Chapter 368 The Uninvited Guest at Night

The battle, without a doubt, ended very smoothly.

The results of the battle are also very gratifying. They wiped out one battalion after another and captured more than 500 guns, nine light machine guns, three heavy machine guns, dozens of boxes of various bullets and grenades, and successfully captured the enemy commander Han Ying Chief and his lieutenants.

In the deep mountains and old forests, Battalion Commander Han and his adjutant were escorted to a field fortification. Xia Yuan stood in front of the map, drinking hot tea and waiting for these people to arrive. Seeing the adjutant of Battalion Commander Han, Xia Yuan smiled stand up.

Battalion Commander Han and his adjutant looked at the young man who was only seventeen or eighteen in astonishment.

Yang Chenglin said: "This is our head."

Battalion Commander Han took a deep breath and said, "I didn't expect your Excellency to be so young and promising. I'm under Han Shixian."

Xia Yuan smiled and said, "Battlemaster Han was joking, sit down and chat for a while?"

Battalion Commander Han nodded and sat on the stool, feeling quite upright.

Xia Yuan waved his hand and asked someone to pour him a cup of hot tea, which made Battalion Commander Han a little flattered and murmured in his heart.

Xia Yuan said: "Don't worry, it's not poisonous."

Battalion Commander Han shook his head: "I have become a prisoner now. If the regiment commander wants to kill me, he can kill me at any time. He will definitely not poison the water. On the contrary, I believe that there is nothing wrong with this glass of water."

He picked it up, took a sip, and said, "It's just a little hot."

"I didn't expect you to be quite humorous."

Xia Yuan smiled and said, "Battlemaster Han, I think you should know why I asked you to sit down and chat with me like this."

Battalion Commander Han thought for a while and said, "I would like to ask the commander to point it out."

Xia Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll just say it straight."

He put the cup on the map and said, "Battle Commander Han must have been transferred from Xihankou. He must be very familiar with the Red Army in Xihankou. I want to know information about the Red Army in Xihankou."

Battalion Commander Han paused for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "The regiment commander really asked the right person. That's right, Mr. Han was indeed transferred from Xihankou. If he wanted to know about the Red Army in Xihankou, it was natural for Mr. Han to You can also tell me one or two, but Mr. Han also has a question, I hope the head of the team can clear it up for me."

Xia Yuan asked: "What doubts?"

Battalion Commander Han said: "Of course it's about County Magistrate Shen. When we were about to arrive at Xixi Mountain, the county town was suddenly attacked, and he took people back to support him. I want to know if County Magistrate Shen has anything to do with the Red Army." Relationship, after all, this is too coincidental."

Xia Yuan smiled slightly, and said: "The county magistrate Shen has nothing to do with our Red Army. Our intelligence on your team is wrong, so we will naturally use the intelligence gap to deal with you. In fact, our force to attack the county is only There is a company, in order to allow you to separate, and then eat you separately."

Battalion Commander Han smiled wryly: "So that's the case."

Xia Yuan said: "Can Battalion Commander Han talk about the Red Army team in Xihankou?"

Battalion Commander Han nodded, "I also hope that the regiment commander can treat those captured brothers well."

"It's natural."

Battalion Commander Han said: "The Red Army in Xihankou is extremely tenacious. They hide in the mountains and forests. We have nothing to do with them. We can only block that forest."

Xia Yuan asked suspiciously: "Why don't you go up the mountain to encircle and suppress him?"

Battalion Commander Han said: "Regimental Commander, don't you know your Red Army's ability to fight guerrillas in the mountains? We have only two regiments in Xihankou, one in the east and one in the west. Now we are in the midst of a war in the Central Plains. These two regiments The pattern does not dare to act rashly, so it can only besieged first, without fighting, and when the Central Plains War is over in the future, the main force will return to the court, which is the best time to encircle and suppress the Red Army of the Western Han Dynasty."

After a pause, he asked, "Is the commander trying to rescue the Red Army in Xihankou?"

Xia Yuan didn't hide anything, nodded slowly, his eyes lost in thought, thinking about how to rescue this Red Army team.

I suddenly had a rough plan and plan in my mind.

Battalion Commander Han said again: "Commander, to be honest, I have a lot of admiration for your Red Army. Mr. Han's family is also a farmer, and they all struggled out of battles. Different positions, if we can cooperate, who is willing to fight and kill."

