The enemy seemed to have discovered them. Before the attack, the Japanese heavy machine guns screamed and fired wildly at them. Yang Jiwei and the soldiers immediately withdrew to hide behind the hill. The Japanese artillery fire did not hurt them at all, but they were only bombarded by the artillery fire.

Streams of flying dust fell on their heads and bodies. Yang Jiwei patted the dust on his body and said to everyone: "As soon as the Japanese artillery fire stops, they will come up soon. Everyone, be ready!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Japs' cannons and heavy machine guns stopped. As Yang Jiwei expected, a large number of Japs and puppet soldiers were like animals letting go of their reins. They roared and ran toward the soldiers' positions.

.In fact, since Japan launched the war of aggression against China, whether in the early days or now, the Japanese devils have never regarded the puppet soldiers as human beings. Every time a war starts, these puppet soldiers are always sent to the front in order to take bullets for the devils.

As soon as Yang Jiwei saw the enemy coming up, he and the soldiers quickly entered the position, seizing the right moment, he shouted: "Drop the bomb!"

"Boom, boom, boom" dozens of hand grenades exploded in the enemy group, and a large number of Japanese and puppet soldiers fell down. Then there was another burst of shooting, and this time the Japanese behind were killed and wounded two or three others.

Ten of them were so frightened that the Japanese and puppet soldiers all lay down on the ground and stopped attacking. The Japanese commander was so angry that he screamed strangely.

Yang Jiwei and the soldiers all knew the Japanese's combat routines. Once the attack was blocked, their usual tactic was to use small artillery bombardment. Therefore, before the enemy could recover, Yang Jiwei ordered: "Comrades, withdraw!"

When the enemy's artillery shells fell on the position one after another, Yang Jiwei and the soldiers had already ran down the mound and onto another mound. They looked back at the enemy's crazy shells being wasted, and the soldiers smiled broadly.

Hua. "Let them blow up. Let's go to Xiemazhuang to meet the leader." Yang Jiwei greeted everyone, and the group of them quickly ran towards the deep mountains in the southwest.

Besides, after Gu Xiaolong led Fu Liguo and several other soldiers to withdraw from the battle, they had already arrived near Xiemazhuang. The leader and his classmates were in Xiemazhuang, and it was Gu Xiaolong who arranged them in a fortress house in Xiemazhuang.

Originally, this place was already in a deep mountain area, where enemies didn't come often, and there were a few soldiers protecting it, so it was quite safe.

However, when they were still one mile away from Xiemazhuang, suddenly, a team of more than 30 people wearing Eighth Route Army uniforms appeared from the corner in front. Seeing that this team reached the corner, they did not know which direction they were coming from.

After leaving, the leader looked around for a while, then asked a few people to go in two groups to explore the road, while the others rested where they were.

Seeing this, Gu Xiaolong hurriedly said to everyone: "It's better to hide, don't make any sound."

They observed this team carefully. Judging from their attire, they were all wearing brand-new Eighth Route Army uniforms. Apart from this, Gu Xiaolong and the soldiers could hardly see any difference between these people and their previous attire.

At that time, Gu Xiaolong was also a little puzzled: Which brother's army is this? Why is there our own team here? What are they doing here? Could it be another team from the mountains to support us?

This series of question marks quickly flashed through Gu Xiaolong's mind. Immediately, some soldiers suggested going over to say hello to the team so that they could find out more about it. But Gu Xiaolong told everyone very vigilantly: "The current situation is very complicated.

We still don’t know the origin of this team, and we must not expose our goals and objectives rashly and easily. Because our escort mission is very important. Do you understand what I mean?”

"Understood." Of course, these soldiers are all selected from the best of each company and have received various trainings. They are all agile, resourceful, brave, intelligent, accurate in marksmanship, and are all-rounders capable of equaling ten.

They observed for a while and found nothing unusual. Gu Xiaolong picked a soldier and called Fu Liguo, because Fu Liguo was young and not easy to attract attention. He said: "You two come with me and test this soldier."

The team is friend or foe."

The two nodded in agreement. He asked Fu Liguo: "Are you afraid?" Fu Liguo shook his head, puffed up his chest and smiled: "Not afraid!"

"Well, very good." Then he said to everyone: "The rest of the people should stay hidden and be ready for battle. Don't expose our goals as a last resort."

Gu Xiaolong, Fu Liguo and the soldier dressed up as ordinary people. Besides, when they performed this escort mission, they were originally dressed as ordinary people. They each picked up a bundle of firewood and carried it on their backs. Since they had been there since last night

Now, they were fighting and running all the way. Several of them were already covered in sweat and their faces were covered with dirt. They looked like people who had worked in the fields.

They climbed over a hill and walked towards the place where the team rested. When they were about fifty meters away from the team, Gu Xiaolong estimated that these people had also seen them, so he pretended

He looked very frightened, turned around and ran back. He whispered to Li Guo and the others: "Quick, run back with me."

