Li Gang saw the cavalry battalion kill the Japanese battalion at the foot of the northern mountain, and he ordered the reconnaissance company to follow him, and the assault company set up an ambush 300 meters away from the enemy's camp, and the spy company set up an ambush at 700 meters.

He held the binoculars and watched the cavalry battalion enter the enemy camp, and at first he rushed left and right, slashing and killing with ease, and was happy about it, when he suddenly found that from the two wings of the cavalry battalion, two troops were secretly moving quickly, and they were directly behind the cavalry battalion, trying to surround the cavalry battalion and carry out division and strangulation.

Li Gang was shocked at this look, he wanted to use the thunder sword to pinch his lips and issue an emergency evacuation whistle to give a quick withdrawal order, but it was too far away, and the commander of the cavalry battalion, Ma Ming, could not hear it at all, seeing that the cavalry battalion was about to be surrounded by a large Japanese army from behind, Li Gang really had no choice but to order the reconnaissance company to rush out of the hidden place and rush to the enemy camp as fast as possible.

Li Gang, who was in a panic, took the lead in rushing to the front, but no matter how fast he was, he couldn't stop the formation of the devil's encirclement, and in a hurry, he shouted to the soldiers who continued to rush towards the enemy camp: "Stop advancing, three soldiers in the front row, each throw a grenade to warn the battalion commander of the horse, and retreat quickly." ”

'Boom, boom, boom' three explosions in a row, Ma Ming, who led the cavalry battalion to rush and kill in the enemy group, suddenly heard three explosions behind him, hurriedly turned around, and saw more than 100 soldiers of the Eighth Route Army standing there in the southwest direction, with crazy body movements, conveying to him the signal to withdraw from the battle immediately.

Ma Ming looked around, and when he found that the two devil troops from both flanks were quickly assembling behind the cavalry battalion, trying to steal the cavalry battalion from the back and carry out the killing, he was so frightened that he was sweating.

He didn't have time to shout out the order to withdraw from the battle, and the tension sounded that the head of the Thunder Sword Regiment shouted 'Hoo' at the most dangerous moment, and Ma Ming kept shouting 'Hoo' while slashing and killing the enemy who pounced on him and retreating.

When the soldiers heard this special command, they suddenly felt that the commander of the Thunder Sword Regiment had returned to the only regiment, and they immediately doubled their murderous aura and rushed left and right in the enemy group. The soldiers of the cavalry battalion knew in their hearts the meaning of life and death of shouting '' at the most dangerous moment, but when they heard this '' at this time, they felt very cordial.

The soldiers of the cavalry battalion shouted excitedly while slashing and slashing the enemy's retreat at the same time: "Our Commander Lei is back, our Commander Lei is ......." ”

Ma Ming led the soldiers to quickly rush through the enemy group, and when he heard more than 300 cavalry soldiers, almost at the same time, shouting '' with tears in their eyes, he couldn't help but shout: "Regiment Commander Lei is by the side of each of our soldiers, in order to continue to kill devils alive, '-'." ”

At this time, the soldiers had already concluded that their Thunder Sword Regiment Commander was by his side to direct the killing of the enemy, and in order to kill more little devils alive, they shouted '', fought bravely to kill the enemy group, and finally broke out of the enemy's strange encirclement.

Li Gang saw that the cavalry battalion had successfully broken through the enemy's encirclement, and he happily ordered the reconnaissance company to immediately disperse and flee, quickly reach the hidden position, and prepare to meet the enemy who was chasing after him.

The Japanese commander of the Japanese army, Matsumoto, was disappointed to find that he was about to surround the cavalry brigade of the Eighth Route Army, but he was taken out of the flag barracks by three grenades thrown out by a group of Tu Balu in the distance.

He ordered a brigade to pursue the cavalry brigade of the Eighth Route Army as quickly as possible, and even if it couldn't catch up, it would wipe out all the fleeing Eighth Route Infantry.

The commander of the Katayama Brigade, who was standing at the door of the military tent, was very appreciative of the tactics of the commander of the Matsumoto Wing Commander in concealing and quickly encircling and dividing and strangling the cavalry battalion of the Eighth Route Army from behind, and he nodded and praised: "Matsumoto-kun is a witty and decisive commander. ”

Seeing that the cavalry battalion of the Eighth Route Army was about to be surrounded by the Japanese army, three explosions suddenly came from the southwest, and the cavalry battalion of the Eighth Route Army, which was about to be surrounded, was like a gust of wind, killing the almost formed encirclement and going straight to the scattered soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who were fleeing in all directions in front.

