But Haruki Fujimoto knew that the brigade that was still behind the independent brigade to reinforce the main force was only a thousand people.

And Li Yunlong also recovered Lingqiu, and after annihilating a Japanese brigade from Laiyuan to the north, he also placed a unit in Lingqiu to block it.

Obviously, Li Yunlong was familiar with the situation of Haruki Fujimoto's troops occupying Guangling and other places. After returning from Pingxing Guandong, he first took Pingxing Pass, then recovered Lingqiu, and annihilated a Japanese army brigade that went north from Laiyuan, Li Yunlong quickly went north after leaving a force in Lingqiu.

It shows that Li Yunlong was not at all worried about the threat to his flank and rear of more than 1,000 Japanese troops who went south in Guangling at this time.

After receiving a report from the Japanese brigade that was moving south from Guangling, it was blocked and it was difficult to reoccupy Lingqiu County.

Therefore, Haruki Fujimoto just waved his hand and ordered a telegram back to the Japanese brigade heading south from Guangling, trying his best to break through the blockade in the south! Reoccupy Lingqiu County.

And just after Fujimoto Haruki had just finished arranging, Ryuichi Suzuki transferred 1,000 Japanese troops from among the Japanese troops attacking on the right bank to the left bank to strengthen the Japanese forces attacking on the left bank.

The rumbling artillery bombardment continued, but the artillery bombardment of the devils was already very small, and the commander of the artillery battalion of the independent brigade, Wang Chengzhu, commanded the artillery battalion to concentrate at least 20 70-mm mountain guns and carry out fierce artillery bombardment of the devil's attack troops.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

The whistling cannonballs whistled down in the eyes of the devil's attacking soldiers.

Immediately, a burst of explosions unfolded instantly. The shells exploded, and the flying fragments were like bullets of death, and after hitting the devil soldiers, blood flowed constantly, and the wreckage and broken arms were everywhere.

"Kill, kill, kill, kill!!"

"Keep rushing me, keep rushing, for the Empire! Shifts, shifts!! ”

...........

The devil commander who was in charge of directing the attack on the left bank of the Japanese army drew his katana and led the battle team to personally supervise the battle, directly forcing all the Japanese soldiers to continue to attack and advance.

But under the huge artillery bombardment of the artillery battalion of the separate brigade, the casualties of the bombing were heavy.

In addition, although there were only more than 2,000 people in a regiment under Zhang Dabiao's department, Li Yunlong promptly reinforced the position of a regiment on the left bank with 1,000 of the 2,000 reserves in his hands.

Under the superior fire of machine guns and the fierce shelling of the artillery battalion, the fierce attack of more than 7,000 Japanese troops was blocked step by step.

The fierce battle lasted for almost 20 minutes, and in front of a regiment position on the left bank, there were at least 3,000 corpses of Japanese soldiers.

The fierce battle was fierce, and even Haruki Fujimoto's eyes were blood-red.

At this time, the latest battle damage was reported to Haruki Fujimoto by Ryuichi Suzuki, "General, our losses have been as high as three thousand, plus more than two thousand of the previous losses. More than 5,000 people have already been lost. We now have less than 6,000 troops left on both sides of the strait! Among them, there are only about 3,000 people left on the left bank, and almost 3,000 people on the right bank! ”

"Bang !!"

Haruki Fujimoto slammed his fist on the table in front of him, and Peng Peng rattled.

"Eight Tooth Road! Eight grid tooth road! The loss is too great! Fujimoto Haruki gritted his teeth and said, with so many losses, there are only more than 6,000 Japanese troops left in his hands at present. Bibi eBook

And with a full army of 20,000, there are only about 6,000 troops left so far, which simply makes Fujimoto Haruki ashamed.

