Chapter 212: Depressed
The night battle is not as easy as imagined, it is impossible to see how far it is, and the bullets whistling in the dark add a touch of haze to people's hearts.
Although even in the daytime, the bullets that should be avoided are still unavoidable, but in the face of bullets fired in the dark, people will subconsciously feel fear.
"Hurry up, hurry up and join the detachment leader first." Iron Egg shouted a greeting.
With so many enemies, it is not said that they can be carried down by will and hard work, Tie Dan took his subordinates and turned around and retreated to the place where Zhang Yunfei and the others were.
The vague figure disappeared in an instant and disappeared into the darkness, from time to time there were stray bullets across the nearby darkness, without the blocking of Tie Dan and others, the advance speed of the puppet army was obviously much faster.
However, they did not dare to march too fast, because they were also afraid, in the dark, they did not know where the Eighth Route would suddenly attack, and the unknown threat was the most fearful, and they were still cautious when they marched.
"Detachment leader, there are too many enemies on the left, we can't stop them." Tie Dan, who rushed back to the main position, hurriedly reported.
"Withdraw!"
Zhang Yunfei ordered without hesitation, there was no choice in this, and if he couldn't fight the enemy, he could only choose to run.
Perhaps the Eighth Route Army's night battle was too famous, and in the dark night, the encirclement of the puppet army did not dare to rush too fiercely, and as soon as they made contact, they suffered several casualties.
This made the courage they had just mustered up because of the bounty leak again, which also gave them a gap to escape, widening the distance between them and the puppet army, although they fled far away, but the gunfire behind them became smaller and smaller, but it never stopped.
I don't know what these puppet soldiers are doing, bullets don't need money to make as if they are powerful, it's too wasteful of bullets, Zhang Yunfei feels pain when he hears the sound, these are his own logistics warehouses, it's such a waste.
The morning sun jumped out of the horizon, and the sky was cloudless, indicating a good weather.
But Zhang Yunfei's mood couldn't get any better, they took advantage of the night, and the retreat was unexpectedly smooth, and there was no bad situation as he expected.
However, this was not the case, for some unknown reason, they held out until the night, and no reinforcements arrived.
This can only be regarded as a fluke, if the Japanese puppet army arrives, even if it is night, then it will be very difficult for them to get out, and it is not worth surprise.
The enemy didn't care if he made a mistake, but his own reinforcements also didn't know what to do, and they disappeared completely, and it was understandable to say that the fifth squad was a little difficult to find to fight guerrilla warfare outside.
And Cui Liangfang's small team is stationed in the detachment headquarters, and they are still easy to find, but now the people have not come yet, which makes him a little unacceptable.
That's the disadvantage of poor communication, and he still doesn't know what happened to the two squads that were supposed to reinforce him.
Zhang Yunfei, who is helpless, is now in an unknown situation, and now he can only return to the station with his subordinates.
This small encounter made Zhang Yunfei realize that he was still very lacking in overall command ability, and that it was actually difficult for commanders in this era to understand the changes in the battle situation in real time due to communication restrictions.
This is a greater test of a commander's overall command ability, and he must roughly predict the direction of the battle situation, and he is too far behind in this regard, and now he is in a dark eye, and he doesn't know what the situation is.
When Zhang Yunfei returned to the station, he found that Cui Liangfang's team was not there, and he went to support him yesterday, but he didn't wait for them, which made Zhang Yunfei strange.
Damn, so many people can get lost, which makes Zhang Yunfei speechless.
Soon after they returned, the men of the first squad and the fifth squad came back one after another, yes, one after another, one after another, one of the regular tactics of the Eighth Route Army, which they used, was reduced to zero.
It wasn't until Cui Liangfang and Yang Laozhuan also came back that Zhang Yunfei figured out the ins and outs of the matter, and as soon as Zhang Yunfei's order for help arrived, their two teams immediately gathered to help.
Yang Laozhuan's five squads were unlucky and collided with the devil's reinforcements, and the two sides immediately exchanged fire.
The problem is here, at that time, Zhang Yunfei and the puppet army were basically sporadic shooting, Cui Liangfang, who rushed to help, judged from the situation, thinking that they had broken through and retreated, and mistakenly thought that Yang Laozhuan and their battlefield was Zhang Yunfei and they were engaged in a battle with the puppet army's pursuit troops.
So they immediately turned to reinforcements, and it was originally Yang Laoshuan's five squads who met the enemy, but this time, it was their two squads that met the enemy.
As soon as the devil saw that there were so many good guys, he naturally forgot that they were here for reinforcements, and directly chased them to attack.
You must know that this time they encountered a devil from a standard squadron reinforced from the county seat, and they were equipped with light and heavy machine gun firepower, so they naturally couldn't bear it, and finally they could only disperse and evacuate.
This can be regarded as solving a question for Zhang Yunfei, where are the reinforcements from both sides going, but they are the first to do it.
But this made him even more depressed, in a nutshell, both battlefields were pressed and fought, which was completely different from his preset battle direction.
The first squad and the fifth squad encountered real devils, they were not like the puppet army, even if they were chasing, they were like dealing with errands, they were afraid to chase too fiercely, for fear of forcing the eight roads to fight to the death.
The devils chased after them, although they saw the opportunity quickly, and immediately dispersed and evacuated, but they were almost defeated by the devils, and in the end, a total of twenty-three soldiers failed to return to the team.
It can be confirmed that fifteen soldiers died on the spot, and although the rest are currently characterized as unknown, everyone knows that it is estimated that there is less luck.
In terms of results, he has completed the rescue work, but this is the fucking equivalent of a life for a life, and this sacrifice is also a bit bigger.
Twenty-three soldiers are gone, can Zhang Yunfei not feel distressed, such a big casualty Zhang Yunfei has not experienced, but the previous casualties are meaningful.
And this time the battle was a bit too inexplicable, completely out of his control and prediction.
And now there is another trouble, although the superiors are very satisfied that they can open up the situation in Pingchuan, but when it comes to replenishing troops, it can only be solved by themselves.
That's the problem, now they have enough guns and weapons to expand their numbers, but where the soldiers come from is worrying him.
This is not a problem of insufficient publicity, but after several conscriptions in Pingchuan, there are really not many remaining young men recruited for them, and now it is very difficult for their detachment to recruit soldiers.
The potential of this place is so great, no matter how much propaganda and mobilization can mobilize many people to join the army, those who want to join the army have already signed up, and the thought of this Zhang Yunfei hurts his brain.
