Wang Hu didn't want to fight the Eighth Route Army, firstly because the Eighth Route Army was too powerful. If they really fought hard, they would definitely suffer heavy casualties.

This guy only has such a small amount of money, but he doesn't want to finish building it. Without these hundreds of brothers, he will lose the foundation for his livelihood.

And once the fighting starts, if some Eighth Route Army soldiers are killed and the Eighth Route Army hates him, will he still be able to reap his benefits in the future?

He also knows how powerful the Eighth Route Army is!

Anyway, Second Lieutenant Hashimoto is also dead now, and the more than twenty little Japs who came with him have been killed and wounded, and no one can restrain him.

Naturally, Wang Hu had no worries, and Zhou Weiguo and the others only ambush from one side of the hillside, so Wang Hu decisively ordered the troops to retreat to the other side of the mountain.

Following Wang Hu's order, the Japs immediately fled toward the mountain in panic.

They are not stupid, nor do they have the courage to continue fighting against the Eighth Route Army. Escape is the most important thing now.

There are more than 200 puppet troops. Zhou Weiguo and his dozens of people are not easy to destroy them.

The main purpose of Zhou Weiguo was to eliminate the Japanese and at the same time prevent these puppet troops from escaping back to their stronghold, because the more enemies there are in the stronghold, the greater the threat will be when they attack the stronghold later.

I saw that these puppet soldiers did not escape back to their stronghold, but ran to the opposite mountain.

Zhou Weiguo sneered and said, "These guys are quite cunning."

Under normal circumstances, they would instinctively flee to the stronghold. After all, it is not far from the stronghold and they can reach it just after turning around the foot of the mountain behind.

Wang Hu did not do this. In fact, if he did, Zhou Weiguo and the others would have no choice but to intercept and kill them with all their strength, and they would definitely suffer heavy casualties by then.

Therefore, Wang Hu is still very cunning, and this method of handling is undoubtedly the best choice.

Zhou Weiguo is too lazy to waste ammunition on these guys at this moment. After all, the distance is getting farther and farther, and the probability of hitting is getting lower and lower, so why waste bullets in vain.

"Stop shooting~!"

Zhou Weiguo quickly stopped everyone, and the gunfire gradually stopped.

Zhou Weiguo shouted loudly to the opposite side: "You two Japs opposite, please listen clearly to me, we are the new regiment of the 386th Brigade!"

"Our main force will arrive soon. Once the main force arrives, it will crush the Wangzhuang stronghold. If you are not afraid of death, just go back and try!"

"If you don't want to die, it's still too late to escape now!"

Wang Hu, who was climbing up the mountain, couldn't help but stop when he heard these words, listened carefully, and couldn't help but change his face.

"Brother! They said it was the new regiment of the 386th Brigade."

"Isn't that Li Yunlong's army?"

"It turns out to be Li Yunlong's army, no wonder it's so powerful!"

"Brother, they are going to establish a stronghold, what should we do?"

"Shut up for me!"

Wang Hu pretended to be calm and said: "Let's take a look at the situation first. What if they are bluffing?"

"What if they really want to build a stronghold?" asked a puppet soldier.

Wang Hu said helplessly: "If it is really Li Yunlong's main force who has arrived and they are setting up a stronghold, then we will have no choice but to escape."

At this time, a puppet army officer said: "There are still more than a hundred of our soldiers in the stronghold!"

Wang Hu said angrily: "But there are still more than 20 little Japs inside! Do you think the more than 100 brothers in the stronghold can still be evacuated?"

"Do you think those little devils will let them out of their stronghold?"

"So we can't save them. Now we are just hoping that the Tubal Road opposite is bluffing. There is no such thing as Li Yunlong's large force."

At this moment, there was a sound of horse hooves in the distance. Wang Hu quickly turned around and saw a cloud of dust rising in the distance.

A group of cavalry suddenly rushed up from the path leading to their previous checkpoint, and then rushed towards them on horseback.

The battle flags were fluttering, horses hoofed in formation, and it was roughly estimated that there were at least several hundred cavalry.

"Cavalry~!"

"Eighth Route Cavalry!"

Wang Hu's face turned pale with fright, and he quickly ordered: "Retreat immediately, climb over the mountain, take the path, and run away quickly!"

If the cavalry from the Eighth Route Army arrived and surrounded them from behind and blocked them on both sides, blocking them on the mountain, they would not be able to escape even if they wanted to.

Wang Hu was not stupid and quickly ordered a retreat.

Each of these puppet soldiers was so frightened that they panicked and fled. The scene was chaotic.

