Hearing Zhao Caizhu's suggestion, Hu Guoshan frowned, and only then did he realize that he should not be angry, but find a way to solve the problem as soon as possible.

"Why do you want to tell the old horse?" Hu Guoshan asked.

"One group is an hour later than we retreated, and they are closer to the little devil than us, once the little devil learns the news of our retreat, he will inevitably pounce on the group with all his might, and the group will be entangled......"

"Signal soldier, go to the first regiment immediately, tell the commander of the horse that the news of the retreat may leak, let the first regiment be careful!" Before Zhao Caizhu could finish speaking, Hu Guoshan immediately shouted to a soldier beside him.

After waiting for the signal soldiers to leave, Hu Guoshan said to Ma Wanzhong: "Leave three battalions for me, you and your troops will immediately withdraw to the garrison, and be careful not to escape any soldiers when they are still on the road." ”

Zhao Caizhu was stunned, he didn't expect Hu Guoshan to decide on the battle plan so quickly, and he hadn't discussed it with him yet.

Hu Guoshan stepped forward and patted Zhao Caizhu on the shoulder and continued: "Since there is a problem with our three regiments, of course our three regiments must be responsible, otherwise after returning to the station, if we are not scolded to death by Brother Fan, we will also give Lao Ma's broken mouth for several years." ”

Although Hu Guoshan and Ma Wanzhong often work against each other after meeting, but in terms of the overall situation, the two have always cooperated with each other, this time a regiment may be in danger, Hu Guoshan will certainly not let it go, this is not only the third regiment out of two deserters, but also the independent 33rd Division Everyone is brothers.

In this way, Hu Guoshan and Zhao Caizhu parted ways, one continued to walk back with a large army, and the other began to move north with three battalions of less than a thousand people.

The roads after the rain were particularly muddy, and the retreat of the troops was slow, but the same little devils would drop a lot in terms of speed, including the news of the retreat of the 33rd Independent Division.

The Japanese were already lying in drowning trenches, waiting for dawn to continue their assault on the Chinese troops in front of them.

However, the arrival of the **** people broke this silent waiting. These two people are the two soldiers who escaped from the Third Regiment, and they have already known the deployment of the surrounding Japanese troops in the past few days, so they did not choose to go north to Yangquan after escaping from the Third Regiment, but chose the Japanese army closest to them.

The two men approached the Japanese army west of Xiyang County on the road that was destroyed after heavy rain, which was the closest Japanese army, and they needed to report to them the retreat of the 33rd Independent Division, even though they were Chinese, but they chose to be the lackeys of the Japanese.

After the Japanese captured the two men and confirmed that they did not have any lethal weapons on them, they went to meet the commander of the Japanese army.

When the tired Japanese commander learned of the retreat of the 33rd Independent Division, of course, he first doubted it, and then analyzed whether the Chinese army deliberately tricked them into it, and he did not choose to report the situation to his superiors at the first time, but chose to send scouts to immediately reconnoiter the movements of the Chinese army.

After seeing a series of orders from the Japanese commander, the two spies just shook their heads helplessly, if they were the superiors of this little devil, they would definitely pull this little devil out and shoot him a thousand times, such important information, you didn't even report it to your superiors, and immediately sent troops to pursue, and even reconnoitred first. Unfortunately, they are only spies, and they are also spies with Chinese identity, and the little devils have no reason to be convinced of the information they sent.

The little devil's scout was apparently much better than the two spies in terms of physical strength and stamina, and after an hour they confirmed that Xiyang County was an empty city. The commander of the little devil realized that he had really missed the fighter, but of course he would not leave this important handle behind. So he ruthlessly arranged for the two spies to be killed, and then made them the first to discover the retreat of the independent 33rd Division.

The two spies who managed to escape never thought that the little devil would kill them like this, but none of this mattered anymore.

The important thing is that the little devils all know that the 33rd Independent Division is already retreating, and they must entangle the Chinese army, otherwise what has happened in the past few days will be a great shame for them, and the face of the Imperial Japanese Army will be lost on the land of Jindong.

The little devil discarded his tanks, armored vehicles, trucks, and heavy weapons, and only the infantry, and ran forward in the mud, but this running speed was really no different from walking, and if he changed to walking, it would be no different from climbing.

In order to buy time, the little devils abandoned all their heavy weapons and equipment, but their speed did not increase significantly. But you can't use a truck at this time, otherwise even the snails will be faster than them.

I have to say that on the issue of face, the little devils will really work hard, in order to maintain the dignity of their great Japanese empire, in order to eliminate this Chinese army, they showed the spirit of not being afraid of hardship, not afraid of tiredness, not afraid of sacrifice, on such a complicated road, many Japanese soldiers fell, and then got up, at this time from a distance it really looks like a mud monkey on the march, there is no marching army, just follow the people in front of them are not upright.

