Chase them, you have to catch them! ”

In Gao Ping, a team of only a few hundred men was fleeing in disarray, followed by an army of cavalry and infantry.

"Commissar, what now? The enemy is catching up again! Seeing the pursuers behind him, Dong Tianzhi was a little worried.

It was the political department of the Third Column of Decisive Death that fled, and although it did not join the Eighth Regiment of Decisive Death, they joined up with the 11th Guerrilla Regiment at Yinjiagou in Gaoping.

They thought they should be safe, but as a result, one battalion of the 11 th Guerrilla Regiment mutinied, and another battalion also coerced another battalion to mutiny, resulting in an attack on the political department of the column and the Fifth Special Office, and the loss of more than 100,000 yuan in property, and in the end, less than 300 people broke through the encirclement, including the political commissar of the Third Column, the chief of staff, the director of the Political Department, and the commander of the 11th Guerrilla Regiment.

But the loss is quite large.

But not long after the breakthrough was successful, they were caught up by the 40th Army and fell into a bitter battle.

"After leaving some people in the palace, the others retreated to the 344 Brigade at full speed, and only by retreating to the 344 Brigade's station, can we be safe."

Similarly, the pursuing 40th Army knew that they had to catch up with this group of enemies before entering the 344th Brigade garrison, otherwise their gains would be wasted.

Whatever you are afraid of, you will come, chase and chase, and the troops of the 344 Brigade will appear.

The name of a man, the shadow of a tree.

The 344 Brigade is not a force to bully, unless the 40th Army is here, it is really not an opponent of the 344 Brigade.

"Regiment commander, it seems to be a unit of the 344th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army!"

"What? What the hell is unlucky, how did you run into them so quickly? Fall back! ”

"Commander, this doesn't seem to be their station!"

"Are you confused? Can you fight? ”

"This..."

"What nonsense, if you can't fight, retreat!"

In the end, the pursuing 40th Army chose to retreat, not wanting to directly clash with the Eighth Route Army.

Originally, the 40th Army didn't want to kill the death column, but they heard that there was a lot of money in the fleeing team, and these officers of the 40th Army wanted to take the opportunity to grab a handful, make some windfalls, and explain to Chongqing.

"Chief, Brigade Commander Huang!"

Finally, under the leadership of the 344 Brigade, they came to the brigade headquarters of the 344 Brigade, and the chief and the 344 Brigade Commander Huang were at the brigade headquarters at this time.

Thinking of the six regiments of the decisive three columns, and the troops of six or seven thousand people, there are now more than 200 of them left, and the people who have successfully broken through the siege are also a little unbearable, and their mood is also a little indescribable.

"It's good to break through successfully!"

To tell the truth, the chief was also very dissatisfied with the loss of the three columns of the decisive death, you must know that they he specially reminded them, but the other party turned a deaf ear, which caused such a big loss.

Fortunately, the eight regiments fought for the spirit, which can be regarded as a little light on the face of the three columns.

"Chief, we were negligent, if we had cleaned up those old officers in time according to the chief's instructions, we would not have mutined and suffered such a huge loss as the three main regiments of the Decisive Column." Political Commissar Wu said in frustration.

"Commissar Wu, don't you know?" Brigade Commander Huang next to him couldn't help but ask.

"Know what?" Political Commissar Wu is a little unclear.

"It is true that the three main regiments of your decisive death three columns have mutinied, but only the seventh regiment and the ninth regiment have succeeded, and the eighth regiment of decisive death has defeated the rebel attack under the command of Li Hai, director of the Political Department, and now Sun Chu, the commander-in-chief of the Jinsui Army Group Army, has been arrested!" Brigadier Huang said with a smile.

"What? And what's going on? Political Commissar Wu was a little surprised, no one told him about it.

