(...The war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party forces occurred at most during certain Sino-Japanese wars, especially when the victory and defeat were hanging on the front line in the middle and late periods. This is often the weakest time for one side to fight. In fact, the two parties have never had the so-called honeymoon period... Excerpted from "My Memories of the War of Resistance - Cao Xiaomin")

There were still dried blood stains on the platform of the train station, purple-black, but a layer of loess ash was sucked. Looking down from the train, you could see many of the officers and soldiers who were so tired that they were sleeping in the drainage ditches outside the platform. Now all kinds of ditches have become trenches, and these trenches are the only bunkers on this flat ground that the officers and soldiers can avoid attacks on Japanese aviation machine guns. As for the heavy bombs to be smashed... If you are so lucky, you can get caught, what else can you say? It will evaporate on earth.

"I heard that the station has been taken down for less than three hours. The brothers of the 58th Division and the 155th Division were very helpful. They used people to fill the trenches of the Japanese..." "Fifty-Eighth Division? That's the brothers of the 74th Army? That's nothing to say, that's really interesting. Look at the battle between the Japanese soldiers in Taierzhuang. Isn't it just an independent brigade of the 74th Army coming up to fight side by side with us?" "Damn it, this battle to encircle and annihilate the Japanese soldiers is not as good as our 60th Army. If we cut off the rear and take the enemy, we will use us..." This train was filled with brothers of the Yunnan Army. When they retreated from the Xuzhou battlefield, they had already been half injured in the entire army. Just a few hours ago, they were not sure whether to get off the train and evacuate on foot, but now it's not necessary. Yu Jishi's two divisions finally occupied Luowang Station and they can pass.[]

"You don't have to get off the car. After adding water and coal at the front of the car, set off..." Several military policemen saw a low-level officer jumping down and went forward to say hello...

"I have a situation to report..." the officer said: "On the way here, I saw four Japanese planes chasing one of our planes. They are small transport planes. I don't know the model, but I have seen the commander take a small transport plane to meet several times... I want to report on the situation. Our plane will probably be shot down. I can mark it on the map in which area..."

"General Cao Xiaomin's plane probably landed in the Guide defense line. According to the witnesses, it is not a Japanese-occupied area, but it is also very close to the large Japanese troops. It is estimated that the Japanese army will also send troops to search..." The staff officer reported to Chiang Kai-shek on the map: "Now the defense line in the Guide area has begun to shrink. Unless the General Command issued an order, they will no longer send search troops to advance east..."

"I have to see people and die!..." Chiang Kai-shek gave the final order to the Special Operations Team of the Gendarmerie...

"I want to see people and die!..." Almost at the same time, Li Tianhao was also giving orders...

How could I take the blame for killing Chen Yi like this? Li Tianhao has been prepared for a long time. If you don’t meet Chen Yi, just confirm that he has crossed the river, and send a spy team to kill them all with one shot... The surveillance work started in Jiangnan, and it is necessary to confirm that the person crossed the river is Chen Yi.

What? How many people did you think of the New Fourth Army? Li Tianhao was shocked: At this time, he had to report a small army of the New Fourth Army to come to Jiangbei in order to avoid the Japanese army's blockade and search. The order he agreed to let them avoid temporarily was given by himself. However, the personal soldiers who secretly arranged to monitor the police urgently reported on the phone that "the number of New Fourth Army soldiers crossing the river was no less than 500..."

Oops! Li Tianhao secretly called out: Five hundred people occupied a small ferry, which would be a beachhead! If Chen Yi was just a river, he just made cover by the river and arranged for other New Fourth Army troops to cross the river, then... cold sweat suddenly emerged from his face.

It's so dangerous! Li Tianhao secretly called luck: he had originally wanted to deal with the situation after assassinating Chen Yi, so he prepared a unit as an emergency maneuver. It was precisely because he always had this idea that many Japanese transport teams were stranded on the road and were harassed by guerrillas without scattering all the large troops in his hands to encircle and annihilate them. At this moment, he finally saved himself with his cautious care, otherwise he would not be able to free up his troops to deal with the New Fourth Army!

"If I were not in the river, how could I attract their attention? Don't worry, little kid, just go and send me a message saying that I, Chen Yi, has arrived..." Chen Yi has actually arrived outside Taizhou City!

Just as Li Tianhao's people were monitoring the roads along the New Fourth Army headquarters to the riverside, waiting for Chen Yi to appear, he had already crossed the river. In fact, he arrived in Jiangbei the night he decided to cross the river, because he knew that once the meeting conditions were agreed, Cao Xiaomin's people would definitely monitor him on each road. Chen Yi had no fantasies about cooperation negotiations. He just wanted to divert Cao Xiaomin's attention with himself and let the New Fourth Army's third column and fourth column cross the river. Of course, he could not let Cao Xiaomin grasp his whereabouts.

