Episode 39
Zhou Weiguo, who returned to the base area, found that the political commissar was dead, and most of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army had died in the line of duty. Zhou Weiguo was sad that the casualties were so heavy this time.Takeshita Jun planned to ambush Zhou Weiguo in the mountainous areas. Zhou Weiguo realized that Takeshita Jun would not evacuate so easily. He took Chen Yi to Hutoushan. For the sake of Chen Yi's safety, Zhou Weiguo asked her not to return to Zhaozhuang for the time being.Takeshita Jun led his troops to attack the Eighth Route Army. He led a small team to enter first, and then gestured to the second team to let them in. However, after the gesture was made for a long time, the second team was not seen. Only then did Takeshita Jun realize that this was very serious.It might be a trap set by Zhou Weiguo.Sure enough, Takeshita Jun and others were attacked by fierce artillery fire from the Eighth Route Army. Takeshita Jun had no choice but to evacuate with his men.
Takeshita Jun ran in front, and Zhou Weiguo led his troops to pursue him from behind. Takeshita Jun encountered many ambushes along the way. He did not expect that Zhou Weiguo would have such a strong force to drive him out.Zhou Weiguo snatched back Qingyuan City, which was originally occupied by the Japanese army, for the national army. This helped the national army a lot. Brigadier Tang was also very grateful to Zhou Weiguo.Zhou Weiguo made a deal with Liu Zhihui. Because he had recaptured Qingyuan City, Zhou Weiguo asked the national army for three million kilograms of grain.Liu Zhihui returned to the camp and told Brigadier Tang about the matter. Brigadier Tang did not expect that Zhou Weiguo had such a big appetite and asked for three million kilograms of grain at once.
Brigadier Tang said that Zhou Weiguo really had a good brother, and Liu Zhihui's elbow was completely turned in the direction of Zhou Weiguo.Brigadier Tang thought about it and felt that this was not a loss compared to a sale. Liu Zhihui told him that Zhou Weiguo asked that this matter not be told to anyone else in the Qingyuan base. Brigadier Tang agreed, but after all, this was a sale, so he would pay half of it in advance.The food will be given to the other half after the work is completed.Takeshita Jun's men told Takeshita Jun about Zhou Weiguo's attack in the direction of Taifeng. Zhou Weiguo had never attacked the direction of Taifeng before. Takeshita Jun felt that this was Zhou Weiguo's tactic of claiming east and attacking in the west.Takeshita Jun thought he knew Zhou Weiguo very well, but in fact Zhou Weiguo knew him better, which made Takeshita Jun a little panicked.
