Independence Corps

Chapter 51 Before Dawn (3)
From the Confucius Temple to Shiziling, they encountered a group of enemies. This group of enemies was dispersed by Huang Can from the Confucius Temple. There were about 80 people from the Zhuye side of the 56th Division.The little devil was not familiar with the terrain in this area, and after being scattered, he was fumbling around anxiously like headless chickens.

The opportunity for revenge has come.Bai Jianjiang rushed to the newly appointed brigade commanders Sun and Deng to give instructions, and while the devil was running for his life in a panic, he surrounded him in three directions.In addition to seizing several machine guns, they also accidentally got a small mountain gun.

In this way, Bai Jianjiang and the others fought while walking, seeing a group of devils destroying a group of devils, the fight was both fun and risky.Sun Changgen followed him, which was an eye-opener.Not to mention Gou Sheng and Sandang Zi, after the war, both of them could command the war.Sun Changgen and the one surnamed Deng didn't know Gousheng and Sandangzi well, they thought they were the guards of regiment commander Bai Jianjiang Bai, and respected them very much.Gou Sheng is also not humble, as soon as he is polite, he will follow Bai Jianjiang's example and issue orders. Don't even mention it, Gou Sheng has a special talent for fighting, and he has a very good method of deploying troops. If this kid keeps fighting like this, he will definitely become a man hero.

Later, they met Pu Fa, the deputy head of the 12th Division's security regiment who had escaped from Shiziling, and Bai Jianjiang, who had always respected his brothers in the national army, unexpectedly pointed the gun at his own family.

It was bad luck for Pu Fa, the deputy head of the security regiment, to meet Bai Jianjiang.Pu Fa is a very scheming man, and this kid became the deputy head of the security regiment by virtue of his scheming. Unfortunately, Tan Weiming was not aware of Pu Fa's scheming.

Pu Fa didn't want to follow Tan Weiming to Shiziling at all, or he didn't want to fight this blocking war with the Japanese at all.If Tu Lanlong doesn't even fight, why should he fight?Let Liu Ji get out of the way, let the Japanese drive over directly, and face the 72nd regiment on the mountain? The 72nd Regiment and Niangniangshan Liu Mier can stop it, if they can't stop it, let the Japanese cross Miliang Mountain.Now, the 12th Division has become a target.Pu Fa complained, he had mentioned to Tan Weiming several times, don't fight hard, just put on a show, look, the whole country, which one is not showing off?If they really fight, can Little Japan be so rampant?Tan Weiming almost slapped him, if it wasn't for the face of the deputy teacher Zhuang Guoxiong, Tan Weiming might have slapped him long ago.

Eat food and serve as a soldier, why?Is it just to wear this skin and show it around in front of the common people?
Later, Pu Fa confessed to Tan Weiming, but his brother-in-law Zhuang Guoxiong forced him to confess.In Pu Fa's own mind, he didn't have the slightest idea of ​​what was wrong.

He said to his brother-in-law: "I don't want to wear this skin anymore, I'm going back to my hometown to farm."

Zhuang Guoxiong said viciously: "How dare you! Only your kid was raised by his father and mother, so he is alive, but the others are dead? I'm ashamed of you for looking at your shrunken head."

"Brother-in-law, you don't understand. You are taking your life and giving it to the Japanese for free. No one appreciates it."

Before he finished speaking, Pu Fa received a slap from his brother-in-law. This slap was slapped by the deputy teacher Zhuang Guoxiong on Tan Weiming's behalf.

Pu Fa covered his face, stared at his brother-in-law in astonishment, stared for a long time, and said fiercely: "Forget it, some truths don't make sense to you, you people are only worthy of being martial artists, you have no brains!"

Pu Fa left her brother-in-law sadly, and never mentioned the matter of beating or not to anyone.He dutifully acted as his deputy commander, and he didn't say a word about the war, about Miliang City, including the 11th Army.But in his heart, he believed that Tan Weiming's struggle was futile, and that the 12th Division would be finished, and Tan Weiming would be given to the Japanese for nothing.

Relying on the strength of one division to fight against the enemy is whimsical.You think you are the chairman of the committee, Fu Zuoyi is stronger than you, stronger than you, how about it?You should learn from Yan Zhangguan, never lose, never passive, this is called a hero.Pu Fa hated himself for not following Officer Yan back then, but for a foolish and loyal person like his brother-in-law.My whole life was wronged, Pu Fa sighed to the sky.

