Spotted Tiger hurriedly came to Zhen Sanjiang and gasped: "Brother, the Japanese offensive is too fierce, the brothers have suffered too many casualties, and it is almost impossible to withstand it!"
Zhen Sanjiang's facial muscles twitched violently and said: "The wind is tight, pull it!"
"Cannot withdraw!" Xue Lihong immediately stepped forward to stop it, "Brother, we promised that the new regiment would defend Baishan County for at least two days, and now only one day has passed!"
After a pause, Xue Lihong said again: "We can't break our trust!"
The piebald tiger said: "Little sister, if you keep guarding any longer, our brothers will be dead!"
Zhen Sanjiang waved his hand and said: "Second brother, lead the brothers to retreat immediately!"
After saying that, Zhen Sanjiang said to Xue Lihong: "Little sister, it's not that we don't want to guard, it's really that we can't guard anymore. If we continue to guard, it will only be guarding for a few more hours, but we will involve all the brothers. If
Brother He is here, and he probably doesn’t want to see so many of our brothers being confessed in Baishan County, especially you!”
Xue Lihong didn't say anything more, they tried their best.
After the bandits withdrew from Baishan County, the 38th Division immediately occupied the entire city, and then left an infantry brigade to guard Baishan County. However, the main force of the division attacked along the road toward Linjiang overnight, because the front army commander
The Ministry just gave them a death order, asking them to catch up with Xu Rui's new group as soon as possible!
The 38th Division traveled day and night, chasing for two full days and nights, and finally caught up with the main force of the new regiment led by Xu Rui at dawn on the third day! Of course, the poor little devil had no idea that what they were catching up with was not
It's not the main force of the new regiment, but just the fifth battalion of the new regiment. It's just a false target!
When they caught up, the armored vehicle in which Furukawa Shinnosuke, the commander of the 38th Division, happened to climb a hill. Chief of Staff Tsukui who was in the same vehicle accidentally looked out the window and saw something on the ridge ahead across a valley.
There were flickers of fire, and he immediately ordered the driver to stop, and then got out of the armored vehicle with Shinnosuke Furukawa.
"Division commander!" Da Jinkui pointed at the fire ahead and said, "We have caught up with Xu Rui's new regiment!"
"Not yet!" Furukawa Shinnosuke shook his head and said, "There is a famous old proverb in China, which is called "Looking up the mountain and running to death. Don't look at it. There is only a river valley between us and Shinyidan, which is like a tentacle."
It's within reach, but in fact it's at least four hours away. If you want to catch up with them, it will be after noon at least!"
"Hai!" Otsukui nodded and said with regret, "It's a pity that our formation is too big to hide our tracks. Otherwise, without knowing it, the new regiment might march at night as before and march during the day.
Rest, then the imperial army will be able to catch up with them soon, instead of having to wait until after noon!"
"That's nothing." Furukawa Shinnosuke waved his hand and said, "Unless the new regiment throws away their baggage and all the wounded, they won't be able to move fast at all, and they are destined to be overtaken by the imperial army in the end." After a pause, he continued,
"Order all infantry regiments to speed up their march and pursue me at full speed!"
"Hai!" Ojinkui nodded.
…
Almost at the same time, Shi Changqing also saw the dots of firelight on the ridge behind.
Ding Wenbao, commander of the 13th Company, said: "Old Shi, look at this formation, the Japs must be catching up."
"The Japanese devils are quite fast." Qin Gang, commander of the 14th company, said, "They caught up so quickly."
Liu Yiming, commander of the 15th company, said: "It seems that the bandits in Baishan County failed to complete their mission, and they only delayed it for a day at most."
"A group of bandits can hold off a Japanese division for a day." Shi Changqing shook his head and said, "Our mission has been completed, and now it's time to get into the old forest and get rid of the Japanese."
"Then what are you waiting for?" Ding Wenbao said, "Hurry up and get in before the Japanese catch up."
"Not now." Shi Changqing shook his head and said, "We have to wait until daybreak to let the little devil see our lineup clearly and let the little devil know that the main force of the new regiment is not here. This is what Battalion Commander Xiao He personally ordered."
"Why is this?" Ding Wenbao asked in confusion, "If we make the little devil suddenly disappear, wouldn't it make the little devil even more confused? If the little devil is confused, he will only be here in Huishan.
By digging three feet into the ground, the main force of the regiment, which has already turned towards Fusong, will be safer, right?"
"You asked me?" Shi Changqing watched Ding Wenbao point to his nose, and after receiving a positive answer, he cursed, "Who the hell should I ask? If I can fucking think of what Battalion Commander Xiao He is thinking,
If the group leader is not here, can this acting group leader still have his boy take his turn? Really."
…
After daybreak, the main force of the new group entered a ravine and took cover.
Fusong County already belongs to the deep mountainous area of Changbai Mountain and has a small population. However, He Shuya is still very cautious. He still sends many soldiers pretending to be hunters or herb farmers to wander at the entrance of the ravine and on the hills on both sides.
