"Bang, bang," as two chili pepper shells exploded in the turret, the Japanese above suddenly panicked. These were special bombs. They put down their guns one by one, took out gas masks from their backpacks, and put them on the pig's face.

It was at this time that Captain Li saw smoke coming out of the firing port of the gun tower. With a wave of his hand, all the soldiers who were lying beside the railway jumped up, picked up their rifles and rushed into the compound.

After the two tanks in the courtyard fired their guns, they no longer paid attention to the Japanese in the gun tower. Instead, they turned around and started shooting at the Japanese hiding under the wall with their machine guns.

The two machine guns rotated along with the tank, sweeping out a line of death. The few Japanese soldiers were immediately beaten and fled in all directions. Then, in the anger of a large number of Eighth Route Army soldiers, one by one was shot and fell to the ground.

Seeing that Zhao Hu had taken control of the situation, Chen Dashan covered five or six soldiers and headed towards the Japanese barracks. There were not many soldiers there, only some logistics troops and engineers who had evacuated here. Poor Captain Kawagishi discovered that

My subordinates only have one 38-gun with a bayonet, so it is impossible to use it against armored tanks!

This group of engineers also had twists and turns. The key was that they kept running away and had already lost their morale. When Chen Dashan knocked down a room and suddenly appeared in front of them, someone turned in with a roar, and all the engineers turned around and ran away.

Kawagishi was forced to carry Chen Dashan's armored tracks alone. After being cut off with his command knife, he was crushed into a bloody photo!

More than thirty Japanese soldiers were mopped down by five soldiers with submachine guns. The remaining ones could not resist for long under the bayonets of the guerrillas, and were knocked down by pieces of bullets. This was also because the guerrillas had not gone through the stabbing process.

In training, they all adhere to the concept of using guns instead of knives. Therefore, their close combat with the Japanese did not cause more casualties than the main force.

Many people in the miner guerrillas had worked here before, and they could feel the terrain everywhere with their eyes closed. Captain Li divided the troops into teams and rushed into the mine like mercury pouring into the ground. Before long, everywhere was covered with terrain.

There were gunshots and cries of traitors, but they had done a lot of evil in the past, and now, even if they screamed, they couldn't save their lives!

Groups of miners were rescued. When Political Commissar He saw these ragged and skinny compatriots, he couldn't help but shed tears. It had only been a long time before the Japanese tortured them all until they were no longer human. If this continues, it won't be useful.

In three months, these first batch of compatriots will be buried in mass graves!

When Lao He softened his heart, he was about to order the soldiers to cook food for the miners to satisfy their hunger. Zhao Hu urgently stopped him: "Political Commissar He, it's almost dawn now. We have to let everyone leave here first. By the way, we can't be empty-handed. These miners are against us."

Everyone in the mine is familiar with it. We must dismantle all the machines that can be taken away. In the future, our arsenal will rely on these machines to operate, and the ones that cannot be taken away must be destroyed. We cannot let the devils start working again!"

When Lao He heard this, he realized that he had almost made a mistake. The Japanese would find out at dawn and just send a few planes over, and a large group of miners would suffer heavy casualties!

The miners have long hated this place. When Lao He told them to dismantle the machines and transport them away, they were all full of power. If you dismantle the motor, we can move the diesel engine and water pump away, and you can find the big truck.

I can also drive a truck.

When Zhao Hu saw it, he had no choice but to step forward to stop him again: "Comrades and fellow villagers, we have to leave from the north overnight. We can't take the main road. We have to dismantle the machine, pick out the important ones, and take away the light ones, such as the boiler.

There is no need to carry it, it is too heavy to climb the mountain, those big things can be tied to the donkey, there are hundreds of donkeys behind..."

Of course, in addition to machines, there are also many grains in the Japanese granaries and explosives in the warehouses. These explosives and detonators were brought by the Japanese to mine. In addition to fire detonators, there are also electric detonators and detonating devices. The workers responsible for blasting the mines

He was so familiar with this that he didn't even need Zhao Hu's instructions. He made arrangements by himself and packed up bundles of yellow explosives and ammonium nitrate explosives and took them away.

There were thousands of miners in the team. Zhao Hu saw that the Japanese had a lot of diesel and gasoline in the machinery warehouse, so he asked everyone to find various tools and carry as much oil as they could. In the end, it was too much.

He secretly hid some in the warehouse and asked everyone to pour it on the coal pile. Before leaving, he set a fire and burned the coal together. Before leaving, Zhao Hu asked Xu Hongyuan and others to take more than 200 miners back to the bridge.

Go take a look, and if you have a chance, pull back part of the good angle steel.

The tank couldn't be taken away, so Zhao Hu asked everyone to remove the 37 cannon and machine gun on it, even the shell casings inside. Finally, Zhao Hu asked everyone to leave first as usual, and stayed behind to clean up the tank.

They said they were setting up booby traps, but in fact they were interested in the steel on the two tanks. These 95 tanks have diesel engines and are not easy to catch fire. Armor steel plates are also the best material. They are perfect for making guns and cannons.

