The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 974 must make a choice
The chief of staff read the letter written by Zhao Wannian, and his face was very ugly.He had a lot of opinions on Zhao Wannian. At the beginning, he led his troops to defect to the underground party. As Zhao Wannian's friend, the chief of staff was censored by the Japanese army and was almost arrested.

Now the Japanese army doesn't trust the security forces, and they are very closely monitored. Zhao Wannian sent people here at this time, which added a lot of danger to him for no reason.

The chief of staff said: "This Mr. Huang, I have stopped communicating with your Master Zhao, and I haven't read his letter. From now on, we will go our own way.

Ordinarily you are a member of the underground party, so I should arrest you and punish you, but you are acting according to orders, so I will not make it difficult for you.Please leave immediately and don't contact me again in the future. "

Huang Qiming wanted to say something else, but the chief of staff immediately asked the adjutant to see him off.

Huang Qiming had no choice but to get up and leave.

After he left, the chief of staff ordered his adjutant to secretly send someone to follow him. The chief of staff wanted to see who else Huang Qiming would find in the First Army.

Now that the situation is unstable and the wind and rain are precarious, he must be more careful.

The adjutant sent several cronies to follow Huang Qiming secretly.

After Huang Qiming went out, he hailed a rickshaw. He was very vigilant, paying attention to the movement around him as he walked.

He seemed to have sensed that someone was following him, so he didn't dare to return directly to the underground party's contact station, so he wandered around the streets.

There was a checkpoint in front of him. Huang Qiming had to pass through this street to go back to the underground party's liaison station. He had a qualified certificate, so he came to the checkpoint openly.

There was a Japanese soldier and several pseudo-policemen at the checkpoint. The pseudo-policemen checked Huang Qiming's documents and saw that there was no problem, so they were ready to let him pass.

At this moment, a few people in plain clothes got down from a car parked near the checkpoint, stopped Huang Qiming, and took him away.

The person sent by the adjutant saw this scene and hurried back to report to the adjutant.

The adjutant reported the situation to the chief of staff. The chief of staff's face was very gloomy, knowing that he might be in trouble. If the devils found out Huang Qiming's real identity, he would not be able to clear himself up even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

He asked the adjutant to keep an eye on this matter, and report to him immediately if there is any disturbance.

The intelligence agents of the underground party have also been guarding the gate of the First Army Headquarters of the Public Security Army. After Huang Qiming came out, they found that someone was following Huang Qiming.

So they also quietly followed, only to see Huang Qiming being taken away.

The intelligence agent returned to the intelligence station and sent a telegram to the head of the underground party.

Seeing that his plan had failed, the leader of the underground party could only ask Gao Jiu for help.

Gao Jiu then sent a telegram to Liang Liucheng, asking him to go directly to the Chief of Staff of the Public Security Army on his behalf.

On this day, Liang Liucheng entered Jinan City over the wall. According to Gao Jiu's instructions, he did not go directly to the Chief of Staff, but found another person provided by Zhao Wannian.This person is a division chief in the No. [-] Headquarters of the Public Security Army, who turned out to be Zhao Wannian's subordinate.

Liang Liucheng met the director and said that Zhao Wannian asked him to come.

The director is also very worried about his future now, and has the intention of defecting to Zhao Wannian, but he also has some concerns, and he still has many problems that have not been resolved.His family is now in Jinan City, even if he wants to defect to Zhao Wannian, he must send his family away first.

Liang Liucheng saw that this person was sincere, so he revealed his identity and promised to protect the safety of him and his family.

When the director learned that Liang Liucheng was from the famous Peach Blossom Mountain, his heart immediately felt at ease, so he agreed to cooperate with Liang Liucheng's work.

In the evening, the director came to see the chief of staff. This time he didn't mention Zhao Wannian, but directly said that people from the Taohuashan guerrillas approached him, and said that if his persuasion didn't work, Gao Jiu would come directly to the chief of staff long.

When the chief of staff heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat. He knew that he was being targeted by the Taohuashan guerrillas.

In his mind, the little devil was terrifying, but compared with the Peach Blossom Mountain guerrillas, they were nothing.

His first feeling was to choose the Peach Blossom Mountain Guerrilla Team, so he agreed to meet Liang Liucheng and see what conditions Gao Jiu offered.

The chief of staff saw Liang Liucheng and asked, "Is it true that Mr. Gao wants to attack Jinan City?"

