The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 906 Hard evidence
The commander of the 15th Army felt a headache. He suddenly worried that the 279th Brigade sent out for reinforcements might be wiped out by the enemy.He thinks that this matter should be reported to the superior, and listen to what kind of tactical guidance the commander of the front army will give.

After receiving the telegram, the commander of the South Asian Front immediately sent a telegram back to the commander of the 15th Army, asking him to ask whether the people who attacked them were from the Taohuashan guerrillas.

The commander of the 15th Army telegraphed back that he was certain that it must be a member of the Taohuashan guerrillas. Just the fact that the 279th Brigade of the Japanese Army was bombed by enemy planes was enough to prove this.

The commander of the South Asian Front Army was originally the commander of the 16th Army of the Japanese Army. He had contacted Gao Jiu through Dasaku Hejian before.

He didn't understand why Gao Jiu suddenly attacked the 65th Division of the Japanese Army. After thinking about it, he thought that he should first find out what Gao Jiu's intentions were before making a decision.

The commander of the South Asian Front had contact information with Gao Jiu's radio station, so he directly sent a telegram to Gao Jiu.

The telegram said: "Dear Mr. Gao, we have always kept the water in the well, and my troops have never offended the Golden Triangle. I don't understand why Mr. Gao suddenly attacked my troops. Is there any misunderstanding between the two sides? I also hope to call to let you know that I hope to clear up the misunderstanding and continue to maintain the good relationship between us."

Gao Jiu struggled for a long time, waiting for a telegram from the commander of the Japanese South Asia Front.

He immediately sent a telegram back to the South Asian Front Army, saying in the telegram: "Dear Commander, there is an old saying in China, which is: On the side of the couch, no one is allowed to sleep soundly. The 65th Division of the Japanese Army is too close to the Golden Triangle. I really couldn't sleep well when they were there. It was a bad feeling, so I hoped they could move somewhere, so I tried to persuade them to leave."

After reading Gao Jiu's telegram, the commander of the South Asian Front Army was very angry. He said: "Eight Yalu, how could Gao Jiu persuade people to leave like this? Such an approach is too much."

The chief of staff asked: "Your Excellency, how do you plan to deal with this matter?"

The commander said helplessly: "What else can I do? Gao Jiu is thinking about going to the 65th Division. If the 65th Division doesn't evacuate there, Gao Jiu will definitely not let it go.

Gao Jiu did not send heavy troops to eliminate the 15th Brigade sent by the 279th Army for reinforcements, and he has already saved face for us. If the stalemate continues, our loss is not sure how much it will be.

I decided to negotiate with Gao Jiu and use the withdrawal of the 65th Division as a negotiation condition, and try to get some benefits to make up for our losses. "

The chief of staff has been in Southeast Asia all these years, and has been dealing with Gao Jiu for a long time.He thinks what the commander said is very reasonable. Gao Jiu is really an existence that cannot be provoked. Over the years, the South Asian Front Army has been able to keep Gao Jiu in peace most of the time, which is already very good.It is best to maintain a peaceful relationship with Gao Jiu.

He said: "Your Excellency, Commander, I agree with you. Then negotiate with Gao Jiu."

The South Asian Front Army quickly sent a telegram back to Gao Jiu, saying in the telegram: "Dear Mr. Gao, I understand your thoughts and I am willing to relieve your concerns, so we are willing to withdraw the 65th Division from Thailand to show our solidarity. sincerity.

However, we have already invested a lot of money and painstaking effort in running the place, and now evacuating will cause great economic losses. I hope that Mr. Gao can provide some compensation so that I can have an explanation to the above. "

Guo Hengming finished reading the telegram, and said with a smile: "Jiu Ye, the little devil is subdued, what do you think?"

Gao Jiu said: "This is the best result. A strong attack is not good for us. Those little devils are hiding in the tunnels. We really have nothing to do with them. Since the devils are willing to evacuate, we might as well give them some economic benefits." Good thing, this matter is settled like this."

Guo Hengming asked: "Then how to explain this matter to Commander Liao, Chief of Staff Liu and General Thailand?"

Gao Jiu said: "This matter is easy. After the Japanese army withdrew, the industrial area will be owned by the Thai general. He must be very satisfied.

