Chapter 68: Cold Sweat

Guan Li knew that the sub-district and the original county party committee had organized dog fighting teams several times to get rid of these three hardcore traitors, including Wang Tieshi. But because these guys were heavily guarded, they failed to succeed, not to mention the loss of several fighters. Because of this, his identity was exposed, and he could only be transferred to the second district as the director of the Armed Forces Committee.

The people sent should not only have a lot of experience, but also have a more flexible way of working. The most important thing is to be able to stand on your feet and get the work going. At the moment, no matter who comes to Hubei, it is almost equivalent to starting over. All the situations have to be reopened. It is estimated that it is precisely because of this situation that the new secretary of the county party committee has always had a difficult birth.

Guan Li skipped Li Ziyuan's complaint about the slow reconstruction of the county party committee and the poor flow of intelligence work, and instead focused on Li Ziyuan's previous remarks. Regarding Li Ziyuan's worries, Guan Li thought for a while and said, "Captain, do you think it will be the little devil who will take advantage of our current situation to drag us on the mountain east of Qiaokou." ”

"And then mobilize other Japanese puppet troops from other directions, outflank us from all sides, and directly surround us here? The mountainous area to the east of Qiaokou is not high, but the area is indeed vast. However, if you go from Wangjiagou to Qiaokou, it is much smaller than the mountainous area in the east of Hubei. ”

"And the line from Qiaokou to Wangjiagou, although it is also a mountainous area. However, the mountains in this area are relatively gentle, and it is the main agricultural area in the eastern mountainous area of Hubei. At least in the mountainous area west of Xinghuagou, there is no deep mountain old forest that we passed by when we took a detour to Pingchuan last time, and the forests in this area are very sparse. Once the devils are surrounded on all sides, it is not very difficult to find us. ”

"This tactic was adopted during the devil's sweep last year. The original Hubei base camp suffered a loss. Fortunately, the sub-district cadre regiment that was operating in Hubei at that time had a very timely reinforcement, and the devil's roundabout troops were not many, so the Hubei base camp did not suffer a big loss. ”

"At that time, the devils did not have many troops to sweep the eastern mountainous areas of Hubei, with the Japanese army in Hubei as the backbone, plus the puppet county garrison and a regiment of the puppet Jinnan Jianguo Army, and the soldiers were divided into two routes. At that time, the Laohubei Base Battalion believed that the number of enemy troops was not large, and there were fighters to use. He concentrated all his forces and wanted to fight an ambush at the junction of Hubei and Ludong. ”

"As a result, I didn't expect that there were indeed not many people sweeping the North Road of the little devils, but they were dominated by Japanese soldiers. The old camp at that time was attracted to the mountainous area at the junction of Hubei and Ludong. On the other hand, the Japanese puppet army, which was sweeping towards our base area, quickly returned to flank the old base camp. ”

Although the old battalion commander at that time reacted quickly, he also found out that something was wrong. But before he could retreat, he was surrounded by devils. If it weren't for the divisional backbone regiment because the Japanese puppet army suddenly turned back, and followed them from the east to relieve the siege, I'm afraid the old backbone battalion at that time would have been finished. ”

"I'm thinking about the situation of the little devil today, although it is not quite the same as last year. But what you just said reminded me of the tactics they used to deal with the old camp when the devils swept up last year. When the sub-district cadre regiment rescued the old cadre camp, it was still the way I led. ”

"The only difference is that when the little devil was sweeping to the east, he suddenly killed a squadron of Japanese troops and some puppet troops in front of him, trapping the Hubei base camp in a mountain forest in the third district. In the end, although the old base battalion did not suffer much losses, it sacrificed the battalion commander. ”

Although Guan Li's words were not too much, and he did not explain the things of the old camp last year very thoroughly, it was like an initiation for Li Ziyuan. Indeed, the mountainous area in the eastern part of Hubei is vast. However, the mountainous area between Wangjiagou and Qiaokou is not large.

As Guan Li said, the mountains in this area are dominated by shrubs, lacking the kind of large areas that can provide enough seclusion for themselves. And with the exception of a small area north of Qiaokou, most of the mountains are relatively gentle and not very high. This kind of terrain brings a certain convenience to their own activities, but it will also facilitate the clearing of the Japanese army.

Yesterday afternoon, he made a sneak attack on the east side of Qiaokou and fought piecemeal, and with the military quality of a junior officer of a little devil, it was easy to judge his approximate starting position. If they mobilize the fallen horses, or even the Japanese puppet army in Hubei County, to outflank their own back roads, then they will be surrounded in this area if they can't do it well.

It doesn't matter if the Japanese puppet army is fallen, they don't have that much strength. Even if he encounters him, Li Ziyuan has nothing to worry about, it's a big deal to concentrate on hitting him. According to his own firepower configuration, even if he can't win, he won't suffer too much loss.

But what Li Ziyuan is most worried about is not the enemy on the surface, but the enemy army that is now hidden under the surface of the water and has not yet been exposed. The speed and efficiency of the actions of the Japanese puppet army, Li Ziyuan is still very clear. From Hubei County to Pingchuan and Luoma and Qiaokou, there are good mountain roads.

