Hearing that Liu Tianshu promised to train the Self-Defense Force for Shangbao, Mr. Shang felt a little relieved.

Liu Tianshu is very good at fighting, and this matter was inquired in detail by Mr. Shang as early as the last time Shang and Shang Wei came back. This time, the guerrillas were able to force more than 200 devils and puppet troops to withdraw, and it is said that the guerrillas suffered only about a dozen casualties, so Mr. Shang naturally had a relatively intuitive understanding of the guerrillas' combat effectiveness.

You must know that the self-defense forces of Fort Merchant's have the advantage of geographical advantages, and in the battles at the two levels, there were more than 40 casualties, and these people are the backbone of the armed forces in the fort.

It can be said that today's battle has reduced the strength of the merchant fort by half, and if you can't improve the self-defense force in the fort in a short period of time, and wait until the devil comes again, I'm afraid you won't be as lucky as today.

Liu Tianshu said to Mr. Shang that he would send someone to train the team for the fort tomorrow, and then walked out of the merchant fort accompanied by the merchant and a middle-aged man named Shang Jianxun in the fort.

Shi Qiang saw Liu Tianshu come out and immediately greeted him.

"Hadron, what's the situation?" Liu Tianshu saw Shi Qiang and asked with concern.

"Captain, after the devil withdrew to Qingyan Town, there was no movement, and our people were staring at it." Maintain a high degree of vigilance against the movements of devils, which Liu Tianshu has repeatedly requested, and Shi Qiang naturally does not dare to relax.

"Well, keep watching, let's go, let's go back." Liu Tianshu nodded, took Shi Qiang and Li Shu, and returned to Huangshi Village overnight.

Of course, Li Shu's third class still stayed in a small village from Shangbao to Qingyan Town, ready to monitor the devils.

Back in Huangshi Village, Tang Qing and Tang Jiyuan were already waiting there, and seeing Liu Tianshu and the others coming back safely, Tang Qing asked with concern: "Tianshu, is Shangbao okay?" ”

"Secretary Tang, Shangbao is fine for the time being. This matter is a bit strange today, I thought about it carefully, it seems that the devils did not use all their strength to attack the merchant fort, but just let the Imperial Alliance army attack in front, and the two squads of Japanese troops are in a horn trend. Stand guard at the foot of the hill in front of Fort Merchant. I feel that the real purpose of the devils this time is not the merchant fort, but our guerrillas. Liu Tianshu picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of water, then sat on the stool and said.

"The real target is us?" Tang Qing and Tang Jiyuan couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this.

"Yes, on the way back, I thought about it repeatedly, although Shang Bao's Self-Defense Force caused them a little trouble when the devils entered Qingyan Town, they didn't make the devils suffer much damage. Moreover, during this time, the merchant fort also provided food and labor to the devils according to the requirements of the devils, and did not oppose the devils, and the devils had no reason to sweep the merchant fort. At present, Yoshino's hatred in his heart should be our guerrillas, he has suffered a lot of losses at our hands, and he definitely wants to destroy us. So. He takes advantage of the men in our ranks who have the merchant fort, and only needs to attack the merchant fort. We will never sit idly by, and carefully set up a situation for us in the mountains and forests under the merchant fort mountain. It's a pity that he still overestimated himself. Speaking of the back, Liu Tianshu smiled proudly.

Today, the devil is not clever in setting up this game, but it is actually quite clever, because even if this is a game, he has to jump.

It's a pity that the devil didn't expect that as soon as he arrived at the foot of the mountain below the merchant fort, he immediately attacked. Instead, a small army was divided into four small troops, and Shi Qiang and the others, who attacked over the low-lying area, turned out to be just a feint, and once the devil counterattacked, they immediately retreated. And a row from the mountains and forests to the past. He was divided into three small armies and groped westward along the summit, the mountainside, and the foot of the mountain forest. When the devil's ambush was activated, Li Shu, who was walking in the middle, immediately retreated backwards. As soon as the devil chased him, he was attacked by the side, and at the same time, the three squads he led quietly continued to touch the west, taking advantage of the dispersion of the devil's forces, and annihilated his rearguard communication troops in one fell swoop.

The devil's forces were mobilized by themselves, and they fought fiercely with the guerrillas in the forest for two hours, and finally had to retreat to Qingyan Town.

Tang Qing, Tang Jiyuan, Zhang Gouyu and Xu Cheng listened to Liu Tianshu's narration, but their eyes became brighter and brighter.

They never dreamed that this battle could be fought like this.

According to their ideas, since the troops were to relieve the siege of Shangbao, when they arrived at the foot of the hill of Shangbao, they would naturally immediately attack the enemy, but if it was really as they thought, the guerrillas rushed directly through the low-lying land and attacked the devils on the opposite side, it might not take an hour, and the entire army would be completely surrendered to that open land.

"Tianshu, this battle is beautiful." Tang Qing's eyes shone brightly.

"By the way, Secretary Tang, Shangbao has promised to cooperate with us, and at the same time, Mr. Shang promised to immediately send someone to contact Tianjiazhai and Qianjiazhai to strive to reach an agreement with these two to join forces to resist Japan." Liu Tianshu suddenly thought of this important matter.

