The artillery position was attacked, and the enemy was still a military engineering team, which made Yamazaki Yusuke thunderous, and at the same time did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly ordered the troops to quickly support the artillery position.

In order to support the artillery position, Yamazaki Yusuke sent out all the reserves, and the little devils who attacked Hengshui were somewhat affected.

At this time, the Hengshui defenders had been defeated and retreated by the little devils, and in order to boost morale, Zhao Jinglin even rushed to the forward position in person to command the battle.

However, the devil's attack was too fierce, and the defenders couldn't resist it at all, Zhao Jinglin was angry and shot several soldiers who were the first to escape, but the effect was not obvious.

Just when Zhao Jinglin was anxious, the sound of gunfire from the rear of the Japanese army attracted Zhao Jinglin's attention, Zhao Jinglin hurriedly raised the telescope and looked into the distance, but because the distance was too far, he couldn't see the situation on the side of the artillery position clearly, but one thing was certain, that is, there was a battle going on there, and the battle was very fierce.

Zhao Jinglin was overjoyed, and hurriedly shouted: "Brothers! Our reinforcements have arrived, hold me back! Persistence is victory, beat the little devil to me. ”

At this time, the soldiers on the battlefield also discovered the situation in the distance, and when they learned that the reinforcements had arrived, the morale of the soldiers was greatly boosted, and some of the soldiers who had wanted to escape also stopped at this time, and the reinforcements made them see the hope of victory.

Under the command of Zhao Jinglin, the soldiers stopped one after another, lying in the trench and shooting desperately at the little devil, and for a while the gunfire was loud, and the dense bullets shrouded the little devil like splashing water.

In fact, these warriors all know in their hearts that if they don't block the devil's attack, when the little devil enters the city, they will all have to die, and they know the cruelty of the little devil better than anyone else, and at this time, the soldiers can only fight hard and fight! Maybe there's a way to live, or else it's a dead end.

Under the stubborn resistance of the Chinese army, the offensive of the little devils was obviously contained, and the battle became more and more intense.

Yamazaki Kesuke observed the situation on the battlefield and knew that with the current situation, it was impossible to attack Hengshui, because all the reserves in the north had been dispatched, and it would be useless to continue like this.

In desperation, Yamazaki Yusuke could only order a retreat, at this time the little devils were besieging Hengshui on all sides, but the north was the main direction of attack, and the other three sides were feints. Yamazaki Yusuke originally hoped for a breakthrough in the other three directions, but as soon as the troops in the north withdrew, the little devils in the other three directions also stopped their attacks one after another.

First, because they were also met with stubborn resistance from the defenders in the city, and secondly, the task they received was originally a feint, but now that the main attack has been withdrawn, what are they still fighting!

However, Yamazaki Yusuke doesn't care about this, Hengshui City has been surrounded by them, and Yamazaki Yusuke is not worried that they will escape, Yamazaki Yusuke is now more concerned about his artillery position, once the artillery position is destroyed, the little devil is equivalent to losing a claw.

Liu Hong led the troops to rush all the way to kill, although the little devil desperately intercepted, but he couldn't stop the fierce attack of the martial arts team at all, and he was beaten and retreated, with heavy casualties.

At a distance of about three miles, the soldiers rushed all the way to kill, and seeing that they were only one hundred and eighty meters away from the devil's artillery position, the soldiers were even more demoralized and excited.

At this moment, Liu Hong suddenly shouted loudly: "Stop the attack, the whole army retreats!" Fast~! ”

Zhou Wenxuan was even more beside Liu Hong, and after hearing Liu Hong's retreat order, he asked unwillingly: "Captain, it's about to hit the devil's artillery position, wouldn't it be a pity to retreat now." ”

"You see that the reinforcements of the devils from the south have arrived, and now they will not withdraw? Don't even think about withdrawing! Evacuate! Liu Hong ordered loudly.

Zhou Wenxuan raised his head and glanced to the south, only to see a large number of little devils in the distance rushing towards this side, Zhou Wenxuan's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly shouted together: "Retreat~!" The whole army retreats! Fast! ”

The soldiers were excited when they heard the order to retreat, and they were inevitably a little unwilling, but as a soldier, it was their duty to obey the order.

No matter how unwilling they were, the soldiers could only obey orders, so under the command of Liu Hong, the troops began to alternately cover the rapid retreat.

Seeing the Eighth Route Army receding like a low tide, the little devils on the artillery position couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, and finally picked up a small life.

At this time, the little devils guarding the artillery position have suffered heavy casualties, and even the artillery has joined the battle, but they still can't resist the offensive of the martial arts team.

At this time, the little devils who came to support from a distance saw that the Eighth Route Army had begun to retreat, and one of the devils, Shaozuo, immediately brandished his command knife and roared loudly: "The Eighth Route Army wants to escape, you must not let them go, chase me!" Kill and give~! ”

The murderous little devils let out a roar one after another, followed the devil Shaozuo, and chased after him violently.

The martial arts team began to retreat according to the original plan, Zhao Lei led a team of people to protect the artillery team from the front, and Liu Hong and Zhou Wenxuan took the rest of the people to take charge of the rear, fighting and retreating.

The little devils who were embarrassed and angry were like mad dogs, chasing after them, and the little devils patrolling and guarding the surroundings also surrounded from all directions to chase and intercept the martial arts team.

Although it was impossible for these stragglers to defeat the martial arts team, they effectively delayed the speed of the martial arts team, making the little devils chasing behind get closer and closer.

While retreating quickly, Liu Hong glanced back from time to time, and saw that a little devil officer in the distance was very active, rushing to the front, constantly waving the command knife, and howling twice from time to time.

Liu Hong saw the little devil, raised the sniper rifle in his hand, directly locked on the arrogant guy, decisively pulled the trigger, and a crisp gunshot rang out immediately, and the blazing bullets flew quickly towards the little devil.

"Poof~!" With a muffled sound, a red blood mist rose in the air, and the little devil snorted, fell to the ground, and died on the spot.

However, the little devils seemed to be crazy, and only killing one devil officer could not stop them at all, and the remaining little devils continued to chase after them without hesitation.

While retreating, Liu Hong quickly pulled the bolt of the gun, and then shouted loudly: "Brothers! Evacuate~! Hurry up! ”
