"Regiment Commander, the little devil's pursuit force is less than three minutes away from us, Made, the chase is quite urgent!" Zhang Dabiao was reporting to Li Yunlong, who was on the way.

Li Yunlong's eyes suddenly deepened, and he nodded and said: "His damn little devil is quite tenacious in chasing, by the way, it is still the Japanese troops of the Sakata Wing who are chasing?" How many people are there? ’。

"The troops covering behind the hall sent a reconnaissance team to observe, it was still the Japanese troops of the Sakata Wing, and they were wearing rubber-soled military shoes on both feet, and at first glance they were the little devils of the Sakata Wing, and they couldn't be wrong. However, there is only less than a squad of Japanese troops chasing our devils recently, and it is estimated that the devils should be chasing after them with the only cavalry squadron of war horses, and our people have blocked this group of Japanese troops, but the devils have war horses, if they are not killed, the main force of our new regiment will definitely be entangled by the Japanese army! Head. ”

Zhang Dabiao said calmly, and his tone was extremely worried. After all, although the new regiment has annihilated a large number of Japanese troops in the Lock Demon Valley, there are a large number of Japanese troops near the devil, and at this time it has been learned that a Japanese wing under the command of Abe Jiro himself has rushed to the Lock Demon Valley to meet with the remnants of the Sakata Wing, and the Japanese army will inevitably chase the new regiment to annihilate it, and the danger of the new regiment has not yet been eliminated.

Li Yunlong waved his hand and said, "Made, this little devil is really fucking persistent!" However, we broke through from the front of Cangyun Ridge, and also annihilated more than 2,000 people of the Japanese Sakata Wing in the Lock Demon Valley, and the little devils we killed were 100% disgraced. Hehe, if I were Jiro Abe, I would choose to chase after the new regiment and annihilate them all. Otherwise, in this large-scale encirclement and suppression of our Eighth Route Army, Abe Jiro's brigade suffered heavy casualties, and it would have been laughed at by other Japanese troops. In terms of Abe Jiro's personality, it's not far from us, so we have to chase it too! ’。

After a pause, Li Yunlong continued: "However, it seems that the devil is going to make up his mind to kill our new group, but unfortunately, labor and management don't want to!" Ordered the brothers, speed up the march, and rush to Xiaolizhuang at the foot of Hengshan Mountain, where we must rush to make it possible to engage the Japanese army. Otherwise, we won't be able to please if we are chased by devils in the field! ”。

"Yes, Captain!" Zhang Dabiao stood up and saluted and said, and immediately conveyed Li Yunlong's order, ordering all units of the new regiment to speed up their feet and rush to Xiaolizhuang in Hengshan.

As for why Li Yunlong dared to engage the pursuing Japanese troops in Xiaolizhuang, it was because Li Yunlong felt in his heart that after reading the military map, Xiaolizhuang in Hengshan was the most important entrance to the depth of Hengshan, where the population was not large, and the common people had already escaped in the large-scale encirclement and suppression of the Eighth Route Army by the Japanese army.

Originally, Xiaolizhuang was garrisoned by Japanese troops, probably a squadron of devils, less than 200 troops. But there is no one man to open up, enough to resist the attack of one division of enemy troops.

And Abe Jiro's pursuit force pursued the new regiment, and if it was not possible to cripple Abe Jiro's troops, the danger of the new regiment could not be removed. What's more, at this time, the new regiment was replenished in time to annihilate the pursuing Japanese troops, and the troops' food, grass and ammunition could be replenished.

After all, the little devil's army is still very rich at this time.

With Li Yunlong's order, the new regiment of less than 1,000 troops threw off their feet and accelerated the march to Xiaoli Zhuang in Hengshan.

At this time, Abe Jiro had already joined the remnants of the Sakata Wing with less than 600 Japanese troops, plus about 4,000 Japanese troops from the 15th Brigade and 16th Wing of the 31st Division of the Japanese Army, a total of more than 4,600 Japanese troops chased after the retreat route of the new regiment.

"Report to the brigade commander, the new regiment of China has rushed to the vicinity of Xiaolizhuang in Hengshan! Estimated two minutes away! "On the way to pursue, the devil of the Japanese reconnaissance team who rode a war horse to pursue the new regiment first came back, and a salute like Abe Jiro reported.

Abe Jiro suddenly frowned and waved his hand, "Yoxi, bring the map!" When he opened the map, Jiro's face was not good.

"It's not good, Xiao Li Zhuang, do we have Imperial soldiers stationed in a squadron? Does that squadron have a radio station where they can be reached? Abe Jiro suddenly shouted to Taro Miyamoto beside him in a somewhat hurried tone.

