Chapter 726 Situation Judgment
Towne County Railway Station.

Engineer Cao Chang was reporting to Major Guizi about the unusual situation on the railway last night: "If the armored train hadn't stopped in time, the bomb on the track would not have blown up the train, but if the sleepers that fixed the track were blown up, the train would have derailed." Very likely."

Looking at the big landmines on the table, Major Devils gasped. He was really lucky for the armored train in the south yesterday.

He turned his head and looked at the instructor of the Imperial Army standing aside who had escaped by chance: "You have a class of Imperial Army, more than 40 Imperial Army, and you have not been able to beat the small group of two hundred people?"

Although he was reprimanded by the major, he was separated from the table, so he didn't get slapped. The ghost instructor stood up straight: "This group of Eighth Routes is extremely powerful. If there is no accident, they are definitely the elite of the Eighth Routes' main force!"

Devils kept coming into the office to report the situation on the battlefield. The Major Commander was not interested in the [-]-something Eight Route Army, so he immediately ordered: "You change into the uniform of the Imperial Association Army and go with the raiding warriors to find out that group of Eight Route Army, understand?"

The devil instructor immediately saluted: "Yes!"

The village is not big.

Empty houses are everywhere.

The common people looked at this group of people wearing the military uniform of the puppet army, all with mist in their eyes.

Xiao Hongying wandered around the village with her pigtails on her head, standing on the sidelines to watch the soldiers of the Second Company dig trenches, dancing her fists for guidance from time to time.

A group of soldiers inquired clearly about the houses where people still lived, and went directly to the house to uncover the tiles and start the renovation.

Carrying water?

There isn't much water in the well, and I'm still picking a fart.

The old and weak women and children in the village were chattering, and the first lady asked the soldier who had just passed the thatch to the roof: "Young man, why don't you leave when you come back?"

"Hey." A soldier scratched his head and smirked, this question couldn't be answered.

In an empty house.

Breaking up the throat-scraping sorghum bun and stuffing it into his mouth, he drank a mouthful of porridge and put it in his stomach. Hu Yi was still swallowed so hard that he rolled his eyes.

Suddenly there were footsteps outside the house, and Hu Yi knew it was Gao Yidao swaying. Wrapped in a marching blanket, he was still lying on the ground covered with reeds and did not get up. His eyes continued to stop at the hole in the roof.

"It seems that you are in a good mood." Gao Yidao looked down at Hu Yi who was on the ground, with a faint smile on his black face, which was a bit strange.

"If you don't come, you should have been doing well."

"Do you want to know how the Huidao Gate popped out?"

"Not interested, that's what Captain Yang and the others want to do."

"Hehe, didn't we come all the way here just to wipe out those armed sects? What the hell are you doing lying here?"

"Reconnaissance is your high commander's business, I'm just offering ideas." Hu Yi knew what Gao Yidao wanted to say, so he didn't bother to answer.

"Then tell me, when will you guys from Jiulian arrive?"

"It's going to be interspersed in enemy-occupied areas... for three to five days."

"You mean that your Jiulian will not be able to catch up with this job?"

Hu Yi didn't speak.

The two fell into silence. After a long while, Gao Yidao finally squatted down and asked, "What do you think about the next step?"

Gao Yidao humbly asked for advice?

Hu Yi was taken aback for a moment, but he was a little flattered. He turned over and sat up, and saw that he was still a bit higher when he squatted down, and both of them had strange expressions.

Hu Yi never expected that Gao Yidao would take the initiative to ask, and thought carefully for a while: "You must first find out where the people from Huidao Sect come from, what is their combat effectiveness, and how are their forces distributed?"

"Why don't we take a few people and go to the occupied area of ​​Huidaomen with the work team?" It seems that Gao Yidao had planned for a long time, and asking Hu Yi is just a pretense.

There was another sound of footsteps, and Captain Yang stepped in.

Hu Yi still didn't get up, and pointed to the reed next to him: "If you don't mind, just sit here!"

Captain Yang didn't care too much, so he sat down and saw a steamed bun on the backpack next to him, he pulled it over and stuffed it into his mouth: "Could it be sent by the common people? We can't take it, they can hold on till now very soon." not easy!"

"Don't worry, I gave you the money." Gao Yidao next to him had a black line on his head, and Luo Fugui was carrying quite a lot of banknotes.

Captain Yang nodded: "The devils and puppet troops on the plain went all the way south to sweep, and the traitors who took refuge in the devils, the landlords and the armed traitors followed closely, and set up camps in various villages to clear the township. Our base area suffered a lot!"

Gao Yidao was stunned for a moment, there is no point in complaining to me: "At present, there are only a few people here, you can figure it out!"

"The Big Knife Society and the Red Spear Society that threaten us the most now, some of them are our people, some of them are people from the national army, and most of them have been recruited by the devils as traitors. Those traitors are what we have to deal with." Yang Yang After the captain finished speaking, he pulled out the map from the bag beside him and unfolded it.

The three of them looked at the map like this, thinking about each other.

"I think that if we turn north tonight, we can take this area directly." Gao Yidao pointed at the map, revealing his confidence: "Take these dozen or so villages."

Captain Yang nodded: "Most of the devil garrison in the county has gone south, leaving only a small group of devil troops in the gun towers on the main roads. There are guns, most people carry machetes, spears, and I totally agree with you!"

Gao Yidao waved his hand: "Then let's study the details of the operation first."

Hu Yi sat on the reed and frowned in thought.

As a reinforcement force, setting up the stage and singing is a matter for the division. He and Gao Yidao only need to sing the play well, and it is not his turn to worry about setting up the stage.

Carrying out reinforcement missions arranged by superiors, since joining the army for more than ten years, has received quite a few similar reinforcement missions, and faced some puppet troops with little combat effectiveness, it seems that it is not an adventure.

As a qualified commander, look at the problem as comprehensively as possible. Apart from military issues, then consider economic or political issues. If the devils deploy heavy troops to sweep up the mountainous areas, it is purely a loss-making business!

Obviously, the devils would not do this. Using the puppet army to raid and then occupying the countryside with the Huidaomen they took refuge in should be a new occupation method that the devils are trying.

After the devils dispatched troops to the Pacific battlefield, there was a serious shortage of troops in the occupied area. It was absolutely impossible for the puppet army to sweep up the Eighth Route Army in the mountains.
War is closely related to economy and economy. Before attending the Anti-Japanese University, he absolutely could not have thought of this. The Chinese people defend their homeland from foreign aggressors, and the main purpose of devils' invasion is to plunder resources!
The instructors of the Anti-Japanese University gave lectures and analyzed the devils thoroughly from all aspects of military, economics, and politics. From the earliest occupation of the three eastern provinces, to the occupation of the North China Plain, and then to attack Shanghai, they have always followed the principle of economic priority.

The guns and ammunition of the puppet army were not brought by the strong wind, of course the persimmons were soft!

Hu Yi wanted to understand this point, such a good weather, idle is also idle, it is a pity not to go to the enemy's war zone for activities.

Gao Yidao was still discussing with Captain Yang how to disguise himself and enter the place controlled by the Huidaomen, and he talked about his joy: "We just need to kill those reactionary leaders, and then gather the Huidaomen's armed forces in one go. After taking down the vast countryside after the devils left, this is our place." world."

Captain Yang turned to look at Hu Yi who had been silent all this time: "Staff Hu, what do you think?"

Hu Yi was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Me? Hehe. I have no objection!"
