In the early summer night, there is no spring cold, and the heat will pass for a few days.

The cool breeze blew over the leaves overhead, making a rattling sound. The dappled light and shadow move slowly on the ground, and gazing at it for a long time will give people a strange illusion.

Time flies so fast, or should I say idle days go in so fast. Tomorrow Shen Chen will leave home and return to the team, and in this night's chat, he will reveal the reluctance and sorrow before parting.

"Da Mei's reputation-" Uncle Wang shook his head slightly, took a sip of his home-brewed sweet potato wine, and said slowly: "The tree is a big move, she went to join the army, and with the army, there is a lot less danger." ”

Sun Hongshan smiled bitterly and said, "This girl has the right idea, and I can't control the things she decides, so I have to go with her." I hope she is tired of being outside, can retract her heart, and come home to live in peace. ”

"The girl is a capable person, and she will definitely be able to kick and make a appearance. You're the one who keeps her, and you can tie her heart? Uncle Wang said: "Besides, it is also forced by this world." You, just let her go and let her do it. ”

Sun Hongshan was silent, he couldn't do anything, but he was always a little unwilling. Why can't you take care of your niece?

But think about it the other way, isn't your life changed because of the change of your niece?

If it weren't for her niece, Xiaohua would have been taken to an unknown place by traffickers; His own injuries will not be healed, and he may be dead; Now I can't go to this place of peace and live a life of peace......

The niece is fighting for her life, for this family, for her relatives, Sun Hongshan knows very well in his heart, and he is very grateful, and he has no confidence to speak hard words and be strong.

There was a burst of laughter, and Sun Hongshan and Uncle Wang both turned their heads to look. Shen Chen and Ju Zi were laughing not far away, as well as Xiaohua who was teased.

Sun Hongshan and Uncle Wang couldn't help but look at each other and smile. Although Sun Hongshan's smile was a little bitter and melancholy, the facts were irreversible, so why did he need to add to Shen Chen's blockage before he left home?

"Actually, I'm still most worried about my family." Shen Chenzheng explained the matter to Juzi, "Although I may set off with the army and leave the base area temporarily or for a long time. But as long as the devil's sweep can break into the base area, it may implicate my family. ”

Juzi nodded and said, "Don't worry, our Wangjiawa is relatively remote, and devils generally can't hit here." Even if they really came, they couldn't help it. ”

Shen Chen pondered for a moment and said, "In addition to such a big operation as a sweep, you and the militia in the village should also pay attention to some living people who usually come, like the spy in the bazaar. The enemy may threaten me by taking my family by tricks. ”

Juzi blinked, understanding Shen Chen's worries, and assured him, "Okay, I understand." Later, he took the militia of the village to strengthen the vigilance, paying special attention to the fresh face. ”

After a pause, she added, "It's not so easy to capture people from the base and take them away. In so many villages along the way, there are militia guards guarding ......"

"You mean to count on others, not on you?" Shen Chen was a little displeased and lowered his eyelids.

Kikuko immediately realized the ambiguity of these words, and hurriedly said, "I didn't mean that. In terms of estrangement and proximity, I will also do my best to protect Uncle Sun's family, and protect your relatives. ”

Shen Chen was silent for a long time before he said slowly, "Just do your best." I have told my family to tell them to talk less about their relationship with me and pay more attention to their safety in the future. ”

Juzi knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she didn't dare to pick up the stubble again, for fear of upsetting Shen Chen, so she just nodded again and again.

To be honest, Shen Chen didn't trust Juzi very much because she was too careless and not smart. Therefore, in addition to instructing her, he also thought about entrusting Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou to let the district take care of his family.

Although for Shen Chen, there is no psychological relationship with Sun Hongshan's family, or even with Erdan. But like Shen Chen who was in Shanghai before, he should also take care of the relatives of that body.

It was late at night, and Uncle Wang and Ju Zi said goodbye and went home, leaving a lot of dried meat for Shen Chen to take tomorrow.

After saying hello to his uncle and aunt, Shen Chen returned to his hut and lay down on the kang to rest early.

In addition to wanting to nourish his spirit, Shen Chen was also afraid that his uncle and aunt would nagging endlessly, and the more he talked, the more sad he became, and the more he talked, the more worried he became.

In the darkness of the room, Shen Chen's eyes were wide open, and it took a long time to fall asleep. Thinking wildly, he doesn't know what to plan, he is walking completely on instinct, who knows the outcome in the future?

