Wang Jin was very calm. He looked in the direction where the enemy was coming and said, "It doesn't matter. The Japanese and puppet troops didn't expect us to appear here. There is a ravine between these two mountains with dense vegetation. Our number Not much, so I hid there and waited for the Japanese and puppet troops to leave before leaving."
Li Jiming looked at the ravine pointed by Wang Jin and said, "This is too dangerous. The Japanese troops passed by both sides of this ravine. If they find us, no one can escape if they are surrounded in the ravine."
Wang Jin said decisively: "The most dangerous places are often the safest. I believe the enemy never dreamed that we would be hiding under their noses."
Li Jiming was infected by Wang Jin's calmness. He nodded and said, "Okay. Let's do it then." After that, he took the lead and walked down the mountain, joined Li Qiulin and others, and then the team got into the small ravine below. .
Not long after, a large number of Japanese and puppet troops came over. They climbed up the hills on both sides of the valley. Many Japanese and puppet troops marched along the narrow path halfway up the mountain. The special forces and guerrillas were hiding in the valley. They clung to the rocks and used bushes for cover. Some even used broken branches to cover themselves.
There were many Japanese and puppet troops, and they were so close that the team members could hear their movements clearly. While the enemy troops were marching, some stepped on the rocks on the roadside, and those rocks rolled down the hillside and down the valley. The special forces and guerrillas were hiding below and could not dodge because they did not dare to move at all.
A rock rolled down and hit a guerrilla on the head, killing him on the spot. Another special operations team member was hit on the back by a fist-sized stone, which made his eyes black and spit out a mouthful of blood. He almost fainted. He endured the pain and did not dare to speak.
With so many Japanese and puppet troops passing by on both sides, Li Qiulin also felt a little nervous. Their position is really too bad. If they are discovered by the Japanese and puppet troops, they will definitely die. Li Qiulin had experienced countless dangers, and he felt that none of them were worse than his current situation. He is an underground party member and an atheist. At this moment, many gods suddenly popped up in his mind, such as the Jade Emperor, the Earth God, and the Kitchen God. He secretly prayed in his heart that these gods would bless the little devil's blindness.
Maybe these gods really worked, and the Japanese and puppet troops didn't see the guerrillas so close. This is not because they are all blind, but because all the Japanese and puppet troops did not expect that the guerrillas would come in their direction and hide under their noses. Because they had already expected that those damn guerrillas would turn their backs in this direction and escape far away.
There were a large number of Japanese and puppet troops, and the mountain roads were rugged, so their movements were very slow. It took more than half an hour for the Japanese and puppet troops to finally pass. The special forces and guerrillas still did not dare to move. It was not until the backs of the Japanese and puppet troops could no longer be seen that Li Qiulin gave the order to start taking action.
There was no road in the ravine and the movement was very difficult, but in order not to expose their target, they continued to walk along the valley and out of the mountain.
The guerrillas finally came down the mountain. They found a dozen military vehicles parked on the road ahead, and several Japanese soldiers were guarding these vehicles. Obviously those Japanese and puppet troops just came in these vehicles.
In order to protect the safety of the guerrillas staying in the mountains, Li Qiulin decided to attack these Japanese troops, seize these vehicles, and then attract the attention of the Japanese and puppet troops.
The terrain here is relatively flat and the field of vision is very wide. It is difficult for Li Qiulin and others to approach the Japanese and puppet troops covertly within 200 meters.
After careful observation, Li Qiulin found that there was only one squad of Japanese soldiers left behind, and he thought about how to kill them.
Li Jiming borrowed a telescope from the special operations team and he could see clearly. He saw that the Japanese army only had one squad. He looked at the terrain and saw that it was difficult to approach the Japanese and puppet troops directly. He suggested that he simply launch a strong attack and rush over to eliminate them. enemy.
Li Qiulin would never fight such a reckless battle. Although the Japanese army only has one squad, their combat effectiveness must not be underestimated. Launching a strong attack in such open terrain will definitely result in the casualties of many special forces and guerrillas. There are only about 30 people in their team. Each one is very valuable and cannot be charged blindly.
Li Qiulin thought for a while and said: "The Japanese and puppet troops didn't expect us to be here. I think we should use the old method of approaching the enemy in disguise."
