"Now, I give the order!" After Hu Yizhou finished speaking, he glanced at the soldiers and civilians below with sharp eyes. He saw the worry in the eyes of the people, the anxiety in the eyes of the recruits, and also the veterans, especially the special warfare reconnaissance personnel.

The veterans of the company looked excitedly.

"I ordered the Second Company of the Second Battalion of the Jiuzhai Security Group to stay in Jiuzhai and protect our hometown. Second Battalion Commander Zuo Yiming is in charge! Zuo Yiming, the safety of my hometown will be left to you!" Hu Yizhou looked at the Second Battalion Commander.

"Yes! Complete the task resolutely!" Zuo Yiming took a step forward and said.

"Very good! The third battalion and the second company are stationed at Songjiazhuang in Erdaopo, and we will cooperate with the new recruit company stationed in Shexian County to guard our south gate! Qiu Feng, the commander of the third battalion and the second company, you are responsible for commanding the guards there! Remember, if the Japanese attack is fierce

Instead of fighting to the death, you can choose an opportunity to retreat and use the favorable terrain along the way to block the enemy!" Hu Yizhou looked at Qiu Feng.

"Understood!" Qiu Feng took a step forward and said.

"Jiuzhai Militia Company, march east along the mountain road, stationed in the villages along the way, and guard our east road! Li Xiucheng is in charge of your road! Li Xiucheng, remember, if there are Japanese troops along this road, their number will be

Not too many! And you have the geographical advantage and can make full use of the weapons in your hands to fight the Japanese! Remember to keep communicating!"

"I understand, just take a look!" Li Xiucheng said.

"Okay, here are the teams going out to fight! The second battalion, one company and three companies, the third battalion, one company and three companies, the artillery company, and the guard company set out eastward with weapons and ammunition supplies, stationed along both sides of the Qingzhang River Valley, and cooperated with the friendly 4th Cavalry Division.

Block the enemy's attack with the guerrilla detachment!"

"Jiang Dajiang, you are in charge this time! Remember, don't get into too much entanglement with the Japanese, and try to avoid positional warfare! In addition, I have made some advance arrangements in the Qingzhang River Valley. You can follow Huang He, Zhang Jiahao and the others

Let’s discuss how to use it!” Hu Yizhou said.

"I understand!" Jiang Dajiang took a step forward and said.

"Lao Jiang, remember, it is important to fight the enemy, but it is also important to ensure the survival of the soldiers. Don't fight the enemy easily! You must be good at using artillery, our special equipment and tactics!" Hu Yizhou said.

"After these battles with you, I understand some things very well! Don't worry!" Jiang Dajiang said.

"Okay! It's over to you! Guo Military Supplies, your logistics support battalion is responsible for delivering ammunition to the enemy team and transporting the wounded! Do you have any questions?" Hu Yizhou looked at Guo Jinglie.

"No problem, don't worry!" Guo Junzhi said.

"Zhang Jiahao!" Hu Yizhou called out his name.

"Here we come!" A handsome young man stood up.

"Your engineering company has just been established and has almost no combat effectiveness! But this time I want to send you to stop the enemy. Do you know what to do?" Hu Yizhou asked.

"Hey, I know! Just take a look! Although my legs are injured and I can't run fast, my brain is still functioning well and I will never lose my footing!" Zhang Jiahao said.

"Well, you retired from the Special Forces Reconnaissance Company! You know all about our casualties, and the eight veterans with you also retired due to injuries! We originally planned to let you go to the arsenal to be responsible for technical production, but you don't

If you are willing, I will set up a special engineering company for you!"

"Now, it's time for your engineering company to show its power! In terms of soil work, you should communicate more with Deputy Company Commander Huang He, he is an expert! As for the rest, you can take care of it! How many young men are needed? You

You can temporarily recruit from the villagers who have evacuated their homes! Remember to pay!"

"I know, don't worry! I will never embarrass the special operations reconnaissance company!" Zhang Jiahao said.

"It's not the Special Forces Reconnaissance Company, it's the Jiuzhaigou Security Group! It's Jiuzhaigou! It's the Chinese!" Hu Yizhou said.

"yes!"

"Now, except for the team left behind, the rest of the people salute your relatives...!" Hu Yizhou was the first to raise his hand to salute, saluting the surrounding villagers and the parents hidden among the villagers...

The Jiuzhai Security Group set out and arrived at Wangbao two days later, where all members began to prepare for the battle.

As for the Fourth Cavalry Division, they were stationed near Ma Tian and did not act together with the security group. Instead, the guerrillas of the Army Rabbits and the security group came together...

As time passed, the time came to April 4th.

On this day, the Chinese troops on the Taierzhuang battlefield continued to surround the Japanese and beat them up. The Chinese Air Force, which had not been seen for a long time, also made an appearance on the battlefield.

On this day, the Nine-Road Siege Campaign, which the Japanese called a mopping-up campaign, also officially began.

However, Hu Yizhou and the Special Forces Reconnaissance Company are missing from this battlefield!

What were they doing?

In the words of Hu Yizhou - make things happen, make things happen, make things happen!

Yes, Hu Yizhou knew that this battle would end with our victory, and dozens of county towns would eventually be recaptured! So Hu Yizhou was very relieved and handed over the team to Jiang Dajiang, and disappeared into the vast sky with his special warfare reconnaissance company.

In the Taihang Mountains...

As for what Hu Yizhou is going to do? We’ll talk about it later...

On April 4, 1938, the Japanese army began its nine-pronged siege in the southeastern Shanxi region! Wherever the Japanese army went, they massacred villages, exterminated families, burned, killed, and looted. Even if there was no so-called "Three Guangs Policy," it was still the same as the "Three Guangs Policy."

Almost the same.

Fortunately, the Chinese military had made preparations in advance, built strong walls, cleared the fields, and moved the masses, so as to minimize the losses of the people.

Starting from this day, China and Japan began a desperate fight for nearly a month on the land in southeastern Shanxi.

A battle overshadowed by the light of the Battle of Taierzhuang began...

To the north of Shexian County, along the Qingzhang River, there are many villages, but at this time, these villages have all "emptied out".

The security team and military rabbits arrived here in advance to carry out careful mass work, allowing all the people to temporarily move out of their homes and hide in the homes of relatives and friends in the mountains for a while.

The people cooperated very well. They packed, hid, and took away all the food at home. They also dug holes and hid all the useful things at home that could not be taken away. Then, they dragged their children with them.

The elderly and the young left the village where their ancestors had lived for generations and followed the Eighth Route Army and the security team.

As for the poultry and livestock that could not be taken away, the Eighth Route Army suggested throwing them away because it was important to save their lives, while the security group directly paid for them.

The logistics officers of the security team, who had been worried about not being able to buy meat at exorbitant prices all day long, were now happy. Not only did they spare the adult livestock, but they even spared the babies. They bought all the chickens, geese, piglets, and sent them back to Jiuzhai.
