The lightning-fast occupation of Anqing by the Hatian detachment shocked the national capital and also shocked the Japanese military circles.

The original plan of the Japanese army was: let the Botian detachment be the vanguard and engage Yang Sen's 27th Army (as cannon fodder) to contain and weaken the combat strength of Yang Sen's army, and then the 6th Division would divide the troops from Hefei into two routes and move south along the He'an Highway to capture Anqing in one fell swoop.

But now that Anqing has been captured by the Botian detachment, it makes no sense for the Sixth Division to go south. As a result, the 6th Division changed its battle plan and let one of the Sakai detachments advance west to capture Tongcheng.

The Kuomintang troops stationed in Tonggui fled when they heard the news, and the Kuomintang Tongcheng County Government, local militias, self-defense regiments, and other armed forces also hurriedly retreated to Tangjiawan Town, Tongxi Mountain, at the foot of the Dabie Mountains.

On the 14th, the Japanese army easily occupied the county seat again, and then brutally implemented the policy of burning, killing, and plundering in Tongcheng. Tongcheng, the literary capital, known as the hometown of "poetry, writing, etiquette and righteousness", was wrapped in a bloody storm.

Shao Fei led the special combat team to the west of Tongcheng County, to rest in the woods south of a major road. The special operators reported that Tongxian had fallen not long ago.

The pillar sat on the lawn and scolded: "Damn, it will fall in another day, those soldiers of the national army grew up in ****."

The knife leaned against the tree and complained: "Sad~ I heard that Tongcheng County is the hometown of poetry, books and etiquette, and there must be a lot of well-read beauties, but it's a pity~"

The pillar was thrown over with a stone and scolded: "~ You still want a woman at this time." You already have Ruxue, and you've made someone's belly bigger, so wait to go back and be punished. ”

The knife sighed and said, "Brother Zhuzi, where do you understand the bitterness of the knife." Before she got older, Ru Xue was like a docile little sheep, but now she is a shrew, she doesn't let me touch it, she doesn't say anything, and treats me as a slave every day. ”

Shao Fei didn't say a word, leaning against the tree and thinking about things. Now there are three places for him to choose, and these three places are the main battlefields of the future battle of Wuhan.

The first, north of Dabie Mountain, where there are Zhong Bin of the 88th Division and Feng Anbang of the 42nd Army; the second, south of Dabie Mountain, where there is the main force of Li Zongren's Fifth War Zone, where Chen Haotian is; The third, south of the Yangtze River, was where Xue Yue's First Army was located, and the Dian Army was being trained in Chongyang, Hubei.

The pillar asked, "Squad leader, what do you want?" If this fight continues, Wuhan will not want to hold on for a month. ”

Shao Fei replied: "Anxious? The national army has those few cattle people, and Wuhan will not be able to lose it for a while and a half. The Japanese army will also hit Tongcheng and keep the He'an Highway line, and will not advance westward again. ”

There are Yang Sen's 146th and 147th divisions in the west, as well as Dabie Mountain, and of course the devils will not go west. But Wuhan is just across the Dabie Mountain, and if the Japanese army wants to fight Wuhan, they must bypass it from the north or south.

The pillar asked, "Which cowmen?"

Shao Fei replied: "There are Sun Lianzhong and Hu Zongnan on the northern line of Dabie Mountain; The southern line of Dabie Mountain has Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi; To the south of the Yangtze River, there are Chen Cheng and Xue Yue. If the Japanese army wants to enter Wuhan, don't think about going there without killing two or three hundred thousand. ”

The pillar asked again, "Where are we going?"

Shao Fei hurriedly said, "Aren't I thinking? You have interrupted your precious train of thought. ”

Shao Fei's voice just fell, "Bang! Bang! Bang! "Shots rang out from the east.

"Prepare for battle!"

Shao Fei quickly got up and ran in the direction of the gunfire with the special operation.

Come to the south side of the main road. Shao Fei found from a distance that there was a group of hundreds of students, who were being chased by a team of devils.

And those devils are shooting at the sky, because half of the students are women, not only young and beautiful, but also yellow flowers.

Shao Fei ordered: "Knife, run in front of them and lead the students into the woods."

"Order!"

The knife flew away at the same speed.

