Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 318 Xu Laohu

Jintang Town is not originally a traffic thoroughfare. The town is not big and there are not many pedestrians coming and going. I am afraid that there is an extra dog in the town. In less than half a day, everyone in the town will know whether it is a male dog or a female dog. What is the color of the coat?

Come in that direction.

There are so many of them, all of them are strong and strong men. They spend a lot of money. At first glance, they are not businessmen. They also speak with foreign accents. They are conspicuous wherever they go. There is such a sense of shady origins. I can't believe it.

It doesn't even attract attention.

The Red Army is really powerful. Logically speaking, they are all foreigners. How long have they been in northern Shaanxi? They mingle with the people, like a family, and willingly deliver news and intelligence to the Red Army, and act as their eyes and ears.

Therefore, the Generalissimo has millions of troops, but he can do nothing about it. The revolutionary theory of the Chairman is not only the nemesis of the Generalissimo, but also a lingering nightmare for the Japanese. Looking at all the countries in the world, there is no one who can surpass him.

, a great man of a generation, indeed extraordinary.

Why are you nervous? I am not here to fight. I originally wanted to contact the Red Army. They came to me on their own initiative. I am in harmony with my mind and don’t have to search everywhere. If it were not for the Red Army’s armed forces, the town would have been in chaos by now.

There was fire and smoke everywhere, and women's screams could be heard.

Based on this, Tang Qiuli could definitely conclude that these were the troops of the Red Army. He really didn't take it to heart at all and fell asleep hazily again.

There was a gentle knock on the door, and Shanhu asked angrily: "Who is it?" "I, the owner of our store, have something to do, please open the door!" The boss's voice came from outside the house.

Shan Hu keenly heard the slight footsteps and slightly rapid breathing coming from the yard. There were quite a few people, and Shan Hu had already smelled the smell of gunpowder emitted by the guns.

Among them, only the veterans who have climbed out can have such keen insight and sense of smell.

Shan Hu turned his head to look at Tang Qiuli, and winked at a soldier, who went over and opened the door.

When he opened the door, he didn't pull it open rashly, but flipped the latch with his left hand and pulled the door open. At the same time, he took half a step back to the side. His body was covered by the door leaf. Because he didn't hold a weapon, his right hand became a fist.

Tuck it around your waist, ready to hit at any time.

These movements were done in one go and coherently, showing the natural instincts developed through rigorous training. Tang Qiuli, who was awakened by the knock on the door, saw all this and couldn't help but exclaimed, Shan Hu is a special guard soldier.

We have put in a lot of hard work.

The door was pushed open with great force, and the first thing that came in were two black muzzles. Unfortunately, they had lost their target. Then, dozens of servants came in, and the lanterns in their hands illuminated the room.

What came in were some soldiers wearing uniforms of the same style but different colors. The red stars on their hats showed their identities. These Red Army soldiers were obviously southerners. They were generally short, but they exuded an aura of battle-hardened soldiers.

His vigor and murderous spirit cannot be developed without a long battlefield career.

They vigilantly pointed their guns at the soldiers who were still lying on the kang. In their hearts, they also had the same battlefield-experienced feeling, the same taste of iron and blood, for these group of lying people.

The Red Army soldiers who had been fighting for tens of thousands of miles smelled it, which made them even more vigilant.

A young man who seemed to be the team leader, with a rifle slung around his waist, gave an order in a dialect that sounded like that of Hubei and Anhui. Many Red Army soldiers came up and immediately launched a search.

When they found brand-new rifles under the pillows of the special guard soldiers, the atmosphere immediately became tense, and the sound of guns being pulled was heard in the room.

However, the soldiers did not resist, which made them relieved. Their attention was quickly attracted by the rifles they found. This kind of brand-new rifles had probably never been seen in their army, and they were all German origin.

The weapons produced by military personnel all have the same preferences.

At this time, a middle-aged man came in from the outside. He had bright eyes and an intimidating temperament. He also had a shell gun hanging on his waist. The young Red Army cadre leading the team called him captain.

Tang Qiuli stood up and told the Red Army commander his identity and the purpose of coming here. Professor Ouyang had been active in this area for many days without any difficulties or restrictions from the Red Army. It can be seen that the Red Army also welcomes these university professors.

Come to this poor valley to develop resources.

He said that he was an overseas Chinese who had returned from overseas. He hired Professor Ouyang and others to develop local resources and invest in setting up factories there. It was a matter of course and there were no flaws. As for those weapons, it is better to explain that in the turbulent era, his entourages carried them with them.

Carrying light weapons for self-defense is understandable and justified.

At that time, the wealthy families did not recruit gunners to look after the homes and courtyards to protect the safety of their own family. Otherwise, they would become the fat meat in the mouths of the bandits and be slaughtered by others.

The atmosphere calmed down, but there was no intention of returning the shell guns to the guards, and Tang Qiuli did not raise this request.

From the mouth of the commander of the Red Army named Wu, I learned what happened.

As soon as Tang Qiuli and the others entered Jintang Town, the local people noticed that something was wrong. The boss's warm hospitality was to stabilize them. By this time, the person who reported the news had already traveled more than ten miles. After finding the Red Army,

After describing the situation, the leaders of the Red Army attached great importance to it. Captain Wu led a reinforced regiment and surrounded Jintang Town overnight.

Tang Qiuli asked carefully and found out that the Red Army unit in this area was the 25th Red Army, and its commander was Xu Haidong.

