Under the moonlight.

The so-called complete security zone of the enemy on the plain.

The horizontal blockade of the ditch and the highway form a network, three miles and one cannon tower, five miles and one stronghold.

The news that the Ninth Battalion broke through the Japanese blockade line and wiped out more than 30 Japanese soldiers was soon transmitted to Liaocheng through the radio.

Over the years, there has never been a major vicious incident of such a large number of casualties in the core occupied areas of North China.

This news immediately attracted the attention of the North Special Police, located in Liaocheng, the command center.

As a confidentiality unit, the North Special Police did not come forward directly, but only informed the information to the colonel of the Japanese garrison stationed in Liaocheng.

[Information class determined that the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment Ninth Battalion through a comprehensive analysis of the strength, tactics and combat effectiveness of this group of Eighth Route Army troops...

The Eighth Route Army was extremely cunning, and was fighting the Ninth Battalion organization that did not exist at all..

Fake Allied troops from the guard battalion of the first brigade and the first regiment...]

The rank of a colonel in uniform was shiny, and the middle-aged devil looked gloomy after reading the information.

After thinking for a while, he ordered the messenger: "Immediately recruit all the security troops, city defense troops, and security regiment liaison officers who stayed in the command center for a meeting!"

All the demons and monsters living in the military camp were pulled from their sleep by the devils.

Run hurried to the conference room.

When I saw that everyone was here, I sat down.

The colonel suddenly raised his hand and clenched his fist and smashed it on the conference table: "There is a wave of Eighth Route Army breaking through the sweeping blockade and rushing to the core occupied areas of the Imperial Army. Please inform all the strongholds immediately, strengthen the blockade of the artillery towers, and work together at home. Be sure to catch all the Eighth Route Army in one go!"

"yes!"

"yes..."

The traitors quickly responded and then made arrangements to their respective responsible areas...

The Japanese Nakazo, who was responsible for commanding the sweeping on the front line, brought a radio station.

Instead, he was the first to receive a telegram from the headquarters: to fully encircle the Eighth Route Army Group that fled.

Zhong Zuo carefully marked the map, and from time to time issued orders to the messengers and dispatched troops.

The Japanese who were pulling nets in parallel to the south quickly gathered and ate most of the villages of the Imperial Army in the Tujiao Army.

The Japanese gathered on a large scale toward the east.

Immediately attract the attention of the partition scout.

News continues to gather at the anti-sweeping commanders.

With years of anti-sweeping experience, Battalion Commander Li felt that the Japanese were unusually mobilized, and there must be another reason.

Immediately recruited my first and second company commanders to have a meeting in a small area of ​​sorghum.

Two torches were lit in the sorghum field.

Battalion Commander Li pointed to the map spread on the ground: "A large number of enemies moved eastward, everyone talked about the reasons behind the Japanese's abnormal actions..."

The company commander looked at the map: "The Japanese are heading east? The largest anti-Japanese team over there is Wang Shun's army..."

The second company commander shook his head: "Wang Shun's troops have such a few guns, it shouldn't be worth the attacks of so many Japanese... "

"A few days ago, Battalion Commander Hu brought people to reinforce Wang Shun. I think it is very likely to be related to them?" Battalion Commander Li's face was abnormal.

With a keen sense, his judgment was almost completely correct.

The first company commander nodded: "Battery Commander, your analysis is correct. It must be Battalion Commander Hu and others. Apart from them, there should be no one who is so bold to provoke the Japanese..."

The second company commander added: "If Company Commander Li Xiang had not captured the Japanese gunboat in the canal, the villagers who crossed the canal would have faced huge casualties..."

Battalion Commander Li stood up from the ground: "Most of the people have been moved to the west of the canal. I think we should destroy what the Japanese want to do!"

"That's right, the key to guerrilla warfare is to advance and retreat, and the enemy retreats and fight. I agree with the battalion commander's opinion!"

Li Ying Shang showed a worried expression: "Most of the villagers have moved to the west of the canal, while the puppet army is still heading south. I am very worried about the villagers who are unwilling to leave..."

"You mean... those landlords and old money? They were flirting with the Japanese and puppet troops, and even if they died..." The company chief didn't care.

Battalion Commander Li warned: "Pay attention to your words and deeds!"

