Chapter 117 Meeting
After saying that, Li Zihan ordered Yang Dashu again: "Dashu, take him back, and let him go wherever he comes from."
Yang Dashu looked like he wanted to speak but stopped, but seeing that Li Zihan had no intention of explaining at all, he had to stand upright and whine, and then took the translator Niu away.
As soon as Yang Dashu and Niu Translator left, Ye Ruxue's beautiful figure quietly appeared behind Li Zihan.
"Sir Li, I want to know the content of the secret letter just now." Ye Ruxue said, "I think you should tell me, right?"
Li Zichi looked up at Ye Ruxue's beautiful face coldly and said coldly: "I'm really sorry, I'm afraid I can't tell you."
Within the national military system, the Military Control Commission and the military are two lines, and the relationship between the two sides is not harmonious, because even officers from Huangpu are often monitored by the Military Control Commission. Li Zihan firmly believes that among the veterans he brought from the Third War Zone, there must be spies from the Military Control Commission, but I don’t know which one is.
"Sir Li, I actually know if you don't say it." Ye Ruxue smiled sweetly and continued, "Is it that Commander Xu asked you to meet?"
Li Zihan felt a terrible heart, thinking that Ye Ruxue's intuition was really terrible, and he could guess the content of the secret letter at once. However, on the surface, Li Zihan did not show any expression at all, and said coldly: "No one can tell me."
After saying that, Li Zihan turned around and shouted: "The sea"
Zhao Dahai, who was beating Liu Chang, ran over and stood attentively and said, "There is."
Li Zihan pulled his military uniform and said in a deep voice: "Tell me the order, gather."
"Yes," Zhao Dahai saluted, then turned around and conveyed the order.

"Xu Sang, how are the construction of the terracotta stronghold?" Tengdo Gaoying asked Xu Shijiu with a smile.
Xu Shijiu looked in the direction of Tengdo Gaoying's finger and saw that three artillery towers had been erected on the open ground north of Chitu Village. These three artillery towers were distributed in a shape of a pin, completely controlling the pass road ahead. Moreover, a highway extends from the stronghold to the east and west, completely separating Erlong Mountain in the south and Qingyang Mountain in the north.
More than a dozen bunkers were built around the three main artillery towers.
After seeing these dozen bunkers, Xu Shijiu's face immediately became gloomy.
This terracotta stronghold is almost comparable to a small military fortress
At this time, the gate of the terracotta stronghold had been opened, and the hanging suspension bridge was also laid down. Teams of Japanese soldiers had lined up in four columns and drove into the terracotta stronghold. This time, the terracotta stronghold had only one independent infantry brigade, plus a cavalry brigade. In addition, the terracotta stronghold was originally stationed with another infantry brigade that had just withdrawn from the mountains.
As for the other three infantry brigades, artillery brigades and engineering brigades that independently formed the 14th Brigade, they had already arrived at Chikou three days ago and were preparing to take warships from Chikou to Jiujiang. The Battle of Jinjiang is imminent. The commander of the ll army, Guanzuo and Ichiro, have sent telegrams several times to urge them. Fujido Takayoshi had no way to delay the time, so they could only let some of the main forces take the lead.
At this time, there were two infantry brigades, cavalry brigades, and Weiyuan brigades.
Although the scale of the Terracotta stronghold is large, it is inevitable that it will be a little crowded when two infantry brigades stationed in Little Japan and one cavalry brigade.
Therefore, the Southern Anhui Guard Division of the Imperial Army, who followed Fujido Takayoshi, could only camp outside the stronghold, with nearly 3,000 puppet troops digging fortifications everywhere in the wilderness outside the stronghold, making the dust flying, which was quite a bit strange.
"Xu Sang, I heard that you were from the Seventy-Fourth Army before?" Fujido Takayoshi asked again.
"Yes, I used to be from the 58th Division of the 74th Army." Xu Shijiu said, "In Songhu, Nanjing, Lanfeng and De'an, you all fought with you. You have never been able to get a bargain from our 74th Army."
