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

Hearing this answer, Devil Captain Kasai Sadao was naturally dissatisfied, but after interrogating several villagers in a row, he shook his head and couldn't explain clearly.

"Your conscience is seriously broken!" Devil Captain Kasai Sadao roared angrily without asking anything.

Seeing the devil's captain Kasai Sadao getting angry, Zhang Laizi, the puppet battalion commander who narrowly escaped last night, also threatened and shouted viciously.

"Don't toast and refuse to eat fine wine, if you offend the prince, you will lose your head!"

But despite Zhang Laizi's threats and intimidation, the villagers were determined not to say anything.

"Damn it, it's really hard talking, bring him here and whip him hard, let's see when they can be hard talking!"

Zhang Laizi was also a little distraught, and loudly ordered a villager to be pulled out and whipped.

"boom!"

Zhang Laizi's words hadn't finished yet, when a muffled gunshot sounded outside the village, Zhang Laizi was so frightened that he fell to the ground in a hurry.

The ghost captain Kasai Sadao was also taken aback, he hastily pulled out the pistol from his waist, and hurriedly hid behind a pan.

"Report, the Chinese guerrillas were found outside the village, Xiaohe Sangyusui on duty..." Soon, a panting devil sentry came rushing from outside.

"Baga! Road! Pursue!"

Hearing that the guerrillas had attacked their sentries and even killed one of them, the ghost captain Kasai Sadao immediately turned grim, and gave the order with a fierce look in his eyes.

"Hurry up, don't be dazed, listen to the majesty, chase, chase—" Zhang Laizi also got up from the ground, and shouted with his pistol in hand.

Hundreds of puppet soldiers and more than 100 devils rushed out of Xiaowangzhuang, chasing the guerrillas who attacked them.

And these remaining guerrilla officers and soldiers were deliberately left by Yang Ling to attract the attention of the devils, fearing that the devils would retaliate against Xiaowangzhuang.

Seeing the devils and the puppet army chasing them out, the people of Xiaowangzhuang were all relieved and said to themselves that it was dangerous, but they became worried about Yang Ling and the others again.

"The devil is coming, ready to fight!"

Seeing a few brothers running towards them panting and galloping in the distance, Wang Dongming, who was hiding in an ambush in a grove, shouted in a low voice.

More than a dozen brothers lowered their bodies one after another, put the butt of their guns on their shoulders, pulled the bolts of the guns, and aimed at the path outside the grove.

Soon, several brothers who attacked the devil sentry ran east along the path, and the scattered devils and puppet soldiers also chased them aggressively.

The ones running in front were some ghost soldiers with fierce eyes. They shot while running, and the bullets whizzed past the brothers running in front, which made Wang Dongming break into a cold sweat for them.

"beat!"

Seeing that the chasing devils were within range, Wang Dongming pulled the trigger decisively.

"Bang bang bang-"

Gunpowder smoke wafted from the muzzle, and a row of bullets whized out of the woods, enveloping the chasing devils.

"Pfft-"

"what!"

The ghost soldiers who were chasing did not expect that the grove by the roadside would suddenly fire bullets. The body of the running devil was pierced by the bullets, and he fell to the ground wailing.

"Enemy attack!"

"There are Chinese people in the woods!"

The reaction of the devil soldiers was also quick. The running devil soldiers yelled and fell down one after another, pounced on the dirt pit by the roadside, and then shot them with their guns.

"Whoosh whoosh—"

The bullets fired back by the devil flew over quickly, causing the leaves to fall one after another, like a goddess scattering flowers.

Seeing the bullets flying over his head, Wang Dongming chuckled, and threw a few grenades outside, which exploded rumblingly.

"withdraw--"

Taking advantage of the cover of the smoke from the explosion of the grenade, Wang Dongming and the others carried their guns, turned around and burrowed into the depths of the woods.

The devil beat with thunderbolts for a while, smashing the weeds and leaves to pieces. After seeing no counterattack, the devil's captain Kasai Sadao lifted his head from the pit.

"Your pursuit continues, you surround the woods!"

The devil's lieutenant Kasai Zhenxiong gave instructions to the devil's second lieutenant and the puppet battalion commander Zhang Laizi.

"Yes, yes, Majesty, surround the woods." Zhang Laizi nodded and bowed in agreement.

Part of the devils went out to continue chasing the guerrillas who had run away without a trace.

Under the command of Zhang Laizi, hundreds of puppet troops quickly moved into action, and soon surrounded the small forest.

When the puppet soldiers cautiously got into the woods to start searching, Wang Dongming and the others had already fled.

"Battalion Commander, no one was found—" Soon, the puppet soldiers who searched found nothing but picked up some bullet casings.

The devils brought by the second lieutenant of the devils came back soon, and they also lost them.

"Baga! Baga! Road!"

Seeing the few devil soldiers who died in battle and the panting crowd, the devil captain Lieutenant Kasai Sadao felt that he had been molested.

Yang Ling and the others walked around for a long time, first heading northeast, then turning northwest, after confirming that they had shaken off the devils and puppet soldiers, they turned west again.

At dusk, they arrived at Chenjiawan, their chosen destination, which is located at the junction of Siyang and Huaiyin counties, not far from the canal.

Chenjiawan is located in this large area of ​​rolling hills and mountains, and to the west is a large swamp and reed marsh with a radius of nearly a hundred miles connected to Hongze Lake.

Since the Lanfeng battle troops blasted the mouth of the Yellow River Garden, causing the Yellow River to divert, the diverted Yellow River entered the sea through the Huaihe River, and the water level of the swamp on the west side of Chenjiawan also rose, forming a criss-cross river network that can pass small boats.

A few months ago, the devils' large-scale mopping up and the main forces in the enemy's rear theater smashed the entire northern Jiangsu area to pieces, and the Huaiyin area even fell into the enemy's hands.

In addition to the guerrilla columns under the command of the guerrilla army in this area, the main force of the regular army has moved northward to the southern Shandong area, and the only regular army nearby is the 89th Army in the Dongtai area.

After Yang Ling and the others passed through a dense forest, they saw Chenjiawan located by a small stream. Chenjiawan shrouded in twilight was lifeless and silent.

The group soon reached the village, walking on the potholed streets full of sewage, looking at the dilapidated houses, doors and windows covered with cobwebs on both sides, Yang Ling frowned involuntarily.

"Why does it look like no one has lived here for a long time?" Yang Ling turned to ask the guerrilla Liang Xiaoshan who was leading the way.

At that time, Yang Ling wanted to find a more secluded place to stay in this area, so Liang Xiaoshan recommended Chenjiawan, which was dozens of miles away from Qinghe Town.
