Seeing the typical infantry offensive tactics of the Japanese army in front of him, Li Ziyuan nodded, but after shaking his head again, he turned the telescope in other directions. Although the 93-type telescope used by the Japanese non-commissioned officer in his hand has a magnification of only four times, and the field of vision is also very limited, he still accurately captures the appearance of Japanese puppet troops in several other directions.

But after this observation, Li Ziyuan breathed a sigh of relief. I withdrew in time, otherwise I would have been really blocked in that broken temple by the Japanese puppet army. Although the Japanese puppet army has completed the encirclement of itself, it has not yet found itself. As long as you don't find yourself, you have a way to stand out.

And in the Xishan where he is located, although if the Japanese puppet army sets up a heavy machine gun here, it can suppress the entire ruined temple. But the top of the west hill to the place where you are is quite steep. Even if the Japanese puppet army seized the West Mountain, if they wanted to go down to the broken temple at the bottom of the mountain, they could only go down from their right flank.

And this area is a high-pitched and grassy area, which is enough for the troops to get a good shelter. As soon as it gets dark, he can lead his team along the left flank of the mountain and rush out to the south. There, the Japanese puppet army could only put one squad at most, and as long as one opening was opened, it could drill into another mountain with dense forests along the direction of the mountain. Wherever you go, it's up to you.

Just when Li Ziyuan was thinking about how to break through, the situation under the mountain had changed. After rushing into the broken temple and not finding resistance, the Japanese puppet army, who was searching for the broken temple, stepped on the tricky mine he arranged and was blown up, and a puppet army squad directly lost its combat effectiveness.

And the Japanese squad in the second echelon of their follow-up, after continuous explosions sounded in the ruined temple. When he changed from a battle formation to a firepower suppression formation, he stepped on a mine modified by Li Ziyuan with a Type 97 grenade. As soon as the two crooked machine gunners got down and set up their machine guns, they were blown up into the sky by grenades under them.

Looking at the puppet army squad that served as a search for the forward, and a Japanese squad that served as fire support outside the ruined temple, they were bombed before they could engage the enemy and suffered heavy casualties. Yamashita's annoyed and angry Luo Hekanshiro Shaozo, despite the fact that the puppet army had not yet withdrawn, directly ordered the artillery to open fire and completely wipe out the ruined temple and the enemy troops who might be hidden in the ruined temple.

The Japanese artillery naturally had no scruples, and after receiving the order, two infantry guns and one mountain artillery directly concentrated their fire on the broken temple. But the two mortar operators of the puppet army hesitated. Anyway, there were their brothers in that ruined temple.

These puppet soldiers are all people in Hubei County, and they don't look up when they bow their heads in ten miles and eight townships, and some even have relatives. It doesn't matter if they're all dead, but there are still alive and wounded there, so there's nothing left when the cannon fires. Eight ways to fight, the people hate, if their own people are killing, what is the way to live?

Originally, because the Pingchuan Town munitions depot was bombed, the Baijin Railway was attacked, and the senior combat staff officer who was valued by the division commander was also lost, and he was continuously reprimanded by the division commander. If it weren't for his teacher at the Army Non-commissioned Officer School, the current chief of staff of the division and regiment, who had good things to say about him, I am afraid that he would have received a ticket back to China by now.

The munitions warehouse in Pingchuan Town was an important material base for the 36th Division's sweep of Taihang Mountain. There was not only a large amount of ammunition and provisions, but also a large amount of explosives specially transferred from the northeast for the construction of the Baijin Railway. The bombing of a railroad under construction was not a big deal, and those guys clearly lacked experience in sabotaging railways.

Although the railway line was bombed, the damage was not serious. Just replace two rails and a few sleepers, and you can repair it completely. However, the bombing of the munitions depot and the destruction of a large amount of munitions and ammunition made the division commander extremely angry and strictly ordered himself to completely exterminate this earth and eight roads within the specified time.

And if he, the first person responsible, can't atone for his crimes as soon as possible, he will not only be sent back to China this time, but will also be sent to a military court. Therefore, in this sweep, Luo Hekanshiro mobilized almost the entire garrison, in addition to the original squadron stationed in Hubei, he also transferred a few squads from his own troops stationed in other counties, which can be said to have concentrated all the troops that could be concentrated.

With the help of his old classmates, he finally found out where these bold people were hiding. But at the moment, the two squads of the forward, before they saw the face of the enemy, were killed and wounded by the enemy's deceitful mines, and at the moment, Luo Aikanshiro, who was already angry, saw the hesitation of the puppet gunners.

In front of Wang Tieshi beside him, he took a few steps to the artillery position. Without saying a word, he directly pulled out his saber, and with one sword, he slashed at a puppet gunner who refused to fire. Full of anger, Kamishiro Rakawa went down with this knife, and the head of the puppet gunner was cut off.

After slashing off the head of the puppet gunner, Kanshiro Rawai, who splattered his face with blood, splattered his face. looked at the other gunners with a hideous face, as well as Wang Tieshi beside him, and said in extremely stiff Chinese: "If you don't fire the cannon again, including you Wang Sang, all the garrison will be dead, dead." ”

Luo Hekanshiro went down with this knife, and the puppet army around him was terrified. Under Wang Tieshi's strict order, the puppet artillery did not dare to hesitate any longer, and immediately opened fire on the broken temple on the mountain. After the entire ruined temple was completely blown up by the Japanese artillery and turned into a ruin, Luo Hekanshiro held his saber and gave the order to charge immediately to Wang Tieshi, who was beside him.

