Lost and Spy

Chapter 524 Guerrilla Arms
"Director Meng!"

When she finally saw Meng Shaoyuan, Zhu Yanni finally let go of her heart.

"Godfather!"

Fan Zhenbang rushed over, and when he saw Meng Shaoyuan, he immediately knelt down on the ground and kowtowed three times.

"What to do, get up."

Meng Shaoyuan hurriedly asked him to get up: "They are all guerrillas, so what's the point of kowtowing? Kowtow when you want to kowtow during the Chinese New Year."

In order to help herself, Zhu Yanni mobilized all the people who could be mobilized.

A whole half of the detachment, about fifty people.

However, in order to ensure the safety of Meng Shaoyuan, the target person of this mission, except Fan Zhenbang, Zhu Yanni did not tell anyone.

Even when she came to see Meng Shaoyuan, Zhu Yanni only brought Fan Zhenbang by her side.

He called out "Director Meng", which sounded a little strange.

The relationship between Zhu Yanni and Meng Shaoyuan is no longer the relationship between superiors and subordinates in the past. They haven't seen each other for more than two months, and they are still a little awkward with each other.

Thinking of what happened that night, Zhu Yanni couldn't help but blush.

"Godfather, dry... Captain of the detachment, I'll help you watch." Fan Zhenbang was a smart ghost, and ran away as soon as he turned around.

Meng Shaoyuan looked at Zhu Yanni's stomach with teary eyes.You said what is going on, the "good news" from Chongqing has not come, and Zhu Yanni's stomach has not moved at all.

Could it be that some functions were destroyed because of his time travel?

God, don't make this joke with yourself.

"What are you looking at there?" Zhu Yanni gave him a blank look: "Without your...kind...you go to Chongqing and stay with that Generalissimo every day, maybe he will have your young master Meng's little girl in his belly." Where is the young master?"

"I'm wronged." Meng Shaoyuan never blinked his eyes when he told a lie: "I went to Chongqing to report on work and suppress bandits, so how could I have time to be with some generalissimo?"

It's a pity that Zhu Yanni is not as naive as Ma Naizi, it's a ghost to believe his words.

Meng Shaoyuan always had an ominous premonition, Zhu Yanni, Shang Qianyi, and that real naiko, what should he do if the three of them get together someday?
Forget it, forget it, don't think about it, just live every day.

Worried that Zhu Yanni would continue to ask questions, she quickly changed the subject: "Have you been active around Nanjing?"

"Well, otherwise, how can I come to save you, Young Master Meng?" Zhu Yanni also became serious: "The situation is getting worse and worse. Originally, there were connections with several teams in Nanjing, but in order to avenge Qilu, these few The squadron has all lurked into Nanjing City, and now we are isolated and helpless, if you contact us a few days later, I am ready to take the team to transfer."

"Do you have a goal?"

"Yes, either go to Taihu Lake to join the guerrillas, or go to the Jurong and Maoshan areas. After our soldiers broke through, they organized strong men and guerrillas there, and their development was quite fast."

Although the Battle of Nanjing failed, many soldiers of the national army broke through the encirclement.

At that time, the situation of the breakout troops was still very dangerous.They are alone, with no backup, and it is difficult to last.Under such circumstances, they relied on the local township chief to mobilize strong men to fight against the enemy, and achieved remarkable results.

The army held a meeting of township security chiefs near Qiu's house, and more than 10 township chiefs attended the meeting.The meeting decided to organize a guerrilla team to carry out guerrilla warfare against the enemy, and at the same time organize a strong team to be responsible for defending the villages.

At the meeting, Luo Wenbo of Dai Village was designated as the guerrilla commander, and Zhang Xingyuan, the mayor of Baohua Township, Zhang Yingzhao, the security chief of Dai Village, and Wu Yudong, the security chief of Qiujiabian, were ordered to form a squadron of strong men, all under the command of Luo Wenbo.

They agreed that if the Japanese army searched the mountain, they should set fire to the designated place as a sign.If the enemy enters the village, the strong men of the village should resist with force, and the other guards will immediately send 3 armed strong men to support them as soon as they hear the gunshots.

In order to ensure that this goal can be achieved, the Chief of Staff of the 66th Army, the Chief of the Containment Office of the Nanjing Breakthrough Force of the Fourth Route Army, and the Deputy Commander of the Guerrilla Advance Column of the [-]th Army Group Guo Yongbiao once again called a meeting with the township security chief to teach guerrilla tactics.

The meeting decided that Zhang Xingyuan would be in charge and send a strong man to search for abandoned firearms in the Jiuhua Mountain area. It was stipulated that if one mortar was found, the reward would be 20 yuan; if a light machine gun, 15 yuan would be rewarded; Each reward is 10 yuan.

After that, the shelter sent officers and soldiers to the villages to train the strong men and guide them to attack the rare enemies.

In the past few days, many enemies have been killed, and even if they encounter dozens or hundreds of enemies, they can still bravely intercept and kill them.

More than 140 Japanese infantry marched towards Shangdingzhuang and Xiadingzhuang. The Liuqiao strong men rushed to kill the enemy with two light machine guns and more than a hundred rifles. From morning to dusk, 8 enemies were killed, and the enemy retreated without support.

Xie Shimao, the former security chief of Dongjingtang Township, was over 60 years old and commanded more than 100 strong men to fight fiercely with small groups of enemies for several days, killing dozens of enemies successively.Later, there were more and more enemies and no backup, so he ordered the strong men to move to other places, and stayed alone in Xiejia Village to deal with the enemy's burning and killing team. When he saw few enemies, he would shoot.

