The Ishii Wing divided into two routes and continued along the road line.

After the highway line came to an end, there was no devil stronghold along the way to ensure the safety of the Ishii Wing, and there were about five kilometers of mountain roads left.

This five-kilometer journey, for Ishii Haraichi, is a journey of secret competition with the Eighth Route Army.

"Give the order, slow down the march, send the vanguard to ensure the safety of the main force, and send people on both sides of the mountain road to reconnoiter along the way to ensure that there is no enemy ambush."

As soon as he took the first step on the mountain road, Ishiihara immediately ordered that the Eighth Route Army would lay mines on the mountain road it was traveling, or use the mountain ambushes on both sides of the mountain road, which was the Eighth Route Army's usual forte.

"Hey!" The Devil Messenger answered, turned around and went to deliver the order.

At the same time, just as Ishii Haraichi expected, when he arrived at the entrance of the mountain road with his team, on the mountain a few hundred meters away, there were already scout soldiers of the Independent Regiment who secretly started reconnaissance.

In charge of the first section of the reconnaissance was the leader of the assault team's reconnaissance team, Mu.

The reason was that Kong Jie was not at ease, and in order to ensure that the information from the enemy's Ministry of Engineering was true, he specially sent Mu Tou and others to carefully reconnoiter the first section before determining the final situation.

The moment the little devil appeared, Mu Tou had been observing with a telescope, and he looked very carefully, and reconnoitered all the approximate strength, firepower configuration, and even military appearance of the devil's entire team.

Cao Zheng, the leader of the fire team on the side, asked, "How is it, wood, do you see anything?" ”

Mu looked at Cao Zheng, who also put down the binoculars on the side, and asked rhetorically, "Old Cao, what do you think?" ”

Cao Zhengdao: "According to the information sent back by the comrades of the enemy's Ministry of Labor, the devils ostensibly attacked Zhangjiazhuang this time, but in fact they focused their attack on Xicun.

In other words, according to the intelligence, 2,000 of the nearly 3,000 devils in front of him were dressed up in ghost army costumes by the puppet army. ”

"That's what happened." Wood nodded.

Cao Zheng smiled bitterly: "If you really say that, the acting skills of this No. 2000 puppet army are really good, and at first glance, this team really looks like a No. 3000 devil." ”

Mu said: "I feel about the same as you, but on the surface, the pace of the devils in the front part is not the same as that of the devils in the back, could it be that the 2000 devils in front are really pseudo-uniforms?"

It is true that the queue of the puppet army is relatively poor, and the organization and discipline of the team are poor. ”

Cao Zheng secretly pointed to the weapons carried by the soldiers in the Japanese army, and said: "If the devils in front of them are really pseudo-military uniforms, this little devil is really doing a full set of tricks, you see the batch of devils in front, whether it is the weapons they are carrying, or the clothes on their bodies, they are really alive devils, and some of them have sanitary beards!"

I'm still a little skeptical, is this really a pseudo-military uniform?

However, judging from the firepower configuration, the No. 3000 devil should always carry a lot of artillery, but there are not many artillery pieces in this team.

This was not the artillery configuration that a Japanese wing should have. ”

Mu Tou thought for a while and said: "This matter is very important, you can't be careless, in case the person in front of this is either a puppet army or a devil!"

Let's make a mistake in judgment, it will be troublesome, Lao Cao, if you look at it like this, I can't see what the situation is.

Why don't we test and try to beat him up? ”

"How?"

"Further back, we ambushed a platoon of troops, the devil just didn't have any artillery in his hand, and he couldn't threaten us from a distance, so we took advantage of the mountainous environment to fight the little devil in an ambush.

Let's take the opportunity to take a closer look at the reaction of the first batch of devils who seem to be disguised by the puppet army.

Whether it is a devil pretending to be a puppet army, or a puppet army pretending to be a devil, there is one essence that they can't change, that is, when facing an ambush and facing death, the little devil has always reacted very quickly, with no look of fear on his face, and he can immediately raise his gun to fight back without even the commander's order.

This is almost the instinct of a well-trained little devil, after a long period of military training, on the battlefield.

The puppet army, on the other hand, will be in a panic, and the soldiers will be the first to find cover to hide.

In this way, it is easy for us to determine whether the spearhead is a devil or a puppet army. ”

"Good!"

……

……

Niukou Village.

Regiment headquarters.

Kong Jie, the commander of the Independent Regiment, stared at the combat sand table.

Urgent intelligence news has reached the regimental headquarters.

Judging from the dress, there are 500 Japanese troops plus 2,000 puppet troops, who are marching in the direction of Xicun, and another 3,000 Japanese troops are marching in the direction of Zhangjiazhuang.

Now for Kong Jie, the supreme military commander of the Independent Regiment, the top priority is to determine whether the devils are focusing their attacks on Xicun or Zhangjiazhuang.

