553. Chapter 553: Competing for favor


Before dawn, news also came from Lin Fan's side.With the help of the captain of the Devil Wing, their cavalry also slaughtered the devils defending the city, and not a single soldier was killed or wounded.In just one day and one night, he first recovered Xuzhou, then annihilated the 273rd Division and two puppet divisions, and then recovered Linyi and Jining.All of this was progressing at such a rapid pace that even the Germans' lightning tactics would have been no more than that.The bottom line is that it's all done in secret.The Japanese had no idea that their three cities had disappeared overnight, and that the two members of the Yamazaki family, whom they trusted the most, had betrayed and formed loyal lackeys under the Takato Seat.At ten o'clock in the morning, Gao Dong secretly sent troops to find the martial arts team active in this generation.Their tasks will be very heavy in the future, and there will be no extra manpower to defend these two cities.Only by contacting the armed engineering team, arming them, and using Japanese weapons to recruit more recruits, can Gao Dong's worries be solved.At the same time, he secretly sent a telegram to the Suzhou-Anhui Military Region, asking them to immediately send troops to Linyi and Jining to take over these two cities.After all, the New Fourth Army is a regular army, and it has more experience in defending the city than the military engineering team.Moreover, they will also be responsible for the follow-up logistics and supply of the independent army, which is the most important thing, and Gao Dong will not allow any delay.With everything arranged, Gao Dong was not in a hurry to lead the troops on the next expedition.Even if it's a cavalryman, it's a human being, and it needs to rest.After a long day and a night of long-distance travel and fierce battles, both men and horses were exhausted to the extreme, Gao Dong wanted to let the troops rest for a day, and he would definitely not take a tired division to fight.At noon, two teams of martial arts marched into the city of Linyi, numbering almost 500 people.At the same time, more than 500 martial arts team members from the direction of Jining entered the city and met with Lin Fan and others.Gao Dong personally met with the captain of the martial arts team who came to Linyi City, and the city was about to be handed over to them temporarily, and Gao Dong was not at ease if he didn't explain it clearly."

Deputy Commander" martial arts captain Wang Dashan saluted Gao Dong excitedly, he knew Gao Dong's identity before he came.Being able to meet the legendary heroes made every martial arts team member excited."

Okay, okay, don't be too polite.We are a revolutionary team, and there are not so many etiquettes," Gao Dong smiled and waved his hand at Wang Dashan."

How many of you are here this time" Gao Dong put away his smile, his face full of seriousness."

Report to the deputy commander, we are all active in the martial arts team near Linyi.There are 563 people here this time, and there are many more that we can't notify for the time being.They are all active in the mountains, and it may take several days to find them," Wang said."

Very well, you immediately send someone to look for it.As long as it is the martial arts team near Linyi City, let them all enter the city, assist you in defending here, and wait until our large army comes, and then hand over the city defense to them. ”Gao Dong patted Wang Dashan on the shoulder: "Is there a problem?"

"No problem, I guarantee the completion of the task" Wang Dashan said confidently."

Very good, there is one more thing that you need to do" Gao Dong looked at Wang Dashan and smiled."

Deputy commander, if you have anything, just say it, our martial arts team in Shandong was created by your old man, and none of our martial arts team is your soldier.As long as you give an order, go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire, we won't blink our eyes," Wang Dashan patted his chest and said firmly."

I need to contact all the martial arts teams in Shandong and ask them to assemble around the cities where they are active.After I lead the troops to capture the city, I immediately need them to help me hold the city temporarily, can I do this?"

asked Gao Dong."

I thought it was a big deal, the deputy commander, this matter was wrapped up in me, and within two days of keeping, the entire Shandong military engineering team would know about it," Wang Dashan laughed.Gao Dong added a little favor to this straightforward man, and instructed: "Remember to keep it secret" "My Wang Dashan's mouth has always been tight, deputy commander, if the news leaks out of me, you don't need to come to me, I will chop up the guy who eats by myself." ”The two laughed a few more words, and Gao Dong ordered his subordinates to take Wang Dashan and other martial arts team members to receive the devil's weapon warehouse first.There was enough weapons and ammunition for two wings of devils.Before leaving, Gao Dong asked Wang Dashan to immediately recruit new soldiers in the local area, defend the local area with locals, establish a garrison force, and wait for the arrival of the New Fourth Army.Anyway, there are many weapons left by the devils, and they can be armed as they want.During the period of his absence, the military engineering team and the newly recruited soldiers were the most important force in defending Linyi.After doing this, Gao Dong waited for it to get dark.The Suzhou-Anhui Military Region has already sent a telegram saying that one regiment from the direction of Xuzhou is already advancing towards Linyi and Jining.They have already made peace with Fang Kui's division, and they should be able to arrive tomorrow."

Little devil, you can't even dream of it.The two cities that you have been heavily defended will be taken away from under your noses by me," Gao Dong sneered, and he didn't know what kind of expression Tada Jun in Nanjing would have when he knew about this."

High sir, high sir."

