Chen Shizhang, the commander of the 40th Division, was standing beside Huang Baitao, and he also felt a hot burning on his face.

Chen Shizhang wanted to defend himself by saying that the equipment of the L Regiment of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army in Southern Anhui was much better than that of the L18th Regiment, and the training was better than that of the L18th Regiment, but even he himself felt that this reason was too pale, and the equipment training was only superficial.

To put it bluntly, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in southern Anhui participated in the Battle of Huluwei Valley, and they had a psychological advantage in the face of the Japanese army.

And the first army, in the face of the Japanese army, almost never had a victory, not to mention the psychological advantage, when facing the Japanese army, the legs and stomach can be regarded as very brave.

"Military seat, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in Southern Anhui has started a white-knuckle battle with Little Japan," the adjutant suddenly shouted.

"Huh?" Huang Baitao and Chen Shizhang looked stunned at the same time when they heard this, and then raised the telescope in their hands again.

"It's ...... Sun Lao Leopard? The high-magnification telescope zoomed in extremely close to the battlefield ahead, and Chen Shizhang saw at a glance the officer of the Southern Anhui Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army who rushed to the front, although he couldn't see the outline of his five tubes clearly, but just looking at his figure, as well as the crisp and neat assassination action, Chen Shizhang felt extremely familiar.

At the beginning, Sun Laobao was in the 40th Division, but he was the leading assassination master

"Sun Lao Leopard?" Huang Baitao's eyes also fell on Sun Laobao, who was crisscrossing the battlefield, and asked, "Brother Shizhang, are you talking about that assassination master?" ”

"Yes." Chen Shizhang said bitterly, "He used to be from our army. ”

Huang Baitao's face sank in an instant, such a brave officer failed to stay in the first army, and actually let Xu Shijiu recruit him, and then look at the officers under Xu Shijiu, Gao Shenxing, Li Mu, and Li Zihan are all not good at stubble, even Niu Sigen, a patrol officer from a wild road, is now a strong general

Could it be that Xu Shijiu really has a temperament, so he can attract so many brave people?

Or is there a trait in Xu Shijiu that can make his officers subtly transformed, and one by one from a cowardly and incompetent person to a brave and good general?

"Junza, we may lose this contest." Chen Shizhang said.

Huang Baitao nodded, and sighed again: "It's certain to lose, I hope you don't lose too embarrassed." ”

Chen Shizhang pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and asked, "Junzao, do you want to let the guard battalion enter the battle now?" ”

According to the agreement between Xu 19 and Huang Baitao, both sides could only invest one regiment to participate in the battle, however, neither side agreed that no other battalion could be temporarily strengthened to the regiment that was put into the attack, so Huang Baitao took advantage of this loophole and temporarily incorporated Chen Shizhang's guard battalion into the L18th Regiment as a general reserve.

Now that the progress of the L18th Regiment is slow, it is necessary to put in a more combat-ready guard battalion.

However, once the guard battalion is put into battle at this time, then after the collapse of the small Japanese front, the L18th Regiment will not be able to draw too many troops to pursue and kill, in this case, the number of enemy killed and the results of the battle will be greatly reduced, which Huang Baitao does not want to see, so he really refused: "No, it's not time yet." ”

It's not for nothing that assassins like to hold bayonets in the back.

The bayonet is held straight, basically only two actions can be stabbed and split, and if the bayonet is held back, there can be many complex actions such as wiping, piercing, picking, cutting, hooking, etc., and it is more concealed before the knife is released, and it is more difficult to prevent, of course, if you do not have a strong foundation in assassination, the reverse grip of the bayonet is purely to find death.

However, a veteran like Sun Laobao will certainly not be looking for death.

Taking advantage of the short moment when the Japanese second lieutenant slashed the air, Sun Laobao hit the Japanese second lieutenant in the abdomen with a knee, and the Japanese second lieutenant suddenly curled up with a painful snort, Sun Lao Leopard held the bayonet in his hand and then stabbed it down, and the head of the Japanese second lieutenant was pierced, and the blade of the stabbing blade pierced the back of the Japanese second lieutenant's head and then out of the mouth.

The Japanese lieutenant was pierced in the brain with a bayonet, and he was killed on the spot without even saying a word.

Another Japanese soldier rushed over with a bayonet, and Sun Laobao even flashed half a body to the side, narrowly avoiding this knife, and at the same time that the little Japanese bayonet slid against Sun Laobao's cheek, Sun Laobao had already pulled the bayonet out of the head of the Japanese second lieutenant, and wiped it from the throat of the Japanese soldier like lightning.

