Liujiawa was not far from Liujiazhuang. Li Yunlong and others accelerated their pace and arrived at the west entrance of Liujiawa Village in less than five minutes.
There was a squad of troops deployed at the west entrance of the village, including a light machine gun, and a dozen escaped prisoners were in a stalemate with them.
"Brothers, don't be afraid. They don't dare to shoot. If we break through the defense line, we will be safe!" Each of the four leaders held a rifle, and the other three each held a grenade.
Although a battalion of soldiers blocking the entrance to the village had light machine guns to assist them, they dared not fire as they saw the prisoners approaching step by step.
"Damn it, a group of prisoners are rebelling!" As he spoke, Li Yunlong rushed over, grabbed the light machine gun from the soldier's hand, and shouted: "Get the hell back!"
More than a dozen prisoners paused and glanced at each other, but did not retreat.
Li Yunlong looked at the weapons in the hands of the four leaders, and his anger went straight to his forehead. His anger defeated his reason.
Pull the bolt, pull the trigger, and the light machine gun roars angrily "Click, click, click!"
The four leaders were knocked down immediately, with incredible expressions on their faces.
"I say it again, you all should go back to your own houses, otherwise the gun in my hand will not recognize anyone!"
As soon as Li Yunlong finished speaking, the remaining prisoners dispersed and ran towards the village.
"Now is not the time to be merciful. Our Eighth Route Army treats prisoners preferentially, but we cannot be fools. The prisoners have all snatched weapons and started rioting. Now, if we are merciful, do you still want to survive?
Remember, anyone who wants to attack the checkpoint will be shot and driven back by me, do you understand?"
"Understood!" A squad of soldiers shouted in unison.
When Li Yunlong arrived, the soldiers instantly had a backbone, and their restless hearts were suppressed.
At this time, groups of torches were moving rapidly in the village, and the first battalion dispatched all its troops to suppress the fire. Machine guns rang out from time to time around the village. It was obvious that someone had slipped through the net and was attacking the checkpoint.
...
West Garden, Independent Detachment Headquarters.
At the beginning of the riot, a group of soldiers stationed at the west entrance of Xihuayuan Town noticed something unusual in Liujiawa and hurriedly reported it to the police.
"Commander, there are gunshots and explosions coming from the direction of Liujiawa!"
After Zhou Weihan heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily, thinking that something bad had happened, he shouted: "Monk, let the cavalry battalion assemble!"
"Chief of Staff, you stay in the West Garden and keep the entire regiment on guard, especially the munitions warehouse.
Dong Jiang, your reconnaissance company will surround the building for me and watch Zhu Huaibing and Cai Shaoren to death!"
"Commander, do you want to report this matter to your superiors first?" Xing Zhiguo asked hesitantly.
"No need for the moment, the chaos over Liujiawa has not been clarified yet. When I notify you, I will also notify the regiments stationed outside to strengthen their vigilance, especially the Wang Yigong Fourth Regiment stationed in Qijialing, to guard against the enemy's counterattack!"
"yes!"
"Commander, the cavalry battalion has been assembled!" Monk Hui reported.
In the compound of the headquarters, in just two minutes, the cavalry battalion accompanying the headquarters was assembled immediately.
"They gathered quickly enough!" Zhou Weihan said in surprise.
"Hey, Commander, our cavalry battalion never takes off its clothes during war and sleeps with the war horses!" Zhu Dashan said with a smile, and at the same time brought a war horse to Zhou Weihan
Zhou Weihan got on his horse, clamped the horse's belly, and said: "In the direction of Liujiawa, let's go!"
The soldiers of the cavalry battalion responded in unison, and the horseshoes stepped on the cement pavement of the West Garden, which sounded like thunder throughout the West Garden, and everyone galloped westward.
After Zhou Weihan left, orders were passed down from the command post one by one, and the independent detachment started operating quickly like a precise instrument.
Direction to Qijialing.
"There's something going on at the rear. The command headquarters has judged that the prisoners in Liujiawa rioted. Let's step up our vigilance!" Wang Yigong's face turned pale and he slapped the telegram on the table.
"Did a small group of enemy troops slip past our Qijialing side? That shouldn't be the case. There are comrades from the independent guerrilla detachment on the south bank of the Zhanghe River, and our regiment is on the north bank, a double line of defense!" Gao Zhiheng said doubtfully.
"The matter has not yet been decided. We order each battalion to conduct self-inspection to see if there are fewer people in each company or platoon. At the same time, we will send small groups of troops to search around to detect any traces of enemy troops passing through. If there is any situation, report it immediately!"
Wang Yigong ordered.
The late-night actions of Wang Yigong's Fourth Regiment attracted great attention from the independent guerrilla detachment on the south bank of the Zhang River and the Lu Zhonglin Division.
Especially Lu Zhonglin's department thought that the Eighth Route Army was taking advantage of the negotiation period to try to get involved in the south bank of the Zhang River.
The cavalry battalion led by Zhou Weihan arrived one step earlier than the fourth battalion led by Luo Benzhong.
As soon as they arrived at Liujiawa, Zhou Weihan said to Zhu Dashan: "Send a team of troops to patrol outside Liujiawa Village. If you encounter a fish that slips through the net and escapes, cut it down for me!"
