Chapter 509: Detachment

How could Tang Qiuli not know the extent of his injury, his left arm was so numb that he lost consciousness, his cheeks were hot and painful, and the blood was already on the collar of the military uniform, forming a hard scar, but he refused the military doctor's advice, and asked the military doctor to deal with it immediately, a piece of shrapnel the size of a fingernail was deeply pierced into the muscles, and the blood continued to seep out along the wound, and the military doctor rummaged through the medicine box for instruments.

Tang Qiuli took off the bayonet from Tang Long's gun, gritted his teeth, dug out the shrapnel, blood gushed out, and when he looked up, he saw the military doctor with stainless steel pliers in his hand, looking at himself dumbfounded, his mouth was open frighteningly, he smiled reluctantly, the military doctor came back to his senses, and hurriedly stopped the bleeding of his wound, Tang Qiuli found that the military doctor's hand was trembling slightly.

Tang Qiuli didn't feel the pain, perhaps, the pain in his heart had exceeded the pain in the body, and the excessive blood loss made him feel a little dizzy, this qiē could not make him feel at ease, because of himself, more than 20,000 soldiers in the two brigades, fell into a dangerous situation, and they must be brought out safely, this is his own responsibility, and it is also to make up for his mistakes.

After treating the wounds, he took the remaining soldiers of the guard brigade and rushed into the battlefield full of artillery fire, and saw the figure of the division commander disappear into the night.

The Japanese attack has been repulsed, and the shelling has stopped, it seems that they are adjusting their deployment, or waiting for more reinforcements to arrive, this fierce battle, the troops suffered more than 1,000 casualties, Ma Chaoyang and Jiang Yanming are studying countermeasures.

Tang Qiuli appeared in front of them, the two of them were surprised, they already knew that Mei Ting was seriously injured, and thought that the division commander must have personally escorted Mei Ting back to Huangya Cave, who would have thought that the division commander suddenly appeared in the forward command center, how could this be done, the troops were in danger of not being able to break out, and they were surrounded by the Japanese army, but the supreme commander of the independent division appeared in such a dangerous place.

Ma Chaoyang was just about to order the guard battalion to escort the division commander to retreat first, but was stopped by Tang Qiuli, and they noticed that the division commander's face was pale, and his left arm was covered with a thick bandage, which shocked the two of them was the wound on the division commander's face, which almost extended from the cheekbone to the lips, and the bones were deeply visible, and the muscular child's mouth was like a terrible roll, and the blood had coagulated.

However, the division commander's eyes are still so bright and peaceful, and he has regained his usual calm and leisurely, wisdom bead in his hand, the previous mania and murderous aura have disappeared without a trace, the division commander they are familiar with is back again, the two of them are nervous because of the dangerous situation, and the nervous hearts of the two people have settled down in an instant, with the division commander here, there is no danger that cannot be solved, perhaps, this is where Tang Qiuli's personal charm lies.

Tang Qiuli briefly inquired about the situation, and carefully observed the movements of the Japanese army, on the Japanese position opposite, there were only a few heavy machine guns, in the non-stop shooting, dark red ballistics, piercing the night sky, I couldn't see how many Japanese troops, but Tang Qiuli clearly felt that behind the opposite hillside, countless pairs of wolf eyes, staring at him tightly, both nervous and fierce, he suddenly grasped the pulse of the battlefield.

The reason why the Japanese army did not launch a large-scale attack was that they did not understand their own strength and did not dare to advance, on the other hand, they were also waiting for more reinforcements, and they did not move, which was most in line with the wishes of the Japanese commanders, their purpose was to drag themselves, if the troops moved, and were detected by the Japanese army, what would be the result, a mocking smile, floating on his pale face.

He ordered the troops in the front line to immediately retreat, concentrate all mortars, establish positions one thousand meters behind the road where the troops retreated, and the standard of artillery bombardment should be to cover the original position, the shelling time should not exceed 15 minutes, and the infantry should not stay until they penetrate Sucheng.

He especially reminded Ma Chaoyang and Jiang Yanming that when the troops withdrew, they must let the Japanese troops on the opposite side find out, and they must be realistic, go ahead, Ma Chaoyang and Jiang Yanming, their hearts are greatly supported, and the familiar smile of the division commander is on his lips again, and the smile is a signal of victory.

Tang Qiuli judged well, the Japanese army on the opposite side, the attack just now, was to drag the independent division troops, although there was a brigade of troops arrived, the Japanese division commander still did not have the courage, put all the troops in his hands up, and the devil Tang Qiuli against the branch, a little careless, is the fate of the whole army annihilated, his colleagues, suffered too much.

He still has to wait for more troops to arrive, with an absolute superiority of troops, in order to ensure that a fatal blow is a blow, entangled Tang Qiuli is victory, the more times like this, the more he must calm down, his colleagues are all wiped out, and the end of the corpses is gone, always alerting him, and he is constantly reminding himself.