The little devils are not only mobile themselves, but they also have trucks. Even if they set off from Hubei County, if they took a car, it would probably take two hours at most, and they would arrive at the Luoma stronghold. Even if it is a march on foot, six or seven hours is enough to arrive.

When the time comes, starting from Luoma Town, and inserting directly into the direction of the leopard's mouth and Zaohuagou behind him, then it is possible to surround himself directly here. At that time, even if he can stand out, he will have to pay a great price, and there is even the possibility of the entire army being wiped out here.

The mountainous area from Wangjiagou to Qiaokou to Luoma is still limited anyway. If the devils adopt the tactics of encircling on all sides and searching the mountains layer by layer, the scope of their own and troop activities will become smaller and smaller, until they are discovered by the Japanese puppet army. And judging from the comparison of troops and firepower, once the devil finds himself, it will be difficult to escape.

Thinking of this, Li Ziyuan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He even couldn't believe that the little devil would exert so much effort to deal with his small guerrilla force. But the current situation makes him have to believe that the devil is trying to deal with himself, and he has put so much effort into it.

Li Ziyuan, who understood this, didn't know whether he should feel honored or depressed. He was only a guerrilla of 100 people, and he didn't even have enough for the 8 of 180 people. The little devil not only took out so much power to deal with himself, but also thought of so many conspiracies, he really valued himself too much.

Li Ziyuan, who put so much effort into dealing with himself for Luo Hekanshiro, couldn't tell whether he was happy or worried, but he didn't expect it. Although he has only been in Hubei for half a year, and his troops are only a few dozen people, at best, half a company, but the movements he has made far exceed the original old Hubei base cadre battalion.

After arriving in Hubei, the first battle killed the senior combat staff of the First Army, and the second battle blew up the material warehouses of the Japanese puppet army to sweep the base area in the Taihang Mountains, and caused the first damage to the Japanese army's plan to build the Baijin Railway. The third battle was even more straightforward, not only ending the three most important strongholds of the Japanese army in Hubei County, but also bringing great losses to the Japanese puppet army.

A squadron deployed by the Japanese army in the eastern mountains of Hubei was basically eaten by him, not to mention that he completely destroyed the pseudo-Hubei County Garrison Brigade. Although in the third battle, he was a good shade under the big tree, mainly with the help of the divisional backbone regiment of the old superiors, but after all, he led it single-handedly.

He has done so many good deeds in Hubei County, and it is basically impossible not to pay attention to him in terms of Japanese character and habits. Especially Kamishiro Rakuhe, he regards him as a big problem. Kanshiro Rakuai, who was bent on going further in the army, didn't want to capsize in his small ditch.

It's just that Li Ziyuan never stationed in any village during the repair and training of the troops, and basically carried out it in the mountains and forests. Even if you occasionally enter a village, you will not stay in that village for more than three days. Kanshiro Rakuai wanted to catch this cunning guy, and his nose and hands were not long enough for the time being.

And Li Ziyuan rarely stationed in the village, and also avoided the eyes of the ghostly Japanese spy who was never found. As for the plainclothes team sent by Kamishiro Rakuga, after leaving the county seat, it was like a fish out of water. It's not that you can't find anything, it's just that you can't go back.

The whereabouts of Li Ziyuan's subordinates have never been found, so Luo Hekanshiro always has the feeling of a thorn in his back. He knew that the cunning and restless guy would come back out of the mountain once he recovered. And once this guy comes out of the mountain again, he is bound to turn Hubei upside down at one time.

Although Luo Hekanshiro slaughtered more than 100 ordinary people in Wangjiagou, he temporarily gaged his boss and used it to cover up his fault for failing to do his best. But for Li Ziyuan's department, Kamishiro did not relax in any way. This time, the Hubei public security purge plan was specially formulated in order to completely solve his confidants in World War I.

However, for Li Ziyuan at the moment, he can't control what Luo Hekanshiro thinks. But what to do next, he can't help but think carefully. After perceiving his opponent's general plan, Li Ziyuan led the team to retreat without saying a word.

But when Li Ziyuan led the team to retreat to Xinghuagou, he received a report from Liu Lianming in front of him that a large number of Japanese puppet troops were found in the direction of Xinghuagou, and they were heading west while searching. The three squads on the flank also reported that traces of the Japanese puppet army were also found in the direction of Leopard's Pass to the south. The Japanese puppet army, which had been dispatched from the dismount, was also encircling them at full speed.

After receiving the report of the three-sided intelligence, Li Ziyuan couldn't help but chuckle in his heart. If you add the Japanese puppet army that Qiaokou must have dispatched at the moment, he has fallen into the encirclement of the Japanese puppet army. The only good thing now is that the Japanese puppet army has not yet discovered its exact traces.

With this discovery, Li Ziyuan really felt very lucky. If Guan Li hadn't reminded himself, I am afraid that in a few hours, he would have been surrounded by the Japanese army around Wangjiagou. When the time comes, there is no way to fight by yourself, and it is difficult to run away with so many recruits.

Although the current situation is still not optimistic, it is relatively fortunate to be surrounded in the area of Wangjiagou. At least now the Japanese puppet army has not found their traces, and the room for maneuver in this area is much larger than that in the area of Wangjiagou.
