The captain of the small island brigade, who had just set up his headquarters in the Liugu County Government, was admiring the Tang Dynasty landscape painting on the wall with great interest, when he saw an officer running in.

"Report to the captain of the group, the captain of the Miura squadron, that the north gate was attacked by the people of China, and the soldiers stationed at the north gate suffered heavy losses. Now the Shina people are fleeing from the north gate, and the third squad of the Miura squadron has gone to reinforce it. The officer saluted Kojima and said in a loud voice.

"What? The people of China attacked the north gate? Kojima's face changed, and he turned his head to stare at the officer and asked.

"Yes, the people who attacked these attacks were all dressed as civilians, and it is very likely that they were scattered self-defense forces." The officer bowed his head and replied.

The remnants of the security regiment in Liugu County are fighting fiercely with the imperial army at the West Gate, and Kojima knows this. He also knew that the county magistrate and other dignitaries appointed by the national government were fleeing from Ximen, but he did not pay attention to this. All he cares about is to occupy Liugu County, as for those security groups, they are all rabble anyway, they can't make any big waves, they can be eliminated, if they can't be wiped out, they can be eliminated, and if they can't be wiped out, they can be driven away.

Now his top priority is to control the flank of Zhengtai Road and ensure that the Imperial Japanese Army takes Shanxi along Zhengtai Road.

But now there is a situation at the north gate, which makes him feel a faint uneasiness in his heart.

"Order Miura-kun to destroy the Shina people who dare to attack the imperial army as quickly as possible and block the north gate." Kojima commanded in a deep voice.

Just when Kojima's order was issued, Liu Tianshu and his men had already started a fierce battle with the Japanese army chasing close to the city gate.

When Tan Liu and the others covered the retreat of Old Lady Jiang and his party to the city gate, there were only three people left in the courtyard who followed him, and the rest were all martyred in the battle.

Liu Tianshu saw that Tan Liu and others had run into the city gate, immediately grabbed the grenade, kept throwing it down, and the devils who were plucking up their strength to shoot and chase were blown up by the grenades that kept falling on the top of the city gate, and the momentum of the pursuit was blocked, Tan Liu and others ran out of the city gate, and then lay in the bunker outside the city with Liu Jianguang and others, and kept firing at the city gate, blocking the city gate and preventing the devils from chasing out of the city.

As for Old Lady Jiang and Old Man Liu, they quickly ran along the avenue to the northwest.

Liu Tianshu knew that Tan Liu and Liu Jianguang were buying time for a few of them, and after he threw down the four grenades beside him, he shouted to the young man who was throwing grenades: "Quick, grab the rope and go down, the little devil is about to attack." ”

The devils who attacked the city gate knew that the Chinese on the city wall were a huge threat, and they had already divided some of them and rushed along the stairs towards the city wall, while Liu Tianshu and several people were suppressed by the devil's machine gun fire, except for grabbing grenades and throwing them out, but they did not dare to show their heads at all.

At this time, the people of the city had fled from the city, and if they did not withdraw, they would probably be left on the wall.

When the young man heard this, he turned to the other two men and shouted, "Let's go." He threw a grenade out of his hand, then turned and ran towards the rope.

Liu Tianshu had already seen the devil appear on the stairs at this time, quickly grabbed the grenade, and threw it hard, the grenade rolled down the stone steps, swirling with smoke, and exploded in the frightened eyes of the devil, and the two devils were blown down the stone steps, and the rest of the devils were blocked by this, and they raised their guns to fire at the city wall.

Liu Tianshu's figure moved, and the short gun in his hand kept firing at the devil's position, but unfortunately the little devil hid in the corner and fired three shots in a row.

However, taking advantage of the fact that the little devil did not dare to show his head, Liu Tianshu quickly ran to the rope at the corner of the city wall, grabbed a rope, and flew out of the city wall with a jump, and waited until his body fell close to the city wall, shrunk his legs, and then kicked lightly on the city wall, and his body took off again, but he slipped four or five meters, and between a few ups and downs, he had fallen to the ground, and then the other three grabbed the rope and just slipped to the ground.

"Let's go." Liu Tianshu saw that the three of them had landed safely, and immediately ran towards Tan Liu, Liu Jianguang and the others with them.

Liu Jianguang and Tan Liu saw that Liu Tianshu and the four had withdrawn, and the little devil also rushed to the gate of the city after paying the price of a few people, and immediately shouted to withdraw, and more than a dozen people turned around and ran quickly into the distance.

As soon as he ran a short distance along the avenue, a little devil appeared on the city wall.

At this time, everyone took out the strength to eat, and ran desperately towards the woods in the distance, and Kankan ran into the woods, and the devil's bullets chased after them.

It may be that the devil who recaptured the city gate saw that the escapees had run away, and there was no point in chasing them again, so they didn't chase them out again.

