In this way, the entire convoy kept on the road, and after paying the price of one car, it finally broke through the two checkpoints set up by the army. And just when Liu Xiaogang was glad that he had successfully broken through the devil's defense line, there was a sudden exclamation from the back carriage.

"Report to the captain, there is a situation behind" The voice of Wang Hong, the leader of the first squadron, was very anxious.

"Ah, what's the matter?" Liu Xiaogang turned his head and asked.

"The devil's pursuers are coming, captain" Hearing this, Liu Xiaogang quickly poked his head out of the car window and looked at the back of the convoy. Fortunately, it was already dark, and although the distance between the two armies was still at least two kilometers, the lights of their cars could be clearly seen.

Liu Xiaogang raised the binoculars, there were a total of ten cars, and a squadron of little devils was approaching him quickly. Seeing this, Liu Xiaogang understood that his car was loaded with a large amount of medicines and supplies, and the speed compared with the little devil's car could not be compared in any way. Something must be done to stop these pursuers

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaogang's heart began to calculate silently.

"Order, Captain Meng, the leader of the second squadron, and the second squadron will get off immediately, and they must block the little devil for ten minutes, and then retreat on their own and order the convoy to stop, quickly" Liu Xiaogang hurriedly ordered.

......Immediately, 14 cars stopped one after another, and at the moment the cars stopped, more than 50 heavily armed special combat personnel jumped out of the cars.

The soldiers of the 2nd Squadron, without any orders, ignored the approaching devil cars, and quickly arranged simple mines constructed of cluster grenades on the road in the fastest time, while the remaining soldiers quickly hid in the woods on both sides of the road and began to check the guns in their hands.

A huge explosion sounded, and the first car pursued by the devils suddenly overwhelmed the treacherous mines arranged by the fighters. The huge explosive force of the grenade instantly knocked the car and the twenty or so little devils on the car to the ground, and the nine cars behind him were caught off guard and crashed into each other in an instant.

Immediately after the "Baga Enemy Attack", the bird song of the little devil squadron leader came from the car.

"Fight" At the moment when the captain of the army issued the order to defend, that is, when the little devil was just about to get out of the car, the squadron leader Meng Jie seized the opportunity and ordered loudly. At the same time, a handful of 20 rings in his hand was also quickly flattened, and a shuttle of bullets swept out of a car in front of him.

Immediately, the woods where the soldiers were hiding remembered the dense gunfire, and one after another deadly bullets were fired into the pile of devils who were falling into chaos, and the tongues of fire swept towards the little devils' cars.

"Boom, boom, boom" was followed by a dozen grenades that were emitting white smoke, taking advantage of the gap in the shooting, flew out of the dense woods and smashed directly into the remaining car compartment of the devil. In the blink of an eye, there were two devils' cars that couldn't withstand the continuous explosion of grenades, and together with the few remaining devil soldiers in the carriage, they turned into two big fireballs.

"Baga, get out of the car quickly, organize defense, the enemy is in the woods, grenadiers, quick, shoot immediately, destroy the enemy in the woods, quickly" said the squadron leader, dodging the first round of fire from the fighters, shouted loudly in the face of the soldiers who were in a panic for a while.

Perhaps it was the words of the squadron leader that played a role, and immediately, a few dull noises sounded among the little devils who organized a return fire on the road, and in the blink of an eye, several violent grenade explosions were remembered in the woods where the fighters were hiding, and several fighters were unfortunately hit.

"Yo Xi, good fight, continue to fire, shoot all the grenades, you must destroy these enemies who dare to sneak attack Taiyuan, quickly, launch" Seeing the effect of the grenadier, the squadron leader forgot for a while, and actually stood up straight and gave an order to the grenadier soldiers behind him.

Soon, the woods where the soldiers were hiding were continuously bombarded by grenadiers, and if it weren't for the small number of people in the special operations brigade and the scattered ambush, then his casualties would have been very huge.

