The boss then called Xu Dalong and said that Xu Dalong could keep half of the property seized from Ma Hansan.
Xu Dalong has always been particular about what he does, and he gave most of the property that his boss had entrusted to Ma Hansan intact to his boss. As for the belongings of Mahan and his family, he accepted them without any courtesy.
To be honest, this incident made Xu Dalong feel a little guilty. Historically, the boss's death was directly related to Ma Hansan. Now that Ma Hansan has been killed early, the boss's fate will also change accordingly. If the boss cannot die unexpectedly like in history, it will never be a good thing for the underground party. However, the matter has come to this, and what will happen in the future can only be discussed in the future.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Dalong's vacation is coming to an end. He hosted a banquet in Chongqing for all his connections, said goodbye to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and took Lin Xueying on his way home.
Xu Dalong, Lin Xueying and others first came to the Zhongtiao Mountain headquarters and paid a visit to General Fu.
When Xu Dalong left Chongqing, General Fu's old friends also asked Xu Dalong to bring them their gifts for General Fu, and asked Xu Dalong to say hello to General Fu.
Xu Dalong told General Fu that General Wang had sent people to raid the Chuanjiang Trading Company and that the Central Government had made concessions.
General Fu laughed loudly and said: "Well done! I don't like the spies of the military commander and the central commander, especially the gang of central commanders. They know how to harm their own people without doing anything, so this is how to deal with them. .”
Xu Dalong also used this excuse to give General Fu 20 large yellow croakers to express his gratitude.
General Fu did not refuse. He said excitedly: "Brother Dalong, I have already sent people to implement what you said before leaving for Chongqing. Don't you want to go to Suiyuan to get war horses? I will send troops to follow You act together.”
Xu Dalong was very happy and said: "I will go back to the Mawushan base first, and then bring the troops over and head to Suiyuan together."
General Fu hosted a banquet in honor of Xu Dalong, Lin Xueying, and Monk Wei. After the banquet, he called Mr. He, the director of the Reconnaissance Division of the Zhongtiao Mountain Headquarters, to introduce the situation of their reconnaissance to Xu Dalong and Wei Dayong, so that Xu Dalong and others had an idea. Basic understanding.
Xu Dalong and the others rested one night at the Zhongtiao Mountain headquarters, and took a transport plane back to the Mawushan Military Division the next day.
Hearing that Xu Dalong was back, Zhang Wanhe rushed over specially. After meeting Xu Dalong, he first expressed his attitude, saying that he was here specially to treat guests, that he must be the host this time, and that he would fight with whoever wanted to rob him.
He actually booked a banquet at the largest restaurant in the county to welcome Xu Dalong.
For a long time, Xu Dalong has been performing tasks outside, and all the money he earned has been spent on the newly established base, and much less has been handed over to Zhang Wanhe. He is very depressed about this.
This time Li Qiulin and the others got a large amount of property back from Peiping, one-third of which was kept at the military region headquarters, one-third was given to the military division, and one-third was handed over to the logistics department.
Zhang Wanhe knew that this property was also in Xu Dalong's favor, and he was in a good mood, so he ran over to express his gratitude.
Naturally, Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, Zhang Dabiao, Sun Desheng and Wang Chengzhu attended the banquet. At the banquet, everyone was in high spirits, chatting and laughing. Only Sun Desheng felt unhappy.
It's no wonder that all the cavalry brigades he had worked so hard to build over the years were turned into infantry. How could this make him feel so embarrassed? In particular, Li Yunlong still treats him as a cavalryman, and will not arrange for some cavalry to participate in the combat missions carried out by the Mawushan Military Division. He felt left out. In his own words, a fallen phoenix is worse than a chicken, and depression is inevitable.
Of course Xu Dalong understood his mood and said: "I just came from Zhongtiao Mountain. General Fu has sent people to inquire about the situation in Suiyuan. We will go to Suiyuan in two days. There are many good horses there. How much did we lose? This time I’ll get it back in double the amount.”
After listening to Xu Dalonglong's words, Sun Desheng's eyes suddenly lit up and he hurriedly said: "Seriously, what the captain said? We, the old Sun, have been waiting for your words. Come, I, the old sun, offer you a drink, and do it first as a token of respect." Just drink the wine in the cup.
Seeing that Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and others were all paying attention, Xu Dalong announced his plans to go to Suiyuan.
Everyone expressed support, and everyone discussed this matter with each other.
Zhang Wanhe couldn't get in the middle of these matters. He said with some embarrassment: "You guys, if you want to discuss the war, go back and discuss it after you finish drinking. This time, we, Mr. Zhang, are treating us. Just drink now, don't talk about it." Work."
