"Your Excellency! Are you alright?! Kanzaburo Okazaki immediately helped Ken Sato, who was crumbling. Ken Sato closed his eyes and calmed down, pushed away Kanzaburo Okazaki, and said, "Tomorrow morning, the army will be sent to Gao Miao Village!" I want them to know what will happen to them if they offend our Imperial Japanese Army! ”

"Hey!" Okazaki Kanzaburo answered, and just wanted to persuade a few words, the telegraph soldier ran to Sato Ken with a telegram and saluted: "Your Excellency, the brigade commander is urgent!" ”

Ken Sato grabbed the telegram handed over by the telegraph soldier and looked at it by the light of the fire. After seven or eight minutes, Ken Sato finished reading the telegram and couldn't help but curse angrily: "Damn the New Fourth Army! ”

Kanzaburo Okazaki asked, "Your Excellency Osa, what's wrong?" ”

Ken Sato said coldly: "Our rear has been attacked and harassed by the New Fourth Army. The division commander continued to reinforce. Maj. Gen. Inoue wants us to complete the sweep in five days. ”

Kanzaburo Okazaki frowned and said, "Your Excellency, isn't five days too rushed?" ”

Sato Ken sneered: "This time my target is Gaomiao Village, a small village, it won't take five days!" ”

Although he had just been attacked by Hong Yu and them, Ken Sato still didn't take them seriously. But Ken Sato didn't expect that Takamiao Village would become a place he would never forget, and it was also the place he feared the most.

Just when the little devil was busy cleaning up the mess, Hong Yu and the others converged. Hong Yu jumped out of the car, walked to Tang Xingye's side, and asked, "How are the casualties?" ”

Tang Xingye replied: "Miao Feng and Gao Yan's arms were grazed by the devil's bullet. There were no other casualties. ”

Hong Yu nodded slightly and looked at Gao Ming. Gao Ming said: "Head, we didn't die in battle, but a few people were burned by the barrels. ”

"It's good that there are no dead in battle!" Saying that, Hong Yu glanced at the moonlight in the sky and said, "It's not early, let's retreat!" ”

Tang Xingye asked, "Brother Yu, where do we retreat?" ”

Hong Yu replied, "Go back to the village!" ”

"Back to the village?!" The people present looked at Hong Yu with puzzled faces.

Hong Yu said: "The little devils were so troubled by us tonight, what will happen to them tomorrow?!" ”

Tang Xingshang said: "If I were a little devil, I would definitely not attack Gaomiao Village at any cost tomorrow." ”

"Yes!" Hong Yu nodded and said, "So we have to rush back to the village overnight." After a slight pause, Hong Yu continued: "Although the people in the village are all armed by us. But after all, they have too much time to train, and the number of devils far exceeds us. We can only fight the little devils if we redeploy. ”

Tang Xingye said: "Brother Yu, even if we return to the village, it will be too late to redeploy!" It's better to follow the original plan and use the terrain along the way to block the little devils layer by layer. ”

Hong Yu said: "We all know how many roads there are in the village here. Do you think that in such a short distance, the little devil will still be disturbed?! Seeing that everyone present bowed their heads and remained silent, Hong Yu continued: "Okay! Don't think about it so much. Be clever and have your men put the cannon in the car. Let's go back to the village immediately! ”

"Yes!" Gao Ming responded and beckoned the people around him to put the mortar on the car.

Two hours later, Gao Miao Village.

"Report!"

"Come in!"

Miao Mengda pushed open the door of the temporary headquarters, walked in, and said, "Mr. Gu, the village report that there is a convoy heading towards our village!" ”

"What?!" Gu Zhenghai was taken aback, and said secretly: "Who will come at this time?!" After hesitating for a while, Gu Zhenghai picked up the telescope placed on the side and said, "Go!" Let's check it out! With that, Gu Zhenghai took the lead and walked outside the headquarters.

Walk all the way. It turned out that it took a quarter of an hour to go, and Gu Zhenghai only took five or six minutes to arrive at the entrance of the village. As soon as he raised the binoculars, Hong Yu's figure quickly entered Gu Zhenghai's line of sight. Seeing Hong Yu sitting in the car, Gu Zhenghai breathed a sigh of relief, put down the binoculars and said, "It's my own family!" Lift the alert! ”

"Yes!" Miao Mengda responded and sent a safety signal to the cliff caves on the left and right.

After seven or eight minutes, Hong Yu drove the car to Gu Zhenghai and stopped. Gu Zhenghai walked to the side of the car and asked, "Hong Yu, how is the situation?" ”

Hong Yu replied: "Tonight's harvest is not small. The baggage and artillery squadrons of a brigade of devils were all boiled by us. It is estimated that tomorrow the little devils will attack us like crazy. ”

Gu Zhenghai said: "Let's go in first!" I'll talk about that later! ”

"Good!" Hong Yu answered, released the brakes, and drove the car up.

When Hong Yu and the others drove the car to the threshing floor, Yuan Hui walked out with people. After Hong Yu got out of the car with someone, Yuan Hui stepped forward and asked, "Is everything going well?!" ”

"Everything went smoothly. But ......" said Hong Yu hesitated.

