Lei Jian no matter what conspiracy the devil has, he must rescue the county squadron from the encirclement of the devil in front of him, but there is only one reconnaissance platoon, plus less than a hundred new soldiers who have just joined the army, how can he confront the Japanese army with two squadrons?

He pondered in his heart, and suddenly ordered: "Order the troops to quickly approach the southern foot of Ao Mountain, march in concealment, and not alarm the enemy." ”

Wang Xiaoliang followed Lei Jian's side and asked in a low voice: "Captain Lei, there are so many little devils, relying on the strength of one platoon alone, no matter how we fight, we will not be able to win this battle." ”

Lei Jian whispered, "Only outwitted." ”

"How to outwit?" Wang Xiaoliang asked rhetorically without understanding.

Lei Jian pretended to say six words mysteriously: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed." ”

Lei Jian ordered the reconnaissance platoon and the new soldiers who had newly joined the Eighth Route Army, led by Li Gang, to lurk at the foot of the main peak of Ao Mountain, and he took a squad to quietly touch the devil station on the south peak of Ao Mountain.

When I was approaching the devil's position, I saw piles of bonfires burning on the devil's position, and there were more than a dozen little devils sitting around the bonfire, dozing off with guns.

There is a bonfire in the devil's position, and there is a bonfire every dozen steps, and more than a dozen little devils are surrounded by a bunch of bonfires along the foot of the southern foot of Ao Mountain.

Lei Jian circled around the enemy's position, and saw that the devil troops were at least in a squadron, but they couldn't see how the weapons and equipment of this army were in the night. However, the enemy who dared to surround the county squadron of the Eighth Route Army must have something to rely on, otherwise he would not dare to be so bold on the edge of the Eighth Route Army's base area.

Wang Xiaoliang saw so many enemies and said in a low voice: "Captain Lei, no, let me ask you, why did you make yourself the battalion commander?" ”

"I, Lei Jian, used to be the acting regiment commander, and now I have nearly three companies of troops, do you think it's too much for me to be a battalion commander? Hmph, I also had to do it as a last resort in order to be easy to command in battle. ”

"Okay, okay, you just make yourself the commander and no one can control you, you said that there are more than 100 little devils on this surrounding, and we have 180 people, most of them are new recruits, fighting against fierce devils, can we have a chance of winning?" Wang Xiaoliang asked worriedly.

"Didn't I tell you that if you want to rescue the county squadron surrounded in the mountains, you can only outwit it."

Wang Xiaoliang heard Lei Jian mention outwitting again, and he couldn't help but ask anxiously: "You just talk about outwitting, how are you outwitting?" ”

"Heaven must not be divulged." Lei Jian replied to Wang Xiaoliang with this puzzling sentence, in fact, he still hasn't come up with any way to outwit him, and he is worried about his headache.

Lei Jian looked at the mountain to the east, as if it was a little gray, he knew that once the whole sky was white, it would not be too far from dawn.

He walked around the enemy's position quickly, returned to the hidden place of the reconnaissance platoon, gathered a few trainees who had been selected to study at the Jiaodong Military and Political Cadre School, and asked: "Now a devil squadron is surrounding the southern foot of Ao Mountain, and the county middle school of the Eighth Route Army is besieging the south peak of Ao Mountain, how do you say this battle can be fought to break through the devil encirclement and rescue the county squadron?" ”

None of the students in the dark night spoke, and Wang Xiaoliang said in a low voice: "The disparity between the enemy's forces, weapons and ammunition is too great, and this battle is not easy to fight." ”

Cao Shangui then said: "Battalion Commander Lei is right, only outwitting, not attacking. ”

"I think we have too few people, and we are all new soldiers, otherwise when Niu Dali and his troops catch up, how about we do it again? This will be a little certain, so that you won't be beaten by the devil as soon as you get into the fire. ”

"Bastard, I've been in school for two or three months, and I can still drag words, fart and urine flow is a derogatory term, and it's not suitable for our Eighth Route Army." Wang Xiaoliang said dissatisfiedly.

Lei Jian listened to the opinions of these students, but he didn't put forward a complete battle plan, he lowered his voice and said: "We now have two platoon troops, Wang Xiaoliang is the company commander, Li Gang is the first platoon commander temporarily, Cao Shangui is the second platoon leader, and the other students are the squad leaders. ”

He continued: "I reconnoitred around the enemy camp twice just now, and found that the devils' positions were scattered, a bunch of bonfires were lit every dozen steps, and there were more than a dozen little devils around. ”

"When will you do it?" Wang Xiaoliang asked.

