Chapter 262: Anne

(...If the war zones of every war can be cleaned before the war and those interfering forces are cleaned up, many of our battles should be much easier. In northern Jiangsu, we have proved this... Excerpted from "My Memories of the War of Resistance - Cao Xiaomin")

Cao Xiaomin was very worried about Han Deqin's despise attitude towards Chen Yi, so he analyzed Chen Yi very seriously: "What Yi Beizhi saw, in the past, whether in the battle or in the later guerrilla warfare, the troops led by Chen Yi fought against us at a disadvantage in both military and equipment, just like we faced the Japanese, so it was normal that we could not defeat us. Especially in the past two years, the main force of the Red Bandits arrived in northern Shaanxi, and Chen Yi's troops fought under the joint attacks of our army from all directions. It was indeed difficult to demand a victory; but didn't we also see a fact, that is, after fighting for so long, we couldn't annihilate them. The result of the joint attacks on all sides was that Chen Yi was still alive!"

When Cao Xiaomin said this, Han Deqin felt a little blushing. Although the commander who fought with Chen Yi was Gu Zhutong, not him, he believed that he had a big gap with Gu Zhutong. Even Gu Zhutong could not destroy Chen Yi, could he be fine? For the first time, he felt Cao Xiaomin's edge. In military terms, this young man really thought and said whatever he wanted.

"Take me as an example. When I went to the battlefield, I was just a pharmacy guy. The first time I went to the trenches, my hands and feet were stiff. Not to mention fighting, I was still confused until today. But now I dare to say that I can fight, which is more likely to fight than many people. Because I have survived so many times, I survived! Chen Yi has survived too!" Cao Xiaomin focused on the next sentence and then said in a more intense tone: "A person who has crawled out of the pile of dead countless times has learned to fight even an idiot. I dare to assert that now, many of us can't beat Chen Yi's equal troops and equal equipment!"

Seeing Cao Xiaomin solemn, several commanders of the 89th Army dared not show any contempt. After dinner, Cao Xiaomin continued to discuss the situation with everyone, and then went back to prepare to set off.

As soon as Cao Xiaomin returned to his camp, he immediately asked the Military Commission task force on duty there: "How is it, have you spoken?"

The military commander was already ready to inform the good news. When he saw the question, he replied happily: "Everyone has spoken. Captain Shen showed them a list and told them that they had beheaded all of these people the night before. He told them that they had received the news.*** When the TK had put their names on the list of traitors who must be killed, they all spoke..."

Shen Zui is quite good at interrogation. In addition, Cao Xiaomin himself didn't know about the number of arrests and treason rates in this time and space were as high as 95%. Liang Xiaokuan and others actually revealed what they knew about the spies lurking in the army and local liaison personnel, and also provided many of them with the list and personnel characteristics of the troops they had taken advantage of the chaos after the Nanjing Defense War but did not know which unit they went to. They also disclosed an important situation: they also had contact with the 57th Army, and the contact level was very high!

Because intelligence is important and it also depends on Liang Xiaokuan and others to help clean up the hidden people mixed in the army and local liaison officers, Cao Xiaomin asked them to stay with Shen Zui for the next period of time.

"It's okay, you just need to help Captain Chen complete the task and then come back; you know, any killing order is a bluff here; here, among the brothers, no one can touch you!" Cao Xiaomin comforted a group of uneasy people, but his mood was very complicated at this moment; he never doubted Liang Xiaokuan, but this sudden change made him understand that there were so many lurkers, and they lurked so deeply.

Is his own safety still guaranteed? Is his brothers' safety still guaranteed? If the other party's camp is really determined to kill someone among them, he is really not sure to defend himself! What he is more worried about is that in the explanation of Liang Xiaokuan and others, he clearly knows what the highest instructions in the other party's camp is. In that spirit, the War of Resistance is just an excuse for others. In fact, the other star has never left the back of his head. However, his side wants to resist the War and cannot resist the War in a vague way. When other star stars behind you aim at you, they resist the War. So many of his brothers, who know and don't know, have to bear the black gun that makes the spine chill at any time when facing the Japanese artillery fire.

"Brother, I once pushed my bayonet into your throat in Nanjing. When you were unconscious, it was true." Liang Xiaokuan suddenly said to Cao Xiaomin: "Are you really worried about continuing to use our group of people in the future?" His words made the others who surrendered together tremble all over, except the one named "local dog".

