Chapter 217: Capturing Zhang Hanchu Alive

The soldiers who occupied the inner Qilang Mountain outside the city of Yichuan, and when they arrived at the top of the mountain, they immediately found that the Kuomintang troops on Fengyi Mountain, another position outside the city, were blockading the siege troops of our army under the mountain with firepower.

This was repaid, Brigade Commander Liu ordered the soldiers to bring over all the prisoners on the artillery positions that had just been captured, and then began to lecture: "Listen to me, if you want to die or live, if you want to die, it is very simple, a peanut can be solved immediately, if you want to live, you must make meritorious service to the People's Liberation Army, and now there is a great merit waiting for you to take it, do you want to do it?" ”

The captured Kuomintang officers and soldiers on Neishiro Mountain hurriedly asked what great merit could be spared death, as long as they were not shot, they could do anything.

Brigade Commander Liu pointed to the opposite Fengyi Mountain: "If you use artillery fire to knock out the firepower of Fengyin Mountain, even if you make great contributions to the PLA, are you sure?" ”

Who dares to say that the captives are not sure, this eight-way commander has too much temper, and if he doesn't get it right, he may really give you a click, who is the soldier to do it is not to do it, these are still wearing-This article is transferred from Shushu.com-http://www.shushuw.cn/shu/26701/4156443.html-The military uniform of the Kuomintang, the soldier who has not taken off the cockade on the hat is under the command of Brigade Commander Liu of the Third Column, calculating, aiming, and loading, Then under the command, artillery bombardment of the Kuomintang positions at Fengyi Mountain was carried out.

Not to mention, the Kuomintang prisoners under the threat of the PLA commander at gunpoint were really good, a fierce artillery attack blew up the Kuomintang position on Fengyin Mountain with thick smoke, dead bodies everywhere, and the soldiers who were not killed on the Fengyin Mountain position scolded and shouted: "***, blind dog's eyes, how can you fight your own people?" ”

Some people have a little more eyes and look at the artillery fire that keeps coming, and they immediately understand, what is blind, this is the position occupied by the communist army, and they were caught by the Eighth Road, do they dare not sell their lives?

Besides, Zhang Hanchu, the brigade commander in the city, he felt that a strong city like Yichuan could hold out for a few days even if it couldn't be held, but he didn't expect that the communist army was taken by the communist army before he reached the main position outside the city.

Just when Zhang Hanchu was like an ant on a hot pot, a cronie's subordinate gave him an idea: "Luzao, now I can't take care of others, take advantage of the fact that it will be dark soon, and the city is not broken yet. ”

Zhang Hanchu said with some concern: "When I had a meeting yesterday, I told the brothers that I would guard for a while, and then take them to break through and go back to Xi'an. ”

"Brigade, what treachery is not treacherous, it would be good to be able to keep yourself in this form now, what do you want brother? In two hours, it will be dark, and there is a small water gate in the northeast corner of the city, which was carried by the common people in the past, and then it was blocked, should we dig it up and sneak it away from there? ”

The lights of the 24th Brigade Headquarters were dim, Zhang Hanchu, who was sitting on the chair, had dull eyes, curled up in the military coat and thought about it, Yichuan seemed to be unable to hold on for a long time, and if he wanted to run, he really had to hurry, and when the city was broken, he couldn't run away, thinking of this, Zhang Hanchu said to this subordinate: "Okay, I'll leave tonight, but I can't dig the water gate, so the movement is too big, let's go to the city wall, you prepare the rope, take two guards, and we'll leave as soon as it gets dark." ”

Time passed little by little, the sky was getting darker and darker, the two columns of the Northwest Field Army were still attacking the city, Yichuan City was not big, the brigade could not be used, the two columns each used a main brigade to attack the city, and the rest of the main force of the column surrounded Yichuan like an iron bucket.

Zhang Hanchu glanced at his office before leaving, and looked at the surrounding houses: "Hey, I still have a little feeling after living for so long, I originally wanted to be the emperor of the soil in this small place for a few years and enjoy some Qingfu, but I didn't expect the communist army to come so quickly, brothers, I'm sorry, it's not that I'm ruthless, it's really no way, if you want to blame, you can blame the communist army for coming too fast." ”

"Brigade seat, let's go, after we go out, we will have to play hide and seek with the communist army in the mountains, and the time is limited."

With his familiarity with the geography of Yichuan, and under the cover of nightfall, this Zhang Chu took only three guards and slipped quietly down at the corner of a city wall that neither the attacking nor the defending sides noticed.

Zhang Hanchu was tied under the city wall by the guards with a rope, but because of the cold weather, the guards' hands were not grasped, and the ** brigade commander Zhang Da was very heavy because the food was too good, so the rope slipped from the guards' hands at once, and Zhang Hanchu was thrown to the ground fiercely.

