The atmosphere at the headquarters of the garrison regiment became more and more tense.

Ten days ago, the Japanese puppet army's sweep of the three blockade areas in the second round was successfully completed, and the troops launched a new round of attacks on the hinterland of the garrison base area after only two days of rest, dividing the third round of blockade areas.

At this moment, the nearest Japanese puppet army is less than 30 kilometers away from here, and under the cover of aircraft, a rapid march can be killed in one day.

"Regiment Commander, the blockade ditch and blockade wall that the devils divided the third round of blockade areas have been built, and the specific sweeping time should be in these two days." Hong Linfeng reported very seriously.

"The headquarters of the three separate battalions are in the three blockade areas, and they are ready for counter-sweeping."

Wang Hong then reported: "The problem of maintaining the lockdown area has been solved. ”

"Most of the maintenance presidents have been replaced by our own."

"Although the little devils have caught the vice president of the maintenance club and the captain of the guard team in their hands, and secretly set up the president, but on the bright side, they no longer dare to persecute and squeeze the villagers with as much fanfare as before, and everyone's life is much better."

"In addition, under the organization of the chairmen of the village maintenance associations, the villagers are carrying out production and self-help in accordance with the original policy of the base area, obtaining water by digging deep wells, and cultivating more land during spring ploughing, and the situation is very good."

"The Japanese seem to have taken a fancy to these lands as well."

"Not only did it not prevent the villagers from producing to save themselves, but they were also very cooperative."

"According to the development of this situation, after the spring plowing begins, nearly 40 percent of the land in the base areas and blockade areas can be planted with grain."

"Even if the yield of these lands is reduced due to drought, and the harvest is only 80% of the original harvest, the harvest of grain is enough for the villagers to last for more than half a year."

"When the time comes, the base area will find a way to support them, and the villagers will dig wild vegetables to support themselves, and it will definitely be no problem to survive until next year's autumn harvest."

Li Hao replied in a deep voice: "The Japanese will definitely not let all this grain fall into the pockets of the villagers. ”

"Political commissar, you're right, eighty percent of them are interested in these grains that have not yet been harvested, so they support the village presidents to organize the villagers to produce and save themselves."

"However, even if they have Sima Zhao's heart, it will be a few months later."

"As long as we solve the difficulties in front of us, we will naturally have a way to help the villagers keep these grains at that time."

"Commissar, chief of staff, now we have two things to do."

"First: fully support the villagers in the base areas and blockade areas to produce and save themselves."

"Spring ploughing is coming soon, and we must ensure that the villagers' ration fields have water available, cultivate more land, and alleviate the food shortage in the base areas."

"Second: According to the original battle plan, start the second phase of the counter-sweep, knock out the offensive edge of the little devils, and block them out of Lingqiu."

"The first thing you do is the commissar, and the second thing is that I and the chief of staff are responsible."

The first company of the Wei County Independent Battalion lurked in the mountains less than 15 kilometers away from the stronghold of Guanshan Town, and every day except for training was sleeping, and a month passed in a flash.

At the beginning, only a few platoon commanders complained to themselves that hiding in the mountains as a shrunken turtle was too aggrieved, and if they stayed any longer, their buttocks would grow hair.

Immediately after, the squad leader and the veteran also began to complain.

Later, even the recruits didn't want to stay here any longer, and shouted every day that they wanted to go out of the mountains to kill devils.

Company commander Zhang Cheng was even more anxious than them.

He has always been in contact with the underground party outside the mountain and knows the situation outside the mountain.

After learning that the little devils had established maintenance associations in various villages, and that many soldiers' families were persecuted by them, they wanted to lead their troops out several times, kill these dog traitors, protect the villagers, and avenge the dead villagers.

In the end, he held back under the dissuasion of the instructor.

In addition, the commando team suddenly intervened, killed and stopped killing, defeated the arrogance of the traitors, and replaced the president of the maintenance association with his own people, the villagers were much better, Zhang Chengcai completely dispelled the idea of going out of the mountain, and hid in the mountains to train the troops wholeheartedly.

But the good times didn't last long, as more and more subordinates asked him to fight and asked to go out of the mountains to fight devils, the desire to fight that was suppressed by Zhang Cheng in his heart was aroused again, and his heart began to move.

But Zhang Cheng did not put it into action, it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, and Zhang Cheng still knows this truth.

Every day at dawn, he stared at the gate of the station, hoping that the counterattack order from his superiors would be issued as soon as possible.

"Company commander, the battalion headquarters has an order for you!" The underground party of the joints has finally appeared.

"Isn't it for us to fight back!" Zhang Cheng's eyes lit up and he asked.

The underground party nodded and replied: "The battalion commander orders you to counterattack as soon as possible, find suitable fighters, eliminate more Japanese puppet troops with minimal casualties, beat them to pain, and force the Japanese puppet army on the front line to return to the blockade area." ”

"Great......" Zhang Cheng immediately burst into joy and shouted to the door.

"Correspondent, inform the instructor, deputy company commander, several platoon commanders, and the squad leader directly under you, come to the company headquarters for a meeting immediately, and we can go out to the mountains to fight devils."

Dawangzhuang, Wang Yuanhe successfully became the president of the maintenance association, but he did not have much say in the maintenance association.

The vice president, the captain of the escort, what to do or what to do.

The only change is that they no longer dare to blatantly persecute the common people as before, and allow Wang Yuanhe to take the villagers to dig deep wells in the field to save themselves through production.

After dawn, the deputy captain of the escort team patrolled the three villages under his jurisdiction with three henchmen as usual, keeping an eye on everyone who passed by, and whenever they found strange faces and suspicious people, they would inquire and find excuses to extort some money and food to enrich themselves.

For this, neither the commandos nor Wang Yuanhe had any way.

After all, they are all spies and traitors, and they have little devils behind them, and it is impossible not to take a stitch from the common people like the Eighth Route Army.

When leaving Xiaowangzhuang, in addition to the deputy captain, the three henchmen carried a lot of things, including food, chickens and ducks, which can be described as a full load.

However, this is the end of their good fortune.

"Bang ......"

The crisp sound of rifle fire suddenly sounded behind a bush, and three of the four fell on the spot, and then seven Eighth Route Army troops were seen rushing out of the bushes, rifles in hand, and rushing towards the road like the wind.

"We are the Eighth Route Army, surrender the gun and don't kill!"

The second dog who was still alive was directly frightened, knelt on the ground with a thud, and raised his weapon.

After two minutes, the place is quiet again.

The food, chickens and ducks, as well as the weapons and ammunition they had brought out of the village, were all taken away.

After confirming that the Eighth Route Army had gone far, the spies kneeling on the ground dared to get up from the ground and fled to the Dawangzhuang Maintenance Association like a lost dog.

The stronghold of Wanfeng Village is the nearest stronghold of the Japanese puppet army from Dawangzhuang, and two hours later received a report from the Dawangzhuang maintenance committee: seven Eighth Route Army troops appeared nearby, the escort team was attacked, and four rifles were lost.

"Eight Grid Tooth Road, these Eighth Route Army must be the fish that slipped through the net last time, and they must not be allowed to resurrect and destroy the good situation that has been formed in the blockade area with great difficulty." The squad leader of the garrison shouted.

On the spot, he pointed out two combat detachments, a platoon of the puppet army, and personally commanded them to kill Dawangzhuang and kill these fish that slipped through the net.
