The news that Lingqiu came to help the friendly army had arrived in the Tieyingpan area and Laiyuan and the rescue force withdrew all the way, Shimizu Dazuo did not show too many changes in his heart after knowing it, for him, a trip to Beiping made him understand that there must be a rule to follow in the army - it is better to rely on no one than on yourself!

Qing Shui had already understood what the 47th Division was, and as soon as he heard that it was a land garrison division formed in China, or a lowest-level division, he didn't have much hope for this one, but Lieutenant General Anda, the teacher, had such a usable force on hand that could be withdrawn, and Qing Shui couldn't say anything.

He didn't know very well about the changes that had taken place in the North China Front Army and the entire Chinese Dispatch Army after he led his team from Fanzhi to the mountainous areas of northwest Hebei on the Eighth Road, and if he hadn't risked his life to fly back to Beiping, he wouldn't have known that there was such a battle plan to open up the mainland's lines of communication, and compared with the large-scale military operation involving the Kwantung garrison and the Guannai garrison using hundreds of thousands of troops, his special operations wing was indeed nothing.

Therefore, the only hope in his heart for the 91st Wing who came to the aid of the 91st Wing was that they would more or less attract some of the main forces of the Eighth Route, and that they could reduce some of the pressure on the way for their own Wing to break through, as for where the Kato Wing could hit, Qing Shui thought it didn't matter, it would be good if they themselves didn't get beaten by the Eighth Route!

And after two days of marching, the fierce siege and blockade of the Eighth Route that Qing Shui expected did not happen, which really made him very yìài, and the battle on the road from Yi County to Laiyuan County made him have an illusion instead, could it be that the main forces of his cāicè Eighth Route took advantage of him to break through and turned to attack the line of communication?

So when the night was stationed. Discuss the next day's action meeting. Qing Shui suggested compressing the overall formation. Speed up the march, turn the diamond-shaped troop configuration into an arrowhead, put the three infantry brigades in the front, march along the road like an arrow, and when encountering the resistance and resistance of the Eighth Road, the impact of the three infantry brigades is absolutely impossible for the Eighth Route troops to resist!

The artillery brigade was dismantled and reorganized, and all of them were assigned to the front line, following the infantry brigade to march and fight. Auxiliary troops such as baggage and engineers counted the materials overnight, and discarded all the unnecessary except for weapons, ammunition and food, and asked these auxiliary troops to also distribute guns and ammunition, and do a good job of fighting at any time!

Shimizu Dazuo decided to go to the first brigade, he led the staff officers and other personnel of the wing headquarters to act with the first brigade, and the adjutant led the law enforcement team to command the auxiliary troops, and Shimizu planned to take a day to forcibly march eighty miles to Shuibao Township!

The scout detachment reported that on the hill about two or three miles behind the wing, a small unit of the Eighth Route was spotted moving, and there were several small battles with the rearguard troops. The scout detachment found that most of these eight roads were a hundred and ten people, and they did not love to fight. As soon as they came into contact, they moved to the mountains, but they did not stay away, and always followed them at a distance of two or three miles.

At this point, Qing Shui remembered the reminder given to him by the pilot who was conducting reconnaissance in the air during the day, saying that around the direction of his march, there were many unknown small units in the valley that were faintly discovered, and according to what he saw, he basically maintained the same marching direction as the Qing Shui Wing, but they were only separated by one or two mountain beams or valleys.

Also based on the intelligence of zhègè, Qing Shui made up his mind to change the way the troops marched, he shrunk the main force back from the two wings, concentrated at the front, three brigades and two thousand people, enriched into the artillery in the brigade Each brigade can be divided into more than ten guns, with such a firepower configuration, plus the attack power of the two thousand main forces, you can open a bloody road and go straight to Shuibao Township.

And since there were so many small forces of the Eighth Route following behind the wing, Qing Shui judged that there must be a large army of the Eighth Route ambushed somewhere in front, and when his own troops encountered the resistance of the main force of the Eighth Road, these scattered small forces would suddenly surround the rear of his wing from all directions!

The Eighth Route is accustomed to fighting the weakest combat effectiveness of the baggage and other troops, these troops are still poor in mobility, firepower is not good, when the main force in front is blocked and beaten, there is no way to withdraw troops back to rescue the attacked baggage troops, the Eighth Road can often attack successfully, but also take advantage of the situation to divide their own wing!

