After Gao Jiu came to this era, he relied on his extraordinary ability to complete many arduous tasks that ordinary people could not complete, and established strong self-confidence, feeling that there seemed to be nothing that he could not do.

However, on today, he encountered two problems, which made him feel very headache.

The problem raised by John Chen is really difficult to solve. Gao Jiu thinks there is no way. The Japanese are not afraid of death. The domestic environment is under great pressure. In order to protect the face of their family, they would rather die than surrender. What can you do with him?

Moreover, Gao Jiu suddenly realized that how to continue to get along with Jiang Xiaomei in the future is also an unsolvable problem.

With long-term contact, Gao Jiu has already felt Jiang Xiaomei’s deep affection for him, and he also likes this brave, strong and straightforward girl.

However, Jiang Xiaomei is different from Xiao Yatong and Lin Yanni. She is an underground party member and has iron discipline in the underground party. She cannot get into a polygamous marriage with Gao Jiu. Gao Jiu can no longer give up Xiao Yatong and Lin Yanni, so he feels that he may have let down this lovely girl.

Gao Jiu sighed slightly, feeling a mess.

Jiang Xiaomei is less than 20 years old now, so she doesn’t think so much. As long as she stays by Gao Jiu’s side, she will be extremely happy. She cherishes the time she spent alone with Gao Jiu, talking and laughing.

Gao Jiu is not a sentimental person. Some problems cannot be solved now, so he can only let it go. He will not think about it for the time being. He also talked and joked with Jiang Xiaomei intimately.

On another big stone, Guo Hengming and Du Shengxi saw Gao Jiu and Jiang Xiaomei having a affectionate conversation. The two were very worried that Gao Jiu would obey Jiang Xiaomei's persuasion and agreed to complete the task of persuading the Japanese army to surrender. This matter had no meaning to Taohua Mountain, but was an extremely important burden. The most important thing was that if this task was not completed, it would have a significant impact on Gao Jiu's reputation. The two of them loved Taohua Mountain and Gao Jiu even more, and did not want his reputation to be damaged.

After discussion, the two decided to immediately dissuade Gao Jiu and Jiang Xiaomei after the conversation ended.

Finally, Gao Jiu and Jiang Xiaomei ended the conversation. Seeing Gao Jiu stand up, Guo Hengming and Du Shengxi hurriedly came to Gao Jiu.

When Guo Hengming saw that Jiang Xiaomei was still standing in front of him, he said tactfully: "Jiu Master, please think twice about the matter of persuading the Japanese army to surrender."

Du Shengxi was so angry that he simply said, "Battleman Jiang, you know my Jiu Master best. Jiu Master promises a lot of money. I hope you understand the difficulties of my Jiu Master, so don't persuade him."

Jiang Xiaomei felt a little embarrassed, she didn't know what to say for a moment.

Gao Jiu smiled and said, "Two brothers, don't worry about this matter, I have my own opinions."

After Jiang Xiaomei left Gao Jiu, she went to see John Chen. She said, "Secretary Chen, my ninth brother said that he couldn't do this, but he would find a way to capture as many Japanese troops as possible."

John Chen also knew that this was very difficult. If he could capture the Japanese army in large quantities, although it would be better to force the Japanese army to surrender in an established manner in terms of effectiveness, it would also cause a great blow to the morale of the Japanese army.

Why do you say that? The Japanese army is tenacious in combat and the soldiers are determined not to surrender, so it is difficult to capture prisoners. On the other hand, if the Japanese army is captured in large numbers, this also means that their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

When these prisoners are released, they will set a very bad example for the Japanese, which means that they can still go home safely when they are captured on the battlefield. In this way, many Japanese will have fantasies and hope to survive on the battlefield, and their combat effectiveness will naturally decline.

Moreover, after these Japanese soldiers were released, they were a hot potato to the Japanese army. With the virtues of the Japanese army, they would definitely punish these captured soldiers severely and massacre them. In the early stages of the war, even those captured Japanese officers and soldiers who fled back themselves were also severely sanctioned, either went to military courts or were forced to commit suicide.

In this way, the families of these soldiers will be extremely disgusted with the Japanese army. Other ordinary soldiers put themselves in their shoes and will also cause serious psychological resistance to the Japanese army.

In this sense, being able to capture the Japanese army is more brilliant and more important than destroying them.

After all, John Chen has been working with Gao Jiu for a long time and can understand Gao Jiu. He knows that it is already rare to say that Gao Jiu can promise to this level. He said: "It's good that this is good. I will report to my superiors and explain the situation."

Jiang Xiaomei sent Chen John away, returned to the temporary command center, and participated in the combat meeting.