After a pause, he continued: "Moreover, Han is very interested in the policies of the Red Army. However, his family is on the side of the National Army and he cannot escape. He has a group of brothers in his hands. If he really wants to follow the Red Army, these brothers will suffer. For the sake of the lives of these brothers, Han also had to obey the orders of his superiors, but the regiment leader can rest assured that my brothers and I did not attack the Red Army on the mountain, and have always been wandering around the periphery of the mountain."

Xia Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Battalion Commander Han in front of him with great interest. In the face of life and death and his position, he still chose life and death, such a person might understand.

Greed for life and fear of death, tends to follow the trend.

Xia Yuan said: "Since Battalion Commander Han understands the Red Army, he should know about the policies of the Red Army. Our Red Army treats prisoners preferentially. If Battalion Commander Han can explain everything he knows clearly, I am willing to give Battalion Commander Han a chance. "

Hearing this, Battalion Commander Han showed a happy expression on his face. He has been in the White Army for so long, and he has mixed up a lot of wealth. He has not had time to enjoy it. He still doesn't want to die. Hearing Xia Yuan's words, he nodded again and again, knowing himself All the things in my head shook out.

Then he was locked up by Xia Yuan.

Yang Chenglin looked at Battalion Commander Han who was taken away, and asked, "Commander, can you believe what this guy says?"

Xia Yuan nodded: "It can be believed that although the situation of the Red Army in Xihankou is not good, it is not in danger of life. rescued by the Red Army."

At this time, Hu Xianfeng walked in: "Regimental Commander, the casualties have been counted. The second battalion lost 11 people and injured 68 people. The third battalion lost 23 people and injured 59 people."

Xia Yuan stood up and said: "It is worthwhile for us to pay such casualties. You go tell the political commissar, take out some oceans and food, and give compensation to the families of those sacrificed soldiers. If it is an only child, then we The Red Army is their child."

"Yes!"

Hu Xianfeng went to settle things after the war.

The deputy battalion commander of the second battalion came in and said, "Commander, the results of this battle are not bad. We captured more than 200 people, killed more than 200 enemies, and captured a lot of guns and ammunition. Take a look."

The deputy battalion commander handed Xia Yuan a list of seized materials. Xia Yuan took a look and said, "These weapons and ammunition are given priority to the first, second and third battalions, especially all kinds of heavy weapons."

Yang Chenglin said: "Regimental Commander, let us go to the first battalion for this mission. Our first battalion will definitely rescue the Red Army comrades in Xihankou!"

Xia Yuan shook his head: "No, the [-]st, [-]nd, and [-]rd Battalions will jointly operate the rescue mission. What we will face are the enemies of the two regiments in Xihankou. We need to block the enemies in Xihankou to rescue our troops in Xihankou. The Red Army."

Considering that the Red Army in Xihankou had been besieged for so long, Xia Yuan had to start thinking about how to rescue the Red Army in Xihankou after the battle. Xihankou had two regiments of the White Army with more than 2000 troops. There are only one thousand troops, two to one, plus the enemy's logistics supplies are sufficient, and their weapons and ammunition are in short supply. It is not easy to eat up this group of enemies.

While Xia Yuan was thinking, in the county seat, County Magistrate Shen was sitting on a stool covered in cold sweat, with a hint of panic on his face: "It's over, it's over, the whole battalion and army were wiped out in Sanpingdu, it's over now, we have Huge responsibility, the strength of the Red Army is far more than a company, to be able to encircle and annihilate Battalion Commander Han's battalion plus my company's strength at three levels, the strength of this Red Army is at least one regiment or more."

Immediately, his expression became ferocious again: "Go and call the person who came the day before yesterday!"

The old housekeeper hurriedly said: "County magistrate, that person has left the county seat yesterday, and his whereabouts are missing."

"what!"

County Magistrate Shen sat down on the stool and took a deep breath: "I didn't expect this Red Army to be so cunning. They sent false information, which made us wrongly judge the strength of the Red Army, and led to the encirclement and annihilation of Battalion Commander Han." , we have a huge responsibility, we have a huge responsibility."

County Magistrate Shen felt extremely uncomfortable when he thought of the pressure he would face from the White Army.

In this way, I spent two days in a daze.

