The change in the enemy situation was quickly discovered in Li Yunlong's eyes.

"Yo, Gu Shoufu, this old devil no longer organizes troops to break through. It looks like I'm going to wait for help! Li Yunlong stood on the high ground on the side of the Qiaogou Gorge, looked at the canyon with a telescope and stopped the attack, and the Japanese troops on both flanks of the valley began to retreat to the middle, and built fortifications on the side of the mountain that could hold on to the side of the valley waiting for reinforcements.

Zhang Dabiao was dusty, his face was blackened by the gunpowder smoke of the Japanese artillery fire, and he simply wiped it with snow to wash his face, but Zhang Dabiao's face stiffened in the cold.

"The regiment commander, Lao Ye Temple, Dongpaochi, and the 28th Regiment, the commanding heights of the mountains on both sides of the canyon guarded by the brother troops of the Independent Regiment, none of them have been lost, and they are firmly controlled in our hands. It's just that our casualties are not small, more than an hour of fierce battles, mountain battles, especially the commanding heights on both sides of the canyon, the mountains made Gu Shoufu crazy to supervise the Japanese army attacks on the back. Gu Shoufu At this time, Gu Shoufu, it seems that our ambush finally let this old devil know that it hurts. ”

Zhang Dabiao said with a smile at this time, you must know that at present, for the three divisions of the new regiment, the 28th regiment and the independent regiment, the total casualties of each unit have reached more than 2,000 people. Although there are at least 10,000 people in the annihilation of the first division, looking at the number of Japanese troops in the valley, I am afraid that Gu Shoufu still has at least 10,000 troops in his hands.

Li Yunlong nodded, at this time, the Lao Ye Temple was already firmly controlled by the hands of the new regiment and one battalion, not to mention that there were two 100 mm howitzers personally commanded and deployed by Wang Chengzhu on the top of the Lao Ye Temple, which was enough to suppress the attack of the Japanese army in the valley on the Lao Ye Temple.

In this way, Zhang Dabiao would have time to rush to Li Yunlong's temporary field headquarters to discuss the next battle situation.

Ding Wei, the commander of the 28th Regiment, and Kong Jie, the commander of the Independent Regiment, had no way to rush to Li Yunlong's headquarters to discuss the military situation, after all, they needed to command their troops to fight from the east to the west of Qiaogou Gorge to capture the remnants of the 11th Infantry Brigade of the Japanese 6th Division east of Qiaogou Gorge.

"Not bad!"

Li Yunlong nodded, and agreed with Zhang Dabiao's words, "At present, the 6th Division has been beaten by my new regiment, the 28th regiment and Kong Jie's independent regiment with heavy casualties. However, although there is little difference in the strength of the enemy and us at present, we must not be careless. Looking at the current situation, Gu Shoufu clearly intends to stick to and wait for help. Look at this top-secret information that has just been sent by the brigade headquarters! ”。

Zhang Dabiao immediately took the telegram and took a closer look, and his face suddenly became solemn, "Regiment commander, Okabe Naosaburo has not hesitated to abandon the towns occupied in the northwest of Jin and the part west of Ningwu, and mobilized these Japanese troops to transport troops to the remnants of the 6th Division besieged at Pingxingguan through trucks, trains, etc. Moreover, judging from intelligence, Okabe Naosaburo also mobilized the 3rd Air Brigade, which was re-stationed at Datong Airport, and dispatched all its fighters to attack the Hengshan base area and ambush the men and horses of our army at Hepingxingguan. Time is ticking! ”

"Yes, time is of the essence. Gu Shoufu has only contracted his troops and is waiting for reinforcements, so we have to launch a general attack in advance! I have already ordered Wang Chengzhu to smash all the shells into the gathering place of the remnants of the 6th Division in five minutes, and all the shells will be exhausted. The light and heavy machine gun fire covered the units to launch fierce fire at the gathering place of the remnants of the 6th Devil's Division, covering the troops to launch a strong attack! Da Biao, you hurry back and deploy and prepare for a general attack! ”

Li Yunlong sneered, and then said to Zhang Dabiao.

