"And that's not even the most important point." Zhao Jinglin shook his head and said.

"And?" Zhu Yaohui asked in surprise.

"Hmm!" Zhao Jinglin nodded, and said seriously: "Although we are now joining the Eighth Route Army, do you think that our people have become the real Eighth Route Army?" ”

"You are so naïve! Not bad! The Eighth Route Army was good at guerrilla warfare and could survive after moving to the countryside, but what about us? Those of us who do not know how to fight guerrilla warfare at all, and moving to the countryside is a dead end. Zhao Jinglin said very seriously.

Zhu Yaohui couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and said thoughtfully: "Haven't you ever eaten pork and never seen a pig run?" We have been dealing with the Eighth Route Army for so many years, and we are somewhat familiar with some of their routines, can we also learn from them? ”

Zhao Jinglin sighed helplessly and said: "The reason why the Eighth Route Army was able to gain a foothold in the countryside and develop a large base area was because of the support of the common people and the deep affection between the army and the people. But what about us? Two days ago, we were still a puppet army, but now we have changed our name, have we become the real Eighth Route Army? Nominally, this is true, but ordinary people may not buy it. ”

Zhu Yaohui nodded and said, "What you said is not unreasonable, so what should we do now?" Can you only wait here to die? ”

"Waiting to die?" Zhao Jinglin smiled and said, "Why are you so pessimistic! Although the Yamazaki detachment is powerful, but we are not muddy, we have the protection of the city, not necessarily worse than the little devils, if it is a desperate battle who wins and who loses! ”

Zhao Jinglin paused slightly, and then continued: "And only if we have a fierce fight with the little devil in Hengshui, no matter whether we win or lose, at least let the people of Jizhong see our determination to resist Japan and know that we are sincerely resisting Japan, so that they will accept us, and if we want to transfer to rural development in the future, we will get the support of the people." ”

Zhu Yaohui nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, it seems that this battle must be fought." ”

Zhao Jinglin clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "And you must win!" ”

……

On an improvised road, the little devils of the brigade were speeding up their march, and the long line stretched for miles.

An armored car in the team slowly stopped on the side of the road, and a group of little devils immediately surrounded it, fully alert.

The car door opened, and Yusuke Yamazaki stepped out of the car with a gloomy face.

Tanaka Nakasa hurriedly greeted him and said respectfully: "Report to Your Excellency General, the imperial army is only a few dozen miles away from Shen County, and it is expected that it will be able to reach Shen County this afternoon." ”

"How's that rebel army doing?" Yamazaki Yusuke asked coldly.

Tanaka Nakasa hurriedly replied: "According to the information we have received so far, the rebels are hurrying to repair the fortifications in Shenxian and Hengshui. ”

"Oh?" Yamazaki Yusuke raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "So Zhao Jinglin really plans to fight a decisive battle with the imperial army." ”

"For now, it should be like this." Tanaka Nakasa nodded and said.

"I can't help myself!" Yamazaki Yusuke said with contempt: "Just with those of them, they really dare to fight against the imperial army, they are simply looking for death." ”

"Hello! Your Excellency the General is very true. Tanaka Nakazo hurriedly said: "However, according to the information obtained by the imperial army, in the past two days, the Tuba Road lurking in the vicinity is gathering in Hengshui and Shenxian, if Zhao Jinglin gathers the remnants of these Eighth Route Army, the strength will be significantly improved, and the imperial army has to guard against it!" ”

"Humph! A group of dirt and dirt is not to be feared at all. Yamazaki Yusuke said indifferently, "And wouldn't it be better if they were gathered together now." ”

Tanaka Nakasa's eyes rolled, and he immediately understood what Yamazaki Yusuke meant, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency the general, now that these dirt eight roads have taken the initiative to gather together, we just happened to annihilate them in one fell swoop." ”

"Before, they were all hiding, and it was very troublesome for the imperial army to clear them, and it took us so long to finally annihilate them all, but now Zhao Jinglin has helped us, so that we can eliminate the rebels together with these dirt roads." Yamazaki Yusuke said with a sneer, obviously full of confidence in this battle.

"Hello! Your Excellency the General is wise! Tanaka said respectfully.

Yamazaki Ryosuke turned around and glanced at the marching team, frowned and said, "Pass the order, inform all troops to speed up and rush to Shenxian as soon as possible." Order the vanguard to attack the county seat immediately after arriving in Shen County and take the county seat as soon as possible. ”

"Hello!" Tanaka Nakasa replied respectfully.

To the north of Shen County, on the highway about ten miles away from Shen County, a group of little devils is rapidly advancing south.

Just when they passed through a forest, a violent explosion suddenly sounded, and a motorcycle walking in front was directly blown up more than two meters above the ground, and the seriously deformed motorcycle flipped over in the air, and fell to the ground with a 'boom', and the three little devils on the car had already been thrown out fiercely, and they fell on the side of the road a few meters away, and they were all killed on the spot.

"Da Da Da Da~!" At the same time, the roar of the dense machine guns suddenly rang out, and from the woods on both sides of the road, a series of blazing tongues of fire suddenly burst out, and the dense bullets swept towards the little devils on the road like raindrops.

The terrible screams sounded one after another, and the little devil was caught off guard, and was knocked to the ground one after another, killing him on the spot.

The little devils sitting on the truck, shouting loudly one by one, jumped off the truck one after another, and before they landed, a blazing rain of bullets swept over, and by the time they landed, the little devils had turned into corpses.

Then one after another, the snorting grenades flew out of the woods one after another, and smashed down towards the team of the little devils, as dense as hail, and it was roughly estimated that in just a few moments, at least a few hundred grenades fell in the crowd of devils.

"Boom~! Rumble~! Violent explosions sounded one after another, and many little devils were directly blown out, motorcycles were blown to the ground one after another, trucks were also blown up, and some were even blown up on their sides in the ditch on the side of the road.

The battlefield was filled with gunsmoke and chaos, and the little devils were completely blinded, and they were unable to organize effective resistance at all, and most of them had already become ghosts under the gun.

"Kill!" Immediately after the earth-shattering shouts of killing, thousands of Chinese soldiers shouted loudly and slaughtered from the woods, one by one as fiercely as tigers descending from the mountains, and pounced on the enemy on the road.
