The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 97 Back to the Carbine

Yamamoto realized that the stronghold was several kilometers away from the prisoner-of-war camp. If it was just gunfire and the sound insulation effect of the valley, it might not be able to hear it from the stronghold.

But what the captain in front of him meant was that the stronghold heard the sound of gunfire, and it was very clear.

Then contact the prisoner-of-war camp that Yamamoto witnessed in ruins.

It should be that the enemy who attacked the prisoner-of-war camp used a large amount of explosives before evacuating to blow up the noise from the prisoner-of-war camp in one fell swoop.

As for some faint sounds heard before the stronghold, it may be the sound of the grenade explosion between the two sides.

Yamamoto was a little puzzled.

It's just a prisoner-of-war camp. Since it has been successfully destroyed, why use explosives to blow it up in one fell swoop, even at the expense of exposing it?
Perhaps it was a flash of inspiration, Yamamoto seemed to realize something, and hurriedly led the team back to the prisoner-of-war camp, and searched and probed in a more internal direction that had been ignored by everyone before.

Soon, Yamamoto made a big discovery.

Go to the mountain road deep in the occupied area. Because it has rained a few days ago and the soil is loose, it is easy to leave ruts after the truck passes by.

Yamamoto found two of these ruts on a dirt road leading deep into the Occupation, both fresh and the arched ruts hadn't even dried.

One is from the direction of the mine to the direction of the prisoner-of-war camp. Yamamoto speculates that this is the rut that was pressed by the truck when the prisoners were sent to the prisoner-of-war camp.

The other route departed from the prisoner-of-war camp.

Every time the secret service team rushed to the prisoner-of-war camp for training, they took a transport truck. Before that, Yamamoto did not find the shadow of the truck in the ruined prisoner-of-war camp.

Therefore, Yamamoto has reason to suspect that the enemy who sneaked into the prisoner-of-war camp robbed the truck of the secret service reserve soldiers.

Follow the deeper ruts away from the POW camp.

After successfully attacking the prisoner-of-war camp, these daring guys did not immediately escape from the Niutoushan area with the help of a truck. Instead, they seemed to deliberately pass the news through a big explosion, misleading the Japanese military to search outside, and then drove the truck in the opposite direction. , Killed a carbine!
It's no wonder that I almost dug three feet into the outer area of ​​escaping Niutoushan, but I couldn't find these enemy troops who sneaked into the prisoner-of-war camp.

After regaining his senses, Yamamoto immediately locked his target in the direction of the mine.

Yamamoto communicated with the headquarters through the radio, and after reporting the situation, he immediately led his special agent team and rushed to the mine first.

--------

On the other side, when the Japanese army was still tossing around in the outer area of ​​Niutoushan, Kong Jie had already driven the truck to send the commandos and soldiers of the national army to the vicinity of the mine.

Get up close, and the roar of a truck engine can easily lead to exposure.

Kong Jie and his team temporarily hid the truck beside a hidden mountain road, and after covering it with trees, the team set off on foot and entered the mine.

On the way, Dong San, a former soldier of the 85th Division of the National Army, said to Kong Jie: "Commander, the place we are going to is a coal mine mined by devils. Coal mining is a technical job, and some important equipment and equipment are indispensable. Tools like boilers, winches, fans, hand drills, etc.”

"These equipment are all good things. Although they can't be directly used in the production of guns and ammunition for our team, they can be modified slightly, and they will definitely come in handy."

Talent!
Kong Jie stared at Dong San fixedly, the more he looked at it, the more pleasing to the eye, this kid is really clever!

In other words, this time, not only can the national army soldiers captured in the mine be rescued, but also a batch of equipment and tools can be obtained by the way. This is a sure-fire business.

"Good boy, after the battle in the mine is over, you are in charge of keeping an eye on it, and take away all the equipment and tools that can be of great use to me." Kong Jie arranged.

"Yes!" Dong San replied, glancing at the howitzer triumphantly.

Your kid can shoot, the head likes it.

But we can repair firearms, hehe, it seems that the leader likes it more.

Soon, the mine was getting closer, and the outline of the mine could be seen from a distance. The monk said, "I have been mining here for nearly three months, and I am very familiar with this place, little devil." Where to guard and where to deploy troops, I know very well in my heart."

