Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 1356 Exceeding Expectations
At around three o'clock in the morning, in the fields around Zhangshu County, there were already early risers working hard in the dark with wind lanterns in order not to miss the farming season.When the Japanese army was raging in Jiangxi, many people in Jiujiang, Nanchang, and Xinyu left their homes and took their families with them to Yunnan, Sichuan, or Guangdong in order to avoid the military disaster.Among them, most of the people east of the Ganjiang River chose to go to Guangdong.Then, they encountered the guerrillas of the Xuebing Army who went northward first.Under the persuasion of the Xinghuo brigade, and seeing the powerful armed forces of the cadet army, they returned home one after another. Now, in order to catch up with the farming season and not miss the cultivation of the crops, they can only work from dawn to dusk.

It was Chu Tiange's idea to let the Xinghuo Brigade persuade the locals to return home.The reason why he wanted to do this was naturally that he didn't want to lose the soil of guerrilla warfare.The actions of the guerrillas are generally a bit cruel, but in connection with the slogan of "all people resist Japan" that the Chongqing man shouted, it seems understandable to do so.

Of course, the most important reason why the locals finally chose to stay and began to devote themselves to farming was because they saw hope in the Xue Bingjun.Ouyang Yun is very strict about military discipline, Chu Tiange learns from him in everything, especially in the control of military discipline.The common people do not have high demands on the army and the government. Once the military discipline of the guerrillas is guaranteed, word of mouth will naturally come.Now, when the vast majority of people in the east of the Ganjiang River see soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms, they no longer flinch and dodge, but will go up to them, hand them a bowl of tea, and ask: "Brother , drink some water!"

When a platoon of scouts from the vanguard of the Eighth Division of Zhang Tianquan came roaring from afar on two-wheeled and three-wheeled motorcycles, the people working in the fields raised their waists and hands because they had seen such advanced gadgets before. Putting up a pergola to look over, the sharp-eyed shouted: "It's the Xuebing Army!" "Xuebingjun, didn't Commander Chu's troops go to Nanchang?" The machine is faster than a galloping horse, and it is easy to travel thousands of miles a day. Even if it goes around from Nanchang to Jiangxi (the west bank of the Ganjiang River) and back, it only takes half a day. I think it must be Commander Chu’s troops!" There are well-informed people The old farmer said with certainty. "I heard that there is a war going on in the Gao'an area. Let's ask. If the student army can't fight, we should be prepared!" A middle-aged man said. "Nonsense, the apprentice army will not be able to defeat those little devils? Bah, bah, the merciful Guanyin Bodhisattva, children speak without restraint, children speak without restraint—" "Old man, who do you call a child? Just forty."

... The quarrel in the field became louder and louder, which attracted the attention of the students. "Tu Tu Tu—" A two-wheeled motorcycle in the lead suddenly drove to the side of the road, and then the faucet tilted, and the light shone on the two people who were arguing.In the light, the students identified each other clearly, and Fang Xiaoyun, the platoon leader sitting in the back seat, asked loudly: "Old man, I want to ask you something, how far is Zhangshu County from here?"

What he asked was the old farmer who was called "old man" by the middle-aged people, and was affectionately called "old man" by the soldiers. "Sir, then we're going to Zhangshu County, which is ten miles ahead. Sir, I heard that there is a war going on in Gao'an, do you know if we won?"

"Thank you! I will win!" Fang Xiaoyun replied loudly, then took out a microphone from under his body, and reported to the division.

Soon, Fang Xiaoyun and others left in the direction of Zhangshu County. The "old man" was immediately complacent because he had a conversation with the students just now, but when they were discussing why these students came, the sound of rumbling engines came from the southwest direction, and the next moment, dozens of them The light came into their eyes, but it was Zhang Tianquan who arrived with a large army from the Eighth Academy.

The Eighth School Division quickly drove over, followed by Ouyang Yun and his direct troops, followed by the Seventeenth School Division and the Eighteenth School Division.Armored troops equivalent to four divisions rumbled past with thousands of headlights. The "old man" and others were stunned, their jaws almost fell to the ground without realizing it.

It was already around 04:30 when Xue [-]th Division drove away from the crowd.At this time, a ray of dawn had already appeared in the east, and then, the dark clouds all over the sky became colorful.Watching the [-]th Xueshi drive away to the north, the "old guy" rubbed his eyes and asked the middle-aged man, "I read that right? There are Western devils with high noses and blond hair?"

The middle-aged man was also frightened. He nodded repeatedly and said, "No, isn't the Xuebing Army from our China? What, why are there Western devils?"

Ouyang Yun can definitely give him a comprehensive answer to this question.But at this moment, our Lord Commander-in-Chief was fidgeting with his brows furrowed, but he didn't have the heart to pay attention to these things.

Ouyang Yun originally thought that the three divisions under his command would arrive in Gao'an at around three o'clock at the latest because of their almost fully mechanized equipment.Then, at four o'clock, he could reach the area west of Lions Gate and complete the encirclement of the 33rd Division-but the fact gave him a heavy blow.Now, it's already 04:30, and the eighth masters at the front have only just arrived in Xinjie Township, Gao'an, which is still nearly [-] kilometers away from Gao'an City.And it takes two hours away from Lions Gate.

This made him very disappointed, and at the same time, he was tossing and turning. The time agreed with Chu Tiange was to arrive at the battlefield at three o'clock in the morning, but now more than an hour had passed, and the forward troops were still two hours away from the battlefield. It made him very worried about whether Feng Lanshan and the others could withstand the Japanese attack.

The difference between the actual marching speed and the calculated speed is so large. The key to the investigation is that there is too little training in normal times.This directly led to the time consumed by refueling, clearing and readjusting the fleet far exceeding the budget.Another point is that the failure rate of the chariot has also greatly exceeded expectations - Ouyang Yun was summing up the reasons, and You Xiaolian who was sitting behind suddenly shouted: "Commander-in-Chief, Master Liu has something to report to you!"

Pan Meiren did not march this time, so You Xiaolian, the head of the lady's cloud guard regiment, also served as Ouyang Yun's secretary to help him handle matters related to external liaison.

Ouyang Yun took the microphone, but did not hear the sound, Gang Yao pressed the send button to ask a question, and suddenly there was a loud noise in his ear, and the next moment, there was a faint voice calling "Master", he was startled, and immediately pressed the button. Press the send button and shout: "I'm Ouyang Yun, who's on the other side, please call back!"
