Chapter 13: Changing Guards (1)

For Lujiang City, Mo Enemy is no stranger, in the twenty-seventh year of the Republic of China, Hefei regained the war, Li Baicheng and Liang Yisheng bombarded the nest, Liu Qinglong and Liu Bolong double-dragon attacked, and the corpse of the river was cross-plugged with water and bleeding. The defeated army of the Sakai detachment converged with reinforcements under the leadership of Tokutaro Sakai and retreated to Lujiang City, and Mo Enemy once sent a team to chase after him, trying to completely annihilate the remnants of the enemy in another battle at Lujiang. Because the Japanese army left with one blow and did not stop in Lujiang, Mo Enemy's headquarters received the order of Shangfeng and went west to Lu'an, so he gave up the pursuit of Sakai Tokutaro and missed Lujiang City. In Feixi, he learned about Lujiang City from Yuan Doushu in detail, and in Yuan Doushu's colorful description, he had a very deep impression of Lujiang City. It is still built by Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms, with a long history, after vicissitudes, although it has long been full of holes and sores, but it stands proudly in the south of Chaohu Lake with its majestic figure. "The ancient temple of the deserted city was built in Dongwu, and the stele clearly contains the red black. Even the sun looks at the sun, and the sunset hangs on the floating slaughter".

In the memory of Mo Di, Lujiang City has a city wall, and the scale is not small, three zhang high and five zhang wide, around the city, six or seven miles. The inside and outside of the city wall are built with blue bricks, and the middle is compacted with soil, and the wall head is wide and smooth, so that horses and pedestrians can run. Every one or two feet outside the head of the city, there is a daughter wall battlement, and from a distance, it seems to be inlaid with lace along the top of the wall. There is a city gate, there is a Chaoyang gate in the east, there is a Fengtai gate in the south, there is a large and small west gate in the west, and there is an arch bucket gate and a small north gate in the north. There is a river when there is a door, there is a moat outside the gate of each city gate of Lujiang, and there is a stone bridge that pays attention to it, a flax stone bridge deck, a diamond-shaped bluestone pier.

However, the news given to him by the reconnaissance company of the 138th Division was completely different, and in the report of the reconnaissance company, Lujiang was a completely undefended city, not only did it not have a brick and stone city wall, but even the famous West Gate Suspension Bridge had become a broad avenue. In Sun Cheng's narration, Mo Enemy learned that that year, the Sakai detachment was defeated in Hefei and attacked Lujiang City with lightning speed, and the people in the ancient city were caught off guard and trapped in the city by the Japanese army. At this time, the ancient city not only did not give any protection to the people in the city, but became a fence for the Japanese to burn and loot, so that the people in the city had nowhere to hide and nowhere to hide. After the Sakai detachment advanced westward, Ling Qianfeng, the then magistrate of the Lujiang County Government, ordered that all the city walls be demolished, and the Fangcheng River outside the city was also filled with mud, leaving only a Xiuxi River in the west of the city to stretch through. The magistrate of Ling claimed that the Lujiang City after that was a city of peace, and there was no longer war and gunsmoke.

"Wouldn't it? It's really completely dismantled! Ling Qianfeng, this loser! Mo Di looked at Sun Cheng, the captain of the guard who was chattering around him, and couldn't believe that when such a war was raging, there would be people who would destroy the city wall, it was really too long to live.

For the sake of the enemy's safety, Li Benyi originally wanted to transfer the entire reconnaissance company to the enemy's side, but for this reason, the enemy expressed a different opinion, and he told Li Benyi that the reconnaissance company is the eye of the whole division, and every minute and second cannot be missed, and if it fights in a mixed area of the enemy and us, and can always grasp the enemy's movements, it will be half of the success first, and it is impossible to support a campaign only by relying on the news conveyed by the peak. At present, the most important thing to grasp is the progress of Wang Zhanlin east of Yegong Mountain, so as not to get the enemy in front of him, and he is still at a loss. Only then did Li Benyi take back the reconnaissance company with a sneer, but only returned the invincible guards.

"According to what you said, this Lujiang doesn't need to siege the city?" Mo Di asked.

"It's not that there is no need to attack the city, it is that there is no city to attack." Sun Cheng said with a smile: "When we enter and leave the Lujiang River, it is like entering a no-man's land, no one stands guard, no one guards, and no one checks the documents. ”

"If that's the case, it's going to be trouble!" Mo Enemy sighed.

