The weather at noon was unusually hot, the loess road at the foot of the mountain was dusty under the hot sun, and a pool of stagnant water after the rain dried up unconsciously, revealing the cracked bottom of the different shapes, and the grass and trees on both sides of the road all hung their heads listlessly, only the summer cicadas were still making irritating chirps. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The garrison in the town had long since taken refuge in the houses, and there was no shadow of the Cantonese officers and soldiers at the checkpoint set up in the north of the town, and the dogs that occasionally ran past the edge of the town stuck out their long tongues, and as soon as they slipped through the intersections, they hid in the shadows of the houses, not daring to stay too long in the open space under the blazing sun.

Huang Yuheng and the two detachment leaders were not tall, carrying nearly 100 catties of firewood and walking four kilometers of mountain roads, at this time they were already sweating profusely, unrecognizable, the old headscarves wrapped around their heads were also soaked with sweat, and the dust on their bodies formed dirty dirt under the continuous washing of sweat, but their steps were still as brisk as when they set off.

As soon as the three people carrying firewood entered the intersection east of the town, they were stopped by two Cantonese army guards hiding behind the brick wall.

Huang Yuheng bowed slightly, walked into the shade under the brick wall with a smile, put a handful of firewood on his shoulder against the wall, and wiped the sweat from the headscarf on his head while nodding to the two lazy Cantonese army sentries in front of him:

"Master Jun, we are the mountain people who deliver firewood to Mrs. Wu's family in the town."

The two sentries of the Cantonese army carried rifles on their backs, and the one who looked to be nearly thirty years old, squinted his eyes, looked up and down at Huang Yuheng, who was strong and muscular, with half a cigarette roll on his blackened lips, and a ruffian look on his face, looking like a squad leader, before he began to ask questions, the other two detachment captains dressed as mountain people entered the shade in front one after another, leaned over and put down the heavy firewood on their shoulders, and panted to remove their headscarves to wipe their sweat, just blocking the two high-spirited Cantonese sentries in the middle.

When the older Cantonese army sentry saw that the two young mountain people were so ignorant and went around to the front without his permission, he immediately lowered his face and prepared to scold.

Who knew that at this time, the cloth towel in Huang Yuheng's hand flew like lightning, tightly wrapped around his neck like a spiritual snake, and before he could react, Huang Yuheng's calloused palm had been slammed down and landed accurately on the artery on the right side of his neck.

This unlucky sentry didn't even snort before he passed out in Huang Yuheng's arms.

The other young sentry was stunned by the sudden turn of events, and before he could understand what was going on, he was knocked unconscious by the two detachment leaders who rushed up.

"Don't tie it up, carry it and retreat immediately!"

Huang Yuheng picked up the older sentry and ran quickly to the foot of the mountain, and the other team leader also drew a gourd in the same way, and picked up the unconscious young sentry and chased after him.

The remaining detachment leader had already held the rifle in his hand at this time, and while running, he pulled the bolt of the gun, and frequently looked back to observe, until he ran to the foot of the mountain two hundred meters away, and the enemy troops in the town still did not move at all, but two women walked out from behind the house in the southwest direction, and looked in amazement at the three mountain people who quickly entered the mountain pass and the Cantonese army sentry on their shoulders.

Huang Yuheng and the three of them ran up the mountain col in one go, and a dozen or so brothers who had been waiting for a long time immediately took the prisoners on their shoulders and ran towards the village to the east as if they were raising their hands and feet.

The sniper detachment led by Wang Xiaojun also withdrew from the hidden place at the foot of the mountain to the col and continued to monitor the town below the mountain.

More than 800 soldiers in the village were ready to set off, and at this moment they were concentrating under the shade of the trees and eaves, and the regiment commander Tian Antai received the report and immediately ran out of the thatched hut where the wounded were housed.

Tian Antai pulled Deng Zihui who ran to his side: "Did you see it?" Brother Spy Company has never let me down, it's two when I catch it, haha! ”

After Tian Antai finished laughing, he strode forward with a bang: "Chief of Staff, hurry up and interrogate immediately, haha!" Commander of the First Battalion—"

"Here!"

The commander of a battalion, who was hiding under the eaves diagonally opposite, came running quickly.

Tian Antai crossed his waist and stood proudly under the scorching sun: "Take the wounded and go first, stop and wait at the mountain fork two kilometers to the east!" ”

"Yes!"

The commander of the first battalion turned around and returned to the opposite roof, opened his throat and issued a series of orders: "The first company serves as the striker, set off immediately!" The second company took care of the wounded, followed closely, and the third company followed me! ”

More than 400 soldiers immediately took action.

In less than a minute, the officers and men of the first company had lined up and headed east, the officers and men of the second company carried more than a dozen wounded and sick men to follow closely behind, and the officers and men of the third company lined up on the road, waiting for the battalion commander to give orders.

The two health soldiers were still saying goodbye to the old people in the village, repeatedly telling them to remember that they were threatened by the communist army.

Under the big tree, the two sentinels of the Cantonese army who were tied their hands behind their backs had already woken up, and the two intelligence staff officers in charge of the interrogation asked viciously, and at the same time waved their big hands to "crackle" and slapped them, causing the two unlucky Cantonese sentries to bleed from their noses, and they kept screaming and begging for mercy, and then scrambled to tell their numbers, troops, names of commanders, and the equipment of the whole regiment, and finally told them the approximate location and inventory of the surging headquarters that they had been chasing and suppressing for more than three months.

The entire interrogation process was full of violence, but it was very effective, and the required information was obtained within ten minutes, and Deng Zihui and Tang Rukai on the side were dumbfounded.

Tian Antai, Liu Qihui, and the two principal and deputy battalion commanders of the second battalion squatted in a circle, wrote and drew around the map on the ground, and discussed nervously, and finally drew a conspicuous red circle around the valley three kilometers southwest of the Huangtan River.

"Have you found the location of the Red Fourth Division?"

Deng Zihui really couldn't bear the strong curiosity in his heart, and came to the back of Tian Antai's side and asked eagerly.

Tian Antai stood up with the momentum, instructed Chief of Staff Liu Qihui to command the troops, and turned to Deng Zihui and the three of them to report in detail: "It is basically certain that it is in the valley about 17 kilometers southeast of us......

"The Huangtan River runs right through that valley, and there are impassable mountains on both sides of the east and west, so we believe that the prisoner's confession is basically true, and there is no better hiding place within a hundred miles of the valley that can only be accessed from the north and south mountain passes."

"Will the enemy in the town to the west come after you?" Tang Rukai asked worriedly.

Tian Antai smiled confidently: "Then it depends on whether the first regiment of the 12th Division of the Guangdong Army in the town has the guts, but even if they dare to chase after them, it will be too late at this time, haha!" ”

"Okay, you guys get ready to go, in ten minutes all the detachments of the spy company will be withdrawn, you follow the second battalion to set off together, we must rush to the place where the Red Fourth Division is staying before dark."

Deng Zihui nodded solemnly: "We are ready, it's just ...... What should be done with those two Cantonese prisoners? ”

"Take them away, find the brothers of the Red Fourth Division and let them go back."

After Tian Antai finished speaking, he turned around and left, and more than 100 brothers of the police company had already led dozens of well-fed and well-fed war horses to the shade of trees, and most of the war horses were carrying heavy ammunition boxes and heavy machine guns on their backs.
