Chapter 1631 It is said to be Chu Yazi
Things are accomplished through secrets, and failure is revealed through words.
Xiang Chu put away the telegram and asked Qian Fu, "Afu! Have you contacted Lü Zheng's detachment?"
Qian Fu shook his head and said, "No! They sent a telegram three days ago, but we haven't been able to contact them since. Could they have been wiped out by the Japanese and puppet troops?"
Xiang Chu saw Xiaoliu trembling all over, knowing that he was worried about his father, and ordered:
"Xiao Liu! Take Wen Ergou with you, disguise yourself as businessmen, and go to the Weishan Lake area to search for the whereabouts of Lü Zheng's detachment. If you find them, lead them towards us."
Xiao Liu hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said:
"Yes! Ergou! Let's go."
"Okay! Let's go."
Wen Ergou said happily and followed him out of the command post.
Xiang Chu ordered: "The branch committee members will stay for a while, and the others will go out to train the troops."
"Yes!"
Everyone accepted the order in unison.
In addition to several leading officers of the detachment, the branch committee also included Hu Changsheng and Wen Wan.
Xiang Chu read the content of the telegram sent by Xiao Qi and said happily:
"Comrades! The Japanese's important military train is traveling along the Longhai Line and is approaching the border of Cao County. Most of this cargo consists of weapons, ammunition, and food, and there may also be a batch of chemical weapons. We must seize it."
Liu Zhengxiong volunteered: "Commander-in-Chief! I will lead my men to rob the Japanese special train."
Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "No! Base construction is very important now. We have just arrived and there are too many new recruits. The morale of the troops is unstable. We need you to work with Wen Wan, Chang Sheng, Big Cat and others to increase the intensity of propaganda and training."
Liu Zhengxiong smiled bitterly and said, "Okay! To be honest, my propaganda skills are not as good as Instructor Gan's."
Gan Rong said anxiously, "Deputy Commander! How can I catch up with you? You just gave Niu Damao and Wen Ergou a vivid lesson. I am ashamed of myself."
Liu Zhengxiong grinned and said, "How can it be so amazing? Haha!"
Xiang Chu ordered, "Comrades! The Chief Instructor and I will lead the instructor team forward. Chief of Staff! You will lead a thousand new recruits to follow us under the guise of a training exercise. We will rush to Liuhe East Station, southwest of Cao County, overnight, seize the entire train station, then hijack the train and move all the supplies back to the base."
"Yes!"
Gan Rong and Zhang Fei hurriedly accepted the order.
Wen Wan said worriedly, "Commander-in-Chief! Your plan is too difficult to implement. There is at least one Japanese detachment at Liuhe East Railway Station. If we sound the alarm, nearby Japanese squadrons and companies will arrive quickly. Can we hijack the train and move the supplies in a big way?"
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "You are right, it is indeed difficult. But we have no way out, we must seize the special train."
Hu Changsheng smiled and said, "Instructor Wen! Don't worry, the commander-in-chief has unpredictable means, and the plan will definitely succeed."
Wen Wan nodded and raised her hand, saying, "Commander-in-Chief! I apply to participate in this operation."
Xiang Chu pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay! Call five more attractive female comrades, and bring them some gorgeous kimonos. I'm going to use a trick to confuse the Japanese."
"Yes!"
Wen Wan accepted the order decisively.
Liu Zhengxiong asked in confusion, "Instructor Wen! You used to be so opposed to wearing Japanese uniforms, so why are you so happy to wear a kimono now?"
Wen Wan smiled mysteriously and said, "No comment!"
Xiang Chu changed the subject and ordered, "Chief Instructor! Go inform the instructor team. Everyone should bring their equipment and follow me in half an hour."
"Yes!"
Gan Rong hurriedly accepted the order.
Xiang Chu continued his instructions: "Chief of Staff! Take a thousand new recruits, their weapons, and transportation. Leave in an hour under the pretext of training and collecting grain from wealthy families.
