When the teacher heard this, he felt relieved. He said: "Very good. If there is any situation, report it to the division headquarters in time." After saying that, he put down the phone.
The chief of staff heard the conversation between the commander and the division commander. He said with some concern: "Commander, you concealed Xu Dalong's departure from the base area from the division commander. If something goes wrong, will the head of the headquarters blame you? "
The commander said confidently: "I believe in Xu Dalong, he will definitely not disappoint our expectations."
Before the commander finished speaking, the sound of someone running was heard outside the war room, and then someone shouted: "Commander, good news, great victory, great victory."
Following the shouting, the door of the war room was pushed open, and the communications section chief ran in quickly. As he ran, he shouted: "Commander, great victory."
The commander asked: "Is it the telegram sent by Xu Dalong and others?"
The communications section chief was so excited that when he came to the commander, he forgot to salute and said incoherently: "Yes and no."
The chief of staff said dissatisfied: "What do you mean yes and no? Is it true or not?"
The communications section chief took a breath and then said: "This is a telegram sent by Captain Xu, but it is not sent to our headquarters. It is a clear telegram." He handed over the telegram.
The commander reached out and took the telegram, a smile suddenly appeared on his face. He glanced at it and handed the telegram to the chief of staff.
After reading this, the chief of staff also beamed with joy. He read aloud: "Anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians, our underground anti-Japanese armed forces cooperated closely with the Shanxi-Sui Army and ambushed the 16th Brigade of the Eighth Division of the Japanese Army at 9:00 this morning. After five hours of fierce fighting, more than 11,400 people below the commander of the Katayama Brigade of the 16th Japanese Brigade were completely wiped out, and all their weapons and equipment were seized. At present, our unit has been safely transferred and is returning to the Mawushan base area at full speed.
The Japanese's 32nd garrison division and the 21st brigade of the fifth division attempted to sneak attack our Mawushan base area. The soldiers and civilians in our base area are ready to deal a heavy blow.
Xu Dalong, captain of the Mawushan Guerrilla Brigade, and Chu Yunfei, commander of the 358th Brigade of the Shanxi-Sui Army.
Today. "
After the chief of staff finished reading the telegram, the war room was filled with joy. The staff cheered loudly with excitement, and everyone burst into applause.
The chief of staff said excitedly: "Xu Dalong and the others are really good. They completely annihilated the Japanese 16th Brigade in just five hours. This is really a great victory!"
Having said this, he asked with some confusion: "Commander, why didn't Xu Dalong report to us instead of sending a clear telegram?"
The commander smiled and said: "This is Xu Dalong's brilliance. Now he has led the main force to leave the base area, and the Japanese army is aggressively attacking the base area. Think about it, if the Japanese army attacking the base area heard that the 16th Brigade was annihilated, and There is news that Xu Dalong and his main force are rushing back to the base area, what will happen to them?"
The chief of staff said: "Oh, this is such a good idea! The little devils will be frightened when they hear that the 16th Brigade has been wiped out.
When they heard that Xu Dalong was leading the main force back to the base area, they quickly fled with their tails between their legs without being frightened. In this way, the base area would be safe. "
The commander, chief of staff and others were discussing animatedly when the phone rang again.
The call was still from the division commander, who said to the commander: "You guy, why didn't Xu Dalong and the others report such big movements to me?"
Although the teacher spoke in a reproachful tone, one could hear that his tone was full of excitement.
The commander smiled and said: "Commander, when you called just now, I also just learned that Xu Dalong and the others had left the base area to ambush the Japanese 16th Brigade. I am not particularly clear about the situation, and I am afraid that you will be worried, so I didn’t report it to you, so please forgive me.”
The division commander smiled and said: "Xu Dalong and the others are really good. The head of the headquarters asked me to convey the commendation to Xu Dalong and the others. If you convey the commendation order from the head of the headquarters to Xu Dalong and the others, you will say that the head of the headquarters is very satisfied."
"Yes, don't worry, division commander, I will definitely convey the instructions from the head of the headquarters and your instructions to Xu Dalong and the others," the commander said.
"The Sword Comes"
Taiyuan, headquarters of the Japanese First Army.
Commander Yoshio Shinozuka received a clear telegram from Xu Dalong and was shocked.
He immediately sent a telegram to the Japanese Eighth Division, and soon confirmed that the contents of Xu Dalong's telegram were true.