Liang Liucheng asked, "How do you know?"

"It appears to be true," said the chief of staff.

Liang Liucheng was not sure why Jinan City suddenly closed the city gate and stepped up its guard, so he asked, "What did you hear?"

The chief of staff also wanted to find out Gao Jiu's real intention, so he told what happened.

It turned out that after the Second Division of the First Group Army defected to the underground party anti-Japanese armed forces, some of them were not sincere. In order to find a way out for themselves, a confidential staff officer secretly sent people back to the First Group Army and prepared allied forces The news of the attack on Jinan City was revealed.

The First Army reported to the headquarters of the Japanese Twelfth Army, so Jinan City strengthened its defenses.

Liang Liucheng knew that such a big attack on Jinan City could not be concealed, so he said: "You are right, my ninth master is going to attack Jinan City, and Commander Zhao of the Independent Division of the Lunan Military Region is my family. Jiuye's friend, he hoped to give you a way out, so he sent someone to contact you.

It's really unexpected that you betrayed the visitor to the Japanese army. It seems that Master Zhao still misjudged the person.I came here today just to ask you a sweet talk, do you plan to join the devils and fight against my ninth master, or accept Mr. Zhao's kindness and assist my ninth master to fight devils? "

After listening to Liang Liucheng's words, the chief of staff was caught in a dilemma.Gao Jiu was an existence he could never afford to offend, but there were [-] to [-] Japanese soldiers in Jinan City. He didn't know if Gao Jiu could take down Jinan City. If he couldn't, he cooperated with Gao Jiu's actions, and the Japanese People can't forgive themselves.

He had to figure out whether Gao Jiu had the strength to conquer Jinan City, so he said: "Master Gao Jiu is respected by everyone, of course I will not fight against Master Jiu. But our first army is in Jinan City after all, If you help Jiuye, and Jiuye won't be able to take Jinan City, then we will all die without a place to die. May I ask how many soldiers and horses Jiuye will have to fight Jinan City, and how sure is he?"

Liang Liucheng said with a smile: "There is never anything that Master Jiu can't do. Can't you see it? Now Master Jiu is in Shandong, scaring the little devils so much that he shrinks his troops and hides in Jinan City. In this way, they can save their lives, but they are wrong. There are only so many little devils in Jinan City, and it is impossible to have reinforcements.

Jiuye has organized an army of 20, and he is about to attack Jinan City.Think about it, although Jinan City has a city wall, can it stop the bombing of our Taohuashan guerrilla bombers?
Let me tell you, one of our 623kg giant aerial bombs can blow down this city wall.As far as the headquarters of your first army is concerned, two bombs can be blown flat, and the heavy artillery of our guerrillas, can the little devil stop it? "

Liang Liucheng wasn't bluffing, the things he said were real.

The chief of staff felt terrified when he thought about the terrifying firepower of the Taohuashan guerrillas.However, he doubted whether Gao Jiu really had that many troops?

He asked: "You Taohuashan is said to have only a few thousand troops, where did the 20 troops come from?"

Liang Liucheng said: "Did you forget that we Taohuashan, Nanyang and Lunan have always been a three-in-one iron triangle, let alone a 20 army, no amount of troops can come out."

The chief of staff has been in Shandong all year round, and he has indeed learned a lot about the situation in Taohuashan. He now believes that what Liang Liucheng said is true.According to his past experience, the Japanese army is really no match for the Taohuashan guerrillas.Now let him choose between the Japanese army and the Taohuashan guerrillas, he already has the answer.

But he is not the only one who has the final say on this matter, so he said: "Mr. Liang, thank Master Jiu for giving the brothers a way out. However, I have to discuss this matter with the commander first, please rest for a while. Let me discuss it and give you an answer."

Liang Liucheng said impatiently: "My ninth master is about to lead an army to surround Jinan City. As soon as the army arrives, they will start attacking the city. How long do you want to discuss? Give me an exact time."

The chief of staff said: "Mr. Liang, please don't worry, I will go to the commander to discuss it, and I will give you an answer soon."

Liang Liucheng said, "I'll just wait here."

Seeing that Liang Liucheng was pressing so hard, the chief of staff felt a little dissatisfied, but since he already had the idea of ​​defecting to Gao Jiu, he didn't dare to offend Liang Liucheng, so he said, "Well, please wait here, adjutant, you You must take good care of Mr. Liang." After speaking, he left.

