In fact, whether it is Yang Bangzi or Shimizu Dazuo, they all know one thing tacitly to each other, the reason why Guojiabaozi was besieged for more than half a month and was not captured by the Japanese army that had gathered heavily was not because the cottage was easy to defend and difficult to attack, nor how tenacious and heroic the defenders of the cottage were, there was only one real reason, Mr. Guo.

The last time he led the team to the back mountain to fight the devil's 105 artillery position, Mr. Guo called Yang Bangzi alone to explain the aftermath, which mentioned that he tried to send out several special people who came up the mountain, and Yang Bangzi also understood why the devils who surrounded the cottage did not do their best to attack the mountain.

In addition to Mr. Guo's own identity as an old man in the Republic of China, which has a great attraction to the devils, all kinds of rumors about the accumulation of gold and silver treasures in the cottage have also been handed to the ears of the devils through the mouths of some traitors.

That's why they used the method of besieging and sending lobbyists, wanting to lure down the cottage, but before the lobbyists who didn't admit the devil went up the mountain, all the special people had already entered the cottage with their own purposes, and there was another Yang stick who was captured by the prince, which disrupted the situation.

Before Yang Bangzi went up the mountain, Mr. Guo had been dealing with the deputies with their own small abacus for several days, and the traitors and the second traitors of the North China Political Affairs Committee had basically agreed to go back to persuade the devils to accept and exchange a large ransom for the conditions for letting the people go out of the mountain.

As for Chongqing, and Yan Laoxi's side are not empty-handed, so everyone is happy, and when this turmoil passes. Mr. Guo will find another opportunity to contact the upper echelons of our party. I donated my property. This is considered a complete merit.

There is also Mr. Guo said that his time is running out, and it is by no means an empty area, since the beginning of spring, his old man has coughed up blood many times, noon and midnight these two time periods, and often shortness of breath, chest tightness, sweating, pulse phase is urgent and slow, stagnation is weak. To put it bluntly, it is almost time to run out of oil and run out of lights, and it is useless to adjust and treat.

His daughter, that Miss Guo, was found by him through our party, but he closed his eyes and swallowed his breath, such a girl can't pick up the beam.

Miss Guo didn't know that her old father was about to die, but she only heard him talk about wanting to find a reliable Balu to take over the cottage, so she strongly recommended Yang Bangzi, saying that this Yang Bangzi could fight a war. How can you control your subordinates, and how can you follow him with peace of mind. Anyway, it's all good words.

Therefore, Mr. Guo sent a personal guard to escort his daughter down the mountain to find Yang Bangzi for help, which is equivalent to using the cottage to surround Yang Bangzi to see if this Eight Roads is like what his daughter said.

Such an investigation, from the housekeeper under his instruction, led Yang Bangzi to the small courtyard where the fan head lived, every move of this eight roads was in the eyes of the old village owner, it turned out that Yang Bangzi was a military commander who was not lustful and not greedy for money, and Mr. Guo was relieved to hand over the cottage to him.

"Fighting a war and killing devils is the business of your young people, and engaging in politics is the business of the elderly, and playing politics can no longer stop the devils from destroying our heart, so we have to rely on you young people to drive the devils away." This is what Mr. Guo Lao Zuihou and Yang Bangzi said.

Now that the representatives have gone down the mountain, and the prince has also been handed over to his cronies, Yang Bangzi estimates that the devil will not be so good-tempered when he comes back this time.

Shimizu Dazuo did come with his breath, he always thought that Maki Dasa and they didn't storm because they didn't want to hurt the prince, and when he learned through Tegaoke that the imperial army was still bargaining with this man, persuading and asking for money was a shame for Shimizu to hear this kind of news!

At this point, he also understood the reason why thousands of imperial soldiers had been sleeping around the cottage for more than half a month, and it was to satisfy the greed of the senior officers, and he was furious! What is there to be angry about, every time the little devils occupied a place, the first thing they did was to loot property on a large scale, from officers to soldiers without exception, they were all interested in gold, silver and jewelry, and the entire Japanese war machine was eager to scrape China's land up to three layers, and the whole ship of wagons was pulled into Japan to pull Chinese things!

Qing Shui did not hesitate to gamble on his future in the army for this, and dared to ask for an order from General Gangcun to personally lead someone to erase Guojiabao from the map!

After a short fight in the field in the first round, neither side could touch the bottom of the opponent, and Yang Bangzi roughly judged that the strength of the devil was more than a brigade, and the exact number was not clear.

