Squad Leader Wang was dumbfounded for a moment. He never expected that Captain Hu's answer was so simple.
The answer in my impression should be a passionate performance, at least to make a vow, or to cheer up, talk about a goal, or make a guarantee to complete the task...
But there was nothing.
Until, a tall bear walked into the crowd. On his dark and ugly face, there were a few traces of sweat stains. As the fat on his face trembled, the ugly face seemed to be indifferent to anything. The look of concern.
When he came to Hu Yi, he sat down uninvited and looked at the girl standing dumbly on one side, and then at the red-faced and thick-necked spy squad leader. He felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, but immediately stretched his neck and stared at those ugly triangular eyes. Chao Wang Liujin, the squad leader, asked: "Huh? What the hell are you doing here so early in the morning?"
Squad leader Wang didn't answer and took a deep breath: "It turns out to be Platoon Leader Luo. What's the matter with you coming here?"
The bear spat to the side: "Well, what can I do? I just finished my sleep. That idiot Wang Xiaosan made porridge so thin that he couldn't even squeeze it between his teeth... Tang Dagou, your grandma's , playing secerium there early in the morning, scared away all the chickens I caught in my dream, you have to compensate me at some point!"
Such an answer completely disturbed the serious atmosphere. Tang Dagou sighed to himself for such shameless words and was stunned for a moment.
"...what the hell..."
"Huh? Do you want to default on your debt?"
"Squad leader, stop talking, this is business!" Xu Xiao, who was next to him, quickly ran to Luo Fugui to persuade him.
"Young man, look, aren't these people just bored and have something serious to do? Is the candy I gave you delicious?"
"Squad leader, I beg you, please stop talking. Okay?"
"Well, then tell me, what are you talking about now?"
"Researching the next step!"
"Well, this is a big deal. Then you can study it slowly, and I'll go get some sleep." After saying that, he took off a few baggage, shouldered the machine gun, and walked out of the crowd.
After such confusion, the atmosphere was indeed less tense.
Hu Yi took out the map, and immediately, a circle of heads surrounded him.
Squad Leader Wang had been busy all night, he didn't sleep a wink all night, and he was really exhausted mentally. He stared carefully at the slit-eyed Company Commander Hu in front of him under the brim of his curved military hat, waiting for him to speak.
After a while, a voice sounded.
"I've thought about it carefully. Our mission this time is to inquire about information. Then, we don't have to confront the Japanese. I think there are... three ways!"
"Which three?" Liu Jin's squad leader's eyes lit up.
"First, let's go directly north. According to what was said in the telegram, our place is only more than seventy miles away from the cross ridge where the headquarters battle was last reported. If we take the main road, I guess it will definitely not work. We have to change Taking the small road, although we didn't find any Japanese along the way, it still takes half a day."
"What about the second method? Uh, no, you haven't finished the first method yet! Just walking doesn't seem to be useful, right?" The squad leader Liujin was the most anxious. He used to go to the headquarters often, and there were many of them there. acquaintance.
Hu Yi did not add anything to the first method. He looked up at him and pointed to a point on the map: "Our current location is here, between the division headquarters and Shiziling. To the east is Dongjiagou Village. Your special agent squad will send people soon. Go and have a look. It would be best if you can contact the guerrillas and find a fellow countryman to lead the way. Of course, if you have walked this road, that would be the best!
The second way is to go to the headquarters, but I think it is meaningless. If you go directly to the headquarters, you will have to walk at least dozens of miles of mountain roads! Moreover, the headquarters has long been moved east, so I think this road is unnecessary. "
"I agree with you, there really isn't much point in going to headquarters."
"So, the best route now is that we slowly head towards Nan Aipu. Judging from the map, it should only be more than fifty miles away. If it doesn't rain, we should be able to reach it by almost tonight."
"But what should I do if I encounter a Japanese on the road?"
"It doesn't matter. If we encounter the Japs with few people, we will fight. If there are many people, we will hide in the mountains and wait slowly. The Japs enter the mountains from the north. We already knew that when we were in the division, and there are several Japanese troops entering the mountains. Wan, since there are so many people, their supply will definitely not be so smooth. They can't stay and the headquarters has been surrounded by breaking out to the east. Then, the Japanese will not invest too many troops in the blockade of the periphery. The most important thing is, The Japs must be following the breakout troops from the headquarters, so there shouldn't be many Japs on this road.
If there are people who can escape, then there is only the mountain road to the south. If we can meet them, it will not be difficult to find out the news. Even if there are ghosts chasing us, they should be following us. If that is the case, we, maybe , there is still a chance to save some people! "
"I agree with you, but can you report this plan to your division?" Liu Jin clearly came out to look at the Ninth Company, even though this Ninth Company didn't look like much... Even though nearly half of the Ninth Company were The security forces surrendered.
He was just used to the habit of reporting before taking action.
"Then how do you report it? Send a telegram to let everyone know that we are running north?" Hu Yi asked unhurriedly.
"I don't mean that. How about we leave now?" Liujin was worried about the headquarters and wished he could immediately join the battle to defend the headquarters.
"If you insist on reporting, I have no problem with it, but you can't send a telegram. You can send your people back."
"That won't work. We only have this few people. We don't have enough troops. If we can get one more person, we will have more strength. Otherwise, we can just send a message in the telegram: "Nan Aipu, six pounds special group". You can definitely tell that this is our mobile advertisement. I don’t think the Japanese are that powerful, and they can judge our actions with just these few words. Besides, we only have so many people, so I don’t know if the Japanese can even take a look."
The girl next to him finally spoke up: "This method is okay. With so many telegrams, who except the division knows that we sent them? Besides, it is impossible for the Japanese to know our location!"
"I don't want to have anything to do with this matter. You can make up your mind. If you insist on reporting it, I will take the responsibility myself and report it." Hu Yi made up his mind. In fact, this plan is very good. If there are really Japs, he can report it at any time. Hidden in the mountains, you don't have to fight the Japanese. As for the Japanese behind you, they will definitely go to the Cross Ridge, because the final battle will be at the Cross Ridge, Nan Aipu, in the middle of the headquarters Wujun Temple and the Cross Ridge.
Liu Jin stared at Hu Yi for a long time with a slanted eyebrow, and suddenly said: "I didn't like you at first because you were from the National Army... but those people in the division said that you are with the Japanese." You must be blind!"
Hu Yi still frowned and stared at Wang Liujin for a long time, and suddenly said: "I don't need people to like me, because the people who like me have changed several times!"
The scene became quiet, and only Hu Yi, who had his head lowered, was still picking up a finger-long pencil and continued to mark on the map. Liu Jin looked at the marks on the map and felt that Captain Hu was working on the map in front of him. That level must be higher or lower than that of his own company commander.
