The mountain breeze blows by in waves, and from time to time fluffy yellow sand dances, casting a halo over the dusk.
The battle was basically one-sided. The security team ran faster and quickly reached the desolate dirt bag. The soldiers fell carelessly in the grass, unwilling to get up again.
Cleaning the battlefield naturally involved Luo Fugui, who was the first to rush into the pile of corpses and wounded soldiers.
While flipping through it, he said casually: "Cut off your dick, you are so unlucky, you were caught twice in one day!"
"Mule, damn you, please loosen the rope quickly." Qianjiu finally let go of his worries.
"Wait a minute... Oops... His grandma's guys are all extremely rich." Luo Fugui took off a watch from the squad leader's wrist.
A stack of oceans went into his pocket.
Zeng Nansheng was nervous and fired twice, but was hit in the arm by a retaliatory bullet. A soldier was bandaging the grinning man.
"Fox, you didn't seem to have fired a single shot just now?" The girl put her little hands on her hips and looked at Hu Yi in surprise.
"I'm afraid of hurting Zhangjiu." Hu Yi replied calmly.
"Nonsense! I don't believe it." The girl always felt that something was wrong.
The two of them were talking and came to Qianjiu who was still lying in the ditch. Hu Yi drew out his bayonet and cut the rope that tied Qianjiu.
"Prodigal son." Zeng Nansheng said in a confused manner.
"What the hell do you mean by that?" Tang Dagou next to him was loading bullets into his gun.
"Can't the rope be untied? Why should it be cut?" Zeng Nansheng said angrily.
"What the hell..." Tang Dagou had a black string on his head. The man named Zeng even took the rope so seriously. Tubalu was really a poor guy whose crotch jingled.
"Boss Hu, I appreciate your kindness this time." Zhanjiu, who was untied, climbed up and thanked Hu Yi, who was also disgraced.
"Monkey has already told us the situation, and you did this because you were helping us." Hu Yi frowned: "Do you know their detailed origins?"
Changjiu didn't even think about it, and said bitterly: "This is a group of national troops who were defeated. After the Japanese came, they went into the mountains and fell grass. At first, they used the banner of anti-Japanese. After being suppressed by the Japanese several times, they changed their name to Xu." I got on the line, got a security group number, and usually did business with the people in the mountains and the bandits, almost... half a puppet army."
"They also sent supplies to the Eighth Route Army in the mountains?"
"They only recognize money but not people. They are similar to bandits. The blockhouse over there is where they do business and deliver goods to Xu."
"Doing business? Aren't there Japanese instructors in the turret? They don't care?"
"Think about it, how can those really capable Japs work as instructors in the artillery towers? It's not just the same as making money." After Gan Jiu finished speaking, he hesitated: "Aren't you short of money? Otherwise, let's go and do it now. Has Gou’s lair been served?”
"No need." Hu Yi flatly refused.
"I'll give you three gold bars!" Qianjiu felt that he was almost tricked by Gou this time. If he didn't take revenge, it would be difficult to understand the hatred in his heart.
"You are overthinking. Do you think we will do these unprincipled things at the expense of soldiers' lives for money?"
"Five!" The one who spoke was the girl with big eyes next to her: "The seizure belongs to us."
Chojiu Daxi: "Yes, but I have a condition."
"Are you telling me the conditions?" Hu Yi said with a dark face.
"Hey, don't worry, this matter is beneficial to both of us. I can go east to the railway to get things to sell to you." Zaijiu said anxiously: "Fair price!"
"Do you know where they are stationed?"
"There is a hill more than 20 miles to the west, but that place is not easy to fight." Zaijiu has been running around a lot during this time, so he is no stranger to these places.
On the hilltop, Wang Liujin, who was holding a telescope, suddenly shouted: "A group of people came out of the gun tower, we have to evacuate quickly!"
Hu Yi ran to the dirt bag. Through the binoculars, he saw a group of dozens of security troops who had already crossed the suspension bridge.
"Captain Hu, we can't fight with this small number of people. There are too many security soldiers guarding the gun towers. It's a pity that our troops were not brought over." Wang Liujin turned to Hu Yi and suggested with regret.
Now that all the leaders of the Ninth Company are here, plus one and two people, there are fifteen in total. The two injured guys in the security group have long been beaten to death by Park Buhuan.
There were not enough bicycles, so Qianjiu took the initiative to ask for running.
Zeng Nansheng, who was familiar with the road, rode his bicycle back to notify Ma Liang and led his troops back from enemy-occupied areas overnight as a backup.
