Volume 1: Battle of Songhu Chapter 241

From three o'clock in the afternoon to half past five in the evening, the battle lasted for two and a half hours, after paying a heavy price, the anti-Japanese salvation army in southern Anhui finally made the first breakthrough on the right flank, and the remaining 50 Japanese soldiers of the 4th squadron of the 56th Independent Infantry Brigade were completely annihilated by Sun Laobao's company in a wave of white-knuckle battles in Zuihou, but Sun Laobao's company also fought to only six people.

When Sun Laobao picked a small Japanese officer to death on the spot, he couldn't even stand on his feet.

Sun Laobao was not injured, but his physical strength was seriously overdrawn, and fighting with a bayonet was too exhausting

After the 4th Infantry Squadron of the 56th Independent Infantry Brigade was completely annihilated, two squadrons of the Chizhou Japanese military police and a battalion of the puppet army finally shook the whole line, and the puppet army that was shrinking in the face of Zuihou collapsed first, and then the two squadrons of the gendarmerie also collapsed and began to retreat in the direction of Chizhou.

Peng Wu finally waited for the signal to attack.

Although there was only less than half an hour left before dark at this time, Peng Wu was still very excited, for the cavalry, almost an hour was enough, enough for them to kill the puppet army and the small Japanese military police who had lost their fighting spirit

Peng Wu immediately turned over on his horse, raised the Xuefeng knife in his hand, and shouted: "Cavalry battalion...... Rush with Lao Tzu

"Ahh

"Ahh

"Ahh

More than 200 cavalrymen showed the narrow blade, the blade of the snow maple knife shining, and then howled like a beast, one by one howling red face and thick neck, for the army, howling is a channel for emotional relief, but also an effective means to unite the army, enhance confidence and at the same time can deter the enemy An army, the stronger the combat effectiveness, the louder the howl

The next moment, Peng Wu pressed the Xuefeng knife forward, and more than two hundred cavalry behind him came out of the woods one after another, first opened a slightly messy front on the wilderness, and then gradually began to accelerate, first trotting, then running, to Zuihou began to sprint at a high speed, more than 900 iron hooves slammed heavily on the ground and made a dull sound, as if the sky was thundering, which could shatter everyone's eardrums, and that kind of power was no less than thousands of troops and horses charging in clusters.

Cavalry, compared to the real lethality, visually gives the enemy a more terrifying deterrent

Soon, the cavalry overtook the pursuing infantry and caught up with the Japanese puppet army, which was fleeing in a hurry.

In the pursuit, the cavalry on horseback can easily distinguish the Japanese puppet army, although they are wearing the same khaki military uniform as the anti-Japanese salvation army in southern Anhui, but the Japanese soldiers are wearing steel helmets, neither wearing steel gray or steel helmets and running away, their military caps also have eye-catching strips of cloth behind them, which can be distinguished at a glance.

In an instant, Peng Wu had already caught up with a Japanese soldier, and the Xue Feng knife held high fell down.

With the strong inertia of the war horse's sprint, Peng Wu didn't even exert much force, just slashed down slightly, and cut off the entire head of the Japanese soldier, and the hideous head fell to the ground, but the body that lost his head still ran forward several steps under the action of inertia before finally falling to the battlefield.

A ray of slanting sun shone down through the clouds, shining on the headless corpse that had lost its head, and the blood gushing out from the broken neck instantly stained the gravel ground beneath it, and the head that had lost its body fell not far away, erect, looking at its body with empty eyes, showing the cruelty of the battlefield.

(Dividing Line)

When Xu 19 and Huang Baitao appeared on the battlefield under the escort of the guards of both sides, the battle had already ended, and the various units involved in the battle were already cleaning up the battlefield.

Along the way, from time to time there are cavalry battalions directly under the anti-Japanese salvation army in southern Anhui riding over majestically on high-headed horses, from the bodies of these cavalry, you can easily feel the sharpness, just like a sword has just been sharpened from the whetstone, but it is the whetstone that sharpens the sword, and it is the blood of small Japan that sharpens these cavalry

Huang Baitao turned his head and glanced at Chen Shizhang, and both of them saw a trace of helplessness in each other's eyes.

Although there was only one infantry squadron of the Japanese army opposite the L18th Regiment, because this Japanese army occupied a small piece of high ground, and with this high ground, a tight crossfire network was built, so until the L18th Regiment of Zuihou was unable to completely annihilate this Japanese army.

