"It seems that the little devil has made a bloody investment!"

Hu Guoshan led the troops to take advantage of the fact that the little devil's attention was all on a group, and quietly sneaked into the vicinity of the battlefield, Hu Guoshan saw the situation on the battlefield clearly in the telescope, especially the little devil's kind of lifeless fighting, holding his head to hit a cannonball, Hu Guoshan has fought for so many years, and he has never seen a little devil use such a lifeless way of fighting.

"Commander, what should we do next?" The commander of the first battalion of the third regiment asked Hu Guoshan.

Hu Guoshan put down the binoculars and thought carefully for a while: "The little devil's support force has reached 4,000 people, and there should be a lot of reinforcements in the rear, so we must move quickly." ”

The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, not to mention the continuous arrival of reinforcements from the Japanese army, they must end the battle as soon as possible, otherwise the three battalions brought by Hu Guoshan may also be in danger of being surrounded by little devils.

"First battalion commander, the three companies under your command will fight separately in the direction where the little devil came, attack and disturb the devil, no matter what the situation is, retreat by yourself after half an hour, and then meet at the stone gate." Hu Guoshan began to give orders, and if it was delayed for one more minute now, the troops would be in danger for one minute.

"Second battalion commander, third battalion commander, now the main strength of the little devil has been attracted by the soldiers of the first regiment, and now the encirclement on the side of the little devil is weak, and this direction is our breakthrough."

The reinforcements rushed by the little devils were mainly used to block the attack of the first regiment on them and prevent the first regiment from rescuing the second battalion, so the encirclement on the flanks was relatively weak.

"Commander, you mean that we get as close to the side of the little devil as possible and then use a grenade to clear the way?" The second battalion commander asked.

Hu Guoshan smiled, then patted the shoulder of the second battalion commander and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes!" Let the fighters prepare grenades and blow up those dogs! ”

Under Hu Guoshan's arrangement, the main task of the first battalion was to harass the little devil's support troops, creating a false impression for the little devil, that is, the little devil's back road would be cut off at any time, and then Hu Guoshan took the remaining two battalions to quietly touch the little devil's black hand.

The ground that had rained was very wet, and the soldiers were crawling forward, covered with mud all over their bodies, but they strictly enforced the discipline of the battlefield, and no one felt uncomfortable, and little by little in the darkness approached the little devils.

Gradually, the soldiers from the three regiments came to support, and under the leadership of Hu Guoshan, they were still less than fifty meters away from the little devil.

Hu Guoshan made a gesture to the troops, and the soldiers all stopped, then took out their grenades, and did not pull the strings, but waited for Hu Guoshan's next gesture. Hu Guoshan made another gesture, and the soldiers all stood up and bent their waists, and began to move quickly towards the little devil, and hundreds of people moved forward as if they were one person, and they couldn't hear these hundreds of people moving on the battlefield at all.

In just a dozen seconds, the fighters rushed forward for more than thirty meters, and at this time they didn't have to wait for anyone's order at all, pulled the string and threw bombs, and the movements of hundreds of people were done in one go, and in an instant grenade rain fell from the sky.

The "boom boom" explosion shook the ground, and the soldiers lay on the ground, not daring to raise their heads, although they were more than ten meters away, so many grenades exploded, and they could also accidentally injure themselves.

The little devils didn't know when a force would come out of their rear, and what they didn't expect was that hundreds of grenades fell, and more than half of the little devils were killed and wounded, and they were simply unable to resist the attack of the three regiments and two battalions at such a close range.

After the explosion, the soldiers of the three regiments quickly got up from the ground, a distance of more than ten meters, and rushed to the little devil in just a few seconds, and the defeat was like a mountain, not to mention the little devil who had not yet reacted from the aftermath of the grenade explosion.

The violent explosion immediately attracted the attention of the soldiers of the second battalion in the encirclement, and Ma Wanzhong saw that the little devils on the flank were in a rout, of course he would not let go of such a good opportunity, and hurriedly led the troops to start moving to the flank.

"Old horse! This way! ”

Hu Guoshan shouted loudly, whether Ma Wanzhong could hear it or not, he only hoped to attract the attention of the surrounded troops and quickly move closer to them.

Ma Wanzhong led his troops to quickly rendezvous with Hu Guoshan.

"Old Ma, after our palace, you take the troops to withdraw first!" Hu Guoshan glanced at Ma Wanzhong, at this time he didn't have time to ridicule Ma Wanzhong, because the little devil who had just retreated had launched a charge at them again, and if he delayed for a second longer, he might be surrounded by the little devil again.

When Ma Wanzhong passed by Hu Guoshan's side, he just nodded at Hu Guoshan, did not speak, and quickly retreated with his troops.

Under the cover of darkness, the commanders of the three regiments and one battalion concentrated all their forces and launched a thunderous attack while the little devils in front of them were unprepared, and in just a few minutes, the soldiers of the three regiments and one battalion quickly divided into three companies to fight separately.

