At the end of the battle, Lu Qiang's side won a big victory, and the soldiers began to collect the equipment of the Japanese army, they didn't know what their boss wanted these garbage equipment for, but since the boss asked them to pick it up, then pick it up, and I don't know what the boss is going to do, recycling?

"Big, big, big boss......" In the grass on the top of the mountain, a group of bandits trembled, and after seeing Lu Qiang's power, they were very scared, hoping that they would not be discovered.

"Over there, Boss!" At the foot of the mountain, the leopard quietly came to Lu Qiang's side and whispered, his eyes glancing at the opposite mountain, and the meaning was self-evident.

"You take a team up and 'invite' them down." Lu Qiang said, saying the word "please", Lu Qiang raised his voice.

"Okay boss." The leopard replied. With a wave of his hand, he led a group of people to detour from the right side.

Within ten minutes, Lu Qiang heard a gunshot, and then it was gone, and then more than 100 people dressed in people's clothes walked out of the dense grass one by one with their hands raised one after another under the "leadership" of the leopard.

Sitting on the turret of the T-34, Lu Qiang 'looked down' at the group of bandits in front of him, no, or the people in the nearby villages fell into the grass, a group of scum with a combat strength of just over five, and the total number of hot weapons was less than 30, so he wanted to ambush the devil, it was really an old birthday star hanging himself - looking for death. "Who's the head?" Glancing at these people, most of them were unclothed, yellow and weak.

"Silence

"It's all dead." Lu Qiang said suddenly, these words can make these bandits not a person frightened miserably, watching the people who surrounded them all raising their guns and pointing their guns at themselves with black holes, a middle-aged man in the middle hurriedly stood up and stammered: "Jun, Jun, I am, I am." ”

"Name!" Lu Qiang asked him.

"Wang**!"

"Age!"

"Thirty or eight!"

"What are you just going to do?"

"This" The bandit leader hesitated a little, but when he saw Lu Qiang constantly playing with the pistol in his hand, and the muzzle of the gun was always pointed at him intentionally or unintentionally, he immediately knelt down and hurriedly said, "I said, I said!" We heard that some devils were passing by here, and we wanted to beat them, and then we saw you, and then we saw that the devils were killed by you, and finally you found out. ”

Lu Qiang nodded, did not speak, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became depressed, those bandits were affected by this atmosphere, and they were all trembling, for fear that Lu Qiang would suddenly order to shoot......

"General, the lost brigade has been found, but our people are too late, and they are all broken."

"Nani!" The devil's general was stunned.

"Hayi! Our people have examined and found a total of 1,104 bodies, 36 missing, and there are traces of heavy artillery strikes at the scene, and there is no lack of direct hit by shells, resulting in the possibility of no bones. The adjutant said.

"How can it be repaired!" The general said angrily, "Go find out who did it immediately." ”

"Hayi!" The adjutant answered, turned and pushed the door open.

"Bagaya Road!" After the adjutant left, the general became furious and smashed everything in the house. Inadari's father was a close friend of his father, and because of his high military rank, Inadari Kojiro's father entrusted him to himself, hoping that he would pull him, and now it's okay, the person is dead, and the entire infantry brigade is gone.

Sunset. , the broken intestine man is at the end of the world...... Uh, that's wrong, it's Lu Qiang and they are walking on a shoddy dirt road, not even a road, because they can't see the road shape at all.

The sound of a rumbling tank engine can be heard from afar.

Walk well, suddenly, a tank turned off, this is already the 5th, the round-trip trip of nearly 100 kilometers only turned off five tanks, it is good enough, if it is a shoddy T-34, it is estimated that half of it will have to lie down.

In the team, the newly captured bandits, now with a pack of compressed biscuits in their left hand and a canned pork vermicelli in their right hand, have no longer the same sad face as before, and they can be as happy as they want.

Why did they become bandits, it's not that they have nothing to eat, otherwise they would be guilty of doing this kind of life with their heads hanging on the waistband of their pants, and how pleasant it is to farm at home.

Now that they had food to drink, and meat to drink, they were of course much happier.

When I came out, there were no fewer people, and there were more than 100 people, and the tents were obviously not enough, so I had to squeeze in.

The next day, a piece of news appeared on the front page of major newspapers, which roughly meant: The fourth detachment of the Fourth Army, three regiments with a total of more than 3,000 people, completely annihilated the Japanese army, a brigade of more than 11 people, and so on......

As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a lot of movement, if it was the Eighth Road, then they were not surprised, after all, the Eighth Road was much stronger than the south in all aspects, and there was a great victory in Pingxingguan. However, this time it was the Fourth Army in the south that completely annihilated the Japanese army, so it was different, the Fourth Army in the south had been encircled and suppressed by Jiang Guangtou before the reorganization, and there was no replenishment of weapons and ammunition, the combat capability was low, the personnel were scarce, and it was only able to fight guerrillas.

