Chapter 12: The Aftermath of War (28)
Luo Wei beckoned, the brothers of the spy company and the assault company stepped aside, Jin Tongxuan waved his hand, and the carrying brigade entered the field. The preliminary work came to an end, and Luo Wei and Jin Tongxuan, who were relieved, walked to the door of the oil depot side by side, wanting to see the results of this time, but they saw Panlong sitting on the ground like mud, and they were very startled, thinking that there was still poisonous gas left, so they turned this guy over. Just as he was about to order the large army to withdraw, he saw Panlong stand up and grin: "It's okay, let's move!" When I took a closer look, I found that this person was sweating all over his head in the winter, and even the tips of his hair were dripping, standing in front of him, and he felt like he was going to collapse. Jin Tongxuan took a Japanese-style kettle and handed it to Panlong, who raised his neck and swallowed the water in his throat, and then said with palpitations: "These hundreds of steps can exhaust me!" Luo Wei took off his coat, draped it on Panlong's body, and said, "Be careful of the wind, you are not poisoned, but you are sick." Only then did Panlong feel the coldness, hugging his coat tightly and shivering.
Barrels of gasoline were rolled out of the oil depot and then out of the airport gate, and hundreds of barrels rolled up at the same time, making a rumbling sound. There is a lot of strength in numbers, and in four hours, the oil in the oil depot is empty. Except for the twenty barrels of oil left, all the others got on the boat on the side of the dock not far away and handed over to Huang Yingyi, who was in the next stick.
"These twenty barrels of oil were carried to the pavilion shop in Huaining, loaded with a truck, and sent back to Paradise as soon as possible, where they were waiting for the rice to be cooked." Jin Tongxuan said: "Be quick, we must pass through Battalion Commander Liu's defense area before Anqing's order reaches Gaohebu, after Gaohebu receives the notice, it will definitely be martial law, and it will be difficult for our convoy to mix it up." ”
Luo Wei said with a smile: "When I came out yesterday, He Degui sent me to the car, gave me all the way, and said, I must succeed, and get me some oil back more or less, otherwise, if there is a car without oil, the trade in Yuexi will be troublesome." With this car, let's satisfy the God of Wealth first. ”
Jin Tongxuan said: "Deputy Luo, it's still the original plan, you take the spy company back by car, and the assault company arranges a platoon as a guard, plus the oil truck, and the four vehicles will pass through Gaohebu as soon as possible." I took the other two companies of the assault company and the men and horses of the baggage brigade from the pavilion shop to Shuanggang and went straight to the Shahe River, trying to share as much of the burden on Lao He's shoulders as possible, and it was best to let him go back to Heaven, his responsibility was too heavy. ”
Luo Wei nodded and said, "It's really hard for him to eat and drink for our self-raising grain and grass Wild Supplement Group!" ”
The funeral pole is tied to the oil drum, a cross arm is erected at both ends, and a front and rear load is made on the cross arm, so that it becomes a large sedan chair with eight lifts, after eight people carry it, a barrel of oil is not heavy, and the speed of walking is not slow. Jin Tongxuan has more than 400 people, more than 400 people make 20 oil drums, and they can change shoulders and take turns to rest halfway. According to Jin Tongxuan's plan, try to speed up as much as possible, and rush to the pavilion before dawn. The four cars that had been parked in Xin'andu before found a fuel head and pulled smuggled goods for Liu Jin, the battalion commander of Gaohebu, to Tingliang, and then stopped at Tingliangpu, the purpose of which was to quickly pick up the personnel of the special service company who were on duty at Dalongshan Airport, and it was too far from the airport to Xin'andu. There is a closer road from Dalongshan Airport to Tingliang, and it is a very good highway, but the territory of the Japanese puppet army is along the line, especially the official road post not far from Dalongshan Airport, and there is also a regimental headquarters of the Peaceful Founding Army, which can be described as heavily guarded. Therefore, Luo Wei can only choose to cross Dalong Mountain to reach Luoling, and then take a small road from Luoling to Tingliangpu North. As long as you arrive at the north of Tingliangpu, you will enter the safe zone, and in front of you is Gaohebu, which is the jurisdiction of Liu Jin.
