Chapter 51 The smoke of gunpowder at Hukou rises again
With Da Dao cigarettes and Xuebing lighters as media, Lin Haifeng decided to start directly with the hard problem and deal with Guo Dai. Besides, he had seen everything that happened in Changling Town just now, and knew that Guo Dai was the most powerful among the group of people. Authoritatively, as long as he was persuaded, it would not be a problem to recruit all these people into the Xuebing Army. He looked at Guo Dai and asked: "What's your surname, brother?"
There was still someone else's cigarette burning in his hand. Guo Dai couldn't act too heartless, so he said unnaturally: "Guo Dai."
Lin Haifeng: "Brother Guo." He nodded: "When our student army sent troops to Taiwan, I actually had doubts about what our commander-in-chief wanted to do. After all, Taiwan has been ruled by the Japanese for more than thirty years. ."
"No, it's forty-three years." Guo Dai interrupted Lin Haifeng directly.
Lin Haifeng really didn't know the exact time. After hearing this, he nodded to him to express his gratitude and continued: "But now, I have firmed up my belief that our student army is sending troops to Taiwan to liberate Taiwan and rescue Taiwan compatriots. Yes, so as long as one of our Xuebingjunmen is here, we will not give up our support for the Taiwan Corps. At the beginning of sending troops to Taiwan, our Commander-in-Chief was actually very worried. He was worried that our Taiwan compatriots had already deteriorated under decades of Japanese rule. Having become obedient people, they can no longer remember their roots. However, judging from the recent war reports, Taiwanese compatriots have not forgotten their roots. They are proud to be the descendants of Yan and Huang. In order to resist Japanese colonial rule, they have devoted themselves one after another. When it comes to the struggle to expel the Japanese aggressors, isn't it a bit far? Brother Guo, don't think I'm hypocritical. What I say is true. In the commendation last month, two of the Taiwanese Corps One of the Taiwanese soldiers received the second-class merit award, and the other received the Medal of the Broadsword..."
Lin Haifeng chose Guo Dai as the target of attack, which was naturally the most difficult, but as he expected, as long as Guo Dai recognized the Xuebing Army, then no one else would have any objections.
After Lin Haifeng's long speech, Guo Dai's original position in his heart had already softened. However, the death of his parents had hit him hard. He had nowhere to vent his resentment. He always had to find someone to blame, and Xue Bingjun was there. He used to be the culprit in his heart, so he still said harshly: "Of course we remember our roots and know the kind of blood flowing in us. However, although the Japanese are cruel, they actually take good care of us Taiwanese. Just take In terms of living standards, our living standards in Taiwan are much better than those in mainland China."
Lin Haifeng nodded and smiled when he heard this: "I admit that the current living standard in Taiwan is higher than the average level in our mainland. But, Brother Guo, can your Taiwan compare with our Guangdong? Not to mention Guangdong, even Fujian, you are now better than No, why is the mainland lagging behind? There are two reasons. One is because it has been invaded and exploited by foreign countries since the Opium War, and the other is because it has just emerged from the civil war. Haha, Taiwan is Chinese, and we on the mainland are also Chinese. People, in essence, the people in the two places have the same culture and race, and there is no difference in intelligence, hard work, etc. Brother Guo, if possible, I suggest you go to Guangzhou. Under our rule, Guangzhou is The most prosperous city, I am not bragging. Guangzhou now is even better than New York and other cities in the United States. Taipei is not comparable. Hearing is deceiving and seeing is believing. Everyone, if you have the chance, let's go and see it together. , it would be nice to have a real comparison.”
"Guangzhou will be richer than Taipei." Zhou Xingqiao didn't believe it.
"Taiwan is still a colony of the Japanese. No matter how hard the Taiwanese work and create more wealth, who does it belong to in the end? Will the Japanese allow you to invest all your hard-earned money in the construction of Taiwan? It's impossible. The reason why they colonized Isn't Taiwan just trying to plunder Taiwan's wealth and labor? On the other hand, in Guangzhou, every household is busy for themselves. When the government makes money, it keeps pouring money into municipal construction. Guangzhou can only become richer and richer. It's getting more and more beautiful... I seem to have gone off topic. Everyone, you must have heard about the nature of our student army from the Japanese. The Japanese regard our student army as a thorn in their eyes and a thorn in their ears. Why, isn’t it because our Xuebing Army hindered their plan to invade China..."
Those who can be selected into Fox Eyes and become group leaders are all outstanding eloquent people. Even though Guo Dai had the idea of acting anger on Xue Bingjun because of the death of his parents, he had to admit it in the face of a lot of facts and truths. , Lin Haifeng is right, but he himself is obviously extreme,
"Brother Guo, I also feel the atmosphere and regret for what happened to Ling's parents, but who is to blame? If the Japanese hadn't invaded Taiwan, this kind of thing would never have happened. Why did the Japanese persecute Ling's parents? Isn't it because You are afraid of our Xuebing Army, and you have nothing to do with your brother, so you can only vent your anger on the old man. The Japanese often call themselves samurai, which is ridiculous. Their behavior is not in line with the code of conduct of samurai. We are all Chinese, why? Are you willing to accept the rule of small Japan? Brother, why do we in China still have poverty and backwardness but the Japanese still dare not take it lightly? It’s because there are so many of us. The Japanese know very well that if we Chinese people unite, even if we spit at each other, we can Submerge the Japanese island, so they want to strike first and invade when we are weak. Brothers, the Japanese are poisonous and force us to fight against each other. Brothers, you must not be fooled by the Japanese. where."
