There are many monsters and monsters active in the dark night.
In order to ensure the safety of the inspection team, the fifth district organized people to watch the show. In this way, the ghosts and monsters could not figure out the movements of the inspection team.
The armed work team of the first division and the staff of the enemy's engineering department and the enemy's engineering section of the first division mounted their horses and acted as vanguards and set off first, followed closely by the trainee teams in batches.
The inspection team had horses to ride on and mule carts to ride on, but the students did not receive those benefits.
The team marched in a dry river at the junction of several counties. On both sides of the river, there was a division of soldiers arranged in advance to guard. There was basically no need to worry about the enemy's night raid team or the traitors of the reconnaissance team.
The Ninth Battalion had twelve bicycles, but the river was full of potholes and it was impossible to ride the bicycles. They had to tie the heavy-duty machine guns and mortars to the back seats and push them around, which became a burden for the students in the fifth division. I feel a lot more balanced in my eyes.
The students from the first division led by Li Huanzhang were not polite at all and directly tied their backpacks to Jiuying bicycles. Later, they even helped Jiuying learn to push the bicycles.
How can it be comfortable to walk with nothing but a heavy load?
The soldiers were not too tired as they whispered about last night's drama along the way.
As for the silent march, there are guard posts everywhere on both sides of the river, so there is no need to worry at all.
After Wang Liujin stopped him twice, he simply let these energetic students murmur in low voices.
Before dawn, the vanguard team arrived at a village, followed by conveying orders to the rear, and entered the village to rest.
From midnight to dawn, the team marched nearly fifty miles!
Daybreak.
Deep in the mountains.
He Chuanlin and more than a hundred people lay on the mountain ridge, holding the Type 13 telescope given to him by the old bandit Qi in his hand, looking towards the stretching distant mountains.
On the mountain ridge in the distance, the old bandit Qi and more than ten people were waiting impatiently.
Finally, several figures appeared in the distance, and they could vaguely be seen wearing friendly military uniforms, rushing to the location of the old bandit Qi.
After a while, the old bandit Qi looked at the dusty Zhang Weimin in front of him and said sarcastically: "Haha, I haven't seen you for more than a month, and you have turned into a dog and put on dog skin?"
Zhang Weimin said with a dark face: "I will give you two days to exit Huangqiu Cave. The security team will arrive at Huangqiu Cave before dark tomorrow. As for the food, I will arrange for someone to deliver it to you."
Old Bandit Qi chuckled: "Hey, if you have the nerve to go to Huangqiu Cave, I personally have no objection."
Zhang Weimin was stunned for a moment: "What do you want?"
"Don't you have Japanese advisers in your team? Send them here. I'll help you get rid of them."
"No!" Zhang Weimin shook his head: "Besides, if I want to get rid of those Japs, can't I do it myself?"
Old Bandit Qi curled his lips: "Do you have the courage?"
"Let's not talk about this now." Zhang Weimin thought for a while: "I must get Huangqiu Cave back, and you must withdraw from our defense area immediately."
The old bandit Qi swore arrogantly: "I'm fucking your mother, your defense zone? Do you think you are still a national army? I tell you, you son of a bitch is now a puppet army. As long as you dare to take another step to the west, don't blame me. A gun doesn't recognize a person."
"Rude!" Zhang Weimin's face turned red, and he suddenly realized that it was exactly what Qi said. His current identity had become a traitor and puppet soldier that everyone wanted to beat. He took it for granted that he still acted as before. The situation made it really inappropriate for the Eighth Route Army to leave the national army station.
But I was in the Cao camp and my heart was in the Han Dynasty, so I couldn't say anything, so I was speechless for a while.
Qi Lao Qi's voice was cold: "Being a dog means being a dog. If you dare to kill the Japs in your team to bring order to the chaos, I will return Huangqiu Cave to you without saying a word."
Zhang Weimin suddenly felt a little excited, but quickly calmed down again.
It's easy to kill the Japs in the team, but what next? More than a thousand of his brothers must starve to death in the mountains.
But why didn’t these Eighth Route Army starve to death? Suddenly he was curious: "Can you tell me how you survived in the mountains?"
"You think I'm an idiot, do you think I will tell you?"
