The soldiers of the fourth regiment took the opportunity to sneak attack several places of the devils and the villages.

After defeating the small Japanese troops stationed at the end of the village, they quickly took control of the entire annex.

When they rushed into the village and saw clearly the scene and environment of the people living in the village, the officers and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who rushed to the village were all furious.

The so-called Tuntun Village forcibly gathered the people in a large number of scattered villages around it.

It stands to reason that with so many people, the internal construction of such a merged super village should be more perfect.

But the reality is quite the opposite.

The warriors looked over and saw not a few decent houses in the entire village.

Most of them are thatched huts.

The kind that will fall when the wind blows, and leak when it rains.

Some farmers don't even have thatched huts, but just build a simple rectangle out of wood, and then cover the perimeter with some straw or hang some rags.

It's barely a place to stay.

Similar thatched huts and rag houses are next to each other.

In order to save the troops garrisoned, even if a large number of people moved over, the village was actually not very large.

Thatched huts are next to each other.

As the soldiers rushed into the house, their anger intensified.

The people of the village had long been tortured, especially the women and children, who were crammed into a thatched hut in three or five.

Ragged clothes, yellow face and thin muscles.

The life of the people in the village is simply miserable.

In response to the sudden outbreak of fighting and the arrival of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, the people were panicked at first, waiting to see the clothes of the troops who entered the battle.

There was ecstasy on his face.

An old woman took the hand of a company commander and said with tears in her eyes: "Comrades of the Eighth Road, you are finally here!" ”

"I'm sorry, auntie, we're late!"

Looking at the surrounding baba looking at himself, the villagers who had been devastated and persecuted by the Japanese invaders in these days replied with a long nose and a sour nose.

It has been quite a short time since the Fourth Independent Regiment entered Zhongtiao Mountain.

The mass base of the four regiments' base areas, including the outlying guerrilla areas, was quite good.

In addition, the Fourth Regiment is sincerely anti-Japanese, and it can be said that it is the last Chinese troops who insist on staying in the area of Zhongtiao Mountain to resist the Japanese invasion.

Therefore, even in some counties occupied by devils, the prestige of the Fourth Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army is quite loud.

It's almost a golden sign.

This uniform is the brightest light that the people can see in the dark.

Then, the soldiers quickly rescued the people in the village.

Some of the dry food and water they had brought with them were distributed to the people who had been hungry for several days.

I saw the people eating the food with tears in their eyes.

The commander of the first battalion couldn't help but scold a few times, and asked again: "Fellow, this little devil got you here, and he didn't care about your life or death at all?" ”

The old man said with a bitter face: "Even if you circle a few pigs, you won't starve to death, and the little devil doesn't treat them as people at all."

It's okay to be younger, you can work for the devil, and the little devil will give you something to eat.

These old people, as well as women and children, because they can't do much work, can't get half a grain at all.

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

If it weren't for the help of the working babies, I would have saved some of the food I didn't eat for my family.

Those of us who can't do farm work are afraid that we will starve to death long ago. ”

"These brutes!" The battalion commander scolded.

Another signal soldier rushed to report: "Battalion commander, I have found the place that the fellows said, you can go and take a look, it's too miserable!" ”

Hearing this, the first battalion commander's heart sank, and he immediately followed the signal soldiers towards the target point.

That was the news that I had found out through the villagers in Bingtun Village before.

Since the devils implemented the policy of merging and forcibly gathering the villagers together, the devils did not distribute food at all.

Some elderly people with poor physical fitness, as well as children and women, starved to death.

The little devil who had lost his conscience threw the corpses directly in a place called the corpse pit and ignored them.

There are even some children who are just ordinary wind chills, and because they are sick, they are directly thrown into the corpse pit alive by the devil.

The family went to the devil to beg, but they were beaten badly, and then they never saw the child again.

When the soldiers arrived, many mothers pleaded that the soldiers would find the pits and save the children.

When the battalion commander and the signal soldiers arrived, many soldiers around the pit were vomiting and their faces were pale.

The warriors were accustomed to seeing life and death on the battlefield.

Accustomed to bloodshed and sacrifice.

But he still couldn't bear to look at the tragedy and desolation in front of him.

There were no human figures in the grave, only flies flying and rotting flesh.

More than a dozen mothers said that they were sick and taken away by the Japanese were also mixed in, and they had long since lost their lives.

After the shock, there was a monstrous anger.

"Battalion commander—"

The warriors had red eyes, clenched fists, their nails almost digging into the flesh, and they felt no pain under the impact of anger.

"These little devils of the dog day, they are going to kill them all!"

