After a scuffle, the guard regiment of the 14th Army was scattered. The soldiers of a company escorted Wei Lihuang and his entourage to a small hill with difficulty. Everyone was so tired that they couldn't run, so they had to stop and rest. Unexpectedly, as soon as he rested for a while, he was surrounded by dense Japanese troops on all sides.

At the bottom of the mountain, a Japanese officer yelled at a guy wearing a melon skin hat: "Do you see clearly? Epaulettes with a gold star on it? Wrong, dead pull dead pull! ”

This guy nodded hurriedly and said, "Taijun, don't worry! It's really real, there are several of them just with two Venus on the top! ”

The officer was overjoyed, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Yo Xi, your great good citizen! As he spoke, he threw him a piece of ocean, and then ordered the troops to begin to close in.

On the top of the mountain, Chief of Staff Guo and the commander of the guard company were going out to observe the enemy situation before venturing. Seeing that there were more and more enemies, the commander of the guard company said anxiously: "Senza, let me take the brothers to rush once, and fight a bloody way before the devils are completely encircled!" ”

Chief of Staff Guo looked back at the soldiers, and his heart was cold. Even if they are lightly wounded, there are only about thirty of them who can fight. And after this breakthrough, everyone's physical strength was exhausted, and they all gasped non-stop, and many people were even tired and cramped. In this case, how to rush out? He thought for a moment and said, "You tell the brothers to hurry up and rest, and let's try to hold out until dark, and then find a way to break through." ”

The commander of the guard company said hurriedly: "But the longer it drags on, I'm afraid that the more devils will come!" ”

Chief of Staff Guo sighed and said, "The crockpot will inevitably be broken, and we soldiers will always have this day!" Company Commander Liu, are you afraid of death? ”

Company Commander Liu was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Don't be afraid!" Now is the time for soldiers to serve the country, we must win glory for the country and shed the last drop of blood! ”

Chief of Staff Guo said excitedly: "Good job! However, the Japanese invaders still exist, so don't die easily. In case something is not in harmony, you should try to escort the main seat to the protrusion! ”

Company Commander Liu said: "Okay! As long as I, Liu Dali, still have a breath, I will definitely protect the general seat. ”

After Chief of Staff Guo went back, he whispered to Wei Lihuang: "Commander-in-chief, the situation is critical at the moment, please change into civilian clothes!" As he spoke, he handed over a set of ordinary people's clothes that he had gotten out of nowhere.

Wei Lihuang threw his clothes aside, and said angrily: "I am a dignified Chinese soldier, who sacrificed his life on the battlefield, and died a glorious death, how can I ask for peace for a while, lose my national integrity, and be ashamed!" ”

Chief of Staff Guo hurriedly said: "General seat, you are in danger in Shanxi, how can you lose your righteousness because of small sections!" ”

Wei Lihuang sighed and said, "Jiqiao, don't say more. If I can't protect Shanxi in my life, I should inspire the people with death! ”

As he was talking, the Japanese army sent a traitor to persuade him to surrender. This guy was brought to Wei Lihuang, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he knew that he was a practitioner, and he talked about the Greater East Asia Co-prosperity Circle.

Wei Lihuang was furious when he heard this, and shouted: "Drag it down and cut it!" ”

The traitor was shocked and said: "The two countries will not fight each other!" ”

Wei Lihuang scolded angrily: "You thing that has abandoned your ancestors and abandoned your ancestors, what kind of messenger is it!" Chop it off, throw your head down to the devil! ”

The traitor was so frightened that he begged for mercy, but his head was cut off by the angry warriors. This head is really bone-rooted, and it has rolled to the foot of the mountain. The Japanese commander was so angry that he pulled out his command knife and shouted: "Kill a few and give it to you!" ”

Groups of Japanese soldiers quickly pounced on the hill. Looking down from the top of the mountain, there are devil's helmets everywhere. The soldiers were prostrate on their positions, quietly waiting for the Japanese troops to come closer, so quiet that they could even hear each other's breathing.

The Japanese troops were put closer to fight, but in fact, out of helplessness, because although the guard company was well-equipped, it was all submachine guns, and the effective firing range was only 100 meters. The officers only had pistols with them, and the effective range was only 50 meters. Therefore, they could only watch the Japanese army move closer and not be able to fight back.