"Ahem, I'm quick to speak for a moment..." The company commander was a little embarrassed.

The second company commander quickly rescued the siege: "I think Battalion Commander Hu and others are brothers after all. They have caused the Japanese. We should do something for them!"

The first company commander followed and agreed: "That's right, they only have one battalion of troops. Even if they can fight, they can't be the opponent of the Japanese!"

I heard that my commander almost coincided with my own thoughts.

Battalion Commander Li no longer hesitated and immediately began to make arrangements: "... Order: immediately notify the reconnaissance platoon to hang behind the Japanese, find a way to find out the Japanese's accurate movements and military strength. The first and second companies immediately gathered troops that could still travel far, and carried the Japanese's movement direction to harass and fight... The third company stayed to take care of the wounded on the spot to garrison..."

The correspondent who had been on standby quickly ran into the darkness under the moon.

The team was originally dispersed and gathered quickly.

"There are all, the troops are divided into three groups and move eastward!" Battalion Commander Li's face looked bitter, and now only one company of troops can move.

He and the first company commander and the second company commander actually had only one platoon of troops...

And the Japanese troops to harass are at least thousands of!

The first company commander was a little worried: "There is also a second line of defense of the puppet army originally arranged behind the Japanese in the north..."

"Everyone must be careful. This operation is very dangerous. If you are not careful, you may be attacked by the Japanese puppet army."

At this time, they didn't know that Hu Yi had turned west after running dozens of miles north...

...

The Japanese were short of troops and a large number of puppet troops were dispatched to mobilize them.

Hu Yi doesn't think this time is too difficult.

Bicycle scout in front.

After the Ninth Battalion divided the troops, there were not many people in each team.

Using the windproof forest on the plain to cover up the traces, we advance rapidly towards the west.

In the wilderness, one Japanese after another swept away the empty villages.

"Hurry up..." Tang Dagou was carrying a rifle on his back, and kept shouting and walking forward quickly.

"We have been running around the back of the Public Security Army for more than 30 miles. It is impossible for the Japanese to know our whereabouts..." A black shadow muttered in panting.

Another dark shadow looked at the village under the moonlit night two miles away: "Don't forget that there may be omnipresent traitors in those villages!"

"Tsk, there is no one in the villages after the Japanese swept it..."

"Even if there are people, they may not be able to see us in the dark..."

Another black shadow also added the topic: "Yes, we have a scout behind us. Even if there are detective teams of dog traitors in the village, it will take at least several hours to find a public security army thirty miles south..."

"Shut up, save some effort to run away..."

"Oh, we analyze the enemy situation anytime and anywhere according to the instructor's requirements. You're just typing..."

Big Dog seemed a little afraid of this subordinate who also came from the National Army: "Believe it or not, I will let you be the vanguard in the front line?"

"Forget it, Big Dog is the platoon leader at least, so give him some face..."

The light in the wilderness sky ahead seems to have changed a little.

Not long after, the scout who disguised himself as a scout team hurried back on his bicycle.

Come to Dagou and stop on one leg: "Report to the platoon leader and arrest six traitors in the team..."

"Did you ask if the situation is there?"

"Those traitors said that the command has not changed... There is a town about ten miles ahead, with built-in ditches everywhere outside the town, and artillery towers and strongholds everywhere..."

"How is the enemy's troops deployed?"

"According to his tongue, the Japanese drew puppet troops to sweep the siege, leaving less than half of the troops they usually have..."

"I'm finally here to my destination..." The big dog breathed a sigh of relief and stopped: "Everyone has it, stop moving forward, rest on the spot for half an hour..."

"Big Dog, if you get rid of the Japanese chasing behind you, those artillery towers will be a good place to hide..."

"I'll go into the town later and you'll make a mistake... I don't believe Tang if I don't let you sweep the cottage for a month..."

"I used to be an Imperial Army, so do I still need to perform?"

"I'm so shining on the flashlight, hurry up and calculate our current location based on the speed of the march..." The big dog pulled out the map and spread it on the ground.

"Hehe, there are coordinates and speed. As long as we don't go astray, calculating the position is not a big deal..."

After two or three minutes, the coordinate position is calibrated.
Chapter completed!
