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

The old smoker shook his head in pain: "We underestimated the devil's defense. Just after blowing up more than a dozen cannons, the devil's reinforcements arrived. Only me and more than 40 brothers broke out, and the other brothers were all finished."

Hearing that Old Smoker and the others had raided the soldiers of the devil's artillery position, Yang Ling was also very sorry. He patted Old Smoker on the shoulder to express his comfort.

"Didn't you stand out to more than 40 people? Why are you the only one?" Qin Shou couldn't help but ask.

Hearing this, the old smoker sighed heavily again, it was a leaky house and it was raining continuously, they were unlucky.

Dingshan's raid on the Devil's artillery position failed, and he had received an order to retreat from the Jiangfang Group headquarters, but Old Smoker was unwilling to retreat in such a mess, and wanted to kill the Devil's car team.

But who knew that this was not a transport team transporting ammunition, but pulling heavily armed Japanese soldiers, and their number 40 brothers kicked onto the iron plate.

Old Yanqiang ran away when he saw that the situation was not going well. If Yang Ling and the others hadn't come to the rescue, he might have confessed. It is even more unclear whether the 40 or so brothers are dead or alive.

Qin Shou shook his head again and again after hearing the old smoker tell about his experience. He originally thought that he was the most unlucky person. Whoever wants to meet someone who is even more unlucky than himself feels much better immediately.

Yang Ling expressed sympathy for what happened to the old smokers. After all, anyone who encountered such a thing would feel very angry.

"Commander, what shall we do next?"

Now the situation is very clear. A large number of devils have arrived in this area. If they stay for one minute longer, they will be in danger for one more minute. Qin Shou is ready to grease the soles of his feet.

Yang Ling knew that Qin Shou was thinking carefully, and would run away as soon as his nose smelled danger, but he had his own considerations.

"There are still two or three hours before dawn. Let's go back and look for those brothers who have been scattered, and gather some of them back if we can't."

Hearing what Yang Ling said, the old smoker showed gratitude.

Qin Shou said worriedly: "But what if we encounter devils?"

"It's pitch black and scary. We are in the dark and the devil is in the light. Could it be that the devil is bullying him?" Yang Dashu became angry when he saw Qin Shou's timid look.

"I said in case, I was also thinking about the safety of the big guys." Qin Shou was seen through his small thoughts, and immediately found himself a step down.

Yang Dashu snorted coldly: "I think you are afraid of death."

Qin Shou wanted to refute, but was interrupted by Yang Ling waving his hand: "Let's go back and look for it, find a place to hide before dawn."

Led by the old smoker, Yang Ling and the others pulled away from the skirmish line and walked back towards the road, preparing to gather up the scattered soldiers and look for the discarded radio station along the way.

Yang Ling and the others walked back for less than 10 minutes, and the vanguard sent out came back to report that something was wrong.

"Hidden!" As soon as Yang Ling finished speaking, the soldiers behind him hurriedly dispersed and hid in the grass by the roadside.

Soon there were a few embarrassed figures rushing up in front of them, huffing and wheezing, and the first one was fat and panting, and was holding a hand-cranked motor in his hand.

"Fat!"

The sudden sound in the darkness frightened Fatty Tian San to stagger and almost fell to the ground, and the people behind were about to turn around and run away.

Seeing Old Smoker come out of the bushes with a gun in his hand, Fatty Tian San patted his chest and said, "Company Commander, you scared me to death, I thought you hit the devil's arms."

Dozens of people came out of the grass, and the fat man immediately became vigilant.

"Don't be nervous, we are all brothers in the friendly army." Old Smoker hurriedly explained.

Yang Ling also stood up in time. He looked at the fat man's body up and down, and was secretly amazed. Other soldiers were sallow and thin due to malnutrition, but this fat man not only didn't lose weight, but gained a lot of weight.

"Fatty, you're getting fat again." Yang Ling stretched out his fist and punched the fat man's chest, and said with a smile.

Tian San looked at the familiar person in front of him, and his jaw almost dropped in surprise: "Vice Lian, aren't you dead?"

But soon he realized that he had said the wrong thing, and scratched his head in embarrassment: "I heard that you were beaten badly, I thought you..."

Yang Ling didn't care, and said with a smile: "The devil who wants to kill me hasn't been born yet, so he's living well."

