Chapter 380: The battlefield turned into a mess. Please subscribe.
Let’s not talk about the follow-up of the Cavalry Regiment for the moment.
On the New Regiment side, after Li Yunlong asked the soldiers on the front line about the direction of the Japanese army's retreat, he quietly sneaked out of the position with a battalion, and then quickly pursued the Japanese army behind.
It only took five or six minutes from the time when the Japanese troops were discovered to be retreating to the time they chased them out of the position. In addition, when the attacking Japanese troops were retreating, they were afraid that the Eighth Route Army soldiers on the position would find clues, so they stopped at their gathering place.
Therefore, it didn't take much effort for Li Yunlong and his party to discover the traces of the Japanese army.
Li Yunlong waved his hand to signal the troops to stop advancing, and then led several battalion and company commanders up the opposite hillside.
"Captain, we didn't see any movement in other directions. This group of little devils is the same group that attacked just now. They must have been left here to confuse us. It looks like there are about three hundred people!" Zhang Dabiao put down the telescope and said.
.
Seeing that Li Yunlong was silent, Zhang Dabiao continued to persuade: "Captain, at this time, the little devils should keep a distance from each other. Eat them!"
Although there were only more than 600 people left in the first battalion, the first battalion was the Sharp Knife Battalion of the new regiment. Zhang Dabiao thought that any soldier from the first battalion would be no worse than the little Japanese escaping in front of him.
Zhang Dabiao had been beaten and suppressed by the little devils all the time in Weizi Town. How could Zhang Dabiao swallow his breath?
Li Yunlong glanced at Zhang Dabiao, and then scolded: "Dabiao, you are a fucking battalion commander now. Don't just think about fighting and charging, and use your brain more when encountering problems. But at this time
If we send more soldiers to investigate the surrounding areas, we won’t even be able to eat hot shit!”
"You said that the little devils have reached the gate of Weizi Town, why did you retreat?"
"Then the commander of the Japanese army must have discovered the threat. Maybe he discovered that Commander Zhou had cut off their retreat!" Zhang Dabiao replied directly without thinking.
"Stay close to ten, otherwise the little devils will definitely not retreat. The distance from Xinzhuang stronghold to Weizi Town is more than thirty miles at best. The soldiers have exerted their strength and can arrive in less than an hour. The cavalry regiment commanded
Faster, maybe it will be near us." Li Yunlong has a keener grasp of the battlefield.
Zhang Dabiao listened to Li Yunlong's analysis and couldn't help but ask: "Commander, should we fight or not?"
"Beat, you have to eat the meat that reaches your mouth. Anyway, Zhou Weihan is here to tell us the truth. Did you see the hillock on the opposite side? That area has some terrain advantages nearby. The heavy machine gun company will go around from the side and give me your legs."
Even if you run away, you have to occupy the hill before the Japs arrive, and the other four companies rush up to entangle the Japs!" Li Yunlong directly issued the combat order.
"Yes!" Zhang Dabiao and others responded.
Immediately, the first battalion split into two groups. One group circled around and occupied the hill in front of them, which could barely be called the commanding heights. The other group rushed directly over.
Because the Japanese army wanted to move closer to the division headquarters, they had already left the Handan-Changchang Highway and were heading southeast. They were near a wasteland at this time.
Since there was no cover, Li Yunlong and others did not chase for long before they were discovered by the little devil.
The two sides immediately exchanged hands. The Japs were fighting and retreating, while Li Yunlong and others were fighting and chasing.
The words were divided into two parts. After Zhu Dashan discovered the organized retreat of the Japanese army, he immediately sent someone to report it to Zhou Weihan who was rushing there. At the same time, he sent a cavalry platoon, in groups of two, to conduct a reconnaissance of the nearby area, trying to find out the movements of the Japanese army.
and location.
Suddenly, a burst of fierce gunfire came from the northeast.
"Captain, if there are gunshots, the new regiment must be at war with the Japs!"
"Communicator, notify other companies, others follow me!" Zhu Dashan clamped his horse's belly and called for the soldiers of the first cavalry company to follow.
When the cavalry arrived on horseback, they saw that the battlefield was divided into two parts. In one part, a battalion, a company and a heavy machine gun company were suppressing the Japanese army No. 200 and were trying to escape from the battlefield. The other part was
A group of more than a hundred Japanese soldiers at the rear were strangled with Li Yunlong and others.
The deafening sound of horse hooves awakened the two sides in the fierce battle. When they saw the cavalry from the brother army arriving, the soldiers of the new regiment on the hill immediately stopped shooting. As a result, the Japanese troops who had just gained a breather were hit head-on by the cavalry.
The cavalry continued a rampage and rushed into the crowd of Japanese soldiers without slowing down at all. Many little Japanese were knocked away.
The Fifth Company had put up a decent fight, and the soldiers of the First Cavalry Company had already become jealous. This time they seized the opportunity and killed them wantonly among the crowd of Japs.
At the same time, a new group of soldiers on the hill also rushed over. Under the attack from both sides, the battlefield became a one-sided situation, with the screams of little devils everywhere.
After a while, the battle on Li Yunlong's side was over.
"Captain Li!" Zhu Dashan dismounted and saluted with a military salute.
Li Yunlong quickly said: "Captain Zhu, where is Zhou Weihan? The little devil is trying to escape!"
"The detachment leader is on the way here. I have sent soldiers to check the location of the Japs. However, we did not encounter the large army of Japs when we came along the road. It seems that the village to the east has escaped!"
As soon as Zhu Dashan finished speaking, gunshots were heard one after another in the east, and the fighting was not in the same place.
"It's bad, the other companies of our cavalry regiment are at war with the reinforcements who came over after hearing the noise!" Zhu Dashan immediately realized that something was wrong.
The division headquarters of the 41st Division is located in a nearby village, and the straight-line distance to Weizi Town is about ten miles.
Gunfire rang out here, how could the retreating kid on the other side not hear it.
Li Yunlong took a telescope and looked around: "It's messed up, it's messed up, damn it, there are gunshots everywhere, but no one can be seen across the cornfield!"
"Zhou Weihan should be arriving soon!"
"The main force can't be far away!"
"Since there is chaos, let's fight wherever the gunfire is fierce. Zhang Dabiao, send someone to inform the political commissar. Just leave some people to guard Weizi Town. The rest of the troops will come quickly.
Support!" Li Yunlong said loudly.
The two of them joined together and led the soldiers to a battlefield.
When retreating, the Japanese army retreated in batches and along separate routes in order not to attract the attention of the new regiment.
At this time, the Japanese artillery and another baggage team had already arrived at the village where the division headquarters was located. Some of the remaining infantry squadrons had already arrived at the village, and some were still on the march.
Now there are gunshots everywhere on the battlefield, causing the surrounding Japanese troops to split up and send reinforcements to the nearest battlefield.
The changes in the battlefield situation gave the cavalry regiment an opportunity to perform. With the mobility of the cavalry, the little Japanese were as sneaky as a dog.
If you can beat him, then fight. If you can't, then you will retreat with one blow, and then rush to another battlefield, killing the little devil one by one, and turning the battlefield upside down.
The situation on the battlefield was completely chaotic.
