Chapter 830: Trenches

The mighty procession waded through streams, through fields, through rolling hills, bypassing turrets and strongholds and villages set up by devils.

In the afternoon, the 3rd Guerrilla Detachment quietly went around to a wooded area 10 kilometers south of Qinghe Town and hid itself.

"The guard post is placed 500 meters away, and the rest of the people are hidden and resting, and no noise is allowed." After Yang Ling and his brothers arrived here, they were not ready to leave.

"Tuanzao, aren't we going to fight Qinghe Town, why don't you go around here and not leave."

The troops are majestic and high-spirited, with the instructions and expectations of the villagers, and now the brothers can't wait to fight a battle and eliminate some devils to prove themselves, but now Yang Ling's intentions make Wang Huzi scratch his head.

"Now there are hundreds of devils in Qinghe Town, can we fight this little one?" Yang Ling glanced at Wang's beard, more white and less black.

Wang Huzi scratched his head, looked back at most of the recruits who had only fought one battle, and felt that he was afraid that he would not be able to do it, so he shook his head.

"That's it, since we can't beat it, why bother to hit our heads and bleed."

Now these brothers are the backbone of his development, Yang Ling doesn't want to fight all in a battle, so he won't do the loss-making business.

"But aren't we going out to fight devils, let's go and fight the turret, there are few devils in the turret......"

Wang Huzi praised his idea, he was so fucking smart, he wanted to praise Yang Ling's gaze, but he didn't expect it to be a bigger white eye.

"Is the turret so easy to fight, I'm afraid that before you get close, the machine gun will burst you out." Wu Changqing, the commander of the second battalion, also scoffed at Wang Huzi's idea.

The little devils built turrets at various intersections and dangerous places, in order to jam the passage of various guerrilla units and check on passers-by.

Moreover, the devil's turret is very tricky, and the range of five or six hundred meters around is not to mention the debris that can be hidden, and even the grass has been cleaned up.

In addition, there are generally some strong dark forts built around the turret, and barbed wire fences are dug trenches, which are difficult for ordinary people to approach.

The devil and the puppet army are guarding in the turret, and once there is a wind and grass around the bullets, they will greet the past, and the food and water in the turret are well stocked, unless there is a sharp weapon to attack the fortification, it is a fool's dream to want to hit a strong turret.

"Then we can't nest here, this... How do you explain to the villagers this time? "The king's beard hasn't turned his head yet.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to explain it to the girl who lives in the yard next door to you." Deputy battalion commander Zheng Gang smiled and pierced Wang Huzi's careful thoughts.

The surrounding brothers all laughed, which made Wang Huzi blush for the first time: "Go and go, don't open any pot and mention which pot." ”

Wang Huzi is also in his thirties, who fights all day long, and has long wanted to ask for a daughter-in-law to inherit the lineage.

It's a pity that there is no chance when there is a war, this time it is finally a girl with the right eye, and I also want to take the opportunity to perform, fight a few more devils to earn some rewards, otherwise I am really embarrassed to find someone to propose, so I seem to be more anxious.

"Okay, let's take a good rest, we still have work to do at night."

Yang Ling interrupted their ridicule of Wang Huzi and walked towards the forest with his hands behind his back.

Since Yang Ling didn't explain, the brothers didn't ask much, and set up guard posts around the forest, and the rest of the people crowded into the forest to hide and rest.

The vigilant sentry was disguised as weeds and branches, and the whole person was like a pile of weeds, lying on the ground and blending in with the surrounding environment.

Although northern Jiangsu is located in the Huaihe region, the line of the Huaihe River and the Qinling Mountains is the dividing line between the north and south of China, and it is already mid-November at this moment, and the cold is getting stronger.

The brothers were not allowed to live and cook, and they gnawed on cold dry food in the woods, and the cold air on the ground rushed down their backs.

The forest is only about two miles away from the road, and in these years of chaos, there are not many people walking around blindly.

It wasn't until dark that a few merchants carrying goods and people who went to the town to buy salt passed by, and the patrol of the puppet army passed by twice, but they suddenly did not know that there were hundreds of guerrillas hiding in the woods not far from the roadside.

As soon as it was dark, Yang Ling beckoned the brothers out of the forest and went straight to the highway not far away.

The brothers thought they were going to take advantage of the darkness to fight the devils, but Yang Ling asked the brothers to stop next to the rolling hills next to the road.

"The first battalion went to the opposite side of the road and dug trenches two hundred meters from the road, and the second battalion dug trenches on the spot."

After Yang Ling's order was issued, Wang Huzi and they now understood that this was an ambush to fight the devil, but would the devil come?

They didn't know the bottom of their hearts, but when they saw Yang Ling's confident appearance, they didn't ask any more questions, and beckoned the brothers to walk towards their respective positions.

The black-black hundreds of brothers were all turned into sappers, digging trenches in the low grassy hills on both sides of the road, and for a time the hoes and shovels flew and the earth flew flying.

Most of the whole Jiangsu territory is the river network plain area, only the northern Jiangsu still has occasional undulating hills, but the altitude is also low and pitiful, only more than ten meters, more than 20 meters, can not hide people at all.

The brothers had already been trained in digging trenches when they were training, and now they are digging like sappers, with main trenches, communication trenches, and foxholes.

Wang Huzi and the others guessed that they were going to ambush the little devil here, but the little devil was very shrewd, and the slightest mistake in the ambush would fail.

Therefore, when digging trench fortifications, the new soil dug up was hidden with wild grass, and the trenches were also hidden.

From a distance, it looks no different from usual, but once it gets closer, it will be exposed, but Yang Ling and they will not give the devil a chance to get closer.

The brothers worked until midnight to finish digging several one-line trenches and related communication trenches, and some brothers were busy on the roads and laid some mines.

"Don't go around, be careful that the mines blow you up." In the darkness, there are brothers whispering reminders to those who go out.

Landmines are not only buried on roads, but mostly in deliberately shallow pits on both sides of the road.

"Did you say the little devil would come, let's not work in vain."

Wang Huzi dug the trench and covered it with mud, and leaned against the wall of the trench and found a cigarette to light it.

The deputy battalion commander blacksmith has an almost adoring confidence in Yang Ling: "Commander Yang said that he would come, I think you are now confused by other little girls, and you want to marry a woman and have a baby to live a stable life, have you forgotten how our brothers died?" ”

Wang Huzi saw that the blacksmith's face was a little serious, and handed over the remaining cigarette: "Don't think about it, how can I forget the blood feud of the brothers, I don't want to find a woman to have a baby, but I am worried that it will be gone one day, so that my old Wang family will cut off the incense, so that I can't go to see my ancestors and ancestors." ”

Hearing Wang Huzi's explanation, the blacksmith also lit a cigarette and remained silent, looking at the dark night sky, his face was also dazed, and he didn't know when this battle would have to be fought.
