Seeing the large army of devils leaving, Hong Yu immediately commanded the soldiers to quickly approach the road. After about a quarter of an hour, the Devil's transport squadron appeared in everyone's sight, looking at the Devil's baggage troops that were getting closer and closer. Hong Yu gently pulled the bolt of the submachine gun and ordered: "Ready!" ”

As Hong Yu's order was given, the fighters pulled the bolts of the submachine guns in their hands one after another. After about five minutes, all of the devil's baggage troops entered the ambush circle. Seeing that the timing was right, Hong Yu shouted loudly while throwing a grenade at the devil's first truck: "Fight!" ”

"Da Da ......, bang bang ......" Suddenly the sound of grenade explosions and the gunfire of submachine guns rang out. In just ten minutes, Hong Yu took the soldiers of the special task force to send all the devils who escorted the supplies back to their hometown.

Just as Hong Yu and his troops were cleaning up the battlefield, Captain Tato Ryosuke, who was walking in the middle of the large army, heard the sound of gunfire and explosions coming from behind him, and immediately gave the order to stop advancing. Not long after the troops stopped, the executive officer Matsuura Mitsuro ran up to Ryosuke Tato and asked, "Your Excellency Shaoza, what are your orders?!" ”

Without waiting for Ryosuke Tato to speak, the soldiers behind him ran over and reported: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, our light and heavy (baggage) troops have been attacked by that person!" ”

"Nani?!" When Tato Ryosuke heard that the baggage troops following behind him were attacked, the murderous aura on his body instantly emanated, and he ordered in a cold voice: "Matsuura-kun, you bring a squadron to reinforce the light and heavy troops." Be sure to wipe out all the people who are coming. ”

"Hey!" Matsuura Mishiro answered, and immediately rushed to the position of the baggage force with a squadron of troops. When Matsuura Misaburo arrived with his troops, everything was gone, except for the corpses of the soldiers of the baggage troops left on the ground.

Seeing this scene, Saburo Matsuura saw the low trees on the side of the road from the angry swing of his sword, and said to the herald: "Report the situation to Tato and Sasaku immediately!" ”

"Hey!" The herald answered, and immediately ran to the position of the large army. Then Matsuura Mishiro ordered: "Leave a team to clean up the scene, and the rest of the people will chase after me along the wheel print!" ”

However, when Matsuura Sanro and his men chased him for about half an hour, the herald found him and handed over the order given by Ryosuke Tato to stop the pursuit. After receiving the order, Matsuura Misaburo had no choice but to stop the pursuit and lead the troops to catch up with the large army.

After running for more than two hours, near noon, Mitsuburo Matsuura caught up with the large army, came to the front of Tato Ryosuke, lowered his head and said, "Your Excellency Shaosa, I'm sorry!" I didn't catch up with the man who was attacking the squadron of light and heavy soldiers. ”

Ryosuke Tato took the hat and clothes from the soldiers on the side, handed them to Mitaro Matsuura, and said, "Matsuura-kun, what do you look at at this time?!" ”

Matsuura Sanro took the clothes and hat and looked at them, and said, "This is the clothes and hats of the Naguni army. And judging by the style of this dress, it should be the third war zone. A descendant of the Zhinaguni Army. ”

"Yes!" Ryosuke Tato nodded slightly, and then said: "It seems that there is not only the New Fourth Army in this vicinity, but also the troops of the Kuomintang. The reason why I asked you to stop the pursuit was because I was afraid that you would fall into the trap of the man. ”

Matsuura Sanro asked, "Your Excellency Shaoza, are we just letting go of the person who attacked us?!" ”

Tato Ryosuke snorted coldly and said, "I have already reported this matter to the Wing Ikeda Ryoji Daisa, he will send troops to search for those who attacked us, as long as we complete the previous order, we don't have to worry about the rest!" ”

Matsuura Sanro said worriedly: "Your Excellency, our baggage is lost. The dry rations we carry can only last one day, and we don't have enough ammunition, what if it affects the operation?! ”

Ryosuke Tato said, "Ikeda has already sent a baggage force and is expected to be able to catch up with us by dusk today. Well, time is running out now. Let's hurry up and continue to drive to the predetermined location! ”

At the same time, Hong Yu led people to clean up the traces left behind, and led the troops to carry the looted materials and walked towards the cattle herding mountain. At dusk, Hong Yu led the troops into the cattle herding mountain smoothly and joined the large army.

The next morning, around eight o'clock. **A dense burst of artillery and gunfire rang out in the direction. Hong Yu and the others were awakened when they heard the gunshots and cannons, and hurriedly ran out of the top with their clothes on, holding binoculars and looking in the direction where the cannonades came from. Tang Xingye said: "Regiment leader, it seems that the devil has launched an attack on **!" ”

Hong Yu nodded slightly and put down the binoculars. Gu Zhenghai said: "Fortunately, we were prepared and evacuated all the people there. Otherwise, if the little devil can't find it, we will definitely sprinkle all our anger on the heads of the common people. ”

Zhang Guohua said: "Now the little devil is there to pounce. It is estimated that it will not be long before leaving. ”

Hong Yu shook his head and said, "Lao Zhang, I don't agree with you. I guess the little devil is ready to entrench for a long time this time. I think we're ready to move. ”

As Hong Yu expected, after the 51st Wing arrived at **, it received an order from the division headquarters to stay in place.

