Chapter 429: Victory was not easy to come by
Seeing that the New Fourth Army, which was blocking him on the west side of the town, was defeated by the heroic Imperial soldiers, he breathed a sigh of relief and ordered his troops to quickly pass through the New Fourth Army's blocking position and rush west along the avenue.

Behind the Japanese soldiers who were running wildly all the way was a large group of panicked Imperial Allies, which were mixed with more than a dozen people wearing black pseudo-police uniforms.
The commander of the Ma battalion couldn't help but feel desolate when he saw that in addition to a company, there were only about thirty soldiers following him, you must know that he went to Sujiatang to assist Qiuchu Taijun in defending Sujiatang, but it was a full-fledged imperial association military camp, with more than 400 people, but in a blink of an eye, there were only about 100 people left.
If you don't have troops in your hands, you are nothing in the eyes of Little Japan, and you don't know what will be waiting for you when you flee back to Wangjiadian with Qiu Chu Taijun this time.
Just when the battalion commander Ma was worried about his troops, suddenly a fierce gunfire sounded in front of him, and his heart couldn't help but sink, and he turned his head to the company commander next to him and said, "Li Zhu, tell the brothers, everyone be careful." ”
The sound of gunfire from the front told him that the Imperial Army running in front had encountered the resistance of the New Fourth Army, and that there were at least two heavy machine guns in front of him, and as for the light machine guns, there were no less than five.
The imperial army running in front is less than 80 people, and it seems that the New Fourth Army is determined to destroy the imperial army.
Just when the battalion commander was hesitating in his mind whether to rush forward to reinforce the imperial army, the shouts of the New Fourth Army came from behind him, and the sound of surrendering with his hands raised was constantly heard.
"Battalion commander, what should I do? We are surrounded by the New Fourth Army. Li Zhu found that the figure of the New Fourth Army appeared around him, his heart trembled, and he looked at the commander of the Ma battalion.
The commander of the Ma battalion quickly looked around, and found that the New Fourth Army in the south seemed to be less, and immediately said: "Li Zhu, let's retreat to the south and go to Banqiaoji to find Division Commander Guo." Quick, while the New Fourth Army has not yet surrounded us, we will leave immediately. ”
It can be seen from the increasingly intense gunfire in front that the New Fourth Army is determined to eliminate Qiu Chu Yifu, and there are only so many people in their hands, and if they go further, it is simply to send them to death, and the only way out in front of them is to break through from the south and rush to Banqiaoji in the dark night.
Qiu Chu Yifu's troops crashed headlong into the blocking position of Ou Biaofei, and more than a dozen Japanese soldiers who ran in front were immediately beaten and fell to the ground covered in blood, and the rest of the soldiers could only retreat when they saw that the light and heavy machine guns of the New Fourth Army were blocking the road in front.
Qiu Chu Yifu turned his head to take a look and found that the shouts of the New Fourth Army were faintly heard behind him, but the battalion commander and others who were originally following behind were gone.
Thinking that the battalion commander Ma was very likely to leave his troops and flee by himself, Qiu Chu couldn't help but curse angrily.
The blockade of the New Fourth Army in front was like an iron wall, and Qiu Chu Kazuo asked his subordinates to launch two waves of charges, but they were all in vain under the impenetrable blows of the opponent, so he had to turn his eyes to the sides.
It's a pity that at this time, the first and second companies of the European standard flight have been surrounded.
Qiu Chu Kazuo commanded the troops to turn to the south to break through, and suddenly a few shells flew in, and they were falling into the ranks that were fleeing in a hurry, and immediately raised a few pillars of smoke, and by the way, brought up a few figures.
When the shells rained down, these fleeing Japanese troops finally collapsed, and could only run like lost dogs in the field.
Seeing this, Qiu Chu couldn't help but sigh, looked to the east with tearful eyes, slowly drew his saber, and then knelt down, and stabbed his abdomen with both hands.
Seeing the squadron leader commit suicide by disembowelment, the Japanese soldiers who followed him seemed to be enchanted all of a sudden, with red eyes and rifles with bayonets, braving the constantly falling shells, and rushed towards the south like crazy.
Rushing to the south was a platoon of the second company of the third battalion, and when they saw the devils rushing desperately, the sharp eyes of the platoon commander swept over, and he shouted machine gun preparation.
The two light machine operators immediately jumped out, holding their crooked machine guns flat, and the rest of the soldiers also raised their guns.
When the devils approached, with a long fight from the platoon, the soldiers opened fire one after another, and the devil soldiers who rushed desperately were beaten like fallen leaves in the autumn wind, and fell to the ground one by one.
However, after these devil soldiers paid a heavy price, more than a dozen devils still forced over.
The platoon leader shouted to retreat, and after taking the soldiers back for more than ten steps, more than a dozen soldiers took out grenades and threw them at the devil, and a violent explosion sounded, bringing up several figures, taking advantage of this vacancy, the soldiers behind were loaded with bullets.
Before the smoke cleared, another fierce gunshot rang out, and the remnants of the devils were finally defeated.
Seeing that there was no devil standing in front of him, the platoon leader breathed a sigh of relief.
When Ou Biaofei learned that the fleeing devil had been eliminated, he immediately picked up the phone excitedly and reported the good news to the political commissar of the regiment commander.
As soon as he put down the phone, a company commander walked in with a face full of shame.
"Battalion commander, I couldn't complete the task, and the one surnamed Ma ran away from the south with a company of the Imperial Cooperative Army."