Pu Fa did not expect that the task of beating devils would fall to the guards. Tan Weiming went crazy, and Pu Fa decided that Tan Weiming was crazy.The division commander went to the battlefield in person, and brought the guards with him. It's not like fighting a war, it's like fighting the devil for his money.Pu Fa wanted to stay at the division headquarters, so the guard regiment should stay at the division headquarters. This was his logic, but Tan Weiming was the first to name him.

"Pu Fa, you have been a regimental deputy for so many years, and you have never led troops to fight. This time, I will test you."

In a word, Pufa's fate was decided, so he tied his wise head on his waistband.To be honest, at the moment when he stepped onto the front line, Pu Fa's legs were shaking, very violently.When he arrived at Shiziling, Pu Fa looked at the mountain and the devils around him, and he trembled even more.

"Master, this is jumping into the devil's palm!" Pu Fa wanted to remind Tan Weiming that he thought Tan Weiming should give up this adventure and take the initiative to admit his mistake to Tu Lanlong.Was it Tan Weiming's fault? The old commander asked him to go to Jigong Mountain to escort him. How could he not go? If he had gone, the old commander might not have died.Yes, he, Tan Weiming, dissuaded the old commander, and when he dissuaded, Pu Fa was by his side.Tan Weiming said: "Old Commander, the news is not very good recently, you should try to go out as little as possible. To fulfill your wish, choose another auspicious day." How could the old Commander believe his words: "Wei Ming, I still believe others when they are afraid of trouble. If you, Tan Weiming, were afraid of things, I would miss you."

"Old Commander, I'm not afraid. The surroundings are in chaos recently. To be on the safe side, we should stay away from going out."

"Are you here again? Well, if you're afraid, you stay at home. I'll go with Shanyi. Shanyi won't be afraid."

Gu Shanyi took over the conversation and said with a smile: "Of course I'm not afraid, I'm afraid of an egg." While talking, Gu Shanyi and the others surrounded the old commander and walked out.Tan Weiming grabbed the gun and followed out with a dark face.When he was about to leave the butcher's mansion, Zhuang Guoxiong, the deputy commander, chased him out and shouted at Tan Weiming: "Master, call!"

"There's no time, you just pick it up." Tan Weiming said, he got on his horse and followed the old commander.Behind him, followed by a regiment of guards with live ammunition.There was no Pufa in the guard regiment.When Tan Weiming was about to get on his horse, he suddenly said to Pu Fa: "You take a platoon to stay and give me some trouble. If something happens to your brother-in-law, I will cut off your head!"

Pu Fa concluded that Tan Weiming had a ghost in his heart that day. If there were no ghost, he would not have said such a thing, and he would not have allowed a platoon to stay. This was not the case before.

Thinking that this was the end of the matter, Pu Fa led people to patrol the courtyard for a week, and then sent people to visit Liu Ji, everything was peaceful.Can it be too peaceful, the old commander has been in charge of rice and grain for so many years, isn't it all peaceful days?With nothing to do, Pu Fa called a few brothers to play cards in the north room.They played in the dark that day, and they didn't know how many hours they played, and then Pu Fa fell asleep on the poker table with his head on the table.It was not until people woke up from their sleep that they found out that something happened to Jigongshan, and the old commander Tu Zhucheng died!

Another day later, Tan Weiming came back, Pu Fa was surprised, the old commander was killed, how did Tan Weiming come back in good order?At that time Tan Weiming looked very scary, and he was still scary a month later. No one dared to ask, let alone talk about it.It wasn't until Tu Lanlong arrived at the rice grains that Pu Fa heard from his sister that Tan Weiming had the old commander send him to another place on the way that day, and he didn't go to Jigong Mountain with the old commander.

Tan Weiming and Gu Shanyi escorted the old commander to Jigong Mountain. When they passed Fengjia Yatou on the way, a fast horse suddenly came to Meiyuan and sent a message saying that Commander Yan would arrive diagonally opposite Jigong Mountain in the early morning of the next day. The Guanyin Pavilion made a wish and asked to send someone to guard.

Old Commander Tu held the telegram in his hand, pondered for a while, and finally said: "I don't come sooner or later, I just want to join in the fun with me. Wei Ming, you have to work hard, take your people, and go to the Guanyin Pavilion to have a look . Can do something, try to do something for him.”

