Chapter 834 The Destination of the Four Elements Group

Tang Dao finally didn't turn around and went to look for Comrade Lao Song again.

He just suddenly remembered a key point that old Comrade Song said, that he wanted to receive the batch of silver, in addition to the warrants of Song and Zhang, he also needed the code in the hands of another giant of the 29th Army, Liu Ruming.

Who is Liu Ruming? Although he ranks behind Song, Zhang, Feng and others in the 29th Army, he is the confidant of Lao Song. Under Comrade Lao Song's operation, he was promoted to Lieutenant General of the Army, and the relationship was much closer than that of a brother like Commander Zhang who could almost keep pace with Comrade Lao Song.

To put it bluntly, two votes to one vote, the main right to use this batch of silver is actually still in the hands of Comrade Song, but after he gave the warrant, he pretended to forget and asked his confidantes to ask for code words, his mental state is probably still a bit fleshy Pain, artificially added a little obstacle to Tang Dao.

If Tang Dao had the cheek to get it back, maybe the matter of the secret language would be resolved, but it would be inferior.

What's more, Tang Dao is even sure that even if he goes back, that person will find an excuse to not see Tang Dao.

Then this matter can only fall on Commander Zhang. Tang Dao has nothing to do with Commander Liu, so if he sent a telegram rashly, the chance of being scolded is more than 100%.

That is, when he thought that Commander Zhang was still fighting the Japanese army in the Huaihe River at this time, and if he went to make trouble for him, he was just looking for trouble, Tang Dao couldn't help feeling rather depressed, and the good mood just disappeared in an instant.

As everyone knows, there are people talking about him in the small courtyard where Tang Dao has just been ten miles away.

"Commander, will that little regiment leader Tang come back to look for you again?" A soldier in a colonel's uniform cautiously asked General Song who was standing in the courtyard with his hands behind his back.

"He's a smart man, he won't come back, and he knows it, and he won't see me again." Admiral Song shook his head, answering his personal adjutant.

"Then, you just gave the warrant and didn't ask Commander Liu to pick up the goods. You just gave Commander Zhang face. In fact, you still want to leave some money for our 29th Army?" As the closest person to him, the Colonel of the Army naturally spoke bluntly out of curiosity. outspoken.

This is also the smartest thing about this kind of secretary. He knows that his chief has a lot of intrigues outside, and his heart is already very tired. If he beats around the bush again, he will be in the same position as those people. Far.

"Hehe! Dacheng, you have been with me for five or six years!" Admiral Song smiled slightly, and did not answer directly, but asked about the time between the adjutant and himself.

"Yes, I have followed you since you were ordered to form the 21th Army in the 29st year of the Republic of China." The colonel's adjutant was a little confused.

"Five or six years is not too short!" Admiral Song sighed slightly as he looked up at the starry sky. "But you, after all, I still don't have Chen Chen, my biggest competitor, to understand me!"

Seeing the frightened expression on the Colonel's adjutant's face, he waved his hands and said, "It's not that you are stupid, but that this is the only person in the world who understands Song Zheyuan best. Killing him is one of the things I regret most about anything I've done in my life."

After a pause, he continued to sigh: "He knows that I regard the army under my command as my life. If it is not a last resort, I will never give up my desire for power. I am afraid that you think so too. But at this time, it is a last resort. It is about to break through the front line of our Henan province. If Xuzhou is defeated again, the Japanese army will point directly at several provinces in central China.

By then, not to mention returning to North China, most of China may have fallen into the hands of the enemy.

By that time, we Chinese will all become disgraceful subjugated slaves, and no matter how intoxicating the beauty of power is, it is nothing but an illusion.

I, Song Zheyuan, keep those money, so what's the use?If you know me well, you will definitely make up your mind. "

"Then why?" The colonel's adjutant was even more puzzled.

Since the admiral commander in front of him is determined to give away the wealth that he is destined to be unable to get, why does he artificially add obstacles to Tang Dao? Isn't this scolding?

"Hey, the 68th Army who transferred Liu Ziliang went to Xuzhou, but he just wanted to quietly split up my 29th Army! Maybe it won't be long before I will be promoted to the deputy commander of the theater, and my command will be completely emptied , This kind of pediatric method can't even hide the little guy surnamed Tang, secretly waking me up, why don't I know?" Admiral Song sneered slightly, but his eyes were full of helplessness.

