Chapter 359: Wei County Defenders
A few minutes later, when Li Yunlong and the rest of the men and horses caught up, the battle was already over.
"Commander, the capital is killed! This is a small group of Japanese troops who have gone south from Feihu Pass to investigate the situation, and they have been annihilated by our attack on both sides. A total of 31 Japanese soldiers were annihilated, including the Japanese squad leader Makino Takezo and others stationed at Flying Fox's Mouth! Wei Dayong reported after saluting Li Yunlong.
Li Yunlong nodded, this battle was not what he expected.
At this time, Duan Peng also rushed to Li Yunlong, stood up and saluted, and then reported, "Commander, the devils of the Flying Fox Pass have been killed by our department. The only most important commanding heights in the Flying Fox Pass occupied by it, Xiaoling Saddle, is already under our control, and the remaining Japanese troops on its Xiaoling Saddle have been killed by our special combat team! Countless weapons and ammunition have been captured! Please instruct the regimental commander! ”。
"Okay, you kid did a good job! Monk, gather the troops, immediately pass through the Flying Fox Pass, and we continue to rush to Wei County, trying to capture Wei County when Yoshio Shinozuka does not react. Zhao Gang and the others had already sent a force to move to the east side of Hengshan Mountain and arrived near the west of Guangling City. We're going to hurry! Li Yunlong observed the battlefield, and then waved his hand and said solemnly.
In the final analysis, at this time, Li Yunlong and Duan Peng were still in the pursuit of the Japanese army. At this time, after Laiyuan, the battle of Flying Fox Pass, Shinozuka Yoshio learned that his side had retreated north, and he was bound to mobilize heavy troops to pursue and encircle and suppress, and the situation was still not optimistic.
At this time, it is not careless.
Duan Peng, Wei Dayong and others nodded one after another, and immediately scattered to assemble the team, and with Li Yunlong's retreat, the troops galloped and retreated in the direction of Feihukou.
At this time, just as Li Yunlong and the others were galloping along the mountain road to the Flying Fox Pass, several Japanese fighters suddenly rumbled in the sky.
I saw these Japanese fighters in the sky, and I saw Li Yunlong and others galloping north on the mountain road below.
"Captain, it seems to be the Chinese army! What to do? I seem to see the soldiers of the Empire lying on the ground, as if they have just experienced a battle! In the back compartment of a long Japanese plane, the Japanese pilot said to the devil commander sitting in the cockpit in front.
Yuichiro Motegi, the commander of the devil's long plane, had a solemn look in his eyes, took out his binoculars and looked down at the sky, and immediately said solemnly, "Report to the headquarters immediately, the Eighth Route Army troops have been found in the direction of the Flying Fox Pass!" There were more than 100 people on visual observation, and in addition, it was found that Xiaolingan, the commanding heights of Feihukou, had been captured by the Eighth Route Army. Our fighters do not have aerial bombs, and the low-altitude strafing attacks of aviation machine guns are ineffective! ”。
"Hayi, sir!" The devil pilot in the rear cabin of the Japanese fighter captain was also a pilot, and immediately sent a report to the headquarters of the Japanese First Army in the direction of Taiyuan City through a small radio.
Then, the devil fighter knew that there were not many machine gun bullets, and even low-flying strafing would not help, so he could only helplessly shake the wings of the plane and return home.
On the ground, Li Yunlong and others, who were galloping north, also came out from the places on both sides of the mountain road to avoid air raids.
"Commander, it looks like our whereabouts have been exposed! The little devil actually sent out the fighter plane so quickly, it seems that this is the devil's combat reconnaissance plane! After the devil fighter flew away, Duan Peng said to Li Yunlong solemnly.
Li Yunlong sneered and said, "Special mother, find out!" We now continue to retreat north, through the Flying Fox Pass, the troops hurriedly march to Wei County to attack the city! According to the urgent telegram sent by Zhao Gang, the Japanese garrison in Wei County was no more than a squadron of devils, and there were a small number of puppet troops stationed there. Although it is likely that the enemy army in Wei County is ready for battle at this time, it should not be too difficult for us to attack the battle of Wei County! Our individual firepower is already stronger than that of two devil soldiers. ”。
"Regiment Commander, then we will continue to attack Wei County?" Wei Dayong said.
Li Yunlong said, "Yes, although there are not many devils in Wei County, the strategic location of Wei County is very important. It is the only way for us to return to the Hengshan base. Moreover, Wei County is adjacent to Guangling in the west, Feihukou and Laiyuan in the south, Xuanhua and other places in the north, and the strategic location is still very important! What's more, we have to break Shinozuka Yoshio's plan to besiege the Hengshan base area with heavy troops, and Guangling will take it. And if you want to take Guangling, Wei County on the east side of it will also be taken sooner or later! ”。
"Commander, understood!" Wei Dayong and others responded one after another.
Soon, the troops continued to turn over their horses and continued to gallop forward, quickly advancing in the direction of Wei County through the Flying Fox Pass.
Taiyuan City, in the headquarters of the Japanese First Army, Yoshio Shinozuka and Taro Miyano were anxiously waiting for news from the Japanese pursuing troops.
"Pedaling !!" A rush of footsteps came from the telegraph room on the side of the headquarters.
A Japanese communications intelligence officer hurriedly rushed to the front of Yoshio Shinozuka, and immediately said urgently, "Report to Your Excellency Commander, the reconnaissance plane dispatched from Yangmingbao Airport has sent aerial reconnaissance information!" ”。
"Read!" Yoshio Shinozuka waved his hand with a gloomy face.
"Hayi, Your Excellency Commander! According to Yuichiro Motegi, the leader of the No. 3 Aviation Reconnaissance Squadron, the reconnaissance squadron flew over Laiyuan City and found that the city was filled with gunsmoke and that the battle had stopped. There is a Chinese army carrying the supplies of the emperor's arsenal in the city. Our air fighters strafed at low altitude and bombed the arsenal with a small number of aerial bombs, but they were unable to detonate the Laiyuan arsenal. It is speculated that the weapons and ammunition in the Laiyuan arsenal have been transported by the Chinese army! In addition, the reconnaissance squadron reconnoitred along the section of the Feihukou Mountain Road in Laiyuan, and found that a branch of the Zhina Army with a strength of more than 100 people was supported by war horses. Judging by this, it is likely to be a sneak attack on the troops of His Royal Highness Prince Zaihito of the Kanin Palace! My reconnaissance squadron is running out of aviation fuel and has returned! Shota Arai, an intelligence officer of the Communications Office of the First Army of the Japanese Army, reported with a solemn expression.
Yoshio Shinozuka waved his hand, indicating that he had heard. Then, in less than half a minute, there was a burst of rage!
"The defenders of Laiyuan are waste, waste, the waste of the empire!" Yoshio Shinozuka scolded, but hurried to the table where the map was placed at the headquarters with Taro Miyano.
Taro Miyano pointed to the huge map of Jin Province and its surroundings in the headquarters, pointed with a baton in his hand, and said, "Your Excellency, commander, according to the situation of the enemy troops detected by the reconnaissance plane from the air. The Shina army, which ambushed His Royal Highness Prince Zairen of Xianyuan Palace, may have fled to the direction of Laiyuan. And according to the reconnaissance results obtained by Yuichiro Motegi, the enemy cavalry unit that appeared on the road to the Flying Fox Pass Mountain may be the Eighth Route Army unit that ambushed His Royal Highness the Prince! Commander, humiliated advice, immediately order the defenders of Wei County to go south to intercept! ”。
