The sky was getting dark, and the devils and the Imperial Association troops on the hillside finally withdrew.

Those who followed these devils and puppet soldiers down the mountain, in addition to firewood, there were also a lot of corpses......

I don't know how many devils looked at those corpses, and when they looked at the mountains and the surrounding mountains and fields that were gradually shrouded in twilight, the eyes of countless little devils were full of resentment......

The same is true in the eyes of Sakai and Eguchi at the head of the castle!

"The little devil's tanks have not been withdrawn!"

Gou Dong shouted excitedly, Kang Ting, who drew a dog-like character on the corner of the wall that only he recognized, and Shi Yuan, a thin monkey who was closing his eyes to recuperate, all got up and began to stretch when they heard this, their faces full of excitement......

"Captain, it seems that the little devil really doesn't believe in evil, thinking that with a few tanks, he can break our tactical ......"

Li Dakou also said excitedly on the side: "Why don't you let me take the militia to try the fire first?" The militiamen under my command have said that they have fought a lot in this battle, but this tank has really not been fought, and I want to accumulate experience in fighting tanks now......"

Zhang Ran didn't speak, just held a telescope and looked at the long snake formation formed by the five tanks at the head of the city and outside the city.

Finally, for the first time in a few days, a fire was lit in the city, and the devils in the city also cheered, as if they were excited that they would finally have to grit their teeth to resist the cold tonight......

The tanks and the devils outside the city are still holding their positions, and there doesn't seem to be any movement......

It seems that the little devil really thinks that the detachment has run out of donkey skills, and there is nothing to do about them......

Zhang Ran held the binoculars, his brows furrowed, it seemed that he didn't hear the words of Kang Ting, Li Dakou and the others at all, and he didn't move for a long time!

"Captain, give the order, there's nothing to hesitate about!"

Kang Ting opened his mouth and looked at Zhang Ran with some grievance - he also wanted to knock out a two-car little devil's tank as soon as possible, so that the little devils could quickly continue to retreat back into the county town after knowing that their turtle formation was useless in front of the detachment!

Only in this way can he be busy and go back to Yanggou Town as soon as possible to see if Lu Yan has given birth......

Li Dakou and the others were also urging, although they were not in a hurry to go home to see if their wives had given birth to sons, but they looked at the tanks of those devils outside the city...... I always feel that those tanks are like the fat and oily lumps of meat, and if you don't rush up and take a bite, you will be uncomfortable all over your body......

"Don't you think that the little devil's behavior is a bit abnormal?"

Zhang Ran finally put down the binoculars and looked at a few people: "The little devil suffered such a big loss in our hands before, and he beat us on the mountain during the day only with the ability to parry and not fight back, and it is estimated that they all want to gnaw us alive - but you see, the little devil now, not only does he not seem to be worried about our tanks to deal with them, but outside the city, the little devils in the city are also like no one, they should eat, drink, sing, and sing...... Do you think this is normal? ”

Everyone also felt a little abnormal, but they said one after another: "The key is that the little devil's three-plate axe, everything that should be done is done, even if they don't want to eat or sing, then there is nothing they can do with us - there is no way to eat or drink, right?" ”

"No, no, no—the little devil isn't as simple as you think!"

Zhang Ran waved his hand, he was sure that with the personality of the little devil, it would never be so simple!

He has watched a lot of anti-Japanese dramas, but he has also watched a lot of documentary documents and records about little devils!

Although these documentary documents and the like seem much heavier than watching anti-Japanese dramas, from these documentary documents, Zhang Ran also understands more about how cunning the little devil is!

Many, many times, when our army almost felt that it had won, it was overturned by the little devils, and not only lost the victory in hand, but also suffered heavy casualties in the end!

Zhang Ran didn't want to let the same tragedy happen in his own hands because of his own carelessness!

"Vice Captain Kang!"

After thinking about it for a long time, Zhang Ran opened his mouth and ordered, let Kang Ting Shiyuan, the temporary commander only be responsible, and the thin monkey followed himself, touched through the No. 4 tunnel, and got closer to see if the little devil had any tricks!

"Captain, detect before the formation, let's just go, how can we let you take risks!"

As soon as they heard Zhang Ran's order, everyone spoke in unison and resolutely opposed it.

"It's an order!"

Zhang Ran ordered to stop everyone's dispute, and said in his heart, you guys, now that you have won a few battles, and your tails are cocked, it's rare that you don't have any points in your hearts?

Let you go to the front of the battle to investigate, driven by pride and complacency, I am afraid that you will unconsciously sloppy things......

When the time comes, something goes wrong, but I don't know how many warriors and militias will die!

It's not that he doesn't want to remind these guys of the truth that their arrogant soldiers will be defeated, but he knows that this kind of thing, relying on reminders is useless at all - only after suffering a big loss, they will be vigilant again!

It's really a big loss, it's too late to say anything!

Therefore, Zhang Ran would rather take some risks and get close to the devil's position through the tunnel to detect, rather than wait for the trap of the little devil to really fall into the trap of the little devil and watch the miserable situation of a bunch of soldiers and militiamen who died in vain, crying and crying......