"Commander..." Tan Weiming hesitated to speak, he was doubting the authenticity of this urgent telegram.

Old Commander Tu waved his hand: "Wei Ming, let's go. After all, he is a big house, and we are just a maid. No matter what, we still have to give enough face, and we can't let others gossip."

Tan Weiming went there resignedly. The Guanyin Pavilion was very lively that day, many good men and women came, and the incense was so burning that it could overwhelm people.Chief Yan didn't come, saying that he changed his mind on the way, so he only sent one of his adjutants to fulfill his wish.After the adjutant went down the mountain with his aides, Tan Weiming heard that something happened to Jigong Mountain!
In any case, Pu Fa believed that Tan Weiming was still responsible, and the young commander had a prejudice against him, so he should.Is it because you didn't protect the old commander well? If you follow the old commander every step of the way, can Tu Lanlong blame you?

While thinking wildly, Pu Fa kept persuading Tan Weiming to leave Shiziling as soon as possible and not to play this kind of game of moths to the flame.But how could Tan Weiming listen to it!
The battle at Shiziling was really brutal. Not only Tan Weiming was crazy, but the little devil was also crazy. In order to compete for Shiziling, the two families used their nursing skills.Relying on the support of heavy artillery, the devils kept throwing bombs at Tan Weiming's side. Tan Weiming almost turned into a lion, roaring and shouting, and put on a posture of fighting for every inch of land with the devils.Finally, Shiziling was occupied by Tan Weiming.The devils fell in large numbers, and half of Pu Fa's guards were also reimbursed.However, when attacking the small hill to the east, Tan Weiming fell for it.

The devil still put on the posture of fighting him to death, forcing him not to relax for a moment. After the fierce fighting all night, the small hill was under his feet, but the surrounding situation changed.While the devils sent people to fight him in a war of attrition and forced him to take the bait, they secretly adjusted their forces and deployed nets everywhere. When Xiaoshantou was in hand, the Fifth Japanese Army Regiment had firmly set down two iron hoops from the outside.The two iron hoops were like iron walls, and Tan Weiming was trapped in Shiziling alive.

Now, Miyata calmed down and ordered the devil soldiers to slow down their attack speed, he wanted to consume Tan Weiming slowly.

If Tan Weiming wanted to regret it, it would be too late.He originally wanted to make a sharp wedge, insert it rigidly into the middle of the enemy, and cut off the enemy's head and body, but it didn't work out, Miyata followed suit and dug a hole for him.

The breakout battle was extremely difficult. In Pu Fa's view, Tan Weiming was desperate. He divided his brothers into three groups and fought outwards from three directions.The first layer of devils was killed, followed by the second layer of devils, followed by the third and fourth layers.Tan Weiming didn't think about the consequences at all, he just hit him blindly.The machine gun was so hot that he couldn't hold it in his hands. He took off his clothes and wrapped it around the handle of the gun.After the hand-to-hand fight, Pu Fa saw with his own eyes that Tan Weiming chopped off the heads of the three little devils with a big knife.The brothers in the guard group were all red-eyed, life and death had long been out of the blue, and the brothers seemed to use the dead body of the devil to fill up the three ditch.Pu Fa thought to himself, he can't follow his fate, he is still young, and he has not had time to marry a wife, so he has to live to marry a wife, no, he still has sons and grandchildren.Died like this, Pu Fa was not reconciled.So taking advantage of the dark night, Pu Fa took some twenty brothers, all of whom didn't want to die, to sneak into the small ditch at the east end of Shiziling.The small ditch had been taken care of during the day, but the devil didn't seem to notice it, and neither did Tan Weiming, there was a small gap left between the two lines of fire.Pu Fa thought to himself, it would be a fate to break through, and if he failed to break through, it would count as a sacrifice for the country.

Thinking of this, Pu Fa cried, how could he sacrifice his life for the country, he wants to be a pillar of the country like Chief Yan!

Fortunately, Pu Fa broke out, and the devils couldn't stand the fierce fighting for two days and two nights. When they heard that Tan Weiming stopped the fire, they hurriedly dropped their guns and went to sleep.When the devils found out, they had escaped from the small ditch, and a group of devils chased after them, screaming, and setting empty guns in the distance. Pu Fa ordered the brothers running behind to shoot, but he died. run forward.The devil was getting closer and closer, and the bullets whizzed past Pufa's ears. A brother was shot, and he fell down after shouting aloud.Another brother followed up and covered him with his body. Pu Fa continued to run. At this time, he had no choice but to run.In this way, more than [-] brothers who escaped with him lost [-] of them, and the remaining two were injured. Pu Fa escaped from Shiziling alive with the other two brothers.

