Eventually, Lieutenant Admiral Ito had to come to terms with this reality.

After a moment's hesitation, he ordered: "The troops are camped on the spot, stay here and rest tonight!" ”

"The cavalry has strengthened its vigilance, the Eighth Route Army has prepared such a large mine array for us here, it must still be hidden around, it cannot be ruled out that they will take advantage of the fire to loot and continue to sneak attack us!"

"Also, take two infantry brigades out and go to the nearby villages to catch some of the common people. Now that there is no Engineer Federation, we must have a large number of people to build roads for us, and the common people of China are the best labor! ”

"Hey!"

Lieutenant General Ito's tent was the first to be erected by his subordinates.

Entering the warm tent, I was just about to close my eyes and recuperate, and take a good look at my various encounters since I sent out the troops, from which I judged the combat effectiveness and combat style of my opponent, and I could defend myself in the next march.

"Bang bang bang...... Da Da Da ...... Bang bang ......"

Suddenly, a burst of gunfire reached his ears.

It was very short, lasting less than half a minute. However, the various gunshots came together and sounded so dense that it felt like at least three machine guns were firing!

Lieutenant General Ito opened his eyes suddenly, and then a pair of sharp eyes shot out two sharp rays, like a falcon's glasses.

shouted at the door of the tent: "Combat staff officer...... Order the cavalry troops to counterattack immediately and kill the Eighth Route Army that had just attacked us! ”

As soon as the order was given, the chief of staff rushed in.

"Division commander, your judgment just now is completely correct, there are still troops of the Eighth Route Army in the artillery around us. Just now, more than a dozen Eighth Route Army attacked one of our cavalry squadrons, and this cavalry squadron had already organized a counterattack on the spot and killed them, and two nearby cavalry squadrons also rushed over, intending to make a detour left and right and kill them! ”

"Yo Xi, the Eighth Route Army has killed so many of our warriors, and we must pay for our actions!"

"Also, contact the aviation forces above our heads, closely monitor the area of engagement, report the situation immediately, and be ready to provide air support to the ground forces at any time!"

"Division commander, you are worried that the Eighth Route Army has other conspiracies!" The chief of staff reacted immediately.

"It's not worrying, it's definitely there!" Lieutenant General Ito affirmed.

"The Eighth Route Army is too cunning, although it only takes two or three days to fight them. However, I am sure that their commander is a thoughtful and strategic operational command genius! ”

"Do you think such a man will let a dozen of his subordinates rush to us for no reason?"

The chief of staff's face gradually became solemn, and he replied with a frown: "Definitely not, if the Eighth Route Army only has these dozen people to sneak attack one of our cavalry squadrons." If they can't hold out for even five minutes, they will be wiped out by the cavalry squadron! ”

"Humble duty, go and give orders immediately!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of more intensive gunshots came.

"Sure enough, there is a conspiracy, division commander, I will go and give an order......" The chief of staff's face changed, and after saying this, he rushed out of the tent!

"Da Da Da ......"

Six light machine guns, three submachine guns, three automatic pistols, plus more than a dozen rifles, and a sniper rifle, fired alternately, and soon an impenetrable bullet net was woven in front of the squadron of devil cavalry.

The five or six devil cavalry at the front were caught off guard and fell to the ground with men and horses.

"Smack......

The sniper fired the second bullet, and the cavalry lieutenant who rushed to the front looked at the bloody hole in his chest with a look of disbelief and planted it from his horse.

Until he died, he didn't understand how the Eighth Route Army let the bullet go into his chest when he was lying on horseback.

This is a makeshift arrangement before Li Wen began to attack.

In order to minimize the losses that may be caused to the troops by the devil's air strike, Li Wen made a temporary decision: Two machine guns, a submachine gun, an automatic pistol, and three rifles should form a combat group, which should be spaced twenty or thirty meters apart from each other and arranged on the first line of defense. As for the snipers, they act alone, and no one knows where they are hiding?

Three powerful firing points suddenly appeared, coupled with the cold guns fired by the snipers, and in just half a minute, the casualties of the cavalry squadron reached more than a dozen people. The powerful offensive was also contained.

But at this moment, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from the wings and made the devil excited again.

"Reinforcements are coming~ Warriors, keep rushing forward and kill them......" The squadron leader of the devil cavalry squadron became excited again, brandishing his saber and shouting loudly.

"Retreat ......" As long as these twenty or so fighters hold on for one more minute, they will be surrounded by two squadrons of devil cavalry in a roundabout way, and then they will be completely annihilated. Tang Guangxin, the reconnaissance platoon commander guarding this defensive line, was well aware of this situation and decisively gave the order to retreat.

"Yaga...... The Eighth Route Army wants to run, catch up with them, and kill them...... Kill to give~" The fat devil squadron leader who got to his mouth definitely couldn't let him slip away, plus he had already lost nearly thirty subordinates, if he couldn't kill them, he wouldn't be able to explain to his superiors at all.

Fifty meters...... Thirty meters......

Just when they subconsciously raised their sabers and were about to slash at the backs of these Eighth Route Army, an accident happened.

"Da Da Da ......"

Seventy or eighty meters in front of the bushes, six more tongues of fire emerged.

"Ah...... Baga ......"

Several screams rang out, and four or five horsemen turned over and fell off their horses at the same time, turning into corpses.

"Bageya Road, how can there be troops of the Eighth Route Army...... Conceal and continue to assault forward......" The leader of the devil squadron was shocked and shouted loudly!

At this time, even if he knew that there was an Eighth Route Army intercepting in front, he could only rush forward. He must kill the Eighth Route Army in front of him, give an explanation to the above, and comfort those subordinates who died in battle!

The two cavalry squadrons that took a detour also converged with the cavalry squadron in the middle at this time because of the terrain.

The strength of the cavalry was increased to three squadrons at a time, and the leader of the squadron was more confident, although the losses of the troops were not small, and the harassment decided to continue the assault forward, and there was no intention of retreating.

The devil increases, and with the same firepower density, the hit rate directly doubles.

This time, the three cavalry squadrons of the devils lost nearly forty cavalry before rushing to a position thirty or forty meters away from the firing point.

"Retreat, the submachine gunners cover each other's retreat, retreat to the third line of defense......"

The fat that reached his mouth slipped again, and the devil chose to continue to assault without surprise......

Soon, they ran into the third line of defense that Li Wen had prepared for her, and then the fourth line of defense......

During the whole process, although they killed several Eighth Route Army soldiers with horse rifles, they also trampled the corpses of the Eighth Route Army that fell to the ground into pulp. However, compared to his own losses, the squadron leader even had suicidal thoughts.
