The earth hummed sullenly under the trampling of the hooves of many horses.

Li Linhao had just flattened the saber, and his horse was swept away by the torrent of horses in the brigade, and he also ran away with his life.

A group of leaders, Pu Pinghui, undulated like waves on the gray background of the field in front of him, and a black field involuntarily flew towards him. The first regiment made a cry that shook the heavens and the earth, and the call was transmitted to the other regiments.

The horses curled up their legs in a ball, then stretched out again, jumping several meters away.

Amid the solemn sound of horses' hooves, I heard the crackling sound of gunfire that was still far away.

The first bullet flew through the sky with a loud roar, and the sound of a long bullet piercing the glassy sky. Li Haolin clamped the saber tightly in his ribs, and it hurt to clamp it, and his palms were sweaty, as if he had been coated with a layer of mucus.

The sound of flying bullets forced him to lay his head on the damp horse's neck, and the pungent smell of horse sweat drilled into his nose.

It was as if he could see the brown backs of the trenches and the gray crowd running towards the field through the glass of the telescope, which was covered with a layer of air. The machine gun struck the devil's head in a rage, and the screams of bullets scattered like fans. The devil ran in front, and a mist of dust like cotton wool rose in the ranks.

"Kill! Kill! Once again, the cavalry of the brigade rushed through the devil team of the cheats, like a sharp double-edged sword cutting through the most wrong part of the devil team.

Under the strafing of guns and swords, the devils were powerless to resist, and could only tremble and flee in front of these sudden night devils.

"Don't run, don't run, organize a counterattack, organize a ......"

The mouth of a devil Dazuo opened wide, and his whole head flew into the air, and the blood turned into a diffuse blood mist under his head, freezing that frightened face in the air forever.

The sound of the clattering horses' hooves was gone, and only the frightened cries of devils remained in the night.

Tada Jun sat in his military vehicle and clenched his fists fiercely, gritting his teeth and yelling: "Don't stop, keep going." ”

"But Your Excellency, the speed of our troops in the dark night is too fast, and the sight is very bad, and it is difficult to prevent the cavalry from sneaking up without a trace. Except for the wolves, the cavalry alone has attacked us three times tonight. The casualties of the troops are too great, and I suggest that the troops be stationed in place to avoid being attacked by surprise. ”

Kawabe Shozo bent down hard to ask Tada Jun for instructions, and his head was almost buried in his waist.

Tada Jun bit his lower lip tightly, and blood was almost oozing out.

He didn't know that if he continued to march in the way he was, his troops would not only have to lose a lot of energy, but would also be constantly attacked by the cavalry of the Independence Army and a pack of wolves that had gone mad to attack them.

But he was very worried that if the independent army took this opportunity to fight all the way to northern Shaanxi, then his army would be finished.

After careful consideration, Tada Jun finally sighed deeply and shouted at the herald who had been waiting outside the car for a long time: "Order all troops to immediately set up camp and guard against death." Whether it's a pack of wolves or the cavalry of the Independence Army, kill them one by one and wait until dawn before marching! ”

"Hay!" The devil outside the car looked very excited when he heard this order, and immediately ran into the distance.

The devils are really scared, and it's okay during the day, because of a series of measures by Tada Jun, the cavalry and wolves of the independent army have almost no chance to attack.

But at night, the darkness gave the cavalry and wolves the best opportunity to attack. They go out and there when the devils can't expect it.

In just a few hours, the devils have already lost thousands of people. The original army of more than 90,000 devils has now been sharply reduced to more than 80,000, and Tada Jun is really worried that his subordinates may die on the way before they can fight the independent army.

It's a plain, and the cavalry comes and goes without a trace. He just launched a tank to chase after him, and I am afraid that with the slow speed of Japan's tanks, he can't even see the back of the cavalry.

Although he was worried that the Japanese army in northern Shaanxi would lose, the pros and cons could be weighed, and Tada Jun had to make an order to stay in place, which was also a helpless move.

Two kilometers away, out of sight of the Japanese army, a large group of cavalry was rapidly gathering here.

Li Haolin's golden sword was at the forefront of the cavalry, proudly looking at the glorious Japanese camp two kilometers away.

In the past two days, his attacks have not only failed to speed up the speed of the march, but the devils have changed the direction of the march one after another because of the surprise of the devils.

No, as soon as he stopped, he immediately used a generator to light up countless lights, and frantically strafed the darkness around him to prevent the attack of cavalry or wolves.

"The little devil is scared of us, like a baby who is afraid of the dark, afraid of ghosts when he sleeps, or what's wrong? I still have to turn on the lights! ”

"When the little devil hears the sound of our horses' hooves now, I'm afraid I'm so frightened that I have to pee my pants. Didn't you hear the captives of the devils? They all call us devil cavalry! ”

"The courage of the little devil is probably not as bold as my yellow dog hahaha!"

