A large amount of food and property of the Song family was looted out by the people, and the people in the town were very busy, some of them were busy preparing dry food for Feng Yi, and most of the dry food of the Song family was destroyed in the battle just now, and not every brother remembered to bring dry food.

"Sir, bury the partisan brethren here! This piece of feng shui is good, and during the New Year's holidays, the people in the town will not forget them and will worship. ”

Hundreds of young men dug countless pits, and several old men were waiting with pens, waiting for the ** brothers to bury them and write their names on the wooden signs; And the devils and traitors were not treated that way, they were thrown into a big pit, and after they were hastily filled, no one cared about them anymore.

"It's time for us to go, thank you, folks!"

Feng Yi looked at the enthusiastic people in front of him, he didn't know what to say except thank you; Now there were less than a hundred brothers left in the battalion, and more than a dozen wounded, and the people of the town had prepared stretchers for them, which were carried by the brothers.

"Come back early!"

In the expectant eyes of the people, Feng Yi led the team to set off again, and continued to march south in the darkness.

Tianmu Mountain Range, the camp of the Suwan detachment, a new day has come.

"Brigade commander, today is the third day, and there is still no news."

The staff officer shook his head, and now it is basically possible to conclude the end of the total annihilation of the troops after the decision, three days have passed since their retreat, and there is still no news, basically all of them have concluded that the battalion directly under Feng Yi has been completely annihilated.

"Wang Tongguang, how is the reorganization of the directly subordinate battalion going?"

Mei Chunhua's face was gloomy, and he asked his direct battalion commander.

"Brigade commander, there are only more than 100 people in the battalion directly under him, but most of them are auxiliary troops, and the combat unit only has two squads of the guard company; There is a shortage of officers, equipment, and veterans. ”

After Wang Tongguang stood upright, he reported to the brigade commander that he couldn't help it, this battle, the battalion directly under the 31st Brigade was finished, and it didn't take long to retrain it, and this was not something that could be completed by simply replenishing the troops.

"I've made up the number of people for you! Then let's start training! Veterans and officers, now every company is lacking, this time to start again, those two regiment commanders can ...... with me"

Mei Chunhua sighed, walked out of the simple wooden house, involuntarily lit a cigarette, and looked at the sky to the north, where there seemed to be a temporary struggle of the brothers in the direct battalion.

"Didi ......"

At the headquarters of the Suwan detachment, the radio station has been working, and a staff officer took a telegram, strode into the headquarters, and handed it directly to Ye Peigao.

"On May 20, the Japanese army occupied Xuzhou; The Battle of Xuzhou ended, and the battle ......"

The telegram was simple, but the news came that it was indeed devastating, and the Battle of Xuzhou was over.

After experiencing the great victory in Taierzhuang, the squadron that participated in the battle miscalculated the situation and attempted to gather and annihilate the Japanese army again near Xuzhou, and the Japanese army regrouped its forces, and the 3rd Division, the 9th Division, the 13th Division, the 11th Division and other eight divisions and two mixed brigades and three detachments attacked the Xuzhou area from three sides, and the squadron had to abandon Xuzhou again and slowly retreat.

"Circulate it to the main regiment and order them to quickly reorganize the troops."

Ye Peigao slowly put down the telegram and sighed, the devils won in Xuzhou, they should be uncomfortable again, the devils will definitely increase the intensity of the security war in the occupied areas, and there may not be so many loopholes for them to exploit in the future.

"When will the replenished supplies and equipment arrive?"

Ye Peigao is bitter! finally fought a big battle, but in addition to the loss of soldiers, there were not many gains, and the key was that the equipment was still very lost, which made him very annoyed.

"The supplies and equipment replenished by the war zone have been sent out, and they are expected to arrive in Ningguo in seven days."

The staff officer mechanically repeated the reply that had been sent back.

"Is there any addition to the Eleventh Division?"

Ye Peigao suddenly remembered something and asked the staff officer.

"Forget it, I'll ask myself!"

Looking at the staff officer with a blank face, Ye Peigao remembered that his main position now is the commander of the Suwan detachment, and the supplies of Division Commander Peng Shan may not pass through him, and will be directly given to the 31st Brigade.

"Follow me to the 31st Brigade."

Peng Shan explained to the guard platoon and went with him, since he withdrew here, Mei Chunhua was no longer with the headquarters, but set up the brigade headquarters of the 31st Brigade by himself, directly commanding the two regiments.

Ye Peigao also had no choice, the losses of the rest of the troops were also very large, he wanted to see what equipment Mei Chunhua had gotten, if it was about the same, he was ready to adjust the materials and equipment given by the war zone, and add a little more to other troops, otherwise it would be difficult for this unit to bring; This is the helplessness of the patchwork troops, this is just a temporary detachment, all the troops are transferred, sooner or later they will have to return to the original troops, if he doesn't give benefits, how effective his orders will be, it's really hard to say.

Ten kilometers east of Xuancheng, Feng Yi was resting with his brothers at this time, and with dry food, he only needed to boil some hot water; In one night, they walked less than 40 kilometers, mainly because there were too many wounded, and the brothers had to take turns to carry them, which was too wasteful of physical strength.

"Huhuhu......"

Lying on the ground, the brothers snored and fell asleep one by one.

"Battalion commander, it's only more than thirty kilometers away from Ningguo here, why don't we send the wounded soldiers back first?"

Gao Yurong pointed to the wounded soldiers on the ground, their condition was getting worse and worse, and they urgently needed to be treated, if they went to the Tianmu Mountain Range as ordered, at the current rate, it would take at least two days, he was worried that the wounded soldiers would die on the road.

"Since the breakout, we have not had the opportunity to report our whereabouts to the headquarters, and if we don't return to the construction in time, the people in the political training department will be looking for trouble again!"

Feng Yi frowned, he committed a lot of things on the road this time, and many of his behaviors violated military discipline, he was sure that the people from the political training office in the team would report it, if he didn't return to the building in time, I am afraid he would hang again.

"But battalion commander, some of these brothers already have a fever!"

Gao Yurong looked at the wounded soldiers worriedly, he really couldn't bear to watch the brothers die on the road.

"Let the brethren take turns to rest, and in four hours they will set off for Ningguo."

Feng Ye didn't care about the rank and position on his shoulders, if he could exchange this thing for the lives of his brothers, of course he wouldn't hesitate, he was just worried that in addition to his rank and position, he might have other punishments.

Feng Yi looked around, he must know this road, this is the way they came out of Ningguo, and if they walk forward for more than ten kilometers, they can enter the official road, maybe they can meet the brother troops at that time, and if they can get a carriage, they can easily return to Ningguo; As for the issue of returning to the country, when you arrive in Ningguo, you can naturally contact the brigade commander and take care of the lives of the brothers first.
