The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 375
The 20th Army is currently facing a very serious situation. On the front, the 11rd Regiment of the 23th Brigade of the 20th Division of the Japanese Army is launching a fierce attack on the positions of the 24th Army. The [-]th Regiment is making a detour from the left to the south of Tanxi County outflank.

According to the order of the Ninth Theater Command, the 20th Army must stick to Tanxi County for at least 5 days. Now they are rushing to repair the fortifications near the county. Difficult to hold on to.Now the 20th Army is facing many difficulties, and what is most needed at present is to buy time to rush to repair the fortifications.

After the chief of staff introduced the situation, Commander Yang and the others all looked at Gao Jiu, wanting to see how he, the special commissioner, would resolve the crisis in front of him.

Gao Jiu acted resolutely and resolutely. He said, "Please connect me to the war zone chief's department."

The chief of staff personally picked up the phone and asked the switchboard to transfer to the Chief of the Ninth War Zone. Unexpectedly, the phone could not be connected. The chief of staff immediately ordered the communication team to go out to check the phone line.

Gao Jiu couldn't wait any longer, and he didn't use the radio station of the 20th Army, so he had someone call Jia Liu in, and immediately sent a telegram to Lin Yanni.

While waiting for Lin Yanni to reply to the telegram, Gao Jiu asked someone to fetch a pen and paper.He has a good habit of observing the surrounding terrain wherever he goes. In fact, this is also a necessary quality for a military commander.Before entering the county seat, he had already taken a rough look at the surrounding terrain.According to the terrain along the line, he drew a comprehensive defense system for digging trenches for defense, and then called the engineer division chief and engineer battalion commander of the 20th Army to explain the details of the comprehensive defense system to them.

After reading it, the chief engineer praised it again and again. He said: "The special commissioner's defense system is very practical. According to this trench defense system, our army's survivability and combat ability can be greatly improved."

The generals present were also experts, and they couldn't help nodding to Gao Jiu to express their appreciation.

The engineer battalion commander said: "This trench defense system is good, but the Japanese army's offensive is so fierce, I am afraid that there is too little time."

Gao Jiu said confidently: "As long as you can stick to it until it gets dark today, I can guarantee that the Japanese army will temporarily stop attacking tomorrow, and at least I can buy you more than one day. You start digging now, and tomorrow the entire Is one day enough time?"

"That's enough," said the engineer battalion commander.

Commander Yang and others didn't know why Gao Jiu was so sure that the Japanese army would stop attacking tomorrow.

The deputy army commander asked suspiciously: "Commander Gao, why did the Japanese army stop attacking tomorrow?"

Gao Jiu didn't know much about the people in the 20th Army, and it was inconvenient for him to reveal his specific plan. He said, "I have my own way of doing this. If you trust me, the deployment will be based on the fact that the Japanese army will stop attacking tomorrow."

The generals of the 20th Army whispered to each other in disbelief.

The deputy army commander was a little dissatisfied and said: "Commander Gao, it's not that we can't trust you, but this matter is too big. If the Japanese army doesn't stop attacking tomorrow, the No. 20 Army's defense line may collapse. If something goes wrong , who is responsible for this?"

Gao Jiu smiled lightly and didn't answer his words.

For Commander Yang, Gao Jiu was strongly recommended by the chief of staff of the war zone. The chief of staff said that Gao Jiu was as confident as a mountain, and as long as he promised, there was nothing he couldn’t do. He chose to trust Gao Jiu because of his behavior style.

He said: "Commander Gao, I believe you. According to what you said, the 20th Army will re-adjust its deployment of troops, deploy troops to dig trenches, and prepare to hold on for a long time."

Everyone was still a little puzzled, but seeing Commander Yang speak up, they stopped talking.

At this time, Lin Yanni replied to the telegram. After translating the telegram, Gao Jiu said to Commander Yang and others: "The 39th Army of the Central Army on your right wing has agreed to support you with 40 rounds of ammunition, 400 platoon shells and 3 shells. Grenades, you can send someone to get them now."

This was naturally resolved by Lin Yanni through her father's coordination.

The generals of the 20th Army saw that Gao Jiu had such great energy, and they had no doubts about Gao Jiu, and expressed their gratitude to Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu looked at his watch and said, "It's not too late. Let's split up, and I'll take my leave first. I'll give you accurate information before 6:[-] tomorrow morning at the latest."

After speaking, he left with Wang Guimin, Jia Liu and others.

The deputy army commander looked at the disappearing backs of Gao Jiu and the others, and said with emotion: "This commissioner Gao really deserves his reputation, and his energy is really too great. If he can really stop the Japanese army from attacking tomorrow, I will talk to him well." make friends."

After leaving Tanxi County, Gao Jiu sent a telegram to Director Li of the Wuhan Military Intelligence Department on the truck.

Hefei, Headquarters of the Sixth Division.

Mr. Gu Shoufu is a murderous demon. Most people think that he is vulgar and ignorant. In fact, he has a good appearance, wearing a pair of glasses, and looks very gentle.