The ranks of the cavalry were filled with the sound of banter and ridicule, and the devils were completely like chickens and dogs in their hearts, as if as soon as they charged again, the formation of the devils would immediately collapse.

"Well, we've been tired for two days too. It seems that the devil will not leave tonight, let's retreat for the time being! Li Haolin said with a smile.

"Brigadier Commander, are you not a devil?" Pu Pinghui asked suspiciously, usually the favorite thing of this arrogant brigade commander is to charge with the cavalry, and the devil who kills is not left behind. What's the matter today, you actually want to take the initiative to lead the troops to retreat.

A long wolf howl shook the heavens and the earth in the distance.

Not only did the cavalry look back at the place where the wolf howl came from, but even the Japanese soldiers two kilometers away raised their heads in unison and looked at the wolf howl in horror, and some of the devils had even begun to tremble in their legs. These days, their companions who have died under the wolf's kiss can only be described as countless.

"Let's go, we'll have a long time to spend with the devils!" Li Haolin smiled and looked at the green darkness in the distance: "The wolves have retreated, they are masters of field warfare." Don't forget the order of the deputy commander, just drag the devils and consume their will to fight. Today's mission is accomplished! ”

Late at night, Tongchuan, which is two days away from the devil, is brightly lit at the moment. Inside and outside the city, there are people shuttling quickly everywhere. The sound of the trumpets of the migrant workers as they worked hard came from afar, swirling and echoing in the dark night sky.

After several days of scrambling against time, the fortifications on the periphery of Tongchuan have begun to take shape.

Bunkers of all sizes were erected, but they were almost half-hidden in the underground trenches and were very dense. If you don't pay attention, you think that there are many large stones on the ground.

If Iida Sadagu could come to Tongchuan in person at this moment, he would definitely be surprised by the appearance of this place.

This was planned by him, and there had never been such a majestic defensive position. The continuous trenches stretched for five kilometers, like a dense net tightly enclosing Tongchuan.

All sorts of heavy firepower weapons were quickly transported outside the city and hidden in dug trenches.

If you look down from the sky at this moment, you will find that this defensive position designed by Gao Dong is like a big net with open pockets. The entrance is very wide, and the bottom of the pocket is Tongchuan Castle.

Gao Dong sat in a trench with his ass on his buttocks, and the cold wind blew, instantly taking away all the temperature from the sweat on his forehead. It was as cold as a bead, and it crackled on the ground.

Hu Xinghan handed him a lit cigarette, and the two supreme commanders of the Independent Army, who were also old comrades-in-arms who were side by side, sat down with their backs to the trenches. Smoke wafted in the cold wind, and the two of them seemed to be shrouded in phantom fog, and their faces could not be seen clearly at all.

"Captain, tomorrow the fortifications here will be almost complete." Hu Xinghan took a deep breath of cigarette, wanting to make his body warmer.

But the smoke rushed into his lungs with his breathing, causing him to cough loudly immediately, and the corners of his mouth kept drooling.

Gao Dong patted him on the back and said with a smile: "Yes, I'm really grateful to that guy Li Haolin." Without him leading the cavalry to drag the devil, I'm afraid we won't have time to arrange everything, and we will have to fight the devil head-on. ”

Hu Xinghan coughed for a long time before slowly leaning on the cold frozen soil, and said with a smile: "This kid usually looks quite hateful, and he doesn't respect the chief. But at this time, it seems that he still has a cute side! ”

The two looked at each other and laughed. They are old partners, and they know each other's meaning with a glance.

"Early tomorrow morning, let Yang Fei take his first division into the ambush position." Gao Dong looked at the dark night in front of him, his eyes flickering like stars: "The second and third divisions entered the position outside Tongchuan City, and Fang Kui's division was ready to attack at any time inside the city. ”

"The tank unit waited for the enemy to flee and led the infantry to charge. The self-propelled artillery unit is placed in the city, we have already arranged a heavy fire bombardment group, so there is no need for self-propelled artillery to join. Gao Dong said word by word.

"Don't worry, I've already told them this. As soon as dawn comes, they will lead their troops into positions on their own. Hu Xinghan nodded.

"And the people of the city, if the war breaks out, it will inevitably affect them. It's impossible to evacuate now."

"The people don't need you to worry, there are a lot of underground works dug by devils in the city, which are used to store food for the winter. I've been there, and all the caves add up to enough for people to hide in this city. You only need to endure for a few days, and as soon as the devil is defeated, this place will be safe! Hu Xinghan interrupted Gao Dong's words.

Gao Dong stood up and patted Hu Xinghan on the shoulder: "I really don't know, if it weren't for you, how would I pay attention to these details." ”

Hu Xinghan laughed and handed Gao Dong a cigarette again.

Gao Dong took the cigarette, his eyes suddenly tightened, and he looked coldly at the plain in the distance: "Tada Jun, you are slow, you have to climb over!" ”
