Chapter 211
The township office was accidentally lost and the bandit leader escaped
Zhang Hai and Xiao Wudian, with a group of defeated soldiers, retreated back to the yard under the cover of the bandits guarding the township office. Tiedan looked at the people running away in a panic and knew that the defensive position at the entrance of the village had been lost. After less than an hour of fighting, his team lost more than half of the damage. Tiedan couldn't help but feel a little scared. The Eighth Route Army was so quick and the offensive was so fierce that it was unexpected.
Tiedan knew that he could not show his timidity in front of everyone at this time, and had to hold the ground down with his teeth. He shouted bluffedly: "Brothers, don't be afraid, with me, the sky cannot fall. All artillery towers and castles in the township will be a defense of thousands of men. As long as the brothers work together and fight me hard, no one can think of going beyond the line. The retreating brothers are now pressing me to the city wall. Occupying the commanding heights and launching a counterattack against the enemy, all those who fight bravely today will be rewarded. "
The bandits who retreated were still in shock. Before they could breathe, Tiedan ordered everyone to block the gun hole. Although one hundred people were unwilling to do so, they did not dare to disobey the military orders, for fear of being executed on the spot, so they had to pray in their hearts for the Bodhisattva's blessing, gritted their teeth and went to the city wall to block the Eighth Route Army that was chasing.
The Eighth Route Army soldiers who were advancing all the way encountered obstacles when they chased to the gate of the township office. Continuous tongues of flames gushed out of the undercastle, whizzing out in the direction of the Eighth Route Army's attack, and the several soldiers running in front fell down. Under the suppression of powerful firepower, the commander had to order people to scatter and hide behind the buildings and mounds.
Seeing the road ahead blocked, the Eighth Route Army soldiers who were unwilling to accept their wishes to surround the flanks, but the defenders in the corner tower on the city wall immediately opened fire, and dense bullets poured towards the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army was suppressed and could not raise their heads.
The Eighth Route Army organized several charges, but they all returned empty-handed because the firepower in the bunkers and corner towers were too strong, and they caused great casualties.
The Eighth Route Army has not been able to attack the countryside office for a long time. Zhang Hai, who was standing in the yard, couldn't help but feel anxious. If he could not take down the castle and the corner tower , and if he continues to fight like this, the number of casualties of the soldiers will surge. When dawn is dawn, the soldiers will be exposed to the enemy's firepower, which will increase the difficulty of attacking the township office. I am afraid that this battle will become a protracted war, and I must do something for the soldiers.
Zhang Hai was thinking about the way to support the Eighth Route Army, staring at the people in front of him, observing their every move, ready to take the opportunity to attack.
Tiedan saw that his subordinates had stabilized the situation under his own arrangements, gradually recovered from the initial nervousness and panic, and kept ordering people to transport bullets to the corner tower and the castle.
Xiao Wudian and Li Ding also closely monitored the changes in the situation, and the two whispered from time to time. "Sky Lark" followed behind them with a few subordinates and obeyed the orders of the two at any time.
Tiedan and Zhang Hai's guards followed behind them and worked hard to protect them.
After careful observation, Zhang Hai really couldn't find a chance to start, nor could he find a reason to go to the Burrow and the Corner Tower to destroy it, so he had to watch the development of the battle situation anxiously.
Just when Zhang Hai was uneasy, two fireballs suddenly lit up in front of him, and then there were two loud "dongdong" sounds, which made everyone in the yard feel numb.
Xiaowu was immediately shocked, and immediately hugged his head with both hands and fell to the ground. He knew that this was the sound of a cannon. He was too sensitive to this sound. He was looking for fun in the parody. He was bombarded by Cao Kai's mortar consecutively, almost shocking his internal organs. He fainted for a long time before he recovered his consciousness. It was already a frightened little bird, and his reaction in desperation was half a beat faster than others.
Tiedan also realized that it was a shell attack and quickly shouted, "Let's go down, lie down." While speaking, he also crawled on the ground with his head in his arms. Several guards rushed over at the same time, sacrificing their lives to protect Tiedan and Zhang Hai.
The panicked Li Ding also lie on the ground randomly, and the few people led by "Sky Lark" fell down immediately.
