After more than 20 days of frantic military training, the bandits in the surrounding counties and cities were almost swept away, but the armed forces of other counties did not dare to make the slightest movement, although the bandits in those places may have something to do with them, but in the face of the powerful independent brigade, they could only break their front teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.

Zhang Cheng was in the headquarters of Chaohu City, a huge military map was hung on the wall, a marked march route was printed on it, and there was a huge sand table on the table, which Zhang Cheng had set up according to intelligence these days.

As the deputy brigade commander of the independent brigade, Liu Zhongming stood beside Zhang Cheng, and next to him was the chief of staff Gao Zhisong, Li Qinwen, the wartime service regiment commander, was promoted by Zhang Cheng, and now the wartime service regiment has reached more than 6,000 people.

There are now 18,000 people under Zhang Cheng plus the wartime service regiment, of which 10,000 are equipped with Japanese-style weapons, and the wartime service regiment is equipped with Hanyang-made, and there are special combat teams of 300 people, equipped with grenades and daggers and AK-47s, and at the same time, Da Niu's machine gun battalion has also been expanded into an armored mechanical regiment, which is the main force of the independent brigade, and now Zhang Cheng is the only one who can handle it and has a strong force to tear apart the Japanese defense.

All the officers looked at the sand table quietly, Zhang Cheng's plan was simply terrifying. "This combat mission is a counterattack operation launched by our department itself, in order to make the reputation of our independent brigade, and at the same time to rescue the rout and prisoners of the Japanese army in this part of the occupied area, and at the same time plunder all the Japanese combat resources." Zhang Cheng commanded the baton south of the Yangtze River, between Nanjing and Shanghai and Hangzhou, and now most of the Japanese troops here are in the north of the Yangtze River, except for Nanjing and Shanghai, the Japanese garrison is less than two companies, each city is scattered, and the strength of a county town is less than 1,000 people, which provides conditions for him to break through.

Although we did not receive an order to participate in the Battle of Xuzhou, in this case, Zhang Cheng must reduce the pressure on other troops as soon as possible, and only in this way can we stabilize the situation in the north, and at the same time, Zhang Cheng discovered one of the most important military strongholds of the devils in central China, that is, the Suzhou area in the south of Xuzhou, where the devil's strategic weapons are deployed, and where more than 300 planes of the devils are located.

Zhang Cheng now wants to do his best to eliminate the devil's air force, so that the devil's advantage will be greatly weakened.

And his goal is to attack the east and west, the combat plan of the troops is to attack the rear of the devils in southern Jiangsu, so as to disrupt the deployment of the Japanese army, force the Japanese troops to return to help, and at the same time plunder the Japanese reserves in this area, and then evacuate the local people, so that the devils suffer heavy losses in this area, but before the devil's troops come back, they must evacuate, after all, even now they do not have the strength to fight a face-to-face war with the devil's division and the army, after all, their training time is still too short, It's still okay to rely on the superiority of troops to attack the small Japanese troops, but once you really fight with the big devil troops, even if you resist it, you will suffer heavy casualties.

"Brigade, we are acting without permission, will we be punished by the superiors?" Gao Zhisong was a little worried, he was not Zhang Cheng's kind of cross-cutting acquaintance, and he still had some awe of Lao Jiang.

But Zhang Cheng smiled lightly: "Chief of Staff Gao, you remember, now is the period of the Anti-Japanese War to defend against foreign enemies, as long as we don't commit treason, we can do things according to our own ideas, the deployment of the military department and the president is problematic, you look at the battle between Shanghai and Nanjing, it is completely meaningless, at the very beginning, it should be placed on the line of defense from Nantong to Hangzhou, and it is much more advantageous to resist the Japanese army with a strong line of defense than to fight with the devil under the guns of the Japanese ships in Shanghai, but you see, In order to show the devil's aggression to the Nine-Nation Pact, the chairman of the committee put his troops under the enemy's bullets, and although the Nine-Power Pact was aware of it, the condemnation of Japan issued by them was of any use. ”

Zhang Cheng has no hope at all for the so-called League of Nations, if he wants to be respected by others, he needs to be strong in his own strength, and his own strength is the most important in the factional struggle at home or in the contest between countries abroad.

The body shook slightly, and nodded seriously, although Gao Zhisong was born in the 88th Division, the difference between the treatment of the Sichuan Army and their independent brigade can be seen, the equipment of the independent brigade can be said to be captured by Zhang Cheng and them, in fact, it has not been recognized by the state, but here both the central army and the local warlords are very respectful to the independent brigade, not because of the outstanding combat exploits of the independent brigade, but because they were frightened by the strong strength of the independent brigade.

