Yoshimasa Oshima was in a fit of rage, and the Japanese army led by Noburo Yamano caught up, and a squad leader stepped forward to report the situation.

Oshima Yoshimasa couldn't help but say, and a slap slapped him, "Yaga, you waste, with nearly four times the enemy's strength, you haven't wiped out the enemy army, you all eat dry food?" Yaga! What about the Yamano Noburo wolf? Hurry up and let him come over to me! ”

The squad leader had already been fanned high, and replied vaguely: "Hai! Your Excellency General, when Noburo-kun Yamano was encircling and suppressing the Qing army in the mountains and forests, he was seriously injured and unconscious for the Qing army, and he was being rescued in the back......"

"Ahh Oshima Yoshimasa exclaimed, "Yaga, you are all waste, so many people, instead of annihilating the Qing army, they seriously injured their commanders, you are all a shame for the imperial samurai, you should be seppuku!" ”

The squad leader was full of grievances and replied: "Your Excellency General, this Japanese Qing army moves quickly in the mountains and forests, climbs over mountains and mountains as if walking on flat ground, and at the same time marksmanship is extremely accurate, almost no bullets, and is also good at camouflage and hiding. In just a few moments, dozens of our Imperial soldiers have broken the national jade......"

At this moment, a fine cold sweat broke out on Oshima Yoshimasa's forehead, this Qing army is too powerful, even compared to the rumored British mountain battalion, it is not inferior. Although Honda Nakasa was injured before, it was only a minor injury, so after bandaging it and resting for a few days, there was nothing to do. However, Noburo Yamano is also an adjutant and a squadron leader, and now he is seriously injured and in a coma, completely losing his command ability. It seems that this Qing army targeted a group of middle-level officers for a sneak attack, and defeated these middle-level officers, so how did they command the thousands of Japanese soldiers under them? It seems that if you don't concentrate your forces and firepower and hit them hard, you won't be able to march quickly and catch up with the main force of the Qing army.

"Herald!" Oshima Yoshimasa pondered for a moment and said, "Order the artillery battalion to move to the right, keep a certain distance from the main force, adjust the Zhuyuan, prepare for battle, transfer ten Rinqin machine guns on the left flank, and be ready to fight at any time, all officers, pay attention to hiding their tracks, and don't be attacked and killed by the Qing army again." The army moves on! ”

Oshima Yoshimasa completed his deployment and led the army to continue advancing.

In the mountains and forests not far away, Zhang Yi quietly observed, his blue wolf brigade had been delayed here for three or four hours, if it went well, presumably now the main force of the Qing army has been under the leadership of Nie Shicheng, got rid of the entanglement of the Japanese cavalry, and opened a distance of fifty or sixty miles from the main force of the Japanese army.

While Zhang Yi was thinking, there was a movement of the march of the large army in the distance, Zhang Yi raised the binoculars to take a closer look, and the main force of the Japanese army drove up again......

Let's say that since the cavalry of the Japanese army got rid of the entanglement of the deputy middle battalion, they began to desperately chase after Nie Shicheng's main force of the Qing army, intending to continue to contain Nie Shicheng's retreat.

The cavalry of Xiaoben Shanmu had just rushed out of the road of seven or eight miles and came to the corner of a mountain peak, when suddenly the guns and cannons rang out on the opposite hillside, and the harsh sound of the roar of the Green cannon and the mountain cannon resounded in the sky in an instant. Bullets and shells rained down on the Japanese cavalry. Xiao Ben Shanmu patronized and urged the horse to chase after him, but he didn't expect that Nie Shicheng actually left an ambush here, and he was caught off guard by being beaten, and the man turned on his back.

Xiao Ben Shanmu hurriedly shouted: "Everyone retreat towards the fields in front of the right flank and leave the range of the ambush artillery fire!" In the roar of artillery fire, the voice of Xiaoben Shan Mu could only be heard a few meters away, where could the many cavalry hear, fortunately, there were heralds on his side, hurriedly shaking the herald flag, giving orders. After a long period of busy work, the cavalry squadron broke out of the fire circle of the Qing army's ambush, and in the blink of an eye, dozens of people were killed and wounded.

