Nearly 1,000 absentees were confined in 10 houses, large and small, and of course, it might be more appropriate to say that these houses were warehouses!

I smell a smell from afar!

Each house has two large bunks, and people sleep next to each other!

The shabby military uniforms that have been ticked are still worn on their bodies, and it is no surprise that these clothes will accompany them for the rest of their lives, and unless they have the opportunity to escape from the coal mines, they will definitely die of exhaustion here!

In the year that the Japanese took over the coal mines, more than a hundred prisoners were absent from labor from exhaustion and starvation, and a corpse was brought out of the mine almost every two days!

So everyone here is living in fear and ready to be exhausted to death in the coal mine!

They were awakened by the sudden sound of gunfire outside the barracks!

As former soldiers, they have a natural sensitivity to gunfire!

Immediately, someone shouted with excitement: "This is not a bandit sneak attack on the coal mine, there is an army attacking the coal mine, someone must have come to rescue us!" ”

Another officer-like prisoner then affirmed: "It's the army attacking the coal mine, it's impossible for the bandits to be armed with so many machine guns and artillery, I heard mortar explosions!" ”

"It must be the Jin Sui Army, there is a regular army of the Jin Sui Army in the west of Jin, they must be here to save us!" An officer of the Jin Sui Army shouted!

"I think it's the Central Army, the Jin Sui Army definitely doesn't have the courage to take the initiative to attack the Japanese, only the Central Army has such good equipment, it must be the Central Army that has fought back!" An officer from the Central Army was unconvinced and shouted!

"There may also be the Eighth Route Army!" A very inconspicuous middle-aged man in the crowd said!

"The nearest Jin Sui army is nearly two hundred kilometers away from here, and the Central Army is even farther away, and it is definitely impossible to travel hundreds of kilometers to save us! But there are troops of the Eighth Route Army in this vicinity, and they must have come to our rescue! ”

"Impossible!"

The officers of the Jin Sui Army and the Central Army retorted at the same time!

"As for the tattered equipment in the hands of your Eighth Route Army, it's okay to fight a dozen guerrilla warfare with the little devils, and taking the initiative to attack the devils is no different from sending them to death!"

The middle-aged man didn't argue, but the firm expression on his face was the best counterattack!

Turning his head to a captive beside him, he ordered, "Xiao Liu, let our people get ready!" ”

"If it is really our team attacking the coal mine, we will definitely cooperate with them at all costs!"

"Bang!"

The locked iron door of the house from the outside was suddenly slammed open, and several people poured in. Someone with a gun in his hand, holding a light machine gun, someone with a torch in his hand, all at once illuminated the dim house!

"Everyone come out and go to the Central Turret to assemble, the Central Turret should know where it is! Hurry! The Eighth Route Army who took the lead shouted at the top of his throat!

"We are the Eighth Route Army, and if you want to leave the coal mine alive, you must obey our command now, go to the central turret, go now!"

The faces of the officers of Jin Suijun and the Central Army immediately turned red!

Just now, I swore that the Eighth Route Army was the same as Hanako, and it was impossible to attack the coal mine!

In the blink of an eye, the Eighth Route Army stood in front of him.

This is definitely a living slap in the face for them!

But after all, he was an officer, he knew the priorities, and after hearing the words that he could leave the coal mine alive, the two of them immediately shouted: "Listen to the command of the Eighth Route Army, and immediately go to the Central Artillery Tower to assemble!" ”

In less than ten minutes, the prisoners who were absent from work gathered in front of Li Hao, and a large area of black pressure was pressed.

A platoon of guards with torches and guns surrounded them in the middle!

After all the absenteeism arrived, Li Hao opened his mouth with his throat open!

"Hello everyone, we are the Eighth Route Army, and the purpose of attacking here today is one, to rescue everyone!"

"Now I declare that the guards in the coal mine have been killed by our Eighth Route Army, and from now on, you are free!"

"However, don't be too happy, because our crisis has not been resolved, and everyone, including our Eighth Route Army, is still in danger!"

"Everyone heard the sound of gunfire faintly coming from a few kilometers away! I'll tell you the truth, it was a reinforcement sent by the Japanese! ”

"I've already sent troops to stop them, but because the troops are too small, they will definitely not last long, so we must evacuate here as soon as possible, and then find a way to get rid of the pursuit of the Japanese!"

"Originally, my idea was to bring everyone back to our Eighth Route Army base, but then I rejected this idea!"

"Many of you are former Jin Sui Army, Central Army, and many people are officers, they must have their own ideas, and they don't want to go to our Eighth Route Army base area!"

"If I forcibly ask you to go over, it will be a threat to friendly forces, suspected of annexing friendly forces, and sabotaging the united front!"

"In addition, the reinforcements of the Japanese puppet army are close at hand, if we all march in a group, the goal is too big, once they catch up, it will be the whole army annihilated, and they will be wiped out!"

"So, I will give you two choices, either retreat with our Eighth Route Army and go to our Eighth Route Army base area, or retreat by yourself, where you want to go, from which direction, decide for yourself!"

"At the same time, when we attacked the coal mine, we also captured a lot of food, weapons and ammunition, if you choose to break through and retreat by yourself, I will share some of your weapons and ammunition and ten days' rations!"

Nearly 1,000 absentees immediately shouted, some people clamored for safety with the Eighth Route Army, some people clamored for their own safety, and no one could convince anyone!

At this time, the officer of the Central Army in the middle of the absenteeism suddenly shouted at the top of his voice: "Your Eighth Route Army really let us go, chose the direction of retreat by yourself, and also gave us food, weapons and ammunition!" ”

"The Eighth Route Army counts when it comes to talking!" Li Hao affirmed!

"Those who are willing to follow our Eighth Route Army stand on my left, and those who are willing to retreat by themselves stand on my right!"

"Because we have limited weapons and ammunition seized, we will definitely not be able to make a rifle per person, but we will definitely not let everyone leave empty-handed, so everyone must think carefully and start making a decision now!"

The middle-aged man who was hidden in the middle of absenteeism had already determined that Li Hao was the Eighth Route Army, and he couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart anymore, and immediately stood up: "Report to the chief, I am Liu Senyun, the deputy company commander of the first company of the third regiment of the Eighth Route Army's northwest base area in Jinxi, who was injured and comatose and captured half a year ago, and now I ask to return to the team!" ”

There is also the Eighth Route Army in the middle of absenteeism, which Li Hao did not expect!

Originally, I felt that I had too few troops at hand, but if they joined, it would definitely help me a lot!

Hurriedly stared at Liu Senyun and asked, "Company Commander Liu, how many Eighth Route Army are there in total among all the absenteeism, all of them stand up!" ”

"Plus me a total of 29, two platoon commanders, three squad leaders, the others are soldiers, and there are seven old Red Army soldiers in them!"

"Good!"

Li Hao shouted excitedly!

The seven old Red Army, if they use it well, can definitely form an infantry company, and immediately ordered: "Company Commander Liu, I will now appoint you as the captain of the escort team, and the twenty-eight soldiers are members of the escort team, divided into two squads, and now they will return to the team!" ”

"Now go to Company Commander Sun to get weapons and ammunition, each squad is equipped with a machine gun, and the others are equipped with a rifle, to familiarize you with weapons in half an hour, and then carry out the mission, is there a problem?"

Finally able to touch the long-lost weapon again, Liu Senyun was happy at that time, and immediately replied: "Don't worry, chief, we are all veterans, and we promise to complete the task!" ”
