The blood of the Anti-Japanese War stained the mountains and rivers

Fortunately, most of the grassroots officers in this era were promoted from the top soldiers, and they can endure hardships and stand hard work, so there are not many complaints.

"Report!" Before Yang Ling finished his meal, guards rushed in.

Seeing the anxious look on the guard's face, Yang Ling also put down the bowl and chopsticks: "What's going on?"

"Sir, Battalion Commander Wu asked me to report that the brother who was sent to Liu Gezhuang has returned from a serious injury and is now in the medical team. I want you to go there as soon as possible. There is an important situation."

When Yang Ling heard that a brother was seriously injured, he also hurriedly grabbed his half-worn woolen coat and put it on, and went out as he spoke, followed by several guards.

The medical team of the third guerrilla detachment has now been expanded, and there are more than 30 medical staff. They are placed in an empty landlord compound in the city.

Seeing Yang Ling approaching from a distance, the brothers in charge of the security work of the medical team hurriedly stood up and saluted. Yang Ling stepped into the compound of the medical team without thinking about returning the salute.

A lot of washed gauze was drying on the bamboo poles in the yard, and the wounded brothers were chatting and laughing in groups, and from time to time, the wailing of the seriously wounded came from the rooms on both sides.

Under the leadership of that brother, Yang Ling went straight along the corridor to the innermost room. Along the way, the wounded soldiers saluted and said hello one after another. They didn't know what happened when Yang Ling came here suddenly.

"Sir." Second Battalion Commander Wu Changqing had already arrived one step ahead. When he saw Yang Ling approaching, he hurried up to greet him.

Yang Ling pulled the solemn Wu Changqing to the side of the pillar and asked, "What's going on?"

Wu Changqing said a little angrily: "The brothers in our class were ordered to go to the countryside to contact all kinds of armed forces. They were detained by the members of the Small Sword Society on the territory of the Small Sword Society. They sent back a message that they were dying and were being rescued inside."

When Yang Ling heard that his brother had been detained, a fierce murderous look flashed across his face. He dared to break ground on Tai Sui's head. He simply didn't want to live.

Yang Ling asked in a deep voice, "What's the message for us?"

"The small knife will let us redeem people, one hundred thousand oceans, if they are not delivered tomorrow morning, they will all be killed." Wu Changqing said with righteous indignation.

"Damn it, doesn't Xiaodao know our identities?" Yang Ling couldn't help but swear when he heard that Xiaodao had made such a condition.

"I asked just now, and they said they had disclosed our identities, but Xiao Daohui said, no matter who we are, since we have broken into their territory, we must either redeem them with money or stay with our lives."

"It's the wrong way!" Yang Ling was so angry that he didn't expect Xiaodao to be so arrogant.

It would be great if they could be so tough when facing the little devil, but it's a pity that they aimed their knives at their own anti-Japanese team.

"How many people will Xiaodao have?" Yang Ling quickly calmed himself down, and turned to ask Wu Changqing.

Wu Changqing replied: "The 20-plus villages in that area are all controlled by the Small Sword Society, and there are more than 1000 people who can fight."

"And they also have an unclear connection with the nearby Red Gun Association. The Red Gun Association also rejected our invitation to join the Anti-Japanese Federation this time."

Yang Ling didn't expect that there would be an organization that dared to fight against them. After all, their guerrillas were also a unit under the Military Commission, and fighting against them was almost the same as fighting against the Military Commission.

"Let's put aside the matter of the Red Gun Society. You go and gather your people now, and we'll save them." Yang Ling is most worried about the safety of the brothers in that class.

"Yes!" Wu Changqing also knew that time is money, if it is too late, the brothers in that class will die.

Just as Wu Changqing left in a hurry to assemble the troops, a blood-stained doctor came out of the room.

Several doctors in the medical team were hired by Yang Ling from Lianyungang at a high price, making up for the embarrassment of their detachment's lack of doctors.

"Doctor Lin, how's the situation?" Seeing the doctor coming out, Yang Ling hurried forward to ask.

Doctor Lin didn't expect Yang Ling to come over in person. After a moment of surprise, he shook his head helplessly: "Mr. Yang, this brother has lost a lot of blood, so I'm sorry I can't do anything..."