Jiang Guangtou in Chongqing held two reports in his hand, one was a good report sent to him by the New Fourth Army, which probably meant how they completely annihilated a Japanese brigade, and the second was to ask for supplies, saying that because of the total annihilation of the Japanese army, how much he had lost and how much he wanted supplies. The first one was fine, but the second one was watched by Principal Jiang who was furious and scolded his mother Xipi.

Similarly, when the Japanese saw this newspaper, they were equally annoyed, and as the top boss of this brigade, Yoshio Iwamatsu, was furious, and the 15th Division had always been responsible for the security and law and order maintenance in the Japanese-occupied territories. Now that such a thing has happened in the occupied area, as the division commander of the 15th Division, he will inevitably be scolded by the above. After being scolded, Yoshio Iwamatsu is asked to find out and eliminate the other party.

At this time, Lu Qiang had already returned to the base, and after arranging the newly recruited bandits, he went back to work, and at the same time learned about the situation of the base after he left.

By mid-October, the 15th Division had already collected similar information, and it was almost time to start encircling and suppressing the other side. However, the only thing that puzzled them was the sudden appearance and disappearance of the unit, according to the intelligence, the elimination of a brigade was because of this team, the intelligence showed that the other side had a lot of heavy artillery and tanks similar to the Soviet/United States, its personal equipment was very sophisticated, in addition, in the afternoon of the same day, 26 kilometers away, a squadron was eliminated, according to the survivors, nine times out of ten it was the same force, therefore, even if the Japanese army had figured out the Fourth Army, they did not dare to act, for fear of startling the snake.

On the other side, the Battle of Wuhan was nearing its end, and in mid-October, when the battle was approaching Wuhan's core position, conditions in all respects were clearly not conducive to Wuhan's entrenchment.

From the perspective of the strategic situation: to the east of Wuhan, the towns and fortresses along the Yangtze River have been lost, and the gateway has been opened; To the north and northeast of Wuhan, the Japanese army occupied the Pinghan Line and crossed the Dabie Mountain, occupying all positions north of Wuhan; To the southeast of Wuhan, the Japanese army was stepping up its strategic advance. In other words, the three towns of Wuhan have gradually fallen into the encirclement of the Japanese army on three sides.

From the perspective of operational terrain: although as early as 1936, the Chinese army built a circular defensive position with the three towns of Wuhan as the core, about 100 kilometers long, and built a lot of strong fortifications after the fall of Nanjing, but the suburbs of the three towns of Wuhan are mostly lakes and marshes and harbors, and there is no danger to defend, so it is not suitable for the city defense of the large corps.

Judging from the state of the troops, although the Chinese army has the same hatred for the enemy, its morale is strong, and it has inflicted a large number of casualties on the enemy in several months of fighting, but in the continuous months of operations, the casualties have also been extremely high, and they are quite tired, and they urgently need to replenish and recuperate. Therefore, Jiang Guangtou decided to take the initiative in Wuhan.

By late October, the Wuhan garrisons had all withdrawn, and most of Hebei had fallen into enemy hands, and the current resistance was carried out by some Fourth Army guerrillas, private armed forces, bandits, and Lu Qiang's base troops.

Since Lu Qiang returned to the base, he began to rectify the entire base, mainly to move those ordinary people to the destroyed village that he found before, and then build a large number of residents. After that, the base began to be renovated, and the surrounding hills were covered with mines, stepping mines, tripping mines, jumping mines, exploding mines, delayed mines, directional mines, and so on. Anyway, it's all kinds of mines, and the density is outrageous. Then the minefield and the base were all enclosed with barbed wire, leaving only one road, and then a dozen semi-underground cement bunkers with a thickness of up to 1 meter were cast on the top of the mountain, which were very well defended.

The construction in the base is also becoming more and more comprehensive, with various facilities and training becoming harsh. However, the weapons and equipment are still the same, after all, it is not good to change the type too quickly.

Dawang Village, the new name of this village, has more than 3,000 people, which is not a small number. Now there are still tents in the village, and houses are being built everywhere, because the village was in ruins before, Lu Qiang and they cleaned it up, as the first base, at the back of the village, it is the road to the base, running back and forth often, so it is becoming more and more like a road.

Today, a group of strangers came to Dawang Village, leading more than a dozen canvas-covered carts pulled by cows or donkeys.

"Stop!" As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, he was stopped by a strong man.

"We are from the Fourth Army, I am Bai Jiuren, your boss recognizes it, and I am here to talk to your boss about important matters." A middle-aged man in the convoy stood up and said.

"Bai Jiuren?!" The strong man asked rhetorically, the name he remembered, and the boss had said that if they came, he would bring them over. However, in order to prevent someone from impersonating, the boss handed himself a few photos, which were Bai Jiuren and some other important people.

"Yes!" Bai Jiuren nodded and said.

"Wait a minute." The strong man felt in his pocket, took out a few photos, and took out a color photo marked 'Bai Jiuren' from it, and compared it with him, the similarity reached 80%. "Come with me." The strong man said.

Following the strong man, Bai Jiuren and the others walked towards the village, and found that the entire village was under construction, and many of them had already been built, remembering that when they first came, most of them were still in ruins. Therefore, Bai Jiuren was shocked by the speed of construction.
