"Of course it's no problem! Who are we, Old Li? Are you afraid of some little devils pulling baggage? Well, this time it's an ambush, and I've seen the terrain over there, it's a serious good terrain! So, you guerrillas, this time

Follow the Seventh Company and take the elm cannon with you!" Li Yunlong said.

"That's no problem! Although our elm cannon is a little slow to reload, it is definitely a good thing for melee ambush! When should we leave?" Hu Changyi asked.

"Leave now! Leave your tools and other tools to the comrades at the brigade to carry with you. Lao Xing will also follow the brigade. This time, you will bring combat weapons and all ammunition.

That’s good! Oh, by the way, your doctor is also going to find a place to serve as our frontline medical station.”

"Okay, that's all there is to do. Pack it up quickly and set off in half an hour!" Li Yunlong left the location of the guerrillas after finishing his explanation.

"Captain, did you hear the order? This time we are the supply force to fight the Japanese again, and it's time to make a fortune again! Oh, by the way, I brought those explosive bags, telephone lines and telephones, iron plates and those

Take the clay tablet with you as well, don't leave it behind!" Hu Changyi said.

"Okay, whatever you say is what you say! Comrades, prepare to fight! Lao Fan, prepare dry food and bring those steamed buns you just steamed! Lao Xing, distribute ammunition, this time each person will receive 60 rounds of ammunition!" Zhao Fengnian hurriedly said

Call the guerrillas to get busy...

Half an hour later, the guerrillas were fully equipped, and each guerrilla was given enough bullets. Even two veterans, Lao Lai and Lao Zhou, received an exceptional amount of 80 rounds of 6.5mm Tomosaka rifle bullets.

, the two of them were so beautiful that their noses were bubbling.

"Lao Zhou, I said that I came to the guerrillas, right? They say that the guerrillas have made a fortune recently and have a lot of bullets, but I didn't expect so many!" Lao Lai came to Lao Zhou and said.

"That's right! Not only are there more bullets, but there are also bullet boxes, which is much more convenient! Lao Lai, our shooting skills have never been comparable between the two of us before. Now that we have enough bullets, let's compare?" Lao Zhou

He said with the bullet boxes lined up on his waist.

"Let's compete, who's afraid of whom? We all have our own thing to do, and we can't cheat!" said the old man.

"As long as you don't cheat, I will definitely have no problem here!" Lao Zhou said.

"Don't worry, I will never cheat!" I promised, patting my chest.

After the team was organized, they immediately headed towards Qigen Village. It was afternoon now, and by the time they reached Qigen Village, it would be evening, and they could just set up an ambush zone.

Qigen Village is located in Donghui Town, Pingding County, Yangquan City. It was originally an inconspicuous small mountain village in the Taihang Mountains. Although Qigen Village is also on the main road of mutual communication between Shanxi and Hebei provinces, it is because of Jingxing, Niangziguan and Jiuguan.

, the existence and location of the new pass is not that important.

But whether it matters or not is not decided by us, but by the Japanese.

Now that the Japanese are heading west from here and leaving their baggage in Chaiyu Town, Qigen Village has become important.

In the evening of the 25th, Li Yunlong arrived here with the Third Battalion, the First Platoon of the Special Agent Company, and the Independent Platoon of the Third Battalion.

"Seventh company commander, your company and the guerrillas are guarding the south side of the valley west of the village. The terrain there is more open, and your elm cannon can also be effective!" Li Yunlong said.

"Understood, Commander! The Seventh Company Commander is following me!" The Seventh Company Commander led the Seventh Company team towards the west.

"Guerrillas, let's go too!" Zhao Fengnian called to the guerrillas to follow the Seventh Company.

"Alright, for the rest of us, we are ambushing you on the front line of Qigen Village, including the platoon of the special agent company. You will be on guard to the east and provide intelligence support to the troops. As soon as the fighting starts here, the Japanese will flee in the direction of Chaiyu Town.

Just stop them for me!" Li Yunlong said.

"Understood! People in the platoon, follow me!" A platoon leader led the team toward the east.

"Tsk, tsk, the terrain here, if we don't fight an ambush here, we will be sorry!" While Li Yunlong was arranging the task, Hu Changyi was also observing the terrain of Qigen Village.

Before, they acted directly heading south along the Gantao River, and it was still at night, so Hu Changyi didn't observe the terrain here. Now, looking at it, this is a natural ambush site!

The road near Qigen Village is only two meters wide. To the north of the road is a deep ditch of more than ten meters, and to the south is a ridge of more than ten meters high. The ridge is covered with dense weeds and dense trees, which is very suitable for Tibetans.

This kind of terrain... well, the Japanese deserved bad luck.

"Changyi, Changyi, come here quickly!" When Hu Changyi arrived at the ambush position, the seventh company commander came to Hu Changyi with enthusiasm.

"Company commander, what's the matter?" Hu Changyi asked with a salute.

"Changyi, look at the terrain here, where is the appropriate position for our elm cannon?" the seventh company commander asked a little embarrassed.

"Look, you made this thing, so you have the most say, don't you? Last time at Changshengkou, our elm cannon was a little less effective. Can you help arrange it? Don't worry, we captured it this time

As long as it's for our Seventh Company, you can pick whatever you want!" the Seventh Company Commander promised.

"Needless to say, the issue of spoils of war has to be decided by the Brigade and Regiment Headquarters! But the direction of your elm cannon... Let me take a look and arrange it later, and try to get a salvo for the Japanese.

Walk most of the way!”

Hu Changyi accepted the job, and then led the Seventh Company and a few people from the guerrillas to walk more than three hundred meters west, and then calculated a more suitable arrangement position in his mind.

"Okay, listen to my orders: the first gun position is at this position! Look at the line I drew with the engineer shovel? Dig along here and put the first gun in! Be careful not to damage the environment.

Now, after digging, put the excavated weeds back over the cannon! Zhao Dabao, come over and take charge here."

Under Hu Changyi's arrangement, a total of 27 elm cannons were neatly buried on the ridge on the west side of the road, leaving only the muzzles and fuses exposed. Moreover, the muzzles were also covered with fresh weeds.

camouflage.

After doing all this, it was already dark, and Hu Changyi returned to the position where the guerrillas were ambushing.

The guerrillas have a total of 25 people. Excluding Xing Dezheng, who moved with the brigade headquarters, and Dr. Sun, who is hiding in a ravine in the south as a field doctor, there are still 25 people left.

Next to Hu Changyi were still Li Tieniu and Tailor Chen, the powerful pair with guns blazing. Next to them were Zhou Changfa and Wang Xiaoer, and next to them were Zhao Ergou and the others.
Chapter completed!