As for Liao Tong and Liu Zhanying, it is also very simple. In the name of our Taohuashan guerrillas, we sent a telegram to the Fifth Theater, saying that the Yuanzheng Army's troops played a major role in our battle against the Japanese army. After a bloody battle, the Japanese army was defeated and forced to withdraw from Thailand.This is a great credit, and the fifth theater will be satisfied. "

Guo Hengming smiled and said: "That's fine, everyone gets what they need, it can be said that everyone is happy."

Gao Jiu sent a telegram to the commander of the Japanese South Asia Front Army, saying that he agreed with his opinion. After the Japanese 65th Division withdrew from Thailand, the South Asia Front Army could send people to the Golden Triangle to buy industrial products. Gao Jiu would greet them in advance and give them a The cost price, allowing them to make a fortune, can be regarded as compensation for the withdrawal of the Japanese army.

The commander of the South Asian Front telegraphed back that he agreed with Gao Jiu's opinion, and he immediately issued an order to retreat to the Sixth and 65th Division.

The head of the 65th Division of the Japanese Army stationed in the industrial area has been waiting for reinforcements to arrive.When he learned that the reinforcements were attacked by the enemy on the road and the brigade commander had been killed, he was also very depressed.

When he didn't know how to persevere, he received a telegram from the commander of the 15th Army, asking him to lead the troops to evacuate, and send people to strictly protect the machinery, equipment and various materials of all enterprises in the industrial zone, and completely Handed over to the Taohuashan guerrillas.

After receiving such an order, the head of the 65th Division and the chief of staff breathed a sigh of relief.Although they felt sorry for losing such a cornucopia that could make a fortune, they also felt that it was better than losing their lives here.

So they left an infantry brigade in accordance with the request of the commander of the 15th Army to take care of the mine, all machinery and equipment, and warehouses for storing materials, waiting for the Taohuashan guerrillas to come to receive them.

Such a result is indeed a happy one.The 65th Division of the Japanese Army and the 279th Brigade who came to reinforce them avoided the fate of the entire army. The Japanese Army was also able to purchase industrial products produced in the Golden Triangle at low prices, and was able to obtain certain economic compensation.Yuan Zheng's army drove the Japanese army out of Thailand, which was a great achievement.The Thai general got the industrial zone to his heart's content.The Golden Triangle was freed from the threat of the Japanese army, so Gao Jiu and the others could sleep much more comfortably.

So far, this matter has been a good ending.Unfortunately, an unexpected episode set off a huge wave.

The Japanese army withdrew.Gao Jiu and the others entered the industrial area, which had been handed over to the Thai general as agreed. The purpose of Gao Jiu and the others was to take a look at the underground fortifications built by the Japanese army.

Everyone came to the halfway up a mountain, saw an exit here, and got in.

The section just entered, seems to be well repaired, the tunnel is very spacious, and the interior has been treated with cement.There are many rooms inside, and the materials inside have been evacuated by the Japanese army, but it seems that these rooms are well built.

Going further inside, the tunnel gradually became narrower, and the repairs were very simple. Even the edges were not treated, and the rocks were exposed outside. If people walked in it and accidentally bumped into the stone wall, they might be injured.However, in order to save costs, the devils are even reluctant to use cement.

Everyone continued to walk inside and found that there were many smaller exits inside.The tunnels here are dug very low, and you need to bend over to walk in.

What's even more outrageous is that some holes are inlaid with broken gasoline barrels, and people can only crawl inside.

Liao Tong said: "These little devils really know how to live. Building tunnels in this way can really save costs."

Guo Hengming smiled and said: "The little devils are relatively tall, only they can dig the tunnel like an old book hole."

Gao Jiu was a little curious, what does the other end of the gasoline barrel look like?He was going to go in and have a look.

Of course Ning Wen and Ning Wu would not let Lord Jiu go into such an old book hole, they immediately found two short guerrillas and let them go in.

About half an hour later, the two guerrillas came back.

They said: "Master Jiu, the inside of the tunnel is all paved with gasoline barrels, and there are forks dug inside. We drilled out and looked at the forks. The forks lead to the surface of the mountain, and they were dug wider. They were actually built. Bunkers. Those dark forts are built very secretly, with a wide field of vision, and a large area up the mountain can be sealed off with a single machine gun. If you attack from the front, you may suffer heavy casualties."