……………

Although catching a traitor spy is not a particularly big deal, it reveals a dangerous signal, indicating that the devil is very likely to be staring here, and the possibility of sweeping has become greater.

Moreover, it is certain that there are traitors in the base areas, and the sweep may be imminent, but the hidden dangers inside have not yet been cleared.

Moreover, the work of hoeing and defending the traitors in the base areas has been exposed, and the vigilance of the people has to be raised. All of these need to be improved and strengthened.

Investigations, visits, investigations, issuing anti-rape notices, and formulating measures to identify and prevent rape...... The cadres in the base area had a lot of work to do, and they were busy in the tense atmosphere before the sweep.

And Shen Chen also spent a long vacation, said goodbye to his relatives, and rushed to the regiment headquarters to report.

The battle was coming soon, and Shen Chen cleaned up the reluctance to part, and devoted all his mind and energy to preparing to face the devil.

Chinese often say "providence", just as foreigners often say "God", when coincidences cannot be explained, they will be called "providence" to deal with.

Even poverty, wealth, wind, rain, etc., will be called providence by the common people. Providence cannot be disobeyed, just like God rolls the dice, you can't know what time it is.

But there is always a mysterious hand in the dark that is pulling out everything in the world, is it possible to say that everything is in God's control, and none of it is accidental?

Three days of continuous summer rain have made the roads muddy, and the devil's movements will inevitably be affected.

At this moment, good news came from the coastal area.

In the "Public Security Strengthening Campaign" carried out by the devils, the Eighth Route Army taught the Second Brigade to skillfully use the "flanging tactics" to attack Tancheng from a long distance.

After a fierce battle, the Second Brigade was taught to conquer Tancheng, creating the first victory of the Eighth Route Army after entering Lu.

Coupled with the victory in the previous Battle of Hailing, the "flanging tactic" became an effective means to break the enemy's sweeping offensive, and was successively promoted to various anti-Japanese base areas in Shandong.

As a result, the main regiment had a plan to use new tactics to crush the enemy's sweep. The target of the attack was initially set at the county seat.

Generally speaking, the enemy's sweeping force is a large brigade, and if there is no need to transfer troops from other places, it can only reduce the defenders of the local strongholds and scrape together the men and horses of the sweep.

The consequence of this is that the hinterland of the occupied zone is empty, and the "flanging tactic" is precisely that the enemy advances into us, avoiding the enemy's sweeping brigades, and penetrates directly into the empty heart.

The principle of guerrilla warfare is that the enemy advances and retreats, luring the enemy into depth. But the mastery of the art of conducting is flexibility, which is to change according to the actual situation.

This is the case with the "flanging tactics", which were in line with the situation of the anti-Japanese war behind enemy lines in Shandong at that time by taking advantage of the fact that the enemy's encirclement had not yet been formed, or by drilling through the gaps of the enemy attacking from multiple routes, jumping to the enemy's rear to strike at the enemy, and smashing the enemy's sweep.

"Running for more than 20 kilometers—" Regiment Leader Zheng measured the distance on the map, his fingers swiped on the villages, towns and roads along the way, and said thoughtfully: "It should be feasible." ”

Political Commissar Shen was also thinking about it, and it took a long time before he said: "If you can drag down the sweeping enemy, or delay their actions, it will be more beneficial to rush to the county seat." ”

Regiment Commander Zheng nodded, and said uncertainly: "With the guerrillas, as well as the district squadron, I'm afraid there will be difficulties, right?" ”

Political Commissar Shen smiled and said, "If the enemy wants to make a big move, the county town will be empty, and we won't need the strength of a regiment." Leaving a company, with the cooperation of the guerrillas and the district squadron, will almost achieve the goal. ”

After thinking about it, Regiment Commander Zheng decided to prepare according to this plan first, and then make further improvements and arrangements when the specific information of the enemy's dispatch was detected.

Since this plan is in place, it is necessary to inform the guerrillas and district squadrons in advance so that they can also be prepared in all aspects.

And from the analysis of the current intelligence in all aspects, the enemy in the county is only five or six hundred devils, and the imperial alliance army of 13 or 400. According to the calculation of at least half of the troops, the remaining troops in the enemy-occupied areas are scattered and not too many.

Judging from the details, there will be at least one team of devils in the county, plus a small number of garrisons in other important strongholds, and the enemy will sweep less than 500 devils at most.

As for the Imperial Army, there are more people, but their combat effectiveness is low, and they are not even as powerful as the guerrillas.