.

I originally wanted to put both tanks into the warehouse, but unfortunately there were a lot of angle steel inside, so I could only put one in and the other was dismantled into parts and stacked aside.

When he saw that the miners had piled too many explosive bags inside to blow up the gun building, Zhao Hu put away half of the explosive bags and also put away some of the ones that were ready to blow up the mine.

It's good stuff, don't waste a pack.

Seeing that the white fish belly was showing in the east, Zhao Hu came to the empty officer's office, preparing to find an alarm clock and set a time bomb.

When he arrived at Chief Iwamoto's office, he found that the place had been hurriedly cleaned once. The maps and rosters on the wall had been collected by Political Commissar He. He stepped over the papers on the floor, opened the drawer again, and found a Japanese diary.

, there were a lot of things recorded in it, but I didn’t read it carefully at the time, so I put it into the warehouse first.

The desk was quite big, so he searched relentlessly and finally found a pistol and more than a dozen gold bars in the mezzanine. It seemed that this was Iwamoto's own small vault. Fortunately, he was careful.

When he found that he could no longer collect any more, Zhao Hu came to the outside of the mine with satisfaction and ignited the buried explosives. With a thunderous sound, the sinful mines were blown up one by one.

Recovery, haha...!

After setting up the booby traps, Zhao Hu left directly from behind the mine. The barbed wire fence here had already been damaged by the evacuating team, so he just had to follow the footprints to catch up.

Halfway through the walk, there was a rumble of thunder from behind. I knew it was a booby trap triggered by the Japanese. After a while, a black smoke rose from the east, gradually covering the sky and avoiding the sun. I couldn't help but muttered: "Who said anthracite coal is enough?"

There’s no smoke? If you pour gasoline on it and burn it, wouldn’t it still produce quite a lot of smoke?”

Heading all the way north, we finally caught up with the large group of people at the Zhaoshan River at noon and found that everyone was cooking. Zhao Hu and Political Commissar He said hello and sat down exhausted to rest.

While he was sleeping hazily, he heard someone calling him. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Xu Hongyuan and the others who had brought people back. This time, they not only brought a lot of steel, but also a lot of medical equipment. Zhao Hu let everyone have a meal.

, rested for a while, and then continued to lead the team. This place is not far from Yu County. If the Japanese attack from both sides, a group of thin miners will really not be able to escape.

At this time, spring flowers were blooming and vegetation was luxuriant. It was impossible to remove the traces of the large group of troops. Political Commissar He and Company Commander Li did not care. The Japanese suddenly lost so many troops. If they wanted to encircle and suppress themselves, they would definitely have to mobilize their troops again.

It seems to be safe in the short term.

At night, in a ravine only thirty miles away from Yu County, more than a thousand people stopped again. They were not physically strong and were carrying so many machines. The miners said they did not want to leave.

He was clamoring to cook something to eat.

Seeing that there was no danger along the way, Political Commissar He was ready to respond, but Zhao Hu instinctively sensed the danger. This time, he not only destroyed the Japanese railway bridge, but also blew up their tanks, and also captured their most important enemy.

In the mining area, the Zhengding garrison probably had all their thoughts. How could they stop in such a dangerous place? Maybe after a night's sleep, the surroundings would be full of Japanese soldiers.

Zhao Hu climbed to a high place and said loudly: "Everyone, listen to me. We are quite tired. We haven't slept all night and walked so much. Even I feel very tired. However, not far ahead of us is Meng

County, where more than 5,000 Japanese Japs have returned for reinforcements. Behind them, the Japs from Zhengding and Shijiazhuang are chasing after them. It seems safe in front of them, but in fact they have fallen into the enemy's encirclement. I don't think anyone wants to be caught again.

Have you gone to the mines to work as coolies?"

"If you don't go, I won't go even if you kill me. If you go, no one will come out alive..."

There was a commotion below, Zhao Hu raised his hand, suppressed his voice, and said loudly again: "Everyone usually does heavy work, this thing is nothing to us, right? Let's hold on a little longer and take advantage of the night.

After walking through this mountainous area and crossing Yuxian County, after dawn tomorrow, I will ask the comrades to kill a dozen donkeys as a tooth-beating ceremony for everyone, okay?"

When he heard that more than a dozen donkeys were going to be killed, Political Commissar He jumped up in pain and pulled Zhao Hu's sleeves.

Little did they know that the miners below became happy: "Okay, they say dragon meat in the sky and donkey meat on the ground. We haven't touched the meat of the ground for a long time. Let's work harder and run all night. If we are safe, we will have donkey meat to eat."

Already..."

Zhao Hu whispered to Political Commissar He: "Political Commissar, the situation is very dangerous now. We cannot stay for a moment. In this way, I will lead the engineering class to explore the road. As long as we cross the road in front, it will be safe by tomorrow. Although it is

It’s a big mountain, but as long as the Japs surround the outside, no one with more than a thousand people can escape.”