Qing Shui thought of this, so he decided to use the baggage and engineer and other troops as light troops, so that they could attract the attention of the Eighth Route in the back, and when the main infantry brigade in front of them attacked the blocking of the Eighth Road, this rear guard force was like a piece of meat and bone thrown to the Eighth Road, so that the Eighth Route concentrated its forces to gnaw on this seemingly easy bone to gnaw, and he took the opportunity to take the main infantry brigade to break through the defense line of the Eighth Route and stand out! At that time, the Eighth Route was still entangled with its own rearguard troops, and there was no strength to besiege him again, so that Qing Shui could take most of the wing out of the encirclement of the Eighth Route.

The strategy of zhègè to lose the pawn and protect the commander is still very good, just like the wolf who was covered with claws, in order to save his life, he had to bite off his claws, Qing Shui firmly believed that the Eighth Route did not dare to use all his forces to fight a decisive battle with his main infantry brigade, they could fight to block the attack, but they would never attack head-on, the weapons and equipment of the Eighth Route were not good, and there were no planes and artillery, and they would not fight in a battle with a pile of people.

The adjutant understood the intention of Shimizu's arrangement, so Shimizu sent more than 200 people from the law enforcement team to him, in order to allow the adjutant to rush out and join him with this law enforcement team composed of the most effective veterans when the rearguard troops were besieged by the Eighth Road.

There is no need to say this explicitly, it is clear at all, the law enforcement team is inseparable from Shimizu Daisa, all of them are composed of veterans and officers above the sergeant level, they are all Shimizu Daisa's most loyal subordinates, it can be said that they are all a group of diehards of granite nǎodài, only the lord who died in battle, and there are no soldiers who survive!

Tieyingpan was beaten by the Eighth Road that night, and stopped jiǎobù, the plane that was originally scheduled to assist Shimizu Dazuo was temporarily sent to the northwest to help in the war, and Shimizu Dazuo, who got up at four o'clock in the morning, also laughed with the adjutant, saying that the gang of the 91st Wing was old, weak, sick and disabled, and Jiùshì sent ten more planes over, and it would not be able to pass Tieyingpan today!

Before dawn, the Qingshui Wing will have a full meal, and all departments will be opened! From Yaoyukou, where the night camp was held, three infantry battalions lined up, with the first brigade in the center, along the highway qiánjìn, and the other two brigades on the hills on both flanks of the zuǒyòu, keeping a distance of less than a kilometer from the road line.

After not going far, the three brigades opened up the distance, the first brigade began to break forward, and the whole formation became arrow-shaped from the air, and on the road line behind the infantry brigade, the baggage and other troops followed along the road like an arrow shaft after discarding and burning the materials they did not carry.

In three hours, it encountered two blockades from the Eighth Road, one was in Shaguoyuan, where the road made a few turns, and the Eighth Road blocked it on the mountain beam at the bend, and after the Japanese artillery bombardment and the two flanks of zuǒyòu were quickly outflanked, they retreated, and the whole blocking battle lasted less than half an hour.

After walking for more than ten miles, they encountered a relatively stubborn resistance at Dushan City, this time the number of people on the Eighth Road was larger than the last time in Shaguoyuan, probably two companies of troops, on the ridges and hills on both sides of the road, attacked the first brigade of the open road troops, and then blocked the second and third brigades that arrived on both sides for nearly forty minutes.

The battle lasted for nearly an hour, and the eight ways of the two companies fought very tenaciously, but it can also be seen that the three infantry brigades of Shimizu Dazuo acted at the same time, and the arrangement of the artillery assigned to the infantry brigade did work, otherwise it would take half a day just to wait for the artillery unit to come up, get the artillery to arrange the gun position and then fire the artillery support, and now the artillery is directly erected behind the infantry brigade, and the coordinated attack speed of the infantry artillery is very fast!

After repelling this eight-way blockade, at about nine o'clock in the morning, the Qingshui United had already advanced more than forty miles north! Nearly halfway through the scheduled journey, at this time in Tieyingpan, Kato had just finished his subordinates, and zhǔnbèi personally went into battle to attack the defense line of the Eighth Road.

After listening to Kato's briefing on the radio, Shimizu smiled contemptuously, pointed to the name of the place "Nandaozui" with his hand on the unfolded map, and told his subordinates to call here for lunch! To be continued ......)
