under fire

Chapter 737

In the blink of an eye, the sky is bright.
Cloudless, another fine day.

Zhao Zhuang.

All the wounded were carried to the homes of the fortress to recuperate, and the soldiers who transferred the villagers also returned one after another.

Not long after Hu Yi got up, he sat at the broken table in front of the window, holding a broken tea mug and peeling peanuts like a political commissar, looking dazed at the morning light outside the window, with a map on the table.

He was thinking about the latest intelligence the division had sent to the task force.

This trip was not for military reinforcements after a battle broke out in the military region. The puppet army swept up the sub-regional base areas on a large scale. As far as the independent regiment was concerned, it was no doubt that the mantis was in the way of anti-mopping up, and the sub-regional leaders naturally saw this.

Therefore, the work team is only required to bring the soldiers of the independent regiment to wipe out the Huidaomen armed forces who have defected to the devils, which also poses a threat to the puppet army Li Ying in the north, so that the puppet troops who are mopping up do not dare to go south with confidence, and wait for an opportunity to destroy the supply line of the puppet army. Of course, the battlefield The wounded soldiers who were brought down were also within the strike range.

Last night, a group of bandits attacked Wang Sanzhu, who had defected to the devils. More than 30 soldiers died and more than [-] were injured. The casualties were really heavy for the first and second companies!

It aroused Hu Yi's vigilance, the fighting power of Lianlian was not as strong as he imagined!
Taking advantage of the sneak attack, there were still so many casualties. It wasn't that he underestimated the combat effectiveness of the bandits. The problem lay with the independent regiment itself, who overestimated the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the second company.

During the study period, almost all the people I dealt with were the grassroots commanders of the Eighth Route Army. Naturally, their communication and combat capabilities were not comparable to those of the recruits of the first company, and those soldiers who were born in bandits in the second company. Gun warning.

No one can be blamed for this, but it is a bit unexpected that the spies who took refuge in the devils actually warned the bandits and were brave enough to die!

Up to now, the traffic officer sent by Captain Yang to contact Jiulian has not returned. According to the time, there should be news tonight.

The sound of Luo Fugui snoring could be heard from time to time in the main room.

The Westinghouse door curtain was lifted, and footsteps sounded, Hu Yi turned his head and looked out along the doorway, a girl in gray clothes, cloth shoes and hair scattered like chicken coops shook out with her hands upstretched and her neck yawning.

Hu Yi saw it with a smile in his eyes, and put down the broken tea mug in his hand: "Girl, hurry to the East Courtyard, Tie Dan will warm your breakfast for you."

The little girl gave Hu Yi a blank look, then tore off the lunch box on the wall, walked to the door of the hall, and yelled at the big dog who was standing there with the new regiment of soldiers: "Go find Tie Dan!"

"Come on!" Wen Wuquan was overjoyed, took the lunch box and ran away.

The petite body pushed open the door, and took a deep breath beautifully. The sun was warm in the body, bright and dazzling, squinting his big eyes and looked around the yard, then walked out of Hu Yi's window, took out the Comb to deal with loose hair on the top of the head.

After three or two strokes, he tightened the hair rope, a small braid turned up from the back of the head, and once again clenched his fists and looked at Hu Yi: "Hey, are you tired from looking at this broken map every day?"

Hu Yi withdrew his gaze from the braid on the top of the girl's head, and said seriously, "The bandits are powerful, and it will be very difficult to lure them to the south!"

"It's all that idiot Gao Yidao!" The girl waved her little hand resentfully.

"The key is the raid by the puppet army. Our friendly guerrillas have gone to the divisional base area again. If the bandits are lured to our base area, the bandits may not dare to go!"

"Hey, let's say that we are the Eighth Route to the outside world. This is not the guns and ammunition captured by the bandits. Let's pick out the guns that work, and send the rest to the guerrilla headquarters surnamed Du. Although the bandits are not very effective However, they all like to mix sand into their opponents' nests, the bastard surnamed Wang will get news sooner or later! The person surnamed Du has run away, isn't it easy for the bandits to do something in the past?"

"You mean to frame our allies?"

The girl gave Hu Yi a look of contempt: "You... When did I get dirty? Hey, let's just say that we are the Eighth Route! As for whether the bandits believe it or not, who knows?"

Hu Yi shook his head: "Unfortunately, the bandit doesn't have the guts."