It's obviously a matter of choosing one of the two, and choosing with your eyes closed has a one-half correct rate.

If this one-in-half probability is to represent the safety of thousands of people in the Niukou Village base area of the Independent Regiment, including the West Village and Zhangjiazhuang.

That's a bit of torture.

At this time, not to mention the probability of choosing the right one-in-half.

Even if there are seven tenths and the other three tenths, Kong Jie does not dare to bet.

The principle that the three armies are exhausted by the incompetence of one general is often used by Kong Jie to abuse those incompetent generals of the national army and the Jin Sui army.

The military commander's judgment of the battlefield situation is simply too important, and the lives of the soldiers are even on Kong Jie's shoulders at this time.

So much so that Kong Jie hesitated a little.

"On the bright side, the 3,000 Japanese army attacked Zhangjiazhuang, and the 500 Japanese army plus 2,000 puppet troops attacked Xicun, focusing on Zhangjiazhuang."

"But there is news from the enemy's Ministry of Industry that the devils are going to attack Xicun and feint to attack Zhangjiazhuang, and nearly 2,000 devils and puppet soldiers have changed their uniforms."

"In addition, if the little devil wants to focus on attacking Zhangjiazhuang, he won't be so undisguised and fanfare, right?"

"So, the No. 3000 Japanese army that ostensibly attacked Zhangjiazhuang was just a cover? A large number of Japanese soldiers were really dressed up as puppet soldiers? ”

"So the elite of the 2,500 Japanese army who attacked Xicun was actually attacked, and only 1,000 Japanese troops attacked Zhangjiazhuang?"

"Interesting, it seems that Ishii Haraichi, an old devil, is really an expert in the old and suspicious array."

"Monk, do you think this little devil is going to attack Xicun or Zhangjiazhuang?"

Kong Jie, who seemed to be talking to himself, raised his head and asked.

The monk replied: "Commander, I don't know very well, but didn't there be news from our enemy engineering department, saying that the devil is going to attack Xicun?" ”

Kong Jie smiled: "You stupid monk, we can all pass on false news to the little devils through the 311 regiment's Zhu Wenliang generals, don't the devils know the problems of their internal puppet army, so they can't deliberately pass false news to us through the puppet army?" ”

The monk was taken aback, "Regiment Commander, do you mean that the information obtained by the comrades of the enemy engineering department is fake, and the little devil wants to fool us?" ”

Kong Jie said: "This is true or false, false and real, and now, it is impossible to judge it only based on the information we have at hand." ”

"We think that the devil is a plan, but what if the little devil doesn't do it? We think that the information from the enemy's Ministry of Engineering is true, what if the little devil calculates again? ”

A series of rhetorical questions left the monk speechless.

Kong Jie is also a little distressed now.

Since the early spring of last year, his battles along the way have been smooth, and naturally the important Japanese military information provided by the system is indispensable.

In fact, a very important point in fighting a war is the intelligence of the war!

The asymmetry of information is enough to upend a war.

In a war, the side with better intelligence basically wins half the battle.

But this guy in the system is very hateful, and when Captain Kong gradually grows up, the number of times it is triggered is getting less and less.

Not even a trace.

Just like the battle in front of him, if the system can stand up and tell Kong Jie directly and clearly, where is the devil going to attack, why is Kong Jie so troubled?

"Now it's impossible to judge what is real and false, and we can only wait for the specific situation that they have detected back from the wood in front of us."

……

……

Ishii Haraichi, who led the team all the way to Zhangjiazhuang, looked in the northwest direction many times in the middle of the way, which was the middle section of Zhangjiazhuang and Xicun, a large mountainous area.

It was very difficult for the main force to pass there, it was easier to be ambushed by the Eighth Route Army in the mountains, and there was no protection of strongholds along the way.

But if it's a small elite combat unit, it's definitely the best route to intersperse.

"The senior's special team should have been in the mountains by now!"

Ishii Haraichi thought secretly, and was also full of anticipation for the decapitation operation of the secret service.

Although Ishii Haraichi is not lacking in the courage and self-confidence of a soldier, he is also cautious and recognizes reality.

This independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army has been able to go all the way to this point and continuously defeat the imperial forces, and its strength should definitely not be underestimated.

Even the special forces led by his senior Kazuki Yamamoto heard that they had been defeated many times at the hands of Kong Jie, the head of the independent regiment, and had almost perished several times.

It was the independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army that defeated the Sakata United and could not be measured by common sense.

At present, the independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army occupies the home field and relies on the roots to fight, plus the strength of this independent regiment is also nearly 3,000 people, which is not much less than his Ishii United.

Even if it was a hard-fought battle, Ishii Haraichi was confident that he would defeat the Independent Regiment, but he was really not sure that he would be able to destroy the Independent Regiment, and the casualties on his own side would be even more inevitable.