Time passed little by little, and it was the Spring Festival of 1941. Because of the "Southern Anhui Incident" that occurred not long ago, and the devils everywhere around, the independent group did not have the joy of the New Year at all, and they all looked sad.

Yancheng, the joint headquarters of the Eighth Route Army of the New Fourth Army.

"Report!"

"Come in!" Hu Fu, secretary of the Central Committee of the Central Plains, is working with the secretary of the Central Committee of the Central Plains (Liu Shao Qi pseudonym, in order to avoid river crabs, all of the latter are replaced by this name, and no supplementary explanations will be made later. Commander Chen, who was discussing the matter, heard the shouts coming from the door, and immediately stopped communicating with Hu Fu, and turned to look at the door of the headquarters.

It didn't take long for the commander of the guard company to walk in and say, "Commander Chen, our patrol fighters have caught three people with suspicious whereabouts. They said they had been sent by the Independent Regiment to find their superiors. As he spoke, the commander of the guard company took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Commander Chen, saying, "This is a letter found from them." ”

Commander Chen and Hu Fu glanced at each other, and Commander Chen took the letter, opened it, and read it. After reading the contents of the letter, Commander Chen had a long-lost smile on his face and asked, "Where are they?!" ”

The commander of the guard company replied: "They are locked up in the guard company by us. ”

Before the commander of the guard company finished speaking, Commander Chen interrupted: "Go and invite them!" ”

"Yes!" The commander of the guard company answered, turned and left. Hu Fu asked at this time: "Lao Chen, what makes you so happy?!" ”

Commander Chen handed over the letter and said, "Take a look! ”

Hu Fu took the letter, quickly read the contents of the letter, and said: "This independent regiment mentioned it to me last time when I went to the military headquarters of the New Fourth Army. Originally, I was going to send people to look for the soldiers who had broken through the siege near Maolin to look for the independent group, but I didn't expect them to come to the door by themselves. ”

"yes!" Chen Jun sighed and continued, "There is an important issue that we have not considered before. ”

Hu Fu reacted immediately and said, "Are you worried that the reorganization plan has just been reported, and there is no way to arrange an independent group?!" ”

"Yes!" Commander Chen asked, "What do you think?!" ”

Hu Fu said with a smile: "The Independent League was able to contribute so many people and materials at this time. I'm sure they'll take care of the big picture. ”

"Report!" At this time, the voice of the commander of the guard company sounded again.

Commander Chen shouted, "Come in!" ”

The commander of the guard company walked in with someone and said, "Report to Commander Chen, someone has brought!" ”

Commander Chen nodded and said, "You go down first!" ”

"Yes!" The commander of the guard company answered and retreated. Commander Chen looked at the three people on the high-speed rail and asked, "Who are you?!" ”

High-speed rail saluted Commander Chen and said: "Report to the chief, I am the commander of the independent regiment police company!" On the orders of the regiment commander and commissar, to find the superiors. ”

Commander Chen and Hu Fu glanced at each other, and Commander Chen asked, "How did you find here?!" ”

The high-speed rail replied: "Don't hide it from the chief, we have found everything we can find." This is our last target, and if we can't find it here, we're going to go back and find another way. ”

As soon as the words of the high-speed rail fell, Miao Xiaohai's stomach sounded. Miao Xiaohai saw that everyone present looked at him, lowered his head a little embarrassed, and said, "We haven't eaten for two days." ”

"What?! Haven't eaten in two days?! Commander Chen asked with a trembling voice.

Miao Xiaohai didn't know where he got the courage, so he nodded and said, "Yes!" On the way, we met people who had fled, and some of them were sick, so we gave them all the money we had with us. ”

Commander Chen immediately said to the guards on the side: "Go to the cooking class and get them some food!" ”

"Yes!" The guard replied and walked quickly out of the headquarters.

"Come, come, come! Sit down! Commander Chen beckoned the three of them to sit down and asked, "Can you give us a brief introduction to the situation of your independent regiment?" ”

"Yes!" The high-speed rail responded and gave a detailed introduction to the situation of the independence group. When Commander Chen and Hu Fu learned about the establishment of the Independent League from the high-speed railway, they were dumbfounded and began to waver in their intention to split the Independent League.

Commander Chen and the three of them chatted for more than ten minutes, and the guard walked in from outside and said, "Commander-in-chief, the meal has been prepared, do you want them to go over to eat?!" ”

Commander Chen nodded and said, "You can take them over!" ”

"Yes!" The guard answered and left with the three of them. After they left, Commander Chen looked at Hu Fu and asked, "What do you think?!" ”

Hu Fu said: "I think it's better to wait for them to come." Then he changed the conversation and said, "But to be honest, I tend to remain the same now, and I am still directly under the Independent Delegation. ”
