After receiving a telegram from the brigade commander, gangcun Ningji decisively ordered the brigade commander to lead the troops to retreat.

Gangcun Neji realized the huge danger and asked the brigade commander to give up all baggage and heavy weapons, and all personnel retreated with ease. As long as they could quickly escape contact with the enemy, they would be victorious. He didn't know that the Japanese army in this brigade had no heavy weapons and baggage.

The Japanese brigade commander no longer wanted to fight the enemy. After hearing the order, he immediately issued an order to turn in.

He got into the car and fled northeastward first.

After the officers and soldiers of the 7th Brigade of the Huang Jie Army repelled the Japanese attack, everyone was very excited. They had never fought such a happy battle before, and they were ready to wait for the Japanese army to attack again.

The brigade commander of the 7th Brigade, the deputy brigade commander and others were talking to Wang Xiaodong and others in the command center.

The brigade commander said, "Brother Wang, your Taohua Mountain guerrillas are really powerful. With so many advanced weapons and equipment, no wonder the Japanese always defeated the war in front of you."

Wang Xiaodong was a little unhappy when he heard this. He said, "Traveler, my Ninth Master won a battle, but not only rely on these advanced weapons and equipment, but even with rifles and grenades, we can still destroy these Japanese troops.

What's more, these advanced weapons and equipment were all saved up by my Jiuye little by little.

Thinking back to the beginning, when my Jiuye was on Taohua Mountain, I didn’t even have a gun when I just pulled up the team. Later, I seized an old sleeve without rifle. With this gun, I shot down this big business with one knife and one shot."

When the brigade commander heard this, he hurriedly said, "Brother Wang, I don't mean that. Your Jiu Ye is really a god-like man. In just a few years, he actually created such a huge family business. It's really admirable."

They were chatting, and suddenly there was a burst of cheers coming from outside.

Soon, a combat staff officer ran in and shouted loudly: "Report to the brigade, the Japanese have fled."

The brigade commander, deputy brigade commander and others of the 7th Brigade were a little confused when they heard this news and couldn't react for a moment. In their impression, the Japanese army was extremely arrogant. Not to mention that the enemy outside had a brigade, even if the Japanese army was just an infantry brigade, they would not have been defeated and fled like this after an attack.

Wang Xiaodong said excitedly: "No need to ask, it was my Jiuye who led the army to arrive. The brigade quickly led your troops out to pursue the Japanese invaders."

Hearing this, the brigade commander, deputy brigade commander, and chief of staff of the 7th Brigade looked at each other.

To be honest, the psychological shadow caused by the Japanese army's strength could not be dissipated so quickly, and they did not dare to leave their positions to pursue the Japanese army.

Seeing the brigade commander and deputy brigade commander look a little embarrassed, the chief of staff said: "Brother Wang, there are many Japanese people, and they will not retreat like this. They must be playing tricks and trying to trick us out. They set up ambush outside and want to beat us up. I suggest that we stick to our position and wait for your Jiuye to lead the army to arrive before we talk."

Wang Xiaodong urged them twice. Seeing that they did not dare to go out to fight, he had no choice but to send a telegram to report the news to Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu and others were marching urgently. When they heard that the Japanese invaders had run away, he was a little discouraged and said with emotion: "Gangcun Ningji is worthy of being a famous Japanese general. If he was in charge of the Japanese Southern Front Army, this battle would be difficult to fight in the future."

After thinking about it, Gao Jiu ordered the troops to stop advancing. He sent a telegram to Wang Xiaodong, asking him to inform the brigade commander of the 7th Brigade of Huang Xiejun to abandon the existing defense zone and retreat to the area currently controlled by the coalition forces.

The brigade commander of the 7th Brigade was worried that the Japanese army would gather to take revenge. When he heard Gao Jiu's request, he immediately ordered the troops to retreat southwest.

Gao Jiu returned to Fengdu County and sent telegrams to the Guofu, underground party and the Military Command headquarters, asking them to send important officials to Fengdu County.

Not long after, a person in charge of the Southern Guerrilla Zone of the Underground Party was very close to their guerrilla zone, so he took the lead in rushing to Fengdu County and first met with Gao Jiu.

After communication, he expressed satisfaction with Gao Jiu's subsequent arrangements and expressed his gratitude to Gao Jiu on behalf of the underground party organization.

Immediately afterwards, the heads of the Military Control Commission and the Guofu also arrived, both of them were Gao Jiu's old acquaintances.

