However, after daybreak, Gui Tianjia ordered his troops and horses and marched towards Kuancheng in a mighty manner. Along the way, in order to gain the upper hand in a verbal war in front of the Japanese in the future, he even pinched his nose and asked his subordinates to spread the word. , explained his reasons for sending troops to Kuancheng, so soon, the news about the fight between Gui Tianjia of the Ninth Army and Xue Degui of the Thirteenth Army to snatch a woman spread throughout Changchun City, except for the Japanese who were fooled In the dark, almost all the young and old men in Changchun City knew about it.
Completely different from what Gui Tianjia had guessed, after Xue Degui snatched Cuihua back, he did not rush to become a real brother-in-law with Gui Tianjia. Instead, he visited Zhao Chengqi, the commander of the Fifth Army of the Puppet Manchukuo Defense Force, overnight.
Because it was close to two o'clock in the morning, Zhao Chengqi was very surprised by Xue Degui's arrival. After seeing Xue Degui and his energetic look, he became even more curious. In the system of the Puppet Manchukuo National Defense Force, the relationship between the two was still there. It was pretty good. They always treated each other like brothers, so he couldn't help but asked: "My brother is so energetic. What happy event is this?"
Xue Degui pretended to be smug and said: "Hurry up and serve the wine. Brother, today I finally let go of the bad breath I had held in my heart many years ago."
"Come, serve the wine, and bring over the roast chicken." Zhao Chengqi immediately ordered his adjutant, and then said to Xue Degui: "Tell me, tell me, I really want to know what is going on."
"Do you remember Cuihua?"
It happened many years ago, and it was between Xue Degui and Gui Tianjia. Zhao Chengqi really couldn't remember it for a moment: "Cuihua."
"I snatched him back. Now I really want to know what Gui Tianjia's expression looks like now." Xue Degui said and laughed.
Hearing what he said, Zhao Chengqi immediately had an impression. He first gave a thumbs up and said: "Brother, you should have done this a long time ago." Then he couldn't help but worry for Xue Degui: "But now is not the time?" , you know, because of the desertion incident and the unfavorable war in Heilongjiang, the Japanese are biting people everywhere like mad dogs. Gui Tianjia has won the trust of the Japanese. If he makes trouble with Yamada Otsuzo, my brother may not be able to escape. good."
"He dares. If he dares to do this, I wonder why he will still hang out in Jilin in the future. Brother, let me tell you, Cuihua is more beautiful now than before."
Zhao Chengqi shook his head with a wry smile, then thought of something and asked, "Then why did you come to me instead of Hua Zhu in the bridal chamber in Kuancheng? But other people, Cuihua, think you are not good at it, brother."
Xue Degui laughed awkwardly, and deliberately breathed out a breath of alcohol, saying: "Brother, I know I can't hide it from you." Then he yelled: "It's all the fault of that bastard Dai Ertu, I said recently. He insisted on dragging me to drink when I was not allowed to drink. You know, I like to have a good time when I drink. No, I drank too much. Then I happened to talk about Gui Tianjia. I refused to accept this and went to Yongchun. In fact, I just went to Yongchun. From the beginning, I wanted to bring bad luck to Gui Tianjia, but who knows, hey, brother, I feel a little regretful now. Although I am not convinced by Gui Tianjia, I have to admit that this boy does have a way of leading troops in war, otherwise Just based on this guy's statement that he is "invincible in all Manchuria", I would have gone up to kill him. Moreover, he has always been on good terms with Gu Zhengjiang of the Eighth Army. If he persuades Gu Zhengjiang to come with him, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to survive. .”
Zhao Chengqi couldn't guess Xue Degui's purpose after hearing this. At this time, his adjutant had already brought the food and wine. He first filled a glass of wine for Xue Degui and himself, then picked up the wine glass and said: "Brother's matter , Of course brothers have to help, but brother, listen to me first, this situation will be different now than before. I think if it can be resolved peacefully, it is better for you to accept the inferiority."
Zhao Chengqi's words are actually quite pertinent and heartbreaking. Under any other circumstances, Xue Degui would definitely feel his goodwill even if he couldn't listen. But now, because the purpose of his trip is to win over Zhao Chengqi. He was in the water, so he could only pretend to be confused. Suddenly, his brows stood up, and then he glared at Zhao Chengqi and said: "Brother, I heard you right, don't you know what the relationship between me and Gui Tianjia is? If you want me to bow down to him, just pretend I didn't come this time and say goodbye." With that, he stood up and walked outside.
At this time, Zhao Chengqi had concluded that he was still drunk. Seeing that he was about to leave angrily, of course he refused. He quickly stood up and stepped forward to stop him and said: "Brother, I didn't say I won't help. You, please sit down and calm down." , I think this matter is big or small, let’s sum it up, haha, yes, Gui Tianjia does have a good way of leading troops in war, but I don’t admit that he is invincible in Manchuria. "
"That sounds pretty good." Xue Degui muttered, then sat down again half-pushingly.
Compared with Xue Degui, Zhao Chengqi is much more experienced in leading troops to fight, and his ability to control troops is far better than Xue Degui. Even the agents of the CIA have not been able to break in until now. However, although Zhao Chengqi is very scheming. He was good at making judgments, but he never expected that Xue Degui would join forces with CIA agents to plot against him, so he had the understanding that "this matter is either big or small."
Obviously, at this time, he was still thinking about being a mediator and helping Xue Degui and Gui Tianjia reconcile with each other. He also thought that he and Gu Zhengjiang could reconcile with each other.
So, when the Ninth Army and the Thirteenth Army met the next day and started fighting without saying a word, and a violent explosion occurred in the armory of the Thirteenth Army, his first reaction was "suffered", and then he realized that the situation might be It was not what Xue Degui said, but when the ambush troops of the Thirteenth Army rushed out from all directions, and the Ninth Army did not say anything and even attacked his guard regiment, he knew that he had been fooled, "Mother." Yes, this old fox Xue Degui has plotted against me." He cursed in his heart, but he could only bite the bullet and lead his own guard regiment to help the Thirteenth Army and the Ninth Army.
Yes, Xue Degui sent people to blow up the armory of the Thirteenth Army himself. As for why he did this, it was very simple. It was to completely muddy the situation and make this personal grudge between him and Gui Tianjia clear. It just turned into a big melee.
His move was naturally beyond Gui Tianjia's expectations. Gui Tianjia was ready for a big fight, but this so-called big fight had limits in his original vision. , Gui Tianjia clearly knew the status of himself and Xue Degui in the hearts of the Japanese, so he originally concluded that Xue Degui would not dare to let things get out of control, so when a violent explosion suddenly occurred in the armory of the Thirteenth Army, he The first reaction was to scold his men in shock and anger: "Who did it? Who asked me to blow up the armory of the Thirteenth Army?"
