Chapter 2: The Hunt

After the Japanese set fire to the village, they had to retreat in a hurry without having time to search the battlefield further. The reason is that the military reinforcements have arrived, and if the xiǎo devils don't withdraw, they will all be taken prisoner.

The one who came to reinforce was Liu Yimin, the instructor who Tang Xiuer was bent on sniping, and he was accompanied by the No. 1 Special Operations Squadron and the No. 1 Guard Battalion of his guard unit. Of course, Tang Xiu'er didn't know about this situation, she saw the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army galloping in the direction of Qianzhao Village, thinking that the army had arrived, and she had no intention of fighting anymore, so she led the remnants of the defeated army into the car and ran in the direction of the Jiagou stronghold.

After setting out from Qianzhao Village, the two soldiers sent by Zhao Yonggang for help advanced along the rural road from Jiagou to Shunhe, and met Liu Yimin and his party who had gone to Fuliji to inspect in the four miles east of Shunhe.

After talking with Zhang Aiping, Jiang Shangqing, and Yang Chun yesterday afternoon, Liu Yimin was in a happy mood, and had a few drinks with Zhang Aiping and them at dinner in the evening to congratulate them on the establishment of the Northeast Anhui Special Committee. After a few glasses of wine, I slept sweetly at night. When he got up in the morning, Hu Laohu sent a telegram, saying that he was about to evacuate Su County and go south, take the main force of Xiǎo devils to Mushroom, and ask the division commander to inspect the troops in Su County and meet with the cadres and soldiers. With this farewell, maybe you won't see the division commander for a month or two.

Hu Laohu's telegram was sincere, Liu Yimin also considered that the task of the cavalry brigade was too heavy, as long as the main force of the devils went south, there would inevitably be planes in the sky and tanks on the ground, and it was not known how many soldiers would die on the way south. It is very necessary to meet with the cadres and soldiers of the cavalry brigade before the war. Looking at the weather again, we know that the first sunny day after the snow is followed by the melting of the snow and the mud all over the ground. No matter how strong the Xiǎo Devil Heavy Army Group is, it is impossible for it to go south so quickly. Their tanks are so good that the car is absolutely unusable in the current conditions of muddy roads. Therefore, Liu Yimin left the headquarters of the Chen family in Hunan early in the morning, and rushed to the county seat of Suxian County on horseback with the No. 1 Special Operations Squadron and the No. 1 Guard Battalion.

When they set off, the comrades all went to the entrance of the village to see them off. Liu Yimin saw Tang Xingying and Li Yun holding Ping'er and holding He'er behind them on the plateau, looking at him pitifully through the cracks.

Thinking about himself and Ni Hua, they are like newlyweds every day, lingering in love, but Tang Xingying is so pitiful that she is like abandoning fù. She is so arrogant, if she didn't love herself, where would she bitterly take her two sons and mother to the south with the army? It's almost the New Year, Tang Xingying and Li Yun don't talk about it, it's normal to wear old military uniforms for the New Year. But when his son was fighting with the army, he was wearing an old cotton jacket that came out of cotton, and he couldn't even eat delicious meals, and Liu Yimin's heart was like a needle prick.

Liu Yimin couldn't help but go over and hug He'er and kiss him twice, and told his son that he was going to buy him new clothes, buy burners, and buy firecrackers, and asked his son if he wanted it.

When the three-year-old baby heard it, she shouted that she wanted to follow her father, eat and burn, ask for new clothes, set off firecrackers, and celebrate the New Year. In the end, Tang Xingying was hard-hearted, and she held back her tears and pulled her son back.

Because of this chā song, after Liu Yimin left the Hunan Chen family in the border between Lingbi and Suxian, he did not go directly to Suxian, but led the guard troops, and hurried in the direction of Fuliji, stepping on the snow. Fu Li Ji Yao jī is famous, Liu Yimin ate it before the crossing, and the taste is gluttonous when he thinks about it.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yimin wanted to give his son nòng to eat, but on the way, he met two soldiers who could drive a train sent back by Zhao Yonggang to ask for help.

Seeing that the two soldiers were soaked with snow and their mouths were cold, Liu Yimin hurriedly asked Li Xiǎo Shuai to bring some wine for them to drink. As soon as he heard that Zhao Yonggang had fallen into the encirclement of devils in Qianzhao, Liu Yimin immediately ordered the 1st Special Operations Squadron and the 1st Guard Battalion to turn around, hurry up, and rush towards Qianzhao.

Seeing the division commander, Zhao Yonggang only said "Tang Xiu'er", then fell to the ground and fainted.

