On the eve of the wedding night, Du Shengxi went out to fight with the brothers in the mountain village, and Zhao Xuemei's heart was tightly clung to each other.

In the past, Du Shengxi went out to fight, but Zhao Xuemei was very worried. This time, the boss brought almost all the special forces members of the copycat to fight. This is a very rare situation in the copycat, which shows that the enemy situation is very serious and the risk of going out to fight will be very high.

big.

Zhao Xuemei was reluctant to leave Du Shengxi and persuaded him not to go this time, saying that the boss had agreed not to let him go. However, Du Shengxi was determined to go, saying that the more this time, the more we should share the joys and sorrows with the boss.

Zhao Xuemei could also understand Du Shengxi. After all, he was a leader of the parody. When the brothers in the parody were fighting the enemy to the death, how could he stay at home just because he wanted to get married?

Zhao Xuemei did not stop him, but just told him to be careful when he went out and helped him get out clothes. She smiled and looked as if nothing had happened. However, when Du Shengxi really left, Zhao Xuemei felt extremely sad.

She leaned against the door and looked at Du Shengxi's gradually disappearing back, tears couldn't help but roll down.

At this moment, she even doubted whether her choice was right. After marrying Du Shengxi, she might be like this in the future.

But, in this cruel war era, what choice can she have?

Wang Sanniang understood Zhao Xuemei's mood and specially accompanied her overnight.

When Gao Jiu and others won the battle and sent the good news back, the people in the village cheered. However, Zhao Xuemei became more and more nervous. Although the village won the battle, there were always casualties in the battle.

Zhao Xuemei thought resentfully: "Why don't Du Shengxi, a guy who doesn't know the heat and heat, tell me about my safety in the telegram?"

Wang Sanniang understood Zhao Xuemei's mood, and she had the same experience. Wang Sanniang's husband was a businessman. He went to do business outside the pass seven years ago. All the people who went with him came back, but Wang Sanniang's husband died outside the pass.

Wang Sanniang remembered her sad past and felt a little sad. However, she is now the recognized eldest sister among the women in the village. Women are willing to tell her anything in their hearts, and she consciously assumes the responsibility of the eldest sister.

.

Wang Sanniang shook her head, tried hard to dispel the unbearable past in her heart, and comforted Zhao Xuemei and said, "Miss Xuemei, with the boss, what are you worried about? When you set out, the boss is not letting him go with him.

Does it mean that he is thinking about you in his heart, so don’t worry, the boss will not let your fourth boss take risks.”

When talking about the boss, Zhao Xuemei seemed to feel more at ease. During the war, Gao Jiu charged forward and retreated behind. He was not only bold, but also careful, and as much as possible, he would not let the team members take risks with him.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xuemei reluctantly smiled and said, "Sanniang, you are right. The boss and the second boss are not afraid of it. My family will be happy and will be safe."

Wang Sanniang knew that Zhao Xuemei would slowly adapt to such a worried life. However, she still accompanied Zhao Xuemei and waited with her for Du Shengxi to come back.

According to the time when Gao Jiu and others returned to the village as mentioned in the telegram, accompanied by Wang Sanniang and others, Zhao Xuemei went down the mountain early to the entrance of the valley, waiting for Du Shengxi to come back.

At this moment, seeing Du Shengxi come back without any injuries, Zhao Xuemei's tears gushed out. She ran over to Du Shengxi regardless of everyone's eyes.

Du Shengxi jumped off his war horse and hugged Zhao Xuemei who was rushing over tightly in his arms.

The men in the village were all bachelors, all looking at the Siding House with envy, screaming and cheering.

Zhang Quan smashed it, smashed it, and said, "Jiu Master, the Fourth Head of the House is really lucky! Hurry up and marry a wife from the village. If you take the lead, we will also ask for a wife."

"Yes, the boss, there should be a wife in our village who is overwhelmed."

Everyone saw the relationship between the boss and Jiang Xiaomei. Seeing that Jiang Xiaomei was next to Gao Jiu, everyone deliberately made a fuss and turned their attention to Jiang Xiaomei.

Jiang Xiaomei had peach blossoms on her face, her face blushed, and she looked at Gao Jiu with resentment.

Gao Jiu laughed and said, "Okay! Let's hold a wedding for the Sidun family and Xuemei girl today. We will marry each of you in the future, haha!

When Zhang Quan saw Wang Sanniang, he deliberately said, "The boss, after the wedding is finished for the Siding family, it is time to hold the wedding for Wang Sanniang and Feng Xiucai. Otherwise, let them get married with the Siding family and the Siding family.

