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

Staff officer Du Jiang is an intelligence staff officer, not a combat staff officer, so he is not very familiar with the terrain of each area, so they can only take one step at a time.

"Okay, let's take a rest by the river ahead."

Staff officer Du Jiang looked at a river not far ahead and nodded in agreement.

Soon they arrived at a sparkling river, their throats were dry, and they lay down, gulping cold water into their stomachs.

Although there was no food, but drinking a lot of water finally made the hungry stomach feel better, and the staff officer Du Jiang actually burped.

Just as staff officer Du Jiang got up to leave the river, he was stunned as soon as he turned around, because several people dressed in weeds disguised themselves were pointing guns at them.

The other three officers and soldiers who turned around after drinking the water were also stunned, and hurriedly grabbed their guns. Although the bullets had long been exhausted, they still grabbed subconsciously.

"Don't move, if you move again, you will be killed!"

Seeing Du Jiang and the others going to grab the gun, the investigation squad leader of the Patriotic Battalion immediately loaded the bullet with a clatter and let out a cold drink.

Staff Du Jiang and the others didn't dare to move, because no one knew the origin and identity of the other party, and they were worried that they would be shot to death, not to mention that there were no bullets in their guns, so it would be useless even if they held them.

"Brother, which unit are you in?"

The three brothers didn't expect to break out from the bandits, but they capsized in the gutter here. They were all thinking about how to get out, but Du Jiang, the intelligence staff officer, stared at the other party and spoke.

Although the brothers in the investigation team were covered with weeds and branches, they pretended to be savages.

But intelligence staff officer Du Jiang's eyes were very poisonous, and he could still see the color of the other party's camouflaged military uniform.

The investigation squad leader was about to let Du Jiang and the others disarm, when he suddenly heard Du Jiang's question, he was taken aback, and looked at Du Jiang carefully.

"you are?"

When he saw Du Jiang's dirty black and tattered military uniform, he asked with an uncertain expression.

"I'm Du Jiang, intelligence staff officer of the North Jiangsu Guerrilla Command. These are brothers from the guard company."

Du Jiang had already confirmed the identity of the other party by observing the other party's dress, and happily introduced himself.

"What evidence?"

Although the investigation squad leader also saw that the opponent's tattered military uniform was the dress of their Northern Subei Corps, he was still more cautious.

"This is my military officer's card." Intelligence staff officer Du Jiang hurriedly took out his military officer's card from his pocket and handed it over.

"Commander Du, I'm sorry, I misunderstood."

The investigation squad leader checked it out, compared the black and white photos on the military officer's card, and immediately stood up and saluted Du Jiang, the intelligence staff officer.

The two sides confirmed each other's identities, which immediately eased the tense atmosphere.

"Are you also broken up?" Looking at the brothers in the investigation team, Du Jiang asked.

"Counselor Du, we went out to investigate under the order of Chief Zhang, and my large troops are behind." The investigation squad leader replied truthfully.

"Big unit?"

"Yes, the large army led by Chief Zhang who broke out from Huaiyin is right behind."

Hearing that Zhang Liechen, the deputy captain, broke out with a large force, Du Jiang, the intelligence staff officer who thought the northern Jiangsu guerrilla corps had been destroyed, couldn't help but wept with joy.

They fled desperately along the way and almost died in the hands of the bandits. Now that they met a large army, it was as if they had found the backbone again. How could they not be excited.

"Can you take me there, I want to see Vice Captain Zhang."

"Yes, I will send two brothers to lead the way for you."

The investigation squad leader nodded, and immediately ordered two brothers, and took Du Jiang and the others to meet the deputy captain Zhang Liechen at the back.

Text Chapter 230 Five Enemy Situations

Du Jiang, the intelligence staff officer covered in rags and black, followed the two brothers from the investigation team along the path and soon found a large team resting in a field.

When he saw the officers and soldiers of the patriotic battalion armed with guns and the large number of civilians around him, Du Jiang, the intelligence staff officer, was happy and felt guilty at the same time.

At the beginning, they followed the deputy captain Yuan Guangtao and withdrew from Huaiyin City in a panic, leaving countless brothers and people in the city.

Later, when I heard the news that the people in the city did not break out, Du Jiang and the others blamed themselves extremely, thinking that they had harmed the people in the city.

Seeing so many people successfully break out now, they finally feel better.

Soon Du Jiang, the intelligence staff officer, was brought to Zhang Liechen, the deputy captain. Zhang Liechen could hardly recognize that this embarrassed person was Du Jiang.

"Sir..."

Intelligence staff officer Du Jiang stood up and saluted Zhang Liechen. In a short period of time, he encountered many changes and was choked with sobs.

These days, the Subei Guerrilla Corps has encountered many things. Many people have been dispersed, and many people will never see each other again. The deputy captain Zhang Liechen also understands Du Jiang's mood.

"Don't say anything, just come back alive."

Zhang Liechen looked at the distressed Du Jiang, and hurriedly asked for some food to be brought over.

Soon someone brought over water and some dry food. Du Jiang and the others were also very hungry, and they ate voraciously, regardless of their image.

"Why just a few of you? What about the others?"

Although the deputy captain Zhang Liechen was very upset that Yuan Guangtao and the others abandoned the soldiers and civilians in the city and fled alone, but now he had to inquire.

"After we left the city, we walked northward. On the way, we met a group of Japanese and puppet troops. We fought a battle and most of them dispersed. When I followed Yuan Zhang into the mountain, I was attacked by bandits. I managed to stand out. Come on, Chief Yuan and the others are also separated, and I don't know if they fell into the hands of the bandits..."

The intelligence staff officer Du Jiang briefly reported some things that he encountered along the way to the deputy captain Zhang Liechen.

The deputy captain Zhang Liechen expressed sympathy when he heard what happened to them, and when he finally heard that they had encountered bandits on the edge of the mountain, his expression became extraordinarily solemn.

"Tell me in detail how you encountered bandits."

Now Zhang Liechen is in charge of leading the people and logistics units into the mountains. If there are bandits in front, it will be much more dangerous, and Zhang Liechen cannot afford to ignore it.

"There is a group of bandits, I don't know where they came from, the number is about two to three hundred, but the fighting power is not very strong..."

Du Jiang gave a detailed report on the bandits they encountered, which made Zhang Liechen heave a sigh of relief.

If there were only two or three hundred bandits, Zheng Gang's patriotic battalion, which was in charge of guarding them, could handle it. If they encountered stronger bandits, it would be troublesome.

After the vice captain Zhang Liechen asked some more questions, Du Jiang was asked to rest in the team first. As for sending someone to inquire about the vice captain Yuan Guangtao, he made arrangements.

After settled down with Du Jiang and the others, Zhang Liechen immediately held an emergency meeting.

At first they thought they would be fine once they got rid of the devils chasing them, as long as they entered the mountain, now a new problem was in front of them, and Zhang Liechen couldn't be careless.