Li Qiulin and others are well versed in disguised Japanese troops. This matter is still left to the special operations team. Li Jiming led the guerrillas to wait where they were, while Li Qiulin led the special forces to take a detour to take the enemy's retreat.
More than an hour later, the Japanese troops guarding vehicles on the highway saw a group of Japanese troops coming from the direction of the town, although they had received notification from their superiors that the guerrillas might disguise themselves as Japanese troops. However, the situation was different at this time. A large number of Japanese and puppet troops had just passed by, and they firmly believed that the guerrillas had been surrounded. Even if they were not surrounded, they would have already escaped far away and would never appear here.
Today, there are many Japanese and puppet troops participating in the encirclement and suppression of guerrillas. They come from different units and they are not familiar with each other. It is normal for some Japanese troops to come from the direction of the town. So when they saw this group of Japanese troops coming over, they didn't pay much attention.
Li Qiulin, disguised as a Japanese Army Major, led the special forces team members to the highway. He saw that the locations of the Japanese Army stations were very scattered, and it would be very difficult to eat them all at once, so he did the same old trick and used As a major in the Japanese army, he asked Commander Cao of the Japanese army to gather all his soldiers.
Unexpectedly, the Japanese Army Commander Cao was very arrogant. He thought that Li Qiulin and others were going to cross the road and go into the mountains to search. They were not in the same army and they did not know each other. However, Li Qiulin asked him to gather his soldiers together. This move is somewhat unreasonable.
He did not carry out Li Qiulin's order, but instead made a gesture to ask his soldiers to be on guard.
These Japanese soldiers were in the same squad. They got along day and night. They were familiar with the Japanese Army Commander Cao's gestures and immediately understood what he meant. They immediately took off their rifles from their shoulders, loaded the bullets, and went to find cover to prepare for battle.
Seeing the actions of the Japanese army, Li Qiulin knew that he must not give them a chance to react. He took out his Browning pistol and shot the Japanese army commander Cao head-on, killing him. The special operations team members who had already prepared for battle had already focused on their targets when they came over. When they saw Li Qiulin taking action, they immediately opened fire and quickly killed most of the Japanese troops.
Two Japanese troops stood behind the vehicle. When they heard the gunfire, they immediately became alert, hid behind the vehicle, and shot at Li Qiulin and others.
The special operations team members immediately opened fire at the two Japanese soldiers to suppress their firepower. Wang Jin and two special operations team members used the cover of the vehicle to quickly approach the two Japanese troops.
They saw two Japanese soldiers hiding at the back of the car and couldn't hit them with rifles, so they took out grenades and threw them at the two Japanese soldiers.
"Boom, boom, boom", three grenades exploded in succession, and the two Japanese soldiers were blown to pieces. The battle is over.
On the way down the mountain from the guerrillas, Li Jiming saw fighting taking place at the foot of the mountain, so he led his team members and rushed down from the mountain. By the time they arrived, the battle was over.
They immediately went to seize the weapons and ammunition of the dead Japanese soldiers. Some guerrillas climbed onto the truck and screamed with excitement when they saw the large amount of ammunition and other supplies in the truck.
Li Jiming was also very happy. He climbed into the truck and smiled, looking like a nouveau riche.
Li Qiulin knew that he could not stay here for a long time, so he asked the special forces and guerrillas to quickly gather the supplies from other vehicles into two trucks. In addition to these two trucks, they poured gasoline drawn from the fuel tank on the other trucks, and then drove the two trucks and drove the guerrillas northeastward on the highway. Of course, I didn’t forget to light the gasoline before leaving.
A dozen trucks on the road were set on fire, and the long convoy was like a fire dragon, which was very spectacular. Such a scene was nothing new to the special operations team members, but the guerrillas found it very novel and pointed happily.
Li Jiming focused all his attention on the ammunition and supplies in the carriage. This much ammunition was enough for his guerrillas to use for a year. What he is worried about now is how to transport the ammunition back to the guerrillas' base. Obviously, they are currently fleeing for their lives. It is impossible to escape the tracking of the Japanese and puppet troops with so much ammunition and supplies. But just asking him to give up, he would definitely refuse.
He stood up and looked around. When the truck passed through a hilly area, he knocked on the cab to indicate that it should stop.
