The advance team of the Japanese army attacking Laiyuan was blocked on the march, not only the long-range artillery was lost, but even the short-range mortars were also lost more than half, the heavy machine guns were lost, more than 400 soldiers were killed, more than 300 people were wounded, and the sound of wolf howls was incessant, so the morale of the Japanese army was very low for a while. The staff officer advised Commander Fujita Shokawa to shrink his forces and retreat back the way he came, in order to join up with the large force led by the brigade commander Norihide Abe before making a decision.

But Fujita Shokawa was a little hesitant, he knew that now that the troops had suffered serious losses, if they returned in vain, as a commander, he would have to bear the main responsibility, not only would there be no hope for his career, but he might even be sent to a military court, in this case, he might as well have a seppuku to thank the emperor now.

Fujita Shokawa was silent for a while, pondering the pros and cons, and finally decided that he could not retreat. He gritted his teeth and was about to make a desperate bet when he suddenly heard fierce gunfire and explosions from the rear of the line.

Fujita Shokawa chuckled in his heart, and the herald ran to report that the rear team was attacked by the Jin Sui army of about 100 people, and the opponent's fire was very fierce, and more than half of the 200 soldiers responsible for escorting supplies had been killed or wounded, and they were struggling to support and ask for reinforcements.

When Fujita Shokawa heard this, he was immediately furious and roared, "Nani? Even the timid Jin Suijun dared to take the initiative to attack us, what a bastard! Immediately mobilize two infantry squadrons and a machine gun squadron, and I will personally lead the team to destroy them. ”

After Fujita Shokawa gave the order, he said to Inoue Hara, the captain of the 3rd Brigade standing aside, "Inoue-kun, I'll leave it to you here." ”

Inoue originally felt that there was something wrong with Teng Tian taking away a machine gun squadron. The reason for this is that the entire contingent is currently barely available as heavy weapons, with only about 12 heavy machine guns and a few scattered small-caliber mortars. Teng Tian took more than half of it with one shot (a machine gun squadron contained 8 heavy machine guns), and Inoue Hara certainly had an opinion in his heart.

Although Inoue Hara and Fujita Shokawa are the captains of the two brigades and are equal in position, it is only this time that Fujita Shokawa was temporarily appointed as the commander of the advance team, and in this case, Inoue Hara still has to obey Fujita Shokawa.

Therefore, although Inoue Hara had an opinion, he did not say it, but after Fujita led the team away, he immediately sent a report, reported the situation here to the brigade commander Norihide Abe, and asked for support.

Moreover, the commander of the 1st Brigade of the Kwantung Army, Norihide Abe, listened to the advice of his staff officers, assembled a team of about 6,000 people in the early morning, and set out from Wei County in a mighty manner, preparing to cross the Taihang Mountains and intercept the Chinese troops retreating south. Unexpectedly, as soon as they entered the mountainous area, they were continuously harassed by Yang Wucheng, an independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army, who was also ordered to enter the Laiyuan area, and the Japanese army walked for most of the day, not to mention the slow march, but the number of soldiers killed and wounded reached more than 500.

Abe Norihide was furious and scolded: "The Shina army is very cunning, and it does not dare to fight our army head-on, and will only attack us secretly, which is despicable. ”

The staff officer said: "Now that the Chinese army has learned our purpose, harassment along the way is inevitable. ”

Norihide Abe said dissatisfiedly: "How can we achieve our expected goal with such a marching speed?" ”

The staff officer said: "It's better to postpone the march first, and send troops to clear the Chinese army in the mountains on both sides of the road, on the one hand, you can solve the trouble once and for all, and on the other hand, you can paralyze the Chinese army, don't forget that we have two brigades that have set off in advance, and this time is probably close to Laiyuan." ”

Norihide Abe said, "Yo Xi, just do as you say..."

Before the words fell, the herald hurriedly sent a telegram, saying: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the advance team attacking Laiyuan has been blocked and has suffered heavy losses, and I have sent a telegram to request support. ”

Norihide Abe took the telegram and looked at it, and immediately shouted: "Yaga! Shokawa Fujita is such an idiot that he really deserves to die. Immediately order the 2nd Wing to rush to reinforcements! ”

……

Not to mention how Abe Norihide was in a hurry to send reinforcements. Shan said that Bai Fei used a bazooka to blow up the Japanese artillery and heavy machine guns, and when he was happily watching the Japanese soldiers in the distance scurrying around like headless flies, the individual communicator on the dumb man's back rang.