In the middle of the night that night, two figures sneaked into Magistrate Shen's mansion. The drowsy Magistrate Shen suddenly felt a burning gaze staring at him. He quickly opened his eyes and saw a figure standing In front of his bedside, there was a trace of coldness in his eyes.

County Magistrate Shen suddenly felt his scalp go numb, "You, who are you!"

The figure said coldly: "Red Army!"

County Magistrate Shen's eyes were fixed, his whole body was stiff, and his lips trembled a little: "Red, the Red Army, no, it's impossible, the Red Army is not in Nianping Village, they can't possibly come to the county town!"

He was about to open his mouth to shout, when a cold object was pressed against his forehead, "I advise County Magistrate Shen not to shout, the troops of my four battalions outside the county town are ready, once they hear any movement in the county town, they They will attack the city at all costs, and since County Magistrate Shen knows that Battalion Commander Han has been wiped out by us, the two companies remaining in the county town want to resist the attack of a regiment, County Magistrate Shen thinks it might be impossible?"

County Magistrate Shen broke out in a cold sweat and asked, "What exactly do you want to do?"

The little concubine lying next to her vaguely heard County Magistrate Shen talking, opened her eyes and saw a black figure standing beside their bed, who opened his mouth to scream, the man suddenly stretched out his palm and shot like lightning , chopped at the woman's neck, the woman rolled her eyes and lay down.

County Magistrate Shen was terrified: "What did you do to her?"

The man said: "Don't worry, Magistrate Shen, she's just in a coma. I'm here this time mainly to discuss cooperation with Magistrate Shen."

County Mayor Shen pretended to be calm and asked, "What kind of cooperation?"

The man said: "Give me a batch of weapons and equipment, and I will take people away. In the future, we will not violate the river. You live in your county, and we live in our valley. No matter what happens outside, you Don't bother asking, don't worry about it, our Red Army only has conflicts with the White Army, if you insist on getting involved, then I'm sorry, I don't think County Magistrate Shen can survive tonight."

County Magistrate Shen looked a little frightened, "How many weapons and equipment?"

The man said: "A battalion, I want it now!"

County Magistrate Shen is also aware of current affairs, and quickly said: "A battalion has too many weapons and equipment."

The man said: "Not many. Your ammunition depot in the county is enough to equip a regiment. I only need one battalion. How could there be too many?"

County Magistrate Shen stared at the figure in front of him: "You, you know everything."

The man said: "Of course, we must do our homework when we come to the county."

"homework?"

"You don't have to worry about this, just take out the weapons and equipment of a battalion and drag them outside the city, and we will retreat immediately."

County Magistrate Shen took a deep breath and said, "Can you guarantee that I will give you the weapons and equipment, and you will retreat immediately?"

"Of course, I still pay attention to honesty, not to mention your life is already in my hands, killing you only needs to pull the trigger, but if you kill you, another new county magistrate will come forward Come on, compared to choosing a new county magistrate, I still hope to cooperate with you. After all, your methods are a bit dark. Farmer's head, you won't see me tonight."

County Magistrate Shen broke out in a cold sweat. Looking back on the past, he bullied traders in the county. Fortunately, he did not bully farmers. Bullying farmers actually affected the interests of local landlords, and it was too far away from the county. Landlords, one by one, let them collect more grain every year.

He was very happy.

Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, the tension was relieved a little, County Magistrate Shen said: "I can give you the weapons and equipment of a battalion, but I also hope that you can keep your word. After today, you and I will not interfere with each other."

"nature."

That night, County Magistrate Shen took out a battalion's equipment from the warehouse and transported them to the cemetery two kilometers outside the South Gate, which Heiying said.

In the dim night, Magistrate Shen looked at the surrounding cemeteries, as if there were pairs of eyes staring at them, which made him feel creepy, so he immediately ordered his men to put down the weapons and equipment and leave immediately, even the carriage pulling the weapons and equipment was not taken away, just like that A group of people quickly disappeared into the graveyard.

Not long after this group of people left, a group of people emerged from the cemetery, and the commander of the fourth battalion, Wen Juxin, said with a smile on his face: "I didn't expect that what the commander said was true. Someone will really send weapons and equipment here in the middle of the night. Hurry up!" , take your things and leave quickly."

The deputy battalion commander asked: "Old Wen, what do you think is going on with the regimental commander?"

Wen Juxin said with a smile: "It's not something you and I can worry about, you just need to believe what the team leader says."