Ha ha!"

Guo Hengming smiled and said, "I think it's OK, the second leader's words make sense." With the continuous victory, Taohua Mountain Village is becoming more and more prosperous. His temperament is becoming more and more cheerful, and he also jokes with Wang Sanniang.

.

A red cloud also flew on Wang Sanniang's face. She stared at Zhang Quan and said, "Second leader, you are a guy who doesn't have a door on your mouth, just making fun of me. I won't tear your mouth apart."

As she said that, she reached out to pinch Zhang Quan. Zhang Quan hurriedly avoided, and everyone laughed.

After a big victory, everyone was happy. Soon, the people in the village heard the news and went down the mountain to welcome the special forces back triumphantly.

Taohua Mountain Village held its first wedding since the establishment of the mountain village. The wedding was very lively and the whole mountain village was full of joy.

After the wedding, Gao Jiu and Taohua Mountain leaders, Chief of Staff Liu of the 187th Division, Wang Zhankui, the commander of the 24th Regiment of the Newly-organized Battalion, Jiang Xiaomei, the commander of the Independent Battalion, and Yang Jiong, political commissar, held a joint meeting.

Today, the newly-edition 187th Division controls Zhiyuan County and Lanxi County.

Gaojiu's Taohua Mountain controls the surrounding areas of Taohua Mountain and has a significant influence on Shoucheng County.

The Independent Battalion not only has more than 400 basic cadres of the Independent Battalion itself. Their power has developed to sixty or seventy villages, and has established several district squads and many militia organizations, which has a significant impact on Pingyue County.

force.

The three companies unite will have a huge impact on the situation in southwestern Shandong.

The meeting discussed related matters of the three joint operations, and agreed to maintain contact and communicate information in daily life. Whenever a war is not possible, the other two companies will have to make every effort to rescue them.

If any company has a suitable combat plan, the three companies can also take joint action. In the event of shortage of materials, the three companies should provide support to each other as much as possible.

They then studied a specific set of joint operations details.

After several months of hard work, Taohua Mountain Village finally gained a firm foothold in southwestern Shandong.

After the Joint Xi meeting, Chief of Staff Liu and Wang Zhankui said goodbye and left. Before leaving, Wang Yuling, three Taohuashan guerrillas and a soldier selected by the Independent Battalion, followed them to Zhiyuan County and then to Wuhan.

Find Lin Yanni to learn radio communication technology.

Gao Jiu asked Wang Yuling to tell Jia Liu, who was recovering from his injuries in Wuhan, that he would not come back for the time being after healed, and followed Wang Yuling and others to learn radio communication technology.

Jiang Xiaomei and Yang Jiong also said goodbye and left.

Chief of Staff Liu came back from Lu County this time and brought back a large amount of supplies. Wang Jindong was also generous this time. This batch of supplies was worth at least 200,000 oceans. He was very thoughtful and knew that Taohua Mountain needed electricity, so he specially sent it to him.

A generator and some batteries for cars came.

They seized some Japanese weapons and ammunition from Lu County. They had their own weapons and ammunition supply system, and they did not need these weapons and ammunition. They left weapons for the exhibition of battle results and sent all the ammunition over. In addition, they also had them.

They also gave all the ammunition they brought out this time, including 46,000 Hanyang-made rifle bullets, and Gao Jiu also gave these rifle bullets to the Independent Battalion.

Before leaving, Gao Jiu went down the mountain to see Jiang Xiaomei and others leave.

On the road, Gao Jiu said: "In the future, the combat direction of the Independent Battalion should avoid the Ji-Zheng Highway as much as possible and avoid fighting with the large Japanese troops. At the same time, avoid major events with the Japanese and puppet troops in Pingyue County, especially the public security army, as much as possible.

A conflict of scale. As long as they do not provoke, try not to attack them actively.

The main direction of your combat is Yu County. You will fight more small battles to train the troops, seize materials and improve the family's assets. The main force will maintain its current scale. If the supply of materials is tight, the large army can be temporarily dispersed.

Enrich the district squads and even militia organizations. However, the main force must not be less than 200 people. If you have any difficulties, please send a telegram at any time. I will support you as much as possible."

Gao Jiu was nagging and reminding Jiang Xiaomei and Yang Jiong.

Yang Jiong was naturally very grateful, but Jiang Xiaomei was a little excited. Before leaving, she looked at Gao Jiu affectionately, her eyes full of reluctance and a hint of resentment.

In the coming days, Gao Jiu plans to temporarily stop fighting against the outside world and concentrate on doing internal affairs, especially to speed up the training of the special forces.

