To the northwest of Fenghuang Mountain, Xiaoqingnao.
Liu Yu and his troops had just arrived at the mountain, and then took Wu Hongbo to the top of the mountain to observe the terrain.
Nowadays, unlike later generations after the founding of the People's Republic of China, villages were merged into villages. Nowadays, villages all over the country basically exist in the form of clans, so there are little bits and pieces everywhere.
A large village has hundreds of households, and a small village has seven or eight households.
In the Phoenix Mountain area, there are more than 20 villages within a ten-kilometer radius, many of which have been lost to later generations.
Although Xiaoqingnao is called Nao, it is actually higher than Fenghuang Mountain in the southeast, with an altitude of 906 meters. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking through a telescope, you can see the surrounding villages clearly, and the same is true for Fenghuang Mountain. Unobstructed view.
"There aren't many people on the mountain. They must have gone out to rob."
Liu Yu said and handed the binoculars to Wu Hongbo.
Wu Hongbo took the telescope and looked at Phoenix Mountain for a while. After putting down the telescope, he looked puzzled: "If the terrain of the surrounding mountains is not too dangerous, why did Zhao Yi choose such a place to set up a stronghold? "
Liu Yu curled his lips and said disdainfully: "What kind of knowledge can a bandit have? Most likely, he is doing it because of the name of Phoenix Mountain, hoping that he can fly up the branches and turn the pheasant into a phoenix."
"What should I say now?" Wu Hongbo asked.
Just as Liu Yu was about to speak, he heard footsteps coming from behind him.
Turning around, he saw Li Ergou running in a hurry.
When he got close, Li Ergou saluted: "Report to the captain, we found Zhao Yi's men near Mukou Valley. They are pulling the looted things towards Fenghuang Mountain. The speed is very slow. They are expected to arrive here in an hour. There were fifty-two people in total, twenty-seven of them had guns on their backs, and the others had large blades and other weapons. Oh, by the way, there were eleven girls in their team that they had robbed. Deputy Zhang I’m still following you now!”
"Mukou Valley?" Liu Yu murmured, and the surrounding topography immediately appeared in his mind.
The straight-line distance from Mukou Valley to here is about three kilometers, but the mountain road is very winding, and the actual distance is at least several kilometers.
As soon as a thought flashed through his mind, Liu Yu raised his telescope and looked at the Xigou Village area in the northeast.
After watching for a while, he said to Wu Hongbo: "Old Wu, Zhao Yi wants to return to Fenghuang Mountain. Xigou is the only way for him to pass. I see that there is no mountain road ahead. The vegetation on it is relatively dense and the concealment is pretty good, so I plan to What do you think of a sap that lays an ambush on both sides of the mountain road and beats him like a dog?"
Wu Hongbo also glanced in the direction of Xigou and nodded: "I agree!"
"Then let's go like this, let's go!"
With that said, the three of them went down the mountain, gathered their troops, and rushed to the mountain road outside Xigou Village at extremely fast speeds.
The combat mission was quickly issued. Since most of Jiang Fengchun's platoon was sent out for reconnaissance, they were only responsible for stabbing the tail end.
The second and third platoons are responsible for attacking on both sides.
You have to be serious about fighting bandits. Once the veterans from the second and third platoons arrive, they teach the new recruits how to dig trenches and bunkers.
This was also what Liu Yu ordered. He regarded this battle as a practical training.
Liu Yu walked among the soldiers. Although he was relatively satisfied in his heart, he was still chattering.
Especially when he saw Ma Chao, he scolded him directly.
"Move quickly and dig the bunker deeper! Ma Chao, what are you digging like this? Half of your body is exposed. If you were to fight the Japanese, one grenade launch would knock you down!"
Ma Chao was already squatting in the pit checking the gun. When he heard this sound, he could only put down the gun with a pout, picked up the shovel and continued digging.
After digging for a few times, I found that I couldn't dig anymore, so I could only complain: "Captain, there are rocks down there, and I can't dig at all."
"You won't fight if there are rocks?" Liu Yu looked at him with disdain, "Look at others, aren't they still digging? Are you the only one who is delicate?"
