The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 809 Like a dream

The Jinpu Railway is the main artery of north-south transportation. Of course, Gao Jiu refused to let the Japanese army plunder China through this main artery of transportation.But Terauchi Shouyi was the commander of the North China Front Army after all. If Gao Jiu didn't give him this face, he would annoy this old guy and take revenge against the Japanese army and civilians, and it would cause more casualties.

He is weighing the pros and cons to see if he can find a way to get the best of both worlds.

There is another problem, that is, after all, Tai'an City is controlled by the underground party. Even if Gao Jiu wants to agree to give up Tai'an City, he has to seek the consent of the underground party.

Gao Jiu asked Hamada Yoshito to rest in the guest room first, and ordered people to treat him warmly.He had to think carefully before giving Hamada Yoshihito an answer.

After serious thinking, Gao Jiu basically formed a clear thinking.So he sent a telegram to the person in charge of the underground party, asking him to come to Peach Blossom Mountain.

Gao Jiu's opinion is to let the underground side abandon Tai'an City and let the Japanese army occupy it again.

The person in charge of the underground party has now become the supreme head of the Lunan Military Region, and he really wants to use Tai'an City as the location of the Lunan Military Region's organs, so of course he is somewhat reluctant.

However, he knew that Gao Jiu would not make such a request casually, he must have his reasons.

The person in charge of the underground party asked: "Mr. Gao, how do you think about this matter?"

Gao Jiu said: "You must have heard that there are two major factions within the Japanese army, one is the old-school military generals like Terauchi Shouichi, and the other is the young and strong faction who just seized power and came to power. There is a deep bond between them. conflicts. If we can take advantage of the contradictions between them and provoke them to fight each other, it will have an important and positive effect on the cause of resistance against Japan.”

Gao Jiu explained the contradictions between Shouichi Terauchi, Doihara, the commander of the Seventh Army of the Japanese Army, and others to the person in charge of the underground party in detail.

He said: "Among the Japanese army in North China, the most stubborn and active are the generals of the young faction. They have caused more harm to the Japanese army and people and the anti-Japanese base areas. The old-school generals reached a tacit agreement, so that at least one-third of the Japanese troops in North China could be reduced to resist the threat of Japanese forces. Can reduce their threat against the Japanese military and civilians.

The person in charge of the underground party nodded and said: "Mr. Gao, your idea is correct, but the main artery of the Jinpu Railway cannot be made unimpeded no matter what. That would cause more harm to the anti-Japanese cause and involve the whole country. The battle situation should not be easily given up."

Gao Jiu said with a smile: "My opinion is to give up Tai'an City to the Japanese army, but it doesn't mean to keep the Jinpu Railway open. These are completely different things."

The leader of the underground party asked: "How to achieve this goal?"

Gao Jiu told the person in charge of the underground party about his overall vision.

The person in charge of the underground party said: "I understand, then follow your advice."

The person in charge of the underground party immediately sent a telegram to the superior, with thousands of words eloquently expounding Gao Jiu's proposition in detail, asking the superior to agree to abandon Tai'an City.

The Shandong Military Region of the underground party originally did not advocate the occupation of Tai'an City, and had already issued instructions in this regard before.The tactical principle of the underground party itself is to encircle the city with the countryside, and do not compete for the gains and losses of a city or a place.After all, the Japanese army has a strong force and a high degree of maneuverability. If the underground party's armed forces are trapped in the city and surrounded by the Japanese army, the city will not be able to defend it anyway.

When the superiors figured out Gao Jiu's intentions, they thought it would be better to do so.They quickly sent a telegram and agreed with Gao Jiu's opinion.

After obtaining the consent of the underground party, Gao Jiu met with Hamada Yoshito.

He said: "Mr. Hamada, we are old friends. Since you made such a request in person, I will definitely give you this face. In this way, I have persuaded the underground party to agree to give Tai'an City to the Japanese army. "

Yoshito Hamada was very moved when he heard this.After dealing with Gao Jiu for so long, he knew that Gao Jiu was not difficult to deal with, and he was a reasonable person.

He is very emotional now, the two of them killed each other in the past, but now they have become quite good friends.

He sincerely thanked Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu said: "I have to tell you something in advance, after all, the Jinpu Railway is the main artery involved in the national war situation, even if I don't care, the underground party is not willing to let it open to traffic again.

