In such a large primeval forest, finding hundreds of people hiding is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Although the Japanese were extremely embarrassed and angry about this, they were eager to find the fourth camp to avenge their revenge, but they had no choice.

In the end, it was unknown whether the tenacity of the Fourth Battalion made the Japanese warriors highly alert from their hearts, which led to the Japanese warriors not daring to rush to the night without any hesitation. They were afraid of being attacked in the middle of the night, so they had to wait here for a night. Only at dawn did they dare to leave a brigade and equip the brigade with a large amount of weapons and ammunition, but they continued to lean on their legs and set off towards the Sanqiao County.

The brigade that stayed on Qinglong Mountain not only had to take care of the wounded, but also had to guard against the sneak attacks of the Fourth Battalion, and also did a good job in security and protection of the roads around Qinglong Mountain, especially in terms of material supply. At the same time, it was also the intention of receiving the large army if something happened... Anyway, this brigade was stationed on Qinglong Mountain, which was of great significance.

Although the remaining troops of the fourth battalion were no longer able to hold back the speed of the Japanese devils, who were mainly engaged in a regiment, they were still confident that they would fight guerrilla wars with this Japanese brigade.

So, next is the story of the battle between the Fourth Battalion and the Japanese brigade. However, compared with the battle in Sanqiao County, the Fourth Battalion can only be regarded as a small friction.

If the Fourth Battalion fought fiercely, then the battle to defend Sanqiao County was not only fierce, but also had to add a word - tenacious! Extremely tenacious. In this regard, the evaluation of the Japanese war history, "The Chinese people fought extremely tenaciously in this small county, forcing the imperial army to fight with it with equal eyes"... You should know that at that time, in the eyes of the Japanese who were so arrogant that they considered the best in the world, the Chinese army was not of the same level at all, just like the meaning of the four words "Sick Man in East Asia". In the Japanese, the Japanese could respect the Japanese, this was the highest evaluation of the Chinese soldiers at that time.

In some ways, this was made by the assault regiment with blood and bayonets: no matter how the enemy views itself in advance, they can only fight! The enemy who is fighting has to pay attention to it, the enemy who is fighting has to respect it, the enemy who is fighting has to put away his arrogant heart, and the enemy who is fighting has to be frightened. Use the swords and guns and passionate chests in his hands to exchange for the dignity of the nation, and the enemy who is fighting has to recognize the cruel reality and actively lower their heads that they think are noble.

...

Zhang Qingshan led the first battalion, the fifth battalion and the second battalion in Sanqiao County, and immediately made intense and heavy deployments. Fortunately, Hu Yingze led the fifth battalion and some hospitals, propaganda teams and other units in Sanqiao County, which greatly reduced the work such as building fortifications and building bunkers in the county town, so that Zhang Qingshan and the other battalions only needed to deploy according to the location and fortifications of the county town.

The propaganda team has long been scattered to various villages and towns to launch propaganda. There are three main points: First, organize each village and quickly move to the depths of the base area in an orderly manner. If it is really impossible to transfer, you must be vigilant; second, militia from each village stay, part of them go to the county town to protect the construction of fortifications, part of them stay in their own villages to prepare for security, and also joint defense. In this regard, the guerrillas are mainly responsible for this; third, mobilize everyone to hide everything they can eat. In this regard, the people hate the spirit of the Japanese, and can be seen from a point: if they really can't take away their own food for a while, they would rather burn it, bury it, and fill the well than to the Japanese. Of course, most of them are voluntarily donated to the Eighth Route Army, and then transported it to the rear by the Eighth Route Army, and then taken out to the villagers.

The guerrillas are mainly responsible for the joint defense of each village and town, as well as destroying the Japanese logistics transportation lines. Another thing is that the Japanese ambushed the single Japanese and the traitors coming in outside... After the assault regiment controlled three counties including Sanqiao County, the traitors here were quickly removed, so there are no other places, but there are absolutely no traitors in these three counties.

In terms of medical care, the best doctors and medicines in the three counties and towns were urgently recruited, especially Western medicine - in war, the most urgent thing is surgery, and Western medicine is indeed a little better than traditional Chinese medicine in terms of surgery. The key is that it takes effect faster and is not that troublesome.

Moreover, all of these doctors were divided into multiple teams under the leadership of the assault regiment's medical team, stationed in various places around the county town to facilitate the transport of wounded and timely treatment of wounded people. Of course, the best medical team consists of five good at surgery to retrieve bullets or remove them, and have experience in this area. Another five doctors can perform some necessary emergency treatment work such as bleeding, and there are thirty nurses and one hundred stretchers composed of militias. The reason why all require militias to form stretchers and distribute guns and ammunition is that when necessary, the stretchers can immediately become soldiers, not only to cover emergency transfers of medical staff and wounded people when necessary, but also to form commandos when necessary to break through the Japanese blockade line. Moreover, these militias were all selected by nearby villages and are very familiar with the nearby terrain.