The headmaster did not use a conspiracy but a cunning plan. The reason why he dared to use this move was based on the fact that his first army had lost consecutive battles. How to cover the sky with one hand, but dare not be so blatant.

To put it bluntly, he still blamed the First Army for not living up to expectations and giving the old opponent an excuse.

The colonel's adjutant could only remain silent. This kind of contest between the big bosses was beyond his meddling as a junior adjutant.

"But in this battle, I, Song Zheyuan, failed to feel sorry for the folks in North China, not the 29th Army. It doesn't matter if I want to pull me Song Zheyuan off the horse, but the brothers of the 29th Army are not wrong. Zhao, Tong and tens of thousands of 29th Army Army brothers spilled blood on the battlefield, their blood can’t just be shed in vain, someone has to avenge them, and the 29th Army can’t just disperse like this.” General Song was a little agitated, his eyes flashed coldly, and the corners of his mouth were full of tears. ridicule.

"Didn't he transfer Liu Ziliang's 68th Army to Xuzhou? That's good. Xi Chen's 59th Army is also in Xuzhou. He only knows that we are already in conflict. There is no way the 59th Army and the 68th Army have any contact. Little did he know that for the sake of his little brother, for the sake of the country and the nation, Xichen would actually put aside all personal grievances and abandon the previous grievances with me.

Hehe, as long as Xichen and Ziliang rely on each other to help each other on the battlefield, these two armies are both the old divisions of our 29th Army, but they have different designations, and that person's painstaking calculations are just a joke. "

"What does the commander mean?" The colonel seemed to have grasped a certain key point.

"Once Chen Chen receives a telegram from Tang Dao, he will immediately contact Liu Ziliang to ask him for a code word. Both of them are extremely smart people. I don't need to say more about it. I know what I want. Since then, the army has stood by and helped each other, and we will not lose the reputation of the 29th Army in the bloody battle of the Great Wall." General Song felt a sense of accomplishment in his eyes.

That was the elite army that he created with his own hands. Although he was defeated repeatedly under the pressure of the Japanese army, and some people deliberately did it, it was already in a state of being torn apart, but he joined forces with his former assistant again, and will use it to fight against the enemy. Another way Nirvana rebirth.

This is the hero, even if he is already a stranger, he can use every possibility to turn things around, even at the expense of himself.

If Tang Dao could hear these words, he could only take a breath, and admire the abilities of these troubled people again, even if he had already placed them at a very high level.

The ruts of history have proved that the 29th Army, which had made great achievements on the Great Wall, has never fallen. Even if the designation does not exist, Zhang, Feng, and Liu under its command all played their own part in the entire Great Patriotic War. sky.

Needless to say, Commander Zhang was promoted from the commander of the 59th Army to the commander of the 33rd Group Army. In the Zaoyi Battle, he led 3000 people to fight against the two infantry regiments of the Japanese Army in the battle of Xianghe in the battle of Zaoyi. After seven days of hunger strike, the husband and wife were buried together at the foot of Meihua Mountain in the mountain city, and even the Japanese general respectfully called him "a heroic and heroic general who died in battle!" '

Praise from the devil is also praise!
Feng Zhi'an's 77th Army was promoted to the deputy commander of the first war zone in Song Dynasty. After the first army was disbanded and reorganized, it was transferred to Xuzhou to participate in the famous Taierzhuang Battle. It was later joined with the 59th Army to form the 33rd Army. After the death of Commander Zhang, it became the 33rd Army Commander, until the end of the war, he still stuck to the western Hubei and Jiangbei areas, fought bravely, and never stopped.

Liu Ruming's 68th Army was ordered to garrison the heavy city of Xuzhou. As the core city of the entire Xuzhou battle, fierce battles were inevitable. They held on for three months and did not retreat half a step. Xuzhou tried to use Xuzhou's army to make up for the wounds, but the 68th Army came to attack the west, and the whole army successfully withdrew from Xuzhou, leaving an empty city for the Japanese army, which also created a miracle.