For this, the two of you will definitely fight to the death.

Now there is a problem. Even if I persuade the underground party to hand over Tai'an City to you, I can't guarantee that you will be able to resume traffic in the future. It may be difficult for His Excellency Commander Shouyi to explain to the above. "

When Yoshihiro Hamada heard this, he knew that since Gao Jiu said so, there must be another trick.

He said sincerely: "I also ask Mr. Gao for advice."

Gao Jiu told Hamada Yoshito what he thought, and Hamada Yoshito also thought about this issue, but Gao Jiu didn't think as thoroughly as Gao Jiu.

He said with emotion: "Mr. Gao, you are so smart, thank you for thinking about the Commander of the Front Army, thank you for giving me this face.

I will see Your Excellency Commander when I go back, and I will follow your advice. "

Yoshito Hamada is a very experienced person, he doesn't see rabbits, and he doesn't scatter hawks.

He came here this time and brought 50 oceans. If he can't reach an agreement with Gao Jiu, he will take the money away.

Now that Gao Jiu helped them solve such a major problem, he took out the 50 yuan to express his gratitude to Gao Jiu on behalf of Terauchi Shouyi, and then left.Gao Jiu arranged for a transport plane to take him to Peking Airport.

Yoshito Hamada knew before that Gao Jiu had a close relationship with the Japanese Air Force, and now he has a deeper understanding of Gao Jiu's profound influence within the Japanese army.

After Hamada Yoshichi left, Gao Jiu handed over the 50 yuan he earned today to Lin Yanni and Long Guobi, saying that the money was the benefit of the two of them traveling thousands of miles to take care of him, so he distributed it to them as private money up.

The two ladies were very happy, and their already beautiful faces were smiling like flowers.

They are all glad that they are married to a superhero, and they are also a master of making money. They are truly tall, rich and handsome, and they are generous and forthright.Not to mention how satisfied they were.

Hamada Yoshito returned to the headquarters of the front army and reported the results of the trip to Taohuashan to Terauchi Shouichi.Shouyi in the temple was very satisfied.

He immediately drafted a telegram and assured the Japanese base camp that Tai'an City would be recaptured within three days.

After sending the telegram, he immediately ordered the commander of the Japanese 12th Army, Togo Yoshino, to send troops to attack Tai'an City.

Dongxiang Yoshino dispatched the 141st Division from Jinan to attack Tai'an City along the Jinpu Railway.

The head of the 141st Division of the Japanese Army was very disturbed, knowing that now Gao Jiu was helping the underground party to defend Tai'an City.

He has already suffered a lot, and he is very worried that if he attacks Tai'an City with a division, he will suffer heavy losses, and the entire army may even be wiped out.

However, Dongxiang Yoshino, the commander of the 12th Army, issued a death order, so he had to bite the bullet and lead the brigade to Tai'an City.

He was very careful along the way to guard against the sneak attack of the Taohuashan guerrillas.

They didn't expect their actions to be very smooth. It was only when they arrived in Tai'an City that they encountered slight resistance from the underground party.

Just when they arrived in Tai'an City, the underground party armed forces in Tai'an City had already withdrawn from Tai'an City, and took back Tai'an almost without bloodshed.

The division head of the 141st Division of the Japanese Army was very happy and immediately sent a telegram to Dongxiang Yoshino to report the victory.

Dongxiang Yoshino had already received hints from Terauchi Shouichi in advance, and he was also very satisfied with the result, so he reported the good news to Terauchi Shouichi.

Shouyi immediately sent a telegram to the base camp of the Japanese army to report the victory.

The base camp of the Japanese army also included Doihara. At first, there was some doubt as to whether Shouichi Terauchi would have the ability to take back Tai'an City.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Si Nei Shou said what he said, he really took back Tai'an City from the underground party in three days.

They couldn't help re-examining Terauchi Shouichi's ability, and made a circular to commend Terauchi Shouichi's achievements. It can be said that Terauchi Shouichi showed his face this time.

This was discussed by Gao Jiu and Hamada Yoshihito in advance. The underground party has occupied Tai'an City. Of course, they cannot give up casually, otherwise, they will be accused of fearing the enemy and avoiding war.