Another fire flashed in the air, and the low roars of shells sounded in my ears one after another. The bunkers at the intersection were silent. The bricks and stones on the corners of the city wall flew everywhere. A large area of the solid city wall fell down. The bandits who were still fighting back bravely just now were killed or injured.
The Eighth Route Army's mortars were not bombarded. After the gunshots in the yard were silent, the shells stopped. Fortunately, no shells hit the yard, which simply destroyed the bunkers and corner towers and knocked down the tall walls.
Zhang Hai understood that this was a comrade who was commanding on the front line. He knew that there were his own people scrambling among the bandits and was afraid of hurting him, so he stopped shooting.
Zhang Hai quickly observed the situation in front of him. He had to find ways to cooperate with the comrades outside, capture all these people alive, completely smash the conspiracy of the Military Control Commission, let them accept the trial of the people, and expose the true purpose of the National Army to the world.
Listen to the sound of shelling stopping, Tiedan pushed away the two guards pressing on her body, slammed the dust on her body, got up from the ground, and shouted to the wall: "Are there anyone else who vented their anger? Report it to me quickly."
After hearing Tiedan's shouting, Li Ding and others also got up from the ground.
The sound of bandits being weak in reply came from the walls and gates. Under the repeated attacks of the Eighth Route Army, there were only fifty or sixty people left in the team of nearly 200 people.
Tiedan shouted, "It's all good to cheer up and prepare to break through. If you don't want to die, follow me out quickly."
Zhang Hai said to Tiedan: "Battalion Commander, we only have these few brothers. If we continue to fight, there will definitely be a dead end. The other party is not only crowded but also mortars. If we want to break through, there are great risks. We may be shot to death at any time."
Tiedan shouted, "What do you think you should do? Can we just wait here to die?"
Zhang Hai hesitated for a moment and said, "It's said that the Eighth Route Army treats prisoners preferentially, but we can't..." Zhang Hai didn't dare to say it clearly. He paused and wanted to hear Tiedan's tone.
Tiedan shook his head and said, "You want to surrender, right? It's not possible. If we become prisoners, even if the Eighth Route Army does not execute us, the elder brother will not spare us. For the first time, the entire army will be wiped out. What should we do if the tasks arranged on the top of the peak are leaked to the Eighth Route Army? How can we explain to the Military Command ? How can we settle in the national army in the future?" At the critical moment, Tiedan not only considers his own safety, but also considers Cao Kai, and it is not in vain to accompany him since childhood.
Zhang Hai heard Tiedan's tone firm, and quickly changed the subject and said, "I also thought about the safety of the battalion commander. In desperation, I lost my mind and became ill and rushed to seek medical treatment. Now I will take people to divert the firepower of the Eighth Route Army. The battalion commander Li and Company Commander Song break through. If we can successfully break through, we will meet in the buffer zone. If my brothers and I are unfortunately killed, then our brothers will reunite in the next life." At the end of the day, a sense of tragedy appeared in Zhang Hai's tone.
Tiedan was about to speak when fierce gunfire sounded outside. Tiedan knew that the Eighth Route Army was going to concentrate its firepower to clear the battlefield. I don’t have much time left for myself. If I can’t make a quick decision at this time and lead people to break through quickly, I’m afraid I’ll explain it to me today.
The bandits on the wall raised their guns to fight back while moving closer to Tiedan, and people kept falling down amid the gunshots.
Seeing this, Zhang Hai said to Tiedan: "Battery Commander, there is no time left. Hurry up and take the Township Commander Li and the others to leave first. I will take the brothers to stay as a cover, open a passage for you, and swear to let you break through the siege."
Zhang Hai finished speaking, and said to the bandits hiding behind the cover, "Brothers, hold on to me, and beat me hard." As he said that, he was about to rush forward.
At this time, Li Ding grabbed Zhang Hai's arm and said, "Deputy Zhang Ying, how sad, how magnificent, the Party and the country have a righteous man who sacrifices his life and is willing to die. Why worry about the Party and the country's failure to prosper and the country's unification? I admire your feat. However, with me, Li, who is here, it would not be possible for Zhang Ying to sacrifice his life and make righteousness. The cunning rabbit still has three caves. I, Li, have been in this township office for more than 20 years, so naturally I will not leave a way out."
