Age of Rebirth

Chapter 570: Situation in Haozhou ([-])

The ancient city of Kaifeng was gradually disappearing from sight. Tang Qiuli felt a strong sense of guilt in his heart. It was an extravagant wish to pay homage to the place where Su Dazi died. When will he have free time?He couldn't help but sighed deeply, Qiuquan and Shanhu sat behind him, looked at each other, and they both understood that there was too much emotion in that sigh for the young teacher, the car fell into silence, only the white snow Continuous flashes outside the car.

When the convoy arrived in Shangqiu, it was still in a state of ruins. The city already had vigor and vitality. People who fled their homes at the beginning rushed back one after another and used their own hands to rebuild their homes on the ruins. Although life is suffering, after all, there is no There is no need to worry about being massacred by the trampling of the Japanese invaders. Perhaps, that earth-shattering bloody battle will become the pride of the city and the eternal pride of the citizens. They have dedicated themselves to the nation's war of resistance.

Tang Qiuli was also upset. General Zhang Zizhong was killed here. In just a few hours' drive from Kaifeng to Shangqiu, two of his generals, nearly [-] soldiers, were killed in battle. This was soaked in the blood of the fallen soldiers. Land, he has a naive and strange idea, next spring, when the spring breeze blows and the earth recovers, will the flowers here bloom more vividly?

And all of this was caused by Tang Enbo. This damned guy should have disappeared. Yu Deshui and Shen Jun have been away for a long time. Why hasn't any news come back?In Tang Qiuli's heart, Tang Enbo had already been sentenced to death, and only in this way could he comfort Zhang Zizhong, Su Jingfeng and the spirits of tens of thousands of soldiers. [

Traveling day and night, on the afternoon of January [-]th, Tang Qiuli led the troops and finally arrived at Haozhou. Looking at the smoky Haozhou from a distance, it seemed to be covered with a veil, and the outline could be roughly seen, like The current situation in Haozhou is not very clear. This is a piece of land that penetrates into the territory of Henan. Geographically, it is a remote area in Anhui, and it is far away from Hefei, the capital of Anhui. Maybe this is the mayor named Li Zonghan, dare to One of the reasons for the disturbance, right?

The convoy arrived at the north gate of Haozhou. Those who came here earlier expressed condolences to the officers and soldiers of the Sulu garrison on behalf of Tang Qiuli, and Yu Guanghan, the chief of staff of the independent division who was about to escort the body of General Zhang Zizhong to Dingbian, was looking anxiously in casual clothes. Seeing a long convoy, he hurried up to meet him, with a relieved expression on his face.

He told Tang Qiuli the bad news that the organization of the "Baozhou Anti-Japanese Support Association" had incited tens of thousands of citizens who didn't know the truth. The first attack on the camp area, fortunately the soldiers had been prepared and blocked them with a human wall.

During the physical conflict, many soldiers were injured. Some young officers could no longer control their emotions and shouted for a solution by force. They led many soldiers to petition in front of the regiment headquarters. The crowd was furious. Commander Feng was trying his best to suppress the situation. The troops were about to get out of control, and he was able to come out only after changing into civilian clothes.

A cold light flashed in Tang Qiuli's eyes, and he said to Guanghan, "Guanghan, lead the way, go directly to the corps station!" When Yu Guanghan boarded the car, Tang Qiuli clearly felt that the atmosphere in Haozhou was very abnormal, and the citizens were very concerned about the passing people. The military vehicles all cast disgusted and contemptuous glances, and some even spat fiercely.

Arriving at the station of the Sulu Garrison Corps, Tang Qiuli was also taken aback by the situation in front of him. There were [-] to [-] citizens, holding various banners and shouting slogans. The gate of the camp was crumbling. Using his body to withstand the attack, and to bear the attack of bricks, tiles, etc., he clearly saw that many soldiers had blood on their heads.

The contents of the banners were various, such as "the shame of the nation, the scum of the Communist Party", "unresisting troops, get out of Haozhou" and so on. At a high place, holding a trumpet, the leader shouting slogans vigorously, obviously the organizer.

Tang Qiuli's eyes shot cold light and anger. He got out of the car, took off the Tanglong gun, and fired a burst of fire into the air. Qingyue's gunshots drowned out the slogans of the demonstrators. The man, frightened by the sudden gunshots, froze for a moment, turned his head to look, and saw that it was another group of soldiers, his courage suddenly strengthened.

Immediately point the signs to the new group of soldiers, "Citizens, look at it, the soldiers have shot, they are in one group, and the officials and officials protect each other, and they will play awe-inspiring to us ordinary people. When the Japanese come, they Where are you hiding? Go, let the officials give an explanation!"

Not to mention, this kid's eloquence is good, his enunciation is clear, coupled with the loudspeaker amplification, the signs of the demonstrators immediately came towards Tang Qiuli and them, swarming over, and there was a tendency to surround Tang Qiuli and them in the middle .

Facing more than 100 million Japanese troops, Tang Qiuli did not change his face. How could he be frightened by this battle? He handed Tang Long gun to a guard and stood with his hands behind his back. Tiger has plenty of ways to deal with this kind of situation, Shan Hu gestured towards the troops.

