"Okay, I'll leave it to you, my warriors will rest with you tonight, I hope you, Master Hu, can provide us with convenience!"

After two days and one night of travel, I don't know if the prisoners are tired, and the soldiers of the special combat team also need to rest.

"You're going to do it tomorrow?" Hu Guoshan asked excitedly, originally he thought that this was a hammer deal, and he had already made a lot of money this trip.

"That's right, so you Lao Hu have to keep our back road as much as possible!"

And these prisoners of war didn't react until they arrived in Heshun County, they had just been captured, and they were immediately rescued again, what happened in the middle. Some officers began to confirm over and over again with the soldiers in Heshun County that they were really safe now.

Only a few people knew what had happened that night, except for a few high-ranking officers, and even the soldiers who were responsible for the placement of prisoners of war did not know what had happened in between, and that such a large number of defeated troops would come to them.

At the same time, Chu Pengtian finally returned to the station, and Chu Pengtian, who had just returned to the station, knelt at the door of the headquarters, hoping that Liao Fan could forgive him.

"Old Lu, take Yingzi to Doctor Fu to rest, and the rest of the people will go back and wait for the military department's handling order!" Liao Fan's face expression.

Looking at Liao Fan's expression, everyone in the command knew that Liao Fan was very angry, although Liao Fan was sometimes very lenient with the soldiers, but as long as he violated military discipline and military regulations, Liao Fan, the king of heaven, would be punished.

Lu Liming glanced at Chu Pengtian, who was kneeling, then shook his head and went to arrange Liao Fan's order.

Liao Fan didn't pay attention to Chu Pengtian, but let Chu Pengtian kneel at the door of the headquarters all the time.

"Chief of Staff Li, how is the situation on Hu Guoshan's side?" Liao Fan asked Li Lingfei.

"Division Commander Hu has already advanced his defense area westward to Xima Township, which is fifteen kilometers away!" Li Lingfei said.

Liao Fan looked at Xima Township on the map, and then said to Li Lingfei: "Tell Lao Hu that he doesn't have to advance westward, the battle line is too long, it is easy to be cut off by little devils, and it will be troublesome for the troops to withdraw, let them clear the enemies on the north and south sides, and just stick to the place!" ”

The little devils in Shanxi were busy with the war on two fronts, and they didn't expect that the five thousand prisoners of war would disappear under their noses like this, and when the battle began, all the units of the Japanese army were aiming at Zhongtiao Mountain, wanting to snatch the first credit, who would care if the prisoners had been arranged to go back.

In the next few days, the prisoners of war as small as a few hundred people and as large as 2,000 prisoners of war were all cut off by the soldiers of the special combat team and escorted to Hu Guoshan's hands.

The commander of the little devils in Shanxi finally sensed that something was wrong, the battle ahead was so fierce, the Chinese army was defeated so quickly, and the supplies he consumed here were so huge, but this battle was almost clear, how could they accept less than 2,000 prisoners of war in logistics.

"Why is there such a small number of prisoners of war? Could it be that the Chinese army is shrinking its line and preparing to give us the final blow? ”

The Chinese soldiers who captured so few actually created a false impression for the commander of the little devils, thinking that they only occupied the positions of the Chinese army and did not destroy the main force of the Chinese army, if this is really the case, this battle will definitely be a difficult bone to gnaw in the end, but why should the Chinese abandon so many positions, is it to lure the enemy deeper?

Major General Miyamoto has become less of a spokesman since he returned to the headquarters from Taihang Mountain, he is the chief of staff of the little devil, and the commander asked him at this time that he must give his thoughts.

"Judging by the progress made by the troops, there should not be such a situation, either our officers falsely reported their exploits, or something went wrong!" Major General Miyamoto replied.

"Ask the troops down there as soon as possible!" Said the commander of the little devils.

Hearing the order of the little devil commander, the staff officers began to call and send telegrams to the attacking troops to confirm the cause of the matter, but the troops were all fighting, and it would take time to review them level by level.

"How are the troops in Xiyang and Pingding Direction preparing?" The commander of the little devil has decided to fight on two fronts, and a few days ago they transported a batch of supplies to Yangquan, and I am afraid that they have all been distributed to all combat units.

"Tomorrow morning, they can launch an attack in the direction of Heshun County!"

Compared with the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, Major General Miyamoto is more concerned about Heshun County and Taihang Mountain, because this is his shame, and if the new 33rd Army is not wiped out one day, then his shame cannot be washed away one day.

"Chief of Staff Miyamoto, I hope that you, as the commander-in-chief of Jindong this time, will take down Heshun County for me and wipe out all the Chinese defenders in Heshun County!" The commander of the little devil said to Miyamoto.

Miyamoto solemnly saluted the commander of the little devil, because this was his path of shame, and he was grateful to the commander for giving him such an opportunity.

The first batch of prisoners of war in the hands of the little devils had already believed in the fact that they had been rescued, and these old soldiers who had just retreated from the battlefield were particularly adaptable, and under Zhao Caizhu's arrangement, they began training the day after they arrived in Heshun County.

However, Zhao Caizhu was a bit conservative and did not issue them guns and ammunition, although these troops asked to fight with them to defend Heshun County. Because in the eyes of these soldiers, the defeat of Zhongtiao Mountain was a great shame, they were captured by the Japanese army on the battlefield without much resistance, and the most hateful thing was to be captured by the formation, so they asked to go to the battlefield to be ashamed.

