Chapter 251
"What's going on? Why haven't you come yet?" Wei Guoqiang looked up at the sun that was obviously tilted outside the window, and turned around and asked Yan Sanquan, "Captain Yan, it's logical that they should have arrived long ago."
"Yes, it should have arrived long ago." Yan Sanquan couldn't hold back his anger.
I took out my pocket watch to check the time. It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon, but Xu Shijiu and the important figures of the Communist Party did not appear. Did something happen? Or did those idiots in the Military Control Commission really succeed? Xu Shijiu was injured or killed? So this meeting has been cancelled?
Wei Guoqiang obviously thought of this and said, "Can the Military Control Commission succeed?"
Yan Sanquan pondered and said nothing. Although he could not rule out this possibility, he still felt that this possibility was not great. Xu Shijiu could really be defeated so easily. Wei Guoqiang had already defeated him last time. How could Xu Shijiu survive to this day? But if this was not the case, how could he explain that Xu Shijiu had not arrived for a long time?
Wei Guoqiang said again: "Captain Yan, why don't you send a few people out to touch the situation?"
"No." Yan Sanquan refused flatly, "Do you want to kill us all?"
Although Xu Shijiu has not appeared for a long time, the village's guard post and patrol team did not withdraw. At this time, people were sent out to inquire about the situation. If they were discovered by the alert southern Anhui Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, everyone hiding here would have to be finished.
Three punches are absolutely not the same as being stupid as being alert to the snake.
"Wait, wait here honestly." Yan Sanquan said.
Wei Guoqiang had no choice but to sit aside and smoke silently.
However, until the end of Yan Sanquan, they did not wait for Xu Shijiu.
After all the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in Chitu Village withdrew, Yan Sanquan and others dared to leave the hiding courtyard and come outside to inspect. Then they found that Xu Shijiu had temporarily changed the meeting location to the mountain god temple outside the village. Yan Sanquan was depressed and couldn't help but feel a little lucky.
Although he was unable to kill Xu Shijiu this time, at least he was still alive.
If Xu Shijiu was still meeting the Communist Party in the Wang family compound, and they did take advantage of Xu Shijiu's relaxation to kill him, then they would probably find it difficult for them to escape the pursuit of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui, especially the elite small army, which was simply a urging the King of Hell to kill him.

Gu Zhutong finally didn't wait for the good news he wanted.
The ace killer sent by the Military Control Commission to Longkou, Lin Huai's troops who shot and killed the traitor Zhang Xiaolin three times in a row, were eventually trapped under Xu Shijiu. Not only did he fail to kill Xu Shijiu, but Xu Shijiu was also put into prison. The only thing that is thankful is that Xu Shijiu Nian was an anti-Japanese patriot, so he did not kill anyone.
As Lin Huai's assassination failed, Gu Zhutong's intention was once again lost.
There was even more unfavorable news that made Gu Zhu unable to sleep or eat. After the meeting in the terrain, Xu Shijiu did not turn against the Communist Party. The two sides even reached an agreement and decided to form a joint command center and hand over the New Fourth Army's Southern Anhui Detachment and the Third Detachment of Jiangbei to Xu Shijiu.
Gu Zhutong had to worry. If he told Xu Shijiu at this time, the matter of restoring the 19th Army system was shelved for some reason, would Xu Shijiu be furious? Then he turned to the CCP completely? He even led his troops directly into the Communist camp?
The more Gu Zhutong thought about it, the more he felt that this possibility was very high, so he sent a telegram to Chongqing.
However, what disappointed Gu Zhutong was that Chairman Jiang not only refused to support him after receiving his telegram, but even called back to scold him. Finally, he said that the restoration of the 19th Army system would never be discussed, so Gu Zhutong could only end this thought.

When he walked to the door of Xu Shijiu's office, Li Zihan hesitated again.
Li Zihan really didn't know how to open this question, so he told Xu Shijiu.
In fact, Li Zihan knew from the beginning that it was really unlikely to restore the 19th Army system. Gu Zhutong might have such a thought, but Chairman Jiang would never agree. Chairman Jiang could tolerate betrayal from others, but he would never tolerate betrayal from the people he trusted most or the army. For example, Zhang Xiaoliu, such as the 19th Route Army, Chairman Jiang would never forgive.
