Lu Peng observed for a while and saw that there were overgrown grass all around. He couldn't help but frowned. Considering that the Japanese army would soon find him, he simply hid in the ruins of a nearby thatched hut and waited patiently.

Sure enough, after a while, several searchlights swept over, illuminating the area.

"Bang!" Suddenly, the searchlight went out, and a bullet flew over, hitting the soldier at the end of the Japanese army. His blood spattered five steps and he fell to the ground.

The Japanese troops immediately went into a panic. They all took out their bayonets and roared to the sky.

"Baga!" There was a roar in the middle of the team, and immediately a man came out with a gun. He looked around cautiously, roughly guessing that there was an enemy hiding nearby, and pulled the trigger without ceremony.

"Da da da!" There was loud gunfire in the Japanese army, and people kept falling down. Many people were hit by stray bullets, screaming and wailing.

Lu Peng was secretly happy. He jumped out in the chaos, sneered, raised his gun and fired two shots.

"Bang! Bang!" After two explosions, the bullet hit the target accurately.

"Pfft!"

Blood spurted out, and the person who was shot covered his chest and fell to the ground in disbelief.

"Bhagaya Road!"

The remaining Japanese soldiers were furious, staring at Lu Peng with their eyes wide open in anger, and raised their guns to shoot.

Lu Peng did not dodge, but ran straight up to meet the bullets. He knocked down one person with a stick and then shot another Japanese soldier to death.

The remaining Japanese soldiers were so scared that they fought back even though they knew they would die, trying to consume Lu Peng's physical strength and buy time to retreat. Unexpectedly, Lu Peng had already seen through their ideas and nimbly dodged the bullets while aiming at a Japanese soldier. shoulder, pulled the trigger mercilessly, and killed him.

After a brief confrontation, the Japanese soldiers lost all their fighting spirit, dropped their guns and fled.

"Chase!" Lu Peng warned, leading his team members to pursue and fight fiercely, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Xu Hongru hadn't walked long when he saw Lu Peng and the others chasing after him. For some unknown reason, he stood still and watched Lu Peng and the others leave.

Not long after, the Japanese army emerged from the depths of the woods in embarrassment. The leading sergeant looked at Xu Hongru with an annoyed look on his face and asked: "Xu Sang, why didn't you let us kill him just now?"

"What do you know!" Xu Hongru scolded him with a straight face, then put on a smiling face and said flatteringly: "Brother Lu is the nobleman I invited to save people. If you hurt him, what will I give to the Commander? A business trip?"

"Humph, this is really unreasonable. We are acting under orders, and even if we have to punish him, he will not be a prisoner." The sergeant muttered unconvincedly, and his tone softened a lot.

"Of course I know this. It's just that this time it was because I was good at making opinions that I got Brother Lu into trouble. He was invited by me to help. You must not neglect it, otherwise I will take you for granted." Xu Hongru was righteous. Said rhetorically.

"Of course, don't worry Xu Sang, I promise to arrange everything for him." The sergeant nodded and commanded the troops to gather the remaining Japanese troops and quickly disappeared into the dark night.

Xu Hongru breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a while, and dialed Yan Tieshan's phone number.

The call was quickly connected, and Yan Tieshan asked about the situation urgently. Xu Hongru gave a brief introduction and said: "Lu Peng did not lie to me. The Japanese did come to Chu County, but they have already left. According to my judgment, this group The mission of the Japanese army should be to escort a batch of strategic materials back to Chu County."

"What!?" Yan Tieshan was shocked and asked suspiciously: "Brother Xu, do you have any basis for what you said?"

Xu Hongru did not sell out and continued: "I dare not speculate on this, but the quality of this group of Japanese soldiers is very high. If they are just ordinary Japanese soldiers, they may not be enough to complete the escort mission."

"It makes sense, let's do this. You are on standby in Chu County. Once this is true, contact me immediately. No matter what, this batch of materials must be prevented from being transported into Chu County!" Yan Tieshan said decisively, her tone was firm, and she was obviously moved. Anger.

"I will, but you can't sit still and wait for death. You have to find a way to delay the Japanese army and buy me time. As long as I deal with them, everything will be easy." Xu Hongru said.

"Well, I know how to do it." Yan Tieshan responded.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Hongru sighed secretly, feeling the pressure doubled.

Although Yan Tieshan has promised to do his best to cooperate with Lu Peng's operation, everyone knows that it is not easy to intercept this batch of strategic materials.

More importantly, now that the Nationalist Government has taken control of Nanchang, once the Japanese troops from Nanjing arrive in Chu County, Lu Peng, no matter how strong he is, will be unable to fight alone.

