The attack was too smooth, and when Zeng Quan finally arrived at the battlefield with the follow-up troops, there was no longer a living devil in the Japanese puppet army garrison next to the Xiaguan stronghold.

Dozens of puppet soldiers squatted together, guarded by a dozen fighters. Then there were a dozen more fighters cleaning up the battlefield, gathering together the various weapons and ammunition scattered around the station.

As soon as Zeng Quan rushed into the battlefield, a wounded platoon commander rushed over with excitement on his face.

"What about the battalion commander? Why didn't you see the battalion commander? Without waiting for the other party to call out the report, Zeng Quan asked anxiously.

"The battalion commander took our company commander to chase the devils, and dozens of devils escaped, and the radio station was also taken away, and the battalion commander said that they must be eliminated and the radio station captured!" The platoon commander hastened to answer.

"He is the battalion commander, and he is the backbone of the entire independent battalion, how can he chase and kill devils. What is your company commander Zhang Qing doing to eat, why don't you stop the battalion commander. If anything happens to the battalion commander, I'll kill him! Zeng Quan scolded both worried and dissatisfied.

Then he ordered the troops behind him: "The second company will follow me to reinforce the battalion commander, and the third company and one platoon will stay behind to clean up the battlefield!" ”

Zeng Quan led his troops along the official road for an hour and a half, but still did not see Wang Ping's shadow.

At this moment, an exclamation suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Deputy battalion commander, there's a fire ahead!"

"It's so late to go in the direction of Xiaguan Village, it's either the devil or the battalion commander!" Zeng Quan frowned, and analyzed with a worried face.

Then he ordered Zhang Yunshan, the commander of the second company: "Take the troops and hide immediately, and the guard squad will go to the front to reconnoiter and confirm whether they are devils or battalion commanders!" ”

Soon, the guard squad that was scouting in front rushed over, and then reported with an excited face: "Deputy battalion commander, it's the battalion commander, they won the battle again, and they brought back a lot of prisoners!" ”

"Let's go, go meet the battalion commander!" Zeng Quan didn't say a word, and rushed forward with the troops.

I finally returned to Xiaguan Village, and the battlefield had been almost cleaned. The weapons and ammunition scattered in the garrison of the Japanese puppet army were piled up like a hill and concentrated in the middle of the garrison. In particular, the two intact mortars, Wang Ping watched around them for a full minute before stopping.

At this time, Zeng Quan had already summarized all the seized data, and rushed to Wang Ping's side with an excited face.

"Battalion commander, we are rich, we are rich. With the Japanese equipment we captured, we can form an infantry company at will. ”

"After statistics, we captured a total of two infantry guns and 104 unopened shells. By collecting parts that were blown up on the battlefield, he successfully armed two mortars, 258 shells, one heavy machine gun, four crooked handles, three grenadiers, and 128 large covers. There are a lot of bullets for heavy machine guns, and the devils are configured according to three heavy machine guns, and there are eleven thousand rounds. Rifle ammunition was configured according to a reinforced squadron, with a total of more than 40,000 rounds and nearly 50,000 rounds. ”

"In addition, we also captured 243 puppet soldiers and captured 218 domestic rifles made by the puppet army, three of which were made by the Czech Republic and had 30,000 rounds of bullets."

"As for the rest of the equipment and ammunition, they were all blown up during the battle and can only be used for parts!"

"It's already possible!" Wang Ping replied with great satisfaction.

After looking at the watch on his wrist, he said: "There are less than two hours until dawn, and we must withdraw to the station before dawn to prevent the little devil from retaliating." Lao Zeng, you go and arrange it! ”

As a veritable No. 3 person in the independent battalion, Zeng Quan still knows a lot about the situation of the Japanese army in Laiyuan City.

As soon as he heard Wang Ping's order, he couldn't help but ask: "Battalion commander, the devils in Laiyuan City still dare to come out." Originally, there were not many troops, but now that we have eaten a reinforced squadron, there must be even less, and now that he comes out to retaliate against us, he is not afraid that we are eating one of his squadrons! ”

"Our separate battalion is not what it used to be, not only with crooked handles, heavy machine guns, but also grenadiers and mortars, and even two infantry guns. As long as the devils dare to come, they will definitely be able to kill them! ”

Seeing the confident smile on Zeng Quan's face, Wang Ping immediately thought of a sentence, the arrogant soldiers will be defeated!

Of course, this is not to blame Zeng Quan, the independent battalion has not lost a battle since it entered Laiyuan. Now with the strength of a battalion, he has eaten the devil in one bite plus the squadron, and the puppet army has a battalion, which can be described as a brilliant result, and everyone will be full of confidence.

Wang Ping was very worried, because of the upcoming changes in Laiyuan, he had not announced them. In the face of the garrison brigade that the Japanese army has begun to form, the independent battalion has no arrogant capital at all in front of them.

If this arrogance is allowed to spread among the troops, perhaps the next battle independent battalion will hit a wall, and it will be directly destroyed by the Japanese army.

"It seems that it is time to announce the upcoming changes in Laiyuan. Otherwise, these arrogant soldiers will definitely suffer a big loss on the battlefield! Wang Ping thought secretly in his heart.

Then he frowned, and ordered with a serious face at Zeng Quan: "Execute the order, the whole battalion must evacuate here in an hour!" ”

"Don't forget, the little devils still have air support that we don't have. Even if their infantry does not dare to come out, they can send planes over. When the time comes, just drop two bombs casually and you can reimburse us for the strength of one company! ”

Zeng Quan had dealt with devil planes, and when he first hit the flat pass ambush, he had seen the power of Japanese planes.

A bomb coming down, whether hiding in a trench or lying on the ground, is useless. Just as Wang Ping just said, when an aerial bomb comes down, it will casually reimburse a platoon of the Eighth Route Army, and even more than half of the company.

Thinking of this, Zeng Quan's face became heavy. Then he replied with a hint of fear: "Battalion commander, I will immediately arrange, an hour, to withdraw from the Japanese puppet army station!" ”

The headquarters of the Japanese army in Laiyuan City, Major General Ono has been guarding the headquarters for almost five hours. Seeing that it was about to dawn outside, the communications office had not yet contacted Hamasaki Shaosa.

Judging from the time, Hamasaki Shaosa should have already arrived at the nearest stronghold to Shimonoseki Village under the receiving of troops.

So far, however, no news has returned, and even radio contact has been cut off. Ono, who had suffered a lot at the hands of the Eighth Route Army, had already faintly felt a trace of uneasiness at this time, and had a very bad premonition.

"Jingle Bell ......" At this moment, the shrill ringing of the telephone suddenly interrupted the silent and oppressive atmosphere of the headquarters.

A staff officer next to him hurriedly picked up the telephone and began to answer, and soon, Ono saw beads of sweat the size of beans coming out of the staff officer's forehead.

Xiao Ye's uneasiness became more and more intense, and before he could put down the phone, he asked, "Is there any news from Hamasaki?" ”

"Hey!" The staff officer bowed his head in reply, and then whispered, "Distance." The nearest Longyan stronghold in Xiaguan Village reported that the receiving force they sent was completely wiped out. Not far away, Hamasaki Shaosa's body was found, and Hamasaki Shaosa and more than 300 warriors under his command were all shattered! ”

"Baga, how can this be, a reinforced squadron, a battalion of the Imperial Allied Army, more than 600 people, can't even withstand it for one night, what are they doing to eat......" The uneasiness became a fact, and Ono was angry all of a sudden, like an angry lion, scolding at the headquarters!
