I am a wolf warrior

"Really?" Okamura Ningji said, "The Sui army is moving so fast?"

Inoue Yasushi said: "The Sui army has actually already advanced to the east of Wuliangsuhai, and is ready to attack Baotou. It is only because Chang Kaishen has not allowed it that they will not move."

"Give Baotou City to the Sui army for the time being, and we will take it back later." Neji Okamura snorted, and said again, "Is there any movement from the Jin army?"

Inoue Yasushi said: "Yes, the 33rd Army of the Jin Army crossed the Yellow River from the west of Shanxi to enter northern Shaanxi last night, and will soon be able to enter the Houtao Grassland by way of it, and then block the ferry on the west bank of the Yellow River."

Neiji Okamura said: "Northern Shaanxi is the Eighth Route Army's defense zone. Didn't the Eighth Route Army obstruct it?"

Inoue Jingdun said: "At least so far, the 33rd Army of the Jin Army has not encountered any trouble."

"Yoshi, then there shouldn't be any problem." Neiji Okamura nodded happily, and then asked again, "By the way, where is Mizuhara-kun? Why isn't he in the battle hall?"

Inoue Yasushi said with a smile, "I went to Yoshino's again to order lunch for everyone."

While speaking, Mizuhara Takuya had already walked in from the door, and said with a smile, "Lunch has been ordered."

Yoshimoto Sadaichi smiled and asked, "Suwon-kun, what are you having for lunch today? Do you still eat charcoal grilled wagyu beef?"

"Hai." Mizuhara Takuya said after a meal, "Everyone has worked so hard these days, so they should eat something good, so lunch is sushi and charcoal grilled wagyu beef, and everyone has a pot of sake."

Hearing this, cheers erupted in the combat hall.

Wagyu beef is a high-end ingredient. Although the salary of the devil officer is not low, it is not often available. Mizuhara Takuya has invited everyone to eat Wagyu beef these two days, which can be said to have gained a wave of goodwill.

Even Neiji Okamura was a little hesitant, should he run Takuya Suhara?

I have to say that Takuya Mizuhara's ability is really strong, and he is very good at being a man.

How good would it be for such a talent not to betray the empire and sell information?What a pity.

However, Okamura Ningji quickly put away these useless emotions, and said to Mizuhara Takuya: "Mizuhara-kun, our political means have worked. The 33rd Army of the Jin Army has crossed the Yellow River westward, and went to the rear through northern Shaanxi. , ready to block all the ferries on the west bank of the Yellow River in Houtaoduan, the [-]th brigade's escape route to the west has been cut off."

"Great." Mizuhara Takuya said overjoyed, "In this case, the [-]th Brigade may not be able to escape."

Okamura Ningji said again: "But with Chen Gen and Wang Ye's deceit, the [-]th Brigade will definitely not wait to die. They will definitely launch a breakout operation after completing the cover mission."

After a pause, he said again: "Which direction do Mr. Suyuan think the [-]th Brigade might break out from?"

"This, I'm afraid no one will be able to guess." Mizuhara Takuya shook his head and said, "Your Excellency, instead of trying to guess which direction the [-]th Brigade will break out from, it is better to strengthen the military blockade. Deploying heavy troops in every direction, no matter which direction the [-]th Brigade breaks out from, it will only be a dead end!"

"Yoshi." Okamura Ningji said, "Mizuhara-kun has mentioned the important point, strengthen the blockade!"

After a pause, Ningji Okamura said again: "The question is, how should the imperial army strengthen the blockade?"

Mizuhara Takuya smiled slightly and said: "It's very simple, just return it in the way of others."

"Return it in the same way as others?" Neiji Okamura couldn't help showing a knowing smile on his face. It's really amazing that Takuya Mizuhara's thoughts coincided with him again.

Neiji Okamura also wanted to use the marmot defense line to block the defense area of ​​the [-]th brigade.

It has to be said that the groundhog defense line of the [-]th Brigade is really a sharp weapon in defensive warfare, but everything has two sides. If there is a good side to things, there will inevitably be a bad side.

For example, the groundhog defense line, when the [-]th Brigade used it for defense, it can be said to be a magic weapon.

But once the situation was reversed and the Eighth Route Army attacked and the Japanese defended, then the groundhog line of defense would immediately become a nightmare for the [-]th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army.

At that moment, Neiji Okamura turned his head to Yasushi Inoue and said, "Mr. Inoue, immediately call the 1st, 27th, and 110th divisions to complete the encirclement of the bandit area from the north, southeast, and three directions."

"Also tell Nakaze-kun and them,"

"After the encirclement is completed, there is no need to launch a strong attack,"

"It only needs to expand and strengthen the groundhog defense line."