The special combat team is Liu Yimin's heart, and it is also Liu Yimin's invincible pioneer, and he has not sacrificed a single soldier since its establishment. Now it's a good thing, they were chased and killed by the Japanese special combat team led by Tang Xiu'er, 10 of the 13 people were sacrificed, and the remaining Zhao Yonggang and the two soldiers inhaled a lot of smoke and were already unconscious, I don't know if they can be rescued.

Thinking of Li Chengyi, Lu Wen and Wu Le who sacrificed on Han Xinling, Liu Yimin's heart burned with rage. , a Japanese royal princess dares to be so arrogant, and kills herself again and again. Needless to say, this Tang Xiu'er went south this time, chasing and killing Zhao Yonggang, they were just a chā song, and the goal was still themselves. She's hell-bent on her own life!

Liu Yimin sent people to send Zhao Yonggang and them back to the field hospital for treatment, and transported the bodies of the martyrs back to Chen's house in Hunan for burial.

After Tang Xiuer and Nishimura Yong fled back to the Jiagou stronghold, they immediately ordered the Japanese puppet army in the Jiagou stronghold to strengthen their vigilance to prevent the Eighth Route Army from coming to retaliate. At the same time, a report was sent to the commander of the Twelfth Army, Lieutenant General Iida Sadagu, reporting on the situation of the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army's Xiǎo troops, and requesting Iida Sadagu to quickly send troops south for reinforcements.

Tang Xiu'er didn't think about escaping back to Xuzhou immediately, this time, the speed of the car was too slow after installing snow chains, and it was likely to be chased by the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army in the wilderness. With the main force of the instructor easily destroying the firepower of a division of the Japanese army, Tang Xiuer knew that once the army was encircled, it would be a dead end. Is this the second time, Tang Xiuer is bent on sniping Liu Yimin, and now she has not found Liu Yimin's exact whereabouts, how can she flee back to Xuzhou in despair? The third reason is simpler, Zhao Yonggang and they marched in the snow all night, and they went into battle cold and hungry. Although Tang Xiu'er and the special combat team led by her advanced by car, the soldiers were also cold and hungry in the snowy night, and they needed to rest a little at the Jiagou stronghold, light a fire to keep warm, and recover their strength.

Nishimura Yong is the Japanese army's special operations jīng Ying, although his special operations squadron did not take advantage of the former Zhaocun battle and suffered heavy casualties, but he knew that the Eighth Route Army was also a special combat team, and it occupied a defensive advantage, and it was normal for his special combat team to suffer some losses. Retreat to the stronghold of Jiagou like now, there are strong fortifications, even if the Eighth Route Army chases him, he is not afraid, his special combat team is the jīng Rui of the jīng Rui, all of them are 100 shots, as long as the Eighth Route Army is not afraid of death, then they will be fulfilled. Therefore, Isamu Nishimura, who consciously felt embarrassed in front of the princess, also jumped into the leap and tried to create a miracle in the Jiagou stronghold.

As for whether the army will come to attack the Jiagou stronghold, Tang Xiuer, including Nishimura Yong and the Japanese squadron leader of the Jiagou stronghold, all know in their hearts, the snow is so thick, and the ruts of their car wheels have already pointed out the direction of pursuit for the Eighth Route Army. With the prestige of Liu Yimin's tutor, then the permanent division of Jīng Rui is not in their eyes, and where can Xiǎoxiǎo's Jiagou stronghold curb their retaliation**. It was impossible for the Eighth Route Army not to come and pursue.

The only thing Tang Xiuer didn't expect was that the Eighth Route Army that came to pursue turned out to be Liu Yimin's guards, and it was Liu Yimin and Wang Laohu, two masters, who came to chase and kill.

After chasing after Jiagou, Liu Yimin climbed the serpentine mountain south of the Jiagou stronghold, climbed in the snow and used a telescope to see that there were five cars parked in the devil's stronghold, indicating that Tang Xiuer and the special combat team led by her were still in the stronghold and did not leave.

Putting down the binoculars, Liu Yimin pulled Wang Laohu, Li Xiǎo Shuai, Huang Wenhu and Zhang Dalei, Wang Dongqiang, Liao Guangming, and Luo Jie to open the snow place.

According to Liu Yimin's deployment, Li Xiǎo Shuai and Huang Wenhu commanded the fire support company of the 1st Guard Battalion and the supporting fire infantry artillery of the 1st Special Warfare Squadron to establish a position south of the ditch and shell the Japanese stronghold, and the 1st Company of the Guard Battalion to establish a defensive line at the artillery position to prevent the Japanese army from attacking southward. Zhang Dalei, the captain of the 1st Xiǎo Team of the 1st Special Warfare Squadron, led the 1st Xiǎo Team and the 2nd Guard Company to establish a position south of Jiagou and block the way for the Xiǎo devils to flee eastward. Wang Laohu commanded Wang Dongqiang's special operations 2nd Xiǎo team and the 3rd Guard Company to seize the Jiagou station, block the Xiǎo devils' escape route to the west, and at the same time sabotage the railway, install bombings, and prepare to deal with the Japanese armored patrol vehicles that might move south from Xuzhou. Liu Yimin himself led the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Xiǎo teams of the special operations team back to the mountains north of Jiagou, and attacked from north to south after the shelling began, destroying the Japanese stronghold in one fell swoop and killing Tang Xiu'er.