"Whether he has the courage is none of our business. As long as his surname Wang dares to come out, we can take the captured bandits and rob our friendly army's food and grass first!"

Hu Yi was stunned: "You can also deal with friendly soldiers, isn't that shameless?"

"Don't forget... Heck, our friendly army attacked our base area the year before last, and the puppet army fled to the partition base area as soon as it was wiped out. How could it be so cheap? This time, it's just a good time to show them some color!"

Hu Yi said with a black line: "I've been talking for a long time, you mean that we are pretending to be Wang Sanzhu's bandits and robbing the grain and grass of the guerrillas of the National Army? We are the Eighth Route Army, we can't do this!"

"Didn't someone from Wang Sanzhu do it? What's the matter with the Eighth Route Army?"

Hu Yi was stunned. He had an obstacle in his heart when his own people beat him. After all, he was also from the national army before, but if he robbed them for food, this matter can be considered. Who told them that the new fifth army had three meals a day? They are all doing it. You have to take care of the little brother who can still see people after a day or two of gruel, right?

Opening his small chest, he stretched fiercely again against the sun, then returned to the main room through the gate, and kicked Luo Fugui who was sleeping on the floor of the main room.

"Your grandma." Luo Fugui cursed for a while, half opened his eyes to see the girl standing in the middle of the room, and muttered: "You unlucky girl, don't even look at what time it is now. I'll sleep a little longer .”

The girl raised her leg and kicked Luo Fugui, who was on the ground and started snoring. This time, the bear only twitched its eyebrows and didn't wake up at all.

Seeing that the mule pretended to be asleep and didn't move, the girl felt bored, so she turned and walked to Hu Yi's east room.

With his little hands behind his back and his face raised high, he sat down on the broken table aggressively: "When will Ma Liang arrive?"

Hu Yi withdrew his gaze from the map: "Estimated tonight!"

Neihuang County Government.

Bandit commander Wang Taigong's lair.

Wang Sanzhu, who had just returned to the city and rushed into the courtyard, was ashamed. Looking at his father and his adjutant who were basking in the sun, he immediately stepped forward to cry: "Father, we were attacked by the Eighth Route Army last night. Only seven of my more than 100 people escaped." I want revenge"

Commander Wang stood up abruptly: "Where did you encounter the attack?"

Wang Sanzhu said hoarsely, "Zhao Zhuang."

Commander Wang patted the short guy next to him: "How dare you break ground on Tai Sui's head, you are really brave!"

Wang Sanzhu picked up the teapot in the yard and poured it into his mouth: "Father, I must avenge this revenge. You gather a group for me first, and I will take people to find the place later!"

Wang Taigong nodded: "Those Tuba Roads who don't have a long memory, the Imperial Association Army swept them away, and he dared to attack our Wang family! I really can't bear it."

Wang Sanzhu hesitated for a moment: "Father, I suspect that this time it might be the guerrillas of the National Army and the Eighth Route Partnership that are plotting against us!"

"What do you mean?"

Wang Sanzhu hesitated for a moment: "Zhaozhuang was originally the territory of the national army guerrillas surnamed Du. After the Imperial Association Army raided it, it was originally agreed that this territory would belong to us. The team that attacked us last night was very powerful. It’s a powerful team, so it’s not like the Eighth Route Army! I suspect most of it was done by the guerrillas of the national army.”

The old Bandit Commander Wang thought for a while: "Don't underestimate the Eighth Route Army, don't forget, they also ambushed Li Yingbu last year!"

"The news came from the inside line we installed in the Eighth Road division. Three days ago, the Eighth Road ran out, so I'm a little bit undecided about this matter!"

"What I mean is that the Imperial Association Army swept away, and the guerrillas of the national army ran away. We went to take over the dozens of villages. Last night, we met the eight roads and let us take over the team we took over?"

"This time the imperial army raided, we took advantage of it, logically speaking, the surname Du must not be reconciled! So I think it is likely that he pretended to be the Eighth Route Army and attacked us."

The old bandit nodded: "You've stunned me, Zhaozhuang is the territory of the guerrillas of the national army, and things are indeed a bit strange."

After Balu was mopped up by devils last year, the base area on the plain became smaller and smaller, and even the bandits looked down on them.
This time they were beaten to death and more than 100 of their own prisoners were captured. The two bandit leaders didn't believe that Balu had that ability at all.
