Looking at the Chinese troops swarming behind him, the remaining dozens of devil remnants were frightened and scattered, and they all drilled into the barren grass on both sides of the road.

Whoosh ...... Seeing this, the officers and soldiers of the dragon tooth who were chasing after him hurriedly opened fire with light machine guns.

Dense bullets whistled in, breaking some grass stalks on the spot, and hitting the devil soldiers who had just escaped in, knocking down a few on the spot.

The rest of the devils ran wildly, and they didn't even dare to turn back and fight back, and they couldn't form an army.

In stark contrast to the swagger and high spirits when they came, at this time it was important to escape, and what bullshit bushido spirit became a joke.

"Brothers, hurry up, don't run away with these little bitches!" Holding a light machine gun, Scarface was the first to rush into the roadside barren grass and yell.

Like a hungry wolf that hasn't eaten for a long time, he hunts down every prey that tries to escape.

Eventually, dozens of remnants of the devils were chased by the hungry wolves of the Dragon's Tooth Task Force and intercepted on the edge of a pond two kilometers away from the ambush site.

The devil soldiers who had no way to escape turned around and wanted to fight with bayonets, but the officers and soldiers of the dragon tooth did not give them this opportunity, and the machine guns and submachine guns in their hands swept away, and the battle was resolved.

After spending half an hour cleaning up the battlefield and taking away all the captured guns and ammunition, Qiao Youhua led his troops to quickly move north along Taierzhuang and hide in the northern mountains.

Although Qiao Youhua's elite combat effectiveness is strong, the number is only more than 700 people, at best it is a reinforced battalion, since it is a strange soldier, it must play the role of a strange soldier, of course, it will not stay in Taierzhuang and fight hard with the Japanese army!

He has to wait for the most critical time, as a surprise soldier, to give the Japanese army a fatal blow, as the so-called good steel is used on the blade! The battle just now was just a small test to frustrate the Japanese army's spirit.

Of course, the battle damage of a squadron is also very small for the Japanese army, and it is difficult to hurt the fundamentals!

Two hours after the end of the battle, the Chinese defenders in Taierzhuang and the scouts sent by the Japanese army in Zaozhuang discovered the ambush battle, which had ended.

They all reported to their respective commands.

…………

Due to geographical relations, the latest news was obtained by the Chinese defenders in Taierzhuang, so the Fifth Theater Commander's Department in Xuzhou got the news before the Segu Detachment Headquarters.

In Xuzhou City, in the theater headquarters, Li Zongren, deputy commander Xu Zuyi, Bai Chongxi and others were transferring troops and preparing to gather and annihilate the Segu detachment that was deep in the lone army.

An operational staff officer walked out from the confidential room with a telegram in his hand, with a complicated expression, and saluted Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi and others: "General, Chief Bai, I just received a telegram from Sun Lianzhong that a small force of about 200 people in the forward line of the Japanese army encountered an unknown armed ambush in the northwest of Taierzhuang, and the whole army was annihilated!" ”

"Huh?" Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi were stunned at the same time when they heard this, glanced at each other, and saw doubts in each other's eyes.

Li Zongren asked the combat staff officer: "What, unknown armament?" ”

"Yes, General Seat, Sun Lianzhong's department did not send troops to ambush him, and there was not a single corpse of Chinese soldiers left at the scene, so it cannot be concluded that it was our army that ambushed the Japanese army." The combat staff officer replied with his head held high.

"It's strange, if it is a local anti-Japanese armed force, how can it be possible to encircle and annihilate a devil squadron in such a short time? Besides, it is impossible for the local anti-Japanese armed forces to have this combat effectiveness. Li Zongren said very incomprehensibly.

Bai Chongxi pondered for a moment and said, "Delin, could it be Qiao Youhua's Dragon Tooth Task Force!" ”

"Qiao Youhua? Dragon's Tooth Task Force? Li Zongren was obviously surprised.

"Well, I thought about it carefully, the anti-Japanese forces gathered in the southern and northern Jiangsu regions, except for Qiao Youhua's task force, can have this combat effectiveness in such a short period of time, and eat a squadron of the Japanese army, and there is no second one. And without God knowing. Bai Chongxi nodded.

After a pause, he analyzed: "Since the end of the defense of Nanjing, Qiao Youhua and his task force have disappeared and lost their whereabouts, think about it carefully, they should have come to Xuzhou to participate in the war!" ”

Li Zongren nodded thoughtfully: "That makes sense, then why didn't he get in touch with the theater command?" ”

In Li Zongren's opinion, if such an elite force can obey his command, it will be more beneficial to the Ju Annihilation Segu Detachment.

Bai Chongxi smiled indifferently and said: "Brother Delin, don't think about commanding Qiao Youhua, after the Battle of Nanjing, he has become the target of everyone, and the reason why he hid it is to avoid the search and arrest of the Japanese special high school and the military commander, and now with the enthusiasm of national righteousness and loyalty to the country, it is already the limit to take the risk of leading his troops to participate in the war."

He categorically will not expose the whereabouts of his department, and you can rest assured, Qiao Youhua's strategic vision is not below you and me, and his tactical command ability is even more perfect, reaching the peak, he can keenly capture the fighter plane, and dispatch at the most suitable and suitable time on the battlefield to give the Japanese a fatal blow! ”

"Moreover, Qiao Youhua's Dragon Tooth Task Force has another advantage in being hidden, that is, the Japanese army has to be on guard at all times, like a sharp sword hanging over the devil's head, no one knows when he will be cut down!"

Li Zongren nodded, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

…………

Zaozhuang, the headquarters of the Laigu detachment.

The old devil Kai Nagase was drinking, and the successive victories had already made him a little carried away, so he completely ignored the ban on alcohol in the Japanese combat units.

A big saber walked in from the outside in a hurry.

Kai Nagase, who was already seven or eight points drunk, looked up when he heard the sound and found that the person who came was his 10th Wing Captain Akashiba Yaezo Daisa.

"Chichai-kun, you are dripping just right, come and drink two glasses with me!" Nagase Tani beckoned drunkenly.

Chichai Yaezang sat down and said, "General, I just got the news that a reconnaissance squadron of our department was ambushed by the Chinese army fifteen kilometers northwest of Taierzhuang, and after a fierce battle, more than 180 warriors of the imperial army were all wiped out. ”

"What? A reconnaissance squadron wiped out? Nagase Valley Kai was shocked when he heard this, and most of the wine woke up in an instant, sat up straight and said: "Yagaya Road, this group of hateful Chinese troops even dares to ambush the imperial army, Chichai-kun, you immediately lead the 10th Wing to advance towards Taierzhuang immediately, in addition, the cavalry brigade and artillery wing are also equipped with your department to fight, and I will also ask the commander of the 2nd Army, General Nishio Shouzo, for aviation support."

Limit your troops to capture Taierzhuang within two days, and we will be the first to attack Xuzhou and capture alive Li Zongren, the commander of the Fifth Theater of Operations! ”

"Hay! Please rest assured that the general will go all out to break through Taierzhuang! Chishiba Yaezo suddenly bowed his head and responded.

"Don't worry, you drink this glass of wine before leaving." Kei Nagase personally served a cup of sake for him.

"Thank you, General!" Chishiba Yaezo took it with both hands, drank it all, stood up, saluted, and turned around and left with a saber in his stride.