The cavalry coming was none other than the cavalry battalion led by Sun Desheng.

Zhou Weiguo stood on the hillside and shouted loudly: "Battle Commander Sun, don't go forward."

"After passing the foot of the mountain in front, you will find the Wangzhuang stronghold."

"Uu~!"

Sun Desheng reined in his horse and raised his hand to signal the cavalry soldiers to stop.

Sun Desheng glanced at the corpses on the ground and asked, "Were you the ones who killed these little devils?"

Zhou Weiguo nodded and said, "Yes! They are all enemies of the Wangzhuang stronghold."

Sun Desheng asked: "Where was the one who escaped from the mountain just now?"

Gu Niao

Zhou Weiguo replied: "They are all a group of Japanese devils. They probably took a small road to escape now. You may not be able to catch up if you go around and chase them."

"A bunch of Japanese devils are boring!" Sun Desheng shook his head and didn't bother to chase them at all.

As Zhou Weiguo said, if you go around and chase but fail to catch up, wouldn't it be a waste of time?

These puppet soldiers are very thieves and are more familiar with the nearby terrain. They hide in the mountains or simply escape by taking some small roads that cannot be walked by horses. Their pursuit is in vain.

If it's a little devil, it's still worth chasing.

Sun Desheng gave Zhou Weiguo a thumbs up and said, "Brother Zhou, you are really awesome. You have made great achievements again this time."

Zhou Weiguo smiled and said: "It's just a fluke!"

This time, thirty little Japs and a dozen puppet soldiers were killed.

We seized two crooked weapons belonging to the little devil, nineteen 38-guns, several bastard boxes, a batch of bullets, grenades and other weapons and equipment.

In addition to these, there is also a Maxim heavy machine gun, two Czech light machine guns, more than 30 rifles of the puppet army, and some ammunition.

Because the situation was chaotic at that time, the Japanese Japs were busy escaping for their lives. Some Japs simply threw away their guns, especially those carrying machine guns. Most of them threw away their guns. Carrying that thing to climb a mountain, isn't that asking for death?

Wang Hu brought out a total of one Maxim heavy machine gun and three Czech light machine guns. Only one light machine gun was taken away, and the rest were all thrown away. Now it was Zhou Weiguo's advantage.

Although this batch of weapons and ammunition is not much, for a platoon leader Zhou Weiguo, it is definitely a great achievement, not to mention that he also killed thirty little Japs this time!

Sun Desheng said with a smile: "You are so humble. You and your platoon have defeated so many enemies and killed so many little devils. This is not something you can do just by luck."

"If you ask me, you should come to our cavalry battalion! I will directly make you the deputy battalion commander!"

Zhou Weiguo walked down the hillside and said with a smile: "Didn't I tell you before? I'm not good at horseback riding. Getting on a horse will affect my fighting ability."

Sun Desheng said with a smile: "That's what I said. Even if you agree, I don't think the group leader will agree."

"The leader thinks highly of you."

Zhou Weiguo asked quickly: "By the way, where are our large troops?"

Sun Desheng replied: "He will be there soon!"

"So fast?"

Zhou Weiguo was a little surprised. After all, the main force was outnumbered and its marching speed was incomparable to their platoon.

Not to mention anything else, Zhou Weiguo's platoon had no heavy weapons, food or other supplies. The soldiers were lightly armed and simple, and their speed was naturally much faster than that of the large army.

Sun Desheng explained: "The regiment leader personally came here with a battalion in advance. He is probably worried that you will encounter the enemy. We also received orders to meet you."

"I see!"

Zhou Weiguo nodded and asked: "Is the regiment leader planning to attack the Wangzhuang stronghold?"

Sun Desheng nodded and said, "Yes, the leader does have this intention."

Zhou Weiguo said: "Then please ask Battalion Commander Sun to send someone to inform the regiment commander and tell them not to take this road."

"Let them take the north path at the intersection of the Persimmon Tree and turn all the way north and east. They can go around to the front of the Wangzhuang stronghold."

"When the army attacks a stronghold, it can launch an attack from the front. If it attacks from this direction, our artillery will not be able to hit their stronghold at all."

"Our men turned around the foot of the mountain in front and entered their machine gun range."

Sun Desheng nodded, and then ordered: "Signal soldier, do you understand? Go and notify the regiment commander immediately. It should be too late, so go quickly."

"yes!"

The signal soldier responded quickly and galloped away on horseback.

Sun Desheng smiled and said: "Brother Zhou, you have made meritorious service again this time."

Zhou Weiguo smiled and said: "If the leader is willing to reward me with two bottles of wine, I will treat you to a drink then."