Bai Fei picked up the phone and said, "I'm Bai Fei, please speak." ”

Li Hu's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Captain, I'm Li Hu, and I'm with Captain Wang and Captain Li now." ”

"Oh?" Bai Fei was stunned: "Where are you?" ”

Li Hu said: "We are behind the devil's team, and we are preparing to him." ”

After Li Hu finished speaking, Wang Weiguo's voice came from the microphone, and he heard Wang Weiguo say: "Captain, we have just arrived, just behind the Japanese army, there are more than 200 Japanese troops guarding supplies, and we are ready to attack them." ”

Bai Fei thought for a while and said, "Then you must pay attention to safety, I will be there soon." After saying that, Bai Fei hung up the phone, took the mute, carried the two RPG-7s and the remaining four shells, and quickly headed towards the devil's rear team.

The battle of the rear team of the devils was soon started, and Wang Weiguo and Li Shuyang led the team to attack from the front and left side of the mountain road respectively. The two ordered the team to line up the light and heavy machine guns captured in the last battle, and the bullets were fired like rain at the Japanese soldiers on the opposite side, and the two 70 mortars and more than a dozen grenadiers behind them, and the shells kept pouring down on the Japanese soldiers as if they didn't need money.

More than 200 Japanese supply teams soon suffered more than half of the casualties, and the rest of the Japanese troops were still desperately not retreating, at this moment, Li Hu led a special combat team suddenly rushed out from the right rear side of the Japanese army, five people holding AKs to sweep people when they saw them, and after a shuttle of bullets was fired, they shook their hands and more than 10 pearl grenades. The devil was attacked on his back, and after a burst of explosions, the supply team was basically wiped out.

Just as the Protector Army soldiers were preparing to clean up the battlefield, a rescue team led by Shokawa Fujita, the commander of the devils, rushed over. Seeing that it was too late for rescue, Fujita immediately ordered the machine gun squadron to set up machine guns on the spot and strafe them.

Eight Japanese heavy machine guns opened fire together, and seven or eight Protector soldiers who were running in the front were suddenly beaten to pieces, and they could no longer die. Wang Weiguo and Li Shuyang immediately ordered the team to hide on the spot, which avoided further casualties.

Bai Fei happened to see this scene on the way here, and he immediately stopped in anger, and set up an RPG with the dumb two to shoot at the Japanese heavy machine gun position, and four grenades in a row not only completely destroyed the Japanese machine gun position, but even Fujita Shokawa, an old devil, was blown apart. Of course, Bai Fei didn't know at this time. He was extremely angry, and spent another 500 points of merit, exchanged for ten rockets, and kept shooting at the devil crowd, and the devil infantry was hit by the rockets and had no power to fight back, at the same time, Wang Weiguo and Li Shuyang also organized a team to launch a counterattack against the devil, and the devil was killed and injured a lot for a while. Bai Fei still had 5 shells left, and the devil had completely collapsed and ran back frantically.

In this battle, less than half of the more than 600 people brought by Fujita returned alive. Coupled with the more than 200 people in the logistics department of the devils who were eliminated, the death toll of the devils reached more than 500. The only sad thing is that in the battle just now, 19 people were killed and 10 wounded, but fortunately, the wounded were all minor.

After Bai Fei met with Wang and Li, he immediately ordered people to search for the devil's logistics materials, and found a lot of medicines and medical equipment among them. There are people in the original Jin Suijun team who have been wild doctors before, and although their medical skills can't be said, they can still treat some external injuries.

Bai Fei looked through the medicines of the Japanese army, and wondered why he didn't find penicillin (penicillin), the anti-inflammatory drug he was most familiar with, ---, but suddenly thought that penicillin was first available in forty-two years.

Bai Feixin said, "If this thing is made, how many fewer deaths will the Chinese have?" If it is sold to the European battlefield, it will make a lot of money. ”

He was muttering, and the special operations captain Li Hu ran over with a happy face and whispered: "Captain, we have made a fortune this time!" ”
