No matter how stupid Maeda Mukashi was, he realized that the situation was not good at this moment, so he personally led his troops and rushed forward.

Under the order of Maeda Muashi, a group of Japs began to climb up the hillside and chased in the direction of the Eighth Route Army's retreat.

Maeda Mizushi led another group of people and turned around the foot of the mountain, where there was a canyon.

The vanguard of the little devils also entered the canyon and was ambushed by the Eighth Route Army.

At this moment, the canyon was filled with gunpowder smoke and corpses were strewn across the field. It was a terrible sight.

Seeing the corpses of Japanese soldiers everywhere, Maeda Mizuki shivered with anger.

At this time, a Japanese officer ran over, lowered his head and said: "Reporting to your Excellency, the captain, we just took a rough look and found that almost all of the more than a thousand people in the vanguard have been lost."

"Bagaya Deer!"

Maeda cursed angrily and shouted loudly: "Give me the order to give chase. You must catch up with those bastards and eliminate them all."

"Hai!"

The Japanese officer responded quickly and turned around to convey the order.

At this moment, Kong Jie and Ding Wei had already led their troops and began to retreat according to the original plan.

Kong Jie turned around and took a look, and said with a smile: "This battle was so damn good. I killed thousands of Japanese in one go and made a lot of money!"

Ding Wei said with some regret: "The only drawback is that all the trophies were wasted."

This time, although many little Japs were killed, they had no time to clean the battlefield. Naturally, they had no chance to take away the weapons, ammunition and other materials carried by the Japs who were killed.

But in order to win this battle, the two regiments Ding Wei and Kong Jie consumed a lot of ammunition.

Considering purely from the perspective of ammunition consumption, they suffered a huge loss this time.

The large amount of ammunition that Li Yunlong gave them before was basically used up.

However, the effect was indeed good. In such a short period of time, more than a thousand little devils were killed, and the harvest was not small.

Ding Wei felt somewhat distressed when he thought about consuming so much ammunition.

Fortunately, Li Yunlong had promised them that he would replenish their ammunition.

The reason why Li Yunlong did this was because he was worried that these two misers would continue to fight the little devils in order to seize the spoils.

That's not a wise move, after all, these little devils are not vegetarians either.

Moreover, behind them, there are tens of thousands of Japanese troops. Once the main force of the 37th Division arrives and bites them, it will not be so easy for them to withdraw.

At least a piece of meat will have to be cut by then.

But now, it is undoubtedly the best choice to withdraw as soon as you see a good situation, run away after the fight, and withdraw as soon as you take advantage.

This is equivalent to obtaining the greatest victory at the smallest cost.

Li Yunlong has no shortage of ammunition now, so it doesn't hurt to give them some more.

Kong Jie glanced at Ding Wei and said, "Are you worried that that guy Li Yunlong doesn't keep his word and refuses to give us weapons and ammunition?"

Ding Wei waved his hand and said, "That's not true. This guy Li Yunlong has become more generous now, and he will definitely keep his words."

"But even if he did give us the ammunition, it would be wasted."

Ding Wei said and pointed behind him.

Kong Jie said with a smile: "Don't worry, let the little devils save it for us first, and we will find them sooner or later and get it back."

Ding Wei smiled and said: "Your tone is getting louder and louder now."

Kong Jie chuckled and said, "That's because we are now stronger. Only with this strength can we dare to say this."

Ding Wei nodded slightly and said, "That's not bad."

"But if the little devil catches up, let's evacuate this place quickly."

Kong Jie said with a smile: "As expected, the little devil suddenly received a beating, and he will definitely not let it go!"

"Let them chase them! In this vast mountain, can't we outrun them?"

Ding Wei smiled slightly and said: "That's true! Our mission has been completed, and it's going to be dark soon. Get rid of them and rush to meet Lao Li and the others as soon as possible."

"Okay~!"

…

Just as Kong Jie said, it is absolutely impossible for the little devil to catch up with the Eighth Route Army.

These little devils were soon thrown away.

Although Maeda Mizushi was almost furious, there was nothing he could do.

This old devil had no choice but to go to the division commander, Kenkichi Hirata, to plead guilty.

By this time, Hirata Kenkichi had already arrived near Xiaocan Mountain. When he learned about the attack on the Maeda Alliance, the old Japanese was extremely angry.

Maeda said respectfully: "Your Excellency, division commander, you are guilty of demeaning your duty and should be punished with death. We were ambushed by Tubal Road and suffered heavy losses."

Hirata Kenkichi said angrily: "Maeda Mizushi, have you been kicked in the head by a donkey?"

"What happened? In such a short period of time, more than a thousand people were lost."

"Our Thirty-seventh Division has lost all face because of you idiot."

Maeda said respectfully to Shiki: "Your Excellency, division commander, please calm down. You should be punished with death for underestimating your position."

"But... this is really just an accident!"

Hirata Kenkichi said angrily: "More than a thousand imperial troops died in the battle, can you explain it by just saying an accident?"

"Hmph~! You are just a bunch of stupid pigs. So many people were beaten to death, and yet they even ran away."

Maeda Mizuki quickly explained: "I sent people to chase after me, but the mountain road is rugged and difficult to navigate, and at night, the visibility is not good, and those on the Tubal Road were well prepared and familiar with the terrain, so we did not catch up."

"Please calm down, Division Commander!"

Hirata Kenkichi was so angry that his head hurt, and he couldn't help but cursed: "You idiot, you still have the nerve to say it, is this something worth showing off?"

"Hai!"

Maeda Mizushi said quickly: "You deserve to die because of your humble position. Please calm down, your Excellency, the division commander."

Hirata Kenkichi tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, gritted his teeth and asked: "In which direction did they escape."

Maeda Mizushi quickly replied: "They fled to the northeast into the mountains."

Hirata Kenkichi frowned and said, "So, they did not flee to the source of the river."

Maeda Mizushi said: "Judging from the direction of their retreat, there should be none."

Hirata Kenkichi's frown deepened. The old devil thought for a while, and then asked: "Where is the 9th Independent Mixed Brigade now?"

A Japanese Lieutenant Colonel next to him quickly replied: "According to the battle report from the 9th Independent Mixed Brigade, they were stubbornly blocked by the enemy today and were moving slowly. They are now about 20 miles away from Heyuan City.

.”

Hirata Kenkichi frowned and said, "What is the intention of this Li Yunlong?"