Shimizu Dazuo is the same, when he was taken to the cottage, he followed more than a hundred eight roads, and when he first arrived at the cottage, he judged that there were about three or four hundred regular eight roads here, and there may be about three or four hundred paramilitary liliang such as the militia of the eight roads.

Judging from the battle that took place in the back mountain heard from the hut where he was imprisoned, the Eighth Road did not have any heavy weapons, so he was confident that with the excellent mountain combat soldiers of the Suzuki detachment and the over-allocated heavy firepower, he should be able to completely destroy Guojiabaozi.

It was this self-confidence that prompted him to give the order to attack during the day, the sound of guns and cannons at Nanyakou did not weaken at all, it seemed that the resistance of the Eighth Road had caused a lot of trouble to his subordinates, Qing Shui looked at the soldiers who were struggling to approach the top of Dongshan Liang, and a trace of guilt passed in his heart for attacking the troops at Nanyakou.

Climb to the halfway up the mountain, there is no movement at the top of the mountain beam, climb to three-fifths of the way, still no movement, less than 30 meters from the top of the mountain beam, still no movement! Qing Shui Dazuo was very confused, the eight roads can't be paralyzed to this point, the east barrier of the cottage is not guarded!

Finally, a row of gunshots rang out on the mountain beam, and the black smoke after the grenade explosion made by the Eighth Road base also bloomed on the hillside, and this time Qing Shui breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the Eighth Road played cards according to common sense, if it was successfully occupied Dongshan Liang, then Qing Shui would have to wonder if the Eighth Road was set again.

It took two days for the Maki Wing to take the Dongshan Liang, and it is said that it was still relied on the heavy artillery bombardment and the active retreat of the defenders in the cottage to capture the mountain beam, which was like an arm in front of the cottage, which was difficult to cross.

The Morita squadron that took the lead was all the most expert mountaineers in the Suzuki detachment, and they could go up where the goats could go, but as soon as they approached the top of the mountain beam, they were either put down by a cold gun or bombarded by the fragments of a grenade.

After two strong attacks, Morita's squadron was pressed halfway up the mountain and couldn't attack, Shimizu Daisa kept watching the battle on the mountain beam with a telescope, and when he saw that the second attack was repulsed, he put down the binoculars and said to the adjutant beside him, waving the flag to make the troops on the hillside detour to both sides, and the artillery team covered the entire mountain beam with firepower.

Mountain artillery, field artillery, and mortars poured shells on the bare mountain beams, and the earth and rocks that had been crushed and collapsed rolled down the hillside in a crushing manner, and the bombardment lasted for fifteen minutes, and as soon as the shelling stopped, Morita's squadron, which had already moved to the two wings, quickly launched a third assault on the mountain beams!

In the direction of Nanyakou, the gunfire had stopped, and the adjutant came to report that the 3rd Squadron had occupied Nanyakou, most of the Eighth Route defending Nanyakou had been annihilated, and a small number of remnants of the enemy had retreated to the peak along the mountain beam.

Shimizu held a telescope and watched the figures of the Morita squadron soldiers on the hillside, and when these soldiers disappeared into the smoke and dust that had not yet dissipated on the mountain beam, he told the adjutant to inform the third squadron to defend on the spot.

Two white plaster flags were erected on the top of the mountain beam, and in the lens of the telescope, Qing Shui read the flag, "The position on the top of the mountain has been occupied, and the remnants of the enemy have retreated without a trace." ”

With a sigh of relief, okay, the perimeter of Guojiabao was opened, Qing Shui turned his head and said to the adjutant, notify all departments, cross the mountain beam, and start an offensive formation in the valley in front of the cottage.

The second round of the Eight Roads and the Devil is basically over, and the losses on both sides are not too much, the two Devils have injured more than 60 people in total, and on the Eight Roads side, 15 people have been sacrificed, and more than 30 people have been lightly and seriously injured, and the two sides are not too much different.

To say that the devil has a slight upper hand, after all, he took the two exits of the cottage and controlled the periphery, and the entire cottage is now exposed to the devil's artillery fire.

The troops of the 110th Division are good at plain defensive warfare, and they are basically laymen in mountain warfare, and the soldiers climb to the top of the mountain to consume almost their physical strength, and they almost have no combat effectiveness when they attack, so it took two days to take Dongshanliang.

An expert in mountain warfare in Shimizu City, this shot was different, and with the fact that these mountaineers of the Morita squadron also worked hard, it took less than an hour to break through the position of the Eighth Road. (To be continued......)
