Age of Rebirth

Among the more than 3000 troops of the First Brigade directly under the Independent Division who searched for the remnants of the No.15 Army, Captain Cao Guozhu, the commander of the third regiment, the fourth battalion and the first company, was undoubtedly lucky. The combat team he led was in the core area of ​​the Duyun battlefield. Accidentally caught a big fish.

Cao Guozhu roughly understood what the commander said from the mouths of the three Japanese prisoners who were screaming wildly. They immediately stopped a few soldiers who were about to kill the prisoners. Of the two corpses with the command knife inserted, one is the commander of the Japanese No.15 Army Lieutenant General Yamashita Fufumi, and the other is the commander of the Lieutenant General Gong Qi.

Cao Guozhu said to the soldiers excitedly: "We caught a big fish, these two dead guys. One is Fengwen Yamashita, and the other is Gong Qi, the head of the division. These three prisoners can't be killed. Take them to the division commander. Go, it’s useful to keep it, and send these two radio stations together, just wait for the teacher to make meritorious service for you!”

When the soldiers heard this, they cheered loudly, and they all came to the front to take a closer look at Fengwen Yamashita, who committed suicide by caesarean section, and the ace commander of the Japanese army who was boasted by the little devil. run?Fighting all the way over aggressively, and finally ended up like this, he deserved it!

Cao Guozhu directed the soldiers to carry the radio station and the corpses of the two Japanese commanders. He also carefully told them not to miss a piece of paper. At the end, he checked it himself to make sure that nothing was missed, and led the soldiers to evacuate In the cave, suddenly, a burst of noisy footsteps came in from outside, it seemed that many people had entered the cave. [

More than a dozen large flashlights shone over, dazzling Cao Guozhu and the soldiers for a while. The enemy and us were unknown, so Cao Guozhu yelled "Warning".The soldiers immediately fell down on the spot, pointing their guns at the comer.

Before Cao Guozhu could ask a question, a rough voice from the opposite side yelled very impolitely: "The one on the other side is from that part? Sign up quickly, otherwise, I will be impolite!" Cao Guozhu heard.Don't worry, it's not the Japanese army.At the same time, he was amused and a little angry.

What kind of people are coming from the opposite side, opening their mouths is not human, and besides, they have no military common sense.If he was the Japanese army hiding in the cave, he would have reimbursed more than half of them in just one turn. He kept an eye on it and shouted loudly, "You belong to that part. Report your serial number!"

The rough voice said cursingly: "Hey, I'm still playing with me on a regular basis. Listen carefully. I am a unit commanded by General Liu of the Central Army's Qiannan Defense Line East Route Army, and the No. 11 Group Army Military Headquarters Guard Yes, I am Zhang Tiren, the head of the colonel, which part do you belong to?"

Cao Guozhu replied: "We are the first company of the third regiment and fourth battalion of the 19st Brigade directly under the Independent Division. I am Captain Cao Guozhu, the company commander. It turned out to be the friendly army!" Cao Guozhu was puzzled while signaling the soldiers to put away their guns. of.Isn't it the No.11 Army of the Central Army?When did you change the No.[-] Army?

The head of the regiment named Zhang Tiren said: "It turns out that he is a brother of the Independent Division. The friendly army," he said.More than 200 Central Army soldiers broke into the cave, and the head of the regiment Zhang also walked up to Cao Guozhu with his hands behind his back, looked him up and down, and forced a smile that was uglier than crying.

Cao Guozhu also took a good look at him. Zhang Tiren, the head of the Central Army who had never met before, and who was annoying just by listening to his voice, Zhang Tiren had a thick body and a big bald head. He was fat, with a greasy face, a pair of small triangular eyes on his big fat face, a fierce look on his face, and a bandit look all over his body. He was wearing a colonel's military uniform, which made him look so awkward.

Zhang Tiren said solemnly: "Brothers of the Independent Division, we are here to clear up the remaining Japanese troops under the order of Commander Liu. How about it? Are there any Japanese soldiers in this cave?" The hole shook.

On the ground, the corpses of Fengwen Yamashita and Gong Qi, as well as the three captured Japanese radio operators, all fell into his eyes. Although Zhang Tiren looks rough and full of banditry, he is a sinister and cunning person in his heart However, even though he is a cousin of Liu Zhi and has a foothold in the Central Army, he cannot climb to the throne of regimental commander if he does not have a few tricks.

He will come to things, his mouth is sweet, and he often pours ** soup into Liu Zhi's ears. In addition, he is ruthless in handling things and never procrastinates. Liu Zhi likes it very much. He is almost half a son. In the group army, there was also the master who walked sideways. With his cronies, he had already made a lot of money, and all the things from the corpses of the Japanese soldiers were put into his pockets.

He came to clear out the remaining Japanese soldiers, and he came here to make money from the dead. When he saw a living Japanese soldier, he didn't even dare to fire a single shot. When I arrived at this cave, I heard noisy voices inside. At first, I thought it was because I encountered a large group of remnants of the Japanese army hiding here.

