Chapter 159: Forcing the Enemy to Retreat (First Update)

Lei Jian said openly: "I have ordered the troops to hide the tanks and modified combat vehicles and prepare to participate in a new battle?" ”

"You say how to act next, Commander Lei Dai, you can give an order, my third regiment will follow you, and I didn't have a hard fight with the little devils in this battle, it should be said that the third regiment is the most sound regiment in the entire five detachments, and the soldiers and weapons are the most sound regiments, and this time we can't be asked to sit on the cold bench anymore." Duan Zhihong, deputy head of the Third Regiment, asked urgently.

Lei Jian ordered solemnly: "Order the three regiments and seven battalions to lie in ambush on the left flank high ground west of Yagezhuang, under the command of Deputy Commander Duan, to strike at the vanguard of the retreating Japanese army, exchange fire for fifteen minutes and retreat to Laojun Mountain, do a good job of responding to the retreat of the entire army, and block the Japanese army's trailing attack." ”

"The 9th Battalion of the 3rd Regiment was commanded by Political Commissar Qiao, ambushed in the woods on the dirt slope of the right flank road east of Yagezhuang, attacked the command organs of the Japanese army, did not fall in love with the battle, exchanged fire for 15 minutes and evacuated to Laojun Mountain, and joined up with the 7th Battalion of the 3rd Regiment."

"Order a regiment and a battalion, commanded by Zheng Tie, to hide in the village of Yagezhuang, and cooperate with the seventh and eighth battalions of the three regiments on the left and right flanks to carry out the most fierce fire strikes on the retreating Japanese army's middle road, and withdraw immediately once the main force of the Japanese army is found to be encircling Yagezhuang."

"Ordered Niu Dali and Wang Xiaoliang to follow the two tanks, and ordered Li Gang to lead the modified chariots, cooperate with the tanks, and attack the main force of the Japanese army to attack Laojun Mountain, annihilate and consume part of the enemy, force the devil to flee, and strike the enemy again on the way to the enemy's escape."

After Lei Jian finished the combat mission, he looked at the commanders at all levels gathered around the Eight Immortals table and asked: "Please ask the political commissar of the third regiment Qiao and the deputy head of Duan, as well as everyone, to make additions and amendments to the combat orders issued by Lei Jian, a half-haired child, I." ”

Commanders at all levels stood up in unison: "Resolutely carry out the orders issued by Commander Lei Dai on behalf of the detachment headquarters." ”

The units entered their positions one after another and prepared for battle.

Lei Jian said to Zhang Ping, the commander of the second company: "You immediately sort out the orders I issued, report to the detachment headquarters, and wait for the final order." ”

After a short time, the detachment headquarters called back: "Agree to the battle plan, don't fall in love with the battle, preserve your strength, take the initiative to attack, hurt the enemy and retreat to Songzhuang, and rendezvous with the main force." ”

Besides, the commander of the 13th Brigade of the Japanese Army in Songzhuang, the commander of the Shusuke Hoshino Brigade, was walking back and forth in a dilapidated house, when he suddenly stopped and shouted at the two captains of Kameda and Tokugawa: "Rice buckets, all rice buckets, the two wings were so embarrassed by the Tuba Road of the Fifth Detachment of the Shandong Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Army. ”

He saw that the captain of the mixed brigade, Taro Hashimoto, had a wound on his face, and scolded even more angrily: "Hashimoto, you stupid pig, two of your eight tanks were seized by the Dirt Eight Road, and two were destroyed, and your artillery position was hit by the Dirt Eight Road, and you lost three cannons, you, you bastard, you say, why is this?" ”

The chief of staff of the brigade, Yanagi Shibei Daisa, said: "Your Excellency, the failure of this battle was completely caused by the bastard known as the 'Thunder General' of the Eighth Road, who used a child's trick and an abnormal combat method to sneak attack the headquarters and base camp of the Imperial Army, disrupting the entire battle plan, we must catch this bastard and kill him to death." ”

General Shusuke Hoshino of the 13th Brigade of the Japanese Army, in the battle of Songzhuang, suffered heavy losses in his troops, and he had no intention of fighting again, so he ordered his troops to retreat.

The chief of staff of Yagyu Jubei ordered the Kameda Wing to be cut off, and the headquarters of the Mixed Brigade Escort Brigade was evacuated in advance, and the Tokugawa Wing set off immediately as the front team for the retreat.

The Japanese army withdrew from Songzhuang, when it came, it was violent, and the little devils on the way back were like frosted eggplants, scattered and spiritless.

At this time, Lei Jian stood on a house on a higher ground in Yagezhuang, looked at the west of the highway with a telescope, and suddenly set off a yellow dragon from the direction of Songzhuang, he smiled, and the 13th Brigade of the Japanese Army really began to evacuate.

He kept holding the binoculars and observed very carefully, and he wanted to verify whether there were any flaws and improprieties in the orders he gave to the troops from the trajectory of the devil's retreat.