Zuihou was still the 1st Regiment of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in Southern Anhui After completely annihilating the Japanese troops on the middle road and the right flank, it divided a battalion to cooperate with the L18th Regiment to launch a strong attack, and finally took the high ground and completely annihilated this stubborn Japanese army

Therefore, seeing the corpses of the Japanese puppet army lying all over the battlefield on the battlefield, Huang Baitao didn't even bother to count the number of enemies killed on both sides, and said to Xu 19 at the moment: "Commander Xu, I am willing to gamble and lose, we lost this contest, we will hand over this batch of military supplies to you, you will send someone to receive it." ”

After speaking, Huang Baitao turned around and left, he felt that he didn't have the face to stay here anymore.

However, after walking a few steps, Huang Baitao still turned around and said: "As for the distribution of materials, you can just look at it, and then I will send someone to Longkou County to pick it up." ”

Seeing the figures of Huang Baitao and Chen Shizhang go away, Xu Shijiu smiled slightly.

Gao Shen walked over and sneered: "Huang Baitao is still an acquaintance, I thought he should deny it, but I didn't expect to admit defeat so quickly, and hand over the military supplies so quickly, but speaking of which, this is not quite like Gu someone's usual style, which is too surprising." ”

As soon as Li Zihan came over, he took off his steel helmet from his head and said, "Old Gao, don't think of Huang Junzuo as inferior, in fact, Chief Gu is not as unbearable as you imagined, he ......"

"Gu Zhutong?" Gao Shen said, "Don't put gold on his face." ”

"Lao Gao, you are prejudiced." Li Zihan said, "Yes, from the perspective of our anti-Japanese salvation army in southern Anhui, some of his practices are indeed not very kind, but if you change the angle and consider it from his position, the conclusion will be completely different, no matter what, he is the commander-in-chief of the third theater after all." ”

"It is precisely because he is the commander-in-chief of the Third Theater of Operations that some of his practices are cold."

"Okay, you two are arguing and arguing, are you tired?" Xu Shijiu saw that the two were about to quarrel again, so he quickly interjected and forcibly interrupted, and then instructed Shu Tongwen, "Ah Wen, I can only ask you for the matter of transporting materials, and when the materials are transported back to Longkou, I will invite you to Zuixian Building to rub them again."

"Captain, don't worry." Shu Tongwen said, "I have already contacted the South Anhui Provincial Party Committee, and the South Anhui County Party Committee has also instructed the Qingyang County Party Committee and the Longkou County Party Committee to set up a transport team. ”

Xu 19 calculated the time, the 13th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade reinforced from Hefei will not be able to cross the Yangtze River until dawn tomorrow, and as for the 57th Independent Infantry Brigade reinforced from Jiujiang, it is basically impossible to attack again under the premise that the main force of the Japanese army in Chizhou is basically annihilated.

Therefore, the time for the transfer of supplies is completely sufficient.

It was also at this time that Xu Shijiu was in the mood to care about things outside the battlefield.

Xu Shijiu called Ye Ruxue to him and asked, "Director Ye, have you made a breakthrough in the investigation of the few people in the Longkou Democratic Government who are very close to Liu Chang?" ”

Ye Ruxue spread her hands and said with a wry smile: "Commander, I've been here all the time, where can I take care of that side?" ”

"You see, as soon as this battle starts, I'm confused." Xu Jiujiu patted his forehead and said with a smile, "However, I still have to bother Director Ye to rush back to Longkou as soon as possible to find out about this matter." ”

Liu Chang is like a time bomb, if he doesn't dismantle it for a day, Xu Shijiu's heart will be unhappy for a day.

What is particularly irritating is that you can't force this bomb to defuse it, otherwise it could easily lead to political disputes.

Ye Ruxue was also angry when she heard this, and looked at Xu Shijiu with resentment and said, "Commander, you really don't feel sorry for me." ”

Xu Shijiu hurriedly remedied: "When this case is investigated, I will definitely give you a vacation and let you rest for a few days." ”

"And that basketball staff officer." Gao Shen walked over and said, "This guy is obviously not a good person, the last time he missed, it doesn't mean that he will give up, I'm sure he will definitely sneak into the dragon's mouth and wait for the opportunity to assassinate Lao Xu, Director Ye, this time you can't let this guy go like last time." ”

The smile on Ye Ruxueqiao's face disappeared in an instant, she completely agreed with Gao Shenxing's judgment, that Lan Staff Officer must have come with the mission of assassinating Xu Shijiu, and it was absolutely impossible for him to stop before he achieved his goal, because the military commander had strict and almost cruel discipline, and if he failed to complete the task, he would be brutally punished.