The battle in Wuhan is about to break out. After the war begins, there will be many difficult tasks waiting for the Taohua Mountain guerrillas to complete.

After breakfast that day, Gao Jiu, accompanied by Zhang Quan and Geng Hua, inspected the defensive positions around Taohua Mountain together with Liang Baoguo and Yue Lin.

With Taohua Cave as the center, Taohua Mountain Guerrillas established a three-layer defense system. The first floor was to set up six surveillance posts on the main mountain access passages in the entire Taohua Mountain area, each with two guard members.

They are only responsible for providing information about the Japanese and puppet troops entering the mountains.

On the second floor, defensive positions are set up on the four hills around Taohua Cave. These defensive positions are usually composed of 6 team members. After the battle begins, a large number of personnel will be added to defend.

The defensive position is usually equipped with 2 machine guns, a mortar, and a large amount of ammunition is stored.

Among the materials purchased from Germany this time, including some German anti-aircraft machine guns, he plans to deploy them on these defensive positions in the future.

The locations selected by these defensive positions can not only control the valley entering the hill where Taohua Cave is located, but also defend against the Japanese and puppet troops climbing behind the mountain. Gao Jiu and others are now inspecting these defensive positions set up on the hill.

Gao Jiu and others climbed a mountain south of Taohua Cave and saw the fortifications built on the top of the mountain. These fortifications were set up very cleverly, mainly relying on the top of the mountain itself and built in the grooves in the rock protruding parts.

, not only protects from wind and rain, but the most important thing is to resist the enemy's aerial bombardment.

Preventing air strikes is an important part of the defensive position defense function proposed by Gao Jiu.

Aircraft and aviation bombs are very precious. Apart from the main combat direction, the Japanese devils are reluctant to use them. Don’t look at the small Taohuashan guerrillas, one day they will annoy the Japanese devils. They may send planes to bomb.

The defensive position was reinforced with steel and cement, with enough space for the team members to rest, and a kitchen was also set up to open fire and cook on their own.

In addition, a large number of stones were piled up at the top of the mountain. These stones were collected from all over the mountain as training subjects when the special forces team was training to climb the mountain. To deal with the attacking mountain

Sometimes the enemy is better than guns and cannons.

Not only that, some simple fortifications were also built on the top of the mountain. These fortifications were usually left unattended. After the battle started, they would be used according to the direction of the enemy attacking the mountain.

These fortifications were designed by Liang Baoguo and Yue Lin. After Gao Jiu's inspection, they were commended.

The third layer of defense system is the hill where Taohua Cave is located and the fortifications itself. The terrain here is really too favorable and there is no need to spend effort to build it. It is just a simple transformation that allows the guerrillas who use these terrains to

It's more comfortable to use.

With these three levels of defense system and the powerful firepower of Taohua Mountain, Gao Jiu was confident that even if the enemy came to a gang, there was no need to worry about not being able to defend it. The worst result was that all the surrounding defensive positions were lost, and finally retreating to Taohua Cave.

As long as there is enough food and supplies inside, it is impossible for the Japanese army to attack.

On the way down the mountain, Geng Hua said: "Jiu Ye, after these defensive positions are improved, the guards are not in enough staff. Do you think you will expand it?"

Zhang Quan also said: "I think what Geng Hua said makes sense. The guards have too few staff, with a total of 50 people. If they enter the defensive position, there will be no one at home to stand guard at the station. Now we

The food and military pay in the mountain village are sufficient, so please recruit some more.”

Gao Jiu felt that what they said made sense. There were few people in the parody, and the special forces members sometimes needed to participate in the construction of the parody, which affected the training time. Some special forces members were injured and killed in this war, and there was a lack of manpower to supplement them.

.If the large-scale guard force can be maintained, it can perform various duties in the copycat to ensure that the special forces are concentrated in training. At the same time, once there are casualties in the special forces, personnel can be selected from the guard for replenishment.

Gao Jiu said: "You are right, so let's recruit some more. I think it will expand to 120 people. The second in command, you will be responsible for this matter."

"That's great!" Zhang Quan and others were very happy, especially Geng Hua. His daily life was very difficult. In addition to standing guard normally, he also had to send people to escort the purchasing staff out of the mountain. He often came to ask for tolerances in various places.

He didn't have that many people at all. From now on, his guard team suddenly had 120 people, and he, the captain, would be much more majestic.

After returning to Taohua Cave, Zhang Quan and Geng Hua came to find Feng Xiucai, asking for some of the oceans and sending people out to recruit soldiers.
