The deputy captain then reminded: "But, captain, if the sappers clear the mines, because the mines of the Eighth Route Army are all ceramic shells, the demining speed is too slow." ”

"Let's clear the mines first, and then we will wait until we get to the first village in front, go to the village and catch some people to open the way for us in front, so we don't have to be afraid of the mines of the Eighth Route Army?" The captain commanded with a murderous expression.

The vice-captain hurriedly replied: "The captain is wise! The Eighth Route Army has always been known for caring for the people of China, and if someone from China goes to the front to open the road, the Eighth Route will definitely not dare to lay mines again! Otherwise, the mines will blow up their own people first! ”

Ten minutes later, the Japanese continued to move forward.

At this time, Changlin had already led the guerrillas to rearrange a mine array for the Japanese puppet army, and this time, Changlin took out three mines at a time and prepared a chain of mines for the devils.

"Comrade Changlin, have the devils entered a minefield?" Captain Zhong of the guerrilla team said expectantly and worriedly.

Changlin replied confidently: "Captain Zhong, don't worry, these three mines will definitely make the devil suffer heavy losses!" ”

Soon, the devil stepped on the first mine, and the hearts of Captain Zhong and all the guerrillas under him also rose to their throats, and they were afraid that the mine would explode.

"It's okay, there was no explosion!" The squadron leader breathed a sigh of relief and looked forward to it even more.

The second mine, still did not explode.

The third mine, the hearts of the squadron leader and his subordinates once again raised to their throats.

This time, the mine exploded.

"Boom!" A violent explosion rang out on the highway and reached Captain Zhong's ears.

"Boom!" Before he could rejoice, two explosions followed.

The devils and puppet soldiers around the three mines were blown over in pieces by the explosion, and there were also three craters on the ground with a depth of more than one meter and directly scorched, which shows how powerful these mines are.

"Baga, how come there are still mines on the road, and three mines exploded together, how did the Eighth Route Army do it!" The lieutenant squad leader shouted with a pale face.

The explosion of the first three mines had already reduced the forward troops by more than 20%, and now there were corpses and wounded all over him, and at a glance he knew that there were more than 50 casualties, including nearly 20 in the imperial army.

Excluding these people, there are few people left in the entire forward force. As the commander of the forward unit, the lieutenant had thoughts of suicide, and looking at the bloody picture in front of him, his face was miserable, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

The captain of the Japanese army quickly received the news and rushed directly under the protection of the guards.

Looking at the scene in front of him, the whole person was stunned for half a minute before he reacted, and he scolded: "Eight Grid Yalu, cunning Eighth Route Army, I want to kill you all!" ”

"Your Excellency, Captain, do you want to order the sappers to go to the front to clear mines!" The vice-captain reminded with a solemn face.

"Mine clearance, when the mines on the road are cleared, the dirt road will have been wiped out by other troops long ago!" The captain scolded angrily.

Then he ordered with a fierce face: "The second squadron will abandon the road, take the wheat fields and rush to the village in front, and catch fifty people from China for me." Doesn't Tubalu like to plant mines, then we will use the people of China to go to the front to give us mines. There are many mines in the hands of Lao Tu Balu, or there are many people around China, so go and execute it immediately! ”

"Hey!" The vice-captain immediately took the order.

But it didn't take long for the second squadron to return, and again, it ran back with a dozen wounded and corpses, and ran back demoralized.

"What's going on, what's going on with the casualties? What about the people of China? Why didn't the people of China I want come back? The captain looked like an angry lion, staring at the squadron leader and asking rhetorically.

The squadron leader lowered his head and replied: "When we arrived at the village, the village was already empty, and there was not a single person in the village, not even a dog was found. ”

"As for the casualties, we encountered the Tubalu guerrillas, who inflicted them on us with cold guns!"

"Then did you send troops to destroy them!" The captain asked rhetorically with a pair of angry eyes.

"Please, sir, we didn't destroy them! These dirt roads are too cunning, and they are again after the fight, and they are particularly scattered. The humble position sent troops to pursue, but after a few minutes of pursuit, it was lost, and it had no effect at all! "The squadron leader's head is lowered.

As a squadron leader from the field unit of the Imperial Army, the squadron leader has never fought such a humiliating battle. If it is said to be angry, no one is more angry than him. But the guerrillas are so cunning that they are tired of dealing with both guerrilla warfare with cold guns and cannons, or sports warfare that pounces on him and bites him when he seizes the opportunity!

"This must be a conspiracy of the Dirt Eight Road. Without the people of China to open the way, the road that could have been completed in one day may not be completed in five days with only sappers clearing mines! The vice-captain reacted and shouted anxiously.

The captain's face was extremely gloomy, and it took a full five minutes before he reacted: "Bage Yalu, this encirclement and suppression operation is an excellent opportunity for us to eliminate the independent regiment, and there must be no accidents." I will immediately contact His Excellency the General to see what the General has to do, and the whole encirclement and suppression operation must not have an accident because of us! ”

Soon, the vice-captain walked over with a heavy face.

"Captain, Your Excellency the General has called back."

"The other three-way offensive forces are also encountering the same problems as us, and it is obvious that the Eighth Route Army has been prepared for our sweep this time!"

The captain breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the problem of sweeping did not lie with him, nothing was a problem.

Then he stared at the deputy captain and asked, "What is the opinion of Your Excellency General!" ”

"Hey!" The vice-captain replied immediately.

"Your Excellency the General said, since Tubalu has been prepared for our sweep for a long time, then we must be careful and careful in our next sweep!"

"The four-way attacking troops maintain the current speed, and the mine-sweeping will be mine-cleared, and it doesn't matter if the speed is slow, but the distance between the four-way attacking troops must not be widened, and any of the attacking troops must not stand out alone, so as to avoid being ambushed by the Eighth Route Army!"

"Yo Xi, Your Excellency the General is very thoughtful, and we will do what Your Excellency the General says! Order the sappers to start minesweeping right away! ”

"Also, the formation of the avant-garde troops should be as dispersed as possible, and even if they hit mines, the losses will be very small!"

The deputy captain reminded in a low voice: "Your Excellency, captain, do you want to order the Imperial Allied Army to go to the front to open the way, so that the losses of our Imperial Army will be reduced to a minimum!" ”

"No way!" The captain refused without hesitation.

"Everyone knows that if they get ahead of them, they could step on a landmine and lose their lives at any time. Sending out the Imperial Cooperative Army alone, doesn't that clearly tell them that the Imperial Army is to let them be substitutes for the dead! The Imperial Army still needs them in the next battle, and they can't be estranged from the Imperial Army for the time being! ”

"I see, go give the order now!" The vice-captain replied with a look of sudden realization, and he admired the captain more and more.