It's just that what makes Luo Hekanshiro angry is that although Wang Tieshi still has the Japanese army under him, he turned over the surroundings of the ruined temple. But nothing was found except for the bits and pieces of the corpses of the Japanese puppet soldiers that had been bombed, and the garbage that proved that people had once lived here.

Although after making a swoop, Kamishiro Rakuai immediately organized his troops and conducted a large-scale search in all directions. Even the Japanese puppet army, which controlled the commanding heights of Xishan, came down from the flank of Li Ziyuan's hidden location and searched the entire Xishan. However, for Li Ziyuan's hidden location, this Japanese puppet army did not search.

Perhaps thinking that this location was right under their noses, this Japanese puppet army only searched the other directions of Xishan, but ignored this dark place under the lights. In the process of searching the mountains by the Japanese puppet army, Li Ziyuan's hands carrying the large-open nose barge gun were soaked.

Especially in the Japanese puppet army in Soushan, right under his nose, and even when he was walking back and forth around him, Li Ziyuan's heart was raised to his throat. He was not only worried that he would be discovered by the Japanese puppet army, but also worried about the rookies of his subordinates who basically had no combat experience. In case that guy can't hold his breath, a single bullet will reveal all his whereabouts.

Just such a little Japanese puppet army, Li Ziyuan is not worried. At such a close distance, his own Jinzao submachine guns were enough to deal with the Japanese squad, and the remaining puppet army was nothing. But with a large number of Japanese puppet troops under the mountain and in other directions, Li Ziyuan knew that at least until the troops were trained to the level in his heart, they were far from being opponents.

Therefore, in the entire process of the Japanese army's search for the mountains, Li Ziyuan was quite nervous. I was afraid that the soldier would not be able to control it, and a rash shot would reveal his whereabouts. Fortunately, the training at this stage has also played a role to some extent. The backbone of the old superiors were also effective and controlled the emotions of the troops. Everyone was in the hiding place, quietly hidden, without making a sound.

At this time, under the mountain, there was still nothing to be found with the search of the mountain. Kamishiro, who was already a little unable to control his emotions, jumped like thunder after not even grabbing a single hair. Several Japanese puppet army captains who searched the mountains were slapped by him. But no matter how much you slap you, it won't solve anything. Luo Hekanshiro's mood is obviously a little excessively gaffe.

Looking at the old classmate in front of him who had lost his former calm, he was ordered by the head of the division to cooperate with him to clean up Tsuruta Numan on the Eighth Road in Hubei, but he smiled and said: "Luo Hejun, the battle has just begun now, and you don't have to be so out of control." These dirt roads are very cunning, and they are indeed difficult to grasp. ”

"I've told you before that this Dirt Eight Roads aren't terrible, but that commander of theirs is a very cunning fellow. The battle of Pingchuan Town has proved that this person is not only changeable in tactics, but also very bold. Actually dared to be cleared by the joint efforts of the Imperial Army and the garrison, and then returned to the vicinity of Pingchuan Town to lurk. ”

And use the garrison of Pingchuan Town to take a gap in clearing and dispatching all of them. Boldly and openly swaggering, pretending to be my plainclothes team, he went directly into Pingchuan Town. After swaggering and feasting in the garrison headquarters, they attacked the munitions warehouse set up by our army in Pingchuan Town. ”

"Old classmate, although you and I are graduates of the Imperial Army Non-commissioned Officer School, and have received a formal military education. But I have something unpleasant to say, if you look at it from another angle, you and I can't do this kind of thing. The courage and tactical cunning of this man cannot but be admired even by you. As I said a long time ago, this is a tough opponent. ”

"Against such an opponent, who is hiding in such a large mountainous area, it is not easy for us to catch them. You can surround the perimeter of this ruined temple, but your current forces can't encircle the main mountainous area. These dirt roads are not the regular army of the national government, and they will stick to a certain place for you to fight. ”

"However, I feel that these dirt roads have not gone far. But no matter whether they have gone far or not, it is still not easy to find their traces in the current situation that the sky is about to get dark. I have a way to force them to come forward. ”

Hearing that this old classmate in front of him, who is always mysterious and secretive, actually has a way to force those dirt eight roads out. Luo Hekanshiro, who was at a loss, his face changed slightly, and he said in a very dissatisfied tone: "Tsuruda-kun, you don't want to be so Shinto." Didn't you see that I was forced to commit suicide by the division commander? ”

Seeing Luo Hekanshiro's angry face, Tsuruta Numan smiled indifferently and said, "Luo Hejun, do you remember Wangjiagou's punishment?" The people of China there didn't know where they were hiding, but now they're back. Wangjiagou is not far from here, you said that we went to Wangjiagou to punish the people there, will they not die and not be saved? ”

"Help, we can just lure the snake out of the hole. If they don't save them, I don't think the people here will ever support them again. This is called attacking it and saving it, luring it to appear. When the time comes, whether you can solve this dirt cleanly depends on how big your brother's mesh is. ”

"At that time, it will not only allow you to give an account to the division commander, but also deter the people of China in the mountainous areas in the eastern part of Hubei County, and not support those who dare to fight against the empire. The only choice for them is to be a submissive citizen in front of the Imperial Army and to build a Greater East Asia Common Circle with the Japanese Empire. ”
