After Kong Hao arrived and both parties confirmed their identities, they had all the special forces members line up to receive Captain Bai's inspection.

"Commander, we are the advance team of the independent regiment. My last name is Kong, and I am here to survey the terrain on the orders of Commander Li."

"Welcome, Captain Kong, thank you for your hard work!"

"You guys take a half-hour break first. Our people will be on guard. We will go into the mountain together later."

Kong Hao didn't say much when he heard this. He just said thank you and went down to rest.

They traveled for two days and one night. Especially in such an unfamiliar place, they needed to stay alert at all times and everyone's nerves were on edge.

Now that we are in our own territory and have our own comrades on guard, it is time for all team members to take a break.

However, after Kong Hao walked away, the second battalion commander approached cautiously and said in a low voice:

"Captain, when did our Eighth Route Army have such a well-equipped unit? I just took a sneak peek and saw that in addition to the four men carrying rifles of unknown models, they also had four Czech light machine guns and four grenade launchers. The rest were carrying submachine guns, and I also saw that each of them seemed to have a small pistol on their legs."

"Equipment like this is not available to us, not even the Japanese, let alone our Eighth Route Army."

After hearing this, Captain Bai sighed and said, "This is definitely not an ordinary troop. I guess even the headquarters guard regiment can't have such luxurious equipment."

"And did you notice that there is a man in Captain Kong's unit who is carrying a box on his back? If I'm not mistaken, it should be a military radio."

Hearing the word "radio", the second battalion commander exclaimed:

"That's impossible. This team has a radio. You know, it's a rare thing. Even our military sub-district doesn't have one."

When Captain Bai heard Captain You yelling so loudly, he quickly reprimanded him:

"Why are you talking so loudly, as if you're afraid others can't hear you."

"Tell everyone in the Second Battalion later that since they don't want to reveal their identities, don't ask them deliberately. Keep everything you saw today to yourself and strictly abide by the confidentiality system."

"Okay, Captain, I'll pass it on right away."

After resting for half an hour, Captain Bai led everyone forward, but when passing a village, they encountered an emergency.

"Captain, the Wangjiabao ahead is surrounded by the Japanese. All the villagers are in the threshing ground. The enemy has a squadron, and they are our mortal enemy, the Okamoto Squadron."

"We did some reconnaissance and heard from the Japanese that some of our wounded soldiers were recovering in the village and were tipped off by a traitor in the village, which led to the enemy's massive hunt."

After hearing this, Captain Bai's face wrinkled into a "川" shape. If they had encountered this situation in the past, they would definitely have found a way to rescue the trapped civilians, even if it meant killing all the people in the Second Battalion of the Second Independent Regiment.

But now they have a more important task. Once problems arise with Captain Kong's team, it will definitely affect the headquarters' plan, and the impact will not be limited to their entire regiment.

Captain Bai sent someone to find Kong Hao and explained the current situation in detail. He also said seriously:

"Captain Kong, I will send a squad of soldiers to take you to the regiment headquarters. I will stay with the second battalion to lead these little devils away and rescue the villagers inside."

"This place is too close to the Japanese stronghold. Once a fierce exchange of fire breaks out, nearby enemy reinforcements will arrive in two hours. We have to hold out as long as we can."

"When you return to the regiment headquarters, tell Political Commissar Su not to let anyone else come to rescue us. If we are lucky, we should be able to escape."

"I hope my comrades will not be sad and will continue to fight."

Kong Hao looked at the sad atmosphere and immediately spoke to comfort them:

"Captain Bai, I thought it was a big deal, as if we were parting ways and leaving each other with last words. It's just a squadron of Japanese soldiers, what's the big deal?"

"Hand these enemies over to our action team. We are sure to rescue the villagers and kill all the devils at the same time."

After hearing this, Captain Bai immediately emphasized in an extremely serious tone:

"Captain Kong, don't underestimate the enemy. The Okamoto Squadron is the mortal enemy of our Independent Second Regiment. Our regiment fought with them some time ago and suffered heavy losses."

"The Okamoto Squadron has about 180 people. It is the strongest mobile force of the Japanese nearby. It is like a mad dog, biting people everywhere all day long."

"If all of our regiment were here, we could barely fight them off. Now we only have one Second Battalion with relatively poor combat effectiveness. Alas, we can only fight with all our might and save as many as we can."

Kong Hao hurriedly said with a smile: "Captain Bai, I am telling the truth. It is just a squadron of Japanese devils. As long as the plan is proper, we can definitely wipe them out at the lowest cost."

"Take us to the scene for a first-hand observation, and then formulate the next battle plan after you come back."

At this time, Wangjiabao was in a panic. The brutal Japanese drove all 150 people in the village to Daguping, trying to force them to tell the whereabouts of the wounded Eighth Route Army soldiers.

A middle-aged man came out. He had a standard traitor hairstyle and a pistol slung across his shoulder. He shouted loudly through a loud speaker:

"My fellow villagers of Wangjiabao, I am Wang Yaozu. Although my family has moved to the county town, I grew up here since I was a child. We are all from the same village."

"The Locust Army said that as long as you hand over the wounded Eighth Route Army soldiers that you have hidden, you will be rewarded handsomely."

After he finished speaking, he pointed to the pile of food looted from other villages behind him and said proudly:

"Okamoto Taijun is so kind and righteous that as long as you hand over a wounded soldier from the Eighth Route Army, you can get two large bags of food. This is such a great favor. Young and old men must not miss this opportunity to make a fortune."

But after hearing this, no one in Wangjiabao went to check on the grain, and no one spoke. The atmosphere at the whole scene fell into silence, as quiet as death.

Everyone present stared at Wang Yaozu, the biggest villain in Wangjiabao, with hatred, even the little kids were like that.

A big traitor appeared in Wangjiabao, which made the entire Wang family unable to hold themselves up in the surrounding area and brought shame to the ancestors of the Wang family. Whenever everyone went out to other places, they would be pointed at.

Seeing that the people of Wangjiabao were so ignorant of the current situation, Wang Yaozu immediately felt that he had lost face in front of his master, so his eyes rolled and he thought of a vicious plan.
