Huang Shuisheng couldn't call the shots, so he asked Ding Ning: "Chief of Staff, what should these puppet soldiers do If we release them now, if they report the matter here to the little devils, then our whereabouts will not be exposed."
Ding Ning disagreed: "It's okay, these puppet army brothers also hate these little devils, you didn't see the scene where they stabbed the devils just now, let them go, what we say must be fulfilled, otherwise we are not as virtuous as the little devils, where can we still get the support of the people" Huang Shuisheng nodded hurriedly, and shouted to the puppet army brothers who were waiting for him: "Puppet army brothers, from now on, you will be free, if you want to go home, go home quickly, and if you want to join your own New Fourth Army, go directly south to find our independent brigade, we warmly welcome you to join."
Hearing Huang Shuisheng's announcement, many of the puppet army brothers below broke out into a burst of heartfelt cheers, and the puppet army company commander immediately said: "This commander of the New Fourth Army, you are enough to admire the brothers, if you believe me and return those guns and ammunition to us, we will continue to stay here to stand guard for you, and when you finish your work, we are disbanding How are the little devils here are all dead anyway, we also participated in the operation of killing devils just now, How to deal with the devil and the investigation from above, we know in our hearts. ” As soon as Ding Ning heard the words of the puppet army company commander, he felt that it made sense, these puppet army brothers hated the little devils no less than their New Fourth Army soldiers, which Lao Ding believed very much, from the situation just now when those puppet army brothers took the 38 big cover and stabbed the little devils, it can be seen that these hundred or so puppet army brothers are actually impossible to take refuge in the devils anymore, and the punishment of the little devils for the puppet army's mistakes is extremely harsh, if Miyamoto and they know that the devil squad in this stronghold was killed by these puppet army and independent brigades, The devil first took these puppet soldiers to the knife, and never asked for any reason, so Ding Ning was willing to believe the statement of the puppet army company commander just now, whispered a few words to Huang Shuisheng, and immediately nodded to the puppet army company commander and said: "This brother, you can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, we warmly welcome, if you want to help us drag the little devil in this stronghold, we are also very grateful, but there are many devils around, you only have one company of brothers, I think you continue to stay here, there is more than luck, We don't want to cause so many innocent brothers to die under the devil's knife because of our mistakes, I advise you to stay here until dawn at the latest, and disperse as soon as possible, and we will also set off immediately, forgive those devils who can't catch up with us, if you want to really help us, go directly to the southern independent brigade station to find us, we warmly welcome all of them."
Ding Ning is afraid that these puppet soldiers are small in number and can't resist the cruel revenge of the devils, for the lives of these innocent puppet army brothers, he thinks it's better to let them disperse first, and when these puppet army brothers all run to our base and guerrilla area, even if the little devils know the truth here, then they can only scold the head of the puppet army, and lose their temper, and they really don't dare to go out of Huai'an City to find these puppet soldiers to retaliate, Zhou Wu and they are waiting for all the Miyamoto boys to go out at this time.
As soon as the company commander of the puppet army heard that these New Fourth Army still wanted them to disperse, he was moved in his heart, and immediately said that he would take his brothers to stay in the stronghold until it was dark tomorrow, and after dark, everyone took advantage of the night to disperse, and dug a pit and buried all the things that the brothers of the New Fourth Army could not take away, and they could come back to pick it up when they had the opportunity in the future, so that it could be regarded as a little effort for the brothers of the action team.
Ding Ning and Huang Shuisheng put on the devil's military uniform that they were about to pull off, and brought a few machine guns in the bunker by the way, Huang Shuisheng really couldn't bear the two Type 95 heavy machine guns of the devil, so after thinking about it, he decided to call a few brothers and let them carry it hard.
So a team of rescue teams dressed as little devils immediately carried heavy machine guns and small steel cannons to the northeast and continued to march, at this time it was already three or four o'clock in the morning, the heavy rain had stopped, and the air after the rain emitted a burst of fragrance, Ding Ning and Huang Shuisheng took their brothers to walk quickly on the road to Yancheng, and then what kind of enemy they would encounter along the way, no one knew at this time It is said that Zhou Wu followed the fat man's group and the brothers of the spy group hurriedly rushed to Huai'an City in the north, and before he took a few steps, it rained heavily in the sky, and the rain drenched the brothers miserably, everyone was wet by the heavy rain, just like a chicken in soup, the fat man asked Zhou Wu's opinion, and asked if he would first find a place to rest from the rain next to him before leaving, Zhou Wu disagreed, and said to the fat man: "At this time, the rain is good for our actions, think about it, That Miyamoto in Huai'an City couldn't have expected that we would brave the heavy rain to act, and we were touching his lair, and after a heavy rain, the light and dark sentry checks of the little devils on the way would not be so strict, so wouldn't it be good for us to march?"