The Japanese army is getting closer and closer, two hundred meters, one hundred and fifty meters, one hundred meters, fifty meters! Chief of Staff Guo took a pistol and shot at the Japanese soldiers, shouting "Fight!" ”

The soldiers, who had long been unable to hold back, quickly opened fire, and dozens of flower traps erupted in an angry rain of bullets. The Japanese probably did not expect that the Chinese army would have such a strong firepower, and they could not stand for a while, and retreated in a hurry.

The Japanese commander was not angry but rejoiced, saying: "Yo Xi! There are so many automatic firearms, there must be something big on this mountain! Order all units not to open fire, and try to capture this man alive! ”

The herald leaned his legs excitedly and shouted, "Hay! There was jubilation when the order was handed down to the ministries. Although the Japanese army won successive battles in the early days, it never captured a high-ranking officer of the Chinese army, so there was a strong interest from top to bottom.

After confirming the presence of "big things", the Japanese launched an even more frantic attack. They took advantage of their superiority in strength and intermittent shooting skills to launch a constant onslaught on the hilltop. Although the soldiers of the guard company are brave, the guns in their hands can't hit the enemy, so why can't they cry out?

Wei Lihuang saw that the general trend had gone, and he took out a small pistol and was about to kill himself.

Fortunately, Chief of Staff Guo quickly snatched it down. He cried out, "Lord, you can't leave your brethren behind! ”

Wei Lihuang said: "As the deputy commander-in-chief of the theater and the lieutenant general of the national army, how can I be a prisoner of the Japanese invaders? Don't stop me, after I die, I will quickly lead the brothers to disperse and break through, and how many can run out of the city! ”

Company Commander Liu cried: "Boss, you are going to die, and the brothers don't want to live alone. ”

The other officers and soldiers also cried and said, "Boss, let us rush again!" ”

Wei Lihuang looked around, there were devils everywhere, where did he rush out? He felt a sadness in his heart, thinking that after so many years of participating in the revolution, it was time to follow the former prime minister (that is, Mr. Nakayama) underground......

Just as the will to die was germinating, a loud military horn suddenly sounded from the west and north and south. As the trumpet sounded, groups of soldiers in gray uniforms and German helmets poured out from both wings. They were extremely well armed, holding either semi-automatic rifles or light machine guns, and their firepower was extremely fierce and they hit with great accuracy.

Almost as soon as the Japanese officers were down, most of the officers of the Japanese army lay down, and even the Japanese commander was shot in the head. The Japanese tried to fight back, but they were always one step slower, and they were often killed as soon as they turned around. As the gunfire continued to ring, the Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain and on the mountainside fell one after another, and soon fell in a large area, and there was no way to fight back.

The dejected Japanese tried to return fire with artillery fire, but before the muzzle of the gun could be turned around, mortar shells and grenade grenades smashed into the ground fiercely, accurately and fiercely. The explosion of many shells also caused the detonation of Japanese ammunition, and several loud noises were heard on the Japanese positions beyond recognition.

Guo Da was overjoyed and said: "General seat, look at the equipment, the 33rd Division must have arrived!" ”

Company Commander Liu said: "Then hurry up!" Headquarters, counselor, let's hurry down! ”

Wei Lihuang said: "Okay! The officers of the headquarters carried the wounded all up! ”

Liu Lian waved his hand, raised the shell gun and shouted: "Brothers, if you are not afraid of death, you will rush me, and the little devil does not have two lives!" ”

The surviving warriors followed with a shout: "Kill! "It's like a hungry tiger pounceing on a sheep and swooping down a mountain.

The Japanese army was dizzy at this time, and was no longer able to defend the mountain, plus the soldiers were desperate, and the melee fire of the submachine guns was fierce, and they rushed out of the mountain at once. Reinforcements from the lower part of the mountain also came from both flanks, and the two armies soon merged into one.

After the reinforcements arrived at Wei Lihuang and his entourage, they fired a smoke screen, so that the Japanese position was quickly covered by a smoke screen. Finally, when the smoke screen dissipated, the remnants of the Japanese army were surprised to find that the Chinese troops who had just rushed and fought had disappeared without a trace.

In the recess of the mountain not far away, the officers and soldiers of the guard company were gobbling up, and even the always elegant commander-in-chief Wei did not care about his own prestige and image, grabbed the rice balls and ate them. Since the beating guard regiment was dispersed, they have not eaten or drunk, and with the pursuit of the Japanese army one after another, they are tired and hungry, and their bodies are about to collapse. As soon as many people relaxed their spirits, they snored when they lay on the ground. Zheng Weiguo was worried that they would be sick, so he hurriedly asked the soldiers to carry them to the improvised marching bed.