Seeing that there were no pursuers behind him, Liu Tianshu and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm really tired." Liu Jianguang gasped and shouted, his body fell to the side, Liu Tianshu hurriedly went over and grabbed it, and said: "Second brother, hold on a little longer, otherwise it will be troublesome for the little devil to chase him out." ”

You know, as a brigade-level Japanese army, it is equipped with a cavalry reconnaissance squad. Although it was unlikely that the Japanese commander would send a reconnaissance team to pursue him, Liu Tianshu still felt that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time.

"Yes, Brother Tianshu is right, Jianguang, let's hold on a little longer and catch up with the master." Tan Liu took a breath and said with a flushed face.

Although the rest of the people were too tired, they finally picked up a life, which was much luckier than those brothers who threw their lives in the city, so they naturally gritted their teeth and ran forward with all their strength.

Running over a small hill, I heard a crisp voice sound: "Brother Tianshu, they are back." ”

When Liu Tianshu heard Zhao Xiaomei's surprised voice, his heart was warm, and when a few people walked over, they saw more than 100 men, women, and children standing there, and there were more than a dozen people with guns and guards around.

Seeing Liu Tianshu and others coming over, cheers rang out in the crowd, Liu Guangzhi greeted him with Liu Jiangong's support, and when he saw Liu Tianshu covered in gunsmoke, his eyes showed gratitude, and he said: "Tianshu, thanks to you this time, otherwise, I'm afraid my old bones will be lost here." ”

Old lady Jiang also walked over accompanied by Jiang Kaiming at this time, and when he saw Liu Tianshu and a few others, he arched his hand and said sincerely: "This time, the old family was able to escape, thanks to a few Liu Zhuangshi, Liu Zhuangshi, you will be the life-saving benefactor of my Jiang family in the future." ”

Tan Liu stood aside, and when he heard Old Lady Jiang's words, his face was also full of joy.

Although Mrs. Jiang did not mention thanking herself, this time the Jiang family was able to get out of danger, and she made great efforts. Besides, as the head of the Jiang family's nursing home, he is happier than anything else that the master's family can be safe.

"Old lady Jiang, Senior Liu is polite, this time I was able to escape from Liugu County, it all depends on everyone's concerted efforts, especially those who threw their lives in Liugu County, they are the real heroes." Liu Tianshu thought that this time for everyone to go out of the city, nearly twenty of the nursing homes of several large families were sacrificed, and his heart was heavy.

"Well, Liu Zhuangshi is right, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of his family of those nursing homes who died in battle." Old Man Jiang sighed, and the heads of the other big families also followed with tears in their eyes.

At this time, the elderly middle-aged man who was rescued from the prison by Liu Tianshu saw that everyone was full of grief, so he came over and reminded: "Liu Zhuangshi, a few of us can get out of the prison by luck, it all depends on your righteous rescue, and I will always remember this love." However, this is not a place to stay for a long time, so I think it is better for everyone to leave early. ”

When Liu Tianshu heard this, he glanced back at Tian Deshan, and noticed that there was an indescribable calmness in him, so he nodded and said, "Mr. Tian is right, let's stay here first." ”

After his words, the families immediately began to prepare for their journey.

Hearing that Liu Tianshu and his entourage were about to rush to Wuyang County in western Hebei, a bright light flashed in Tian Deshan's eyes, and then he lowered his voice and asked: "Tianshu, this is still one hundred and twenty kilometers away from Wuyang County, are you going to go over like this?" I heard Mrs. Jiang and Mr. Liu say that they are going back to Shanxi, why don't you follow? ”

Tian Deshan originally thought that Liu Tianshu and Old Man Liu were a family, but he didn't expect that although the two were surnamed Liu, they were far apart.

"Hehe, I met Mrs. Jiang and Mr. Liu on the road, because everyone has to go west, no, there is a good response along the way. However, a few of my friends are going to Wuyang County to join their relatives, and I can't go back to my hometown anyway, so I'll send them over. Liu Tianshu smiled and said.

He has always been a little curious about these prisoners who were rescued by himself, because looking at the appearance of these people, they are not extremely vicious people, but they were put in the prison of the county police station, and they are also locked in the strongest cell.

You must know that the prisons of the national government, often the most solid places, are to hold such people.

It's just that he knows that he doesn't know these people well, so it's naturally inconvenient to open his mouth to test it.

"So that's the case, by the way, a few of us are just about to rush to Xinhe County, and you will also pass by Xinhe County when you go to Wuyang County, or you will go all the way, so you can take care of it." Tian Deshan groaned, and then said.

"Okay, just listen to Mr. Tian." Liu Tianshu agreed with a smile.

Anyway, not far ahead, Old Lady Jiang and Old Man Liu are about to part ways with themselves, and if they can join them, the road will be a little more lively.

Hearing Liu Tianshu's promise, the young man who volunteered to lead the way said with a smile: "Brother Liu, your skills in fighting devils are so good, can you teach me?" ”

This young man's name is Luo Yuanda, and his name was still after he escaped, and he took the initiative to introduce himself to Liu Tianshu.

In the battle in Liugu County, Liu Tianshu found that Luo Yuanda was not only brave in battle, but also very clever, except for the initial encounter with the devil who was a little nervous, and his later performance was remarkable, and he liked this young man who was not much younger than himself.
