"Boom boom boom..." The Japanese army that was advancing stepped on the serial thunder prepared by the guerrillas for us again.

The thirty-meter-long road was suddenly covered by smoke from a series of thunder.

However, because the formation of the vanguard troops was too scattered, the seemingly powerful serial thunder did not cause much casualties to the Japanese and puppet troops.

Less than twenty Japanese and puppet troops were either killed or injured and fell on the road.

"Baga, the engineers are coming to the front to clear the mines. It doesn't matter if they are slower. However, I don't want to see any Imperial Army die at the hands of the mines of the Eighth Route Army!" The Japanese captain ordered with a grievance and anger.

After spending nearly an hour walking through this highway, the three villages appeared directly in front of the captain.

"The first squadron, the first battalion of the Imperial Army, the first mortar squadron, and the first squadron of the heavy machine gun squadron, sweep the villages to the east!"

"The Second Squadron, the Second Battalion of the Imperial Army, swept the villages directly north, the Third Infantry Squadron, and the Third Battalion of the Imperial Army swept the villages west. Other troops remained motionless and reinforced the attacked sweeping troops at any time?" The captain said with a serious face.

Soon, the three-way sweeping troops returned in a desperate situation amid the sporadic gunfire and brought back many wounded and corpses.

Although the captain was angry, he knew a truth very well: "As long as you fight, there will be sacrifices. After all, his opponent's Independent Group is not a vegetarian."

Fortunately, the Imperial Army is no longer the same as before. Even if it cannot make a complete counterattack in the face of the guerrilla warfare of the Eighth Route Army, at least it can reduce casualties to the minimum.

That night, the atmosphere at the Independent Tuantuan Command was very bad.

Because there was no specific way to deal with the Japanese and puppet troops, the entire command felt huge pressure.

Especially the group leader Wang Ping, his frown had never been stretched out. He was staring at the map all day long.

"Captain, the results of the Second and Third Battalions have been counted today. In addition, the Japanese 4th Route Sweeping Forces have stopped now. Just like last night, I chose the village as the garrison. The alert is very strict and I can't find any chance to attack them."

The night attack failed and the political commissar could only pin his hopes on the daytime guerrilla warfare.

Staring at the chief of staff, he asked: "Is the casualties of the Japanese a lot? Are there any casualties of the four-way sweeping troops totaling more than 500?"

Zeng Quan shook his head helplessly and replied: "No! The regiment commander is right. The Japanese are already familiar with our guerrilla warfare routines and have some countermeasures. In one day, they only killed and injured 300 Japanese and puppet troops, and nearly 100 of them were killed and injured!"

Cheng Xiao frowned and said worriedly: "No, you can't be so passive anymore. The team leader must change the current passive situation."

At this time, Wang Ping finally spoke.

"Chief of Staff, mark all the Japanese troops' garrisons for two consecutive nights!"

Soon, eight circles appeared on the map. Wang Ping stared at the two pairs of confused eyes, stared at six dots for another five minutes, and replied: "Continue to wait, and the Japanese army will also mark the village where the garrison is located after stopping tomorrow night. There are only eight garrisons now, and it is still impossible to determine the rules of the Japanese camping!"

"Captain, have you thought of a solution?" Zeng Quan asked immediately.

"I can't confirm whether it is feasible, it will be clear tomorrow night!" Wang Ping replied mysteriously.

The next night, as soon as the Chief of Staff received a telegram from the Second and Third Battalions, he marked the location of the Japanese and puppet troops tonight on the map, and then stared at Wang Ping and asked.

"Captain, the position has come out, what you said is!"

"No hurry!" Wang Ping shook his head and replied.

Then he stared at the map and said to Zeng Quan and Cheng Xiao: "Political Commissar, Chief of Staff, there are now twelve points on the map. Can you infer from these twelve points where these Japanese and puppet troops will be stationed tomorrow night!"

"Yes, sure!" Political Commissar Cheng Xiao immediately affirmed, his tone very firm.

"Under our harassment, the daily march of the Japanese and puppet troops was fixed, and it was not difficult to determine their base tomorrow night."

"Of course, even if the Japanese and puppet troops go a little more and less at that time, we can also bury landmines on the road to drive the Japanese and puppet troops to the base where we want them to camp, unless they don't want to camp with the help of the village and camp directly in the open space!"

After saying that, Cheng Xiao and Zeng Quan marked four points on the map.

Wang Ping nodded and replied: "**Never leave ten! Political Commissar and Chief of Staff, you see what are the characteristics of these four points!"

Zeng Quan replied incomprehensible: "What are the characteristics of it? It is less than twenty kilometers apart from each other. No matter how hard it is to be attacked, the troops next to him can arrive within four hours!"

"No!" Political Commissar Cheng Xiao suddenly retorted, and his eyes quickly shot out two rays of light, and then explained.

"The two Japanese troops in the middle will definitely not be able to reinforce each other within four hours! Although the straight line distance between them is only twenty kilometers, there are hills in the middle, and there is a river."

"Not to mention anything else, it will be nearly forty kilometers on the march alone. If we blow up the bridge on the river and send a force to harass them along the way and block them from crossing the river, even if they walk for a night, they will not be able to reach the base of the neighboring troops!"

"It's true that as long as there is a company, plus a landmine, it will definitely be no problem to hold the Japanese until dark!" Zeng Quan also reacted.

Cheng Xiao seemed to think of something at this time, then stared at Wang Pingbing and asked: "Captain, are you planning to use the terrain here to fight the Japanese ambush!"

"No, the ambush is definitely not possible! No matter where we ambush the river, the Japanese in other garrisons can quickly reinforce! The Japanese have nearly 3,000 troops sweeping the troops along the way. Even if we take out all the assets of the independent regiment, it is impossible for us to kill them sweep the troops along the way in a short time!"

Wang Ping replied arrogantly: "If you can't kill them in a short period of time, just kill them in one night!"

Then, despite the incomprehension and stunned on the faces of the two of them, they continued to shout: "And this time I not only want to kill the Japanese and the sweeping troops, but my goal is to eat their sweeping troops in one bite!"

"It is impossible. With the strength of our independent regiment, the Japanese can't do it all the way. Killing two of their sweeping troops in one go is a delusion!" Cheng Xiao has always supported Wang Ping very much. But this time he chose to refuse. It was because Wang Ping's appetite was too big, and it was simply not considered reality, and it was impossible to achieve it.

The expression on Wang Ping's face did not change because of Cheng Xiao's rejection, but he was still as confident as ever.

He continued to say to the two people: "The roads between Huangtuling Village and Hongqiao Village are less than 20 kilometers away. I plan to eat the Japanese and puppet troops entering these two villages in one bite tomorrow night!"