The commander of the Katayama Brigade shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity, a pity, it's really unsatisfactory." ”

He turned around and rushed into the military tent, sat down heavily on the marching bed, and sighed: "It's a real grudge to bury the great opportunity to destroy the Tu Eighth Route Cavalry Brigade in vain." ”

The chief of staff of Inada walked into the tent and immediately reported: "Report to Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, a brigade of the Matsumoto Wing has quickly pursued the cavalry brigade of the Tubalu, and another brigade will be sent to respond later. ”

The commander of the Katayama Brigade heard such a report from the Chief of Staff of Inada, and stood up angrily and shouted: "Bastard, this Matsumoto is simply a pig, and the infantry is pursuing the cavalry brigade of the Tsuchibaji, what will be the consequences of this?" Once you are not careful, you will be ambushed by the Tubalu, and the concentrated superior forces will be encircled and suppressed. ”

"General Katayama, I found that behind the Tubalu Cavalry Brigade, there are only more than 100 Tubalu, standing less than 300 meters southwest to meet the cavalry, and the two brigades of my Matsumoto Wing, once they exchange fire with the enemy, they will definitely wipe out all the infantry cavalry of the Tubalu Road."

"Chief of Staff Inada, do you think Matsumoto's sortie will definitely wipe out the Tsuchihachi Infantry Cavalry? I don't want to tell you too much, let's wait and see, but hopefully Matsumoto's two brigades will be successful. ”

The commander of the Katayama Brigade was a commander who knew a lot about strategy and tactics, and he would never believe that the infantry cavalry of the Eighth Route Army would be so stupidly exposed, and once a heavy ambush was placed, the two brigades of Matsumoto would be hit by heavy firepower.

Li Gang saw Ma Ming leading the cavalry battalion and quickly breaking out of the encirclement that the enemy was about to form, and his heart was at ease at this time.

He remembered the dangerous situation of the cavalry battalion just now, and he was still a little afraid, once he failed to warn the cavalry battalion in time, and the cavalry battalion was divided and surrounded by a large Japanese army, the commander of the Lei Jian regiment would put his heart and soul into forming a cavalry battalion with strong mobility and victory in a hundred battles, and it would be lost to him, the newly appointed regiment commander Li Gang.

Li Gang turned back in fear, glanced at the retreating cavalry battalion again, and not only shuddered in his heart.

Ma Ming led the cavalry battalion to Li Gang's side, turned over and dismounted and said ashamedly: "Thanks to Commander Li's timely warning, otherwise the cavalry battalion should be divided and surrounded by the enemy's large army at this time, and I don't know how to live or die." ”

Li Gang said fearfully; "Commander Ma, let's remember that the cavalry battalion is not the main force for attacking cities and plundering land, but a highly mobile combat force, and his task is to reinforce in time, sneak attack the enemy, and not take the battle to kill the enemy.

It was really dangerous just now, if the cavalry battalion was folded in the hands of me Li Gang, I would be sorry for the head of the Lei Jian regiment who worked hard for the cavalry battalion as a treasure, and even more sorry for the soldiers of the cavalry battalion who never gave up on life and death. ”

Ma Ming lowered his head in pain, and said with self-reproach: "Commander Li, this is a lesson, although it did not cause major casualties, it is too dangerous, thanks to you for taking emergency measures at a critical moment, Commander Li, you have the command ...... of Commander Lei Jian." ”

"No, no, no, none of the commanders of our only regiment will be comparable to the commander of the Lei Jian regiment, let alone surpass him, the commander of the Lei Jian regiment is like a benchmark, he has a certain foundation in the strategy and tactics adopted by the enemy in the war, he has read too many books, knows too many things, and thinks too carefully, I, Li Gang, am afraid that no matter how much I progress, I will not be able to catch up with the pace of the commander of the Lei Jian regiment."

Ma Ming listened to Li Gang's words very rightly, he not only said appreciatively: "Commander Li, I heard Commander Lei Jian once said, 'Shame and courage', although he did not first put forward this, but as long as we can often think of Commander Lei Jian's strengths, we can remember his strategy and tactics in troop management, command operations, and use, these good things, no matter how arduous and dangerous the task, our only regiment can complete it." ”

"Ma Ming, what your old brother said today, how can I sound like Captain Lei is giving me instructions, you can do it, old Ma, I, Li Gang, really underestimate you, okay."

"Commander Li Gang, you have been with Captain Lei Jian for a long time, and you have learned more things than me, what I just said, either I have the ability, or I say it, even I don't know what it means, this is what Captain Lei said to me when I was injured and visited me, although I didn't understand it at the time, but I remembered it all in my brain, so I'll give it to you today, hahaha."

"Report to Regiment Commander Li, the enemy is pursuing a brigade in advance, and it is still more than 200 meters away from us, what should we do?" Fang Chao, the instructor of the cavalry battalion, reported.

Li Gang said with a smile: "We are just being chased by the enemy and swaggering and laughing, it seems that the plan to lure and contain the enemy is half successful." ”

He became serious and ordered loudly: "Battalion Commander Ma Ming, lead the cavalry battalion to immediately rush into the woods southwest of the front to hide, and the reconnaissance company will disperse and assemble towards the original hidden position, preparing to ambush the enemy." ”

Ma Ming took Li Gang's hand and said, "Commander Li, our Commander Lei is not in front of you, and you are about to fight with an enemy several times my size, you can't rush to the front line to take risks, quickly pull into the woods and take command." ”
