An excellent commander not only knows how to seize the fleeting fighter plane on the scene, but more importantly, he has the ability to make a correct prediction of the battle situation and control the development and advancement of the battle situation in his favor.

There is no doubt that Qiao Xiaojing is such a commander, she has a cool head, a quick reaction and extraordinary courage, dares to make bold ideas, and has the ability to turn ideas into reality, and has the characteristics of an excellent commander.

In order to disrupt the deployment of the devils, weaken the vitality of the devils, and make the devils exhausted but unable to do anything during the autumn grain harvesting process, Qiao Xiaojing made up his mind to start a local battle with the devils, that is, "destroy them all the way".

Small-scale fights will undoubtedly scratch the itches of the devils and will not have any effect; big fights can indeed damage the devils, reduce their combat effectiveness, and disturb the morale of the troops, but the guerrilla squads have limited manpower and inferior weapons and equipment, and they have the hidden worry of "suicide" attacks.

The mysterious man appeared again, and once again sent Qiao Xiaojing an eight-character note, "If it is carried out, there will be reinforcements", this note is like a strong needle, which strengthened Qiao Xiaojing's determination, although I don't know who the mysterious person is......

Dazhi and Ah Zi once again returned to their old business and started their old business - reconnaissance, conducting continuous reconnaissance of the devils who were raided, and Cuiyu and the big man were responsible for the transmission of information, after all, the big man was the "Shenxing Taibao".

Qiao Xiaojing led the rest of the team to the northern suburbs of the county, and she decided to set the battlefield in a canyon from the county seat to the northern suburbs. There is another reason, that is, this valley is the only road between the county town and the northern suburbs, and the highlands on both sides of the canyon are like two open gates, condescending, and can take the trend of "one man is the pass, ten thousand people are not open", which is conducive to the encirclement and annihilation of the enemy.

In order to achieve a surprise effect, Qiao Xiaojing's team arrived at the predetermined location before dawn. She divided the only dozen or so people into two groups, stationed on both sides of the canyon, with flags as trumpets, echoing each other from afar. After the battle started, the two groups of people could attack and defend according to the actual situation, but they must be within the scope of Qiao Xiaojing's strategic deployment.

After the two groups of team members completed the pre-battle preparations, Qiao Xiaojing ordered the flag bearer to play the flag - all the team members hid in place. After receiving the flag, the team members disappeared into the green grass in an instant, and the highlands on both sides of the canyon returned to their former tranquility.

"The devil is not an eight-legged crab, he has always been very arrogant, what happened this time, let people beat a dull stick, and there was no movement at all, why did he become a turtle with a shrunken head?"

"Calm down, the devil is playing tricks with us, so he wants us to move first, so as to find an opportunity to destroy us, and whoever can calm down at this time will have the initiative. "Although Ah Zi is a woman, she is always very calm in the face of difficulties.

Dazhi smiled and cast an admiring look at Ah Zi.

In fact, waiting itself is a process of physical and mental suffering, and without sufficient concentration, who can face it calmly? Just as uneasy as Dazhi, not to mention Dazhi alone, the big man waiting for the news is also restless, he keeps rubbing his face with his hands, sometimes sighing, sometimes muttering, in short, it is like standing on a hot pot.

"Then what if the devil really doesn't dare to come out, or if the devil is afraid of being attacked again, changes direction and goes to another village?" The big man saw that the sun had reached the top of his head, and he couldn't suppress the panic in his heart.

"If the devils don't come out after being beaten up, then they will have to go back to Japan a long time ago. They will come out, and the momentum is huge, and when the time comes, I am afraid that you will have limited bullets in your hands and will not be able to kill all the devils. The sneak attackers have caused trouble for the devils, and the devils are bent on destroying the gang before stealing food...... Don't be cranky. Jade smiled faintly.

"Will they be in trouble and unable to pass on the news?"

"No, they are battle-tested veterans who are absolutely capable of delivering the word. I haven't gotten any news now, which can only mean that the devil hasn't moved yet. "Jade absolutely believes in the abilities of her comrades.

"Listen to you, let's wait here!" the big man knew that there was nothing else he could do but wait.

"Take this opportunity to rest and rest, once the news comes, you still have to fly on the grass. Jade said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll give you a grass fly later. The big man leaned against the wall and closed his eyes.

Qiao Xiaojing and the team members in the canyon area were still lying in the green grass, looking at the stretching mountains and winding ravines with dry sour eyes, waiting for the news of the devil's dispatch.

It was past noon, the sun was mercilessly scorching the ground, and the moisture from the ground was desperately surging upwards like crazy, clinging to the bodies of each team member, and the ensuing pain and itching tortured the soldiers, and the little mosquitoes also took advantage of the fire to rob, scrambling to bite their bodies. Not only that, but hunger also took the opportunity to join in the excitement, and hunger came and went.

"Beat the flag, let the fighters eat, pay attention to concealment. In fact, Qiao Xiaojing herself also felt hungry.

"Ah~ let people eat, no one teaches me, I won't. "The soldier in charge of the flag was embarrassed and spoke in a rambling manner.

