On a cold winter night, Xiao Siming led the team to walk through the mountains and mountains at the western foot of Taihang Mountain by moonlight.

Because of the wounded and walking for a while, the soldiers carrying the stretchers had to take turns to rest, and the wounded who had just recovered from serious injuries, including Xiao Siming and Wang Lushui, had to rest, and the marching speed was slow.

The load of pack horses has also reached its limit, and in addition to carrying supply ammunition, several wounded people who can ride horses are also helped to the old horses, reducing the number of stretchers.

Mei Ying marched with the stretcher team, and while the team was resting, she also had to check the wounds of the wounded and bandage them to avoid the rupture of the wounds caused by the bumps in the mountain march.

was so busy, the beautiful Mei Ying raised her head from time to time and secretly glanced at Xiao Siming, who was walking at the front of the team, to see what he was doing!

For Mei Ying, today's day is particularly significant! Because of Xiao Siming, she survived the guns of the little devils. And, the most important thing is that the tall, lean and lean red imp and the platoon commander of the Eighth Route Army unconsciously walked into her heart and lingered!

Mei Ying thought, why is Xiao Siming so bold, how can he dare to grab a gun empty-handed, and shoot calmly in the face of so many little devils alone? How could his marksmanship be so good?

What the beautiful Mei Ying thought in her heart, Xiao Siming definitely didn't know. At this moment, he had only one thought in his heart, that is, to rush to the vicinity of the county seat, hide it, and wait for an opportunity to attack and occupy the county seat!

After walking for about three hours, at about 8 o'clock in the evening, the team arrived at a small mountain village with only a dozen households to the east of Changchi.

In the bright moonlight, several corpses lay on the main road at the head of the village.

Xiao Siming and Chen Desheng touched it, and when they saw that the corpse was wearing the clothes of local villagers, they reached out and touched it, the corpse was still a little warm, and it seemed that they had just been shot by the devil.

After retreating, Xiao Siming took the team to the bottom of a hill at the entrance of the village, where there were abandoned caves where the wounded could be temporarily hidden.

Xiao Siming asked Wang Lushui, Chen Yisheng and Mei Ying to stay behind to take care of the pack horses and protect the wounded, and let the grenadier squad leave the grenadier and the machine gun squad to leave the machine gun, and all changed rifles and pistols to participate in the battle.

After a simple arrangement, Xiao Siming led the team into the village quietly.

As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the village, I heard the cries and moans of women and the wild laughter of little devils coming from a courtyard at the head of the village.

Xiao Siming waved his hand, and the four combat squads separated, each rushing into a courtyard.

Xiao Siming followed Zhang Huaide's grenadier squad and took the lead in rushing into the first courtyard at the entrance of the village.

There were two corpses lying in the courtyard, and two devils with slanted rifles were holding the door frames of three thatched houses, and they were looking into the house, and they were still giggling and talking about birds, completely unaware that there was already a black hole behind them.

With a slight wave of their hands, the fighters opened fire, and the two little devils instantly lay on the threshold.

After rushing into the house, I saw a few devils standing inside, their rifles were leaning against the corner, and the ghost soldiers had already taken off their coats and trousers, as if they were waiting in line to vent their beasts' desires!

Xiao Siming, who entered the house first, just when the devils turned their heads in shock, the Wang Ba box in his hand opened fire "bang bang", and the bullet went straight to the little devil's head, hitting the brain to the ground.

When Xiao Siming and the soldiers stepped on the corpse of the devil and walked into the inner room, a naked little devil and the woman who was still crawling on the kang kept stirring, as if they hadn't heard the gunshots at all.

A soldier stabbed the little devil in the waist with a bayonet, Xiao Siming said "let me come", grabbed the little devil's leg with his left hand and pulled it hard, and pulled the little devil off the woman's body, and the Wang Ba box in his right hand was shot at the devil's anus, and the bullet pierced through the top of the devil's head, and the white brains and bright red blood sprayed onto the wall next to the bed at once.

Glancing at the woman on the kang, seeing that she was just a fourteen or fifteen-year-old little girl, her body was not fully developed, Xiao Siming sighed, grabbed the devil's clothes and threw them over, covering the girl's *naked* body, turned around and walked out of the house.

After a short time, a scream was heard from inside the house.

The fighters reported that the little girl had committed suicide with a pair of scissors.

Xiao Siming's face sank so much that he was about to wring out the water, and scolded hatefully "little devil of the dog*day*", and walked out of the courtyard gate.

This battle went very smoothly, and the twenty-six little devils who came out of Changchi Town to do evil, when they vented their beast *desire*, bumped into the guns of the Eighth Route Army, and they all died.

In addition to the seizure of twenty-four rifles, two Wang Ba boxes and ammunition carried by the devil soldiers, the biggest gain was that the six surviving young people in this small mountain village joined Xiao Siming's team to follow the Eighth Route Army and fight devils to avenge their relatives.

The six young men were temporarily put into the stretcher team.

After meeting with Wang Lushui, Chen Yisheng, and Mei Ying, Chen Yisheng said, it is a pity that there is no radio, if there is a radio, the entire guerrilla brigade will be transferred and placed under the command of Xiao Siming, and he will pestering devils to fight guerrillas in this area. In this way of fighting, if you only take advantage of the advantages and do not suffer losses, the combat effectiveness of the troops will soon come up!

