The middle section of Linzao Railway.

Due to the damage caused by the Hunter Squadron, this railway has not been open to traffic for more than ten days.

At this moment, in the direction approaching Lincheng, a train and two armored vehicles were parked on the railway.

Because the railway has been paralyzed, the little devils and puppet soldiers on the railway are in extreme boredom.

In addition, it was midnight, so except for the four or five supervisors, the rest of the Japanese and puppet troops were hiding in armored vehicles or trains to rest.

At the break of the railway, more than 100 Chinese people were busy. Under the guidance of the Japanese engineering troops, they repaired the railway tracks and roadbed, but the progress was very slow.

Only the section under construction on the entire railway has light, while the rest of the railway is completely dark.

The Hunter Squadron has been active on this railway line for more than ten days. They have never exposed their strength. Instead, they disguised themselves as Tubal guerrilla troops and launched some innocuous harassment against the Japanese troops from time to time.

Now, Chen Zhengyue led his brothers to lie down not far from the little devil, with dozens of pairs of wolf-like eyes staring at every move on the railway.

Chen Zhengyue had already received the news that Jiang Dong was leading a large force to head north, and he wanted to conduct a final reconnaissance of the situation to ensure nothing was missed.

"Captain, the brigade commander and the rest of the troops are already at the back, asking you to come over!"

A team member lowered his voice and said to Chen Zhengyue.

"So fast!" Chen Zhengyue was slightly surprised.

He glanced at the trains and armored vehicles on the railway again, retracted his head and said:

"Come on, take me there."

Although several thousand miners and prisoners of war were newly added to the Independent Brigade, the overall marching speed was not much slower than before.

The work in the mines is all heavy physical work, and people with poor physical fitness cannot hold on long after entering the mines. Now those who survive and join the Wanbei Independent Brigade are all people with excellent physical fitness.

These brothers were able to persevere in the day-to-day work in the mines, and a simple forced march naturally did not put much pressure on them.

Moreover, after resting for a day in Zaozhuang, everyone had two full meals and their physical strength had recovered a lot.

"Let the brothers take a rest, eat some solid food, and drink water!"

After arriving at the location of the Hunter Squadron, Jiang Dong said to Wu Zhan.

"yes!"

Jiang Dong just took a sip of water and asked someone to take him to find Chen Zhengyue.

"brigadier!"

Chen Zhengyue ran over with a smile, and felt very cordial when he saw Jiang Dong again.

"You kid!" Jiang Dong smiled and looked Chen Zhengyue up and down. This 20-year-old little hunter had grown into an independent brigade officer who could take charge of his own role.

"How's it going? The recent missions went well, right? Are the casualties among the brothers heavy?" Jiang Dong asked.

Chen Zhengyue shook his head, took off the rifle from his back and sat on the edge of Jiangdong.

"According to what you explained before, we only occasionally harass the little devils so that they can't repair the railway happily. There are almost no casualties. We all hope that the large troops will arrive as soon as possible."

Jiang Dong patted Chen Zhengyue's thickened shoulder,

"That's good. Now tell me what's going on ahead?"

"There is a train parked on the road ahead. It must be able to drive. It should be able to transport six to seven thousand people. There are also two armored vehicles and a dozen little devils and puppet troops."

Chen Zhengyue paused, "There used to be a Japanese team on the railway, but 2/3 were transferred this morning. The remaining ones are not a threat. In just 10 minutes, I can lead the brothers to resolve the battle quietly."

.”

"It seems that you are well prepared. Then don't delay. Get the train immediately and let the large troops leave by train."

"Yes!" Chen Zhengyue stood up and saluted.

"Be careful!" Jiang Dong nodded to him!

More than 20 Japanese and puppet soldiers were hiding in the car and sleeping soundly. They had no idea that death had quietly come to them.

Seizing a train was a task that Jiang Dong had assigned to the Hunter Squadron a long time ago. During this period, Chen Zhengyue led the team members to rehearse it many times, and everyone knew exactly what they wanted to do.

"Listen up, everyone should act as planned. Don't shoot unless absolutely necessary. Try to use a knife to resolve the fight."