As a result, Xiejia Village was not burned and was preserved.

Later, when the officers and soldiers of the Guangdong army left here and returned south, he ignored the slippery road and saw the troops off with a shoe in his left hand and a stick in his right.When parting, he said: "If the strong men's team has enough bullets, the enemy will definitely not be able to rush in, and the East Jingtang will not be burned."

Guo Yongbiao immediately donated 200 bullets and promised to ask the government for help in the future.

At that time, the villages around Jurong had not only strong men, but also guns, and the conditions for guerrilla warfare were fully met.For example, Baohua Township has several light machine guns and more than a thousand rifles, Dai Village has more than 300 rifles, and Maoshan Township has hundreds of armed men.

The township where Fangli Village in Langxi is located is even more exaggerated. There are actually 2 mortars, 8 Maxims, and more than a thousand rifles.

Under the organization, launch and guidance of the breakout troops, the Anti-Japanese Beacon was quickly ignited.

However, the strong men in the Maoshan area have long been organized and powerful, but they are independent and do not communicate with each other, so they cannot form a strong force.

Under such circumstances, Guo Yongbiao called a meeting of more than 10 people, including Zhang Renshou, mayor of Maoshan Township, Tang Xianxiang, mayor of Dawang Village, Wang Zhiwei, mayor of Wangzhuang Township, Wu Zhonghuai and Chen Baogui, leaders of Maoshan Township, and pointed out their past mistakes. , help each other effectively, and task Zhang Renshou to be responsible, leading the people everywhere to rise up and defend against the enemy.

At the meeting, Wu Zhonghuai said that they had repeatedly resisted the Japanese burning and killing teams, and attacked the enemy at night at Tianwang Temple, captured a lot of luggage, and asked for appointment.

Chen Baogui was even more impassioned, patting his chest and shouting: "I, Chen, am 48 years old this year, and I have not done my best for the country. If I don't fight Japanese slaves today, what is the use of my old life?"

Guo Yongbiao comforted him with silver dollars in person, and promised to tell the government to appoint them separately to kill the enemy for the country.After this meeting, the situation quickly improved.

Meng Shaoyuan did not expect that the anti-Japanese armed forces in Jurong and Maoshan were so powerful.

In a township, there are not only mortars, but also 8 Maxims, which is stronger than the military strength of some regular armies.

"However, although Guo Yongbiao is nominally the deputy commander of the guerrilla advance column, he is only an aide." Zhu Yanni immediately reported: "He has sent telegrams to his superiors many times asking for military pay, weapons and ammunition, but there is nothing to see except awards. Actual action. At that time, he generously left 200 rounds of ammunition for Xiejia Village, but all the ammunition he had in total was less than 500 rounds."

Meng Shaoyuan nodded silently.

Those people above, what they say is one thing, but what they do is another thing.I always talk about developing guerrilla forces and fighting behind enemy lines, but when it comes to reality, I don't take these guerrillas seriously at all.

In addition, the central army is given priority, and the local miscellaneous troops can barely drink some soup. These guerrilla armed forces can't even drink leftover soup and water.

Occasionally, one day when he was in a good mood, he added dozens of silver dollars and hundreds of bullets to the guerrillas, and immediately publicized it, saying how much he valued Yunyun.

"What else is missing?" Meng Shaoyuan asked.

"I sent someone to contact Guo Yongbiao, and everything is missing." Zhu Yanni smiled wryly: "There is a serious lack of funds, if it weren't for Ma Zuolin, the captain of the 159th Division, and Weng Yongnian, the second lieutenant of the 160th Division, they brought more than 30 yuan. At that time, Guo Yongbiao couldn’t hold on at all. The food expenses for the officers and soldiers were only [-] cents per person per day, and they had to be shared among the villagers in each village. The [-] yuan detective fee for each township security chief was beyond the reach of the financial difficulties. Less.

And weapons.Guo Yongbiao took in [-] to [-] remnants of the army and formed them into three battalions of guerrilla advancing columns. There were only [-] guns in total, and there were almost no light and heavy machine guns. "

The situation is so bad?

Meng Shaoyuan frowned, and thought for a while: "Yanni, take your people and quickly evacuate here, don't go to Taihu Lake, move to Jurong and Maoshan. How much money do you have?"

"The funds you gave are sufficient, and there are more than 3 yuan."

"Guo Yongbiao has 2 yuan for 3 people, and 2 yuan for your [-] people, local tyrants." Meng Shaoyuan still did not forget to joke: "When you arrive at the destination, immediately find Guo Yongbiao and share [-] yuan. Give it to him. Tell him clearly that I gave it to him. After I arrive in Shanghai, I will send someone to send you the funds immediately.”

Zhu Yanni knew very well that Meng Shaoyuan was thinking of attacking and marching into the column.

This armed force used to be a regular army. Compared with those guerrillas, its combat effectiveness was not the same.

"In addition to the necessary funds, I will give you another batch of Japanese yen. They are all counterfeit, but they are very realistic. You send people to take these money to trade with the Japanese." Meng Shaoyuan thought carefully there: "There are also weapons. , Our family has a big business, and the smuggling route in Shanghai has not been broken for a day, so don't be stingy to replenish them with a batch of weapons and ammunition."

"Understood." Zhu Yanni immediately said, "Are you leaving soon?"

"Yeah. Let's go right away." Meng Shaoyuan nodded and said, "The situation in Shanghai is urgent, and I must go back immediately. Yanni, be careful yourself."

"I'll send someone to take you to Shanghai."

"No need." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "You need more manpower here than I do!"