They had just taken a few steps back when a shout came from the team behind them: "Hey! Stop! What are you doing?"

The three of them immediately stood still. Gu Xiaolong turned around and replied: "Boss, we went up to work in the mountains and want to go home!"

Gu Xiaolong knew clearly that the team on the opposite side was the Eighth Route Army, but he deliberately called them "boss", which was the "respectful title" people gave to the puppet troops and security forces at the time. He meant to test the opponent by calling them this.

reaction.

But this time it worked really well. At that time, I vaguely heard someone in the team whispering: "Common people, they call us boss."

"Hey, fellows, don't be afraid, we are the Eighth Route Army." Someone who looked like a cadre of the Eighth Route Army shouted to them: "Fellows, come here and ask you something!"

Gu Xiaolong said to the two of them: "Try not to talk when we get there and pay attention."

The two of them understood: "I understand." They still pretended to be scared and timidly walked to the "chief" with their heads lowered.

The man asked: "What are you doing? Which village are you from?" He asked in an easy-going and casual manner, as if he were chatting with acquaintances.

Gu Xiaolong replied with a strong rural dialect from the northern Shanxi area: "We are from Dilin Village. We were working in our own land pulling weeds and picked up some firewood when we returned home."

The man saw that his head was lowered, and he looked like a farmer. He saw no strangers, and there were so many strangers. He smiled with satisfaction and said: "Fellow, don't be afraid, we are the 3rd Independent Regiment of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army."

Yes, we were ordered to perform a response mission."

Gu Xiaolong of the 129th Division certainly knew that as a scout, he not only had to understand the enemy's deployment in various places, but also the deployment and organization of his own troops in various places. He clearly remembered: The commander of the 129th Division was Liu Bocheng.

Xu Xiang was formerly the deputy division commander, Ni Zhiliang was the chief of staff, Zhang Hao was the director of the Political Training Department, and Song Renqiong was the deputy director. However, at this time, the 129th Division had no troops or tasks operating in this area.

Gu Xiaolong immediately heard a lot of loopholes in this person's mouth, because what this person said was all secret at the time, how could it be disclosed to outsiders? What if he encounters an enemy agent? How could this person be so clueless?

Don’t you know any common sense about confidentiality?

It seems that this team is unusual and we must be extra careful. When Gu Xiaolong thought of this, he turned around and winked at the two of them, telling them very clearly: These people are not our own.

Although Fu Liguo was young and had never participated in a fight against the enemy, he was very clever and his brain reflected quickly. He understood Gu Xiaolong's eyes very quickly. He nudged another soldier with his elbow, which meant

Yes: Did you see it?

At this time, I heard the man ask again: "Have you seen our troops in this area?"

Gu Xiaolong raised his head and looked at these people, then hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, I haven't seen them before."

The man nodded reassuringly and asked, "How to get to Xiemazhuang?"

This question surprised Gu Xiaolong and the others. Fu Liguo almost screamed out of fright. Seeing Fu Liguo's face was a little ugly, Gu Xiaolong was afraid of revealing some flaws, so he hurriedly glared at him and asked: "What's wrong? What's going on again?"

Not convinced yet?"

Fu Liguo also hurriedly responded and said, "This firewood just pricked me. It hurts so much."

The soldier said: "Huh, I'm not a big man, but I have a lot of problems. Put down the firewood and let me see where it's stuck?"

Fu Liguo put the firewood he was carrying on the ground, and the soldier lifted his back and took a look. In fact, nothing happened, he was just using it as a cover. Because Fu Liguo was facing the front, his back was stuck in the ground.

Whether it was tied or not, whether it was injured or not, Gu Xiaolong and the "Eighth Route Army cadre" couldn't see it at all.

The soldier looked at his back and deliberately curled his lips and shouted: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, no wonder he screamed, his flesh and skin were all pricked."

Gu Xiaolong took the opportunity to avoid the "Eighth Route Army cadre" who asked him questions, walked over and asked: "Let me see where it was stabbed."

When Gu Xiaolong just walked a few steps away, the "Eighth Route Army cadre" yelled at him a little impatiently: "Hey! What are you doing? I asked you something! Did you hear that? Hey! Go and rest your horse.

How to get to Zhuang?"

Gu Xiaolong didn't look back when he heard the man's cry. He deliberately took two steps forward. The "Eighth Route Army cadre" suddenly became anxious and revealed his true colors. He frowned and looked angry.

, stared and shouted loudly: "Hey! Why don't you answer my question? What on earth do you do? Speak! If you don't tell the truth, I will kill you!"

Haha, I finally tested him out. It turned out that he was a group of wolves in sheep's clothing! Gu Xiaolong glanced at Fu Liguo and told them to be prepared and adapt accordingly. Then, Gu Xiaolong slowly turned around