Chen Zhengyue told the team members, "After the battle, clean up all the blood and corpses and leave no traces."

"yes!"

Everyone lowered their voices and accepted the order.

"action!"

Jiang Dong and Xie Chengrui watched the actions of the Hunter Squadron from a distance.

Seeing that the team members were all strong in skill and meticulous in their tactical movements, and quickly cleared away the Japanese and puppet troops standing guard outside, Xie Chengrui couldn't help but admire:

"Brigadier Commander, this unit you have personally trained has become a strong force. It will definitely play a big role on the battlefield in the future."

Jiang Dong was also quite satisfied with the scene in front of him, "Although the Hunter Squadron has not reached what I really want, I have to say that they have done a good job and are one of the few special forces in this era."

"Special Forces..." Xie Chengrui repeated several times in a low voice,

"Strange, really strange."

While the two were talking, the Hunter Squadron's actions did not stop.

"Captain, everything is settled here, only the supervisors are left!" Zhao Erniu said, pointing to the busy crowd in front.

"You take a few brothers to solve the problem, and I'll go check on the train situation."

"Um...what about the common people?"

Chen Zhengyue frowned and said, "Give them some food and let them hide in the mountains for a few days and come out again after a while."

"clear!"

.

"ah!"

Seeing that the four or five little devils around them suddenly had their necks wiped, the common people who were working let out a scream, and everyone looked at the sudden appearance of the figure in fear.

"Folks, we are from the Weishanhu detachment, specializing in fighting against imps and traitors. Don't be afraid, don't scream."

Zhao Erniu was worried that these people would be betrayed by the Japanese if they were caught, so he lied and claimed that he was from the Weishan Lake detachment.

When they heard that it was a team fighting Japanese invaders, the faces of the common people relaxed a lot.

"Seeing that you are working so hard here, we are here to rescue you. We will give you some food later. Don't go home for the time being. Hide in the nearby mountains for a few days. Otherwise, the little devils will capture you again.

Build the railway, and then no one will come to save you!"

His words were comforting and threatening, and the people nodded repeatedly.

Food and drinking water were quickly distributed, and the faces of the people showed both happiness and nervousness.

"Okay, now we have food and drink. You should leave as soon as possible. I don't know when the little devil will come back. It will definitely be a fierce battle. You will be in danger if you stay here."

Zhao Erniu pointed a direction to the people, which was opposite to the location of the main force of the Independence Brigade.

Moreover, he asked several brothers to follow the people until they were far away before notifying the larger army to come over.

"Brigadier, when did our team have so many people?"

Seeing figures emerging from the darkness, Chen Zhengyue asked in disbelief.

"We took in some prisoners of war and recruited some new soldiers. There are more people than when you left." Jiang Dongyun said calmly.

"Awesome!" Chen Zhengyue said two words.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and act as planned."

Xie Chengrui encountered a problem when organizing the troops to board the train.

The Hunter Squadron did not know that the Northern Anhui Independent Brigade had grown in strength. They stopped the train based on the standard of 7,000 people.

Now there are more than 10,000 troops, which is a full 1/3 more.

There were no other trains around to grab, and this was the only one the Independent Brigade could use. Jiangdong could only let the brothers squeeze in, trying to squeeze everyone in.

But in this way, the riding experience of the brothers becomes extremely poor.

They were originally stuffy carriages, but now each carriage is packed with people. It's almost like the Spring Festival travel period in later generations, where people can only squeeze in close to each other and step on each other's feet.

"call………"

Xie Chengrui and Wu Zhan were so busy that they finally got everyone into the train.

"Become a traitor again." Jiang Dong pulled Cui Hao and said,

"Remember how to be a puppet soldier, don't reveal your secret!"

All members of the Hunter Squadron also changed into Japanese army clothes. Jiang Dong asked Cui Hao and several team members to make the first armored vehicle and put himself on the second one.

Cui Hao's body was trembling slightly,

"Brigadier, there will definitely be a lot of Japanese interrogations ahead. I...I...I'm scared!"

"Afraid of getting upset." Jiang Dong pointed to his clothes, "Did you see that I am a captain and you are my lackey? If anyone doubts you, just ask them to come to me and I will deal with it."