Qiao Xiaojing frowned, turned her head and said to the soldier in charge of the flag: "You go over, let them eat, and tell them to be careful when eating and do a good job of concealment." ”

"Yes!" this is a young man, very neat, and he has already run downhill as soon as he finished speaking.

"You should be careful...... Qiao Xiaojing wanted to tell the young soldier, but he didn't expect him to run away, shook his head, and said to himself with a smile, "Hey, this kid is really faster than a rabbit." ”

The team members eat dry food and drink plain water, which is their lunch.

The process of eating can make them forget about the itching caused by moisture for a while, they can tolerate mosquito bites, and in short, they feel good. After the meal was over, everything was back to normal, and all kinds of painful feelings came back to him.

Approaching two o'clock in the afternoon, the devils finally set out, a partial three-wheeled motorcycle opened the way, followed by fifteen rows of devils, three people in each row, and finally there was a partial three-wheeled motorcycle behind the palace, and there was a heavy machine gun on each of the two motorcycles, a total of forty-nine guns.

Jade stayed behind to continue to investigate the movements of the devil, and Dazhi passed the situation he saw to Jade in the form of a note as quickly as possible, and Jade handed it over to the big man, who handed it over to Qiao Xiaojing.

In the revolutionary years, when there were no radio stations and means of transportation, small-scale anti-Japanese troops transmitted information in this way, and this way of transmitting information was the simplest, most common, and of course the most practical.

For the big man, he doesn't have much choice, the devil has already been dispatched, in order to rush to the canyon where Qiao Xiaojing is before the devil, and pass the news to Qiao Xiaojing, so that Qiao Xiaojing can make a decision, he can only do his best. He took a shortcut and ran forward like a fly, his steps were light, as if he were flying on the tip of grass, and the ditches and ditches were as smooth as walking on the ground......

When the big man crossed the mountains and reached the three-way intersection in the northern suburbs, he found that ten meters in front of him stood about 20 young men dressed like peasants, with guns in their hands and a heavy machine gun, carried by two young men. To the surprise of the big man, these people stood still with calm expressions, as if they were waiting for him.

The big man was anxious in his heart, but he pretended to be calm, stood in place and did not say a word, waiting for the person opposite to show his attitude.

"Your tofu is very delicious, and my lord likes it very much. The young man at the front of the line spoke first.

"You're mistaken, we don't have tofu at home, and I never eat tofu. "It's a little inexplicable for the big guys.

"If there is a war, there will be reinforcements...... "The young man said lightly the eight words on the note.

"May I ask who you are......" The big man saw the note, his heart was shocked, and he stared blankly at the person in front of him.

"Just call me a pony, may I ask Captain Joe?" the young man did not answer the big man's question directly.

"It's okay, may I ask if you guys ......" The big man still wants to know the identity of the gang in front of him.

Suddenly, the group stood on both sides of the road, and a way was made in the middle, and a bright red tall horse appeared in front of the big man, and the young man who claimed to be a pony said, "I'm delaying your journey, this horse will be lent to you for the time being." You lead the way, and we'll follow. ”

The big man wished for a horse to free his legs, and he was so excited that he jumped on the horse, and even forgot to say a word of thanks. I could only hear the shouts of "drive, drive, drive", and the dust opened like a curtain, covering everyone's eyes, and in the blink of an eye, the big man disappeared into the rolling loess.

The pony ran with his team and followed the big one, moving quickly behind them.

Not long after the big man handed the note to Qiao Xiaojing, the pony's team had already arrived at the forward position where Qiao Xiaojing and they were stationed. After a brief exchange, the only thing Qiao Xiaojing can be sure of is that these brothers were arranged by a mysterious person, and the rest is unknown.

The battle is imminent, there is no time to greet, Qiao Xiaojing quickly adjusted the deployment according to the strength and weapons of the pony, the thickness of the attack on both sides of the canyon has been significantly enhanced, this is not enough, she also organized the five people in the pony team into a counterattack group, let them hide in the canyon, and when the battle starts, this group rushes out of the canyon, blocking the way of the devil, and realizing the siege on three sides.

To be precise, it should be surrounded on all sides, please don't forget that the team also has three fierce generals, namely Dazhi, Ah Zi and Cuiyu, they are following behind the devils, and they will also participate in the battle, although there are few people, the combat effectiveness should not be underestimated, and it is bound to become an obstacle to the retreat of the devils......

They didn't have to wait too long, and the devil entered Qiao Xiaojing's line of sight, less than two hundred meters away from the preset pocket array.

Qiao Xiaojing looked at the rolling dust raised by the devil's motorcycle, seemed to have an epiphany, and said to the pony beside her: "The battle starts, let the bombardier first aim at the devil's motorcycle to up, and scrap the motorcycle in front and behind for me, so that this iron lump will become a stumbling block for the devil's advance and retreat." ”

The pony nodded. Qiao Xiaojing said to the soldiers who were waving the flag: "Let the teams pay attention and prepare for battle!"

"Yes!" the flag-waving soldier replied crisply.