If this was put in normal times, Zhang Hanchu would have the heart to shoot this guard, but now he can't, there are only three people around him, and he has to count on these three people to get him out of this big mountainous area.

The figures of Zhang Hanchu and a few guards stumbled and disappeared into the night, what was the oath of success if it didn't succeed at the beginning, what the ambition of the party-state, what brothers together, now I can't take care of it.

Outside Yichuan City, there are two people carrying burdens on a small road, and if you look closely, you will understand that these are two soldiers wearing gray military uniforms, they are not young, and the patches on their gray old military uniforms are patched, although the clothes on their bodies are very tattered, but the mental state of the two is very good.

One said: "Lao Zhang, hurry up, comrades are still waiting to eat our steamed steamed buns." The other said, "It can't be too fast, it's dark and the road is slippery, what if one accidentally throws his burden into the ditch?" It's too late to go back and steam again, comrades still have to go hungry? ”

Listening to the tone of these two people's voices, you can know that the two people carrying the burden are two cooks from a certain unit of the third column of the Northwest Field Army, who are delivering food to the soldiers on the front line.

Just as the two of them were walking and talking all the way, one of the cooks suddenly saw a shadow not far in front of them, as if several figures were walking towards him.

The two of them don't look at it as cooks, not combat soldiers, but they are also old Eighth Road soldiers who have been soldiers for many years, and their vigilance is very high, the two of them hurriedly put down their burdens, pulled out the flat shoulders, and hid behind a big stone and waited for those people to come, the cooks do not have guns, but no guns do nothing, and they can do great things without guns, and the cooks of the Eighth Route Army can also go to the battlefield.

Zhang Hanchu broke his waist when he fell from the city wall, and he was fleeing for his life with the support of several guards, but he didn't expect to meet two PLA cooks here.

When the two cooks came closer, they suddenly jumped out from behind the stones, raised the pole in their hands and asked loudly, "Who is it?" Which part? Hands up. ”

Zhang Hanchu heard these words and shouted that even his soul was scared away, it's over, it's over, it's over, in the end, it's still the People's Liberation Army, it's over, my wife can't see it, my aunt can't see it, my children can't see it, I can't see it, I can't see it, it's all over.

But when the brigade commander and a few guards settled down and took a closer look, there were only two people, and what they were holding was not a weapon, just a flat pole for carrying a burden, and there were several iron buckets next to the flat pole, I saw that this was not a large army of the People's Liberation Army, just two people cooking.

Seeing this qiē, the hearts and eyes of several people are a little alive, there are four of us, although the brigade commander's waist is broken, but there are still three guards, these three people are real guys in their hands, if these two eight-way cooks are solved, maybe they can still run out.

What do these two cooks of the PLA do? The old Eighth Road, who has been a soldier for many years, has seen a lot of big scenes, and has a lot of eyes, and when he saw these boys' eyes constantly rolling, he guessed the thoughts of a few people.

One of the cooks said, "Why, we don't have guns in our hands? Tell you, this is the defense area of our three columns, and the soldiers patrolling around have something, as long as the gun goes off, I guarantee that people will arrive within five minutes, and by then you will have no way to surrender, and if you don't take a gun to break through, you will have to pick you with a bayonet, do you understand? Figured it out, quickly threw the gun down, and raised your hand. ”

These guards were undecided, not knowing whether it was better to surrender or resist, and at this time they all looked at Zhang Hanchu, who was wearing a soldier's uniform.

This Zhang Hanchu went back and forth to calculate, what these two eight-way said is reasonable, the three guards are definitely not opponents with two hands against two big flat poles, if you want to solve these two cooking eight-way only use guns, but as soon as the gun sounds, the patrol of the People's Liberation Army will arrive immediately, and his waist is broken, and he can't run away, what should I do? What to do?

After thinking about it, I really came up with a way, what way? This Zhang Chu thought, I am wearing soldiers' clothes, who can know that I am the brigade commander of **? Catch what's the big deal, mix in the captives, and have a chance to find a way to escape.

Even if there is no chance to escape, doesn't the communist army always say that they want to treat prisoners preferentially, and also propagandize that those who are willing to join the People's Liberation Army will stay, and those who are unwilling to join the army will be given travel expenses. As long as I can return to Xi'an, I will still be the same as a ** official.

The brigade commander Zhang made up his mind and immediately raised his hand and said: "Comrade of the Eighth Route Army, we surrender, we surrender, we are all soldiers, we were arrested by the Kuomintang, we have heard about the policy of your army for a long time, and we are willing to surrender our guns." ”

As he spoke, he also glanced at the guards, a few guards are nothing, if you want to surrender as a brigade commander, we will surrender, anyway, we are also soldiers, and the People's Liberation Army is really good at being soldiers.

Several guards threw their guns on the ground, and then raised their hands, and when the two cooks saw that the Kuomintang soldiers had thrown away their guns, they hurriedly went up and picked up all the guns and then retreated a few steps away.
