"Sir, two kilometers southeast of the stronghold, the Eighth Route Army has appeared, equipped with three light machine guns, and it must be the main force of the Eighth Route Army." The Colony Commander rushed in and reported.

"Which of our troops is over there?" Miki Nakasa immediately asked.

"More than eighty Imperial troops of the Third Squadron and the Fifth Company of the Imperial Allied Army are over there!" The commander hastened to report.

Miki Nakasa immediately ordered: "Let them attack immediately, bite this Eighth Route Army for me, and then eat them." ”

"Hey!"

In a col three kilometers from the point of fire, the only way to enter the mountain passes through the foot of the mountain.

The two main companies and the remaining fighters of the guerrilla brigade brought into the mountains by Liu Senyun were all ambushed on the mountainside, holding guns and light machine guns, keeping their eyes on the mountain road, like hunters, quietly waiting for the prey to take the bait. ”

"A company of guerrilla brigades is coming!" Inside the headquarters, the observation post shouted as he stared at the mountain road.

After less than half a minute, a fire began to appear at the end of the mountain road, and a fire dragon composed of dozens of torches slowly entered everyone's field of vision.

Wang Xin was very familiar with his opponent, and made a judgment on the spot: "Battalion Commander Liu, judging from the length of the pursuit team, the Japanese puppet army that came over was between one hundred and fifty to two hundred, which happened to be the sweeping troops that chased and killed us all the way during the day. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a dark shadow appeared at the door of the headquarters and rushed in to report.

"Captain, there are nearly a hundred little devils behind the company, more than eighty puppet soldiers, equipped with two heavy machine guns, two mortars, the devils are in front, the puppet army is behind, the pursuit speed is very fast, the vigilance is also very poor, and there are no other pursuing troops behind."

Wang Xinkou said: "This is the leader of the reconnaissance squad of the guerrilla brigade, and I asked him to keep an eye around the company to prevent the little devils from having ambushes." ”

Liu Senyun nodded, and then his face became more serious than ever.

"The fish has taken the bait, and the troops are ordered to be ready for battle."

"The light and heavy machine guns readjusted their firing targets and aimed them all at the little devils in front."

"All the troops participating in the battle shall be subject to the flare guns, and when they see the signal flares firing together, do not save bullets, and strive for a round of fire raids to severely damage the pursuing troops of the Japanese puppet army."

After the last puppet army entered the pocket formation, Liu Senyun decisively gave the order to attack.

The moment the flare was lifted into the air, the heavy machine guns mounted on the mountainside began to roar.

There were still two guerrilla brigades left, and the first battalion brought four, a total of six heavy machine guns fired together on the mountainside, like six death harvesters, and wherever the bullets went, the little devils fell to the ground one after another, and their bodies were full of bloody holes.

More than a dozen light machine guns also fired together, and the dense bullets covered nearly a hundred devils in an instant like rain......

The devil was beaten and blinded, and before he could react from the shock, more than half of the casualties were imposed.

The remaining dozens of soldiers were all lying on the ground, bullets whizzing overhead, so overwhelming that they didn't have a chance to look up.

But even then, there is no guarantee of their safety.

Light and heavy machine guns were mounted on the mountainside, condescendingly firing at them.

Even if you lie on the ground, your back is exposed to the muzzle of a light and heavy machine gun, and you can be hit at any time......

In the Weizhuang stronghold, although it was pitch black outside the turret and nothing could be seen, Miki Nakasa still insisted on standing at the lookout, holding a telescope, and staring at the outside motionlessly.

It's as if your own eyes can see through the night and see the battle that is breaking out a few kilometers away.

Half an hour has passed, and no news has come back from the attacking troops.

An hour had passed, and there was still no movement outside the stronghold.

"Sir, something has happened to the pursuing troops!" The Colony Commander rushed in like crazy, reporting with a nervous expression.

"They were ambushed by the Eighth Route Army on their way into the mountains, and now they have lost contact."

"How is this possible?" Miki Nakasa's face was full of shock, and anger surged up all of a sudden, staring at a pair of red eyes, and shouted in disbelief.

"Could it be a mistake?"

"The pursuit force has nearly 200 people, and it is also equipped with heavy machine guns and mortars, even if it encounters a main battalion of the Eighth Route Army, it has the ability to fight, and it can hold on and wait for reinforcements, how can it be possible to lose contact so quickly, and no one is even sent to report."

"It's not clear about the lowly position!" The commander shook his head in reply.

"The troops who remained on the road reported very dense gunfire about three kilometres from the road, where we had to go into the mountains. The gunfire lasted less than ten minutes before it ended, and then the battlefield was silent, and no one came back to report the situation. ”

"There is only one combat detachment of the Imperial Army on the road, and they are worried that the Eighth Route Army has an ambush in the mountains, so they dare not rashly go over to investigate."

Miki Nakasa had already believed six or seven points, and ordered with a calm face: "The troops that can be mobilized by the guard and the stronghold will be assembled immediately, and the troops will be marched to reinforce the battlefield and find out what is really going on there." ”

"I don't believe that more than a hundred Imperial Army and Imperial Alliance Army have been killed in such a short time!"

"If it is true, there are more Eighth Route Army in Nayi County than we judged, and for the sake of safety, all garrisons in the territory must be ready for battle."

Two hours later, Miki Nakasa finally received the news that made him feel desperate: all the pursuing troops had been wiped out, dozens of Imperial Allied troops were missing, and all weapons and ammunition had been captured by the Eighth Route Army.

After listening to the report, the whole person panicked all of a sudden.

The fact that the pursuing troops were wiped out meant that there was a long stretch of road on the front line that was not defended by the Imperial Army.

As long as the Eighth Route Army is willing to destroy this section of the road at any time, it will be impossible for it to complete the road task within the time specified by the headquarters.

At that time, all kinds of punishments will definitely follow, and the position of the captain of the garrison will not be kept, and if you don't do well, you will be sent to a military court, and you will be ruined for the rest of your military career.

Thinking of this, Miki Nakasa's anger was even stronger.

Since the result was irreparable, he decided to vent all his anger on the Eighth Route Army, the culprit of all this, before leaving.

Kill them to vent your hatred, so that you can minimize your guilt.

With a murderous face, he ordered: "Contact all the stronghold garrisons in Yi County, strengthen the guard, no one can leave the stronghold without my order, and give the Eighth Route Army an opportunity." ”

"Inform all the troops here to assemble closer to the Weizhuang stronghold, and then follow the trail left by the retreat of the Eighth Route Army, find them at all costs, kill them, and avenge the imperial army killed in battle."

The former enemy headquarters of the garrison regiment and the reconnaissance company were all scattered, and some people were watching every move of the Japanese puppet army on the blockade line; Someone crossed the blockade line and stared at the strongholds of the Japanese puppet army in Yi County.

Inside the tent, Chief of Staff Hong Linfeng, Political Commissar Wang Hong, and Regiment Commander Li Hao all looked serious, glancing at their watches from time to time, anxiously waiting for something.

"Tick tock...... Didi ......"

The radio set up inside the tent finally sounded, and the signal lights kept flashing.

Zhou Liang's reaction was very fast, and he put on headphones and began to manipulate the station.

There were two telegrams in total, and it took Zhou Liang a full ten minutes to receive them all.

And in this process, Li Hao, Wang Hong, and Hong Linfeng all stood up and stood behind Zhou Liang.

"Regiment commander, Captain Xiao of the commando team and Battalion Commander Liu of the first battalion are in an emergency."
