After the Battle of Handan, the 512th Brigade, under the leadership of Liu Tongluo, evacuated Handan City and returned to Taihang Mountain; The Chu Yunfei Division of the National Army also went south to Henan; And Ouyang led his troops to the east and returned to Guantao County, the base camp of the leading detachment.

Although the battle of Handan was won by our Chinese army, the leaders of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army were not carried away by the victory and decisively ordered to abandon the city of Handan.

Handan City is an important city in Hebei, a prefecture-level city, and a strategic location.

Although the Japanese army temporarily retreated northward, their attempt to recapture Handan City would not be reduced. However, the anti-Japanese war policy implemented by our party was mainly based on guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines, and if we forcibly occupied such an important city as Handan City, we would undoubtedly become a living target for the Japanese army, and the harm would outweigh the benefits.

This is the decision of Ouyang and others to evacuate Handan City.

Ouyang strongly agrees with this decision.

"The chiefs are still shrewd, if we really let us stay in Handan City, it is estimated that it will not be long before we will all finish!"

Ouyang sighed afterwards.

On the evening of the 22nd, Ouyang led his troops to evacuate Handan City, and after returning to Guantao County, the Japanese army occupied Handan City again in the evening of the next day.

The garrison of the Japanese army in Handan City is the 5th garrison brigade directly under the North China Front of the Japanese army.

As for the original 110th Division of the Japanese Army, because it was almost crippled and annihilated by Ouyang and others, and lost more than 10,000 troops, it was unable to fight again, so all of them were transferred back to the north for rest and recuperation.

Major General Hiromoto Toyoda, the acting commander of the division, was hit by a stray bullet fired by Ouyang and others during the battle to defend Handan City, causing serious injuries.

Ouyang and the others, who got the news, were so angry that they were itching their teeth.

Jiang Dengxuan said: "It's cheap this Guangben Toyota, kill so many of our soldiers!" ”

Xiao Zhuang said: "My dragon head detachment and this person are not in the same sky, but if there is a chance, they will definitely kill this fang." ”

Yang Liqing said: "Don't worry, sooner or later I will find him to settle the account!" ”

When Ouyang heard the name of Hiromoto Toyota, his heart was also furious, and his countless comrades-in-arms died at the hands of Hiromoto Toyota.

"Hiromoto Toyota, as long as you step into China again, I will kill it!" Ouyang said coldly.

~~~~~~

On the morning of May 23, 1939, after Ouyang led his troops back to Handan City, he immediately issued an order.

"It was sent to all the ministries that all the county towns in Handan that had been captured by our leading detachment, except for Guantao County, and all the rest were abandoned. Troops were withdrawn from the county towns and dispersed in the towns and villages. ”

Although the Japanese army suffered a devastating blow in the Battle of Handan, the military strength of the Japanese army in Hebei is still quite strong, far from being matched by our leading detachment.

Even if the entire Eighth Route Army is tied together, it won't work!

Guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines will be the mainstream for the next period of time.

In fact, there is another reason, it is not that Ouyang does not want to occupy the rest of the counties in Handan, but that the strength is not enough, after this battle, the strength of the leading detachment has been greatly damaged, and it is no longer able to have another big battle.

Faced with the decision to voluntarily abandon the county towns that have been occupied in various places, the vast majority of the people in the team agree and understand, but there are still a small number of fighters who do not understand this, and even show resistance.

"We have few troops, but the strength of the little devil in Handan is not good!"

"That's right, those county towns are all our Chinese land, why should they be thrown directly to the little devils?"

"And these county towns are all bought by our brothers with blood!"

"Commander, we can't withdraw!"

"It's a big deal to fight with the little devils!"

"We are not afraid of death!"

Ouyang also understands the resistance of a small number of soldiers, after all, in order to capture these counties, the soldiers paid too much, and witnessed their comrades-in-arms fall one after another before they won the victory.

Now let them not fire a single shot, and give these cities that they have exchanged for blood to the Japanese again, how can they feel comfortable?

They are not comfortable!

How could Ouyang have been happy!

It's a last resort!

"Brothers, what we lost today, let the little devil return it tenfold in the future!"

Ouyang shouted loudly.

Jiang Dengxuan, Li Dakang, Yang Liqing, Xiaozhuang, Ruinian and others fully supported Ouyang's decision, which was also an order from the superiors!

For the days ahead, Ouyang has clearly specified the plan.

The first task is to restore strength.

Secondly, taking advantage of the fact that the new defeat of the Japanese army was not long in coming, and the control of Handan City and the surrounding counties was insufficient, our army should quickly expand the occupied area, mainly in the rural areas.

"In the next one month, our leading detachment will station our soldiers in every township in Handan City, and continue to encroach on the strength of the Japanese army in Handan, so as to eliminate the enemy to the greatest extent."

At this moment, Ouyang's heart was very gratified.

After the battle of Handan City, although the strength of the leading detachment has dropped greatly, in the Handan area, at the junction of Hebei, Shandong, and Henan provinces, it can be regarded as occupying a foothold in a real sense and being invincible!

The insufficient strength of the Japanese army in the Handan area also provided the best take-off fighter for the development of the Longtou detachment in the next period of time.

"Commander, I have a hunch that in the next 1 to 2 months, the strength of our leading detachment will not only be able to recover to its original strength, but will also be bound to rise to a higher level!"

Li Dakang laughed.