Remember! If you want to go left, you must turn right first, and vice versa! "
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Commander-in-Chief! Your marching method is great."
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "It's just a little detour, go quickly!"
"Yes!"
Zhang Fei hurriedly accepted the order.
Xiang Chu ordered, "Old Liu! Changsheng! Don't let up on Li Deshui and Ding Yizhou. Continue to care for them and do ideological work on them."
"Yes!"
Liu Zhengxiong and Hu Changsheng nodded in unison.
Xiang Chu stood up and said with a wry smile, "If we seize the Japanese special train, we will definitely become a thorn in the eyes of the Japanese. You two must win over the people, otherwise the new recruits will scatter once you fight them."
Liu Zhengxiong shouted, "I know! Let's go!"
"Wait for our good news!"
Xiang Chu smiled and turned to walk out of the command post.
Liu Zhengxiong and Hu Changsheng also followed out.
At the door, a new recruit of about fifteen or sixteen years old was practicing swordplay with a rusty broadsword in his hand. His movements were very standard and it was obvious that he was a trained swordsman.
Xiang Chu asked in confusion, "Little brother! Your swordsmanship is superb, but your sword is too old. Why don't you sharpen it?"
Seeing it was him, the recruit quickly put away his sword and saluted, saying loudly, "Commander-in-Chief! This sword is of poor quality. It breaks as soon as it is cut. And no matter how sharp the sword is, it can't beat a gun. It seems useless."
Liu Zhengxiong scolded, "You rascal! Guns are powerful, but if you run out of bullets, you'll have to resort to knives. Can you say knives are useless?"
The recruit was stunned and nodded, "Deputy Commander! You are right."
Xiang Chu took the broadsword and shook his head, saying, "The quality of the iron used in this broadsword is indeed too poor. We can dismantle some of the Japanese steel rails and make steel for it later."
The new soldier said happily: "Commander-in-chief! My father and uncle can forge broadswords. If we have good steel, we can definitely forge a good broadsword."
Xiang Chu patted him on the shoulder and praised him, "Good brother! You reminded me that we should open an arsenal and make our own weapons and ammunition. Old Liu! You will plan the arsenal and invite your father, uncle and other craftsmen to work in the arsenal."
"Yes!"
Liu Zhengxiong hurriedly accepted the order.
At this time, Qian Fu brought Xiang Chu's horse and reported:
"Commander-in-Chief! The instructor team has assembled at the mountain stronghold gate."
"Okay! Let's go."
Xiang Chu nodded, mounted his horse, and galloped towards the gate of the mountain stronghold.
East of Weishan Lake, south of Zaozhuang Station on the Jinpu Line.
Lü Zheng led nearly a hundred Eighth Route Army soldiers to hide in the forest east of the railway, preparing to cross the railway to the west and escape the Japanese blockade.
The Japanese soldiers sat on the railway patrol car and patrolled the railway line.
Chief of Staff Sun Ren suggested: "Captain! Let's wait until dark."
Lu Zheng said worriedly, "Chief of Staff! If we don't move westward, we'll be caught up by the damned puppet army and our entire army will be wiped out."
Sun Ren shook his head and said, "The people chasing us are probably not puppet troops, but a Nationalist army unit. The devils won't attack this Nationalist army."
Lu Zheng said bitterly, "How despicable! The Nationalist army actually colluded with the devils to encircle and suppress us. Oh! If the radio battery ran out, I could still ask where the task force was."
Sun Ren asked, "Captain! Who is the commander of the task force? Why did headquarters ask us to merge with them?"
Lu Zheng whispered, "It is said to be Chu!"
"what?!"
Sun Ren was so shocked that he was stunned. After a while, he said,
"No! Isn't Chu the political commissar of the Langya Column and the commander of the Wuxingshan Column? How did he come to Luxi to be a detachment commander?"
Lu Zheng laughed heartily and said, "He is a brick of the revolution, he can be moved wherever he is needed. Haha!"
