Zhao Wen had a calm face, wrinkling his brows, and his mind was already in a mess.

The news came as a surprise.

Before the war, he thought of everything, but he didn't expect that the Laiyuan garrison would go out of the city to respond.

During the period when the troops besieged Laiyuan City, they tried every means to force the Japanese puppet army out, and then slowly consumed them with guerrilla warfare.

But the Japanese puppet army just wasn't fooled, and they couldn't come out of Laiyuan City.

After a long time, Zhao Wen naturally thought that the little devils in the city would not take the initiative to go out of the city, and when he thought about dealing with the baggage team, he naturally ignored them.

But I didn't expect the devil to do the opposite, and gave himself such a trick, they who have been shrinking turtles not only came out, but also shot a thousand people.

The analysis of the three company commanders was very correct.

The receiving troops from Laiyuan City and the remaining escort troops of the baggage brigade had a total strength of more than 1,000 people.

There are only three infantry companies that can be assembled immediately around him, less than 500 people, and they are definitely not their opponents in a hurry, and the possibility of pulling out their teeth and eating the baggage team under the heavy protection of the Japanese puppet army is almost zero.

Thinking of this, Zhao Wen's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

A few minutes later, he ordered with a helpless face: "Send a telegram to the regiment headquarters immediately, report the battle situation truthfully, we have too many devils to deal with, there is no way to eat the baggage team, destroy the ammunition they escorted, and ask for punishment." ”

At the headquarters of the garrison regiment, Hong Linfeng was the first to see the telegram sent by Zhao Wen, and then his brows were twisted.

"Commander, the devil has calculated too well, and the whole response operation can be called seamless."

"Under the cover of the aircraft, the receiving troops will definitely be able to meet up with the baggage team on time. Then the plane withdrew from the battlefield, received the troops to protect the baggage team, and marched all the way back to Laiyuan City. ”

"Two and a half hours ahead, there were planes staring at the sky, and Zhao Wen had no way to gather troops, so he could only fight with the devils and use guerrilla warfare to deal with them."

"In the second half of the two and a half hours, although there is no threat from aircraft, the time is too short, and Zhao Wen does not have many troops in his hands, so he will definitely not be able to stop the soldiers of the puppet army for more than a thousand days in a hurry, and in the end he can only watch them kill back to Laiyuan."

Li Hao's face was also very unsightly at first, but he quickly regained his composure, and then became more and more relaxed, looking at Hong Linfeng and replied: "Chief of Staff, this task is not as complicated as you imagined. ”

"You and Zhao Wen have both gotten into a dead end."

"My order to Zhao Wen is to destroy the weapons and ammunition escorted by the baggage team and prevent them from entering Laiyuan City. He was not asked to eliminate the baggage squad. ”

Hong Linfeng's brows continued to wrinkle, and he asked with a puzzled expression: "Commander, is there a difference here?" ”

"The ammunition is in the hands of the baggage team, and there are a large number of Japanese puppet troops next to it to escort, if you don't destroy them, how can you destroy them?"

Li Hao had already known it in his chest, and replied confidently: "We can use cannons!" ”

"As long as the battlefield is selected well and all kinds of artillery are properly arranged, it will definitely be able to bypass the escort troops and directly destroy the ammunition escorted by the baggage team with shells."

"Send a telegram back to Zhao Wen immediately and let him fight like this!"

After sending the telegram to the regiment headquarters asking for punishment, Zhao Wen was not idle, and continued to rack his brains to think of a solution.

Even if there was only a 1 in 10,000 chance, he didn't want to let it go.

"Battalion commander, the regimental headquarters called back!" The communications squad leader hurriedly ran over and handed over a telegram full of telegrams.

Zhao Wen looked at it, his wrinkled brows stretched, and a smile began to appear on his tense face.

Putting away the telegram, he sighed with emotion: "The regiment commander is right, I have entered a dead end." ”

"If we don't kill the Japanese puppet army escort troops, we can still destroy the ammunition escorted by the baggage team."

"The communication squad is assembled, and I want to assign tasks to each company and platoon."

On the highway six kilometers away from Laiyuan City, more than 1,000 puppet troops, holding torches, looked like a fire dragon from a distance, killing Laiyuan City.

Nakamura Shaoza walked in the middle of the line, glancing at his watch from time to time, very anxious.

There is also a mountain pass two kilometers ahead, after that, the next three kilometers are plains, and you can see Laiyuan City at a glance.

Even if the Eighth Route Army kills it, the flat terrain is very beneficial to itself, and it is easy to break through the interception of the Eighth Route Army and enter Laiyuan City.

Thinking of this, Nakamura Shaoza immediately ordered: "The speed of the troops' march should be accelerated!" Pass the mountain pass ahead as soon as possible, and then we will be safe. ”

"Da Da Da ......"

Less than ten minutes after the order was given, the familiar sound of machine-gun fire rang out, and it was at the location of the mountain pass, and Nakamura Shaosa's dream of passing through the mountain pass quickly was instantly shattered.

Quickly raised the binoculars and looked at the mountain pass.

Under the darkness of night, he couldn't see very clearly.

But the sound of gunfire from the battlefield still gave him a rough idea of the situation: the forward troops were launching an assault on the mountain pass......

"Dada...... Horn Horn ......"

An even more muffled strafing sound reached Nakamura's ears, and the light machine gun strafing sound was denser than before, mixed with a large number of rifle fire.

Nakamura Shaoza's serious face slowly flashed a solemnity: "The Eighth Route Army has arranged at least one infantry company in the mountain pass, and it is also equipped with heavy machine guns. ”

"The forward troops do not have counterweight weapons, and they are certainly not opponents!"

Less than five minutes after he finished speaking, a military cao ran over, still covered in blood.

"Sir, the forward troops failed to assault the mountain pass, losing more than thirty imperial troops."

"The pass must be broken through as soon as possible." Nakamura Shaosa didn't give Juncao a chance to continue, and ordered in a deep voice.

"The longer we delay here, the more dangerous it becomes, and the more likely it is to be attacked."

"Honda squadron, the third battalion of the Imperial Allied Army, assault together!"

"Other units were armed with light and heavy machine guns, grenadiers, mortars, all firing and providing fire cover for the assault troops.

The receiving force consisted of only two infantry squadrons, and the sortie was very short, and in order to ensure the speed of the march, they carried only four mortars and four heavy machine guns.

Although it was a little less, Nakamura Shaosa was very confident that these heavy firepower were enough to suppress an infantry company of the Eighth Route Army.

Shells, heavy machine gun bullets, don't want money like flying to the mountain pass.

In less than five minutes, the pass was blown up with smoke and flames.

For more than 400 days, the puppet army held rifles and light machine guns, and launched a surprise attack on the mountain pass like a pack of wolves.

Two hundred meters, there was no movement in the pass.

One hundred and fifty meters, there was still no movement in the pass.

One hundred meters, the pass has not moved......

The solemn expression on Nakamura Shosa's face slowly became relaxed.

As long as the troops rushed forward another fifty meters, even if there was still the Eighth Route Army in the mountain pass, they would not be able to return to the sky.

More than 100 imperial troops and more than 300 imperial troops can completely use the superiority of troops to suppress the Eighth Route Army and annihilate them completely.
