Chapter 555 Retreat and Recruits

Xiaojieling is the name of a village and a mountain. The difference is that Xiaojieling is about two kilometers north of Xiaojieling Village.

After arriving at Xiaojieling Village, the security team completed its mission and no longer cared about the field hospitals and civilian personnel of the two armies. Everyone was adult and each had their own system. Hu Yizhou didn't need to worry about other people's affairs.

There is a Zhu Family Temple to the west of Xiaojieling Village, where there is a very old and thick ginkgo tree. The temporary base of the security team is on Yingpeng Mountain to the west of the ginkgo tree. It is less than 800 meters straight from Xiaojieling Village at the foot of the mountain, which is just enough to see Xiaojieling Village.

"Report to the team leader, we have completed the interweaving task!" Zhong Haifeng spoke.

"Well, hurry up and arrange for the doctors and nurses in the field hospital to rest and send the wounded into the temporary ward. Also, let Master Dao find a place, and 23 seriously injured people were sacrificed on the way. Let's have a grand funeral for the brothers!"

Hu Yizhou was not polite to Zhong Haifeng, and arranged work when he met. Zhong Haifeng quickly led the early soldiers to take over the stretcher team and carried the wounded into the ward.

The stretcher was swaying and unsteady. Some of the wounded, who were already seriously injured, died on the road after all.

Hu Yizhou didn't want his brothers to bury themselves halfway, so he asked everyone to carry them over. Now, he had to be buried in the soil and buried in peace.

Soon, Master Dao chose the place, and the soldiers dug the tomb pit together, and after a little cleaning, the grave was built. Unfortunately, there was no sacrifice for the brothers...

Since the security regiment arrived here, there have been a lot of soldiers who died. The cemetery alone has been scattered in several places. You have to remember these.

After burying the comrades, the soldiers began to cut down trees on the surrounding mountains to build temporary camps. The engineer company also led some soldiers to build fortifications to guard against the direction of Xiaojieling Village at the foot of the mountain and Xiaojieling in the north.

If nothing unexpected happens, the security team will stick here for a long time, so the construction of this camp is necessary. There are so many people in the village at the foot of the mountain, and Hu Yizhou does not want to harass the people.

When I first arrived here, there were no friendly troops around, so the security team could choose a place freely, and Yingpeng Mountain was ideal.

During this fortification construction, Hu Yizhou specially raised the issue of air defense and asked the engineers to build more air raid shelters. If possible, try not to destroy the vegetation on the mountain to prevent surveillance of reconnaissance aircraft.

The canyon where Xiaojieling Village is located is the first canyon running through the north and south of the Dabie Mountains. Later, the Beijing-Guangzhou Line was built here. Of course, there are no railways here now, but there are simple roads. It is probably built to transport materials from the Anti-Japanese War.

After the security team was temporarily settled, it began to carry out publicity and recruitment activities in the surrounding villages. The publicity mainly aims to make the people ready to move and hide at any time. Recruitment means recruiting new recruits for training.

In the report to Hu Yizhou on the peak, he said that he wanted to indicate new recruits, so he always had to do it. Of course, if there are suitable soldiers, it would be good to absorb and enter the security regiment, which could make up for the establishment of the first battalion.

Just as the security regiment was leading the people to move, the north Shopping mall and Baiqueyuan were attacked by the 16th Division and the 13th Division. The 42nd Army here in Baiqueyuan faced a brigade of the 16th Division, and the 30th Army and 71st Army of the mall faced most of the troops of the 16th Division and the 13th Division.

"Jiujiu...boom boom boom..." The Japanese artillery was particularly arrogant when they did not counter artillery fire, and the shells kept exploding.

"Kill Jiji..." Without the rocket launcher beating the tank, the Japanese armored troops led the infantry to cooperate with the intra-tank.

"Brothers, hold on, Wuhan will come later, so you must withstand it!"

Under the orders of their respective commanders, the soldiers of the National Army resisted the attacks of the Japanese with their flesh and blood, holding light weapons and even large blades.

In such a battle, it took two days for Commander Song and his team to abandon the mall and transfer the team to the Dabie Mountains.

So, with step by step, the defenders guarding the mall retreated south to the Xiangfengshu at the entrance of the Dabie Mountains Gorge to the direction of the Tachuandian, and the 42nd Army retreated to Shawo, more than ten kilometers north of Xiaojieling.

This canyon that runs through the Dabie Mountains has a fork in the Futian River, with two channels from east to west. The fork is about 7 kilometers south of Xiaojieling Village.

These two forks each have an exit, one is Shawo and the other is Xiangfengshu, which happens to be where the two armies are guarding. As for the position in the middle of the two gorges, they were guarded by the 30th army. This time, Commander Song and his team learned their lessons and fought for so long, and knew how to deal with the Japanese.

Their method is actually very simple. They are to defend the mountains on both sides of the canyon, use the powerful terrain to grind with the Japanese little by little, and it depends on who can end up.

This is an advantage. Because of the mountains, even if the Japanese artillery troops can enter the canyon, it is not convenient to transport. The defenders can also use the back slope to reduce the damage of the shells.

As for the Japanese armored troops, they are still okay with the teams at the foot of the mountain, so they are spared if they go up the mountain and cannot go up.

To put it bluntly, it is to use the terrain to reduce the intensity of the Japanese firepower, turning it into a battle between soldiers and guns, so that the firepower gap between the two sides can be further expanded as much as possible. It’s a pity that the Japanese have poisonous gas and the air force comes to bomb, and the defenders only have flesh and blood.

Well, these river valley passages can bring in the Japanese armored vehicles, and artillery soldiers can also come in, but they must have local guides. Otherwise, it is easy to be ambushed by the defenders using the terrain to familiarize themselves with them.

So, the Japanese summoned more than 120 traitors to lead the way, and there was no one else.

In this way, the three soldiers in front fought fiercely with the Japanese, but there was no battle in the Xiaojieling Security Group. Well, there was a friendly army blocking it in front, and it was very comfortable...

"One, two, one, two, one... Stand up, turn right... Who? No one can tell the left and right? Remember, the other side that helps the rope is the left..."

"This military posture is to enhance the image of your soldiers. The key points of your movements are..."

Well, the security team is not that comfortable either.

During the days when the camp was being repaired, Zhong Haifeng and his team moved around and attracted 300 new recruits. They were training now.