This is incredible. General Xu Haidong, nicknamed Xu Laohu, is a shining star in the Chinese People's Liberation Army.

The leader of the Communist Party of China, Li Desheng, praised General Xu Haidong as "who made great contributions to the Chinese revolution," while Li Desheng's lifelong political enemy, the Chairman of the National Committee of the Communist Party of China, called General Xu Haidong "one of the great harms to Chinese civilization." General Xu Haidong, a fifty-five-year-old general,

An immediate relative died under the Chairman's sword.

The 25th Red Army, among which hundreds of senior generals of the Chinese People's Liberation Army came out, was famous for its powerful combat effectiveness during the Red Army period. Among the four Red Army units that participated in the Long March, the 25th Red Army

This iron army that came out of Hong'an, Hubei Province, created several historical records.

As a partial division with only more than 3,000 people, this iron stream set out the latest and arrived in northern Shaanxi the earliest. The main Red Army of the three routes lost most of its troops along the way. Only this lonely iron stream fought bloody battles all the way and the number of people was reduced when it met Liu Zhidan.

There were actually more than 800 more soldiers than when they set off from Hubei. Not only that, a base in southern Shaanxi was left behind during the Long March, which brought fresh blood to the Chinese revolution.

This unit has made extraordinary contributions to the Chinese revolution. Li Desheng led the reduced Shaanxi-Gansu detachment of the Red Army. When it arrived in northern Shaanxi, there were only more than 3,000 people left, and the strength of the 25th Red Army that arrived earlier was not yet strong.

Being strong can be said to mean that the soldiers are weak, the generals are crippled, the men are trapped and the horses are exhausted, and the muscles and bones are injured.

The 25th Red Army, a unit of Zhang Guotao's Red Fourth Front Army, had no selfish motives. From the only 7,000 yuan of military expenses, it gave 5,000 yuan to those who were so poor that they couldn't even wear clothes.

On the Central Red Army, the gruel was gone.

Those who had an integrated system were organized into the Central Red Army and renamed the Fifteenth Army Corps. Only then did Li Desheng have the strength to rebuild the Red Army with two army groups, which also gave the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China at that time a force directly under its own authority.

With the rise of the anti-Japanese army, Sanyuan swore an oath, the 25th Red Army was organized into the 344th Brigade of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army and advanced into the 800-mile-long Taihang Mountains on the roof of North China to defeat the Japanese invaders. Later, the main force was led by General Huang Kecheng and headed south.

He established the Anti-Japanese Base Area in Northern Jiangsu and organized it into the Third Division, the ace main force of the New Fourth Army. It galloped among the rivers, lakes and harbors, killing the Japanese aggressors in fear.

During the three-year civil war, as the War of Liberation continued, 35,000 soldiers of the Third Division of the New Fourth Army boarded ships and crossed the sea, marched quickly by land and sea, and advanced into the Northeast. They became the first Japanese army to enter the Northeast, with the largest number of people, the most complete organization, and the strongest combat effectiveness.

The main force made great contributions to the Japanese occupation of the entire Northeast.

This is an ace unit that is loved, cherished, and used easily by all the leaders of the Communist Party of China and the generals of the People's Liberation Army. The only exception is probably the one who is jealous of General Xu Haidong, but he has to reuse this ace unit.

For such a heroic unit with outstanding merits and a legendary general with outstanding military exploits, Tang Qiuli had admired him for a long time. How could he let go of this opportunity? He asked Commander Wu to meet with Commander Xu Haidong. He had something to do.

Discuss things together.

Commander Wu looked at Tang Qiuli in surprise. He was quite puzzled by his request and did not understand his intention. He reasoned that the military commander was busy. After Tang Qiuli's repeated requests, Commander Wu

promise.

In order to express his gratitude to Commander Wu, Tang Qiuli said that he would give the thirty original German-made rifles carried by his attaché to the Red Army for free to improve the equipment level of the Red Army.

The mountain tiger on the side quickly shrank his tall body back. He was afraid that Tang Qiuli would be too generous and donated the heavy machine gun in his hand. The entire special guard was really using his bare hands. Fortunately,

Tang Qiuli did not mention this matter, and Shan Hu breathed a sigh of relief.

However, these Red Army soldiers seemed to be very interested in the long thing in Shan Hu's hand, which was tightly wrapped in cloth. They couldn't help but look at it in front and behind. Captain Wu also noticed the big thing in Shan Hu's hand.

, frequently signaling Tang Qiuli with his eyes.

However, they had just donated 30 brand new German-made rifles, and they seemed embarrassed to start exploring the details of Shan Hu's possession again, and his expression was rather hesitant.

Tang Qiuli understood what Captain Wu meant. If he didn't let the other party see what happened, he would eventually worry about it in his heart. He signaled Shan Hu to show the true face of the guy in his hand.

Shan Hu reluctantly opened the cloth wrapping the heavy machine gun. After seeing clearly the guy in Shan Hu's hand, these Red Army soldiers, from regimental commanders to ordinary soldiers, were completely shocked. They had seen this kind of gun before. At best, they had seen it.

Water-cooled Maxim heavy machine gun.

I have never heard of this kind of Japanese 92 heavy machine gun, let alone seen it. However, with the intuition of a soldier, I instinctively feel that the power of this big guy must be amazing and its weight is not light.

The big man held it in his hand like a straw stick, as light as nothing. When he looked at Shan Hu, he had a strange feeling.
