Before Liu Zhiyuan could speak, Han Xing hurriedly interjected and said: "Then don't you need to say it, beat the water dogs, this devil has already been defeated, the boss has been killed, and there is no fighting spirit, we must not let them cross the Yellow River and run to Jining." ”

Fan Zhuxian said: "But my large army is in the north of the city, and it may be tonight or tomorrow, the enemy will have to withdraw." It's too late to transfer troops. I only have these dozens of people here, and I can't fight anymore. ”

Liu Zhiyuan knew that Fan Zhuxian's words were only half of what he said, and that half of the words were only waiting for him to add them, so he immediately answered: "Commander Fan, don't worry, one of my battalions is ready, just wait to beat it." Commander Fan, please watch the battle! ”

Fan Zhuxian shouted and said, "Okay! That's up to you. In this battle, I will never intervene, just be a bystander, the two of you will take a look, okay! ”

Han Xing and Liu Zhiyuan looked at each other and nodded in mutual understanding. Liu Zhiyuan said: "The team has finished eating and will set off immediately. Commander Fan, I have to listen to your opinion, tell me, where should we set up an ambush this time? ”

Fan Zhuxian smiled slightly and said: "I have already said, I will not intervene in military matters this time, and the two of you will set up an ambush wherever they see it." ”

Han Xing said: "Didn't we set up an ambush in Shitombtou Village in the morning, and did we set up an ambush again in Shitombtou Village this time?" ”

Fan Zhuxian frowned and said, "Repeat the ambush, are the devils prepared!" ”

Han Xing said: "It was precisely because we set up an ambush at the head of the stone tomb in the morning that the devil thought that we would never set up an ambush there again, so we just set up an ambush there again. Fighting a war is gambling, shall we gamble again? ”

Liu Zhiyuan nodded and said, "I agree to set up an ambush in Shitombtou Village, let's gamble once." The first is that the head of the stone tomb has been destroyed, and it is easy to get by, and the second is that we have mortars, and the firepower has already overshadowed the devils. ”

The plan has been decided, Liu Zhiyuan's troops quickly arrived at Shijiaotou Village, and then planted mines to occupy the favorable terrain, and there was no need to dig the gun hole, it had already been dug a long time ago. At the bottom of a tall house, a ladder was erected, and as soon as the battle started, Fan Zhu was invited to go up to the house to watch the battle.

Just as dawn was underway, the car fleet in Puxian drove over. Why do the devils in Puxian County retreat with cars, because Puxian is an important springboard for the battle of Xuzhou, so a large number of materials have been gathered in Puxian, and Puxian County is connected to Qingfeng in the north and Jining in the south, and the diameter of the distance is 180 kilometers away, and the middle is Fan Zhuxian's sphere of influence, so it is necessary to use cars to transport troops and materials. also suffered the captain of the Big Bird Wing, and the Japanese puppet army led by these 2,000 people worked hard to support Puxian for nearly three months, but in the end he couldn't escape death, and was bombarded by Liu Zhiyuan's mortar.

Liu Zhiyuan took the telescope and observed the enemy's car team, "one, two, three...... there were more than 100 vehicles in total, and there was about a squadron of cavalry behind them, which was basically dispatched from the nest, that is to say, the devils were going to withdraw from the county seat of Puxian.

The devil's car began to enter Shijiaotou Village, entered the east of the village, and drove out from the west of the village, one, two, three...... Forty or fifty cars drove out of the village.

Fan Zhuxian asked anxiously: "Why don't you fight yet!" ”

Liu Zhiyuan said calmly: "If you can't eat, don't hold on." ”

When the devil's car drove out of the village, there were about 60 cars, Liu Zhiyuan shouted: "Hit-" The mines were first sounded, and then machine guns, mortars, rifles, and grenades were violently fired.

There were more than 20 cars that entered the village, and in an instant, these 20 cars were reimbursed, but there were still more than 60 cars out of the village, and more than 30 cars that did not enter the village. The devils in the car immediately jumped out of the car and rushed down the road towards the village with their rifles loaded with bayonets. The machine guns on the car also rattled and ......rattled.

At this moment, countless black mortar shells flew out of the stone tomb village, like black old eagles, covering the sun in mid-air, first flying westward, almost in a straight line, sweeping all the way. "Boom, boom......" "Boom, boom......"

Anyone who has been a soldier knows that there is nothing terrible about the shells one or two, and the veteran soldier can even avoid the shells when he listens to the sound and rolls on the ground. But if hundreds of shells fall down together, it will be troublesome, and you can only hear "whoosh-" "whoosh-" "whoosh-" "boom-" "boom-" everywhere It is really full of fire, no matter how big the world is, there is nowhere to hide, and mortars can fire a shell every 2 seconds, which is faster than a single-shot rifle, which can blow up the little devils.

The devils who left the village were almost hit by mortars, and many cars were blown up, and many of the charging soldiers were also killed. Those who are not dead can only shoot blindly before dying according to the earthen fences, broken walls, and broken houses in Shijiaotou Village for a while. The bullets were fired a lot, but they seemed to be a little farther away, long beyond the effective range, and had no effect at all. It is exactly what the theory of weapons says, one inch is long and one inch is strong, one inch is short and one inch is dangerous, rifles and machine guns can't hit people, but mortars can hit you just right.

This is really a great sorrow in life, I can only be beaten by others, and the weapon in my hand has become a burning stick, which is useless.

But the devil who came out of the village was still drunk and didn't recognize half a pot of wine, gritted his teeth and stared at the flesh and blood rushing forward. After a lot of effort, braving hail of shells, they had just rushed to the edge of the village, and at 80, 60, and 50 meters, they were suddenly surrounded and suppressed by more than 20 machine guns.

"Quack, quack, ......" and "suddenly......" dozens of devils instantly fell under the airtight machine guns, and those behind were not afraid of death, and continued to rush forward, and were swept down by the machine guns again.

The devil soldiers are stupid, but they are not all stupid, there are still smart, and Captain Watanabe belongs to the wise man. As soon as he saw that he couldn't fight like this, he scolded fiercely: "The Zhina troops, the firepower is great, ours can't do it!" If the fight continues, the people will be finished, and the supplies will be finished. ”

He hurriedly gave the order to stop the offensive, got into the car and prepared to retreat. It was because of the great wisdom of Squadron Leader Watanabe that the lives of these little devils and the remaining supplies were saved.

The devils got into more than 20 cars that were not blown up, and then drove the cars to rush around, and finally ran out of the range of mortars, and there was no need to worry about their lives for the time being.

In addition, there are more than 30 cars that have not entered the village, and there is a squadron of cavalry behind them, which has just been blocked outside the village by machine guns, rifles, and grenades, and has not yet tasted the taste of mortar shells. At this moment, the mortars freed up their hands and bombarded the more than 30 cars and devil soldiers.

The key to victory in a battle is often within a few minutes. If the devil's cavalry had attacked, they might have rushed into the village long ago, weren't they organizing, and they might have launched a cavalry charge soon.

Fire, smoke, rotten meat, half-cooked horse meat, broken guns, blown up machine guns, broken car parts, all flew into the sky in an instant...... Among them, the one who suffered the most losses was the cavalry. The cavalry is tall and mighty, and the infantry that is scattered is the best at impact, but there is an advantage and a disadvantage, and the most feared is the cannonball, the Yanmar has a big target, and the cavalry sits on the horse, and it is even higher, but it is also the easiest to be attacked by the cannonball, and the safe angle of the cannonball is not to be used.

After a while, some of the ghost soldiers who were burnt out, ragged, and dizzy rushed out of these clouds of smoke, as well as the war horses and knights who were not killed, and they didn't know where they had been bombed. They shouted "babble, ......, and showed their greatest devotion to the Japanese emperor" in the spirit of bushido, and then rushed madly towards the village of Stone Tomb.

Of course, there was no good fruit to eat, and a dozen machine guns, rifles, and grenades beckoned at them one by one. The devil in front fell, but the one behind continued to rush forward......

Another great wise man appeared, he was the leader of the Nakano squadron, and when he saw that it was really impossible to fight like this, it was no different from entering the slaughterhouse. So he ordered the attack to be stopped, led these devils to avoid Shijitou Village, and retreated along the field path in the direction of the Yellow River.

As for the car, I don't want it, if I want it, it's in vain, and if there is no road, what is the use of the car. Back to Pu County, don't think about it, since they can get out of the gate of the county, they also know that they can't go back, and the road has long been blocked by the Chinese soldiers. Of course, it goes without saying how many militia groups have to avoid the harassment and obstruction of the militia along the way. That's the matter of the militia group, and the militia finally seized such an opportunity, so they have to show it well.

Liu Zhiyuan's camp rushed out of Shijitou Village, there was a cheer, and the big gift to them was dozens of cars and supplies on the cars, as well as fragrant half-cooked horse meat. The cars were loaded with clothing, weapons, ammunition, etc., but there was no grain and grass, and if there was food and grass, the devils would not be hungry enough to harass the people, and the war horses would not be released to eat the crops of the people.

Of course, this battle was a complete victory, our army suffered very few casualties, only about 20 people, and annihilated more than 200 devils, as well as countless supplies. A guard brought a large ocean horse to Fan Zhuxian and said, "Commander Fan, let's ride this, ride majestic!" ”

Fan Zhuxian shook his head and said, "We can't get used to riding this foreign horse, so it's better to ride my bicycle comfortably." So Fan Zhuxian still rode his bicycle and led the team into Puxian County. Subsequently, a large army from the north of the city also came to converge, and the two armies joined together.

Fan Zhuxian immediately sent troops to search the city for a day to prevent the enemy from laying mines, and at the same time searched and cleared the outside of the city. Subsequently, Commander Fan led the agency to live in the county government of Xijie in the city, and posted a "notice of peace for the people" in the name of the commander-in-chief, to the effect that the Japanese invaders were entrenched in March, and the people's lives were ruined. Now that you are victorious, you still need to be vigilant and strengthen your defense in case the enemy returns.

Fan Zhuxian also resettled the victims, personally visited the victims' homes to offer condolences, and the government helped build the damaged houses. A small celebration was also organized by the government, which was attended by about four or five hundred local gentry, district heads, militia heads, local authorities, and the masses.

After the meeting, the masses sent many condolences to them, but Commander Fan refused them and did not accept them, so Fan Zhuxian said to the masses: "Now that the national crisis is at the forefront, the burden on the masses is very great. The recovery of Puxian County is our duty to defend the land. If you receive these things, do you love the people, or do you increase the burden on the people? ”

Commander Fan stayed in Pu County for a few days, that is, he went to Wei County, Hebei Province to meet Commander Xu Xiangqian through Kou County and Guantao. Except for the 13 detachments of Ji Zhenguo, who lived in the Guyunji area of Fanxian County, the rest of the detachments returned to their original stations, and on the way back to their stations, they were warmly greeted by the local people, and they were all celebrating the great victory of their army.