The fat man hurriedly nodded yes, and loudly ordered the troops to continue to speed up the march, and the Niu political commissar also followed Zhou Wu to follow the fat man, and when he saw that the mood of the soldiers was not very high, he took a group of comrades engaged in political work to encourage everyone, shouting slogans, and singing revolutionary songs.
Along the way, the fat man almost did not encounter any situation, so he went all the way north, and arrived in the early morning to the south of Huai'an City, where the last battle with the Miyamoto brigade was in Hudong Town, at this time the rain had stopped, according to the report of the brothers who reconnoitred in front, there was a devil check intersection five or six miles ahead, and a squadron of little devils and a regiment of Wang puppet army set up a stronghold there and cut off the passage.
Zhou Wu looked at his watch at this time, and found that the time was almost four o'clock in the morning, the team had been marching for five hours in a row, and the brothers were already tired enough.
As soon as the team stopped, the fat man took out the military map he was carrying and said to Zhou Wu: "Brigade seat, the place in front is the only way for us to go to Huai'an, the west is Hongze Lake, we can't pass without a large number of ships, the captured devil gunboat last time ran out of fuel and is still lying in the base area, Lao Xu said that it can be dismantled to make bullets, and those cannons on the ship can be dismantled to make mountain artillery, but I heard Lao Xu say that it takes a lot of work to do those things well, and now I can't count on it, The east side is full of the territory of the little devils and the puppet army, we will definitely encounter the devils and the puppet army in the past, or now we will take advantage of the fact that those little devils are not prepared, quickly rush over, and catch them by surprise."
Zhou Wu looked at the map and was silent, he was thinking that if there was a fire with the little devil here, the Miyamoto Brigade in Huai'an City would definitely have an operation, Ding Ning They don't know where they have arrived now, and they haven't been contacted for so long, so there is no rush here, first contact Huang Shuisheng and Ding Ning and their action team.
Zhou Wu immediately ordered his subordinate communication soldiers to turn on the radio station and contact Ding Ning and them, and soon the communication soldiers immediately contacted Ding Ning, Ding Ning told Zhou Wu on the radio that they have now solved a small devil stronghold on the way, eliminated a devil team, captured a company of puppet army, and now disguised as a devil swaggering towards the direction of Yancheng in the northeast, in the devil stronghold, Ding Ning They stumbled upon several devils' side three-wheeled motorcycles and two large trucks, Now the brothers are taking turns to ride those trucks towards Yancheng, the speed is much faster, it is estimated that if it goes well, they should be able to reach Yancheng at ten o'clock in the morning.
As soon as Zhou Wu heard that Ding Ning had seized the little devil's truck and motorcycle, now the marching speed was significantly faster, and he could rush to Yancheng at ten o'clock in the morning, and hurriedly looked at his watch, it was already half past four in the morning, and there were still four or five hours before Yancheng was about to start, and he was still more than thirty kilometers away from Huai'an City, so he could only bypass these little devils in front of him, and quickly rushed to Huai'an City before ten o'clock in the morning and immediately launched an attack, otherwise he would not be able to prevent the news of Yancheng's attack.
The Miyamoto Brigade went to the northeast to reinforce Yancheng, and Zhou Wu and the others had to set up a blocking team on the traffic artery from the northeast of Huai'an to Yancheng to block the Miyamoto Brigade in case they went out of the city to rescue the Miyamoto Brigade in the direction of Yancheng, so it seemed that a decision had to be made.
Zhou Wu immediately called back Ding Ning: "Ding Ning, you should go towards Yancheng as planned, and the sooner the better, after you succeed, you will quickly retreat, and when you retreat, you can contact the military commanders in Yancheng in advance, so that you can rescue the captured Americans faster and complete the task early."
After Ding Ning accepted Zhou Wu's instructions, he quickly turned off the radio as agreed, and Zhou Wu hurriedly said to the fat man: "Lao Liu, the chief of staff, their side is moving very smoothly, they eliminated a devil squad on the way, and also captured a company of puppet soldiers, and the brothers are rushing to Yancheng with the captured truck, and we can rush to Yancheng at about ten o'clock tomorrow morning, and now we only have more than four hours to rush to Huai'an City, we must bypass those little devils in front of us and go straight to Huai'an."
When the fat man heard this, he said to Zhou Wu: "Brigade seat, I think it is impossible to bypass these little devils in front, the east is full of the territory of the devil puppet army, there are devils everywhere, how can we go around the long distance, it takes more time, I think it is better to take the opportunity to fight over with this time, Huai'an City is more than 30 kilometers away from here, if we are here earlier than the chief of staff, they will first exchange fire with the little devils, then maybe the main force of the devils will come to us, This will also relieve the pressure on the chief of staff and their action team. ” t1706231537:
