Zhang Yunfei, who was sitting in the shade with his back against the mountain rock, stared and rested for a while.

With a general goal, as for the specific action of the next part, he has not yet considered it, and this will have to wait for the situation of Tie Dan's reconnaissance.

Having said that, it is really necessary for me to form a reconnaissance platoon, and now the reconnaissance tasks are all carried out by Tiedan's company.

The first company is the sharp knife company of the new Ninth Regiment, and they still have to work when others are resting, and once they encounter an emergency, they need to immediately go into battle, and people's energy is limited after all, especially in this era, reconnaissance is a hard work, and they all rely on their legs to run, which still has a great impact on the combat effectiveness of the first company.

Wang Zejun wanted to work, but his guard platoon was currently positioned to stand guard and be embarrassed.

And Zhang Yunfei is also deliberately grinding his temperament, this guy graduated from the Central Military Academy, he is still a little arrogant, such an attitude is not good.

He is a candidate for the commander of his own spy company, and the spy company has to take on guard, reconnaissance, communications, and other tasks, which are all cautious and meticulous work, and he is not qualified to do this now.

"You mean, the devils in Jianyang haven't made any changes, but they have only strengthened the patrol density?" The news that they sent back still made Zhang Yunfei frown, which was not a good phenomenon.

The Eighth Route Army is good at winning in chaos, and it is really not afraid of the eager and roaring sweep of the little devils, but this unhurried style makes people very uncomfortable.

This can be regarded as a new change of the little devils, and when they sweep, they will mobilize more troops to blockade, which is aimed at the mobile and flexible guerrilla warfare methods of the Eighth Route Army.

Confined to a certain space by the devils, this makes the anti-sweeping operation extremely difficult, and many troops are compressed by the devils step by step to compress the living space, and finally cannot move, in order to get rid of the enemy's sweep, often sacrifice greatly.

It is impossible for the devil to be indifferent to make such a big move by himself, looking at this situation, he wants to trap himself.

Although the facts are different from what Zhang Yunfei thought, they are also very different, and Gemu Dazuo promised to cooperate with Fengmu to encircle and suppress this Eighth Road, but he only promised his troops to take on the blockade task.

Because his troops were cooperating with the sweeping troops to blockade the Taiyue District at this time, they couldn't draw too many troops at all, so they could only strengthen the blockade and block Zhang Yunfei's way to escape north.

Although Fengmu's troops were also responsible for the blockade of the southern Hebei region, their two wings were not the main attacking forces in this sweep, and were only responsible for the blockade of the periphery.

However, the Fengmu Wing is responsible for the outermost blockade defense, which is much easier than the Gemu Wing's direct blockade of the Eighth Route Army's base area.

Moreover, the main combat target of the Fengmu Wing has always been the Kuomintang troops, and the mobile forces that can be mobilized in his hands are much richer than those of the Gemu Wing.

Therefore, in this encirclement and suppression of Zhang Yunfei's troops, the Fengmu Department served as the main attack, sweeping from the south to the north, while the Gemu Department served as a blockade to block their way to the north.

From the report of the attack on Xiang Yuan, Gemu Dazuo also realized that the combat strength of Zhang Yunfei's army was still considerable, so he sent additional troops to increase the defense of various regions, and at the same time sent a large number of plainclothes to find Zhang Yunfei's headquarters.

This is also what the Iron Egg they saw in their reconnaissance, and the Japanese puppet army was stepping up patrols and increasing defense.

Zhang Yunfei doesn't have a good way to deal with the devils who are waiting for him now, and now the devils are not as pampered and reckless as they were at the beginning of the war, and they are extraordinarily pragmatic.

The ambush battle against Xiangyuan took a big advantage for itself, and it also made the Japanese puppet army more cautious, and it was very difficult to capture the fighters.

Zhang Yunfei also realized that with the attention of the Japanese puppet army to themselves, their situation will become more and more difficult, in fact, Zhang Yunfei also knows that after this battle, according to the usual practice, it is to lead the team to move north, and before the enemy encircles and suppresses, enter the old base area to temporarily avoid the limelight.

However, the road back to the north is not so easy, and now the devils have a tighter blockade of the base area, and a wing of devils, nearly 4,000 puppet troops, has formed a tight blockade line, and almost every village intersection has built turret bunkers.

Now that I have grown my own business, it is almost impossible to sneak through the blockade line, and even if it passes, it is not so easy to come back.

And then the devil will also enter a big sweep of the base area, and when he goes back at this time, it will always be a bit of a self-defeating net.

Therefore, in the face of the proposal to retreat north, Zhang Yunfei vetoed it, and responded on the grounds that his unit was to be used as a target to attract the enemy.

With the active troops of the southern front mobilized by Fengmu in place one after another, Zhang Yunfei's situation deteriorated rapidly, and the blockade of the surrounding Japanese puppet army was extremely tight, and the Japanese puppet army units on the southern front began to advance rapidly to the north, gradually squeezing his living space.

Mineki attaches great importance to this operation, after all, it has alarmed friendly forces, even if it is for the sake of face, this operation must be successful.

Therefore, he specially transferred half a brigade of the imperial army, plus the cooperation of two regiments of puppet troops, and began to sweep the entire area.

Although Mineki wanted to eliminate this group of eight roads immediately, he didn't get too dazed and mobilized too many troops and gave up his own job.

It was precisely in accordance with the requirements of the Front Army that China was used to contain China, and these puppet armies began to gradually replace the imperial army and assume the task of resisting Japan behind enemy lines, and at the same time let the puppet army fight independently against the Eighth Route Army to ensure control of the battlefield behind enemy lines and the security of the areas it occupied.

The use of these puppet armies can save a lot of tension in the imperial army, and now such a situation can just be used.

Feng Mu also knew that from any point of view, this was a heavy army, and it seemed a bit of a fuss to deal with this Eight Roads, but he had no choice.

His army has too little combat experience with the Eighth Road, and he has to sweep several counties, and he is really afraid that he will not be able to deal with the elusive tactics of the Eighth Route if there are fewer people.

The intelligence capabilities of the Japanese puppet army, according to the intelligence summary of all parties, accurately locked the area south of Jianyang, and sent multiple units to sweep up.

In the face of the Japanese puppet army's pressing step by step, it was no longer possible to hide, and was discovered by a puppet army, and had to urgently move to the northeast.

And the puppet army behind him saw this opportunity, but they were biting and chasing after it.

Normally, these puppet soldiers really don't dare to do this, but now that they are surrounded by their own people, Balu only cares about running for their lives, and has no time to deal with them, so they naturally become arrogant.

As long as they are tightly entangled in the eight roads, so that they cannot escape, and wait until the encircled troops arrive, it will be a great achievement.

However, when Zhang Yunfei and the others fled into the Black Stone Ridge in the east of Jianyang, the puppet army that chased after them hesitated and slowed down.

The credit is good, but this place is high and densely forested, and the chase is too tight and is ambushed by the eight roads in a hurry, and it is not worth losing his life, anyway, as long as he follows from a distance, don't let them really run away.
