"Boom, boom, boom..." The explosions coming from the battlefield suddenly became louder, and the commander's face became even more ugly.
Before he could give the order, a lieutenant rushed to him in a panic: "Sir..."
"The Eighth Route Army is stepping up its offensive."
"The artillery fire attack is more intense than before, the offensive force has doubled, and a large number of grenade launchers are participating in the battle. We can hardly withstand it."
"Sir..." A messenger hurried over with a panic expression on his face, panting and reporting.
"The artillery unit was attacked by the Eighth Route Army's large-caliber mortars and suffered heavy losses. It is temporarily unable to participate in the war..."
"Rumble..."
A series of more violent explosions followed in the ears of the commander, and his headquarters trembled a few times from the explosion.
The messenger who just came over was from the artillery unit. When he heard the explosion, his face turned pale and he continued to report: "It's a large-caliber mortar."
"Sir..."
"This place is being targeted by the heavy mortar unit of the Eighth Route Army. You must move immediately. If you don't leave, it will be too late..."
"Quickly, the protection captain moves..." the guard captain's voice sounded at the command post at the same time.
Several guards rushed in desperately, holding him to the left and right and moving out regardless of whether the captain was willing or not.
Now that the commander of the regiment has left, there is no need for the staff officer who is following him to stay here any longer.
In order to survive, everyone followed behind the captain and moved swarm away from the breach of the blockade wall.
"Rumble..."
The explosion of heavy mortar shells sounded again, and the headquarters that had just left was instantly blown into ruins.
The commander of the regiment planned to curse at the captain of the guard, but when he saw that the headquarters was destroyed, a lot of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he had to swallow back the curses that had reached his lips.
…………
"Brigadier..." The chief of staff of the independent brigade ran to Li Yunlong with excitement on his face.
"The reinforcements are on the blockade wall."
"The strength and firepower of the commando team has increased dramatically. The little devil can hardly hold on anymore and is retreating steadily."
"I saw it..." A rare smile flashed across Li Yunlong's serious face.
Then he turned his attention to the retreating Japanese commander.
The captain of the Japs unit, the bodyguards, and the headquarters staff... more than a hundred people.
The blockade wall was only a few meters wide. This group of people moved quickly along the blockade wall, making it difficult for them to avoid attracting attention.
Pointing at the group of little Japs who were being transferred, he ordered to the Chief of Staff: "There must be a big fish there, at least a Japs captain."
"Let the heavy mortar battalion fire two rounds of shells at them and see if there are any surprises."
"The main force will be ready to attack immediately."
"Start taking action once the breach opens another fifty meters, and cross the blockade as quickly as possible."
…………
"Boom boom boom..."
The violent explosion reached the ears of the Japanese commander again. This time, the impact point was tighter than before. The powerful shock wave not only made his body buzz, but also caused trauma to his internal organs. His stomach was churning, making him very uncomfortable.
But no matter what, he at least still has a chance to continue to escape.
The guards and headquarters staff who followed him were not so lucky, and they were blown over in pieces on the way to escape.
"Boom boom boom..."
A new round of explosions sounded again.
The captain first saw a ball of white light rising into the air on the blockade wall in front of him. Before he could make any reaction, he flew up and then lost consciousness...
At the same time that the Japanese captain was killed, the main force of the breakout force also rushed out from their hiding spot, quickly passed through the blockade ditch along the wooden bridge, rushed to the gap in the blockade wall, and crossed the blockade wall...
The only regret is that the Japanese commander can no longer see this scene.
Ten minutes later, the sound of firefights on the battlefield began to fade.
The commandos quickly retreated, and by the time the Japanese reacted and wanted to pursue them, they had already evacuated the blockade wall and ran several hundred meters away.
The captain of the regiment died in the battle, and the two captains who followed him also lost their lives. There were less than a thousand Japanese soldiers left in the blockade without a leader. Facing the Eighth Route Army that had broken through the blockade wall, it was neither possible to pursue nor not to pursue.
It's true that they suffered too many casualties.
Many troops have disrupted their organization.
If there is no commander to take charge of the overall situation and quickly integrate the troops, even if they chase them out, they will give the Eighth Route Army military exploits in vain.
Half an hour later, the pursuers sent by Neji Okamura reached the blockade.
Looking at the blockade wall that had been blasted open in front of him, the co-captain knew without thinking that he was late.
After learning that the two battalion captains and the unit captain who were defending here were all killed in battle, Yue Zu appointed an acting battalion captain and ordered the troops to cross the blockade and continue to pursue the Eighth Route Army.
According to the analysis just reported by the blocking force, the breakout force of the Eighth Route Army only left for half an hour.
If one blockade blocks them for half an hour, you can definitely catch them by chasing the next blockade.
But the troops seemed not to hear the pursuit order given by him and stood motionless. It was not until the wing chief of staff ran over that he understood the reason.
"Sir..."
"There is a blockade blocking the road ahead, and the troops can't get through..."
"I plan to have engineers fill in the blockade ditch and then cross the blockade line to pursue, but this will take at least twenty minutes."
"Nani..." The confident smile on the captain's face was suddenly replaced by anger, and he frowned and asked.
"Don't you think twenty minutes is too long?"
"When they fill up the blockade ditch and we pass the blockade, the breakout troops of the Eighth Route Army have already begun to attack the third blockade. How can we bite them."
"But other than filling up the blockade ditch, I can't think of any other way to cross the blockade?" the wing chief of staff said with a confused look on his face.
"How did the Eighth Route Army pass through the blockade ditch..." the commander asked anxiously.
"They can get through, why can't we..."
The little devil who had just been appointed as the temporary captain hurriedly reported: "Sir..."
"The Eighth Route Army built a large number of wooden bridges over the blockade ditch, and passed through the blockade ditch on the wooden bridges... But those wooden bridges were all taken away by the Eighth Route Army's breakout troops."
"It would take longer for the troops to temporarily find raw materials to build a wooden bridge. It would be better to fill a section of the blockade trench with explosives."
"After the Eighth Route Army's breakout troops are eliminated, I will find a way to dig out the filled blockade ditch."
The commander of the regiment was going crazy. He didn't expect that the blockade trench used to surround the Eighth Route Army would actually become a roadblock blocking the pursuit of the Imperial Army.
A pair of eyes instantly turned red, he stared at the chief of staff and cursed loudly.
"Bagya Road..."
"What are you still doing here?"
"Have the engineer squadron fill the blockade trench with explosives immediately, hurry up."
"If we delay here for one more minute, the Eighth Route Army will have more hope of successfully breaking through. Then all of us will have to bear the wrath of the Commander. Go quickly..."
