Their place was outside the enemy's net, so it was safe for the time being. However, they had a rare few days of rest, and the troops' physical and mental state had recovered.

Zhang Yunfei started to feel lively. He didn't want to be in a hot mood somewhere else while he was acting like a cat here.

He still wanted to see if he could find a fighter plane and give it to the Japanese. Although he was always considered to like to run away, he also liked to stab the Japanese.

Uh, okay, I am still full of resentment about the comment about running away. Qi Dajiu said that he only regarded it as slander, but Sister Jia also thinks so. This is a bit damaging to his glorious image.

Because the Japanese encirclement network was shrinking, the troops in the Guohe area were at their most empty. Zhang Yunfei was thinking whether he should repeat his old tricks and capture Guohe as he did in Daye.

I was already being chased by a large group of Japs in the Pingchuan area. If another large group of Japs were attracted here in Xincheng, just thinking about it would be so beautiful and exciting. It would be a crazy temptation on the verge of death.

The Japanese and puppet troops mobilized heavy troops to clear out the Chinese troops in the eastern Shanxi area. However, the New Taipei area is now extremely calm and deserted. Even the Xinping Highway has no vehicles or pedestrians.

However, we are currently in the period of sweeps, and people traveling between Xincheng and Pingchuan rely on this road, so Zhang Yunfei feels that guarding this road will definitely bring some benefits.

However, there seemed to be something wrong with his judgment. They had been waiting for several days, and they didn't even see a single shadow of the puppet army, let alone the Japanese.

This makes people feel irritated. He is just trying to catch some fish, so he is just idle anyway.

But once you prepare for an ambush, the mood will be obviously different. If you are purely idle, no matter how long the time passes, you will not feel anxious. But when waiting for someone, this time will make people become

Become restless.

However, Zhang Yunfei did not give up, but waited patiently. The reason why he insisted on ambushing the enemy again was because of their recent vigorous anti-rape operation in western Pingchuan.

The control of the Japanese and traitor teams in the entire western region has dropped to the lowest level. Some young people who want to join the army no longer have to worry about their families being liquidated by the traitors. They have no worries.

Under the propaganda of local cadres, they enthusiastically signed up to join the army, so this time many new recruits were added to their ranks. Too many recruits will dilute the combat effectiveness of the army.

Although they picked up rapes everywhere and accumulated some war experience, after all, those were just small fights and could not be regarded as real wars, so they adapted as soon as possible.

Because the Japs are currently conducting a large-scale sweep, they may engage in a fierce battle with the Japs at any time. Once it comes to a life-or-death situation, it will be very difficult for the recruits to survive.

So now I might as well take the initiative and choose the time and place of the battle on the battlefield, so that they can adapt to the cruelty of war on such a battlefield and transform veterans who have seen blood more quickly.

The hard work paid off. Zhang Yunfei, who had been waiting for several days, finally waited for the arrival of the rabbit. A group of Japanese and puppet troops appeared on the road heading towards Pingchuan. Seeing these guys, Zhang Yunfei decided to fight.

This group of Japanese and puppet troops is mainly made up of puppet troops. They look like Japanese soldiers in their forties or fifties. Of course, most of them are wounded soldiers. Many of them are carried by puppet troops on stretchers. Only about ten people have no injuries. They should be

Accompanying the new recruits escorting the wounded.

Of course, there were not only wounded in this team, but also some prisoners, including friendly troops, the Eighth Route Army, and young and middle-aged laborers captured during pure raids.

These captured persons were tied together with ropes and were forced to walk with difficulty under the bayonets and gun butts of the Japanese and puppet troops.

Jin Province is a resource-rich province. The Japanese mines and coal mining require a large number of laborers, so there is a huge labor shortage. Prisoners on the battlefield and young men captured during raids will be escorted to work in various mining areas.

Moreover, the Japanese were preparing to build a railway, which would require a large number of laborers. What Zhang Yunfei saw were the prisoners captured by the Japanese during the raids. They would be escorted to the rear and then uniformly assigned to various mining sites.

.

The Japanese did not have a prisoner policy, so they did not keep prisoners at first. Anyone captured would basically be massacred by the Japanese. However, now that the Japanese occupied areas have become larger, the labor shortage for building fortifications and other areas is getting bigger and bigger, so now basically

Prisoners will no longer be killed, but of course some of the wounded who cannot work will still be killed.

Of course, the fate of these prisoners will not be too good. Most of them will be sent to mining sites to work as coolies. Once they are sick and unable to work, they will basically be disposed of.

So in a sense, these prisoners in front of them fell into the hands of the Japanese. Although they have a life now, they will only die sooner or later.

Most of them will be tired and tortured alive. This way of living is better than dying happily.

Therefore, Zhang Yunfei must fight this battle, especially now that the surrounding enemy defenses are weak. If he does not fight, death will be waiting for these prisoners.

During the past few days of rest, Zhang Yunfei was not completely idle. When he started preparing to ambush the Japanese, he began to survey the surrounding terrain.

[Update soon] Zhang Yunfei has always thought that he is not a talented commander, so he will pay more attention to these details, try to think more, rely more, and do more.

Now that he knew the surrounding terrain well, now that he saw this group of escorts of the Japanese and puppet troops, he quickly began to imagine his own tactical layout in his mind.

After making up his mind to fight this battle, he led his troops and quickly began to hide at the foot of the mountain. He set up an ambush point in the bushes less than a hundred meters away from the road.

Considering the gunfire here, now my location will be exposed, and the surrounding Japanese and puppet troops will definitely come for reinforcements. They must win the battle quickly. If the battle is delayed for too long, it will be very detrimental to them.

Therefore, Zhang Yunfei adopted close combat and a quick victory. He thought that there were only a dozen intact Japanese soldiers here, and the others were puppet troops. They concentrated their firepower to kill some Japanese soldiers first. As long as the Japanese soldiers were killed, these puppet soldiers would probably be defeated.

.

The combat effectiveness of the puppet army mainly depends on the Japs. Without the Japs' support, especially when their master is killed in front of their eyes, this will have a huge blow to their morale.

Zhang Yunfei is confident that as long as he kills the Japanese at the first time, it will be very easy to deal with the puppet army in close combat. There are also some strong combatants in the puppet army, but whether they are strong or not can actually be seen from their military appearance and discipline, and in front of him
