under fire

Chapter 12
The two eight-road giants walked on the muddy wasteland, which was still a crop field a year ago. Behind them, a large group of people also strode forward in the direction of the two in front.

The four two-person teams on the front and back of the team were also heading north. They were different from the brigade, only carrying guns and combat gear.

The people in the team were carrying stretchers, leading a mule cart with a heavy machine gun on top, and sitting in a neutral position full of debris, a braided sky, uncoordinated.

More than 20 horses followed closely behind. The messy objects on the horses were very heavy. Almost all the walking people carried two or three guns on their backs, and they carried large and small bags.

A bunker, still burning, was moving further west behind them.

The first direction of this group's march was to the east, and the group of devils who escaped to the south far away from the group were divided into several nights that quickly disappeared to the west.

It was no more than two miles to the east. When the firelight could no longer shine on these people, the night was used to attract the ghost soldiers fleeing from the southwest, and the eighth road turned north at this place.

There are more than 1000 devils and puppet security forces in the west. The speed of the eight-way running is not fast, and there are too many things with them. There are still a few devils still far behind.

A squad of soldiers disappeared and stayed, and then dissipated into formation and disappeared into the dark night. They had to deal with the devils who were chasing them, and they couldn't let the devils judge the whereabouts of the Eighth Route Army for at least an hour.

The mule was at the front, and he and Ma Liang returned to the team, walking and eating and asking, "Big dog, your grandma's, why are you empty-handed?"

The mule has discarded five cans.

The big dog replied calmly: "I'll replace Ma Liang as the vanguard in a while, so let's rest now."

"Oh my God!" He turned his head to Ma Liang: "You haven't even been on the wheel yet, what about you, Big Dog?" With a look of contempt and envy.

"These new brothers are willing, can you manage it!"

After the big dog finished speaking, he looked at the familiar security forces with satisfaction.

The night was deep, and it was pitch black everywhere. There was no moon or stars in the sky, and it was completely blocked by the dark clouds in the sky, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

The military camp east of Xinglong Town is still a military camp.

The torches were brightly lit on the playground in the barracks, and more than 100 soldiers squatted on the ground next to the Japanese military vehicles. After running back and forth for two days, they didn't get a good night's sleep.

There are more than 100 security forces in Xinglong Town.

There is water on the ground, otherwise these soldiers may all lie on the ground. Commander Wang is roaring. The entire barracks has been evacuated. There is no telephone, no food, and even the telephone lines near the barracks are all sent to the eighth way. Shun away.

Although the security army also has marching stoves and water, but the disgusting Eighth Road poured all the things from the thatched hut into the jars and wells. Isn't this burying people? After that thing has been rectified, can they still drink?Still usable?

The odious Eighth Route Army evacuated the entire barracks. Commander Wang saw that there was not a grain of food left in the barracks, and all the pots in the stove were smashed. Fortunately, they didn't set fire to the barracks, otherwise There will be no place to sleep.

Fortunately, I cooperated with the blockade operation to the north in the early morning yesterday. This was an order issued by the Meixian Public Security Army Headquarters. This time, I can't blame myself.

There is no doubt that the guerrillas can do this.However, it has been half an hour since the machine guns started to sound in the east, and the three brothers who were sent to the east for reconnaissance have not yet come back to report.

There was a bad premonition in my heart, but I didn't get an order in the dark night, and I didn't dare to march at will.

The Guizi artillery captain who followed him is a good gunner, but this march was a battle, and the battlefield arrangement was not bad, but this time I didn't receive an order, so I can't just go wherever the gun is fired, right?I have been hesitating, but these security forces have also sent people to reconnaissance, let's talk about it later.

Commander Wang didn't expect that this group of Eight Roads really came to his station, and he was always uneasy, but he was secretly grateful: fortunately, he was with Taijun, otherwise, if he had settled accounts in the autumn, he would not be able to tell.

In fact, the food is made by the people in the town. It is impossible to say that the police and traitors in the town do not know about this. The police also need to eat. As for where these grains have gone, I also know in my heart. It is serious to take time to get them back. If the common people have nothing, they will also get their grandma.

After venting, Commander Wang asked people to pick and carry buckets to the town to clean the water. This afternoon, he began to deploy defenses from the west. He thought that there were imperial troops in the east, but there was no arrangement for interception in the east. He came back in despair, and so far he hasn't even caught a bite of the hot meal. Now that the Guizi Artillery Captain is here, and he hasn't given an order, Battalion Commander Wang doesn't dare to bring his troops back to Xinglong Town to eat the whole thing.

After roaring, battalion commander Wang asked the deputy battalion commander to continue to lead the soldiers and the Guizi soldiers in the car to stay in the square, and ran to the battalion headquarters to meet the Guizi artillery captain.

There was a map spread out on the table, and the captain of the Guizi Artillery sent a tricycle back to Meixian to receive instructions, and saw the commander Wang coming in: "Wang Sang, the management of your barracks is very bad. Right now, there is no food yet. Eat, you have to hurry, Missi Missi, understand?"

Commander Wang understood that this was the rhythm of the devils wanting to eat: "I understand, it will be fine in a while."

Battalion Commander Wang was not stupid. He asked someone to rectify the water and come back. He wanted to get the water from the devil's car, but he didn't dare.

Battalion Commander Wang glanced at Guizi's map, and after a moment of thought, he could see through Balu's intention at a glance: if Balu goes east to a neighboring county, wouldn't that be courting death? Before he surrendered, he came from the east. Yes, it is impossible to go south, there is only one possibility to go north, bypassing Meixian County to the north and heading west into the mountains is the only way out.

No, didn't he just withdraw from the north, if Ba Lu could know his movements, wouldn't he be drilling from his own gap?But should I say this to the Devils team in front of me who obviously don't have much ability, or should I not say it?
If I said, my brothers haven’t eaten dinner yet, and they will definitely go north again hungry. If they stop the eighth road, they will naturally have nothing to say. Going into Xinglong Town, wouldn't I become an accomplice of Eighth Road? After investigation, I may not be able to keep my battalion commander, and maybe I will lose my head.

I made up my mind, let it go, I think so much shit, listen to the captain of the devil, he will do whatever he says, and he will bear his head high when he is wrong.

The earlier ambitions have long been lost.

The two new puppet soldiers guarding the gate were yawning and leaning against the newly built bunker with their rifles under the dim lantern at the base of the gate.

A puppet soldier patted his mouth, cut his breath into countless segments, smacked his lips, and whispered: "These eight roads can really go to heaven and earth. If we didn't leave last night, wouldn't we be mysterious?"

The other stretched his back: "Don't say it, these eight roads seem to be everywhere! None of the brothers who stayed in the camp have been seen."

"You said, will they be okay?"

"Don't worry, if you get caught by Ba Lu, you won't die, and we didn't do anything bad."

"Isn't it a bad thing to surrender to be a traitor?"

"Shut up, this is the Imperial Alliance Army, you careless, be careful out of your mouth."
