"What happened? The puppet troops faked a surrender?" Fei Jinyan, commander of the third company of the guard battalion, jumped up. In the afternoon, there was news that the enemy was extending fortifications in the north and was preparing to break out. Why did the fight start on our side?!

To be honest, when it was time to mobilize the Third Company of the Assault Battalion, he was the boss who was unwilling to do so. After all, he had a hundred and ten men pointing at him on a one- to two-kilometer front, so he didn't know what to do.

However, the analysis of the battalion instructor Li Qiang is also very reasonable: after all, the south is a secondary tactical direction. If one runs south, the Yellow River is not far away, and there is no way to escape; furthermore, running south means leaving the West Road battlefield.

It's getting further and further away, there's no need for that. Moreover, turning south to west is a mountainous area. Although there is a passage, it is not conducive to the movement of large troops. At least three or four thousand people can't pass through it in a swarm. In the end

There is also the latest information that makes everyone completely relax their vigilance: that is, the independent group will send troops to control the vicinity of Shilipo, which should be the final bottom line!

"Company Commander, there are too many enemies, we can't attack them!" Faced with several times of enemy attacks, the third company of the guards launched four or five charges in succession, but were all driven back. For a time, the troops were hit hard by several enemies.

The machine gun was so heavy that I couldn't even raise my head.

"What's going on? Why haven't reinforcements arrived yet?" Fei Jinyan tried his best to direct, looking anxiously to the north.

...

"Captain Hu, the fighting in the south is fierce. Could the puppet army break through to the south?" Guard Camp Meng Chao asked worriedly. There was only a third company left over there to perform the empty city strategy, and he felt unhappy.

ah!

"Hasn't it already started on the north side? We have to guard against the enemy's false shots!" Hu Dakang gathered four companies in the north of Zhuangzi. The other three sides, except the west side, were afraid of the enemy's influence on Xidao Town, so a whole special force team defended it.

Only one company was lost on the outer, east and south sides. In fact, what troubled Hu Dakang was the lack of troops. The troops directly under his command only had one regiment. If he wanted to besiege the two regiments of the Puppet Second Division, it was still too weak.

Otherwise, we would not have been taking deterrence measures of siege but not attack.

Jinsuo and Ernuo's deceptive tactics achieved unprecedented success. In less than an hour, more than a thousand remaining puppet troops in Xiaoguzhuang withdrew from the south. Gradually, gunfire stopped in the east, west and north, except for

There were also increasingly sparse gunshots in Dunan.

"Quick, send troops to reinforce the south!" Hu Dakang was now completely sure that the enemy had broken through the encirclement in the south and ran away. He rushed out of the temporary command post and shouted: "Rush directly from Zhuangzi to pursue us!"

Zhuangzi was already deserted. Except for a few puppet troops who were hiding and lagging behind, there were no traces of the enemy anywhere. The pursuing troops advanced quickly and soon saw the Third Company of Guards, which had suffered heavy casualties.

"There are about a thousand enemies, running south!" Fei Jinyan, the third company commander, was shot in the leg and reported with blood all over his body.

"Thank you for your hard work! Rescue the wounded quickly and have a good rest!" Hu Dakang ignored himself at the moment and comforted the wounded in the third company.

.............................

"Erbo, report the situation of the troops." After running three or four miles from Xiaoguzhuang, before entering the mountain pass, Feitianmao signaled to rest for ten minutes.

"The Eighth Route Army fought very tenaciously. With so few people, even if we all came out with our elite troops, we still took turns rushing forward. At least four to five hundred of our brothers were consumed." The second naughty man said with a smile: "The ones who broke out are probably the ones who broke out.

There are only 1,2300 people. Except for the guard companies of the two regiments, the other companies have suffered considerable losses."

"We can't control that much anymore. As long as most of the officers follow us out, we will be victorious!" Sitting on the grass smoking quietly, he patted his butt and stood up. "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. I call on my brothers to hold on.

When we reach Shilipo, we will rest again."

Facts have proved that Cao Shangfei's caution was not in vain. Under his urging, the remnants of the Second Puppet Division marched for more than an hour to the Shilipo exit of the passage. Here, the independent regiment only arranged for one company to be stationed.

Mainly facing the direction of the Shilipo stronghold, to prevent the Japanese inside from coming out for reinforcements. After receiving the warning from Xiao Guzhuang, the reinforcements sent by the independent regiment hurried all the way, but failed to arrive in time and were blown away by the grass.

