"Boom boom boom..."

"Bagaya Road, heavy artillery!"

"Bagayalu, my eyes!"

"The Eighth Route Army is too despicable. They used poison gas. I want to protest!"

…

The Japanese who were bombed also told all kinds of nonsense. The explosive packets added with chili powder and quicklime powder not only shattered the internal organs of the Japanese, but also released a large number of suspected chemical weapons on the position. It was so spicy that they didn't die.

The Japanese burst into tears, and some were blinded by the lime powder...

Those small pieces of rusty iron were sprayed everywhere after the explosion, with no blind spots in 360 degrees. Although they survived on the spot after being hit by one, the wounds were infected and there was no way to save them. The tragic screams greatly affected morale!

There is no use hiding in the ring fortifications. Once the gun is fired, the huge shock wave will kill the Japanese alive.

The Japanese have never experienced such fierce artillery fire...

"boom!"

A 75mm field artillery shell accidentally fell into the Japs' baggage, and was very lucky to hit the shell pile, causing a series of explosions that blew up the Japs.

The Japanese finally couldn't stand it anymore and began to flee in twos and threes...

The Eighth Route Army's artillery shells are still exploding endlessly, especially the big artillery shells, which explode into a large area, killing or injuring people within a few dozen meters of the center of the explosion!

A loud bugle sounded!

"Killing noise!"

…

The Eighth Route Army began to charge. The shouts of killing that filled the mountains and plains made the Japanese feel confused after hearing it. They did not know how many Eighth Route Army there were.

There are vengeful gunshots and gunfire everywhere, eight-way traffic everywhere, and frightening shouts everywhere...

The sound of military bugles keeps coming and going!

"Ta-ta-ta..."

"Come on, kill the Japanese!"

The Japanese finally couldn't hold it anymore, and a large-scale rout occurred. It spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred. The rout was like a plague, it could be contagious!

Not to mention the Japanese's strong willpower, they will still collapse when they are defeated like a mountain. When the avalanche comes, not a single snowflake can hold on.

The Japs began to rout on a large scale. Fifteen companies from the mobile battalion and the garrison battalion fought their way into the Japs' positions, which accelerated the Japs' rout...

"Boom, boom, boom, boom..."

The face of the old devil in Hengshan turned pale.

"Bagaya Road, cavalry!"

"Cavalry company, charge!"

Ma Shuai still took the lead, raising his sharp saber high, drawing a beautiful arc, and a big Japanese dog's head rolled to the ground, rolling far away...

The old Japanese soldier Yokoyama had no choice but to be escorted by a guard squadron led by Colonel Suzuki to evacuate all the way to Liuzhen Street before he stabilized his position.

The counterattack troops of the Eighth Route Army also retreated as soon as they were ready, and began to clear out the isolated troops and consolidate the results of the battle.

The Japanese's defeat was too sudden. The infantry escaped, but the artillery regiment's artillery and most of the baggage were thrown away, becoming spoils of war for the Eighth Route Army.

"Commander, you have made a fortune. There are cannons and supplies thrown by the devils everywhere, and there is no way to capture them!"

Chu Xiong took a look at those heavy cannons. Not only could they not take them with them when the Japanese were defeated, they couldn't take them with them when they were chasing the Japanese now. They were just a bunch of burdens!

"Comrades, don't worry about these cumbersome things for now. Except for the lighter infantry guns and mortars, don't leave them alone. Put them aside and put them away after you finish fighting the Japanese!"

"It's important to chase down the Japanese!"

Chu Xiong didn't want these stupid guys to affect the pursuit speed of the independent regiment. If the Japs wanted to withdraw from Liu Town this time, they would have to shed their skins even if they didn't die.

The officers and soldiers of the independent regiment continued to hunt down and eliminate the defeated soldiers, and applied wounds to the injured Japanese soldiers. The large army could not attack them for the time being, but the scattered Japanese soldiers could still be eliminated.

It wasn't until ten o'clock in the morning that the scattered Japanese soldiers who had been defeated were completely wiped out, and the results of the battle were tallied up. Chief of Staff Zhong Guoliang reported the results to Chu Xiong with excitement:

"Reporting to the head of the regiment, this counterattack killed a total of 936 Japs, and seized 12 75mm field guns, 8 infantry guns, 15 90mm mortars, more than 700 guns of various types, 22 grenades, medicines,

Food and various types of ammunition cannot be counted at the moment, they are piled up in mountains!"

