The soldiers of a certain regiment on the east bank of the Shahe River, who were holding their positions, found that the mechanized troops of the devils were retreating quickly, greatly reducing the intensity of the artillery fire on the positions, and finally had a chance to breathe.

The front commander of the 13th Brigade of the Japanese Army received an urgent order from the Songzhuang Brigade Headquarters, ordering that an Imperial Army be left behind, continue to divide and encircle the troops of the Tuba Road, and order the Kameda Wing to immediately return to Songzhuang.

The Japanese commander grabbed the telegram in his hand and shouted angrily: "Why is this? Why did I immediately want to destroy the Tuba Road, and I actually ordered the withdrawal of troops to return to help, how could there be troops of the Tuba Road in Songzhuang? Bastard. ”

Just as the front-line commander of the Japanese brigade shouted angrily, the combat staff officer handed over another urgent telegram, ordering the front-line Kameda Wing to immediately return to reinforcements, and those who violated the order were killed.

The tanks and artillery of Taro Hashimoto's mixed brigade had retreated without a shadow, and the Kameda Wing quickly withdrew from the battle, leaving only one Tokugawa Wing on the Japanese front with a large number of reduced troops.

Commander Liu, who was in command of the five detachments in command of the position on the west bank of the Shahe River, saw the tanks and artillery of the devils with a telescope and quickly retreated, and the main force of the Japanese army of one wing also withdrew from the battle, and only one understaffed Tokugawa wing was attacking in the forward position on the east bank of the Shahe River, and the strength and firepower of the offensive were greatly weakened.

At this time, Commander Liu received a telegram, and he happily handed the telegram to Political Commissar Gao, asking: "The enemy's mixed brigade and the main force of the infantry were suddenly attacked by this kid Lei Jian in Songzhuang, which caused the situation of the Japanese headquarters to be critical, and he was forced to order the transfer of a wing of troops back for reinforcements. Let's take the opportunity to kill the east bank of the Shahe River, and we will definitely thwart the attack of the little devils. ”

"Okay, I think it's completely doable." Political Commissar Gao said supportively.

Commander Liu ordered all troops on the west bank of the Shahe River to immediately intensify the Shahe River, fight the torrent and kill back to the east bank of the river, even if they can't destroy this Tokugawa unit, at least they must beat the little devils to make this group of bastards have a long memory, and they will not dare to easily launch a clean-up of the base area of the Eighth Route Army in the future.

The troops had just waded across the Shahe River and were about to kill back, the soldiers were in a mood of embarrassment for a while, and the high political commissar mobilized: "All the soldiers of all the troops, the Japanese army was hit hard by our Eighth Route Army in Songzhuang, and the main force of the devils has quickly withdrawn and reinforced, we must seize this favorable opportunity to forcibly cross the east bank of the Shahe River, eliminate the little devils, and avenge the brothers who died in this battle. ”

With a wave of his hand, Commissar Gao jumped into the raging sand river and rushed towards the opposite bank.

Under the leadership of Political Commissar Gao and Commander Liu, the troops bravely rushed into the icy Sand River again, forcibly crossed the position on the bank of the East River, and carried out the most fierce fire attack on the attacking Tokugawa Wing.

Lei Jian, who was standing on the truck at this time, saw that the western front of Songzhuang suddenly rolled up with dust and fog, he smiled and shouted happily: "Brothers, the main force of the little devils, tanks, and artillery have been transferred back by us, and they will all beat me hard, and we must blow up the Japanese position in Songzhuang before the Japanese army returns to help." ”

The devil's tank rushed towards Songzhuang like crazy, and Lei Jian said to Niu Dali and Wang Xiaoliang: "Do you two want to have another tank addiction?" ”

"Okay, Captain Leidai, you can give the order." The two said excitedly.

Lei Jian called the deputy commander of the third regiment and directly issued an order: "Deputy commander of the section, I will take one regiment and one battalion to carry out a new task, you take the three regiments to withdraw from the battle immediately, move closer to Jiming Mountain, occupy the position, cover the main force of the detachment to retreat into the deep mountains, and immediately execute the order." ”

He also ordered Zhang Ping, the commander of the second company: "You take the radio station and the second and third companies, retreat to Laojun Mountain south of Yagezhuang, hide and don't act, and wait for me and the first company to join you." ”

Lei Jian handed over the three modified trucks, that is, the new combat vehicles that the little devil said, to Zheng Tie, the commander of the third company, and repeatedly instructed: "Vent all the shells to the Japanese battalion in Songzhuang, don't wait for the enemy tanks to approach, immediately withdraw from the position, drive the car to the depression where we camouflage the trucks, hide it, don't care about it anymore, quickly rendezvous with the first battalion at Laojun Mountain, wait for the new combat mission, you act immediately." ”

Lei Jian arranged the troops, and when the Japanese army had not yet launched an attack on his position, he took the newly formed sharp knife platoon and moved quickly towards the northwest of Songzhuang, and disappeared after a while.

