The big boss of Heifeng Village snorted and reprimanded: "The old man has smashed the ring kiln for most of his life, what should I do and still use you to teach him?" ”

The mysterious man who reported the news saw the murderous face of the big boss, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground, slapped himself, and said: "The little one should be damned, he lost his words for a while, please punish the big boss." ”

The big boss ignored him, and just sent several groups of spies to investigate in a row.

A little minion soon came back and said, "Big boss, I'm afraid we have run away in vain this time." The reinforcements of the security regiment rushed back, and the heroes who had infiltrated the city from the Black Eagle Village suffered heavy casualties, and the rest were driven out. ”

The mysterious person who reported the news hurriedly asked: "Good man, have my owner and Zhang's family been raided by the security team?" ”

The little minion thought for a moment and said, "I haven't heard anyone talk about it, most of them haven't had time yet!" ”

The messenger knelt in front of the big boss and begged: "Big boss, please send troops to save my host." Now that the security regiment has just won the battle, the people's hearts will inevitably be relaxed, as long as the heroes enter the county, my host can lead the people in the city to respond. ”

The big boss was a little excited, but the return of another sentry made him dispel this idea. Because Liu Zida's department has already entered the city, he can't please him if he attacks the county seat again.

After a while, another sentinel reported and said: "Back to the big boss, I heard that the security team had a big battle with the Japanese devils in Chenjiagou this morning. ”

The big boss was taken aback and said, "This group of northeasterners really dares to do something with the Japanese?" What, who won after them? ”

The sentry approached and whispered, "I heard that the security regiment wiped out all the Japanese, but I don't know if it's true or not." ”

The big boss sighed and said: "Whether it's true or not, who loses and who wins, we in Ping'an County are just afraid that we won't be able to stay!" After a pause, he shouted again: "The back team becomes the front team, go back to the cottage!" With his order, the bandits of Black Wind Village quickly retreated.

Zheng Weiguo and the others were worried that the devils would come to retaliate in a big way, and they had been ambushed between Chenjiagou and Tongping County for a long time. But they waited until it was dark and didn't wait for the devil, but waited for the good news from the county seat.

Since he learned that the bandits might attack the city, Zhang Haiyan has been holding on to his heart, and now he finally put his mind at ease. He thought for a moment and said, "Tuanzuo, Deputy Regiment Commander Yu, they asked for instructions on how to deal with the Zhang family and the Huang family who colluded with the bandits. ”

Zheng Weiguo pondered for a while and said, "Detain them first, and wait until I go back!" In fact, Zheng Weiguo also had some difficulties, he had no experience in dealing with similar situations, so he had to postpone it.

The next day, the devil finally sorted. According to the reconnaissance of the three devils, there are only a few hundred devils, plus more than 30 two devils, a total of one or two hundred people have already pounced along the official road. At this time, the so-called Imperial Association Army had not yet been established, and there were not many puppet armies in the system.

Zheng Weiguo frowned and reprimanded, "What kind of reconnaissance are you?" The number of people has not been figured out! ”

The three slippers were a little ashamed and said, "Tuanza, this group of devils is advancing in a battle formation. The line was very long, and there was a search detachment in front of it to open the way. I didn't dare to get too close, so I couldn't see it very clearly. However, they should not have heavy weapons, at most seven or eight grenadiers, seven or eight light machine guns. ”

In the early days, the Japanese army invading China was well equipped, and each detachment (the Devil's detachment was equivalent to the squad of the National Army, and the Devil's squad was smaller, equivalent to the group of the National Army) had a light machine gun. A squad generally has three infantry detachments and a grenadier detachment armed with three Type 89 heavy grenadiers, which add up to three light machine guns and three grenadiers. For some particularly reinforced units, one or two additional grenadiers were added to each squad. As for the 60 mortars that often appear in film and television, they are the equipment of the national army, and they were only installed in the later stages of the Anti-Japanese War. In addition to the 50mm grenadier and the sapper barrier-breaking mortar, the caliber of other types of mortars of the Japanese army is relatively large, and the smallest is also 70mm, and only the brigade and above are equipped.