He is a very learned man, graduated from the 1903th class of the Army Non-commissioned Officer Academy in 15, and graduated from the 1911th class of the Army University in 24 with honors.According to the current statement, he is a highly educated senior intellectual.

He also has a hobby, like calligraphy.In the Nanjing Anti-Japanese War Museum, there is a collection of six characters written by Gu Shoufu, a Class B war criminal in the Nanjing Massacre by the Japanese invaders. Quite deep, but full of arrogance and arrogance between the lines.

People who like calligraphy generally also like to collect calligraphy posts, and Master Gu also has this hobby.

There is a folk collector in Hefei who has a copy of AH Dangtu ancient calligrapher Bo Shaozhi in his hand.

This afternoon, Gao Jiu and others drove a truck to Hefei City. The Japanese soldiers guarding the city gate were not curious when they saw them driving Guojun military vehicles, because at this time the Japanese army captured a lot of Guojun vehicles. This situation is quite normal when a large number of civilian vehicles are requisitioned.

After Gao Jiu showed his ID, he entered Hefei City smoothly, and then drove towards Dongbeifang Road in the city.

Not long after, three unexpected guests came to the home of Li Xianzhi, a collector at No. 2 Beifang Road.The people who came were a devil's major and two soldiers with rifles.

Guizi Shaozuo spoke Chinese very well, and he said, "Mr. Li, I heard that you have Bo Shaozhi's signature in your hand, and I want to buy it." As he spoke, he opened a suitcase, which was filled with legal currency.

Li Xianzhi heard that someone asked for Bo Shaozhi's calligraphy by name, so he knew that someone inside had reported the letter to them, so he couldn't hide it.He didn't want to give it, but he saw the bayonets in the hands of the two ghost soldiers shaking wildly, so he had to ask the housekeeper to take out Bo Shaozhi's calligraphy.

He said: "Take the things, I don't want the money, please don't hurt my family."

Major Guizi stared at him and said, "Ba Ga, you must keep the money, otherwise you will die." After speaking, he left the money and left.

Li Xianzhi felt a little baffled, he opened the suitcase and looked, there was a lot of legal currency inside, and a few large yellow croakers, enough to buy his poster at the market price.

Li Xianzhi was very puzzled, and thought to himself: "When did the devil change his nature, and he doesn't grab things by force?"

The three devils are Gao Jiu, Ning Wen and Ning Wu.Gao Jiu found out that there was such a collector in Hefei through Director Li of the Military Intelligence Department, so he came here specially.Gao Jiu knew that collectors generally cherish their collections as if they were their lives. If you use money to buy them, it will definitely be useless, so he had no choice but to use this method to forcefully buy and sell.

Mr. Gu Shoufu is in a good mood recently. This time he attacked Hefei, he finally passed the addiction of being the first.When conquering Nanjing, he did not get the glory of being the first to capture the presidential palace, but was preempted by the No.16 division.This time, he independently conquered Hefei, the capital of AH province, and organized a city entry. The city entry was well organized, which made Mr. Gu very proud.

Gu Shoufu's headquarters is in the Jinming Hotel, the largest hotel in Hefei. He lives on the fifth floor and is heavily guarded.

After Gao Jiu got Bo Shaozhi's letter, he called his new Japanese friend.

Tandong County, Japan Jiuling Co., Ltd. branch.

Kotaro Kanai received a call from the man he met on the road, Major Harada Shio of the Nanjing Special High School, saying that he had obtained Bo Shaozhi's calligraphy and asked him to contact his uncle, Mrs. Gu, who wanted to send the copybook to Your Excellency, Commander.

Kotaro Kanai told Gao Jiu about Mrs. Gushou's hobbies. He knew his uncle's preferences. He was very happy to hear that he got such a precious copybook, and said, "Mr. Harada, that's really great. I'll tell you right away. my uncle."

After contacting Gushoufu, Gao Jiu asked Jia Liu, Ning Wen and Ning Wu to wait on the truck parked on the side of the road. He came to the gate of Jinming Hotel by himself. He showed his ID and the sentinel Seeing no problem, let him in.

When he arrived at the entrance of the main building, he asked to see the deputy commander of the division head, Major Sato, and the officer on duty called the deputy Major Sato.

Gao Jiu said: "I am Harada Shixiong from the Special High School of the Nanjing Gendarmerie Headquarters. I have seized a copy of the AH Dangtu ancient calligrapher Bo Shaozhi. I want to present it to you, the head of the division. In addition, I have prepared some gifts for you. .”

Major Sato knew about this, he was very happy when he heard that the person was sensible and had prepared a gift for himself, and came down to see him soon.

Gao Jiu first took out two large yellow croakers and stuffed them to Shao Zuo Sato.Major Sato was a confidant of the head of the division, and he was used to receiving gifts, so he didn't refuse, and he didn't even bother to say thank you.He said: "Where are the signatures? I will pass them on to your Excellency, Division Chief."

Gao Jiu took out the signature, handed it to him, and said, "Please tell your Excellency, the head of the division, that besides this signature, I have an important secret that I want to tell him personally." After finishing speaking, he took out another A jade ornament, and handed it to Sato, asking him to help introduce your Excellency, the head of the division.

