The small courtyard in the village is dilapidated.
From time to time the groans of the wounded were heard.
Wang Xiaosan watched two soldiers twisting a middle-aged man in front of him, frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
A soldier replied: "We were burying the seriously injured and killed soldiers outside the village. This guy suddenly jumped out of the darkness and said that he was someone arranged by the guerrillas to stay in the village."
"I am really a villager in the village..." the middle-aged man shouted: "I see you carrying the wounded into the village, and I plan to come to help you!"
Wang Xiaosan thought this was strange. After passing through so many villages in the past, all the villagers ran away.
The battle in the east was so fierce, but this man suddenly appeared...
This person's identity must be confirmed.
If Xu Xiaomei were here and she was familiar with this area, it might not be difficult to confirm this person's identity...
Wang Xiaosan looked at the man and thought for a while, then suddenly asked: "Do you know the guerrillas operating in this area?"
The middle-aged man's eyes lit up as his hands were being twisted: "I've heard of..."
"If you can name the female guerrillas in the team, I will believe you!"
The middle-aged man pretended to think for a while before speaking: "Uh... I heard that there is a man named Wang Yinzhi..."
"She went to the south the day before yesterday with another female guerrilla. Do you know who the other one is..."
"There seems to be a person named Xu..." The middle-aged man nodded, but deliberately did not say his full name.
"Is your name Xu Xiaomei? There is also a fool..."
The middle-aged man was overjoyed: "Yes, yes, that's great. Are you really the Eighth Route Army?"
In the joint area between the enemy and ourselves, there are often all kinds of people pretending to be the Eighth Route Army and even causing sabotage.
Seeing that Wang Xiaosan can accurately tell that there are women among the guerrillas, and Xue Xue knows that Xu Xiaomei and Er Lengzi are not spies sent by the reactionaries!
Wang Xiaosan also felt relieved: "Let him go...he is one of our own!"
The middle-aged man rubbed his arms and explained: "I am the militia liaison officer who stayed in the village. Before dark, I discovered that a group of reactionaries had arrived. Although we hate them, if they really had so many wounded people because they were fighting the Japanese, I would You still have to come out and help..."
Wang Xiaosan nodded: "Then tell me... can you find the guerrillas... or militia now?"
Suddenly hearing that Wang Xiaosan suddenly asked about the guerrillas, the middle-aged man was shocked: How careless!
What if... Wang Yinzhi and Xu Xiaomei were arrested by the reactionaries?
Originally, there were three people left in the village, but because of the ongoing fighting in the east valley, he sent the other two to report to their superiors. Now he is the only one in the village.
If you fall into the hands of the enemy, it doesn't matter if you die, but you have to find out where these people come from.
Thinking of this, his tone became a little unnatural: "I can't say for sure!"
Hearing the vigilant tone in this man's words, Wang Xiaosan said helplessly: "Don't worry, we still have to fight the Japanese. See if you can find some guerrillas to help us lift the wounded!"
"Uh..." It turned out that this person was not trying to find out about the guerrillas. The middle-aged man's mood suddenly changed: "Carry the wounded... The villagers in the mountains can also help..."
Wang Xiaosan was overjoyed: "Then you hurry up and call for help, but remember that you must come back before dawn and send all the wounded away!"
"This...keep it on me!"
Hearing the groans of the wounded from time to time in the village, the middle-aged man was still a little suspicious, but now he was completely relieved.
If these people are reactionaries disguised as the Eighth Route Army, there is no reason for him to carry wounded No. 100 to cause trouble!
As a hunter in the mountains, you can tell whether the injury is real or fake from the moans of the injured!
As for the little devils in the valley, they wouldn't do this at all.
Because, damn the little devils always crush them when they sweep, and when they enter a village, they rob, burn houses, and kill people!
Only then did both sides completely lose their guard.
Not long after, the two soldiers followed the middle-aged man to the north and quickly left the village.
...
The soldiers who were scouting on the mountain finally jumped out of the bushes, out of breath: "Report to the battalion commander...the Japs chasing...only more than a hundred...about half a squadron..."
Hu Yi was stunned for a moment: "Are you sure there is only half a squadron?"
The scout gasped: "There is a squadron... going south... The Japanese in the valley to the east... don't seem to be chasing them for the time being..."