The chief of staff came to the commander's office, and when he entered the door, he saw that in addition to the commander, there was a Japanese major general in the office, who was the deputy chief of staff of the No. 12 army of the Japanese army.

He met the chief of staff and said, "You came just in time. I want to know about the defense situation of your 12th Army."

Since the Japanese army learned that Gao Jiu was about to attack Jinan City, the No.12 Army made defensive deployments.They couldn't trust the security forces, so the defense of the entire city wall was handed over to the Japanese army.The task given to the First Army of the Security Army was to maintain law and order in the northern city and serve as a reserve force for the 112th Division of the Japanese Army.

The chief of staff formulated a corresponding combat plan in accordance with the requirements of the Japanese army. When he saw the deputy chief of staff of the [-]th Army ask him, he made a report to him.

The deputy chief of staff of the Twelfth Army came to test the security forces.People from the Special High School arrested Huang Qiming. Although his real identity was still unclear for a while, at this critical moment, he suddenly appeared at the headquarters of the First Army of the Security Army, which still aroused the vigilance of the Japanese army.

Therefore, the deputy chief of staff came here specially to test whether there is any abnormality in the security forces.

After listening to the report, the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Twelfth Army didn't see anything wrong, but he still revealed another reason for his visit.

He said: "The enemy army is about to overwhelm the border. In order to stabilize the morale of the army, the No. 12 Army will send an infantry brigade into the defense area of ​​the Security Force to defend your headquarters."

The commander and chief of staff of the public security army realized that it was because the little devils didn't trust them and sent troops to monitor them.Although they were very dissatisfied, there was nothing they could do.

The commander said with a smile on his face: "Thank you, Taijun, for your kindness. Welcome to send troops to the headquarters of the security forces."

The Deputy Chief of Staff of the Twelfth Army saw the good attitude of the Security Army and left very satisfied.

The chief of staff waited for a while to make sure that the devil was far away, and then reported to the commander about Liang Liucheng seeing him.

After hearing this, the commander turned pale with shock. He said, "How could you do such a foolish thing? The Japanese army obviously didn't trust us, so they sent troops to monitor us. If the Japanese army finds out what happened, it will be too much for us." let's go."

The chief of staff said: "Commander, under the current situation, do you still want to continue to follow the Japanese army?"

The commander said: "We are the jobs of the Japanese army. What can we do if we don't follow them? Gao Jiu brought people to besiege Jinan City. If we can't take Jinan down, we will get involved with Gao Jiu. Isn't that our own death?"

At this moment, the chief of staff had made up his mind and decided to defect to Gao Jiu, so he patiently told the commander what Liang Liucheng had told him.

After listening to the commander, he was still a little undecided.

The chief of staff said: "Commander, I think the people from Taohuashan are very reasonable. You can also see that the Japanese army is going downhill. In Shandong, the Japanese army's influence is limited to these few cities. Sooner or later, they will withdraw from Shandong. Can we still follow them and leave Shandong?
Now that Gao Jiu's army is pressing down on the country, if we don't seize this opportunity and leave ourselves a way out, once Gao Jiu really takes down Jinan City, we will definitely have nothing to eat. "

The commander was still a little undecided, he said, "Do you think Gao Jiu can really bring down Jinan City?"

The chief of staff said: "I think it's [-]% possible. You also know how powerful Gao Jiu's guerrillas are. The Japanese Kwantung Army's combat effectiveness is even stronger than that of the Shandong Japanese army. In the end, they were all eaten by Gao Jiu. "

After listening to the commander, he sighed and said, "This Gao Jiu is really too powerful, we really can't afford to provoke him. But if we go to Gao Jiu, what good will we gain?"

The chief of staff said: "This hasn't been discussed yet. I'm here to ask for your opinion first. If you agree to talk to them, their negotiator is in my office. Why don't I just call him over?"

The commander still hesitated, and said, "Talk to him first, and see what conditions Gao Jiu can offer me? Then we can discuss it."

The chief of staff returned to his office and said to Liang Liucheng: "Mr. Liang, I have already discussed with the commander. We are also willing to fight against the Japanese and devils. We have many brothers under our command. How can we find a future for them? However, we How should we be arranged for the anti-Japanese armed forces who defected to the underground party?"