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the house.Gao Dong turned his head, only to see the two cousins Yuichi Yamazaki and Yukio Yamazaki glaring at each other angrily, pulling each other's clothes, almost fighting, and pushing into the house.A smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Gao Dong's mouth, leaning back in his chair, watching the battle between the two cousins with playfulness."

You let me go, I came to find the senior first, and I have to have a first-come-first-come-first-served person, I see that you have been a man for nothing for so many years" Yuichi Yamazaki pushed his cousin hard, but Yukio Yamazaki grabbed Yuichi Yamazaki's collar and didn't let go."

I'm still your cousin, have you ever respected what I told me now that the most unreasonable person is you" Yukio Yamazaki scolded angrily, perhaps thinking that he had the fate he has now, all of which were victimized by this cousin, grabbing Yuichi Yamazaki's hand harder, Gao Dong could hear the sound of his clothes being torn.The two of them are pushing and shoving me in the house, and they are both more than a hundred years old, and they are still so angry, Gao Dong couldn't help but snicker in his heart."

Okay, okay, what's going on" Gao Dong coughed, pretending to look at the two of them impatiently.Yuichi Yamazaki hurriedly turned his head, but just as he wanted to speak, his face was already covered by his cousin's slap, and he turned to the side forcefully."

Senior Officer, it's like this, I'll just do it tonight, don't bother Yuichi Yamazaki, I'll just come" Yukio Yamazaki pinned Yuichi Yamazaki's face hard, and said to Gao Dong with a flattering smile on his face."

Oh, let's talk about it" Gao Dong pretended to be attracted, and coughed vigorously: "Don't fight, and pay attention to your physique, you were also a heavyweight officer at the general level, so you won't be so uneducated" Hearing Gao Dong's words, Yuichi Yamazaki and Yukio Yamazaki hurriedly separated.But the two glared at each other like fighting cocks, and there was a raging anger in each other's eyes when they looked at each other, as if they were some kind of enemies who did not share the sky.Gao Dong was funny in his heart, but this is what he wanted.Both of them were useful, and he had already figured out how to arrange them.It is to keep these two people hostile, so that he can easily manipulate Yamazaki Yukio Haha laughed: "Compared to the senior officer, I already know that the whole of Shandong is garrisoned by our Yamazaki family.Although we are nominally subordinates of the North China Dispatch Army, even Commander Tada Jun has to take care of our family's wishes" "There are two cities around Linyi, namely Rizhao and Weifang, and the garrison chiefs of these two cities are all members of the same clan as I am very good, and they also once supported me as the patriarch of the family.Therefore, this operation, I went more appropriately than Yuichi Yamazaki.Because, he is the most unpopular person in the family. ”After speaking, Yukio Yamazaki looked at Yuichi Yamazaki defiantly.Yamazaki Yuichi said unconvinced: "Although I don't have a good relationship with them, I can use the patriarch who sits in Jinan, and is also our supreme commander, General Yamazaki Fan."

Tell him that we have annihilated half of the Independence Army, but the Independence Army is too stubborn to escape from our encirclement and is fleeing towards Rizhao, and ask Rizhao to send the main force to encircle and annihilate us with our troops.They won't disobey Yamazaki Fan's orders, and they can still be easily exterminated when the time comes" Yamazaki Yukio snorted coldly: "I don't need to ask Uncle Yamazaki Fan at all, I just need to dress up the subordinates of the high commander as defeated soldiers, saying that we escaped after being defeated by the independent army, and when the time comes, not only Rizhao, but even Weifang, we can blend in."

You don't think about who has a better plan" "you." ”Isamu Yamazaki angrily pointed at Yukio Yamazaki, and he was speechless for a while.It is undeniable that Yukio Yamazaki's strategy does have great appeal.The two invariably turned their attention to Gao Dong, because the final decision-maker was Gao Dong.Gao Dong actually laughed in his heart, these two newly acquired doglegs really tried their best to compete for favor in front of him, and they came up with any bad ideas to harm their own people.As Japanese traitors, they are really superb, and I am afraid that they will not be able to find such a dedicated dog leg as them in the future."

Very good, both of you have a good plan" Gao Dong looked very embarrassed: "But if you want to use your plan alone, my strength is limited, and I can't focus on one point."

And it's easy to leak secrets, so that the rest of the Japanese troops know our intentions in advance, so" Gao Dong smiled: "The opinions of the two of you are adopted at the same time, according to your plan, attack Rizhao and Weifang at the same time" Gao Dong finally added a sentence that could make the blood of the two boil: "If which side captures the city first, then I will let him be the commander of a division, and he can continue to lead the troops to fight with me This is an opportunity, you must seize it" Gao Dong's words were finished, It was like a bombshell exploding between the two.Yuichi Yamazaki and Yukio Yamazaki both had fire in their eyes and looked at each other deadly.Without any more words, he turned around and left, to seize the last chance that Gao Dong gave them."

Go, go, the harder you fight, the more relieved I am" Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Gao Dong laughed:
