Chapter 814 Chess pieces
Hearing that Tang Da Tuan was going to sing a love song, the soldiers in the audience were the first to cheer.
As ordinary soldiers, the Commander Tang they saw on the battlefield had the toughest military image. Although he was very casual and gentle in normal situations, the iron-blooded image on the battlefield was too stubborn in the hearts of the soldiers, which somewhat made them feel uncomfortable. There is still some distance between Tang Dao and ordinary officers and soldiers.
Tang Da Tuanzuo suddenly wanted to sing a love song describing the relationship between a man and a woman at a party, but he quickly narrowed the seemingly non-existent but real distance. As for how well he sang, it didn't matter.
Tang Dao should actually have been prepared for this situation. He turned around and handed a piece of music score to the two students who were accompanists.
The party held by the Si Xing Troupe was quite large in scale. In fact, except for the rented theater microphone and sound system, which cost some money, the rest, from actors to accompanists, were all our own, and the costumes were basically military uniforms, so they were very frugal.
The so-called accompaniment is just two students from the student company, and the musical instruments are a bamboo flute and an accordion.
However, both students are masters in this field. Even a bamboo flute, which is not an inconspicuous among traditional Chinese musical instruments, still played the sound of an iron horse in Gu Xishui and Mingxin's first program. That should also be related to this student's experience of spending more than a month with the Four Elements Troupe. Many viewers voted for Mingxin's sword dance, and I'm afraid it has a lot to do with the melodious flute sound.
The accompaniment required a little familiarity with the music score. Tang Dao walked off the stage and chatted with Gong Shaoxun who hurried from outside the venue. The officers and soldiers in the audience were waiting with passion. In order to liven up the atmosphere, an officer began to take the lead in singing.
“Broadsword, chop off the heads of the Japanese!” A company sang a few lines of the popular broadsword song, and then shouted in unison: “Artillery Company 1, here comes one!”
“The storm is rising, the mountains and rivers are moving, the Huangpu Army is building with great momentum, and the revolutionary heroes are loyal!” The challenged 1st Artillery Company was not to be outdone and shouted the army military song.
The soldiers sang one after another on the field, and the atmosphere was much more lively than watching a play in a theater.
Qian Dazhu took the excited eldest daughter of the Jia family to take photos of the familiar faces he met in the venue. The eldest daughter of the Jia family kept pressing the shutter in excitement to keep the smiling faces of the officers and soldiers in the film. Zhu's young face also smiled like a flower.
Perhaps, this is what young men and women should look like, showing off their youth and smiling wantonly under the quiet sky.
Unfortunately, the war changed everything, and there will not be many such days now and in the extremely long time to come.
Melodious flute and accordion sounds came from the speakers, the lively sounds gradually lowered until there was no more sound, and Tang Dao's metallic voice spread throughout the audience.
“This song I heard that you are in the distance is for all those who have lovers and those who are waiting for their lovers!”
“Hearing that you are in the distance, I set out to travel thousands of miles.
Chasing the scenery along the way takes your breath with you.
It's really hard to forget the news about 伱.
Accompany you through the north, south, east and west, and we will never be apart.
Can I love you? I never rest.
Like the wind that has traveled thousands of miles without asking when it will return.
I have blown the wind that you have blown, does this count as an embrace?
I have walked the same path you have walked, does this count as a meeting?
I still like you so much and want to grow old with you.
I still like you just because of your tenderness. "
This love song from the future nearly a hundred years in the future does not have many gorgeous words to embellish it. It is simple and catchy. Maybe the times are different, but human emotions are understood.
Especially the phrase "I have blown the wind that you have blown, does this count as an embrace", but it vividly expresses the lingering affection between men and women.
If you love me, the wind you blow by can make me feel sweet and fragrant!
Tantai Mingyue on the side of the stage was a little crazy when she heard "I want to grow old with you". Isn't this how she felt when she heard the news about him at the train station, turned around and jumped off the train to follow the 67th Army to the Songjiang front line!
Unexpectedly, Tang Dao actually sang it all in one song. But he never asked about these, and she never took the initiative to talk about them. How did he know?
But this is not important. What is important is that she knows that he knows.
