Chapter 59 Friction (2)

"Is that right?" Liang sneered boldly, slapped his mouth to both sides, and said, "You might as well look at both sides first."

Liu Changqing turned his head and looked at both sides of the valley with some ignorance. When he saw it, his face changed. It turned out that he was talking. A large number of figures had appeared on the ridges on both sides of the valley, and machine guns had been set up on several commanding heights. Liu Changqing estimated that there were at least five or six hundred people, and there was a battalion.

Although Liu Changqing's face changed, he had no fear in his heart. He said coldly: "Is it planning to provoke friction on his own initiative?"

"My goodness, this is really a bit of a verbal word. Both positive and negative are just right." Liang Dada said boldly, "You only say it is the national army, but you refuse to report the number. Who knows whether you are true or false? Even if it is the national army, you suddenly ran to our defense zone and pointed the gun at friendly forces. How dare you say that we took the initiative to provoke friction?

Liu Changqing said: "We have said it a long time ago, just passing by, passing by."

Liu Dadan also said: "You said that passing by is passing by, and I also said that you were taking the opportunity to spy on it."

At this time, the Japanese army's frontal battlefield offensive gradually stopped. In addition to Okamura's ll army, the ll army of Okamura was also maintaining an offensive against Xue Yue's ninth war zone. In other directions, the Japanese army took the initiative to move into defense. With military defense, the Japanese army's political inducement of surrender also began to exert efforts. In North China, a large number of national troops were gradually surrendering to Japan.

Local generals like Shi Yousan, Sun Liangcheng, and Pang Bingxun, who fought with the Japanese in Shandong and Henan, all led their troops to defect to the Japanese. Whether you call them traitors or say they are selfish, the war is like this, much crueler and ugly than you imagined.

Although the Central Army rarely surrendered to the enemy, it turned its main focus to the level of preventing the Communist Party. In the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region, the Shanxi-Cha-Hebei Base Area, the Central Shandong Base Area, and southern Anhui, there have been signs of anti-communist signs. Qin Qirong, Zhang Yinwu and other troops launched attacks on the Eighth Route Army militia units and rear organs, killing thousands of people.

It is hard to say that these incidents were not instructed by Chairman Jiang, at least they were his default.

Chairman Jiang has always regarded the Communist Party as a major concern, especially Mao Zedong as his lifelong enemy. After reading Mao Zedong's "Qinyuanchun·Changsha", Chairman Jiang once said to Chen Cheng with emotion that he could write a poem like "Ask the vast earth, who is the ups and downs?", who is definitely a person with a heart of the world. Such a person is like Liu Bei. There is nothing to do without giving him space to play, but once he is given the space and opportunity to play, he will definitely become a strong enemy.

Therefore, after the September 18th Incident broke out, Chairman Chiang would rather bear the reputation of cede land and seeking peace, and insisted on "to calm the country first when fighting foreign countries, and to destroy the Red Army first, because he always believed that the threat from Mao Zedong and the Red Army was greater than that of the Japanese army. The subsequent evolution of historical facts also proved Chairman Chiang's political vision to a certain extent.

Back to the point, although the National Government has more than half a year left before the first anti-communist wave was launched, frictions have occurred in various regions. On the part of the Communist Party, Mao Zedong also made an important speech in Yan'an, instructing the Eighth Route Army that the New Fourth Army is reasonable, well-founded and conservative, and will resolutely fight back against military provocations.

In such a large climate, it is indeed easy for Li Zihan to lead his troops through the defense zone of the Qingyang County Guerrilla Corps of the New Fourth Army to cause misunderstandings, and this is indeed not a mistake on Liang Dadan.

Shu Tongwen also firmly stood on Liang's bold position and said to Liu Changqing righteously: "Capital Commander Liu, please tell your regiment commander that our New Fourth Army has never attacked friendly forces. As long as you report your own army number and reveal your true identity, we will naturally let it go after verification. If you refuse to cooperate, then we have reason to doubt your motives. If you insist on forcibly passing, I'm sorry, I can only meet with you."

Liang Dadan turned around and looked at Shu Tongwen with some surprise, thinking to himself, didn’t these white-faced scholars always advocated obeying the united front and the overall situation of the War of Resistance?

As for the previous instructor, the Kuomintang was bullied to the top, and he insisted on tolerating it, which eventually led to a brigade being disbanded. In turn, the instructor became irrational to the Japanese. The guerrillas only had a few guns, but he insisted on going to the Longxugou stronghold, which was stationed in the Japanese. Liang Dadan refused to agree, and he secretly mobilized a company to fight, but he was ambushed by the Japanese. When Liang Dadan led the main force of the guerrillas to support him, the man would have died long ago.

But the white-faced scholar who came this time seemed to be different from the previous two episodes.

Liu Changqing asked Liang Dabingly with a face, "Sir, what do you say?"

Liang Dadan looked at Shu Tongwen and turned around and said, "Didn't you hear what our instructor said just now? If you put down your weapons and cooperate with our verification, we can pass it. If you refuse to cooperate, hehe, then I'm sorry, I can only take over your weapons if I can't say it today."

Shu Tongwen frowned, but did not correct Liang Dabang's misinterpretation of his words.

This is also Liang Dadan's peasant cunning. Liang Dadan has always been like this. He had to think about pulling a few hairs when flying by. Such a group of well-equipped national army passed through his defense zone, and with an ulterior motive, gave the guerrillas an excuse to take action. If Liang Dadan was willing to let go, then he would not be Liang Dadan.

Liu Changqing said coldly: "Sir, can I regard it as your last reply?"

"Nonsense." Liang Dabingly said impatiently, "This is our last reply."

(Split Line)

When Liu Changqing came back and told Li Zihan, the spy company commander Yang Dashu immediately became angry and said angrily: "This group of mud legs really treats themselves as personalities. We still have to put down our weapons for verification? I didn't even urinate and took photos by myself. The little Japanese planes, cannons and tanks failed to let us put down our weapons. With their few broken guns, cannons and tanks, we can't help but give us a good deal?"

After venting a few words, Yang Dashu said to Li Zihan again: "Group, just order it, fight."

Li Zihan turned his attention to Liu Changqing. Because the time was still short, Li Zihan was not very familiar with the abilities of the two generals under him, but Yang Dashu was more reckless and Liu Changqing was more rational. Huang Baitao still said that, so he wanted to hear Liu Changqing's opinions. After all, only he had contacted the guerrillas opposite.

Liu Changqing said: "I think it's better not to fight the ranks. The guerrillas on the opposite side not only have more troops than us, but also have excellent equipment. I have seen several Czech light machine guns just now, and the commanding heights they occupy are also of particular importance, which can build cross-fire power well. Now we are in the valley, and when we fight, we are afraid we will suffer."

Yang Dashu said: "A few machine guns are nothing, I don't believe that a group of mud legs can make a fuss."

Liu Changqing said: "A few machine guns are not scary. The group of guerrillas in front of us are actually nothing. But Company Commander Yang, the purpose of our trip is not to compete for territory with the Communist guerrillas in Qingyang County, but to go to Longkou County to compete with the anti-Japanese and national salvation army in southern Anhui. If you suffer damage here and affect the entire plan, it will be more than worth the loss."

Liu Changqing's words touched Li Zihan. He then put on a military cap on his head, walked out from behind the big stone, and said loudly: "I'll go and meet this Liang Dabang."

"Group, I'll go with you." Yang Dashu stood up.
