"Jisifier No. 76?" Ye Ruxue's beautiful eyes narrowed and said in a deep voice, "The secret service headquarters of the Wang Puppet Government is located in Shanghai."

Xu Shijiu looked at Huang Baitao and said, "Mr. Huang, now you believe that the one who took action just now is really not ours, right?"

Seeing Huang Baitao nodding, Xu Shijiu continued: "Mr. Huang, you must have heard Xiao Mu's words just now. This group of people was not completely wiped out. One of them ran away. If the old Japanese devils knew that you and I were at a stake, he would probably not miss the perfect opportunity to take advantage of the situation. Therefore, I probably wouldn't have left you too much time."

"Then Commander Xu, what are your opinions?" Huang Baitao spread his hands. He didn't know that there would be no good results if he confronted the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui. He then continued, "It's better to do this. This batch of supplies will be brought back to Jingxian by our army, and then we will discuss a charter. How about it?"

Xu Shijiu smiled, shook his head and said, "I think it's better to transport it back to the dragon mouth."

Huang Baitao frowned and said unhappily: "Commander Xu, if you do this, you may not be able to talk about it again."

Xu Shijiu gradually lost his patience and said, "Mr. Huang, I hope you understand one thing. Our southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army will never take the initiative to raise trouble, but will never be afraid of trouble."

Huang Baitao's face gradually became colder. The bottom lines between the two sides were too far apart. It seemed unnecessary to continue talking, but if we didn't talk, would we take action? Use force to decide the final ownership of this batch of materials? Huang Baitao was a little hesitant. If we really wanted to fight, the 40th Division was not sure of victory. Even if we were sure of victory, Huang Baitao did not want to fight.

But the question is, are there any other options now?

Xu Shijiu and Huang Baitao were at stake in the mouth of the ox head, but Haneda was struggling in Chizhou.

The news that Yan Sanquan sent someone to send back has been delivered. Haneda already knew that the batch of military supplies that the No. 76 of Ji Sifei had been paid ashore in Niutouzui, and also knew that the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui was in a stalemate because of the ownership of the batch of military supplies. For the Japanese army in southern Anhui, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, a good opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

On the surface, the Japanese army's proactive attack may have prompted the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui to quickly reach a compromise with the Third Army, and then join forces to deal with the Japanese army. However, Haneda has enough understanding of Xu Shijiu's character. He knew that Xu Shijiu would never compromise, and Huang Baitao may not dare to compromise under pressure from Gu Zhutong.

As long as both sides do not compromise, the Japanese advance may intensify the conflicts between the two sides and cause them to go to war in full swing.

Of course, the premise is that the Japanese army cannot force them too hard, and they must leave some room for both sides to make Xu Shijiu or Huang Baitao believe that they have the ability to deal with each other before the Japanese army arrives on the battlefield, and then concentrate on their full efforts against the Japanese army.

However, Haneda was still a little hesitant. He was worried that this might be another trap. If Huang Baitao could not withstand the pressure and compromised with Xu Shijiu, and then deliberately put on a tense posture in order to lure himself to take the initiative and then give himself a head-on attack. If this is the case, it would be a big problem.

The only thing that can be assured is that the reinforcements from Jiujiang are less than fifty miles away from Chizhou, and they should be able to arrive at Chizhou City before dawn. Therefore, even if their troops were attacked by the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army and the 5th Army in southern Anhui, and even if they were severely injured, at least Chizhou's safety is guaranteed.

I took out the pocket watch to see the time. The hour hand was already pointing at two o'clock in the morning. In the past, the old Japanese devil in Haneda had already gone to bed. As a professional soldier, he had to abide by strict schedules unless he was on the battlefield. However, tonight, the bullshit schedule had already been thrown out by Haneda.

Go or not? You have to go as early as possible, and you can't hesitate anymore. Otherwise, even if the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui really fought with Huang Baitao's army, by the time he arrived with the main force of the Japanese army in Chizhou, the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui had already gone away with supplies. In Haneda's heart, he would never think that Huang Baitao's army could defeat the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui.

"Your Excellency Colonel, Your Excellency Colonel..." Yan Sanquan suddenly stumbled in.

