District 9

In the Tonghe area, in the headquarters of the 115th Division of the 9th District and the 1st War Zone, Sha Zhongwei, who had previously spent 70 million in cash to redeem Sha Yong from the Sichuan government, was currently communicating with his superiors on the phone: "Yes, the division directly under the General Political Department, As well as several subordinate regiments, as well as the 1st Special Brigade and the 1st Division of the New First Army, the number of soldiers who have come to us now has exceeded 20,000. Yes, yes, not only skirmishers, regiment level, battalion level Many people from the headquarters also came over, all of whom were organized."

"The effect is not bad." The person next to Commander Shen nodded with satisfaction on the phone call: "But don't hold any tongue. After the troops come in, they will be dispersed immediately and sent back to the camp outside the area."

"This is already being done." After Sha Zhongwei replied, he said with some schadenfreude: "To the north of Yanbei, the mixed brigade and Lincheng troops totaled about 30,000 people, and they had collectively sent troops to Hucha before. They got closer and staggered a certain amount of space, allowing the division directly under the General Political Department and the following regiments to have the convenience to break through. Haha, it is too difficult for 30,000 people to block 50,000 people. And there are too many captured soldiers. It's easy for things to go wrong, and if someone doesn't look right, it can easily lead to mutiny in the troops. I estimate that we can at least have a few thousand more troops."

The other party pondered for a long time, and then asked again: "Have any of the senior commanders who ran away from Yanbei come to your place so far?"

"They are all on the way." Sha Zhongwei responded in a low voice: "Guo Yu has contacted me just now, and my people have picked him up. Secretary-General Zhang is also rushing here with the division headquarters directly under the General Political Department. .”

"Well, this matter also gives Commander Shen a headache." The man on the phone suddenly sighed and said: "The New First Army and the troops directly under the General Political Department are Gu Tai'an's eyesores and thorns in the flesh. Your Sha family's troops are in Tongtong. Heyi was stationed in the garrison. Not only did he get such a huge advantage, he also picked up all the war criminals. Haha... I don’t know how Gu Tai’an will react.”

When Sha Zhongwei heard this, he frowned and began to think anxiously.

…

In the headquarters of the Gu Corps, Qin Yu had just left when a military intelligence officer asked to see Gu Tai'an.

In the lounge, Gu Tai'an was eating, simple rice porridge, steamed buns, and pickles: "Let him in."

After a while, the military intelligence officer walked into the lounge with the information, saluted and shouted: "Hello, Commander!"

"Sit." Gu Tai'an pointed to the stool next to him.

The Gu Corps did not have its own independent military intelligence department before, because this unit must be controlled by the General Administration of the Military Department. Therefore, the First and Second World War Zones only had branches or sub-divisions of the military intelligence department.

After the battle started, the Gu Corps immediately reorganized its military intelligence department, so the people currently holding major positions in this department are almost all core direct descendants of the Gu family.

The Military Intelligence Colonel did not dare to sit next to Gu Tai'an. He only walked over, stood next to him and said, "Tang Qingyuan jumped off the building."

Gu Tai'an paused and nodded slowly: "Inform the propaganda unit of the headquarters, announce the news of his death, and notify his family members to claim the body... Don't make it difficult for these people. When a person dies, everything is cleared."

"Yes." The Military Intelligence Colonel opened the document, lowered his head and continued: "The division directly under the General Political Department, several regiments directly under the General Political Department, and Guo Yu's New First Army, about 20,000 people, have entered Shajia in Tonghe. The garrison area of ​​the troops...and the Sha family's troops have quickly dispersed these defeated troops and secretly transported them back to Fengbei in military supply trucks."

Gu Tai'an picked up a pickle and commented lightly: "The Sha family's troops marched five hundred kilometers overnight just to feed the ninth district chief minister... A beggar passed by the door, and you have to give two rewards." Where is the steel? Give it to them."

The Military Intelligence Colonel paused and continued: "The director of the Police General Administration has publicly expressed his support for our army. His attitude is very correct, and he has proactively revealed some information. Secretary-General Zhang has escaped with the assistance of the division headquarters directly under the General Political Department. Yanbei, and Guo Yu of the New First Army have also disappeared with their headquarters, and it is very likely that they will also escape to the Sha family troops in Tonghe."

"Snapped!"

When Gu Tai'an heard this, he placed the porridge bowl he had just picked up heavily on the table, frowned and cursed: "Damn it, I can't even stop eating."

When the Military Intelligence Colonel heard this, he didn't dare to respond.

Gu Tai'an pondered for a long time and immediately shouted: "Where is Fatty Teng?!"

"...!" The Military Intelligence Colonel looked confused, because he had been busy with things outside and had no idea about Fatty Teng's current situation.

Next to him, a staff officer who was processing documents at his desk immediately stood up and replied: "Commander, wasn't Fatty Teng detained by you?"

"Tell him to come back. Let this idiot do something for me first, and then squat down when he comes back." Gu Tai'an ordered.

Ten minutes later, Fatty Teng was taken out of the solitary room. The chief of staff and others from the headquarters also came after hearing the news.

Gu Tai'an sat at the dining table and frowned and said: "The Ninth District Military Headquarters was a little dissatisfied with the mixed brigade's participation in the war, so I thought that the deserters on the north side of Yanbei could be eaten by the Sha family troops. Otherwise, after the battle is over, they will come back It's not easy for us to find reasons to deal with our little iron alliance... But these bastards are a little bit annoyed that I, Lao Gu, can't read. Not only do they eat soldiers, but they also harbor major war criminals. I can't give him this face. Fatty Teng , you go back to the division headquarters, tell your troops not to enter Yanbei, and drive directly to Tonghe, and on the pretext of arresting war criminals, they can directly enter the Shajia defense area."

Fatty Teng perked up when he heard this: "We should have dealt with them a long time ago. These bastards came to Tonghe in the first place to help Tang Zhang, but we stopped and they publicly supported us."

"Commander, the Eighth District is not yet stable. It is not appropriate to engage in military friction with the Nine District at this time." The Chief of Staff reminded in a low voice: "If they have a tough attitude, we will not be able to stand down...!"

"He knew exactly this about you, that's why he let the Sha family's troops come here to cause trouble." Gu Tai'an stood up with his hands behind his back and said concisely: "The eight districts are already at war, and a week of fighting will still be enough. After a month of fighting, I don’t see much difference. He is playing psychological warfare. If I don’t accompany him, if he crosses the line, he will immediately use the knife. Fatty Teng, please be smarter and lead my troops to the Shajia Defense Area immediately. "

"Yes!" Fatty Teng saluted immediately.

…

after an hour.

Fatty Teng, who had just been in confinement for less than a day, led his division and drove toward the river in a menacing manner.

at the same time.

When Qin Yu returned to the headquarters of the Huncheng Brigade, he no longer had the time to worry about capturing the captured soldiers. He was worried about the situation, so he held an emergency meeting at the brigade headquarters.

"I went to see Commander Gu, and he told me that based on the current situation, it is impossible for Pu Xiazi on the northwest front and the Northeast Theater of the Fifth District to support the Sichuan capital. Then this place will become a After the isolated city, it is very likely to be unstable..." Qin Yu frowned and looked at everyone and said: "Commander Gu guessed that someone in the ninth district may already be contacting the capital, so we must respond immediately , I’m going to send troops back.”

After Li Zhan was silent for a few seconds, he immediately shook his head: "We can't be transferred back. We are being watched by countless people in the Yanbei area. As soon as you move the troops here, the other side will react immediately."