Gao Jiu said: "Brothers, the Military Commission and the underground party hope that we can force the Japanese invaders to surrender. If this can be done, it will play an immeasurable role in cracking down on the morale of the Japanese invaders and dismantling the enemy's army.

However, at this stage, this task cannot be completed. Therefore, I will not accept this task."

When Gao Jiu said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Jiang Xiaomei had already told Huang Shuigen about this in advance, and he had no objection. Gao Jiu and Zhao Guosheng also communicated in advance, but he had no objection.

Gao Jiu continued: "Now we have surrounded the 18th Regiment of the Japanese, and it is certain to destroy them. However, this is too cheap for them.

My opinion is that we all have to work harder and persevere here for a few more days and find ways to catch more living Japanese devils. This will also severely undermine the morale of the Japanese army.

As for the hard work of my brothers, I will definitely thank you very much.”

Needless to say, the people from Taohua Mountain and the Independent Battalion were willing to fight with Gao Jiu. The two supplementary regiments of the 187th Division were very excited. Although it was their first time to cooperate with Gao Jiu, they had heard the legend of Gao Jiu and knew that working with Gao Jiu would definitely get rich rewards. This time they came to Taohua Mountain, they found a big advantage and the task was very easy, just to participate in the siege of the Japanese army surrounded on the mountain, without having to fight tough battles, bad battles, and the merits and rewards could not be eliminated.

The two replenishment regiments expressed their gratitude to Gao Jiu on behalf of the officers and soldiers of the replenishment regiment.

The meeting decided that the second squadron of Guo Hengming, the Taohua Mountain Guerrillas, and Wang Zhankui's cavalry battalion, were responsible for monitoring the 56th Regiment of the Japanese army.

Part 1 of the Taohuashan Guerrillas, Jiang Xiaomei's independent battalion, the main force of the 24th Regiment and two supplementary regiments, were responsible for surrounding the 18th Regiment of the Japanese army, and adopted the tactics of long-term siege to force the Japanese army to surrender.

The 18th Japanese Regiment, which is now surrounded, is already unable to escape. The only aid they may receive is the Japanese Air Force.

Gao Jiu believes that they dare not come to cause trouble anymore, but if the top Japanese troops put pressure on them, the Third Air Force may still send bombers to bomb and airdrop materials on the surrounded Japanese 18th Regiment. Gao Jiu must completely solve this problem.

Gao Jiu drafted a telegram and sent it to Ouyang Xue.

Wuhan.

Because Taohua Mountain was attacked by the enemy, Gao Jiu hurriedly left Wuhan. Ouyang Xue was very worried about Gao Jiu. Later, she found out that after Gao Jiu returned, she severely attacked the Japanese army and achieved significant results. She was very happy for him.

After receiving a telegram from Gao Jiu, Ouyang Xue immediately took people to the warehouse of the aviation committee, took out two anti-aircraft guns, five anti-aircraft machine guns, and a large amount of ammunition, and arranged for the plane to go to Taohua Mountain for airdrops.

These anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns can be dismantled and then assembled after being airdropped to Taohua Mountain.

Because the last time he escorted Gao Jiu to Taohua Mountain, the Air Force now has experience in airdropping in Taohua Mountain. The Air Force decided to carry out this airdrop mission tonight. The location of the airdrop was the airdrop site in Taoyuan Town last time.

After Ouyang Xue arranged the airdrop, she sent a telegram to Gao Jiu.

After receiving the telegram, Gao Jiu was very happy. Now he no longer had to worry about the Japanese Air Force coming to Taohua Mountain to cause trouble.

The highest ceiling of the aircraft currently equipped by the Japanese army is only 5,000 meters. The average altitude of Taohua Mountain itself is nearly 2,000 meters. The range of anti-aircraft guns can reach 3,000 meters. The Japanese aircraft are all within the effective range of anti-aircraft guns. As long as the Japanese planes dare to come, Gao Jiu is sure to tell them that they will come and go.

The anti-Japanese army that participated in the 18th Regiment that besieged the Japanese army this time included the Taohuashan guerrillas, Jiang Xiaomei's independent battalion and the 187th Division. The troops involved were more than 7,000 people. They were eating, drinking, urinating, sleeping, and losing weapons, ammunition, medical supplies, etc., which was a huge expense. In addition, Gao Jiu would definitely not let everyone work in vain and would have to pay a lot of money to reward them. Therefore, this time, there was a heavy bleeding, so Gao Jiu was thinking about where to get some money.

Gao Jiu called Zhao Guosheng and asked him to send a telegram to the Fifth War Zone Command, asking them to pay 200,000 French currency. The Fifth War Zone Command soon replied the telegram, saying that they had reported to the Military Commission for approval and agreed to Gao Jiu's request.

