It was the safety of hundreds of brothers and sisters of the class, the deep affection of the people's army, the government, and the people, and the serious responsibility of the people's army to cover the people's anti-Japanese government and the masses of the people from danger.

According to the law of guerrilla warfare and the law of warfare in which our army and people are outnumbered by the enemy, the time to break through the encirclement should be to avoid daytime and choose to do so at night. In the dark night, under the cover of night, it is convenient to jump out of the enemy's joint attack circle in close proximity to the enemy, to carry forward the characteristics of our army's close combat and night combat, and to attack the enemy unprepared......

However, the sky was already light, and the opportunity was lost, so I had to hold on and wait for another night to come.

As everyone knows, sticking to the backup and waiting for the breakthrough are both serious situations, both are passive battles, and they both have to pay the price of blood.

The winter fog was blown away by the northwest wind, and the sun peeked out in the clouds, shining on the colorful Yimeng Mountains in winter, and the soldiers and civilians who were besieged in this mountainous area greeted each other, encouraged each other, and were busy preparing to meet the crazy attack of the inevitable enemy.

Looking around on the high mountain, I saw the enemy's banner waving, and the follow-up troops came in a steady stream. It seems that the enemy has surrounded this place and is building fortifications layer by layer, consolidating positions, and fighting steadily. From the enemy's disposition, it can be inferred that the enemy's assumption is that the opponent has been surrounded, and the tighter and tighter the besieged position, the greater and greater the certainty of victory. It is better to fight calmly than to risk a hasty attack.

Everywhere in the Yimeng Mountains, both the enemy and the enemy are busy building fortifications. The enemy's fortifications at the foot of the mountain were to prevent our troops from breaking out of the encirclement. The fortifications of our army on the hill were prepared to resist the enemy's onslaught at all odds.

The enemy's fortifications at the foot of the hill were ready, and the follow-up troops followed. The day began in the early afternoon, when the enemy began to compress the encirclement. The enemy's planes cooperated with the artillery to bombard indiscriminately, the shells whistled, and puffs of black smoke rose from the ravines and ravines. In accordance with the principle of guerrilla warfare in which "the enemy advances and we retreat," at four o'clock in the afternoon, Longsugu once again stepped into the enemy's iron hooves.

The telephone station where Gu Mu was located once again became a telephone station for the enemy. Friend and foe are just a valley apart. You don't need a boat or a bridge to cross this small river, you only need to cross a few stepping stones in the rapids. All the members of the telephone station were working with vigilance.

Gu Mu was on duty, his big eyes hidden deep in the sockets of his eyes, dripping with flames. The swarthy face flushed red. Without blinking, he watched his comrades pull out the latch and report the enemy situation and answer questions in a continuous and concise manner. For example, there is a Q&A like this:

"How far are you?"

"In front of you."

"Do you see the enemy?"

"Visible! Even the enemy's guns and weapons can be seen! I just don't know who called the turtle king bastard! ”

"It's time for you to move, right?"

"It's time to move, it's not the time."

The enemy patrolled around the new dragon and was clearly visible. The flying cannonballs blew up the crocks at the corner of the street and knocked down the small trees in front of the door. Flying machine-gun bullets chirped through the air, as if an invisible rapids had been added to the air.

Minister Gu didn't seem to hear any of these voices, only the voice on the phone. If some people still don't understand how the word "composed" is interpreted, they don't need to look up the dictionary, they don't need to go to class, they don't need to ask teachers and friends, they just need to look at the attitude of Gu Mu's work, and they can fully understand the broad and profound meaning of the word "composed".

Minister Gu's spirit of perseverance in his work was outstanding, he sat firmly on his duty seat, and as long as the enemy did not set foot in the gate of the small courtyard, as long as the enemy could not grasp his cuffs, he continued to work with full concentration. Striving to report a little more about the enemy's situation, to answer one more question, and to increase the deafness and brightness of our army's command headquarters by a single cent, is the achievement and victory of our work. He believed that the setting up of telephone stations in the anti-Japanese base areas was the right time to play its role at this moment, and that the full significance of the role of the eyes and ears was here.

