The small basin naturally forms a half-moon shape, and just north of the edge of the basin stands a high-flying peak. This small flat land on the top of the mountain is actually not flat, it is composed of countless acres of fields, rocks, and terraced fields. On these acres, rocks, and terraces, there are various fruit trees and wild plants such as peaches, plums, apricots, and pears.

In addition, all kinds of colorful birds and small beasts are infested, which makes this place more complicated and infinitely profound and mysterious. Immediately close to the cliff, there is also a small temple connected to a stone cave. On weekdays, there is an old Taoist priest named Wisdom here, who pretends to meditate and cultivate under the shade of a tree all day long.

There is also a tube of engraved bamboo sticks for people to make divination. Lao Daoping said to people every day that if he has repaired the Tao, he can be as invulnerable as iron and stone. But when he heard the sound of gunfire, he had already hid in the most secret cave like a timid yellow-eyed crab.

The Shandong sub-bureau dispatched troops to guard the dangerous mountain passes at various levels. These troops resisted the continuous onslaught of the enemy all day long. The government offices under their cover and more than 600 people gathered on a hilltop Xiaoping Mountain. From time to time, the government and the masses have sent representatives to support, encourage, and comfort the soldiers who are fighting against danger.

The fierce and tenacious resistance was fought all day. The indiscriminate bombardment of enemy planes was also carried out throughout the day.

Many fruit trees were blown down, and the birds fled in fright. The towing charming radio station was also damaged by the bomb. Later, night finally came, and the gunfire became sparse. At this time, the main bee looked down the mountain, but saw that the fire was bright and extinguished, and it was continuous. From the foot of Longxugu Mountain to the ravine more than ten miles away, a huge surrounding pottery array with layers of irregular layers was formed.

These fires were used by the enemy to warn our troops to go beyond the encirclement. It is conceivable that some of the fires are ambushing the enemy, and some of the fires may be the enemy's false suspicions. The Shandong Sub-Bureau and the government organs and masses under its cover have lost the opportunity to break through last night, and they must seize the opportunity to break through tonight. If the opportunity to break through tonight is lost again, the war situation after dawn will be serious and difficult.

But where should the direction of the breakthrough be chosen? Which ravine is the weak link of the enemy's defenses?

Fang Xiao and all the personnel of the reconnaissance platoon were sent out one after another, but they still did not come back until nine or ten o'clock at night. The accurate and reliable breakout route was difficult to split for a while.

Zhu Rui and his staff officers repeatedly analyzed the enemy's situation: From which direction is it advantageous to break out of the enemy's "iron wall"? Which direction is the weak link of the enemy's defense? It hadn't been finalized until eleven o'clock in the evening.

Minister Gu, the Song team, members of the Japanese anti-war army, and Nakaguchi, a soldier of our Eighth Route Army, followed the troops and climbed the main peak of this great mountain. They witnessed dozens of miles of bright fire extinguishing piles under the mountain. I understand the mood of all the military and civilians in choosing the direction of the breakthrough. Gu Mu was anxious and eagerly sought conditions to start the work of the telephone station and communicate with the outside world.

The working point of the telephone station that had been presupposed to be here was blown up by enemy aircraft, and even the remaining wiring lines were difficult to find. In order to be the eyes and ears of our army's command organs in a critical situation, and to enable the soldiers and civilians who were besieged here to get instructions to get out of the siege victoriously, Minister Gu and others had no choice but to return to the place where they had just left.

It is the southern choke point that leads to. It is a mountainside position that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It has been in smoke since the early afternoon. Its rocks and trees were densely packed through enemy bullets, and in some places there were traces of blood from white-knuckle combat. Now, although it is in the hands of our troops, it is a place where the enemy's guns and bullets are flying.

Gu Mu and the others quietly groped their way to the old location, and stopped under a small cliff pond to find a hidden route. Indeed, there is a dangerous route that passes through the rocky gaps, over the valleys, and into the distance. During the war years, such wires were called flying wires.