If you find any real hunters or farmers approaching, drive them away immediately.
Wang Husheng and He Shuya settled all the wounded before they could sit down and rest.
Wang Husheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked He Shuya: "Shuya, there is something that I have never been able to figure out. If you let Wuying suddenly disappear directly near Huishan, wouldn't you be more able to confuse the Japanese? Then the Japanese will only be in Huishan."
We look for them nearby without thinking that the main force of our new regiment has quietly arrived in Fusong County."
He Shuya shook his head and asked: "Political Commissar, if you put yourself in my shoes, if you were an old devil like Yamashita Fengwen, and you learned that the new regiment suddenly disappeared, what would be your first reaction?"
Wang Husheng said: "Of course we will step up the search at the place of disappearance!"
He Shuya said: "What if we can't find it? What should we do next?"
"Is that so?" Wang Husheng frowned and continued, "Then we can only strengthen the blockade of the Changbai Mountain area so that not a single mouse can escape!"
He Shuya said: "This is actually very disadvantageous for our new regiment, because in this way, our new regiment is actually marching day and night, which is very hard, but the Japanese stopped instead. They were originally chasing us behind us.
The heavy army group will be dispersed and stationed outside the Changbai Mountain area, waiting for work. Then when we finally try to break through the Japanese blockade and go to Hunchun to join the regiment leader, we will encounter a strong blockage! We may even be surrounded by heavy troops!"
"So?" Wang Husheng nodded suddenly, and then said, "You want to mobilize the Japanese?"
"Yes, we must try to mobilize the Japs!" He Shuya said, "At least we can't let the Japs heavy group behind us stop and rest. We must drag down the Japs pursuers and tire them out! They can no longer pose a threat to us, and then wait until the pursuers are completely
When we are thrown away, concentrate all your efforts to break through the Japanese blockade and go to Hunchun to join the group leader and the others!"
"So that's it." Wang Husheng suddenly said, "I understand!"
…
Near Huishan City.
After getting off the car just now, Furukawa Shinnosuke and Otsuki didn't get in the car again. Firstly, it was too hot in the car. Secondly, the armored vehicle couldn't drive fast on the bumpy road, and it was very bumpy, so the two old devils
He simply got off the car and walked with the large group.
The sky was getting brighter. Otsukui subconsciously looked up at the river valley in front of him, then turned back casually, wanting to say something to Furukawa Shinnosuke, but the next moment, Otsukui immediately turned his head again and looked at the river valley ahead.
, and then hurriedly raised the telescope on his chest.
Furukawa Shinnosuke saw Otsukui like this and asked in surprise: "Otsu-kun, what's wrong?"
Ojinkui didn't say a word, but veins suddenly appeared on his hands holding the telescope.
After a few seconds, Otsu Kuicai said in a trembling voice: "Division Commander, we have been fooled, we have been fooled!"
"Nani, have we been fooled?" Furukawa Shinnosuke was stunned when he heard this, and said with confusion, "What have we been fooled?"
Ojinkui took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down. Then he pointed at the valley ahead and said, "Division commander, you'd better see for yourself."
Furukawa Shinnosuke raised his telescope and looked at the river valley with some confusion.
At one glance, Furukawa Shinnosuke's eyes immediately widened.
At this time, the sky was already very bright, so Furukawa Shinnosuke could see clearly that the Chinese soldiers in the valley ahead were only seven or eight hundred at best, definitely less than a thousand! How is this possible? Less than half an hour ago, Shinnosuke
The main force of the group is still in the river valley ahead, why did they lose so much in the blink of an eye?
The next moment, Furukawa Shinnosuke immediately thought of another possibility. Could it be blocked by the mountain?
However, what makes Furukawa Shinnosuke extremely disappointed is that the terrain in the valley ahead is relatively gentle, and there are no mountains blocking the view within at least one kilometer. In other words, there are indeed only about seven or eight hundred people in the valley ahead!
Ojinkui added: "Division commander, please pay attention to their hands, many of them are holding two torches!"
When Furukawa Shinnosuke hurriedly raised his telescope, he found that indeed many Chinese soldiers were holding two torches. They extinguished the torches as they walked and then threw them on the roadside!
There is no doubt that this is a trick of the new regiment! Let a small army each carry two torches, and then deliberately widen the marching interval of the team, giving the impression that a large army of at least 5,000 people is in the area.
To create a realistic illusion of marching, in order to deceive the Japanese aviation aerial reconnaissance, they deliberately marched only at night!
At this moment, something strange happened again in the valley ahead.
I saw that the group of Chinese soldiers who were originally marching along the road suddenly left the road and turned into a path leading to a valley. Moreover, the Chinese soldiers were marching very fast, in less than half an hour.
, the team of six to seven hundred people had disappeared into the lush valley.
