I am an artillery soldier

Chapter 424

"Did the devils retreat?" In the small mountain depression, the soldiers observing the devil's troops looked puzzled.

The soldiers couldn't believe their eyes, what happened to these devils?After the reinforcements came, shouldn't they find the traces of Liu Gen and others' evacuation, and then keep chasing after them?Why are these devils retreating now?

"The devils are really retreating! Damn, what the hell are these devils doing?" The soldier next to him was also full of doubts, not understanding why these little devils would retreat so easily.

With so many devils dying on the booby-trapped mines arranged by Liu Gen and others, under such circumstances, the devil troops would choose to retreat?This is not the devil's behavior style at all. The devil's troops have always had the character of retribution after being attacked.What now?The devil army suffered losses here, and they were provoked by Liu Gen and others, so they would leave easily?

Under the watchful eyes of the soldiers, the retreat of the devil troops did not stop, and they quickly left the area.

It's just that before leaving this area, the devil concentrated all the artillery there, and bombarded the area where the artillery school is located.Due to the many booby-trapped mines laid by Liu Gen and others here, the Devils cannot continue to search in the Artillery School with peace of mind. Even if the Devils want to leave now, they must destroy the Artillery School!

Otherwise, after these devil troops came here, there was no change here, and the Eighth Route Army troops could still use it when they returned here.

Even though it would consume a lot of shells to bombard this area, these devils knew very well that with the current situation of the troops of the Eighth Route Army, it was impossible to actively attack them.What's more, even if some of the shells are consumed, these devils believe that their combat effectiveness is sufficient to deal with the Eighth Route Army troops who dare to attack.

When the devils launched a covering bombardment, the soldiers of the devils who had been paying attention quickly hid. They hid behind the stones and waited for the end of the devils shelling.

After the devil's shelling was over, the soldiers could only see the backs of the devil's troops leaving. Soon, these devil's troops disappeared from their sight, as if the devil's troops had really left.

The soldiers looked at all this and felt a little strange. Even if the devil army wanted to leave here, it shouldn't be so fast. Is there any conspiracy in this devil army?

Soon, the soldiers dispersed, and each chose a direction to move towards the retreating army of devils again. They needed to determine what was going on with the army of devils.In other words, whether the withdrawal of the devil troops is a trap, these are the soldiers need to figure out.

As scouts, what the soldiers need to do is to know enough information about the devil's army. Only in this way can the safety of Liu Gen and others be guaranteed.After all, the Artillery School, which has just been established, cannot withstand any damage. If there is any damage, it will be a great loss to the Artillery School.

Time passed, and two hours later, the soldiers confirmed that the devil army was about to withdraw, which made the soldiers realize that there must be something wrong with the devil army, otherwise it would be impossible for the devil to leave so easily .

After realizing this, the soldiers quickly discovered the abnormality of the Devils' troops. Before the last explosion sounded, the Devils' troops had no intention of evacuating the area at all.On the contrary, from the performance of the devil army, it can be seen that the devil army seems to want to dig three feet in this area and find the Eighth Route Army troops.

But after the explosion sounded, there was an obvious change in the devil's army. The devils who were searching in the artillery school stopped searching and all gathered together, with a look of panic on their faces.

The soldiers didn't notice this before, but after analyzing the devil's evacuation troops, they realized that the last explosion must have killed an important person in the devil's army, otherwise the devil's army would never have left.

"You continue to observe the devil's movements here, and be vigilant."

"I'll go after Instructor Liu and the others, and tell Instructor Liu our guess to make them happy too," said Wang Dafu, the squad leader of the scouts.

The soldiers naturally didn't have any objections, maybe they would have a little credit for killing the important figures of the devils this time.The soldiers stared at the devil in sight, not letting go of every movement of the devil, and at the same time kept recording all the devil's weapons they observed.The soldiers were very focused, even if Wang Dafu, the squad leader, left, they didn't pay attention.

……

To the northeast of Huangya Cave, in the depths of Siding Mountain, Liu Gen and others are constantly cleaning up the surrounding environment, cutting down branches to build simple houses.

Under Liu Gen's careful command, the soldiers and students had a clear division of labor, and the efficiency of building houses was very high.In less than three hours, several simple houses were built.Of course, considering that it is spring now and the night is not very cold, the houses built by Liu Gen and others are quite simple, with almost only one roof, which can be regarded as sheds.

However, even though these houses are very simple, Liu Gen and others are still very satisfied. With this thing, at least they don't have to worry about resting at night.

Soldiers in the cooking class were busy preparing dinner and had traveled all day. Everyone was quite tired, but even so, no one complained that they were tired. Everyone was gritting their teeth and persevering.

At this time, Liu Gen, the acting principal of the Artillery School, kept swinging his machete towards the trees. In order to build enough houses before night fell, he also needed to participate in this somewhat difficult 'battle'.

When Wang Dafu found Liu Gen, he couldn't believe his eyes. What appeared in front of him was an extremely embarrassed soldier.Wang Dafu could see that there were quite a few holes in Liu Gen's clothes, which were made by hanging from branches. Liu Gen had nothing to do about it. Clothes were like this. He couldn't give up cutting trees just because of this. .

"Are you sure that the devil's army has retreated? If you really follow your guess, you comrades should have made great contributions this time." Liu Gen said seriously.

If a brigade of devils can be affected, it is very likely that there is a problem with the captain of the devil infantry brigade, and only in this way can the devils in the entire infantry brigade be affected.And if the captain of the devil's infantry brigade was killed by a landmine, it would undoubtedly greatly encourage the fighting of the various units of the Eighth Route Army, so that the soldiers could still persevere in the arduous struggle against the devil!

"I can be sure that I have led the soldiers of the reconnaissance squad to carefully observe the movement of the devils' troops. They have been retreating all the time and have not divided their troops." Wang Dafu said affirmatively.
