Dong Limao thought about it for the middle of the night and thought it was feasible to go to the valley to save people, but there was a suspicious place, that is, why did the Japanese devils decide to act the night after tomorrow, rather than the day after tomorrow? Are they afraid of exposing their sins? Or do they have other purposes?
This problem made Dong Limao puzzled, but he didn't have time to find out further, so he had to prepare first.
Before dawn the next morning, he woke Gou Hao and Liu Yudong up.
"I first go out of the city to observe the location where the Japanese want to kill the captured officers and soldiers, and then go back to the company's garrison to bring troops over. We have to take action after the Japanese escort the officers out of the city. You two stay in the city. If the Japanese make any major moves, they must report them in time."
Liu Yudong asked: "If there is any situation, where should I find a company?"
Dong Limao thought for a while and said, "I will lead the company and ambush the Japanese in the place where the Japanese are buried tomorrow. If there is any movement in the city, one of you two will continue to stay in the city and the other will walk up the road in Shangsongshan. We will definitely see the secret whistle." After Dong Limao said that, he was always uneasy and muttered in a low voice: "Why are the Japanese killing them at night?"
"Company Commander, do you suspect that Li Xiangyun's words were fraudulent?" Liu Yudong was a detective after all. After hearing Wu Wei's words last night, he always felt something was wrong. When he heard Dong Limao's muttering, he realized that it was indeed like what Dong Limao said. Why didn't the Japanese set the time for killing captured officers and soldiers in the daytime, but at night. So, they don't know when it will be late at night, whether it is the first or the second.
"Do you think something is wrong?" Dong Limao asked Liu Yudong.
Liu Yudong nodded and said, "I always think what Li Xiangyun said is a bit too simple. On the surface, there seems to be no loopholes. But when I think about it carefully, I would have pulled the captured soldiers out and buried alive at night. Did they not consider that if the news leaked, would it be easy to be attacked by nearby guerrillas or our spy companies at night?"
Dong Limao suddenly realized his heart and slapped his palm on his thighs: "That's right, you've got the point. It turns out that the little ghost is thinking like this. I'm saying why is there always something wrong here?" Dong Limao seemed to understand what was going on: "We will proceed as planned. If the Japanese don't have any major conspiracy, then we will naturally rescue the officers and wounded soldiers. If this is the situation set by the Japanese, then we will use a trick and turn around to rescue the brothers detained in the prisoner-of-war camp. However, you two are the key, you must keep an eye on the Japanese.
I saw a large number of Japanese devils walking towards Songshan. One of you two must be ahead of them and report to me, and the other stayed in the city. When you see a signal flare rising outside the city, you will find a way to make some noise in the city. The bigger the better. Set firecrackers, but don’t be near the prisoners of war, as it is easy for the Japanese to see our intentions. It is best to be in the west. Then go to the gate of the east city to meet us... Since we cannot rescue the officers and soldiers who are going to kill the Japanese devils, we might as well rescue the other detained soldiers."
After setting up the arrangements for Liu Yudong and Gou Hao, Dong Limao set off the road. After he left the city, he waited in the woods on the side of the road. In less than an hour, several trucks and motorcycles drove towards Songshan from Longling. He took the shortcut, used the woods as cover, and followed him. After about an hour, the truck stopped on the side of the road. More than a hundred soldiers wearing military uniforms got off the car, and were forced by the security team and more than a dozen Japanese devils with guns. They walked into the woods, walked through a pine forest, and came to an open space in a valley. A man who seemed to be the leader roared loudly and began to command the more than a hundred captured soldiers to dig a pit. Machine guns were set up around the side, and as long as someone wanted to escape, they would be shot at any time.
Dong Limao walked around and looked at the terrain clearly before leaving quietly.
Fortunately, Dong Limao became more conscientious. His and Liu Yudong's speculation basically met a big conspiracy between the Japanese devils.
This pit was dug by Yamada, but it was not only for the officers and wounded soldiers, but mainly for Dong Limao's spies.
After Yamada arrived at Longling County, he first went to the 56th Division to visit Nagato Matsushita in a field hospital in Longling City. He learned from Nagato Matsushita's overall combat methods. Yamada was engaged in intelligence. He heard about the defeat from Nagato Matsushita, which was very helpful for him to analyze Dong Limao's command and arrangement of combat methods. Finally, he formulated a pit digging plan, and the tightness inside began to be implemented. The tightness inside was to ensure that the plan was absolutely not leaked. Only the corps leader stationed in Longling County and himself knew that Matsushita was to release the news and let some things that should not have known, but accidentally let them know that they were going to bury officers and wounded soldiers. Otherwise, how could Li Xiangyun know about this?
Yamada fought on the riverside after the bombing of the Huitong Bridge and Koji Ikeda's fishing plan were finally torn apart. He judged that these were all done by Dong Limao and led the spy company, which indicated that they were in the nearby mountains and forests. So Yamada deliberately set up this pit digging plan to lure Dong Limao's spy company to the place where the captured officers and wounded soldiers were killed in the Matsuyama pit, and completely annihilated the spy company that made the Japanese soldiers afraid of talking.
Of course, before this, he tortured many captured high-level officers, but did not get much valuable information. He didn't know that among these captured officers, there was a particularly important intelligence official, otherwise he would not have done this. Yamada didn't expect that his old enemy Dong Limao had already secretly competed with him.