In the student army development plan formulated by Ouyang Yun, Hutong and Langya have always been two organizations that are on par with each other. A considerable number of people disagree with this and rank Langya far ahead of Foxtong, thinking that Xutong In the process of Bingjun's growth, Lang Ya will definitely play a more important role than Fox Tong. Ouyang Yun once criticized this concept. His original words were: Don't underestimate Fox Tong, I tell you, any agent of Fox Tong The role it may play may even be worth that of a regiment or a brigade.
No one who has heard this sentence can remember when Ouyang Yun said it, and Ouyang Yun himself can't remember it clearly. Obviously, although this sentence came from the commander-in-chief, not many people took it seriously. But this time, everything Lin Haifeng did against the Botian detachment in Changling confirmed the correctness of Ouyang Yun's words.
I won’t go into detail about the specific process. In short, when the Madang Fortress was filled with clouds of war and the war was about to break out, Lin Haifeng and Guo Dai began to stir up trouble in the Botian detachment. So, a little later, the Botian detachment faced the enemy. There was a big earthquake, and this earthquake not only affected the direction of the war in Madang, but even affected the Taiwan strategy of the Japanese base camp.
On June 7, a new wave of offensive by the 106th Division began in Hukou. Different from a few days ago, this time, Zhongdao Qingcun only sent a brigade of Japanese troops to launch a landing battle.
The battle a few days ago was too easy, but the credit was extraordinary. After that battle, almost everyone in the 123rd Regiment received awards from the headquarters, with many receiving second-class merit, and even third-class merit.
Yes, therefore, in the past few days, the camp of the 123rd Regiment has been filled with a festive atmosphere.
The news of the appearance of Japanese troops on the other side was quickly conveyed to Wu Gang through the lookout post. Wu Gang did not dare to be careless and immediately ran to the front line with his guards and two staff officers. In the past few nights, the 123rd Regiment and the 112th Regiment took turns.
After the hard work of the soldiers, not only new fortifications were built, but also two new minefields were set up.
Wu Gang is now in charge of the defense of Shizhongshan. When he arrived at the front line, he found that the Japanese troops on the opposite side were only about one brigade. He couldn't help but be a little confused. Soon, Yu Liang, Jiang Youwei and others arrived. He put down his telescope and said to them: "
It’s strange, what does Nakajima Qingcun want to do with just a large group of Japanese soldiers?”
The Japanese have begun to put fishing boats into the water. In the past two days, although the large forces of the two sides have not come into contact, the reconnaissance vanguards have come into contact from time to time. Without exception, the cadet army won every time. Therefore, Nakajima
Qingcun once again brought all the fishing boats to the shore. This is why Wu Gang and Yu Liang were particularly relieved during this period. It was useless for the small Japanese army to sneak over. If a large force attacked, they would have to use boats. So, the process of releasing the boats
It's enough for them to mobilize and adjust their troops,
Yu Liang put down his telescope and guessed, "A tentative attack."
Jiang Youwei: "It's very possible."
Wu Gang did not dare to draw conclusions easily. He said: "Zhongdao Qingcun is known as the 'Long Island Fox'. We'd better be cautious and report it to the brigade headquarters first."
Meng Kailan was still in Yanlie Mountain. When he received the call, he climbed up to the heights of Yanlie Mountain and watched with a telescope for a while, and then gave them instructions: "No matter what the old devil Nakajima wants to do, you should do whatever you want, and hold your position."
That’s fine.”
Nakajima did not dare to hide the tragic defeat on the 4th, and reported it truthfully to Okamura Neiji. Okamura Neiji heard that nearly three thousand soldiers died in a battle across the lake, and even the mountains and ponds were dead. He was so angry at that time
He cursed loudly on the phone and scolded Nakajima until he was penniless.
value, and ordered him to capture Hukou within three days, saying that if the 106th Division could not threaten Madang Fortress from Hukou by then, then Nakajima would no longer need to stay with the 106th Division and go directly to Nanjing.
Let's send reports to the Army General Headquarters,
Nakajima Qingcun is an arrogant person. The previous battle in Jiujiang was too easy, so he put down Neji Okamura’s phone number and focused on the map. He wanted to use his intelligence and wisdom to fight Jiujiang again.
great victory,
More than sixty fishing boats were launched into the water, and a large group of Japanese soldiers boarded the boats. Then, they launched an attack on the other side.
At this time, all the officers and soldiers of the 123rd Regiment on duty had already entered the position. Because they were worried that the Japanese army would follow the rules to prepare artillery fire, the soldiers were hiding in the anti-aircraft holes and waiting for orders.
What surprised Wu Gang, Yu Liang and others was that the little Japanese did not prepare for artillery fire. The fleet had rowed to a normal distance without firing a single shot, which made them even more confused.