Panlong led the people and a platoon of the assault company to the front, and Zhao Shengan walked at the end with the rest of the assault company, until the brigade walked for more than an hour and safely entered the Dalongling in the north, Zhao Shengan left the Dalongshan Airport, as the queen of the palace, he didn't dare to be too careful. Even if he retreated, he could only retreat to Liantan, and only after Jin Tongxuan led the men and horses back to Shuanggang from Tingliang would they go north to Shahe together.
When Zhao Shengan left Dalongshan Airport, the boats in Pogang Lake had long disappeared, these small boats, the big ones could pull eight barrels of oil, and the small ones could pull three barrels of oil, which could be regarded as Liu Renkai's means, and he was able to concentrate more than 100 boats in such a short period of time, which was indispensable. They want to take advantage of the night to enter from Pogang Lake to Zongyang, and then to Caizi Lake, only when they enter the Caizi Lake area, can they have a safety guarantee, if they stay in the Pogang Lake area before the dawn comes, they will be completely exposed to the enemies of Anqing, and they can't leave if they want to! Zhao Shengan took people and inspected the airport very carefully before confirming his departure.
As soon as Zhao Sheng'an left, five or six Japanese soldiers came out of the grass at the west end of the airport, they were the sentries of the sentry box at the west end of the runway, and when the hand artillery bombarded the watchtower at the east gate, they found that something was wrong, and they did not dare to shoot, let alone reinforce, when the fire started, they quickly fled from the watchtower and hid in the haystack not far away. They witnessed the whole process of the robbery of the airport, and were amazed that the Japanese troops in the entire barracks were burned to death without resistance, and it was not until they could see clearly that people in chemical protective suits were moving in the light of the fire, and they knew that the opponent had used poison gas bombs. By the night, they hid their figures very carefully, until they confirmed that all the personnel behind Zhao Sheng'an's palace had retreated, and then they got out of the haystack, walked around the fire without a little residual temperature, and divided into two groups, one group went to the official road post in the west, and the other group went to the Anqing Garrison Headquarters in the south, to report the attack on the airport to the upper head as soon as possible.
Luo Wei and Jin Tongxuan followed the Chinese army, their steps were not slow, although they were empty-handed, they walked fast, and they were also a little sweaty, the team was very quiet, and everyone was walking silently. I came in a hurry, and there were no torches prepared for lighting, and all the seized lanterns at the airport could not illuminate the whole section of the road, but fortunately, although the road was crooked, it was not potholes, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and it would not fall under the road.
The sky was bright, the people passed the pavilion and the cooler, loaded the oil barrel into the car, Luo Wei took Panlong's people into two cars, the assault company got on another car in a row, and the four cars started quickly, to pass through Gaohebu before dawn, according to Jin Tongxuan's words, try not to cause too much trouble to Liu Jin.
Seeing the four cars go away, Jin Tongxuan breathed a sigh of relief, and instructed everyone to rest for a while and leave, cross the Shaziling and leave the road, and go to the Liu family ancestral hall in front for breakfast. Everyone was tired all night, hungry and cold, and they had already put their hearts to their backs, and when they heard that there was something to eat, they hurriedly got up and walked.
As soon as he got into the car, Luo Wei felt tired, and as soon as the car started and shook, Luo Wei fell asleep directly. Panlong didn't dare to sleep, or even dare to sit down, for fear that as soon as he sat down, he couldn't control his sleep, stood on the carriage, opened a crack in the canvas canopy, and stared at the road ahead.
The car was not running slowly, and the wind blew in through the cracks in the canvas canopy, biting. After about half an hour, the car came to the edge of a village and stopped.
Luo Wei woke up from his sleep, quickly opened his eyes, and asked, "What's wrong?" Where did it go? ”
The driver told him that when he arrived at Huangma Village, there were two devils who set up a card to check the car.
In the car lights, Luo Wei looked at it, smiled, and said, "It's okay, my own people." "I opened the car door and walked down.
In the light, it was Zhang Jinfu, the second company commander of Liu Jinying, who was Luo Wei's old subordinate, and Han Zongyu, the nominal deputy company commander of the reconnaissance company of the Field Supplement Regiment, it would be easy to do it!