"If you can guarantee my brothers three meals a day, I can consider your suggestion."
"I'm not your father..." I suddenly realized that I still had to rely on him to deliver food, so I quickly changed my tone and changed the topic: "You don't have anything to eat, this is easy to handle, just rob the Japanese..."
Zhang Weimin was stunned for a moment: "Robbing the Japanese? It's easy for you to say, but how many brothers will die?"
"Since you are so afraid of death, why don't you talk nonsense."
"You fart, I'm not afraid of death, I just don't want my brothers to die in vain."
"Forget it, I can't tell you clearly. I don't have that eloquence. I asked you to come here today to warn you. From today on, only we are allowed to enter your defense area. This mountain ridge is used as the boundary. Don't be blamed if you dare to cross the boundary. I will kill you."
Zhang Weimin felt aggrieved: "It seems that we can't reach an agreement on this matter."
"Okay, you can just come over here." After Qi Lao Qi finished speaking, he was about to leave.
"Wait, my request is very simple. You leave Huangqiu Cave for the time being. I will lead people to clean it up before you go back."
"You are really a good dog." After the scolding, Old Bandit Qi said: "Don't touch the crops, and leave 10,000 bullets for me."
Before coming here, I had discussed it with Captain Qin. If we really wanted to fight these puppet troops in the mountains, it would be uneconomical to lose troops and waste ammunition. It would be very difficult to keep the newly replanted crops.
So when Zhang Weimin sent someone to contact him, the two of them discussed it before coming up with such a response idea.
There is no way, there is no way to ask for instructions from superiors for this kind of emergency.
Watching the old bandit Qi go away, the adjutant next to Zhang Weimin frowned: "Captain, how about we really kill them!"
Zhang Weimin turned to stare at the adjutant: "Two years ago, here, 50,000 of us couldn't defeat the Eighth Route Army. How could we, more than a thousand brothers, suppress them?"
The adjutant smiled awkwardly: "Does the superior mean that we surrender to the Japanese to use our status as puppet soldiers to fight against the Eighth Route Army?"
"Those people in Chongqing can only talk on paper. Now we have become traitors and loyal national salvation troops that everyone wants to beat. If we take action first, do you think that with the temper of the Eighth Route Army, they will show mercy to us like they did two years ago?"
"I understand, this step Chongqing has taken is just shooting itself in the foot?"
"Shit, this is called sacrificing troops even after losing his wife. The commander was captured by the Japanese and prepared to go on a hunger strike to serve the party and the country. Those people in the military command pretended to be doctors and made the commander endure the humiliation. Think about the important status of the commander. How could the little devil let those people in the military command? Approaching the Commander?"
The adjutant finally understood the details: "I understand. Those people in Chongqing have been encircling and suppressing the Eighth Route Army for more than ten years, but nothing can be done. The little Japs have always wanted to wipe out the Eighth Route Army. Those people in Chongqing found that they had the same purpose as the Japs, so they formed a tacit understanding. Then let us be traitors and continue to be cannon fodder. This is too fucking complicated."
"You just figured it out now?"
"Hey, battalion commander, let's do whatever you want!"
"We will send a trustworthy person to say hello to Qi later. Huang Qiu Cave still needs to be attacked. Send those traitors who have committed crimes during this period to lead the charge."
"If you join our army, you will become our brothers. Isn't it bad to do this?"
"The Japanese are watching, how dare you play tricks? How about you become cannon fodder?"
The adjutant lowered his voice: "How about we kill those Japs and surrender to the Eighth Route Army?"
"Haha, Balu eats two meals a day and is still very thin. Can you live with this kind of life?"
The adjutant was confused for a while, and finally sighed: "The one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world! I think this country will really fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army."
"What, you only realized this today?"
"You mean, you already knew?"
Zhang Wei looked lonely: "The Chongqing government is really too corrupt and unsatisfactory."
"We have to go back quickly. The Japs have arranged for sentries to keep an eye on our headquarters." The adjutant looked worried. He and Zhang Weimin changed clothes with the guards early in the morning and sneaked out. If the Japs advisers found out, there would be trouble. What a turmoil.
Fortunately, most of the people escaped from the encirclement. At dawn, they finally found Lao Meng, the leader of the guerrilla brigade who was left behind.