"The 26th Division and the 3rd Tank Division immediately returned to defend Datong,"

"Prevent the Sui army from continuing eastward after occupying Baotou and threatening to return to Sui."

After a pause, Ningji Okamura said again: "The remaining five divisions retreated to the Anhua County, Malan Town, and Jiugong Town to build a second blockade line to ensure that no Eighth Route Army can break through!"

"Hai!" Inoue Yasushi paused, turned around and walked quickly into the communication class.

On the other side, Masao Inamori, the head of the combat section, brought several combat staff officers, and quickly presented the deployment of Neiji Okamura on the sand table.

……

In the blink of an eye, another two days passed.

It was getting dark, and the ferry at Wanmadu was busy again.

The brigade commander brought Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo and several guards to the ferry.

I saw under the night, the fathers and villagers were boarding the boat in an orderly manner.

It has to be said that our party's organization and coordination ability is very strong. Under the coordination of party organizations at all levels, hundreds of thousands of people gathered outside the dock without any chaos.

The militia was not even needed to maintain order.

Without waiting for the brigade commander to ask questions, Zhao Gang said: "Up to now, most of the people have crossed the river, and now there are probably more than [-] people who have not crossed the river, but they will definitely be able to cross the river before tomorrow."

"Can we all cross the river before dawn tomorrow?" The brigade commander said in surprise, "It's only been four days. Doesn't it mean that it will take at least seven or eight days? Huh?"

Zhao Gang said: "Our previous estimates were a bit conservative."

The brigade commander said: "That is to say, we can prepare to break through tomorrow?"

"Yes." Zhao Gang nodded and said, "We will definitely be able to break through tomorrow."

Hearing this, the brigade commander suddenly sighed, and the expression on his face became gloomy.

The brigade commander said: "It's time to break out, but Xiao Wang's wolf warrior brigade hasn't come back yet. Without the wolf warrior brigade, our Northwest Shanxi column will have no eyes and noses. I'm afraid the battle to break out this time will be difficult." .”

"The breakout battle will definitely not be easy." Zhao Gang asked, "Brigade Commander, I heard that the devils haven't attacked much these two days, and they are only focusing on expanding and strengthening the fortifications, right?"

"That's right." The brigade commander said in a deep voice, "The devil has obviously changed his strategy. He no longer wants to attack us to death, but is planning to use a long-term blockade to trap us to death! In this way, the fortifications we built before , that groundhog line of defense designed by Xiao Wang, has instead become the devil's defensive weapon."

Zhao Gang said: "This is really like lifting a rock and shooting yourself in the foot."

"No." The brigade commander said helplessly, "I don't even know how to break it."

Xing Zhiguo said: "Brigade Commander, why don't we forcefully cross the Yellow River? Why doesn't the Jin army let us cross the Yellow River in column?"

"Forcing the Yellow River is definitely not possible." The brigade commander shook his head and said, "Although there are enough ships, we can transport all of our northwest Shanxi column across the river at one time, but the problem now is that the 33rd Jin Army has already built a coastal line on the west bank of the Yellow River. There is no way for us to go ashore because of the river fortification, and this battle cannot be fought."

You can't float in the river to fight the Jin army, right?

The Jin army is very poor in offense, but it is still good in defense.

Facing the strict defense of an army of the Jin army, coupled with the barrier of the Yellow River, the brigade commander was not sure.

It is also impossible to go down the Yellow River by boat, because this section of the Yellow River has a large drop and the current is turbulent, so it is possible to ferry back and forth by boat, but not down the river, it is courting death.

If you can't cross the Yellow River westward, you can only break through from the front.

However, the Japanese army has realized the strength of the groundhog defense line, so how easy is it to break through from the front?

"Brigade Commander, let's wait for a few more days." Zhao Gang said, "I believe that Xiao Wang will return safely, and the Wolf Warriors will also return. Chen Zhuang will never be able to trap them."

The brigade commander said: "That's the only way."

……

Wang Ye was following Lin Han in the dark.

In the darkness, Wei Xilai whispered, "Captain, I'm hungry."

"Captain, I'm hungry too." Duan Peng's voice sounded immediately, "I haven't eaten for two days."

"Damn, who hasn't eaten for two days?" Wei Dayong said angrily, "You are hungry, but I am still hungry, or you will eat me up."

"You?" Duan Peng said, "I don't eat stinky meat."

"Fart." Wei Dayong said angrily, "How do you know my meat smells bad?"

Duan Peng said: "Isn't that what the big guys say, smelly monk smelly monk, you are a monk, meat must be smelly, it doesn't taste good, I won't eat it."

"Captain, I want to eat meat."

Wei Xilai's stomach started to growl.

