Li Ping handed the telescope to the artillery commander and asked, "If you are the attacking party, where are you going to put the artillery position?" ”

The artillery commander was stunned when he heard this, took the telescope and observed, Li calmly waited, and followed the artillery commander all the way to investigate.

Half an hour later, the artillery commander looked at the position of the Eighth Route Army in the distance, put down the binoculars, and said: "Brigade commander, after my survey, there are three suitable locations for placing artillery positions. ”

After speaking, he pointed out the locations one by one, Li Ping smiled and said to the guards next to him: "Go, let the political commissar arrange for the soldiers to come and plant explosives in these three locations." ”

The guard ran away, and the artillery commander frowned, and asked: "Brigade commander, devils are not fools, they will carefully investigate if there are traces." ”

Li Ping smiled, he knew what the artillery commander meant, as long as there were traces of groundbreaking in these three places, how could the devil not be careful.

Li Ping took back the binoculars and said, "In this regard, we have to look at the capabilities of our special combat team. ”

After Li Ping finished speaking, he turned around and left, he taught Huzi's special combat team that it was not in vain to waste so much energy.

The artillery commander looked at Li Ping's back and touched his head, but he couldn't figure out the situation, so he had to turn around and direct the soldiers who came over to plant explosives at the predetermined location.

The troops of the five regiments were quickly assembled, and Li Ping transferred a new regiment to the chief of staff, asking him to set off immediately with the troops of the two regiments.

The sudden retreat of the troops from all directions of the Independent Brigade made Seishiro Itakami, who received the telegram, feel a little unusual, and vaguely feel that his life-and-death battle with the Independent Brigade was not long after.

"Order the intelligence department, the reconnaissance unit, to find out for me the movements of the independent brigade."

"Hi"

Itakami Seishiro ordered the troops to begin converging on him, and as soon as the information was confirmed, he would go straight in the direction of Li Ping.

The devil's movements were fast, and Li Ping was not hiding, so they quickly found out Li Ping's plans.

The temperature of the night was even lower, and after the signal soldiers ran into the tent, the cold air made Itagami Seishiro shiver slightly.

"Report to the commander of the division, the independent brigade has set up a defensive line in Xiaowangyi, and the troops are all gathered there."

Itakami Seishiro's eyes lit up, and he took the telegram from the signal soldier and read it.

"Yo Xi, it seems that the Independent Brigade wants to fight to the death and fight a decisive battle with the Imperial Army."

Itakami Seishiro was very happy, the smile on his face became more and more, he was also afraid that the independent brigade would escape all the way, and fighting in winter was very unfavorable to the troops, especially this encirclement and suppression, the materials sent by the North China Command were on the way to the front-line troops, so many troops, the logistical pressure was too great.

Now the independent brigade is going to fight a positional war with itself, and as long as it takes their position in a short time, the materials prepared by the county seat of Guangping County will be enough.

Knowing the movements of the Independent Brigade, Itagawa Seishiro put down his mind and immediately sent a telegram to the other two troops, preparing to gather here to rest overnight and set off tomorrow to fight the Independent Brigade.

Itakami Seishiro knew about the movements of Li Ping's Independent Regiment Brigade, and Li Ping also learned the news that Itakami Seishiro's troops were preparing to gather.

"Brigade commander, the devils are gathered together to be a nearly full division, and our defensive pressure is too great." , the commissar was sad, originally the independent brigade eliminated the artillery wing of the 5th division, an infantry wing, and then several other regiments also eliminated a lot of enemies.

But Banhuan Seishiro transferred another artillery wing from Taiyuan, and now it looks like in addition to the logistics wing, the strength of the Fifth Division is still strong.

Li Ping swallowed what was in his mouth and took a sip of hot water, he knew very well in his heart that there were now more than 10,000 troops on the position, and everyone was not sure that they were fighting more with less, not to mention that the strength of the devil was still very strong.

Li Ping handed the political commissar a cigarette and said: "Political commissar, the devils are sweeping all the way, and the materials in their hands now must have consumed a lot, as long as the chief of staff can interrupt the logistics route, we will be safe." ”

Li Ping's words did not let the political commissar let go of his worries, the two sat by the brazier and roasted the charcoal fire, Li Ping looked at the political commissar's still cautious expression, and smiled mysteriously: "Political commissar, don't forget the back hand we arranged at the beginning." ”

A thunderbolt flashed in the political commissar's mind, and he immediately stood up, his arm was shaking, and he looked at Li Ping and laughed.

The next day, Li Ping watched the sun rise, and finally had a trace of warmth, picked up the gun and patrolled the position, looking at the tight position, Li Ping looked forward to the arrival of Itakami Seishiro.

On the other side, Itakami Seishiro was also urging the troops to set off, the sooner the decisive battle, the better, the gold had fallen into the hands of the independent brigade for too long, and he was afraid of accidents.

The more frightened he was, the worse the situation became, and Seishiro Itakami received a telegram from the North China Command on the way, his face bloodless.

"Yaga, how can you move so fast?".

Itakami Seishiro was about to go crazy, and the telegram from the North China Command told him that the gold had been transferred to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, which was the exact information given by the internal intelligence officers.

The North China Devil Command now has a request, asking all units to quickly destroy the enemy who is resisting, fight all the way to the hinterland of the Eighth Route Army, and get the gold back.

Itakami Seishiro is now weak-hearted, if the gold really can't be recovered, he will wipe out the independent brigade, and the future will not be easy.

Thinking of this, Itakami Seishiro was murderous, and his blood-red eyes made the adjutant next to him stand on end.

"Baga, order the troops to speed up, be sure to quickly defeat the independent brigade, and go straight to the hinterland of the Eighth Route Army."

Seishiro Itakami, who is no longer very sane, now has a thought in his mind that the gold must be recovered.

The devil's actions are very fast, and with the introduction of gold, the encirclement and suppression troops from all walks of life have been engaged with the Eighth Route Army.

North China was suddenly filled with gunsmoke, and Itakami Seishiro here also led his troops to the front of the position of the Independent Brigade.

"Yo Xi, order the troops to rest for two hours, the artillery prepare the artillery positions, and we must quickly break down the defensive line in front."

"Hi"

The actions of the devil on the other side were in Li Ping's eyes, and Li Ping looked at the movements of the devil's artillery and looked forward to it.

Huzi walked up to Li Ping, picked up the binoculars and looked at it, and said: "Brigade commander, we cleaned up the traces very cleanly, and the explosives were buried very deeply. ”

As soon as Huzi finished speaking, the political commissar came over and happened to hear it, picked up Huzi's telescope and watched.

Watching the devil's artillery towards one of the locations, the hearts of several people raced and they looked expectant.

"Hurry, hurry, there it is." , The political commissar muttered to himself, and his whole body began to tremble, Li Ping and Huzi turned their heads and smiled.

Watching the devil artillery work again, the three of them suddenly laughed, and Li Ping looked at the busy devil artillery, full of murderous energy.
