Chapter 221 Crazy
"The division headquarters called back, suggesting that we not go to Pingyuan!"

"What? Show me!" The little girl immediately snatched the telegram and found that she didn't recognize her in a few words, so she quickly handed it to Hu Yi: "Fox, come here!"

"Since the beginning of spring, there has been drought and no rain, and the summer grain harvest has been scarce. The spring drought has continued to develop, and the drought has affected more than a dozen counties. In many places, the autumn crops cannot be planted. It can be predicted that the autumn harvest will be very small, and the plains are in short supply! I suggest that your troops stay in the mountains for guerrilla warfare." Hu Yi read out the telegram, and for a company, the division headquarters did not use the tone of orders, rare words.

"I just find it strange that it hasn't rained during this period of time, and I was happy at first, but now things are serious!" Wang Liujin cut in when Hu Yi paused with a serious face.

"In many places outside the mountain, wells have dried up, rivers have stopped flowing, and even drinking water for humans and animals has become a problem....In addition to drought, there are also locust plagues. There are so many locusts that they block out the sky and the sun. It is very rare. The locusts fly over like the sky It's overcast, you can't even see the sun, and wherever the locusts go, not a single blade of grass will be left!" Hu Yi finally finished reading the telegram.

Surrounded by soldiers, they were listening to Hu Yi's deep voice.

The place was dead silent.

Luo Fugui was the first to speak out: "What does this telegram mean, that there is also a food shortage in the plains?"

"We've been in the mountains for almost a month, and it rarely rains even in the mountains, let alone the plains. It's over now!" Company Commander Chen couldn't help but sigh to the sky.

"That's right, I also find it strange that there used to be a ferry on this river, but now let alone a boat, a raft would be enough!" The guerrilla fighter who led the way earlier also hurriedly added.

"Then, Captain Hu, shall we open up the passage into the mountain first?"

"Are you kidding me with our little manpower?" Luo Fugui curled his lips.

Hu Yi was fascinated by the telegram, and for a long time said, "Girl, go and inform the division, just say, let's attack outside the mountain tonight, and let the outside troops attack the devil troops guarding the mountain pass with all their strength." The matter of the gun tower was not just once or twice.

"Boss Hu, you have to think carefully about this matter, do you really want to fight?" Luo Fugui asked in fear.

"Wait until the division reports the deployment of troops in various places!"

The Jiulian sent a request for combat, which shocked a large group of people in the division. Company Commander Hu of the Independent Regiment is really an expert in fighting. He asked him to go into the mountains to find out information, and even took the devils around in the mountains. This is really a war material!
I heard the news from the Ninth Company that the headquarters had broken through to the north, and now they are even asking the Pingyuan troops to cooperate with them in attacking the devil's eastern blockade that has always been impenetrable. However, they only have one platoon of troops, so what will happen? beat?
Could it be that this Hu guy is crazy, but his proposal gave the troops who have been unable to enter the mountain outside the mountain a glimmer of hope. I don’t know where the Jiulian is now. Clear telegrams cannot be sent. As for them asking outside the mountain The distribution of troops is not a big problem. The devils have long known that the Eighth Route Army is everywhere on the plains outside the mountains. The devils have occupied the favorable terrain of the mountain pass and cannot beat them.

During this period of time, the division headquarters has been wandering around in the mountains, and almost ran into the devil's search team several times. Fortunately, the soldiers are familiar with the situation in the mountains, and they are finally safe and sound.

As for the request of the Ninth Company, I also reminded the division headquarters that I had been thinking about how to avoid the encirclement and suppression of the devils, but I never thought that I could concentrate my forces and go directly to the outside of the mountain, tear open the devil's blockade, and then pull the troops outside the mountain back into the mountain , Launch an attack on the ghosts entering the mountain!
Therefore, the division decided to concentrate its forces and launch an attack on the devil's blockade outside the mountain from multiple places!
As for how to arrange it, let's hold a meeting first!
Not long after, the little girl ran over from the telegraph operator again, waving her hand: "Here we come!"

Hu Yi received the telegram: You can break out from anywhere, there are troops everywhere outside the mountain, the battle has started, there is a response!
"What the hell, there are so many people, the general headquarters is surrounded by devils, why don't they break into the mountain?" Tang Dagou asked casually.

The little girl looked disdainful: "You have a good idea, don't you remember? One of our companies can block the well-equipped devils in the mountains. If our people want to enter the mountains, the weapons are no match for the devils. Do you think they Can those old sockets be punched in?"

"It's true, the devils have the advantage of the terrain, we can't beat them at all." Company Commander Chen looked lonely.

"Then what should we do?" Wang Liujin had never encountered such a situation in his military career, so he couldn't explain why.

"Hehe, it's really not easy to fight from outside the mountain to the mountain, but it's not easy to fight from the mountain to the outside." The little girl looked terrified.

"My grandma, the devil must have people in every mountain pass, we only have this few people, let's beat them!" Luo Fugui thinks it's best not to beat them.

Jiulian has been running away, and it has been a long time since he took the initiative to attack the devils in such high spirits. Looking through the binoculars, he watched the devil's team meandering south and slowly disappeared into the mountain depression. Going out of the mountain where the supplementary regiment is stationed, thinking that the main force of the supplementary regiment is still in the mountain, I even dug a hole for them. If they find out, maybe it will bring hatred!
Going to the supplementary regiment defense area, maybe I want to see Su Qing. She is a political officer. According to her work habits, she will definitely not be in the mountains now, and it is more likely that she will be in the supplementary regiment station.

Hu Yi stayed and looked at the map.

The girl stopped beside Hu Yi who was in a trance, and asked in a low voice: "Fox, we are no longer going to the supplementary regiment defense area, are you disappointed?"

Hu Yi glanced at the girl, and asked in a low voice: "What disappointment am I? Why are you disappointed?"

"You are guilty, don't you just want to see the vixen, do you think I don't know?"

"Sister, can you think about it, how do we attack the devil's gun tower at the mountain pass?"

"After hitting so many times, do you still need to think about it?"

"Then tell me, how do you hit me when my eyes are black this time?"

"After dark, let's bluff and beat them up. Those comrades on the plain know we are there, and they will definitely attack with all their strength. Can't we just cooperate from inside to outside?"

"If we can't successfully cooperate with the troops outside the mountain to break through the devil's blockade, won't the enemy behind us follow after the battle starts? Do you think we will be made dumplings by the devil?"

"Then... what can we do?"

"It's all come to this point, we either find a place to hide and be a coward, or gamble!"

Everyone watched Hu Yi muttering to that arrogant girl for a long time,

After a while, Hu Yi got up and gave orders to the generals around him.

"Squad leader Wang, take people down from the cliff first, and scout eastward, and you must find out the deployment of troops guarding Guizishan Pass!" Hu Yi turned to Chen Jishi: "This time I will trouble you, take the half-immortal to send the wounded to the hospital. For the common people in the south, by the way, find two guerrilla fighters who are familiar with the situation outside the mountain!"

The generals who received the mission set off immediately without further delay. Wang Liujin went down the cliff and headed east. Company Commander Chen did not object to Hu Yi's arrangement, and directly led people to carry the stretcher to the south.

The Nine Company was arranged by Hu Yi, and half of its troops were directly removed. Li Xiang held up the binoculars and led people to lie on the mountain ridge to guard against the devils who were still in the village under the mountain ridge. Tang Dagou and Chen Chong stayed on the mountain ridge to watch the scenery.