The back door of the telephone station to the hillside was completely open. The bricks and stones on the hillside passage leading to the back door have long been swept away by the small pier. On the way uphill, there is also a rope tied to the pine trees, which can help you climb quickly when the situation is urgent.

On the back slope of this mountain, there is an observation post of our Eighth Route Army, where Jiliu and two militiamen are secretly looking forward. The enemy's activities along the edge of Longsugu can be seen in full view, and with a little synthesis, it can be turned into information conveyed by the telephone operator next to Minister Gu. As long as the enemy did not enter this mountain village, Song Jiliu and the others were determined not to interfere with Minister Tiegu in any way, so that they could spread the enemy's situation continuously.

Qi Wanhong was observing and waiting in the courtyard. He is the reserve hand of Minister Gu. The enemy situation is urgent, and they can help the telephone operator to pack up the telephone and cooperate with each other to climb the back mountain.

Xiang Xiaodun was next to the concealment post, and grasped a small poplar tree with withered branches and leaves, which was a common "news tree" for the people in the base areas behind enemy lines. As long as the tree is not brought down, the militia on the village will make great efforts to bury the mines more delicately and camouflage them more cleverly.

At this time, the militiamen joked: "The Japanese devils have traveled thousands of miles across the ocean to come to the mountain villa, they are uninvited guests, they are uninvited guests, they are ghostly, and they can't help but be thoughtful when they invite them to eat mine watermelon." Whether they are frightened birds of guerrilla warfare or fish that have slipped through the net of mine warfare, as long as they enter the mountain villa, they will not be spared. ”

The militia captain came and went up and down the hill like a shuttle, and he was arranging, supervising, and inspecting all the work of dealing with the enemy in the villa.

Under the extremely serious situation of the enemy, Wang Hanqing, secretary of the Yishui County Party Committee, and Li Guanyi, the county magistrate, suddenly came to the villa. Without waiting for everyone to speak, Li Guanyi, the county magistrate, took the lead and said:

"You are all young people, and I have grown up from young people year by year. No one will stop not growing long! Don't bully me for being old, don't drive me away first, and don't look down on me. ”

"Then we'll compare!" Song Jiliu said with a smile.

"If you want to run, I can race against you, and I can't find me in any of you. I came, first, to be Han Qing's companion. Second, let's take a look at the comrades at the telephone station of the United Front Work Department, learn from their work spirit, and learn from their calm energy! If any of you want to drive me away, you won't let me learn from the Eighth Route Army. ”

The words of the county magistrate Li Guanyi caused a burst of laughter

Wang Hanqing, secretary of the Yishui County Party Committee, said: "Don't drive the old county magistrate away, and don't drive me away. Fight with the enemy in the same way as the officers and soldiers. I am the secretary of the Yishui County Party Committee here, and I have the responsibility to visit the militia comrades. Tell the comrades that your family members have been inspected by the old county magistrate and scattered and hidden, and that they have brought enough food and drink, so don't worry about it, and prepare for war wholeheartedly to protect our telephone station. ”

The arrival of Wang Hanqing and Li Guanyi increased the ambition and prestige of this villa facing the enemy. They didn't have a few men, no machine guns, no small cannons. They had little combat power, and each carried only a short gun and a few grenades. However, this gave people a great encouragement and enhanced people's fighting mood, which is a strange force that is common on the battlefield but cannot be explained for a while.

Step by step, the enemy compresses towards the main peak of Longsugu. Before the sun set, the enemy crossed the river beach and swooped down on the valley minister on three sides. Amid the sound of grenades and mines, and the shouts of the enemy, Minister Gu, Captain Song, and all the personnel of the telephone station walked out of the back door and climbed the hillside, and together with the militia brigade, they moved along a winding valley path to a large ridge under the main peak.

This ridge is the southern gateway to the main peak. Crossing the ridge is the main peak of this ridge. Under the big ridge, the artillery fire was continuous, and the smoke of gunpowder was filled.

This is the main peak that stands out among the mountains. It is made up of some steep mountains. It sits north and south, surrounded by a small hilltop flatland.