Tiedan's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she quickly said to Li Ding: "Governor Li, it's already this time, don't be so polite. Do you have any way to take us out of here? Let's talk to us quickly. "
Li Ding said: "I have been full of doubts about whether reinforcements can arrive from the first day after returning to the hometown office. In order to meet the emergence of emergencies, I and Company Commander Song and I have cleared the original secret passage leading out of the wall in the underground warehouse when I was building fortifications in the backyard in the past few days. The existence of this secret passage was told privately by the old man from the Qing Dynasty when I first took office. I checked it secretly several times in the early years. Since it had not been used for many years, it had been blocked and blocked. In order not to attract the attention of the Japanese army, I did not dare to repair it without authorization. This time I had no choice but to think that I might use it one day. I have been arranging manual repairs these days, but I didn't expect it to come in handy. "
Tiedan couldn't help but be happy after hearing this and praised: "It's still the head of town Li who is resourceful and has left a way out. Otherwise, we'll have to finish playing this time. "
The Eighth Route Army's shouts and killing sounds were clearly heard, and bullets shot from the wall kept flying past Tiedan and the others. The Eighth Route Army had already rushed over, and was close to the township office.
Tiedan knew that there was not much time left for everyone, so he quickly said, "Governor Li, it would be too late if he didn't leave, so let's retreat quickly. "
Li Ding said: "Okay, Battalion Commander Liu, let's leave immediately, 'Sunlag', lead people to lead the way, and the other brothers behind the palace, protect the safety of Battalion Commander Liu and Deputy Zhang Ying. "
In a hurry, Zhang Hai really couldn't think of a reason to stop these people from leaving. In order to let the comrades invading find their traces, Zhang Hai secretly took out a bullet and threw it on the ground, preparing to sprinkle bullets along the way to guide the soldiers chasing behind. However, it was not clear, and the soldiers could only leave it to fate if they could notice it.
"Skylark" agreed in the crowd, and took a few subordinates to get up and rushed to the backyard.
Li Ding exclaimed: "Oh, I almost forgot the old ghost. Hurry up and take the old ghost out of his house and take him along. The movement must be fast. "
Xiao Wudian said in his heart: "Li Ding is a ruthless man, and is vicious to others. He did not expect that he took good care of Ghost Hand and regarded him as his family. Seeing that the ghost hand was seriously injured and was useless, Li Ding did not dislike him at all. Not only did he not send him home and let him die on his own, he left him in the township office and sent people everywhere to seek medical treatment for him. Now that the disaster is coming, I still don’t forget to take him away. "Xiao Wudian was a little confused about the complexity of human nature.
The ghost hand was shot twice by Cao Xuan. Although he was not dead, he also lost the ability to move. He could only climb on the kang and survive. He had to wait for someone to eat, drink, defecate and urinate. The ghost hand was lying on the kang, and the pain of the wound made it difficult for him to fall asleep. He had been alarmed by the sound of gunfire outside, but his body was inconvenient and could only listen anxiously to the outside in the dark. Movement.
Ghost Hand heard the rumbling sound of cannons outside, and knew that Li Ding and others were afraid that they would not have good results tonight. He struggled to find his own pistol and two grenades , and put them on his waist in case of emergency.
In the dark, two bandit soldiers broke open the Ghost Hand's door and prepared to take him out. If the two of them hadn't opened their mouths and spoke, the Ghost Hand would have Thinking that the enemy came in, they almost pulled out their pistols from their waists and opened fire at the two of them.
The two told Ghost Hand to take him away. Ghost Hand was unwilling to do so, saying that they were not good enough and could not leave anymore, so they asked them to leave quickly to protect Li Ding's safety. The two knew Li Ding's temper and did not dare to return without success. They did not allow Ghost Hand to tell each other, drag the Ghost Hand off the kang, carry it on their shoulders and ran out.
When the two bandit soldiers took Ghost Hand out, Tiedan and the others had already run to the warehouse in the backyard led by "Sky Lark", and the two hurriedly chased forward with ghost Hands on their backs.
At this time, the Eighth Route Army outside the courtyard wall had already rushed in. In the face of the powerful offensive of the Eighth Route Army, the remaining bandits were constantly being shot dead. Seeing that the township office was out of the protection, the remaining people raised their hands to surrender.
, the leaders of several Eighth Route Army soldiers rushed in but could not find the leader, so they asked the prisoners about their whereabouts.
