The blood of the Anti-Japanese War stained the mountains and rivers

"What else can Battalion Commander Xie teach?" The gray-robed middle-aged man asked solemnly, looking like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.

The Fourth Battalion Commander Xie Zhengxiang couldn't sit still anymore, he stood up and said, "Since you are here, sir, why bother to leave, there are some things we can still discuss."

Seeing that the Fourth Battalion Commander Xie Zhengxiang was subdued in his words, the middle-aged man in the gray robe had a cunning flash of success in his eyes, he went back to his seat and sat down again, and said, "I don't know how to thank the Battalion Commander for thinking about what I said last time." how's it going?"

Seeing the other party's straightforward question, Xie Zhengxiang also knew that there was no room for maneuver.

He bowed his head and thought for a while and replied: "I have no objection to leaning on Nanjing, but I can't vote for devils, and I can't be a traitor."

"This is natural. As long as you agree to leave the northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps, your unit will be reorganized into the appeasement army, under the command of the commander-in-chief of the appeasement of Jiangsu, Anhui and Zhejiang, Ren Aidao."

Hearing that he was not directly commanded by the devils, the Fourth Battalion Commander Xie Zhengxiang nodded; "The things we talked about earlier..."

The middle-aged man in the gray robe said with a smile: "All kinds of rewards will naturally be fulfilled. When you arrive in the appeasement army, you can immediately be promoted to colonel commander. As long as you have meritorious service in combat, this is just the starting point."

"What about my brothers, if it's not good, I'm afraid I won't be able to drag many people over. After all, I haven't been in the camp for long."

"You don't need to worry about Battalion Commander Xie. Those who are willing to go to the Appeasement Army will be promoted to one rank. Those who have made meritorious service will be promoted to two ranks, and their salary will be doubled."

"However, I want to remind Battalion Commander Xie that there is not much time left for you to consider. Once the Japanese army arrives in Huaiyin and launches a general attack, if you have not left the Subei Guerrilla Corps, the Japanese army will attack you equally." The middle-aged man in the robe added a sentence.

"Of course, Battalion Commander Xie can also choose to live and die with Huaiyin. After all, everyone's choice is different."

Under the coercion and lure of the gray-robed middle-aged man, the Fourth Battalion Commander Xie Zhengxiang finally gritted his teeth and agreed after not thinking about it.

After all, the situation is deteriorating now. If you stay in the northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps, you may only have a dead end. If you go to the past now, you can not only get a lot of money, but also get promoted. You can tell which is good and which is bad.

"I also ask Battalion Commander Xie not to hesitate. The main force of the Japanese army will arrive in no time. If it is late, there will be no chance." The gray-robed middle-aged man reminded.

"Please wait a moment, sir. I'll call the company platoon leaders over." Xie Zhengxiang nodded knowing that he had no choice.

Soon, the company platoon leaders of the Fourth Battalion were notified and rushed to the headquarters of the Fourth Battalion for a meeting.

"Do we have a mission?"

"I do not know."

These company platoon leaders were hastily summoned to the battalion headquarters, thinking that they were going to fight the little devils.

The deputy battalion commander of the fourth battalion, Dao Zi, also hurried back to the battalion headquarters from the position outside the city, but when he saw the battalion headquarters which was more heavily guarded than usual, he couldn't help frowning.

"What's the matter today, so many people are guarding here." The deputy battalion commander Dao Zi asked the platoon leader of the battalion guard platoon.

"Deputy battalion, isn't the devil calling here? The battalion commander ordered us to step up our guard." The platoon leader of the guard platoon said with a smile on his face.

After thinking about it, the deputy battalion commander Daozi didn't think there was anything wrong with the order, but when he wanted to go further, he was stopped.

"Vice battalion, your gun." A brother in the guard platoon said, "The battalion commander ordered that no one in the meeting be allowed to bring a gun in."

"What kind of rules are these?" The deputy battalion commander Daozi knew something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"The battalion commander just ordered." The guard looked serious.

The first thousand and 190 chapters of the nineteenth chapter of the Hongmen Banquet

"What do you mean, you have to disarm on our territory?"

Seeing this battalion commander's confidant guard, the deputy battalion commander's face was full of displeasure.

"Deputy battalion, now is an extraordinary time. The battalion commander is doing this for the good of the big guys, to prevent spies from getting in. If someone secretly joins the devils and makes trouble at the meeting, wouldn't it be a heavy loss..." The guard explained .

"Then what if I don't hand it in?" The deputy battalion commander Dao Zi stared at the guard and asked coldly.