Shao Fei then ordered: "Xiucai, kill the one with the knife for me."

"Yes."

Xiucai had already raised his gun and pointed it at the devil squad leader.

Suddenly, "Bang! A bullet flew out and hit the opposing commander's head directly.

Xiucai pulled down the bolt of the gun and said with a smile: "You deserve it, tell you to take a knife."

"Bang Bang Bang"

The rest of the team began to shoot, and more than a dozen devils fell to the ground on the spot.

"Withdraw~"

Shao Fei waved his hand, and the others put away their guns and retreated towards the woods behind.

The devils found out from afar that there were only a dozen or so people on the other side, thinking that they were guerrillas dressed in the clothes of the common people. The commander was shot and killed, and more than 30 people chased through the weeds on the side of the road to the woods.

The knife quickly ran to the front of the student team, put on a handsome posture, stretched out his palm, and said, "Stop!"

The student who took the lead hurriedly said, "Stop you!" There are devils chasing us in the back! ”

The knife carried the gun on his shoulder and said with a smile: "It's just a small team of devils, what a big deal." Let's go back and see. ”

The students looked back, and there was not a single ghost on the road, only the corpses of a dozen devils in the distance were faintly visible.

Xiaodao said: "You are safe, go to the woods to rest, and then go on the road."

"Ah~ I'm tired."

When the female students who ran at the back saw that they were safe, they relaxed and sat on the ground with their stomachs covered. It seems that they have reached their limit, and they are completely running with their last potential.

The knife walked up to the girls and said, "Hold on, beauties, it's not safe here."

The girls looked up at the knife and laughed.

"He said we were beautiful women."

"What about you?"

"What about you?"

"I'm ashamed."

The knife shook his head helplessly. This is what Shao Fei taught him, and they must be happy to see that young girls are called beauties. But the times are different, and the minds of beautiful women are also different.

At this moment a gunshot rang out in the woods, and the girls, frightened, stood up again and followed the brigade towards the woods.

"Bang!" "Bang!" “……”

Gunshots rang out all over the woods, and the devils fell one by one. Whether they were in a combined formation, or hiding behind a tree, they were killed by bullets from different directions. However, they could not see the enemy.

It's a hunt. All the team members dispersed and sniped freely.

"Withdraw!" "Withdraw!" “……”

The devils shouted in horror, turned and ran back desperately. However, before they could reach the road, they were already sniped halfway through, and died in disgrace in the grass.

Shao Fei ordered, "Collect ammunition."

The special operators only collect the ammunition they need, and do not want guns and grenades.

It didn't take long for Knife to come over with the students. Seeing the corpses strewn across the woods, the girls screamed in fear; The boys were excited to see the invaders die here.

"Stop screaming! They are aggressors, and they are innocent of death! The student who took the lead shouted, "Great!"

Shao Fei came over with the special combat team and asked the leader: "Students from Tongcheng?"

The leader replied, "Yes." My name is Wu Jie, and you killed all these devils. ”

Shao Fei gave Wu Jie a lot, he was older than himself, and said with a smile: "Yes." You don't look like a student. ”

Wu Jie said frankly: "I'm not here, it's Yan'an who resists the great." And him. ”

Wu Jie pointed to another person beside him and introduced: "His name is Zhou Bangyan, and he studied at the Northwest Military Academy."

Zhou Bangyan saluted Shao Fei and said, "Hello."

Shao Fei returned a military salute and said, "Hello."

Subsequently, Wu Jie told Shao Fei that he and Zhou Bangyan accepted the organizational arrangement, contacted a group of progressive intellectual youths in Tongcheng, formed an anti-Japanese and salvation propaganda team, and carried out anti-Japanese and salvation propaganda work in the urban and rural areas of the county with great fanfare...... The devil captured Tongcheng, and he fled to Tangjiawan in the Huangjia Mountains with his students.

Shao Fei felt helpless, the person in front of him didn't know who he was at all, and he actually got out of his calculations. But Shao Fei can also see that they are full of youthful enthusiasm and patriotic passion.

The enthusiasm and passion of that young man made Shao Fei a little envious. If I hadn't been in the army, I would still be a senior by now. And now, he has to face countless battles, killings, deaths, and blood......
