Zheng Yaoxian looked at Onizuka Ichizo's confession before him and frowned slightly. He had no idea that the Japs had secretly deployed so many troops on the northern front.
In addition to the original two divisions of the Japanese Second Group Army, the Little Devils mobilized two more divisions from the Chao-Xian Peninsula.
One of them is the Japanese 20th Division that has been stationed in the Chaoxian Peninsula, and the second is the Chaoxian Division. The specific number is unknown, but it is said that the commander is a member of the Chaoxian royal family.
The total strength of the two divisions is no less than 40,000, and when coupled with the Japanese Second Army and some Imperial Alliance troops from the puppet Manchukuo, this number becomes very considerable.
Zheng Yaoxian ordered his men to deal with Onitsuka Ichizo, and he took this information to the telecommunications room to generate electricity for Dragon Boat Festival.
Duanwu was on his way to Jining at this time. He was going to the 56th Army of the Third Army to talk to Liao Guangyi.
As long as Liao Guangyi agrees to submit to the leadership of the Chairman, then the trip to Shandong and the Dragon Boat Festival mission will basically be completed.
Of course, there is another Cao Fulin. But Cao Fulin, first of all, had the chairman's operation before, and secondly, if Sun Tongxuan and Liao Guangyi both submitted to the chairman, Cao Fulin would just give him a little sweetness, and he would be obedient.
obedient.
It's just that there is another pistol brigade that is more difficult to deal with. This pistol brigade is Han Fuju's confidant. And the brigade commander Wu Zhiwen is extremely ambitious. I am afraid that he will betray the enemy and join the Japanese.
And the reason why we traveled all night during the Dragon Boat Festival was precisely because of this.
First, he was worried that the Pistol Brigade would mutiny and join the Japanese. And second, it was Liao Guangyi.
Although Liao Guangyi had some national integrity, he was loyal and obedient to Han Fuju's orders.
Therefore, if that Li Yuqing rushed back to Jining in advance, Liao Guangyi's 56th Army would probably be controlled by Li Yuqing.
But Duanwu did not dare to send a telegram to Liao Guangyi at this time, asking him to beware of Wu Zhiwen and Li Yuqing. Because if this was the case, I am afraid that Liao Guangyi would send someone to deal with Li Yuqing and Wu Zhiwen.
Therefore, it is very difficult to deal with such a foolish and loyal person. He understands all the principles, but when doing things, he is a little hesitant.
Therefore, the Dragon Boat Festival telegram could not be sent, and we could only try our best to arrive in Jining ahead of Li Yuqing.
At this time, Zheng Yaoxian's telegram arrived.
Duanwu ordered the troops to stop and rest, and he also went outside the car to get some air.
Tang Jiujiu also put on a military coat for Duanwu, and then stood behind Duanwu and looked at his focused look.
Perhaps, in that era, love was so simple, even if two people just looked at each other without talking, it was a kind of happiness.
But Duanwu didn't notice Tang Jiujiu's affectionate eyes at all, because his attention was all on the information in front of him.
The intelligence is not good news. Suddenly two more divisions appear on the northern front, so the next Battle of Taierzhuang will be fought. Moreover, there will be a new commander on the northern front, which creates many uncertain factors.
.
But that doesn't matter, because he himself is an uncertain factor.
"It seems that the Battle of Xuzhou will be brought forward."
Duanwu read silently, and then gave the telegram to Lao Abacus and put it away. At this time, Tang Jiujiu said: "What's wrong? I saw that your face didn't look good just now. Did something happen?"
Duanwu smiled and said: "It's okay, there are just a few more Japs on the northern front. But no matter how many there are, they are not as many as we have. It's just that these generals are too rigid in fighting. And some people always want to preserve their own strength and are unwilling to contribute.
.But it doesn’t matter, we’ll wait until we take over the 56th Army first.”
Speaking of this, Duanwu thought of another person, and this person was Zhou Tianyi, Liao Guangyi's brother in charge of the 56th Army.
Zhou Tianyi is a bit interesting, nicknamed Madman Zhou, and his subordinates can fight. If he and Liao Guangyi were swapped, it might be a bit interesting.
However, this may not work, because Zhou Tianyi is also a bit loyal, and it may not be that easy for him to replace his eldest brother.
Thinking of this, Duanwu shook his head, thinking that it is really difficult to change the world.
He looked at the stars and thought in his mind that in order to avoid long nights and dreams, he had to rush to Jining as soon as possible.
Duanwu asked casually: "Old Abacus, how much ocean will we have left when we come back from Kaifeng?"
The old abacus quickly replied: "Team, not counting our own family assets and the military expenses allocated to us by the commission, the money brought back from Kaifeng is less than 150,000 yuan. And that Sun Tongxuan has left us.
I didn't even send the money when I arrived. I think this old boy just wants to default on his debt!"
Duanwu said: "Forget it, as long as he can sincerely fight the Japanese, this little money is nothing. You can give me another part of our military expenditure. Add in the money brought from Kaifeng, and we can make up 200,000 oceans.
I want to use these oceans to buy the 56th Army and the 55th Army."
The old abacus smacked his lips and said: "Tuanzu, it's not easy for us to get money. You are giving it everywhere, and we have no money in our lives?"
Duanwu said: "You don't understand. The war is about to begin, and these two armies are at the forefront. If they don't contribute, or are not friendly enough to our independent regiment, then we will encounter many problems in the next battle.
So don't worry about this small amount of money. Compared with this money, I hope that our independent group can survive a few more in this battle."
Having said this, Duanwu got into the car. Lao Baanpan put away the wheelchair silently, but he was still a little unhappy in his heart, because so much money was just scattered, and he felt really bad.
At this time, Tang Jiujiu also got into the car from the other door and asked, "How about sending a telegram to my uncle and asking him to allocate funds? I can't always let you pay with such a large amount of money?"
Duanwu smiled and said: "Jiujiu, you are still too young. Do you know why your uncle doesn't have long hair?"
Tang Jiujiu said in surprise: "Why?"
Duanwu Xiang pretended to sigh helplessly: "Oh, because he is extremely smart!"
"···········"
Tang Jiujiu was speechless. She didn't expect that the extremely smart person would explain it like this. But after thinking about it, she felt that it made some sense. Her uncle was indeed quite smart.
At this time, Duanwu began to complain: "That old man, a top-notch person, he won't pay. It's good if he doesn't deduct money from me. If we are short of money, I will find a way. Eh.
, By the way, this little devil should be rich. Jining is a good place and close to the little devil. If we can do something with him, wouldn’t we become rich again? "
Tang Jiujiu laughed angrily, gouged out Duanwu and said, "It's easy as you said. You can just take the kid's money as you say?"
Duanwu said disdainfully: "As long as the little devil has money, I can get it."
At this point, Duanwu stuck his head out of the window and shouted: "Old Abacus sent an order and ordered the troops to go to Jining quickly. I smell the smell of money. Tell the brothers that when they get to Jining, I will treat them to meat!"