"Instead of attacking the city, it will be troublesome?" Sun Cheng asked puzzled.

"Yes! Can't hit. A dozen, and the whole city was scattered. Mo Enemy said: "Unless there is a strong force, surrounded in one fell swoop, otherwise, if you fight in the east, you will flee to the west, and if you fight in the north, you will go south, and fight behind the enemy, what is you most afraid of, that is, you are afraid of the invisible enemy, and the scattered enemy will definitely hide in order to survive, and you will come out to bite if you have the opportunity, although the bite is not painful, it is the problem of scabies, and it is extremely upset." Even if it is defeated and annihilated in one fell swoop, how to defend it is also a problem, and it may be counterattacked by the opponent anytime and anywhere. You can't be afraid to guard against thieves every day. ”

Sun Cheng thought about it, it was really like this, there was a clear offensive target than such an uncertain combat target, and it was too much clear.

Mo Di thought all the way, until he arrived at the East Green Camp, but he didn't find a suitable way, so he had to look at the specific situation and act at the opportunity.

As soon as they arrived at the Donglv Camp, Wei Jiebo and Liang Yisheng greeted them, Mo Di and Wei Jiebo were not very familiar with each other, and greeted them very politely, as for Liang Yisheng, it was much more casual. Mo Di smiled and said: "The engineer brothers of the 414th Regiment are not ordinary, and the tower they made did not let you crush it!" ”

Liang Yisheng laughed and said: "It's so strong that it's strong, but it's too small, and I shrank on it, and it's uncomfortable." ”

"The main thing is that I didn't expect that it would be Director Liang who went up at the beginning." Wei Jiebo said.

Everyone around laughed.

"I heard that you have captured a lot of prisoners this time, go talk to their biggest officer." Wei Jiebo and Liang Yisheng accompanied Mo Di to the prisoner camp and found the commander of the first battalion of the Lujiang Regiment of the Founding Army. The battalion commander of this major was half-lying under the tree, looking at the sky with his eyes and chewing grass roots, he knew that as long as he did not die in battle, he would generally not die after falling into the national army, after all, everyone was Chinese, and there was no gritted teeth and hatred with the Japanese. This siege of the East Green Battalion, was blown up by the hand cannon outside, not the ordinary tragedy, a battalion of more than 380 people died, more than 100 wounded, unscathed but about 100 people, all concentrated on the avenue between the playground and the building, the whole body was searched, except for what was worn, there was nothing, the most hateful thing was to tear off everyone's trouser belts, it didn't matter if you sat on the ground, as soon as you stood up, you had to pump it with your hands, otherwise the pants would fall down.

Seeing Wei Jiebo and Liang Yisheng walking in front of him, the pseudo-battalion commander had to stand up, snapped upright, pulled his trousers with his left hand, and saluted with his right hand.

"Okay, okay, sit down and say." Wei Jiebo said with a smile: "Don't be surprised by this brother of the battalion commander of the founding army, it is also a helpless move to remove the belt of his trousers, it is better than tying it up with five flowers, please understand." ”

"Understand, understand!" The pseudo-battalion commander also smiled and said, "I don't know who invented this trick, a trouser belt trapped a pair of hands." ”

Wei Jiebo pointed at Liang Yisheng, Liang Yisheng pointed at Mo Di, and said in unison: "It's him." ”

"How is it?" Mo Di Le, he was far away in Yefu Mountain, but he didn't give them such a ghost idea.

Liang Yisheng said with a smile: "Back then, in Wugong Mountain, that's what you did, Boss Mo. ”

Mo Di laughed, there is such a thing!

"Who is this?" The pseudo-battalion commander asked suspiciously.

"This is the chief of staff of our military department, Colonel Modi." Liang Yisheng said.

