Chu Zhongtian had already returned and gasped violently: "Brigade, it's the Eighth Route Army attacking the Xishan Army Horse Farm!"
Yue Weihan frowned for a moment, but Liu Yi said in disbelief: "Why did the Eighth Route Army also come to Jining?"
"It's not just the Eighth Route Army." Chu Zhongtian nodded and added, "The cavalry battalion is also here. They just killed a cavalry squadron of the Little Devils in the northern suburbs, but the casualties were not small."
"What?" Yue Weihan said with a sudden change of expression, "The cavalry battalion is also here, and they are having sex with the little devil?"
"What the hell is going on?" Liu Yi said angrily, "This Liu Fengsheng, who asked him to bring the troops to Jining? Doesn't this expose the whereabouts of our Baoshan Brigade? Jining will follow
The little devils in the city must be on guard, how can the war brigade sneak attack the arsenal? Damn it."
"What's the use of talking about this now?" Yue Weihan suddenly raised his hand and asked Chu Zhongtian, "Did the Eighth Route Army's attack on the Xishan Army Racecourse go smoothly?"
"Homing and Tiger."
"These thugs really know how to pick the right time." Niu Dagen cursed, "If you don't come early, you won't come late, but you come at this time. Now it's better. Our plan was in vain. It seems we will lose money this time.
Already."
"Shut up, everyone." Yue Weihan said coldly, "Don't you dare say weird things here."
Niu Dagen didn't dare to say anything anymore, but looking at the expression on his face, it was obvious that he was unhappy.
Liu Yi sighed and said to Yue Weihan: "Brigade, the fighter plane has been lost, shall we withdraw?"
"No." Yue Weihan waved his hand and said thoughtfully, "Let me think about it, let me think about it again..."
After pondering for a moment, Yue Weihan said to Liu Yi: "Chief of Staff, if you were led by Suzuki and found that our Baoshan Brigade suddenly reached outside Jining City, what would you do?"
Liu Yi said without hesitation: "It goes without saying that we should quickly mobilize the troops to come back and make our dumplings."
Yue Weihan said: "But the Japanese army is chasing the Black Dragon Society, Tianshi Dao, Baihumen, Meng family, Cao family and other local armed forces. The nearest ones are hundreds of miles away. When they rush back to Jining, it will be tomorrow at the earliest.
It's morning, if we rush to Jining and Suzuki is under heavy pressure, what do you think he will do?"
"Um..." Liu Yi asked back, "Prince, what do you think this old devil Suzuki will do?"
"Deploy troops!" Yue Weihan waved his fist fiercely and said decisively, "Deploy troops from Zoucheng, because Zoucheng is the closest to Jining!"
"Zou Cheng?" Liu Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said with a face full of shock, "Traveler, are you thinking..."
"Yes, that's what I think!" Yue Weihan said with murderous intent, "This is like picking up the watermelon after losing the sesame seeds. Jining seems to have failed in a sneak attack, but the Eighth Route Army's interference may have created a sneak attack for us.
However, if you want to successfully attack Zoucheng, you must have the cooperation of the Eighth Route Army! This guy Peng Mingzhi dares to use our cavalry battalion as a spearman. I will use him as a spearman this time, no matter what.
I'm both a brigade commander, so I'm one level senior to him!"
After saying this, Yue Weihan said to Chu Zhongtian: "Zhongtian, immediately fire green flares into the city and order the special forces brigade to abandon the plan to attack the arsenal and attack the east gate instead!" The special operations brigade had prepared in advance before entering the city.
Two sets of plans were drawn up. If everything went well, of course they would raid the arsenal as planned. Once the plan was exposed, they would immediately attack the east gate and prepare for a breakout.
"Yes." Chu Zhongtian agreed and took the order.
Yue Weihan said to Li Yulong again: "Yulong, immediately lead the bayonet battalion to launch an assault on the east gate. Cooperate with the special operations brigade inside and outside to capture the east gate within ten minutes. After capturing the city gate, I will take it easy and don't fight too hard."
Be ruthless, and don’t rush into the city to fight with the little devils in the streets, do you hear me clearly?”
"Listen clearly!" Li Yulong stood up suddenly and responded loudly.
Yue Weihan nodded and said to Liu Yi: "Chief of Staff, let's go to the Xishan Military Horse Farm."
…
Jining City East, private houses.
During the suffocating wait, two green flares suddenly rose outside the city.
Liu Tiezhu suddenly stood up and quickly ordered in sign language: "Team 3, pretend to attack the arsenal to attract the attention of the Japanese; Team 1 raids the east gate; Team 2 protects the back of Team 1 and is responsible for supporting Team 3. Do you see clearly?"
Pang Hu and Cao Shangfei raised their right hands at the same time and gave a thumbs up to Liu Tiezhu.
Liu Tiezhu suddenly raised his right hand, turned his palm into a knife, and then moved forward to strike hard. More than 60 elite members of the special operations brigade jumped over the wall as quickly as possible, and immediately divided into three groups, more than 20 of them.
People were shooting towards the arsenal while shooting, but more than 20 people rushed towards the east gate like ghosts, and the remaining 20 people disappeared into the deep alley.
…
In Jining City, the Japanese command post.
After Major General Suzuki's order was issued, the arsenal and headquarters were quickly placed under tight protection.
In less than twenty minutes, Sun Liangcheng's Sixth Brigade of the Imperial Association Army had also controlled four dry gates, and Chi Dianwen's water guard team had also controlled two water gates. Major General Suzuki could finally breathe a little easier, but he still didn't dare.
Don't take it lightly, because Yue Weihan and the Baoshan Brigade are too dangerous!
Suddenly, the phone in the headquarters rang.