It happened that at this moment, Tang Dao looked over. At that moment, the eyes of the unmarried couple touched each other. There were no more tears, but they smiled at each other, showing the most beautiful look of love.
Tang Dao is a tough guy with a strong temperament, but he performed such a tender love song. Despite the huge contrast, it doesn't feel inconsistent.
After singing the song, the audience was quiet for more than ten seconds, and then thunderous applause and cheers broke out!
"Master, Miss has found a really good uncle! This song is good, Miss will be blessed in the future." Tantai Yunshu was listening to the song with squinted eyes as if unmoved and a stern face, but the old family members around him were indifferent. said.
“Noisy!” Tantai Yunshu snorted coldly. "That's what I know with my sharp eyes. What does a little girl like her know?"
“Yes, yes, sir, you must have the foresight to decide on this match right away!” The old man smiled and complimented the middle-aged handsome man.
He has grown up with Tantai Yunshu since he was a child, and is probably the person who knows him best besides Tantai Yunshu's old wife at home. However, he knows what his greatest expectations are for his future son-in-law. He may have achievements and abilities, but Compared with the deep love for my little cotton-padded jacket, the rest is nothing.
Although the song Tang Dao just sang was for everyone, anyone with a discerning eye would know that it was sung by Tang Dao to Tantai Mingyue. As Tantai Mingyue's father, Tantai Yunshu was naturally filled with joy. .
It's just that this person has always disliked him as much as he liked him in his heart. Due to his personality, he would never show it in any case. Just like when it was clearly to help raise military expenses for my daughter and son-in-law, but it was still called "freight". The freight was worth twenty to thirty thousand dollars?
Not only people who know Tang Dao can hear it.
"You, Commander Tang of the Four Elements Group, are really amazing. You dare to express your love to his lover through a song in public! However, it does not damage the image of his iron-blooded army at all." The eldest daughter of the Jia family looked at the people on the stage in the distance. Tang Dao sighed quietly.
“Sir, didn't you say that you should give this song to everyone present?” Qian Dazhu scratched his head.
“So your Company Commander Qian is still a bachelor, but your Commander Tang is already a famous man! Do you understand?” The eldest daughter of the Jia family rolled her eyes and said angrily.
"Of course I can't compare with our superiors, it's far behind." Qian Dazhu continued to scratch his head.
Miss Jia looked at the young company commander with some worry, wondering if he should continue chatting. Even if he is middle-aged, this idiot is almost bald.
"Fellow folks, thank you very much for coming to the New Year's party of our Fourth Army Group. The party is now more than half over, and the next program is compiled at the request of the First Theater Command. However, it is not a stage performance, but a need Everyone present is participating, everyone is waiting for the outdoor concealed air defense exercise," Tang Dao announced on the stage after singing.
Hearing what Tang Dao said, the people present were stunned. This operation of the Si Xing Group was too wasteful. They even conducted air defense drills during the Chinese New Year.
However, it doesn't matter. I have long heard that the Japanese aircraft are powerful. If you are familiar with how to avoid aircraft bombing in advance, it will be a life-saving skill.
Besides, haven't you heard what Commander Tang said! This was done at the request of the First Theater Command, which shows that the Japanese offensive is becoming more and more fierce.
The faces of the 'celebrities' who can think of this look a little heavy, which means that their asset transfer and withdrawal must continue to speed up.
However, the officers and soldiers of the Si Xing Regiment probably didn't think so. Although Tang Dao did not issue military orders as usual, the soldier's instinct still made them smell something different. Recalling that Tang Dao returned from Zhengzhou City, he ordered a two-meter-deep trench to be dug around the town.
The trenches were completely beyond ordinary field standards. And most of the trenches are in woodlands rather than wild fields, as if the targets to be avoided do not come from the ground but from the sky.
It is even more inappropriate that Cheng Tietsou's 2nd Artillery Battery has all disappeared since the military parade.
Perhaps this is not a drill at all?
Doubts passed through the eyes of many officers, but no one made their suspicions public, because there were nearly ten thousand people at the scene, and it would be terrible if panic led to trampling.
The security force in charge of Gong Shaoxun had obviously anticipated this "air defense exercise". After the air defense siren sounded, groups of soldiers with live ammunition came from outside and led the people to the designated area.
