"Old Ma, I'll discuss something with you!"

"I just want to discuss something with you." Ma Wanzhong said.

"Okay, you say it first." Old nonsense.

"I plan to lead the troops to clean up the little devils and puppet army strongholds in the surrounding towns and villages, and you stay and watch your home."

"Damn, why did you want to go with me, that's exactly what I'm going to tell you, but you stay with one battalion, and I'll attack with three battalions." Lao Hu and Ma Wanzhong thought of going together.

"No, this is what I proposed first, of course I will carry it out." Lao Ma didn't plan to let this mission out.

"Why do you put it forward, you will carry it out, in terms of combat effectiveness, your first battalion is no match for our three battalions, of course, this mission will be carried out by our three battalions." Lao Hu's temper is more suitable for showmanship.

"Our combat effectiveness is not as good as your three battalions, but Brother Fan said that no matter which unit it is, we can't just look at the combat effectiveness, but also compare the quality of all aspects, except for the combat effectiveness, our first battalion is not worse than the third battalion in other aspects."

Lao Ma and Lao Hu are-for-tat, neither of them wants to give up the task of this attack to the other party, it is obvious that this attack on the stronghold in the little devil's township is not very difficult, and it can train the recruits under his hands, which is completely a beautiful difference.

The two battalion commanders were red-faced, and they happened to be seen by Political Commissar Liu: "Two battalion commanders, why are they fighting?" ”

Ma Wanzhong told the matter again, but Political Commissar Liu still didn't understand: "I don't know, what is the purpose of this operation of the two battalion commanders?" It's not just to get angry with the little devils and the puppet army, right? ”

"Political Commissar Liu, I think so, now that the little devil is in the county seat, people are panicking, and we are worried about Brother Fan's safety." Old nonsense.

"But what does this have to do with your attack on the little devil's stronghold, it stands to reason that it should be an attack on the county seat." Political Commissar Liu asked.

"We attack the stronghold of the little devils, and the attention of the little devils will be shifted to us, so that the search in the city will be relaxed, so the safer Brother Fan is in the city." Lao Hu explained.

"There is another reason, the autumn harvest is coming, the little devils and the puppet army will definitely go to the countryside to grab grain, we just hit the Japanese puppet army in the surrounding towns and villages this time, so that they can remember for a long time, and the grain is not so easy to grab." Ma Wanzhong added.

"The two battalion commanders are far-reaching, killing two birds with one stone, I have a suggestion, the two battalion commanders may wish to consider it." Political Commissar Liu understood the intentions of Lao Hu and Lao Ma.

"Political Commissar Liu, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Ma Wanzhong said.

"The two battalion commanders are both to hone their soldiers and increase the combat of the troops, which is a good thing, it is better to send two companies from each battalion and let the company commander lead the team to attack, so that not only can the soldiers be trained, but also the command ability of the company commander below, killing two birds with one stone. The two battalion commanders sat at the headquarters, although they waited for the good news. I wonder what the two battalion commanders think? Political Commissar Liu said what he thought.

Lao Hu thought for a while: "Yes, Brother Fan also cultivated us like this, if we do everything ourselves, the platoon commander below will always be like a child who doesn't grow up." ”

"That's it, we all listen to Political Commissar Liu." Ma Wanzhong also agreed with Political Commissar Liu's idea, "Thank you Political Commissar Liu for helping us solve the problem." ”

"The two brothers are polite, and you just reminded me that the little devil went to the countryside to grab grain, and our Eighth Route Army should also make preparations, so that the little devil can not succeed." Political Commissar Liu said, "I'll go back and write a letter, send the soldiers back to our station, and we will also launch an attack on the stronghold of the little devils, so that we can cooperate with each other and deal a blow to the arrogance of the Japanese puppet army." ”

At this time, Huang Changsheng had already beaten the Japanese puppet army in the stronghold and did not dare to show his head, although the soldiers could not do every shot, but this was even more terrifying. If you think about it, every day someone hides in the dark and practices marksmanship with his head, and no one dares to come out. And these people are not only getting better and better marksmanship, but also more and more good camouflage technology, often three gunshots, the Japanese puppet army can not find out where the gunman is hiding, what is even more infuriating is that this deadly marksmanship, just like shooting a prisoner, firing five shots in a row, the bullet did not come out, and he was scared half to death.

