Lieutenant Xiaolin is the temporary head of all remaining troops in the Hongquan Village stronghold.
At five o'clock in the morning, while he was still dreaming, the sergeant on duty suddenly broke in.
"Sir, a group of people came outside the stronghold, holding torches. It seems that the captain is back."
Xiao Lin got up from the bed, looked at the watch on his wrist and replied: "It's five o'clock in the morning, it's about the same time, they should be back!"
"Let's go and meet the squadron leader~"
Climbing up to the central turret of the stronghold, the team holding torches had already reached a position more than 300 meters away from the stronghold.
The lieutenant held up the telescope and soon discovered some clues, and his brows furrowed.
There were still three hundred people, but there were dozens more stretchers inside.
More importantly, he did not find the squadron leader in the team.
Fortunately, Zhou Yunian, the commander of the puppet army, came into view at this time, dispelling his inner worries.
But the cautious Lieutenant Xiaolin still vaguely felt something was wrong. He couldn't tell exactly what was wrong, so he frowned and ordered.
"Go out and take a look to see if something happened to the troops in Lintianzhuang. Why are there so many wounded and no squadron leader in sight?"
"Hi!"
The sergeant rushed out of the stronghold with a Japanese soldier and a puppet platoon leader.
Seeing the gate of the stronghold being opened and several people rushing out, Li Hao, who was walking beside Zhou Yunian, frowned and said.
"The little devil is quite cautious. He even thought of sending someone out in advance to see what happened. Fortunately, I was prepared in advance and brought you, Captain Zhou!"
Then he threatened Zhou Yunian.
"Captain Zhou, you should know what to say in a moment! If the operation is exposed, you will definitely be the first person to be killed. You don't have to question this. If the operation is successful, our guerrillas will definitely fulfill their promise and let you go.
Leave as if you have never been captured by us!"
"At that time, you can continue to find your masters, the little devils, and work for them, but you won't be so lucky next time we run into you."
"I personally suggest you choose the second path, treat yourself as dead, then quietly sneak into the county, take your family and sneak away, live your own life in seclusion!"
"I choose the second option!" Zhou Yunian, who had already figured it out, made a decisive decision!
"I will cooperate with your actions and seize the stronghold. But after the action is over, you must announce to the public that I was killed by you, otherwise my family in the county will definitely not end well!"
Li Hao immediately replied: "I promise you!"
"The little devil is already here, now it's your turn to appear!"
"Don't try to be clever. There are at least three Czech guns behind you, which will beat you to a pulp in an instant!"
When the two Japanese soldiers and a puppet platoon leader were still more than thirty meters away from the team, Zhou Yunian opened his mouth and cursed loudly.
"Go away, what are you doing here now? Why don't you go back and tell Lieutenant Xiaolin to prepare the medicine and prepare for the operation!"
"Huang Sheng was so cunning. He actually learned the Eighth Route Army's method of laying booby traps. Although we captured him, we also suffered heavy casualties. The squadron leader also encountered a booby trap and was injured, and more than 40 imperial soldiers were killed and injured.
!”
"Didn't you see that we are carrying so many stretchers? Go back quickly, Lieutenant Xiaolin, and get ready. Many of the imperial soldiers are seriously injured and must be treated immediately, otherwise they will die!"
The sergeant could understand a general idea, and with the translation by the puppet platoon leader next to him, he immediately became anxious.
The squadron leader is the soul of the entire squadron. If something happens to him, the entire squadron will be implicated.
He replied without thinking: "Don't worry, Captain Zhou, I'll go back now and let the deputy captain get ready!"
The two Japanese soldiers and one puppet soldier ran back without any suspicion.
Li Hao's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and then he ordered to his subordinates: "Everyone has their bullets loaded and ready for battle!"
"All those who have short guns will use short guns to participate in the battle. After entering the stronghold, follow my orders and act, and end the battle quickly!"
The squadron leader was injured. Lieutenant Xiaolin was anxious on the surface, but very excited on the inside.
As long as the squadron leader is unable to command the troops due to injury, he, the deputy captain, will definitely step in as the acting squadron leader. If the acting squadron leader can achieve one or two military exploits during his term, then the word "acting" will definitely be removed, and the military rank will rise accordingly.
In order to be able to act as the squadron leader and convince the squad leaders, he had to put on a very anxious expression and give orders quickly.
"Order the medical soldiers and military doctors to get ready. Let's go to the door to greet the captain and confirm the captain's injury!
Li Hao followed Zhou Yunian at the front, wearing a puppet military uniform and looking like Zhou Yunian's bodyguard.
Hong Linfeng and several veterans followed closely.
Some were wearing puppet army uniforms, and some were wearing Japanese army uniforms. They all ran away with a box that had just been captured by Zhou Yunian's guard hidden in their bodies. It was full of bullets and could be taken out to shoot.
The riflemen walked at the end, all wearing puppet army and Japanese uniforms. Many uniforms were stained red with blood, and a strong smell of blood could be smelled from a distance.
Some of them held rifles in their hands, others carried rifles on their backs, and carried stretchers!
The nearly 200-meter-long team, holding torches, marched towards the stronghold in a mighty manner.
Fifty meters...thirty meters...
Everyone was getting closer and closer to the gate of the stronghold. A dozen Japanese soldiers and puppet troops were waiting at the open gate of the stronghold, waiting for Zhou Yunian to pass by.
"Let them get out of the way, let's run over!" Li Hao reminded in a low voice.
Zhou Yunian, who was walking at the front, understood and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Get out of the way, why are you blocking the door?"
"The squadron leader's wound has started to bleed again. Get out of the way immediately. Let's go directly to the infirmary!"
"Get out of the way!" Lieutenant Xiaolin ordered.
Although he said this, in his heart he hoped that the squadron leader would bleed to death directly.
The dozen or so people gathered at the gate of the stronghold immediately made way for an opening. Zhou Yunian and Li Hao rushed into the stronghold at a trot without stopping.
Under the cover of darkness and the fact that Li Hao and the others ran too fast, the Japanese and puppet troops guarding the door did not notice anything unusual.
It wasn't until Lieutenant Xiaolin followed the stretcher and ran a dozen or twenty meters and saw the soldiers guarding the stretcher quickly scattering, some rushing to the barracks, some rushing to the gun tower, and some rushing to the warehouse, that he realized something was wrong.
I carefully observed the imperial troops around me and asked in Japanese which team you were in.
There was no reaction from the other party. There was obviously a bullet hole in the chest of the uniform, but the other party was intact. Lieutenant Kobayashi was very sure that he had been fooled. They were not the imperial army.
After being shocked, he quickly reacted and shouted at the top of his lungs in Japanese, trying to alert the surrounding imperial soldiers.
"Baga...this is not the imperial army we sent out. We were fooled. We will shoot and kill them immediately..."
"It's too late!" A sneer suddenly sounded behind him.
While he was not resting, the three soldiers following him, one directly behind him and the other two on the left and right, picked up their rifles with bayonets and stabbed him in the body.
"Baga~"
Lieutenant Kobayashi had no choice but to hide. He watched helplessly as a bayonet was stabbed into his stomach, stabbing himself directly to the point of being heartbroken. He screamed and fell to the ground.
