In order to win the Battle of Wuhan, many Japanese main divisions began to advance towards Wuhan from the north and south sides. Wherever the army reached, except for a few military key areas with garrisons defended, most of the defenders in remote small cities were about to collapse.

Given the relationship between time and force, the Japanese army occupying the cities along the way also focused more on cities at the county level. As for the towns and villages they passed by, the Japanese army had no time to take care of them for the time being, and could only be handed over to the puppet army that was formed.

The Japanese army, which had just occupied Chuzhou for the previous period, recently began to order the defenders of various cities to raise materials for the frontline combat troops. To raise a large amount of military supplies, it means that both the Japanese and the puppet troops must plunder the people as much as possible.

Compared with the areas where the main force of the Japanese division passed, the anti-Japanese armed forces operating behind enemy lines were less daring to do anything. As for places like Chuzhou, the Japanese army did not have many troops stationed, and their control scope was mostly limited to county towns or road areas.

Although Hu Biao, who was passing here, was not sure what the New Fourth Army guerrillas were ambushing at the three-way intersection late at night, and what he had in mind. But he could still guess what convoys or men should pass by on this road tonight.

Looking at the two arrested scouts, Hu Biao tempted with words and confirmed his guess more. After looking at the map, Hu Biao continued to smile and said, "No surprise, do you want to ambush the convoy that has been here?"

Faced with Hu Biao's further temptation, the two scouts continued to remain silent. But one of them looked at Hu Biao and others, and finally said, "You are not spies! Who are you?"

Being selected as a scout means that you are smart. If Hu Biao and his party were really spies bought by the Japanese, then the guerrillas had been lurking before, and it would have been ambushed by Hu Biao and his party long ago, and the road would not have been so quiet!

Regarding the scout's inquiry, Hu Biao smiled and said, "Okay! What are our identities? You know a lot, it will not be of any benefit to you! If it weren't for you two, we wouldn't have been dragged here tonight. Wait patiently!"

Just as Hu Biao was chatting with two scouts, Zheng Jingwu, who was responsible for receiving the telegram, quickly stepped forward and said, "Captain, there is something wrong!"

"explain!"

"According to the reconnaissance team's report, a convoy was driven in Lai'an direction! There were three cars, plus a Japanese squad, and a small number of puppet troops and cattle and carriages. Judging from the direction of the convoy's journey, you should arrive here in an hour!"

"I understand! Order the reconnaissance team along the way to continue to implement surveillance! Send a report to Sandao and let him pay attention to the road situation in the direction of Chucheng. I always feel that it is obvious that the Japanese transported supplies in the middle of the night, which is obviously abnormal."

"Yes, captain!"

After listening to Zheng Jingwu's report, Hu Biao sent instructions to the other reconnaissance teams to let them monitor the road sections. In Hu Biao's view, the Japanese should be clear that there are anti-Japanese armed forces in their area, and they must also want to lure them out and encircle and annihilate them.

The ambushed place of the guerrillas is indeed good. However, correspondingly, they also need to bear the reinforcements that may come from the other two directions. Once the Japanese use the convoys to install the convoys as bait, the guerrillas will be in trouble.

Hu Biao, who was hiding aside and waiting quietly, soon received a telegram from Xu Sandao from Chucheng. As Hu Biao expected, when the convoy heading to An set off, several cars were driving from Chucheng.

Upon receiving a telegram from Xu Sandao, Hu Biao sneered: "As expected, this is really a fishing tactic! Order the reconnaissance teams to continue observing! As long as there are no large number of reinforcements, the units will continue to stand on the spot!"

"Yes, captain!"

As the anti-Japanese armed forces active in the occupied areas were more often attacked, the Japanese army began to learn to use some bait and use some fake news to lure the anti-Japanese armed forces to dispatch. The Japanese army also took this opportunity to encircle and annihilate these anti-Japanese armed forces.

For the anti-Japanese armed forces behind enemy lines, they have to fight bravely with the Japanese, and the same needs to fight wits. If they are not careful, they may fall into the trap set up by the Japanese. In terms of information transmission, the Japanese are much faster than the guerrillas.

After finding Qin Tianyou, Hu Biao pointed to the road ahead and said, "Take you all over and set up an ambush circle in that area. After the battle here begins, the Japanese from that direction should come quickly to reinforce.

What you have to do is to wipe out all the Japanese who came to reinforce from Chucheng. As for the New Fourth Army guerrillas, I and the other combat platoons watched, nothing could happen. After the battle, let’s continue to hurry up and hurry up!”

"Yes, captain!"

After entering Anhui Province, Qin Tianyou and others were also prepared to take on the battle at any time. However, this kind of battle is often hastily and short-term. Once the battle is over, the troops will leave quickly without giving the enemy a chance to get entangled.

Even if the Japanese army noticed something like this, they would mistakenly think that it was done by the anti-Japanese armed forces behind enemy lines. They could not guess what this matter had to do with the task force. Fighting a shot and changing the place can ensure the safety of the troops to the greatest extent.