After the deployment, Liu Yimin said to everyone: "Tang Xiu'er is a high-level killer sent by the Japanese emperor to assassinate me. Tell the soldiers that if they find her, they will immediately organize a fire net, cover her in the fire net, and kill her. Whoever has a slight weakness in his hand can be killed by her. Do you understand what I'm saying? ”

After the cadres answered, Liu Yimin ordered the action to begin, and he led three special combat teams down the Serpentine Mountain and made a detour towards the Turtle Mountain to the north of Jiagou.

Although Li Xiǎo Shuai and Huang Wenhu were both veterans of the Red Army, they had rarely had the opportunity to go to the battlefield since they served as Liu Yimin's guards, and it was the first time that they had commanded a battle alone. Now that the opportunity has come, both of them are very moved, and even the artillery positions are selected by them personally.

After the artillery position was established, Li Xiǎo Shuai and Huang Wenhu saw Liu Yimin and they were advancing towards the turtle-shaped mountain through the telescope, and Wang Laohu and they were almost close to the target, so they began to count one, two, three, and four in their hearts, until they counted to two thousand, and Liu Yimin sent back the order to open the cannon, and Li Xiǎo Shuai jumped up and shouted loudly: "Open the cannon!" Fire! Fire! ”

With Li Xiǎo's order to open artillery, the five mén infantry guns of the five Xiǎo teams of the 1st Special Warfare Squadron and the mortars of the fire support company of the 1st Guards Battalion all began to shell. The cannonball streaked across the town of Jiagou and smashed into the courtyard of the devil's stronghold.

After the first shelling, the parameters were corrected, and the second shelling was effective. The five cars parked in the courtyard of the stronghold were hit one after another and began to catch fire.

Although Tang Xiu'er has strong martial arts and marksmanship, she has a specialization in the art industry, and the skills she learns are all one-person enemies, and she will kill them with one blow, and she has never learned the ability to lead troops to fight against 10,000 enemies. If she learns too, it is estimated that Emperor Hirohito will have to keep his eyes open when he sleeps, so as not to be attacked by his secret killer. You must know that the palace has always been a place where ambition and ** are breeding, and how many yīn plotters were like children at the beginning, and later became a blue-faced and fanged devil in Vanity Fair. The emperors of Japan received Han culture education from Xiǎo, and even studied the imperial mind art in Chinese history, and prevention was a compulsory course for them.

Tang Xiu'er had already expected that the Eighth Route Army would launch a pursuit, but she thought that the Eighth Route Army was chasing from the eastern plains and should attack directly from the east.

In her mind, the Eighth Route Army must have launched an intensive charge towards the Jiagou stronghold from the east, in this way, with the continuous firepower of her special combat team's German-made submachine guns and the fortifications of the Jiagou stronghold, the corpses of the Eighth Route Army would be covered with snow, and it would be no problem to hold on for a day. For this day, even if Iida Sadagu in Xuzhou is stupid, he will urge the arrival of reinforcements. At worst, she can also lead the special forces team to retreat to the mountains to the north or west of the stronghold. As long as he entered the mountains and forests, he felt that the Eighth Route Army would not be able to pursue the troops.

As soon as the artillery shells of the Eighth Route Army exploded in the courtyard of the stronghold, Tang Xiuer suddenly realized that the operation of the Eighth Route Army was different from what he thought, they wanted to blow up the car with artillery shells first, so that they could not escape quickly, and then use artillery shells to destroy the fortifications of the stronghold in Jiagou, so that the imperial army in the stronghold would lose the fortification barrier. If this is the case, the light and heavy machine guns of the Eighth Route Army can cover the stronghold of the ditch, and the soldiers will be beaten to the point that they will not be able to raise their heads, and they will be killed at the first time, let alone shoot and block the attack.

Tang Xiu'er's bowels are blue now, she knew that this is the way the infantry fights, so there is no need to pursue the Eighth Route Army's Xiǎo troops, leading the special combat team to act quietly disguised as the Eighth Route Army, maybe you can also finish off Liu Yimin's command and establish miraculous achievements. Now that it's over, escaping back to the Jiagou stronghold is equivalent to entering a cage, and if you don't know it, Jīng Rui's special combat team will be buried in the army's artillery fire, and the loss is really not worth it.