Fatty was also excited to be able to meet his former comrades-in-arms alive on this battlefield.

"Fatty, where are our other brothers?" The old smoker looked behind Fatty and the others. He was concerned about running for his life just now, and now he is eager to know the situation of the other brothers.

The fat man pointed to the miserable people behind him with gloomy expressions: "The few of us were lying in the grass at the time, and most of the others were beaten to death by the devils. I also saw a few running towards the north, but some The devil has caught up, it should be enough."

At this moment, Old Smoker was also blaming himself, if he hadn't insisted on going to fight some devil's transport convoy, these brothers would not have died.

"Okay, let's go back and look for it." Yang Ling made a quick decision and decided to go back a little further.

Old Smoker and the others failed to attack the devil convoy. Faced with a large number of devils emerging from the car, most of the soldiers who rushed up were killed on the spot. Fatty Tian reacted quickly and rolled into the grass on the side of the road to escape.

Hei Gu rumbling ghosts chased those who fled desperately, but Hei under the lamp didn't notice the grass on the roadside, and the fat man took his life.

Similar to Fatty's situation, several signal soldiers who did not participate in the battle also escaped by hiding in the dark grass in time.

Yang Ling and the others groped back for a while, and retrieved the scattered soldiers. Along the way, they encountered several waves of search teams of devil soldiers. Because it was dark, they all escaped without any risk.

They didn't stop their search until dawn. Following Yang Ling's suggestion, the group hurried north, jumped out of the devil's search area, and hid in a dilapidated village.

Text 2 Chapter Rest and Reorganization

The night gradually receded, the sky turned pale, and the gunshots that had been noisy all night gradually faded away, and the ears were rarely restored to purity.

Yang Ling and the others took advantage of the cover of night to toss through the night, successfully allowing most of the rout to break through the devil's blockade and return to the area under the control of the national army, and rescued the remnants of Old Smoker and the others.

After tossing back and forth all night, they fought fiercely with the devils again and again. At dawn, they rushed dozens of miles in order to jump out of the devils' search area. When they arrived at this unnamed village, each of them was sweating profusely and exhausted.

At night, under the cover of night, they can do whatever they want, but at dawn, there are devils' reconnaissance planes in the sky. In order to avoid being exposed and attracting devils to encircle and suppress them, they can only find a place to hide.

Fortunately, the devil's troops were limited and could only control larger towns and areas along railways and highways. The vast rural areas could not be taken care of for the time being, which allowed Yang Ling and the others to stop and take a breath.

Panting, Yang Ling and the others arrived at the outskirts of a dilapidated village. The village was shrouded in the morning mist and was dead silent. For safety reasons, Yang Ling did not dare to order to enter the village directly.

The village in sight is not large, with only a few dozen households, most of which are made of grass and adobe houses, and there are also brick houses.

I don't know if it was because of the war, but there was no smoke from the kitchen, and there was no movement of chickens or dogs. It was eerily quiet.

"I'm afraid everyone has run away." Qin Shou sanba pointed his gun at the empty village entrance and whispered.

The evil deeds of the devils burning, killing, and looting all the way had already spread like a plague. Coupled with the evacuation organized by government officials, many people had already fled westward with their families. Even those who did not flee mostly found places to hide.

Yang Ling looked at An Jing's face on the village's uncertain face, and guessed in his heart that the people in this village must have fled, otherwise there would be no sound at all, but now that he is in the enemy-occupied area, if he is not careful, he will die He didn't dare to be careless about the end of the group's destruction.

He patted the company commander Qin Shou on the shoulder and ordered in a low voice: "Take a few brothers into the village for a walk—"

Although Qin Shou was very reluctant in his heart, if there was a situation in the village, he and the others would definitely be the first to be unlucky, but since Yang Ling ordered his general, he had to bite the bullet even if he didn't want to.

He gritted his teeth and called out the names of the brothers around him: "Follow me!" After saying that, he bent his body and trotted out of the hiding place with a big [-] cap in his hand.

Seeing a few brothers rushing to the village, Yang Ling waved to Yang Dashu. Yang Dashu nodded knowingly, unfolded the bipod of the [-]-type light machine gun, and aimed the gun at the entrance of the village, ready to fire at any time.

In fact, it was indeed Yang Ling who was too cautious. Qin Shou took a few brothers into the village cautiously. They didn't even see a ghost except for the empty thatched houses.