Hu Yi looked at the mountain ridge under the moonlight and began to think.
The little devils have always been accustomed to killing everyone and will never let go of any bad guy in their eyes!
Only half of the squadron pursued them, which only meant that the Japs just wanted to hang behind the Ninth Battalion temporarily. After daybreak, the Japs in the valley would catch up sooner or later!
Panting, Wang Xiaosan came to the ditch where Hu Yi was temporarily hiding: "Batalion Commander..."
He told about the discovery of a contact left by the guerrillas in the village.
Hu Yi, who was thinking, felt something in his heart: "You said there are guerrillas in the north?"
"He knows Wang Yinzhi and Xu Xiaomei, there should be no problem with his identity!"
Hu Yi said no more.
Putting these events together carefully, it is not a big problem for the Nine Battalions to leave now.
The focus is on the wounded!
The Japanese have already caught up, and without the geographical advantage, a head-on fight with the Japanese is not an option.
Even if Jiuying has strong firepower, it is not cost-effective to replace one with another!
"Hey, I say, we'd better divide our troops now!" Qi Laoqi, who was next to him, suddenly said.
"What?"
"Look, we passed a fork in the road when we came here. If Luo Fugui is allowed to lead people south, then, with the temper of the little devil, he will definitely divide his troops to pursue us!"
Hu Yi asked back: "What if the Japanese don't divide their forces and only choose one direction?"
"Don't worry, let's talk about the enemy's division of troops first. If he divides his troops, we can directly kill half of the enemy team that is chasing us. Shouldn't it be a problem?"
Hu Yi nodded: "If you don't care about casualties, it's not a big problem..."
Old Bandit Qi was beaming: "Okay, let's say that the Japs don't divide their troops, so he has to choose a direction to pursue, right? According to the Japs' bad temper, they will usually choose to chase the team that blocks his attack. Do you have any objection?"
Hu Yi nodded: "It's very possible!"
"The mountain road is only so wide. It's impossible for the Japs to press on us. If they pursue Luo Fugui and leave, the Japs will definitely not let us go. Then, there is a high probability that the Japs behind will send a new team to pursue us. Compared with the Japs’ vanguard squad, the new Japs’ understanding of the situation in the Ninth Battalion is definitely not as good as that of the Japs’ squad…”
Hu Yi: "Yes, if the Japanese come over, they will at least increase the reconnaissance time!"
"Hey, let's just ambush him when the time comes! Even if we can't defeat the little devil, we can still block him all the way to the village on the mountainside to the north."
Hu Yi nodded: "I understand what you mean. Time is very important to the wounded soldiers now!"
"Go north to find guerrillas or villagers to help. First, we must ensure that we can drag the Japanese until dawn before the villagers arrive!"
The girl next to me interjected: "If we persist until dawn, the reinforcements will not arrive, and neither will the villagers..."
"Then, in order to prevent the entire army from being annihilated, those who can leave must leave. As for the wounded..." At this point, Qi Lao Bandit looked at Hu Yi.
Hu Yi's voice was low: "If there are still Japanese soldiers outflanking the mountain village from another direction, we won't even be able to hold on until dawn and have to leave..."
Old Bandit Qi consoled him: "Even if there is little hope, we must persevere until the last moment!"
Wang Xiaosan suddenly interjected: "Battal Commander, the wounded in the village all know the situation. They asked me to tell you that if you fight for one, you will be enough! If you fight for two... scratch one!"
After Luo Fugui's command, the team was playing vigorously.
Tom...
A grenade was fired high.
Amidst the screams of warnings from the Japanese observers, the grenade fell to the ground.
The Japanese who was squatting in the middle and firing immediately fell to the ground.
The expected explosion did not occur.
Amidst the chirping sound, a strange smell that choked my throat began to fill the air.
The observer screamed again: "Chemical bombs, pay attention to protection..."
The Japs near the landing began to scamper up the slope.
To avoid the smoke that was blown everywhere by the mountain wind after the chemical bomb explosion.
The eighth route of escape was not far away.
The leading Japanese second lieutenant immediately ordered a counterattack, and the hail of bullets rushed towards the blocking Eighth Route Army.
If the escaping Eighth Route Army hadn't had too much firepower, including four machine guns, two submachine guns, and numerous shell guns, and had to be on guard against Tubal Road's cunningly planted landmines, he would have led his men and charged forward.
