Colonel Yongsheng glared at the adjutant and directly ordered: "Then why are you still standing there? Contact Liulin County immediately and find out the battle situation there~"
"If you can't hold on for five or six hours, then it's useless to go to the cavalry regiment. Moreover, the cavalry regiment will be buried in Liulin, and the meat buns will beat the dogs, and there will be no return~"
In less than ten minutes, the adjutant came back, looking very unhappy.
"How's the situation?" The anxious Colonel Yongsheng asked quickly.
"Very bad!" the adjutant replied, shaking his head.
"The situation is similar to what we judged at the beginning. The Eighth Route Army has hidden many troops in Liulin City. There is also a brigade of troops and a large number of mountain artillery outside the city."
"In order to defend the county seat, as soon as the battle began, the remaining troops dispersed all their forces on the city wall to block the Eighth Route Army's all-out attack. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, the Eighth Route Army hidden in the city began to take action."
"It took almost no effort to capture the warehouse where we store ammunition and supplies, and then launch an attack on our defenders from the back, intending to attack Liulin's city defenses from both inside and outside!"
"After an hour of fighting, the troops left behind suffered very heavy casualties!"
"They plan to shrink their defenses, take the headquarters as the center, occupy several yards, and concentrate their forces to defend!"
Colonel Yongsheng cursed loudly: "Stupid pigs, they are just a bunch of stupid pigs! The supplies and ammunition have been lost, so what's the use of holding on... Why didn't you shrink the defense earlier and defend with the material warehouse as the center!"
"What I want is our food and ammunition supplies in Liulin County, not Liulin County, nor the Liulin headquarters!"
"Immediately ask him if it is possible to recapture food and ammunition supplies, and then rely on the warehouse to hold on. If possible, they can hold on for several hours!"
The adjutant had never seen Colonel Yongsheng lose his temper before. He didn't dare to say any nonsense, turned around and rushed out of the tent.
This time, it only took a few minutes to return to the tent: "Sir, they called back. More than half of the troops have been killed and wounded, and there are more than 200 people left. Moreover, all heavy weapons have been lost. It is very difficult to recapture the material warehouse. And even if we try our best to seize it,
When they come back, they won't be able to defend such a large warehouse. Retaking the warehouse will definitely require a high price, and their current total strength is only more than 200 people. By then, they will definitely have no troops..."
"Since there is no way to recapture those food and ammunition supplies, then blow them up for me!" Colonel Yongsheng ordered with a stern face.
Then he ordered with a murderous tone: "Tell them, no matter what the cost, they will blow up the warehouse for me. The Eighth Route Army relies on seizures to continue to grow and develop. Without seizures, they will not be able to develop, and they will not even suffer battle losses."
Ways added!”
"Without food and ammunition supplies, there is no need for the existence of Liulin County. After blowing up the warehouse, the troops immediately broke out and abandoned Liulin County. They evacuated as many people as they could. It was better than staying in the county.
It would be better if the army is destroyed!"
"Reply a telegram to the Cavalry Regiment and ask them to give up their actions to reinforce Liulin and return to their base immediately!"
"Also, send a telegram to the Chief of Staff. Starting tomorrow, the troops will stop advancing. If there is no new ammunition supply to replenish the troops, we will have no choice but to terminate this sweep!"
"Finally, send a telegram to the division headquarters to report our current situation and request tactical guidance!"
On the battlefield where most of the Japs' cavalry regiment had just been killed, every soldier had a smile on his face as he looked at the corpses of the Japs everywhere.
"Deputy Chief of Staff, this is definitely a great victory~ We just counted, we found a total of more than 650 corpses of little Japanese on the battlefield, and there must be more nearby that have not been found! More than 300 war horses were killed.
Nearly two hundred intact war horses have been collected now, and there should be nearly two hundred more war horses scattered around. I have ordered the troops to expand the search scope!"
"More than two hundred ~ there are at least three hundred horses scattered around. Don't forget, the Japanese Cavalry Regiment also has a machine gun team and artillery team. There are nearly a hundred horses transporting heavy machine guns, mortars and supporting ammunition.
Horses... None of the Japanese soldiers who retreated with these war horses were taken away, and they were not killed. They must have been frightened and hid around!"
"Continue to send more manpower to find all these war horses!"
"Yes...Deputy Chief of Staff!" the brigade commander replied with excitement.
Before he could leave, the telegraph operator rushed over: "Chief, telegram from the direct team!"
"They have found the Japanese Cavalry Regiment. There are less than 300 cavalry left. They stopped three kilometers in front of us to rest. The direct team requested to launch an attack and kill them!"
The brigade commander who was about to leave immediately reminded: "Deputy Chief of Staff, do you want me to let the second regiment go over and reinforce the direct team!"
"No need for now!" Wang Ping shook his head and replied.
Then a pair of eyes became hot: "The second regiment is an infantry regiment. It will take at least half an hour to get there. The day lily is cold~ There are less than 300 Japanese cavalry, and the direct team can ride horses, so they can definitely kill them!"
"Call Li Wen back and agree!"
"In addition, send a telegram to the commander. The Japanese cavalry unit has been killed by us. As long as Liulin County is captured by us again, the two Japanese raiding forces that entered our base will definitely retreat. We must seize them.
Opportunity, hold them back, use up all the ammunition in their hands, and then take the opportunity to kill them!"
The captain of the Japanese Cavalry Regiment sat down on the ground with a look of shock and panic on his face.
Five minutes later, there was still no movement from the radio station next to me.
The commander of the regiment, who was deeply afraid that the Eighth Route Army would attack, was anxious: "Send another telegram to the station to confirm the next action of the cavalry regiment!"
"Also, strengthen the vigilance and send out scouts to confirm that no Eighth Route Army is catching up behind us!"
The adjutant next to him quickly comforted him: "Sir, don't worry, I have sent additional security posts behind us, at least 500 meters away from us. If the Eighth Route Army pursues them and kills them, there is no way they will be silent!"
The co-captain’s tense nerves are relieved a lot!
"Bang bang bang... da da da~"
Suddenly, a series of chaotic gunshots rang out all around, and then seven or eight cavalry nearby were seen screaming and falling to the ground.
"Didn't you say that a guard post was sent? Why didn't they send back any news even though the Eighth Route Army had already reached us?" The captain, who had suppressed his anger, turned into an angry lion. He stared at the adjutant and cursed loudly.
No mercy either.
"What's going on with the security posts near us? The Eighth Route Army has come to kill us. Why didn't they give us a warning?"
A second lieutenant, whose uniform on his arm was stained red with blood, rushed over!
"Sir, it's over, it's over...all the guard posts are dead, and they were stabbed to death by the Eighth Route Army's bayonets!"
"There are gunshots from the Eighth Route Army from all directions, and we are surrounded again!"
The captain, who was already in shock, panicked at this time. He hesitated for several seconds before ordering: "Mount the horse, everyone mount the horse!"
"While the Eighth Route Army has not yet completely attacked us, break out of the encirclement immediately. We will return to our base. We will not go to Liulin!"
"Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta!"
As soon as several soldiers around heard the order, they rushed towards the war horse next to them. However, after just a few steps, before anyone could touch the war horse, several bullets penetrated their bodies from the back, killing them instantly!