, Feitianmao and the Japanese in the stronghold teamed up to break through the defense line, leaving more than a hundred corpses behind and fled into the Shilipo stronghold.

.....................

"What's the matter? The three of them look dejected!" Chen Long looked at Hu Dakang who rushed back overnight and said with a smile, "You've done a great job! Do you really want to eliminate two of my groups? You guys have too much appetite.

It’s big!”

"The main responsibility lies with me. It was my mistake in judgment that allowed the enemy to escape!" Hu Dakang took the initiative to take responsibility.

"Okay, you took in more than two thousand prisoners and eliminated nearly a thousand. The only ones who escaped were only a thousand puppet troops. What's more? It's a great victory! Don't look like your parents are dead.

Now, let’s take a good wash, let’s get some late-night snacks, and then go to bed early. As for summarizing the gains and losses of this battle, that’s for tomorrow. Do you think so?” Chen Long counted the accounts for them with his fingers.

, this is really what happened. With the strength of one regiment, it basically defeated the two regiments of the Puppet Second Division. It is really not easy!

"Tell the Independent Regiment that at least one battalion must be stationed in the direction of Shilipo. That is the corner we are most likely to ignore. We cannot let the enemy take advantage of the loophole and affect the war on the West Road." Chen Long smoked a cigarette and touched the sand table.

At the Shilipo stronghold, he turned to Meng Chao who was washing his face and said: "This time you three consecutive fights are not bad, give them a credit. Your guard battalion will stay in Xiaoguzhuang for now, seize the time to rest and be vigilant, so as to

Prevent the enemy from coming back."

"Captain, our losses are not big, we can definitely join the team -" Meng Chao didn't bother to wipe away the water and hurriedly called for battle.

"You're still young. More than 70 people were killed or injured in three consecutive companies. All the tips are wasted. Don't be brave and replenish your manpower. When you're ready, you can bring them in to fight the Japanese at any time!" Chen Long waved his hand to stop him.

"Here comes the noodles!" The cooking team made three large bowls of hot shredded pork noodles and brought them in. According to Chen Long's instructions, each person also added two poached eggs and a bowl of roasted knives.

"Dakang, actually if I were to command this battle, the outcome would definitely be different." Chen Long also ordered a bowl of hot noodle soup and drank it, chatting with the three of them, "Don't look at our small number of troops, but

The troops directly under the column, especially Long Er's assault battalion, have top-notch attack power. So, if I bite Cao Shangfei and Feitianmao, I won't have the patience to accompany them to watch the moon. Two days earlier

So we took action against them.”

"That's right, I just want to waste them some more. After all, these guys have long been out of food..." Hu Dakang stopped his chopsticks and continued to speak.

"Look, why are you so anxious? Hurry up and eat the noodles, they are almost cold! I just want to tell you, whichever way I fight is braver, but it is not the best strategy! At least the final effect will be far worse than today's result!"

Chen Long raised his hand to stop him, "We are on the same side now. Fighting is like doing business. Win or lose, profit or loss must be carefully calculated. I won't say anything else. I'll just say that we surrendered here.

With more than 2,000 guns, we can't defeat them just by beating them. Moreover, are the puppet troops really made of clay? If you hit him, can he not fight to the death? If we really attack by force, our losses will definitely be far higher than now.

of."

"You will comfort me!" Hu Dakang shook his head with a wry smile, and said sincerely to Chen Long: "Actually, I didn't learn these things from you!"

"So I said that you have grown up. In the past, you could only be considered a general at most, but now you have reached a higher level and are on the way to becoming a handsome man!" Chen Long also said very seriously, "Actually, this time we just need to prevent

If the puppet army moves closer to the Japanese army, it will achieve its goal; if it beats away the puppet army, it will be a step closer. But now it has not only beaten them away, but also almost defeated them, almost eliminating the threat of the puppet army. This is the best outcome.

!”

"Hey, you three should hurry up and eat, just listen to me!" Chen Long finished the noodle soup, smiled and stood up and said: "Xiao Guzhuang frees up his hands, our troops are rich again. Today we will

Stop taking action. At noon tomorrow, you will secretly move northward and wait in hiding. Remember, especially the special operations battalion, must be released deep behind the enemy's buttocks. The goal is to attack the enemy's artillery!"