"Political commissar, the 1st Regiment of the 8th Regiment of Decisive Death did crush the rebels under the leadership of Comrade Li Hai, but it did not break through to the east according to the order of the column headquarters, but planned to break through to the north to kill the 1st Column." Dong Tianzhi obviously knew something, so he reminded.

"Went to the Death Column?" Political Commissar Wu was a little unhappy, "Didn't the column headquarters plan to break through to the east?" ”

"I made a plan to break through to the east, but I haven't been able to contact the Eighth Regiment of Decisive Death, I don't know if their radio is keeping the radio silent or broken!" Dong Tianzhi explained.

"You can't contact the Eighth Death Regiment? It's a nuisance. The chief said in a deep voice.

"Chief, what's wrong?" Political Commissar Wu asked.

The chief glanced at Brigade Commander Huang next to him, "Old Huang, let's talk about it." ”

Brigadier Huang smiled, "This Lehi is quite capable of tossing. He did not break through to the north, but to the west, first annihilated a battalion of the Seventh Regiment of the Decisive Death, and then ran for a long distance, terminated the headquarters of Sun Chu of the Jin Sui Army, rescued the political cadres who were captured by the Third Column of the Decisive Death, and by the way, captured Sun Chu, a senior general of the Jin Sui Army.

The 14th Army called here, let's persuade the Eighth Regiment to die, don't kill Sun Chu, otherwise it will be very troublesome. ”

"This Lehi, can't you break through well? Gotta come here! Commissar Wu was a little unhappy.

"Comrade Wu, in fact, this is nothing. This matter was provoked by the Jin Sui army, and it is okay to teach them a lesson, and it can be seen from this battle that Comrade Li Hai is quite good at fighting!

With a regiment, surrounded by the Jin Sui army and the rebels, it is not easy to cut off Sun Chu's headquarters. The chief smiled and complimented.

"Chief, if you don't transfer him back to our 344 Brigade, it will be our brigade anyway, I am reluctant to let him be left out of exile with such a talent."

"Lao Huang, now you know that you want someone? Didn't you dispose of him in the first place? ”

"That's different, after all, if you kill the prisoners, if you don't punish them, how can you manage the troops? Isn't it great to send a mistake and reward it if you have merit? ”

"Let's wait until he succeeds in breaking through. Political Commissar Wu, you can use the radio to contact the Eighth Regiment at any time, and by the way, send someone to find his troops, so that he doesn't kill Sun Chu, and he will return it to Yan Laoxi later.

Come to think of it, Yan Laoxi should have sent a telegram over there. Although this Sun Chu is not his descendant, he is a general after all, so I don't believe he doesn't care. The chief said with a smile.

"Yes, Chief!"

Seeing that the two people in front of them attached so much importance to Lehi, the group of people who broke through from the three columns of decisive death felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts.

。。。。。。

"Hold me back, our reinforcements will be here soon!"

South of Qinshui County, Feng Village.

As soon as the 8th Decisive Death Regiment, which was about to break through to the north, arrived here, the 1st Battalion, which had changed from the rear team to the forward, encountered the main force of the 7th Decisive Death Regiment that was going south for reinforcements.

At the beginning, there was a lot of pressure on the 1st Battalion, but as the 1st Battalion, the 3rd Battalion and the Artillery Company joined the battle, it became that the 7th Regiment could not hold on.

The strength of the Seventh Death Regiment, which lost a battalion in Zhengzhuang, had declined rapidly, and in addition, Guo Honghuang, director of the Political Department of the Seventh Death Regiment, Lu Zhengwei, commander of the first battalion, and other political cadres went to persuade them to surrender, so that the Seventh Death Regiment, which was already under great pressure, was still facing the problem of internal instability.

It was very difficult to fight for a while.

Seeing that the troops showed signs of defeat, Zhang Ji, the commander of the Seventh Regiment of the Decisive Death, was also a little anxious, and personally went to the front line to supervise the battle, wanting to stabilize the defense line and wait for the arrival of the 8th Independent Brigade.
