Erlong Mountain, Panshi Village.

Xu Shijiu sent Shu Tongwen and the seal to the mountain pass, and said, "Awen, Lao Hai, you see it's dark this day, why don't you stay for one night before leaving?" ”

"Captain, I'm really out of time." Shu Tongwen waved his hand and said, "Lao Liang is urging so urgently, there must be something important." ”

"What else is important, it must be Tang Lao Plague or Shangguan Yunxiang's side again." The seal snorted and said, "The troops in the three theaters, whether it is the Central Army or the Sichuan Army, I really didn't say that they would collapse in the face of small Japan, but in the face of our New Fourth Army, they immediately came to the strength, and the military department issued an order not to do anything, otherwise, Lao Tzu can overturn one of their divisions with a regiment, hum, something." ”

"Okay, Lao Hai, don't complain." Shu Tongwen persuaded the seal, and said to Xu Shijiu, "Captain, then we will go, and you can go back too." ”

Xu Shijiu waved his hand and said, "That's okay, be careful on the road." ”

"It's okay, isn't it just a blockade line, but if you want to block me and Lao Hai, it's wishful thinking." As he spoke, the guards had already come over with torches, and Shu Tongwen and the seal took the torches from the guards and turned to leave.

Seeing Shu Tongwen and the seal disappear into the mountain col, Xu Shijiu turned around and returned to the headquarters, and as soon as he entered the gate, Yang Dashu, the commander of the guard battalion, hurriedly walked in from the outside, reporting that the Japanese army in Lijiazhen suddenly moved.

"Li Jiazhen?" Xu Shijiu immediately came to the map with a gas lamp, staring at the map and muttering.

Yang Dashu followed to the map, and then said: "Commander, the little Japanese unusually transferred troops in the direction of Lijiazhen in the middle of the night, and must have no good intentions?" ”

Xu Shijiu slowly slid over the map, and finally stopped at Huangyangao in the middle of Lijiazhen and Panshizhai, Huangyangao is the 4th regiment defense area, if the Japanese army in Lijiazhen attacks Erlong Mountain, Huangyangao will inevitably bear the brunt.

At that moment, Xu Shijiu put the gas lamp back on the table, grabbed the armed belt from the table, and said while piercing his body: "Go, go to Huangyang Pass." ”

As soon as he left the headquarters, he saw Gao Shenxing and his party from the 5th Brigade, and Xu Shijiu asked, "Old Gao, are you going?" ”

Gao Shenxing looked at Li Mu behind him and said, "Little Japan has been making a lot of fun recently, and our 5th Brigade plans to go to the terracotta and pull out the turrets of Little Japan over there." ”

Xu Shijiu didn't say anything, he knew that Gao Shenxing wanted to relieve Li Mu's mood, so he stepped forward and patted Li Mu on the shoulder, and said, "Go ahead, kill all the little Japan in the terracotta turret, and don't let anyone go." ”

Seeing the nine members of the 5th Brigade and the military dog Lao Hei disappear into the night, Xu Jiujiu suddenly turned back to Yang Dashu and said: "Dashu, as soon as the 5th Brigade leaves, the vigilance of Panshizhai will be weakened, and the guard battalion will not go to Huangyang'ao, you can just send a squad to follow me." ”

After the guard battalion suffered a heavy blow in Yanjia Town, it did not replenish its troops in time, and it is still only one company of troops, and now the 5th Brigade has left, if the guard battalion leaves again, then the entire Panshi Village will only be left with non-combatants from the arsenal and the field hospital, and once it is attacked, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Commander, what's that going on?" Yang Dashu didn't think so, "The duty of our guard battalion is to protect your safety, commander, where you go, our guard battalion will get it, besides, Panshi Village is hidden in Erlong Mountain, how can it be attacked by Little Japan?" ”

"Alright, that's it, you send a class with me." Xu Shijiu couldn't help but say and gave an order.

"Yes." Yang Dashu had no choice but to accept the order.

Owara Shigemi raised his right hand and clenched it into a fist, and the special combat team members who followed behind him squatted down one after another, and the spearhead group in charge of the guard quickly dispersed at the first time, and the fire support team also quickly seized a favorable position.

It must be admitted that the Owara brigade is really a well-trained elite.

The night march is not a joke, no matter how experienced the veteran, it may also get lost at night, especially the Ohara brigade has never been to Erlong Mountain before, the Ohara brigade relied on a map provided by the enemy's inner line, a compass, and drew a interspersed curve from the map, and drove straight into the vicinity of Panshi Village.

But now, Shigemi Ohara must reconfirm his bearings.

