Although Zhao Tiehu did not return to Zaozhuang as soon as possible, he received the combat order from Zhao Tiehu, and the officers and men of the task force who were currently insisting on fighting blockade and guerrilla attacks all felt as if they had a backbone.

Especially for the third detachment, which had just lost its detachment leader, Liu Yuanyuan, the former deputy detachment leader who had taken over the post of detachment leader, received a telegram and an order from Zhao Tiehu, and conveyed the news as soon as possible.

Looking at the several detachment commanders who were assembled, Liu Changyuan also said in a timely manner: "Comrades, the detachment leader has returned from Yan'an. Although we haven't returned to Zaozhuang yet, our intelligence detachment leader already knows.

This is a telegram just sent by the detachment commander, and I am temporarily assuming the post of detachment leader. At the same time, the detachment commander ordered us to shrink all the troops on the periphery and enter the secret camp. Deal with the little devil in the mountains and try to delay him for some time.

I believe that the detachment leader will definitely avenge the detachment leader, the little devil owes us a blood debt, and this time we will let them repay it double. And what we have to do now is to tell the soldiers to be patient a little longer, and the dawn of victory is about to appear! ”

'Yes, Team Liu! What about the people in the base areas? ’

'All transferred into the mountains!' We have set up several secret camps earlier to house the people in the base area. With the fortifications we had built earlier, and our familiarity with the terrain in the mountains, we will be able to hold back the little devils.

This time, we don't have to save anything, take out all the weapons we have stored earlier, and have a hard fight with the little devils. Isn't the little devil relying on the strength of the crowd? Then let's see how many lives the little devil is willing to fill in. ’

Although it is somewhat wasteful to abandon the base areas established on the periphery. But after receiving the order from Zhao Tiehu, Liu Changyuan also knew that those base areas, even if they were left to the little devils, it was estimated that the little devils would not want them.

At the end of the day, none of these bases have much value. The real value may be the people who have migrated to the base areas. What is the use of transferring the people into the mountains in advance, and the little devils want a base land with no one?

The same thing is happening in the other two bases. The Japanese army, which was still fighting with the Eighth Route Army earlier, suddenly found that the Eighth Route Army had withdrawn from the battle. Assaulting several villages in a row, they met no resistance at all.

What even makes the little devils who participated in the encirclement and suppression frustrating is that many places in these villages have laid mines. If you break into a random door and search, you may be injured or killed by a mine buried in the village. For a while, the little devil also wondered.

Major General Kurokawa, who was in charge of commanding the encirclement and suppression operation, was also surprised when he learned of this situation: "What about it? The Eighth Route Army abandoned their base and fled? ”

'Yes, General! According to the telegrams sent back by the front-line combat units, they had already raided several villages where the Tubalu guerrillas were stationed, and they did not see any civilians or guerrillas at all, and they seemed to have given up resistance! ’

In response to the words of the communications officer, Taro Miyamoto, who was standing in the war room, shook his head and said, "They did not give up resistance, but chose to avoid the front of our main force, trying to delay time and look for an opportunity to counterattack."

According to the telegram we received earlier, Zhao Tiehu, who was interrogated, has been released. In terms of time, I am afraid that he is very likely to have returned to Zaozhuang. Now it's time for us to really fight them! ”

'Miyamoto Shaoza, do you mean that this order was given by Zhao Tiehu? ’

'Quite possibly! According to the information we have earlier, this person is very prestigious among the anti-Japanese forces in Zaozhuang. Except for him, I'm afraid that no one will be able to command the dirt eight roads in three places at the same time. General, we must be more vigilant! ’

The name of the man, the shadow of the tree!

I have to say that Zhao Tiehu's earlier achievements have indeed left a deep shadow on these little devils. And this time Miyamoto Taro also knew that the head he redeemed earlier was not the head of the major general's brigade commander who was cut off at all.

It's just that about this information, the special high class can only pretend that it has not been received. After all, the human heads they ransomed earlier had been cremated together with the headless corpses that had been dormant for a long time, packed into urns and transported back to China.

If you tell the above now, this head is fake, then the special high class in charge of this matter will also have to bear a lot of responsibility. Because of this, Taro Miyamoto, who was supposed to be promoted for this matter, was naturally canceled as a reward.

Thinking of this, Miyamoto Taro also felt resentful. Fortunately, the spies of the previous special high school made meritorious service and guided the air force units on the ground, so that their air force accurately carried out the bombing and killed a high-ranking member of the Eighth Route Army in Zaozhuang.

And this situation was also guessed by Zhao Tiehu. Among the people who lived in the secret camp and the guerrillas in charge of security work, many counter-espionage personnel of the Eighth Route Army were also placed.

They have only one mission, to take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate the Japanese spies lurking in the ranks and among the people in the base area. Once those hidden piles strike again, it will inevitably be difficult to escape the monitoring of the counter-espionage personnel of the Eighth Route Army.

In Zhao Tiehu's opinion, after this lesson, he already knows that he not only has to fight with little devils, but also has to fight with them. Only by defeating the little devil in both things can he avoid being calculated by the little devil again.