Since it was an air defense exercise, the people did not panic. They followed the soldiers to the trenches dug a kilometer or two away, while discussing the joy of today and their expectations for the upcoming water mat.
President Jia was a smart man. He followed Tang Dao halfway and tugged at the corner of Tang Dao's clothes: "Captain Tang, tell me, is this really an air defense exercise arranged by the theater headquarters?"
Tang Dao looked back at Jia Dongxing, who had a tense face, and smiled slightly: "President Jia, there is no need to worry. Regardless of whether it is an air defense exercise or not, this is a New Year's gift from the Four Elements Group to the elders in Zhengzhou's hometown. Since it is the Chinese New Year, We have to set off fireworks, right?”
“Huh?” Jia Dongxing's calf almost twisted and he fell over.
If he was just guessing before, now Tang Dao's meaning is very obvious. The Japanese planes are really going to attack.
And looking at Tang Dao's expression, it was obvious that he had obtained this information in advance.
When did the Japanese military planes not come, but why did they come at this time? Even the Fourth Army Group dug thousands of meters of trenches to deal with it, which is terrifying if you think about it!
"President Jia, believe me, this fireworks feast will only be held a few kilometers away from here, and there is no chance to get close to here." Tang Dao supported Jia Dongxing, who was almost frightened, and whispered to him Said in the ear.
In fact, the truth of the matter is not what the president of the Textile Association imagined. No matter what Tang Dao did, he would not use the lives of his entire regiment of officers and soldiers and nearly 10,000 people as bait to induce Japanese aircraft to attack.
But Tang Dao doesn't do this, it doesn't mean that some people don't do it.
In this overall situation, Tang Dao at this time is just one of the chess pieces, at best a stronger chess piece.
That afternoon a few days ago, the admiral and commander did not just meet Tang Dao, a handsome young man, on a whim.
Although they only communicated for a few minutes, Tang Dao had a new understanding of this person's boldness and ruthlessness. How could a simple person be a commander of a theater?
In that quiet little hall, Tang Dao passively accepted the arrangement for the first time. The whole audience was crushed, with almost no room for struggle.
"I have received intelligence five days ago that the Japanese invaders in North China will launch air attacks on our two important cities of Kaifeng and Zhengzhou at the beginning of the new year to destroy our business and logistical support and damage our morale!" Commander Cheng said in an almost straight-to-the-point manner. Tell top secret information.
“Sir, what you want is for this party of our Four Elements Regiment to be used as bait to lure the enemy to attack?” It only took Tang Dao a few seconds to understand what the army general in front of him meant.
“That's right, your Fourth Army Regiment has made such a big noise. How come the Japanese spies in the city didn't report this important information?” The old man was not surprised at all by Tang Dao's acumen. "It would be fine if they were replaced by other troops, but your Four Troops are different. Your troops defeated the Kunisaki detachment in the first battle of Guangtoku and severely damaged their vitality. As one of the few senior generals of the Japanese North China Expeditionary Force, Itagaki Seishiro would never dream of I'm thinking about how to eat your Tang Dao's flesh and drink your Tang Dao's blood.”
"Thousands of soldiers and civilians will be used as bait for Japanese planes to bomb. I believe you, sir, must be prepared!" Tang Dao did not refuse, but asked directly.
Tang Dao knew that in this kind of situation where hundreds of thousands of troops were fighting fiercely at every turn, let alone him and the Four Elements Group, even the old man in front of him was just a member of the chess game in front of the boss, but he was not allowed to be left alone. He is a chess piece that can be chosen at will. If you want to use him as a chess piece, that's fine, but you have to come up with something.
"For this top-secret intelligence, we have sacrificed the lives of three senior intelligence personnel, and two secret intelligence stations in Yanjing City were destroyed. However, this may not be the final loss. On the day when the Japanese fighter jets take off, there will be more There is information sent out, and every word we see is written in blood." The old man's face finally showed solemnity.
“In response to this air attack, as soon as I received the intelligence, I mobilized anti-aircraft machine guns capable of air defense in the entire theater. Anti-aircraft artillery troops gathered in the two cities. There are currently 64 anti-aircraft machine guns and 32 20mm machine guns.