As soon as the "map" Ohara Shigemi spread his hands, some special combat team members quickly stepped forward.

In a few moments, a tent was erected, and the adjutant with the map went into the tent to spread out the map and turned on the flashlight.

Ohara Shigemi put his head into the tent, and the adjutant had already found the current possible location from the map, pointed to the map and said: "Captain, I just checked the terrain, we should be roughly in this position at present, and there are still more than ten kilometers away from Panshi Village, where the headquarters of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army in southern Anhui is located."

"What do you mean by should, roughly?" Ohara Shigemi said unhappily.

"Hello." The adjutant bowed and said, "Captain, the location at night is difficult to identify. ”

"Alright, I don't want to hear that." Ohara Shigemi took out her pocket watch and said, "It's one o'clock in the morning, and there are still about four hours before dawn. ”

Before the words fell, a sharp crow suddenly came from outside, the adjutant quickly turned off the flashlight, and Ohara Shigemi also quickly got out of the tent, and under the moonlight, a special combat member of the Elite Group hurriedly ran back from the front, and reported in a low voice: "Captain, there is a situation ahead." ”

Ohara Shigemi raised his right hand and pressed it forward, and the special combat team members who were resting on the spot got up one after another, and Ohara Shigemi also buckled the steel helmet back on his head and bent down into the bushes in front of him.

Sneaking forward less than 100 meters, Ohara Shigemi spotted the other two members of the Elite Group.

At this time, although it was early in the morning, but the bright moon hung alone in the sky, by the moonlight, you could still see the hazy mountain color clearly, dozens of meters away, the leader of the spearhead team gestured to Ohara Shigemi continuously: it means that an unknown armed force was found on the mountain road ahead, with a total of six people, two short guns, and four long guns.

It didn't take long for the team reported by the Spearhead Group to appear in Shigemi Ohara's field of vision.

In the hazy night, there were six people walking at night with torches, four of them carrying rifles, and the other two carrying twenty box guns. ”

"What hands?" Ohara Shigemi said angrily, "Although there are still more than ten kilometers away from Panshi Village, who knows if there is a sentry post of the Zhina Army nearby?" In case the target is exposed in advance, don't think about what you will gain when you go to Panshi Village, Amuro Naisan, you always remember that as soon as the gun goes out, we will never have a chance. ”

"Hello." Amuro bowed heavily, then watched as the six men walked by at close range.

These six people were none other than Shu Tongwen and Seal, who returned to the station overnight, and the two of them didn't know that they had already walked back and forth from the line of death.

Sitting in the passenger cab of the truck, Shingen Hattori let out a long yawn.

Looking out through the car window, you can see the faint mountains, like a giant beast, crouching under the sky, making people feel inexplicably uneasy, and occasionally there are beams of snowy lights piercing the darkness, which brought Hattori a little psychological comfort, inexplicably, Hattori felt a little uneasy, and immediately ordered the driver to stop.

Hattori's truck was in the middle of the entire convoy, and as soon as his car stopped, the entire convoy stopped.

A moment later, the deputy of the 59th Independent Infantry Brigade, Captain Kameda, rushed over with a saber and asked, "Captain, why don't you stop?" ”

Hattori took off his white gloves, rubbed his cheeks that were a little cold with his hands, and asked, "Kameda-san, where is this?" ”

Captain Kameda hurriedly asked the map soldier to take out the map and spread it out on the hood of the truck, and then asked the guard to turn on the flashlight and look up the map for a moment before coming over to report to Hattori: "Captain, it should be almost to Huangyang'ao." ”

"Yellow Sheep Ao, Yellow Sheep Ao?" Hattori pondered for a moment, then suddenly ordered, "Order, the troops rest in place." ”

"Rest in place?" Kameda was puzzled, "Captain, the brigade commander's order is to attack Huangyangao, attract the main force of the anti-Japanese salvation army in southern Anhui, and create an opportunity for the Ohara Brigade to surprise attack Panshizhai, but now it is still a few miles away from Huangyangao." ”

Hattori didn't explain, but asked rhetorically, "Kameda-san, how long has it been since we marched into Lijia Town and then marched here?" ”

Kameda replied without hesitation: "When we started from Yanjia Town, it was eight o'clock in the evening, and now the time is two o'clock in the morning, and six hours have passed in between. ”

"Have you ever thought about it, how many things can be done in six hours?" Hattori said, "Maybe the Southern Anhui Anti-Japanese Salvation Army has opened its pockets in front, just waiting for us to drill into it, I don't want to touch this mold, besides, this operation, it is the new Ohara Brigade singing the leading role, we can't play with our lives." ”