The commander of the first battalion took in the fire-breathing eyes of the soldiers in silence, and then nodded heavily.

"Kill, all the little devils should be killed!"

"Has Elder arrived? Ask him to take some pictures, which is the latest and strongest evidence against the Japanese invaders. ”

A voice came from not far away from the battalion commander.

"Battalion commander, Reporter Elder is here!"

The voice fell, and a little soldier arrived with the American journalist Elder.

Originally, the temporary military reporter of the Fourth Regiment was Shen Wenyue.

And this Elder is an American journalist friend that Shen Wenyue knows.

This American is an enthusiastic journalist.

At the beginning, after the defeat of the national army in Zhongtiao Mountain, among the foreign reporters who asked when the national army would fight back to Zhongtiao Mountain to regain lost territory, the first one to jump out was Elder.

After the reputation of the 4th Independent Regiment in the Zhongtiao Mountain War of Resistance gradually spread.

Elder has admired the Eighth Route Army, a people's soldier, a heroic fighting force for national independence and anti-aggression, for a long time.

After being connected by Shen Wenyue.

When Wang Huaibao heard that such an American reporter wanted to interview the troops of the Eighth Route Army, he did not refuse, so he invited Ayer to the Fourth Regiment.

Then, in the fourth regiment, I felt the heroism and lofty faith of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army.

followed the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army to take one political lesson after another.

Eventually, the enthusiastic Alder made up his mind.

Dead or alive, we must stay in the Fourth Independent Regiment and take part in this great revolutionary struggle against aggression.

Therefore, after Shen Wenyue went south to the Yellow River, the reporter of the Fourth Regiment was served by Elder.

…… Arriving there, Alder saw a large number of soldiers standing around the dumpling pit, and in curiosity, approached and looked towards the dumpling pit.

Forthwith...... Wow wow wow –

This poor American old man could not withstand such a violent impact, and vomited directly on the spot.

Wait until the accompanying warrior explains to Ayerd the reason for the appearance of the abandoned pit in front of him.

Al had to jump and jump.

Fuck——

The old American, who has always been a gentleman, was scolded incoherently in words that the soldiers did not understand.

His Chinese was not bad, and then he took a deep breath and said to the battalion commander in some American words: "These Japanese invaders are the dirtiest, meanest, cruelest, coldest, and most numb perverts and bastards in the world who should be hanged!" ”

Filled with anger in his chest, Elder stopped vomiting, wiped his mouth carelessly, held up his camera, and began to film.

Ten minutes later.

Scouts rushed to report that the Japanese forces were rapidly approaching the village.

As for the fighters......

"Battalion commander, the villagers have all been transferred to the road!"

Wang Huaibao, who did not hesitate any longer, immediately issued an order: "Okay, notify all companies, evacuate immediately, and before leaving, burn this ghost village to me!" ”

"Yes!"

When the troops gradually moved away, looking back at the area where the original village was located, the blazing fire was reflected in the eyes of every soldier who stood there.

The fire burned everything in the village, but it could not burn the anger and hatred of the soldiers against the Japanese invaders in their hearts.

This vendetta -

Implacable.

……

The tide of battle continues to evolve.

Many of the Japanese army's villages were attacked by the soldiers, and the soldiers, with great anger, transferred all the people, and directly burned the villages with torches.

The headquarters of the Japanese Forward Brigade.

The news reached the ears of the captain of the devil brigade, Shinya Uchida.

This angry old devil immediately ordered to intensify the offensive, preparing to directly break through the fortifications of the Eighth Route Army, which was currently blocking from the front, and eliminate this group of Eight Routes, so as to relieve the hatred in his heart.

The other side.

The tragic situation in Hetun Village, and the unspeakable crimes inflicted by the devils on the people of Zhongtiao Mountain, were also known by Wang Huaibao and other cadres of the Fourth Regiment Headquarters.

"Commander——, it was only less than half a month, and the villagers who were tortured to death by the little devils are too many to count."

"The situation in Nagatun village is really miserable."

"These little devils of the dog day, we have to kill them all and avenge the villagers!"

Looking at the soldiers who share the same hatred.

Wang Huaibao's eyes flashed with determination.

"Okay, then let's kill him happily and don't teach the little devil a bloody lesson, how will they know what kind of fate the invaders should have?"

"Give me the order at once!"

"At present, the villagers have been rescued, and each battalion quickly adjusted its original combat deployment, including the four battalions, including Duan Peng's commando.

Goal: Defeat Lao Tzu's forward unit of this dog's little devil - the Uchida Brigade of the Kwantung Army.

Slaughter the most rampant of vicious dogs! ”

"Yes—"

The signal soldier replied loudly.