The Japanese tanks rushed to Songzhuang like crazy, and six tanks set up a defensive line in the west of the village to block the attack of the Eighth Route Army on Songzhuang, and the other two tanks bypassed Songzhuang and rushed straight to the positions of the third regiment and one regiment and one battalion of the Eighth Route Army.

Duan Zhihong, deputy commander of the Third Regiment, found that the devil tank was rushing over, and immediately ordered the troops to retreat to Jiming Mountain.

Zhang Ping, commander of the second company of the first regiment and the first battalion, withdrew from the position with the second and third companies, and ran to Laojun Mountain south of Yagezhuang at the fastest speed, waiting to meet the sharp knife platoon of Lei Jian.

Zheng Tie, the commander of the third company, commanded the modified chariot and ordered the mortar to aim at Songzhuang and fire the final round of artillery fire.

The Japanese tanks quickly bypassed Songzhuang and found suspicious new combat vehicles, no matter what kind of unit was maneuvering, and the tank commander received an order to concentrate artillery fire and destroy the enemy's latest combat vehicles.

Zheng Tie saw that the devil tank was under heavy fire, and he ordered to immediately drive to the east of Yagezhuang to retreat.

The enemy tanks spotted this cunning force, and as soon as they made contact, they desperately fled, and the two tanks accelerated in pursuit, and the artillery fire kept tracking the fleeing new tanks, and the dust kicked up by the explosion surrounded the three converted trucks, and they were almost shot several times.

Suddenly, the truck in front was shot and exploded, and Zheng Lian, who was sitting in the second passenger seat, roared: "Stop, stop." ”

The driver soldier immediately stepped on the brakes to the end, slammed the steering wheel to the left, and the truck rubbed against the ground with a screeching sound, and with a heavy collision, the car stalled.

Company Commander Zheng, who was sitting in the passenger seat, thanks to his early preparation and preparation, at the moment when the truck collided, with the strong inertia, his head still hit the front windshield, and his head and face were bleeding.

Company Commander Zheng didn't have time to wipe the blood on his face, kicked the car door fiercely, jumped out of the car and shouted: "Get out of the car and push the first car to the ditch." ”

He ran to the cab of the second truck and anxiously shouted to the fighter driver: "How is it? Can the car still be driven? ”

"Company Commander Zheng, don't worry, I'll try again." The fighter driver was sweating profusely, and the truck did not react at all.

At this time, the enemy tank rushed quickly, firing shells incessantly, exploding around the truck, and some fighters were hit by shrapnel and fell in pools of blood.

Company Commander Zheng shouted to the soldiers in the second car: "Bastard, can you make this car well?" If it doesn't work, push it into the ditch and let the third truck get over quickly. ”

The enemy tanks were getting closer and closer, and the shells exploded around them from time to time, and even the anti-aircraft machine guns of the enemy tanks rang out, and the bullets and shells threatened the lives of the soldiers who were tinkering with the trucks, and many fighters fell under the enemy's artillery fire and guns.

Boom, boom, the second truck made two loud noises and there was no sound, and the driver soldier felt that the truck could not start, so he kicked it angrily, and tried again before jumping out of the car.

Boom, the truck actually started, the driver soldier happily got into the cab again, linked hands and feet, quickly returned the truck to the road, the soldier under the car quickly jumped into the car, and the two trucks rushed forward like crazy.

The enemy tankers were cheering with joy as they saw that they were about to rush to the trucks, but just as they thought they would be able to capture the three of the enemy's newest tanks, two of them suddenly fled frantically along the road to the east.

During World War II, the maximum speed of Japanese trucks was more than 60 kilometers, and the speed of tanks was much lower than that of trucks.

Besides, Lei Jian with a platoon of sharp knives, rushed out of the position less than a mile away, immediately turned back to the southeast, approached the highway and hid in a low-lying place, seeing the three regiments and modified trucks withdraw from the position one after another, Lei Jian's heart was a little more relaxed.

The sharp knife platoon of the Eighth Route Army, which was hidden in a low-lying place, saw that the west of Songzhuang Village was dusty, the wheels were rolling, and the roar was getting louder and louder, and they knew that this was the Japanese army's tanks and artillery trucks returning for reinforcements, but it was already too late.

Wang Xiaoliang suddenly shouted: "Commander Lei Dai, you see that the enemy's two tanks are chasing the three trucks we modified, damn, the devil tank has fired." ”

Lei Jian saw the artillery fire of the Japanese tanks, which kept exploding around the three trucks, he gritted his teeth and scolded: "Zheng Tie, you bastard, why don't you withdraw from the position quickly?" It's killing you. ”

"Withdraw, our trucks withdraw." Wang Xiaoliang shouted happily.

The truck drove past the road in front of the knife platoon, and the hidden soldiers cheered in a low voice: "It's okay now, the truck has finally withdrawn from the position, and this time people are so nervous that they don't even dare to breathe, it's too exciting." ”
