Wandi Town, Daimyo Prefecture, a country road outside its town.

At this moment, hundreds of soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were marching in a hurry, frantically advancing forward, and the speed of their march was really rare.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

Although the soldiers' running speed was already very fast, on both sides of the road, there was still a commander and fighter of the Eighth Route Army, constantly urging everyone to speed up their pace.

"Brethren, I know you're running fast, but I'm going to tell you that this isn't our limit."

"Big guy, don't forget the honor of our independent regiment, the famous iron foot of the 115th Division, it's not about others, it's about our independent regiment. Even if we run to death and die of exhaustion, we must intercept the little devil completely before it passes through Guantao County! ”

This contingent of hundreds of people of the Eighth Route Army is an independent regiment from the 115th Brigade of the 344th Division of the Eighth Route Army.

At this moment, the battle in the ten counties in the east of Handan has entered the final stage, and victory is in hand!

But now is also the most critical moment, a Japanese cavalry wing of more than 3,000 people actually rushed to the Handan battlefield, which was an unexpectedly unexpected result for everyone.

The cavalry contingent of several thousand people was really terrifying.

Although the Independent Regiment of the 115th Division sent two battalions of troops to ambush in the vicinity of Guanxian and Guantao counties in order to intercept the enemy who might arrive, they really did not expect that the reinforcements of the Japanese army turned out to be a whole cavalry wing.

Several ambushes set up by the 115th Division's Independent Regiment in order to intercept Japanese reinforcements could not cause a major obstacle to the Japanese cavalry wing at all.

The speed of the cavalry is simply too fast!

In the absence of tanks and armored vehicles, cavalry is invincible on the ground battlefield, and its terrifying mobility and extreme charging speed are like a nightmare in the eyes of everyone.

The regiment commander Liu Zhen said sharply: "If the interception task of the Japanese cavalry wing cannot be completed, then the victory results of the ten counties in the eastern part of Handan launched by the leading guerrillas this time will also be lost, and the most terrible thing is the impact of this battle, and the foundation laid by our Eighth Route Army in Handan will also be completely lost!" ”

The regiment commander Liu Zhen deeply understood the importance of intercepting the Japanese cavalry wing!

So he immediately made a decision and ordered the two battalions that had been sent before to immediately pursue the Japanese cavalry wing.

At the same time, the regiment commander Liu Zhen also ordered the rest of the remaining troops of the Independent Regiment to immediately set off to the north and pursue from Daimyo County to Guantao County.

In a word, it is important to completely intercept the Japanese cavalry in Guantao County before it rushes through Guantao County.

Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable.

At this moment, information from the front came.

"Report to the regiment commander, the broken rear team of the Japanese cavalry wing, about 500 people, is currently fighting with a battalion of our regiment in Donggu Town, and the battle situation is very stale!"

"Report to the regiment commander, the second battalion of our regiment is fighting fiercely with more than 400 Japanese troops in the area of Shaocun at the moment!"

After hearing these two news, the faces of the regiment commander Liu Zhen and the political commissar Gao Nongaxe changed greatly!

"Damn it!"

Political Commissar Gao Nongaxe said angrily: "Donggu Town and Shao Village are both in the border area of Guan County and Guantao County, according to this calculation, most of the main force of the Japanese cavalry wing has already entered the territory of Guantao County. ”

Regiment commander Liu Zhen gritted his teeth and said: "Originally, I was expecting the first and second battalions to slow down the march of the Japanese army, but now it seems that I can't count on it at all." The task of intercepting the Japanese cavalry wing can only be left on our own! ”

Between the words, the head of the regiment, Liu Zhen, was full of anger and unwillingness!

Although the Japanese cavalry wing left nearly 1,000 people behind to break the rear, the main force of the Japanese cavalry wing had obviously stepped into Guantao County.

All of a sudden, the situation became more and more serious.

"Pass my order, order all departments to speed up the march, and you must intercept the little devil in Guantao County for me!" The head of the regiment, Liu Zhen, shouted.

"Yes, Captain!" The guard shouted in response.

Gao Nongax, the political commissar on the side, shook his head with a wry smile, and sighed: "I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up!" ”

Judging from the distance, the speed of the independent regiment's march was far inferior to that of the Japanese army, and it was already like a fantasy to intercept the Japanese army in Guantao County this time.

I can't catch up!

Regiment commander Liu Zhen shouted: "If you can't catch up, you have to catch up, otherwise the 512 Brigade and the 887 Regiment will really be finished!" ”

Headquarters of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army.

"Division commander, the big thing is not good, the cavalry of the little devil has entered Guantao County, and Liu Zhen's independent regiment will definitely not be able to catch up!" A commander and fighter of the Eighth Route Army said eagerly.

When the words fell, the division commander Liu Bocheng and the others frowned.

"Hey~~~~!"

Chief of Staff Li Da sighed and said with a wry smile: "Now it depends on whether Brother Ouyang understands the trade-off."

If Li Yunlong's troops are ordered to evacuate now, then there is still hope for salvation.

Although all the fruits of victory in this battle will be lost, at least the vitality of Li Yunlong's department can be preserved to the greatest extent! ”

For a while, everyone in the entire division headquarters war room was extremely depressed.