The name of the 29th Army has never fallen into the abyss because of the loss of the designation.

In this era, because of the accidental intrusion of Tang Dao, a little butterfly, the two who were once at odds had private contact.Tang Dao, who learned the truth in the future, thought carefully that even if he hadn't appeared, the two people would definitely have contact under the general trend of national ruin and family ruin.

Because they are all heroes of this era, matters of life and death are already indifferent, so what are some personal grievances?
. . . . . . . . . . .

Of course, what Er Ya was worried about would not happen. It was only one night after Tang Dao reunited with the Four Elements Group and sent a telegram to Commander Zhang who was hundreds of kilometers away.

"Return to me North China!" The four words were passed on to Tang Dao.

Because of Tang Dao, a bridge that shouldn't have appeared, the old part of the 29th Army was reconnected a long time earlier than it should have been.

The Battle of Taierzhuang, led by the Northwest Army, not only added the 67th Army, but also the 59th Army and the 77th Army that will surely appear, a total of [-] troops, and they are closely connected. This is an unexpected change even Tang Dao.

And this is a devastating disaster for the Fifth Division of the Japanese "Steel Army", which is divided into two groups, and the Tenth Division, which is known as Japan's first mechanized division.

In the past time and space, just dealt with an infantry division of the Northwest Army firmly guarding Taierzhuang and the 20th Army Corps of the Central Army who were timid on the outside. The two strongest infantry brigades of the Master Regiment lost more than [-] in battle.

What kind of bad luck they will encounter this time, even Tang Dao, the instigator, cannot guess.

But the only thing Tang Dao can be sure of is that as long as the attack is resolute enough, ignoring sacrifices, and preventing the remnants of the Japanese army from retreating to Zexian County, the combat effectiveness of the 67th Army and the 59th Army is enough to kill them in the wilderness.

However, the Japanese army will definitely not sit back and watch the two elite infantry brigades be destroyed. Perhaps infantry reinforcements are too late, but air support must be indispensable.

Based on the level of civil engineering operations of the Japanese army, it was enough for them to build a field fortification with huge lethality within a few days. Even if the 60,000 people of the two infantry corps finally succeeded, the casualties must be so heavy that it is difficult to look directly at it.

But what about adding an infantry army?What about an infantry army that has been defeated and retreated from North China, and has already suffered from embarrassment and loss?

Don't use Tang Dao to guess the result. Even if 100,000 people spit out their mouths, they can feed the less than [-] Japanese soldiers in the encirclement.

Of course, there is no need for Tang Dao to guess and worry about this kind of battle situation. He has done everything within his power. The Xuzhou battle also gathered the best commanders and generals that China can mobilize at this time. The massacre in Jinling also made the 600,000 army With the same enemy, morale increased instead of decreased compared to the Battle of Songhu.

Everything is not left to God's will, but the courage of the Chinese soldiers in the vortex of war.

The courage to live to death!

In time and space, that's what they did.

This time, there is no reason not to do it again.

. . . . . . . . .

Tang Dao, who received the code word, did not rush to order the four-element regiment to march.

Although the entire army of the Four Elements Regiment is still [-] kilometers away from Xinxiang and tens of kilometers away from the front line, Tang Dao instinctively felt that the Japanese North China Front Army would not easily let him and the Four Elements Regiment belong.

After all, the old hatred has not been exhausted and the new hatred is born again. If it were him, he would never let it go easily.

Although the spy network inside and outside Zhengzhou City has been wiped out, it is a good thing for the Four Elements Group to march secretly, but Tang Dao will never put his safety in the hands of others, let alone hope that the Japanese spies will not be killed. Dare to covet him again.

The army of the Four Elements Regiment rushed to Xinxiang, which had gradually become the front line. In fact, it was an act to confuse the Japanese army, making them unable to figure out the marching route of the Four Elements Regiment.

Now the Four Elements Regiment is going to deliver supplies to the 23rd Group Army of the Sichuan Army in Jin Province. It should not be a big secret. Passing through Xinxiang, the shortest way to go to Jin Province is to go to Hui County, cross Wang Mangling, and then enter the border between Henan and Jin provinces. Taihang Mountains.