"Yansang?" Haneda was stunned and asked in surprise, "Why are you back?"

"Colonel, good opportunity, great opportunity, great opportunity," Yan Sanquan shook his hand and said gasping, "The Southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army is confronting Huang Baitao's 25th Army, and it is about to start fighting. Colonel, if the Imperial Army drives over at this time, they can add another fire. They must fight, and the Imperial Army will be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman."

Haneda's eyes lit up and he asked anxiously: "Yansang, what you said is true, isn't it a trap?"

"No." Yan Sanquan said confidently, "It's definitely not a trap."

"Yo Xi." Haneda nodded happily and finally made up her mind.

(Split Line)

The two sides were unable to reach an agreement for a long time, so the negotiations did not continue.

However, neither Huang Baitao nor Xu Shijiu meant to give in.

Seeing that the situation was a bit stiff, Chen Shizhang called Huang Baitao to the side of the drying yard using the excuse of going to the toilet. There was a mill here that could block Xu Shijiu and the others' vision and said, "Military, who are you here?"

When Huang Baitao looked back, he saw the lazy man who had left in the morning walking out of the mill.

"Lan man..." When Huang Baitao wanted to say hello, he was stopped by the lazy man with a gesture and pointed his finger at the opposite side.

When the lazy man approached, Huang Baitao lowered his voice and asked, "Mr. Lazy man, are you not going to Chizhou? Why are you back again? What happened?"

The lazy man waved his hand and said, "Mr. Huang, let's not talk about me for now. Do you know that you are in danger?"

Huang Baitao looked shaking when he heard this and asked in a deep voice: "Mr. Lazy, what do you mean? What danger?"

The lazy man said: "Mr. Huang, do you really believe that Xu Shijiu will only bring his guard to negotiate with you?"

Huang Baitao: "I never believe in other people's verbal promises, but I believe in my own judgment. Even if Xu Shijiu wants to mobilize troops to Niu Tou, it is probably not easy. His 1st regiment is trapped in Tongling, the 3rd regiment, the 4th regiment is trapped in Chizhou, and the 1st regiment is dragged in Longkou's lair. What other power can he have beside him except for a guard battalion and a cavalry battalion?"

"Mr. Huang, you are too underestimating the combat effectiveness of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui." The lazy man shook his head and said, "Do you know why I had to come back? Because on the way, we met the main force of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui. They were advancing rapidly towards Niu Touzui. From the perspective of force, there was at least one regiment."

"What did you say?" Huang Baitao said in a lost voice, "A group is moving in from Chizhou to Niu Touzui?"

"This is impossible." Chen Shizhang also shouted, "Isn't the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui fighting fiercely with the Japanese army in Chizhou? How could it be that it could withdraw from the battle so quickly? Is the little Japanese dead?"

This completely subverted Huang Baitao and Chen Shizhang's perception of the battle. How could the army that was entangled together and fought desperately easily leave the battle? Could it be that the other party was dead and did not know how to seize the opportunity to pursue it relentlessly? Especially the Japanese are extremely cruel, would they miss such an opportunity?

"I don't know what's going on, but it's the truth." The lazy man shook his head and said.

The lazy man did meet the 4th Niu Yutang Regiment, who had just withdrawn from the battlefield in Chizhou halfway. In order to avoid the 4th Niu Yutang's Regiment, the lazy man had to walk the path, so he was so late than Xu Shijiu before he rushed back to Niu Tou's mouth. Otherwise, the lazy man believed that Xu Shijiu had fallen at his gun.

"Mr. Huang, I have a worse judgment. The battle in Tongling is likely to be over." said the lazy man.

This was a lazy guess from nothing. However, unfortunately, this guy guessed that the battle in Tongling County was indeed over. In addition to leaving a battalion to clean up the battlefield and cooperating with the civilian team organized by the Tongling County Committee of the Communist Party of China to transport supplies to Yanke, the other two battalions had rushed towards Niu Touzui overnight.

Huang Baitao's face suddenly became gloomy. The four infantry regiments of the Southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army were all full of main groups, especially Li Zihan's L's regiment, which was the main force among the main forces, with a force of more than 3,000. In contrast, although Chen Shizhang's 40th Division was nominally a division, the total force was only more than 6,000.
