In the previous ambush battle, Li Ziyuan captured a batch of weapons from the Japanese army. On the more than 10 carts full of supplies, 20,000 rounds of 65 rifle bullets, 10,000 rounds of 79 bullets and 10,000 rounds of 77 bullets, 3,000 rounds of barge gun bullets, and a large number of Tohoku-made* and Japanese-style* were also found.

There are also 200 79 rifles, 100 30 rifles, five Czech-style machine guns imitated in the Northeast, 15 Northeastern* and 15 shell guns, and a large number of winter military uniforms of the Japanese puppet army. According to the confessions of the interrogators of the pseudo-plainclothes soldiers, these weapons, ammunition and supplies were replenished by the Japanese army to the Japanese puppet troops in various strongholds in the Taiyue Mountains.

The more than 100 recruits were all prepared by the Japanese army to change their guards. As for the 79 rifle and the Czech machine gun, the Japanese army had already ordered the puppet army of several strongholds in the Taiyue Mountains to expand the establishment of 400 people. So that the puppet garrison in the Taiyue Mountains can assume the responsibility of independently guarding several strongholds.

At present, the Japanese army is constantly shrinking its forces, constantly trying to replace the Japanese army with a puppet army, and acting as their vanguard to support the war with war. Especially in the various base areas of the Eighth Route Army, in order to replace the Japanese army, which was under-armed. In the face of the two major base areas of Taiyue and Taihang in southern Jinnan, the Japanese army could only find a way to expand the puppet army.

It's just that due to the Japanese army's own production capacity, it can only meet the needs of the Japanese army's own expansion at the moment. For the weapons and ammunition needed for the expansion of the puppet army, in addition to being transferred from the spoils of war. The rest can only dig up the old stocks of the Northeast Army that were captured that year, as well as the stocks of old weapons in the homeland.

As a result, almost all of the weapons and ammunition allocated by the expansion of the puppet army were intercepted by Li Ziyuan. Even the garrisons of the Japanese troops in the various strongholds were all captured.

At present, the Japanese army will either redeploy ammunition and weapons, or find a way to recapture these weapons and ammunition. There are also winter clothes that have entered October, and are more needed for the Japanese puppet army. Winter comes early in the mountains, and it will be time to change into winter clothes in half a month. But the problem is that the winter clothes of the Japanese army, along with the puppet army, have disappeared.

The winter clothes of the puppet army are basically made locally. But the problem is that the winter clothes of the Japanese army are either transferred back from China or from big cities. If this batch of winter clothes could not be recaptured, it is estimated that the Japanese troops in the eastern foothills of Taiyue Mountain would either freeze or wear the old cotton jackets worn by the Chinese.

Such a situation made it strange that the Japanese army behind him did not go crazy to pursue Li Ziyuan. What's more, there are still more than a hundred recruits' deep-sea blood revenge to be avenged. Li Ziyuan was full of fat stomachs, but the Japanese army behind him did not take these things back. Not only will the whole plan be completely messed up, but even he will be frozen.

Of course, Li Ziyuan doesn't care about these weapons and equipment, what the Japanese army is used for. For him, this batch of weapons came just in time, so he naturally smiled unceremoniously. Some of the ammunition was distributed first, and the rest was transported back by the reconnaissance platoon first. At the moment, he had quite an abundance of ammunition on hand, so he decided to make persistent efforts and try again in style.

The mad dog behind him, it's a pity for him not to beat it. At least he can't be allowed to bite around him, so as to ensure that the reconnaissance platoon will safely transport the spoils back to the Ludong base area. So Li Ziyuan has been moving back and forth in the past two days, leading the mad dog behind him to swim around, just to find a suitable location for ambush.

Of course, in the battle before him, the Japanese puppet army in the entire Taiyue Mountain area was already alarmed. Although I don't know what the Eighth Route is, and I think that Li Ziyuan's department is the troops of the Taiyue Military Region, the surrounding Japanese puppet army has already moved out and surrounded Li Ziyuan.

So in this battle, Li Ziyuan still has to fight quickly. Otherwise, it will be difficult to fight the snake and not die, but suffer from it. It is precisely with this kind of mental preparation that Li Ziyuan searched for the terrain very carefully. I didn't be hasty because there was a mad dog biting behind me, and more mad dogs around me were coming towards me.

Li Ziyuan's final choice was at the location of the Taiyue Pass. After this mountain pass, after turning over a mountain, there is already the Shangdang Basin. To the southeast, it connects the Taihang and Taiyue Mountains, as well as the Danzhu Ridge, which serves as the southern barrier of the Shangdang Basin.

It is located at the intersection of the Taiyue Mountains and the Danzhu Mountains, and is a passage out of the Taiyue Mountains. and close to the Shangdang Basin Plain, which is tightly controlled by the Japanese puppet, the devils who are chasing will definitely be on guard, and they will not be as strict as in the mountains, which is an opportunity for themselves.

In terms of tactics, except for the different locations chosen for ambushes, the rest of the tactical use is exactly the same, except that this time there are five more crooked machine guns. As for the 92 heavy machine gun, Li Ziyuan was a little bulky. So let the reconnaissance platoon send it back in advance along with the captured 92 infantry gun.

After the ambush was completed, Li Ziyuan looked at the time on the watch on his wrist. He raised his binoculars again and looked down the mountain. This col has water, and the terrain below is relatively open. A dirt road winding out of the Taiyue Mountains is passing through the middle of the mountain pass.

The mountains on both wings can be said to be quite gentle. Apart from some bushes, there is little vegetation. To be honest, it's not a good terrain for ambushes. But here, there is an advantage, that is, it will become a good place for the Japanese puppet army to rest and sharpen.