The battle in the ten counties in the eastern part of Handan was a battle to seize the emptiness of the Japanese army's troops, and it was a large-scale battle.

If this battle can be successful, it will not only be able to kill a lot of Japanese puppet troops, but also capture a large number of weapons and equipment, which will play a huge role in the development of the Eighth Route Army in the entire Handan area.

The most important thing is the impact of the success of this war, which is bound to deal a heavy blow to the arrogance of the Japanese army in North China, greatly boost the anti-Japanese confidence of the people in North China, and completely break the illusions of some wavers, capitulators, and opportunists.

The commanders and fighters of the entire 129th Division gave a high degree of affirmation to Ouyang's operation, so that when Ouyang had no contact with them, they still brazenly sent two regiments of troops to intercept the Japanese troops on the Xingtai side and support Ouyang's action to the greatest extent.

The 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army also vigorously supported Ouyang's actions.

Although they did not directly participate in this operation, after all, they had to guard against the Japanese army in Henan, but in order to support Ouyang's actions, the entire 344th Brigade of the 115th Division also paid a great price, and Ouyang obtained no less than one regiment of weapons and equipment from them.

Giving a small guerrilla force and providing a regimental armament is already the limit of the limit for the not very wealthy 344 brigade.

It is no exaggeration to say that the operation launched by Ouyang in the ten counties in eastern Handan this time was with the help of the 334th Brigade of the 115th Division and the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army.

Everyone wants to be able to fight a good fight!

I have enough confidence in Ouyang!

But who would have thought that the Japanese army's reaction speed would be so fast!

In a word, Ouyang has done the best, but it is far less cunning than the Japanese army.

It is not unreasonable that the Japanese army was able to conquer most of China in a short period of more than a year.

Among the little devils, there is no shortage of excellent commanders!

Division Commander Liu Bocheng said in a deep voice: "Send a telegram to Ouyang immediately, let him stop his actions immediately, and focus on preserving his strength." ”

Hearing this, many people present were shocked!

An operational staff officer said eagerly: "Division commander, don't do it!" Ouyang doesn't belong to our battle sequence now, and if Ouyang stops attacking now, then all the fruits of victory that have been laid will be lost! ”

Immediately afterwards, many people present also exhorted.

Stopping the offensive now means a complete defeat in this battle!

Many of the people present were really unwilling.

Division Commander Liu Bocheng said in a deep voice: "Now it's not a matter of worrying about these fruits of victory, but a question of how to save the names of the soldiers, okay, you don't need to say it anymore, I believe Ouyang can make a correct judgment." ”

"Hey~~~~!"

For a while, many people shook their heads and smiled bitterly.

Leading guerrillas, where Ouyang is located.

"Captain, we have already arrived at the outskirts of Guantao County, and in less than 20 minutes, then we can intercept the Japanese army!" Ye Cunxin reported loudly.

Hearing this, Ouyang nodded expressionlessly.

Just then, news came.

The independent regiment of the 344th Brigade of the 115th Division sent a telegram: "It will take another hour for our unit to reach Guantao County. ”

The news of the telegram was immediately circulated by everyone.

Instructor Li Dakang shouted at Ouyang: "Captain, without the help of the independent regiment, we can't intercept the little devil at all!" ”

"If you can't stop it, you have to stop it!" Ouyang gritted his teeth and said.

The defeat of this battle is something that Ouyang will never allow!

Not only for the fruits of victory that had already been obtained, but most importantly, Ouyang did not want the blood of the warriors to be shed in vain!

Li Dakang said again: "Captain, calm down, we only need more than 100 people now, how can we stop the little devil cavalry of more than 2,000 people?" An hour, how can we withstand it? ”

More than 100 soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, to intercept more than 2,000 Japanese cavalry, it takes at least 1 hour to intercept!

This is simply an impossible task in the eyes of everyone!

"Don't say it's an hour, it's 5 minutes, we can't do it!" Li Dakang was heartbroken.

He tried hard to persuade Ouyang to give up the interception and stop all actions at the same time.

The fruits of victory are important, but where the lives of the warriors are important.

Ouyang grabbed Li Dakang's hand tightly, broke it open, and still said coldly: "I am the military commander, if anything goes wrong, I will take it with all my might, this time the little devil, we must intercept it!" ”

"Captain, don't do it!" Li Dakang was about to cry.

At this moment, Ye Cunxin ran over.

"Captain, the commander of the 129th Division, sent an urgent telegram in person."

At that moment, Ouyang glanced at the content.

The content of the message: Let Ouyang immediately stop any military action!

Li Dakang said eagerly: "Captain, you see that even Master Liu Bocheng came to persuade you to give up your actions, do you still have to be stubborn?" Captain, if you still insist, don't blame me for enforcing battlefield discipline! ”

Suddenly, Ouyang suddenly made a move, and a hand knife hit Li Dakang's neck alive, knocking him unconscious.

Ouyang's sudden move really made many people's faces change greatly.

Ouyang didn't pay any attention to everyone's expressions, and still said coldly: "Pass my order, order the team to continue to advance, you must intercept the enemy in Guantao County!" ”

Intercept?

More than 100 poorly equipped Eighth Route Army, intercepting more than 2,000 Japanese cavalry?

A battle with a huge disparity in strength is about to begin!