Chu Xiong was also very happy after hearing this. Although not many Japanese were eliminated, the Japanese lost most of their baggage, which would undoubtedly cost the Japanese their lives.

Without the baggage, the seven or eight thousand mouths crowded in Liuzhen were enough to give the old Japanese in Hengshan a headache.

"Old Zhong, from now on, the troops must fight steadily and never give the Japanese any chance to counterattack. Now the Japanese have no heavy firepower. Mobilize the masses to evacuate the captured equipment and materials to the mountains quickly to avoid the Japanese planes.

Come and cause destruction!”

"When moving things, move the light ones first. If the cannons can be moved, move them. If they can't be moved, throw them to both sides of the road first. Prioritize moving ammunition and food, and be quick!"

Zhong Guoliang left after receiving the order. He had to quickly mobilize the masses to transfer supplies. If the Japanese plane came, it would be troublesome.

Chu Xiong led the main force to continue to bite the Japanese. There were at least 7,000 Japanese who could not be easily attacked.

After the people in the base area learned that the Eighth Route Army had won the battle, under the organization of the militia company, they began to help the troops transfer the seized materials;

There is really strength in numbers, and within an hour, most of the mountains of supplies were moved to safe areas.

At around 11 o'clock in the morning, the Japanese plane arrived. They came to airdrop supplies to the Japanese. The Japanese in Liu Town cheered, but unfortunately, the supplies dropped were not much, and they were not enough to consume their 7,000-strong army for one day!

After the Japanese air-dropped the supplies, they used the machine guns on the plane to blast the Eighth Route Army's positions, causing more than 20 casualties to the independent regiment. Fortunately, the supplies had been transferred and they did not carry aerial bombs, so the overall loss was

Not big.

"Old Zhong, our troops have to withdraw into the mountains and forests on both sides. They can't get too close to the Japanese. Just follow them from a distance. We can't give the Japanese planes a chance to bomb!"

After Chuxiong suffered a secret loss from the Japanese plane, the troops chasing the Japanese broke away from contact with the Japanese and lurked in the mountains and forests on both sides of the road;

As long as the Japanese dare to leave their lair, they will bombard them with thunder cannons and mortars. These two types of cannons are relatively light and can follow the troops.

Yokoyama Yiyong was very depressed. A few thousand troops were chased by two thousand Eighth Route Army troops. The Imperial Army had never fought such a frustrating battle!

War really does not depend on the number of people. It is better for them to huddle in Liuzhen with a few thousand people. Once they attack the Eighth Route Army, the Eighth Route Army's terrifying artillery will greet them for free. If there are many people, they will only give away their heads.

"Suzuki-kun, Chuxiong is too cunning. They have been keeping a distance of about one kilometer from us. They have fierce firepower and sufficient ammunition. Our counterattack troops cannot get close at all, and they cannot use their strength!"

The old Japanese soldier Hengshan was discussing with Colonel Suzuki how to deal with the Eighth Route Army. The tactics of the Eighth Route Army made him unable to start, and he was very frustrated.

"Your Excellency, General, Chu Xiong's purpose is obvious. They want to consume the imperial army. Although we still have more than 7,000 troops, the bullets of each warrior are not enough for a counterattack, and there are only three grains left.

Oh my god, we can’t spend time in Liu Town anymore!”

"Suzuki-kun, you are right, but the Eighth Route Army has been hanging us like ghosts. If we want to withdraw, we must leave an army to block the attack in Liu Town."

If Suzuki hadn't understood what the old Japanese soldier Yokoyama said, he wouldn't be worthy of being chief of staff. He said with a decisive look on his face:

"Your Excellency, General, leave me a large group of troops. I will defend Liu Town for three days and keep Chu Xiong's pursuers out of Liu Town!"

Hengshan nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Yoshi, Suzuki-kun is indeed His Majesty the Emperor's most loyal and brave warrior, and a role model for the Imperial soldiers! I'll leave Liuzhen to you!"

After Yokoyama finished speaking, he bowed cautiously to Suzuki, a bow that could kill someone.
Chapter completed!
