Chapter Seventy-Eight: Accidentally Obtained Information

At this point, Tang Cheng was truly sure that this woman was the captain of the guerrillas, and the other party understood that what he cared about was not the mules and horses, but the relevant information along the way. This information alone is enough for Tang Cheng to agree to the other party's request, and Tang Cheng and Lao Dongbei will never back down from killing devils. Tang Cheng lowered his head and pondered silently, Yan Hongjiao knew that there was a way to do this, and now that he increased his chips, the young commander of the other party would definitely agree to the request he had just made.

"Company Commander Tang, I heard that you are going south to Xianning?" Yan Hongjiao didn't care about Tang Cheng's eyes looking at her, but continued, "If you can agree to stay at the Japanese military station that will help us fight up, I will tell you a piece of information that can be regarded as crucial to you, don't worry, I will definitely not lie to you." The unfathomable smile on Yan Hongjiao's face made Tang Cheng stunned, Yan Hongjiao used the word crucial in her words just now, although Tang Cheng didn't know why Yan Hongjiao said this, but he didn't think that this woman would play tricks on herself.

Yan Hongjiao said so resolutely that Tang Cheng had no choice but to use the excuse of discussing with his soldiers, and asked Lao Xie to take Yan Hongjiao and the others to the place where the students were staying and wait. "That woman is a bad person at first glance, since the person surnamed Xie has already found their person, let's just go, without these guys who are dragging their feet, we can rush to Xigou tomorrow." Old Northeast was naturally unhappy that Tang Cheng agreed to stay and help Yan Hongjiao, but that woman called herself the White Bandit Army just now.

"There is no problem in rushing to Xigou tomorrow, as long as our speed is fast enough, we will be able to reach Shiqiao Township the day after tomorrow." Wang Dalu, who was responsible for leading the way, also affirmed the words of the old northeast, and rushed to Shiqiao Township to give two pieces of ocean, which was Tang Cheng's original words, compared to staying in Nanshan Village for a few days and then going on the road, Wang Dalu hated Tang Cheng to order the road now. Tang Cheng's gaze swept over Wu Chuang and the others one by one, and after continuing the old northeast, Liu Shishi and Wu Chuang also did not agree to stay in Nanshan Village, only Qian Erxi had not yet expressed his position.

After pulling Wu Chuang and them into his southbound team, Qian Erxi, who was wounded, has been playing the role of a transparent person, and with the end of the battle in Huandiqiao Town and Tang Cheng pretending to be a Japanese military uniform, Qian Erxi gradually began to point fingers at Wu Chuang and those people. Tang Cheng is not interested in really pulling Wu Chuang and them into the establishment of the second company, but now these forces are needed to form a team to go south, since Qian Erxi is Wu Chuang's platoon commander, Tang Cheng can't really treat Qian Erxi as a transparent person.

"My opinion is the opposite of yours, and I am in favor of agreeing to them." Qian Erxi's answer was obviously beyond their expectations, "We have too many injured brothers, and we can't take the official road when we go south to Xianning, which invisibly limits our speed, and the long journey will undoubtedly be very troublesome for the injured people." We need mules and horses, and the guerrillas can guarantee to provide us with mules and horses, as for the military station and artillery tower that the woman said, it is up to us whether we can fight or not. ”

Qian Erxi's opinion is the usual way of thinking in the national army, first promise to come down and then say, after the rise, if you find that the enemy is in a big position, you will temporarily retreat, as long as there are no casualties, at most you will do a useless work. Tang Cheng didn't agree with Qian Erxi's words, but he agreed with Qian Erxi's opinion, "That's what I mean, I don't think Yan Hongjiao's words are like a lie to us, the guerrillas' combat effectiveness is not as good as ours, but some of their abilities are much stronger than ours, especially we can't continue to go south in confusion, the relevant intelligence of the Japanese army along the way is very important." ”

"Do you think they can agree to stay in Nanshan Village?" Lao Xie looked at Tang Cheng who was talking to them from a distance, Lao Xie didn't know what the important information Yan Hongjiao was talking about, but he knew that Tang Cheng was a person who would not waver. Since he was rescued, Lao Xie has been secretly observing and understanding Tang Cheng, but it is a pity that among these people in the national army, only Lao Dongbei and Liu Shishi know Tang Cheng best, and these two people are exactly the people who Tang Cheng's subordinates are most wary of themselves.

Yan Hongjiao glanced at Tang Cheng with Lao Xie's inquiry, and said with a smile, "Yes, he will definitely agree, because I didn't lie to them, this information is worthless to us, but it is very important to them." Yan Hongjiao's answer made Lao Xie look sideways, although he didn't know where Yan Hongjiao got his confidence, but Yan Hongjiao was the captain of the local guerrillas. can command such a guerrilla force with more than 50 people, Yan Hongjiao must have her ability, Lao Xie can only choose to believe her.

"You see, they should have made their choice by now." Seeing Tang Cheng walking towards her, Yan Hongjiao greeted her with a smile. "Company Commander Tang, I think you have already made a decision." The appearance of Yan Hongjiao, dressed as an ordinary farmer, crossed her waist, made Tang Cheng speechless, but he had to admit that Yan Hongjiao guessed his mind and used a so-called vital piece of information to arouse his interest.

