The 136th Infantry Wing was stationed, and the Wing Commander gave the order with excitement on his face.

In another ten minutes, it only takes ten minutes, and the roundabout troops sent out by themselves can block the rear road of the Eighth Route Army in front of them, and then encircle and annihilate them.

The four infantry wings under the jurisdiction of the division and regiment did not suffer any major casualties in the more than 10 days of marching of the 136th Wing. If you can also kill more than 1,000 Eighth Route Army in front of you with very small casualties tonight. The wing commander is sure that he will definitely become the most favored wing captain of the entire division and regiment!

At present, the division and regiment still lack a brigade commander, and it is impossible to understand that the position of brigade commander is vacant for his own sake.

"Sir, it seems that the Eighth Route Army attacking us is about to retreat!" A report suddenly interrupted the captain's dream.

The fat that was delivered to the mouth wanted to slip away, and it was absolutely not allowed...... This is the first thought of the co-captain at this moment.

With a frown, he ordered: "Order the roundabout troops to speed up...... Frontal blocking of troops, direct counterattack. The offensive must be fierce, and the retreating troops of the Eighth Route Army will be killed with lightning speed, and as many of them as they can be killed? ”

The sound of gunfire, which had just weakened on the battlefield, became fierce again.

Hundreds of devils, armed with rifles with bayonets and light machine guns, rushed out of the garrison like wolves and tigers, and the weapons in their hands kept shooting forward......

As the sound of gunfire became farther and farther away from him, another subordinate rushed over: "Sir, the roundabout troops only intercepted less than a company of the Eighth Route Army, and the others have run away, and the counterattacking troops demand to pursue them immediately and kill them!" ”

"Agreed!" The co-captain made a decisive decision.

Then he thought of the explanation of the division commander, Lieutenant General Ito, and reminded with a frown: "But I want to remind them that it is night, and the Eighth Route Army is the best at night warfare and guerrilla warfare." Therefore, the pursuing force must remember that it cannot be divided again, and it cannot pursue too far alone. We have just arrived here, we are not familiar with the terrain, and we are likely to be bitten back by the cunning Eighth Route Army! ”

"In addition, appoint the captain of the first brigade as the temporary commander, and command all the attack troops at the same time!"

The news of the headquarters of the Japanese division, a total of four routes and eight route army troops, broke through the encirclement and retreated one after another, and also reached the ears of Lieutenant General Ito.

In the face of the pursuit orders issued by several wing commanders, the first reaction of the chief of staff of the division and regiment was inappropriate!

"Division commander, the troops are all chased out, isn't that a chance for the Eighth Route Army to attack our remaining troops and meet their troops in the city?" The chief of staff reminded with a frown.

"I suggest that a telegram be sent to a few wing commanders at once to tell them to stop the pursuit. Anyway, we didn't have much to lose, and each of the troops more or less wiped out some of the Eighth Route Army, and in terms of results, we didn't suffer! ”

"Also, it's dark now, and our troops are unfamiliar with the place, so it is easy to be attacked by the Eighth Route Army, or even counterattack......"

Lieutenant General Ito shook his head and refused very decisively.

"No, if our troops don't attack and are not fooled, how can we lure out the hidden troops of the Eighth Route Army, and then annihilate them all!"

"As for the night battle you are worried about, we can remind a few wing commanders that all the attacking troops must not chase too far, cannot go deep alone, and cannot divide the troops, so there will be no problem!"

The chief of staff did not let go of his frowning brows, hesitated for a moment and continued to remind: "However, we don't know where the Eighth Route Army's hidden troops are hiding and from which gate they will receive their troops in the city. And our cavalry wing and chariot troops are all in the west of the city, and if we want to quickly reinforce several other city gates, it will take twenty minutes as fast as it is, and more than half an hour if it is slow. With such a long period of time, there can be a lot of surprises! ”

Lieutenant General Ito replied with a confident face: "I still have this confidence!" ”

"We have an infantry brigade left behind at each of our gates. Even if there is a regiment in the hidden force of the Eighth Route Army, an infantry brigade can easily hold it for half an hour. What's more, based on our judgment of the strength of the Eighth Route Army, this latent force has a few hundred people at most, so the threat to our remaining troops is even smaller! ”

The chief of staff's frowning brow finally relaxed.

After a moment's hesitation, he replied: "Division commander, you are right, I am too worried...... I immediately sent a telegram to several wing commanders asking them to increase their vigilance, especially the attacking troops......"

The front enemy headquarters of the new regiment, the battle situation on the front line was continuously summarized to this small command headquarters through the reconnaissance platoon, so that Wang Ping could refer to it and issue new combat orders.

"Regiment commander, the latest situation, the Japanese troops guarding outside the four city gates have all dispatched a large number of troops to pursue our retreating troops......"

Wang Ping didn't show any smile on his face.

At present, the situation of the war is developing in the direction of its own inference. However, it is still unknown whether the assault battalion will be able to successfully meet the direct unit and the guard company. There are many, many other factors to consider.

frowned, stared at Tang Guangxin and asked rhetorically.

"Immediately figure out how many people are left by the little devils in the four city gates, the sooner the better!"

"Chief of Staff, order the assault battalion to be ready for battle, light and heavy machine guns, mortars, grenadiers, and infantry guns, all set up for me!"

After twenty minutes of hard waiting, Tang Guangxin finally returned.

"Regiment commander, it's been figured out that there is an infantry brigade of left-behind troops at each city gate, blocking the city gate......"

"In addition, there are one or two thousand cavalry and a chariot brigade of devils in the devil's garrison in the west of the city that has not moved~"

Huang Yuanqiang, who had not spoken, suddenly interrupted: "Regiment leader, the devil must already know the purpose of our battle~"

"Each of the four city gates left an infantry brigade, and it was blocked at the city gate, which is obviously to prevent us from sending troops to meet the troops in the city!"

"There are also those cavalry and chariots in the west of the city, which are highly mobile, and can quickly reinforce no matter which city gate is attacked, and then use their powerful assault ability to kill our response troops~"

"Devil, this is a huge trap for us to drill!"

"I suggest, stop the operation now, you can't let the assault battalion go on an adventure!"

"As for the guard company and the direct team, Linfen City is so big, it is completely possible for them to lurk on the spot, and then find a way to get out of the city after the rumor passes!"

The commissar's proposal was undoubtedly very pertinent and directly minimized the losses of the troops.

However, Wang Ping's tense face did not change, and he insisted on answering: "The action cannot be stopped!" ”

"Commissar, you ignored the devil's revenge......"

"If they don't go out of the city and continue to lurk in the city, with the character of a devil, even if they turn Linfen City upside down, they will have to find out the guard company and the direct team. During the whole process, there must have been a large number of people in the city who were hidden and slaughtered by the little devils, even if those people were people who were unwilling to take refuge in the city! ”

"Hundreds, even thousands of unarmed civilians were slaughtered because of our guard company and direct subordinate team, I, Wang Ping, as the commander of the new regiment, will never allow this kind of thing to happen, even if I will fight the guard company and the direct team!"

Huang Yuanqiang was stunned for a few seconds before he reacted, and then replied with a painful face: "Our Eighth Route Army is the team of the common people, and I feel that we can't let the people die because of us, and so many people die...... Commander, you're right! ”
