Chapter 285 Thunder Thunder in Northern Henan 23
Li Qinglin thought for a while and said, "Before the Japanese have not figured out what's going on, let's give it a try."
Yu Deshui was shocked and said, "Sir Li, we are so little by little, and then we are rushing over and aren't we just going to get into the tiger's mouth?"
Li Qinglin smiled and said, "We are cavalrymen, we go quickly and walk quickly. We are not trying to beat them up, but we are just telling the Japanese who are in Shuizhi. There are troops in Shuizhi at present."
Yu Deshuidao: "How could the Japanese believe there are troops here anyway?"
Li Qinglin pointed to Yu Deshui's military uniform and said, "You are all wearing the uniforms of the Imperial Army, and our people are wearing the uniforms of the National Army. As long as you appear on the battlefield, the Japanese will definitely think that the puppet army of Shuizhi may also participate in the uprising. Will they give up the supervision of the First Division and block the uprising troops?"
Yu Deshui patted his thigh and said, "Sir Li, you're right. Let's go and have a few more things now."
Gathering the cavalry together, Li Qinglin mobilized before the war: "Brothers, our mission this time is to take over the team that will revolt anyway. Now the Japanese in Water Train seem to know that something big happened there. Let's attack them first and buy some time for the uprising troops."
Seeing that someone was hesitating, Li Qinglin continued: "There are many enemies and there are fewer people, but this time we are not rushing into the enemy to kill one's life or death, but we are making a gesture to confuse the enemy."
"I order: load all cavalry bullets, quickly approach the enemy, then quickly fire all the bullets in the gun, and finally quickly leave the battlefield." Li Qinglin ordered.
After a burst of "Ka Li Kazha" loading bombs, Li Qinglin ordered: "All cavalry, rush with me." After saying that, he rushed out of the woods with one horse.
In the direction of water control, the Japanese and puppet troops were in a state of chaos. The cavalry led by Li Qinglin seemed to fall from the sky, making these Japanese at a loss.
According to Li Qinglin's deployment before the war, everyone quickly approached the enemy and emptied the bullets in the bullet bay in the shortest time. Without waiting for the enemy to respond correctly, Li Qinglin led the cavalry and left again.
Most of Li Qinglin's men used box cannons with very short range. After this round of shooting, it did not cause much casualties to the Japanese and puppet troops, but there were cavalry wearing Imperial Army uniforms, which the Japanese could see clearly.
After Li Qinglin's troops left, the Japanese accelerated their disarming progress and had a worse attitude towards the puppet army, because they had already believed that Li Ying's first division also had troops to revolt anyway.
Li Qinglin, who ran to the distance, took the cavalry around and hid back into the woods. Standing at a high place and observed from a distance from the telescope, watching the Japanese army's actions as if they were facing a great enemy and the aggrieved look of being disarmed puppet troops, Li Qinglin laughed out loud.
However, there were more and more Japanese aircraft in the sky, and they "buzzed" through the air from time to time. Li Qinglin judged that the Japanese on the ground still did not dare to act rashly, and only the Japanese aviation troops at Zhangde Airport began to patrol the real situation.
It was almost noon, and the infantry led by Ding Goudan and the others finally arrived panting. Although there were Japanese planes in the sky, there were now green gauze tents everywhere. Under the leadership of Ding Goudan and the others, the infantry hid in the green gauze tent from time to time. Although it took a little time along the way, there was no loss of personnel.
There were dozens of infantrymen, but Li Qinglin still asked them to hide in the green gauze tent. Seeing Li Qinglin's calmness, Ding Goudan asked strangely: "Boss, aren't we here to fight? Why are you so idle?"
Li Qinglin laughed and said, "This battle has been fought. Let's have a meal first, and then go to pick up the uprising troops after dinner."
Ding Goudan said a little embarrassedly: "Boss, we were on an emergency this time. We didn't bring rice, flour, or dry food. Where can we get food?"
Li Qinglin patted his head and said, "Even this puppet army is correct. Are those ordinary people unwilling to support the national army? You go to the people's house and we will pay for it and let them cook it before sending it."
Ding Goudan was a little skeptical, so he led a few soldiers to a village. After a while, Ding Goudan ran back quickly and said in surprise: "Boss, the matter has really come true. We should not even take the cooks in the future."
"You believe it now? All Chinese people are patriotic, and traitors are the minority after all." Li Qinglin said with a smile.
With the help of the people, the lunch of the hundred people was soon ready. Although Japanese planes flew by the sky from time to time, the troops quickly ate lunch in the stuffy and hot green tent, and then bypassed Shuizhi Town and headed east.
During the gap between the Japanese plane reconnaissance, the troops marched all the way. When it was almost time for the afternoon... At the time of the bell, Dong Zhao sent cavalry to send news that they welcomed Wu Chaohan's second division, and the third division was retreating along another road under the command of Huang Yuzhou.
At almost five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Qinglin and his friends finally met the Second Division led by Wu Chaohan and Xu Jingyuan. At present, the troops brought out by the Second Division have more than 1,000 officers and soldiers.
Wu Chaohan finally saw the national army that was responding. He was very excited and held Li Qinglin's hand tightly and kept shaking, and his troops were cheering.