Major General Suzuki quickly picked up the phone. The call was from the arsenal. Captain Otani reported that the arsenal was raided by a small group of Chinese armed forces. This group of Chinese armed forces was small in number but very powerful. Their marksmanship was particularly good. The arsenal's garrison squadron
In less than five minutes of fighting with them, there were already more than 20 casualties!
"Hold on, you must hold on! Mine will send reinforcements immediately!"
Cold sweat broke out on Major General Suzuki's forehead again. He had never expected that a Chinese armed force had already sneaked into Jining City under his nose. It was not difficult to judge from Captain Otani's description that this armed force should be the Baoshan Brigade.
It seems that the Baoshan Brigade is indeed just outside Jining City!
Major General Suzuki immediately drew an infantry squadron from the headquarters to reinforce the arsenal.
The infantry squadron to reinforce the arsenal had just set off when Sun Liangcheng, commander of the 6th Brigade of the Imperial Association Army, called again, reporting that the east gate was being attacked by the national army from both inside and outside. The Second Regiment of the Imperial Association Army guarding the east gate was about to be overwhelmed.
After a while, Major General Suzuki did not dare to neglect, and immediately drew out an infantry squadron from the headquarters to reinforce the east gate.
However, before the Japanese squadron arrived, the east gate had already been lost.
Speaking of which, Sun Liangcheng is also famous. In his early years, he was one of the Thirteen Taibao under Feng Yuxiang. Later, he became one of the Five Tiger Generals. After Feng Yuxiang was defeated in the Central Plains War, Sun Liangcheng led his troops to defect to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. He fought in Songhu and Xuzhou.
They all participated. After the retreat from Xuzhou, their troops were incorporated into the First War Zone under Cheng Qian.
More than half a month ago, Sun Liangcheng and Shi Yousan were ordered to lead their troops deep into Jizhong and Luxi to fight guerrillas.
Sun Liangcheng was unlucky. As soon as he arrived in western Shandong, he was beaten by the Japanese army. He broke through several times to no avail. With only a few hundred people left, he had no choice but to surrender. Therefore, Sun Liangcheng's old troops had already been wiped out. So-called
The Sixth Brigade of the Imperial Association Army was just a temporary ragtag group. How could it withstand the internal and external attacks of the bayonet battalion and the special operations brigade?
When Major General Suzuki heard that the East Gate had been lost, he broke into a cold sweat and thought that the Baoshan Brigade was indeed not a vegetarian.
Fortunately, the infantry squadron that reinforced the east gate quickly stabilized the defense line. After all, the Baoshan Brigade failed to break into the city and was blocked by the imperial army in the area near the city gate. Major General Suzuki called to urge the Shuiye Brigade (independent mixed group) stationed in Zoucheng.
After the 10th Brigade quickly came for reinforcements, they led the gendarmerie to the east gate to supervise the battle.
…
North of Jining City, Xishan Military Horse Farm.
The Eighth Route Army has occupied the military horse farm and will clean up the battlefield on time.
Lu Han, captain of the 1st Brigade, hurriedly came to Peng Mingzhi carrying a lieutenant's knife and said happily: "Captain, we have made a fortune this time. Not to mention guns and ammunition, we have more than 400 horses and soldiers."
There! There are also more than 20 cows and more than a hundred Han sheep, which can be cured into bacon and enough to feed our detachment for a year, hehe."
Peng Mingzhi frowned and said, "It's enough to bring a dozen or so cattle and sheep back to have a tooth ceremony. If you bring them all, it will seriously affect the marching speed. If the little devils chase them up, it will be troublesome."
"Ah?" Lu Han said regretfully, "It's such a pity that there are so many cattle and sheep."
"Look at how promising you are." Peng Mingzhi scolded, "You know how to eat all day long."
As soon as he finished speaking, a young soldier suddenly walked over quickly with two national army officers.
Peng Mingzhi looked back and saw the two national army officers wearing riding boots and stiff woolen uniforms. The officer in front had a gold collar badge, so he was a major general! In an instant, Peng Mingzhi knew who was coming.
Who is it? Looking at the entire Lunan region, who else can carry the national army officer with the rank of major general besides Yue Weihan?
"Yue Brigade!" Peng Mingzhi's feet were not straight, and he lazily saluted as a military salute.
Yue Weihan returned the standard military salute and said, "You must be Commander Peng, right?"
"Yeah." Peng Mingzhi nodded and said, "I wonder if Yue Lvzuo is here, what advice can you give me?"
Liu Yi beside him couldn't help but turned away in anger, thinking that this guy didn't look like a regiment leader, but more like a division commander.
However, Yue Weihan didn't take it seriously and said: "Commander Peng, it seems that your department has just won a big victory. Congratulations."
"What the hell." Peng Mingzhi shook his head repeatedly, "I just started a little side business, how can I claim victory?"
Yue Weihan smiled and said: "Captain Peng, I seemed to have seen the cavalry battalion just now. Could it be that you transferred it?"
"Yue Brigade, I really sent you here." Peng Mingzhi said with a sly smile, "Look, with such a big piece of fat at the Xishan Military Horse Farm, I, Lao Peng, can't keep it all to himself, right? So I gave you the Brigade.
The cavalry battalion was brought with us. We are all Chinese and friendly forces, so we should share hardships and share blessings. What do you think, brigade commander?"
Peng Mingzhi also knew that the cavalry battalion had lost many veterans, and he knew that he would not be able to keep the spoils for himself this time.
Yue Weihan never thought about dividing this spoil with Peng Mingzhi. What he wanted was Zoucheng's arsenal!
"Hahaha, well said! We are all Chinese and friendly forces, so we should share the hardships and share the blessings!" Yue Weihan immediately clapped and laughed. This was what he was waiting for.
