There are indeed only three spies in the mountain temple, and there are also five traitors hired by spies to spy on the intelligence of the Eighth Route Army for them, all of whom are eating, and the food is not bad, it is the canned food and rice dumplings carried by the spies.

The two grenades, coupled with Xiao Siming and Chen Desheng's Wang Ba box and barge gun, ended the battle very easily.

Xiao Siming searched the three spies from the inside out, found three documents of the Taiyuan secret service agency from the spies, put them in his clothes pockets, and collected the pistols and bullet clips of the three spies.

Originally, I thought that the spies might be riding motorcycles, but I didn't find them after going around the mountain temple, which means that the three spies didn't ride motorcycles or even bicycles in order to hide their whereabouts.

It seems that the little devil is ruthless, and he has to find the Eighth Route Army that attacked Taiyuan Airport after suffering hardships!

After killing the three spies and five traitors, Xiao Siming and Chen Desheng went out of the mountain temple and found a leeward place to hide, wanting to see if there were any spies or traitors who came here to die.

I waited for two hours, but I didn't wait for any more traitors. Xiao Siming judged that it might be the grenade explosion and gunfire just now, and the traitors who rushed here were scared away when they heard the wind, so they didn't wait any longer, returned the same way, and went to chase the troops.

When walking on the road, Xiao Siming was puzzled, since the Japanese planes had already circled the target in this area, why did the spies from Taiyuan City spend money to hire those traitors to go to the village to spy on them? Why didn't the little devil send troops to pull the net here to search? Could it really be that the main force of the Japanese army in Taiyuan went south to fight and the troops were insufficient?

If it was replaced by other generals of the Eighth Route Army, it was likely that the Japanese army was insufficient. But Xiao Siming is not an ordinary general of the Eighth Route Army, he is a soul traverser, he knows the situation of the Japanese army well, and knows that the Japanese army in North China at this time has strong troops, and at the same time fights in the two battlefields of Shandong and Shanxi. Moreover, in this month, that is, in February 1938, the Japanese army was newly organized into four independent mixed brigades, the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th independent mixed brigades, and in addition to the second brigade stationed in Zhangjiakou, the 3rd, 4th, and 5th independent mixed brigades were on standby in Beiping, Hebei, and Tianjin, preparing to participate in the battle to capture Xuzhou. Not to mention other troops, these three independent mixed brigades can be transferred to the Shanxi battlefield anytime and anywhere if needed.

Although Zhengtai Road has not yet been opened to traffic, the railway from Beiping, Tianjin, Baoding to Yangquan is unblocked, and if necessary, the Japanese army is very fast in transporting troops!

Xiao Siming thought about it, and couldn't understand what tricks the Japanese army was doing, how could it look like the Taiyuan Army secret service and the Japanese air force were playing their own flutes and pressing their own eyes? Doesn't it seem to be in tune!

Xiao Siming could never have imagined that the Japanese plane's search and reconnaissance in this area was the result of a conspiracy by General Terauchi Toshiichi, commander of the North China Front, Lieutenant General Naosaburo Okabe, chief of staff, and Major General Shozo Kawabe, deputy chief of staff, and that these spies from Taiyuan were instructed by Lieutenant General Kawagishi Fumizaburo, commander of the 20th Division, to handle them by Gudina Huaxiong Dazuo, head of the Taiyuan secret service organ. Don't say that he can't figure it out, even Gudina Huaxiong Dazuo, who planned the spies' actions, may not be able to figure it out!

The little devil really looks up to Xiao Siming too much!

The fact that the commander, chief of staff, and deputy chief of staff of the North China Front Army can personally plan and send planes to reconnoiter and search for a small battalion-level contingent shows that the independent battalion fought this battle ruthlessly and accurately, and the knife stabbed into the vital parts of the Japanese army, and the little devil felt pain to the bone marrow!

Xiao Siming, who was full of questions, could only lead Chen Desheng to hurry with his head bored!

When they returned to Sangshuping Village, Zheng Xiuchuan, Shi Poshan, and Mo Shan had already buried the martyrs with their troops and moved according to the plan. Xiao Siming and Chen Desheng can only continue to chase the troops!

Chased all the way, and at 8 o'clock in the morning, Xiao Siming and Chen Desheng caught up with the troops in Huangling Village, which is north of Shouyang and at the junction of Yangqu and Yuxian.

The independent battalion was a covert transfer, day and night, and at this time, the troops were already camped in Huangling Village.

This is already the base of Shouyu Central County in Mengpingyang, and it is safe.

The front team that followed the army from Sangshuping Village had completed this mission and could return. However, in order not to be discovered by the Japanese planes, the front team had to wait until the evening to leave Huangling Village and return to Sangshuping.

Xiao Siming rushed all night and was sleepy, and after entering the village, he asked Zheng Xiuchuan about the vigilance, and then went to the villager's house that had been arranged with Chen Desheng to fall asleep.

By the time Xiao Siming woke up, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

After getting up and washing up and eating, Xiao Siming complained that Zheng Xiuchuan, Shi Poshan, and Mo Shan were not sensible, why didn't they wake him up earlier, how could they let him sleep for so long!

Zheng Xiuchuan said that it was a long-distance march to catch up with the troops, and the battalion commander must be too tired to recover his vitality if he didn't sleep well. It's better to get enough sleep!

This is also true!

Xiao Siming is now seriously saying that he is still growing his body, only when he sleeps enough, can he grow taller, and he has the spirit to fight!

Xiao Siming asked Zheng Xiuchuan, has the radio been turned on? Have you contacted the divisional headquarters?

