The fat man hurriedly reported to Zhou Wu by radio in person: "Brigade seat, the 18th Division has been fooled, and its large army is rushing in the direction of Huai'an City" Zhou Wu, who received the telegram from the fat man, couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, hurriedly jumped up, and shouted loudly to the brothers in the headquarters: "The enemy has finally taken the bait, order all troops to immediately prepare for battle, tell the brothers, wait for the next fight, don't have any worries, give me a hard beating, let them dare to break into our base area, and ask them to go and have no return."
Zhou Wu's attack order, all the teams concentrated on the edge of Hongze Lake in the Jiangbei base area began to move, for a while people shouted horses and neighed, a row of tense and busy scenes, at this moment, the sentry outside the door ran in to report to Zhou Wu: "Brigade seat, the commander of the health company Shen Company is here with doctors and nurses."
As soon as Zhou Wu heard that Ding Ning's widow Shen Lina had arrived here with the doctors and nurses of the health company, he hurriedly said to the sentry: "Why don't they stay in the rear, what are they doing here?"
It just so happened that Zhou Wu's words were heard by Shen Lina, who broke in, and she came in and reported to Zhou Wu: "Report to the brigade, the independent brigade health company has come to participate in the battle."
"Nonsense, I didn't order the Southern Health Company to come to Hubin Town to participate in the battle, hurry back, you can still treat the wounded and sick in the rear, why do you have to come to the forefront" Zhou Wu was very unhappy and said to Shen Lina.
"Brigade seat, our health company is also a team under the independent brigade, why can't we come to the front to participate in the battle" Shen Lina looked at Zhou Wu's angry and unhappy face, and said to him without fear.
Zhou Wu was speechless for a while, and couldn't think of any words to deal with this Shen Lina in front of him, for the sake of Ding Ning's face, Zhou Wuqiang endured it and didn't have a seizure, so he had to nod and let Shen Lina take the sisters from the health company to the front line to treat the wounded brothers.
At this moment, the fat man at the forefront suddenly sent a telegram: "Brigade seat, those Kuomintang recalcitrant troops who attacked suddenly retreated to the back, is there something big happened, we have carefully checked here, and we have not found any flaws, could it be that the recalcitrant army on the opposite side has discovered our attempt?"
Zhou Wu was furious when he heard that the stubborn army team that had been lured in suddenly retreated, and hurriedly ordered the fat man to carefully find out what the situation was.
Zhou Wu hurriedly said to the staff officer: "Hurry up" "According to the latest news, at 10 o'clock this morning, the Japanese emperor issued an edict of unconditional surrender, and the Japanese army surrendered to us All the materials and equipment on the territory around the base area" The communications staff officer who read the telegram could not contain his excitement, and his voice trembled obviously.
"Ah, the little devil surrendered to us" Zhou Wu couldn't react for a while, the little devil had already shown signs at sunset, and it was not a matter of a day or two, but Zhou Wu didn't expect this victory to come so quickly, especially when they were preparing to fight with the attacking Kuomintang recalcitrant army, it seemed to suddenly fall from the sky, too sudden, so that people were not prepared at all.
Zhou Wu immediately understood, why the Kuomintang recalcitrant troops on the opposite side suddenly retreated, it turned out that they were going to rob the big cities after the surrender of the little devils, although Huai'an City is a big city in the Jiangbei area, but compared to Yangzhou, Taizhou and Nanjing in the south of the Yangtze River, it is not a grade at all.
Since the recalcitrant Kuomintang army had retreated, Zhou Wu immediately ordered the troops of the Jiangbei New Fourth Army under his command to stop the attack, and called the fat man and Lao Chen, the main cadres, to discuss urgent military affairs Soon, the command post of Binhu Town was crowded with the officers of the Jiangbei New Fourth Army, Zhou Wu General Little Devil had announced the surrender at noon today and told everyone the news, the crowd suddenly burst into cheers, the brothers hugged each other, and a few even shed tears on the spot, Zhou Wu saw this scene, his eyes couldn't help but be hot, almost fell tears, and when he saw that the brothers below looked at him, he hurriedly turned his back, wiped it off with his hands, turned around and said to the brothers: "Eight years, eight years, We finally got the little Jap out."
Shen Lina, who came after receiving the news, was also in tears at the moment, the feelings of the female comrades were more sensitive, and after a while, Shen Lina cried loudly, shouting Ding Ning's name in her mouth: "Ding Ning, the little devil was driven away by us, we won, but it's a pity that you can't see this scene" Several nurses and sisters from the health company immediately stepped forward to support the crying Shen Lina and persuaded: "Company commander, it's a good thing that the little devil has surrendered, we have won, and we can live a peaceful life in the future."
