distance is a bit far, probably about six hundred meters, but it's not a big problem." Thief Nine patted the sniper rifle in his hand and said.
With a "pop" gunshot, the stubborn platoon leader fell down, and the rest of the stubborn troops were in chaos.
The soldiers of the reconnaissance company took the opportunity to rush forward, "Be honest as fuck, the guys in my hands don't recognize people!" A soldier holding a flower trap shouted angrily.
The more than thirty stubborn soldiers had no fighting spirit at this time and put down their weapons one after another.
"Go and ask if any of the villagers are injured!" Zhou Weihan said.
"Sir, we are the national army, and we are also fighting the Japanese!"
"Huh, look at what you are doing, you can bully the common people, but you are worthy of being called the National Army? Which department are you in?" Zhou Weihan said with a cold snort.
"Sir, we are from the 4th Independent Brigade of the 69th Army!"
"Isn't the Fourth Independent Brigade in Wei County? The war is about to begin, why did you come to Guangping?" Zhou Weihan asked half-jokingly
"Sir, you are joking. How dare we fight with the Eighth Route Army! When we were informed by the top of the mountain that we were about to retreat, the platoon leader came out to grab a handful before he took us away!"
"Retreat? When? Did you say where to withdraw?" Zhou Weihan asked with a frown.
"Sir, it's not that I didn't tell you, I'm just a soldier. How could I know this in detail?"
At this time, Dong Jiang came over and reported: "Someone among them raped a woman!"
After hearing this, Zhou Weihan became angry immediately and took out his shell gun: "Find it for me!"
Dong Jiang pointed at two people in the crowd, waved his hand, and soldiers from the reconnaissance company swarmed forward and escorted the two people out.
"Before you do anything, don't forget that you are Chinese and don't forget the military uniform you are wearing! I don't ask you to go into battle to kill the Japanese, but at least don't harm your own people!" Zhou Weihan shouted angrily.
"Bang bang bang bang" The two men were lying on the ground with two bloody holes in their chests.
When other people saw this, they were horrified, and they all knelt down and begged for mercy: "Sir, have mercy on me!"
"Commander, what should we do with these people?" Dong Jiang asked.
Zhou Weihan thought for a moment: "Remember what we just said, never forget that you are a Chinese, get out of here!"
...
Julu Qianwei Village, the temporary headquarters of the Eighth Route Army's anti-recalcitrant campaign in southern Hebei Province.
When Zhou Weihan arrived, the headquarters was full of people.
"Zhou Weihan, you're too late!" said Chen Zaidao, commander of the Eastward Column sitting at the top on the left.
"Commander Chen, we encountered a group of stubborn troops on the road and were delayed." Zhou Weihan explained.
Chen Zaidao was originally the deputy brigade commander of the 386th Brigade. Zhou Weihan had met him several times at the brigade headquarters before, and the two were quite familiar with each other.
Zhou Weihan looked around at the people in the headquarters. If the people here didn't sacrifice, they would all be at least two stars in 55 years.
"Commander Song, Commander Chen, and Political Commissar Cheng met a group of stubborn troops from the Fourth Independent Brigade stationed in Wei County on their way here. According to them, Shi Yousan has issued an order to retreat!" Zhou Weihan reported the intelligence obtained.
.
"We have been informed of this matter in advance. Shi Yousan announced the evacuation on the 11th, but it was actually the 9th, which gave us a sloppy look." Commander Song of the Southern Hebei Military Region said with a smile.
Zhou Weihan was stunned, but then he thought about it, and it was right. According to the intelligence work of the Eighth Route Army, how could he not know the movements of the Third Division of Friends?
"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's have a meeting!"
"Comrades, Shi Yousan is everywhere in southern Hebei, seizing soldiers and asking for guns, expropriating food and money, attacking small units of our army that are dispersed, destroying the anti-Japanese democratic regime, killing anti-Japanese military and political personnel and their families, and dismantling certain new forces that have been incorporated by our army.
troops, colluded with the Japanese army, and openly cooperated with the Japanese army in their raids.
The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China sent a call to the headquarters and the 129th Division on the 3rd. The chairman pointed out: The policy adopted to win over Shiyou's Third Division is no longer applicable, and they should be resolutely and completely eliminated when they attack our division.
The first battle against the stubbornness in southern Hebei will be fought by us."
After hearing this, the morale of everyone present was greatly shaken. Except for Zhou Weihan, the brother troops in Jizhong, Jinnan, and Jilunyu, none of them had been attacked and provoked by the stubborn troops.
"I've had enough of these frustrating days. I finally got over it, and I don't have to suffer from the dog's anger anymore!" One of the people present threw his hat on the table and said.
