Base System of Bashu Heroes

Chapter 71: Lijiazhuang Tragedy

Feng Huaizhu's tone was very firm, as if there was no room for negotiation. Liu Tianchu approached with a smile. "Brother Huaizhu, if I trade the artillery regiment of the Independent Brigade with you, would you consider it?"

Replacing one person with the artillery regiment? That’s ten rocket launchers! Chu Tianbang yelled at that time: "I don’t agree, what are you doing? He is very powerful, but he can’t match the role of the artillery regiment. Battalion Commander, your brain

broken?"

A hint of unnoticeable joy flashed across Li Sixin's face, but it disappeared in an instant.

At this time, Feng Huaizhu hesitated. Changing the commander from one artillery regiment to another was too tempting. He looked helplessly at Li Sixin, who remained expressionless.

Liu Tianchu stepped up his offensive. "Well, I'm adding five general-purpose machine guns. That's it, deal!" After saying that, he didn't care whether Feng Huaizhu agreed or not. He took Li Sixin's shoulders and left, leaving Feng Huaizhu standing there in a daze.

As he walked, Liu Tianchu said to the signal soldiers beside him: "Notify the 133rd and 134th Divisions that the entire army is marching to Jinan. All Japanese damaged vehicles, tanks, and armored vehicles, as long as they are made of iron, will be transported to Xuzhou." He then said to Feng Huaizhu: "

If you take over Lanfeng, Yuncheng, Guide, and Kaifeng lines, the Fourteenth Division will collapse, and the eastern Henan flank will be safe."

Liu Tianchu said it almost in a joking tone, and Feng Huaizhu couldn't help but laugh, interjecting: "Why don't we take advantage of the situation and pursue it?"

Liu Tianchu thought for a while: "Leave it to Tang Enbo and let him owe me a huge favor." After saying that, he was suddenly startled, and then quickly took out the intercom. "Ronghua? Ronghua? Please answer if you hear me?"

Ronghua said briefly and flatly, "Yeah!"

Liu Tianchu suppressed his joy and said calmly: "You will take a detour near Zhengzhou and cross the river at Fenglingdu. Wherever it is safe and not blocked by the Japanese army, I will go and pick you up."

"Yeah!" Ronghua still agreed briefly and plainly.

After the call ended, Liu Tianchu stood blankly, holding the intercom in his arms in confusion and loss. He could not understand Ronghua's heart, and at the same time he did not understand himself - was he the Liu Tianchu who had four wives?

On the Xuchang battlefield, the 14th Division was defeated all the way. Tang Enbo took a big advantage. Tang Enbo, who returned to Zhengzhou, immediately ordered the entire group army: not afraid of fatigue, not afraid of difficulties, not afraid of hunger, not afraid of casualties, not afraid of disrupting the organization, not afraid of the impact of the river.

Wherever the enemy runs, pursue them resolutely, annihilate the Fourteenth Division, and capture Doihara Kenji alive. After Tang Enbo's order was issued, the entire plain of eastern Henan immediately became noisy, with both sides of the Longhai Line and the center of the Pinghan Line

, tens of thousands of officers and soldiers of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China spread their legs, kicked up yellow dust all over the sky, and chased westward in response from the north and south, all the way to Taiyuan.

Ronghua, who had already detoured back to the lower reaches, received the order, and the whole team set out for Fenglingdu near Zhengzhou upstream. When they arrived at Fenglingdu Ferry, they saw the ferrymen rowing hurriedly to the other side, pulling the Sichuan soldiers away.

He was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, but no matter how much he shouted, it was of no avail.

Gui Jian was anxious, and Ronghua was also anxious when facing the surging Yellow River. At this time, several soldiers escorted a common man over.

"Adjutant Ronghua, this is the boatman who still has time to escape," a soldier reported.

The boatman was in his 50s, and years of wind and frost had carved deep marks on his face. Looking at the soldiers with guns in front of him, he did not show a trace of fear, but looked at them with contempt.

"Old man, why did you run away when you saw us?" Niu Dahai waved his hand and asked the soldiers to let go of the old boatman. He was very surprised by the other party's expression, and even more strange by the other party's behavior.

"Humph." The old boatman ignored the official and tilted his head to one side.

"Hey, you old bastard, I'm looking for death to help you. Who are you? He has a right to delay the military situation." The communications soldier next to him was furious and pushed him.

"Stop!" Ronghua shouted, took a step forward, and said kindly: "Old man, we are the Sichuan Army. We are in a hurry to cross the river and return to the army. Why did you run away when you saw us?"...

It was probably Ronghua's attitude that made the old boatman feel different, and he finally said: "We only cross the river here to fight the Japanese troops, not the fleeing troops. I know you, and you just crossed the river from here more than a month ago, saying you were going to fight the Japanese.

Are you ready to run away now?"

The people around him were stunned at first, and then laughed, which made the old boatman very puzzled.

"So that's what happened." Niu Dahai suppressed laughter and asked: "Have you ever seen deserters have such a neat queue? Deserters have such high morale? Deserters also have such complete weapons? Haha, old man, we are

Those who crossed the river and returned to Zhengzhou, we just bombed the Japanese airport in Handan."