The prisoners pointed to the backyard and told them about Li Ding and others' whereabouts.
These capable Eighth Route Army soldiers did not hesitate, crossed the Moonlight Gate and chased them to the backyard.
The "Skylark" running in front of him entered the underground floor of the warehouse in the dark, took a few torches from the wall and lit them. The few people moved the debris piled in the corner of the wall to cover the hole, and then worked together to push down the fake wall that had just been built, and a half-person-high hole appeared in front of everyone.
"Skylark" stretched the torch towards the entrance of the cave, and then everyone saw clearly that a dark tunnel that only allowed one person to pass led to the distance. "Skylark" bent down and crawled in, and the others followed in one by one.
Li Ding walked behind, looking anxiously behind him. He was waiting for the appearance of the ghost hand, but he was not seeing the ghost hand coming.
At this moment, escaping is the top priority, and there is no need to think about other people's lives or death. Tiedan, who was walking behind Li Ding, kept urging Li Ding to leave quickly, and Li Ding had to run forward as everyone accelerated.
The crowd had not been walking in the secret passage for a long time, and when he heard the messy footsteps coming from the door, Li Ding knew that it was the ghost hand that followed him, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Just when several people thought no one was chasing them and could escape smoothly, there were fierce gunfire coming from the door of the secret passage. It seemed that the pursuers had found the entrance to the secret passage where they escaped. The few people were shocked and ran forward desperately.
A fierce gunshot sounded at the entrance of the secret passage, and then a loud bang was heard. The dust on the secret passage was shaken and fell down. A stream of air flow rushed towards everyone, and everyone's eardrums were buzzing. If it weren't for the fact that the few people had already run far from the entrance of the cave, I was afraid that this stream of air would have overturned everyone to the ground.
Li Ding was shocked and said intimately: "Not good." He knew something must have happened to the ghost hand. However, the situation was critical, and he did not dare to slow down at all. With helplessness in his heart, he ran forward with all his might.
Ghost Hand used his life to protect Li Ding and his party. Just when he was carried by two bandits, he had just run to the secret passage, the Eighth Route Army soldiers outside the door had already chased in and found the secret passage they were about to enter.
Eighth Route Army soldiers ordered them to stop immediately and raise their hands to surrender. At the critical moment of life and death, Ghost Hand and the two bandit soldiers were reluctant to listen. The three of them still ran away regardless of the warning. Just as they stepped into the secret passage, the Eighth Route Army soldiers decisively fired. One bandit soldier was hit and shouted and raised his gun to fight back. Another bandit put down the ghost hand from his back and raised his gun to fight back. Ghost Hand, a rebellious man from the world, was naturally unwilling to fall behind. He endured the severe pain of his wounds and pulled out his pistol from his waist with his own hands and shot at the Eighth Route Army soldiers.
Seeing that the three of them were unwilling to surrender and resisted to the death, the Eighth Route Army soldiers stopped showing mercy and opened fire on the three of them. For a moment, gunfire sounds loudly at the secret entrance, and both sides went back and forth and shot each other. After a fierce gunfight, there was no movement at the secret passage. I don’t know if the three of them had no bullets or had all been shot dead.
Eighth Route Army soldiers lit torches, strengthened their vigilance, and walked carefully toward the secret door. The three people who had just entered the secret passage had all fallen into a pool of blood. One fell on his back, and one lay face down on the other person's chest. The three of them did not move, and it seemed that they had been shot dead on the spot.
The soldiers did not dare to be careless and walked forward carefully to check whether the three people on the ground had any survivors, so as not to be shot black.
A soldier held a torch, two soldiers were alert, one soldier went to check the separate corpse, and the other soldier walked towards the two corpses that overlapped together, and he first put his finger under the nose of the man above to test. The man was no longer breathing, and the soldier moved his body away from the man below, preparing to check the life and death of the person under him.
happened unexpectedly at this moment. The soldier clearly saw under the light of the torch that an old man was pressing under the body. He was looking at himself with a ferocious gaze. One broken arm without a hand pressed his lower abdomen, the other hand was placed on his chest, and two grenade pull rings were placed on his fingers.A "squeak" sound was made under his broken arm, and a trace of blue smoke came from his abdomen. The soldier was shocked and shouted, "Let's go down quickly, he has a grenade on his body!" After that, he crawled on the ghost hand desperately and pressed the grenade tightly.