Lei Jian replied head-on and continued: "We can't figure out what the enemy's weapons and equipment are now, only when the devils launch an attack on the southern foot of Ao Mountain at dawn, can we find out the enemy's weapons and equipment and troop deployment, and concentrate firepower to kill the devil's heavy firepower equipment, so as to effectively hit the enemy." ”

"That's what you call outwitting?" Wang Xiaoliang couldn't help but ask again.

Lei Jian lowered his voice and continued: "This is only a step to strike at the enemy, after a while, the trainee Zheng Tie took Li Jieming and two soldiers from the county squadron to report the news, and quickly moved to Guojiadian, and the two companies led by Niu Dali climbed the mountain from the peak at the northern foot of Ao Mountain, occupied the main peak covertly, and set up a position on the high ground where the south foot of the main peak and the south peak meet, and fired against the enemy attacking the south peak. ”

Cao Shangui asked puzzledly: "Battalion Commander Lei, it's so dark, how do you know the location of the peaks of Ao Mountain?" ”

"You should all know this, when we attacked the enemy puppet army at the northern foot of Aoshan during the day to grab the villagers, I carefully checked the terrain of Aoshan, and I shouldn't be wrong with this arrangement."

"Battalion Commander Lei, you are so powerful, you can feel the surrounding terrain so thoroughly in one battle, how did you do it?" Cao Shangui asked admiringly.

"As a commander, every time you fight, you have to find out the terrain where the troops are located, so that it will be of great help to engage the enemy here again in the future."

Lei Jian ordered no more: "Order Li Gang's reconnaissance platoon to form a sharp knife squad, led by me and Wang Xiaoliang, to take out the enemy's heavy weapons position, and the other two platoons will be well concealed on the spot, and when I come back, I will find the enemy's weak underbelly and launch a surprise attack." ”

He ordered Zheng Tie: "You immediately lead people to move quickly in the direction of Guojiadian and follow my orders." ”

Everything was arranged, and Lei Jian said to the soldiers around him: "The sky is about to dawn, all hurry up and close your eyes, and you are about to start a battle with the little devil, recuperate and sleep to defeat the enemy." ”

The sky slowly brightened, the early winter dawned late, the gray weather lasted for a while, the east showed a ray of dawn, a round of the sun about to rise, a new bloody battle, about to begin.

The enemy began to move, and the devil commander ordered the troops: "Order three squads of imperial soldiers, divided into east, south, and north directions, with crossfire intersecting each other, to attack the southern peak occupied by Tuba Road at the southern foot of Ao Mountain, occupy the three peaks of Ao Mountain, and be a large imperial force, 'pull net' encirclement and suppression activities in the area occupied by the imperial army to resist the anti-Japanese forces on Tuba Road, block the reinforcements of Tuba Road from the base area, and must eliminate the Tuba Road encircled in the south peak and occupy the three peaks of Ao Mountain." ”

At this time, the county squadron of the Eighth Route Army was surrounded on the southern peak of Ao Mountain, and the squadron leader Ma Ming sat on a big rock, holding a big knife in his hand, and said to the squad leaders: "We originally escorted the county party committee organs and could return to the base area smoothly, but we didn't expect to be surrounded by a squadron of little devils on the mountain in Ao Mountain. ”

A squad leader said: "The soldiers are coming to block, it's a big deal to fight with the little devils, killing one is enough, killing one more is earning." ”

", our county is such an anti-Japanese army, and everyone is gone, how will we fight the little devils in the future?" Captain Ma Ming said.

"So you're going to come up with a solution? Is it useful to have a fart? I still say the same thing, either die in battle, or fight your way out of the bloody road. The squad leader said nonchalantly.

Captain Ma shook his head and said: "I sent Li Jieming to Heliu Village to ask for reinforcements from a team of the Eighth Route Army stationed there to quickly reinforce us, but Li Jieming, who delivered the message, has not replied to the letter so far, and I don't know if the letter has arrived, so I am really anxious." ”

At this moment, several warriors shouted: "Captain Ma, come and see, my mother, the little devil is like a locust, rushing up from the bottom of the mountain." ”

Captain Ma ordered the soldiers: "We don't have many bullets, and we don't have a few grenades, now pile the stones on the mountain at the front of the position, and if there are no bullets, we will use stones to smash them, and we will kill a few more little devils." ”
