No matter what the reason for staying in the town, it is still a person, even if it is a livestock, and it can't be treated so inhumanely! Not to mention a living person!

Faced with the stumps and severed arms pulled out of the ashes, and the piles of black charcoal scorching corpses, everyone was furious! At this time, if anyone tries to stop them from taking revenge, they will be torn to shreds!

There is still someone standing in the way of these folks with fire in their eyes!

"Folks! Listen to me! Hong Mei spread her arms wide and stood in front of the villagers who were clucking with their teeth.

"This revenge must be avenged! The blood debt must be doubled by the devil! Folks! Calm down! You can't fall into the trap of devils again! Look at the villagers who died in Hexi Village! Before the revenge was avenged, it was sacrificed in vain! Folks! Don't mess around at this time! ”

"Commissar! People are dying like this! Don't be happy to fight with the dog's day! You dodge! We don't embarrass you! Some of the villagers shouted at the top of their voices, and many people echoed the voice, and the crowd began to rush forward again, and the noise made the fire look like it was about to push Hong Mei aside!

"Fellows! Folks! I understand your feelings, and I can't wait to tear the devil apart! Please believe me! Believe in our Eighth Route Army! Don't mess around at this time! Hong Mei was in a hurry, jumped onto a section of the burned black whirring broken wall, pulled out her revolver, brandished it and shouted loudly.

Lao Feng and the others also squeezed over and formed a human wall with cadres in several districts to block the flow of people who wanted to take revenge.

But Hongmei's voice, some of the people behind didn't understand, many of them originally belonged to the town of Zomayi, and with the Eighth Road transferred into the mountains to help fight the devils, they watched the devils burn down their houses and destroy their hard-earned homes, and they were going to explode in their chests with the devils desperately!

These people stubbornly squeezed forward, anxious to catch up with the retreating devils, such a hug, the front heard Hong Mei's dissuasion, and the stopped crowd was driven forward again, Lao Feng and a few of them were about to be unable to stop the crowd!

"Smack! Syllable! The gun in Hong Mei's hand rang out, and it was a gun released at the sky. Hearing the gunshot, thousands of villagers subconsciously stopped and looked at the female political commissar standing on the low wall in surprise.

The crowd stopped, Hong Mei breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately called the cadres from the countryside one by one, and asked the cadres from each village to take away the people in their own townships, first put out the fire, and then search for any survivors, and try to rescue some furniture and things that have not been burned.

The acquaintances and cadres at the door of their own house still worked, even coaxing and dragging, and piles of fellow villagers were scattered, putting out the fire, looking for people in the ruins, and picking up objects.

Hong Mei wiped the sweat from her forehead, jumped off the low wall, and immediately had a meeting with several members of the special committee, plus Lao Feng.

The meeting lasted only 10 minutes, and everyone was united in their thinking and made unified decisions; except for Hong Mei, the other members of the special committee stayed in the Horse Station, organized the masses well, and could not move blindly or return to their hometowns without authorization.

Hong Mei and Lao Feng led the militia and some of the villagers who could fight, divided into east and west, followed the direction of the devil's withdrawal, caught up, and acted at the opportunity. At the same time, several fast-legged communicators were sent to find Yang Bangzi and the independent brigade.

After the arrangement, the big guys acted separately, and 20 minutes later, the first batch of teams chasing devils were assembled, and Lao Feng led more than 200 people to set off along the avenue. Later, Hong Mei also led about 100 people to follow the mountain beam in the west and cut into the path, wanting to take the mountain road to go around to the devil.

In the rolling mountains of northwest Hebei, the soldiers of the 72nd Wing lined up in three columns, advanced on the highway at the speed of a rapid march, and came out of the horse post.

Iizhao Dazuo didn't think so with a gloomy face, he, the main wing of the Fourth Mixed Brigade, had never fought such a battle since he took over as the captain of the wing!

Since being assigned to the 33rd Division in February, doom seems to have followed the 72nd Wing. After the 33rd Division fought the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, after leaving a wing to garrison, it was transferred to the northwest of Hebei by Okamura Ninji to prepare for the public security war in North China, and in order to supplement the combat effectiveness of the division, the 72nd Wing was seconded from the 4th Mixed Brigade.

If you transfer it, you can transfer it over, but the task that the wing received is neither to fight with the large corps, nor to search and suppress the Eighth Road independently, but to be the garrison task that Iizhao despises the most, or to build roads and artillery towers in the base area of the Eighth Road! These are all the tasks of those second- and third-line troops! was disturbed by the Tubalu every day, and Fan Zhao held his breath for more than half a year!

This time, let Tu Balu withdraw from the horse post in a gray manner, and Fan Zhao really couldn't swallow this breath! He originally asked to stay in the Horse Station, and asked the division and the North China Dispatch Army to provide air force support, and he wanted to have a good fight with the Eighth Road! However, the division and the Beiping side ignored his demands at all, and repeatedly urged him to retreat to Laiyuan.

Looking at the bare hills around him, Iizhao was so angry that he felt uncomfortable riding on a horse, he ripped open his collar and loosened the buttons of his two shirts, hoping that the cool mountain breeze would blow away the feeling of heat.

He immediately looked at the map and asked the officer of the Imperial Association Army who led the team, saying that there were more than two miles ahead to Qinglonggou, and the map of 1/50,000 of the place name in the hand of Fan Zhao was marked.

