Chapter 32: The Devil Is Coming

However, when he mentioned Qiaokou Town, Li Ziyuan remembered that he had been busy training troops these days, and he had completely lost the original plan of "returning" the truck he drove to the Japanese puppet army in Qiaokou Town. That big guy can easily expose his target, and it's dangerous not to send his secret camp away in time.

The Japanese puppet army not only has spies on the ground, they also have planes in the air. These days, I have forgotten all about that truck, such an important goal. Now I don't know if I've been discovered by the devils, but if I am discovered by the devils, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay here.

It's just that often a lot of times I'm afraid of something, but I just come to something. The more you worry about something, the more likely you are to come to your door. Just when Li Ziyuan was discussing the plan with several cadres, Shi Jin told him a piece of news that made him quite angry and uneasy. This morning, when Shi Jin went out on a reconnaissance mission, he heard a sheep herder at the mountain pass tell him that a truck had driven from the mountain to Qiaokou the day before yesterday.

The sheep herder said that he had been herding sheep in that area for so long, and he dared to enter Dongshan District for the first time when he saw a car. However, he had been herding sheep there, and he had never seen when the car had entered. But the person driving the car is a very ordinary person wearing a very ordinary body.

After receiving this news, Shi Jin, who immediately felt that something was wrong, immediately gave up the original task. But when he arrived at the place where the truck was placed, he found that the truck was indeed gone. The branches and weeds that were used for camouflage were also left in a messy way.

Hearing Shi Jin say that the truck was gone, Li Ziyuan, who was shocked, immediately stood up and said to several cadres: "Old Shi, why didn't you say it earlier?" This will be the end of this meeting, you will immediately gather your troops and prepare for the transfer, take away everything you can bring here, and bury everything you can't take away. If I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid the Japanese puppet army has already outflanked us. ”

Li Ziyuan's words fell, and Chang Juan said with some suspicion: "Captain Li, are you overreacting?" Even if that car was driven away by the Japanese puppet spies, it doesn't mean that the devils will find us here. We have high mountains and dense forests here, and little devils will not easily find here. ”

"Besides, even if it's gone, I'm not sure that the Japanese puppet army took it away. The unit has been training so heavily in the past few days, and today is a rare rest. And now immediately transfer to where to go? There is no village in the surrounding area for more than ten miles, which can accommodate so many of us. It's hard to find such a place. ”

Looking at this young instructor and secretary of the district party committee, under Guan Li's hard communication and coordination these days, Li Ziyuan, who has somewhat eased the relationship with her, said a little bigly: "My aunt, you really don't know anything, I really don't know how you became the secretary of the district party committee, and how you survived in Hubei, where the enemy situation is so serious." ”

"Let me ask you, how many people in the entire Hubei County can drive? Especially around the place where we are now, who can drive? Even if there were, how many people dared to drive this Japanese army-standard truck around in the Japanese-occupied area in the southeast of Shanxi, wouldn't he die? ”

"At the moment, not to mention the entire Hubei, it is a few counties to which the entire military sub-division belongs, and it is impossible for anyone else to drive this Japanese military standard truck away except for the Japanese puppet spies. Don't forget, there's not much to populate within a few miles of here. The truck, I did before I left, I did a careful job of concealing it. ”

"As long as you don't get close, ordinary people can't easily find it, even if you find ordinary hunters or farmers, how many can drive? Except for being discovered and driven away by the Japanese puppet spies who went into the mountains to look for us, I can't think of anyone else who dares to drive this Japanese military truck around. ”

"I blew up the devil's arsenal a few days ago, and destroyed the Japanese army's Baijin Railway, it's strange that the little devil is not crazy these days. Are you really an idiot and give up if you can't find us for a while? The goal of the large army is obvious, and the little devil will definitely send a large number of spies into the mountain. ”

"Aunt Chang, have you forgotten Wangjiagou some time ago, how did we expose it? Up to now, you, the secretary of the district party committee, have not found out who has touched us to the bottom. Now who can guarantee that this Japanese puppet spy will not wander around in this mountainous area? ”

"We're less than five miles away from where the trucks are located. In addition, when we make a fire to cook every day, fireworks will be generated to expose our position. Grandma's, I was also a little careless, and I didn't send away such a big target in time. ”

After finishing speaking, Li Ziyuan didn't care whether Chang Juan agreed or not, and directly told Guan Li, who had been officially appointed as the deputy captain of the military division, and the two squadron leaders that they must complete the preparations for the transfer within 20 minutes and set off on time in 20 minutes. The truck disappeared the day before yesterday, and two days was enough time for the Japanese puppet spies to find here.

As for transferring there, Li Ziyuan really hasn't thought about it for the time being. But there is one thing, this place cannot be waited, and it must be transferred immediately. Although it is a little more secluded, the terrain is quite unfavorable. Temples, regardless of the place of repair in the middle of nowhere, but will not choose the highest peaks.

Although the temple where he was located had been destroyed, it was still at the lowest point in the surrounding mountains. Once the Japanese take control of the surrounding commanding heights, the troops will be suppressed here and unable to move. Even if it is prominent, the casualties will be much greater.