"Really? This is really good, as long as the three of them agree to join forces with us, the situation in the entire Qingyan Town will definitely be turned upside down, I think we will study this matter carefully and come up with a plan as soon as possible. When Tang Qing heard that Shangbao had agreed to cooperate, he was immediately overjoyed.

As long as these three families agree to cooperate with the guerrillas, the guerrillas will certainly be strengthened, and the strength of the anti-Japanese base areas will be greatly enhanced.

The next day, Liu Tianshu asked Li Shu to take a squad of soldiers into the merchant fort and help the merchant fort train the team. He himself was busy directing the training of the troops.

After Yoshino reported to Captain Aoki that his attack on Fort Merchant's ambush of the guerrillas had failed, Aoki was silent on the phone for two minutes, only to hear the captain's calm voice as his heart grew more and more frightened.

"Yoshino-kun, I'll rush to Qingyan Town tomorrow morning, and I'll talk about everything when I arrive." After saying that, Aoki put down the phone in his hand.

He was very angry when he thought that the Yoshino squadron in Kiyoiwa Town had been overwhelmed by a small guerrilla force. It's just that this Yoshino has some origins, and it is inconvenient for him to reprimand him directly, if someone else makes this ending, he is afraid that he would have already made him disemboweled to apologize to the emperor.

Yoshino, a stupid pig, the dignity of the empire has been lost by him.

Aoki cursed hatefully, then stared at the map on the wall, studying it carefully.

In the past two days, the devil has only strengthened the vigilance of Qingyan Town, and at the same time strengthened the repair and inspection of the road from Qingyan Town to Shuangfengling, which made Liu Tianshu have a bad premonition, but the information in his hand is limited, but he can't judge where the premonition comes from.

This morning, as soon as he came back from the guard class to guide the training, he saw Tang Jiyuan running over in a hurry.

"Captain Liu, I got the news that Aoki, the devil commander stationed in Shuangfeng Ridge, arrived in Qingyan Town two days ago." As soon as Tang Jiyuan saw Liu Tianshu, he said anxiously.

"What? Aoki to Kiyoam Town? Liu Tianshu couldn't help but be surprised, after the Aoki Brigade occupied the Twin Peaks Ridge, the Yoshino Squadron of them arrived in Qingyan Town, and the other two squadrons, the Kawashima Squadron was in the Twin Peaks Ridge and the Kobayashi Squadron was in Shiquan Town.

During this time, the devils seemed to be busy repairing the road, and even built two small turrets on the road from Qingyan Town to Shuangfeng Ridge.

At this time, Aoki came to Qingyan Town, did the devil want to make a name for himself?

"What is he here for? Are you still in Qingyan Town? Also, Are there any anomalies in the enemies of Cheongam Town? Liu Tianshu asked with a frown.

"It's not clear exactly what we're doing here, our inside line in the town only knows that after Aoki arrived in Kiyoyan Town, he talked secretly with Yoshino in the command post for an hour, and then returned to Twin Peaks Ridge in a car with dozens of devils. As for the enemies in Qingyan Town, according to the internal report, the devils have strengthened martial law, by the way, the devils want to issue a certificate of good citizenship in Qingyan Town, Long Quanfu has asked the people in the town to register with the chief of the security guard, and the village chiefs of the surrounding villages have also received a notice asking them to report the population of each village to verify the truth. However, Shangbao and Huangshi Village, Shipan Village and Houshan Village were excluded. Tang Jiyuan said solemnly.

According to the division of labor of the district party committee, the intelligence work has now been handed over to Tang Jiyuan.

"The devil wants to issue a certificate of good citizenship to the villagers?" Hearing this, Liu Tianshu's heart sank.

You know, if the devil's measure is implemented, then it may not be so easy to enter Qingyan Town freely in the future. Besides, the devils directly excluded the three villages of Huangshi, Houshan and Shipan, as well as Shangbao, which means that the people in these four places will not be able to freely enter Qingyan Town in the future.

In that case, the lives of the people in these places will definitely be greatly affected.

"Yes, it is said that the devil stipulates that if there is an outsider in the people's house, they must report it to the village chief, and then report it to the town, if they do not report, once it is verified, they will be punished as gangsters." Tang Jiyuan nodded and said.

"Looks like we're going to have to think about it. By the way, what is Long Haisheng's plainclothes detective team doing during this time? Liu Tianshu suddenly thought of Long Haisheng.

He looted Long Haisheng's belongings, and at the same time repaired the plainclothes detective team, during this time, he was only busy with troop training and business forts, and he didn't care about understanding the situation of the plainclothes detective team.

"Well, Long Haisheng is now a celebrity in Yoshino, he takes the plainclothes detective team around the town all day long, arrests a lot of villagers on the charge of opening eight roads, and arrested one of our comrades yesterday." Tang Jiyuan said hatefully.

"Caught a comrade? Why don't I know about this? Liu Tianshu couldn't help but be surprised.

"In the past two days, you have been busy with the affairs of Shangbao and the training of the troops, and besides, the situation has not been completely clarified, Secretary Tang asked me not to alarm you for the time being." Tang Jiyuan said.

"Ji Yuan, it seems that Long Haisheng is determined to be a traitor, this person is familiar with the situation in Qingyan Town, if this person is not removed, there will be endless troubles." Liu Tianshu pondered.

Just as the two fell silent, a man dressed as a common man ran in. (To be continued.) )
