Looking at Zhao Tiehu and his entourage, who successfully returned to the camp in the mountains, Liu Cheng and the others, who returned ahead of schedule, also seemed relieved. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info It's just that at this moment, everyone is still a little worried about the Japanese puppet army that is gradually gathering under the mountain.

Even if he had learned from Zhao Tiehu earlier, the combat detachment needed to share the pressure for the independent battalion and ensure that the little devil's attention was on the combat detachment. In this way, the pressure on the side of the independent battalion will be much less.

But now, seeing more and more little devils gathered at the foot of the mountain, the pressure on everyone's hearts is not small. After all, compared to the armed forces of the Eighth Route Army in Taigu, the armed forces of the Japanese army in the surrounding areas were undoubtedly much stronger.

Zhao Tiehu, who ordered the troops to eat as soon as he returned to the mountain, said while drinking soup and nibbling on steamed buns: "Relax, the little devil will not dare to chase after the mountain for a while." Even if they want to go into the mountains to encircle and suppress, they have to wait until the follow-up army arrives.

After a night of fighting, let the comrades take a break after eating. It is only necessary to send a combat detachment to be on duty in front of the mountain, and if a little devil touches it in, he will shoot it, and I believe that the little devil will not be able to touch us in a short time.

If there are too many troops from the little devils, we will go a little further into the mountains, and the little devils will not be able to do anything to us. Zhongyi, the weapons and ammunition you were asked to transport earlier have all been hidden, right? ”

"Company Commander Zhao, it's all hidden. In accordance with your previous instructions, I have stored the ammunition in several secret camps in the mountains. As long as the troops pass, those ammunition can be activated at any time. ’

Wu Zhongyi, the guerrilla leader of Qi County, who was sent back by Zhao Tiehu early in the morning, undoubtedly admired and excited about the battle of robbing the military column. Even if the guerrillas didn't do anything, they still felt very honored.

In any case, their guerrillas were also involved in the previous attack on the Wangzhuang stronghold and the robbery of the military columns. When the time comes, when the superiors will award them for their merits, I believe that they will also have a share of the merits of the Qi County guerrillas.

After listening to Wu Zhongyi's report, Zhao Tiehu nodded with a smile and said, "Not bad!" Thank you very much! Lao Liu, have all our wounded been transferred? Have the sacrificed soldiers been properly settled? ”

'Yes! When we withdrew to the mountains earlier, according to your orders, the wounded were sent to the base of the independent battalion. As for the comrades who died, I also asked Battalion Commander Zhang to bury them properly.

By the way, when we came back earlier, Battalion Commander Zhang was worried about our lack of manpower, so he transferred another 30 veterans from the independent battalion. Now that you are resting in the rear camp, would you like to go and see it? ’

This news made Zhao Tiehu somewhat surprised, but thinking about the team members he sent to the independent battalion for treatment and recuperation, there seemed to be nearly thirty of them. Zhang Mingxiang is now sending these veterans over, probably because he knows that he is short of manpower.

Thinking of this, Zhao Tiehu thought for a while and said, "Since everyone has been brought back, then you can discuss with Sun Jie and them, assign these thirty veterans to their various combat detachments, and let the veterans take them with them."

As for those wounded, they will recover from their injuries in the future, and it is estimated that they will not be able to return for a while. With Mingxiang taking care of me, I can rest assured. Forget it, let's do this first, and let the combat detachments prepare to meet the big army of the little devils!

Everything we laid out in the mountains earlier can be arranged at this time. In a word, you can let the little devil into the mountain, but you must let the little devil taste what it is like to go into the mountain and be slaughtered. Next, fight for it, and eliminate some more little devils. ”

'Yes! It's just that what if the little devil sets fire to the mountain? ’

If the little devil really wants to burn the mountain, we can't stop it. If it doesn't work, we retreat into the mountains. However, in order to make sure that the little devils really set fire to the mountain, you cut a few firebreaks in front of you and don't let the fire lead deep into the mountains.

In short, as long as the little devil doesn't go into the mountain, we will have a good rest in the mountain. If the little devils go into the mountains, then we will treat them well in the mountains. The more little devils who come in, the less daring the little devils are to easily set fire to the mountain.

In the first few hills, we only need to block it moderately, let the little devil know that we haven't left, and don't have to hit too hard and scare the little devil away. We want to make the little devils feel that our strength is limited, and let them continue to send large troops into the mountains.

If there are really a lot of little devils coming in, even if they don't set fires, I will think about setting them on fire. In short, the combat detachments are well equipped for hard fighting, and the little devils will seize the time to rest before they come, understand? ’

'Yes! I see! I'll pass on your orders! ’

Compared with Zhao Tiehu's order to all combat detachments to guard the various intersections into the mountain, the Japanese troops pursuing to the bottom of the mountain also seemed to be in a dilemma. After chasing them all the way, they have already suffered many casualties.

At present, it is difficult to enter the vast mountains to carry out the pursuit. The little devil officer in charge of the pursuit finally ordered to assemble at the mountain pass and wait for the follow-up large army to arrive.

With only the hundreds of Japanese troops he brought, once they entered the mountains, they were in danger of being wiped out. After all, in the course of the previous pursuit, the Japanese had already discovered that the Eighth Route Army that was blocking them only had a few dozen people, but they still suffered heavy casualties.