Being disturbed by Wei Xilai, even Wang Ye felt very hungry.

There was no way, they had been fighting the devils in the tunnel day and night for almost four days and nights. At the beginning, they still had dry food on them, and later they robbed the little devils of their supplies.

Later, even the devils ran out of food, so they could only go hungry.

But fortunately, their small team is invincible in the tunnel.

After nearly four day and night scuffles, at least [-] devils were directly killed by them, and more than [-] militiamen, local troops and regular troops were gathered by them.

But there were no casualties among the dozen or so of them.

Now the area with a radius of 500 meters in Chenzhuang has been cleared.

The 500 people gathered were also temporarily organized into ten platoons by Wang Ye, and then continued to move towards the periphery, trying to gather more people, until all the devils within a radius of ten kilometers from Chenzhuang were cleared, and then the survivors The local militia, local armed forces and regular army all gathered together.

It should be said that the most difficult stage has passed.

Because at the beginning, a small unit of the Wolf Warriors Brigade was cleaning up the battlefield, so the progress was very slow, but now in addition to the Wolf Warriors Brigade, there are ten more platoons who can join in the cleaning without any worries, and the cleaning speed will definitely be faster. Speed ​​up, Wang Ye estimates that it will be completely cleaned up in about three days.

If nothing else, the final victory must belong to them.

None of the devils trapped within a ten-kilometer radius of Chenzhuang could survive.

But the Eighth Route Army who was also trapped in this area is probably not many people left.

According to Wang Ye's estimate, there are about [-] regular troops, local armed forces, and militias trapped in this area, and the remaining [-] will be the victory.

But now there is a food shortage problem.

This is troublesome, and he can't change the food.

Because all the villages in Northwest Shanxi have been hardened and cleared, all the food that can be taken away has been taken away, and the villagers have donated it to the army as military food.

So these villages really don't have a grain of food.

At this time, he happened to pass a foxhole. Taking advantage of the faint moonlight leaking from the opening of the foxhole, Wang Ye looked back at the team members behind him, and saw that all of them looked weak.

Apparently, the team members were already very hungry. With this posture, it might be difficult to continue fighting.

While he was worrying, a story suddenly flashed in Wang Ye's mind, and he immediately signaled Duan Peng to come forward and asked, "Duan Peng, I remember that you Shanxi people have the habit of hiding food, right?"

"Yeah." Duan Peng nodded and said, "It's a habit. When the times are good, they hide the unfinished food and save it for the bad years."

Wang Ye said again: "I heard that there are people who mash sweet potatoes to make bricks and use them to build walls. When there is a famine, they remove the bricks to satisfy hunger. Is there such a thing?"

"I've never seen this before." Duan Peng said, "But I've heard people say it."

Wang Ye said: "If, I mean if, if there is such a family in Chenzhuang who makes bricks of sweet potatoes that they can't eat and puts them in the courtyard wall, then he must have no time to give these sweet potato bricks to them before transferring them. Dispose of it, right? Firstly, these sweet potato bricks are not easy to dispose of, and secondly, he also feels that the devils may not be able to find it."

Duan Peng said: "If it were me, I wouldn't touch the sweet potato brick courtyard wall."

Wei Dayong said: "Captain, whether there is such a thing or not, go back and look for it."

"It doesn't necessarily have to go to Chenzhuang." Wang Ye said, "A nearby village is fine."

At that moment, Wang Ye took a dozen or so wolf warriors from the tunnel entrance to the foxhole. They had already cleaned up this foxhole, and they had already cleaned up all the devils nearby.

And not far from this foxhole, there was a village.

But this village hasn't been cleaned up yet, so there must be devils hiding in it.

In addition to the devils, there must be the Eighth Route Army in the village. No one can do anything to each other, so a balance of terror has been reached, and neither side dares to act rashly.

Taking advantage of the moonlight, Wang Ye observed the village a little.

This is a small village with only about 20 families.

After confirming the size and location of the village, Wang Ye led the team back to the tunnel.

Immediately, Wang Ye called Wei Dayong, Duan Peng, Lin Han, and Liang Jun to the front, and assigned tasks to the four, and Wei Dayong and the four left one by one with two team members.

Wang Ye led Wei Xilai into the tunnel for the last time.

After walking for a distance in the tunnel with seven turns and eight turns, we came to a crossing.

I saw three devils lying down near the crossing, their necks were bleeding out.

These three devils were obviously killed by the group of wolf warriors in front.

Chapter 582

Wang Ye took Wei Xilai up from the tunnel entrance to the ground, and then came to the row of private houses on the north side of the village under the moonlight. This row of private houses was in charge of Wang Ye and Wei Xilai.

A dozen or so wolf warriors were divided into five groups, each responsible for a small area.
