There was a place in the southeast of Zoucheng in Jining called Zhang Village.
There was a guerrilla team around Zhang Village. They called themselves the Yimeng guerrilla team. Of course, there were many people in the entire Yimeng mountain area who called themselves the Yimeng guerrilla team. However, their guerrilla team was the strongest.
Everyone had heard of the Yimeng Mountains countless times, but the exact location didn't affect them much. They only thought of the old base.
To put it simply, the Yimeng Mountains connected Zoucheng, Shanting County, Lanling County, Linyi, Pingyi, and Sishui County. The area in the middle was the scope of the Yimeng Mountains.
I'm off topic.
This group of guerrillas was the defeated army in the Battle of Xuzhou. A group of people ran around in panic, and the Japanese were chasing after them.
They dived into the Yimeng Mountain area without paying attention. They were safe after entering, but this group of people had never been here before. As they walked, they got lost.
Later, he learned from the local people that this was the territory of Yimeng Mountain. It was surrounded by mountains. The Japanese usually would not come to these places.
The group of people thought,'We're already lost anyway, and we ran into this mountainous area. If we go out here and the surroundings are filled with the Japanese, won't they be eaten alive by the Japanese?'
This group of people simply stayed behind to play guerrilla warfare. The military uniforms from back then had long been thrown away and changed into the clothes of the local people.
The group of people usually reclaimed some land and planted it. From time to time, they would bring people out to steal a few Japanese. After this, they had gone too far.
Some of the Japanese had died, and this was not good. Others came to seek revenge, but they couldn't find their way into the Yimeng Mountains. This group of people stole the Japanese from behind, killing one here and one there.
They kept the weapons they seized for their own use. After they became famous, some of the local young men joined them. Just like that, the scattered army of dozens of people slowly pulled in three to four hundred people.
The land was not farmed much anymore. Everyone was thinking about how to deal with the Japanese. From time to time, they would run to the road to ambush and seize some weapons and ammunition.
When they were busy farming, they would also help the common people farm. Anyway, it was quite good. However, now this group of people gathered in the house and seemed to be discussing something.
........
"Special agent, you want us to surrender to the traitors? We can't do this. I won't agree to it. So many of our brothers have died in the hands of the Japanese. Now, they want us to be traitors. This is absolutely not acceptable. I'll be the first to disagree ~"
Inside the house, six or seven people dressed in civilian clothes surrounded a middle-aged man in a Chinese tunic suit and roared angrily.
The person who spoke just now was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. He had a large scar on his face and was glaring at the man in the Chinese tunic suit.
The person who spoke was called Lu Rongzong, the second-in-command of the Yimeng Mountain guerrillas. It sounded like a bandit's lair, but that was how they called it.
This special agent was one of the people sent by the commander to contact these guerrillas. This time, in order to cooperate with Liu Chuan, the military commander had put in a lot of effort. They sent people through layers of blockades to reach the occupied area and tried their best to find these guerrillas and contact them.
The special agent looked around at the others and said,"Do you think so too?"
"Special agent, it's not that we don't obey orders, but we really can't agree to this matter. We can't surrender to that traitor Liu Chuan.
"Although we're in Yimeng Mountain, we've heard of this person. After he was supported by the Japanese, he began to suppress dissidents, take bribes, and exploit the people.
In order to curry favor with the Japanese, they had taken hundreds of thousands of dollars and millions of kilograms of food from the people two months ago. I can't do it if you want us to turn to such a person."
The person who spoke was in his thirties. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was the leader of the Yimeng Mountain guerrillas. His name was Li Hongjian. He was originally a colonel in the 49th division of the Gui army. After the battle of Xu Prefecture, he had been separated from the main force and had led his men to hide in the east and hide in the east. He had plunged into the Yimeng Mountains.
The Second Head, Lu Rongzong, was his Battalion Commander.
"I don't agree to join that traitor either. If you weren't a special agent, I would have suspected that you were sent by the Japanese. We're fighting the Japanese here. Why should we go and seek refuge with a traitor?”
At this moment, another young man spoke again. This person was about 24 or 25 years old. He looked a little delicate and handsome, but he revealed a lot of muscles. In one sentence, he said, He was indeed skinny and muscular.
His name was Chai Guangming. He was not a defeated soldier, but a native of Yimeng Mountain. Li Hongjian and the others came here to fight the Japanese. It could be said that they protected the surrounding villages from being plundered by the Japanese, so they were welcomed by the local people.
Li Hongjian was also a hunter. In ancient times, he was a hunter with outstanding archery skills. He was a righteous man and had a good reputation here. He brought a group of friends to join the guerrillas.
Hence, Li Hongjian's team had expanded from a few dozen people to three to four hundred people. Li Hongjian also made Chai Guangming the third in charge. Who asked him to have a high reputation among the local youths!
The special agent saw that everyone was thinking the same thing and could not help but sigh. He did not understand why his boss wanted him to contact these guerrillas and make them join Liu Chuan.
As for what the higher-ups said about the guerrillas not being able to survive under the Japanese's attack, they could only rely on a traitor to temporarily hide and wait for the war to start again. The special agent was unwilling to believe this reason.
However, there was nothing he could do. There were some secrets that he could not access. His mission was to contact these guerrillas and persuade them.
"To be honest, I understand your feelings. I also know that this order is too difficult for you to accept. But I can tell you that the Japanese are serious this time.
There were two divisions of Japanese soldiers, as well as other local troops and puppet troops. The number of Japanese soldiers participating in the encirclement was around 170,000. Because the two Japanese divisions had lost too much in the siege of Zhengzhou, they were still waiting for reinforcements from the country, so the siege had not begun.
Once these two divisions were replenished by the Japanese, they would immediately start the siege plan. Do you think you can survive against 170,000 Japanese soldiers?
Let alone 170,000 people, even 2,000 people could surround you to death. The higher-ups asked me to bring you a message. It's said that Liu Chuan is greedy and likes money.
The higher-ups have given him a large amount of money. As long as you surrender to him, he can guarantee that you won't die.”
Sometimes, it was really important to have an explanation. Liu Chuan was too important to the commander because he knew a lot of high-level military information about the Japanese.
Although it was just a little bit, it was extremely valuable information to a commander. Therefore, the commander would never reveal Liu Chuan's identity to others.
How many people knew that Liu Chuan was sacrificing himself for the country?
At present, there were only Xiang Menghe, Liu Zhen, Dai Yunong, and Ma Qiaoshan, the director of the Second Bureau. There were only a few of them in the country.
Therefore, in order to get the guerillas to cooperate with Liu Chuan without exposing Liu Chuan's identity, they could only use this excuse.