The little devil's troops have been prepared, at dawn, the Japanese army from Xiyang County came directly to Heshun County, and was divided into two parts from Pingding County, one part attacked Zhangjiayu to cut off the rear road of Hu Guoshan's large army, and part of the Japanese army attacked Wenyuan Village to cut off the connection between the Chinese defenders in Heshun County and Taihang Mountain.

"Report to the deputy division commander, the vanguard of the little devils is less than fifteen miles away from our forward town!" The soldiers at the forward sentry reported to Zhao Caizhu.

"Those who should come still have to come," Zhao Caizhu, who received the information, did not panic, "Communication soldiers, ride to the stone gate to ask for help from Division Commander Liu, and tell Brother Fan about our situation here, the main forces of the Japanese army in Xiyang and Pingding County are all dispatched, and these two counties can take the opportunity to attack." ”

"First battalion commander, you and your troops immediately rushed to Zhangjiayu, this is the only way for the division commander to retreat, as long as the division commander and they do not withdraw, you must defend me no matter what, and bring all the flying thunder cannons in the city!"

Zhao Caizhu passed on the orders one by one in an orderly manner.

At this time, Heshun County, like Xiyang and Pingding County, has become an empty city, although there are now tens of thousands of prisoners of war rescued in Heshun County, but Zhao Caizhu does not know how their combat effectiveness is, and Zhao Caizhu does not want to put all his hope on them unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Boom Boom"

The vanguard of the Japanese army and the troops defending outside the city had already exchanged fire, and at the beginning both sides used their strongest forces, the explosion was deafening, and the soldiers fought bloodily, and the troops charged by the little devils repeatedly approached the forward positions, and were smashed down by the soldiers with grenades.

"Little devil, is this going to be imperative?" Zhao Caizhu watched the white-hot battle in the distance in the telescope, and his heart was shocked.

All his troops were sent out, and at this time, Zhao Caizhu had only one soldier from the guard company by his side as the last reserve.

The placed soldiers heard the rumbling cannon and knew that the battle outside the city was fierce, so they all stood up excitedly and kept asking to go to the battlefield to fight the little devils, but Zhao Caizhu was still unmoved after getting the situation here.

Chu Pengtian had already knelt in front of Liao Fan's command department all night, and Li Lingfei had also persuaded Liao Fan many times to let Chu Pengtian get up, but Liao Fan was like he hadn't seen anything.

"Brother Fan, let him get up, the soldiers who are going back and forth are watching, what does it look like!"

Liao Fan glanced at Chu Pengtian and did not speak, and at this moment, there was a rumbling cannon sound from the west, and the dull sound was like thunder.

"It looks like the little devil can't sit still!" Liao Fan said with a smile, it seems that he had expected this to be the case for a long time.

"Brother Fan, since the little devil wants to cut off Master Hu's back road, do we also cut off the back road of the little devil?" Li Lingfei suggested.

"Our preparations are not sufficient, we have occupied these two counties, and we have no troops to garrison in a short time, but all the little devils have been dispatched, we can consider annihilating these little devils first!"

Liao Fan thought about it, although he is not good at managing the county, but it has been two years since he killed the little devil, and this can be caught.

"Brother Fan, the little devil has mobilized a lot of troops, more than 4,000 people, as well as armored vehicles and tanks, our soldiers have no experience in dealing with these!" Li Lingfei reminded.

"If you don't fight, you will never have experience, besides, didn't we just take a batch of prisoners?"

"This ...... Captive...... Can we ever believe in combat capabilities? ”

"They've already been captured once, do they want to surrender the little devils again? If they do, why should I send someone to save them? It is better to send them directly to the front and give less shame to the Chinese! Arrange a soldier and inform Zhao Caizhu that the prisoners in Heshun County can be used, don't worry about their battle, if they don't want to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, so that they don't have to consume our food in the county town! ”

"Do you want to give an order to Division Commander Liu stationed at the stone gate, and let him support Heshun County?"

"Liu Chundao should know in his heart, if he doesn't know the support this time, he won't be able to catch such a good fighter, and he won't have to be the division commander in the future!"

Liao Fan has already told all the troops to cooperate with each other, if Liu Chundao really doesn't understand what cooperation is, it will be useless to leave him at the stone gate in the future, it is better to remove him as a division commander.

In fact, in addition to the matter of prisoners of war, Liao Fan does not have to worry about the affairs of the troops at all, the situation in Jindong has now been put on the surface, not only Liu Chundao, but even Li Weimin, who is far away in the Beitai Peak Pass, wants to intervene.

"Brother Fan, that... What about Company Commander Chu? Li Lingfei pleaded with Liao Fan, "This time, Company Commander Chu not only sent us back such important information, but also got back so much money, there is no credit and hard work, right?" ”

"Credit? Is this also intelligence? Have you seen such useless information since you came to Taihang Mountain? All that money is also the credit of the special combat team, where does it have anything to do with him, and it is reasonable to violate military orders! Liao Fan said.

"Brother Fan, then you can't let him kneel at the door of the headquarters for the rest of his life, the soldiers outside are talking about it, if it goes on like this, the soldiers should have opinions!" Li Lingfei also considered the overall situation, and what Chu Pengtian did a few days ago, although he disobeyed the military order, but in general, he provided information and made a lot of money by the way.

"Let him in, don't kneel at the door of the headquarters and be embarrassed."