Zhou Weihan knew that once this happened, the national army would definitely launch an attack. If yellow mud fell into his crotch, it would be a big deal, so he simply asked the soldiers not to hold back and put down the riot as soon as possible.
"Yes! Third company commander, your troops will stay!" Zhu Dashan ordered.
Immediately, the team was divided into two, and the soldiers of the third company of the cavalry battalion were roaming around the village.
...
"I am Zhou Weihan of the independent detachment. Who is currently in command in the village?" Zhou Weihan asked the new group of soldiers at the east entrance of the village.
"Report to Commander Zhou, our regiment leader Li Yunlong is in command in the village!"
"Zhu Dashan, spread out the soldiers, use platoons as units, and cooperate with the soldiers of the new regiment to suppress the riot. Remember, the prisoners in the village should not do anything if they can!" After Zhou Weihan finished speaking, he personally led a platoon of cavalry.
He rushed towards the direction where the gunfire was the loudest in the village.
The northwest corner of Liujiawa.
A group of prisoners occupied this courtyard and were exchanging fire with a new regiment of soldiers.
The leader was Li Weiye and others. Seeing that the riot was intensifying, Li Weiye and others planned to take advantage of this opportunity to flee to the north. However, they were blocked by Li Yunlong and others, and the two sides reached a stalemate at that time.
"Tuanzuo, what should we do? We can't get out!" Seeing that the riot in the village gradually subsided with the arrival of reinforcements from the Eighth Route Army, Li Laosan suddenly became anxious.
"Damn, I'm really unlucky, but don't be afraid, we have two Eighth Route Army soldiers in our hands, at least we have bargaining chips!" Li Weiye no longer looked like he had the wisdom before, pretending to be calm and comforting
Brothers around you.
"People inside, listen, I am giving you three minutes to consider, release our soldiers, and treat you leniently!" Li Yunlong was so angry that his teeth were itching, but at this time, he could only hold his nose and shout.
"Fuck you, you really think I am a three-year-old child. We are the ones who killed you and tied up two soldiers. Can you let us go!" Li Weiye shouted.
"Bang!" A gunshot sounded. A sharpshooter from the New Regiment heard the sound and identified his position in the dark, and fired a shot in the direction of Li Weiye.
However, Li Weiye was a very good thief, and his head was not missed at all, and the bullet hit the stone block of the wall.
"Is this your sincerity?"
"Commander, Commander Zhou of the independent detachment is here!" a soldier reported.
Zhou Weihan had already noticed the situation here and walked quickly towards Li Yunlong: "Old Li, what's the situation now?"
"Two soldiers were kidnapped by the rioting prisoners!" Li Yunlong said with a solemn face.
"storm!"
"Strong attack? Our new regiment has never left a single brother behind since the day it was established. You, Zhou Weihan, really stand up and talk without hurting your back. Emotions are not the soldiers under your command!" Li Yunlong said with a smile on his neck.
Li Yunlong is a very contradictory person, but it is also unique to the revolutionary martyrs of this era. He would rather give up his relatives than sacrifice his comrades.
"Strike!" Zhou Weihan waved his hand. The monks and the soldiers from the cavalry platoon had been observing for a while and then attacked from three sides.
"Boom!" An explosion sounded. Li Weiye took the opportunity to escape over the wall, but was captured alive by a new group of soldiers outside.
Three enemy prisoners were brought over, and the rest were carried out.
Li Yunlong quickly stepped forward and rushed towards the two soldiers of the first battalion who were being carried. When the monk led the men to rush in, the enemy decisively fired the grenades on the two men.
Both soldiers' backs were blown apart: "Captain, I have embarrassed our new regiment!"
"Brother, my good brother!" Li Yunlong, a tough-minded man, couldn't help crying.
"Damn it, I've never been so angry. I'm going to kill you bastards!" Li Yunlong said, raising the shell gun in his hand.
"Bah, bang, bang!" Three shots from Li Weiye fell to the ground one after another.
"Li Yunlong, what are you doing? Aren't you giving someone a leg up?" Zhou Weihan said angrily.
"Old Li!" Luo Benzhong heard the sound and came over.
"I, Li Yunlong, am just a bastard. I don't have the bells and whistles of you literati. It is only natural that I kill people to pay my debts and pay my debts!"
Zhou Weihan also wanted to kill the instigator with a thousand knives, but could he finally figure out what was going on? It was as if he was killing people and silencing them. The national army was already looking for excuses, so Li Yunlong could just send him to his doorstep.
"Comrade Ben Zhong, I will ask the chief of staff to come over later, and you two will be responsible for investigating this matter!"
After Zhou Weihan finished speaking, he was about to take Li Yunlong away. A new group of soldiers surrounded him without saying a word, while hundreds of pairs of eyes stared at Zhou Weihan.
When Li Yunlong saw this, he smiled and said: "Go and do whatever you are supposed to do. Don't bother me here. People who don't know think they are gathering around to mourn me!"
Now that I’m gone, I’ll listen to the political commissar on everything!”
Li Yunlong turned to look at Zhou Weihan and said: "Old Zhou, my brain got hot and I got into trouble again. However, I am responsible for my own work. If my superiors want to pursue it, I will take care of this matter by myself!"
"Fuck you, don't worry, we'll handle it together if anything happens!" Zhou Weihan gave Li Yunlong a hard fist.
The two smiled casually and walked out of the crowd hand in hand.