The crowd that was swarming over felt the shadows flickering in front of them. A wall of people stood in front of them like a mountain. The black muzzles of the guns were lifted up in unison. The crowd stopped immediately. They were not afraid of the muzzles of guns. I am also convinced that the soldiers dare not shoot, mainly because of the aura of the soldiers in front of them, not those soldiers who have been besieged by them for most of the day.

The murderous aura of these people radiated out uncontrollably, the smell of iron and blood on their bodies made their hairs stand on end, and their bodies were cold, and their eyes, like knives gleaming with cold light, pierced straight into their hearts, Those who know the goods, when they see these soldiers, they are all officers, there are no big soldiers, and they know that a big man is coming.

For a moment, the courage that had been summoned up just now disappeared with the cold sweat, and he even took a few steps back in fear, as if he wanted to stay away from these officers. It was really uncomfortable to be in front of them. People, looking anxious, were about to agitate, but were suddenly interrupted by a loud voice.

It's Shanhu, this guy, standing there like a hill, the guy in his hand is also penetrating, he is tall and powerful, and his voice is also high, "Vice Chairman of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, Commander-in-Chief of the Yellow River Basin Theater, North China Independent Commander, General Tang Qiuli is here, let your leaders come over and speak!"

The shadow of a famous tree and the name of Tang Qiuli have long spread throughout the country, and large-scale photos have appeared in major newspapers across the country many times. Tens of thousands of people took down Tianjin, and the northern battlefield relied on him for support. Otherwise, the city of Haozhou would have been dominated by the Japanese long ago.

There was a commotion among the crowd, and then they leaned forward. This time, it was not a demonstration, but to see the demeanor of the No. [-] man in the government. In a small Haozhou, such a big man came. It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I missed it. Possibly regretting it for the rest of his life, Tang Qiuli smiled and boarded the car.

"Citizens, the state has state laws, and the army has military regulations. Whether the Sulu Garrison Corps, an independent division, escaped from the battle and feared the enemy like a tiger, has its own opinion. As their division commander, I came from the front line in North China to deal with this matter Yes, I will definitely give everyone a satisfactory answer. What you are doing today is very irrational and I cannot tolerate it. My soldiers will not allow others to bully you. Disband immediately, otherwise, I will order the troops Take tough measures, and all the consequences will be borne by you!"

As soon as these words were said, the righteousness was strict, and the answer was given, and there was also a warning, which immediately shocked everyone. After thinking about it, I was afraid. If these soldiers used guns, they would die without knowing what was going on. Vice Chairman Tang Here, I will not deceive everyone. The demonstrators dispersed immediately. Those boys in Chinese tunic suits and with parted hair, seeing that something was wrong, threw away their horns, immediately got into the crowd, and disappeared among the crowd. [

Qiu Quan gave the team leader a wink, and a dozen soldiers in plain clothes immediately squeezed into the crowd, and the three of them stared at one of them. These boys thought they had their own tricks, but who knew that their whereabouts had already fallen in the special warfare detachment In the eyes of soldiers.

The gate of the camp was wide open, and Feng Zhi'an led a group of officers to greet him. Seeing Tang Qiuli, Feng Zhi'an had mixed feelings, Tang Qiuli hurriedly took his hand, "Old General Feng, you have been wronged, Sulu guards Commanders at all levels of the Corps, everyone has been wronged! Please forgive Qiu Li for being one step too late and causing everyone to suffer innocent injustice."

After finishing speaking, Tang Qiuli respectfully saluted these officers. All the soldiers of the guard brigade behind him also saluted in unison. Their strong arms were like a forest being waved. Soldiers, deserve the respect of these elites in the army.

Enough, from Feng Zhian down, all the officers of the Sulu Garrison Corps burst into tears. The soldiers are not afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice. Brother Wan Duo, who lived and died, was scolded for fleeing from the battlefield. The grievance and resentment in their hearts made them feel like a knife, and they lost control of their emotions.

The teacher is here, and the teacher understands our situation. The strong men turned their grievances into two lines of tears, and the soldiers whose heads were broken beside them cried even more. It's also wet. These days, these soldiers who bleed and sacrificed have suffered so much. He completely understands the feelings of the soldiers at this moment.

Feng Zhi'an put away his tears. This veteran general who was over half a century old did not feel that he was losing his dignity because he shed tears in front of the young Tang Qiuli. In his heart, he was full of reverence for Tang Qiuli. He said loudly : "All soldiers, put away your tears, don't let the division commander see the old 29th Army soldiers' bastards, cheer up, and go to the battlefield tomorrow to kill the little devils!"

Following Feng Zhian's words, the atmosphere of the audience changed. A high-spirited fighting spirit rose from these soldiers. Tang Qiuli nodded secretly. Bloodline, there is a kind of unyielding energy in his bones.

Feng Zhi'an invited Tang Qiuli to enter the camp, Tang Qiuli held him back with a smile, "Commander Feng, come, come with me to meet someone!" Without that person, after letting his soldiers bleed, he would suffer all kinds of grievances and bullying , can still be safe, this person, Tang Qiuli must see immediately.
