Chapter 1281 Anti-Japanese War Is Not Completely Fighting Devils Face To Face
The underground intelligence organization of the Eighth Route Army is simply unable to confront the devil's intelligence organization.

Neither the Eighth Route nor Chongqing can compare to the intelligence gathering ability of the little devil.

Just relying on not being afraid of sacrifice, or working hard, can't make up for the gap in strength.

As the area occupied by the devils continued to expand, the problem of insufficient troops became more and more obvious.

It was only then that an autonomous region had to be established in an attempt to rule China with China.

The Chongqing government does not pay much attention to the countryside, because there is no profit other than grain collection.

After the war broke out, the vast rural areas became the source of conscription.

The peasants, who were already living in misery, lost their main labor force and were on the verge of bankruptcy.

The Eighth Route Army encircled the city from the countryside, and the entry point was precise.

Whether it is the devils or the Chongqing government, they know the methods of the Eighth Route Army, but there is nothing they can do about it.

First of all, eat twice a day; secondly, soldiers and government employees are not paid or paid, none of them can do it.

Hu Yi doesn't pay much attention to money.

He is a soldier, good at attacking, good at ambushes, and good at retreating or calling to escape.

He had never done such a thing as a rescue.

The only experience he had was the rescue and death of the big-nosed traitor captured by the detective team in Sanjiaji many years ago.

There is a first time for many things, and the more you do it, the more you will become proficient.

Saying goodbye to the enthusiastic villagers, the team disappeared into the moonlight.

Although walking in the enemy-occupied area, there are villagers standing guard at every intersection.

Hu Yi even had an illusion that the enemy-occupied area here is no different from the base area!
At least, the work done in the enemy's rear is simply not comparable to that of the independent regiment.
Before dawn, the team met up with the armed task force of the Jizhong Ninth Division of the column that came to meet them.

After the Northeast Army entered the customs in the early years, it used to rest in HD.

HD is connected to Taihang in the west, and is dominated by middle and low hilly landforms, while ravines cross the North China Plain in the east.

After hearing that the troops were led by the staff of the first regiment, and the guard battalion had just been reorganized yesterday, the work leader Guo Xing was a little disappointed.

The secrecy between the various ministries of the Eighth Route Army is tight, and he doesn't know the independent regiment.

There are more than a dozen independent regiments in various parts of the Eighth Route Army, and local county governments have set up independent battalions one after another. Therefore, he did not have high expectations for the more than 100 soldiers who came to the guard battalion.

After asking the staff to arrange the accommodation of the soldiers, they immediately took Hu Yi to the next village for a meeting.

Guo Xing was not in a good mood.

There is a guerrilla brigade with only a hundred people hidden in the village
There is also a company of the Assault Regiment directly under the Military Headquarters of the Autonomous Army that arrived earlier.
This company's equipment is not as good as that of the county brigade, half of the guerrillas and half of the bandits.
Hu Yi didn't know what Captain Guo was thinking at all, so naturally he didn't say anything.

Check the password with the sentinel from time to time along the way.

Enter the village, enter the courtyard, enter the house.

There were four people sitting in the room, and Captain Guo introduced directly: "This is Hu Yi, the staff officer of the First Regiment and the commander of the security battalion."

Pointing to a sturdy man, he introduced: "This is Gong Shaofeng, deputy captain of the county (guerrilla) brigade."

Pointing to a man dressed as a farmer wearing a turban next to him: "This is Minister Liu of the enemy's Ministry of Industry"

Finally, pointing to the young man in his 20s on the other side of the table: "This is Company Commander Wang Dashan of the First Company of the Assault Regiment of the Military Headquarters of your Autonomous Army."

Finally, he pointed to a thin man with a round face and a short stature who was sitting on the road: "This is Director Liu of the Enemy Industry Department of the Southern Hebei Military Region."

Hu Yi saluted one by one.

The introduction is complete.

Wang Dashan stood up and directly pulled Hu Yi to sit next to him: "Hey, that Battalion Commander Hu? Were you in the Ninth Company of the Independent Regiment?"

Minister Liu, who was sitting at the top, froze for a moment: "You don't know each other?"

Company Commander Wang turned his head to look at the political commissar: "I don't know him yet! Hehe, I have admired the name of Commander Hu for a long time. When I saw him today, my reputation is well-deserved."

"I just served as the battalion commander of the Self-[-] Regiment's Guard Battalion yesterday." Hu Yi said calmly, without explaining that the Ninth Company had been promoted to the battalion and that the Ninth Battalion assisted in the reorganization of the Self-[-] Regiment.

"Company Commander Wang, you're making me confused when you say that." Captain Guo was taken aback for a moment. Doesn't this Battalion Commander Hu still have a lot of background?

Wang Dashan said that he was the company commander of the independent regiment. According to normal circumstances, even if the main force regiment had three battalions and nine companies, this company commander Hu was ranked ninth, so he must be the worst one, and he was even more uncertain.

