At this time, Chen Shusheng had received the Dragon Boat Festival message. While he sent people to the town government to ask the county magistrate to issue a notice, he also ordered people to load the materials in the warehouse and prepare them to be taken away.
Of course, besides that, Chen Shusheng still has two important things to do. The first is to send scouts out of the city to investigate the direction in which the Japs are coming, and how many people are there. The second is to protect Miss Tang from leaving safely.
Bengbu.
But Tang Jiujiu is not that easy to talk to. She was still angry with Duanwu because Duanwu ran away without saying a word.
So Dragon Boat Festival gave Chen Shusheng a plan, which was the military tickets of those Japanese. Let Tang Jiujiu protect those military tickets, and she would not mess around.
And sure enough, when Tang Jiujiu heard that Chen Shusheng had entrusted such an important responsibility to her, she was no longer angry. Instead, she and Arou immediately went to guard the warehouse and watch the soldiers loading the trucks.
The military coupons of these devils are used to do business with the Soviets during the Dragon Boat Festival, so no trace of them should be missing.
So it was precisely because of this that Tang Jiujiu believed Chen Shusheng's words.
Seeing this, Chen Shusheng also breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, Miss Tang didn't make a fuss and could follow him out of the city safely.
Previously, Chen Shusheng had a disagreement because he was not on this mission. It was not until Duanwu said: Staying in Bengbu is just as important, and Bengbu must be guarded by someone, that Chen Shusheng stayed.
But why did Duanwu suddenly decide to keep Chen Shusheng?
In fact, originally I wanted to take Chen Shusheng with me during the Dragon Boat Festival. After all, a war requires a supply of troops.
But then he thought about it, if the Independent Regiment and the 522nd Regiment were all dispatched, then who would defend this city?
The local security group? That's a joke. This security group can fight bandits, but if they encounter a sneak attack by Japanese soldiers, they won't even be able to defeat a Japanese squad.
But in Bengbu, there are many things stored in the Dragon Boat Festival. For example, the Japanese military coupons, as well as oceans, gold bars, weapons and equipment and other important military supplies.
You can't take these things with you to fight during the Dragon Boat Festival, so you can only find a reliable person to guard them.
Chen Shusheng is the best candidate. Not only is Chen Shusheng a stable man, but the most important thing is that Chen Shusheng, the supply camp, can fight.
According to common sense, as a supply force, a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people, including little devils, are in charge.
But Chen Shusheng's supply camp is different, because there is also a machine gun company in the supply camp.
Almost everyone in this machine gun company has a machine gun, which is used for training on weekdays. Once a war breaks out, other people in the supply camp will become the ammunition carriers of this machine gun company.
Just imagine, if all the personnel of the supply camp were engaged in battle, how terrifying would it be if more than a hundred machine guns opened fire at the same time?
Moreover, the baggage battalion will never worry about ammunition, because they themselves transport ammunition.
Therefore, it is precisely because of this that Chen Shusheng's supply camp, which can be attacked and defended, was left behind, and they were seizing the time to load the supplies into the trucks.
"Battle Commander Chen, Camp Commander Chen?"
At this moment, the county magistrate of Bengbu came and started shouting before he even entered the door.
Chen Shusheng came up to him and asked, "County Magistrate Zhou, what's the matter?"
County Magistrate Zhou gasped and said: "Battle Commander Chen, according to your instructions, I also issued notices and sent people to beat gongs and go door to door to tell them that the Japanese were coming, and told them to leave Bengbu quickly. But they all
I don’t want to listen, I don’t believe the Japanese will come at all. Some people even said, what do the many defenders in Bengbu do for food?”
Chen Shusheng frowned, but then he remembered what the group leader said in the telegram: If they don't leave, you go first and tell them to bear the consequences.
Although Chen Shusheng didn't know what the group seat meant, he said: "If they don't leave, tell them to bear the consequences. County Magistrate Zhou, first load your county government and all the valuable things in the city and take them away. What should we do?"
You can't even leave it to the little devil."
County Magistrate Zhou said with some embarrassment: "I am the official parent of the people here. How can I leave first when the Japanese come?"
"Eh?"
Chen Shusheng suddenly thought of something because of County Magistrate Zhou's words. The County Magistrate leaves first. Then when the people see it, won't they understand that Bengbu cannot be defended?
"Wonderful, worthy of a group seat."
Chen Shusheng thought to himself that he didn't understand why Tuan Zuo did this before, but County Magistrate Zhou's words made him realize it.
He hurriedly said: "I told you to just leave. Where can there be so much nonsense? This is what our group means. If you dare to disobey, I don't think you even have to go to court. According to wartime regulations, disobedience on the battlefield will result in immediate death."
Already."
County Magistrate Zhou gnashed his teeth and said in his heart: "Okay, I'd better go!"
Thinking of this, County Magistrate Zhou nodded and said, "I'll leave now."
With that said, County Magistrate Zhou was about to leave, but at this moment, Chen Shusheng thought of something again and said: "County Magistrate Zhou, when you leave, don't forget your friends. Tell them that Bengbu Governor
The troops have all left and there is no way to hold on. When the Japanese enter the city, they will kill everyone they see. If they don’t leave, they will be beheaded!”
County Magistrate Zhou was surprised for a moment, but he suddenly realized it after a moment and nodded again: "Okay, I'll do it right away!"
County Magistrate Zhou said and ran away at a trot. On the way, he met several patrolmen from the police station and asked them to shout loudly. Then he shouted as Chen Shusheng wanted.
This shout was indeed effective, but when they saw County Magistrate Zhou taking his wife and children out of the North City Gate with lots of gold and silver, they all hurried home to pack their things.
Seeing that the county magistrate and the wealthy people had all run away, the other common people thought to themselves: This little devil's plan to call may be true.
Moreover, they had also heard about the cruelty of the Japs, who committed murder and arson everywhere, committing all kinds of evil. So they all took gold, silver, soft and valuable things at home, and went out of the north city gate to go into the forest.
Because Chen Shusheng also said that their departure was only temporary. As long as the large forces came back, they could still come back. They just went out to hide for a while.
So after leaving the city, the people did not go too far, but went into the woods outside the city to watch.
At the same time, Chen Shusheng also loaded various supplies, weapons and equipment into trucks and took them away. Including Tang Jiujiu and A Rou, these two people also sat on the truck and left the city from the north gate, preparing to go into the mountains to escape.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, gunfire suddenly came from the south city gate.
Chen Shusheng listened with his ears pricked up. Among the gunshots made in Hanyang, there was the sound of the Type 38 rifle.
The sound of the Type 38 rifle was not very loud, but soon the sound of the Hanyang-made gunfire disappeared.
Chen Shusheng frowned because the scouts he sent out never came back, but the Japs had already reached the south gate of Bengbu.
Hearing the sound of gunshots, Chen Shusheng knew even without seeing it with his own eyes that those who were built by Hanyang were Bengbu's original security regiment, and the sound of those Type 38 rifles was that of the Japs who had already arrived at the city.
But it's obvious that those security groups couldn't stop the little devils at all, even for a moment, they couldn't do it!