According to the three slippers, there are about two or three squads of these devils, and the number of them is about 100 to 150 people. Of course, this kind of strength is not powerful, but it is definitely not comparable to the more than 100 people in the security group. As for the attached two devils, Zheng Weiguo didn't think they had any combat effectiveness.

At the moment of the great enemy, Zheng Weiguo, as a commander, must not panic, otherwise the army will be in turmoil and will definitely be defeated. He looked very calm and said, "It's okay, let's do as I said before!" Li Sanniu, you take the reconnaissance platoon and the newly recruited soldiers in the Chenjiagou area to the nearby villages, and persuade the villagers to quickly withdraw to the mountains. The rest of the men and horses were led by me, Haiyan, and Shuanghu to attack the devils with a part of their heads. Haiyan led a group of people to ambush on the left side of the official road, and Shuanghu led people to ambush on the right side of the official road. Remember not to fight hard with the devil, and change places with one shot. ”

Zhang Haiyan was worried about Zheng Weiguo's safety, and said hurriedly: "Tuanzao, let's let me block in front of the official road!" ”

Zheng Weiguo said with a smile: "I won't let you go with such a good terrain!" Don't delay, everyone, act now! ”

Several officers hurriedly saluted and said yes, and quickly moved into action. After more than a month of training, the troops' reaction speed was not bad. However, the speed of the devil's advance was much faster than everyone expected, although most of them were on foot, but they were already less than ten miles away from Chenjiagou.

Wu Quanfu couldn't help but say to the night owl who came to report the enemy's situation: "You don't borrow it, why is the devil advancing so fast!" ”

The night owl wiped his sweat and said, "Deputy Platoon Commander Wu, the devil is marching in a hurry, trotting all the way!" If it weren't for the fact that the two devils couldn't keep up, I'm afraid the devils would come faster! ”

Wu Quanfu scolded, a little anxious, and said, "Tuanzao, what can I do?" I'm afraid the villagers are still packing up! ”

Zheng Weiguo said: "You send a few people to urge!" Let the villagers not take everything with them, but take the important ones and retreat to the mountains. ”

Wu Quanfu hurriedly arranged for several soldiers to ride horses along the way to report the news, sighed again, and said: "I'm afraid that the villagers will be reluctant to lose their lives!" The rest of the commanders and fighters were worried, and the atmosphere became extremely tense.

Zheng Weiguo said: "Everyone calm down, the enemy is strong and I am weak, and it is impossible to want to be immortal." The devil is coming soon, and I'll be beaten up later! Do you know the way? The brothers responded, and their tension eased slightly.

After a while, a search detachment of devils appeared on the official road. One by one, they carried the 38 big covers, lined up in a loose formation, and quickly moved forward. Because this section of the official road is relatively straight, the commanders and fighters of the security regiment can intuitively feel the devil's ability to march on foot.

Wu Quanfu scolded again and said, "The dog is running so fast!" ”

Zheng Weiguo said with a smile: "Don't look at the devils' short legs, but they have excellent physical strength and a very strong ability to travel long distances." "Historically, guerrillas behind enemy lines were often chased by devils to vomit blood. On the one hand, the supply of armed logistics behind enemy lines is not enough, resulting in poor physical fitness of soldiers; On the other hand, it is because of the perverted physical ability of the Japanese devils.

The devil is getting closer and closer, and the fighters are very nervous. Zhu Zi felt that his breath was short, he took a deep breath and said, "Big brother, let's fight!" ”

Zheng Weiguo reprimanded: "What's the hurry?!" No one is allowed to shoot without my orders! With your marksmanship, can you hit it from such a distance? Wait until you are within 50 meters before firing, and even if the devil fires first without my order, you are not allowed to return fire! As he spoke, the devil really shot his gun. But instead of discovering them, they were attacking tentatively. Some soldiers were in a hurry, and they wanted to return fire when they picked up their guns, but fortunately, the insurance was not opened.