The people from the Military Control Commission were Wang Xilin and Zhou Mingshan, and the Guofu sent Li Fengming, the Operations Director of the Ninth War Zone.

The old friends were very happy to meet, and Gao Jiu hosted a banquet to entertain them.

At the banquet, Gao Jiu told them about his next arrangement. They all expressed their concerns and said that Shangfeng would not agree to such an arrangement.

Gao Jiu's intention was that there are now 19 counties in the areas controlled by this generation. Gao Jiu planned to hand over these areas to the Ninth War Zone, the headquarters of the Military Command and the underground party.

Both Wang Xilin and Li Fengming said that they had received orders from their superiors and did not allow the underground party to intervene in this area.

Gao Jiu didn't care about so many things. He always did things fairly. He said: "In this battle, the underground party sent more than 20,000 people. Most of the main battles were fought by others. After the territory was captured, the territory was not distributed to others. How can this be reasonable? I can't control what conflicts there are between you. Since everyone trusts me, I will have to do it in one go.

Besides, you are the ones who really take advantage of it. I will hand over all the Yellow Army troops who abandoned the darkness and turned to the light to you. This is trained and now there are more than 30,000 well-equipped people. I have given them to you for nothing. What else can I not satisfy?”

Wang Xilin, Zhou Mingshan and Li Fengming all respected Gao Jiu, and it was precisely because Gao Jiu was righteous and never treated his friends unfairly. In fact, they agreed with Gao Jiu's distribution, but before they left, they accepted the orders from their superiors and they had to do so.

Since Gao Jiu has made up his mind, no one has any objections. They know that Shangfeng will not have any objections to Gao Jiu because of this. What's more, Gao Jiu helped the Guofu recover so many lost lands and added so many troops to the Guo army, so they couldn't say anything.

Things were settled, and soon Gao Jiu convened a joint meeting between the underground party, the Military Control Commission and the Ninth War Zone.

At the meeting, Gao Jiu presided over justice and distributed nine of the 19 counties to the underground party to control, seven counties to the Ninth War Zone, and three counties to the Zhongyi National Salvation Army controlled by the Military Control Commission.

These three companies have received such great benefits and are very satisfied. They thank Gao Jiu together.

In this battle in Hubei, Gao Jiu spent a lot of money. The old brothers in Taohua Mountain sacrificed a lot of people, and their weapons, equipment and money also suffered huge losses.

Gao Jiu could not suffer this loss, so he asked the underground party, the Ninth War Zone and the Military Control Commission to confiscate Japanese and puppet assets from the areas they controlled, and hand over part of it to Gao Jiu's Taohua Mountain guerrillas as compensation.

All three families know that Gao Jiu suffered huge losses in this battle, and they are willing to compensate him according to Gao Jiu's request.

After the matter was completed, Gao Jiu planned to leave Hubei.

Just the night before Gao Jiu decided to leave, the underground party found Gao Jiu, saying that the base just opened was not stable enough and the enemy situation around him was serious. He hoped that Gao Jiu and his Taohuashan guerrillas would stay here for a while, and they would be willing to provide all the food and salary.

After the head of the underground party left, Gao Jiu also found Gao Jiu, saying that they had also received orders from the top, hoping that Gao Jiu could stay in this area for a while and help them consolidate their rule over here.

To be honest, Gao Jiu was really worried. It was because among the Japanese troops here, there was a powerful senior Japanese general like gangcun Ningji. If he left by himself, these three families were probably not opponents of gangcun Ningji for the time being.

Gao Jiu could not watch them being wiped out by the Japanese army. The land that he had finally captured fell into the hands of the Japanese army again, so he agreed to their request and continued to lead the Taohuashan guerrillas to stay in Fengdu County.

Gao Jiu's concerns were soon fulfilled. Soon after, the anti-Japanese situation here changed a lot, and the enemy situation became more and more serious.

Gao Jiu heard a bad news, which made him very depressed.

The bad news first came from the underground party, and then the Military Control Commission also confirmed it.

The bad news is that the commander of the Japanese Southern Front Army has been replaced, and the newly appointed commander is the famous gangcun Ningji.

The bad news came one by one.

First of all, in view of the serious rebellion in the Huang Jiejun in the last battle, gangcun Ningci strengthened his control over the Huang Jiejun troops, and he replaced all the deputy positions in the Huang Jiejun troops with the Japanese, and they were responsible for supervising the Huang Jiejun.