Wang Huaibao, who had made up his mind, decided to give the little devil a thunderous blow.

After the order was quickly issued, he closely followed the changes in the situation with the operational map in front of him.

5 p.m.

Since the village was raided and burned by the four regiments, the enraged Uchida Nobu also ordered the forward Kwantung Army Brigade to concentrate a little to launch an attack.

The soldiers who fought against it, under the attack of the Japanese army, retreated from the defensive positions on the middle line.

Seeing that the offensive was going well, the suppressed anger in his heart seemed to be vented a lot.

Uchida Shinya also ordered: "Continue the pursuit, don't give the Eighth Route Army any breathing, force them to the north bank of the Yellow River in one go, and then destroy them in one fell swoop!" ”

The retreating warriors held back their anger.

The little devils are angry that the village has been destroyed.

As everyone knows, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army they are facing are because of what the devil did in Bingtun Village.

The anger was already raging.

"Withdraw!"

"Company commander, are you still withdrawing?"

There is a cadre with a bitter face, he has seen the tragic scene of Bingtun Village with his own eyes, and he can't wait to rush up with a machine gun to play with the little devil now.

The third company commander scolded: "What are you in a hurry for? It's not the time to kill the devil. ”

"Now rush up and kill thirty or fifty devils, what's the use of a fart?"

"If you want to beat us, beat him up and bury this gang of devils in the Zhongtiao Mountains completely!"

"Yes—"

At this time, the offensive and defensive changes of both sides:

The Japanese sweeping force was slowly advancing, and the Devil Kwantung Army Brigade was like a sharp awl, taking the lead in breaking through to the in-depth defense area of the Fourth Independent Regiment.

The main forces of a battalion of the 4th Regiment placed on the central line retreated again and again.

It's like a pocket, and gradually the Uchida brigade is put into the pocket.

In the continued Meng's attack, the devil's staff officer reminded Uchida Shinya out of caution: "Your Excellency Captain, it seems a bit unusual for the Eighth Route to retreat and retreat, and our army continues to go deeper, and it is easy to fall into the ambush of the Eighth Road.

Do you think we will wait until the main force of the rear sweep advances, and then our troops will attack? ”

But as long as there are famous generals, every battle can be said to be a game.

It's just that they will always be confident that they have the best chance of winning.

At this moment, Uchida Shin is also such a mentality.

"The main force of the sweep is in the rear, and our department is not alone."

"Only when our troops rush and fight, without giving the Eighth Route any respite, and cooperate with the advance of the main force, can we destroy the Eighth Route Army in front of us in one fell swoop."

"Besides, do you think that the Eighth Route has the strength to directly eat my entire Kwantung Army brigade in a short period of time?"

The devil staff officer thought about it, and with the strength that Balu was currently showing, this was unlikely, so he nodded, "Hey, Your Excellency the Captain is wise!" ”

...... "What is the situation with the parties?" ”

Wang Huaibao, the temporary headquarters of the Fourth Independent Regiment, asked the communications department, and when he spoke, his eyes were still fixed on the combat map.

The communication soldier said: "Report to the regiment commander, all parties are proceeding smoothly in accordance with the adjusted battle plan. ”

"Part of the troops of the 2nd Battalion, together with local and militia comrades, are fighting against the Uchida Brigade from the center line, and gradually luring the Uchida Brigade to go deeper."

"The first battalion, together with the rest of the second battalion, will be able to complete the offensive deployment on the left flank of the Japanese Uchida Brigade immediately."

"The main force of the third battalion, including the main force of the fourth battalion that quickly detoured, will be able to complete the offensive deployment on the right flank of the Uchida brigade in less than twenty minutes."

"In addition, the commando team has also been contacted, and after learning of the adjustment of the combat order, Captain Duan said that he will lead the commando team to carry out the beheading operation of the main security army officers in the main county of the Japanese army."

"Okay, if you want to kill, you should kill him and he's bleeding!"

Wang Huaibao was very pleased with the efficient operational adjustment and deployment of the various battalions.

"How's the reinforcements?"

"The regiment commander can rest assured, with the cooperation of local troops and militia comrades, plus the main combat troops we have dispatched, this time we have taken out all our family funds.

Along the way of the Japanese army's main force's advance, our troops who had made a detour in advance were laying a large number of mines to block the advance of the Japanese army along the way.

Buy time for the annihilation of the Uchida Brigade of the Japanese Army. ”

Wang Huaibao said: "Tell the blocking troops to buy me two hours at all costs."

Within two hours, Lao Tzu will definitely eat this dog's Kwantung Army Brigade! ”

"Yes!"