After entering the Taihang Mountains, for the Japanese army, the mountains and forests are vast, and Jin Province is already a war zone. The Japanese army spent a lot of effort to occupy several large cities, and they have no control over the mountains. They want to deal with such an equipment as the Four Elements Regiment. The excellent and sturdy infantry regiment did not send out an infantry brigade to intercept back and forth, and the Japanese themselves did not dare to act rashly.

In fact, their enemy is not just the Four Elements Group. There are too many Chinese people active in that mountain.

In addition to the Jinsui Army, there is also the Central Army, the Sichuan Army, and another opponent that caused Seishiro Itagaki a headache, the 18th Division of the No.129 Army.

In the past few months, the 129th Division has suffered a lot from the 20th Division and the 109th Division, which assisted the Fifth Division. In the battle of Niangziguan alone, hundreds of people from the 20th Division were killed in three ambushes in Qigen Village. What made the Japanese blush the most was that the 129th Brigade of the 386th Division used exactly the same tactics at the same location, but succeeded consecutively.

This is because the equipment of the 129th Division is too simple, mainly rifles and machine guns, and there is no artillery support at all. Otherwise, it is still unknown whether someone from the 20th Division's supply team and cavalry unit can come out to report.

In the face of China's huge mountain stretching for hundreds of kilometers separating Jin Province from the North China Plain, the Japanese army itself was actually a little bit timid. There were not enough troops, and they would never enter easily again.

If you want to fight the Four Elements Group, the best area is the more than 100 kilometers before entering the Taihang Mountains.

Tang Dao knew that the Japanese didn't seem to have sent a reconnaissance plane to conduct reconnaissance, maybe they were paralyzed, waiting for him to walk out of Xinxiang.

At this time, the tens of thousands of troops of the First Group Army involved the main force of the 14th Division of the Japanese Army, but Tang Dao knew that Kenji Doi, the commander of the 14th Division, was definitely a sinister man. Seeing that his reputation was not as high as Seishiro Itagaki, he was vicious. The cunning is far more than that, no wonder Lao Song has lost consecutive battles.

It is quite normal for the 14th Division to slow down its attack on the First Army and draw out an infantry regiment or even a brigade to deal with his four-row regiment.

This is not like in the Guangde Mountains, where the Four Elements Regiment still has time to build fortifications that can defend against heavy artillery. Once surrounded by the Japanese army, the planes in the sky will be bombarded with heavy artillery, and even the elite division will be finished.

Tang Dao must be cautious.

Therefore, starting from the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, the Four Elements Regiment must go out day and night, and never give the Japanese army any chance.

Moreover, who said that Tang Dao was going to Jin Province by taking the seemingly shortest road in Hui County, and asked the whole group to transfer to Xinxiang. Firstly, Tang Dao wanted to send a letter to Lao Song, and the most important purpose was tactical deception.

From the very beginning, Tang Dao never planned to take this road, although the destination has already been set, which is Jingao Guanzhi County.

There, there are both the 23rd Group Army and the 129th Division. More importantly, Tang Dao has taken a fancy to a location that can be used as a military industrial base for the Four Elements Regiment.

If it is managed well, it will continuously provide arms and weapons to the Four Elements Regiment and even all the anti-Japanese troops.

Under the guidance of such tactical thinking, the whole regiment of the Four Elements just disappeared from the sight of the Japanese headquarters that was silently watching them.

During the day, the entire army of the Four Elements Regiment hid in the hillside woodland for repairs. Regardless of carts, horses or people, they were all camouflaged with branches and leaves. Open fires were strictly prohibited in the whole regiment. .

Although it is more difficult and slower, the Japanese cannot find them, even if they start sending fighter planes to reconnaissance the areas where the Four Elements Group may pass.

Facts have proved that Tang Dao guessed right again.

The Japanese are not only thinking about him, they are even anxious because of the disappearance of the Four Elements Group. Even if it is raining lightly, there are reconnaissance planes flying in the sky.

However, due to the lesson on New Year's Eve, the Japanese have also learned to be smart. The fighter planes are basically at an altitude of [-] meters, and they dare not lower their altitude at all.

Those who can see the four-element group that has been disguised and hidden in the grass in the forest have seen a ghost.