He asked three consecutive questions, which stunned the old boatman Wen. He looked left and right, unsure, and then asked: "Are you really going to fight the Japanese? Are you not a deserter?"

"We are not deserters." Ronghua smiled kindly again: "We are the Sichuan Army fighting the Japanese. We have just returned from a mission. Chenliu and the downstream ferry have been blocked by the Japanese army, making it impossible to pass."

The old boatman looked Ronghua up and down again: "I understand. I thought you were deserters at first, but I believe what this girl said." The old boatman finally understood and suddenly became happy: "You guys wait, I'll call the others.

Come here and help you cross the river."

The old boatman quickly called for more than a dozen ferries, and Ronghua and his team successfully crossed the Yellow River.

Outside the city of Zhengzhou, Xiong Zaimei was galloping all the way without catching up with Liu Tianchu. She asked the troops on the roadside for the location of the Sichuan Army's military headquarters. Everyone shook their heads. The location of the military headquarters was a military secret and ordinary soldiers knew it. Xiong Zaimei was stubborn.

He had a bad temper, secretly scolded Liu Tianchu several times, and then made up his mind, vowing not to go back until he was caught.

After riding her horse for a while, she was frightened by the intensity of the fighting and the tragic conditions around Zhengzhou. There were endless teams of stretchers transporting the wounded all the way. She could not see the side at a glance. She hesitated whether to continue moving forward.

There are even some doubts. Liu Tianchu, the playboy disciple who spends all his time eating, drinking and having fun, is really the army commander? Deputy commander? Can he command such a large-scale battle?

Although she was confused in her heart, she also knew that the troops pretending to be commanders would lose their heads. It was useless to find Liu Tianchu in such an urgent war situation. Liu Tianchu would not be able to go back with her. After hesitation, she had to turn around and return the same way.

After riding her horse for a while and walking out of a small ravine, the sky gradually darkened. In the distance, she saw lights and a faint smell of burning wheat straw drifted over. After running for a day, she was also hungry and saw a fellow villager.

The village, thinking to herself, would be a good way to ask for a drink of water, so she whipped the horse's buttocks a few times and entered the village.

The small village was quiet and lifeless. There was a strong smell of blood in the wind. She had a premonition that something bad was going to happen. Before she could react, she was hit hard on the back of her head. Xiong Ximei's vision went dark and she fainted immediately.

On the bank of the Jinshui River, Jiang Hui'an and Liu Ling commanded the troops to march towards Jinan after cleaning the battlefield. Feng Huaizhu also commanded the troops to go to Lanfeng to take over the defense. Liu Tianchu led the guard squad and Li Sixin to rush to Fenglingdu near Zhengzhou to meet Ronghua. Along the way

, Li Sixin has been depressed.

Li Sixin couldn't bear it anymore, reined in his horse and said loudly: "Military seat, why do you take me with you? To be a guard? If so, I might as well stay in the commissioned bodyguards?"

Hearing Li Sixin's complaint, Liu Tianchu also stopped and laughed loudly: "What are you complaining about? I bought you with the artillery regiment. You demoted me to squad leader. What happened to me asking you to be a guard?"

Li Sixin, who was born in Jinan, has the unique drive of a man from Shandong. He turned over and simply dismounted from his horse. He looked at Liu Tianchu without any hesitation: "Sir, if you want to avenge your private life, please kill me immediately. It is disrespectful to the officer. I am wrong."

First, but please don't insult me ​​like this."

"Did I insult you?" Liu Tianchu was stunned for a moment, and he also got off his horse. "What did you say? How did I insult you?"….

Li Sixin replied without hesitation: "I am determined to ride on the battlefield and be wrapped in horse leather. If you ask me to be your guard, isn't it an insult to me?"

Liu Tianchu nodded appreciatively and walked around Li Sixin: "You and I praise Haikou for being good at commanding a company? How are we insulting you when we go to support your company?"

Li Sixin obviously didn't understand what Liu Tianchu meant, and looked at him suspiciously. Liu Tianchu patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Do you know about the Japanese Army's...the Sakura Death Squadron?"

Li Sixin was surprised: "How do you know, sir?"

Liu Tianchu replied: "We encountered it when we forcibly crossed the Huaihe River. It was a terrifying force with extremely strong combat effectiveness, especially the quality of its individual soldiers. The casualties in that battle were heavy, and I was deeply impressed. Our Sichuan Army also formed such a small force.

,how do you feel?"

Li Sixin stood there for a long time without moving, and his eyes were wet. Liu Tianchu was confused and waved his hand in front of his eyes: "Hey! What are you doing? What do you think? Is it possible?"

"It will happen! It will definitely happen! I will prove to you that this unit will play an incomparable role in the war." Li Sixin replied loudly. He couldn't help but be excited. His ideals and expectations could finally come true.

Li Sixin was so excited that Liu Tianchu was at a loss: "What are you doing? He's quite big..."