On the contrary, the Sichuan army is different, at this time there is a steady stream of Sichuan troops to the national anti-Japanese battlefield, millions of Sichuan troops from Sichuan like a goddess scattered flowers to the Central Plains to support, such an army for the country and the nation dare to risk their lives soldiers are worthy of respect, but whether it is the central army or the local warlords, even those who also belong to the remnants of the Northeast Army, look down on them.

It's nothing more than that they are extremely poorly equipped, and they don't even have winter clothes, so they are not valued by other troops at all.

But throughout the Anti-Japanese War, the traitor troops were as high as millions, but few troops from Sichuan surrendered to the Japanese, from this point we can see the ambition of the Sichuan army, and the determination of the Anti-Japanese War, the Sichuan army is also a force that Zhang Cheng admires very much in the War of Resistance against Japan.

Therefore, Gao Zhisong is easy to understand Zhang Cheng's words, if they have been following the deployment of the military department, they will easily be used as cannon fodder by Lao Jiang, just like the current Sichuan army.

The family is fighting together for the freedom of the nation, and as a result, you are still lud and want to eradicate dissidents, no matter who you are, you will be very angry, so now Zhang Cheng simply promoted his troops to the division level, and then forced Lao Jiang to upgrade the level of their troops with his military exploits.

"This is Lishui, with a force of almost 600 people, this is the goal of our first attack, and at the same time lure out the devils in Ma'anshan and Wuhu, and drive the devils to find an opportunity to destroy. This battle we except for a wartime service regiment left to guard, all the other troops attacked, this is not only a battle but also a training, we need to avoid the Japanese army from the border area deep behind the enemy, and finally return after achieving the strategic goal, I hope you will do a good job of secrecy after you go back, and at the same time mobilize the combat enthusiasm of the soldiers, this time we can not make mistakes. Zhang Cheng then set his first goal, that is, Lishui County, which had been occupied by the Japanese army, which was not a strategic point, and at the same time far away from the main force of the Japanese army, from here to attack the past, it was possible to avoid the main force of the Japanese army and directly attack the strategic point of the Japanese army.

Everyone responded one after another, and then began to mobilize their own troops, and Zhang Cheng had already led the special combat team to carry out the operation.

The special combat team is Zhang Cheng's carefully built combat unit, each of whom is selected from many soldiers, and everyone in the special combat team at this time has an AK-47 submachine gun hanging on their chests, and more than a dozen people are carrying the same sniper rifles as Zhang Cheng behind their backs.

"Listen to the young men, from now on the special combat team will enter a state of war, this time you will follow me to act, keep in mind every battle I have ever had, in the future you will be sent to various units as the commander of the special operations force, I hope that I will be able to meet the elite fighters one by one, so that the devils will start to tremble when they hear the name of our special combat team." All the special combat personnel showed excited expressions one by one, they were all trained according to Zhang Cheng's special operations tutorial, but they had never carried out tasks such as raids behind enemy lines and decapitation operations, and they were thrown on the battlefield as fire support companies to use as support firepower, after all, they were equipped with submachine guns one by one, and the drums of fifty rounds gave them very powerful sustained firepower.

But each of them knows that the role of their special combat team is not to support the troops in combat, but to eliminate the important combat targets of the devils, and each of them has relatively special equipment, such as flashbangs, a Mitsubishi thorn, a dagger, five grenades, plus submachine guns and a dozen sniper rifles, their combat effectiveness is very terrifying.

But when they really followed Zhang Cheng's actions in the jungle, they suddenly found that they couldn't keep up with Zhang Cheng's footsteps with their proud skills.

In the dense forest, running fast, the footsteps barely made a sound on the dry grass, a special combat team of three hundred people is imitating Zhang Cheng's posture and moving quickly, this is the first time Zhang Cheng really leads them to action, in fact, for them this is training them, and at the beginning of the mission, they only need to watch Zhang Cheng act, Zhang Cheng's request to them is to try to remember his combat steps.

About thirty miles away from Lishui, there is a stronghold of the devils here, and occupying this township is enough to control the surrounding area of thirty or forty miles, so the devils have deployed a team here, about a hundred people.

And the commander of this group of devils is obviously not an ordinary person, and the scouts are all placed ten miles away, this is because Zhang Cheng's previous brutal killing has made the devils like frightened birds, lest they be completely annihilated by the enemy who came out of nowhere.

The two devil soldiers patrolled the road outside the forest, and they didn't see a pair of cold eyes in the mountain forest.