Zhang Tiren was trembling at that time, and secretly called it unlucky, he was still a company commander, and he heard that the people in the cave spoke Chinese. Zhang Tiren thought it was a member of his own army who had made a fortune in the cave How can I miss such an opportunity, half of the meeting is an old rule, if these guys don't open their eyes, I will snatch it up, and hurriedly brought people over, and ran into Cao Guozhu and the others head-on.

He swept his eyes and instinctively felt that things in the cave were not that simple. There was a radio station, and the command knives on the two dead men shone golden under the light of the flashlight. They should be made of gold. The officer who commands the sword is not a small thing in the Japanese army.

Such a good thing was taken away by the people of the independent division. For such a cheap thing, we have to find a way to get these benefits. After making up his mind, Zhang Tiren pretended to ask casually: "It's still from the independent division. The brothers are amazing, and they killed the Japanese as soon as they took action, so they are still two high-ranking officials!"

How did Cao Guozhu know that this guy had already turned several ghost ideas in his stomach because of his eyesight, and he answered honestly, "I have verified my identity through experience. It is the commander of the No. 15 Japanese army. The commander of the division, Gong Qi, "Cao Guozhu, is also affordable enough. In addition, Zhang Tiren has always had a good attitude, so he didn't think too much about it.

Zhang Tiren's eyes widened in an instant, and his jaw almost fell on his feet in surprise. Fengwen Yamashita also has a lieutenant general and division commander. Be good, this is a great contribution. Give it to Commander Liu, and then report to Generalissimo Jiang You can't get promoted, you can't get promoted, and you can get a general's sign to hang up, and there are huge bonuses. Those two dead people are like a whitewashed ocean!

Zhang Tiren laughed dryly, took out a cigarette, handed it to Cao Guozhu, bent over and lit the fire courteously, and said, "Brother, I want to discuss something with you, brother, I have been out for a long time, and I haven't caught a single Japanese. If you go back like this, you won’t be able to run away and be scolded by your superiors. Otherwise, the head of the brother’s regiment will be slapped. You give me the bodies of these two Japanese, so that I can go back to work, and my brother will not suffer. In this way, I don’t have a big ocean in my hand, so I’ll give you these gold items, we’ll be friends, in the future, when you go to the No.11 Army, mention me Zhang Tiren, there’s nothing I can’t do, how about it?”

Zhang Tiren was full of quack talk, and as he spoke, he took out a few gold rings and a few gold braces from his pocket, with a smile on his face, and looked at Cao Guozhu expectantly. It must have been obtained from some dead Japanese soldiers. Such a person, let alone making friends with him, just listening to him talk, has been disgusting for a long time.

Therefore, Cao Guozhu replied coldly: "I'm sorry, Commander Zhang, our independent division has discipline, so please forgive me for not agreeing to your request." Waved his hands, and then ordered: "Let's go, go back to the brigade headquarters and hand in the task." [

Cao Guozhu and the soldiers packed up the trophies and walked out of the cave without even looking at the soldiers of the Central Army. Zhang Tiren shouted anxiously: "Hey, brother, are you discussing it? If you don't think it is enough, I will Add more," Cao Guozhu didn't even turn his head, he really had no interest in dealing with this kind of person.

In Zhang Tiren's eyes, a fierce light suddenly appeared, and he looked at the backs of Cao Guozhu and the soldiers of the Independent Division with hatred. Such a great contribution was related to his glory and wealth for the rest of his life, so he was taken away by the guys from the Independent Division. In an instant, Zhang Tiren had a vicious thought.

In the wilderness and mountains, the moon is dark and the wind is high, sporadic battles are happening everywhere, who knows how many Japanese people can be encountered, just take advantage of this chaos, and kill these dozens of people, no one knows that it is their own hands , Poisonous husband, damn it, for the rest of my life, I did it!

Zhang Tiren winked at his confidant next to him, raised his pistol, pointed it at Cao Guozhu's back, and shot three times in a row. Seeing that the regiment leader had made a move, these guys pulled the trigger without hesitation, and there was a sinister and intensive attack. The mule, with all kinds of paths, shot towards the back of more than 60 independent division soldiers who were unsuspecting. The mule hit the rock, and a series of sparks popped out, just like the blood gushing out of the young soldiers in the dark night. .

The deafening gunshots and the pungent smell of gunpowder filled the entire cave in an instant. Cao Guozhu never expected that Zhang Tiren, the commander of the Central Army, would slap himself and the soldiers under fire after he rejected his shameful request. Poison hand, at this moment, he regretted it, so he didn't guard against these scum who are more hateful than the Japanese in the Central Army?

He clutched his chest in disbelief, and turned around with difficulty. Beside him was his soldier lying on the ground. Zhang Tiren gritted his teeth, raised his pistol, and shot a few more particles into Cao Guozhu's chest. At the last moment of his life, the question that made his soul uneasy, accompanied him to the end of his life, why did it happen?
