Chapter 471: The old knife is dead

"Brother Fan, why are you here?"

Liao Fan hadn't come to the logistics department for a long time, and Sun Boyong was still wondering what kind of wind blew Liao Fan after seeing Liao Fan.

"I have something to do with you, your logistics department has recently received such a large batch of materials from the hands of little devils, we have to use them at any time, we can't hoard the materials, and they won't give birth to cubs!" Liao Fan said.

"Brother Fan, are there many supplies?" Sun Boyong said, "Half of the cave where our logistics department hoarded supplies is still empty!" ”

"Okay, don't cry to me, in the past two years, your logistics department has expanded the cave to be able to run planes, even if you move the little devil warehouse in Jindong here, you can't fill it!"

"Hehe, Brother Fan, it would be nice if this was the case, Director Du asked me for raw materials, and I couldn't afford to give them back!" Sun Boyong said.

"The matter of raw materials, I'll figure it out, now I want to change the military uniforms for the soldiers, just follow this style, see if you have any opinions!" Liao Fan asked.

"Brother Fan, what can I say, I will ask the brothers to send the cotton to the textile mill now, and weave a batch of cloth first, and see how the quality is!"

"Well, I think so too, you personally take this dress to Heshun County to see if anyone can dye the fabric into this color, remember that the best craftsmanship must not fade the fabric!"

Liao Fan knows that the process of dyeing cloth is very troublesome, especially for a military uniform like his, which is not simply dyed and then dried, which requires a lot of complicated processes.

"Okay, Brother Fan, I'll go after arranging the cotton matter, and strive to rush back tomorrow!"

"If you really can't find a suitable candidate, you can go to the old county magistrate, then the old gentleman should be able to help!" Liao Fan remembered the old man in the county, if he couldn't help it, Liao Fan had to think of another way.

Military uniforms represent the level of a country or an army for a certain period of time, and now the military uniforms of the new 33 rd Army are varied, and if this continues, they themselves will regard themselves as guerrillas behind enemy lines, so the unification of military uniforms has become an inevitable situation.

When Taihang Mountain was busy developing, the battle of the First Battle of Changsha finally began, but until the battle broke out, Chairman Chiang still did not make up his mind whether to defend Changsha City.

General Xue Yue had already made a comprehensive arrangement of troops, and in order to show Chairman Chiang his determination to defend Changsha City to the death, he called Chairman Chiang almost every day to report on the combat readiness of Changsha City, but in the end Chairman Chiang was so tired that he should not answer the call from Changsha.

Chairman Chiang's attitude led to the fact that although the Ninth Theater was actively preparing for war under the command of Xue Yue, this battle was very passive, so that Xue Yue was tied, and the troops far away in the Jiangjiang region only listened to Chairman Chiang's orders, and after receiving Xue Yue's order, although they had the intention to resist the war, they did not receive Chairman Chiang's order, and did not dare to transfer a single soldier to support Changsha.

Fortunately, General Li Zongren of the Fifth Theater of Operations allowed the troops to take the initiative to attack, pinning down part of the Japanese army's strength and relieving some of the pressure on the defenders in front of the Ninth Theater.

"Chairman, I don't know whether to say it or not!" Chen Cheng said cautiously after seeing Chairman Jiang hang up the phone angrily.

"You also came to be a lobbyist for Xue Boling?" Chairman Jiang glanced up at Chen Cheng and said.

Chen Cheng glanced at Chairman Jiang and hesitated a little, now Chairman Jiang was angry, and he was angry for Xue Boling, so he had to swallow back the words that came to his mouth. But Liao Fan's advice from the last time he came to Chongqing has been echoing in his ears.

Chairman Jiang walked into his study angrily, and Chen Cheng did not follow, but glanced at Mrs. Jiang in the room.

Chen Cheng didn't say what Liao Fan told him after all, as Chairman Chiang's fellow countryman, he followed Chairman Chiang all the way, he knew Chairman Chiang's temper very well at this time, he didn't want to achieve victory, just some time ago, when the battle between the Fifth War Zone and Taihang Mountain ended, Chairman Chiang personally told him that he wanted a big victory to encourage the determination of the whole of China to resist the war, but this matter was interrupted by Wang Jingwei's mutiny, until now the Battle of Changsha broke out.

Chairman Chiang was just hesitating, in this battle, the Central Army had already lost enough, the elite units of the Central Army fought throughout the country, and indeed set an example, and none of the officers who came out of the Whampoa Military Academy surrendered to the Japanese, but the losses of the troops in the middle were only clear to Chairman Chiang, and they could not afford to lose.

Chen Cheng, who left Chairman Jiang's residence, immediately found Bai Chongxi, and in the current situation, he needed to negotiate with Bai Chongxi about the next course of action as soon as possible. At the same time, Chen Cheng also sent a telegram to his Chongqing office in Taihang Mountain.

This telegram was addressed to Liao Fan, and the content of the telegram was also very simple, the Japanese army had launched a full-scale attack on the Ninth Theater of Operations two days earlier.

Liao Fan frowned after seeing the telegram, he knew very well what Chen Cheng meant, Chairman Jiang still hadn't made up his mind, otherwise Chen Cheng wouldn't have to send him this telegram at all.

"Hey, our Chairman Jiang, when has this happened, the little devils have been beaten, and they are still thinking about whether to fight or not, thanks to General Xue Yue, he has the determination to repay the country with death, if he changes to someone who is not strong-willed, now the little devils will hit Changsha City!" Liao Fan shook his head helplessly.