The devils were soon only seventy or eighty meters away from the mountain beam where they were hiding, and the warriors were so nervous that they could even hear their own panting. Wu Quanfu, who has always been calm, couldn't hold it back, and said: "Tuanzao, let's hold the fire, I'm afraid that I will be stuck by the devil if I get closer." ”

Zheng Weiguo saw that everyone was very nervous, and he had the intention to fire now, but after thinking about everyone's marksmanship and weapons, he still refused. Many people were so nervous that they broke out in a cold sweat, if it weren't for the hellish training during this time, they were afraid that someone would be a deserter on the spot.

The devil finally approached the range of fifty meters, Zheng Weiguo said softly: "Don't shoot, open the safe!" The fighters shivered with nervousness, but they were able to open the insurance smoothly. only heard Zheng Weiguo shouting and fighting, and several fast and slow machines fired at the same time, and most of the devil's search team was knocked down in an instant. In fact, they could have been caught in one go, but the fighters were too nervous, and many of them did not hit the range of the target at all.

At the same time, the spear-wielding fighters also opened fire on the devil brigade behind. Although the distance is a little farther, everyone is firing a salvo, and the official road where the devil is located and the mountain beam are in a straight line, so some results have been achieved. Zheng Weiguo himself shot a devil officer who was probably a squad leader. But when he looked back, he couldn't help but be surprised. It turned out that there were still a few people left in the devil search squad in this wave of attacks just now, and they had already chosen a relatively hidden terrain, which was difficult to destroy for a while.

Zheng Weiguo hurriedly gave an order and said, "Withdraw!" Quickly retreat to the mountain beam behind as a squad! Fast! ”

Wu Quanfu leaned in while letting the soldiers retreat, and said, "Tuanzao, you withdraw first, and I will break the back!" ”

Zheng Weiguo said: "No, the devil's grenadier reacts quickly, and if you don't withdraw, it's too late!" As he spoke, he threw out two grenades in succession, and took advantage of the smoke to withdraw with his brothers in some embarrassment. Everyone didn't have time to catch their breath, and ran desperately towards the mountain beam behind. There were about a hundred meters between the two mountain beams, and the mountain beam in front of them was very low, and the devils could quickly climb up and shoot at them.

Just as Zheng Weiguo and the others ran down the mountain beam, the grenade fired by the devil with a grenadier exploded on the beam, and the dust that shot out could even catch up with them. The grenadier is easy to carry and easy to operate, making it an excellent individual fire support weapon.

At this critical moment, Zhang Haiyan and Duan Shuanghu finally made a move, and they suddenly fired fiercely at the devils from both sides of the official road. However, due to the long distance, and the devils have already formed a formation, the personnel are relatively scattered, and they have not achieved good results. But they slowed down the progress of the devils and bought Zheng Weiguo and them precious time.

Most of the Japanese officers in this era were masters of tactics, and the non-commissioned officers and soldiers also had strong execution skills. Although they were in a disadvantageous situation of being caught between two sides, they quickly stabilized their position. A squad of devils, under the cover of machine guns, quickly occupied a hill. This hill was a commanding height, and the Japanese occupied it and quickly counter-suppressed Zhang Haiyan and Duan Shuanghu's men, thus relieving the threat from the flank.

Looking at the front of the official road, several fish from the devil search team had already climbed the mountain beam. They soon found Zheng Weiguo and others who were running desperately on the official road ahead. If it was the Chinese army, most of them were still hiding under the mountain beams at this time waiting for reinforcements, but the Japanese devils were different, and they had a high sense of tactics and combat enthusiasm even if they were ordinary soldiers.

Due to the previous attack, the commanders and fighters of the security regiment who were running on the official road were in an extremely dangerous situation. Their backs have already been sold to the enemy!
