Chapter 283 Zhang Renjie is here
Chen Yi asked Tian Jing to sit next to him, and then he tidied his hair which was a little tangled on his forehead.
Due to the continuous fighting and the evacuation during this period, she had no time to wash her hair before she spoke.
"The last time Hutoushan was attacked by the Japanese army, it suffered heavy losses. The radio station, confidential documents, and captured ammunition were burned. The regiment arranged for someone to report it, and a special commissioner was sent to assist. Now he is in charge of the planning for Hutoushan."
"Who, what's this person's name?" Tian Jing turned her head and asked.
"Zhang Renjie, this damn guy is called Zhang Renjie, a bastard. As soon as he came, all the rights of you brothers were taken away by him." Zhu Ziming spat viciously. He did not notice that Zhou Weiguo's face could no longer be described as gloomy, but murderous intent that could not be concealed.
Zhang Renjie is a man of absolute loyalty, but he is inflexible and blindly carries out the tasks assigned by his superiors without considering the special circumstances of Hutoushan.
Hutou Mountain encountered several crises and suffered losses in troops. The deaths of Li Yong and Xu Guangrong were not caused by him, but they were also related to him. Although Qingfeng Village did not have much influence from him in the previous life, this time, it was because of him that he lost Qingfeng Village.
Compared with these, the death of his father Zhou Jixian was directly caused by him. Later, Tian Jing also died because he received an order to rescue Zhou Jixian.
"Brother, brother, what's wrong with you?" Zhu Ziming saw Zhou Weiguo lowering his head and keeping silent, so he reached out and pulled Zhou Weiguo.
"Oh." Zhou Weiguo came back to his senses and raised his head slightly to look at Zhu Ziming in front of him; "Brother, what are you going to do next?"
"What should we do?" Xu Guangrong trotted to the regiment headquarters at Hutou Mountain. He kicked the door open and looked at the five or six people present. "The Japanese army is coming to Hutou Mountain."
Liu Yuan and Qiu Ming looked at each other, and then their eyes turned to Zhang Renjie who was sitting at the top.
As early as when the Japanese army gathered its forces to march towards Qingfengzhai, Qiu Ming and Liu Yuan persuaded Zhang Renjie that Qingfengzhai and Hutoushan complemented each other, and only the cooperation between the two would be beneficial to the development of Laiyang area.
But Zhang Renjie didn't listen at all. He thought this was the best opportunity for Hutou Mountain to expand outward. He let Qingfeng Village block the attack of the Japanese army, and Hutou Mountain quickly developed around it to give it more room for detour.
I have to say that judging from the instructions from our superiors, this is indeed correct, to strengthen and develop ourselves in battle.
However, judging from the actual situation on Hutou Mountain, the troops, equipment and even the surrounding conditions were not suitable.
The other places were able to develop rapidly because the forces they had to deal with were no more than a squadron or battalion of the enemy, most of which were puppet troops. However, on the Hutoushan side, they were directly facing a Japanese brigade and a puppet army corps.
Not only is the military strength several times that of other places, but the equipment is also incomparable.
In this situation, it is already good enough to preserve the area around Hutou Mountain, but we still want to develop to the periphery. This is obviously a wrong decision.
However, Qiu Ming and Liu Yuan were unable to convince him. Even at the discussion meeting, Li Yong actually voted for Zhang Renjie, resulting in the minority obeying the majority.
Therefore, Qingfengzhai was attacked by the main force of the Japanese army, and the troops from Hutoushan were clearing out the small groups of troops on the periphery.
The situation was very good. Several villages such as Huangcun and Zhaocun were quickly integrated into the scope of Hutoushan, and even several militia teams were formed.
The area has expanded. This is a good thing, but now, Xu Guangrong's words have instantly depressed the entire regiment.
"How many people are here?" Liu Yuan, who was in front of the map, turned his head and asked.
"One battalion. Also, our people who came back from Laiyang said that another battalion is already gathering. Political Commissar, what should we do?"
How to do?
Liu Yuan looked at Li Yong with resentment. "Chief of Staff, the Japanese army is coming. Now that Qingfeng Village is gone to hold us back, tell me how we should resolve this crisis."
Li Yong wanted to talk but hesitated, but he seemed unable to find any solution.
"Oh, it's already late. We should unite as one. I think we can definitely keep the Japanese at the outskirts of Hutou Mountain."
What can we use to stop them?
Liu Yuan looked at Zhang Renjie with gritted teeth. He wanted to ask how Zhang Renjie could stop the encirclement of the other two battalions.
Qiu Ming was smoking a cigarette nearby. After a long while, he pointed at the map and said, "Give up Yang Village and retreat to Hutou Mountain."
"Are you going to retreat without a fight? We have just built up such a good situation, why are we going to retreat without a fight? How will the people in the other villages view us then?" Zhang Renjie pointed out a very important issue.
Xu Guangrong was muttering nearby, "I've told you not to let Qingfeng Village be destroyed, but you didn't listen. Now that the bandits in Qingfeng Village are gone, the Japanese army has nothing to worry about. There will be no one to hold back their transportation lines, Chief of Staff, what are you thinking? Although I, Xu Guangrong, can't stand their indiscriminate robbery, but if they hadn't supported us with a batch of supplies, our Hutou Mountain would have recovered so quickly. You really are a fool."
Xu Guangrong never thought that Li Yong's key vote at the meeting was actually cast for the development of Hutou Mountain. Even a rough man like him understood that Qingfeng Village was not good, but they knew how to steal and rob, and the Japanese army's transportation line made them suffer a lot.
This time, the Japanese army took the lead in attacking Qingfengzhai. The first reason was definitely because Hutoushan had suffered heavy damage, and encirclement and suppression was not very meaningful. The second reason was probably because they were too troublesome, so they had to solve the worries about the transportation line.
Now, all the Japanese army's transportation lines are open, Qingfengzhai is gone, and all their troops can be mobilized to attack Hutoushan.
"I understand the truth, why can't you figure it out?" Xu Guangrong sighed and sat beside him.
Zhang Renjie swallowed his saliva and looked at Xu Guangrong; "Captain Xu, don't be discouraged. We have a will of steel. We must unite and overcome all difficulties, instead of blaming and complaining about each other here. Blaming and complaining will not solve the problem."
At this point, Zhang Renjie pointed to the map; "We cannot evacuate. If we evacuate, it will have a negative impact on the villages that have just been developed. This is not conducive to the development of our Hutoushan, especially Huangcun, which is the most supportive of us. If we evacuate when we encounter problems, the other villages that are waiting and watching will be afraid to act rashly. We must tell the Japanese army that we are capable and can protect the safety of the people."
"There will be no more Huangcun." Zhou Weiguo said with a sigh, putting his hands behind his back.
"You...what did you say? Are the Japanese army...are they going to massacre the whole village?" Chen Yi was shocked. She had just talked about the situation in Huang Village. Originally, she wanted to talk about the current situation in Hutou Mountain, but she didn't expect that Zhou Weiguo not only interrupted her, but also said such a terrible sentence.