Li Yunlong smiled and said: "Haha, look at how stingy you are. But you are right, we don't talk about work, we just drink. Since it is your treat today, I will drink more so that you can make a fortune and make you Drink until you are a pauper."
Zhang Wanhe said with a smile: "Even if you drink it openly, the worst is that I will eat pickles for three months. This time the wine will definitely be enough."
Everyone was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very lively.
After returning to the military division headquarters, Xu Dalong sent telegrams to Chu Yunfei, commander of the 358th Division, and Ma Zhenyu, commander of the Daqingshan Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Column, requesting them for support. They telegraphed back quickly and said there was no problem.
Chu Yunfei's 358th Division was stationed only dozens of kilometers away from the Mawushan Military Division Headquarters. The next morning, Chu Yunfei personally led the guard battalion and escorted 500 horses to Xu Dalong.
Xu Dalong borrowed these horses from Chu Yunfei, saying that he would return them to him after he went to Suiyuan this time.
Sun Desheng was worried about his horses, so he got 500 horses at once. Although he could not return to the original level of the cavalry brigade, it was a comfort to some extent. He and the officers and soldiers of the cavalry brigade happily received these horses.
Chu Yunfei knew that Xu Dalong went to Chongqing, and he would definitely go to his sister Chu Yun'er. He came here specially to Xu Dalong to inquire about his sister.
Xu Dalong accompanied Chu Yunfei to his office, took out the family letter written by Chu Yun'er, and handed it to Chu Yunfei.
In the letter, Chu Yun'er said that she was doing well in all aspects in Guanglong County and asked her parents and brother to rest assured.
Xu Dalong took out another suitcase and handed it to Chu Yunfei, saying that it was for Chu Yun'er to subsidize the family.
Chu Yunfei opened the box and saw 50 large yellow croakers and 200,000 French currency inside. Chu Yunfei collected them and prepared to give them to his parents when he returned home.
At noon, Xu Dalong held a banquet. Accompanied by Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, and Zhang Dabiao, Chu Yunfei was given a banquet.
Everyone is old friends with each other, drinking happily and the atmosphere is very harmonious.
Li Yunlong looked at Chu Yunfei's brand new general uniform and said with a smile: "Brother Yunfei, you are getting more and more prosperous now. The 358th Brigade was expanded into a division and became a lieutenant general and division commander. This outfit looks good. "
Chu Yunfei is a person who pays attention to appearance. At all times, his military uniform is straight.
He was now satisfied with his status. After hearing what Li Yunlong said, he straightened his already straight back and said, "Brother Yunlong, you are also very powerful. From the time when you were the leader of the Independent Regiment, you have become He became the commanding officer of the Mawushan Military Division with strong troops and horses. If your Eighth Route Army also awards honors, at least it can be given to a lieutenant general."
Li Yunlong is also very satisfied with the development achievements of Mawushan Military Division over the years.
He smiled and said: "There is no comparison with the 358th Division. Our Eighth Route Army officers and soldiers are all treated the same. Those with any military rank or no rank are useless."
Chu Yunfei has another purpose for coming here this time, which is to go to the Dahushan Military Division Arsenal to purchase some weapons and ammunition. The weapons and equipment of the Mawushan Military Division are unique and much more advanced than the equipment of the Jinsui Army. .
Chu Yunfei provided great help to the development of the Mawushan Military Division, and the relationship between the two parties has always been very good. Zhao Gang readily agreed to Chu Yunfei's request and offered Chu Yunfei a factory price, but he did not Responsible for the transportation, let Chu Yunfei send troops to transport it back himself.
Chu Yunfei was very satisfied and expressed his gratitude to Zhao Gang.
Zhao Gang was very interested. He said that the Mawushan Military Division had developed a 107mm rocket launcher. Chu Yunfei happened to come over and invited him to visit the test firing.
After everyone finished drinking, they drove to the testing site of the arsenal.
Parked at the test site is a 107mm rocket launcher modified from a military truck. On the truck's cabin, a rocket launcher is installed. The launcher has two rows, upper and lower, with 19 steel pipes. It can launch 19 rockets at a time. bomb.
Xu Dalong, Li Yunlong, Chu Yunfei and others, accompanied by technicians from the arsenal, visited the rocket launcher and rocket launchers, listened to the technicians' explanations, and then watched actual combat drills.
While everyone was listening to the report, the technicians had loaded the rocket into the barrel on the launcher, and then reported to Zhao Gang that everything was ready and asked for permission to start launching.