This kind of flying line appears in the sky between the cliffs, and sometimes the silver filaments shine back due to the sunshine, as if the autumn silk flying in the sky in the autumn fields in the north. As for Autumn Silk, people in the countryside say that it is an eagle that travels in space, and it is weathered because it flies too high. But the silver flying threads were created by human hands.

At that time, under the condition of a complete lack of scientific machinery behind enemy lines, relying on manpower to erect this kind of flying line, looking up at it, how amazing the ingenuity of the telephone soldiers of the Eighth Route Army!

Minister Gu and others were looking for flying lines in the mountains and forests that could connect to the outside. Originally, this kind of line was called a flying line, which contained the meaning of high and unpredictable. It is not easy for the enemy to find it, and it is not easy for our own people to find it in the dark. The comrades of Gu Di, Jiliu, Nakaguchi, and the militia, everyone set up a human ladder and groped around among the rocks. It was until everyone was so busy that they were covered in sweat that they heard someone whisper:

"Line! There's a line here! ”

The flying line was finally found, and everyone was excited. Fortunately, the bullets flying everywhere did not blow up the flying line, and it was soon connected to the telephone station twenty miles to the east. In the distance, the voice of the telephone man Turkey was finally heard:

"It's Minister Gu, we miss you. I couldn't get in touch for a long time. Where did you move to? ”

"At Work Point Three!" Gu Mu said simply, "Are you there?" ”

"The place where we broke down has become an enemy aisle. Now, we're on the side of the enemy's aisle, at work point thirteen! ”

"Turkey, you remember, now you have to do two things right now!" Gu Mu said, "Do you understand? Hear me clearly? ”

"I know, chief, I'm going to do two things right now!"

"First thing," Gu Mu said, can you get in touch with the headquarters of the 115th Division? ”

"I can get in touch! I asked us about the situation here just now, and Political Commissar Luo kept asking us to contact you! But I haven't been able to get in touch! ”

"You report to the chief: the Shandong Branch, the governments of several counties, and more than 600 people are surrounded in Longxugu, and they must jump out tonight and ask for instructions. This is the first piece. This is the most urgent piece. After this is done, the second thing is to tell me about the enemy situation in front of you. In particular, we must find out the situation of the enemy who is close to us. ”

The working point of the No. 13 telephone station was in the upper part of a small ravine, in the stone slab house of a wild man's house. This is the most convenient and ideal place to observe the Tai Wai Mountain leading to Lung Sugu.

Half an hour later, Gu Mu received a concise telephone instruction from Political Commissar Luo:

The troops of the Shandong Column must resolutely cover the local government and the masses of the people, and must break away from the enemy's encirclement tonight. Breakthrough direction: Yicheng Township, Zhuchen Township, Longshan Township, Yanyu Township and Chengzi Township in Yicheng District. Time: The moment when the southeast direction is in response to the battle of the troops. Time: 2 a.m. sharp.

Telephone station No. 13 then reported on the situation in Yicheng Township, Zhuchen Township, Longshan Township, Yanyu Township and Chengzi Township in Yicheng District.

It is said that Xia Wei, Xintai, Tangbu, and Huangzhuang have accumulated a large number of enemy troops. However, the Yicheng Township and Zhuchen Township in Changyi City are empty. This image of emptiness is a false trap deliberately set.

At the No. 3 telephone station, the chief and chief of staff of the Shandong Sub-Bureau also heard the contents of the call, and after some efforts, they had a direct telephone conversation with the 115th Division to discuss countermeasures. They immediately ordered all the soldiers and civilians to quickly make all preparations for breaking out of the enemy's "iron wall" and to break out of the enemy's "iron wall" in accordance with the established marching sequence.

The 115th Division, which is far away in the mountains to the south, also emphasized on the telephone that it is now 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, and all units should set their clocks and watch them in order to unify their time so as to facilitate unified action.
