The brothers sent out to reconnoiter the route all returned within a few days and reported the situation in detail. Yu Chenglong made specific arrangements after discussing with Commander-in-Chief Xiao, Chief of Staff Jin Yunji, and Deputy Commander-in-Chief Fang Zhenzhong.
Yu Chenglong asked Commander Xiao to go out first. Five days later, Yu Chenglong sent someone to contact her in Fujiang County, mainly to ask her to continue to persuade Li Zhongjiang to surrender. At the same time, Chief of Staff Jin was ordered to lead people to build a secret camp, while he and Deputy Commander Fang led the team to prepare to go out to capture Fujiang County.
On the afternoon of the next day after Commander-in-Chief Xiao left, Yu Chenglong and Deputy Commander-in-Chief Fang Zhenzhong took action and set off for Fujiang County. When they came to the mountainside, the team rested for a day and a night and sent people out to explore the road. By the morning of the fifth day, the team had entered hiding near Fujiang County and was on standby.
"Although this Fujiang County is also a plain, it is close to the mountains. There has been no major war for many years, and the Japs' defense is very lax. We moved here secretly from the mountains and did not attract the Japs' attention.
It can be said that this is a surprise attack, and there is a high probability of success. Commander-in-Chief Xiao has secretly instigated the rebellion of the Li Zhongjiang Security Brigade. As long as they do not resist, the few Japs in the county and the police in the police station will not be able to resist.
After we enter the city, we will first destroy the police station, and then help Li Zhongjiang's brigade reorganize and surrender. Pay attention to cutting off the county town's connection with the outside world, seize more supplies and ammunition, and then lead the team to evacuate quickly.
Although it is relatively close to Qiqihar, it takes at least two days for large troops to travel. There is no large Japanese garrison nearby, so even if they want to reinforce, it is too late.
But we still have to be prepared for unexpected situations, send investigators in the direction where the Japanese may reinforce, and monitor closely. Let's make arrangements now and have them set off immediately. We will notify them to return to the team after we succeed.
I plan to take the two of them to Fujiang County first, and you will follow up later and be careful to stay hidden. To successfully capture Fujiang County, surprise is the key, so it is necessary to be absolutely concealed, especially in this plain area, and pay more attention to covert operations. "
Yu Chenglong pointed to the sketch of Fujiang County and its surroundings brought back by Commander Xiao, while explaining to the deputy commander. He especially emphasized that the team must do a good job of concealment when approaching Fujiang County, and not before taking Fujiang County. Reveal any clues.
"Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, I will execute the plan and be cautious. This is the biggest action since the establishment of our team. I will not expose the target easily and ensure that the mission is completed!"
Deputy Commander-in-Chief Fang Zhenzhong firmly assured Yu Chenglong that he knew the great responsibility. After Yu Chenglong left the team, he was the commander of the entire team and must not be careless and affect the progress of the entire campaign.
After hearing Deputy Commander Fang Zhenzhong's pledge, Yu Chenglong felt even more relieved. The reason why he was able to hand over the management of the team to Fang Zhenzhong was entirely out of trust in him. Of course, he also knew that Fang Zhenzhong could manage the team well.
After everything was arranged, Yu Chenglong took the two of them to Li Zhongjiang in person to meet Commander Xiao and Li Zhongjiang. Because Xiao Sanyi had arrived a few days in advance and nothing unexpected happened, Yu Chenglong came to Li Zhongjiang's headquarters with peace of mind.
"This is our commander-in-chief Yu Chenglong, and this is Captain Li." Commander Xiao introduced the two of them affectionately: "I have already talked with Captain Li, and he agreed to raise troops to resist Japan and cooperate with us to capture Fujiang County. Eliminate the police station and the Japanese instructors, and then come with us into the mountains."
"Captain Li has a deep understanding of justice and abandons darkness to the light. I admire Jackie Chan and welcome him on behalf of the Holy Path National Salvation Army! From now on, we will work together to resist Japan and save the country, regain our homeland, and fulfill our responsibilities for the Chinese nation."
Yu Chenglong held Li Zhongjiang's hand tightly with a sincere smile on his face. He was happy that Li Zhongjiang could abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side. Especially when the current situation is relatively stable, it is very rare for Li Zhongjiang to choose to resist Japan again.
As the captain of the Fujiang County Garrison Brigade, it can be said that he holds great power and enjoys glory and wealth. Being able to resolutely abandon these and turn to the thorny road of anti-Manchu anti-Japanese requires both courage and valuable character. and high spirit.
"The name of Dragon Crossing the River has always been familiar to me. When I saw you today, you turned out to be heroic and heroic. I am truly honored to be able to work with you! Come on, Commander-in-Chief, please come in and sit down. Let's talk slowly."
Li Zhongjiang motioned for Yu Chenglong to come into the room to talk. He felt that Yu Chenglong looked up to him by coming in person, and he should welcome him warmly. This northern man, who looks dark and rosy, has courage and justice on his face.
"There are no outsiders here, so don't enter the house. If you stay for a long time, the news will easily leak out. Since you and Commander Xiao have already reached an agreement, just do what you agreed on. Without further delay, start taking action immediately!"
Yu Chenglong had no intention of entering Li Zhongjiang's headquarters. He felt that time was urgent and he should start taking action immediately to avoid long nights and nightmares. After all, this was a county occupied by the Japanese. He should not be careless and must fight quickly.
"Well, our opinion is that after our team arrives, our people will deal with the dozen or so Japanese instructors first, and Captain Li's people will deal with the police station. Then the two teams will be united. , transport all the military supplies in the city into the mountains."
Commander Xiao Dongxue told Yu Chenglong the action plan she discussed with Captain Li Zhongjiang, but Yu Chenglong did not immediately answer whether their plan was feasible. Instead, he asked the Japanese instructor where he lived. It seemed that he had his own plans.
"Where do the Japanese live? What are they doing at this time?"
"I just finished lunch and are sleeping. I have sent people to monitor them in a courtyard not far from here."
Captain Li Zhongjiang immediately answered Yu Chenglong's question. He had already admired Jackie Chan for a long time. This meeting made him feel more extraordinary and admired him even more. It also strengthened his determination to hold high the anti-Japanese banner with Yu Chenglong. .
"It's easy to handle a dozen or so people. Commander Xiao and I can get rid of them. Those in the police station don't need to bother Captain Li's people. Just let our people go. You can send people to greet our team now." Enter the city, let’s take action immediately!”
Yu Chenglong told Li Zhongjiang his plan. Of course, his attitude was in a discussion tone. He said that there was no need to trouble Li Zhongjiang's brothers first, so as to alleviate some of the brothers' worries in the future.
Because the capture of Fujiang County was entirely the work of the Holy Path National Salvation Army, Li Zhongjiang's garrison was not directly involved, so it would not attract much resentment from the Japanese and might alleviate some of the worries of the brothers who surrendered.