Zhang Cheng raised his hand and told everyone not to act rashly, then took out his dagger and slowly touched the two devils.

Zhang Cheng wears khaki camouflage, which is the most advantageous way to camouflage in the bleak winter scenery.

And Zhang Cheng chose the visual blind spot of the two devils, so when he came behind the devil, the two devils didn't notice it, everyone held their breath and strictly remembered Zhang Cheng's every move.

At this time, Zhang Cheng suddenly waved the dagger in his hand, rushed up and covered the mouth of a devil in the blink of an eye, and pulled it violently when the other devil didn't react, and then the dagger in his hand slashed directly at the devil's neck.

Zhang Cheng quickly put down the corpse, and when the corpse had not fallen to the ground, he had already stabbed into the back of another devil, and the palm of his hand was directly slashed at the back of the little devil's head, and the action was done in one go without the slightest drag.

A large group of soldiers rushed out one after another, standing behind Zhang Cheng and waiting for Zhang Cheng to explain to them.

Zhang Cheng stood in front of everyone and said to everyone: "The combat method of the special combat team is different from that of the regular army, our actions are like the battle just now, we must be secretive, so that the enemy cannot find out, but the opponent will be killed with one blow, and at the same time, when there is no accident, the battle of the special combat team is best in the evening to the early morning at this stage, the attack must be fast, and the enemy to be hit is caught off guard." ”

Zhang Cheng pointed to the corpse of the devil on the ground, when the special operations unit fights, it is a fast word, as long as you can master the fast, and then kill the enemy without giving the enemy time to react, then your task will be completed.

Everyone nodded, they were all the smarter soldiers in the army, and their brains were quick and clear.

Zhang Cheng waved his hand, and several soldiers quickly threw the corpses of the two devils into the woods, and then they continued to follow Zhang Cheng forward.

Beyond the woods, there was a panicked sound from a small village, and from time to time there were some shouts.

Zhang Cheng frowned, he nodded at the soldiers behind him, more than three hundred elite special combat members quickly dispersed, and Zhang Cheng also came to a high ground with fifteen snipers.

There was chaos in the small village, and a dozen or so devils gathered sixty or seventy people in the village at gunpoint in the open space of the village.

"Uncle, what are you going to do with the little devil?" A young man in the village looked at these devils and asked the old man who was the village chief beside him, in the face of the devils' rifles and bayonets, their hearts were very hesitant, the devils came to plague the village twice in three days, and now only they are left in the village.

The commander of the little devil waved the command knife in his hand, and suddenly some devils rushed into the crowd, regardless of the cries of the people, and pulled out some young and strong men, a standard traitor with a paper fan said something beside the devil commander with a flattering face, and then turned his head to the people and said loudly: "Taijun wants to build a fortress in the town, you people have been requisitioned, hurry up and pack up the guys and go with us." ”

"What else to fix? We have been taken away by more than a dozen people before, and they have not come back yet, and you still have to take people away, so what about the remaining old and weak women and children in our village? The old village chief said angrily to the traitors, and the young people were all taken away, and they all counted on the young people to go into the woods to hunt.

The little devils came to China to carry out frenzied plunder, and the people did not have much food in their hands, and most of them were looted by the devils, and most of them could only rely on the prey in the forest and the bark of the trees, and then take the remaining young people away, then they would starve to death because of the old women, women and children.

And they have all heard that the devil is building a bunker on the edge of the town, and it doesn't matter if you are tired or not, you are often used to death, and many men can't stand the endless labor and are tired to death, and now they feel fear as long as they hear about the construction of the bunker.

"Yaga!" The commander of the little devil obviously understood the old man's words, and immediately showed a fierce look, in the eyes of the devil, they were the victors, and these dead slaves had no bargaining qualifications at all, so they immediately raised the command knife in their hands and slashed at the old man.

"Bastard!" The young people became restless one by one, these little devils are too inhumane, and such old people will not let go.

But as soon as they wanted to make a move, they were quickly pushed against by the devil soldiers with rifles and bayonets, and as soon as they moved, they would be immediately attacked.

Everyone looked at the old village chief sadly, and now no one could save him.

However, just when everyone was desperate, suddenly the devil who wielded the knife suddenly trembled, and a stream of blood suddenly rushed out of his forehead, and he fell to the ground with a bang.

"Yaga! Enemy attack! The other little devils were startled by the sudden attack, and then became angry.

But before they could pick up their rifles, a slight gunshot rang out, and eleven little devils were instantly hit by bullets under the dizzying eyes of the common people.

