As the wolf smoke gradually dissipated, the devil's attack began to tighten for a while. The officers and men of the 235th and 236th regiments gradually lost their support, and the casualties increased, so they had to retreat while fighting. Withdraw two trenches, concentrate all forces, and return fire under the beam. In this return fire, the devils under the beam began to hit the defenders with mortars and grenadiers. The defenders immediately used the trenches to evacuate their troops.

The devil originally wanted to transport the gun cart forward, but he was afraid that the roller would be lowered on the mountain. Although Chen Dahei shouted at the head of the beam, don't worry, there are no rollers. When they heard this, they were even more afraid. Later, when it was completely dark, Motegi, who was sitting in the Lijiadian compound, gave the order to attack, and all the forces of Ono Yataro's wing (Kuroda Wanichi's wing was in Chifeng) were half-beamed. The two 92 infantry guns and two mortars of the artillery squadron of the wing, on the temporary repair position, kept loading and firing guns. The 236th Regiment of the defending army suffered heavy casualties, and the divisions had to retreat again.

Chen Dahei was looking at the devil's cannon in the darkness from outside the range, and he really wanted to tap the barrel with his fingers. I didn't have to knock it, so I had to knock my head twice. Ha, inspiration came, he beckoned Li Gouyu and the little thief, and said: "You two have seen the devil's artillery position clearly, I order you two to touch down from the 235th regiment, and aim at the devil's bomberer and loader, and kill me." Attention, you two must come back alive......"

Li Gouyu and the little hairy thief touched the position of the 35th regiment, and they were not far from the devil's attack point. The devils were also attacking, and under the cover of a cluster of trees, they fired several shots at the devil's artillery company on the large ramp. Although their marksmanship is not as good as that of Company Commander Chen, they are also among the best in the whole brigade. Of the 20 bombers, 7 were killed by them, and all four loaders fell.

Although these four guns were dumb for a while, the 17th Wing also came up, and they were also attached to the artillery squadron. Soon the 4 cannons of the Naoda artillery squadron began to roar again. Although the 235th Regiment also organized a broadsword team, the 236th Regiment also organized an assault team, and when it saw it, it would countercharge. But in the face of the invincible cannon, bravery has also become diminished. Chen Dahei saw that the devil was still moving up, so he had to do the same, and ordered Yam Dan and Wang Erhu to go around to the north, and also attacked the gunner. But the devil has taken precautions, Yam Dan and Wang Erhu were both shot in the left arm, and if they were able to escape, they had already picked up a life each.

Li Minglong, who took care of all the wounded bandits while taking care of the old father and mother, couldn't sit still. In the past few days, the guns have been roaring, the cannons are rumbling, and the more this devil kills, the more he comes. That day he fought and killed the devil, and he felt that the devil ate well, dressed well, and the guy style was good, and then he had the skills and came prepared. If you have to fight one-on-one, you will say that he, a bandit, is the head of Miao who fights flexibly, and he is not one. He once followed Han Linfu, Du Zhensheng and Jia Congliang to make revolutions, and his simple revolutionary outlook has not completely disappeared in his heart. This made him think to himself that all parties and factions must unite to fight devils......

Thinking of this, he said: "Chang Xi, you go to Cangcang Dam Liang to see, what is the fight between the southern army and the little devils?" "Second Master Chang doesn't want to go, that means, what kind of fight do you like, we are busy...... He knows very well what this second-in-command is thinking. Then he said, "It is because we have helped you that we let you go and see it; It is precisely because our Zhuangzi has his back to the Cangcang Dam that I am not at ease......"

Second Master Chang had no choice but to smile and apologize to the big boss, and then took a few of his subordinates and galloped along the ridge of Shuiquan to the top of Cangcang Dam. After a while, they beat their horses and ran back, panting and said: "The big boss, the men and horses of the Southern Army Brigade are all on the Cangcang Dam Beam, as if they want to fight to the death with the devils......"

He stood in the door of the outhouse, and kept looking at the big boss, wanting to speak and stopping. He bowed his head and thought about it, and then said, "My brothers and I didn't come to the front, and many of their commanders came to the front of the position, and they were all arranging their positions. I heard someone called something, it was called Han, the director, and that eloquence ......" Li Minglong seemed to be listening to him, especially in thought. Second Master Chang's eyes rolled for a long time, and then said: "Big boss, let's take the old man and the old ** away, anyway, Brother Minghui also went to Beiping." The Southern Army is doing this, let's help it......"

When Li Minglong heard him say this, he stood up and said, "I said Brother Chang, you are still a second-in-command, the little devil has come to our door, this devil, is it someone who helps us, or do we help others?" Seeing that Chang Xi was no longer arguing, he stopped talking. Turned to the bandit leaders in the house and said: "Prepare the horses, take a few people with me......" Chang Xi and Wu Kuaileg were suspicious when they heard it, you look at me, I will look at you, Wu Kuaileg finally couldn't hold back and asked: "Big boss, let me ask you, are you going to Cangcang Dam Liang?" ”

Li Minglong was obviously unhappy, and said: "The devil has hit our door, do you all want to leave?" At this time, Li Minglong's father, everyone called him an old man or an old man, and said: "Minglong, this little devil is not easy to mess with, I heard that in the Northeast, kill people and set fires, do everything, let's not mess with them, even Zhang Zuolin ......" Li Minglong pinched the box cannon with both hands, clicked the bullet upward, and asked in a heavy tone: "Ao, old man, you finally spoke?" We haven't messed with that little devil at all, didn't he come to our door? ”

After Li Minglong said this, he didn't look at anyone, and said in a deep voice: "Wu Laosan, prepare people and horses, take a few brothers to go with me......" Wu Kuaileg said yes, and strode out. The horses were quickly prepared, and everyone got on their horses, went out of the gate, turned the backyard wall, walked the water spring beams, and ran north to the Cangcang Dam. Li Minglong looked back while beating his horse, and finally saw Chang Xi riding his licorice yellow chasing after him.