In addition, I also have an anti-aircraft artillery battalion that retreated from Jinling, now equipped with 4 SKC/30 88mm anti-aircraft guns! "
“German 88mm anti-aircraft gun?” Tang Dao's face was also moved.
He finally understood why this man was so confident that he would convince him. It turned out that he had such big guys in his hands.
Germany has a developed industry, from the BF109 fighter jets flying in the sky, the Tiger tanks that were rampant on the ground, to the MG42 machine guns that made the infantry's hair stand on end, to the Mauser rifles that shoot accurately, even if it is synonymous with German-made military products, it is not Too much.
The German 88mm anti-aircraft gun is one of the finest products of the German military industry. This kind of anti-aircraft gun is synonymous with German Krupp cannon technology in this era. It is not only used to fight aircraft, but also has the ability to destroy tanks in World War II with its extraordinary muzzle velocity. The capabilities of any ground armor during the period have been proven in actual combat. No tank of that type can withstand a fatal blow from this 88mm anti-aircraft gun at a distance of 1,000 meters.
China, as the financial sponsor of the Germans, imported 16 of these high-performance anti-aircraft guns exactly one year before the war, and went into battle in the Battle of Songhu, with a record of shooting down and damaging more than 20 Japanese fighter planes. .
Even in the famous naval battle of Jiangyin, the gun sank two Japanese gunboats and damaged more than 10 Japanese ships.
It is not easy to use this cannon to hit Japanese aircraft, but at least it is no longer the same as in the past, where you have to induce the Japanese troops to lower their altitude before focusing the fire. This guy's shells can blow up Japanese aircraft into sieves at an altitude of more than 2,000 meters. .
"That's right, without such a sharp weapon, how could I kill thousands of soldiers and civilians into the hands of the enemy? I will appoint you as the commander-in-chief of this air defense battle code-named 'Destroying Xiao Xiao'. If you can shoot down several Japanese planes in one fell swoop, let them If you are too wary to easily attack the important city walls in the rear, then our first battle zone can devote all its strength to the defense line without leaving so much equipment in the rear. Your Tang Dao's combat achievements will be no less than any soldiers in the front!" The old man stood up for the first time and threw out the bait.
Seeing that Tang Dao did not answer quickly, the old man looked calm and threw a piece of paper to Tang Dao: "This is a secret order from above. The man from the 20th Army is not a broad-minded person. What he accused you of, even though There is no actual evidence, but that person is suspicious and asked me to pay close attention to you. If there is any abnormality, I will immediately block the way for your four-pronged regiment to go north, and the Military and Political Department will re-issue an order for your troops to return to participate in the Xuzhou Battle! "
Seeing that Tang Dao's face suddenly became solemn, the old man said: "This battle is over, I will let your troops move forward in the first battle area. No matter where you go, I will just pretend that you are invisible. If your troops need it in the future, as long as I am here You can come find me wherever you are."
This is really a good method. Although it does not overwhelm others, it leaves them powerless to resist.
Tang Dao knew that as long as he refused, the road to the north would end here, and he had to take this bait.
"Okay, I fought this battle, but my subordinates requested that if the performance is acceptable, please add 8 machine guns to our four-line regiment in the first theater!" Tang Dao stood at attention and accepted.
"I can't give you the machine gun. It's the darling of each army. Even if I am the commander of the theater, I can't easily touch it. But I can give you 50,000 ocean military expenses as a reward for the Fourth Army Regiment!" The old man's face twitched slightly. , a very painful answer.
Both sides entered the bargaining mode directly, without much intrigue and intrigue. For two soldiers, one old and one young, none of that was necessary.
Because both parties have what they want to gain, naturally they must pay for it.
Tang Dao accepted the offer of 50,000 yuan, and the veteran theater commander also had the sweetest bait he could use to ambush the Japanese army.
There is no need to deliberately spread the news. The information about the military-civilian celebration of the Fourth Army Regiment has already been placed on the desk of the Japanese North China Expeditionary Army Headquarters.
No one can resist this huge temptation, not least Seishiro Itagaki, who deeply hates Tang Dao and his four-legged group!