But after thinking about it, Xu Hongru felt relieved and secretly warned himself not to worry unfoundedly. Since he chose to trust Lu Peng, he should fully cooperate.

After the matter here was settled, Lu Peng did not stop any longer. He led his team members around to the front and continued to explore the mountain. Soon they encountered a group of patrolling Japanese soldiers. Without saying a word, they struck first and beat the enemy until they fled.

This time Lu Peng learned the lesson, specializing in picking soft persimmons and leaving a corpse almost every ten meters. He did not forget to lay trip mines along the way, and killed them all the way to the top of the mountain like a broken bamboo.

"Report!"

"speak!"

"The battalion commander and the others are missing. We searched the entire mountain top. Apart from their belongings, we didn't find the battalion commander or the others. We didn't even find a body. I'm worried..."

"Trash, trash, a bunch of losers!" The Japs next to the radio got angry and roared, "Where are their bodies? Have they been found?"

"Found them, we searched them, and they were indeed sacrificed." The Japanese replied, and hung up the phone with a complicated expression.

"Nani?!" The devil next to the radio was completely dumbfounded. It took him a long time to realize what he was doing, and he murmured to himself with a sad look on his face, "Impossible, how could this happen?"

When Lu Peng heard these words, he secretly cursed the Japanese for being cunning. He guessed that the Japanese army would definitely try to destroy all traces. After thinking about it, he shouted towards the mountainside: "Little Tiger, come here!"

"Tuanzuo!" Xiaohu ran over excitedly.

"Go, use the telescope to observe the movements of the Japanese army. If I am not wrong, the Japs will definitely try to destroy the clues. You must be extra careful and don't let the Japs escape." Lu Peng warned, worried. One sentence.

"Hehe, don't worry about this. As long as the little devil dares to show his head, I guarantee that they will not be able to escape!" Xiaohu proudly puffed up his chest and promised confidently.

"Be careful!" Lu Peng warned, lying down patiently in the grass, waiting quietly for the Japanese troops to show up.

Sure enough, the Japanese army lived up to Lu Peng's expectations. In less than five minutes, several black figures suddenly appeared on the ridge and moved silently down the mountain.

Lu Peng frowned and took a closer look. They turned out to be three Japanese soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms and steel helmets.

"Baga, what's going on? Why is there no one around here?!" the Japanese soldier muttered, looking around, and finally his eyes fell on where Lu Peng was hiding. After hesitating for a moment, he cautiously climbed up to Lu Peng, alert. shouted: "Who are you?!"

"Who are you?" Lu Peng asked coldly, without taking action rashly.

The Japanese soldier was obviously taken aback. He stared at Lu Peng suspiciously, hesitated for a few seconds, and whispered: "It's dangerous here. I advise you to get out of here!"

"Haha!" Lu Peng smiled and said contemptuously: "So, you are here to find me?"

"Yo Xi!" The Japanese soldiers were overjoyed, and immediately reacted and roared: "You are cheating, how dare you get through, you are dead, you are dead..."

"Snapped!"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Peng smashed the Jaap soldier's head with the butt of his rifle, dragged him to the ground, and at the same time signaled Zhou Weiguo and the others to take cover, and ran away.

The remaining two Japs were frightened. They didn't expect Lu Peng's shooting skills to be so accurate and his reaction speed was so fast. They took out grenades and threw them out without caring about anything else.

"Boom!"

The explosion resounded through the sky, and Lu Peng was so shocked that his eardrums buzzed. He was about to use the smoke to cover his retreat, but found that the Japanese were already chasing him. He hurriedly changed his strategy and hid behind a rock. He aimed at a Japanese soldier and took it down without hesitation. trigger.

"boom!"

The Japanese soldier screamed and fell to the ground.

Another Japanese soldier reacted quickly and rushed toward Lu Peng with a bayonet in his hand, trying to end Lu Peng's life with the weapon in his hand. Unfortunately, it was a step too late. As soon as he took a step, a bullet flew towards him and hit him between the eyebrows. Falling on his back.

Lu Peng took a deep breath, struck while the iron was hot, picked up a grenade from the ground, pulled the bolt and loaded the grenade, aimed forward and threw it.

"Pfft!"

The grenade drew an arc and accurately fell into the dense forest ahead. There was a loud noise, the explosion produced a violent flame, and a thick smoke rose instantly.

Because the distance was too close, the shock wave caused by the explosion of the shell directly overturned several Japanese soldiers.

"Ha ha!"

Seeing the embarrassment of the Japanese army, Lu Peng couldn't help laughing wildly. At this moment, several people walked out of the woods not far away, holding rifles, and it was Yang Xiuling and her party.

"Captain!"