Now that the two sides have fought fiercely, the underground party has been forced to withdraw from Tai'an City, which is an explanation for all parties.Of course, Terauchi Shouichi also achieved his goal.

The 141st Division of the Japanese Army reoccupied Tai'an, but this does not mean that the Jinpu Railway can be opened.

Now in the southern Shandong area, the Japanese army only occupied the isolated island of Tai'an City, surrounded by bases of the Southern Shandong Military Region. They pulled out the Jinpu Railway in the southern Shandong area, almost all the railway subgrades, and all bridges and culverts Railway facilities, stations, telephone poles and other railway facilities were all destroyed. If the Japanese army wanted to restore the opening to traffic, it had to invest a lot of manpower and material resources, and it would take a long time to make it possible.

However, the Japanese army simply couldn't do it.They repaired the railway during the day and were demolished by the underground party at night.

At night, troops were sent to protect it, but they were constantly attacked by underground parties.

After finally repairing the bridge, the culvert was soon blown up again.The railway will be open to traffic in the foreseeable future.

Terauchi Shouichi was not nervous at all, because this was deliberately arranged by him.

The division head and chief of staff of the 141st Division are both generals of the Young and Strong faction, and they belong to the same system of Doihara.Now that they have occupied Tai'an City, they are unable to repair the Jinpu Railway. It is the incompetence of the generals of the 141st Division of the Japanese Army. It was the generals of the young faction who were ashamed, including Doihara.

Doihara knew that he had been fooled by Shuichi in the temple, but he could only suffer from being dumb.

Doihara felt more and more that it was impossible to get through the Jinpu Railway relying on the existing generals of the North China Front Army. Therefore, he still had to find a way to send a capable general to preside over the work of the North China Front Army.

For several days, he held talks with a senior general of the Japanese army. He believed that this man had outstanding talents and would definitely be able to open up a new situation in the work of the North China Front Army.

He has obtained the consent of this person and is willing to work in the North China Front Army.

Of course, it is not easy to replace Terauchi Shouichi. Doihara has to go through a series of operations before he can achieve this goal.

Then Doihara started secret activities in Tokyo.

Qingdao.

Captain Hirata has been the captain of the gendarmerie for several years now, and getting rich is inevitable, but he feels that his rights are a little small, and he hopes to be promoted.

He invited Li San to a banquet, and half-jokingly revealed his thoughts to him.

Li San sent a telegram to report the situation to Gao Jiu. Gao Jiu also felt that Captain Hirata's qualifications were no longer shallow, and that he should indeed be promoted in terms of military rank and position, so he prepared to help him promote his position.

Of course, Qingdao is very important, and the Gendarmerie must be controlled by Captain Hirata.

So Gao Jiu started activities to help Captain Hirata fulfill his wish for promotion.

For Gao Jiu, this matter was very easy. He believed that Hamada Yoshitaka knew that Captain Hirata was his own.

This matter is very obvious. Captain Hirata was originally the captain of the Shoucheng County Gendarmerie in front of Taohuashan. It was impossible for him to become the captain of such an important Qingdao Gendarmerie from a small lieutenant officer without Gao Jiu's help.

Fortunately, Yoshito Hamada has always turned a blind eye and closed his eyes. He has never intervened in Qingdao affairs.

Now that Gao Jiu entrusted him with the promotion of Captain Hirata, he went to Terauchi Shouichi and told him Gao Jiu's request.

Now there is a good tacit relationship between Shouyi and Gao Jiu in the temple, such a small matter is just a matter of words to him.He agreed right away.

Captain Hirata proposed that he wanted to be promoted. He didn't have high hopes at first, but he just hoped to be the head of the Special Advanced Section of the Qingdao Gendarmerie Command and he was content.

He did not expect that the order he received was to serve as the commander of the Qingdao Gendarmerie Command.

When he first heard the amazing good news, he couldn't believe it. He thought he was dreaming, so he bit his wrist hard, and the intense pain told him that it was actually real.

Captain Hirata was overjoyed. What he was happiest about was not that he was promoted to Colonel, but the most important thing was that he became a commander, which would make it easier to earn money in the future.

Of course he knew that it was Gao Jiuye's efforts behind his back, so he immediately paid 5 oceans and asked Li San to pass it on to Gao Jiu to express his gratitude.