If the Yamamoto Special Forces can destroy the command system of the Independent Regiment and kill Kong Jie in one fell swoop when the Ishii Wing is engaged in the battle with the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

Then the ending of all this is different again.

Ishii Haraichi even had the confidence to destroy the Independence Regiment.

So Ishii Haraichi has great expectations on Yamamoto Kazuki.

……

……

In the middle of the mountainous area between Zhangjiazhuang and Xicun, a team of devils wearing mountain combat uniforms quietly appeared.

They use the mountains and forests as cover, and even in this inaccessible mountain environment, they still travel in small groups alternately under cover, and the beautiful interspersed curves are enough to make people stunning.

Looking at the mountains that still stretched, Yamamoto's eyes were resolute.

It's a matter of success or failure.

Whether or not the special forces can wash away the shame of the repeated defeats in the hands of the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment depends on today's battle.

The Ishii Wing has divided its troops into two routes, one real and one virtual, and marched towards Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang.

At this moment, the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army should already be in a hurry, right?

How could anyone have thought that his special forces would intersperse this reckless mountainous area to behead the headquarters of the Independent Regiment?

With this in mind, Yamamoto gave an order, urging the team to speed up.

In this mountainous area, as early as more than a month ago, Yamamoto brought people to investigate, and the terrain of this mountainous area, including the mountain roads, were all investigated in advance.

At this moment, the route that the special team explored in the direction of Niukou Village can be said to be familiar with the road.

Of course, Yamamoto will not attack rashly, and after leading the team to approach the entrance of Niukou Village, Yamamoto will wait for the battle in the direction of Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang to start completely, and when the cannon sound comes, the two sides will enter the white-hot battle, and then take the opportunity to sneak attack.

The Secret Service exists like a clever assassin who waits until the target has a big enough flaw to strike to ensure a lethal hit.

While thinking about these questions, a low-pitched voice came from beside him, "Your Excellency, the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army have been found not far away!" ”

Sure enough, not far away, there was a small group of the Eighth Route Army, about a dozen people, looming in the mountains and forests.

This mountainous area in the middle of Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang was the guerrilla area of the Eighth Route Army.

It is naturally not uncommon to see the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army here.

"Your Excellency Dazuo, do you want to kill this team?"

Shantu shook his head and ordered in a low voice: "Continue to hide and wait for these eight roads to leave." ”

"Hey!"

Yamamoto was very cautious at the moment, and although his special forces could easily eliminate the Eighth Route Army guerrillas not far away, he could not ensure that not a single gunshot would be fired during the battle.

In order to ensure the smooth operation of the final decapitation and to ensure the absolute concealment of the secret service team before entering the palace, he decided to continue to hibernate.

Time ticked by.

……

……

Suddenly, the battle began.

In order to find out whether the enemy army attacking Zhangjiazhuang was a puppet army or a devil, Mu Tou and Cao Zheng joined the follow-up latent combat platoon, and launched an attack on the devil with the help of bunkers on both sides of the mountain road.

In order to ensure safety, this time in the attack, the combat platoon mainly used 50 mortars.

The 50 mortar, which has been lengthened and thickened, has a longer range than the devil's Type 89 grenadier after adding a projectile pack.

This is also Cao Zheng and Mu out of the safety of the combat platoon, in order to guard against the devils from returning fire with artillery fire, so they deliberately put the range outside the range of the devil's grenadiers.

Towards the devil in the lead, two rounds of bombardment were carried out with three 50 mortars.

The shells suddenly exploded on the mountain road, and the artillerymen in the team who operated the artillery were all good hands specially trained by Wang Chengzhu and the howitzers, and the shells were quite accurate, and they smashed directly into the Japanese army on the mountain road, and the devil team was hit by the shells, and six or seven people were killed on the spot, and more than ten people were injured around.

Caught off guard, the smoke of gunpowder immediately filled the air after the shells exploded, and Mu and Cao Zheng took the opportunity to raise their binoculars and carefully observe the performance of the soldiers in the front row wearing devil uniforms.

No panic, calm, calm, and quite quick to react.

Some of the devils in the front row immediately rescued the wounded, and the other part locked on the spot in the direction where Mu Tou and Cao Zheng opened their guns, and raised their guns to fight back.

The whole team, the devil in the lead, immediately showed the battle formation commonly used by the Japanese army.

Then there were devil artillery to make up for it, and under the cover of the infantry, grenadiers began to be arranged.

It's just that Mu and Cao Zheng's side succeeded in a blow, and immediately ordered to retreat.

The vanguard of the devils counterattacked in the direction of the hillside for a while, but there was no movement, and then the shooting stopped.

On the way back, Mu and Cao Zheng glanced at each other, and they both saw the answer in each other's eyes.

"This is definitely not a puppet army!"

Judgment in unison......