The howitzer said happily: "I have to prove this for the monk. The monk, this kid, has been thinking about how to escape from the mine during this time."

After continuing to get closer, the situation of the mine could be roughly seen with the naked eye. Kong Jie climbed up a high slope and observed with a telescope for a while.

There are many busy workers outside the mine, dressed in various clothes, most of them are wearing the clothes of ordinary people, some are wearing the clothes of the national army, about two to three hundred people, of course, the general appearance of unkempt and disheveled It's about the same.

These workers seem to be using dustpans, back baskets, and bamboo baskets to transport coal from the mine to the outside.

There are also some mule-drawn carts outside. After the workers transport the coal out of the mine with back baskets and bamboo baskets, they pour it into the carts of the mule-drawn carts, and then are pulled by the mule-drawn carts to several trucks parked nearby.

Longer-distance coal mine transportation relies on these transportation trucks.

Devils with rifles stood on both sides of the road, and some puppet soldiers in charge of supervision and urging, with whips in their hands, roared like dogs from time to time. On some higher ground on both sides of the road, there were several light machine guns set up by the devils. fortifications.

In all directions, wherever the workers passed by, there were Japanese and puppet troops guarding them. There was at least a small squad of devils and a platoon of puppet troops.

"Workers here, how are they paid? Are there any wages?" Kong Jie noticed that the origins of these workers were also somewhat complicated. Some of them looked like captured national army soldiers, and some seemed to be ordinary people, so he tried to ask.

Howitzer scolded: "Little devil is inhumane, he doesn't take our lives seriously at all."

"I was only given one meal a day, and I was still half full. I worked for them day and night. Those people were captured by force. They were not physically as good as us soldiers. When they were boiled to death, they were tortured by devils and The puppet army pulled them out and buried them."

"It's only July and August. It's okay to say that the weather is hot. When it comes to the twelfth lunar month of winter, the little devils don't give people a rest. Workers die every two days."

"Damn it, these bastards."

Although he had expected the cruel exploitation of the devils, Kong Jie couldn't help being angry when he heard it with his own ears.

This further strengthened his determination to destroy the devils in front of him and destroy this mine.

The monk seemed to feel Kong Jie's anger, and said, "Sir, when I was working, I noticed that there is a small road that can go straight into the central area of ​​the mine, that is, there. If we suddenly go out from there, the little devil will definitely kill you." If there is no defense, it will definitely work.”

Kong Jie nodded and arranged: "The commando team is divided into three combat teams, each with about eight people, and each battle team is divided into seven brothers from the national army."

"Cao Zheng, Mu Mu, the two of you lead the third combat team to the far right wing of the mine."

"Ye Min, you take the second combat team to take charge of the left wing of the mine."

"Monk, you and I are in charge of leading the way. The first combat team burst out from the middle of the mine."

"The second combat group and the third combat group, listen to the gunshots from the first combat group."

"Remember, once a battle breaks out, you must kill all the devil's machine gunners as soon as possible."

"Yes!" Cao Zheng, Mu Mu and Ye Min responded in unison.

Before leaving, Kong Jie asked the soldiers of the national army, saying:

"Brothers in the national army, I have taught you how to use this German-made MP38 submachine gun before."

"You have never used this kind of firearm, it is not easy to control, try to choose a single point, do not shoot in bursts, aim at the enemy, pull the trigger and release it quickly."

After finishing speaking, Kong Jie said to the commandos:

"The brothers of the national army have stayed in the concentration camp for too long, and they are probably a little unfamiliar with firearms at hand. After a while, the battle will start. Arrange their battle sequence at the back and try to take care of their safety."

"Yes!" The team members responded in unison.

The soldiers of the national army who participated in the battle were stunned, and their hearts warmed up. People's hearts are full of flesh. Along the way, the commander of the Eighth Route Army in front of them can be said to have taken good care of them, and they were inevitably moved.

It's just that this is not the time to say these words of gratitude.

The soldiers of the national army secretly made up their minds. When the battle starts, they must perform well and must not disappoint the chief of the Eighth Route Army...
