He Sanliang's first axe slashed at the artillery position of the Japanese puppet army. From the dense firepower of his frontal blockade, you can hear the number of machine guns on Li Ziyuan's side, which obviously occupies a great advantage. But the threat of Japanese artillery fire was huge for these machine guns.

Although the battle was fought at night, as long as the guide in front was effective, the lethality of the Japanese artillery fire would not be too small. What's more, the muzzle fire of the machine gun at night also provided a fairly accurate lock target for Japanese artillery fire. If these cannons are not knocked out, the pressure on Li Ziyuan's side will not decrease.

He moved quite quickly, and with a temporary force of two hundred captured men, he rushed left and right after engaging the enemy. When encountering the resistance of the Japanese puppet army, it is a bayonet plus *. Coupled with a few light machine guns drawn from the reconnaissance company, as well as the intensive firepower of several flower organs, a bloody path was cut out of the puppet army's position, and it went straight into the artillery position of the Japanese puppet army.

Of course, He Sanliang moved quickly and progressed with such high efficiency, except that most of the troops in front were already puppet troops at this time, and there were no Japanese troops participating in the battle except for the artillery over there. There is another reason, that is, the army he brought with him, which was still composed of prisoners of war before, may be for the sake of shame, or to avenge the crimes suffered in the prisoner of war camp, almost going crazy.

When these prisoners of war were rescued, if the prisoners of war had not been pulled by the Eighth Road this time, the captured pseudo-garrison members would have almost been beaten to death by these angry prisoners of war. Especially the squadron leader, who was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, plus at least a few broken ribs. The anger accumulated in the hearts of these prisoners of war is not ordinary, and their eyes are red when they return to the battlefield this time.

Although the puppet army in front is well-equipped, its combat effectiveness is not bad. But after all, it is a puppet army, and when the Japanese army supervises the war or has an absolute advantage, the will to fight can be relatively strong. But at present, the eight roads in front of him have not been solved, and such a group of killing gods have been killed behind them, so that these puppet soldiers are a little unbearable.

And at the same time that He Sanliang was killing behind the Japanese puppet army, the frontal blocking force also launched a comprehensive counterattack. What kind of person is Li Ziyuan, if he can't seize this opportunity, he won't be Li Ziyuan. Seeing that the Japanese puppet army killed a force behind it, it disrupted the position of the Japanese puppet army in front of him. Li Ziyuan did not hesitate at all, and concentrated all his troops to launch a counterattack.

The firepower of this unit, which was composed of former prisoners of war led by He Sanliang, was not very strong. Although the three light machine guns and a few flower machines drawn from the reconnaissance company were strengthened, the density of firepower was still somewhat limited. By the time Li Ziyuan launched a counterattack, the density of firepower was a world of difference.

Li Ziyuan's counterattack force actually used more than ten light machine guns to open the way. Plus overwhelming *, and *. Two infantry companies with bayonets lined up and killed them directly under the cover of fire from ten heavy machine guns behind them. Without the threat of artillery fire, Li Ziyuan is now very arrogant.

A regiment of the puppet army, which was the main force in person, could not withstand the blow in the end. Leaving behind a large number of weapons and prisoners, they scattered all the way to the southeast. And it doesn't matter if these puppet troops are scattered, but all the artillery behind them who are seeing the situation behind them is not good and are being collected are directly exposed in front of He Sanliang.

When He Sanliang led this team to the artillery position of the Japanese puppet army. It just so happened that the artillery of the Japanese puppet army was unable to carry the infantry and was retracting and trying to transfer. He Sanliang faced the guards of an infantry squad of the Japanese army, and let go of his hands and feet and rushed into the Japanese puppet artillery who had just put on the heavy artillery and pulled the horses to prepare to retreat.

Seeing the eight roads rushing over, the puppet artillery directly dropped the artillery that had been put on the horse, except for some of the unlucky ones who were slow to pull their legs, and the rest directly collapsed on the spot. However, the Japanese artillery was quite fierce, using the few weapons at hand to resist desperately, while either rescuing the artillery to break through, or buying time to blow up the artillery.

When Li Ziyuan and Zhang Zijian led the troops with a frontal counterattack to disarm the puppet army all the way and rushed all the way over. Of the two Type 38 field guns and two Type 99 heavy mountain guns carried by the Japanese army, only one Type 99 heavy mountain gun was left that had been blown up by the Japanese army.

As for the two old Krupp mountain guns of the puppet army, there are two mortars that remain there intact with shells. And the Japanese squad that was on guard against the artillery, although it bought time for its own artillery to blow up the artillery, had already suffered casualties at this time. After Li Ziyuan arrived, he didn't bother much.

After roughly solving the problem here, He Sanliang handed over the prisoners in his hand and others to Li Ziyuan. He took a company of the 2nd Battalion and pounced from behind the two Japanese squads that were fighting with the 2nd Battalion, trying to completely solve this Japanese army.

And those two Japanese squads were not stupid, from the time He Sanliang bypassed his position, he knew that something was wrong. It's just that they entangled the troops of the second battalion in front of them, but they were also entangled by the second battalion. Unable to get rid of the Japanese army of the second battalion in front of him, he could only watch He Sanliang lead the troops, bypassing his flank and plunging directly into the rear of his flank.

When the gunfire gradually subsided, the two Japanese squads, who knew that something was wrong, immediately set out to find a way to get rid of the entanglement of the second battalion in front of them. All the way to the southeast, fighting and retreating, trying to get rid of this entanglement of the eight roads. It's just that they want to run, but at this time they don't do it in front of the second battalion commander.

