Chapter 562: Snow Battle

In the snowstorm flying in the sky, the encounter with the Japanese army of the brigade made this team of only more than 1,000 people fall into an extremely dangerous situation, and what is even worse is that Tang Qiuli, the number one person in the independent division, is also here.

Looking at Tang Qiuli, who was silent, where was he looking ahead, Shanhu was so anxious that he almost jumped up, his first thought was to let the soldiers of a detachment, protect the division commander and Mei Ting, and the personnel of the division headquarters, immediately retreat, and reach a safe place first, and then he led all the soldiers of the guard brigade to cover.

However, the way was said, but Tang Qiuli didn't make any answer, and the mountain tiger was sweating on his head, according to the situation reported by the soldiers, the Japanese army encountered this time was at least more than 10,000 people, God, even if he stepped on people, he could trample more than 1,000 people into meatloaf.

The number one person in the independent division is here, and he bears a great responsibility, but Xiaoqiu still doesn't look in a hurry, he is really anxious, he was about to order a few soldiers to forcibly lead the division commander to evacuate, and a soldier rushed over covered in blood, and the horse's hooves splashed with snow, like a cloud driving fog.

When he got closer, he dismounted and reported: "Division commander, captain, the Japanese army is constantly driving along the road, estimated to be tens of thousands of people, the strange thing is that the Japanese brigade does not seem to want to entangle with us, only sent cavalry troops to engage us, the brigade continues to drive along the road in the direction of Xiangyuan, the troops ask for instructions?" ”

There is no need to ask, looking at the blood on this soldier's body, you can imagine the fierceness of the battle, after listening to the soldier, Tang Qiuli's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Is the judgment of the strength of the Japanese army accurate?" The warrior nodded affirmatively.

Tang Qiuli understood, Shankou did not use the route from Wuxiang to Yushe, but took through Licheng, such a cunning guy, give me a "Ming Xiu plank road to secretly cross Chencang", he put the three wings between Wuxiang and Yushe, it was completely a bait, thanks to this heavy snow, providence, let his troops still stay in the area around Lucheng to Licheng.

He said to Shanhu: "Huzi, order the troops to withdraw, get rid of the threat of the Japanese brigade, and set up a headquarters nearby" The order was conveyed, but the troops could not retreat, and the Japanese cavalry of about two brigades tightly entangled the soldiers of more than 600 guard brigades, and the battlefield was full of killings.

So, a strange phenomenon happened, on the road to Xiangyuan, the Japanese army of the brigade, like a rolling tide to the south, only three or four thousand meters away from them, a large group of cavalry, catch and fight, sabers collided, clangling, horses' hooves splashed thick snow, and were blown away by the strong wind, from time to time there were cavalry screaming and falling under the horses, the Japanese infantry seemed to turn a blind eye, listen and do not hear, just care about the head of the road.

More than 600 soldiers of the guard brigade are the elite of the elite of the independent division troops, in the face of more than 2,000 Japanese cavalry, the slightest advantage is not lost, the soldiers in groups of three, cover each other, form an attack arrow, although many soldiers are covered with blood, wounded a lot, the military uniforms on their bodies, cut by sharp sabers, but not cut under the horse, the fall, are the Japanese cavalry.

However, it is not easy for them to highlight the encirclement of the Japanese cavalry, Tang Qiuli frowned, if he retreats at this time, it is not dangerous and easy, but how many of the more than 600 soldiers who get along with him day and night can come back?

He said to Shanhu: "Huzi, let the soldiers of a detachment, the commander of the protection division evacuate, and the rest of the troops, immediately attack the Japanese cavalry, and rescue the surrounded soldiers," Shanhu took the order, and he called Chen Feng, the director of the communications department, and dictated a few orders, 1. Tang Qiusheng's troops stranded in Lucheng immediately went forward to the line of Wuyang and Changlong, established a blocking position, and must block the Japanese troops under the mountain pass for eight hours.

Second, the troops of the three brigades of the Niangziguan Garrison Corps, which had already arrived at Zuohui, arrived in the Xindian area via Wangjiayu and Xiying, blocking the retreat of the Japanese troops under the Yamaguchi Headquarters; third, the troops of the four brigades of the Yellow River Garrison Corps under Sun Zhenbang of the Yellow River Garrison Corps in Licheng, and the troops of the four brigades under the command of Wang Dongshan, chief of staff of the Yellow River Henan Defense Line Garrison Corps (acting commander), immediately assembled from Licheng in the direction of Wuyang and were responsible for attacking the right flank of the Japanese troops under the Yamaguchi Headquarters.

Fourth, in the Qinyuan area, the Ma Chaoyang Department of the Independent Second Brigade and the Jiang Yanming Department of the Huangyadong Garrison Brigade assembled in the direction of Xiadian via Zhangdian and Yuwu, and were responsible for attacking the left flank of the Japanese army under the mountain pass, and Liu Chun's 1st Cavalry Brigade made strategic maneuvers on the front line of Xiangyuan, ready to pursue and annihilate the fleeing Japanese troops at any time.

Fifth, the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of Tong Batu continued to carry out the original plan, and it was imperative to completely annihilate all the Japanese troops on the line from Wuxiang to Yushe, and all units participating in the battle must arrive at their designated positions within six hours, and the time for the general attack was set at 5 o'clock in the morning on 4 January.