Zheng Xiuchuan said no, because the Japanese machine came as soon as it was dawn, and it seemed to draw a circle from Sangshuping to Huangling Village, and it came almost every two hours, and the radio station could not be turned on at all.

It seems that the overnight march has not yet run out of the search range of the Japanese aircraft!

As she was talking, Mei Ying came, along with Chen Mingbo's wife Zhang Yun!

Mei Ying couldn't see Xiao Siming when the team set off last night, so she ran to ask the deputy instructor Shi Poshan, only to know that Xiao Siming took Chen Desheng to clean up the devil spies.

After Zhang Yun arrived at the independent battalion, when she saw that the head of the propaganda section of the independent battalion was so beautiful, she remembered that Xiao Siming had said at her house that the subject was also working in the independent battalion, and she immediately understood who the object in Xiao Siming's mouth was.

Twenty-eight or nine-year-old young women, and have lived in the provincial capital Taiyuan for a long time, Zhang Yun must have social skills, and after a short time, she met Mei Ying, and volunteered to follow Mei Ying to engage in publicity, and the two soon became inseparable.

Seeing Mei Ying, Zhang Yun's original idea of introducing her sister Zhang Yan to Xiao Siming was completely dispelled. No way, Mei Ying is so beautiful, who can compare to her!

Mei Ying and Xiao Siming are still in the stage of having it in their eyes and hearts, although Xiao Siming publicly said that Mei Ying was his object in front of Zhang Shaodong and others, but he didn't talk to Mei Ying seriously in private, and Mei Ying didn't promise him anything at all. The two of them are still hazy now!

Zhang Yun is much more mature than Mei Ying!

Since he met Xiao Siming in Taiyuan City, in Zhang Yun's eyes, Xiao Siming is a resourceful and courageous anti-Japanese hero, the kind of real hero and hero! This and Mei Ying were familiar, and between the conversations, Zhang Yun soon found out that Xiao Siming and Mei Ying had not really pierced the window paper, so she reminded Mei Ying to take the initiative and be generous, don't let the duck fly to the beak. You know, this is the Anti-Japanese War era, the girls worship the anti-Japanese heroes the most, if Mei Ying hesitates any longer, be careful which day a stunned young girl will come out, she is not afraid of heaven and earth, she is not afraid of the earth, she will fight hard, maybe she will snatch Camp Commander Xiao away. When the time comes, you won't have a place to cry!

Mei Ying blushed and her heart beat when she said it, and she could only say whatever she wanted, who she wanted to be good with and who she wanted, she was not uncommon!

It is not uncommon to say that as soon as she heard that Xiao Siming got up, Mei Ying still involuntarily ran to him, and took Zhang Yun with her, saying that she was bringing Zhang Yun to meet the battalion commander to see if she could let Zhang Yun go to the Propaganda Department to assist in the work.

This girl has different standards of heart!

As soon as Mei Ying came, Zheng Xiuchuan, Shi Poshan, and Mo Shan all used the excuse of inspecting the work of each company and hid out!

In front of Zhang Yun, Mei Ying really reported her work seriously, and at the end, please ask Xiao Siming if she can let Zhang Yun go to the Propaganda Department to help with the work.

Zhang Yun is educated and relatively mature, so he can naturally work in the Propaganda Section. It's just that Xiao Siming has other plans, only saying that he will temporarily assist in the propaganda department, and then adjust it when the troops arrive at the base area!

As soon as the matter was decided, Zhang Yun said, "Then I'll go first", left Mei Ying, and ran out first.

This is creating a chance for Xiao Siming and Mei Ying to be alone!

Unexpectedly, Mei Ying was thin-skinned, as soon as Zhang Yun left, her pretty face turned red, her eyes suddenly watery, and she said to Xiao Siming, "I'm also leaving", and even ran out and chased Zhang Yun away.

Looking at Mei Ying's delicate and graceful back, Xiao Siming swallowed saliva in his mouth and muttered hatefully: "I'll let you run, let you run, see if you can run to the sky!" Someday, I'm going to knock you down, so that you don't want to be beautiful! ”

If people hear this, they will definitely think that the independent battalion commander of the Eighth Route Army has such a dirty mind, what is it, a hooligan!

Just thinking about it, there was a report outside the gate of the hospital, and the voice was Chen Minghui, the instructor of the Third Company, and Xiao Siming said, "Come in!" ”

Chen Minghui didn't come alone, but also brought one person, Yang Tong, the former deputy captain of the baggage team.

Yang Tong was the deputy platoon commander of the anti-Japanese guerrilla brigade in Mengpingyang Shouyu County, and he joined Chen Yisheng with Xiao Siming's wounded squad at the Tibetan Mountain Temple, and after being reorganized, he participated in a series of battles of the independent battalion in Yuxian County. At that time, Chen Minghui was the captain of the baggage team.

Later, at Chen Yisheng's request, the platoon was all transferred back to the anti-Japanese guerrilla brigade of Mengpingyang Shouyu Five Counties and separated from the independent battalion system.

Yang Tong can also be regarded as Xiao Siming's old comrade-in-arms and old subordinates!

Seeing Xiao Siming this time, Yang Tong saluted with Chen Minghui, and said, "Camp Commander Xiao, I can look forward to you coming back", and the tears in his eyes couldn't hold back, and they fell down!

Xiao Siming panicked and hurriedly asked, "Yang Tong, what are you crying about?" What happened? ”

Yang Tong choked up and said, "Camp Chief Xiao, Secretary Chen has sacrificed!" ”

Xiao Siming was stunned! (To be continued.) )