As soon as Zhao gave the order to launch, the technician pressed the launch button. The rockets are electronically controlled. After the power is turned on, they are all launched in just a few seconds.
The arsenal has prepared an artillery scope for each of Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei. Through the artillery mirror, everyone saw continuous explosions on the mountain 6 kilometers away, followed by thick smoke.
When the smoke cleared, you could see that the vegetation on the hillside had been blown away, exposing the white rocks below.
Everyone felt very excited.
Chu Yunfei praised sincerely: "Brother Dalong, Brother Yunlong, Brother Zhao, and Brother Zhang, this rocket launcher is too powerful and is very suitable for attacking cluster targets. If ten rocket launchers can be fired at the same time, I can see that Can kill an infantry brigade of Japanese soldiers."
Everyone was very excited, except Zhao Gang who looked distressed.
He said: "The power of rocket launchers is indeed great, but unfortunately the shells are too expensive and cannot be used."
Zhao Gang was right. The rocket launcher was indeed very satisfying when it fired rockets, and it could deal a heavy blow to the enemy. Unfortunately, those rockets were all paid for by the white ocean. With one volley, thousands of oceans were gone.
Chu Yunfei said: "That's worth it. The critical moment can determine the victory on the battlefield. As long as you can win the battle, spending a little money is nothing."
Speaking of this, he said with some expectation: "Brother Zhao, Brother Yunlong, can you sell me part of this rocket launcher? The price is easy to negotiate."
The relationship between Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei was already very good. He knew that the relationship between Xu Dalong and Chu Yunfei was even closer. The rocket launcher would definitely be equipped to Chu Yunfei. Li Yunlong said happily: "No problem. This batch will go first The equipment will be given to our military division, and the next batch will be considered for the 358th Division."
Xu Dalong asked the arsenal to prepare two rocket launchers and two basic rockets for him. He would take them to Suiyuan in two days.
Three days later, Xu Dalong, Sun Desheng, and Wei Dayong led the Mawushan Military Division's rapid mobile detachment and special operations brigade to the Zhongtiao Mountain headquarters.
General Fu was ready. According to Xu Dalong's request, he lent him 600 war horses, and sent Li Zhendong, commander of the 137th Division, and He Shaogong, director of the Reconnaissance Department, to lead a reinforced regiment and follow Xu Dalong in transport vehicles to make it clear It said that during the execution of the mission, Xu Dalong was under unified command.
Xu Dalong and others stayed in Zhongtiao Mountain for a day, then joined forces with the reinforced regiment led by Li Zhendong and headed north together.
On the way, two senior brothers, Li Zhendong and Wei Dayong, rode in the same car, chatting and laughing, and were very affectionate.
The coalition troops led by Xu Dalong and Li Zhendong had more than 10,000 troops, a large number of chariots, thousands of horses, and more than a hundred vehicles of various types, forming a mighty team with an astonishing momentum. On the way from Zhongtiao Mountain to Datong, they had to pass through more than 60 kilometers of enemy-occupied areas. When the Japanese and puppet troops saw such a large anti-Japanese armed force approaching, they fled one after another. No one dared to stroke the tiger's beard.
Now Datong is under the control of the Daqingshan Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Column. Ma Zhenyu and the leaders of the column came to welcome the coalition troops, arranged food and accommodation for the coalition troops, and hosted a banquet in honor of Xu Dalong and others.
At the banquet, Ma Zhenyu said: "Brother Dalong, after receiving your telegram, we have also prepared 600 war horses for you. We have discussed it and want to send troops to act with you. Don't worry, we can also organize it. Hundreds of trucks transporting a reinforced group will ensure that they will not hold you back."
When saying this, Ma Zhenyu and the leaders of the column also looked proud. Nowadays, they are not as impoverished as they were back then. Their base area already controls more than a dozen counties and important cities like Datong. They have a lot of resources in their hands, and it is very convenient to organize a fleet. The scope of the guerrilla column's activities is at the junction of Suiyuan and Shanxi. Among their troops, there are many Suiyuan soldiers, which will be of great help in entering Suiyuan operations.
Xu Dalong readily agreed and agreed to share the benefits gained from going to Suiyuan 30/70.
Ma Zhenyu knew Xu Dalong very well. He knew that he was generous and never suffered losses when he went to fight. He also knew that Xu Dalong went to Suiyuan this time mainly for the war horses. The Daqingshan Guerrilla Column also needs a large number of war horses, and they and their troops also want to get a share of the pie.
Seeing that Xu Dalong agreed to their request, Ma Zhenyu and others were also very happy and toasted to Xu Dalong one after another. (End of chapter)