He was very worried that the Japanese troops attacking the Mawushan base would suffer heavy losses again, so he quickly sent a telegram to the 32nd garrison division, 21st brigade and 110th division, asking them to quickly withdraw to the original defense area to avoid being attacked by the Mawushan guerrillas. The main attack.
The 110th Division encountered constant harassment from the Mawushan guerrilla cavalry and tank troops along the way. It was advancing at a snail's pace, and was still losing troops and generals. It had long lost the confidence to catch up with the Independent Brigade and annihilate it.
After receiving the telegram from Yoshio Shinozuka, the division commander did not hesitate to order the rear team to change to the front team and returned directly to Yangquan City.
After Qianye Xunyi received the clear telegram, his face immediately turned pale. He didn't even wait for Yoshio Shinozuka to give the order to retreat, and immediately turned around and fled with the 32nd garrison division.
Although Chiba Xunyi praised Yan Guiwu in person, he still did not take him and his Huang Xiejun 4th Division seriously, and even forgot to notify Yan Guiwu when he escaped.
After they ran a long way, the chief of staff reminded him to notify Yan Guiwu to retreat from Yinping County to avoid being surrounded and annihilated by the Mawushan guerrillas.
Qianye Xunyi then sent a telegram to Yan Guiwu, asking him to quickly escape with his troops.
Yan Guiwu did not really come to attack the Mawushan base area. He also received a clear telegram from Xu Dalong. There was no need for Qianye Xunyi to remind him, he could run faster than Qianye Xunyi. They immediately evacuated Yinping County and fled in a puff of smoke.
In order to show their sincerity to Xu Dalong, they deliberately dropped a large number of weapons and ammunition on the road and left them for the Mawushan guerrillas. He doesn't have to worry about these at all, the little devils will replenish them for him anyway.
The commander of the Yokota Brigade of the 21st Japanese Brigade also received a clear telegram from Xu Dalong, but this guy was already on fire and was bent on taking over the county seat and had no plans to retreat.
When Yoshio Shinozuka's telegram arrived, he also sent a telegram to Yoshio Shinozuka to explain. He asked to continue the offensive and capture the county seat of Guancheng.
Yoshio Shinozuka was very angry. He thought Yokota didn't know how to live or die, and they didn't know how powerful the Mawu Mountain guerrillas were.
Yoshio Shinozuka told him that the 110th Division and the 32nd Garrison Division had already evacuated, leaving only one of his brigade there. If the delay continued, they would definitely be surrounded and annihilated. He was ordered to retreat immediately, otherwise he would be court-martialed for disobedience.
Although Yokota was unwilling, he could only carry out Shinozuka Yoshio's order and lead his troops to retreat.
Before leaving, in order to vent his anger, he ordered all the artillery to blast the enemy's positions and then retreat towards Taiyuan.
Guancheng County.
Although Li Yunlong appeared calm in the face of the enemy's massive attack, the troops under his command were not brought out by himself. He still had no idea about the combat effectiveness of these county brigades. Facing the massive Japanese attack , he was still a little worried, so he also hoped that Xu Dalong and the others would return to the base area quickly.
Zhao Gang's determination was far inferior to that of Li Yunlong. Seeing the Japanese army approaching Guancheng County step by step, he couldn't help but feel a little panic. He couldn't help but send a telegram to Xu Dalong to ask them about the situation there.
The anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians in the county town had heard the rumble of artillery fire coming from outside the city. Everyone was panicked, worried that the guerrillas would not be able to defend the county town and they would be massacred by the Japanese army.
At this moment, Xu Dalong's clear telegram was sent. Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and others' hearts suddenly fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, good news continued to come that the Japanese garrison 32nd Division and 21st Brigade had begun to retreat.
Li Yunlong was not willing to let the Japanese escape like this, so he immediately issued an order. Let the troops staying in the base area and the county brigade pursue the enemy. No matter what, being able to kill one more little devil is also a victory.
The victory of Yangpo once again caused a sensation across the country. Anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians in the rear set off firecrackers to celebrate the victory. Many cities also held parades to celebrate.
The names of Xu Dalong, Zhang Dabiao, Kong Jie, Wang Limin, Chu Yunfei and others appeared in many newspapers and magazines, and they became famous anti-Japanese heroes.
This victory attracted the attention of the top management of the Guofu government. The Committee of the Municipal Government specially awarded Xu Dalong 100,000 yuan in French currency. It also extended an invitation to the underground party office in Chongqing, hoping that Xu Dalong could go to the Zhongyang Military Academy in Chengdu to give a lecture and teach Guerrilla tactics.