"Sniper, the squadron leader who will eliminate the devil immediately, quickly" "Hearing the constant explosions around him, Meng Jie did not dodge, carefully observing the distribution of enemies on the battlefield in front of him, just when the squadron leader of the army stood up straight, the squadron leader Meng Jie gave an order to the snipers beside him.

"Bang bang" Two dull gunshots rang out under the cover of the dense gunfire and cannon sound around him, and the squadron leader of the Yue Army looked at the two blood holes in his chest in amazement and fell to the ground.

"Baga, the squadron leader is dead, kill to avenge His Excellency the squadron leader" Seeing the body of the dead squadron leader, immediately a red-eyed little devil squad leader who had been killed frantically raised the command knife in his hand and ordered his soldiers to charge the enemy in the woods, no longer caring about any grenadier cover.

"Kill it," the soldier shouted, and under the leadership of the red-eyed squad leader, he broke out of the newly organized defensive ring and charged the enemy in the woods.

"Okay, well played." Seeing that the formation of the Yue army was completely chaotic, Squadron Leader Meng Jie patted his head happily and shouted. "Order the fighters not to save bullets, give me a fight"

The fighters who got the order did not need to aim, and in the face of the swarming little devils, they did not need to aim at all, they only needed to constantly load the bullet and pull the trigger

"Baga, quick, retreat" In the face of huge casualties, the leader of the Yue army squad who led the troops to charge finally calmed down and began to order the remaining soldiers to retreat. And at this moment, the ten-minute time for the blocking ordered by Liu Xiaogang had arrived. Captain Meng looked at the watch on his arm and decisively signaled the troops to retreat. Taking advantage of the gap in the retreat of the little devils, the soldiers carried the bodies of the wounded and their comrades and quickly disappeared into the woods on both sides of the road.

A sharp braking sounded, and Liu Xiaogang's convoy finally felt the predetermined location in the limited time provided by the second squadron in the limited ten minutes. As soon as he stopped, he saw several warriors emerge from the woods on both sides of the road. ran directly to Liu Xiaogang's first car.

"May I ask if you are Captain Liu of the Special Operations Brigade of the Headquarters?" A cadre with a pistol on the opposite side came to Liu Xiaogang and asked.

"Yes, I'm Liu Xiaogang, may I ask who you are?" Liu Xiaogang saw that in front of him should be the troops of the First Army Division who came to meet him.

"Captain Liu, I am Li Changzheng, the commander of the First Regiment of the First Army Division, and I came to meet Captain Liu on the order of the commander." After receiving an affirmative answer, Commander Li in front of him hurriedly replied with a military salute.

"Commander Li, thank you for your response, there are a total of fourteen cars here, all of them are loaded with medicines and some medical equipment, please trouble Commander Li to empty these materials in twenty minutes, there are little devils chasing soldiers behind us" Liu Xiaogang replied, the last sentence was said in a low voice.

"Captain Liu, I understand. Xiao Wang, send a signal. After Commander Li finished speaking, he ordered a division commander behind him.

"Yes, the regiment commander ticks tock" I saw that the trumpeter named Xiao Wang behind the regimental commander Li quickly picked up his horn and blew it, and in less than a few seconds, I saw nearly a thousand troops emerging from the woods next to the road. These troops seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and they methodically rushed towards the car in a company unit.

So, with the assistance of the soldiers of a regiment, it took less than ten minutes for everyone to carry all the 14 truckloads of medicines. As the last to retreat, the special combat team members did not have any politeness, and after throwing two grenades into the cab of each car, they retreated safely, leaving only the wreckage of 14 cars for the little devils, so that the soldiers who came to pursue wanted to cry without tears, and in the end, they could only return to Taiyuan with more than half of the soldiers who were about to be killed or wounded.

In this way, after several days of manpower transportation, all the medicines, along with several doctors who had already joined the Eighth Route Army, were sent to Zhangjiazhuang, the capital of the base area. The various squadrons of the special operations brigade also returned to the base area one after another, and the base area successfully resolved the matter of drug panic.

