Liang Jian: Lao Li, I'm really not a military expert

"Captain Li, what should we do with these puppet army prisoners? We can't kill them all. After all, it's a life," Doctor Wang Tiancheng asked curiously.

Lin Zhenhua quickly replied: "Doctor Wang, don't worry, Captain Li will not make any mistakes in this regard. Let them report each other, and kill those who are guilty of the most heinous crimes. The others will temporarily help us carry things, but we can't let them go!"

Lin Zhenhua knew Li Yunlong's temper and quickly answered for him.

"Brothers, hurry up and clean up the battlefield. Deal with the horses that were killed immediately and use them to carry them away. Don't waste any of them!"

Half an hour later, the battlefield was cleaned up and a total of 62 war horses and 62 sabers were obtained, in addition to some guns, ammunition, and some dry food.

Under the supervision of the soldiers, the puppet cavalry simply buried the bodies, and everyone immediately began to move.

Over the next two days, they moved at night and hid during the day, and finally arrived at the planned rest point, Lijiazhuang. This is the hometown of soldier Li Sanwa, located in Jinzhong area. There are not many people in the village, with only more than 30 households scattered around.

However, the geographical location of Lijiazhuang is very good. It is located on the edge of the Luliang Mountains. The terrain is about 200 meters higher than the surrounding villages. The mountain road is rugged and difficult to travel. The village has only one entrance and exit. If you can't withstand the attack of the Japanese, you can retreat calmly from the back mountain and directly enter the Luliang Mountains. At that time, you can lead the Japanese to circle in the mountains. It can be said to be an excellent place for attack and defense.

"Captain Li, you chose a great place. It's not an exaggeration to say that one man can hold the pass against ten thousand. With such a high terrain, we are in a commanding position and the Japanese can only attack from above. We can just take advantage of our firepower. As long as the Japanese don't come in large numbers, we can easily hold this place!"

When Li Yunlong heard Lin Zhenhua's praise for him, he also said arrogantly: "Student Lin, I'm not bragging to you. When it comes to fighting, I have never been defeated by anyone in the 386th Brigade. I am the commander's confidant and favorite general. Otherwise, I made so many mistakes and the commander would take the blame for me. It's because I am good at fighting. This is not something I boast about, but a reputation I have earned through fighting!"

Just when Li Yunlong was about to brag, he heard a crisp gunshot coming from Lijiazhuang in the distance.

"Damn it! This is the sound of the Japanese Type 38 rifle! Something terrible is happening! The Japanese have entered the village! Brothers, get ready to fight!"

Based on his battlefield experience, Li Yunlong quickly determined the model of the gun. Since his independent regiment was equipped with Type 38 rifles, he was very familiar with the sound of this type of gunfire. In addition, the sounds made by the Type 38 rifle and the Hanyang rifle were different when they were designed. As a rich battlefield veteran, he could easily hear it and made a decision at the first time.

Li Yunlong knew very well what the sound of Japanese gunfire coming from Lijiazhuang meant, but he could not lose his composure at this moment. He suppressed his anger and ordered the monk Wei Dayong beside him: "Monk, what are you still doing here? Hurry up and go to the village to find out the situation and see how many Japanese soldiers have come!"

"Yes, leader!"

Monk Wei Dayong is the spearhead of the guard company. He is usually responsible for scouting the enemy situation. Because of his good skills, he is almost used as a special forces soldier. The monk lived up to expectations and completed many difficult tasks.

After Wei Dayong left, Li Yunlong immediately arranged for everyone to tie the horses in the woods, hide them, and keep a close watch on the puppet troops. At the same time, he began to unload guns and ammunition in preparation for the next battle.

What followed was a boring and anxious wait. Lin Zhenhua was also very anxious, but he didn't know the situation in the village at the moment, let alone how many Japanese soldiers had come, or what arrangements the Japanese had made at the entrance of the village. Even though he was anxious, he could only wait patiently.

"Student Lin, I know you are very anxious, but fighting a war cannot be done with just passion, you must pay attention to methods and ways. As a commander, when encountering an emergency, you must stay calm. The more anxious you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes. In the end, not only will you fail to save the villagers of Lijiazhuang, but you may also lose more than 100 of our people!" Li Yunlong said earnestly.

Lin Zhenhua sighed and said unhappily, "Captain Li, I didn't control my emotions just now. If you hadn't pulled me back in time, I would have rushed over. Not only would I not be able to save the villagers, but I might even have killed the guard company. I won't do that again!"

Li Yunlong patted Lin Zhenhua on the shoulder and gritted his teeth and said, "To be honest, the moment I heard the gunshots, I also wanted to lead my men to rush forward. Even an old soldier like me would do that, let alone a new soldier like you. There is nothing to thank me for. Just be more careful next time!"

After a while, the monk Wei Dayong ran out of the village and said, "Captain, the Japanese came to Lijiazhuang to carry out a mop-up operation. There are probably a small team of them, and there are more than 20 puppet cavalrymen. Judging from the situation in the village, the Japanese and puppet troops should have just entered the village not long ago. Most of the villagers have fled to the back mountain. Judging from the gunshots, there should be villagers who did not escape and were blocked in the house by the Japanese!"

After Li Yunlong understood the situation, he immediately ordered: "Leave 20 people to guard the puppet army prisoners, and the submachine gun squad and machine gun platoon will disperse to kill all the Japanese and puppet soldiers in the village. Don't be stingy with ammunition for me, let the Japanese also taste the taste of being suppressed by firepower!"

"Zhu Zi, you son of a bitch, you must knock out the Japanese machine gun fire as soon as possible. Don't give them a chance to fire!"

"Student Lin, you are responsible for guarding these 30-odd puppet soldiers. If you find anyone who is not honest, shoot them directly. Don't give them a chance to escape!"

"Doctor Wang, you must also be prepared to rescue. Fighting street battles with the Japanese will likely result in casualties. You must be responsible for rescuing the wounded as soon as possible!"

"Li Sanwa, you are familiar with the terrain of the village. You are leading the way. Tell us which way we should go. You have to be careful. The Japanese are very accurate in their shooting. Don't show your head!"

Under Li Yunlong's arrangement, the soldiers rushed to Lijiazhuang with their weapons. Lin Zhenhua held the box in his hand, pointed the gun at the puppet army captives, and cursed loudly: "You bunch of damn puppet soldiers, you are very vicious, you like to bully the common people on weekdays, and you are afraid of death. You are unlucky to meet me. If anyone dares to escape, I will break his five limbs and let you taste the taste of life worse than death!"

"Don't think I'm just bragging to scare you. I'm telling you, I love killing traitors. I wish I could drown these traitors with my spit. You all should be obedient and don't cause any trouble for me!"