Commander-in-Chief Wei took a kettle and drank it, took a breath and said, "Wei Guo, thanks to you this time!" Just now, I thought the revolution was coming to an end! ”

Zheng Weiguo smiled when he heard this, and said, "The devil hasn't been driven out of China yet, can you go and see the first prime minister!" He explained the reason for the late arrival, saying: "The Japanese army blew up all the bridges on the Fen River, and we were unable to cross the river for a while, so we finally found a place where the water was gentle and swam over." But when I arrived at the agreed place, I didn't see you, and the radio couldn't be contacted, so if I hadn't heard the gunshots, I was afraid that I wouldn't have been able to find you for a while. ”

Chief of Staff Guo said angrily: "We were originally very covert, but a traitor recognized the head seat and immediately summoned the devil!" The guard regiment was dispersed, the radio station was also broken, and it was not easy to rush to the mountain just now, and ran into a traitor leading the way, which really made people angry to death! ”

Commander-in-Chief Wei was a little embarrassed when he heard this, because he ordered the traitor to be released at that time. I didn't expect this guy to turn around and sell them.

Zheng Weiguo smashed his fist on the ground and said hatefully: "The traitor is especially hateful!" If I catch you, you have to divide the corpses of five horses! ”

After resting for a while, the troops continued to move, and unexpectedly, the haunting Japanese troops followed. Fortunately, at this time, the Eighth Route Army that came to the rescue arrived. Under the cover of the 2nd Battalion of the 5th Regiment of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army, the troops were able to settle down in the Luliang base area.

The next day, Commander-in-Chief Wei suddenly called Zheng Weiguo and said, "Wei Guo, you are knowledgeable, I want to ask you to help you get an idea." ”

Zheng Weiguo was puzzled: "Boss, what is there that you can't decide?" ”

Wei Lihuang hesitated for a moment and said: "It is extremely difficult to break through to the southeast at the moment, someone persuaded me to go around to Yan'an, what do you think?" "At present, the Japanese army controls the Fen River and the Tongpu line, and also controls the north bank of the Yellow River. Wei Lihuang and the others were almost trapped in the southwest of Jin, and it was really difficult to get to Yuanqu to join the large army, and it was too dangerous on the way.

Zheng Weiguo was startled, and thought that his relationship with the Eighth Route Army had been exposed, but seeing Wei Lihuang's expression, it didn't look like he was cheating him, so he asked tentatively: "Then it depends on what you think!" ”

Wei Lihuang said: "The Eighth Route Army is disciplined and brave in battle, I have the heart to make friends with it, and it would be great if I could go to Yan'an." It's just that the committee has a lot of prejudices against the Communist Party, and regards it as a thief, and northern Shaanxi is even more regarded as a nest of bandits, and I am worried that I will suffer from unwarranted suspicion after I go! ”

He paused for a moment and then said: "Besides, a few years ago, I was ordered to encircle and suppress Hubei, Henan, and Anhui, killing and injuring many communists. The commission is regarded as a miracle achievement, and the Jinzhai is divided into Lihuang County. Isn't this a great merit the enemy? I'm worried about ......"

Zheng Weiguo was a little puzzled, and couldn't help but say: "The humble post is just a division commander, the knowledge is shallow, and the acquaintance with you is late, why do you want to mention the humble post with these words?" ”

Wei Lihuang smiled and said: "Defending the country, you have rescued thousands of miles, needless to say, you are loyal and courageous, and you are the most trustworthy." And as the saying goes, the bystander is clear, and I want to hear from you outsiders. ”

Zheng Weiguo thought for a moment and said: "If the Kuomintang and the Communist Party can sincerely cooperate, the Japanese will definitely be defeated, and this idea of yours is very good." However, as a party commander, your every move involves a lot of things, and it is really not appropriate for you to act rashly. ”

Wei Lihuang frowned and said, "So, are you against me going to Yan'an?" ”

Zheng Weiguo smiled: "No! I support you going, but you need an opportunity! ”

Wei Lihuang said curiously: "What opportunity? ”

PS: Thank you very much for Zhang Mingming's reward, I wish you a happy life and a successful career!