In order to get out of the dangerous area as soon as possible, although the officers and soldiers of the Second Division did not have lunch, they still carried out forced marches, and the troops continued to bypass Shuizhi Town and headed west.
Dong Zhao quietly approached Li Qinglin, he looked at Li Qinglin with a gaze and asked in a low voice: "Boss, what should I do with the cavalry of the Third Division? Should I let them go back again?"
Li Qinglin smiled and said, "What's wrong? Are you jealous? Are you attracted to other people's cavalry?"
Dong Zhao smiled dryly and said, "Boss, you know how difficult it is to train a qualified cavalry. This is a veteran of a squad. You can fight as long as you pull it out. Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."
Li Qinglin's heart was also moved. He said to Dong Zhao: "Party Leader Dong, if you want to keep others, you have to keep their hearts first. You can communicate with them later. If you can stay, you can't tie them up with a rope."
Seeing that Li Qinglin had basically agreed, Dong Zhao was overjoyed and said, "Boss, don't worry, I will do my best to keep them."
Li Qinglin thought for a while and said, "Tell Yu Deshui that as long as he and his brothers stay, I will be promoted to him as a platoon leader. If he can arrange a platoon cavalry, I will be promoted to him as a platoon leader; if he can arrange a company, I will be promoted to him as a company commander."
"Yes", Dong Zhao stood attentively and saluted, and then ran away happily.
The troops of the Third Division now don’t know where the march is. Fortunately, Li Qinglin is also a national army. Dong Zhao didn’t have much effort to keep Yu Deshui and his cavalry squad, and Yu Deshui was promoted to the platoon of the cavalry platoon as he wished.
Wu Chaohan's second division set out from Fucheng in the morning. Apart from the Japanese planes firing and bombing in the air, all the Japanese and puppet troops on the ground did not dispatch.
The sudden uprising of the puppet army and the raid by Li Qinglin in Shuizhi Town made the suspicious Japanese even more panic and began to doubt all the puppet army around them.
In addition to seizing the puppet army's weapons in Shuizhi and surveillance of Li Ying, the Japanese also detained Li Tai, the commander of the Second Army of the puppet army, and his troops were all contained within the military camp. In addition, there was a local traitor, Wang Zi, who was also suspicious of the Japanese army. The Japanese also sent a force to monitor Wang Ziquan's troops.
In this way, all the Japanese troops were used to control the existing puppet troops, and they could not withdraw their troops from the rebels to pursue them. They were unwilling to accept their senior officials and escorts to be killed, so they had to send planes to strafuse and bomb.
It was midsummer, with trees and grass growing tall seedlings. The endless green gauze tent on the Central Plains became the hiding place of the uprising troops. When Wu Chaohan's troops encountered Japanese planes reconnaissance and bombing, they all hid in the woods or fields. The Japanese planes in the sky could not find the target, and some blind strafing bombings did not achieve any substantial results.
It was getting late and the Japanese planes in the sky became less and less, and the troops began to march continuously.
At around 11 o'clock in the evening, all the troops finally returned to Sangyu Town.
With so many troops suddenly added, the accommodation of the troops became a big problem. All the people in Sangyu Town were mobilized, and they spent the night to snatch the tired and hungry uprising officers and soldiers of the Second Division, burned hot water, and cooked supper.
The people of Sangyu Town have given great enthusiasm for these lost officers and soldiers. Many families sent food and refused to accept any money. The sincere support of the people touched the rebel officers and soldiers. They all expressed that they would resolutely fight the Japanese in the future and be a real Chinese.
The troops were almost placed in a hurry, and Pan Kewei came overnight with Fu Zihua.
After an overnight meeting, Wu Chaohan decided to stay in the first war zone sequence, and this news will be communicated to the first war zone by Pan Kewei on radio. However, Wu Chaohan pointed out that his troops are currently incompatible and have low combat power, and he needs to go to the rear for additional reorganization.
Pan Kewei naturally agreed to Wu Chaohan's request.
After sending Wu Chaohan away, Li Qinglin asked Pan Kewei: "Why didn't Chen Xuyun come back? Where has their third division been now?"
The extremely tired Pan Kewei sat on the chair. He picked up the cup and drank cold tea in big mouthfuls, and finally said, "I just rushed back from Huang Yuzhou, and Chen Xuyun is still staying with them to do work. Huang Yuzhou's ministry has decided to head to the northern part of Lin County, where the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army was supported."
Then he sighed and said, "We're too late to do it. The Communist Party is still powerful. Such troops have been taken away by them."
Li Qinglin remembered Peng Keren and Ning Mingbo, two Communist Party members in Huang Yuzhou's team, who had public identities. He said to Pan Kewei: "I have been working at Huang Yuzhou for a long time, so we are really late."
Pan Ke cheered up for a moment and gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what, his Eighth Route Army is still under the leadership of the Military Commission, right? I don't think they can eat this army so easily."
Li Qinglin quickly changed the subject and said, "This Wu Chaohan's troops are about to leave. I have become the front line of fighting against the Japanese. Brother Pan, do you know where my team has now?"...
