"Mossi Mossi...... Hai ...... Hello ......"

After receiving the order, the signal corps immediately prepared to run to the headquarters to convey it. But soon he was at a loss, for there was no one who was now qualified to receive orders, not one.

Captain Kawada and Captain Yoshimura were all killed, as were all three squadron leaders of the Kawada Brigade. The communications corps now doesn't even know who to talk to about this order.

In the end, a staff officer of the Kawada Brigade took over the order and carried it out without hesitation.

The content of the order was simple, abandon Pingxingguan and retreat the whole army. The mission was cancelled. The order came from the command of the 21st Brigade, and there was a clever word in this order, which was "cancel", and the Japanese did not want to admit their defeat.

……

The end of this battle was caught off guard, and even Yue Siliang himself did not expect that in just an instant, the Japanese army chose to withdraw in a hurry.

Yue Siliang did not order the pursuit, but just watched the Japanese troops leave lightly. This battle was a vicious battle in which 1,000 enemies were wounded and 800 were self-inflicted. The current 424 regiment can be said to be a real injury, and I don't know how long it will take to really recover.

But Yue Siliang understood that they had won this battle! The Eighth Route Army, really in the second theater, has made a name for itself in North China and has played a majestic role!

"Plop!"

Yue Siliang's body, which had been relaxed, softened suddenly, and he lay straight on the ground, looking at the sky.

"Commander, how are you?!"

His sudden fall startled Lei Zi, and he hurriedly ran over and asked with concern. Yue Siliang weakly raised his hand to signal that Lei Zi didn't matter.

"It's okay, I'm just too tired. Let me lie down alone for a while, and rest all the brethren......"

When Qiang said such a sentence, Yue Siliang stopped making a sound, but just gasped for breath, and the breath in his mouth was fishy. As soon as Yue Siliang's voice fell, the soldiers who were standing also sat down or lay down one after another. The living and the dead lay on the ground.

His eyes were looking straight at the sky, and it was almost five o'clock in the afternoon, and the afterglow was turning the fire clouds in the west, thinking that tomorrow should be a good day.

"We ...... Won. ”

After waiting for the breath in his stomach to be even, Yue Siliang said this sentence with great excitement.

"Whew~~Wow~~"

There were low shouts one after another on the battlefield, and everyone had no strength to cheer wantonly, so they could only raise their hands and make some noises to express the excitement in their hearts.

"Commander, you're right. It's the first time we've encountered such a difficult enemy in so many years, and this little devil is much more difficult to deal with than the white dogs. ”

Lei Zi also breathed a sigh of relief at this time and sat next to Yue Siliang. Yue Siliang did not comment on this kind of exclamation issued by Lei Zi, as the war continues to deepen, the soldiers will independently evaluate the enemy, and an excellent army will take the initiative to grow, and it is useless for him to repeat these things alone.

At this time, the second battalion at the rear of the position had also cleaned up the battlefield and came here under the leadership of Liu Chuan, the battalion commander and deputy battalion commander who was in danger.

"Commander, we're late."

Liu Chuan had a deep look of shame on his face when he reported to Yue Siliang, but Yue Siliang looked relaxed, sat up with great effort and said with a smile.

"It's not too late, you have completed the task well, compared to the small fortune you made when you cleaned up the battlefield just now. Don't bother the two masters, and then hand over the task of cleaning up the battlefield to your second battalion, and at the same time do a good job of vigilance, and now we can't rule out the possibility of the enemy's thief's heart making a comeback. ”

"Yes!"

Liu Chuan nodded solemnly, Yue Siliang didn't say anything, Liu Chuan's personality is very cautious, and he is also relieved to hand over such a sweeping work to himself.

"Regiment Commander, Battalion Commander Huang, he was wounded in the charge just now, and now he is lying on a stretcher."

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Chuan still reported Huang Kebei's news to him. Yue Siliang pondered for a long time before speaking again.

"Let him recuperate well, and be a big soldier in your second battalion for a while, when he really knows that he is wrong, I will consider using him again."

Yue Siliang didn't say it to death, leaving a hole for Huang Kebei. Liu Chuan was overjoyed to carry out the order again.

……

After resting for a while, Yue Siliang led the cadres of the 424th Regiment to the middle of the soldiers. The casualties of the 424th Regiment in this battle were not small, nearly 200 soldiers were killed, and almost those who were alive were wounded of varying severity. Thinking of the sacrificed soldiers, Yue Siliang's face was extremely ugly. Every warrior is a baby bump in his heart, and although he has long been accustomed to seeing life and death, his heart is still extremely sad.

"Commander, we've made a fortune this time!"

Lei Zi saw Yue Siliang's discomfort, and hurriedly interjected on the side to divert the topic. Although Yue Siliang saw through Lei Zi's kindness, he didn't say anything, patted him on the head and shook his head with a smile.