Sometimes he was forced to be helpless, as long as the gun rang out, the puppet army immediately raised a white flag to surrender, and finally Huang Changsheng was helpless. As long as the white flag is raised, Huang Changsheng and the others will immediately change places, because they have no way to accept prisoners at all, so they can only pick the strongholds with little devils to attack.

……

"Company commander, this attack is going a little well!" A veteran couldn't believe that he only fired two shots, and the puppet army all surrendered, and when he was carrying the supplies in the stronghold, the veteran was still like a dream, when did it become so easy to fight.

"I also wondered, at first I thought that they would surrender, who knew that they would take the initiative to surrender!" This is a company commander under Lao Hu, who was ordered to participate in this attack, "You go and interrogate them, what is going on." ”

Under the interrogation of the veteran, the puppet army told the reason, and the company commander and the interrogating soldier couldn't smile bitterly, which means that they can receive these prisoners anytime and anywhere, and it is estimated that they don't need to shoot, just shout a few words and don't kill. Several other company commanders also encountered the same situation, but they were not careless, and there was no shortage of hardcore traitors in local towns.

In the past two days, the commander of the little devil also realized that the situation outside the city was getting worse and worse, and transferred troops from the county seat overnight to support the strongholds in various towns and villages.

Several company commanders had to change their battle plans to prevent the Japanese puppet army in the county town and strongholds from forming a two-sided attack on them. For three days in a row, the little devils in the county town were exhausted between the county seat and the strongholds, not only did they gain nothing, but they also lost two strongholds and a large number of war materials.

"Brother Fan, we have already made contact with the brothers outside the city." Brother Wang came to the cellar to change Liao Fan's dressing.

"How's the situation with the troops?" Liao Fan has been particularly worried about his absence in the past few days and a mutiny in the troops.

"Battalion Commander Hu and Battalion Commander Ma are presiding over the work of the troops, and arranging for the troops to launch an attack on some strongholds outside the city to attract the attention of the little devils......" Brother Wang told Liao Fan the news from the intelligence officer.

"It seems that I have to go back as soon as possible, presumably Lao Hu and they must be very worried these days."

"Brother Fan, what about Miss Fu and those children? Xiao Yue's body is no longer in serious trouble, it is not convenient to live on our side for a long time, in case the little devil searches again, it is too dangerous to stay with us. "Brother Wang cleaned out two houses and temporarily let Fu Hongyu and the children live here.

Liao Fan pondered for a while: "Brother Wang, you call Miss Fu over later, and I will talk to them in person to see if Miss Fu is willing to take the child back to the station with me, and you can bring the map I brought out from the little devil." ”

"Yes, Brother Fan, you rest first, I'll call Miss Fu over, and by the way, notify the brothers outside the city to pick you up." Brother Wang didn't dare to take any more risks to let Liao Fan act alone, so it was better to arrange for people to take Liao Fan out of the city as soon as possible.

After a while, Fu Hongyu knocked on the door and came in: "Brother Fan, this is the map that Brother Wang asked me to bring you, I heard that you are leaving." ”

Liao Fan took the map: "Yes, I still have a lot of things to do, and I can't stay here for a long time." ”

When Fu Hongyu heard that Liao Fan was leaving, she replied a little disappointed: "Oh! ”

Liao Fan spread out the map, of course he didn't notice Fu Hongyu's little emotions, and said while looking at the map: "Miss Fu, I have an idea, I want to ask your opinion!" ”

"Just say it, I'll think about it." Fu Hongyu replied very simply.