Xiaoben Shanmu looked at the terrain and saw that the ambush soldiers of the Qing army were on top of the mountain, condescending and occupying a favorable location. His own cavalry, good at fighting on flat ground, using speed to attack the enemy's formation. For the attack on the steep slope of the mountain, there is no place for the slightest, and without the support of mountain artillery fire, to attack the Qing army on the mountain is tantamount to a moth throwing fire and killing itself. But this road is covered by their firepower, who knows how many ambushes there are, forced through, and their hundreds of cavalry don't know how many people can break through. If the casualties are too large, then you will want to retreat after containing the Qing army.

Xiao Ben Yamamu hatefully ordered: "The lightly wounded stay to take care of the seriously wounded, and retreat to join the detachment behind." The rest followed me around and continued the pursuit! With that, he galloped towards another line of defense.

Zhao Shixiao on the mountain, watching the Japanese cavalry detour from a distance, was happy with Nie Shicheng's careful arrangement, and ambushed the Japanese cavalry halfway, which was more enjoyable than fighting with them, while severely damaging the Japanese cavalry, he still had no losses, but it was a pity that his cavalry had been killed and wounded, otherwise, he would definitely leave this Japanese cavalry here. Now I can only evacuate quickly and catch up with the military gate.

Zhao Shixiao waved his hand and said, "Order your troops to retreat immediately and chase after Lord Junmen along the road......

At this time, the main force of the Japanese army had already stepped into the range of firepower of the Blue Wolf Brigade again, and the sky had completely darkened, Zhang Yi narrowed his eyes to see that the main force of the Japanese army had come closer. Zhang Yi waved his hand and shouted: "Fire!" Beat! ”

Suddenly, the blue wolf brigade in the mountains and forests opened fire together, shooting wildly at the Japanese army. However, this time, unexpectedly, the Japanese army did not have any panic, and quickly lined up under the attack.

Zhang Yi faintly felt a little bad in his heart, and shouted: "Everyone disperse, don't gather together, immediately disperse and hide!" ”

Zhang Yi's order was exited, and it was less than ten seconds before everyone dispersed, and the heavy machine guns of the Japanese army on the opposite side had begun to fire fiercely, suppressing the people of the blue wolf brigade and making it difficult to move, Zhang Yi still shouted: "Everyone disperse immediately and look for cover!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the mountain cannon on the opposite side rumbled. Dozens of shells poured down in the middle of the mountains and forests in an instant, hitting the grass, trees, mountains and rocks flying wildly, fortunately, everyone had gradually widened the distance and dispersed just now, even so, I am afraid that there will still be casualties.

Zhang Yi hammered his head hard, careless, damn it, this time the loss was big, damn it! Zhang Yi roared: "Everyone take care of the wounded around them nearby, and quickly move towards the depths of the mountains and forests to avoid the firepower of the devils!" ”

After that, he led everyone to evacuate to the depths of the mountains and forests, and the Japanese troops behind frantically launched artillery bombardments. After a few rounds of shelling, Oshima Yoshimasa sneered and ordered: "The third detachment, the fourth detachment, immediately rush into the mountains and forests, and be sure to annihilate this Qing army!" ”

The two Japanese troops roared and rushed into the mountains and forests, and began a large-scale search, shooting intensively while slowly advancing forward.

It's almost midnight now, and although the blue wolf brigade is good at field combat, but in the mountains and forests, after all, it is inconvenient, and once it engages, it will definitely cause greater casualties to itself. Zhang Yi didn't dare to fight, and led everyone to withdraw for several miles before he gradually stopped.

Zhang Yi counted the number of people, the team of more than 70 people, after the shelling, there are now less than 60 people, those who are not there have been sacrificed in the shelling, in addition to more than a dozen wounded people who have withdrawn together, this is the first time that the blue wolf brigade has suffered major losses. Zhang Yi looked at the brothers of the family, and his distressed heart was dripping blood, this is the absolute elite that he and the military gate have worked hard to train, and the powerful team that will expand his strength in the future, more than a dozen people died at once, and even Tan Feng and Zhang Yihu were injured.

The crowd was silent, and some of the brothers had begun to weep for their brothers. Zhang Yi's forehead was bruised, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Okay, don't cry, manly man, don't shed blood without tears!" Today's hatred, we will return it to the devil tenfold and hundredfold. , cheer up, we're not completely out of danger yet, hurry up and continue to evacuate. Get ready for your next ambush! ”
