Although the two sides have now ceased fire, Chen Yunzhang and Li Hongzhi do not dare to relax at all. They set up several groups of sentries around the forest. One is worried about the sudden attack of the devil, and the other is also worried that the wolf will attack at night?

No one has been to this place for decades, and no one knows how far the wolves have grown.

Compared with the caution of Chen Yunzhang and Li Hongzhi, Fujiwara only has anger. He didn't expect that the team he sent out would be killed by wolves before they could engage in a firefight, and he now wondered if the valley had been enchanted and even the beasts were against him. Of Fujiwara's three captains, only Yoshino remains. The other Shao Zuo and Jun Cao lost more, these people were all the backbone of the army, they did not die on the fierce battlefield, but lost their lives in the deep mountains and old forests. This made Fujiwara feel extremely resentful.

"Your Excellency, should we sneak up on it at night?" Yoshino asked.

"No, we're not good at night fights. A night raid is not a good plan, and we have another terrifying enemy who operates at night. A team of 500 people was sent out to block the exit from the valley. If these people want to go out, they must go through the exit, and the radio will contact them at any time, and as long as it is dawn tomorrow, we will catch turtles in an urn. ”

Fujiwara's idea is very good, he intends to use the absolute superiority of forces to destroy the other party, as long as the duck that reaches the beak until dawn will not be able to fly.

"Weimo, although the devils have ceased fire now, will they suddenly attack us at night?"

Chen Yunzhang listened to Zhou Min's question, shook his head and said, "Devils rarely fight at night. Besides, the terrain here is unfamiliar to everyone, and we both have to guard against wolf raids, so I don't think the devils will attack tonight. ”

Li Hongzhi heard Chen Yunzhang say this, and suggested: "If the devil doesn't attack, won't it be safe for us to withdraw from the Wild Wolf Valley overnight?"

When Chen Yunzhang heard him say this, he said with a smile: "Li Da is in charge, the devil will not give us a chance to evacuate safely." Even if they don't launch a surprise attack, they won't let us go. If I'm not mistaken, the exit must have been blocked by the devils, and they will wait until dawn tomorrow, and there is no threat of wolves attacking us at night. ”

Li Hongzhi naturally didn't believe what Chen Yunzhang said, so he motioned to a few of his bandits to investigate.

"According to what you say, it will still be very dangerous at dawn tomorrow, is there any way to contact the outside, can you let the nearby garrison pick us up?" Qian Li said with a frown.

Chen Yunzhang shook his head and said: "Self-denial, in fact, half a day's journey out of this mountain is the station of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army. I had already contacted them before entering the valley. But now there is a team of devils not far from the 386 station. Listening to Brigade Commander Chen, the devil's team is just to contain them, not to take the initiative to attack, but to do passive defense. And the other troops are too far away from us, even if they rush over, it will take at least more than a day, and the devil will definitely not leave us so much time. ”

When everyone heard Chen Yunzhang say this, they were a little discouraged. Zhou Min suddenly asked at this time: "Wei Mo, you said that there is a special team of devils to monitor the 386 Brigade? And it is only for passive defense, this is too strange." The support team that pursued us, looking at the establishment should be a wing, although it was understaffed, but there were still more than 2,000 people. If the devil wants to contain the 386 Brigade, he also needs at least one wing. In the current situation of the Great War in Shanxi in North China, the Japanese army was able to divide into two wings. Isn't it strange to be in such a place that is not strategic?"

Hearing Zhou Min say this, Li Hongzhi slapped his thigh and said: "That's right, the little devils are very strange, how can there be so many devils suddenly attacking in such a remote place as our Mao'er Mountain? Our ancestors have lived here for generations, and we have never encountered a situation where a large army has entered the mountains, which is still too strange!"

The question that haunts Zhou Min's mind these days is why did the devils attack Maoershan? The meeting that had been agreed with the 386 Brigade was interrupted by the devil's sudden attack, but now that he learned that the 386 Brigade was being pinned down by the devils, Zhou Min was very sure that this was a premeditated pursuit and premeditated containment.

Now the answer is forthcoming.

"Vimo, how did you find here?"

"The division commander ordered me to come to Shanxi with a special operations team to meet you, but after we arrived in Shanxi, we were told that the 386th Brigade had not received you. Listen to Brigade Commander Chen of the 386 Brigade, the devils have attacked Maoershan, and you have lost the news. So we hurried over, because the entrance to the mountain was blocked by devils, so we walked to the north foothills, and finally met you in the Wolf Valley. ”

"That's not right, Vimo. My affairs in Maoershan should only be known to the people of the 386th Brigade, Li Da Dang sent his younger brother to send a letter to the 386th Brigade and contact Doctor Li in the 386th Brigade, how could my brother send you, how did he know the news?" Zhou Min asked with a puzzled expression.

"Minmin, in fact, you and the wounded team of the Eighth Route Army evacuated Wuyue Village, and the division commander already knew your news. Including your disappearance alone in the later stage and exchanging news with the 386 Brigade, the division commander knows it. ”

When Zhou Min heard him say this, he couldn't help but change his face: "How did my brother know?"

"Initially, your news was learned from Brigade Commander Zhao of the 125th Route Army and his commander Liu, they sent a telegram to the top of the National Army, and after Commander Fu's relay, the division commander knew that then all your movements would be transmitted by the Eighth Route Army to the top of the National Army, and then to the division commander, so the division commander would send me here. ”

When Zhou Min heard Chen Yunzhang say this, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and understood the key to this. It turned out that his news had passed through the top level of the Eighth Route Army and the Kuomintang to Zhou Tao's hands, so in several links, it was likely that the news would leak.

Chairman Jiang's high-profile award of honor was definitely the last straw that overwhelmed the devil, and now the little devil should be eager to tear himself alive. Suppose that in the process of transferring, the devils already know their news, so they will chase after them to death. This would explain why the wounded troops were chased so badly.

The news of his own presence in Mao'er Mountain must have also been leaked, otherwise how could the devil send such a large team to enter Mao'er Mountain, a place where chickens don't poop and birds don't lay eggs, and now they have chased them to Wolf Valley. The 386 Brigade was also contained, obviously the devils didn't want them to rescue, everything was clear, the devils were definitely coming for themselves, Zhou Min was very sure in his heart.

"Weimo, is there a way for you to contact the 386 Brigade and contact it directly without going through others?"

"You can get in touch, when I left the 386th Brigade, I asked Brigade Commander Chen for help, and we left each other's radios. ”

"Are you sure it's your one-line contact? If you send a message to the 386th Brigade, will you be caught by the devils?"

"It's definitely a one-line connection, but it's likely to be caught by the devil, to the point that it's not that the devil deliberately targets our station, but that the devil will analyze and decipher all the signals in the nearby area, and the content of the telegram is encrypted, and it is estimated that it will take some time for the devil to crack it. ”