However, Lei Zi's words are true, this time the 424 regiment really made a fortune. More than 300 Type 38 rifles were seized; Taisho Type 11 light machine guns, also commonly known as crooked handles, have six; There are four Type 92 heavy machine guns! Nearly 200,000 rounds of weapons and ammunition of all kinds! As for what kind of "King Eight Box" Type 14 pistol, there are also a lot of things like Japanese command knives.

If the capture of the two squads after the total annihilation of the second battalion was a small fortune, then this time it is really a big fortune!

After the battlefield was cleaned, another two hours had passed. The news in the direction of Lao Ye Temple, the center of this battle, also came silently. The result was obvious, the Eighth Route Army won a beautiful victory. The Japanese army can only swallow this bitter water with hatred, and it should not be done again in a short time.

"Captain! Found a live mouth here! ”

Just when Yue Siliang was thinking about these things, a little soldier in the distance found a Japanese soldier who still had a trace of breath, and hurriedly reported it to Yue Siliang.

"Huh? Take me there! ”

Yue Si's conscience moved, as if he had thought of something. When the second battalion had completely annihilated the two squads, he had given an order not to take prisoners. Because he knew the temperament of the Japanese army very well, the crazy bushido can be said to be rooted in the hearts of these people, and it was difficult to guarantee that this group of people would not do something to fight back when they were treating the prisoners. In the end of the battle of Pingxingguan in history, there was not a single prisoner of the Japanese army!

"Look, Captain, here it is."

With the warrior leading, Yue Siliang saw the living mouth they were talking about. This guy looked extremely miserable at this time, it looked like he had been injured in hand-to-hand combat, he should have had a bayonet pierced hole in his chest, and a gap in his left ear was also grazed by a stray bullet. Now he was lying there breathing hard, and his eyes were stunned.

"Commander, do we want this captive or not?"

Lei Zi beside him asked tentatively, after seeing the tenacity of the Japanese army, he didn't dare to underestimate the other party, even if it was just a wounded Japanese soldier.

"No, I am responsible for the safety of the soldiers, and I can only give him a good time."

As he spoke, Yue Siliang pulled out a matching gun from his waist and pointed it at the wounded Japanese soldier. As if he saw Yue Siliang's intentions, a glimmer of clarity returned to the wounded's eyes. There was fear in his eyes.

"And consciousness, isn't it? I'm sorry, don't blame me. ”

Yue Siliang was about to pull the trigger as he spoke, when the wounded man suddenly moved, and he struggled to turn over and lie on the ground.

"Click......"

The soldiers around Yue Siliang immediately drew their guns and wanted to kill the other party on the spot. On the contrary, Yue Siliang stopped Lei Zi with some curiosity. He had a hunch that the Japanese soldier in front of him was a little unusual.

Later, they saw the wounded Japanese soldier trying to hunch his legs, lying on the ground and his head up and down, and his movements looked extremely strange.

"This?"

"He's kneeling and kowtowing."

Yue Siliang saw a hint of clue and motioned for Lei Zi to turn him over. At this time, the eyes of the wounded Japanese soldier were full of pleading. Seeing this, Yue Siliang could feel that the wounded man in front of him really had no fighting spirit. It is impossible for a cunning person to pretend to be so weak.

"Remove all the weapons on him, find out his identity, carry him to the back to do first aid, and if he survives, he will be strictly guarded."

"Yes!"

The fighters rushed up and began to search the wounded.

"Captain, I found this."

The soldier who found him handed over a military certificate to Yue Siliang. Turning over the bloody certificate, the first page was written in Chinese characters with the name of the wounded: Kobayashi, Hikari.

……

After putting the team in order, Yue Siliang looked at the corpses of the sacrificed soldiers that had been collected. He took a deep breath and shouted at the soldiers who were lined up.

"Today! We sacrificed 200 comrades! We haven't experienced such a loss for a long time! But! That's not to say we didn't play well! We fought this battle beautifully! The Japanese army also left more than 300 corpses here! It can be said that since the beginning of the war against Japan, such a casualty ratio between the two sides has never appeared on the battlefield in China!

We can say that we have encountered a formidable enemy like never before! But fear not! Because it is we Chinese who win after all! By what? It's up to you! I, Yue Siliang, salute the sacrificed and living brothers! ”

Yue Siliang's waist was straight, and he saluted all the soldiers of the 424th Regiment seriously. With a bang, the warriors also raised their hands to salute those who had died.

"Team out!"

With a shout, the 424th regiment all left here. The corpses left by the Japanese army have long been buried, leaving only the smoke of gunpowder in that place.

People don't have time to shed tears, because they spend all their time shedding blood for tears.

The Battle of Pingxingguan was the first battle of the Eighth Route Army against the Japanese army since the beginning of the War of Resistance Against Japan. This battle played the prestige of the Eighth Route Army, not only made the Japanese army recognize the Eighth Route Army, but also made other friendly forces in the second theater realize the Eighth Route Army.