Therefore, Gu Zhutong's desire to restore the 19th Army was simply a delusion.
However, Li Zihan really didn't want Xu Shijiu to completely turn to the Communist Party, and even directly brought the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui to join the Communist camp. So even though he knew that it would be impossible for the restoration of the 19th Army to be true, Li Zihan still came over to talk to Xu Shijiu.
Li Zihan did not expect Xu Shijiu to return to the battle sequence of the army with his army, but at least, he could not lead his troops to join the Communist Party. Li Zihan was not even willing to face Shu Tongwen on the battlefield. As for facing Xu Shijiu on the battlefield, he could not imagine it.
"Zihan, are you standing outside the door? Why don't you go in?"
It happened that Gao Shenxing came to chat with Xu Shijiu. Seeing Li Zihan standing outside Xu Shijiu's office door, he couldn't help but ask.
Because of different political views, Gao Shenxing and Li Zihan often quarrel, and every time they quarrel, they quarrel fiercely, and they look like they want to cut off their robes and break off their relationship. But every time they quarrel, they immediately become like nothing happened. To put it bluntly, they are brothers of life and death who share life and death.
These two people are like split personality. When they do not involve political stances, they are brothers who depend on life and death. However, once they involve political stances, they will immediately become enemies.
Li Zihan was shouted out by Gao Shenxing and walked in.
When the two walked into the office, they found Xu Shijiu standing in front of the window with their hands behind their backs, looking at the yard outside in a daze. Xu Shijiu rarely stared at daze, but every time he showed such an expression, it meant that he had encountered a big thing, and it was a great thing.
Xu Shijiu didn't even look back and greeted Gao Shenxing and Li Zihan.
Li Zihan really didn't want to talk about this, but he knew that avoiding it was not a solution. He immediately gritted his teeth and stood at Xu Shijiu, saluted, and said: "Captain, there is something I must report to you. The matter of restoring the establishment of the 19th Army has been shelved by the Military Commission."
Xu Shijiu turned around and looked at Li Zihan steadily, but said nothing.
Gao Shenxing said, and put on his face with the expression I knew for a long time, saying, "Old Xu, now you should believe what I said, right? I said, even if Gu Zhutong had this idea, Jiang Guangtou would never agree. Now I really got it right?"
"Old Gao, the Military Commission has only put it aside for the time being, and has not said to put it aside forever." Li Zihan couldn't help but refute. However, even himself, he felt that the refutation sounded very powerless, and even without any persuasion. The temporary refutation was just a matter of his words.
Gao Shenxing did not pursue him this time and ridiculed Li Zihan to death.
Because, no matter what, Xu Shijiu did not have a quarrel with the Communist Party this time.
Li Zihan was extremely worried. He looked at Xu Shijiu nervously, fearing that Xu Shijiu would be furious, and then in anger, he made the most worrying decision and defected to the Communist Party.
However, what surprised Li Zihan was that Xu Shijiu's expression seemed very calm after hearing this, and there was no sign of anger.
Gao Shenxing also discovered Xu Shijiu's abnormality and asked: "Old Xu, what's wrong with you?"
"Liu Changlin said something to me before leaving." Xu Shijiu answered the question irrelevantly, and then continued to ask Gao Shenxing. Li Zihan said, "Do you want to know what he said to me?"
"What did he tell you?" Gao Shenxing asked with a frown.
"He said that he would come back to Longkou again." Xu Shijiu said.
"What?" Li Zihan said sternly, "He dares to threaten you, Captain?"
"Old Xu, do you pay attention to that mad dog?" Gao Shenxing curled his lips and said disapprovingly, "He hasn't even explained his own problems clearly. Whether he can pass the organizational review when he goes back is a problem. He still wants to go back to the dragon's mouth again, it's simply a toad swallowing the sky."
Xu Shijiu turned around and looked at Gao Shenxing with a strange look.
Gao Shenxing was confused by Xu Shijiu's sight and frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Did I say the wrong thing?"
