The news of Linyi's victory spread, and the Itagaki Division, which was unwilling to fail, immediately dispatched the main force and launched a bombardment of the Linyi defenders again. The Japanese army's special high class also began to collect relevant information about the Linyi victory.

As Hu Biao had predicted earlier, the news about the 'special task force' was quickly discovered by the intelligence officers of the Japanese army. Upon learning of this news, the Japanese army's special high school naturally attached great importance to it.

As the special high school obtained more and more information, the news that the commander of the Jinling Dead Soldiers Battalion surnamed Hu was still alive was very likely to be the news of the captain of this special task force, and it was also found out by the intelligence officers of the Japanese army.

Upon hearing this news, the commander of the Japanese army near Linyi soon received instructions from the Special High School. Once the existence of this team is discovered, it must be reported as soon as possible, and heavy troops will be dispatched to encircle and annihilate it.

It is a pity that when the Japanese army launched a secret search, trying to find Hu Biao who was hiding behind enemy lines. Hu Biao had already taken the spy company with him, and left Linyi early the next morning and went to Shexian County, a few hundred miles away.

When he arrived in Shexian County, he received a warning telegram from the military commander, and Hu Biao also sneered: "It seems that my guess is correct, such strict protection measures have even allowed the Japanese army to find out the intelligence, and the intelligence protection ability is too poor." ”

After saying this, Hu Biao immediately said: "Call back to the military commander and ask him to strictly investigate the leak." Don't take the lurking little devils into detail, and find out those guys who eat inside and out. Every move of the troops is difficult to escape the surveillance of the little devils! ”

"Yes, Captain!"

Xu Sandao, who was staying next to him, also said with a little worry: "The little devil knows that we did this, will there be trouble?" ”

"There's definitely trouble! The problem is, even the military commanders don't know where we are, do you think the little devils know? Our position changes every day, and the little devil wants to block us, and he is almost on fire. But this matter needs to be vigilant.

In fact, the reason why I decided to bring the spy company here is to divert the attention of the little devils. We're in some danger, but Camp Shame will be safer. Later, call back the battalion headquarters and ask it to raise the alert level. ”

In the era when there were no satellites and no surveillance, it was undoubtedly very difficult to find out Hu Biao and his party with only manpower and telegrams. Even the military commanders who know Hu Biao the most don't know how many people Hu Biao has around him at this moment.

The spy company with him looks like the size of an ordinary company. But the actual combat effectiveness is no worse than that of an ordinary battalion. The number of the squad, the Japanese army did not know.

In addition, Hu Biao, who went out, was scattered, so even if he would be seen on the march, I believe that the Japanese army would not believe it, and the special task force only had this little man. The truth that the real is virtual and the virtual is the real is true, Hu Biao still knows.

What's more, the area where Hu Biao is currently located is itself an area full of anti-Japanese armed forces. Some bandits also carried the banner of anti-Japanese resistance. Coupled with the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army operating behind enemy lines in the vicinity, who knows the true identity of Hu Biao and his party?

After receiving Hu Biao's call back, Dai Li also felt a little hot on his face. Although the information was not leaked by the military commanders, many front-line generals also knew about Hu Biao's news in Linyi. Naturally, this information was leaked from the front line.

Taking this opportunity, Dai Li also sent a telegram to Li Zongren, informing him of the strict investigation of the leakage of secrets. There are not many people who are qualified to know the information, and as long as you are patient with the investigation, you will naturally be able to find out who leaked the secrets.

Li Zongren, who saw this telegram, naturally knew the seriousness of the leak, and immediately instructed all armies to launch a secret investigation and find out the person who leaked the secret. If this kind of lurker is not discovered, how can the military secrets of the troops be protected?

I have to say, sometimes it is very useful to look it up. As a large-scale investigation unfolded, Li Zongren soon learned that there was a staff officer of a certain general who sold information to strangers. In this way, large sums of money were exchanged.

Li Zongren, who learned the news, was also very angry and said: "For their own selfish interests, leaking military secrets is not an exaggeration for such people. The whole army was informed of the matter, and one was found to be severely punished. Traitors, everyone will be punished! ”

Perhaps Hu Biao didn't expect that because of the leakage of information about the special task force, the front-line troops set off a storm of counter-espionage. Many of the detailed works lurking in the army were found out in this investigation.

When the little devil learned this information, he also felt a little painful. The reason is very simple, to cultivate these fine works, the Japanese army's special high school courses also cost a lot of money. Now these meticulous works have been unearthed, and all their investment has been wasted.

The most serious thing is that they will also have a great impact on the military intelligence collection of the national army. If you really want to talk about it, the military commander and Li Zongren can also be regarded as a blessing in disguise. Clearing out these lurking scum in advance did not cause much damage.

The intelligence war seems to have no smoke of gunpowder, but the consequences are extremely serious. The leakage of a piece of military intelligence often determines the victory or defeat of a battle. This is also the reason why Hu Biao spared no effort to set up an intelligence group.

It took nearly a week for Hu Biao and his entourage to finally arrive in Shexian County. According to the information he heard when he came, Hu Biao knew that the main force of the Eighth Route Army had not yet established a base on the Shexian side and was still stationed in Jin Province.