Li Ziyuan's attitude was very tough and demanded an immediate retreat. Although Chang Juan did not agree, she thought that there was no need for such a fuss. But after several cadres glanced at each other, they immediately went down to carry out the execution. On the issue of fighting, everyone is still convinced of Li Ziyuan. As for Chang Juan, the female instructor, everyone agreed that it was better to do her political work well.

Although the troops engaged in these days of hard training are extremely tired, at least some of the results have also been shown. Fifteen minutes after Li Ziyuan ordered an emergency assembly, the troops had already completed preparations for departure. Looking at the heavily armed warrior standing straight in front of him, Li Ziyuan nodded with satisfaction.

Pointing to a mountain on the right side of this camp that is steeper but connected to other directions, Li Ziyuan said to Chang Juan and Guan Li: "The two of you immediately take the troops up that mountain, don't go up to the top of the mountain and hide on the mountainside." Remember not to choose bushes for concealment, but to choose grass as much as possible. I'm here with a small team to clean up the mess and get some decoration. ”

Regarding Li Ziyuan's request, although Chang Juan was very dissatisfied, she didn't say anything. Although he was a little dissatisfied with the words of this guy left alone, under the signal of Guan Li beside him, he still left the camp with all but a small team and quickly went up the West Mountain.

Li Ziyuan led a small team, and at each doorway, a thin rope was used to connect the fuse. At the same time, in several positions where the Japanese puppet army might deploy machine guns, two Type 97 grenades were planted as mines. Regarding what the troops could not deal with for a while, Li Ziyuan did not move.

Just when Li Ziyuan was cautiously cleaning up the last traces of the place where the mines were laid, a soldier who stayed at the foot of the mountain to sentry ran back panting and said: "Captain, a large number of Japanese puppet troops have been found at the foot of the mountain, and the vanguard should have arrived at the foot of the mountain by now." ”

Seeing the soldier's somewhat flustered expression, Li Ziyuan unhurriedly finished the work in his hand and said, "What are you panicking about?" It's not like you've never seen these little devils. Grandma's, when you first led you to eat roast chicken in Pingchuan, why didn't you know that you were afraid? What's so scary now? How many little devils and puppet armies came? ”

The soldier heard Li Ziyuan's ridicule, but said, "Captain, it's not that I'm afraid, it's these little devils who have brought big guys." It's the infantry gun they used in Pingchuan Town. There seems to be a big guy behind him, a cannon bigger than that. There are also two squadrons of the puppet army coming down the mountain, but the Japanese seem to have at least one squadron. ”

Hearing that the Japanese puppet army actually carried infantry artillery, and this sortie was mainly based on the Japanese army, I knew that this time it was a big game for Li Ziyuan. quickly completed the work in hand, and immediately went to the West Mountain with a small team. As soon as he joined the main force led by Chang Juan, a team leader who was in charge of the guard behind the West Mountain ran over and pointed to the back of the mountain and said, "Captain, instructor, the Japanese puppet army has been found behind the mountain." ”

"The puppet army is about a squadron, and the Japanese should be two squads, but with two heavy machine guns. Now this group of Japanese puppet troops is climbing the west mountain on the eastern side of the mountain. At most, when there was a bag of cigarettes, they would be able to climb to the top of the West Mountain. Captain, shall we fight or not? ”

The report of this squad leader made Li Ziyuan clearly realize that he was surrounded. Now that he is in the West Mountain, the Japanese puppet army has been discovered, plus the Japanese puppet army that has arrived at the bottom of the mountain, the devil is going to serve himself in a pot. Although several other directions are not clear for the time being, Li Ziyuan can be sure that the Japanese puppet army will definitely not come from these two ways alone.

Thinking of this, Li Ziyuan said to the squad leader: "What are you panicking about? Don't forget, you are their captain, you can't hold your breath, how can your warriors still hold their breath. You immediately retreat thirty meters with your squad to the flank where we are now, and as long as the Japanese puppet army does not find you, you are absolutely not allowed to shoot. ”

After the squad leader turned around and left, Li Ziyuan said to Chang Juan and Guan Li: "You two inform the troops that you must do a good job of concealment." No one is allowed to smoke, move, talk, or take out any grenades. No shots are to be fired without my orders. ”

After saying this, Li Ziyuan didn't care that the two of them had slightly changed their faces after hearing the team leader's report. Instead, he raised his binoculars and carefully observed the bottom of the mountain. At this moment, the Japanese puppet army under the mountain has rushed to the ruined temple that they used as a temporary camp.

And just at the foot of the temple mountain, two infantry guns and one mountain gun of the Japanese army, plus two mortars of the puppet army, are also ready for battle. As for the puppet army squad as the vanguard, they are cautiously searching the temple. Behind this puppet army squad, the strength of the Japanese squad was ready for battle.

Just behind these Japanese puppet troops, the main force of the Japanese puppet army, which had been rapidly spreading along the two wings, had already set up heavy machine guns. The two Type 92 heavy machine guns of the Japanese army, plus the two Russian-style two-wheeled Makqin guns of the puppet army, pointed directly at the temple. The grenadiers were also ready to suppress the counter-fire in the temple at any time.