Yuan Hui asked, "But what?" ”

Hong Yu took a deep breath and said, "I'm afraid there will be a vicious battle starting tomorrow." ”

Yuan Hui said: "I haven't seen any battles with you until now. As long as there is a place for you, I am not afraid of no matter how difficult it is! ”

Hong Yu smiled and reached out to gently pinch Yuan Hui's face, then turned his head to look at the truck. At this time, Gu Zhenghai came over, beckoned the people standing on the side to help unload the car, and then walked to Hong Yu's side, took out a telegram from his pocket and handed it to Hong Yu, saying: "This is the telegram received at dusk, take a look!" ”

Hong Yu took the telegram, took advantage of the moonlight, quickly read the content of the telegram, and said with a wry smile: "Now we want to save it, but we have more than enough strength but not enough!" Tomorrow we have a tough battle ahead. If this battle doesn't work, we'll all die here. Saying that, Hong Yu put away the telegram and looked at Gu Zhenghai.

Gu Zhenghai frowned and asked softly, "Hong Yu, they have just received training, can they withstand the attack of the devil?" ”

Hong Yu replied: "War is cruel! Whether they can stand it; Still can't stand it. They're all going to go through it. I believe that they will be able to carry this hurdle. ”

Half an hour later, Tang Xingye walked into the temporary headquarters and said, "Brother Yu, we have made a fortune this time!" ”

"What's wrong?!" Hong Yu put down the two-color pencil in his hand and looked at Tang Xingye. Tang Xingye handed the statistical report in his hand to Hong Yu. Hong Yu took the statistical report, briefly glanced at the contents, and said: "As long as we can survive tomorrow, basically this difficulty can be overcome." ”

Tang Xingye said suspiciously: "Brother Yu, although we robbed the devil's supplies. Won't they be resupplyed?! ”

Hong Yu said: "Now the little devil is a heart and mind to win Changsha. So all the troops and supplies were concentrated in that direction. In normal times, they might be able to restock. But now it is unlikely. ”

Tang Xingye continued: "Brother Yu, even if we survive this time. When the Battle of Changsha is over, the little devil will definitely settle accounts after the autumn. ”

Hong Yu interrupted: "Even if the little devil wants to settle accounts after the autumn, he must have this tooth." Saying that, Hong Yu put the statistical report aside, pointed to the map and said, "Come and see!" ”

Tang Xingye walked to Hong Yu's side, looked at the map and said, "Can this battle be fought like this?!" In case you provoke the little devils, gather the people in the surrounding villages and let them go to the mines. What are we going to do?! ”

Hong Yu said: "I have already thought of this. Didn't you notice that there were fewer people in the village?! ”

Tang Xingye was stunned, remembering the scene on the threshing floor not long ago, Hong Yu pulled Gao Ming aside and exchanged his ears, and said, "Brother Yu, you won't let Gao Ming take people to the surrounding villages to evacuate people, right?!" ”

Hong Yu nodded and said, "Everyone knows that little devils don't have sex|sex|." But those who have not gone through the defense of Nanjing, their understanding of the little devil is only on the surface. At this time, Hong Yu's eyes seemed to be playing a slideshow, and photos of the Nanjing Massacre flashed in front of his eyes.

Tang Xingye saw Hong Yu standing in a daze, and immediately reacted, sighed lightly, and said secretly: "The Nanjing Massacre has become a knot in Brother Yu's heart. I don't know when he will be able to get out of this knot. ”

"Brother Yu!" At this moment, Tang Xingshang pushed the door and walked in. Hong Yu came back to his senses and asked, "What's the matter?!" ”

Tang Xingshang said: "We have laid out all the mines. In addition, according to your requirements, the cliff caves on the left and right sides have been strengthened to ensure that the little devil will not come back this time. ”

Hong Yu smiled and said, "I'll check it later." If you don't meet my requirements, see how I clean you up! ”

In the midst of busyness, time flies. In the blink of an eye, it was about two o'clock in the morning. Yuan Hui walked to Hong Yu's side with the freshly brewed coffee. Hong Yu, who was snorting, took the coffee, took a sip, and asked, "Is the old cat back?" ”

Yuan Hui replied, "Not yet!" ”

Hong Yu sighed and said, "There is not much time left until dawn now. ”

Yuan Hui asked: "Brother Yu, what if the little devil really uses the common people to go to the mines?!" ”

Hong Yu was slightly stunned for a moment while holding the cup, put down the cup, and spit out two words: "Fight to the death!" ”

"Fight to the death?!" Yuan Hui frowned slightly, hugged Hong Yu's arm and snuggled into Hong Yu's arms, quietly listening to Hong Yu's heartbeat, as if returning to the carefree state when he was studying. ……

Time flowed like water, and in the blink of an eye, it was seven o'clock in the morning. Hong Woo walked out of the temporary headquarters. At this time, Gao Ming walked over with Qian Duoduo and Lin Xiaoshan. Hong Yu asked, "How's the situation?!" ”

Gao Ming replied: "Head, except for some old people who are reluctant to go. Everything else that could be evacuated has already been evacuated. Saying that, Gao Ming asked: "Head, will the devil really let the people go to landmines?" ”

Hong Yu nodded and said, "I can't say for others." But the devils will definitely let the common people go to the mines. ”

"Damn little devil!" Gao Ming scolded angrily, and then said: "When we came back, we passed by the devil's camp and found that they had all gotten up. According to the old style of the little devils, it is estimated that they have set off now. ”