Binhu Town immediately became a sea of jubilation, the local people learned the news, but also came out to beat gongs and drums to celebrate, the tension of the previous war was swept away, the people here have the joy of victory on their faces, a full eight years, finally ushered in a long-lost victory, invaded our land, killed my compatriots, the Japanese devils who lewd my sisters finally surrendered to us unconditionally, how many people, how many anti-Japanese warriors sacrificed on the battlefield of resistance against Japan, and now they can survive, see this scene with their own eyes, can not make people emotional, Tears welled up in your eyes The jubilation of victory lasted for several hours, Zhou Wu waved his hand, motioned to the brothers to stop first, and said to everyone: "Comrades, brothers, let's stop and celebrate first, there is a very important matter to discuss with you, and after the meeting, everyone will cheer and celebrate with emotion."
There was another burst of cheers below, and Zhou Wu said to his brothers: "Brothers, after eight years of arduous and outstanding resistance against Japan, we finally defeated the Japanese devils, and the division headquarters ordered us to immediately begin to accept the materials left by the Japanese puppet army in the Jiangbei area, and strive to liberate several large cities, so that the friction between us and the Kuomintang army is inevitable, and they are planning to put our Jiangbei New Fourth Army to death, and our Jiangbei New Fourth Army will face more difficulties in the future.
This time, the opponents are not the Japanese devils, but those Kuomintang troops, so we must strike early and strive for a situation that is favorable to us.
As soon as the fat man heard this, he immediately stood up and opened his mouth and said: "Brigade seat, this still needs to be discussed in a meeting, this area of Jiangbei is almost our territory now, and that Huai'an City has fallen into the hands of our New Fourth Army, but Yangzhou and Taizhou, Nanjing We have not captured it, depending on the meaning of the division commander, whether we are going to face south to accept Yangzhou and Taizhou City next, anyway, we have to take over, according to what terms of their surrender, the Japanese little devil must surrender to the local garrison on the spot, Our New Fourth Army is the local garrison, is it possible that those little devils want to bypass our Jiangbei base area and go to Suxian to surrender to the Kuomintang Sixth War Zone."
"Lao Liu just raised this question well, now there is indeed such a problem, this is also the main purpose of the 18th Division of Qian just now suddenly stopped the onslaught and evacuated towards the west bank of the canal, they must have received an order from the Sixth War Zone, otherwise it is impossible to evacuate suddenly in this imminent situation, they must be going to accept the surrender of the Japanese devils in Nanjing and Shanghai, in this way, they will not look down on Huai'an City, a city in the north of the Yangtze River, my judgment is this, If you have any other guesses, you can tell.
Zhou Wu agreed with the fat man's guess and hurriedly said to the brothers.
"The brigade is right, I think it should be like this, otherwise with the character of Qian someone, he would not let go of this piece of fat of our Jiangbei New Fourth Army halfway, so let's not guess the purpose of why the recalcitrant army evacuated now, the little devil has just surrendered, and it is a question of who they surrender to, I suggest, we form a plan here, report to the division commander and implement it immediately after they agree, so that we can accept the surrender of the Japanese army in the Jiangbei area before the Kuomintang army."
The new chief of staff, Elder Xu, added.
Zhou Wu looked at the political commissar Lao Niu, Lao Niu also nodded, Zhou Wu ordered: "In this way, Lao Chen, your first brigade is now in Huai'an, then I don't think you should move, just defend in Huai'an City, and draw out a part of the team to the southeast to accept the surrender of the devils in the direction of Taizhou, and now the situation is much more cheerful all of a sudden, in this way, our Jiangbei New Fourth Army team is estimated to be insufficient, and many cities in Jiangbei need troops to garrison, I think so, you depend on the situation, use the original police and puppet army forces in those cities, Reorganize them and let them manage those cities in the name of the New Fourth Army, the New Fourth Army in Jiangbei is still stationed on the periphery, so that they don't have to disturb the people in those cities, and they can move at any time to maintain local law and order, Lao Chen, what do you think" Zhou Wu looked at Lao Chen and said to him.
"Okay, this method is good, our Jiangbei New Fourth Army has stayed in the Jiangbei base area for a long time, and has no experience in garrisoning in big cities, I think it is better to stay and garrison on the periphery of the city, it is convenient to move freely, and it does not disturb the people, killing two birds with one stone, I support this."
Lao Chen expressed his support for Zhou Wu's approach.
The fat man was not happy when he heard this, it turned out that he would accept the surrender of the little devil in the periphery of those cities, so he immediately stood up again and said to Zhou Wu: "Brigade seat, our New Fourth Army can also enter the city, why do we have to ask those puppet military policemen to help us maintain order, we can do it with a company here, don't bother others to do it."
Zhou Wu shook his head and said to the fat man: "Lao Liu, the situation is not as simple as you imagined, let's do things according to the orders of our superiors." ” t1706231537:
