No matter how fast the Japanese escaped, they could not be as fast as the shells and grenades fell.

In the end, only a dozen Japanese in a squadron escaped.

They were still in shock and were afraid that there would be other traps of the Eighth Route Army here, so they did not stop at all, and continued to escape and rushed directly to the direction where the main force rushed over.

At this time, a total of thirty grenades and thirty grenades had all exploded.

Most of the more than 160 Japanese devils left in the stronghold were blown to death, and many of them were blown into pieces, not even a complete body was left.

However, there were still many Japanese soldiers living in the small stronghold.

Some hid in the ruins safely, while others were blown to the wounded and fell to the ground and screamed in pain.

Wang Ping, who was hiding behind the stronghold, did not care about these things. The main force of the Japanese and the forward squadron were only one kilometer away, and he could arrive in five minutes of marching. The artillery bombardment had been used for one minute, and then the two minutes he had to use for his retreat were eliminated. This meant that he had to end the battle in the next two minutes.

So, as soon as the explosion stopped, he ordered loudly: "Comrades, rush with me and kill the Japanese as I just said."

Because a large number of Mauser pistols equipped by the puppet army were seized in front, Wang Ping directly rushed into the stronghold with guns in one hand and without paying attention to the bloody Japanese corpses under his feet, he fired at the Japanese who were still moving in front.

A dozen Japanese hiding in the ruins reacted quickly and picked up their rifles and prepared to fight back.

But the three sharpshooters who Wang Ping stayed beside him were not vegetarians. They did not charge together, but lay on a commanding height next to the stronghold, holding a rifle, staring at the stronghold closely.

As long as the Japanese threaten Wang Ping's safety, they will definitely kill the Japanese as soon as possible.

Of course, the others who charged with Wang Ping were not so lucky.

Many people were hit by bullets and fell on the charge.

But these alive Japanese often only have the chance to fire one shot. Once they fire, they mean that their location is exposed. Because the stronghold is not big, no matter it is a crooked handle or a pistol, they can cover the entire stronghold. Therefore, once their location is exposed, they can attract several, or even more than a dozen bullets.

Finally, the two squads rushed from the back of the stronghold to the front in just one minute. At this time, there was no living Japanese at the small stronghold.

The dozen people following Wang Ping were now staring at the strongholds full of Japanese corpses, and everyone didn't believe it. Almost a squadron of Japanese soldiers was finished, and they were wiped out by dozens of them.

Although he was also killed seven or eight comrades by the stray bullets shot out by the Japanese, compared with the results he achieved in front of him, this casualty is obviously nothing?

Wang Ping was not stunned with them. He glanced at the watch on his wrist and ordered: "The main force of the Japanese will rush over in three minutes. One minute to clean the battlefield. First, take a crooked handle, then the grenade launcher and grenade, and finally get the 38th cover and bullets. Each person can't carry a weight of more than twenty kilograms, and then retreat immediately!"

"There is a crooked handle there! There is also a grenade launcher, there must be a grenade. You guys come over!" The two squad leader immediately reacted and followed the order.

In less than a minute, the remaining dozen people from the two squads left, at Wang Ping's urging, left the stronghold with reluctance, and then joined the artillery platoon to retreat back.

As for the retreat direction, it must be different from the main force's retreat direction.

Just less than two hundred meters away from the stronghold, the main Japanese army holding a torch appeared at the entrance of the stronghold.

Perhaps because he was worried that the Eighth Route Army would still be ambushed in the stronghold, Colonel Ono, led by his parent-child team, did not rashly order the Imperial Army under his command to rush in. Instead, he ordered the puppet army to cooperate with the attack to draw a series of kills in.

The puppet army was even more afraid of death, not to mention the action that was almost like stepping on landmines ahead.

Therefore, the puppet army, who had been slowing down for nearly five minutes, finally walked into the stronghold with a small Japanese team with machine guns, and then took nearly ten minutes to get out of the stronghold and report to Ono that all the imperial troops were killed in battle and that the stronghold was empty.

"Baga, the cunning Eighth Route Army, I have eaten another infantry squadron. I must catch you and tear you all into pieces!" After pulling out the command knife and slashing at the earth wall beside me, Colonel Ono instantly turned into an angry lion and cursed loudly!

Then he ordered the chief of staff around him: "Chase, chase immediately, and be sure to catch up with the Eighth Route Army and destroy them!"

The Chief of Staff quickly stood up and reminded: "The commander of the regiment is calm. The Eighth Route Army can eat one of our squadrons in such a short time. It can be seen that they are very powerful. We rush to pursue them rashly. Bei Zhi is worried that he is trapped. The Eighth Route Army is really too cunning!"

"Then what do you think should you do? Just watch the Eighth Route Army Tao Zhiyao, the more than 200 warriors here are dying in vain!" Ono asked with a look of unwillingness!

Then he waved his hand directly to stop the Chief of Staff from continuing to speak, shouting with murderous aura: "If you don't even have the courage to avenge the warriors, how should I, the captain of the regiment, and how can our regiment be expanded into a brigade!"

"Don't say it, immediately determine the direction of the Eighth Route Army's retreat and pursue it with all its might. This time, I will definitely destroy them!"

"Hi!" A small team leader immediately took the order and led his subordinates to investigate several roads around the stronghold.

The Chief of Staff looked very ugly, but in the Japanese army with strict hierarchy, he had no choice. Who told Ono to be his superior?

Of course, even if he was so angry that he had no place to stay, as long as he was still in the position of Chief of Staff for one day, he had to fulfill his duties as Chief of Staff.

After confirming that Ono's order could not be changed, the Chief of Staff could only retreat and remind him: "Captain of the corps, the Eighth Route Army is very cunning, and is best at ambushing. If we plan to pursue with all our might, we must make relevant preparations!"

"Yo Xi!" This time Ono did not refute, nodded with satisfaction to express his affirmation!

"This reminder is very timely. There must be troops in front of the main force to investigate and open the way. But in this way, the vanguard troops will be attacked by the Eighth Route Army and will be destroyed in a short period of time, just like the vanguard squadron in the stronghold in front of you!"

Ono's brows stretched out without frowning for too long, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and ordered: "Why did I forget about the security regiment? We can ask the security regiment to draw a company in front to investigate and open the way!"

Speaking of this, Ono actually showed a meaningful smile on his face. Because there was a sentence in his heart that he didn't say: "Anyway, the security regiment is all Chinese, and no matter how many deaths are, it has nothing to do with the imperial army. At worst, you can arrest more young and strong men to supplement the security regiment at that time!"

The chief of staff lit up his eyes and added: "In order to avoid the puppet army's cowardly fighting and not careful in reconnaissance, we can also draw out an Imperial Army of the combat unit to supervise these puppet troops and serve as the front-line troops together!"

"Yo Xi, just decide this. As soon as the reconnaissance team finds the direction of the Eighth Route Army's retreat, the vanguard troops will come out. The subsequent main forces will come out again after a distance of 500 meters. You must catch up with the Eighth Route Army and destroy them!" Colonel Ono made a decision directly, and ordered with a murderous intent on his face.
