The warrior standing on the ground saw that Lei Jian was riding a horse and rushed to him, and he was afraid of being trampled to death by the war horse, so he turned around and ran away in fright.

Lei Jian scolded: "Bastard, you run a ball? Hand it to me. ”

Li Gang watched the thunder sword drag a soldier onto the horse, he rushed to another soldier standing on the ground, reached out and grabbed the soldier's collar, the soldier was also very cooperative, his body was vertical, and he sat on the horse's back.

More than forty war horses suddenly picked up their hooves, rushed out of the hidden depression, and quickly retreated to the southwest.

The squadron leader of the wellhead found the Tubalu position, suddenly jumped out of more than forty war horses, and withdrew from the position like flying, he thought he was dazzled, and quickly rubbed a few times, and when he opened his eyes again, where was the shadow of the war horse in his eyes? What you see is the dust that is blowing up in the southwest direction, fading away.

The two squadrons of devils who outflanked the positions of the Eighth Route Army from both flanks, accelerated the speed of the attack, and waited for the three squadrons to surround this high ground, where could there be troops of the Eighth Route Army? All that could be seen was the bullet casings left on the ground.

Captain Kameda followed, stood on the position and stared angrily at Squadron Leader Taro Iguchi and scolded: "Bastards, a bunch of stupid pigs, there is only a force of less than 100 people in the Tsuchihachi Road, you will let them all go, bastard." ”

Squadron Leader Taro Iguchi reported respectfully: "Report to Wing Commander Osa, Tsuchihachi suddenly turned into cavalry, and escaped without a trace in the blink of an eye, and my squadron has no war horses, and it ...... on two legs alone. ”

Captain Kameda was angry and wanted to scold again, but he also wondered how there were so many war horses on the Dirt Eight Road, could it be .......

He turned and asked the chief of staff: "Where do you say my cavalry is now?" The chief of staff of the Kameda Wing frowned and said: "I am also doubting that the cavalry team that appeared behind the Tubalu position should be the troops of the imperial army, how could it become the cavalry of the Tubalu, could it be that our cavalry team was all shattered, and the war horses were taken away by the Tubalu?" ”

At this moment, two or three war horses galloped over, and one of the cavalrymen, Cao Chang, turned over and fell off his horse, stumbled to Kameda Dazuo, and immediately reported: "Report to Your Excellency Dazuo, the cavalry team and the imperial warriors of the cavalry team are all broken." ”

Kameda was shocked and asked, "Where is your cavalry captain now?" ”

"Your Excellency Dazuo, the cavalry team pursued the fleeing Tuba Road, but I didn't expect to be ambushed in two places, the cavalry captain and more than 30 cavalry warriors below bravely counterattacked the Tuba Road, and finally because they were outnumbered, they came back to the two of us."

The chief of staff of the devil jumped off his horse, grabbed the cavalry devil who reported it, and roared angrily: "What you say, the cavalry of the Kameda Wing was all killed by Tubaluge, I ask you, how many troops are there in Tubalu?" Where are they all hiding. ”

The devil cavalry who fled back immediately reported: "Report to the chief of staff, there should be a battalion of troops in ambush at two places on Tuba Road, and they are hiding on the high ground of five or six miles to the southwest. ”

Kameda ordered Noda's three squadrons and six squadrons to take the east bank of the Shahe River as the base point, and quickly search westward, northward, and southward in a nine-way dragnet pattern.

Besides, Lei Jian led the cavalry, quickly caught up with the soldiers who retreated on foot with the commander of the sixth company, left the two extra soldiers on the horse, and immediately ran to the northwest.

The cavalry team quickly galloped in the northwest direction, rushed out three or four miles, and found a troop, Wang Xiaoliang asked: "Battalion Commander Lei, it won't be the team of our independent battalion, right?" ”

The unit found was the Ninth Company led by Zhang Ting to escort the wounded and sick, and under the cover of Niu Dali's Sixth Company as a rearguard, they marched all the way and finally got rid of the devil's tracking.

Lei Jian led the cavalry team to rush to about a hundred meters away from the marching Ninth Company, and several soldiers in charge of guarding suddenly shouted nervously: "Company Commander Zhang, look, a devil cavalry team has been killed from the northwest." ”

Zhang Ting, the commander of the Ninth Company, hurriedly looked in the northwest direction, this look was amazing, just see the dust rising from the northwest direction, a horse team galloped over, Zhang Ting ordered the soldiers of the Ninth Company to occupy a small high ground in front, and lay down to prepare to block the attacking devil cavalry.