Unfortunately, he met Bai Jianjiang.

Bai Jianjiang stopped Pu Fa with gunshots, and asked him why he ran so desperately?Pu Fa was out of breath and said, "Why, can you survive if you don't run?"

Bai Jianjiang said: "You can't survive if you run. Look behind you. You ran out stepping on the dead bodies of your brothers."

Pu Fa did not dare to look back, looked Bai Jianjiang up and down for a while, concluded that he was not from the 12th Division, and wanted to run away, but was torn off by the collar of the newly appointed brigade commander Sun Changgen.Pu Fa knew Sun Changgen, and Pu Fa knew many people below. He was fine on weekdays. Pu Fa liked to play cards with these people. It was easy to win their money.

"Chang Gen, you bastard, dare to stop my deputy head?"

"You're an idiot, he's the brigade commander now, the leader of the army behind!" Bai Jianjiang scolded viciously.No need for Pu Fa to say it himself, Bai Jianjiang already understood what was going on.Pu Fa scolded: "The brigade commander of the egg, the little company commander thinks I don't know, who is it?"

Bai Jianjiang kicked Pufa down, and asked the two brothers beside him: "Where is Mr. Tan, are you still trapped inside?"

The two soldiers were so frightened that they dared not speak. If they fled during the war, they would be shot.

"Say it, you're dumb!" Brigadier Sun Changgen suddenly became angry, and as he walked over, he slapped the two soldiers.

Only then did the two soldiers tell the story of Shiziling.

Bai Jianjiang was furious: "Okay, futuan leader, the teacher is fighting with the devils, you are lucky, you know you will survive. Stand up and follow me!"

Pu shivered, and got up subconsciously: "Where are you going?"

"Hit the devil, where did it come from, and where did it come from."

"I...won't go." Pu Fa said tremblingly.

"Will you go?" Bai Jianjiang asked again.

Pu Fa glanced at Bai Jianjiang and asked Sun Changgen, "Who is this person?"

Sun Changgen told Pu Fa the truth.After hearing this, Pu Fa laughed out loud: "Damn, deputy head of the 72nd regiment of the Communist Party, if you dare to meddle in the affairs of my 12th division, get out of the way, and I won't let me kill you with a single shot."

As Pu Fa said that, he really took out his gun. He ran too hurriedly just now, and unexpectedly forgot to draw out the gun, and it was still stuck in his waist.

"What if I don't let it go?" Bai Jianjiang glared at him.

"Then let it talk!" Pu Fa said, and was about to pull the trigger, but it was too late, and Bai Jianjiang's gun rang in front of him.Pu Fa stared wide-eyed, but didn't see Bai Jianjiang draw out his gun. How could the gunshot sound in front of him?

Pu Fa fell heavily to the ground, this kind of death was beyond his imagination.When the other two soldiers saw that Bai Jianjiang was serious, they fell to their knees in fright: "We won't run away, we'll fight devils with you, please spare us, sir."

Bai Jianjiang blew on the still smoking muzzle: "Damn it, I wasted a bullet." After cursing, he yelled at the two soldiers, "Bring him to that puddle, he's my family anyway, don't Let the devil's tank run over."

The two soldiers lifted Pu Fa's body and threw it into the puddle. Bai Jianjiang looked up at the sky. It was getting late. If there was any further delay, Tan Weiming might really let the little devil cook dumplings.

"Lead the way ahead!"

If it weren't for Bai Jianjiang, Tan Weiming might not be able to escape Miyata's clutches.Not long after Bai Jianjiang and the others rushed in from the small valley in the east, the encirclement and suppression troops sent by Miyata also arrived, and the two sides immediately started a fierce battle.Seeing someone responding, the national army brothers who were trapped in Shiziling greatly increased their confidence and fought extraordinarily hard.The little devil did not show weakness. Commander Miyata had issued a death order to his subordinates, and Tan Weiming must be wiped out in Shiziling.

"I want Tu Lanlong to know that destroying his division is as easy as pie!"