At this time, two medical staff carried out a brother covered in blood. Seeing that the brother was dripping with blood and there was not a piece of good meat on his body, Yang Ling couldn't help but burst into anger.

"Doctor Lin, you have worked hard."

As Yang Ling said, he waved his hand and asked the guards behind him to pick up the deceased brother from the medical staff, and then walked away from the medical team with a dark face.

Yang Ling didn't know why Xiaodao would be so cruel to his brother, but now he didn't need to ask why, now he just needed to pay blood.

His brother didn't die on the battlefield of fighting the devils, but died at the hands of the Chinese. Yang Ling couldn't bear the anger!

Chapter 882 Let's save our brothers!

A guerrilla battalion of more than 600 people was soon ready to go. The [-]-style rifle bayonets on the shoulders were all shining coldly, and twenty light machine guns of various types showed hideous muzzles.

The machine gun company directly under the battalion is equipped with two 70mm 7.7-type infantry guns. The cold barrels are pointing obliquely at the lead gray sky. Two 90mm heavy machine guns and two [-]mm mortars are neatly placed in front of the queue. front.

Yang Ling and the others had several bloody battles with the little devil. Although the victory was a fluke, they also captured a lot, not only the whole team was equipped with Japanese rifles.

At the same time, the firepower configuration of the two main guerrilla battalions under the detachment has been greatly enhanced. After reorganization and adjustment, each of the three infantry companies belonging to the battalion is equipped with at least six light machine guns and several 50mm guns. Grenadier fire support team.

In addition to the battalion infantry company, the newly formed battalion machine gun company is also equipped with infantry artillery, mortars and heavy machine guns. Although the number is not large, compared with other guerrillas, its firepower has been improved by more than one grade.

Now the two main guerrilla battalions under Yang Ling's command have greatly improved both in terms of firepower and the military quality of the soldiers. Although they have not been formed for a long time and seem a little immature, they have the demeanor of a brave army.

A battalion led by blacksmiths was responsible for maintaining order and patrolling in Huaiyin City to prevent enemy agents from sabotaging, while Wu Changqing's second battalion was training outside the city.

After receiving the order for emergency assembly, in just a few minutes, the officers and soldiers who were still on the training ground just now had assembled in full gear.

Seeing that it was getting dark, many officers and soldiers couldn't understand such an emergency gathering now, and turned their attention to their respective officers.

But they found that their platoon leader and company commander were also in a daze, and they also looked at the battalion commander Wu Changqing who stood in front with a dark face and said nothing.

Wu Changqing is indeed not in a good mood right now, the brothers detained by the Knife Society are members of their battalion.

He was originally ordered by Yang Ling to go to nearby counties and villages to contact the local anti-Japanese armed forces, and then came to Huaiyin to discuss the establishment of the Anti-Japanese Federation, to break down the barriers between them, and cooperate in the war of resistance.

Most of the brothers sent out have already returned to the team to start training one after another, and the anti-Japanese armed forces Yang Ling who contacted him also made their own arrangements.

But there is no news about those who are a little farther away, but now the news comes back that his brother has been detained, and he has to be redeemed with money.

The so-called daring to break ground on the head of Tai Sui requires a price to be paid. If you don't participate in the Subei Anti-Japanese Federation, you won't participate. Yang Ling didn't force them, as long as they sincerely fight against Japan.

But now the Small Knife Society not only refused to join the Anti-Japanese Federation to cooperate in the anti-Japanese war, but also detained their brothers for ransom, and even played kidnapping in broad daylight. This was something Yang Ling could not tolerate.

"What's wrong with our officer Wu?"

Seeing Wu Changqing standing silently in front of the team with a dark face, someone in the team gently pushed the brother next to him and asked in a low voice.

The brother who was asked also had a blank face: "I don't know, it should be another war."

"But haven't all the devils and puppet troops in the vicinity been wiped out?"

......

Hundreds of brothers with guns and live ammunition stood in the cold wind, and they all speculated about what happened.

Soon, there was a slight vibration on the ground, and there was the sound of horseshoes in the distance.

The brothers of the second battalion all turned their heads to look, and saw more than a dozen tall horses sweeping the smoke and dust, and the leader was their supreme commander, Yang Ling.

Yang Ling and the others seized these oriental horses from the devil's communication soldiers, some of them were equipped with brothers in the communication company, and the rest were left in Yang Ling's guard platoon.