In order to prevent the black light from blinding and being accidentally injured by others, Chang Xi chased after him and said: "Third child, you shout there, don't let people misunderstand, give us a guy." ”

In fact, the sound of their horses' hooves, together with the sound of their horses' hooves just now, was heard by the officers and men of the 12th Battalion of the 235th Regiment, but they had no time to ask. There was a wave of bandits on Shuiquanliang, fighting devils with the 233rd Regiment, and they were injured a lot, and everyone in the 117th Brigade knew about this. Why didn't anyone say hello? Because the devil's cannon kept bombarding upwards, the devil soldiers attacked upwards desperately, and they didn't have time to greet the bandits. Besides, it is impossible for bandits to cause trouble for them.

At this time, I heard them shouting, obviously to get in touch. Regiment Leader Lin looked back, couldn't see clearly, and said, "Counselor Wang, go and see what they want to do?" Counselor Wang stood upright, saluted, and said, "Yes." "Turn around and stride this way. I got closer and saw it clearly, but I didn't recognize it. They were all on horses, and their expressions were indistinguishable from friendliness or anything. Counselor Wang said: "Are you passing by or watching the excitement?" Don't you see the devil attacking so quickly? If there's something, say it quickly. ”

Wu Kuaileg came back to his senses after listening to his question, and said with a fist: "This military master, let me introduce ......" He said and waved his hand at Li Minglong, and said: "This is the ...... of our Yinchuan pole master" Staff Officer Wang turned his head to look at Li Minglong. I saw this person riding on a horse, like a black stone mountain, with eyes and eyes, and he was self-explanatory. Thinking about this person, and these horses, there is no doubt that they are bandits. Li Minglong looked at him and looked at his group, so he said, "Under Li Minglong, may I ask if you are the subordinates of Captain Miao?" ”

Staff Officer Wang shook his head and said, "We are the 235th Regiment, do you know Commander Miao?" Li Minglong smiled slightly and said: "It's not just acquaintance, if you fight devils together, isn't it a lifelong friendship?" When Staff Officer Wang heard him talk about this, he said: "Commander Miao's defense is not here, you want to find him, have you seen it, there is the brigade headquarters, go there and ask!" With that, he turned and said goodbye and went back.

I called someone over, but I didn't ask clearly, and they went back again. Everyone was a little deflated, and at this time, on the north side of the intersection, the devil's shells exploded one after another. This also attracted everyone's attention, and in the firelight, everyone looked north. Li Minglong saw a person who was 1.8 meters tall, dressed in a sloppy military uniform, with land combat boots and an armed belt on his back...... In the midst of the crowd, not afraid of shells, look east.

Li Minglong followed the firelight from afar, looked at him carefully, and the more he looked at him, the more he looked like him, and he couldn't help but dismount and walk forward. The bandits dismounted, caught up with him, and protected him. Escaping the protection of the bandits, he stepped to the vicinity of the headquarters of the 117 Brigade. I can't go any further, and the guards won't do it anymore. Li Minglong looked at it again, couldn't help but smile, and said, "This military master, may I ask your surname?" ”

Han Linfu was paying attention to the position in the east, and there was someone behind him who really didn't pay attention. Listen to the reminder of the staff officer, and look back. When he turned around, Li Minglong also saw it clearly, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's classmate Han, it's always good!" Han Linfu looked back at Li Minglong in surprise, and in the night, Li Minglong, who was like a mountain, was standing in front of him. As if in a dream, he muttered, "Isn't this classmate Li?" After a while, he came to his senses, reached out to hold Li Minglong's hand and said, "Classmate Li, how could I meet you in this fiery battlefield, there is really no Japanese army that does not get together!" ”

Li Minglong was still so witty when he heard him, and he suddenly brought himself back to the student days when his former classmates were young and forgot to talk about politics, as well as his later revolutionary career. Although Li Minglong was not a party member at that time, everything he was engaged in was always following in the footsteps of Han Linfu. After the convening of the First and Second Party Congresses, the revolution was often at a low ebb, and the revolutions in various localities suffered frequent losses. In view of this, he once went to Hunan to inspect military ...... at the agreement of Jia Congliang

At this time, the brigade headquarters staff officer Tian stepped forward and said: "Director Han, he is the "righteous army" who participated in the battle in Shuiquanliang yesterday, supported the 233rd Regiment of our department, and joined hands to eliminate a brigade of devils. After hearing this, Han Linfu patted Li Minglong on the shoulder and said, "Classmate Li, I really can't see when there are many people in the team?" ”