The secret camps and ammunition storage depots that had been deployed earlier were activated, and the detachments, in coordination with the local troops, began to lay mines in a large area of the base area. Many places suitable for the passage of large Japanese troops were mined by local troops.

So much so that the little devils who participated in the encirclement and suppression finally realized what it means to be frightened step by step. Taking advantage of this opportunity, with the cooperation of the local troops and the main forces, the people in the base areas were also transferred at night one after another.

The reason why they didn't move during the day was very simple, they didn't want the people to know where they were hiding. Nor do they give the little devils a hidden stake or any chance to ventilate the news.

If the little devil's dark stake leaves a mark in the process of transferring, it is self-inflicted death. The counter-espionage personnel hidden in the transfer team will also take the opportunity to secretly arrest them, and even use these marks to lure the little devils into the trap.

In response to the possibility proposed by Taro Miyamoto, Major General Kurokawa did feel the pressure. In his opinion, if you want to solve the core of Zaozhuang's anti-Japanese war armed forces, the only way to do it is to kill Zhao Tiehu. But the problem is that they can't grasp Zhao Tiehu's whereabouts at all.

What's more, when Zhao Tiehu came back from Yan'an this time, he also brought thirty elite soldiers with him. Unless a large force is dispatched, if the general small force goes to ambush, it is still possible to be encircled and annihilated by Zhao Tiehu.

In order to ensure the safety of the county seats, and also to ensure the railway lines that were most likely to be attacked, Major General Kurokawa could only order that a part of the main force be transferred from the troops encircled and suppressed on the front line to strengthen the security of the railways and the county seats.

Only in this way will Major General Kurokawa feel a little more at ease. It's a pity that the defensive measures he made were very timely, but he still couldn't catch up with the speed of the special operations detachment. On the night of the retreat of the Zaozhuang troops, there was an accident on the railway line in Teng County.

Heichuan, who was woken up overnight, heard that the Tengxian section of the railway that had just been repaired before had been blasted for dozens of miles overnight, and couldn't help but burst into a rage: "Baga! What do the patrol forces eat? Didn't I say that we should be more vigilant? ”

'General! The officers and soldiers of the patrol force in charge of the blasted road sections were all shattered, and the other party was still using cold weapons. By the time the troops near us arrived after the detonation, the railroad had already been blown up.

Even in one night, the patrol force we deployed on the railway line had lost several hundred men. And the latest news is that our railway in the Jining section was also attacked by unknown armed forces last night, and the railway was blown up in many places! ’

'What about that?' The railway in the Jining section was also blown up? ’

'Yes! According to the feedback of the troops guarding the railway, the resistance forces that sabotaged the railway were also successfully killed by them. Judging from the clothing and fighting quality of those people, they should not be the elite troops of the Eighth Route Army. ’

The railways in Teng County were naturally carried out by Li Hao and the special operations detachment. The railways in Jining, on the other hand, were run by the railway guerrillas operating there. It's just that in last night's raid, the railway guerrillas also suffered a lot of casualties.

Fortunately, this kind of casualty is still acceptable in Zhao Tiehu's opinion. As soon as the railway in the Jining section is bombed, it is believed that the 32nd Division will not be able to sit still in the future. After all, this means that the war has been brought from Zaozhuang to Jining.

Next, will the little devil choose the railway of the Jining section of Libao, or the railway of the Zaozhuang section? This is also a question that the 32nd Division is facing and needs to be weighed urgently.

In order to avoid more fire from the Eighth Route Army in Jining, the 32nd Division must also be transferred back to the troops that entered Zaozhuang to defend themselves. But this time and again, there will be a lot of delay on the road, how can Zhao Tiehu give them a chance?

What's more, after receiving a telegram from Zhao Tiehu, the main force of the advance column, which had been resting for many days, had already left from various stations. Once a suitable fighter is found, I believe that the advance column will also teach the little devil a profound lesson.

But for Zhao Tiehu, none of these are what he wants. At present, he is leading two special operations detachments, which are already lurking near the headquarters of the 32nd Division, quietly waiting for the appearance of the target figure.

According to the information sent by the Jining underground transportation station, the commander of the 32nd Division, Lieutenant General and Division Commander Hyotaro Kimura, rarely went out in peacetime. Even when traveling, there are a large number of gendarmerie units to protect them.

It's just that for Zhao Tiehu, what he wants to do is not to eliminate these gendarmes who protect Kimura Hyotaro. What he had to do was simple, that is, kill Hyotaro Kimura, the division commander.

Taking advantage of the cover of night, Zhao Tiehu and the special combat team had already planted a 500-meter-long blasting belt on the road in and out of the division's headquarters. Once Hyotaro Kimura's convoy appears, the blast belt will make it impossible to eat and walk around.

Even if the explosion sounded and the nearby little devils could rush to support, Zhao Tiehu believed that he was fully capable of killing the division commander of Kimura Hyotaro before the little devil reinforcements arrived. Let the little devils know what a decapitation operation is!
