It was really simple for Hu Xiaomin to send people to contact Yu Jitai through the Military Control Commission. This was also a matter of instigation and rebellion for Chongqing, and the Military Control Commission was very supportive.

In addition, the Third Division of the New Fourth Army also sent someone to send letters to Yu Jitai, asking him not to become a sinner of the country and the nation, nor to become a real traitor. The Japanese are rabbits who cannot grow their tails, so they let him leave a way out for themselves.

Yu Jitai naturally ignored the New Fourth Army's persuasion to surrender. In his opinion, the Communist Party is just helping the local buns, what can it do? Even if he surrenders, he must surrender to the Chongqing government.

However, Yu Jitai, who had no idea, took the blame without realizing it.

He was still very interested in sending people to contact him in the third war zone. After all, the Japanese and puppets are on a downward trend now. If he can return to Chongqing, he will be a generation of "famous anti-Japanese generals" in the future.

However, when Yu Jitai was stepping on two boats, he received a notice from the Subei Pacification Office asking him to go to Nantong to hold a military conference.

Yu Jitai took a look at the notice. This was a meeting chaired by Hu Xiaomin, and he threw the notice aside. He was the commander of the army, and Hu Xiaomin was just a chief of staff. Why should he listen to him?

However, two days later, the two Japanese military police arrived at the Third Army headquarters and took Yu Jitai away.

Although Yu Jitai was the commander of the army, he was nothing in front of the Japanese military police. He followed the Japanese military police onto the car, and only after arriving in Nantong did he realize that this was done by Hu Xiaomin.

Hu Xiaomin sneered and said, "Captain Yu, we have mastered the correspondence between you and the Third War Zone. In addition, we also learned that you have colluded with the Eighth Brigade of the Third Division of the New Fourth Army."

The Japanese would not care too much about Yu Jitai's connection with the Third War Zone. After all, focusing on the New Fourth Army is the most important thing. But if Yu Jitai's Third Army colluded with the New Fourth Army, the Japanese would never agree.

Yu Jitai almost jumped up: "Fuck! Hu Xiaomin, don't swear at others. When did I have any contact with the New Fourth Army?"

Hu Xiaomin said lightly: "So, it is true that you have interacted with the Third War Zone."

Yu Jitai said disapprovingly: "I used to serve as the chief officer of the Third War Zone Commander and Chief Office, but I was just a few old friends talking about the past."

Most of the people in the Nanjing government have some connection with Chongqing. Even Wang Zhiqing was originally the vice president of the Kuomintang. It is nothing he talked about with the people in the Third War Zone.

Hu Xiaomin sneered: "It's certainly nothing if it's just a reminiscence, but if they advise you to serve Chongqing secretly, the nature will be different."

Yu Jitai said lightly: "They can persuade me to play for Chongqing, and I can also persuade them to participate in Mr. Wang's peace movement."

He knew that Hu Xiaomin was a spy, and he was extremely reluctant to deal with such a person. No pure soldier would want to deal with a spy.

What else do these spies know besides conspiracy?

Hu Xiaomin suddenly asked: "Did you sign a non-aggression treaty with the New Fourth Army?"

Yu Jitai said confidently: "It's absolutely nothing."

Hu Xiaomin sneered: "According to our investigation, your subordinates colluded with the New Fourth Army and deliberately turned their guns to the sky when fighting with them. They also deliberately attacked the troops fighting with the New Fourth Army and gave them to the New Fourth Army to make dumplings."

Yu Jitai retorted: "You have never brought soldiers, so it's not surprising that I say such words. However, if you falsely accuse me of this reason, it will become a joke for others after reporting it."

Hu Xiaomin said lightly: "Everything I said has credentials. According to the information I received, the Third Division has recently taken action against your unit. Not only did you not take action, you gave the plan to the New Fourth Army."

Yu Jitai said coldly: "Speak nonsense!"

In the next few days, Yu Jitai was detained in Nantong, and he had to explain his contact with the Third War Zone and the New Fourth Army. Regarding the contact with the Third War Zone, Yu Jitai only admitted that he was an old friend to reminisce about the past. Yu Jitai denied the contact with the New Fourth Army.

Whether in the past, present or future, he regards the Communist Party as his enemy, so how could he contact the New Fourth Army?

However, during Jitai's period in Nantong, the 8th Brigade of the Third Division of the New Fourth Army in northern Jiangsu and the Liandong, Binhai, Fudong and Funing Corps attacked the Third Army of the Puppet "Xingya National Salvation Army". In three days, the four detachments of the Yu army and the First Security Regiment of the Security Brigade, a total of more than 3,500 people were defeated, killing and wounding 250 puppet troops, capturing 261 people, and restoring the area of ​​50 miles north and south and 90 miles east and west, explaining more than 50,000 people in the pseudo-demolished area.

After Hu Xiaomin learned the news, he interrogated Yu Jitai again and told him the news.

Hu Xiaomin threw the battle report to Yu Jitai and sneered, "Look, more than 3,000 people were defeated by a brigade of the New Fourth Army and several local armed forces. Are you fighting against the New Fourth Army? It is completely in cooperation with the New Fourth Army's actions."

Yu Jitai was so angry that he cursed: "If you hadn't seized me, would there have been such a crushing defeat?"

If he had directed himself, even if he was defeated, he would not have been defeated so ugly.

Hu Xiaomin said lightly: "Facts are better than words. From now on, you will no longer be the commander of the Third Army of the Xingya National Salvation Army."

Yu Jitai said angrily: "I want to report to the Military Commission, and I want to report to Chairman Wang in person."

Hu Xiaomin sneered: "By your correspondence with the third war zone, it is enough to remove your post. In addition, if Mr. Wang knew about this crushing defeat, you might not only be removed from office, but also go to prison."

Hu Xiaomin's words were like a basin of cold water, which suddenly poured Yu Jitai into sobering. Yes, he did have letters with the Third War Zone, and also talked about the possibility of returning to Chongqing in the future. The Third Division of the New Fourth Army did write many letters of persuasion to him. In order to deal with the New Fourth Army, he also replied, but he did not express his attitude.

If Wang Jiqing saw these letters, his fate would be more than dismissal.

Other troops in the North Suzhou Pacification Office were originally despised Hu Xiaomin. However, after the Yu Jitai incident, Hu Xiaomin issued another order, and the troops below were very active.

Like the commanders of the 10th, 12th, 22th and 29th Divisions, as long as they come to Nantong, they must sit at "Chief of Staff Hu". In addition to reporting on the work of the troops, they will not go empty-handed. After all, everyone knows Hu Xiaomin's "hobby".

These division commanders have secretly dealt with the Third War Zone and the New Fourth Army. If their handles fall into Hu Xiaomin's hands, the division commander will not be able to take charge and the person will be arrested. Instead of cramming at that time, it is better to burn some incense for Hu Xiaomin as soon as possible.

Originally, after Zhao Shijun's death, some people felt that Hu Xiaomin's position was unstable, but they did not expect that Hu Xiaomin's power was even greater than before.