"Let's go!" Zhang Cheng stood up, there were only eleven devils, and they had fifteen snipers alone, it can be said that each devil was targeted by snipers, plus these devils were all standing still, so naturally there was no possibility of escaping.

Call! A large group of soldiers appeared at the entrance of the village, and the people of the village looked at them one by one in shock, these people were wearing tight military uniforms in khaki yellow, wearing military hats intertwined with khaki and white on their heads, and their feet were all full of military boots.

"Pack up the body, let's go to town." Zhang Cheng gave an order to the soldiers behind him, the devils here are only a very small part of the devils here, and the devils in the township are the main enemies.

One by one, the soldiers picked up the weapons on the ground, and then quickly moved the corpses out, without the slightest intention of talking to the people.

The old village chief looked at the busy soldiers in a daze, these people didn't seem to see them, and they didn't do any restrictions on them at all, but at such a time, the old village chief naturally had to say a few words in front of Zhang Cheng, because they really didn't know who these people were in front of them.

"Sir, what are you?" The old village chief came to Zhang Cheng's side and asked aloud.

Zhang Cheng glanced at the old village chief and said loudly: "We are an independent brigade, and we are now on a mission, fellow villagers can prepare, our large army will arrive in two days, if you are ready to leave here, it is best to prepare something." ”

Zhang Cheng didn't know how many people would leave in the end, but this was not something he could force to do, after all, it was difficult to leave his homeland, but staying here would obviously face the brutal rule of the devil.

The old village chief nodded, knowing that Zhang Cheng was not going to say much to him, so he immediately returned to the villagers and told Zhang Cheng's answer.

The common people did not speak, but watched the army leave quickly, but the speed of this army was too fast, and they cleaned up the corpse of the devil, and then immediately continued to march, heading in the direction of the town.

The Liu family is the north gate of Lishui, and occupying the Liu family in Lishui is equivalent to blocking the devil's traffic to Nanjing, so as to attack the main force of the devil's county.

This town originally had a population of one or two thousand, but due to the arrival of the devils, many of the refugees left, and now only a few hundred people remain, struggling under the brutal rule of the devils.

Zhang Cheng led his troops to the edge of the town, but now the devils have learned smart, in order to prevent the attack of the anti-Japanese armed forces, they said that all the woods around the town stronghold have been cut down, so that Zhang Cheng and they can't sneak up at all.

Zhang Cheng waved his hand to all the soldiers, divided the troops into eight squads, Zhang Cheng led a team of people to attack in the front, as long as the other parts of the devil's troops were mobilized, then all the squads would quickly encircle the town, this is the classic eight-sided ambush, in fact, it is a part of the feint, and the other troops launched a strong assault on the enemy with extreme speed, and Germany used this set rotten at the beginning of the European theater.

It's just that the German troops use tanks, while Zhang Cheng uses a special combat team, and the special combat team can exert a powerful attack power in such a battle, and their continuous firepower can tear apart any unprepared enemy.

To the north of Liu's house, a soldier of the devil is directing the numb people to dig trenches and build fortresses, and the whips are constantly whipping the people in the hands of the devils, as long as anyone dares to look at each other angrily, they will be pulled out by the devil soldiers and shot directly, and some will even be stabbed to death with bayonets alive, the devils take this way as their own entertainment, and they enjoy this feeling of disposing of other people's lives at will.

Today Jiro Yamada was very happy, and after drinking two pounds of sake, he wanted to find trouble with these Chinese, but now the Chinese have also learned to be obedient, knowing that if they resist, they will be killed, so they all bear the whipping and insults of the devil with their heads shut.

Wang Laosan gritted his teeth and endured the hot pain in his back, he wanted to bite this devil to death, his younger brother was stabbed to death by the devil two days ago, he now regrets it very much, why didn't he flee with the fleeing villagers in the first place, even if he begged in the south to make a living, it was much better than here.

However, he soon found that he might not be able to escape his fate today, and the little devil whipped him on his body in one fell swoop, as if he wanted to whip him to death.

"Little devil, you." Feeling the devil's malice, Wang Laosan roared angrily, and turned around and wanted to fight to the death with this devil.

Yamada Jiro had long expected this Chinese to behave like this, and immediately laughed loudly Two prepared ghost soldiers pounced on him, holding the sturdy Wang Laosan to death, while that Yamada Jiro took a rifle, loaded a bayonet and rushed towards Wei Laosan with a fierce momentum, Wang Laosan thought that he was going to die this time, but just when Wang Laosan was desperate, suddenly an unexpected scene happened in front of him.
