The cliffs on both sides block out the sun and moon, and there are two worlds above the cliff.

"When I first came here, I came down to take a look, and suddenly I felt a little spooky."

Yao Peng raised his head and looked at the cliff. There were only thick grass and shrubs struggling to survive on the edge of the reward.

What is happening above the cliff is unknown.

"Commander, it looks like there is an ambush here." Yao Pengju said.

Even if you haven't been in a war, you would still be afraid of robbers when you walk here.

What's more, the little devil is very experienced in marching and fighting.

"If the Japanese army wants to penetrate deep into our defense area, they don't need to open this road. The railway and highway to the south lead to Jinyang, which is dozens of kilometers to the south. The terrain to the north is more complicated than the road here. It is difficult to travel by wheelbarrow.

It’s hard to get up.”

During the Qing Dynasty, this road was an official road. It was a road opened by the rulers who mobilized a lot of people's power.

It is a road that has not been repaired for hundreds of years. Although it is difficult to walk, for the little devil, it is necessary to walk.

"That's right. What the troops guarding here are most worried about should not be the large Japanese troops, but the infiltration of small Japanese troops." Yao Pengju said.

The combat method Yao Pengju is best at is fighting in small groups.

"If the Japanese army wants to infiltrate, they will have to pass through many villages along the way. There are our militiamen in these villages, and they can play a big role."

As Zhao Zhiguo's defense area expanded, there were more and more villages in the defense area.

In every village, Zhao Zhiguo and others developed a militia.

Even if these militiamen do not fight, they can still serve as an early warning.

If a group of Japs passes through a nearby village, the militiamen will immediately contact the nearest regular army and cooperate with the regular troops to eliminate the Japs that have penetrated into their defense area.

"It's a good idea to have all the people as soldiers, but we are worried that there will be puppet troops among the little devils who will cooperate and pretend to be our troops." Yao Pengju said.

Yao Pengju and others were good at disguising themselves as Japanese troops and operating in enemy-occupied areas.

Although the little devils disdain to pretend to be the Chinese army, when the two armies are fighting and both want to kill each other, they will definitely not stick to the rules.

"You really have to be on guard against this!" Zhao Zhiguo said.

The local people are increasingly supportive of the troops of the First Military Division. Whenever they see troops wearing their uniforms, they will be particularly enthusiastic, and it is even difficult to distinguish the real ones from the fake ones.

"Commander, would you like to make some slight changes to our military uniforms? Just put an inconspicuous mark in a conspicuous place."

Yao Pengju suggested!

"No, no matter how obvious the mark is, it can't escape the eyes of the little devil!" Zhao Zhiguo said.

On the battlefield, their soldiers will inevitably die. As long as one of the little devils pays attention, they can still forge their military uniforms.

"The best thing to do is to raise awareness of vigilance. Let our propaganda personnel, starting from today, conduct propaganda in one village after another, with the only purpose of raising everyone's vigilance."

No matter how similar you are to imitating, it is impossible to imitate 80% of what a person looks like.

No matter how much the kid pretends to be a human being, he is still a wolf in sheep's clothing.

As long as you are more vigilant and ask a few questions, you can let the other party reveal their secrets.

"Old Yao, look here!"

Zhao Zhiguo stopped, glanced at the bottom of the cliff, and then looked up at the top of the cliff.

The towering cliffs are daunting!

"This is a good position to climb with bare hands," Yao Pengju said, "but the big rock above may not be able to bear my weight."

Loose rocks can fall at any time.

If it is disturbed by external forces, the climber may be in bad luck.

"The Japanese mortars and grenade launchers were quite accurate," Zhao Zhiguo said.

Japanese veterans were extremely skilled in handling mortars and grenade launchers.

If the Japanese army also discovered this location, they would directly use mortars to blow up the loose rocks to eliminate potential safety hazards.

"There is indeed a problem. How about we bury landmines down there?" Yao Pengju asked, "But falling rocks may trigger landmines."

"Make a note of this position. We'll take a look at the defense of this position later."

If there are enough manpower to defend the cliff, there is no need to worry.

The cliff has enough depth. Going from east to west, it is first low and then high, and then from high to low.

"I don't know how the Jinsui Army fell in the first place," Yao Pengju said.

The terrain here from the top of the cliff and from the bottom of the cliff are completely two worlds.

Yao Pengju even believed that Bingzhou City, which is taller and has thicker walls, would be more difficult to attack here.

The Jinsui Army did have a position here, but why it failed to block the Japanese attack became the biggest doubt in Yao Pengju's mind.

"The determination to resist Japan is the key to victory!" Zhao Zhiguo said, "As long as an army is determined and will never let an enemy pass, good terrain only provides the troops with a more comfortable fighting place."

Zhao Zhiguo thought of Tashan. There was no tower or mountain. The soldiers used their iron will to make it difficult for tens of thousands of enemies to move forward.

"Yes, people are the first element of victory, and the rest are just added value." Yao Pengju also thinks so.

Before Zhao Zhiguo and Yao Pengju left the area, Gao Cang and two soldiers chased them.

"If you want to know how the Jinsui Army fell, I can ask about it when Mr. Yan sends people to our station."

Gaining experience from failure will be more helpful for them to prepare defenses.

"Commander, you are trying to expose the shortcomings of the Jinsui Army!" Yao Pengju looked like he was ready to watch the fun.

"A person who is unwilling to accept his own failure will not succeed. An army that is unwilling to accept its own failure and gain reflection from it will inevitably disappear in the long river of history."

The army has been a symbol of the ruler's power since ancient times, and the failure of the army also means the gradual collapse of power.

"I understand the truth, but are you willing to tell me?" Yao Pengju said, "Mr. Yan is not a generous person. His subordinates..."

"Things" follow their owners! Yao Pengju believes that Mr. Yan's subordinates are also small-minded people.

"If they don't answer this question for me, I will really have to issue an eviction order." Zhao Zhiguo said with a smile.

When General Yan's people came to Zhao Zhiguo's defense zone, there was only one reason why Zhao Zhiguo could treat them politely, and that was because they were both Chinese.

Considering the conflict between Zhao Zhiguo and Mr. Yan, without this external war, they would definitely have a good fight.

"Commander...Commander..."

Gao Cang's voice came from behind. He and two soldiers were running towards Zhao Zhiguo panting.

"Guess what news Gao Cang brought." Zhao Zhiguo wanted to make a bet with Yao Pengju, "If you guessed it right, I'll treat you to something delicious."

"It won't be Mr. Yan's people who are coming, right?"

"I don't think so. It should be about the war in the south!" Zhao Zhiguo said.