Minister Liu nodded to Hu Yi, as if he knew the situation, he waved his hand to keep everyone quiet: "The situation is urgent now, let's come down and discuss what's going on. Captain Guo, Deputy Captain Gong, please tell us what you know first."

"Okay!" Captain Guo nodded, spread out the map on the table, and cut straight to the point: "The superior arranged for Brigadier Li Chenghua to break into the high-level of the Autonomous Army, but the enemy's intelligence organization was all-pervasive, and found out the identity of Brigadier Li. In the name of a meeting, detain Brigadier Li."

Speaking of this, Captain Guo's tone became serious: "The enemy brutally tortured for half a month, cut off Brigadier Li's tendons, and blinded his eyes, but Brigadier Li never admitted his identity. The Japanese Gendarmerie lost patience. Yesterday, it was publicly published in the newspaper that Brigadier Li Tongba Road will be publicly shot at noon today."

Vice-Captain Gong understood some of the situation, and immediately added: "Currently, under the leadership of Captain Wu, the armed workers and the death squad of the County Brigade have infiltrated into the city. We heard that the enemy arranged the execution ground at the Mass Burial Mound at the West Gate."

Minister Liu said in a serious tone: "According to the latest news from the superiors, the enemy has learned that we are preparing to rescue, so this time there is a big variable in the rescue. In other words, the enemy is likely to set a trap."

Captain Guo nodded, pointing to the map spread out on the table: "Now, let me introduce the enemy's strength and distribution.

Garrisoning HD is the first brigade of the independent mixed garrison of the North China Front Army, mainly engaged in static garrison tasks.

The devil garrison is equipped with two tank brigades, a mobile artillery brigade including an artillery squadron and a mountain artillery squadron, five independent infantry brigades, supplemented by cavalry, engineering and other units, mainly equipped with light infantry weapons, a total of more than [-] people. "

Gong Shaofeng next to him was afraid that Hu Yi and Wang Dashan would not understand, so he explained: "Although the devil's garrison troops are far inferior to the enemy's regular divisions in terms of firepower, mobility, and military depot capabilities, their strength is not something that our Eighth Route Army can compete with."

Guo Xing nodded: "Captain Gong is right. Currently, the headquarters of the HD Devil Brigade has a chariot team, an artillery team, and an infantry brigade, with a total strength of more than [-] people."

Guo Xing slid his finger on the map: "Two of the other four infantry brigades of the devil are distributed along the railway, and the other two are stationed in eight counties without railways."

"There are not many devils in the counties, and there are only a squadron of more than [-] people in several counties. The devils seem to have a lot of people, but in fact there is a serious shortage of troops. Once they disperse, they will give us a chance to defeat them."

When Captain Guo said this, he paused for a moment: "However, the number of puppet troops in each county is very large. For example, there are only a squadron of more than 3000 devils stationed in Linzhang, but Guo Qing's puppet army has a brigade of more than [-]. Wei County It's your autonomous army's jurisdiction, and the devils also only arranged one squadron, and the autonomous army's strength is as high as [-] people."

"In addition, the devils arranged for the devils to serve as instructors in the artillery towers, and the strength of the devils in the counties was further diluted. There were even only two squads of devils stationed in many counties. Even under such circumstances, we did not dare to attack casually. The main reason It is the devil's chariot brigade, which can quickly maneuver through railways and highways, and can reach any county or town within two hours."

Captain Guo's words were very concise, and he quickly introduced the situation of the enemy and ourselves.

Minister Liu glanced at the four people at the table: "The current situation is serious, and the superior has issued an order to rescue Brigadier Li at all costs!"

Obviously, in order to rescue Brigadier Li, the superiors did whatever it takes. That is to say, even if all the ministries here are exhausted, the rescue operation cannot be cancelled.

Hu Yi kept thinking, Brigadier Li was disabled, even if he could be rescued, it would be useless.

Moreover, the casualties of the teams participating in the rescue will be very high.

From a military point of view, this approach is simply not desirable.

Clearly, the superiors had deeper considerations.

The Eighth Route Army is behind the enemy lines, and it wants to reorganize the various departments of the Autonomous Army, so it cannot give the image of the various departments.

Therefore, this rescue operation is more likely to reorganize the autonomous army.

Captain Guo mentioned just now that the devils knew that the Eighth Route Army would rescue them, so
It is very likely to head-to-head with a powerful devil.

On a deeper level, if the devil wants to execute Brigadier Li, it is impossible not to be indifferent to his two regiments.
In other words, the devils will definitely attack the group at the same time.
Hu Yi was thinking about something.

Minister Liu began to arrange rescue missions.
　Guo Xing is the prototype of Li Xiangyang with Two Guns.

　　Gong Shaofeng's real name is Gong Shaofeng.

　　Minister Liu has a bigger background.