It's just that Suzuki Ryuichi couldn't care about it at this time, and said urgently: "General, the imperial army has suffered heavy casualties, and we only have more than 6,000 people left. According to the report of the sentinels guarding behind, at least more than 10,000 independent brigade troops killed from the Hengshan Independent Brigade base area have already rushed south, less than five miles behind me! ”。

"Time is running out! Quickly, concentrate all the troops, move closer to the side of the Hengshan Mountain Range on the left bank, and stand by the mountain to wait for reinforcements! Hurry up and drop! Looking at the map, Haruki Fujimoto finally gave up the plan to continue the attack to the south, and instead concentrated his forces at the foot of the eastern foot of the Hengshan Mountain Range on the left side of the Guanshui River, with his back to the mountains and waiting for reinforcements!

Ryuichi Suzuki also looked at the map and had to admit that this is the only way now.

"General, my subordinates agree!" Ryu Suzuki paused heavily, and then walked away to deploy.

Immediately, Li Yunlong, who was observing the Japanese attack, found that all the Japanese troops on the right bank had suddenly withdrawn to the left bank of the Guanshui River. Subsequently, a Japanese army began to take a defensive posture, and most of the main force suddenly retreated urgently to the Hengshan Mountain Range on the left bank.

"Made, the devil wants to withdraw to the foot of the eastern foot of the north-south mountain range of Heng Mountain to wait for help! Order Zhang Dabiao, as well as the second regiment, to launch a pursuit attack and stick to them! Send a report to the political commissar to block the devil's attempt to go north along the eastern foothills! Li Yunlong put down the binoculars, sneered, and immediately waved his hand to the staff officer of the command on the side and ordered.

"Yes, Brigadier !!"

At this time, the 10,000-strong army commanded by Zhao Gang, including the Fourth Regiment and the Independent Regiment, had already advanced behind Haruki Fujimoto.

It's just that before Zhao Gang could order the troops to launch an offensive, the devil suddenly retreated to the mountains to the west.

"Commissar, brigade commander urgent!"

Soon, a communications soldier took the telegram that had just been translated and reported to Zhao Gang urgently.

Zhao Gang took the telegram and looked at it, and asked people to spread out the map and look at it, and he understood the meaning of the old devil Fujimoto Haruki, "Fujimoto Haruki is going to withdraw here and wait for help." With his back to the mountains and blocking our attempt to encircle, the old devil is not a bad pen! ”

He Yongjie, the commander of the Fourth Regiment of the Independent Brigade on the side, said loudly: "Political commissar, let's catch up immediately!" ”。

"Not bad, commissar!" Zhou Hua, the head of the independent regiment standing beside He Yongjie, also nodded.

Of course, Zhao Gang would not deny it, so he ordered: "All troops will immediately catch up with the brigade commander and stick to the devil." At the very least, it is necessary to take precautions and block the possibility that the devil will suddenly go north along the northwest and southeast of Heng Mountain, at the foot of the eastern foot of the mountain range! Haruki Fujimoto, this old devil is a devil officer with rich experience in devil combat, or the chief of staff of Tada Jun, and he still has resourcefulness, so we can't be careless! ”。

"Yes, Commissar!" He Yongjie and the others stood up and saluted.

Subsequently, Zhao Gang commanded everyone and led more than 10,000 horses to press from the north, blocking the possibility of Haruki Fujimoto taking a gap to the north.

At this time, the more than 6,000 people of the remnants of the embarrassed command of Haruki Fujimoto ran all the way and retreated to the northwest of Heng Mountain, southeast to the foot of the eastern foot of the mountain range.

Seeing the mountains, Haruki Fujimoto said to Ryuichi Suzuki, "Suzuki-kun, there is only one way to enter the mountain. You can't open a defensive position at the foot of the mountain! ”。

"General, my subordinates agree!" Ryuichi Suzuki also saw the terrain, and it was indeed the only way into the mountain, so he found a place with more mountains to wait for help.

What's more, once you enter the mountain, it is better to stick to it and wait for reinforcements than to be bombarded by the artillery fire chased by the other side at the foot of the mountain!

"Yo Xi! We are now desperately short of food, grass and ammunition, and once we enter the mountains, we will inevitably be able to rely on airdrops to replenish supplies! Haruki Fujimoto thought of the ammunition reports of the various troops at this time, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