As for whether she could get out by herself, Tang Xiuer didn't even think about it. She was so skilled, if she wanted to escape, she believed that the Eighth Route Army attacking the stronghold would not be able to keep her.

Tang Xiu'er, who had woken up, did not dare to hesitate, and sent three telegrams to Iida Zhengu in succession, asking Iida Zhengu to quickly dispatch planes to support the battle, immediately send mechanized troops south to reinforce them, and immediately send troops to take a train south to attack the Eighth Route Army.

Tang Xiu'er didn't know that after the commander of the Twelfth Army, Iida Zhenggu, received her telegram, he was so shocked that his soul was about to fall. If the princess of the imperial family was killed or captured by the Eighth Route Army in Jiagou, Iida Sadagu would be in great trouble.

Iida Sadagu also wanted to send planes to support the operation, but at this time, the runways of the airfield were all dirt runways or sandstone runways, and the heavy snow last night closed the airport, so how could the planes take off? The only thing Iida Sadagu could do was to strictly order the 6th and 16th Divisions to move south quickly, and order armored patrol cars to cover the rapid southward movement of the army train. However, no matter what measures were taken, Iida Sadagu didn't know if it was too late, and he kept praying in his heart that Amaterasu would appear and bless Her Royal Highness the princess with peace and well!

Iida Sadagu also knew that Amaterasu was easily distracted, and often ignored the pleas of the people, so he sent a report to Princess Junmiya Hideko, asking Her Royal Highness to leave the army at the moment of crisis for the sake of the Japanese Empire and His Majesty the Emperor can no longer be disgraced, and strictly ordered Nishimura Isamu and the devil squadron leader in the Jiagou stronghold, even if all Yù Shatter to protect the princess's safety.

At this time, the Japanese strongholds were basically built with brick and wood turrets, and pillboxes were attached. Just when Tang Xiu'er was restless and communicated with Iida Zhengu's telegram, the infantry artillery and mortars of the Eighth Route Army had already begun to shell the Japanese artillery tower. This kind of turret can be used against guerrillas without artillery, but it is simply a joke when it is used against such a large army as the instructor of the Eighth Route Army. No, I don't know which gunner calculated so accurately, a shell actually drilled through the shè hole in the turret, and with a "boom", the turret of the xiǎo devil collapsed, and the Japanese puppet soldiers guarding the turret were killed and wounded, and the lucky ones escaped, ignoring the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army and the dirt on their faces, screaming, holding the rifle with the bayonet on it, and about to charge the artillery position of the Eighth Route Army.

The artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army must have been built outside the heavy machine guns and grenadiers of the Xiǎo Devils, otherwise, the Eighth Route Army would have established artillery positions there, and the heavy machine guns and grenadiers of the Xiǎo Devils would have been covered with firepower, and the joke would have been a big one. For the instructors of the units, which already had an artillery command and a dozen artillery regiments, such a low-level mistake was absolutely impossible to make.

The artillery bombardment of the Eighth Route Army continued, shells kept exploding in the devil's stronghold, and all Japanese fortifications that could be observed through telescopes would be named by the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army.

By this time, there was no longer any need to hold on to the stronghold. Nishimura had the courage to come to see Tang Xiu'er and ask Tang Xiu'er to agree to retreat.

Nishimura snorted and said: "Your Royal Highness Princess: This is only light artillery, if the Eighth Route Army transfers a heavy artillery regiment, the stronghold of Jiagou will be razed to the ground, not to mention people, even a mouse will be difficult to survive." ”

The leader of the Japanese garrison squadron in the Jiagou stronghold now knows that this beautiful girl who is almost a fairy is Princess Junmiya Hideko. Originally, he hated these people very much, if they hadn't come and let himself pursue the Eighth Route Army in Qianzhao Village, the troops would not have suffered such a big loss. The Eighth Route Army occupied the county seat of Suxian County and Fuliji, but did not come to fight Jiagou, which shows that they have no intention of occupying Jiagou at all. Now it's okay, in the battle of Qianzhao Village, so many soldiers died, and it also attracted the revenge of the Eighth Route Army. This girl, looking at the elephant fairy NV, is actually a scourge. But now that I know that this is the legendary Princess Jungong Hideko, the leader of the devil squadron doesn't hate it, and feels that it is also very honorable to die for Her Royal Highness the Princess. Therefore, he proposed that Nishimura lead a special combat team to cover the princess's retreat, and he commanded the remnants of the Japanese puppet army in the stronghold to resist desperately and drag the Eighth Route Army.

Only then did Tang Xiuer remember that she didn't understand operational command, which didn't mean that Nishimura Yong and this squadron leader didn't understand operational command. They all graduated from the Army Non-commissioned Officer School, and they learned to command and fight wars. Should listen to them!