Everyone cheered and couldn't wait to gather around, talking non-stop.

Lu Peng looked around and found that Wang Huzi and others suffered heavy casualties, with only a dozen or so people left. He immediately became furious, "What do you do for food?"

Yang Xiuling's face was full of shame and she said bitterly: "Captain, I don't blame them. It was my command error. If I had known that the little devil was so powerful, I would have sent more people."

"You are not cruel enough!" Lu Peng snorted coldly.

"The leader taught you the right lesson, but we didn't gain anything at all. We captured dozens of prisoners!" Wu Yurou added.

"Oh?!" Lu Peng was slightly startled. He turned around and looked over. Sure enough, he saw many people being held together. Judging from the clothes, they should be bandits or puppet soldiers. They looked like they were defeated soldiers who had just surrendered to the Japanese army.

Wang Huzi walked up to Qianhui and reported: "According to the interrogation, these guys were ordered by their superiors to lurk here to ambush us. But they found out that we were the Eighth Route Army, so they turned against us and almost cheated us!"

"Hmph!" Lu Peng snorted coldly and said, "Anyway, they have accomplished a great service. Let's end this matter here. Tell the brothers to rest for a while and start reconnaissance immediately."

"yes!"

Wang Huzi and others were overjoyed and followed the order.

Lu Peng stood there waiting, and suddenly saw a familiar figure flashing behind a big tree not far away. When he looked closely, he saw that it was Tian Xiaoxi.

Seeing Tian Xiaoxi peeking out her head furtively, as if looking for something, Lu Peng was slightly startled, thinking that he had discovered the Japanese army when he met her just now, and it was clear that Tian Xiaoxi must be worried about him, and there were no traces of battle at the scene. Guessing that Tian Xiaoxi might be injured, he waved to Tian Xiaoxi.

"Master!" Tian Xiaoxi was so happy when she saw Lu Peng that she ran away.

"Wait a minute!" Lu Peng shouted, and rushed over quickly. While stopping Tian Xiaoxi, he said, "I still have a task for you to do."

Although Tian Xiaoxi was puzzled, he did not resist and followed Lu Peng back to the camp honestly.

After returning, Lu Peng asked Sun Siyi to treat Tian Xiaoxi's wounds while he took out a cigarette and started smoking.

"Master, where are you?" Tian Xiaoxi asked about the situation while taking off his clothes to check the wound.

Lu Peng briefly introduced the situation and asked: "What's going on? Why don't you join the main force?"

"I see that everyone is very tired. I don't want to drag everyone down, so I just want to go over alone to see the situation. Besides, you also have to be on guard against the little devils, so..." Tian Xiaoxi lowered his head and said aggrievedly.

"Silly girl, I really can't do anything to you!" Lu Peng sighed. After knowing Tian Xiaoxi for so long, this was the first time he saw her acting coquettishly. He softened and comforted: "Our mission this time is quite special and must be completed as soon as possible. You haven't recovered yet, so if you don't want to get involved, I will never force you to do so. You can take good care of your injuries, and after you recover from your injuries, I will personally take you back to the county."

"Thank you, master, I'm fine!" Tian Xiaoxi waved her hands hurriedly with a determined expression.

"Okay, remember, don't be brave, I will leave a medical soldier to protect you." Lu Peng warned, and then gave an uneasy order, "You change the dressing first, I still have something to do." After saying that, he turned around leave.

"Well, okay, I will listen to the master!" Tian Xiaoxi nodded obediently, with a trace of gratitude flashing in his eyes.

Back in the team, Yang Xiuling came over and said worriedly: "Old lump, I think Miss Xiaoxi is very good, why are you always so cold to her? If you really have a chance, then get engaged quickly! "

"What are you worrying about? I have nothing to do with her, so don't talk nonsense!"

Lu Peng couldn't laugh or cry.

"You don't understand that girls, especially beauties like Miss Xiaoxi, are more likely to make men make mistakes." Yang Xiuling said seriously.

Lu Peng didn't bother to explain, so he changed the subject and said, "Now that our position has been exposed, we must find a way to evacuate as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to evacuate once the Japanese are targeting us."

"This is a problem." Xu Xiaodong agreed.

Lu Peng pondered, thinking that since the Japanese knew of their existence, they would definitely continue searching. In this case, the terrain advantage must be used to stop the Japanese. However, considering that the Japanese had tanks, fighting head-on would undoubtedly be a dead end, and they would have to find another way.

After careful consideration, Lu Peng decided to take the risk and suggested: "Our current equipment is not good enough, so we can only attack proactively, but this will consume a lot of physical strength, so we need a scapegoat. In any case, our goal this time is to rescue the hostages.
