Wang Xiaoliang grabbed the little devil's collar, clenched his fist and was about to smash it on the little devil's head, when he suddenly stopped, he shouted loudly: "Ma Ming, are you really Ma Ming?" Wake me up. ”

The eldest brother also stood up, and when he saw Wang Xiaoliang holding the little devil tightly in his arms and shouting, he leaned over and asked, "This little Eighth Route brother, this, this fake little devil is also a member of your Eighth Route Army?" ”

"Big brother, you saved two soldiers of the Eighth Route Army at once, my name is Wang Xiaoliang, I am the deputy commander of the independent battalion of the Eighth Route Army, this is Ma Ming, the commander of the third platoon of the independent battalion, you are really our life-saving benefactor, how can I thank you for this?"

The eldest brother smiled innocently: "Little brother, what kind of independent battalion are you talking about, it is difficult that your soldiers are all child soldiers?" Why do you look like they're all half-grown kids? ”

Wang Xiaoliang laughed and said: "This big brother, I won't tell you, our battalion commander is also a child, but in the entire Jiaodong War Zone, whether it is a little devil or the Eighth Route Army, or ordinary people, as long as the name of Lei Jian is mentioned, haha, there is nothing I don't know." ”

"You, you are the Eighth Route Army that has been destroying the devil's road and bombing the artillery tower on the east bank of the Shahe River in the past few days? My good man, when it comes to this unit, the villagers will give it a thumbs up. ”

The eldest brother continued boldly: "This little eight-way brother, seeing you messing around with the things that the little devils have stirred, I will enjoy watching these villagers, if I ...... again." ”

"Cough, cough, cough, cough ......", the continuous coughing made Ma Ming, who was held in Wang Xiaoliang's arms, almost out of breath.

Wang Xiaoliang heard Ma Ming cough a few times, and quickly grabbed Ma Ming's shoulders and shouted: "Platoon Commander Ma, you have woken up, you kid has a muddy face, I can't see your identity, I thought it was a little devil, and I almost kicked you to death." ”

The eldest brother said with a smile: "This brother has a big life, thanks to your kick that is not fatal, this time it kicked this brother awake, it seems that people's life and death may not be gentle to save people, a big kick can save his life, hahaha." ”

Niu Dali heard this and asked: "Xiaoliang, you and Ma Ming were saved by this big brother, so who is this big brother?" Where is he now? We can't afford to treat people badly. ”

"yes, tell me about it, where is this big brother now?" Lei Jian heard Wang Xiaoliang repeatedly mention the eldest brother who saved people, and couldn't help but ask.

Wang Xiaoliang shook his head when Lei Jian and Niu vigorously asked, and said with a respectful expression: "That big brother, I am afraid that Ma Ming and I will be found out by the little devil and throw away our lives, so I forced the two of us to leave quickly." ”

"You're just leaving?" Niu Dali asked.

"I was also afraid that the eldest brother would be in danger by the river alone, so I persuaded him to leave. Who knew that this eldest brother actually said, 'Let's go, the Eighth Route Army forcibly crossed from the east bank of the Shahe River to the west bank, and there are still Eighth Route brothers in the river who have not come ashore, so I will wait.' ’”

Lei Jian stood up and said to Wang Xiaoliang and Niu Dali: "This is our father and fellow villagers, in order to defeat the little devil, support the Eighth Route Army, this is the people's war, the little devil will fall into the ocean of the people's war sooner or later, the Japanese army will be defeated, and we will realize this wish in a few years." ”

Wang Xiaoliang said in disbelief: "Battalion Commander Lei, are you talking nonsense again?" The little devil's troops have occupied most of China, and how can our weapons, ammunition and troops be compared with the little devils? I don't know how long and what month I will have to fight with the little devils to bring the little Japanese back to their island country. ”

Niu Dali also said in disbelief: "It's really hard to say this, the devil's weapons and equipment are too powerful, and we have fought this battle for a while, a few years and a decade, and it is not so easy to defeat the little devil." ”

Lei Jian listened to the two deputy battalion commanders, who had no confidence in winning the War of Resistance Against Japan, and said in a stern tone: "Your kind of fearful thinking is very dangerous, as long as you mobilize the people of the whole country, pick up guns and raise knives, throw your head and spill blood to fight the little devils to the end, you will definitely be able to defeat the little devils and liberate our country."