Although they wanted to leave a company of regular troops to participate in the counter-sweep, Regiment Commander Zheng and Political Commissar Shen were still worried that the guerrillas would suffer heavy losses, so they simply left Shen Chen behind.

Not alone, but leaving Shen Chen's company, Jiang Lian, behind. First, Jiang Lian and the guerrillas had cooperated many times, and they were more familiar with each other; Second, Shen Chen's style of play, the guerrillas do not have to adapt again.

On the other hand, it was a compensation for the guerrillas. Dig up the pillars of others, and make more efforts to counter-sweep!

As for Shen Chen, he was already a soldier of the main force anyway, of course he obeyed orders. It was also a gratifying thing for him and the guerrillas to be able to fight side by side with the guerrillas again.

Only Yu Baogen, Shen Chen's former follower, is not very happy these days. was dumped by Shen Chen, this sounds ambiguous, but this guy is really used to it, so he wants to fight with Shen Chen.

Because Shen Chen's joining the army was not publicized at the beginning, Yu Baogen didn't know it. When Shen Chen came back from his absence, he went directly to the main force to report for duty, and he knew the news.

After being depressed for a day or two, Yu Baogen thought of an idea. He applied to Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou and also wanted to join the army.

Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou didn't know his mind yet, and they also felt that if Shen Chen had an acquaintance by his side, he would take better care of him.

Anyway, Regiment Commander Zheng also agreed, not only matching Shen Chen with a mount, but also sending him a guard with a gun on his back. Yu Baogen is also a very experienced veteran, and the main force may agree to his request.

But Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou were more sophisticated, so they didn't go directly to Xiang, but through Shen Chen, the troops agreed to receive Yu Baogen and sent him to Shen Chen as a guard with a gun on his back.

Putting on the yellow military uniform, carrying Shen Chen's spear, and leading the mule rationed to Shen Chen, Yu Baogen's wish was fulfilled, and he held his head high and became angry.

Shen Chen felt that this was very good, there was no need to run in, the cooperation between the two had a tacit understanding, and he was more sure of the battle that was coming soon.

Despite the fact that the rain delayed the sweep of the enemy for a few days, the time to come will come. It's just that I have plenty of time to get information and meet the battle.

The sweeping enemy made a big move, and the troops were divided into two routes, attacking from the north and east of the base area, in order to form a flanking attack.

After further information was confirmed, according to the established plan, the guerrillas were divided into two routes, one of which was responsible for raiding and harassing and pinning down, and leading the sweeping enemy to the heart of the base area; Along the way, the camera circled behind the enemy's back, planted mines, and delayed his retreat.

Jiang Lian did not show up for the time being, creating an illusion for the devil and breeding his arrogance of contempt for the enemy.

The widespread use of landmines, as well as the results achieved and the role they played, naturally became the main weapon of the guerrillas and the best choice for killing the enemy and defending their homeland.

Coupled with the topography of the local mountainous and semi-mountainous areas, the large use of ditches and walls makes it much easier to deal with enemy sweeps than in plain areas.

In view of this, Shen Chen took the initiative to cooperate with the guerrillas, give the enemy constant blows, and gradually introduce the enemy into the hinterland.

As for the PK facing the devil, Shen Chen didn't even think about it.

Outwitting the enemy and subduing the enemy with ingenuity is where the guerrillas' advantage lies.

And for the devils, falling under the vicious trap of yin and poison, dying at the hands of an invisible enemy, will hit their morale and increase their fear, right?

A pillar of smoke rose from afar, and the wolf smoke alarmed that the devil was coming.

Shen Chen smiled coldly and raised his binoculars to look.

The road was empty, and people, vehicles, mules and horses were gone, and only the trees on the side of the road and the crops in the fields were helpless to welcome the arrival of the invaders.

If you look at it from above, you can see the yellow marching procession like two ugly poisonous snakes, winding its way forward.

The Japanese devils wore yellow military uniforms, disgusting yellow military hats that were slightly raised, carried crimson cowhide backpacks, carried 38 large covers and crooked machine guns, and walked with a click.

In front of the marching army, the devil's scouts reconnoitred and patrolled back and forth, and the devil's brigade was more than 500 meters away, serving as the task of the top soldiers.

"Smack!" A sudden gunshot broke the silence, and a ghost scout stepped off his horse.

"Enemy attack!" With the warning, several ghost scouts lowered their bodies and searched for the attacker while maneuvering their horses.

"Smack!" There was another crisp gunshot, and a horse neighed and fell to the ground.