Ma Chao's face instantly darkened, he threw down the shovel, picked up the pickaxe handle on the side, stared at the stones on the ground, mistook them for Liu Yu, and gritted his back molars to say hello.
Suddenly sparks flew everywhere.
In about half an hour, everyone dug a bunker and lay down in the trench to sort out their guns and ammunition.
I heard a veteran say: "Just a group of bandits can mobilize a large number of people, and those who don't know better think that we are fighting the Japanese. If you ask me, put on a bayonet, rush down, stab, and say "hand over the gun" but not kill, then those bandits will be designated. Urinated (SUi)!"
Another veteran next to him rolled his eyes: "You know what the hell, didn't the captain say it? This is called actual combat training! What is actual combat training? It's just to pick a weak persimmon and let these new recruits see blood and let them get familiar with it. Let’s take a look at the battlefield atmosphere.”
The veteran who spoke first sneered: "Just these bandits? They don't even have machine guns. How can you be familiar with a ghost? If you really want to be familiar with it, you have to be a ghost. After several rounds of artillery shells, if your mind is still clear, then you are familiar with it." Got it!"
At this time, another word came from the side.
"Pass this on, the enemy will be here soon. Pay attention to the dozen or so girls in the bandit team. Watch out when you fight, and try not to accidentally hurt them."
The two veterans immediately stopped complaining and conveyed Liu Yu's order.
Yes, what Liu Yu said was "try your best" not to cause accidental injuries. After all, bullets don't have holes. If the four machine guns on both sides shoot down, who knows who they will hit.
However, Liu Yu knew it well and had arranged for Ma Chao and his son to snipe Zhao Yi.
If things go well, I believe that as long as the bandit leader is killed, the rest will be easy to solve.
About ten minutes later, shouts came from the mountain road in the distance.
It was already 5 o'clock in the evening, the sun in the west had already set over the mountains, and the sky was gradually getting dark. I guess the bandits were also anxious to return to the village, so they started to speed up.
On the position of the county brigade, Liu Yu raised his binoculars and looked into the distance, then ordered in a low voice: "Get ready to fight!"
Suddenly, there was a "click" sound of a bullet being loaded.
Zhao Yi, who was on the mountain road, was not aware of the coming danger at all. He was riding on a donkey and humming sour songs. His eyes occasionally looked at the little girl from Guangdu Village Chief's family who was tied up next to him.
Although she was wearing loose clothes, she could still clearly see the girl's graceful figure.
Thinking of the moment when I snatched this girl, I took the opportunity to squeeze it twice, the feeling...
Looking at that innocent and pleasant face again, Zhao Yi drooled, and an evil fire rose up in his lower abdomen.
"I have never seen such a smart girl. Fortunately, I found it early, otherwise I would have taken advantage of the Japanese sooner or later." Zhao Yi thought, "It is better to take advantage of the Chinese than to take advantage of the Japanese!"
Thinking that Phoenix Mountain was not far away, Zhao Yi decided not to wait until the bridal chamber tomorrow, but to deal with this girl when he got back.
"I feel jealous even with my clothes on, but if I take off all my clothes..." Zhao Yi couldn't help but tremble when he thought of this.
At this moment, Zhao Yi suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, as if someone had hit him hard with a chisel, and his whole body moved to the side.
Just when he wanted to scream, he found that he suddenly couldn't even open his mouth. Then there was a burst of gunshots in his ears, and then nothing happened.
"Bang!"
The group of bandits were all laughing and joking, but suddenly they saw their boss's head explode and he fell off the donkey's back to the ground, with red and white scattered everywhere.
All the bandits were stunned.
Then another scream was heard.
"ah!!!!!"
This was the girl next to Zhao Yi. Her face was splashed with brains. She reacted when Zhao Yi landed and screamed immediately.
At this time, another loud shout came from the hillside far to the right.
"Listen to the bandits below, you have been surrounded, put down your weapons immediately..."
At this time, the bandits finally reacted. One of the gang leaders pulled the bolt of his gun and fired at the source of the sound, and then shouted at the other gang members.