I saw Zhang Jinfu walk in front of the first car and say to Luo Wei: "The Dalongshan Airport was attacked, all roads were closed, all the troops of Guanqiaoyi went to the airport, and we also received a telegram to strictly control the Hefei-An (Anqing) Highway and the Tongcheng (Tongcheng) Huang (Huangmei) Highway. ”
"What then?" Luo Wei asked.
"That's why I'm here to meet you on the Yellow Horse." Zhang Jinfu said: "The deputy seat was aggrieved, got on the carriage and squeezed with the brothers, and the driver brothers also went up, and handed over the four cars to my people to drive, as long as you are sent to the horse temple, everything will be fine." ”
Luo Wei smiled and said, "What's wrong with this, listen to you, I'll go to the back." ”
Zhang Jinfu let his people sit in the driver's seat, and he himself sat in the passenger seat of the first car, on both sides of the driver's building, and there were two guards standing on one side, standing on the pedals, tightly pressed against the door. These guards stood by the driver's building, not for the sake of being handsome, nor for the sake of style, but to block the blue sky and white sun sign on the door. As Zhang Jinfu walked, he said to the guards around him that if he had time, he would get some colorful five-star signs of the Wang puppet government and paste one on the side, so that the brothers would not have to work so hard.
It was still early, there were no pedestrians on the street, the car roared and rushed into Gaohebu, did not slow down, passed quickly on the street, and then rushed out of the north gate of Gaohebu, so that Sun Quan, the commander of the third company on duty at the north gate, ate a mouthful of ashes, and watched the car drive out of Gaohebu far away, Sun Quan clapped his hands, ready to find a place to have breakfast. Sending the four cars away, his mission was accomplished.
In the horse temple, Zhang Jinfu handed over the car to Luo Wei, and after the horse temple, it was Peng Wu's jurisdiction, and he couldn't go in again.
Time was tight, the task was urgent, Luo Wei didn't say anything to thank him, shook Zhang Jinfu's hand tightly, and boarded the car.
Gaohebu is the north gate of Anqing, the highway from Hefei to Anqing and the highway from Tongcheng to Meicheng, concentrated in Gaohebu, as long as you use a car in the six counties, you can't bypass the stronghold of Gaohebu. The 176th Division has thought more than once about taking the important town of Gaohebu into its own pocket, but it has never dared to do so, because it is impossible for the Japanese puppet army in Anqing to give up this important geographical location. Mo Enemy's trick to secretly cross Chen Cang is very effective, on the surface, Gaohebu is in the hands of the Japanese puppet army, in fact, Liu Jin has long been his own person. Before the Chinese New Year, Tan Heyi, commander of the 176th Division, reported the situation in Gaohebu to the 21 st Group Army in top secret, and Tang Ruru, director of the Military Intelligence Department of the 21 st Group Army, personally came to Gaohebu to meet Liu Jin and his three company commanders, had a celebration banquet together, and also gave Liu Jin the rank of lieutenant colonel, the three company commanders were all majors, and all four of them were awarded the Yunlu Medal. Liu Jin and others swore an oath in front of Tang Ruru to be loyal to the party and the state, and they will not swerve in this life. This time, the field supplement regiment dared to grab food from the tiger's mouth and robbed the oil at Dalongshan Airport, Gaohebu was an extremely important factor, because of the convenient conditions of Gaohebu, this operation was completed, and it was also because of the need to protect this stronghold that Mo Dou spared no manpower and material resources to open a second channel. From Caizi Lake into the Dasha River, go upstream, to the poor place of water, change to people to carry on their shoulders, and the transportation cost is much higher than that from diving into Tianlong Pass. This is also forced to be helpless, if the transportation from Tongcheng to Meicheng is too unimpeded, it is tantamount to telling the Japanese puppet army in Anqing that Gaohebu has a problem. Not to mention what the other party will do to Liu Jinbu, as long as Liu Jinbu is replaced, the previous good situation will be declared over. In the eyes of Mo Di and Luo Wei, the goal of this oil robbery is not oil, but to open up a road, a road to open up the eastern foothills of Dabie Mountain.
After handing over the convoy to Zhang Huaichu, who was stationed on the chessboard, Luo Wei got off with a platoon of assault companies, and he wanted to take a shortcut from here to Shahe, and see with his own eyes the difficulties and hardships of developing this new passage, and to complete the next road with his brothers.