Hu Biao, who learned the news, looked at the map captured from the Japanese army, patted his head and said: "Reading too little is really not a good thing." If I'm not mistaken, there will soon be a big battle on this road. ”

Looking at the captured map of the Japanese army, marking the highway from Handan to Changzhi, Hu Biao remembered the victories fought by the 129th Division in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, and soon remembered the two battles of Shentouling and Xiangtangpu. From the perspective of time, it should be in the near future.

After finding Xu Sandao and letting him reconnoiter along the Handchang Highway, Hu Biao and his entourage also began to move to Jin Province. In Hu Biao's opinion, if he has the opportunity to participate in these two classic ambush battles, Hu Biao doesn't mind helping the field.

Pointing to a county town on the map, Hu Biao quickly said: "Sandao, you take someone to reconnoiter the situation around this county seat, and then find a safe place." When you get there, scatter the reconnaissance and collect information on the little devils. ”

"Yes!"

It took another two days for Hu Biao and his entourage to finally arrive at a mountain next to Licheng. Looking at the temporary camp selected by Xu Sandao, Hu Biao also smiled and said, "Not bad! God bless, let the soldiers set up tents and rest here for the past two days. ”

"Yes!"

The Huang family, who had traveled a long distance with the spy company, although they felt that it was hard, they still followed it. In addition to the fact that walking is a little hard, they don't have to worry about food, clothing, and shelter. When they get to the place, someone will arrange it for them.

Eat well, sleep well, and as long as you follow the spies every day, it can't be called too hard. Compared to the soldiers of the spy company, who have backpacks and weapons and ammunition, the things they carry are not heavy. After walking for so long, I slowly got used to it.

At this time, the Huang family also really knew that being a soldier was really hard. Running around like this every day, if you are an ordinary person, I am afraid that it will be difficult to persevere. If it weren't for the guidance of Hu Biao and his entourage, the Huang family would not have been able to go down such a long way.

Knowing that they finally didn't have to leave, the Huang family also breathed a sigh of relief and helped set up a tent and a stove. Hu Biao summoned several platoon commanders and assigned corresponding tasks. The first thing to do is to find out what is going on in the neighborhood.

Pointing to two places on the map, he said: "Sandao, tomorrow we will send people to focus on reconnoitring these two areas, if you see someone scouting nearby, you must hide it and don't alarm the other party." God forbid, send someone into the city to find out the situation. ”

"Yes!"

"On the way here, I emphasized many times that this was a guerrilla zone of the Eighth Route Army, and it was not allowed to clash with them when going out. Try to avoid it if you can, and don't reveal our identity when you can't. Do you understand? ”

"Yes!"

After assigning the task, Hu Biao and his entourage rested on the first night they arrived in Licheng. By the next day, Hu Biao still had one squad on duty in the camp, and the rest of the troops dispersed. Along the line of the road, a close reconnaissance was launched.

What surprised Hu Biao was that when Hu Biao took Xu Sandao and his party to the Xiangtangpu. Hu Biao soon saw a continuous stream of cars on the road, as well as the main force of the Eighth Route Army lurking in the nearby mountains.

Looking at the cars driving on the road, Xu Sandao was also surprised and said: "It seems that the Eighth Route Army is the idea of fighting this automobile transport team. What shall we do? Do you want to help? ”

"It's nature! See that hillside? Chen Qiang, take your three platoons over and dig fortifications to build a blocking position. As for weapons, I'll send them to you later. If nothing else, the little devils in the city should rush to help.

In addition, pay attention to the air defense alert, it is daytime, and there are a dozen here, and the little devils are afraid that they will send planes to support. Three knives, you go to the side of the mountain beam, build an artillery position. Sniper team, touch the past and don't alarm the Eighth Route Army in front! ”

"Yes, Captain!"

"Spread out, act!"

Even Hu Biao didn't expect that he would come so coincidentally that he would have the opportunity to experience this ambush battle in person. Since it happened, Hu Biao would definitely help the field. One thing he knew very well was that the equipment of the Eighth Route Army at this time was very poor.

At present, the Japanese cars on the road are very long, and there are at least a hundred cars at a glance. Such a large convoy was escorted by at least one Japanese brigade. If it really starts, it will be difficult for the Eighth Route Army to annihilate it.

can add Hu Biao, who happened to come in time, maybe there is a chance to leave these little devils behind. The reason is that Hu Biao has more than a dozen mortars in his hands, plus machine guns and light and heavy machine guns, which will bring deadly pressure and threat to the little devils.

Judging from the scale of the Eighth Route Army that participated in the ambush, Hu Biao believed that the officer who commanded the battle must have been a senior general of the Eighth Route Army. This also means that perhaps the task of this trip to Jin Province can be completed.

took the opportunity to help the field, let the Eighth Route Army owe him a favor, and then let them send the Huang family to Yan'an, Hu Biao felt that the Eighth Route Army should not refuse. No matter what, Camp Commander Hu of the Jinling Dead Soldiers Battalion is also famous at this time!