As the sky began to brighten, the defenders of the surrounding cities who had received orders for support also rushed to the Wangzhuang stronghold one after another. Looking at the corpses that were being collected one after another, the reinforcements from all walks of life who rushed to support looked a little incredulous.

Not to mention the casualties of those puppet troops, the casualties of thousands of Japanese troops alone made the Japanese troops who came to help feel greatly shocked. In the end, it was the anti-Japanese war force that had such strength and almost wiped out the Taigu garrison force.

Coupled with the hundreds of elite Japanese soldiers escorting the train, after a whole night of fighting, there were thousands of Japanese corpses that were collected. Such a huge loss, even the large Japanese army that was in charge of sweeping on the front line may not have such casualties!

Knowing that the retreating Eighth Route Army had fled into the Yunling Mountains, several Japanese adjutants who came to support also began to discuss the next clearance matters. For them, this Eighth Route Army undoubtedly slapped them in the face.

Looking at the map that had been laid out, the Qi County garrison officer, who was temporarily the commander-in-chief, said with a somewhat serious expression: "Gentlemen, the group of Tubalu that we are going to eliminate next is very cunning, and the situation in Yunling Mountain, where they chose to flee, is very complicated.

According to the current information, the vegetation of the Yunling Mountains is very lush and extensive, and even along this mountain range, it can extend to several surrounding counties. Therefore, if we want to act, we must seize the time to do it.

If it drags on for too long, I am afraid that the arms they have stolen earlier may be diverted by them. In order to eliminate the elite of this earth road, I hope that you will be able to unite sincerely in the future! ”

'Long live His Majesty the Emperor! Long live the Great Day Bowl Empire! ’

After the adjutants roared, the Qi County garrison officer said again: "Previously, Domoto Dazuo had already sent a training telegram, ordering us to recover this loss at all costs and eliminate this tributary of the crimes.

Next, we divided into three echelons, from the left and right and the center to enter Yunling Mountain, once we exchanged fire with the earth eight roads, we must entangle them, and these earth eight roads are not allowed to escape. When searching, we should also pay attention to looking for our looted supplies. ”

As the sky had already brightened, many of the Japanese troops who came to help were completely sleepless. But for the Eighth Route Army that fled into the mountain pass, why didn't it take a night without rest?

At this time, there was simply no time to give the troops a rest. Therefore, after a brief pre-war meeting, the large Japanese troops that arrived one after another began to advance into the Yunling Mountains in three directions.

However, for the combat detachment that had taken refuge in the mountains in advance, had eaten enough, and rested for two or three hours, it also did not feel any surprise in the face of the Japanese army's large-scale search of the mountains. It can be said that it would be strange for the Japanese army not to search the mountains!

The sentry on duty quickly woke up Zhao Tiehu, who was in Maojue, and Zhao Tiehu, who had poured some cold water from the kettle, sneered when he learned that the little devil had begun to enter the mountain in a big way, and sneered: "The one who sent him to death is here, order the troops to prepare for battle!" ”

The combat team members who hid in the mountains like Zhao Tiehu also cheered up one after another as the little devils entered the mountains. Knowing that the Japanese soldiers searched the mountains in three ways, Zhao Tiehu also did not feel any surprise.

In fact, earlier he had separated the three combat detachments and guarded the passage into the mountains. Once the situation is not right, Zhao Tiehu will also order the troops to retreat while fighting and retreating deep into the mountains.

If you really want to run into the mountains, it is estimated that if the little devil wants to track it, it will also consume a lot of manpower and material resources. After all, if the Yunling Mountain Range is large, there is no problem at all if you want to hide an army of more than 200 people.

Following the footprints left by the Eighth Route Army entering the mountains, a puppet army squad that took the lead said with a little vigilance and worry: "These little devils know how to use us as cannon fodder." Such a big mountain, go there to find the eight roads! ”

'Stop yelling! When searching the mountain, my eyes are a little brighter, and once I find that the situation is not right, I will lie down honestly. These little devils are really stupid, running into the mountains to fight with the eight roads, isn't this looking for death? ’

For many puppet soldiers who have dealt with the Eighth Route Army, they are very aware of the Eighth Route Army's ability to drill ravines. Although the Japanese army is stronger at this moment, many heavy weapons of the Japanese army cannot be carried into this mountain.

The Japanese troops who followed behind the puppet army also advanced in battle formation, urging the puppet army at the head from time to time to continue to advance. In the eyes of these little devils, these Imperial Allies are used as cannon fodder.

After crossing the first mountain, the Japanese puppet army in charge of the search did not encounter any attacks at all, and certainly did not see any Eighth Route Army. Just as they were about to enter the second mountain, several retreating forward sentinels began to hide in the shadows and aim and shoot.

As a forward reconnaissance post opened fire, a puppet squad leader who was walking in front fell in response. At the same time, the puppet army of the entire squad also fell down in an instant. Seeing this scene, the little devil who followed behind him almost vomited blood.

One shot scares a piece, the combat effectiveness of these puppet armies is really muddy and can't support the wall! But no matter what, this gunshot also proves that their dragnet-style mountain search operation still blocked the Eighth Route Army that fled into the mountains!