"Du Dog" is actually an agent of the Military Control Commission. Unexpectedly, he was brought into his army by the villain as an undercover agent. On the day of the operation, he deliberately stood on the side with a firm stand when everyone had a disagreement, but later there was a sensational change of face. It can be said that he turned the situation around at that moment. For the sake of his future work, he did not reveal his identity and continued to monitor his partners as a surrender; no one else knew about this except Cao Xiaomin and Shen Zui.

"It's nothing. You pressed my throat with a bayonet because you were still deceived by them. You don't know who is the real enemy; but didn't you stop? Because we fight together and experience together, you already know that the biggest enemy of our Chinese is the Japanese, not the compatriots; you already know that we are fighting with the Japanese without mercy, not the ones who shouted loudly behind their backs and attacked our compatriots..." Cao Xiaomin glanced at everyone and said, "If I, Cao Xiaomin, were not all determined to fight with the Japanese, would you all be fine anyway? If I were just a cowardly general with a star on my shoulder, would you still tie me up? So it was not because of something else, but because of truly recognizing who is the real War of Resistance and who is the despicable conspirator, that he chose a new position!"

Cao Xiaomin found that he was more and more motivated to speak. After he said this, he felt a little emotionally depressed and felt very awkward. Anyway, the group of people seemed to have finally found a spiritual support for themselves and the key to remove the spiritual shackles of betrayal. Now these people have felt that they were not betrayal but abandoning the darkness and turning to the light and finally found the right direction of life. When they faced the intoxication that quietly walked in again, the inferiority in their eyes was no longer in their eyes, but with a strange spirit.

Before he got drunk, he eavesdropped outside for a while, and then he quickly made a fuss while the iron was hot: "Everyone has also read the list of executions. In fact, there are not many people. As long as people realize their mistakes, we will give them the opportunity to reform themselves. In fact, I understand that you are also victims and have been poisoned by that kind of thought. We have come into contact with many poisoned people, and they all regret it. I regret that I have believed in a thought that makes people go home and fight and even execute their dearest family members and elders who have great kindness to give birth to their own kindness. Think about it, can a thought that even the most basic human nature of humanity be eliminated? It can only be a cult, a magic trick that makes people feel illusioned! I asked everyone to help me find out those who are as confused as you did in each army, just to save them, you are saving them..."

Why do they say this? Suddenly he felt that the intoxicated words were very familiar. Cao Xiaomin listened on the side, as if he had traveled back to another time and space to watch the political commissar instructors in the movie being voted for the officers and soldiers. Perhaps every political party is fighting for the other party's personnel like this?

Cao Xiaomin himself did not expect that this action would be because of this group of surrenders who were wholeheartedly serving, and would help the Military Control Commission to almost raise up a large group of lurkers who were invading the *** troops during the chaotic period of the army after the bloody war in Nanjing. Moreover, it was a vine connected to pull out a large number of lurkers, sweeping away all the lurking forces of the CCP in many troops in northern Jiangsu and even other regions!

"Report! The team has been assembled and can be set off at any time!" As the messenger's report came in, Cao Xiaomin realized that another decisive battle with the Japanese was about to begin. This time, the interference forces in the war zone should be easier, right? Cao Xiaomin felt an unprecedented excitement in his mood. He thought for a while and decided to send a telegram to Chiang Kai-shek to report the situation, and at the same time explained the idea and necessity of preparing Li Tianhao's troops to enter Taizhou. This is not only a statement of loyalty to report everything, but also an urgent need for his own troops. His troops need a simple combat environment too much.

Because these troops were going to move quietly, their direction was to the northwest. Even if they were discovered by the Japanese fighter planes, they would think they were withdrawing. But at night they would suddenly accelerate to the southwest and quickly enter the war zone. Han Deqin also did not come to see him off because the Japanese cannon had already entered Baoying. He just sent a staff officer to send a bounty and some reward supplies and brought his farewell.

Lao Cai and Sun Changqing, who were on the back line, have not yet withdrawn, but the "Northeastern Guy" and Man Han have already escorted the survivors of the survivors of the rear-end troops who had retreated from Gaoyou with cavalry. Cao Xiaomin's old brothers among those groups are alive, but none of them can go south with him. "Old bed bug", "drunk", Liu Junling, "machete", "Xiaobei"... a large group of brothers were all injured. Although they didn't look fatal, the poor medical level still made Cao Xiaomin very worried.

I was worried but helpless, so I could only watch the injured brothers who were transported away by the medical team; I just reunited for a few days, and another group of brothers were about to part with me. These are the brothers in the war. Every time I meet, it is worth cherishing. Who knows if there will be the next Li Bin...