Li Ziyuan has been observing the direction of the Japanese puppet army, and he has never put down the telescope in his hand. As for whether the Japanese army can rest and fight here, Li Ziyuan still has a number in his heart. In the past two days, the Japanese puppet army behind him has been chasing him sleeplessly, and even the iron man will feel tired.

When I transferred by myself, I was indeed quite exhausted. The little devils are also people, and they can't bear such a white, black-black pursuit. There is water here, and the terrain is quite gentle. Even if the Japanese puppet army doesn't rest for the night, they will eat something here to replenish their strength.

You must know that when the transfer was in the past two days, Li Ziyuan sent a reconnaissance platoon to toss these Japanese puppet troops. Every now and then two grenadiers come in, or take out their spearheads. When the Japanese puppet army was eating, a light machine gun and * added vegetables made these Japanese puppet soldiers choke one by one, and they didn't eat anything seriously for almost two days.

The terrain here is not conducive to a sneak attack, but to the rest of the troops. Li Ziyuan doesn't believe it, these devils don't rest here? As for those puppet soldiers, Li Ziyuan directly filtered them. These people also acted as dogs for the Japanese army, and as for whether they could have the final say in the battle, it could almost be said that they could be ignored directly.

Putting down the binoculars in his hand, Li Ziyuan turned his head to look at the ambush location of his troops, and looked at the soldiers who were covered in camouflage. With a sigh of relief, he aimed his telescope at the entrance and exit of the col again. Sure enough, when Li Ziyuan raised the telescope for the second time, the vanguard of the Japanese puppet army had already appeared at the mountain pass.

It's just that after all the Japanese puppet troops drove into the mountain pass, Li Ziyuan found that the situation was a little bad this time. I don't know if the Japanese army arrived, and now the Japanese army under the mountain now has more than 200 people, plus the strength of the puppet army has exceeded that of Li Ziyuan's department.

Moreover, the Japanese troops also carried a 92 heavy machine gun and a mortar. This at least doubled the heavy firepower of the Japanese puppet army under the mountain. It turned out that this Japanese puppet army carried a Type 92 on the Japanese army, and the puppet army was not equipped with heavy machine guns. At present, the Japanese troops who are coming in for reinforcements actually carry a 92-type army, which is somewhat unexpected by Li Ziyuan.

The most important thing is when this Japanese army arrived, but Li Ziyuan felt that he was being put together. Unexpectedly, under his nose, the two Japanese troops converged, and he didn't even notice it. This point undoubtedly sounded a big alarm bell for Li Ziyuan.

He was now sure that there would be a large number of Japanese puppet troops waiting for him in front of him. When I came, I definitely can't go back, this is what Li Ziyuan can be sure of. At present, it is estimated that the Japanese puppet army has basically completed the encirclement of this area. Now I estimate that I am already in the encirclement of the Japanese puppet army.

The current situation is no longer as simple as whether to fight or not. If you don't fight, unless you throw away all your supplies and look for a gap to break through, it will be difficult for you to stand out. In fact, giving up the few materials left is not a difficult problem for Li Ziyuan to solve.

But now he is faced with the fact that the headquarters and division commanders who have just been escorted to the Taiyue Military Region are now in the territory of the Taiyue Military Region. Once the Japanese army is eager to retaliate and carry out a sweep of the Taiyue base area when it cannot find itself, then the leaders who are currently in the territory of the Taiyue Military Region will be in danger.

There is now the entire North China, except for Jinchaji and Jinsui, the essence of almost all the troops of the Eighth Route Army, as well as the brain of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army. The deputy commander-in-chief, the deputy chief of staff, the division commander, and the cadres from the two major base areas of the Northern Bureau, Taihang, and Taiyue, as well as the base areas behind enemy lines in North China, such as Hebei, Shandong, Henan, and southern Hebei, returned to Yan'an in large numbers.

Once encountering any danger, even the loss of even one cadre is a major loss. No one in his own unit was captured, and it is estimated that the Japanese puppet army does not know for the time being, but his true identity is which unit. They should also think that they are a certain part of the Taiyue Military Region, and if they want to retaliate, they will most likely still go to the Taiyue base area.

The Japanese army's means of retaliation, Li Ziyuan is naturally also clear. I patted my ass and walked away with the booty, and I was indeed safe. Before the Japanese army reacted, he brought the troops back to Taihang Mountain, and Li Ziyuan still had this confidence. But what about the Taiyue Military Region? What about the safety of so many chiefs?

Li Ziyuan, who did not put down the telescope in his hand, pondered for a while, but still made up his mind to fight this battle. Although the Japanese army increased its troops, the outcome of Li Ziyuan's battle became somewhat uncertain. But the Japanese puppet army has already reached the bottom of their noses, and it is too late to transfer themselves. Once discovered, then their own troops will not be able to get rid of the Japanese fire coverage at all.

And if you want to break the situation that the Japanese puppet army has formed at the moment, then you must break the Japanese army all the way at all costs. and took away the attention of the Japanese puppet army from the jurisdiction of the Taiyue Military Region. In other words, this battle, whether Li Ziyuan is willing or unwilling, must be fought.

If there were not so many high-ranking cadres and returned to northern Shaanxi through the Taiyue Military Region, this heart Li Ziyuan would naturally not it. With the ability of the leader of the Taiyue Military Region, even if all the Japanese puppet troops in the southeast of Jin were dispatched, they would not be able to take any advantage of him. But at the moment, Li Ziyuan can only make up his mind to fight a battle and divert the attention of the Japanese puppet army from Taiyue.
