The opening of the bright sword leads a battalion

Chapter 70 Poisoning
After learning that the Japanese army's large troops began to gather and came to the base of the Eighth Route Army...

Although it is still several days before the Japanese army arrives at the base area.But Chu Qi was very disturbed when he arrived. He urged the soldiers of the first battalion to return to the station of the independent regiment of the military division as soon as possible to join the main force.It seemed that only when he joined the big army could he feel a sense of security.

But he didn't know that in order to kill him, the Japanese army specially arranged a whole regiment to attack him.

And just a few days after Chu Qi hurried on his way...

The large Japanese army officially stepped into the base area of ​​the Eighth Route Army and advanced a certain distance.

In this regard, the units of the Eighth Route Army have already made preparations, have evacuated the villagers from the surrounding villages, and carried out military deployment.

But also on that day.

The Sakata Regiment, which had been lost in Guanyun Mountain for a long time, finally found the correct route and arrived near the station of the Independent Regiment of the Military Division. Yamada seemed very happy about this.

"After all, I finally don't have to go back and forth in the mountains anymore."

Yamada thought so.

And hiding the large army in an uninhabited barren mountain around, Yamada led a small team to the vicinity of Weiran Village in person, approaching for reconnaissance.

In his binoculars, in Wei Ran Village, a large number of soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were moving in and out, constantly moving some soil.

These are exactly the independent regiments of the military sub-district that have been digging tunnels continuously until today.

But Yamada didn't know what these soldiers were doing. He looked at it suspiciously for a while, and felt that the Eighth Route Army might be building fortifications, so he smiled contemptuously.

Construction work?hehe.

Not to mention that the machine gun firepower of the Eighth Route Army is far inferior to that of the Imperial Army, but how many shells of the Imperial Army can be blocked by these shabby fortifications?
For the fortifications in front of him, Yamada looked down on him from the bottom of his heart, feeling completely vulnerable.

And the squad leader on the side came forward and asked:
"Chief of Staff, may I ask if we will carry out poisoning next?"

"According to the identification of several traitors, it seems that there is no Chu Qi's troops in this village..."

Hearing this, Yamada smiled contemptuously and said:

"Vote, of course."

"As for whether there is Chu Qi, isn't that just right? Without Chu Qi, the Eighth Route Army in front of us is a mob. Get rid of these guys as soon as possible, so that you and I can save time to find other Eighth Route Army units and gain other military merits!"

The reason why the Sakata Alliance tried their best to lurk into the base area was of course of value.

Here, it already belongs to the relatively deep base of the Eighth Route Army, and the other main forces of the Eighth Route Army are stationed in the adjacent area.

Therefore, even if it is easy to kill the independent regiment of the military division, Yamada will not worry about having no place to gain military merits in the future.

Among other things, the bases of the Independent Regiment, Xinyi Regiment and other troops are only a few days away from here.If you march in a hurry, the speed can be even faster.

Hearing this, the captain nodded.Then he asked:
"Then when are we going to carry out the poisoning? I also ask the commander to give instructions."

After hearing this, Yamada thought for a while and said:

"Just after the cooking team of the Eighth Route Army started work, it happened to be all the poison in the food. By the way, there are some poisons, throw them into the water tank!"

"After the poisoning is finished, the poison will probably take effect tonight, and we will launch an attack when it is dawn."

The team leader nodded when he heard that. Their team is specialized in poisoning. For this reason, they have practiced for a long time to ensure that the poisoning can be successful.

As for the success of the poisoning, the squad leader is still very confident.How can it be rare for the imperial army to be poisoned by mere poisoning?
……

……

And Staff Officer Yamada and the team beside him hid in the distance of Weiran Village, waiting for the cooking team to start working.

A militiaman was rushing to Weiran Village eagerly.

In the pocket of this militiaman, there was a piece of information wrapped in an oiled paper envelope. The source of the information was a friendly person from the Japanese army, Lieutenant Suzuki.

Along the way, oiled paper envelopes were taken over by many militiamen, and it was the seventh baton to be passed on to this baton.

And it was precisely because of some problems in the process of taking over the baton, and some difficulties encountered in the process of leaving the envelope from the Japanese occupation area, that the oiled paper envelope was passed around for a long time, which was actually worse than that of the Sakata United team who was struggling in the mountains and forests. slow.

But right now...the information is finally about to be passed on. I don't know if this hard-delivered internal information will bring any great effect to the Eighth Route Army.

And after another long journey...

As dusk draws near, the cooking squad begins to work, and the devil's poisoning team is ready to move.

Not noticing the ghost poisoning squad that sneaked into Weiran Village, the young militiaman trotted all the way to Weiran Village.

According to this young guy's imagination, his arrival should be greeted by the head of the Eighth Route Army and the sentinels open the way. After all, he brought a detailed information, which is said to be a big shot from Xiaoriren's side. delivered.

But the reality...is quite the opposite.

Before the young man entered the village, he was stopped by two sentries. The sentries each held a three-eight cap in their hands and questioned the young man:
"Stop, who, what are you doing?!"

These two consecutive questions suddenly stopped the young man, and he remembered that when he was interrogated by the Japanese army on the road, he seemed to have lost the things that proved his identity as a militiaman.

As for the oiled paper envelope, due to the special certificate provided by Lieutenant Suzuki, it was not interrogated by the Japanese army.

But...how should I prove my identity now?He heard on the way, and now that the little devils are starting to sweep up, the Eighth Route Army must be under a high degree of martial law.

Thinking of this, the young man was very flustered, but he really couldn't think of anything to do, so he could only hurriedly explain:
"Wait, wait, I'm not a traitor or a devil, but I lost my identity card..."

"I'm here to send information to your chief of the Eighth Route Army, to you... Battalion Commander Chu Qi of the Eighth Route Army..."

Battalion Commander Chu Qi?

Hearing this, the two sentinels looked at each other, and one of them nodded and said:
"Open your mouth, let me see!"

The militia boy hastily followed suit.

Hmm...it doesn't have the protruding big dies of people in the old days.

The sentinel went on to say:

"Okay, take off your shoes and socks, I'll take a look again."

Hearing this, the young man still did the same, and the sentinel took a closer look. Because the young man wore clogs and slippers all the year round before serving as a soldier, his big toe would have obvious forks from other toes.And this is also the best way to distinguish spies from small people.

Naturally, the militia boy doesn't have this kind of thing.

After checking, the sentinel confirmed that the other party was not a small person, and asked:

"What kind of information are you going to pass on? Can you tell me? Battalion Commander Chu Qi is not at the station right now, so if you don't have an ID, I can only help you report to the regiment commander."

The Japanese raid was approaching, and even the ordinary sentinels of the Eighth Route Army became very vigilant, fearing that the other party was a traitor or a spy of a small life.

Hearing this, the militia boy faltered and shook his head, saying:
"No, I can't. This information, my superiors told me, must be handed over to your chief of the Eighth Route Army."

The sentry listened, nodded, and said:
"Okay, then I'll ask the head of the group for instructions, you wait here."

The young militiaman listened, nodded and watched the sentinel leave, thinking that the head of the Eighth Route Army should receive him now.

But he didn't expect... the sentinel went there for a long time, and he didn't come back until everyone else had finished their dinner.

On the contrary, under the night, people kept coming and going in and out of Wei Ran Village.In the distance, a group of people are discussing something together, the voice is very vague, but it seems that something happened.

This made the militia boy himself have a very bad premonition, and shivered a little under the cold wind at night.

"Chu, Battalion Commander Chu..."

"You, when will you come back..."

The militia boy said tremblingly.