As he spoke, Chen Yisheng proposed to Wang Lushui that he should not let Xiao Siming and them return to the building, so he stayed in Yu County and was incorporated into the Guerrilla Brigade of Mengpingyang Shouyu Five Counties, Xiao Siming became the captain, and the former captain Han Chunde was reappointed as the political commissar.

This Chen Yisheng, when he was in the Tibetan Mountain Temple, when Xiao Siming proposed that the platoon he led belonged to Xiao Siming's command, he also yelled at Xiao Siming, accusing Xiao Siming of wanting to annex his team, and now seeing Xiao Siming leading the troops to fight devils is like drinking cold water, he actually gave birth to the idea of leaving Xiao Siming and the wounded team behind.

Wang Lushui refused, saying that Zeng Xiansheng, the commander of the fifth company of the second battalion of the 685th regiment where Xiao Siming was located, had died in the battle of Pingxingguan, and that the instructor Yang Junsheng had just returned to the team after being wounded, and that the fifth company lacked a strong company commander. Xiao Siming is the only surviving platoon commander of the Fifth Company, and he has been the commander of the Red Army company twice, and he will definitely be the commander of the Fifth Company after returning to the team. This second battalion was reorganized from the Red Fifth Regiment and was the main force of our army. The fifth company is the sharp knife of the second battalion, and it is an assault company in the battle of Pingxingguan, and the cadres must be strengthened! Now the second battalion has strengthened a company, and it has been renamed the fifth detachment of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army, and it is called the Yongxing detachment to the outside world. Not only Xiao Siming is going back to be the commander of the main company, but after the other wounded return to the team, they must be promoted to platoon commander, squad leader to platoon commander, and soldier to squad leader. A cadre like Xiao Siming, who can fight, will definitely be a battalion commander or regiment commander in the main force in the future as the army expands, so how can he stay in the local guerrillas?

Chen Yisheng was not convinced, saying that the guerrilla brigade of Mengpingyang Shouyu five counties could also be the main force in the future! What is the main force? Isn't it a well-equipped, combat-ready, and capable army? Zhengtai Road is full of little devils, let Xiao Siming lead the guerrilla brigade to fight a few more battles, capture more, and equip it, won't the combat effectiveness go up?

Wang Lushui didn't want to quarrel with Chen Yisheng, saying that there was no need to talk about it, it was impossible!

In fact, Wang Lushui still has a subtext in his heart, that is, the 115th Division has been separated, and the troops taken away by Political Commissar Nie will be separated from the 115th Division in the future and belong to the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region.

Mei Ying's beautiful eyes flashed, and she asked Wang Lushui a little disbelievingly: "Political Commissar Wang, Xiao Siming is only 18 years old, and he can also be a company commander, battalion commander, and regiment commander?" ”

Wang Lushui said angrily: "When Senior Commander Lin was the commander of the Red First Army, he was only 20 years old!" ”

Chen Yisheng was careful, and he had already seen that Mei Ying looked at Xiao Siming a little bit, so he couldn't help but joke: "Xiao Siming must also be the head of the regiment!" If you are not the head of the regiment, you can't get married and marry a daughter-in-law! The standard for cadres to be allowed to talk to in Yan'an is the 258th Regiment, that is, 25 years old, 8 years of military experience, and regiment-level cadres! Xiao Siming has just turned seventeen years old, and he has only entered the eighteen-year-old, and he has been in the army for less than eight years. ”

Mei Ying's face turned red all of a sudden, her head hung down, and she inexplicably remembered that she was three years older than Xiao Siming, and her heart suddenly collapsed and she was silent.

After a night of marching, at dawn, Xiao Siming and his team finally turned out of the mountain, entered the county basin, and arrived at a village at the foot of the mountain in the north of the county.

This village is relatively large, seven or eight miles away from the county seat.

When you're lucky, you can't stop it!

When Xiao Siming led the team to the entrance of the village, he found that the little devil was gathering on the threshing floor at the head of the village, ready to set off.

There are more than fifty devils, neatly arranged, the military uniforms are straight, the costumes are neat, the pack horses have also been loaded, and the leader of the devil squad is carrying the Wang Ba box and the command knife on his waist, and he is taking the roll call.

Xiao Siming and the others came in along a ditch, and when they arrived at the bottom of the edge of the threshing floor, the little devils didn't notice them.

In this case, it is best to exert machine gun fire!

Xiao Siming didn't even need to command, the machine gun squad leader Yuan Gang had already led the soldiers to mount three Type 96 light machine guns on the edge of the field, and the other soldiers also pounced, and the 38 big cover in his hand was also set up on the edge of the field. As Xiao Siming said the word "type", the crisp cry of the Type 96 light machine gun rang out, and the shouts of "horn hook" and "horn hook" of the 38 big cover also sounded.

How could this group of little devils have thought that when they were gathering for roll call and preparing to leave, such a dense Arizaka bullet was fired from behind? Is this a pure one-sided slaughter!

In just two minutes, the battle was over. On the threshing floor lay the corpses of the little devils, blood pouring everywhere.

After stopping shooting, for the sake of safety, Xiao Siming asked the soldiers to carefully inspect the corpses of the devils and replenish the guns on the heads of some of the little devils who were not yet dead.