"Understood, Commander! You'll see. Now we still have a lot of ammunition, and it should be a big problem to deal with the 6th Division. Zhang Dabiao stood up and saluted, and then hurried out of Li Yunlong's field headquarters.

Seeing Zhang Dabiao leaving, Li Yunlong turned his gaze back to the Qiaogou Gorge and gradually retreated to the Japanese troops in the surrounding mountains where Gu Shoufu's division headquarters were located.

"Gu Shoufu, you executioner with a thousand cuts, this time, you will definitely not be able to escape." Li Yunlong gritted his teeth and thought that Gu Shoufu was one of the culprits who killed hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Jinling, and the crime was extremely heinous, if Li Yunlong could capture this old devil, the devil soldiers of the 6th Division would be built to deter the little devil again.

At this time, Gu Shoufu, who was being nagged, shuddered, and muttered in his mouth, "Baga Yalu, who is cursing me?" ”

Throwing off the thought of muttering in his heart, Gu Shoufu was ordering the remnants of the Japanese army in all divisions to move closer to the mountains around his division and regimental headquarters at this time, and hurry up the time to build fortifications and prepare to hold on and wait for reinforcements.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander! There is a case! ”

A hurried voice reached Gu Shoufu's ears, and he saw that the chief of staff of the division, Shimono Ichihuo Dazuo, who was on the side of the headquarters, changed his face greatly, walked to Gu Shoufu's side, and pointed to the opposite side of the canyon.

"Bagaya Road, the Eighth Route Army is ready for a general attack! Quickly order all troops, hold their positions, and prepare to block! Hurry up and send another urgent telegram to Commander Okabe, the general attack of the Eighth Route Army, and request to urge reinforcements to speed up the speed to reinforce our department! Looking in the direction of Shimono Kazuhuo's finger, Gu Shoufu saw through the telescope that the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army in the ambush positions on the hills on both sides of the Qiaogou Gorge had crossed the position and rushed down into the canyon.

Dense soldiers of the Eighth Route Army rushed down from the canyons on both sides, shouting and killing to the sky.

Without waiting for Shimono Ichi, Horton, and then sent someone to give the order, suddenly a loud sound of shelling came from the canyon and mountains.

Not only Shimono Yihuo, but even Gu Shoufu was terrified, "Yaga Ya Road, enemy artillery bombardment, hidden!" ”

Gu Shoufu roared and ordered the Japanese soldiers to lie down and hide, but on the hills on both sides, the 28th Regiment and the independent regiment each carried out fierce artillery fire on the remnants of the Japanese 6th Division in the canyon.

One after another, the roaring shells smashed down with a long tail flame, especially the two large-caliber 100-millimeter howitzers under the command of Wang Chengzhu personally emitted a deafening anger of revenge, and the heavy shells whistled in, and the gathering place of the 6th Division that was directly bombed was stuck in the waiting place for help, and the artillery smoke filled the air in an instant.

All kinds of shells exploded, fragments flew and hit the bodies of the Japanese soldiers, and the stumps and severed arms suddenly flew everywhere, and blood drifted away.

The screams of the devil soldiers came out like a shadow, and people were terrified when they heard it.

The fierce artillery bombardment covered the three men and horses of the Eighth Route Army who rushed down from the mountain, and the shouts of killing suddenly resounded in the valley of Qiaogou Canyon, and it was transmitted back for a long time.

"Your Excellency, the commander of the division, the left side was broken through by the Eighth Route Army, and the commander of the Ushijima Manchu Brigade sent someone to report that the 36th Brigade had suffered heavy casualties, and most of the defensive positions of the 23rd Wing of his division had been lost! Request support! Soon, the Japanese field heralds of the 36th Brigade Regiment on the left side of the defense hurriedly reported to Gu Shoufu.

When Gu Shoufu heard this, a mouthful of old blood suddenly burst out, "Baga Yalu, order Ushijima Man, there is no support, let him resist me!" ”
