Liu Hong glanced up when he heard this, and sure enough, he saw a group of people walking towards this side, and he could vaguely see Commander Lu's burly body in the crowd, walking towards this side with firm steps.

Liu Hong and the others hurriedly stood up, walked up quickly, and walked up to Commander Lu, Liu Hong and the others hurriedly stood upright, raised their hands and saluted a standard military salute.

Commander Lu and other leaders of the military region raised their hands and returned a military salute, and said with a smile on their faces: "Your vanguard fought a very beautiful battle, and once again made great contributions, opening a passage for the main force to break through. With more than 100 people, he annihilated the Japanese tank brigade, captured the stronghold of Beiying Village, which was heavily guarded by the little devils, and successfully tore a gap in the Pinghan Railway. I am proud of you, and I am proud that the Jizhong Military Region can have such elite soldiers and strong generals, and here I only represent our Jizhong Military Region, once again commend your vanguard, and at the same time send a telegram to the whole army to commend your bravery, and report to the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region Headquarters and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters to ask for merit for you. Saying that, Commander Lu stood up and gave a military salute to Liu Hong and the others with a serious face.

Liu Hong and other members of the vanguard hurriedly raised their hands to salute in return, Liu Hong hurriedly said: "The commander is falsely praised, we are really ashamed, if it were not for the full assistance of the independent regiment this time, and the timely support of other brother troops, I am afraid that our vanguard would have been wiped out by the little devils a long time ago, and we would not be able to take the stronghold of Beiying Village." ”

"Haha~!" Commander Lu laughed and said, "Don't be modest, you kid, of course other troops have merit, but your vanguard should be the first to take credit." I heard that you also killed a devil major general? ”

Liu Hong smiled and nodded and said: "I also just listened to the comrades who cleaned the battlefield, only to know that I accidentally caught a big fish, according to the soldiers, the killer of the devil major general named Sato Masao, is the brigade commander of the 110th Brigade of the 133rd Division of the Japanese Army, I want to come to this Beiying Village stronghold should be his temporary headquarters, but this was served by us, this old devil escaped over the wall with a group of officers under his command, and was discovered by us in time, the situation was chaotic at the time, and we didn't have time to check, and we shot it indiscriminately. I reimbursed all these little devils, and after the war, I cleaned up the battlefield and found out that I had killed a devil major general, a big Zuo, two Zhongzuo and three Shaozuo. ”

"I actually killed the old fox Masao Sato, okay! It's just wonderful. Commander Lu nodded happily and said.

The chief of staff next to him also hurriedly said: "No wonder the commander praises you for being a lucky general, not only is you brave in battle, but also this luck is very good, and you inadvertently ended a brigade headquarters of the devil, amazing!" ”

"Let's go! Let's go and see what this old guy looks like? Commander Lu smiled and waved his hand, and then a group of people came to a clearing outside the stronghold.

At this time, there were already soldiers cleaning the battlefield, and the bodies of Masao Sato and others were carried over, Commander Lu lowered his head and glanced at it, Sato Masao's body had been blurred by the machine gun, but his head was not hit, and although his face was stained with some blood and sludge, he could barely see his face clearly.

Commander Lu took a closer look, nodded with a smile and said, "Sure enough, it's this old guy, I saw his photo in the newspaper, I can't be wrong." ”

At this time, a soldier of the Eighth Route Army next to him handed over a saber and said with a smile: "Commander, this is the captured saber of Masao Sato." ”

Commander Lu took the saber, pulled it out with a 'snort', looked at it carefully for a while, nodded with a smile and said, "Good knife!" Sure enough, it's a good knife! Old grandson! Look at it, this little devil's general knife is good! ”

The chief of staff leaned over to take a look, nodded with a smile and said, "Yes!" Although this little devil is not a good thing, the saber he made is a rare good thing! ”

Commander Lu nodded, looked up at Liu Hong, and said with a smile: "Liu Hong! You killed this old devil, and you captured this saber, so you will dispose of it! ”

Liu Hong said with a smile: "Commander, our Eighth Route Army is disciplined, and all seizures must be returned to the public, so you should keep it for yourself!" I think this devil's official knife is beautiful workmanship, and the practicality may not be much better than the devil's adjutant knife, as for comparing with our big blades, it is even more incomparable, although our big blades are not good-looking, but cut up the devils, that's called a cool! This devil's general's knife is a good thing, I think the commander should keep it as a souvenir! ”

Commander Lu laughed and said, "Haha~!" There's some truth to what you kid said. All right! I'll leave this knife at the headquarters, but I don't want you this knife for nothing, I also have something for you, even if it's a reward for you. ”

Commander Lu said and beckoned to a guard behind him, the guard hurriedly walked over, Commander Lu took off a big knife from behind him, and said with a smile: "This ghost head big knife was captured by me on the battlefield before, and its origin is unknown." But it's definitely a good knife, extremely sharp, and I've been fighting in the north and south for some years, the so-called treasure knife is a hero, and today I will give you this knife. As he spoke, he handed the cold and shining ghost-headed broadsword to Liu Hong.

Liu Hong hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Commander, this is your beloved thing, the so-called gentleman does not win people's love." I don't dare to accept such a valuable gift. ”

"What a rambling thing! Let you take it, and you will take it. Commander Lu couldn't help but stuff the big knife into Liu Hong's hand, and said with a smile: "I believe that this big knife is in your hands, so you can make the best use of it, and you can take it with you to cut a few more little devils for me." ”

Liu Hong took the big knife at this time, and shouted loudly with a serious face: "Yes!" Promise to complete the task, I will definitely feed this knife with the blood of devils. ”

At this time, the gunfire in the direction of Pengjiazhuang in the north and Zhoucun Town in the south was more intensive, Commander Lu glanced up, nodded with a smile and said: "Liu Hong, I have ordered the main force to return to the rear of Pengjiazhuang and Zhoucun Town in accordance with your previous proposal, and assist the frontal attacking troops to launch an attack. ”

Liu Hong said confidently: "Commander, rest assured, our army will win this battle." ”