Leaving behind the corpses on the ground and the blood that filled the air, facing the darkness, the group set off westward and quickly disappeared into the night.
...
A fire was lit in a mountain col, and more than thirty people dressed as farmers were cooking porridge.
Far away from the fire, four people were talking.
A militiaman returning from reconnaissance was reporting the situation to Yang Deshi and Captain Liu: "...I used to go to the mountain village. There were two roads to go there. There were hidden stakes of the security group at the foot of the mountain. The number and firepower of the enemy on the mountain were unclear. They went there in the morning. Dozens of people have left, so I guess there aren’t many people up there.”
Another militiaman hesitated: "I know that the regiment seems to have arranged internal agents in the village, saying they are preparing to recruit people from this security group."
"Why didn't I know? Why didn't you tell me earlier."
"Didn't you just come here in the afternoon?" The militiaman felt aggrieved.
Yang Deshi hesitated. After all, this was the defense area of the supplementary regiment. Since the superiors had arranged for the recruitment, but the previous Japanese raids, maybe they couldn't spare the manpower and energy. Wouldn't it be better if he could recruit the bandits?
"They are obviously bandits who colluded with the Japanese. Since we want to develop a base here and wipe them out, it can be regarded as a good thing for the people."
Captain Liu, who was drinking porridge, waited for Yang Deshi to finish speaking, and then said: "County Chief Yang, I agree with you, just tell me how to fight."
Yang Deshi looked around with satisfaction: "We built a stronghold. First, we have a base. Second, we can at least get a batch of food to help the people who fled here. Third, with food, we will not have to worry about recruiting." Once we have troops, the base area can develop and grow!"
"Maybe County Magistrate Yang is discerning, so let's attack the security group's headquarters tonight?" Captain Liu couldn't help but look at Yang Deshi with admiration. The cadres from the division are really good.
Yang Deshi looked sideways at Captain Liu: "Then let's talk about tonight's action. Originally, Captain Liu has the final say on this military matter. How about you talk about it first and we can add to it later?"
"Hey, County Magistrate Yang, you have been an instructor before, so it's you who have to deal with this matter." Captain Liu didn't dare to play tricks on others, so he quickly let the leader speak first.
Yang Deshi said politely, "It's up to you to arrange the battle!"
"County Magistrate Yang, you have to take charge of this matter." Captain Liu quickly declined.
"Didn't you follow the training team and fight against Japanese ambush and harassment?"
"I'm pretty good at harassing me, but I haven't really done anything like this. It's up to you."
Yang Deshi thought for a moment: "I'm not polite. It's already dark now. Let me tell you my opinion first. First of all, the scouts didn't figure out the details of the mountain clearly, but there weren't many people on the mountain, so let's think about it first. How do you deal with the bandits at the bottom of the mountain, then go directly up the mountain, and arrange for another squad to go up from the back mountain path, what do you think?"
"I think there should be no problem." Captain Liu thought for a while: "That's it, we let the scouts find a way to touch the sentry, and the two teams... the two classes went directly up the mountain, but the time is not easy to coordinate.
"That doesn't matter. The bandits in the back mountain must have set up sentries. We won't care about the front mountain and the back mountain. The team from the place where the gun was fired first will attack. The other side will also attack with all their strength after hearing the gunshot. We will double-team in front and behind, and we will definitely be able to defeat them in one fell swoop. .”
"Then, should we divide the work?" Captain Liu suggested.
"I'll attack the front mountain, and you take the people to the back mountain." Yang Deshi ordered decisively.
I used to fight a lot of big and small battles in the Independent Regiment. After each battle, I would sum up the combat experience. I still learned a lot from the 1st, 2nd and 4th companies.
"There are risks in every battle, so we have to prepare a backup plan. If we can't win, we must conserve our strength and gather at the blockade blockhouse." Yang Deshi knows that the enemy's situation is unknown, and the battle is not 100% certain. To say that you must win, think about defeat before you win.
"County Magistrate Yang, you are so thoughtful." Captain Liu couldn't help but admire him.
Several people had stars in their eyes. When they heard this, they all looked at the new county magistrate with admiration. He was capable of both literary and military skills, and the future development of the base area was just around the corner.
The soldiers beside the fire all finished drinking porridge and began to line up.
County Magistrate Yang Da was talking about this mission. He spoke with great passion and made vigorous gestures with his fists. He was so arrogant.
The soldiers' blood was surging with enthusiasm.
