The top of Mianshan Mountain, the observation post.

At this time, the members of the Wolf Tooth Team had already arrived to rendezvous.

Wang Yan said to Li Yunlong: "Commander, we should also go." ”

"Let's go?" Wei Dayong said, "The remaining two armored trains are not fighting?" ”

"Those two armored trains won't come." Sun Ming sighed and said, "It would be nice to use the walkie-talkie to contact the little devil just now, so that the devil won't know that this armored train has had an accident, and the remaining two armored trains will still come, and the 4th Brigade will also come to Niangzi Pass." ”

"If that's the case, we only need to block it a little on the road, and the transport team will have enough time to transport the captured weapons and equipment back to Yang Village."

"Impossible." Wang Yan said, "We don't know the devil's communication code. ”

"That's right." Sun Ming said, "If you don't know the communication code, you can't impersonate." ”

Li Yunlong looked at the walkie-talkie that had been carried by Zhang Dakui and said, "It's a pity that such a good thing." ”

"Commander, there's no need for pity." Wang Yan smiled and said with relief, "As long as the devil's armored train is still running on Zhengtai Road, sooner or later, it will be the dish of our independent regiment." ”

"In the future, our wolf tooth team will come a few more times and get you a few more walkie-talkies!"

"Yes." Li Yunlong smiled and said, "You can't be too greedy, you have gained so many benefits this time, Lao Tzu should indeed be content, pass on my order, give me a withdrawal!" ”

At this time, the main force of the independent regiment and the people of the transport team had all been evacuated.

At that moment, Li Yunlong evacuated with the last remaining wolf tooth squad and communication platoon.

The rapid-fire cannon that was originally intended to be used to attack the devil's armored train was also dismantled, and it was carried on the back of the wolf tooth squad, and Wei Dayong carried the main body of more than 100 catties alone.

……

The long night was finally over.

The land of Sanjin ushered in daylight again.

Yoshio Shinozuka has been standing in the war room for three hours.

From three o'clock in the morning to six o'clock in the morning, he didn't move, and the whole person felt as if he had been immobilized.

Although the expression on Yoshio Shinozuka's face was calm, only Toshishi Nakamura, who was most familiar with him, knew that His Excellency the Commander was already angry in his heart.

If nothing happens to the freight train, then everything is well said.

But if the freight train has a good deal, then the commander of the 4th Brigade, Mitake Tsuda, will definitely be finished, and if he does not commit suicide by seppuku, he will definitely be dismissed or even sent to a military court!

Several staff officers of the headquarters also knew that Yoshio Shinozuka was in a very bad mood at the moment, so they were all careful.

Jun Nakamura prayed in his heart, praying that nothing would happen to the freight train, otherwise the Japanese army in Shanxi would have to jump again.

However, what is due will come eventually.

"Jingle bell ......" The phone rang suddenly.

Takayoshi Tanaka, chief of staff of the First Army, who had been guarding the telephone, picked up the phone: "Maxi Maxi!" ”

After a few moments, Takayoshi Tanaka hung up the phone, then stood up and reported to Yoshio Shinozuka: "Your Excellency Commander, the freight train has been confirmed to have been robbed!" ”

Yoshio Shinozuka's gaze cooled down at once.

After waiting for two seconds, Takayoshi Tanaka continued: "The armored train that was protected with him was also destroyed, and the armored squadron of the 11th Armored Wing under the 3rd Armored Wing, from the squadron leader to Captain Shimazu, more than 100 imperial soldiers have been collectively shattered!" ”

"Got it." Yoshio Shinozuka said indifferently, as if it were just a trivial matter.

After a few seconds, Tanaka Takayoshi continued: "However, Tsuda-kun has already led the main force of the 4th Brigade to Xiyang County to intercept it in advance, and if nothing else, it should be able to stop the Eighth Route Army!" ”

Yoshio Shinozuka's expression finally eased a little.

As long as the weapons and ammunition can be recovered, everything is easy to say.

……

The 4th Brigade has already passed through Xiyang County.

After arriving in Xiyang County, Tsuda Mitake did not continue south, but turned east, and went to the area of Yetou Town to search for and intercept the transport team of the Eighth Route Army.

Yetou Town already belonged to the guerrilla zone of the Eighth Route Army.

In normal times, the Japanese army would not come here.

But at this time, Mitake Tsuda couldn't care about that much.

What's more, now that the main forces of the 4th Brigade are all here, the Eighth Route Army can only go around.

At least at this stage, the Eighth Route Army in the southeast of Shanxi Province did not have the strength to defeat a single brigade of the Japanese army in a short period of time.

After all, the Eighth Route Army in the southeast of Jin was scattered in an area of several hundred kilometers, and Tsuda Mitake absolutely did not believe that the Eighth Route Army had the ability to assemble in a short period of time.

During the march, a Zero combat reconnaissance plane roared in, and after flying over the queue of the 4th Brigade, it began to slow down and fly back and forth.

Jun Soma quickly raised the binoculars and locked onto the cockpit of the plane.

Sure enough, the pilot in the cockpit was constantly signing out.

Finally, the Zero combat reconnaissance aircraft roared towards the east again.

Jun Soma then reported to Misashi Tsuda: "Brigade commander, the aviation scouts have discovered the transport team of the Eighth Route Army!" A convoy of at least 10,000 people is on the Gantao River, twenty miles to the east! ”

Mitake Tsuda's eyes immediately flashed with a fierce light.

The next moment, Mitake Tsuda drew his saber and shouted: "Order, target Gantao River, march at full speed!" ”

As soon as Mitake Tsuda gave the order, the main force of the 4th Brigade, which had been marching at a regular pace, immediately sped up and marched to the Ganyuan River, twenty miles to the east.

……

Twenty miles east of Yetou Town, on the main road by the Gantao River.

Nearly 10,000 civilians were marching with ammunition boxes on their shoulders.

These nearly 10,000 people are basically sturdy young men.

Although everyone carried a large wooden box on their backs, they still walked like flying.

The long queue of people stretched along the east bank of the Gantao River for seven or eight miles.

These people were chatting and laughing while marching, and when they were marching to a hearty place, a soldier of the Eighth Route Army suddenly rode a fast horse and galloped from the front.

"Devil!"

"The devil is coming!"

"The devil is coming from Yetou!"

The next moment, the people who were marching along the east bank of the Gantao River turned around and turned into a number of small roads in the northeast direction with a mouthful of wooden boxes.

……

Almost half an hour passed.

The main force of the 4th Brigade of the Japanese Army came over in a mighty manner.

Jun Soma held the binoculars and looked at the reconnaissance plane in the sky, and then said to Misatake Tsuda: "General, the transport team of the Eighth Route Army fled into the northeast path!" ”

Mitake Tsuda immediately shouted: "Map! ”

Immediately, two staff officers stepped forward and pulled open the map.

Mitake Tsuda looked at the map and said in a deep voice: "The Eighth Route Army transport team must be trying to make a detour!" ”

"Order, the 11th and 12th independent brigades will follow and kill, and the main force of the brigade will take a shortcut to reverse the horse!"

"This time, no matter what, we can't let the Eighth Route Army transport team run away, we must kill them all!"
