In the headquarters of the former enemy of the Eighth Route Army, a telegraph operator translated a telegram, then checked it carefully, then picked up the telegram, handed it to a communications staff officer next to him, and said casually: "This is an urgent telegram just sent by Liu Hong's special combat team, and I will hand it over to the chief of staff immediately." ”

The staff officer took the telegram and glanced at it, turned around and hurried away, and came to the command hall, but did not find Chief of Staff Tang.

One of the staff officers on duty explained: "The chief of staff is too tired and has already gone to rest. ”

The communications staff officer hurriedly said: "Liu Hong sent a telegram saying that they have found the little devil. ”

"What?" The staff officer on duty hurriedly received the telegram, just glanced at it, and said excitedly: "Great, go and inform the chief of staff." ”

Chief of Staff Tang had just fallen asleep when he was woken up, and after reading the telegram, the chief of staff was also overjoyed and hurriedly came to the command hall.

At this time, the command hall became lively again, and the staff officers of various departments had already received the notice and rushed to the command hall to stand by.

Chief of Staff Tang held the telegram in his hand, walked quickly to the front of the sand table, lowered his head and glanced at the sand table, and a staff officer next to him hurriedly pointed to the sand table and said, "Chief of Staff, Shenxian Mountain is here." ”

"Hmm!" Chief of Staff Tang glanced at the sand table, nodded and said: "Immortal Mountain, it turns out that these cunning little devils are hiding here, no wonder we didn't find them, these little devils deliberately lured our attention to the area of Camel Ridge before, but I didn't expect them to quietly hide in Immortal Mountain." ”

A staff officer next to him nodded and said, "Yes! These little devils are too cunning, the terrain around the fairy mountain is steep, and they are all some deep mountains and old forests, there are no villages in this large area nearby, it can be described as a land of poor mountains and bad waters, and few people usually come here, the little devils are hiding here, it is indeed not easy for us to find. ”

Chief of Staff Tang smiled and said: "It seems that this Liu Hong really has two brushes, so many of us have spent so much effort, and we can't find this little devil." Yesterday, I let the little devil put it together, which is really a shame. I didn't expect Liu Hong's special combat team to find this little devil so easily. ”

At this time, a staff officer next to him hurriedly said: "Chief of Staff, since we have found the little devils, then what are we waiting for, quickly send troops over and surround the Immortal Mountain, we must not let these little devils run away again." ”

"Hmm!" Chief of Staff Tang nodded, picked up the telegram again and read it carefully, frowned and said: "Liu Hong said on the telegram that these little devils are not only cunning, but also very vigilant, we should also be careful, if we alarm them in advance, they may escape again." ”

"So what do we do now?" The staff officer asked, frowning.

Chief of Staff Tang lowered his head and glanced at the map, frowned and thought for a while, and then said with a serious face: "Just do what Liu Hong said, immediately send an order, and order all troops to immediately rush to Dazhaiziding, Mao'er Mountain, Daling, Taoyuangou, Jiaochanggou, Guanyin'an, Datai Township and other places, seize the advantageous terrain, block all the important intersections, and surround the area around Shenxian Mountain, and not a single mosquito can be released for me." ”

"Yes!" The staff officer hurriedly answered, and then asked, "Chief of Staff, should the troops start a search immediately after they arrive at the designated location?" ”

Chief of Staff Tang picked up the telegram again, read it carefully, and said with a frown: "What Liu Hong means is that the area around Shenxian Mountain has been surrounded first, and in order to avoid alarming the little devils, do not conduct a large-scale search for the time being. Orders all troops only need to rush to the designated place as soon as possible, block the main passage, prevent the little devils from escaping, and then wait for further orders. In addition, we must especially remind all troops that they must be cautious and cautious, and must not be careless, and must not let go of any path, a mountain, even a cliff, and send me people to guard them closely, no matter what, we must not let this little devil escape. ”

"Yes!" The staff officer hurriedly answered, turned around and hurried to deliver the order.

Chief of Staff Tang looked at the sand table with a smile on his face, nodded with satisfaction and said, "This Liu Hong is really capable!" found this little devil so easily, it seems that Liu Hong was summoned correctly. ”

Chief of Staff Tang's order was quickly conveyed, and after receiving the order, the troops did not dare to carry the slightest carry, and immediately launched an operation, rushing to the designated places respectively, occupying favorable terrain and blocking the road junction.

The Eighth Route Army's movements were also quite rapid, and in just one night, thousands of troops were mobilized to rush to the area of Shenxian Mountain from all directions, and surrounded the area of Shenxian Mountain overnight. Moreover, the reinforcements are still rushing to the area of Shenxian Mountain.

In order to deal with this special combat team of devils, the Eighth Route Army mobilized seven or eight thousand main forces this time, plus the militia and guerrillas in the vicinity, and dispatched a total of more than 10,000 troops. I made up my mind to completely annihilate this little devil.

The sun gradually rose in the east, radiating ten thousand rays of light, instantly dispelling the darkness of the world.

Nobuhiko Kamiya slept well last night, and when he opened his eyes this morning, he felt refreshed, and the tiredness on his body had been swept away.

Nobuhiko Kamiya raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, and casually ordered: "Immediately send an order to send scouts to reconnoiter the situation in the vicinity, and the rest of the people immediately hurry up to eat, and after breakfast, prepare to transfer." This is not a place to stay for long. ”

"Hay!" A little devil next to him hurriedly answered, turned around and went to convey the order.

At this time, another little devil took some food and handed it to Nobuhiko Kamiya, and said with a smile: "Captain, you can eat something first!" ”

"Thank you!" Nobuhiko Kamiya said casually, then took the food and began to gobble it up.

According to Nobuhiko Kamiya's order, these little devils took out food one after another and began to eat breakfast, and after the little devils finished eating, they began to prepare for the transfer, and only after the scouts came back from reconnaissance, they determined the direction of retreat.

"Traces of the main force of the Eighth Route Army have been found in the direction of Maoershan!"

The first piece of information reached Nobuhiko Kamiya, who took a pencil and marked it on the map, not taking the matter to heart.

"Daling, Taoyuangou found traces of the main force of the Eighth Route Army." Soon another piece of information came back.