Grandma's, I almost missed a big deal by letting you entangle you before. Now you want to run, how can there be such a good thing. Even if I can't eat you, it's still okay to hold you back and wait for the main force to arrive. This Japanese army wanted to run, so the commander of the second battalion took one of his own companies in turn and pestered them.

One desperately tries to get rid of wanting to run, and the other is entangled all the way, no matter what you want to do, it won't let you run. By the time He Sanliang arrived, the Japanese army tried their best, but they could not get rid of the entanglement of the second battalion in front of them. One force has at least a relative advantage, and one has a slightly higher tactical level. Although they are entangled all the way, no one can help anyone.

He Sanliang has already led the team to arrive, and the Japanese troops who are in a hurry to retreat have not yet run out for two miles. When both sides were struggling, they happened to be caught up by a company led by He Sanliang. It's already this time, so what else is there to say.

After the reinforcements led by He Sanliang arrived, with the cooperation of a mortar brought by He Huizhang, it was a machine gun with a head and a face. A company discharged three columns of attacks, held a rifle with a bayonet, and under the cover of light and heavy machine guns behind it, rushed directly into the ranks of the Japanese troops.

And behind them, Li Ziyuan, who had already arrived with the troops, saw He Sanliang killing here, but he smiled and didn't speak. He knew that He Sanliang needed a channel to vent the depression accumulated in his heart at this time. And these two squads of Japanese troops are naturally a good target.

He Sanliang will let him go, but the two infantry squads that have already suffered nearly half of the casualties. If the two of them are under the absolute superior firepower, and they can't solve it in a short time, he He Sanliang will not be He Sanliang. So Li Ziyuan basically didn't ask about the battle situation on He Sanliang's side.

On the one hand, he led the troops to hurry up and clean up the battlefield, and on the other hand, he took the other hundreds of captured personnel brought by Ma Yongcheng behind. Before Ma Yongcheng arrived, Li Ziyuan looked at the troops brought by He Sanliang, but there was an imperceptible sly smile on the corner of his mouth.

And patted the shoulder with some amusement, the creepy second lieutenant who was teased by his sly. The hint of sly smile on the corner of Li Ziyuan's mouth was not seen by others, but the second lieutenant standing in front of him could see it clearly. Although when Li Ziyuan faced him, he didn't say anything except a few words of encouragement.

But this second lieutenant was a little uneasy by Li Ziyuan's sly smile. Until Li Ziyuan evacuated here, he didn't figure out why this Eighth Route Commander was laughing so weirdly. By the time he finally figured out the true purpose of the smile on the corner of Li Ziyuan's mouth, it was already a long time later.

After meeting with Ma Yongcheng, seeing that the old guy was so stubborn in the end of this sneak attack battle, and he made such a big move, Li Ziyuan could only shake his head and smile bitterly. Who would have thought that a sneak attack war would be because the sneak attackers were a little too greedy, and some incidents that were accidental but eventually became inevitable, and finally turned into a stalemate war.

Although the sneak attacker succeeded in the first step, he was almost not counter-attacked during the evacuation stage. The problem still lies in Zhang Zijian, who commanded the sneak attack on Xiyaogou, and when he arrived at Xiyaogou to launch a sneak attack, in addition to the previous report of the reconnaissance company, he did not reconnoiter the enemy situation in detail again.

As a result, the puppet army garrison force in Xiyaogou has not changed. However, the hostile situation around Xiyaogou has changed to a certain extent. It is true that there is a baggage unit of the puppet army in Xiyaogou, but it is also a supply ground for the Japanese army in the Lingchuan battlefield. It is not only the puppet army that is valued, but the Japanese army attaches more importance to the safety here.

In fact, the ultimate reason for the change in things actually has to fall on Li Ziyuan's head. Because after receiving the report from Tsuruta Nunan, Li Ziyuan's department has now entered Huguan and is missing after leaving Shili Ling, and the Japanese puppet army units at the junction of Huguan and Lingchuan must be strengthened after the news.

The Japanese army in Lingchuan moved quickly, and immediately ordered the regimental headquarters of the puppet army, which was originally stationed south of Xiyaogou, to carry the rest of the troops and strengthen a battalion of another puppet army, and with the cooperation of an infantry squad, all entered the perimeter of Xiyaogou to set up defenses. When the scouts sent by the reconnaissance company arrived at Xiyaogou, these reinforced forces had not yet arrived.

However, by the time the sneak attack troops commanded by Zhang Zijian arrived, these Japanese puppet troops had already arrived one after another. Although the Japanese army only had one squad, the puppet army had increased by two battalions. Together with the original two battalions, the three battalions, the heavy machine gun company to which the regiment belonged, as well as the mountain artillery company and the mortar company, formed an inverted zigzag deployment on the north and south flanks of Xiyaogou.

In addition to the reinforcements of the puppet army in place one after another, at the same time, the Japanese artillery department that withdrew from the Lingchuan battlefield and prepared to go north to Huguan was also escorted by an infantry squadron and entered the southeast direction of Xiyaogou. After replenishing ammunition at Xiyaogou the next day, he was going north to join Tsuruta Numa's clearance operation.

If it weren't for the fact that Xiyaogou is located at the junction of Huguan and Lingchuan, the strategic location is very important. But after all, it is only a small village, and it can't accommodate so many Japanese puppet troops at all. I'm afraid that what Zhang Zijian touched was not a piece of fat, but a group of hot hedgehogs.
