Chapter 1182 The beginning of the war

Zhao Lan next to him was itchy when he heard this and said anxiously: "Master's seat, deputy master's seat, is this true?"

Tao Liu was stunned when she heard this and said to Zhong Guangren: "Brother Guangren, will you fool us if you say the surname Zhong?"

When Zhong Guangren heard this, he waved his hand and said, "Master, this is not true. Although my family has a bad relationship with our 10th Army, he is still a good person. What he said will be fulfilled. He said that he would send 500,000 kilograms of cornmeal, and that would definitely send 500,000 kilograms of cornmeal!"

"Okay!" Tao Liu clapped his hands fiercely and turned to Zhao Lan and said, "Captain Zhao, go and tell your brothers, hold on. When you return to Ciwu Town, I will invite them to eat cornmeal steamed buns, and they will be full! By the way, not only today, but from tomorrow, you will be full every day!"

"Yes!" Zhao Lan agreed and went there excitedly.

After a while, the officers and soldiers of the Independent Regiment on the road cheered.

Then, the officers and soldiers stood up one after another and began to walk back along the road.

...

The Yinjiang transportation team has set off.

On the road from Yinjiang to Yuyao, Mr. Zhao Xingjiu was carrying a Sanyou bicycle, walking proudly and proudly at the front of the team. He tied a sack on the back seat of his bicycle, containing a hundred kilograms of cornmeal.

Although he was carrying a hundred kilograms of cornmeal, the old man still rode his bicycle up, and even the strong man who was also riding a bicycle next to him could not catch up.

While pedaling the bicycle, the old man turned around and said to a strong man: "Fourth, you can't do it! He is only forty years old and can't catch up with me, the old man. What did you do?"

A young man next to him said with a smile: "The fourth brother has too much land plowing at night."

"Plow the land?" the old man smiled, "Fourth, this is a restrained person. You have never heard of it. There are only exhausted cows and no broken land?"

"Yes." Someone echoed, "The more you plow the ground, the fatter the ox becomes, the thinner it becomes."

"Fourth brother, don't be too busy with your fourth sister-in-law, you're almost losing weight."

Dozens of strong men or young men riding bicycles immediately burst into laughter.

The strong man was not annoyed and said to Zhao Xingjiu with a smile: "Young man, are you fast? Maybe you can be faster than the wheels of a car?"

When Zhao Xingjiu heard the sound, he turned around and saw a convoy of vehicles already driving out of Wangchun Gate, a huge convoy of more than 200 Dodge trucks.

This was a team that Zhong Yi finally formed.

In addition to requisitioning fifty Dodge trucks from the Artillery Regiment, Zhong Yi also borrowed more than 100 vehicles from the factory in Yinjiang Industrial Zone and formed a convoy of more than 200 trucks.

Speaking of which, this convoy is the main force in transportation and maintenance.

Because the trucks are more powerful and faster than their civilian team!

For example, the first batch of military rations sent to the 10th Army and the 41st Army were transported by the convoy.

Of course, their wife also has a unique advantage that truck fleets do not have, that is, they have low requirements for roads and trucks must take highways, but they can even walk on mountain roads.

In a blink of an eye, the truck convoy drove over beside the civilian team, and the dust that was curled up sprayed the old man Zhao Xingjiu's face.

"Bah!" Zhao Xingjiu spat at the truck convoy and groaned, "What awesome? Let's take a look!"

After a pause, Zhao Xingjiu turned around and shouted at the dozen strong men riding bicycles and middle-aged and elderly people pushing carts: "Friends, be careful, don't let people laugh at us! Let's go!"

...

In Yinjiang, Zhejiang and Fujian, the enemy's staff was in the battle of the front.

He Wenxi walked in with several telegrams and whispered: "Seat the seat, temporarily compiled the report of the 33rd Division. The Japanese Navy's ships have been found outside Wenzhou, and there are a large number of them!"

Upon hearing this, Zhong Yi picked up a few war chess and put them on the sand table.

After the release, Zhong Yi said again: "It seems that the Japanese army on the right is about to land."

He Wenxi nodded and said, "And as expected, the Japanese's right-wing army has indeed landed in Wenzhou, and has not landed in Fuzhou as mentioned before."

"What was expected." Zhong Yi said, "Where is the Left Route Army?"

He Wenxi looked through the telegram in his hand and said in a deep voice: "The Japanese right army arrived in Hangzhou in the afternoon. However, since the crossing boats were not ready, the Japanese army did not cross the Qiantang River and rushed eastward, but a brigade had already attacked and advanced towards Fuyang, and now it has passed Xixi!"

Zhong Yi said: "Which unit was Fuyang originally?"

He Wenxi said: "From Tianmu Mountain to Fuyang, the 16th Division was originally stationed by the 16th Division, but after receiving the order from the attendant, the 16th Division had crossed the Fuchun River south and set up defenses between Tonglu County and Zhuji County."

Zhong Yi nodded and then asked: "In other words, now there are only security teams and patrol officers left in Fuyang County?"

"It should be." He Wenxi replied, "After all, the General Staff did not issue an order to allow the security team and patrol officers to retreat."

Zhong Yi said again: "In this way, send a telegram to the 16th Division immediately, asking the 16th Division to send communication troops back to Fuyang County, and tell the security team and patrol officers in Fuyang County that the Japanese must not fight hard when they come. They will retreat to the north wild mountain and Yangmei Mountain after they are dark. When it is dark, they will come out and fire a few shots, and then retreat in the direction of Tonglu."

"Yes." He Wenxi agreed and turned around.

Zhong Yi's eyes fell on the sand table again, and the battle finally began!

...

Almost at the same time, in the western suburbs of Hangzhou.

The 11th Independent Mixed Brigade, which arrived in Hangzhou first, has begun to march along the highway to Fuyang County.

It should be noted that the Left Route Army participating in the Battle of Zhejiang and Fujian did not have three divisions, but two divisions and one brigade. This brigade was an independent mixed 11th brigade.

The 11th Independent Mixed Brigade is also the vanguard of the Left Route Army.

The intention of the Japanese army to form an independent mixed brigade was to guard the garrison.

But in fact, after the Sino-Japanese War entered the stalemate stage, except for the 11th Army under Okamura Yasuji, the rest of the field troops basically had no war to fight. Instead, the independent mixed brigades originally used to guard the place often had to face endless harassment from the Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army and the National Army guerrillas.

Actual combat is the best way to train troops. After more than a year of actual combat, the combat effectiveness of the Japanese independent mixed brigades has already caught up with the major field divisions.

It is precisely because of this that the 11th Brigade, the independent mixed gang, is qualified to become the vanguard of the Japanese left-wing cluster.