The little devil commander heard the dense gunfire coming from behind them, and then suddenly the gunfire came from all directions, thinking that the Chinese army had cut off their rear route, and he snored in his heart, and then immediately organized his troops to attack the Chinese troops behind them.

The soldiers of the three regiments and one battalion had already been divided into three companies to fight separately, and their maneuver speed was of course much faster than that of the tired little devils, who attacked them when they quickly disappeared into the night by virtue of their speed advantage, and the little devils and Ben could not find any targets.

Taking advantage of the fact that the little devil's troops did not form a new encirclement, Hu Guoshan and the others merged with the first regiment and the second battalion when they withdrew from the gap, and then rushed all the way to join the rest of the first regiment, and the combat effectiveness of the troops was greatly improved in an instant.

After driving away the soldiers of the three regiments and one battalion, the little devil did not intend to let go of the troops in front, and seeing the cooked ducks, it was impossible for them to fly away like this.

The battle continued, and the little devil only bit the retreating troops, and although the fighters on both sides were exhausted by this time, they were holding on. A regiment of soldiers is holding on, or they will die, and the little devils are holding on because of their bushido spirit and the dignity of the Great Japanese Empire.

There was no victory in this chase battle, whether it was a group or the little devils paid huge casualties, although the little devils caught up with a group by their will, but the little devils without heavy weapons suffered a big loss, plus the soldiers who caught up had already been exhausted by the mud road, so the casualties paid by the little devils were far greater than a group.

However, the addition of Liao Jundong with the artillery battalion finally broke the balance of this battle, Liao Jundong only brought mortars, but it was enough for this battle.

"Boom Boom"

The shells kept falling, and the artillery didn't need to fix the orientation at all, just fired the shells in that direction, and the dense artillery fire blocked the troops pursued by the little devils, and they couldn't continue the pursuit at all, otherwise they risked the annihilation of the whole army.

The night gradually calmed down, and no one knew how many little devils were killed in this battle, but they knew that the casualties of the little devils would definitely not be small.

At dawn, all the troops finally turned at the stone gate.

Hu Guoshan walked to Ma Wanzhong's side, handed him the kettle in his hand, and then took the opportunity to do it to Ma Wanzhong's side. Before Hu Guoshan could sit down, there was a sharp pain in his calf.

"Old horse, what are you doing!" Hu Guoshan stared at Ma Wanzhong and questioned him, just now Ma Wanzhong smashed his calf with a punch, and he broke out in a cold sweat from the pain.

Ma Wanzhong didn't even look at Hu Guoshan, and said in a hoarse voice: "This punch was fought for the brothers who fell on the retreat road. ”

Hu Guoshan was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the soldiers around him, and tried to sit next to Ma Wanzhong again. Hu Guoshan knew what happened last night, and he had a lot of responsibility with the three regiments, at least the news of the retreat must have leaked out from the two soldiers who fled.

"I see that you are in a bad mood, and I don't know as much as you!" Hu Guoshan picked up a stone on the ground and held it in his hand.

The two of them sat quietly like this, watching the sun rising in the east, and the sunlight shining through the water vapor of Taihang Mountain on the faces of the two people.

"Are you suffering any casualties?" Hu Guoshan didn't seem to be used to this quiet environment, so he spoke.

"There are no statistics, but there should be about 3,000 casualties." Ma Wanzhong's face was indifferent, and then he returned the kettle to Hu Guoshan.

Hu Guoshan threw the stone in his hand into the distance, and the kettle drank all the remaining water in the kettle.

"Our casualties are not small, although they are not counted, it is estimated that there are about 2,000 people, and I don't know how Xiao Lizi is doing, I heard that Xiao Lizi has captured a batch of war horses, and it is estimated that Xiao Lizi can form a cavalry regiment."

Hearing Hu Guoshan's words, Ma Wanzhong smiled helplessly, according to his judgment, although the second regiment fought fiercely this time, the casualties should not be small, but the second regiment should have more wounded and fewer soldiers killed in battle. And their regiment had more soldiers killed and much less wounded.

"What about last night's casualties?" Hu Guoshan's voice was so small that he could hardly hear his own voice, but he finally asked.

"The second battalion was surrounded, and the casualties were relatively large, and the casualties of the other battalions were okay. Thanks to the timely arrival of your reinforcements, otherwise the casualties of the second battalion would have been even greater. Although in a short period of time, Ma Wanzhong believes that the second battalion will not be eaten by the little devils, but as time increases, the casualties of the second battalion will inevitably increase.

"In the end, it's still my responsibility, and it took a long time after the two soldiers fled that the officers under my command reported that the company commander had been masturbated by me." Hu Guoshan was still a little uneasy in his heart, the Second Regiment killed nearly 200 soldiers and wounded more than 100 on the way to retreat, and the main responsibility for this was Hu Guoshan.

"I will review it with Brother Fan after I go back, but the spies of your group have been uprooted, but our three regiments are ......" Hu Guoshan began to worry when he thought of this.
