"Hey, dig a foot deeper into this pit! The little devils are not tall, and if they dig a foot deeper, they will not be able to climb out if they fall into the pit! ”

"Okay! Let's listen to Chief Hu, and dig a foot deeper! The big man, who was half a head taller than Hu Fei, smiled honestly and responded loudly to Hu Fei's words.

"Be careful, be careful. This land mine is not safe, and the brothers should be careful when placing it. Our mines are for bombers, not for ourselves! ”

"Hahahaha-"

In terms of communicating with soldiers, Hu Fei's rich cultural foundation played a role. His humorous and witty speaking style often made him quickly resonate with the fighters. The soldiers of the supplementary company, who were still a little complaining, were quickly motivated under Hu Fei's encouragement!

The master is in the people, and there is a saying that the people's creativity is infinite. Hu Fei just asked the soldiers to dig traps, and he didn't want to set up any more ambushes in the traps. Unexpectedly, some fighters actually set up traps in the trap on their own.

When Hu Fei was inspecting the construction site, he found that some soldiers had buried bamboo sticks in the traps they had dug.

"Whose idea was this?" Hu Fei pointed to the bamboo sticks under the trap and asked the soldiers next to him.

"It's me, sir! That's how I used to set traps when I was hunting in the mountains. Don't look at it, it's just a few more bamboo skewers, and once I caught a 200-pound wild boar! The young warrior on the edge of the trap said this with pride! In those years, a 200-pound wild boar was a lot of wealth!

"Well done!" For capable fighters, Hu Fei never hesitates to praise them. "Looks like you used to be a good hunter in the mountains, right? We are peers. How long does it take you to sharpen one of these bamboo skewers? ”

"It's simple. In fact, you don't have to use bamboo sticks, you can do the same with sticks and branches. I just have these bamboo skewers handy, and if I don't have them, I can use them with dry branches of the right thickness. As for me sharpening bamboo skewers, I can cut about 20 bamboo skewers in 10 minutes, right? ”

"Okay, I'll give you ten brothers, and you can take them to stick bamboo skewers and wooden skewers in each trap! I don't limit your time, but the devil can come at any time. You wait for the signal to let you withdraw, you have to put down your work and withdraw immediately! ”

"Okay!" The warrior who had been a hunter readily agreed. Hu Fei asked Li San to pick out ten soldiers who had been hunters from the supplementary company, and follow the young hunters who could sharpen bamboo sticks to add material to the trap.

In the mountainous areas, many of the poor people have the experience of going to the mountains to hunt or collect mountain goods and medicinal materials. The soldiers in the supplementary company are basically all natives of Shanxi, and among them, there is a group of people who have been professional hunters. In almost a few minutes, the company commander Li San had found all ten hunters.

The next thing is for these people to install bamboo sticks or wooden pegs in the traps. By the time the Scout informed the devil that he was about to arrive, the hunter's job was nearing its end. As soon as Li San gave the order, the soldiers gathered their tools, covered up the traps, and quickly left the road.

There was a naturally formed soil ditch 100 meters away from the road, and Hu Fei lay in the soil ditch and looked at the road with a telescope.

Far away, in the dust, the sweeping troops of the devils came! In front was a large group of traitors on bicycles, behind were hundreds of puppet troops, and then there were devil troops carrying plaster flags.

Although the scope of this law and order operation that affected the entire territory of Shanxi was quite large, in fact, there were not many devils dispatched. The old devil Umezu Mijiro mobilized a large number of puppet troops and traitor troops to participate in the sweep. Even if there are devils in battle, it is not an elite permanent armor division. The 109th Division is an ad hoc division.

The wing commander of the 69th Infantry Wing, Isamu Sasaki, sat on the back of a big black horse and watched his troops march forward, this guy shook his head and was so unhappy! Before he came to China, he was just an ordinary technician in a foundry in Kanazawa, but now he has become an infantry man with real power! The circumstances of life can really be described as earth-shaking.

Sasaki Osa was a direct beneficiary of this war, and at the same time he was also a fanatical warmonger. Without the Sino-Japanese War, he would not be where he is today!

"Dazuo, the soldiers are tired, please give the order to rest." The lieutenant officer who was riding a chestnut horse next to him mentioned Jian yì to Da Zuo, or rather, it was not Jian yì but just a sue for him. As soon as he said this, before Dazuo could agree, the lieutenant had already turned over and dismounted and began to find a place to rest.

"Ogasawara-kun, can you please wait and rest?" Isamu Sasaki didn't want to rest, but Lieutenant Ogasawara didn't hear him, and they had already found a flat place to spread the blankets.

Sasaki didn't get angry as he imagined, he just shook his head helplessly when he looked at Ogasawara's direction, and then ordered: "Rest in place!" ”

This is the case with ad hoc divisions. Before joining the army, the officers and men of the division and regiment were basically married, had children, and had a fixed occupation. As Japan continued to expand the scale of the war, the reservist soldiers, who had long since been retired, were re-armed and sent to the front line in China.

Sasaki also learned from the Kanazawa Barracks that one of his staff officers at the wing headquarters turned out to be the technical section chief in the metal foundry, who was his immediate boss! During the years when he worked as a technician in a metal foundry, Isamu Sasaki was not less angry with this Ogasawara section chief!

I thought that now that he has finally become the boss of the section chief, he can finally take revenge, right? I didn't expect Lieutenant Ogasawara to publicize the fact that he used to be the boss of the wing commander, no, all the officers of the entire brigade and regiment knew about it! And he also said when he met people, saying how he took care of Sasaki Osa in the factory, and how close the relationship between the two was. It's like he's Isamu Sasaki's father!

After this, Isamu Sasaki can no longer deal with him, the technical section chief! Not only can he not deal with it, but he also has to take care of Lieutenant Ogasawara at all times. There are often some boring people, including the brigade commander Kodama and General Ichi, who will come to him and ask him if he has nothing to do: Section Commander Ogasawara is living well in the wing, right? You take good care of him, don't you? Every time, it makes Sasaki Osa depressed.

Just like today, Sasaki was in a very good mood, but who knew that this Ogasawara just didn't cooperate! In front of so many people, you will die if you save some face for me?

In the 109th Division, it was common for superiors to listen to their subordinates, or even fear them. It's not just wing commander Isamu Sasaki, but also several infantry brigades have this kind of problem, which has become a common problem in ad hoc divisions!

Wing Captain Sasaki's rest order, the second lieutenant of the spearhead squad immediately sent someone to inform the puppet army police force and the bicycle team in front of him, and then ordered his squad to rest in place.
