Donggou Town battlefield.
Most of the Akiyama detachment has been wiped out, and only a few small remnants are still resisting in various corners of the battlefield. Two main regiments of the Eighty-ninth Army of the National Army and one main regiment of the New Fourth Army plus three militia brigades have begun When cleaning the battlefield, if you encounter a little Japs who can still breathe, you can't help but stab him with a bayonet.
Real war is completely different from what is described in novels or movies and TV shows.
In novels or film and television dramas, the various corps are model armies that abide by the Geneva Convention, even the little devils are no exception. However, in reality, the corps not only kill prisoners, but even harm innocent people. The Japanese did this, the Germans did this, the U.S. Army and the Soviet Red Army also did this.
This battle was fought by two families, the National Army and the New Fourth Army. It is said that the spoils should be half of each family, but in fact, this is impossible. The New Fourth Army cannot give the spoils to the National Army, and the National Army cannot spit out the benefits. Come out, so the final plan is that whoever grabs the loot will get it.
But the spoils on the battlefield are ultimately limited, and conflicts are inevitable.
A young New Fourth Army soldier found a machine gun under the corpses of two Japanese soldiers. Just as he was about to pick it up, a big foot stepped over from the thorn, and stepped on the machine gun held by the young soldier back to the ground. The soldier's palm was pinched, and although it hurt, he refused to let go.
When the little soldier looked up, he found that the person holding the machine gun was a National Army company commander.
"Boy!" the National Army company commander said ferociously, "I discovered this machine gun first, let go."
"Nonsense!" The little warrior turned red with anxiety and said with a flat mouth, "Obviously I discovered it first."
"You said you discovered it first, so you must have discovered it first?" the National Army company commander said very arrogantly, "Who can prove it to you?"
But the little soldier was not afraid and retorted: "Then who can prove it to you?"
The National Army company commander chuckled, turned around and said, "Brothers, tell me who discovered this machine gun first."
A dozen or so National Army veterans who gathered around immediately shouted: "Of course our company commander discovered it first."
"You?! You are bullying people!" the young soldier of the New Fourth Army said anxiously, "I obviously discovered this machine gun."
"Bring it to you!" The National Army company commander was too lazy to talk to the little soldier and bent down to grab the crooked machine gun.
However, the young New Fourth Army soldier refused to let go. The National Army company commander immediately became angry. He raised his right hand and slapped the young New Fourth Army soldier in the face. At this moment, a big hand came out of thin air and struck out. He grabbed the wrist of the National Army company commander, and the company commander's slap could no longer be slapped.
Then a voice sounded: "This is how good your National Army is. Not only do you steal the trophies of our New Fourth Army, but you also beat people! Bully our New Fourth Army and no one is there, or what?"
The National Army company commander looked back, only to find a heroic New Fourth Army soldier in front of him.
This New Fourth Army soldier was none other than Leng Tiefeng, who had changed back into the New Fourth Army uniform.
The company commander of the National Army didn't know Leng Tiefeng, so he said coldly: "Quickly let go, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
How could Leng Tiefeng care about the intimidation of a mere National Army company commander? Then he smiled and said, "You're welcome to show me one?"
After finishing speaking, Leng Tiefeng exerted slight force on his right hand.
The National Army company commander immediately felt that his right wrist was wrapped in a red-hot iron hoop, causing excruciating pain.
However, this small company commander of the National Army was much tougher than their commander. Although he was almost suffocating from the pain, he was still very tough when he opened his mouth. He turned his head and roared: "Brothers, I will destroy him!"
A dozen veterans of the National Army raised their guns in unison and pointed their muzzles at Leng Tiefeng.
Leng Tiefeng was not afraid, and just glanced contemptuously at the more than a dozen aggressive National Army veterans. However, the young soldier of the New Fourth Army was also very brave. He stood up in front of Leng Tiefeng without fear, and then held the Armed with the crooked light machine gun he had just captured, a man faced off with more than a dozen veterans of the National Army.
There were two people on one side, and more than a dozen people on the other side. Although the numbers were very different, the momentum was almost the same.
But soon, the movement here attracted more New Fourth Army and National Army nearby. As a result, more and more New Fourth Army and National Army joined the confrontation. In just ten minutes, the Kuomintang participating in the confrontation There are already more than a hundred soldiers in the army and the New Fourth Army, and the number is still increasing rapidly.
As the number of people increased, the atmosphere became more and more tense.
At this time, once a person loses control of his emotions and shoots in desperation, the situation will immediately get out of control.
Fortunately, such a situation did not occur in the end, because the top leaders of the New Fourth Army and the National Army appeared in time.
Commander Chen Yi and Han Deqin arrived at the confrontation scene almost at the same time and stopped their respective men in time.
Although the situation was under control and no fire broke out, a practical problem faced Chen Yi and Han Delin: how to allocate the large tracts of land they were about to acquire
Intelligence shows that the Japs in Huaiyin City have been evacuated, and Huaiyin has become an empty city. The loot on the battlefield in Donggou Town can be simply distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, but the large tracts of land that are about to be acquired, especially Huaiyin City, But it is no longer possible to distribute according to this method.