~~~~~~~~

In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed.

Ouyang was in the house, writing a letter with great effort.

To be exact, it is an application, an application for marriage submitted to the superiors!

"Ouyang, don't be in a hurry, right?"

Ye Cunxin said shyly: "How busy are you with your work now, every day you are either busy liquidating the rent, verifying the land, or recruiting and building the team, where do you have time to deal with our private affairs, do you want to wait no longer?" ”

Ouyang saw Ye Cunxin's red cheeks, and immediately laughed.

"What's not in a hurry? You're not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry. ”

"Don't say it's me, just the little cubs of our team, which one is not nagging in my ears these days, chattering about drinking happy wine, just yesterday Lao Liu, the head of the independent regiment, also commanded me, saying that I am not active in marriage, and I am not active in anything, can I bear it?"

"Huh!"

Ouyang got up suddenly, hugged Ye Cunxin, and smiled: "Daughter-in-law, according to the time, in February or March next year, our son will have to come out, we can't let the child know that we are not married, so we must hurry up to do this!" ”

At this moment, Ouyang's heart, not to mention how beautiful it is!

Wait a few more months, and you'll have a son!

"Who said it had to be a son?"

Suddenly, Ye Cunxin was unhappy, and his face drooped.

"If it's a daughter, what if you don't marry me?"

"Hahaha!" Ouyang stared at him and said with a smile: "How can it, it doesn't matter if he is a kid or a daughter, anyway, we will get married soon, and besides, your ass is so big, it must be a son, it's not to say!" ”

"You're like a child!"

For a while, Ye Cunxin's beauty was light, his smile was like a flower, Ouyang was stunned, and he was ready to follow this "good" atmosphere and do something he loved to do.

"Bang!"

But at this moment, Ouyang's side was suddenly pushed away by a huge force.

It was not someone else who came to do the bad thing, it was the deputy political commissar of the detachment, the county secretary of Guantao County, Comrade Li Dakang.

Li Dakang, who broke through Ouyang's good deeds, was also embarrassed at the moment, and repeatedly said sorry.

"Are you embarrassed to apologize?"

In Ouyang's heart, it's called a big fire!

Whoever is replaced, it is impossible to have a good face.

After a "friendly" conversation, Secretary Dakang deeply realized his mistake, and then explained his intentions.

"Commander, what a happy event!"

"What's the happy event?"

"The superiors have sent more than 200 veterans to us, and there are dozens of backbone elements to help our leading detachment recover its strength!"

Li Dakang said excitedly: "And after the war, the establishment of our leading detachment has been adjusted again, from the 115th Division to the 129th Division, to be precise, it is divided into the Southern Hebei Military Region, isn't this equivalent to going back to your mother's home?" ”

"At the same time, Commander, you have also been appointed as the commander of the Sixth Division of the Southern Hebei Military Region, is this a great joy for the future development of our detachment?"

After a pause, he said: "Well, by the way, the order of the division has been officially issued, and it has been transmitted to the war room, and you will be asked to rush to the military region to attend the meeting on the 29th of this month." ”

The first update of "" was sent.