The second lieutenant stubbornly believed that it was good to shoot from a long distance in this way. Tuba Road would not be able to escape, and the casualties among the warriors would not be large.
As long as the line of sight improves at dawn, the brigade behind can outflank them at any time.
No one can escape on Tubal Road!
Luo Fugui hid the stone and looked at the shooting flashes high on the hillside.
He shook the machine gun and aimed roughly at the crowd of Japanese.
Follow and pull the trigger.
Da da da...
The Czech machine gun began to beat, and bullets jumped out of the muzzle one after another, screaming towards the Japanese position.
Before the magazine was empty, a scream came from the sky.
Then the screams grew louder and more ear-piercing.
"Hidden... the little devil is firing!" Wen Wuquan, who acted as a temporary observer next to him, screamed at the top of his lungs.
The roar of the machine gun suppressed the scream of the grenade, so that Luo Fugui did not hear it at all.
Until Wenwuquan pulled Luo Fugui's arm and said, "Hide from the cannon!"
When he heard about hiding from cannons, Luo Fu threw away his machine gun and jumped into the ditch nearby.
boom...
The ground on the hillside seemed to tremble violently, instantly stirring up a large area of shrub branches and leaves.
The impact point of the bullet was no more than three meters away from Luo Fugui's machine gun position!
If Machine Gun Bear hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been seriously injured even if he didn't die!
Two figures huddled in a shallow ditch, holding their heads, choked and coughing in the smoke.
Luo Fugui's curses followed: "His grandma is really good at beating the enemy, both civil and military!"
"Company Commander... I'm fine..." Wen Wuquan, who was also coughing, got up from the ditch.
The voice of the correspondent coming from behind came: "Mules, the battalion commander ordered, retreat immediately, go to the fork in the road and run to the south to lure away the Japanese..."
Luo Fugui, who picked up the machine gun again, raised his dirty face and asked, "Boss Hu, didn't they go north?"
"The battalion commander has arranged to send the wounded to the village on the other side of the mountain. Now, we have to lead the enemy south..."
"Do you think the little devil is a fool? Just lead him away if you ask him to?"
"If you dare, tell the battalion commander this..."
"Your grandma...retreat...retreat alternately..."
The Eighth Route Army who was blocking the attack on the mountain ridge suddenly put away their guns and left, slipping directly down the hillside.
The pursuing Japanese soldiers stood in the moonlight and looked at each other. They had fought fiercely just now and even used grenade launchers.
Three died, and a few more were holding their wounds and groaning, while the health soldiers accompanying them were bandaging the bleeding!
The second lieutenant raised his hand and pointed down the hillside: "Pursue immediately!"
The dispersed team gathered together and formed a long snake formation to follow the eight-pronged team escaping down the hillside.
Shots were fired from time to time.
He ran as fast as a rabbit running for his life.
The mountain road is rugged, but some warriors fell down...
The Japs' leading soldiers came vigilantly to where the Eighth Route Army had just opened fire, and immediately dispersed and walked away from the nearby bushes.
God knows how many landmines the despicable Tuba Road has laid while staying here!
Didn't go far.
There is a three-way intersection on the mountain road.
The mountain road is divided into two, one is to the north and the other is to the south.
During the previous pursuit, we could clearly see the northern route taken by the Eighth Route Army carrying the wounded.
The Eighth Route Army who had just blocked the attack ran southward.
What does Tubalu mean?
The second lieutenant did not hesitate at all and pointed to the south road: "Pursuit..."
After speaking, he ordered the messenger next to him: "Report the current situation to the lieutenant immediately!"
I’ve seen this happen a lot!
The Japanese second lieutenant knew how to deal with it without thinking at all.
He led the team to continue the pursuit and asked the team behind to quickly follow up and pursue the Tubal team that was escaping westward.
The bushes in the mountains are not deep, and even under the moonlight, the whereabouts of Tubal Road can be seen clearly!
Of course, it is not ruled out that Tuba Road may hide one or two important people on the roadside.
However, after dawn, the Imperial Association Army following behind will let the Tubalu know.
Even if there is a mouse hiding on this hillside, we have to find it...
There is no way to escape from the sweeping army!