These deputy positions are the second-in-command on the surface, but in fact they have the final say. This means that the troops of the Huang Jiejun will be directly commanded by the Japanese army in the future.

Not only that, in order to strengthen the control of the Huang Jiejun, gangcun Ningji also dispatched Japanese troops to all the Huang Jiejun troops at a ratio of 20:1.

That's not all. He issued an order to rectify all the Yellow Army troops for a two-month period.

Under the series of operations of gangcun Ningji, it is much more difficult to instigate Huang Xiejun than before.

The second bad news made Gao Jiu even more sad.

In the last battle, gangcun Ningji discovered that the Japanese army's operations did not receive cooperation from the air force at all. He had noticed this before. Almost every battle that Gao Jiu fought, the Japanese army that fought with Gao Jiu had basically not received cooperation from the air force.

He concluded that the Japanese Air Force must have reached a tacit understanding with Gao Jiu, or even secretly communicated with the music. If this problem is not solved, the Japanese army's advantage will basically no longer exist.

After serving as commander of the Southern Front, he ordered his subordinate Special High School to launch a secret investigation of the Japanese Air Force, and soon discovered the secret: Special High School found that the Japanese Air Force had secretly colluded with Gao Jiu and obtained important evidence.

Gangcun Neji knew that due to different ranks of the Japanese Army and Air Force, he could not directly deal with the collaborators in the Air Force, so he wrote a report and personally flew to the Japanese base camp to report on this important situation.

The Japanese base camp is very dissatisfied with the current situation on the Chinese battlefield and attaches great importance to the situation provided by gangcun Neji.

In view of the long-standing conflict between the Army and the Air Force, a senior Japanese Army official helped gangcun Ningji secretly ask for Tian Huang Bixia, and he reported the situation to Tian Huang Bixia.

Japan's Tian Huang was extremely furious and demanded a thorough investigation of the matter. He made an important decision, that is, on mainland China, all the Japanese air force, whether administrative or command, were left to the three fronts, so that the Japanese army on mainland China was completely controlled by the Japanese army.

After gangcun Neji took this power, he immediately rectified the seventh and eighth air force air force he belonged to.

He ordered the UHC to select a group of capable agents into the Air Force command and monitor them directly.

In the future, if the Air Force does not implement the front army's orders, gangcun Neji has the right to deal with them directly, and no longer need to seek opinions from senior Air Force leaders.

Gao Jiu soon got news from the Japanese Air Force, and he knew that the next battle would be difficult to fight.

The reason why Gao Jiu suffered very little in the war was closely related to his tacit understanding with the Japanese Air Force. Just like in the current battle in Hubei, if the Japanese army dispatched the air force to bomb, the coalition forces could not bear it at all. If gangcun Ningji mobilized the army and launched an attack with the cooperation of the air force, the newly captured areas could not be defended, and it would also cause major casualties to the coalition forces.

Gao Jiu must be prepared to deal with the worst situation.

He urgently sent a telegram to the Golden Triangle, asking them to airlift a large number of air defense weapons. Today, the Golden Triangle can produce anti-aircraft machine guns. Although the range of anti-aircraft machine guns is limited, they can effectively prevent Japanese bombing from being bombed at low altitudes.

Gao Jiu distributed these anti-aircraft machine guns to the coalition forces and sent special forces members to conduct operation training.

Gao Jiu also knew that this method was to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. The most critical issue was to prevent the Japanese Air Force from participating in the battle against the coalition forces.

After careful analysis, Gao Jiu discovered a problem, that is, gangcun Ningji knew that the Japanese air force had secretly communicated with him, but did not investigate the relevant personnel of the Japanese air force, but only sent personnel from the special high school department to enter the air force to supervise, which shows that Okamura Yanji was afraid of throwing a mouse.

You should know that after several years of hard work by Gao Jiu, the Japanese Air Force on mainland China has formed a consolidated community of interests with Gao Jiu. This matter involves too many people. The so-called law does not blame the public, and gangcun Neji cannot carry out a major cleansing at all.

You know, although Japan is an industrial power and it is easy for them to produce military aircraft, it is not a matter of overnight development to train pilots, especially aviation commanders.

If gangcun Neji forcibly punishing those air force personnel, it will not only weaken the combat effectiveness of the air force, but even the top leaders of the Japanese Air Force will never allow him to do so unless you take the Japanese Air Force in one fell swoop, which is simply unimaginable.