The road from the horse post is divided into two strands in front of Qinglonggou, one stretches diagonally to Lingqiu City in the northwest direction, one turns to the northeast, passes through Woquegou after passing Qinglonggou, reaches Yinfang Town, and then leads to Laiyuan City.

The two roads to their respective ends, the distance is about the same, but, in the northwest of Qinglonggou Xiangshang, there is a large group of devil rescue troops from Lingqiu waiting to respond, they have come out of Lingqiu for many days, it is little by little and the eight roads to attack here, now from the map, the two troops are less than 10 miles apart.

And the bombing of the Air Force bombers in the early morning also happened to end at the Qinglonggou line, and then they were afraid of accidentally injuring the Lingqiu troops. Fan Zhao handed the map in his hand to the adjutant next to him, and ordered the brigade to stop after arriving at Qinglonggou and rest for a while.

In fact, Iiaki did not know what the intention of the North China Army to urge him to retreat was so much, and the Imperial Japanese Army was fighting on Chinese mainland, and this kind of tactics of a unit going deep behind enemy lines, entangling the Shina Army to the death, attracting heavy troops from the other side to besiege it, and encircling the central area by various units on the outer front, was not used for the first time.

The most recent Battle of Nakajo Mountain was this kind of interspersed into the enemy's rear, and then surrounded by groups, each of which broke the Chinese Nationalist Army. Iiaki knew very well that the strength of his wing was fully capable of this kind of central flowering tactic, but unfortunately he didn't know one thing, that is, the army headquarters had already ordered Jihua to fight south, and the 33rd Division was going to be used in South Asia.

Therefore, after the completion of the first phase of the North China sweep, the 33rd Division must quickly withdraw from the wide sweeping front, hand over the task of the second stage of the search and suppression to other units, and then rearm and head south. The 72nd Wing of the 4th Mixed Brigade was about to be transferred to the defense area of the 214th Wing.

This military secret was only known to a very small number of high-ranking army generals, so Fan Zhao's request for war was also put aside, how could the imperial army, which was already overstretched, put a few thousand people in remote mountainous areas?

The morning sun shone warmly in the valley, and Iiaki sat on the mazar and enjoyed a short leisure. The captain of the forward team came to ask for instructions on the direction of the next march, and reported that the search team sent out had found eight roads in the mountains on both sides leading to Lingqiu.

The squinting Rice Zhao didn't think about it, and immediately gave an order after listening to the report, and all the Imperial Cooperative Army and a small squad of Japanese soldiers escorted the cart carrying the wounded to attack and advance along the road in the direction of Lingqiu, and went to join the brigade that came to the rescue. The remaining Japanese soldiers carried their baggage, transferred to Qinglonggou, and went to Yinfang Town!

The devil puppet army on the highway began to act separately, and the militiamen lying on the hill were a little confused, watching the devil team on the road below the mountain divided into two groups, one group wearing devil military uniforms and dozens of people wearing puppet army uniforms, driving the cart and slowly going to Shuibao Township.

The rest are all wearing pseudo-army uniforms, and they turned into Qinglonggou in one go, where are they going? Silverfang? Which team of devils are you going to? These militiamen who survived the bombing just now don't know what to do.

Seeing that the devils on the two roads had been separated, several cadres who led the team decided to try their best to intercept the devils who were walking with the wounded soldiers.

Just as I was about to set off, a letter came from the ravine, saying that someone had come from the side of the horse post! It's none other than Hong Mei who rushed over the mountains and mountains.

Without taking a breath, after listening to the reports of the local cadres and militiamen, Hong Mei thought about it for a while, and immediately decided that her team and the local militia would rush to the defensive section of Shuibao Township as quickly as possible, preparing to intercept the devils under the mountain, otherwise they would go so easily to join the devils who came to the rescue.

Hong Mei also sent a liaison to inform Lao Feng's team of the decision, so that they could act on their own. After making a decision, he led the people down the ravine again without touching the ground!

Lao Feng and the others are not far away, they are almost to Qinglonggou, they met the liaison who came to report the news, after listening to Hong Mei's notice, Lao Feng always felt unsteady, and today's devil's actions are a little weird.

At least when the formation was set off, it was different from the past, and now I heard the liaison officer say that the puppet army drilled the Qinglong ditch, and the devil went to Shuibao Township with the wounded soldiers. What did he think was wrong, Lao Feng decided to take dozens of people to Qinglonggou to have a look, and let the liaison take the rest to join Hong Mei, there were devils on both sides there, and the pressure was high and manpower was needed.

Fortunately, there was no devil's plane on his head at this time, and he didn't have so many scruples when he ran, Lao Feng took the lead, ran all the way with a shell gun, and followed the highway to enter Qinglonggou Not far away, the yellow military uniform of the Imperial Association Army flashed on the mountain road in front.

At this time, a rapid gunfire suddenly sounded from the northwest direction, mixed with a dull explosion, Lao Feng estimated that Shuibao Township did it, he didn't stop, made a gesture to signal the team members behind him to follow him up the mountain, and went around to the front of the devil after sticking to the mountain beam!

The northwest direction did do it, but it wasn't Hongmei and the devils who had fought each other, it was the devil brigade from the direction of Lingqiu who suddenly began to rush south along the road, and exchanged fire with the local troops who intercepted them.

Hong Mei also heard the sound of gunfire and cannons, and the black smoke rising from the valley in front of her could be seen clearly, and she ordered to speed up the march, suddenly! A figure came out from behind the big boulder next to the mountain road, and grabbed her wrist with one hand!