Tengdo Takayo nodded gently and said, "You are right. The Imperial Army fought with your 74th Army many times, but never took advantage of it. Soon, our No. 1 Army will fight with your 74th Army again. Xu Sang, I wonder what predictions you have made for the next Battle of Jinjiang?"
Xu Shijiu looked at Fujido Gaoying coldly and asked, "Fengjido Gaoying, do you want to hear the truth or do you want to hear lies?"
"I never like to listen to lies." Fujido Takae waved his hand and said, "Of course I want to hear your truth."
"Then don't blame me for being rude." Xu Shijiu said, "In the Battle of Jinjiang, your No. 1 army cannot win, and may even be defeated in a crushing manner."
"Baga" After listening to the translation, several major officers standing behind Takayoshi Fujido were furious. One of them reached out and wanted to draw his sword, intending to give Xu Shijiu a rude guy. But before he could draw out the sword, Takayoshi Fujido's gaze came over with a very sharp look, and the major officer had to let go of his hand awkwardly.
Tengdo Gaoying looked back at Xu Shijiu and smiled and said, "Xu Sang, you are Chinese, so I can understand your mood. Even if you surrender the Imperial Army, I am afraid that China will not be destroyed in my heart, right? But I have to tell you that your hope is destined to be unfulfilled. This time, the Battle of Jinjiang will not be any different from the Battle of Zao. The Chinese army will suffer a crushing defeat again."
Xu Shijiu didn't argue with Fujido Gaoying and said lightly: "Then let's wait and see."
Takayo Fujido smiled and said, "Okay, then let's wait and see."
Speaking, the adjutant Ogasawara came and Ju reported: "Your Excellency General, Ohara Brigade reported that the Niu Translator has returned safely."
"Yo Xi, it seems that Niu Sang has delivered the news smoothly." Fujido Gao Ying nodded happily, turned back to Xu Shijiu and said, "Xu Sang, it seems that you should have set out for the Poison Dragon Valley."
"Okay, then I'll leave now." Xu Shijiu said.

It was late at night and most of the officers and soldiers were asleep.
Liu Chang leaned against a stone, and his hands tied behind him were moving up and down at a very small amplitude.
After staying in the camp, Liu Chang unexpectedly found an extremely sharp edge on the stone behind him, and then approached the stone without a trace. After the two veterans guarding them were asleep, they began to use the hemp rope wrapped around their wrists to grind the sharp edges. At this moment, the hemp rope on their wrists had been broken by half.
But at this moment, a team of patrol soldiers suddenly came over.
Liu Chang quickly tilted his head, leaned against the stone and snored.
The patrol team quickly walked past Liu Chang and found no abnormalities.
After the patrolmen walked away and were sure that the two veterans guarding them had not woken up, Liu Chang's wrists were grinding again. After about ten minutes, there was a slight sound. The hemp rope that tied his wrists finally broke. His hands were regaining freedom in an instant. Liu Chang moved his wrists, which were a little numb, while observing the surroundings vigilantly.
There was still silence around and there was nothing unusual. Liu Chang reached out his hands that had just recovered from freedom to his feet, trying to untie another hemp rope tied to his ankle.
However, before Liu Chang could explain, he heard another voice not far away.
Liu Chang was startled and quickly put his hands behind his back, then leaned against the stone and pretended to fall asleep.
After a while, Li Zihan appeared in front of Liu Chang with Zhao Dahai. Li Zihan stretched out his feet and kicked Liu Chang's ankle. Zhao Dahai also kicked Liu Chang's thighs fiercely. Liu Chang screamed and opened his eyes and said angrily: "What are you doing to your friends like this?"
"A silly friendly." Li Zihan said coldly, "I warn you, it's best not to have any bad thoughts, otherwise, kill them without any slightest."
Liu Chang gritted his teeth and said, "When I go back, I will definitely accuse you of the Chief Office of the Third War Zone, accusing you of abuse of friendly forces and deliberately provoking friction between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. Li Zihan, you have to be responsible for your actions today."
"Am I so scared?" Li Zihan curled his lips disdainfully, and then kicked the two veterans to wake them up, and ordered, "Please cheer me up and don't let them escape."