After observing for a while, Lei Jian ran back to the command post, picked up the phone and said to Deputy Regiment Commander Duan who was ambushed on the left flank: "Old brother, the little devil has really started to retreat, your old brother must not fall in love with the battle, and retreat to Laojun Mountain immediately after completing the strike mission." ”

"Don't worry, Captain Leidai, I will resolutely carry out the orders of the little old brother." Now Duan Zhihong likes this witty, brave and decisive half-haired boy Lei Jian in his heart, and when he hears Lei Boy speak, he is very happy.

The vanguard of the devil drove over, and the combat staff officer next to Deputy Commander Duan said: "Deputy Regiment Commander, we have one battalion to deal with the vanguard of the 13th Brigade of the Japanese Army. ”

"Don't speak, the devil is coming up." Deputy Head Duan said in a low voice.

The Japanese Tokugawa Wing was the vanguard of the Japanese army's retreat, and his wing suffered heavy losses in this battle, and at this time the retreat had to be the vanguard of the main force.

The Tokugawa Wing Commander was thinking of this, when suddenly the vanguard was hit by heavy fire from the south of the road, and he immediately ordered his troops to lie down in the hidden places of the road ditches and counterattack with firepower.

The chief of staff of the wing said to Tokugawa Daisa: "Tokugawa-kun, judging from the firepower, this is a small force of the Dirt Eight Road, as long as the troops launch a fierce attack, they will definitely be destroyed, and this will also boost morale." ”

The Tokugawa Wing Commander, frightened by the legendary 'Thunder Shogun' in the cunning Tsuchihachi Road, shook his head and just wanted to order a squadron to attack the Dohachi Road position in the south of the road to cover the rapid retreat of the large army, when he received a strict order from the brigade commander and ordered the Tokugawa Wing to destroy this Tokuhachi Army.

The little devils of a wing quickly formed a battle formation and launched a fierce attack on the positions of the three regiments and seven battalions, and the commander of the Tokugawa wing personally commanded and ordered the troops to encircle the Tubalu position and annihilate it in one fell swoop.

The structure of the three regiments and seven battalions is quite sound, but the strength of one battalion, even if it is supplemented with Japanese-style equipment, if you want to engage a Japanese wing with rich combat experience, there is no doubt that victory or defeat will only appear in a short time.

Deputy Regiment Commander Duan saw that the little devil had carried out a powerful firepower attack on his position, quickly surrounded it, and was about to form an encirclement momentum, he looked at his watch, there were still five minutes before the time to retreat, and five minutes on a normal occasion would pass in the blink of an eye, but at this time, it was on the battlefield of swords and swords, and every minute and every second could be in danger of annihilation.

As soon as the commander of the seventh battalion saw that the little devil was attacking the position and encircling it, he said firmly to Deputy Commander Duan: "Deputy Commander, you leave me a platoon to hold the position, cover you and lead the troops to evacuate quickly, go quickly." ”

"You bastard, how could I do that? Don't earn it anymore, I must carry out the orders given by the Thunder Boy. ”

Just when there were three minutes left, seeing that the little devils were about to surround the three regiments and one battalion, at this ten dangerous moments, Lei Jian ordered Zheng Tie, who was hidden in the west of the village, to lead a regiment, a battalion and two companies, and immediately reinforced the three regiments and seven battalions, tore open the mouth of the devil's encirclement, and covered the retreat of the seven battalions to Laojun Mountain.

When Deputy Regiment Commander Duan saw that Lei Jian had sent reinforcements, he shouted excitedly: "Lei Boy has sent us reinforcements, brothers, we have now completed the task of blocking the enemy and will retreat immediately." ”

The Tokugawa Wing Commander did not expect the Dohachi Road to retreat so quickly, and he ordered a squadron to pursue and destroy this force.

The chief of staff of the wing said cautiously: "Your Excellency Dazuo, we are the vanguard of the retreat of the large army, once we are entangled with the Tuba Road, it will affect the retreat speed of the entire brigade, you see." ”

"You're right, I just want to destroy this Tubalu and clear the retreat channel of the large army to ensure the safety of the brigade's retreat."

The Tokugawa Wing Commander was temporarily enraged by the small unit of the Eighth Route Army that had ambushed him, and recklessly sent a squadron to pursue the fleeing Tubachi Army.

He continued to advance with the main force, followed by Taro Hashimoto's mixed brigade, escorted by four tanks and seven vehicles pulling artillery, the headquarters of the Japanese 13th Brigade was sandwiched in the middle, and the wheels rolled over.

Wang Xiaoliang saw that the mixed brigade of devils was about to pass through Yagezhuang, and he said with a red eye: "Commander Lei Dai, you quickly give the order to rush out with our tanks and modified combat vehicles?" It's too late to wait. ”

"Don't be impatient, the purpose of my thunder sword is not the tanks and artillery of this mixed brigade of the Japanese army, once provoked, let's add up the strength of a regiment, do you think you can defeat the attack of a brigade of the Japanese army? Hmph, I don't know how we're going to die. ”