The incident happened suddenly. After hearing the shouts of warning from the comrades, several other soldiers had no time to react. Before they could jump out of the secret passage, the grenade exploded with a "boom". The soldiers who went to press the grenade were blown away and the secret passage was blown away by a huge shock wave. Several other soldiers fell to the ground one after another and were buried by the collapsed mud in secret passages.
Ghost Hand used his life to interpret his foolish loyalty to Li Ding. It was his dying attempt and gave Li Ding and others a chance to escape.
Li Ding and his friends tried their best to run towards the hole in front, and no one was heard behind him. Li Ding had already guessed that it was Ghost Hand who used his life to block the pursuers at the secret passage. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel sad. If he didn't send someone to take him out, he might not have lost his life.
Li Ding and his group used their ghost hands to win the time they ran out of the secret passage in panic. The secret passage was set up in the woods outside the village wall. "Skylag" ordered people to open the exit, and several people crawled out of the secret passage one after another.
has come to this point, and this trip has basically failed. Before the reinforcements arrived, Li Ding and his men were able to defend the township office. Unexpectedly, when the reinforcements arrived, they not only failed to make Li Ding stick to this place and open up a new situation, but instead accelerated the destruction of this temporary stronghold.
The situation created by
was destroyed like this. Li Ding was unwilling to accept it, but he was helpless. He secretly sighed that his fate was tragic and his death was even more heartbroken.
Xiao Wudian looked at Tiedan and Zhang Hai with contempt, with disdain on his face. When he saw that the leader of the reinforcements was Tiedan, he almost imagined the result today, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly. The 100 soldiers led by Tiedan have received formal training and are so vulnerable. They either died or surrendered as soon as they fought. They did not see the quality of the regular army at all. In addition to doing some superficial work, these people are not as brave as their brothers on the battlefield.
Tiedan was in a mess all the way, panting with exhaustion, and no longer had the energy he had when he first came. He felt that Li Ding and Xiao Wudian were no longer holding him, and even the minimum respect in his eyes no longer existed. Tiedan looked at Li Ding and Xiao Wudian who were already disdainful of him, and felt very depressed. She looked up at a few guards wearing torches. Their people were all covered in dust and dejected. Now that things have come to this point, Tiedan doesn’t know what to say.
The one who was most happy was Zhang Hai. He looked at the village office in the distance. This very symbolic place finally returned to the hands of the people. The enemy's conspiracy was eradicated in its infancy. He secretly glad that he did not come in vain.
Xiao Wudian broke the silence first and said, "Don't be standing there, where to go, hurry up and decide. This is not far from the township office. If they find our traces, they will be able to chase after you soon. It would be too late to run away."
Tiedan pondered for a moment and said, "Our stronghold has been lost, and you have no place to settle down. Let's go back to Suiyuan with me and go find my brother."
Xiao Wudian snorted coldly and said, "Our stronghold has been lost, and you have no place to stay. : "Forget it, we defeated generals, what are the faces of going to the National Army? If we go there, we will not be held accountable and we will be drowned by spitting stars. I, Xiao Wudian, cannot afford to lose this person. I think we should just leave here and find a way out."
Li Ding said anxiously before Tiedan and the others answered, "Old Song, our mission has not been completed yet. We cannot separate. I will follow you."
Tiedan listened to the sarcasm in Xiao Wudian's words and knew that they were blaming themselves for not being able to defend the township office. I wanted to refute a few words, but I thought that I was taken down by someone just two days after I came, and my face was lost when I argued. Since the two did not want to go to Suiyuan, they had to give up. I immediately clasped my fists and said, "Since you have a place to settle down, we will have a date later."
Tiedan finished speaking, and before Li Ding and Xiao Wudian talked, he took Zhang Hai and a few guards angrily and hurried out into the forest.
Xiao Wudian saw Tiedan and others leaving, and said to Li Ding: "Brother Li is willing to go with me, then let's go quickly and make a fuss when you escape from danger. "
Xiao Wudian and Li Ding took "Sky Lark" and more than a dozen of his brothers to run towards the Dawu Mountaineering.
Want to know what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown of
creation is not easy to thank for your attention and like