Miyamoto Taro suddenly stepped forward, nodded and said, "Report to the brigade commander, Xiao Li Zhuang is garrisoned by an imperial squadron, which belongs to our Sakata United. The squadron has no radio to contact! ’。

"Nani? It's not good, the new regiment retreated here, and it must know that Xiao Lizhuang was the main road to retreat to the deep mountains of Heng Mountain, and it was the closest distance. Baga Ya Road, hurry up, order all departments, speed up, and be sure to catch up with the new group. Don't let them retreat to the depths of Mount Heng. Otherwise, with the guerrilla tactics of the Eighth Route Army, we would not be able to encircle and annihilate the new regiment! Abe Jiro ordered fiercely, and he saw the importance of Xiao Li Zhuang at a glance.

At this time, Abe Jiro knew that a squadron of Japanese troops suddenly encountered a strong attack by the new regiment, and perhaps could not stop the sudden attack of the new regiment.

"Hayi, brigade commander!" Taro Miyamoto hurriedly responded, and immediately went to convey Abe Jiro's order.

And just when Abe Jiro hurriedly jumped to his feet and ordered the main force of the Japanese army to speed up the pursuit, the main force of the new regiment at this time had already entered the small Lizhuang village, which was not far from the west of Hengshan, and was hidden less than 200 meters outside the village of Xiaolizhuang, which was close to one of the entrances to the mountain west of the Hengshan Mountain.

Arriving here, Li Yunlong quickly beckoned Zhang Dabiao to send a reconnaissance team to investigate Xiao Li Zhuang, and soon the information came back, after all, Xiao Li Zhuang can be seen at a glance, and when he is close to the village, he can use the cornfield outside the village to carry out covert reconnaissance.

"Regiment commander, the reconnaissance is clear, we found a fellow who is still in the village, according to the villager, there is a Japanese squadron in the village, more than 200 devils. However, the devils seem to have withdrawn, and now there are less than five or six devils left in Xiao Li Village! It should have stayed and waited for the large Japanese troops nearby! Which devil unit is waiting for, the fellows don't know! The captain of the reconnaissance squad of the new regiment came back and reported to Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong nodded, waved his hand to let the captain of the reconnaissance team go down to rest, and immediately looked at Xiao Li Zhuang not far away. With a wave of his hand, he sneered and said, "Made, take care of him." Now there are only five or six devils in Xiao Li Zhuang, brothers, on! ’。

When Zhang Dabiao saw Li Yunlong's gesture, he immediately beckoned the soldiers of the new regiment to quickly attack the village, and the five or six devils were quickly killed by three strikes and five divisions.

"Commander, what should I do now? The devil's main force is less than two minutes away! Shall we hurry into the mountains? Zhang Dabiao said.

Li Yunlong shook his head and said, "No, the road into the mountain is too dangerous." If we don't stop the Japanese army here, we will inevitably be chased and entangled by little devils! The main force of the regiment is bound to still not be able to go, not to mention that now we still have more than 200 brothers who are lightly and seriously injured, if we go like this, we will not be able to go! Duan Peng! ”。

"Captain!" Li Yunlong's guard captain Duan Peng stepped forward and stood up to Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong said to Duan Peng: "Your kid took a brother from the company, and took the injured brother into the mountain first. Act now! The rest of the brothers who were not injured and still had combat effectiveness were all left in Xiaolizhuang, and Lao Tzu had to fight with Abe Jiro, at least to block the main force pursued by the Japanese army for at least half an hour before we could evacuate! ’。

"Yes, Commander, I understand!" Duan Peng nodded, but without the slightest hesitation, he immediately turned around and left.

Zhang Dabiao said worriedly: "Regiment commander, our brothers with combat effectiveness are now less than seven hundred people, and there are at least more than four thousand devils chasing our little devils, and the three-to-one force ratio is too dangerous!" ”。

"If you don't fight a blocking battle, the brothers won't be able to leave. Most of the Japanese troops under Jiro Abe were Japanese soldiers who came out of Kyushu Island in Wakoku, and the jungle pursuit was not very advantageous for these devils. Therefore, it is necessary to distance itself from Abe Jiro's main force, and it is necessary to fight a blocking battle in Xiaolizhuang! Go and prepare, order the brothers to dig trenches and prepare to stop the Japanese army! Li Yunlong's gloomy face looked bad and said.

"Yes, Captain!" The commander of the first battalion, Zhang Dabiao, nodded helplessly and said, what Li Yunlong said is also good, and he can only do this.