"Damn it, you dare to find trouble with even a gun. Brothers, avenge the boss and fight!"
At this time, the bandits who had guns raised their guns and started fighting.
The main reason was that Liu Yu only fired one shot and there was only one person speaking. The little boss thought Liu Yu was bluffing.
On Liu Yu's side, the little leader's shot hit one meter in front of him, splashing a few stones and startling him.
Sometimes it's like this, it's better to shoot more accurately when you're blind than when you're aiming.
"Mom, you dare to fight back? Hit me!"
Before Liu Yu could give the order just now, Ma Chao, that naughty boy, opened fire first. Seeing that the ambush had been exposed, Liu Yu had no choice but to stand up and shout.
It is of course best to call for surrender, as this can avoid casualties.
But who knew that one of the bandits was really stubborn. Instead of surrendering, they dared to fire at Liu Yu. Now Liu Yu couldn't hold back his anger and directly ordered a fight.
With his order, a total of four machine guns on both sides of the hillside fired at the same time. The hail of bullets was like a sickle, knocking down more than a dozen bandits in an instant!
The rifles in the hands of the other soldiers were not fire sticks. They fought neatly. Almost as soon as Liu Yu gave the order, they all pulled the triggers at the same time!
More than 100 rifles fire at the same time. As long as they fire in unison, the effect is no less than that of two heavy machine guns!
The bandits had never seen this battle before, and they were beaten to the point of running away. About a dozen of them ran back along the mountain road for their lives. The remaining ones who were the most timid fell to their knees on the ground, holding their heads and sticking out their buttocks, trembling.
The county brigade's firing lasted less than 5 minutes, and the bandits dispersed.
"Stop shooting, bayonets!"
Seeing this situation, Liu Yu also directly ordered a charge.
From the moment he gave the order to fire, the crooked light machine gun had only fired two bullets. He had a new understanding of the low-level combat power of the bandits these days, and he expressed his surprise at the same time.
The soldiers around him were also very quick, and they clicked their bayonets in a few seconds.
"Come on!"
Liu Yu took out the tortoise box he had seized before, and copied a large blade from a soldier on the side, and rushed down first.
"Rush!!!"
Other soldiers shouted to follow.
On the gentle slopes on both sides, the ambush position of the county brigade was almost a hundred meters away from the mountain road. It took the soldiers more than ten seconds to rush there.
The reason why they ordered the charge was not to save bullets, but because they were worried about hitting those girls.
As soon as they rushed closer, a group of bandits also knelt down and begged for mercy, shouting to the military master for mercy.
Liu Yu ran the fastest and ran to Zhao Yi's side immediately, almost vomiting out when he saw the brains on the ground.
Seeing the girl next to her lying on the ground with her head in her arms, Liu Yu endured his churning stomach and stepped forward.
"Girl, are you okay?" As he said that, Liu Yu bent down and held her arm, "I am the Eighth Route Army, here to save you. Get up, it's okay."
When the girl heard Liu Yu's words, she raised her head and took a tentative look. She found that she was surrounded by soldiers wearing blue-gray military uniforms. She finally breathed a sigh of relief and stood up tremblingly.
When she stood up and looked at Liu Yu, Liu Yu was stunned.
What a pretty girl!
Although his face was covered with blood and dirt, his amazing appearance could not be concealed!
At this time, the girl's heart was filled with the joy of surviving the disaster, and she wanted to take a closer look at what the hero who killed Zhao Yi and saved her looked like.
Well, he's pretty good-looking, much better than that naughty boy Zhao Yi.
"Hey, Zhao Yi?"
The little girl's thoughts moved and she glanced towards Zhao Yi, then immediately moved her eyes back in fear.
But she had already seen it, and the picture would definitely not be able to be driven out of her mind in a short time, so she stared at Liu Yu, trying to cover up the picture with this heroic face.
Watching, watching, I twitched my nose so hard that the smell of blood and the smell of pig brains I had eaten before hit my forehead!
"vomit!!!"
Liu Yu:? ? ?