He was very confident, and firmly continued: "In less than six years, little Japan will surrender on its knees and roll back to their island country, and we will definitely see this day." ”

Wang Xiaoliang and Niu Dali heard Lei Jian say this, and clenched their fists with blood surging and shouted: "Okay, I believe what you say." ”

At this moment, Li Gang, who was in charge of reconnoitring the enemy's situation, ran in, and shouted before he entered the house: "Report, report to Battalion Commander Lei, it's not good, the Noda Brigade of the Kameda Wing that surrounded and suppressed us is advancing parallel to Liugong Town in the form of nine squads from the west bank of the Shahe River, and it is only six or seven miles away from our Liugong Town." ”

Lei Jian glanced at the map a few times, and decisively ordered: "Niu Dali, you lead the independent battalion to immediately occupy Hutou Ridge, two miles east of Liugong Town, build fortifications on the main highlands, block the encirclement and suppression of our independent battalion by devils in Hutou Ridge, delay time, cooperate with the soldiers of my cavalry company, see the opportunity to impact the Japanese army's encirclement and suppression deployment, and divide and eliminate the isolated little devils in the movement." ”

Niu Dali looked at Lei Jian pitifully and said, "Battalion Commander Lei, can't you change someone to command the independent battalion to block the attack?" I don't want to leave you, or I call Wang Xiao ....... ”

"Don't, don't, only Deputy Battalion Commander Niu can do such a heavy guts, and I have a special task with Battalion Commander Lei."

"Wang Xiaoliang, what special tasks do you have?" Niu Dali asked with a frown.

Wang Xiaoliang said mysteriously: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed. ”

Lei Jian was also confused by Wang Xiaoliang, he didn't know what special tasks Wang Xiaoliang had with him, he couldn't help asking: "Wang Xiaoliang, why didn't I know that you had a special mission with me?" ”

"Hmph, you people are forgetful, Niu Dali, let me ask you, Commander Liu and Political Commissar Gao at that time, told us to protect Lei Jian well, did you forget about this? What a memory. ”

Niu Dali grabbed Wang Xiaoliang and scolded: "Nima's is waiting here." ”

Lei Jian didn't have time to argue with these two brothers who had formed a battle in the flames, and immediately ordered: "Act immediately according to the orders I have given." ”

In a short time, the cavalry company of the independent battalion of the mountain column of the Eighth Route Army, under the leadership of Lei Jian, rushed out of Liugong Town, followed by the soldiers of several companies of the independent battalion, running and marching in a hurry, to occupy Hutouling in the shortest possible time.

The purpose of the Thunder Sword was to bypass the Noda Brigade of the 73rd Kameda Wing of the Japanese Army, insert itself behind the devils who were marching parallel to Roknomiya Town, and suddenly take a thunderous action against the enemy.

When he was approaching the east bank of the Sand River, Lei Jian reined in his horse and ordered the cavalry company to stop on the spot and wait for orders.

Lei Jian took Li Gang and a few cavalrymen to search in the northwest direction, and the cavalry team was a hundred meters away from Lei Jian's cavalry sharp knife squad, and followed closely behind.

In order to find out whether there were any large Japanese troops around this devil team, Lei Jian searched for more than a mile in the northwest direction, and found that the devil team was advancing westward.

He returned to the cavalry company with the sharp knife squad and ordered Wang Xiaoliang and Li Gang: "I will lead a platoon of cavalry to charge and kill the devils in front of the squad from behind, Li Gang will take a platoon to outflank on the left flank, and Wang Xiaoliang will lead a platoon to cooperate from the right flank. ”

Lei Jian ordered in an aggravated tone: "No matter which platoon, it is not allowed to fall in love with the enemy in the battle, it must solve the battle as quickly as possible, immediately withdraw from the position, retreat to the northeast, and then carry out the next step after the rendezvous, do you understand?" ”

"Understood."

"Okay, let's start the kill." Lei Jian brandished his saber and ordered the cavalry soldiers beside him: "Take the squad as a unit and start attacking the devil hunting squad." ”

Three platoons of cavalry, divided into three different directions, killed the devil squad that was searching and advancing towards Liugong Town.

The captain of the devil squad brandished his command knife and ordered loudly: "Less than ten miles ahead, it is Liugong Town, search forward quickly, and when we arrive at Liugong Town, we must enjoy the food and flower girls there, hahaha." ”

Just when the leader of the devil squad was screaming arrogantly, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and the little devil who was searching for him immediately turned his head with his gun in fright.
