Chapter 564
When Cao Ning thought, if you can't take a bus, then take a boat again. Anyway, Huang Jinbao's boat is there.
So nearly 4,000 of them returned to Lianyungang.
It took only half a day to go from Lanshan to Lianyungang. When Cao Ning and the others got ashore, the spies were still waiting there.
It is no secret that Huang Jinbao was conducting exercises on the sea in front of Lianyungang. So those people knew that after the exercise, Cao Ning would dock.
Sure enough, they finally saw Cao Ning.
When he got off the ship, a Japanese magistrate came. He informed Cao Ning that Cao Ning's group of people could not stay in the city and had to leave the city immediately.
"Then where will we go?" Cao Ning asked.
The Grandpa pointed to the north and said, "After the arrangement of the Colonel, you were arranged to the stone bridge. There is a free military camp there, which can accommodate more than 2,000 people. You can squeeze in and you can live."
Cao Ning almost cursed. I just came from Lanshan, but you asked me to go back. If I had known this, I wouldn't have to come.
The stone bridge belongs to Jiangsu and Lianyungang, but it is close to Shandong. It is only twenty miles from Shiqiao to Lanshan. However, the stone bridge belongs to Lianyungang, but it is nearly two hundred miles away.
However, since the Japanese have decided, they have to go.
Cao Ning and Huang Jinbao returned with their men and horses and got back on the boat again.
When the ship left, Cao Ning was worried. He asked all the ships to drive towards Shanghai, giving people the feeling that Cao Ning and the others had returned to Shanghai.
After waiting for the boat to travel for dozens of miles, Cao Ning ordered the boat to turn around and travel to the stone bridge in batches, several miles apart.
Cao Ning's move immediately made the spies fool.
So the telegram flew in the sky.
"Cao Ning left Lianyungang."
"Huang Jinbao's team left Lianyungang."
"After Cao Ning got ashore, he met a major from the local garrison. He then left Lianyungang and drove back to Shanghai."
“…”
When Wang Jingwei received the telegram, he couldn't help but be stunned.
He was thinking of a way to harm Cao Ning, but the others ignored him and went back to the camp.
So, Wang Jingwei sent a newspaper to Yoshikawa, asking why Cao Ning didn't get ashore in Lianyungang?
Yoshikawa read the telegram and immediately threw it into the wastebasket.
What's the matter? Asking me? I didn't even have the idea of replying to the telegram.
Yoshikawa knew why! Cao Ning sent a telegram to Yoshikawa on the ship and talked about the arrangements of the Lianyungang garrison.
Yoshikawa replied to Cao Ning: Some things seem to be bad things, but maybe they are good things.
Cao Ning immediately understood what Yoshikawa meant.
Shiqiao is far from Lianyungang, but it is even further from Yancheng.
At present, Wang Jingwei's tens of thousands of troops have arrived in Taizhou and have already been in trouble with the New Fourth Army. The battle is about to break out.
But Cao Ning was on the way to Shiqiao.
In this case, it is impossible for Wang Jingwei to use the method of gathering teams to harm Cao Ning. Cao Ning is five or six hundred miles away and there are no car transporters. It takes two or three days to go from Shiqiao to Yancheng. If you walk slowly, how can you go slow? Will it be okay if you can go ten days?
Will Cao Ning leave quickly? The answer is definitely not!
So, saying this gave Cao Ning a good opportunity.
When Cao Ning told Huang Jinbao this analysis, the idiot grinned happily.
It was only half a day before going to Shiqiao, but Cao Ning's ship headed to Shanghai first and then walked back, and then at a low speed. As a result, they walked on the sea for a day and a night.
While at sea, Cao Ning asked Huang Jinbao to silence their radio station. In this way, Wang Jingwei wanted to know where Cao Ning was, and no one told him.
Is it Cao Ning who sent the telegram? A joke, Cao Ning must have used the telegram to defecate.
...
Just as Cao Ning and his friends were visiting the sea, the situation changed.
The Peace Army wanted to wait until Cao Ning's matter was resolved before going to fight, but the New Fourth Army didn't think so. You have hit someone's doorstep. If he doesn't say anything, wouldn't he be afraid?
Therefore, this battle must be fought.
What is important is that Yan'an's orders immediately and resolutely eliminate the army of these traitors.
So, the New Fourth Army began to implement the original plan.
One of Wang Jingwei's puppet army had never fought with the New Fourth Army in the past, and he did not know the depth and speeded up the marching. The other army was an old soldier, who knew the strength of the New Fourth Army, so they slowed down.
This fast and slow caused the two armies that were supposed to go in both directions to be very far apart, one day apart.
It is impossible for the New Fourth Army to seize such a good opportunity.
So, the headquarters of the New Fourth Army issued an order: ordering the two columns of the New Fourth Army around the reckless Peace Army's Third Army to immediately encircle the Peace Army's Third Army.
At the same time, another column set up a blocking position in front of the turtle-speed Peace Army's Fifth Army to prevent them from supporting the Peace Army's Third Army.
Three hours after the order was issued, the battle began.
When the Third Army of the Peace Army reached Shifeng Mountain, it was attacked by fierce guns and bullets.
The commander of the Third Army of the Peace Army immediately arranged a counterattack.
However, people set up positions on both sides of the mountain, you are below and above, and they kill you, just follow the trend, which is convenient and quick. When you fight back, you will risk being killed.
Suddenly, the Peace Army was in chaos. In the end, the officials could no longer command the soldiers, and some soldiers even shot and killed the officials. Then the soldiers hung out white flags and shouted: "Let's surrender! Don't shoot at us!"
Not to mention, this move of Tratin. The New Fourth Army no longer shoots them.
Seeing that they were safe, the other puppet troops followed suit. They raised the white flags one after another.
For a moment, white flags were flying everywhere.
The commander of the Peace Army's three armies was so angry that he ordered the soldiers who had hung the white flag to be punished. However, those who went to punish them were either killed by the New Fourth Army or by the soldiers who had hung the white flag.
At this time, they don’t care whether you are the chief or not. They want to survive, and you want them to die. Therefore, they can only send the lives of those officers first.
After the battle started, seeing that the situation was unfavorable, the commander of the three armies of the Peace Army sent a report to Wang Jingwei, asking for rescue and support.
Wang Jingwei is also an amateur in military affairs. He just believes that the two armies have 60,000 to 70,000 people. To deal with the 20,000 to 30,000 New Fourth Army in Yancheng, it should be a sure thing to grab the snails with all fingers. What kind of weapon is the New Fourth Army and what kind of weapon is the Peace Army?
It was not until the Third Army's telegram called for help that Wang Jingwei realized that he was impulsive.
At this time, he thought of a question: why did the Kuomintang army's actions against the Communist Party ended in failure for several years?
The Communist Party is a hard bone!
Thinking of this, Wang Jingwei became worried.
Chapter completed!