The money is far from enough. Gao Jiu's loss this time is destined. Gao Jiu is not the one who suffers losses. He thought about it carefully and suddenly remembered a way to make money again.

Tai'an.

The captain of Yamamoto's garrison team was unwilling to go to Taohua Mountain to provoke Gao Jiu. This time, out of helplessness, he carried out the orders of the 12th Army Command and sent three brigades to Taohua Mountain. All of them were immediately lost. He was so distressed that he burst into tears.

He hated Gao Jiu very much, but he did not have the courage to cause trouble for Gao Jiu. He had to point his anger at the military police headquarters. His main goal was to formulate the combat plan. He not only protested to the 12th Army Headquarters, but also led the matter to the Japanese headquarters through connections.

Today he was in an extremely bad mood, and he almost didn't eat breakfast or lunch. When it was time for dinner, he was really hungry, so he had a little appetite.

At this moment, he received a call and his appetite disappeared. Not only that, he almost vomited all his stomach acid.

The phone call was called by Hirata, the captain of the Shoucheng County Military Police. He said that the bodies of more than 2,000 officers and soldiers of the Yamamoto Garrison were restrained and asked Captain Yamamoto to send someone to transport the bodies back.

Captain Yamamoto must transport the bodies of the officers and soldiers of Yamamoto's garrison. Because after the Japanese officers and soldiers were killed, as long as conditions permit, they would cremate the bodies of these officers and soldiers, transport their ashes back to Japan, and hand them over to their relatives. The bodies of more than 2,000 Japanese officers and soldiers involved more than 2,000 families, and Captain Yamamoto could not abandon them.

He expressed his gratitude to Captain Hirata and said that he would send someone to transport the bodies back soon.

Before Captain Hirata finished his words, he said that he had received a letter from Takajiu of Taohua Mountain, asking him to tell Captain Yamamoto that Taohua Mountain and Yamamoto's garrison did not violate the river water before, but this time it was Yamamoto's garrison coming to cause trouble, so he taught him a lesson.

Gao Jiu said that it is possible to transport the corpses of Yamamoto's garrison troops back, but they must pay Gao Jiu 100,000 to the ocean, otherwise, these corpses can only be stormed in the wilderness. If you are not convinced, Yamamoto's garrison can send someone to pull the corpses, and Gao Jiu can guarantee that these people will also become corpses.

Not only that, Gao Jiu is also planning to go to Tai'an in person to ask for money from Yamamoto's garrison. Not only will he ask for money, but he will also ask Captain Yamamoto for his life.

Captain Yamamoto was furious and furious. He had never seen such an arrogant bandit. He cursed for ten minutes, but after calming down, he felt amused and crying.

He could not refuse the corpses left in Shoucheng County, otherwise he would not be able to explain to the relatives of the dead officers and soldiers. He was determined not to give money and sent someone to force him to pull them back. Thinking about the terrifying Gao Jiu, it would be better to let it go. It was just to send some more corpses. What's more, he was worried that Gao Jiu would really come to Tai'an, that guy was elusive and he was no match for him, and maybe his life was also explained here.

It seems that it is not possible to not give money, but there is no precedent for giving money. If the superiors find out, they will definitely cause trouble for him. He thought carefully for a long time and decided to kick the ball to the 12th Army Command.

General Haneda received a report from Yamamoto's garrison. He thought about it over and over again, but had no choice but to finally decide to agree to Gao Jiu's request. However, he asked Yamamoto's garrison to find Gao Jiu, hoping that this matter would not be made public and avoid causing bad influence in society.

Captain Yamamoto called Captain Hirata and put forward his own conditions to let Captain Hirata handle the matter personally. Captain Hirata also gave the opinions of the 12th Army Command to the person who sent the letter.

Gao Jiu saw that the Japanese army had agreed to his conditions, and he just wanted to make a fortune, so he agreed to the Japanese army's conditions and said that the matter would not be made public. He asked the Yamamoto garrison to send the ocean over and then send someone to pull the body back.

Although the Japanese army hated Gao Jiu very much, there was one thing they still admired Gao Jiu very much, that is, Gao Jiu was as loyal as a mountain and would never regret what he said.

The Yamamoto Garrison Captain agreed on this deal and felt at ease. However, this deal still made him feel very distressed. Not only did more than 2,000 officers and soldiers die, but he also had to spend 100,000 oceans. This deal also suffered too much loss.

He had no choice but to send a confidant to Tai'an County to hand over the ocean and receive the body.

Taohua Mountain.