"Order all departments to strictly prevent all positions. If you find that the New Fourth Army is approaching, you will immediately attack it!... The artillery prepared to shoot according to the following parameters, and immediately return it after preparation!... All mobile reserve troops set off..." After a series of orders, Li Tianhao personally took the guard company to set off. After his thoughts, he suddenly found that he could no longer wait because he could capture or kill Chen Yi alive. If the New Fourth Army's five hundred people came to establish a beachhead position... While they were not yet stable, attack with all their strength and drive them back!

He is cautious but bold, and is absolutely decisive and not greedy at critical moments. This is Li Tianhao. When he thinks the taste is wrong, he puts stability first!

"You guys heard that they were fighting well in Jiangnan, and even the Japanese dared to burn the Japanese airport? You have a good idea!"

"That's nothing. When my buddy takes a breath, I dare to go to Shanghai to burn Hongqiao Airport..."

"Blow it, you guys, just fight for a few seconds and you're going to Shanghai? Why did you fight with the Japanese before? We haven't seen it before..."

"What are you saying? We dare not fight with the Japanese? Just you can?... Make a bet with you. Three days later, my troops will fight Shanghai..."

The New Fourth Army troops who passed through the Yangtze River were very regular and rested at designated positions arranged by the National Army. Because the two sides worked together to cooperate in this battle and had big moves on both sides of the Yangtze River, the officers and soldiers on both sides were also very harmonious. After all, they were all Chinese...

"Company Commander! Telephone..." With the arrival of the messenger, the conversation between the highest commanders of both sides ended.

"Brother, I'll go and answer the phone. Come back and bring the old wine jar to the brothers..." The commander of the Kuomintang turned around and went...

"Did you all have a good position? Which firepower points should be taken up at all costs and let the comrades of the suicide squad move over first... It's a pity that the commander of the National Army is a man. If he can save his life, he should keep it..." Just as the commander of the National Army had just left, the officers and soldiers of the New Fourth Army, who were very at peace, began to be less stable...

"Hiss! Hiss!..." The tearing sound of the air told the people below, "Boom! Boom!..." The scorching heat waves caused the people lying on the ground to tilt, flying shrapnel, invisible shock waves... "Comrades, stay calm, don't run around..." Amid the shouts, there were still many people running around, some aimlessly, and some rushing towards the national army's camp...

"Fight!..." With a command, several machine guns on the National Army's position began to fire... The two sides, who were still talking and laughing at each other a moment ago, suddenly turned to each other! Although the New Fourth Army was the attacked side, they also aimed at the main firepower points on the National Army's position early and made corresponding arrangements, so they also began to launch in the rain of bullets...

"Run!..." The suicide squad members were hung with grenades and rushed towards the positions of the National Army... What was that? The upside-down bamboo was so simple!? But the suicide squad's charge was blocked... "Dada, dadada..." The light machine gun's rapid long voice kept ringing, and almost half of the New Fourth Army's suicide squad was killed before a bunch of bamboos. The remaining people climbed above the trench to rush over the plain, but the heavy roar of the Min-24 made all this futile... Li Tianhao's army's defensive ability is so strong that even the most elite Japanese troops would have to run into blood when they encountered it, let alone the New Fourth Army, which lacked experience in positional warfare and attack battles!?

The opportunity for a surprise attack was lost. After the National Army launched an attack on the initiative, the officers and soldiers of the New Fourth Army advanced troops discovered how strong the opponent was. How could the fierce division that could be fed with the flesh and blood of the Japanese army be worthy of fame?

The charges were repeated, and countless flesh and blood bodies were torn apart by bullets, blood flowers bloomed in the air, and the smell of blood and smoke spread rapidly...

"Damn it, I'm really ready to attack me. Fortunately, the headquarters discovered it early..." After receiving the phone, I was still thinking about it. How could I go to attack the New Fourth Army's company commander wiped his forehead when he saw the speed of the New Fourth Army's suicide squad: he was almost going to be taken over by his opponent. If it weren't for the command's phone call... "Brothers, a row of feints attacked from the left wing to attract them to attack... transfer a heavy machine gun to go over and prepare to kill..."

In front of a company of Li Tianhao's troops who had fought countless positions with the Japanese army, more than 500 New Fourth Army members were quickly suppressed and surrounded! With the correction and guidance of the observation post, the cannon landing points in the rear of the National Army became more and more accurate, and the positions of the New Fourth Army were flying everywhere...

Finally stabilized! Li Tianhao received a report from the communication cavalry on the road. The vanguard of the New Fourth Army landed had been completely wiped out. At the same time, it was found that a large number of bamboo platoons of the New Fourth Army were docking... "Order to continue patrol and strictly prevent the New Fourth Army from having other landing sites..." Li Tianhao was not careless. As for the arrangements to kill Chen Yi, he had long been thrown away by him...
