Li Hongguang was indeed a little caught off guard.

Because their brigade is relatively mobile, sometimes they have to change places every day, in order to effectively crack down on those traitors and bullies and promote anti-Japanese propaganda to the people while avoiding the encirclement and suppression of devils.

Therefore, the people sent by Zhang Guanyi to deliver the news to Li Hongguang failed to find them in time, which led to them being surrounded.

Li Hongguang looked at the enemy who was surrounding him at the foot of the mountain, and shouted in a deep voice:

"Li Erniu!"

"Here!"

With the voice, Li Erniu quickly ran to Li Hongguang's side, glared at him and asked:

"Captain, what do you want me to do?"

Li Erniu has grown very fast in the past few months, and now he is Li Hongguang's vice captain.

Li Hongguang said to Li Erniu:

"You immediately take a few fighters, wait for the enemy to get closer, and look for an opportunity to break through and ask for help!"

"Yes!"

Li Erniu agreed, turned around and ran.

Li Hongguang reacted as soon as he found out that he was surrounded, gathered the team together, guarded the top of the mountain, and immediately reinforced.

There is no way to do it, although the number of enemies is not enough to encircle the entire mountain like an iron bucket, but once you choose to break through, you will have to pay a certain price.

He thought that the devil's operation team must have known about it and would definitely make deployments, but he didn't have time to pass the information on to him.

Therefore, he has to defend and wait for reinforcements from other brigades!

Shota Watanabe ordered to attack halfway up the mountain, and although some bullets would be wasted, he would be able to suppress the opponent in momentum, and perhaps it could also shake the opponent's morale and weaken the opponent's fighting spirit.

After all, no matter what one may say, more than 95 percent of the fighters of the guerrillas were once ordinary people, and it was impossible for them to have a strong psychological quality.

Once the momentum is suppressed, it is inevitable that there will be a sense of cowardice.

There's nothing wrong with thinking so, but Shota Watanabe overlooked one thing:

The reason why the common people were able to pick up guns and resist was completely because they were forced to have no way out, and most of them knew in their hearts that even if they fled, the Japanese would not let them go, so it was better to fight against the water.

When the two sides officially began to exchange fire, Shota Watanabe realized that this guerrilla force was not a soft persimmon as he thought.

Before the first wave of the assault could be fully launched, it was pressed back.

Li Hongguang also has four light machine guns now, how can he just let them hit him?

The obstruction of the offensive made Watanabe Shota very angry, and immediately ordered the third company of the puppet army to force it up.

The commander of the third company is called Hao Jiang, who was also an outstanding student of Fengtian Lecture Martial Arts Hall, and Duan Jinghe was at the same time, with different majors.

Unlike Duan Jinghe, Hao Jiang was originally very important after graduation, and at the time of the Huanggutun incident, he was already a battalion commander, and he rushed to the scene as soon as possible after the explosion.

It was after that incident that he was made a company commander and transferred to a second-rate unit.

After 918, the Northeast Army withdrew, and their second-rate troops were arranged at the end, and before they could wait for the train, the little devils arrived first.

At that time, Hao Jiang had only more than 110 people under him, his weapons were aging, and his ammunition was insufficient.

In desperation, Hao Jiang chose to surrender.

He has always had a lot of dissatisfaction with the Japanese, and a few days ago he had an argument with Ariyoshi Hayabusa because of the poor food.

If it weren't for the fact that the Japanese knew him very well and knew that he was an officer with real talent and learning, Ariyoshi Hayabusa would definitely kill him on the spot.

At that time, a well-known Japanese spy leader in later generations worked as a consultant next to Lao Zhang (not that I don't know, I was not allowed to write), and he knew the generals of the Northeast Army well.

Not to mention that Hao Jiang was a battalion commander at the time, even if he was a platoon commander, there would be detailed information about him in the filing cabinet of the Japanese military intelligence agency.

After hearing Shota Watanabe's order, Hao Jiang had a gloomy face, returned to his command position without saying a word, and called the two platoon commanders and squad leaders under him together and said in a deep voice:

"The devil asked us to go up and block the bullets, if you go, you will die, if you don't go, you will die, I want to ask you, how do you want to die, do you want to die under the devil's gun, and leave a good reputation after death, or do you want to die in the hands of your own compatriots and villagers, and always carry the reputation of 'traitor'?"

Everyone looked at each other and said in unison:

"Don't be a traitor!"

"Good!"

Hao Jiang slapped his thigh and said in a low voice:

"Go back immediately and inform everyone, and in five minutes, listen to my gunshot, let's rush down the mountain for dozens of meters, turn around and fight devils!"

Everyone said yes and turned to leave.

At the moment when Hao Jiang turned around, his orderly Xue Liang suddenly came to his side and whispered:

"Company commander, I'm afraid this won't work, right?"

Hao Jiang's eyes widened:

"Why not? Are you willing to be cannon fodder for devils? I don't care about you! ”

After saying that, he took out his pocket watch to check the time and prepared to start.

The moment he opened his pocket watch, his body instantly stiffened, and a sharp pain came from his waist, making his eyes widen in disbelief.

Xue Liang whispered in his ear:

"Company commander, I'm sorry, my brother can't help it."

A trace of blood overflowed from the corner of Hao Jiang's mouth, and his eyes gradually lost their brilliance.

Xue Liang drew a dagger, pushed Hao Jiang's body to the ground, and said to several puppet soldiers beside him:

"You guys stay here, if anyone dares to move, shoot immediately, I'll go and inform the imperial army!"

After saying that, he turned around and ran in the direction of Shota Watanabe.

Hao Jiang couldn't figure out why the closest people around him betrayed him.

The squad and platoon leaders under him did not wait for Hao Jiang's signal, and immediately realized that something was wrong, and after discussing it, several people decided to do it immediately.

But at this time, they were in the middle of Shota Watanabe and the Ninth Company, and as soon as they started, they were made dumplings, and several squad and platoon leaders were all killed, and the rest were forced to rush up the mountain immediately after surrendering.

Li Hongguang found out about the movement on the devil's side, but because he couldn't determine the reason, he didn't dare to move.

The seventy or eighty puppet soldiers who were forced to rush up were quickly pressed by machine guns under a hillside, not only dodging bullets from the top of the mountain, but also from behind them, and everyone's hearts were enveloped in despair.

Huadian.

The battle between Liu Cheng and Ono soon entered a tug-of-war.

No one fired first, and every now and then it was a grenade, so there were some casualties on both sides, and it was impossible to tell the winner in a short time.

Ono Taro is not in a hurry, this is his territory, and if the two sides are deadlocked until dawn, it will be more beneficial to him.

Liu Cheng also realized this, so he issued an order as soon as the two sides entered the tug-of-war, allowing each squad to retreat while fighting and meeting outside the city.