"What? The surname Ma ran away, what are you doing to eat? "As soon as I heard that a company of the Imperial Association Army was released, the European Standard Flying Gas would not fight anywhere.
As soon as he reported the good news of the total elimination of the enemy to the regiment commander and political commissar, he made a fuss about running away from a company of the Emperor's Army, where did this make his face go?
"Battalion commander, or I'll take the troops to chase after me, even if I chase to the ends of the earth, I'll catch you with the surname Ma." The company commander gritted his teeth and said.
"Forget it, I'll ask the regiment commander for instructions, there is a company in the fourth battalion that is operating in the south, let them go and clean up the surname Ma." Ou Biaofei came back to his senses and asked the company to clean up the battlefield immediately.
After Liu Tianshu received a report that a company of the Imperial Allied Army had fled from the south, he immediately instructed Zhou Aiguo and Kang Shuidong to mobilize troops from the south to intercept it.
This Ma battalion commander of the Imperial Association Army is a ruthless guy, when he was in Sujiatang, he followed Qiu Chu Yifu to brutally kill four old people when he was sweeping a village, which Guo Sizhong remembered for him.
originally wanted to arrest him and take him to that mountain village to hold a public trial, but who knew that he would let this guy run away.
After Kang Shuidong received Liu Tianshu's telegram, he immediately instructed the three companies that were active in that company to quickly intercept the Imperial Allied Army.
The surnamed Ma ran south with the Imperial Army, and the most likely thing was to flee to Banqiaoji.
Sure enough, an hour later, the reconnaissance company reported that it had discovered the whereabouts of the Imperial Concord Army, and it was indeed fleeing towards Banqiaoji.
So, the fourth battalion and three companies immediately intercepted in front, at dawn, the fleeing imperial alliance army was blocked by the fourth battalion and three companies, the two sides fought fiercely for an hour, the fourth battalion and three companies eliminated this group of imperial alliance troops, however, did not find the shadow of the commander of the Ma battalion.
After interrogating the prisoners, the commander of the third company learned that the commander of the Ma battalion found that the situation was not good when the two sides were fighting fiercely, and took his confidant Li Zhu to take off his military uniform and escape into the mountains and forests.
Knowing that the fleeing Imperial Association Army was wiped out except for the battalion commander and a few of his cronies, Liu Tianshu was still satisfied with some regrets in his heart.
After last night's battle, Sujiatang was successfully recovered, and the Japanese puppet army entrenched in Sujiatang could be regarded as completely wiped out.
More importantly, after the 16th Regiment took control of Sujiatang, it divided the enemies of Wangjiadian and Majiaji. At this time, the two companies of the first battalion had approached the east of Majiaji, forcing the Japanese troops stationed in Majiaji not to dare to come to the west.
After the results of the battle were reported, Liu Tianshu handed them to Guo Sizhong after reading them, and Guo Sizhong saw that the third battalion had eliminated a squadron and a battalion of the Imperial Allied Army of the Japanese army in the battle of attacking Sujiatang last night, seized a large number of weapons and ammunition, and captured 112 prisoners of the Imperial Allied Army.
The 3rd Battalion suffered more than 100 casualties in last night's battle, of which 82 were killed, so to speak, in the battle of Fujiatang last night, the 3rd Battalion lost a company.
However, this casualty was worth it in Guo Sizhong's opinion, after all, the results achieved by the third battalion were much greater than the price they paid.
But Liu Tianshu didn't think so, he thought of eighty-two living lives, and in a blink of an eye, because of his own decision, he was buried in the intimate and familiar land of Sujiatang, but his heart was heavy.
This is war!
Thinking of this, Liu Tianshu's eyes felt a little moist.
Sujiatang was recovered, and the villagers who were transferred out naturally ran to tell each other, and then under the organization of local cadres, they returned to their homes one after another and began to clean up the ruins.
Especially the corpses of those devils who were killed, they still mobilized the villagers to help dig pits and bury them.
Although these devils are not human, they can't let them be corpses in the countryside.
As for Ishitani Saburo, he sent someone to contact him and prepare to bring back the corpses of these soldiers, but Liu Tianshu sternly refused, saying that because of the heinous crimes committed by the Japanese army in Maowan Town, they had lost the dignity that a soldier should have, and they were no longer worthy of the treatment of a soldier. He was tolerant enough that he didn't let the devil's head be cut off to show the public, and asked the traitor who came to contact him to go back and tell Ishiya Saburo that his wing had been disqualified from the Geneva Treaty, unless Ishiya Saburo could hand over the murderer in the Maowan Bloodbath.
When Saburo Ishiya heard the truthful report of the traitor who had been sent to contact him, he was so angry that he smoked.
He didn't expect Liu Tianshu to be so arrogant. However, thinking that overnight, Liu Tianshu ate up the strength of one of his squadrons, his mood was very heavy.
You must know that his wing has lost four squadrons since it swept Liu Tianshu's base area, that is to say, a reorganized brigade is considered to be completely annihilated, while his other brigade followed the main force of the brigade to the north, and is still in the Ningyuan area, and it cannot be built in a short time.
How to deal with Liu Tianshu's next actions made him quite nerve-wracking.
Matsumoto couldn't help but be shocked when he learned that his Qiuchu squadron had been completely wiped out, and even the Qiuchu squadron leader had committed suicide by disembowelment.
When the two squadrons of the First Brigade were ambushed in Jinzhutang and the whole army was wiped out, because he was not a soldier of his own brigade, he didn't feel much yet, and now his subordinates love to return to the East, so that he really felt Liu Tianshu's power. (To be continued.) )