The No. 4 pit is one of several hidden large pits outside Dongjiang County.

In fact, all the tunnels inside and outside Dongjiang City add up to dozens of large and small......

Dozens of tunnels, that's not a small amount of work!

Fortunately, Zhang Ran thought very early on that the devils would definitely hoard heavy troops to attack the base area, and at the same time, he also knew that if he wanted to defeat the devils by going head-to-head with the devils, nine times out of ten he would lose very badly, even if he was lucky enough to win, it would be to kill 10,000 enemies and lose 8,000 himself!

Therefore, he set the main operational policy of using mine warfare and tunnel warfare to cooperate early on!

Therefore, the detachment not only hoarded a huge number of mines early, but also dug countless tunnels outside the Dongjiang Cangshui City in case of emergency.

These tunnels, avoiding the main route of the little devils' march, are all hidden between the surrounding fields.

The way of the tunnel, of course, can not be the same as the tunnel dug by the common people, all the way of people digging into it, but the way of opening a ditch on the ground, and then tamping the two walls of the tunnel, laying a wooden board on the top, and then laying soil on the wooden board......

In this way, when digging the tunnels, a large amount of manpower can be discharged - in fact, under the great mobilization, all the tunnels outside the city were completed from the start of construction to the completion of the excavation, but the work of 2,000 men in just over a day......

All the tunnels are made up of several large tunnels and countless smaller ones!

In large tunnels, warriors can even trot side by side, while small tunnels often go in one direction, and if someone comes from the opposite side, one of them has to burrow into the hollow in the wall that resembles the wrong lane of a country road.

In order to avoid the little devil's poison gas bombs, or someone mixing into it, at the intersection in the tunnel, there are not only militia guards, but also all kinds of obstructions, which can be used at any time to block the fork when the little devil finds the tunnel and throws poison gas bombs into the tunnel to prevent the spread of poison gas......

But in general, as soon as you enter the tunnels, you can pass through these tunnels and reach all the tunnels and exits outside the city......

It can be said that these tunnels are the huge underground transportation network that surrounds the Dongjiang Cangshui County......

In fact, such a pit is easy to be discovered by little devils.

The reason for this is of course very simple, that is, although the soil covered on it is still quite thick, if someone steps on it, as long as you pay close attention, you can still hear the sound above the tunnel and the solid ground, which will be slightly different......

That's when the mines of the detachment came into play!

A large number of mines are planted around the county seat, and the law of their burial is known only to the detachment and the common people, and although they clear mines by themselves, although there are dangers, it is much simpler......

But for the little devils who have been bombed before, these places, unless they have to, they are not willing to step further at all......

In this case, the little devils and puppet soldiers, if they want to discover these tunnels, it will naturally become delusional!

Countless soldiers and militiamen are waiting silently in this tunnel, unless the soldiers and militiamen who change shifts come over, and their eating, drinking, and Lazar are all solved in the tunnel......

It was also very dark in the tunnel, and it was not until he received the notice that Zhang Ran arrived, and a candle was lit in the tunnel every ten or twenty meters to illuminate him......

"Captain......

"Captain!"

Seeing Zhang Ran, countless soldiers greeted each other in a low voice, their eyes shining brightly in the faint light of the candles.

"Good work, comrades!"

Zhang Ran responded in a low voice, trying to remember their faces, but unfortunately he couldn't remember them at all.

Because the light is too dim, and because there are too many people......

But he believes that this land will remember them, and the children and grandchildren who can live happily on this land in a few decades can also remember!

Remember that there are some people, at this difficult moment of life and death for the survival of this nation, so many people are crammed into this small space underground, silently enduring and waiting, waiting for the opportunity to fight to the death for freedom and independence......

"We don't work hard, you work hard, captain!"

"Actually, speaking of which, the little devil is the hardest, he was burned so badly by us, he went to chop firewood, and beat us so badly......"

Some of the warriors and militia slapped their ass, while others responded to Zhang Ran with witty remarks......

In the tunnel, he trotted with his waist hunched over, or crawled on his knees, for more than half an hour, Zhang Ran and the thin monkey entered the No. 4 pit - he felt that his waist was about to break!

For a big man of nearly 1.8 meters, such a pit is really not friendly at all.

"Dong Daming, the captain of the main battle militia team in Kwailin Town, has met Captain Zhang!"

As soon as he entered the No. 4 tunnel, a thin and small militia captain immediately saluted and reported, and many militiamen also bowed their bodies to salute Zhang Ran.

"Don't be so polite in this place!"

Zhang Ran rubbed his waist that was about to break and said, "Which exit is closest to the position of the little devil's third tank?" Take me there now! ”

"Captain, come with me!"

Dong Daming responded and trotted all the way ahead!

Looking at Dong Daming's appearance of trotting all the way with his neck slightly hunched over, Zhang Ran felt for the first time that this son was short, and sometimes it was actually quite advantageous - anyway, if he wanted to let himself persist in this underground for a day and a night, it would be worse than killing himself!