As the saying goes, a gun is the second life of a soldier, but he must never leave his body. Now that he has to surrender his gun, the deputy battalion commander Daozi is naturally unwilling.

"You see, everyone has paid, and you can't break the rules, right? If the battalion commander finds out, everyone will not look good." The guard seemed respectful, but his tone was faintly threatening.

Just when the knife was about to get angry, the company commander hurried over to smooth things over: "Battlement deputy, why should we get angry with a small soldier, let's hand it over, it's just a formality."

The devils had already fought outside the city. At this juncture, the deputy battalion commander Daozi also knew that it was not the time to have a conflict with the battalion commander Xie Zhengxiang.

Although he was panicked, he still pulled out his pistol from the holster, slapped it on the table where the weapons were piled up, and entered the room angrily.

Xie Zhengxiang, the commander of the Fourth Battalion, was transferred from the theater headquarters, while the deputy battalion commander, Daozi, was recruited step by step from the top soldiers through military exploits. The two sides were not the same at all.

Although they are both chief and deputy chief officers in the same battalion, they don't deal with it. The deputy battalion commander Daozi can't understand Xie Zhengxiang pulling a small hill in the camp.

And Xie Zhengxiang, the commander of the Fourth Battalion, made things difficult for him because Daozi belonged to Yang Ling, so the two sides had always had conflicts.

It's just that this kind of conflict is private and not public, but everyone knows it well.

Yang Ling asked Daozi to be the deputy battalion commander. The purpose was very simple, that is, to ensure that the Fourth Battalion could be under control. After all, compared to Xie Zhengxiang, Daozi was closer to him.

It's not that Yang Ling is nepotism, but that in this special age, if the army wants to maintain its combat effectiveness and cohesion, and not be affected by the complicated environment, it can only be assured that its own people can control it.

Although Xie Zhengxiang was the battalion commander, in fact the Fourth Battalion was out of his control, and it was regarded as empty, so he was always upset, so he went around to bribe his confidants, trying to fight for the control of the troops from the hands of the knife come over.

Faced with the private intrigue of the troops, Yang Ling naturally knew something about it, but he also knew that wherever there were people, there would be fights, and this was unavoidable. As long as he was around, these small actions would not cause any big waves.

But this time Yang Ling was not around, and the Fourth Battalion Commander had no ambitions in the Subei Guerrilla Corps, so under the wooing of the traitors, he quickly defected and prepared to lead people to join the enemy.

However, he usually doesn't have a good control over the troops, so if he wants to pull the troops out, the first thing to solve is the knife and other officers who don't deal with him.

This is why he summoned the deputy battalion commander Dao Zi and some company platoon leaders to a meeting.

If someone is willing to follow him, he is naturally happy, if he does not want to follow him and blocks his way, he doesn't mind killing them all.

The deputy battalion commander Daozi had been at odds with the battalion commander Xie Zhengxiang. When faced with the order to surrender his gun, he also regarded it as the other party's embarrassment and disgusted him, so he didn't think deeply about it.

After all, since the establishment of the Northern Jiangsu Guerrilla Corps, there has been no precedent for surrendering to the enemy and betraying the country, which made him a little paralyzed.

In the small conference room of the battalion headquarters, more than 20 company platoon leaders and staff officers were looking for their own seats to sit down.

Now the devils have reached Huaiyin. Although their fourth battalion has not exchanged fire with the little devils, what they are most concerned about is the movements of the devils.

Therefore, they were all talking about the situation of the devils, wondering if they were going to fight, but they didn't know that battalion commander Xie Zhengxiang had another purpose.

While everyone was talking, Battalion Commander Xie Zhengxiang walked into the house surrounded by several guards, and at the same time, a middle-aged man with a strange face followed closely behind.

Seeing Battalion Commander Xie Zhengxiang walking in, followed by a middle-aged man whom he had never met before, even the platoon leaders were taken aback, didn't they mean a meeting, why did an irrelevant person come in.

However, everyone looked at the middle-aged man up and down, and did not ask. They guessed that he might be sent by the headquarters of the general team.

The battalion commander Xie Zhengxiang strode to the main seat, and the middle-aged man stood beside Xie Zhengxiang, making the company platoon leaders even more suspicious of the middle-aged man's identity.

"Brothers, everyone must know that the little devil has already reached Huaiyin, and the situation of our northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps is not optimistic."

Xie Zhengxiang glanced at the company platoon leader and staff officers in the room, and slowly opened his mouth.