What surprised Hu Biao was that not long after that, the reconnaissance team that went to Laian and sent another urgent telegram to Hu Biao. Looking at the urgent telegram sent by the reconnaissance team, Hu Biao also said unexpectedly: "There are actually cavalry!"

After thinking for a while, he said, "Zhuzi, go and call the platoon leader of the Special Second Company!"

After a while, Lei Xiong rushed to the temporary command center where Hu Biao was. After learning that there was a Japanese squadron cavalry behind the convoy transporting materials, Lei Xiong was also excited and said: "Captain, why leave this to us?"

"That's right! The cavalry is extremely fast. Once the battle is in front, I believe that the Japanese cavalry will come to reinforce quickly. What your fire platoon needs to do is to wrap this cavalry squadron up. No one is allowed to run away for me by one person or one horse!"

"Please rest assured that the fire platoon will ensure that the task is completed!"

"Follow the pillar to get the ammunition you use! The ambush position should be set on the highway two miles away!"

"yes!"

As a new member of the task force, Lei Xiong also hopes to have the opportunity to advance to his position. However, the promotion of the task force also requires military achievements as capital. As the platoon leader of the firepower platoon, Lei Xiong must also make more contributions.

When fighting with the company, Lei Xiong is not able to make many achievements. Only by fighting independently can Lei Xiong and his team members gain more contributions. Lei Xiong is still very confident in letting him lead the fire platoon and deal with a Japanese cavalry squadron.

The reason is that, except for a few riflemen, most of the members of the firepower platoon are machine gun firepower players. The proportion of light and heavy machine guns is the largest in the entire task force. This does not include the machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns provided by Hu Biao at any time!

The guerrillas who rushed to the ambush area in advance and were speeding up the time to build an ambush position did not know that their ambush tonight was actually a trap. A team of only more than 100 people in total, and the consequences of ambushing so many Japanese troops can be imagined.

Fortunately, perhaps Hu Biao happened to take his men through here. After learning that the Japanese wanted to fight the guerrillas, Hu Biao decided to take a trick. When the battle started, I believe the Japanese would feel caught off guard!

Hu Biao lurked near the guerrilla ambush area with a sniper team. Hu Biao told several team members: "After the battle starts, we will focus on solving the Japanese machine gunners and officers. Before the guerrillas fire, we are not allowed to shoot at will!"

"clear!"

As the convoy arrived less and less, the road became quieter. The guerrillas lying ambushed by the road also looked at the road ahead: "Will the information be wrong? Will the Japanese really come so late?"

"It should be true! During the day, didn't our scouts say that the Japanese have raised good supplies and are ready to send them to Chucheng?"

"Will this be a trap?"

"Who knows! Let's take a look first! If there are too many Japanese escorts, we won't fight. If there are few Japanese escorts, we will fight. No matter what, we need supplies. Without guns and food, how can the troops expand and develop?"

When fighting behind enemy lines, if the New Fourth Army guerrillas want to develop and expand, they also need a large amount of guns, ammunition and food. Even if the New Fourth Army treats slightly better than the Eighth Route Army, they still have many restrictions.

If you want to expand and develop, the New Fourth Army can only expand its troops by attacking the Japanese and using ammunition and materials seized from the battlefield. As for the guerrillas that set up an ambush, they have already pulled out the main force of the guerrillas tonight.

The guerrillas still have a lot of confidence in fighting the puppet army and small groups of Japanese devils. But if they really encounter a large number of Japanese devils, the guerrillas can only avoid the edge. Recently, Japanese devils have been tortured by them.

Many convoys transporting supplies were plagued or attacked during transportation. For the Japanese army stationed in Chucheng, they naturally wanted to pull out the guerrillas and get rid of them quickly. This is why such a bait was laid.

When the sound of the car engine came from the front of the highway, and the headlights that could be seen from afar, the guerrillas lying on the ambush position also entered the state of war. The commander in charge of observation also began to pay attention to the situation of the convoy.

"Three cars, and some cattle, horse and carriages! I only saw the puppet army, but not the Japanese. What's going on?"

"Will the Japanese stay in the car?"

"It's possible! Captain, what should I do? Will I fight?"

"Fight! There are only three cars, and even if there are hidden Japanese soldiers on it, I believe there will be no large number of people. Tell the soldiers that they must fight quickly. After the battle, clean the battlefield and evacuate them immediately and return to the base!"

"Yes, captain!"

Regarding the discussions between the guerrillas, Hu Biao, who also saw the appearance of the convoy, was naturally not clear. In fact, Hu Biao was also speculating whether the guerrillas that were ready for ambush would start a battle.

If the guerrillas did not fire, Hu Biao could only watch the convoy leave. But he felt that with the guerrillas' troops, if the guerrillas really came for it, they would not miss such an excellent opportunity.
