Isamu Terauchi answered the phone with an eager face, and his words were very enthusiastic. Although Isamu Terauchi is getting bigger and bigger, and his business is getting wider and wider, he has never forgotten that Zhou Weihan is his leader.
Looking back at the beginning, Isamu Terauchi was just the Japanese commander of the 104th Brigade in Wuyi. In terms of security in the defense area, the northern part of Wuyi is a mountainous area where the Eighth Route Army activities gather. The security is far inferior to that of Wu'an in the south. In terms of achievements, Isamu Terauchi is even more outstanding.
A collapsed lake.
In the process of chasing the New Second Regiment, because of a series of ridiculous stories caused by the marching pot, the then immediate boss Yamashita Fengwu was even more disdainful of Terauchi Isamu, punching and kicking him at every turn.
Unexpectedly, during the large-scale sweep of the entire division, the division commander Yamashita Fengwu was unfortunately hit by a cannonball, and then died under the personal care of Isamu Terauchi.
From then on, Isamu Terauchi seemed to have changed his fate against the odds. He first met Zhou Weihan, and the two teamed up to kill his rival Wataru Takeuchi stationed in Wu'an. Then he sold Nobuchi Sakata, and later he was promoted to the position of commander of the 104th Brigade.
Now the division commander of the 41st Division.
Thinking about all these things, Terauchi Yong couldn't help but feel that Zhou Weihan was his lucky star. Without Zhou Weihan's help, how could he, Terauchi Yong, be where he is now.
"Mr. Zhou, with the friendship between you and me, such trivial matters will naturally not be a problem!" After hearing this, Temple Yong did not hesitate much, and then said: "There are military columns heading north every day, but if you need to arrive directly
Jinmen, there will be a military column passing Handan in three days, Mr. Zhou, if you are not in a hurry, I suggest you wait, this can save a lot of trouble!"
"Okay, it's settled. Dong Jiang will personally lead people to Handan by then!" Zhou Weihan thought for a while and felt that there was no need to be too anxious. After agreeing, he hung up the phone.
"Old Zhou, is Yong Temple agreeing? It's so happy!" Zhao Gang, who witnessed the whole conversation, said suspiciously. You know, in the phone call just now, Zhou Weihan not only proposed to take a military train to go north to Tianjin, but also mentioned
They came out to disguise themselves as Japanese troops from the 41st Division.
"I agreed. There is no need to worry. It will be smooth before entering Jinmen!"
On the day he arrived at the headquarters, Zhou Weihan notified the Hebei, Shandong and Henan Military Region through the radio. On the evening of the fourth day of the first lunar month, Zhou Weiguo rushed to Yamawang Mountain with a special force.
After getting rid of the cold, Zhou Weiguo didn't bother to eat and went straight to find Zhou Weihan.
"Weiguo, you came very quickly!" Zhou Weihan said with a smile.
"As soon as the telegram was received, Political Commissar Tan released him!"
"After we get to the mountain, we haven't thought about eating yet. Monk, let the cooking team prepare some food!" Zhou Weihan said, using the stove hook to turn on the fire more.
While Zhou Weiguo was having dinner, Zhou Weihan asked about the situation of the Zhinan Military Division?
Zhou Weiguo is now the deputy chief of staff of the Hebei, Shandong and Yu Military Region. When Zhou Weihan is away, he assists Tan Lin in handling the daily affairs of the military region. As a directly subordinate military division, the Zhinan Military Division is also within the scope of his responsibility.
"Years ago, the main force of the military division fought with the East Asia Alliance Autonomous Army in the Nanle and Guancheng areas. While the main force was fighting the enemy on the frontal battlefield, the special forces secretly sneaked into the enemy's command center and destroyed the enemy's command center in one fell swoop.
After that, the enemy's troops on the south bank of the Zhang River were basically annihilated. During the battle, the 42nd Regiment's combat effectiveness was good, and it can basically stand alone for another two to three months!" Zhou Weiguohui reported.
Zhou Weihan nodded after hearing this. There are currently three regiments in the Zhinan Military Division, namely the 1st Regiment, the 1st Independent Regiment, and the 42nd Regiment.
The First Independent Regiment was established in March 1941. In addition to cadres at all levels, the soldiers are all recruits selected from the recalcitrant armed forces. The foundation is relatively weak, but the training time has been nearly a year.
The 42nd Regiment was established at the end of the 10th century. If you look carefully, the time is short, but the old foundation is the combat companies of various military regions. The remaining supplementary sources are the soldiers of the Pacification Army and local armed forces, so the combat effectiveness will naturally increase faster.
"Good guy, if you calculate it like this, the Hebei, Shandong and Yu Military Region has quite a lot of troops!" Zhao Gang said with envy.
"How thick is the current ice on the Zhanghe River?" Zhou Weihan raised another question that concerned him.
"Before we came, I had people detect it. There was nearly one meter of ice in the center of the river, and nearly one and a half feet of ice on the river bank. When we came, we did a special test. A truck carried 20 people.
As a warrior, there is no problem with the ice’s carrying capacity!”
Zhou Weihan heard this and immediately said: "Old Zhao, inform the heavy artillery battalion to arrive at the Hebei, Shandong and Henan Military Region via the Zhanghe River tomorrow!"
The heavy artillery battalion now has eighteen heavy artillery pieces. Considering the situation in the Tainan Military Region and in order to better utilize the firepower advantage of the heavy artillery, Zhou Weihan decided to move the heavy artillery battalion to the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Military Region to cope with the subsequent raids by the Japanese army.
After the establishment of the Zhinan Military Division and the Zhangbei Military Division, the two military divisions built a wooden bridge in order to strengthen contact and facilitate mutual support.
The wooden bridge was wide enough to allow trucks to pass, but it could not bear the weight of heavy artillery. We had no choice but to wait until the Zhang River froze before making any plans.
Then Zhou Weihan introduced the mission of this trip to Zhou Weiguo: "Currently, the headquarters is connecting with comrades in Jinmen. The prepared information will be available tomorrow and we will set off the day after tomorrow. What do you think?"
"Tinmen is an important town of the Japanese army. The 21st Division of the Japanese army is stationed here. 37 years ago, the Japanese army's influence in Tianjin was deeply rooted. Japanese expatriates can be seen everywhere in Tianjin!"
"Compared with Peiping as the political center, Jinmen is more like a commercial city due to the Tanggu Pier and the large number of cargo ships that come and go every day. Another point is that, as far as I know, the Japanese troops of the North China Expeditionary Force were returning home for vacation.
Hiding in Jinmen to gather and go back and forth, so Jinmen is a mixed bag, and it is also an opportunity for us to fish in troubled waters. If we can really take advantage of the convenience of the 41st Division, then this mission will be much simpler!" Zhou Weiguo explained his thoughts.
.
Zhou Weihan and Zhao Gang looked at each other and said immediately: "It seems that choosing you to lead the team is the right choice!"
"Weiguo, this mission is a joint operation between the reconnaissance company and the special forces. You select the personnel. Communicate with the Japanese army and let Dong Jiang take full responsibility. He is familiar with this aspect. You are responsible for the overall command!"
"I won't go into details about the importance of this mission. You also know it, so you must be extremely careful. Of course, if the foreigners on the list cooperate, we will rescue them. If they don't, there is no need to take risks.
, we must rescue them!" Zhou Weihan finally urged.
