"Regiment commander, it took less than fifteen minutes to attack Qufu City, and all the Japanese infantry brigades defending the city, plus some puppet troops, destroyed a total of 1,327 enemies, and the captured Japanese officers have all been killed. Now the whole city is in good order, and the brothers are cleaning up the battlefield. Regiment commander, Qufu City is the location of the headquarters of the 6th Independent Brigade directly under the 12th Army of the Little Devils, and a large amount of grain, grass and ammunition are stored in the city, which is enough for the supply and ammunition of several of our regiment-level troops. It's just that there are too few of us, I'm afraid there is no way to transport it out of the city in a short time! ”

Less than a few minutes after the battle ended, Duan Peng, the captain of the special combat team under Li Yunlong, hurriedly reported to Li Yunlong.

At this time, Li Yunlong had already convened a meeting of the commanders and fighters of various departments at the headquarters of the 6th Independent Brigade of the Japanese Army in Qufu City, and after listening to Duan Peng's report, everyone laughed. The results of the battle were great, although they were happy and joyful and painful.

At this time, Li Yunlong had already let people put out the map of Shandong, smiled and pointed to the map and said to everyone: "At present, our department has captured Qufu, completely annihilated the Japanese army defending the city, and eliminated the brigade headquarters of the 6th Independent Brigade of the Japanese Army in the city, killing more than 10 officers at all levels below such as the brigade commander Kawada Haruta, the chief of staff Shinnosuke Kaneshiro, and countless enemies!" Large quantities of grain, grass and ammunition were seized. It's still the same as before, and people from outside Qufu City are sent into the mountains to contact to see if there are any local guerrillas. If so, let them hurry into the city to carry grain, grass and ammunition. If not, we will withdraw from Qufu City in time! To the north, the Japanese troops in Ningyang and Surabaya are likely to have turned around and moved south. We're running out for time! What do the brothers think? ”。

"Regiment commander, according to our previous emergency contact with the brigade headquarters, in the mountainous areas around Qufu, there are not many guerrillas controlled by our Eighth Route Army in the mountainous areas around Qufu. Mount Tai is there, but there is no around Qufu, I'm afraid there is no way to get in touch. However, there was a guerrilla force of the Nationalist Army in the mountainous area south of Qufu, but there were not many of them. Zhang Dabiao said loudly.

Li Yunlong shook his head and said, "Made, although those national troops insist on fighting, they are too rubbish. It is a bargain to sell friendly troops, not to mention that the relationship between the National Army and our Eighth Route Army is well known. If they fight to the death, I will admire Lao Li. Forget it, order all the troops to replenish the ammunition lost during the attack on Qufu, and bring plenty of dry food. The rest of the captured grain, grass and ammunition were blown up for me! Don't leave it to the little devils at all! We are ready to withdraw! ”。

"Commander, what should we do next? Where to retreat? It's already past six o'clock in the morning, and in thirty or forty minutes, it will be completely dawn. Zhou Hua, the commander of the independent battalion, said in a condensed voice at this time.

And the others also pricked up their ears and looked at Li Yunlong. The next target of the attack, it is estimated that we need to see the situation.

Sure enough, I saw Li Yunlong pondering for a while, but he didn't answer immediately, but kept his eyes on the map, thinking about this.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, I saw Li Yunlong smash his fist on the map, and then said slyly: "There is still time, we will rush to Yanzhou, non-stop, and kill Yanzhou." Judging from the distribution of the garrisons of the 6th Independent Brigade of the Japanese Army captured here at the headquarters of the 6th Independent Brigade of the Little Devils, the Japanese army in Yanzhou only has a little more than two squadrons, but the strength of five or six hundred people. This bit of strength can't block the blow of our more than 2,000 iron horsemen! Tell the brothers to evacuate Qufu in five minutes, hurry up! ”。

"Understood, Captain!" Everyone stood up and saluted, and the head of the regiment said so, so he made up his mind to attack Yanzhou.

What's more, Yanzhou is not far from Qufu, and there is enough time. There are not many enemy troops in Yanzhou, more than 2,000 iron cavalry are rushing, and the firepower is enough, taking Yanzhou is almost a sure thing.

Therefore, none of the big guys denied Li Yunlong's combat decision. What's more, since the march out of Hengshan Mountain into Hebei Province and the southern march to Shandong, it has been too late for the Japanese army to encircle and intercept them, which is enough to show that the commander of his regiment is awesome.

More than five minutes later, everyone cleaned up the battlefield, and when the army withdrew from Qufu City, hundreds of the annihilated Japanese troops in Qufu City were moved outside the north gate of Qufu, and according to Li Yunlong's order, a Jingguan was erected.

"Withdraw!" The troops gathered outside the West Gate City, and Li Yunlong glanced back at Qufu City. This is Confucius's hometown, but unfortunately the troops are still too small, if there are 10,000 horses, it is still possible for Li Yunlong to lead the army to firmly occupy it after recovering Qufu.

It's just that there is no if, with Li Yunlong's order, after annihilating the Qufu defenders, the army quickly cleaned up the battlefield, withdrew from Qufu City, and rushed to Yanzhou in the southwest.

In less than ten minutes after Li Yunlong led his army to evacuate Qufu, the Japanese troops from Ningyang and Surabaya turned south to reinforce Qufu, totaling more than 1,000 people, and galloped south to reinforce Qufu in the starry night.

However, after arriving in Qufu, the two Japanese troops discovered the Jingguan erected outside the north gate of Qufu City, and the headquarters of the 6th Independent Brigade of the Japanese Army in the whole city was also killed by Li Yunlong's main cavalry force, and they wanted to cry without tears.

"Quickly report to His Excellency Commander Iida of the Jinan Military Headquarters that Qufu has been lost. All the soldiers of an infantry brigade of the imperial army who remained in Qufu were killed, and the senior commander of the regimental headquarters of our 6th Independent Brigade in the city was all killed. Brigade commander General Haruta Kawada, chief of staff Shinnosuke Kaneshiro and more than a dozen officers below were all killed in the battle, hurry up! ”

Seeing the corpse of the senior officer of the headquarters of the 6th Independent Brigade of the Japanese Army who was killed in the city, one of the Japanese army captains in Ningyang, who rushed to Qufu to reinforce Masuda Keiji, was frightened, and immediately waved his hand helplessly to a Japanese signal soldier beside him and ordered.

And this Japanese army signal soldier said cautiously: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, do you also report the matter of the Jingguan built by the Eighth Route Army with the corpses of hundreds of imperial soldiers outside the north gate of Qufu to the military headquarters?" ”。

"Report it, we will wait for the direct instructions of the military department!" Masuda Keiji thought about it, but still waved his hand and said helplessly. The Kyokan outside the north gate is so big, the matter can't be hidden, and you can only report it truthfully to Iida Sadagu.

I saw that the Japanese signal soldier paused heavily and said, "Understand, Your Excellency Shaozuo!" and quickly turned around and left to send a report.

And Masuda Keiji was helpless, and sent a part of his troops to clean up the corpses of Japanese soldiers who fell everywhere in the city, clean up the battlefield, and stationed in the city.

The news of the loss of Qufu was quickly transmitted by radio to the military headquarters of the 12th Army of the Japanese Army in Jinan City.

"Your Excellency Commander, Qufu has been lost, and the brigade headquarters of an imperial infantry brigade and the 6th Independent Brigade in Qufu City left behind have been wiped out by Li Yunlong's troops! The senior commanders of the regimental headquarters of the 6th separate brigade were all killed! The footsteps hurried, and Keita Takeda pinched a telegram that had just been translated and reported to Iida Sadagu urgently.
