XVI. Night Raid
Ask for clicks, ask for collections, ask for tickets, and leave messages. The new book needs to be cared for!

After breakfast, Yan Zhi asked all the soldiers to gather in the school military field, and then each went to a box on the table in turn to take out a small paper ball.
Yan Zhi asked the soldiers with the word "war" on the slip of paper to come out of the ranks.
A total of forty soldiers had notes on them in their hands.
The soldier who had no words on the note in his hand, under the leadership of Zhou Youcai, came to a seven-kilometer cross-country country, and by the way, he replaced the sandbags on his legs with ten catties.
Taking the lead in changing the sandbags, Zhou Youcai shouted one, two, three with a bitter face, and then led the soldiers out of the school military field, only then did he dare to slander with a black face: "I thought it was a beautiful thing to be your adjutant, who knew that my adjutant was worse than a strong man, he got up earlier than the rooster every morning, and slept later than the who fed the cubs at night." ”
Ten minutes later, Yan Zhi led a small detachment of more than 40 soldiers out of the barracks, and the soldiers who had untied the sandbags on their calves had a feeling of being as light as a swallow and letting themselves fly.
No one spoke along the way, Yan Zhi didn't say anything, and the soldiers didn't ask, but they knew that this time was definitely not training, because everyone was fully armed and carrying two days' worth of dry food. Three days ago, Major Yan took Wu Zhonghua and Lu Xuguang out, and only came back last night, it seems that something big may happen today.
With Major Yan leading the team, the soldiers had a sense of steadfastness, which they had never had before.
During the war years, the common people of Huizhou City had long been accustomed to having troops coming in and out every day, some training, some going out, and some troops from other places coming from the rout.
In the past, when the army entered and left the city, the common people still greeted and cheered in the middle of the road, and after a long time, they became numb and accustomed to it, although the war had not yet burned here, but the common people have become less and less convinced that the army can protect them in times of crisis, and the examples of battlefields all over the country are there, and the examples of Nanjin and Jincheng are also there, and the Kuomintang army will withdraw when it is defeated, and the people cannot be cared for.
More than ten kilometers north of the city, the population gradually thinned out, and the wilderness was everywhere in sight.
During the war years, people were sinister, and even in broad daylight, not many people dared to go out.
Although there will be no bandits in the vicinity of the military region, there will still be frequent murder cases, most of which are for money and food, and even if they are reported to the officials, they will only become cases on paper in the end, and so many soldiers died on the battlefield and cannot take care of them, so how can the government still have the manpower to crack these small cases.
Some of the slain people were often dumped in the wilderness, and were not found until they were highly decomposed, and the bodies had long been gnawed beyond recognition by wild dogs and wild cats, and their families could not recognize them.
Before the crossing, Yan Zhi received brutal training in the Killer Devil Camp during the years, and also learned group tactics such as teaming up to rescue hostages, which was definitely more than a few streets ahead of the tactics of World War II.
From the beginning of the outbreak, the squad began to pick up the barren roads and march secretly, Yan Zhi ordered Wu Zhonghua to take Zhong Jiagen as the forward of the detachment, Lu Xuguang and many rear halls. Yan Zhi ordered the four people in the front and the back of the palace, if they saw the suspect, they did not have to report it, and they were killed on the spot. In such a wild wilderness far away from people, if there is a suspicious person, it is either an enemy, an enemy agent, or a villain. In this era of war, everything is better to be careful, and a little carelessness can ruin the whole team.
The march began slowly, and then walked forward more than 20 kilometers, the majestic and winding Longyin Mountain Range finally appeared in the sky, the mountain is as its name, the Longyin Mountain Range is like an endless ancient dragon stretching between the sky and the earth, the mountains are lush and green, and the peak is full of clouds and mist, exuding vitality, which makes people instantly reverence.
There is a good saying, Wangshan ran a dead horse, and the team walked for another hour and a half to reach the foot of the mountain.
Zhao Fugui took Zhou Baoshun to exchange for Wu Zhonghua and Zhong Jiagen, and Li Chenguang took Fang You to replace Lu Xuguang and many queens.
Yan Zhi took out the battle map and spread it on the ground, and at this time the soldiers knew that this time they were going to raid a camp of a devil squad. Crossing the main mountain range of Longyin, through a 30-kilometer rift valley, at the end of the rift valley is a small group of devils guarded by a dangerous pass, called the winged valley, as the name suggests, only birds with wings can fly over this rift valley.
The reason why this pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack is that it is close to the narrow valley floor at the pass, which is one or two kilometers long, without a single curve, and there are lookouts on both sides of the valley top, so that you can see everything at the bottom of the valley.
This dangerous road is the closest road for the army of the Nanping Military Region to go north, but since ancient times, there has never been any huge army to choose this road to go north, because if you want to pass through here, you must first cross the Longyin Mountains, in ancient times, the war horses and grain and grass could not pass, at this time, the artillery baggage is difficult to move an inch, and when the army crosses the Longyin Mountains, it will be used as a target by the enemy's bombers, and the rest of the people can barely reach the Winged Valley, they can only crowd at the bottom of the narrow valley to become the enemy's gun target. Throwing a grenade with his eyes closed in the past will kill at least dozens of people.
Considering that no commander would be stupid enough to let the troops come and die in vain, after the Japanese occupied this place, they only sent a small group of more than 60 soldiers to guard here, and if there was a war here, a devil mobile unit five kilometers away could reach it within five minutes.
At this time, the Chinese army had been completely suppressed by the Japanese army, and the Japanese would never take the initiative to attack north if they did not continue to attack southward, and the Chinese army, which was completely on the defensive. Another major reason was that due to the continuous lengthening of the battle lines on the Chinese battlefield and the increasing amount of land occupied, the Japanese army was already secretly tight in numbers and had to reduce the number of troops stationed in the occupied areas.
Before dark, the team finally crossed the Longyin Mountain Range, and Yan Zhi asked the team to camp in a natural forest ten kilometers away from the Winged Valley. The temperature around the Ryuyin Mountains varies greatly, from the sun scorching the skin during the day to the temperature plummeting after the sun sets.
After Yan Zhi released the sentries, he asked the soldiers to put on the thick clothes that had been prepared, sat in a circle back to back, and each took out dry food.
Yan Zhi looked at his watch, at eight o'clock in the evening, the fog on the Longyin Mountain Range rose as promised, like an ethereal and turbulent wave, spreading out layer by layer, submerging the entire forest in a short time, and then continuing to rush towards the Winged Valley like a tide.
At twelve o'clock, hearing the night cry of owls from the north of the woods twice, Yan Zhi led the team out of the woods and met with Wu Zhonghua, and half an hour later, more than forty people appeared at the entrance of the Winged Valley like more than forty ghosts.
The valley floor of the Winged Valley was overgrown with weeds half a man deep, and on both sides of the valley top, a mile in front of the detachment, searchlights swayed routinely from time to time, flashing at the bottom of the valley covered with thick fog.