The telephone rang rapidly, it was the commander of the forward unit who called, reporting an emergency, the troops of the independent division opposite, there were signs of retreat, and it could be observed that a large number of soldiers from China, leaving their positions, hid and went to the rear, please tell Your Excellency the division commander, whether we attack immediately and hold them back, otherwise, the troops of the independent division will slip away.

The head of the commander of the Japanese division suddenly swelled to the size of a gourd, and he felt a headache, and the enemy retreated, and immediately launched an attack, so that it could not escape, this is a very ordinary method of warfare, even a second lieutenant knows, but in the face of Tang Qiuli, it is the devil of the branch who shattered the jade of hundreds of thousands of imperial soldiers, and the painful lesson told him that none of the imperial generals who despised the devil Tang Qiuli could come back alive.

The terrible thing about this person is that at a time and place you don't expect, a large number of troops suddenly appeared, so that you and your soldiers fell into a catastrophe, the commander of the Japanese division kept pacing back and forth, and the generals who were waiting for the order under his command were inexplicable, the enemy was about to escape, Your Excellency the division commander, was still here like a donkey grinding, if you turned for a few hours, the soldiers would have run away long ago, the vast Taihang Mountain, looking for a needle in a haystack, and finally grabbed Tang Qiuli's tail, and the opportunity could not be lost in vain.

They knew that His Excellency the division commander was about to turn his head on the ground, and for 20 minutes, he suddenly stopped and asked the staff officer to ask the troops closest to the division and regiment where they had arrived and what the strength was.

There are two divisions of troops, in three hours, can arrive at the meeting place, order the troops, immediately pursue, must not let Tang Qiuli go, however, he used what he thinks is a very ingenious tactic, all the troops, in the wing as a unit, the distance is five kilometers, set up a long snake formation, the head of the snake bites the independent division troops, the snake body rolls upside down, if it is a trap, the troops behind, there is also time to retreat.

For more than 20 precious minutes, more than 10,000 soldiers of the Second Independent Brigade were able to safely evacuate their original positions without suffering any attack, and the brigade commander Ma Chaoyang was stunned. Or is it collectively blind?

He glanced at the division commander who was engrossed in observing the movements of the Japanese army, and had the heart to ask for advice, Tang Qiu said without looking back: "Ma Chaoyang, order the troops to speed up the evacuation and get out of the range of Japanese artillery fire as soon as possible. ”

Dozens of people ran all the way to catch up with the evacuated troops, and sure enough, the artillery fire behind them was continuous, and the position was blown up to the sky, after the troops of the two brigades met, they were handed over to Jiang Yanming for unified command, and they slammed into the direction of Sucheng, hundreds of mortars, squatting silently in the night, and the retreating soldiers, knowing that the division commander was personally commanding, were not panicked at all.

When passing by the mortar position, he also whispered to the gunners, brother, fight hard for a while, the division commander is watching from the side, let the little devil also taste the power of our artillery, **, bullying us without heavy artillery, but we can smash shells on Lao Tzu's head, crazy and boundless

The mortar gunner didn't say anything, just wiped the shell in his hand, wiped and wiped, Tang Qiuli observed the movements of the Japanese army, the shelling stopped, behind the dark mountain bag, Hulala rushed out a large group of wolf-like Japanese soldiers, and in the blink of an eye, he rushed through the open field, and the guy who ran fast had already stepped on the position abandoned by the troops.

Tang Qiuli ordered in a low voice: "Open the cannon" With the first shell fired by the base gun, it accurately exploded into a fireball in the Japanese army's charging formation, just like the player who heard the starting gun on the field, the "dong dong" sound of the cannonball out of the chamber sounded, and the Japanese soldiers who were caught off guard were blown up on their backs by the shells that suddenly fell from the sky.

Dense shells, the Japanese soldiers lying down, like pulling radishes, threw the Japanese division commander who heard the sound of intensive shelling, not surprised, quite complacent touched the cap of the wine bottle, buckled the short beard under the nose, as expected, Tang Qiuli was a fake retreat, inducing our army to attack, so that it could give full play to the power of light artillery, to achieve the goal of inflicting heavy damage on our army, but unfortunately, Tang Qiuli's calculation was wrong.

"Order, the divisional heavy artillery wing, immediately lock on to the specific location of the artillery positions of the independent division, completely destroy their artillery, the second echelon, and prepare for the attack"

Tang Qiuli stared at the luminous watch on his wrist, at this time, the Japanese army who entered the army to abandon the position was bombed and cried his father and mother, and he died when he advanced and retreated, and his little short legs couldn't run the shells, so he could only lie down on the spot, praying for the blessing of Amaterasu, and the cannonballs should not fall directly on his body.

"All artillerymen, retreat immediately," Tang Qiuli hurriedly gave the order, the mortar crews, carrying the scorching mortars, ran violently, in just fifteen minutes, each cannon fired at least a dozen shells, thousands of shells, enough for a wing of Japanese soldiers to participate in the attack to drink a pot.

After running out for less than ten minutes, the artillery position just now was covered by the whistling large-caliber shells, the fire was shining, the earth trembled, and the mortar gunners stuck out their tongues.