Wang Guimin said: "Master Jiu's decision is still correct. These devils cannot be attacked by force. Driving them away is the best outcome."

Everyone continued to observe in the tunnel. The tunnel here is relatively spacious, and the place leading to the mountain surface is even more spacious. It can be seen that this is the artillery position of the Japanese army.If the Japanese army shelled the outside from here, it would cause a lot of trouble for the attackers, and the attackers basically had nothing to do with the Japanese artillery inside, unless the shells could fly in through the shooting holes, the probability of that was almost zero.

Everyone walked along the tunnel for a long time, but they couldn't reach the end. The tunnel was winding and turned several times.When Gao Jiu and the others went out from another exit, they realized that they had reached another mountain.The little devils have basically hollowed out the surrounding hills.

The Thai general was very interested in these tunnels. He only had more than 1 troops, and it was really difficult to defend a huge industrial area. He was very worried that after the troops of the Taohuashan guerrillas and the Yuanzheng Army were withdrawn, the Japanese army would attack them again. I really can't stop it.

Now that there are solid tunnel fortifications built by the Japanese army, he is more confident in defending this industrial area.

He ordered the engineer battalion commander to go through the entire tunnel group of the Japanese army and draw a complete tunnel network map.

The Thai general's subordinates took over the entire industrial area. Although the Japanese army took away everything that could be taken away before leaving, a large number of machinery and equipment remained, and the mine was not damaged. It can be produced as long as manpower is invested.

The Thai general was very satisfied, and he said to Gao Jiu: "Mr. Gao, the things we produce here are not sold, can we sell them to you Golden Triangle?"

Gao Jiu said: "There is no problem with this. How much raw material you produce here can be shipped to the Golden Triangle, and the Golden Triangle will purchase it at market prices."

The Thai general originally wanted to buy a transport convoy from Gao Jiu, but after thinking about it, he decided that it would be best for the Golden Triangle to send a convoy to transport the raw materials they produced.In this case, once the Japanese army came to attack, it would directly threaten the safety of the Golden Triangle Transport Team, and Gao Jiu would definitely send reinforcements over by then.

He said to Gao Jiu: "Mr. Gao, we don't have the ability to ship the things we produce here. See if the Golden Triangle sent a transport team over here. We will pay you for the shipping."

Gao Jiu said: "There is no problem with these. You can send someone to the business department in the Golden Triangle to discuss the specific details."

After Gao Jiu and the others finished what they were supposed to do, they prepared to take their leave and leave.

At this moment, a Thai military officer walked in with a solemn face and whispered in the Thai general's ear for a while.

The Thai general's expression became very ugly after hearing this, and he scolded: "These damn devils are really insane to do such a thing."

After speaking, he asked the Thai military officer to report what they found to Gao Jiu and the others.

After everyone listened, they followed the Thai military officer into a mine and came to an abandoned mine.

The hole had just been dug, and there was a lot of construction waste scattered on the ground.

The Thai military officer said: "This is the place. In order to cover up their crimes, the Japanese army sealed the place with cement before they left, but a miner who survived and escaped in advance told us the truth, and only then did we find this place." In a mine."

Everyone walked into the mine, and soon after, they smelled an unpleasant smell. The further they went inside, the stronger the smell became.

Everyone arrived at the scene and looked inside. Although they knew the situation inside in advance, they still felt scalp numb after seeing it with their own eyes. The scene inside was simply horrible.

This abandoned mine is connected to a natural cave. Below the cave is a deep pit, and the stench comes from there.

The guerrillas looked down with flashlights, and they saw that there were miners' corpses below. Some of the miners' corpses had rotted, and their bones were even exposed. as much.

Gao Jiu had witnessed such a scene in the past, and he had visited the mass grave in Datong Coal Mine, Shanxi.There are tens of thousands of bones in it, all of which are iron proofs of the atrocities committed by the Japanese army on laborers.Gao Jiu was very angry at that time, because he hated that he was not born in the era of the Anti-Japanese War, otherwise he would have severely punished these ferocious Japanese devils and avenged these innocent miners.
