The blood of the Anti-Japanese War stained the mountains and rivers

Although a staff officer spoke tactfully, he also called out the command mistakes. They retreated too panicked and left the city without setting up anything, so that they turned into what they are now.

"Now is not the time for us to pursue anyone's responsibility. The main thing is what should we do next, should we return to the theater headquarters or find another way out?" Yuan Guangtao, the deputy commander, interrupted the staff officer.

"If we go back to the theater headquarters now, we've lost the battle, leading to the annihilation of the entire army. I'm afraid we will die." The intelligence staff officer Du Jiang bluntly stated the result.

"But if we don't go back, we have nowhere to go. We can't stay in this small village forever."

With the loss of Huaiyin, the troops dispersed, and they are now completely homeless.

"I have a place to go, but I don't know what you guys think."

Looking at the frowning people, Yuan Guangtao, the deputy captain, pondered for a while, and then said.

"Surrender to the devil?" A staff officer immediately shook his head: "We have a deep blood feud with the little devil, even if I die, I will not surrender to the devil."

"Yes, we can't surrender to the devils." Another staff officer echoed.

"You misunderstood me, I mean Nanjing." Seeing the fierce reaction of the staff officers, the deputy chief immediately explained.

"President Wang is still trying to compromise with the devils in Nanjing. The person sent last time has already said that it is just a deal with the devils to save the country. As long as the accumulated strength is reached, it is time to turn against the devils... "Yuan Guangtao, the deputy captain, spoke slowly, watching the changes in the faces of everyone.

Text Chapter 230 Fighting the Bandits

When Yuan Guangtao, the deputy captain, and several other officers gathered in the room to discuss what to do next, a group of bandits from Heilangzhai had already quietly surrounded the village.

That day, Jiao Chong, the head of Heilangzhai, heard that the Subei Guerrilla Corps was defeated by the devils and brought a lot of good things when they broke out from Huaiyin, and he was immediately moved.

As the saying goes, in such an era of wars and turmoil, the bold and the timid will be starved to death, and in the end the leader of Heilangzhai decided to vote.

If this vote is successful, it will not only solve the current food shortage crisis facing the cottage, but also make a lot of money.

At that time, the remnants of the northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps will be swallowed up, and the black wolf village will have people, guns and guns, and it seems that it will not be difficult to dominate the southern mountainous area.

Therefore, in addition to leaving more than 50 people in the village to watch the house, the head of Heilangzhai took more than 200 people to leave Heilangzhai under the cover of night.

It's not that they are too cautious, but that there are many bandits in this area. If people feel that Heilangzhai is empty, others will definitely take advantage of it.

Jiao Chong, the head of Heilangzhai, didn't want his lair to be taken away during his absence, so he came out at night.

This time, their group of more than 200 bandits went to the retreating northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps, so they changed their usual practice of robbing villages when they saw them, and they all went around.

They walked all night and planned to find a village to settle down during the day. Who knew that the bandits who were in charge of inquiring about the news reported that there were soldiers in the village, but the number was small, and they should be the vanguard of the retreat.

Jiao Chong, the head of the Black Wolf Village, immediately decided to eat up the small troops of the Northern Subei Guerrilla Corps, and took two prisoners to inquire about the news.

By such a blunder, Yuan Guangtao, the deputy head of the Subei Guerrilla Corps who finally escaped from the devil's grasp and arrived in this small mountain village, was targeted by this group of gangsters.

The leader of the bandits, Lao Jiu, was in charge of leading the raid. The more than 50 bandits under his command were all Kong Wuli's powerful elites. Over the past year, he even bought and robbed more than a dozen fancy machine guns and equipped them all.

It can be said that these more than 50 bandits are the most powerful force in Heilangzhai. They often walk outside with Lao Jiu, fighting bandits, local powerful armed forces, and puppet troops, and have rich combat experience.

More than 50 ruthless gangsters were divided into two groups, and surrounded the nameless mountain village from the front of the village and from the back of the village.

Although Yuan Guangtao, the deputy captain, got rid of the pursuers, they were not careless. They set up guard posts in front of and behind the village.

It's just that they are out of danger now, and the soldiers who have been fleeing all the way these days have long been exhausted. Although they are at the sentry post, their insight into the changes in the surrounding environment has been greatly reduced.

The gangsters used the trees and the surrounding ridges to touch it silently. When they were only more than ten meters away from the sentry post, they suddenly jumped up and rushed up like a cheetah.

When the sentinel heard the movement and turned his head to look, he saw a group of black shadows approaching, followed by him being knocked to the ground.

Before he could struggle to get up, the sharp blade had already cut into his throat, and a gust of blood rushed out, splashing all over the gangster's face, making the gangster look extraordinarily ferocious.

The gangsters took down several sentry posts silently, and the gangsters who were hiding in the distance immediately swarmed up and rushed towards the village.

The sentinel standing guard in the village was also taken aback when they saw someone suddenly broke into the village with a gun, and hurriedly fired a warning shot.

"boom!"

The muffled gunshots rang out, breaking the tranquility of the small mountain village. The villagers were taken aback for a moment, and immediately ran to their homes. The resting officers and soldiers also grabbed their guns and ran out of the house.

"Da da da— da da da—"

Seeing that their whereabouts were exposed, the gangsters who broke into the village did not hesitate at all, and shot at the sentries who fired warning shots.

"Puff puff!"

The dense bullets swept across the past, the body of the sentinel was beaten and trembled, and a cloud of blood mist submerged him.

"rush!"

The bandit leader, Lao Jiu, was also ruthless, with a grim expression on his face, and rushed towards the village with the bandits.

Yuan Guangtao, the deputy commander, was having a meeting with several staff officers in the room, discussing the way out, when suddenly the sound of gunfire from outside startled them all.

They thought that the devil's pursuers had arrived, so they didn't bother to pack their things immediately, grabbed their guns and ran out of the house.

"Sir! Sir, there are bandits coming in!"

When they had just left the house and walked into the yard, a brother covered in blood rushed in, and the village was already buzzing.

"bandit?!"

When he heard that the pursuers were not devils but bandits, the deputy captain Yuan Guangtao was also taken aback.

"How many people are there?" Yuan Guangtao, the deputy captain, asked hastily.

"Dozens!" replied the brother.

"We have a small number of people, we can't beat them, so we should withdraw quickly!" A staff officer suggested hastily.

"What about the villagers in the village?" Du Jiang, the intelligence staff officer, asked.

After they fled to this village, they heard that they were a team to fight devils, and the village gave them food and drink, otherwise they would have starved to death.

"I can't control that much now, let's run out first." The staff officer who suggested to run anxiously wanted to leave this dangerous place.

"If you want to go, go, we have thrown so many brothers and people to the devils in Huaiyin, I can no longer throw these villagers who gave us food and drink to the bandits!"

Du Jiang, the intelligence staff officer, knew how cruel these bandits were, and would often do things that were worse than beasts, so he was unwilling to abandon the villagers.

At this moment, the sound of gunshots outside came and went, and the deputy captain Yuan Guangtao ordered after thinking for a few seconds: "I will lead a few people to lure the bandits away, and you take your brothers to cover the villagers and run towards the mountains!"

After hearing Yuan Guangtao's words, the intelligence staff officer Du Jiang didn't know what he meant. He obviously didn't want to stay and die.

"Okay!" But Du Jiang, the intelligence staff officer, agreed without the slightest hesitation.

"You guys follow me!"
