Chapter 2086 Matchmaking Is Not Easy!

"Why are our people walking so slowly?" Ma Xiaoliang's head was like a rattle, looking in one direction for a while, and then in another direction. In one direction were people from their division, and in the other direction were Japanese puppet troops.

Ma Xiaoliang was one of the lookouts left by Shang Zhenying at this end. He chose a good location, which happened to be a bend in the road, and this place was a hilly terrain. The sight of the enemy and us on the road was blocked by the terrain, and we really couldn't find each other for a while, even if there were scouts.

Qian Chuan'er had already told Ma Xiaoliang his intention. Of course, he hoped that their division would fight with the Japanese army first. This can't be said to be a fisherman's profit when the snipe and the clam fight. This is called a fight between the enemy and us, so that they can stab the Japanese army in the back.

It's just that his idea is good, but the speed of their division's people is not fast. If they continue to walk like this, the Japanese puppet troops will pass the ambush point of their battalion, and the battle will be difficult to fight.

"Hey, that's not right! There are no scouts in front of our division, this is not right!" Ma Xiaoliang made a new discovery.

On the other hand, the Japanese and puppet troops not only had scouts, but also search teams on both wings of the advancing direction.

"Maybe they thought that our battalion was behind them and didn't take it seriously?" Qian Chuan'er guessed.

"That shouldn't be right, how can they fight like this? I don't know which regiment it is." Ma Xiaoliang was very angry.

But Qian Chuan'er just said "hmm" and then looked at the relative positions of the enemy and us. He actually liked that his division's main force did not send scouts to the front.

If both sides sent scouts, the Japanese and puppet troops would not run away once the scouts engaged in the battle, but their division might run away first.

Of course, running away is not shameful. Now, isn't it said that their division is also fighting a guerrilla war, but their battalion is fighting a guerrilla war, and other troops are really just guerrilla warfare, not fighting.

The battlefield is always changing. Qian Chuan'er believes that even Wang Laomao did not expect that the battle situation would appear in such a dramatic scene.

Those who wanted to fight did not encounter the Japanese army, while those who did not want to fight did.

So what can we do if we hide for a while? Look at the three regiments. Which one suffered as heavy casualties as their battalion?

Qian Chuan'er did not intend to lead the Japanese army to the main force of the division.

First, he might not be able to lead the Japanese army there and then lose his life. Second, even if he succeeded in leading the Japanese army, he did not know what the attitude of the division chief of staff Li Xiang would be. No matter which commander of the three regiments was, they would not be happy with him.

I can't care so much. Let's see how it develops next!

But then, as the enemy and us approached, Qian Chuan'er suddenly shouted in a low voice: "Oh no, the Japanese found our people!"

"What?" Ma Xiaoliang asked, and he also raised his telescope to look at the Japanese side. Sure enough, he saw that the scouts in front of the Japanese army had already laid down, and some Japanese soldiers hid behind several trees on the roadside under the cover of the terrain.

The mountain road was winding, but there were always places where the terrain was low and the road was exposed. It must be that the Japanese scouts found their main force.

Ma Xiaoliang raised the telescope and looked again. Although there were trees blocking the view, he could still see the Japanese army waving flags through the gaps in the trees. It must be to notify the Japanese army behind.

Ma Xiaoliang turned his head to look at his own side. At this time, he saw that some people on his side, that is, the main force of the division, had already quickly left the brigade. It was estimated that at this time, the main force of the division had not encountered their battalion, so they sent out the scouts.

"Damn it." Ma Xiaoliang couldn't help but curse, and he didn't know who he was scolding.

Now he couldn't do anything except lookout, so he looked at Qian Chuan'er beside him, and then he noticed that Qian Chuan'er had put down the telescope and was looking at the Japanese army.

When he looked over again, he saw that the Japanese army had actually divided its troops!

There was no doubt that the Japanese army had received the news from the scouts in front and was preparing for battle!

He saw that the Japanese and puppet troops were divided into two parts, one on the road, and the other took a shortcut through the snow and ran behind him and Qian Chuan'er.

In this situation, the enemy and us are the two approximate right angles of the triangle, and the Japanese army ran on the oblique line of the triangle, and Qian Chuan'er and Ma Xiaoliang were at that right angle.

It seems that the Japanese army is planning to split up and attack when the main force of the division has not discovered them.

This made Ma Xiaoliang worried. The Japanese army's actions were of course not good for the main force of the division that had not yet discovered the enemy, but it was good for Shang Zhenying, because the two search teams of the Japanese army had also returned to their teams, so they would not discover their camp hidden on both sides of the road.

"What should we do?" Ma Xiaoliang was a little anxious.

It was not easy to make Ma Xiaoliang anxious, after all, the soldiers who could serve as lookouts were all veterans, with good eyesight and brains, and they had to be able to keep calm.

"Don't worry, our people are coming!" Qian Chuan'er was talking about the scouts sent by the main force of the division.

Different countermeasures should be taken according to the changes on the battlefield.

At first, Qian Chuan'er planned to let the main force of the division and the Japanese army collide directly, but then the Japanese army discovered the main force of the division first, so he had to fire a warning shot first even if he risked his life, he couldn't watch the Japanese army ambush the main force of the division.

Now he looked at both ends and found that he still had to give a warning first, because the platoon of scouts sent by the main force of the division was less than a hundred meters away from where he and Ma Xiaoliang were.

If they were allowed to keep going, not to mention the main force, this platoon would definitely be ambushed by the Japanese army that was about to move to the position!

The Japanese and puppet troops were now in large force, and it would only take a concentrated fire to kill a platoon of scouts!

"No, I have to inform our people!" Qian Chuan'er grabbed the signal flag used by Ma Xiaoliang, shrank his body and crawled into the gap between two trees, jumped up and waved it towards the scouts who were moving towards him.

"They saw it!" Ma Xiaoliang, who turned around with him, was holding a telescope, so he could see it clearly, and even the expressions of his companions in the Northeast Army could be seen clearly.

When Qian Chuan'er heard what Ma Xiaoliang said, he stopped jumping, and the two small flags were raised "swish" and "swish".

"They also raised the telescope!" Ma Xiaoliang said again.

In fact, even if Ma Xiaoliang didn't say it now, the scouts on the opposite side could see the signal given by Qian Chuan'er, and that was a flag!

Qian Chuan'er couldn't understand the complicated flag signals, but he knew some of the commonly used ones.

It didn't need to be too complicated. He just sent a few flag signals, and the scouts on the other side rushed to the side of the road.

There was a forest of trees, not too big or small, and at the same time, a man hid behind the tree and began to raise the flag.

At this time, the Japanese army fired gunshots. In the sound of gunshots, Qian Chuan'er saw a flag fall behind the tree he was looking at, and the man with the signal flag squatted down.

But then, Qian Chuan saw that the man could still move and had already fallen to the ground. It seemed that he was shot in the arm, which made Qian Chuan'er feel a little relieved.

But then something more anxious came. Ma Xiaoliang whispered: "Run, there is a small forest ahead, the Japanese are coming to us!"