"Brother Fan, what does General Chen mean by sending you this telegram?" Li Lingfei did not understand why Chairman Chiang was unwilling to fight, and why Chen Cheng sent him a telegram.

"In fact, this matter is simple and simple, difficult to say, the final decision of this war is in the hands of a woman!" Liao Fan said.

"Ahh Li Lingfei was even more confused, did the Battle of Changsha have anything to do with a woman.

"Sometimes let Madame Chiang blow the pillow wind to Chairman Chiang, I guess this matter will be fine, but I have already mentioned this matter to General Chen Cheng, why didn't he go to Madame Chiang!" Liao Fan also wondered, he remembered that he had mentioned this matter to Chen Cheng.

"Let Director Wang send a telegram to General Chen Cheng, and tell him that Chairman Jiang's final decision is at Madame Jiang's, and the rest is up to them, we still have a mess in Taihang Mountain that hasn't been cleaned up!"

Today, Liao Fan finally had news from Chu Pengtian, that is, Chu Pengtian was in a village in the northwest of Shanxi, according to the report of the platoon leader, Chu Pengtian went to pick up his master and hid his affairs with Yingzi for Chu Pengtian.

Of course, Liao Fan believed in his warriors, and then let the platoon leader go to rest, thinking that he would bring his master to Taihang Mountain for retirement, which was understandable, but why hide it from him, and as long as Chu Pengtian made a report, Liao Fan was not such an unsympathetic person, and he would stop Chu Pengtian from letting him see his master.

"Old Lu, tell your captain and ask him to send a team of soldiers to pick up Chu Pengtian, no matter what this guy does, I will personally deal with him when he comes back!"

Chu Pengtian had already sneaked into the county seat yesterday, and he saw a large cart of grain entering the little devil's warehouse, as for the carriages containing women, Chu Pengtian did not follow, because he was worried that he would not be able to help but do it.

Chu Pengtian took advantage of the time when the grain was stored to explore around the county, and finally determined that the little devil had taken action, and this time the little devil's action was to call on the forces of Jinxi and Jinzhong, and there was no slightest mobilization of the Japanese army in Jindong.

After some inquiry, Chu Pengtian felt that it was not too early, and it was time to go out of the city and wait for the old knife and gun to go back early, in case the old knife and gun took someone to leave him and go back early.

In fact, the old knife and gun really had this idea, and after carrying all the grain into the warehouse, he hurriedly urged the people he brought to go out of the city and return.

However, they ran into trouble when they went out of the city, which started with Chu Pengtian wanting to save people at night, in order to save people, Chu Pengtian took a forced method to attack the puppet army guarding the city gate in the county seat, not only did not cause chaos but was almost arrested by the puppet army.

After the Japanese army learned that the puppet army guarding the city gate had lost its strength, they transferred the puppet army of a company guarding the city gate back to the city for repair, and brought in a new puppet army to garrison it, and the commander of this puppet army company was a greedy drinker.

Most of the people in the team who transported grain to the county town were equipped with guns, but according to the regulations of the little devils, these guns were not allowed to be brought into the city, so the puppet army became the people who guarded this batch of guns.

When he went out of the city gate, the old knife and gun made a mistake, that is, to let Yingzi get his knife back, although Yingzi changed into men's clothes when he entered the city, but it was an eighteen-year-old girl with fine skin and tender meat, and the good ones were also developed, and when Yingzi took the equipment, the puppet army company commander grabbed Yingzi's hand.

Yingzi was suddenly grabbed by the hand, panicked, and revealed that she was a woman, of course the commander of the puppet army company would not let go of a big girl in the prime of her youth, and teased Yingzi at the city gate on the spot.

Although the old knife and gun stepped forward to beg for mercy, the puppet army did not give face at all, and the old knife and gun were helpless, because the guns in their hands were now in the hands of the puppet army, and there was no way to resist at all, and the old knife and gun could only beg for mercy one by one.

The puppet army usually acts as a prestige, bullying the Chinese and is used to bullying, where will care about a bad old man's begging for mercy, a puppet army impatiently directly raised a gun to beat the old knife and gun, although the old knife gun has no knife and no gun, but the skill in the hand has not diminished in the slightest.

Before the puppet army's gun fell, the old knife and gun's fist had already gone out, and the puppet army was lying under the wall, foaming at the mouth, and the other puppet soldiers saw the old man beating their own people, and greeted the old knife and gun together.

This scene happened to be seen by Chu Pengtian, Chu Pengtian didn't say a word, and immediately stepped forward to relieve the siege, the gunshots rang out, and people kept falling, there were puppet soldiers, and there were people and horses brought by old knives and guns, after a fierce fight, only three people were left with old knives and guns, and the old knives and guns were also hit and fell in a pool of blood......

Chu Pengtian took one last look at his master, and unwillingly dragged Yingzi, who had not yet recovered, and disappeared outside the county seat. The puppet army did not pursue, what they needed to guard the city gate of the county seat, the city gate was attacked last night, they didn't want to make a mistake today, so Chu Pengtian and Yingzi escaped by luck.

The puppet army quickly cleaned up the corpses that came out of the city gate, and they hung the heads of the killed people on the city wall, telling those who passed by the city gate that these people were guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army, and this was the end of the rebellion against the Imperial Japanese Army.

The three family members had already separated from Chu Pengtian and Yingzi when they fled from the city gate.

"Let's rest here for a while, those puppet soldiers shouldn't have caught up!" Chu Pengtian said breathlessly.

"Godfather...... Woo woo woo ...... "Yingzi couldn't help but lie on Chu Pengtian's shoulder and cry.