In the face of interests, both parties refuse to give in to each other, and quarrels are inevitable, and the quarrels are very fierce.
Han Deqin and Chen Yi were quarreling red-faced, and Xu Rui turned to ask Yu Bican beside him: "Platoon leader Yu, if you were Han Deqin, what would you choose?"
"Of course it's Huaiyin City." Yu Bican said without hesitation, "Huaiyin City is not only an empty city, but also the seat of the regional office. It not only has a large population, but also has many shops. Just collecting taxes is a big income, and the dozen or so people in the periphery There are still Japanese troops stationed in this county, which is not only difficult to exploit, but there is not much oil and water."
After a pause, Yu Bican then continued: "I believe that Commander Chen of your New Fourth Army will definitely choose Huaiyin City instead of the dozen or so surrounding counties."
To this day, Yu Bican still calls you the New Fourth Army.
Xu Rui wasn't angry either, he smiled and said, "How about we make a bet?"
"A bet?" Yu Bican frowned and said, "What kind of bet? What is the bet?"
Xu Rui said: "You bet that Commander Chen will choose Huaiyin City, but I bet that Commander Chen will choose more than a dozen counties in the periphery. Do you dare to make this bet?"
"Why don't you dare?" Yu Bican said, "What about the bet?"
Xu Rui said: "The bet is that the losing party has to do something for the winning party!"
Yu Bican asked again: "No matter what it is? Do you have to agree to murder and arson?"
"Of course not." Xu Rui shook his head and said, "It must be something within his ability, and it must not violate the principles."
"Okay." Yu Bican said simply, "I made the bet!" After a pause, Yu Bican said firmly, "Commander Xu, I will definitely win this bet, but don't worry, I will never make it difficult for you. If you lose, you only need to cook for our guards for two days yourself, or you can clean the boots of each of us."
Zhuanshan Bao next to him was furious when he heard this. He was about to fight Yu Bican, but Xu Rui stopped him.
Xu Rui stopped the furious Zuanshanbao and said to Yu Bican with a smile: "Okay, if I lose, I will cook for you for two days. By the way, my cooking skills are quite good."
"Really?" Yu Bican said with a smile, "Then our guard platoon will be happy."
After a while, Han Deqin and Commander Chen Yi finally ended their quarrel. Commander Chen Yi hurried over with his guards and said to Xu Rui: "Xiao Xu, I gave up the biggest victory in Huaiyin City to Han Deqin. You won't blame me. Me? After all, this battle of Donggou Town was won thanks to you and your Langya Brigade, but I didn’t even ask for your opinion as a great hero, so I just made my own decision and handed over Huaiyin City to It’s Han Deqin.”
Xu Rui quickly said: "Commander Chen is too polite. I just helped you a little. The battle of Donggou Town was mainly fought by your team. There can be no mistake about this."
While talking, Xu Rui looked back at Yu Bican.
Marshal Chen Yi laughed and said, "I knew you wouldn't mind, Xiao Xu."
After a pause, Marshal Chen Yi added: "But next, I'm afraid you Langya can't leave, I'm afraid you have to do us a favor. Yoshizumi Ryosuke, this old devil, has no good intentions and deliberately left Huaiyin behind." We are forced to fight against the National Army in the empty city, but not a single one of the dozen or so surrounding counties will be given up. If we want to liberate these dozen counties, I am afraid we will have to rely on your wolf fangs to do so, so I am afraid you will have to go back a few days later. .”
Xu Rui said cheerfully: "No problem."
Seeing Commander Chen Yi and Commander Xu Rui talking there, Yu Bican's face darkened. It didn't matter if he lost the bet, but from the choices of Commander Han Deqin and Commander Chen Yi, Yu Bican understood a cruel fact. This cruel fact , that is, the senior generals of the National Army only want to get promoted and get rich, while the senior commanders of the Communist Party of China really pretend to be the poor people in their hearts.
As for the reason, it is obvious.
If Commander Chen hadn't pretended to be a common people at heart, and if he wanted to make a fortune, he would never have given up the empty city of Huaiyin to Han Deqin, but left the dozens of surrounding counties guarded by Japanese soldiers to himself. Comparing the two, it particularly confirms what Xu Rui said, China's hope - really lies in Japan!
Such a discovery made Yu Bican a little discouraged and a little disappointed.
When he looked back, Yu Bican found that Chen Yuangui, Wei Xiangyu and more than 20 brothers had the same expression on their faces. Apparently, they had thought of the same problem.
Chen Yuangui suddenly sighed and said, "Platoon leader, do we still need to go back?"
Before Yu Bican could answer, Wei Xiangyu said, "There's no need to go back, right? If we really go back, will we be able to fight back to Taicang in the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse?"
After listening to Wei Xiangyu's words, more than twenty brothers nodded subconsciously. (To be continued.)