And in the city of Taiyuan, the devil has experienced a stormy change. Due to the unfavorable operations of the Taiyuan commander for a year in a row, and more importantly, in the heavily defended Taiyuan City, the Eighth Route Army unknowingly robbed an entire hospital of medicines, and what made the superiors even more angry was that the nearly 1,000 seriously wounded people who were treated in the hospital survived in the end due to the destruction of the Eighth Route Army and the lack of medical treatment and other factors

In the face of all kinds of evidence, the commander-in-chief of the North China Army was forced to remove dozens of officials from Taiyuan from the commander to the captains of various brigades. Therefore, in the next half a month or so, the entire Shanxi army was completely in chaos, and there was no time to take care of the Jinyi base area, which was slowly accumulating strength.

In this way, half a month passed in a hurry, and without the disturbance of the army, in half a month, the army and people in the base area overcame the severe cold, completely made up for the vitality lost by the winter encirclement and suppression of the army, and the entire base area was developing towards the thriving end. On this day, the base area ushered in the first heavy snow of 1939, and the heavy snow fell for a whole day and night, and as far as the eye could see, the entire headquarters and the surrounding mountain villages were completely covered with heavy snow.

In the entire base area, except for the main forces that are still insisting on training, there is basically not a single civilian in sight, and the militia appears outside, looking unusually deserted.

And in such weather, a reinforced squadron of the Japanese army, which had almost doubled its firepower, was covered in white cloth, and the whole person was almost completely surrounded by white, and it seemed that every step of the way through the remote path, in the base area already covered with thick snow, the trekkers who were struggling to trek seemed to have to exert a lot of strength every step they took.

If you don't look closely, it's hard to see that there are hundreds of people marching here. Looking at the marching direction of these troops, the target was Xiaolizhuang, which was less than ten miles away from the edge of the base area.

And look at Xiao Lizhuang, which is less than 6 miles away from the current army, because of the snow and the cold weather, the militia who should have come out to guard are all huddled in their homes at this time, except for a few dogs in the village that are constantly barking and a few wisps of cooking smoke wafting out of the village, it is hard to think that there are a large number of ordinary people living in this village. It is clear that the people of Xiao Li Zhuang will pay a heavy price for their carelessness in the next few hours.

"Baga, it's so cold, it looks like water has gotten into my shoes." Ono Jiro, the captain of the Japanese army, who was walking in the middle of the team, looked at the white snow in front of him, listened to the cold wind whistling in his ears, and couldn't help but complain.

"Your Excellency Squadron Leader, why did the Captain order us to come out on a mission in such cold weather, didn't he know that in such cold weather, he would freeze to death after coming out for a while?" The vice-captain next to him hurriedly agreed.

"Hey, since we changed the captain, this captain has been training us like crazy, I guess this is because he wants to try the results of his training!" Ono Jiro rubbed his hands that were about to freeze, and replied weakly.

"Squadron leader, I heard that this time not only the captain of our brigade has been replaced, but many captains of the entire Shanxi garrison, together with His Excellency the commander, have been removed." The vice-captain, after listening to Ono Jiro's words, told a little inside information that he knew.

"Well, where did you get the news about such a big change in officers?" Jiro Ono immediately became interested.

"Hey, squadron leader, I heard about it from one of my fellow countrymen, I have a fellow who works in the staff of the Taiyuan Command, and once again he came down on a mission and told me when he was drinking with me." The vice-captain replied with a proud face, as if he was proud of knowing about it.

"Well, that message should be very accurate, do you know why?" Squadron Leader Jiro Ono's interest was finally raised.

