under fire

Chapter 752
The maps were all memorized by Hu Yi, Gao Yidao, and Captain Yang.

Captain Yang looked worried: "There's news from the east that there's something wrong with the sub-division's operations there. They revealed their identities when they suppressed the Huidaomen armed forces. Now the bandits must have confirmed our identity as the Eighth Route Army, so the plan has to be changed."

Gao Yidao twitched the corners of his lips: "Now we have more people, more guns, more bullets, and after the bandits are defeated, they will definitely publicize that we are the national army. Even if he says we are the Eighth Route Army, do you think the devils will believe it?"

Hu Yi's face was calm: "Such a big move, no matter what, you can't hide it from the devils! This time it really depends on the reputation of your division!"

Wang Peng next to him couldn't understand: "What do you mean?"

Captain Yang smiled self-deprecatingly: "Everyone knows that on the plains, our division troops are not as good as three guns and eight troops. Most of the team has swords and spears. With such a strong team suddenly appearing, the bandits must think we are the national army." Pretending to be the Eighth Route Army!"

Wang Peng hesitated for a moment: "I got a lot last time, right?"

"Our district has now grown to more than 1 people. Where can we get so many guns?"

Wang Peng nodded: "It's no wonder the superiors want to streamline the administration."

Captain Yang shook his head: "Jane, the higher-ups have asked to reduce the staff of the non-combat troops. Our team still thinks we don't have enough people."

Gao Yidao looked serious: "You even formed a children's regiment for teenagers, next time you have to form a female soldier's regiment."

"Don't make sarcastic remarks here, you can't organize the common people, you can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour."

Wang Peng pointed to the map: ".I think since we are laying an ambush, why didn't everyone dig trenches?"

Gao Yidao waved his hand proudly: "This time we pretend to be pigs, eat tigers, and fight bandits. Those things will collapse at the first touch. If we have to work hard to dig trenches even to beat bandits, can we be called the main force?"

"Look how proud you are, you've just become acting battalion commander and you've turned your tail up?" Wang Peng didn't know Gao Yidao well, but he knew Gao Yidao's temperament, so he wanted to make a joke to lighten the atmosphere.

Gao Yidao was very sensitive to the word agent, and kept getting angry. The man surnamed Wang wore a pair of trousers with Jiulian, and immediately tore his face: "You can? Picking up the bargain behind the Ninth Company, you have been the battalion commander for so long, why can only one company be pulled out, do you still have face?"

This guy surnamed Gao took gunpowder?Wang Peng was stunned.

Captain Yang was also dumbfounded, it seems that these few people have a good relationship!

After a short consideration, I felt that I had to relax: "Then according to the original plan, Battalion Commander Hu will lead the Ninth Battalion to guard here, I will lead the work team to be in charge of intelligence, Battalion Commander Gao will be in charge of the West Road, and Battalion Commander Wang will be in charge of the East Road?"

Hu Yi took a look at Wang Peng: "There is only one company in your battalion. There are too few people and you are not familiar with the situation here. So... you should stay in the village and wait for work. I will take people to the east."

Today's three battalion commanders are here, but in fact only the ninth battalion can be regarded as a strong army, and with the soldiers borrowed by Wu Yan, it is almost three companies.

Except for the wounded soldiers, Gao Yidao has only one company that can fight.

The strength of the Ninth Battalion was there, and Hu Yi had the title of staff officer, so no one objected.

Captain Yang nodded: "I agree with this arrangement. Even if there is an accident and the devils assemble a large-scale security army to encircle and suppress, we can also move east."

Wang Peng really didn't know much about the situation on the plain, so he accepted Hu Yi's proposal.

Gao Yidao was silent and didn't express his opinion, but he didn't object either.

Wang Peng stood up, and solemnly reached out his hand to shake Captain Yang, Hu Yi, and Gao Yidao: "I'll go to familiarize myself with the situation in the nearby villages first, and let the correspondent notify me if the plan changes!"

After finishing speaking, he picked up the military cap on the table and put it on, saluted: "Take care!"

The bandits are about to march out of the city.

At the gate of the county seat, a group of half-grown children were holding paper flowers and preparing to send them off.

I heard that the Imperial Army likes this ostentation the most.

Wang Taigong sat on the top of the city gate.

Wang Sanzhu rode in front of the team and yelled loudly at the team: "Listen to me! The eight roads robbed our territory, clearly to cut off our way of life. We have killed many of them before. We must kill all those who dare to attack our territory, do you have confidence?"

"Yes!" The team replied sparsely and unevenly.

