Liu Tianshu and Company Commander Song rushed to Hujiawan, but they didn't expect Nie Dadong and those regiment commanders to wait at the entrance of the village. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, the sky has just dawned, and the mountains and forests outside the village are all shrouded in morning mist, and everything looks hazy and beautiful.

"Captain Liu, you're finally back." Seeing Liu Tianshu and others coming, Nie Dadong and the others hurriedly greeted them. Liu Tianshu shook hands with Nie Dadong and Ye Xiaowei, and said, "Captain, instructor, why don't you go into the village to rest?" ”

"Hehe, you've worked hard all night, let's wait here for a while, that's how it should be, comrades are all back." Nie Dadong said with a smile.

Last night's battle, if you want to say that it was hard, it was naturally Platoon Commander Zhao and Su Xiaopeng. The two of them took four squads of soldiers, pretending to be the main force of the detachment, and rushed to the northeast, and after completing the task of attracting the enemy's attention, they quickly returned, during which they did not get any rest at all, and when they arrived at Hujiawan, many soldiers were already exhausted.

No, under the leadership of Xu Qiangong's guerrillas, Platoon Commander Zhao and Su Xiaopeng immediately went into the village to rest. As for the guard outside the village, the soldiers who rushed to Hujiawan in advance were in charge.

After Liu Tianshu said a few words to Nie Dadong, he followed into the village.

Half an hour later, Shi Qiang and the soldiers of the guard platoon also rushed to Hujiawan, but after these soldiers rested for a while, they immediately scattered around.

When the team crosses the railway, the devil will definitely be annoyed, and at this time he will definitely search around like a mad dog. According to common sense, the team should go as far west as possible, but Liu Tianshu knew that even if the team could go again, it would not be possible to go a hundred miles away in three or four hours.

As long as the devils are fortified in front of them, their whereabouts will soon be discovered by the devils.

So, in his opinion, the most important thing at the moment is to hide his whereabouts so that Kato Moriki can't find himself.

Hujiawan is only five miles away from the Pinghan Railway, but it is separated by a small mountain, and Hujiawan is on the other side of the mountain. At the same time, the west side of Hujiawan is a gentle hill, and through this hilly area that is more than 60 miles wide, you can be at the foot of Taihang Mountain.

However, twenty-five miles to the west of Hujiawan is Mafang Town, which is a large town, where the devils have stationed hundreds of people, plus the Imperial Army, the strength of more than 1,000 people.

Of course, the devils stationed heavy troops in Mafang Town, and their purpose was mainly to prevent the Eighth Route Army from Taihang Mountain from coming out.

It can be said that the power of the enemy in this area is not inferior to that of the county seat of the People's Republic of China.

When the troops entered Hujiawan, they naturally blocked the entire village, anyway, this village is not big, and it is in the mountains and forests, even if the villagers here do not go out for a day, no one will pay attention.

As long as this day is spent safely, at night, the team will take advantage of the darkness to pass through the devil's defense area and forcibly march to Taihang Mountain.

After seeing that all the security work was done, Liu Tianshu also went to sleep with confidence, and when he woke up, it was already noon.

Nie Dadong saw Liu Tianshu coming out of the house, and asked with concern, "Why don't you sleep for a while?" It's still early before dark. ”

"Hehe, captain, don't talk about this sleep, sleep really comfortably, by the way, what's the situation around?" Liu Tianshu was still worried about the situation of the team.

"Shi Qiang's people came back just now to report that two teams of devils passed by ten miles to the south and went to the west, and there is nothing unusual for the time being." Nie Dadong's heart has actually been hanging, after all, if the devil knew that the team was hiding in Hujiawan, he would definitely surround this place.

"That's good, how do you get in touch with the troops over there?" The division headquarters had asked them to directly contact the Eighth Route Army in Taihang Mountain, and Liu Tianshu naturally asked about this.

"I have been in contact with the Eighth Regiment that is active here, and they are now sending troops to operate west of Minjian County, making the appearance of receiving us, and the attention of the devils should have shifted to that direction. In addition, to the west of Mafang Town, a battalion of troops has been prepared to meet in Liangzhuang. Nie Dadong said with a telegram.

The fourteen regimental-level cadres in the squad, no matter where they are placed, can be regarded as heavyweights. For this reason, the head of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army sent the Eighth Regiment to meet him.

"That's good, I guess this kid Moriki Kato is not easy to fool, as soon as it gets dark, we will move immediately, and strive to pass through Mafang Town as quickly as possible and join the brother troops who respond." Liu Tianshu pondered for a while and said.

Now Moriki Kato should have rushed to the area of Liujiahe, and if it is not surprising, he should be urging the troops to search and advance to the area of Kuangjiashan at that time. At the same time, the devils of the Democratic Construction Association should block the passage west of Kuangjia Mountain.

Even the devils in Mafang Town should have raised their vigilance at present, and maybe send troops to search and find around.

Sure enough, at four o'clock in the afternoon, Shi Qiang rushed back.

"Captain Nie, Captain Liu, more than a hundred devils appeared in Zhaozhuang in the west, and Dawangzhuang in the north, and a search force of devils also appeared." Shi Qiang saw Nie Dadong, Liu Tianshu and Ye Xiaowei sitting in the room, looked at the three of them and said.