Major Sato was very happy, he said: "Just wait." Then he left.

About 15 minutes later, Major Sato came down, and he said to Gao Jiu, "Let's go, come up with me."

Gao Jiu handed over his weapon and followed Major Sato to the elevator.

In the elevator, Major Sato asked, "Yokota, the chief weaver of your Nanjing Gendarmerie Command, is my classmate. How is he?"

Gao Jiu was taken aback: "Damn it, this guy actually knows the colleague with the identity I made up. If I keep asking about this, I'm sure it will be revealed."

He had an idea and said: "Mr. Sato, this time I am here, and I came to Hefei specially. I don't want people in the Gendarmerie Command to know. Please keep it secret for me, please."

Major Sato understood that this guy took the opportunity of performing a mission to do private affairs for his relatives, so he naturally didn't want his chief to know.He smiled, but he didn't ask any more questions.

Mrs. Gu Shoufu carefully studied Bo Shaozhi's calligraphy just now, and confirmed that it was authentic. He also heard that Gao Jiu still had something in his hand, so he wanted to meet Gao Jiu.

Gushoufu's residence was heavily guarded. There were two guards at the stairs, and there was a table with a second lieutenant on duty sitting behind him. Two guards stood guard at the door of Mrs. Gushou's room.

When they arrived at the door of the room, Sato asked Gao Jiu to wait at the door. He went in to report first, and soon he came out and said, "Come with me."

When Gao Jiu entered the door, he saw the notorious Master Gu.

Tani Shoufu is nearly 1.7 years old, [-] meters three, and is considered tall among Japanese people.Wearing a pair of glasses, with a short beard under his nose, and a clean-shaven chin, he looked handsome and rather bookish.However, if you look closely, you can see that the corners of his eyes are drooping, giving people a sinister feeling.

Gao Jiu thought to himself, this guy is not pleasing to the eye, so he has to deal with him later.

After Gao Jiu and Shao Zuo Sato came in, Gao Jiu stood at attention and saluted, and announced his family name.

Mrs. Gu looked at him, and said with a smile: "You are a good friend of my nephew. I like the calligraphy of Bo Shaozhi you sent me. I will give you what you want."

When Master Gu laughed, his attitude was very kind, and he looked like an elder.

Gao Jiu said hastily: "Thank you, Your Excellency, Division Chief."

Mrs. Gu asked: "Do you have any other good things, let me tell you."

Gao Jiu didn't say a word, and glanced at Major Sato, Mr. Tani Shou understood what he meant, and said, "It's okay, just tell me."

Gao Jiu saw that he could not leave Major Sato, so he was ready to find a chance to get rid of Sato first.

Gao Jiu took out a cloth bag from his pocket, trying to get close to Master Gu.

Sato stopped him and reached for the cloth bag.Gao Jiu had no choice but to hand over the cloth bag to him.

Gushoufu lowered his head and opened the cloth bag layer by layer. Sato also looked at it with interest, wondering what was inside.

Seeing the opportunity, Gao Jiu wanted to step forward to finish them off. At this moment, someone outside shouted, "Report."

Gao Jiu knew that someone was coming outside, so he had no choice but to temporarily give up his plan to fight, and stood aside in a respectful manner.

Master Gu recognized the identity of the person coming from outside, and said, "Come in."

The door opened, and a Japanese lieutenant came in. He said, "Your Excellency, Chief of the Division, Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, please go over."

Gu Shoufu was very interested in what Gao Jiu brought, and now he was disturbed, obviously a little unhappy.He frowned, then relaxed again.He opened the safe next to the desk, put the things Gao Jiu brought in, and said to Gao Jiu, "Tell Sato what you want to say." After speaking, he left with the Japanese lieutenant .

Gao Jiu watched the murderous demon leave helplessly, but there was nothing he could do. Gao Jiu couldn't do anything now, otherwise it would be very difficult for him to get out of this building!
Gao Jiu didn't expect such an accident to happen. Under normal circumstances, he should tell Sato his brother's name and unit number, and then ask Master Gu to take care of him.However, Gao Jiu didn't know the specific situation of the subordinate units of the Sixth Division. If he said it and someone called, the matter would be revealed.

He pondered for a while and said: "Mr. Sato, my brother is just a small person. You are busy with your affairs. If I say it now, I am afraid you will not remember it. Do you think this will work? After this battle is over, I will My brother has made meritorious service, and then I will call you to ask for your care."

For Sato, this is an indifferent matter, and telling him now, he really can't remember.

"It's okay." He said: "This is the best. If he can make a contribution in battle, it will be more convenient for your Excellency to speak."

Gao Jiu said: "Then thank you Sato-kun, please! I will take my leave first."

Gao Jiu left the headquarters building of the Sixth Division, and then walked out the gate of the hotel.

After Gao Jiu walked out of the gate, he looked back at the devil's headquarters, feeling very depressed. Not only did he fail to kill Master Gu this time, but he also lost tens of thousands of dollars worth of things, but it was a big loss.

"You wait for me." Gao Jiu said viciously.