"We can help your guerrillas to go up and deal with the Japanese army's military stations and artillery towers, but you must first report that vital intelligence to me, as compensation, after destroying the Japanese artillery towers and military stations, we only need 50% of all the trophies." The conditions have never been discussed with the guerrillas, so the conditions given by Tang Cheng cannot be considered low, if Yan Hongjiao still does not agree, Tang Cheng plans to leave here immediately and continue to go south.

Xu saw suspicion in Tang Cheng's eyes, Yan Hongjiao pondered for a while, and then took out her simple map. "Captain Xie told me that you were going to Xianning, I don't think I need to, more than a month ago, Xianning was already occupied by little devils. Moreover, Xianning is full of little devils' troops and traitors in plain clothes, and if you can't get close to Xianning, you may be discovered by traitors. Yan Hongjiao said as she drew a large circle around Xianning with her fingers, signaling that these places were all garrisoned by the Japanese army's troops.

Yan Hongjiao's intelligence made Tang Cheng stunned, completely stunned, after crossing the river, Tang Cheng was looking for a safe passage to return to the national control area. They had lost all their sources of information after they had broken away from the main force, and they originally thought that the Japanese army would need time to consolidate their occupied area after occupying Huangshi, but they did not expect that when the battle of Xiaojieling began, Xianning was already under attack by the Japanese army. Tang Cheng now has some belief that Wuhan has really been lost, and the cities and key points around Wuhan have all been returned to the Japanese army, and if the national army in Wuhan City does not withdraw, I am afraid that it can only become a victim of the Japanese encirclement.

Xianning had been occupied by the Japanese army, and they were dumbfounded in the old northeast, and they all gathered around Tangcheng to see the map full of Japanese, although they couldn't understand the names of places marked in Japanese on the map, but this did not prevent them from surrounding Tangcheng. Tang Cheng, who leaned over and looked at the map, was now covered in a cold sweat, and he was sweating profusely in December, and Tang Cheng's heart was already full of nervousness and hesitation. Before being accepted by Xie Bo and Liu Shanyang, Tang Cheng only wanted to kill the Japanese single-handedly like Robert did when he was young, and after taking over the command of the second company from Liu Shanyang, Tang Cheng began to understand the meaning of the collective.

If it was just himself, Tang Cheng could pretend to be a Japanese expatriate or a soldier to reach the Kuomintang area safely, but now there are still old northeast people, and once the route to the south is wrong, many people will die. Old Northeast They now have to admit that the information provided by Hong Jiao is indeed very important, since the decision to go south to Xianning, Old Northeast they have heard countless routes to the south from Tang Cheng, and now even Liu Shishi knows what the loss of Xianning means to them.

After carefully looking at the map, the sweat on Tang Cheng's face gradually dissipated, and his frowning brows slowly relaxed, he found another route to the south on the map, if the guerrillas could ensure that they would get the relevant information of the Japanese army along the way, this southward route should be considered safe. "Captain Yan, if you can really guarantee that we can receive information from the Japanese troops along the way south, my people and I will definitely help you eliminate the rising Japanese military stations and artillery towers." Looking up at Yan Hongjiao again, the hesitation in Tang Cheng's eyes had disappeared, replaced by a look of determination.

Tang Cheng's expression changed so quickly that Yan Hongjiao was stunned, she couldn't sleep at night when she tossed the Japanese army in Liangzi Lake, Yan Hongjiao was not a simple woman, Tang Cheng's current look made Yan Hongjiao's evaluation of Tang Cheng go up to a new level. After receiving Yan Hongjiao's affirmative answer, Tang Cheng ordered everyone to follow Yan Hongjiao's guerrillas into Nanshan Village to rest, and wait for the news from Shangyang to come back, and they would follow Yan Hongjiao's guerrillas to attack and go up.

"Do you really believe that woman?" Old Northeast, who deliberately fell behind, asked Tang Cheng in a low voice, and the latter knew what Old Northeast meant, so he just smiled but didn't speak. "You just grabbed the map and pondered for a long time, what the hell do you mean, tell me first, we can't follow that woman to get some guerrillas, right?" has been with Tang Cheng for a long time, and Lao Dongbei has some understanding of Tang Cheng's style of doing things, knowing that Tang Cheng has already made a plan, and Lao Dongbei, who is impatient, wants to find out.

"Go south, go south." Taking the cigarette handed by Lao Dongbei and taking a puff, Tang Cheng gave Lao Northeast an unexpected answer. "Xianning was occupied by the Japanese army, which does not mean that the route to the south is broken, after arriving at Shiqiao Township, we will turn south to repair the water, and then go to Changsha. Changsha is far more important than Xianning, and the Nationalist army will not allow the Japanese army to occupy Changsha, as long as we avoid the villages and towns along the road, and with the information provided by the guerrillas, it should be safer to go to Xiushui than to go west. ”

Lao Dongbei blinked his eyes and thought about the map just now, indeed, after going south to repair the water, it was not far from Changsha. "Whatever you want, I'll follow you if you say you want to go, anyway, you're the company commander." Out of trust in Tang Cheng, Lao Dongbei pouted indifferently, he believed that Tang Cheng would never take him to a dead end.