After recording the message, Chen Feng was about to order the radio station to send a report, but Tang Qiuli grabbed him, he was not in a hurry for a while, and then sent the report after waiting for a safe place, Chen Feng smiled embarrassedly, too, the bullets were flying around him, if the radio station was broken, it would be terrible.

Seeing a team of soldiers protecting the division commander and leaving quickly, Tang Qiuli breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and stomped his feet angrily, Mei Ting did not evacuate with the division commander, I don't know where to get a submachine gun, and was sitting on the snow and pressing the bullet into the magazine.

Tang Qiuli ordered the soldiers around him to protect him, and sent ten people to immediately protect Director Mei to catch up with the evacuees, he ignored Mei Ting's repeated protests, and suddenly picked her up and put her on horseback, Mei Ting didn't want to go at all, but seeing her husband blowing his beard and glaring, with a fierce and vicious look, he knew that there was no play, pouted, and reluctantly left, and kept turning back frequently, sending Mei Ting away, Tang Qiuli was relaxed, took off Tang Long's gun, pushed the bullet on the horse, flew on the horse, and was about to rush forward with the guards around him.

The guards had long been strictly ordered by the captain Shan Hu, and never allowed the division commander to make any more risky moves, especially on the front line, several soldiers of the special guards, tightly holding the reins of his horse, and threatening Tang Qiu angrily: "This is the order of the division commander, be careful to close your confinement" It is useless, let alone confinement, even if you shoot them, you will not let go.

was in a stalemate, the mountain tiger Pegasus came over, a lot of blood was splashed on his body, and he was holding a big knife in his left hand, which was the treasure knife used by Battle, and the heavy machine gun in his right hand, the snowflakes melted when they fell, obviously he had just participated in the fierce battle, this appearance made Tang Qiuli envious.

When Shanhu saw Tang Qiuli, he was stunned, and then roared loudly in anger: "The special guards eat dry food? Why hasn't the division commander left yet? "A few soldiers looked at each other, God, and withdrew? If we hadn't tried our best to stop us, we would have fought a long time ago

Just now, the mountain tiger led the rest of the soldiers, like a gust of wind into the encirclement of the Japanese army, the mountain tiger took the lead, slashing and shooting, and opened a gap in the encirclement of the Japanese cavalry, and received more than 600 surrounded soldiers, so that he was quite pleased that although almost all the soldiers were wounded, more than a dozen people were still seriously injured, but no one was left in the encirclement, the elite and good fighting of the soldiers of the guard brigade can be seen, and it was not in vain that the strict training of the mountain tiger was not wasted.

Although the soldiers rushed out, the Japanese cavalry still held on, seeing that there was a large group of Japanese cavalry, the mountain tiger ordered the troops, alternate cover, and retreated one by one, he did not worry too much, with more than 1,500 soldiers trained by himself, the cavalry of a wing of the Japanese army wanted to eat himself, and the little devil did not have such a good mouth.

It's a big deal to take them around the Taihang Mountains in circles, and it is not certain who will eat whom in the end? Of course, these thoughts of his are all on the premise of the safe evacuation of the division commanders, but the one who should be evacuated the most, not only did not leave, but also went into battle to fight, isn't this in a hurry to die?

Shanhu was so angry that he couldn't speak, looking at him shaking his head again and again, Tang Qiuli looked innocent, as a warrior, is it a mistake to go into battle to kill the enemy? When the mountain tiger heard this, he almost turned his back on it, boss, it is true that you are a warrior, but your value is different, a little bit worse, the big guy has to eat me, if the little devil knows that Tang Qiu is here, tens of thousands of devils promise not to go, and they are surrounded by swarms, we can't leave if we want to, see, a wing of devil cavalry, still bite tightly.

The troops could only fight and retreat, and gradually moved away from the devil's army, fighting for a whole afternoon, along the way, although they killed a lot of devil cavalry, Tang Qiuli also designed several small-scale counterattacks, still did not get rid of the pursuit of the Japanese cavalry, and in the evening, they arrived at an ancient village that was deserted for unknown years, after the troops entered, they immediately blocked the gate of the village, seized the commanding heights, and used fierce firepower to block the Japanese pursuers outside the village.

In order to prevent the surrounded Chinese army from breaking through and escaping at night, the Japanese army gathered piles of bonfires around the stockade, and pointed the muzzle of the gun in the black hole, pointing at the stockade.

In a half-collapsed room, Tang Qiuli opened the map by the light of the fire, and found the position he was in now, this is a place called White Fox Kiln, about dozens of kilometers away from the preset battlefield Xiadian, I don't know where the name White Fox Kiln comes from, look at this scale, it is a large-scale cottage, and the time of abandonment should be seven or eight years.

The reason why Tang Qiuli chose this place, as a stronghold to hold on, was really a last resort, all the way to the firefight, the troops were wounded a lot, if not rescued in time, I am afraid that there will be life danger, moreover, the war horses of the Japanese cavalry, whether it is foot strength or endurance, must exceed the war horses of their own troops, and they can't run.

can only use the terrain to deal with the little devils, fortunately, the supplies, ammunition and medicine carried by the troops are enough to support a few days, he doesn't understand, why is this Japanese cavalry in hot pursuit? Is there a particular reason?