For the purpose of united front work, the head of the headquarters agreed to Guofu's request, but told Guofu that the Japanese army was about to launch a large-scale attack on the Mawushan base area. Xu Dalong was temporarily unable to make the trip. After the Japanese attack was repelled, he was sent to Chongqing.
The headquarters then notified the Taiyue Military Region about the matter, and the Taiyue Military Region conveyed it to Xu Dalong.
After Lin Xueying received the telegram, she saw the news that Xu Dalong was going to Chongqing, and she felt a little hopeful. She thought that when Xu Dalong set off, she would be able to return to Chongqing with him, go home to see him, and let her parents meet Xu Dalong.
Lin Xueying came to Xu Dalong's office and handed the telegram to him.
While Xu Dalong was reading the telegram, she was thinking about how to tell him that she wanted to return to Chongqing with him.
After Xu Dalong read the telegram, he remembered the last time Monk Wei and others followed Lin Xueying to Chongqing to recruit pilots. At that time, Monk Wei and others came back and reported that Lin Xueying turned out to be the daughter of Lieutenant General Guojun.
At that time, because Lin Xueying did not take the initiative to tell Xu Dalong her origin, Xu Dalong did not talk about it.
Xu Dalong put down the telegram and said to Lin Xueying: "Xueying, isn't your home in Chongqing? When I go to Chongqing after this battle, you can come with me. I will go home to visit your parents and family."
Lin Xueying did not expect that Xu Dalong would actually offer to go to Chongqing with him. She felt that Xu Dalong was very considerate and said happily: "Thank you, Brother Dalong, I was just thinking about going home to have a look."
Xu Dalong asked curiously: "Xueying, you have such a family background, why did you join the military in the first place?"
Lin Xueying was young and had a passion to serve the country. After the Anti-Japanese War broke out, she asked to join the army and go to the front line, but her parents did not agree.
Later, the military commander came to their school to recruit students. At that time, the military commander happened to do a few things to assassinate Japanese traitors, which caused a strong response in the society. Lin Xueying admired the heroic behavior of the military commander through life and death, and impulsively took revenge. name, and went through the enrollment procedures without telling his family, which was actually the procedure for joining the military.
By the time his father found out about it, it was too late.
Lin Xueying told Xu Dalong the situation at that time, and Xu Dalong expressed his understanding. It is normal for young people to be passionate and impulsive and make inappropriate choices.
However, Xu Dalong still felt a little confused. Ordinarily, given the status of Lin Xueying's father, Lin Xueying had not yet graduated from the military unification special training class. At this time, she still had a chance to break away from the military unification. Lin Xueying finally chose to join the army. There may be other reasons for this.
Xu Dalong didn't want to ask too many questions. No matter what, he believed that Lin Xueying was a good girl, and her willingness to join the underground party's anti-Japanese armed forces was sincere. He said: "Let the past be in the past. As long as you are willing, you can definitely start. Of new life.”
Lin Xueying had been worried about how to get rid of her status as a military commander. When she heard Xu Dalong's words, she felt relieved. Because she believed that no matter what choice she made, the man in front of her could help her realize her wish.
The victory at Goat Slope was achieved and the Japanese attack on the Mawu Mountain base was repelled. Celebrations were also held in the base area.
Wang Sanqiang, captain of the Xiaqiuzi village militia in Ping'an County, received a notice from the county brigade, asking him to represent the village militia at the commendation meeting held by the Mawushan guerrillas. This time, the Xiaqiuzi village army used the tunnels to severely attack the Japanese invaders and won the victory. A major victory. They made everyone in the village look good, and the leaders of the district also felt very honored.
After receiving the notice, the district leaders came to pick up Wang Sanqiang and came to Guancheng County.
This morning, under the auspices of Zhao Gang, a victory celebration meeting for the anti-mopping up in the Mawushan Base was held on the playground of the No. 1 Middle School in the county.
The officers and soldiers of the Mawushan guerrillas, the New 1st Brigade, the 2nd New Brigade and the Independent Brigade who participated in the battle at Goat Slope were commended, as well as the heroic and model representatives of the county brigade and basic militia who fought off the Japanese raids.
Wang Sanqiang, the militia captain of Qiuzi Village, stood on the podium. The beautiful female guerrilla soldier put a big red flower on his head. As a representative of the basic militia, he made a speech at the conference. It was really glorious.