Li Qiulin poked his head out and asked, "Captain Li, what happened?"
Li Jiming said: "We have so much ammunition and supplies in our car that we cannot leave them to the Japanese. We can't take these things away, so we might as well find a place to hide them until the Japanese and puppet troops withdraw in the future. We Come here and move back.”
In fact, Li Qiulin also meant the same thing. Since Captain Li brought it up, he got out of the cab, called all the special forces and guerrillas to get out of the car, and unloaded all the supplies from the car. Led by Captain Li, they reached a hillside on one side, found a hidden place, and hid the ammunition and supplies.
Li Qiulin and others continued to move forward in the car. After about half an hour, they discovered a Japanese checkpoint ahead. The strength of the Japanese army is still one squad, with one crooked machine gun and one grenade launcher. They saw two military vehicles approaching, and someone stood in the middle of the road and motioned for them to stop for inspection.
The special forces and guerrillas immediately prepared for battle.
In order to attract the enemy and cover Xu Dalong and the guerrillas staying in the mountains, Li Qiulin decided to destroy the Japanese checkpoint again.
Just when Li Qiulin decided to take action, he suddenly found two more Japanese military vehicles driving over not far ahead, full of heavily armed Japanese troops.
The situation is really bad. At this time, Li Qiulin and others were relatively close to the Japanese military checkpoint. It was impossible for them to stop and wait for the Japanese troops on the opposite side to pass by before going to the checkpoint. That would immediately arouse the suspicion of the Japanese troops at the checkpoint. But among them, only the special forces members were wearing Japanese military uniforms, and the guerrillas were all wearing their own civilian clothes, so it was impossible to get through. As soon as the Japanese army inspects them, their secrets will be exposed immediately.
Once the two sides exchange fire, the two military vehicles full of Japanese troops can rush over and go directly into the battle. Facing so many Japanese troops, it is impossible for Li Qiulin and others to quickly annihilate them, and there will definitely be fierce fighting between the two sides. They did not know the situation here and did not know whether there were large groups of Japanese and puppet troops nearby.
At this time, Li Qiulin and others had already walked out of the mountains. The terrain here was relatively flat, making it very difficult to get rid of the Japanese army. If the special forces alone were easy to handle, they also brought with them the guerrillas. These guerrillas did not have enough to eat, did not wear warm clothes all year round, and were relatively thin. In terms of physical strength alone, they could not compare with those of the Japanese army. It is almost impossible for them to get rid of the enemy's tracking, and it is very likely that they will be surrounded by a large number of Japanese and puppet troops. Under such terrain conditions, the only outcome waiting for them was the complete destruction of the entire army.
what to do? what to do? The special forces members were all sweating, especially the guerrillas, who all looked pale. They usually take advantage of the favorable conditions in the deep mountains and dense forests, or sneak attack the Japanese and puppet troops at night. This is the first time they encounter so many Japanese troops in the plains. Everyone didn't know what to do. They could only prepare for battle and fight with the Japanese.
Li Qiulin is a mature and experienced excellent commander. Even so, he can't help but feel a little tricky when encountering this situation. But he quickly calmed down, and several countermeasures quickly flashed through his mind.
He believed that the target could not be exposed now. He must find a way to get past the enemy's checkpoint, wait until the two military vehicles full of Japanese troops drove past, and then attack the enemy's checkpoint. How to do this and avoid arousing the suspicion of the Japanese army? While Li Qiuling continued to think, the truck they were riding in could not stop and continued to drive towards the Japanese checkpoint.
Seeing that the enemy's checkpoint was less than 50 meters away, Japanese soldiers were already standing in the middle of the road, preparing to intercept and inspect them. At this time, two military vehicles full of Japanese troops on the opposite side were less than a few hundred meters away from the checkpoint. When it was almost gone, Li Qiulin made a prompt decision and ordered the driver to stop.
After the car stopped, he said to the driver: "Get out of the car quickly, pretend there is something wrong with the car, and go check it out."
The special forces member who was driving understood what Li Qiulin meant. He immediately got out of the car, stood in front of the car, lifted the engine cover, and pretended to check. And Li Qiulin also came over. He reprimanded the driver with great dissatisfaction and asked him to seize the time to solve the problem. (End of chapter)