There are many departments, such as the Logistics Department, which have direct relationship with the war, which have left most of the people. Others have been transferred to the rear long ago.

As for the people in the city, they can be said to be empty. A few days ago, they were all moved to the rear. However, at this time, there were many people in the city sweating profusely. If you look carefully, you will find that these people are all young and middle-aged people. Because they are either militia or young people from nearby villages, they are gathered to build fortifications here. Because the assault regiment has calculated accurately, no matter how strong the city wall is, it cannot stop the cannons, and the most cruel street battle will be the best tactic to drag down the Japanese.

Everything shows that when Zhang Qingshan and others arrived, they were ready to welcome the war.

So, when Hu Yingze came here, when he saw all this, he was moved, and held Li Ming, the captain of the Sanqiao County Guerrilla Brigade, and said only one sentence: "Thank you for your hard work, comrades."

Then he turned around and said to the soldiers who brought him, "Did you see it? If the Japanese don't drive them out, how can you be worthy of the hard work of the villagers and comrades?"

To be fair, Hu Yingze said less, or what he had just arrived here did not see that the villagers and comrades in the guerrillas rarely built fortifications during the day, not! To be precise, at the beginning, they were indeed busy day and night, and they were full of energy, but later the Japanese planes bombed every day, forcing everyone to rest during the day, repairing the bombed fortifications and building new fortifications at night.

Because at the beginning, everyone didn't know how to avoid bombs. When they saw the Japanese plane, everyone just kept running around, but as a result, many villagers were killed and injured.

However, after the villagers cried for their relatives and friends who were killed and injured by the bomb for a night, the next day, they asked their families to take the body back, wipe away their tears, and continue working... They worked day and night, grinding blood bubbles with their palms, picking them and continuing to dry them, wiped off the blood from their feet, finding something to burn them into ashes, scattering the ashes on the wound, tearing off a strip of cloth from their body, tied them, and continuing to dry...

Later, I don’t know who leaked the speed or could not complete the task within a specified time. After the villagers found out, they not only went home to summon all their relatives and friends to help repair the fortifications, but also sent representatives to find Li Ming and proposed to send people to the mountain to guard them. Everyone continued to work during the day. In this way, before the Japanese plane came, everyone could avoid it. Moreover, they could fill a brick and a tiles for the fortifications to the greatest extent... At that time, all the guerrillas and propaganda team members who were moved turned around to wipe their tears, proud of the people behind them.

As a result, the children's group also has a place to use it.

When Zhang Qingshan brought his men to Sanqiao County, all the scheduled fortifications were basically completed.

Therefore, Zhang Qingshan thanked the villagers. The dinner that day was prepared very well, and he thanked the villagers for their strong support. If it weren't for the strong support of more than 2,000 villagers, such a large amount of workload would have been impossible to complete with the people and guerrillas sent by the assault regiment. To put it bluntly, I'm afraid that if the glutinous rice used for "cement" could not be collected so much, let alone completing tasks and building so many, such solid fortifications.

At the same time, it is also for the upcoming war, to boost morale and let the soldiers have a good meal, and also thank the soldiers for their efforts in the upcoming fierce war.

Many people cried for that supper, and many people laughed: What the villagers cried was that so many good men in front of us would die for the country, and they would die for the rest of their lives. What was laughing was that we Chinese men still did not change their true nature in the face of the Japanese hoof, and dared to die, so that the Japanese invaders could see the heroic ambitions of our Chinese men.

What the soldiers cried was that they were loyal to the country but could not fulfill their filial piety to their parents, and they were sorry for their parents' grace to raise them; what they laughed was that they could fight the Japanese together with many brothers, live and die together, sing military songs generously together, and sacrifice their lives for the country together and proudly laughed.

Fortunately, no one is drunk!

Although Zhang Qingshan personally issued a quelling order, he also issued an order that everyone had only one bowl of wine... He could not only express his affection with his fellow villagers and his comrades, but also use wine to show the heroic feelings of my dignified man.

After everyone had enough food and food, and after the villagers left, Zhang Qingshan ordered the Fifth Battalion, which was the reserve, to complete the last fortifications... The First Battalion and the Second Battalion will be prepared to fight tomorrow. As the reserve, the Fifth Battalion should not be used on the first day, so it is most appropriate for them to complete the last fortifications.

Finally, the soldiers waited in their respective predetermined positions, while Zhang Qingshan and other leaders began to wait for the troops sent out day and night to pass the results back.

Waiting for the effort, time passed quickly, and the Japanese finally arrived.
Chapter completed!