Obviously, the communication troops sent by the third regiment were also tormented by the muddy road conditions, and even Hu Guoshan's support slowed down a lot.

At this time, everyone is fighting for time, fighting for speed, one group is fighting for the time of entering the mountain, the little devil is fighting to catch up with the speed of the previous group, and the third group is fighting with the little devil for speed.

Liao Fan in the command headquarters is raising his head, looking at the starry sky in the distance, the sky after the rain has become very bright, even at night, he can see a long distance, he has learned from all directions that the troops are retreating, and the heart that was originally forced by Okamura Ningji to hang his heart is also slightly relaxed, as long as they retreat to the mountains, their operation will be successful.

The reinforcements sent by Okamura Ningci, more precisely, should be sent to encircle and suppress the troops of the 33rd Independent Division, as long as they enter Shanxi, there is no road for them to use, whether it is logistics materials or the march of the troops, it will inevitably be greatly affected, this is the first road arranged by Liao Fan for Gangcun Ningci, with the arrival of the rainy season in Shanxi, plus the destruction of the road, as much as possible to delay the speed of the little devil's attack.

But just when the 33rd Independent Division completed its final plan in Jindong, the number of Japanese troops assembled in Yangquan had reached 50,000, and these 50,000 indices were added to the troops sent by Gangcun Ningci, and the little devils would have 150,000 people.

The first regiment was still withdrawing towards the Shimen area, and the little devils were still chasing them, because of the road and the rain, the speed of both sides was very slow, not even half of the usual marching speed. However, the Japanese commander who first learned the news of the retreat of the 33rd Independent Division did not report the news to his superiors, but first arranged for soldiers to reconnoitre, and bought more than an hour for both the first and third regiments.

It is said that after a battle, the attacking troops will be more tired than the defensive, but the little devil obviously proved this view wrong, and the Japanese army, who abandoned all kinds of heavy weapons and baggage, was obviously much faster than a group of retreats, especially for the sake of their face.

Just when there was still an hour or so away from the stone gate, the little devil who was covered in mud and couldn't see clearly at all finally caught up with a group of troops behind the palace.

When a group of soldiers fought with a group of monsters that suddenly appeared in the night, they were first frightened, even the veteran soldiers with rich combat experience became very weak in their sense of combat, after all, their current China is still in an ignorant and backward era, and they still believe in the charm and ghost.

As a result, within five minutes of the battle, the two battalions of a regiment responsible for the rear of the palace were actually defeated by a squadron of little devils, and these little devils were even more tired than the Chinese army behind the palace.

Hearing that the troops behind his palace were in chaos, Ma Wanzhong was furious, and at the critical time of retreat, what kind of moth was this. After listening to the soldiers' report that they encountered monsters, Ma Wanzhong roared even more angrily, nonsense!

"The second battalion comes with me, Lao Tzu doesn't believe that he really fucking meets me to blame, even if he encounters a monster, Lao Tzu has to catch one to see what it looks like!"

Ma Wanzhong has been in the army for many years, fighting from the north to the south, from the east to the west, he has never seen any strange things, and he has seen monsters just like this.

Under the leadership of the regiment commander, the soldiers of the second regiment followed Ma Wanzhong's pace to support the troops of the palace, although the troops of the palace retreated, but they were still fighting and retreating, but the will to resist was indeed much weaker than when resisting in the county town of Pingding.

"Bang Bang Bang"

The gunshots were chaotic and chaotic, but as a soldier, he could definitely tell that the weapon used by the other party was a three-eight big cover.

Ma Wanzhong, who rushed to support, immediately judged from the sound of the gunfire that this was a little devil, but from the light of the explosion, he saw that these people were indeed strange, not like normal people, could this really be a monster cultivated by a little devil, but this monster could shoot, it was too incredible.

"I don't believe that these monsters can resist the guns, so give me a hard beating."

"Da Da Da"

The light machine gun that had just been set up shot with a long shot knocked down the two little devils who rushed to the front.

Ma Wanzhong saw the two monsters that were killed, and sneered: "When did the little devil become so bored and engage in this trick." Of course Ma Wanzhong didn't know that these little devils fell into the mud halfway and fell like this, they also wanted to clean themselves up, and the handsome ones dressed up would attack the group again, at least this could protect the face of their Great Japanese Empire, but after all, this is an urgent combat situation, and they can't be like a big girl, apply some rouge, and then look in the mirror, and finally attack, so that the daylilies are cold.

With the addition of a battalion, the fighters obviously had the confidence to no longer retreat blindly, but launched a counterattack against the monsters they were chasing.