He shouted to Chun Tao: "Health Team Leader Changchun Tao, you immediately lead the wounded and sick, hurry up to the west, and then turn to the southwest to retreat, and I will bring the soldiers of the Ninth Company to cover you." ”

Chun Tao hurriedly urged the wounded and sick to speed up the march, and in order to stay alive and not be surrounded by devils, he did his best to retreat in the direction of Liugong Town.

Lei Jian saw that the troops in front of him were hidden on the high ground, he was afraid of causing a misunderstanding, and the two sides exchanged fire, so he ordered the cavalry team to stop in place, and he took Wang Xiaoliang and the messenger Xiao Zhou to rush to the high ground of the hidden troops in front.

Zhang Ting, the commander of the Ninth Company, looked at the three little devils who rushed over, one of them took off the steel helmet in his hand, waved it and shouted: "Don't shoot, I'm the Thunder Sword." ”

Zhang Ting's eyes widened carefully, and when the three horsemen were about to pounce on the high ground, he suddenly threw away the gun in his hand, bounced up and rushed towards the three war horses.

Lei Jian saw Zhang Ting running over, he didn't wait for the war horse to stop, he jumped down from the horse, handed the reins to Xiao Zhou, who had caught up, and ran towards Zhang Ting who was running over.

Zhang Ting excitedly hugged Lei Jian, the platoon commander of the puppet army who had been liberated, after several battles and training, in the big family of the Eighth Route Army, his thinking has been greatly changed, and his military quality has also been greatly improved.

He said with tears of excitement: "Battalion Commander Lei, but I see you again, as long as the soldiers can see you by their side, they will have confidence in their hearts." ”

Chun Tao, who retreated with the wounded and sick, saw that the three cavalrymen who rushed over were Lei Jian, Wang Xiaoliang and Xiao Zhou, and returned to rush over without caring about anything.

She held back the tears in her eyes, looked at Lei Jian, and finally cried uncontrollably: "Brother Lei, you are back." ”

Lei Jian didn't have time for the warriors to tell each other how he felt during the parting, he ordered the cavalry team to let out the war horses, each war horse carried two warriors, and quickly retreated in the direction of Liugong Town.

The soldiers of the cavalry all ran forward, catching up with the troops transferred to the front.

After a period of tense transfer, the wounded and sick escorted by the Ninth Company should be far away from the pursuing devil army, which was less than twenty miles away from Liugong Town.

Lei Jian's tense deployment, from the enemy-occupied area east of Shahe, the soldiers who broke through victoriously basically got rid of the pursuit of the devil's army, and they were safe for the time being.

Wang Xiaoliang sat on the ground, patted a stone and said, "Battalion Commander Lei, sit down and rest, take a breath and then give the next order, people have to be busy and free, right?" ”

"You bastard think we're on our way to the market? When you are tired of walking, you have to know that we are still in the enemy-occupied area, and there is a possibility that there will be a search force of devils at any time, and besides, after riding a horse for such a long time, my butt is grinding and bleeding, so it is better to stand comfortably. ”

Lei Jian twisted his waist as he spoke, but his eyes glanced around alertly.

Suddenly, I heard a gunshot from the southeast, judging by the range, time, and distance, it should be that the sixth company was bitten by a devil.

Lei Jian immediately ordered loudly: "Get on your horse and quickly rush towards the place where the gunfire is heard." ”

Listening to the sound of the gunfire to identify the direction, and calculating the distance with the clarity of the gunshot, Lei Jian judged that it should be about a kilometer away from the place where the gunfire sounded.

He said to Niu Dali: "You lead the soldiers of the cavalry team to hide here, I will take a few soldiers to the front to reconnoitre, once I hear three gunshots coming back from the front, immediately kill them in the direction of these three gunshots." ”

Wang Xiaoliang didn't wait for Niu to speak, he shouted to Lei Jian: "Battalion Commander Lei, I want to follow you to the front to reconnoitre." ”

Now Wang Xiaoliang doesn't want to leave Lei Jian at a step, no matter how dangerous it is, knowing that he may die in battle if he keeps up, he doesn't want to separate.

A few war horses approached in the direction of the fierce gunfire, just after turning over a beam, Lei Jian found that on an earthen dam not far away, it should be the sixth company and the enemy in the exchange of fire, it seems that the sixth company was entangled by devils, it was difficult to retreat, and was forced to use the earthen dam to hide and block the little devils who caught up.

Whether it is in terms of weapons and ammunition, or the quality and quantity of soldiers, the Sixth Company is far from the enemy, and seeing the strength of one squadron of the devils, it is necessary to encircle the sixth company, and once the sixth company falls into the encirclement of the devils, it can only die in battle, and there is no chance of breaking through the encirclement.