"Squadron leader, listen to my fellow countryman, because in the battle of last year, our Shanxi garrison army continued to lose the Eighth Route Army's reading division, plus the Eighth Route Army had quietly broken through the Taiyuan city defense, robbed all the medicines in Taiyuan Hospital, and all of them were shipped out of Taiyuan City, just because of these few things, General Terauchi Shouichi of the North China Headquarters was very angry, and then a series of dismissals occurred" The deputy captain still showed off the gossip he knew to the squadron leader Ono Jiro in front of him.

"Well, in fact, this is not the fault of the captain and the commander, these can only be blamed on the Eighth Route Army being too cunning, and the Chinese people are too hateful." Squadron Leader Ono Jiro glanced at the vice-captain next to him who was talking with contempt and said.

However, the deputy captain next to him didn't seem to see his captain's contemptuous eyes, and after listening to the squadron leader's words, he still continued to show off.

"Your Excellency Squadron Leader, I heard from my fellow countryman that we are not the only one who came out today to strengthen the squadron." The vice-captain threw another tempting bait. Sure enough, hearing that the bait thrown by the vice-captain was related to this operation, squadron leader Jiro Ono was once again attracted by the vice-captain's words.

"Huh? Vice-Captain, could it be that there are other troops, and is this a large-scale battle or battle plan arranged by the commanders? The squadron leader asked.

"Yes, Your Excellency Squadron Leader, did my fellow countryman tell me that this is an action plan carefully planned by the newly appointed commander of the Taiyuan Command together with the General Staff. I heard that this plan was aimed at the guerrilla warfare of the Eighth Route Army, and after some actual combat exercises, we summed up a guerrilla warfare of our imperial army. The vice-captain replied triumphantly.

"Guerrilla warfare?" Although the squadron leader was very disgusted with the vice captain in front of him, he still couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart and showed a puzzled look to the vice captain.

"Yes, it's guerrilla warfare, listen to my fellow countryman's introduction. It is to use the squadrons of the Imperial Army that have strengthened their firepower as a unit to scatter and attack the various villages in the base area of the Eighth Route Army, and run away after the battle, destroying the construction of the base area of the Eighth Route Army, and I have also heard that the above means to kill all the strong men in the villages in the base area of the Eighth Route Army that have been attacked by us, so as to prevent them from joining the Eighth Route Army and finally becoming the enemy of our Imperial Army. The vice-captain said.

"Well, kill all the strong men, the captain personally explained this matter to me, I know. Guerrilla warfare is really a good tactic against the Eighth Route Army, which can not only eliminate the strength of the Eighth Route Army, weaken their hidden strength, but also reduce the casualties of our imperial army. What a very good tactic! Squadron Leader Jiro Ono said with heartfelt admiration.

"The squadron leader is very right, but I can't figure out why the commanders let us come out in such cold weather. Isn't it good to wait for the weather to clear? The vice-captain still complained with a depressed face.

"Hehe, this is also the focus of this tactic" After knowing that today's tactic is called guerrilla warfare, Ono Jiro's psychology couldn't help but feel refreshed, and many doubts were solved.

"Could it be that Your Excellency the Squadron Leader knows the reason, and please please explain to the Squadron Leader" Hearing that the deputy captain finally wanted to bow his head, the squadron leader's mind couldn't help but be happy.

"Deputy captain, the tactics of guerrilla warfare are about hitting and running, if we encounter the cavalry units of the Eighth Route Army, can we run? Don't forget that the Eighth Route Army has a very strong cavalry unit. Squadron Leader Jiro Ono explained with a smile.

"I see, Your Excellency Squadron Leader, there is a thick layer of snow on the ground now, and even if the cavalry units of the Eighth Route Army are dispatched, they will not be able to make any difference. Moreover, if the cavalry units of the Eighth Route Army are dispatched, their slow running speed will become a live target for our excellent imperial army. The vice-captain showed a look of sudden realization.

"Yo Xi, very well, that's one reason, but there's another important reason." Squadron Leader Ono Jiro instantly understood his thoughts when he saw the deputy captain, and nodded approvingly.