When Liu Tianshu heard his report, he immediately drew the location of the devil on a piece of paper, staring at it tightly with a pair of eyes, and thinking nervously in his mind.

"Captain Liu, you say, did the devil find us?" Ye Xiaowei still couldn't calm down in the end.

Liu Tianshu thought for a while, shook his head and said: "The devil should not have discovered our specific location, you see, if the devil knows that we are in Hujiawan, we should first strengthen the strength of the eastern railway line, but according to the report of the guard platoon, the enemy here is not unusual, even the devil in Dawangzhuang in the north, there are only more than 100 people." There was also no trace of a large force following behind. However, we must be prepared in advance to divert and rush forward, in case the devils find us. ”

Hearing Liu Tianshu say so surely, Ye Xiaowei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Nie Dadong nodded and said: "Tianshu is right, we must prepare in advance, in this way, I will notify the troops to assemble and quietly move to the west, so that as soon as it gets dark, we can use lightning speed to break through the devil's resistance and join the receiving troops." ”

Subsequently, the three of them discussed the matter of asking the Eighth Regiment to cooperate, and then Ye Xiaowei used the radio to get in touch with the Eighth Fourth Regiment.

"Captain Xu, we are about to cross the devil's blockade line, so after we leave, we will have to work hard for you to block the village, and only after dark will the villagers be allowed to enter and exit. Thank you for your hard work this time, and thank you comrades on my behalf. Liu Tianshu held Xu Qianhong's hand with some gratitude, looked at him and said sincerely.

This time, in order to escort the detachment across the Pinghan Railway, Xu Qianhong's guerrillas did a lot of work, and three members of the team died.

Of course, in order to express his gratitude to them, Liu Tianshu asked Shi Qiang to give Xu Qianhong all the twelve short guns and bullets he had captured.

Xu Qianhong's guerrillas operated behind enemy lines, and short guns were more suitable than long guns, and besides, some of his guerrillas had only big swords in their hands.

After the team gathered, they quickly rushed to a wooded area west of Hujiawan and hid it, and the guard post sent out by Shi Qiang was naturally all taken back at this time.

Lying in the woods, looking at the road outside Zhaozhuang, from time to time there are devils walking around in plainclothes, those devils and the imperial army who entered the village, after turning over Zhaozhuang, found that there was no shadow of the eight roads, and swaggered out, there were more than ten devils, and also walked to the edge of the woods where the team was hiding, raised the crooked machine gun, and fired a bullet into the woods, and saw the leaves flying sideways, and a few small birds flew out of the forest in shock, and couldn't help laughing, and then slowly walked back.

Seeing that the devil finally walked back, Nie Dadong couldn't help wiping the sweat on his face, he didn't expect Liu Tianshu's guard platoon to be so well prepared, he would catch a few birds in advance and put them in his pocket, and wait until the devil's fire reconnaissance was quietly released.

Not long after the devil left Zhaozhuang, the sky darkened, Nie Dadong waved his hand, and it was still Liu Tianshu's guard platoon that two squads searched and advanced in front, and Company Commander Song escorted these cadres who participated in the study to walk in the middle, and one of Liu Tianshu's guard squads was responsible for breaking the rear.

The devils who went to the area of Zhaozhuang to search did not expect that the team was hiding in the woods less than three miles away from them at that time, and even less than five hundred meters away from those sharp soldiers.

After a day of sweeping outside, they heard a fierce battle between the Eighth Route Army and the Imperial Japanese Army in the west of Minjian County, and they naturally thought that the Eighth Route Army that took the initiative to attack was to meet the small detachment, so their attention naturally turned to the direction of Minjian County.

The detachment followed the devils and the Imperial Association army from a distance, and it was not until they were almost in Mafang Town that they suddenly turned to the cornfield north of the town, and then rushed westward.

The green gauze tent on the North China Plain, in summer, it is a sea of green, and of course there are devils' highways passing through it.

However, a team of more than 100 people walked into the green gauze tent and was immediately submerged without a trace.

Two hours later, they bypassed the town of Mafang, and when they were about to walk out of a green gauze tent, they suddenly found that the road in front of them was lit with fires everywhere.

Liu Tianshu received the report, ran to the front to take a look, and found that countless devils were actually stationed along the highway, but looking at the position of the devils, it seemed that it was only to prevent people from crossing the highway, and did not build strong fortifications on the highway.

Liu Tianshu didn't know that in the morning, Moriki Kato rushed to the county seat of the Minjian and learned that the eight roads of Taihang Mountain suddenly came out, and his first reaction was that these eight roads were here to meet the small team, and immediately commanded the troops to block them, and at the same time increased the search for the area east of the Minjian Association.

Because when he arrived at Liujiahe, he received a report that the pursuing troops had lost the trace of the detachment, and at the same time, the imperial troops who came out of Minjian County and rushed to the fortified Kuangjiashan did not find the whereabouts of the Eighth Route Army detachment at all.

So where did this team go? Will they not be able to become invisible? Kato Moriki was puzzled for a moment. (To be continued.) )