"But the commander of the 176th Division?" After receiving an affirmative reply, the pseudo-battalion commander stood up again, snapped upright, and saluted. said: "Defeated under the invincible commander Mo in the world, although the brother is defeated, he is still glorious." ”

Mo Di took the other party's saluted right hand, shook it, and said, "You know me? ”

"Who has stayed in the six counties in the West doesn't know Mo Tianzong!" The pseudo-battalion commander straightened his chest and said proudly: "Brother was a person from the Eleventh Tour before, and he was stationed in Shipai and came to Lujiang with the battalion commander Wang Xianlin. After arriving in Lujiang, Battalion Commander Wang was transferred to the commander of the second battalion, and his brother took over Battalion Commander Wang's hand. ”

Hehehehe, this one turned out to be Hao Wenbo's old subordinate, no wonder he knows himself. Mo Di thought to himself, since there is such a relationship, it will be easy to do, and said to Liang Yisheng: "I said, for my sake, give this battalion commander's brother a belt, no problem, right?" ”

"No problem." Liang Yisheng smiled and asked people to get the pseudo-battalion commander's belt, the leather belt was very thick, and there was a * bullet box on it. The pseudo-battalion commander was very conscious, and only put on the belt after taking off the bullet box and handing it to Liang Yisheng, and after putting on the belt, he gave a standard salute to Mo Di, and it can be seen that this guy's respect for Mo Di is from the heart.

"Sir, I really miss the time when I was in Shipai, at that time I was still the deputy company commander of the first company, I couldn't speak in the battalion, so I asked the battalion commander Wang Xianlin to bring it over, in Liantan, we were beaten by Chief Luo Wei and caught off guard, and were hit by Zhao Jindou at the tail, the deputy battalion commander died, and the first company commander also died, I was promoted all the way to the deputy battalion commander, established the second battalion, and transferred Battalion Commander Wang to be the commander of the second battalion and the director of the Lujiang Police Bureau, and I became the first battalion commander." The pseudo-company commander was a little embarrassed when he said this, others died one by two, but he was promoted again and again, and the speed of promotion was a bit fast.

"Running from Shipai to Lujiang, your deputy battalion commander and company commander are losing, but you kid has made a lot of money!" Liang Yisheng laughed and was promoted four levels in a row, from lieutenant to major. Entering the school rank, even if it is an officer, some people will not be able to enter this rank in their lifetime.

"Since it's an acquaintance, I'm not welcome, I'm going to hit Lujiang next, I want to hear your opinion." Mo Di said very simply: "I heard that Lujiang is an undefended city, I want to take Lujiang, but I don't want to cause too many losses to the Lujiang fathers and villagers, and I don't want Wang Xianlin to get away, do you have any good opinions." ”

The pseudo-battalion commander pondered for a moment and said: "Although Lujiang City has been demolished, there are only a few roads in and out of Lujiang, the moat in the west and north is still there, and the access road is the stone bridges in the past, and the moat in the south and east has been filled in some, and it is slightly more difficult to defend, but it is not impossible, it is best to block all the roads leading to the outside." ”

"We only have one regiment, and it is estimated that all of them will be blocked, which is unlikely," Mr. Wei said worriedly.

"One regiment is enough." The puppet battalion commander said: "Lujiang claims to be a second battalion, but in fact there are only one hundred and thirty or forty people, and there are five platoons on the southern periphery. A regiment pressed over with great fanfare, and Wang Xianlin had no other way but to run. ”

"Do you have a lot of roads to run south?" Mo Di asked.

"Many." The puppet battalion commander replied: "But after going out, they will all converge on one road, in the direction of the gap." ”

Mo Enemy patted the pseudo-battalion commander on the shoulder and said, "Thank you." He turned back and asked Uncle Weber, "Have you eaten lunch for the captive brothers?" Weber shook his head, this kind of thing is always deliberately forgotten. Mo Di smiled and said: "They are all old brothers from Shipai, a little bit of incense, for my sake, give the brothers some food, give the injured brothers some treatment, thank you!" Wei Jiebo nodded and explained, there is still food in the old green camp, and the medicine is also sufficient, and the food is not his own, Wei Jiebo is not heartbroken.

When the surrounding puppet soldiers heard Mo Di's words, they were all grateful, looking at Mo Di, their eyes were full of admiration, especially those wounded soldiers who had not yet been dealt with, they shed tears, they knew that their lives were saved.

Walking to the war room of the battalion headquarters before the founding of the founding army, Mo Di crouched on the map and measured while looking at it, calculating something, and there were words in his mouth, and no one could understand it. After doing it for a while, he stood up straight and said to Wei Jiebo: "I have a way, go, go and find those captive soldiers again, see if they have finished eating, and when they are finished, we will do it." ”

Wei Jiebo and Liang Yisheng exchanged expressions, and thought incomprehensibly, to fight Lujiang, do you still need to use captive soldiers?