Just heard a pop, the hot blood splashed violently, Sun Laobao rushed forward again, but the Japanese soldier fell to the ground on his knees, and a stream of bloody arrows flew from his open neck, kneeling for a moment, the Japanese soldier fell to the ground heavily, and the red blood instantly became red on the ground under him

In a sparse pine forest on the left side of the battlefield, there were occasional bursts of dull neighing of horses.

The war horse was psychic, and the oolong had already smelled the smell of iron and blood from the air, and began to become restless, Peng Wu had to keep caressing the oolong's neck in order to control its restless emotions a little.

Huang Baitao thought of a way to exploit the loophole, and of course Xu Shijiu would not wait.

Xu 19 also temporarily incorporated Peng Wu's cavalry battalion into Li Zihan's L regiment, but the cavalry battalion did not participate in the first stage of the offensive, Xu 19's idea was actually the same as Huang Baitao's, and the task of the cavalry battalion was to wait for the complete collapse of the small Japanese front before killing, and use strong mobility to expand the results of the battle.

Although from the perspective of the battle situation, the offensive of Li Zihan's L Regiment was obviously more fierce than that of the L18th Regiment of the National Army, and the LL8 Regiment had broken forward less than 500 meters away, and Li Zihan's L Regiment had already advanced nearly a thousand meters, but after all, there was only one squadron of Little Japan opposite the L18th Regiment, and there were three squadrons opposite Li Zihan's L Regiment

Therefore, no one dared to guarantee that Li Zihan's L Regiment would definitely be able to break through the Japanese defense line in front of the L18 Regiment.

And once the L18th Regiment breaks through the Japanese defense line first, even if it is only ten or twenty minutes ahead, it will have an advantage in the number of enemy killed, after all, compared to the engagement stage, it is more capable of killing and injuring the enemy in the pursuit stage, Xu Shijiu does not want to lose to Huang Baitao in this battle.

Of course, the field troops of small Japan generally do not collapse on the whole front, and even if the whole army is destroyed, it rarely collapses on the whole line, and this may have something to do with the weak combat effectiveness of the national army, but on the Chinese battlefield, especially in the first four years of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, there was indeed no such thing as the collapse of the main division of the Japanese army.

In the Battle of Xuzhou, the main forces of the Little Japanese Dipei Regiment and the 10th Division had been beaten to the point that the whole army was about to be wiped out, and they did not collapse.

In the battle of Wanjialing, the 10th Pei Regiment of Little Japan was even beaten to the point that only more than 500 remnants remained, but it also did not collapse on all fronts.

Therefore, even if you defeat small Japan on the frontal battlefield, there is no such thing as expanding the results of the battle, because the results you have achieved on the battlefield are already the most victorious results.

But the garrison of small Japan is not a combat force after all, once the situation is not good, it may collapse on the whole line, the small Japan on the opposite side has both field troops and garrison troops, as long as the field troops in front are defeated, that is, the 56th Independent Infantry Brigade, the remaining gendarmerie and puppet army and other troops, it will be the prey of the cavalry battalion wantonly killing.

Peng Wu was waiting for the signal, waiting for the order of the cavalry battalion to attack, unconsciously, the sunset had been resting on the hill, he took out his pocket watch to look at the time, the hour hand was already half past four in the afternoon, although it has now entered April, the days are much longer than in winter, but it is still less than two hours away from dark.

Peng Wu's face inevitably showed a trace of anxiety, if he still couldn't break through the small Japanese defense line within an hour, if he let the little Japanese drag it until dark, then his cavalry battalion would lose any effect, in the dark night, it was impossible for the war horse to gallop freely, and the cavalry could not participate in the battle.

However, no matter how anxious Peng Wu was in his heart, time was still passing little by little.

However, the signal that Peng Wu was expecting to attack never appeared, and the battle situation did not seem to be smooth

Although the gendarmerie and the puppet army of the old devil Haneda can't fight a tough battle, they can still fight a defensive battle by relying on the flank of the 56th Brigade of the Independent Infantry, although the offensive of Li Zihan's L regiment is fierce, but in the face of the three lines of defense built by the old devil Haneda on the right flank, it still seems a little reluctant.

In the final analysis, the anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in southern Anhui still lacked heavy firepower.

Even the artillery of the calf, because they could not keep up with the infantry, did not participate in the battle this time, otherwise, even if they only sent a few artillery bones to carry mortars, use flat aiming to shoot directly at Jishu, and accompany the infantry to carry out targeted elimination of small Japan's firepower points, it would definitely greatly reduce the resistance of the infantry.