Killing these officers was something the Japanese had long thought of. Yamada thought that it would be better to use these officers before they died. Based on his judgment on Dong Limao's personality traits, as long as he knew that the Japanese military was going to kill officers and wounded soldiers, he would definitely come to rescue him. Of course, even if the spy company could not be attracted, it would be necessary to kill these soldiers.
Dong Limao knew that if he wanted to accomplish this, it would be impossible to succeed with more than 100 spies alone. He thought of Zheng Chengkui.
Yang Rong took Wu Weijia Xiao and walked out of the city on the mountain road and headed straight to Zheng Chengkui's village. Because he was with his women and children, he could not ride a bicycle and a horse, he arrived at the village the next night.
After settling down the young queen of Wu Wei's family, Yang Rong roughly told Zheng Chengkui about Dong Limao's entry into the city this time.
"So that's the case. So, Brother Jiacheng entered Longling City just to find that intelligence officer! He is too cautious, why is it not convenient to tell me about this?" Zheng Chengkui was a little angry with Dong Limao after hearing Yang Rong's words, and felt that he was not trusted, and he felt very upset.
"Captain Zheng, it's no wonder that Company Commander Dong. The fewer people know about this, the better. I think Company Commander Dong is a good person. It's true that he is well-known and has courage and strategy. I, Mr. Yang, rarely convinces people, and he is a person." Yang Rong really admires Dong Limao very much.
While the two were talking, Li Dequan took Hu San in.
After Dong Limao rushed back to the secret service company's headquarters, he summoned a few responsible persons to hold a simple meeting and arranged this battle mission, ordering Pan Guangzu to take a squad to bring a rocket launcher, rockets and explosives to the cave where the ammunition and medicine were hidden, so that they could join Zheng Chengkui's troops at the east gate of Longling City for the purpose of siege, and then asked Hu Sanqi to rush to Zheng Chengkui's village to rush.
Hu San took a few sips of water, and in order to make it clear and calm, he spoke to Zheng Chengkui and said, "Captain Zheng, our company commander, please help me."
"Why don't you help me? You should tell me quickly. What does Company Commander Dong want me to do?" Zheng Chengkui asked in a hurry.
"The company commander said he wanted to save a group of officers and soldiers captured by the Japanese devils. The spy company was not in enough staff. He asked Captain Zheng to bring the mountain villages and set off overnight tonight. Before dark tomorrow, he rushed to the mountains and forests near the east gate of Longling City to meet with a squad of rocket launchers led by the military officer, cover them up, and prepared to meet with the captured officers and soldiers who escaped from the city. If the battle to siege the city does not start, do not expose the hiding position. After hearing gunshots from Songshan to the east, pay close attention to the Japanese army coming out of the city, drag them away for at least half an hour, and then evacuate. The company commander also said, don't be in love with the battle." Hu San was illiterate, but had a good memory, and basically explained the combat deployment that Dong Limao asked Zheng Chengkui to cooperate with.
"Good guy, your spy company has a rocket launcher squad! No wonder the combat power is so strong!" Zheng Chengkui said with a laugh, then frowned and asked, "Did your company commander come out of Longling City?" He heard Yang Rong talk about Dong Limao staying in the city, how could he plan a battle that was about to start so quickly?
"The company commander got the latest information and learned that the Japanese devils were going to kill a group of captured officers and soldiers tomorrow night, so he left the city in advance to arrange a rescue plan." Hu San replied.
"Haha... Brother Jiacheng still didn't forget me, okay! Go back and tell your company commander, I'll take up the troops now and do what he said!" Zheng Chengkui said with a smile, as if Dong Limao invited him not to fight, but to be a guest.
"Captain Zheng and I will act together. If there is any situation, I can convey it to the company commander in time." Hu Sanlizheng replied.
"Li Dequan! You bring a row of left-behind clans, and the rest of the people will follow me to assist the spies in fighting the Japanese! ***! Finally, we are going to have a big fight!" Zheng Chengkui rubbed his hands and gave orders to Li Dequan.
Dong Limao believed that Zheng Chengkui would definitely send troops to help, so he took the 5th Company of the spy and rushed to the ambush site overnight.
Yamada in Longling City was also further thinking about his plan to dig a hole, sitting cross-legged and closed his eyes and sitting on the tatami.
Since he was scorched by Dong Limao, he was always awakened by nightmare in the middle of the night. He hated Dong Limao to the point where he had penetrated his bones. He wished he could swallow him alive before he could relieve his hatred. During this period, Yamada has devoted his main energy to how to hunt and kill the spy company. Through the intelligence analysis collected from all aspects, he basically understood some of Dong Limao's style of dealing with people. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy, you will never be defeated in a hundred battles. Yamada has been determined to die if he fails to succeed, and is ready to destroy the spy company led by Dong Limao from this earth.
"Report to Colonel Yamada! General Sakaguchi is here to see you!" A guard reported outside Yamada's bedroom.
Yamada quickly stood up from the tatami, thinking that General Sakaguchi was visiting late at night, there must be something important. He put on his beloved kimono, walked out of the bedroom, put on the neatly arranged wooden clogs at the door, followed the guards to the living room.