Wang Sanzhu raised his hand holding the saber, intending to slash the neck of the rooster caught by his subordinates.

Maybe it was too much force and cut off the rooster's neck directly. The subordinate was startled, but he was unambiguous, and quickly poured the blood of the chicken into the big wine jar next to him.

Wang Sanzhu waved his hand vigorously: "Let's go!"

A group of people who went out of the city went to the side of the city gate to get bowls and drink strong wine. After drinking it up, they smashed the broken bowls and dishes in their hands on the ground, smashing them, and then went out of the city.

One team after another, excitedly walked out of the gate tower into the spring sunshine.

Messy formations, messy dog ​​fur hats.

Weird outfits, all kinds of guns, red-tasseled guns with big blades.

The procession meandered for two or three miles, coughing in the dust all the way southward, without seeing the end of the city and the end of the city.

After a while, Commander Wang on the top of the city and his son Wang Sanzhu who was walking behind the team gave a few instructions, and with an order, the suspension bridge outside the city gate was closed, and the city gate was slowly closed.

Although the water in the moat has long since dried up, it is still necessary to prevent the Eight Routes from cheating.

Wang Sanzhu, who was dressed in black satin, was riding on a horse, looking at the south with a calm face, and was asking the spies who had just arrived: "Uncle Qi, what's the latest situation?"

Uncle Seven, the spy, took a breath: "The team that attacked us didn't leave, but stayed in the village. It doesn't look like the Balu gang."

Wang Sanzhu was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?"

Uncle Qi hesitated for a moment: "Everyone knows that in order to buy people's hearts, Balu is carrying water and repairing houses when they enter the village, but this group of people did nothing, and they are still demolishing houses!"

Wang Sanzhu was a little confused: "You mean...they might not be Balu?"

Uncle Qi didn't dare to draw conclusions: "This is up to the Commander-in-Chief, I'm not sure!"

Wang Sanzhu turned to look at the old gangster next to him: "Didn't you say that you heard those people say that they are eight ways?"

The old gangster next to him had been listening to the conversation between the two, and when he saw Wang Sanzhu's question, he hesitated for a while: "That person did say that that night. The truth is, you shouldn’t have stayed in that village and never left!”

Uncle Zhongqi hurriedly said again: "We have also received news, I think this matter may be related to that group of people."

Wang Sanzhu waved his hand: "Uncle Qi, don't talk to your mother-in-law, just speak up if you have something to say."

Uncle Qi hurriedly pieced together the news that he had pieced together, but in fact most of it was his guess: "Our brother in the night raid team has received news that the national army has sent a team to bypass the security forces to sweep Line, entered our territory, and the National Army has been at odds with the Eighth Route, I was wondering... Could it be the National Army who attacked us!"

"You mean the national army pretending to be the Eighth Route Army? Then how to explain the Huangshahui?"

"It's very simple. The security forces swept up the Eight Route Army and the guerrillas of the national army on the plain. They were desperate. They may have taken advantage of the loopholes of the security forces and joined forces to move to our side after crossing the security forces' mopping up line."

Wang Sanzhu's face darkened: "You mean, the Eighth Route Army and the National Army may be getting involved again?"

The old bandit next to him shook his head: "If it is the national army, we have to weigh this matter."

Wang Sanzhu asked suspiciously, "Is it so complicated?"

The bandit spy thought for a while: "Young master, this is not an easy matter. Think about it, the commander originally accepted the reorganization of the national army, but later they were beaten away by the imperial army, so we had to vote for the imperial army. In my opinion, the national army Most likely I received the news that you were going out, and wanted to use your life to warn the commander!"

The old bandit also couldn't make up his mind: "The number of the team that attacked us is comparable to that of the guerrillas of the national army, but the guerrillas of the national army have always only reported credit and did not fight."

Wang Sanzhu suddenly thought of something: "Yang Guanyi led more than 3000 congregations of his subordinates to vote for the Eight Routes. Could it be them?"

The old gangster had lingering fears: "It's not like, how could they have such powerful skills? Besides... where did he get so many shell guns?"

Uncle Qi hesitated for a moment: "Then until this matter is clarified, shall we hold off for a while?"

Wang Sanzhu immediately shook his head: "No, the army is going out, and the order must not be changed overnight! I don't care if he is the Eighth Route Army or the National Army guerrillas. We now have the support of the Imperial Army. Since he dares to do the first day of the new year to me, we can do the fifteenth. Besides, There are not many others, so let's just beat those guys who have taken refuge with us, if anyone dares to defy us this time, I will kill them at any time!"
