Zhangjiazhuang all the way.

Looking at the large number of Japanese puppet troops retreating backwards, Li Yunlong's eyes lit up, these guys were all pieces of fat that would run away in Lao Li's opinion.

On the side, Zhang Dabiao, whose hat was gone, had already put on his beloved Czech style, looking eager to try, "Commander, how do we fight?" ”

Li Yunlong looked at the retreating Japanese puppet army, and the ghost idea immediately came to his mind, and said: "At present, the horizontal front in this direction of the devil's puppet army's retreat is too long, and we have few people, so we will definitely not be able to stop the devil's retreat, so in this way, Da Biao, you immediately arrange a company of teams, equipped with more machine guns and grenadiers."

Do you see the gentle slope in the direction of the middle line of the mountain? Build machine gun fortifications for me, and block the retreat of the Japanese puppet army directly from the front.

The independent regiment in Zhangjiazhuang has also launched a counteroffensive, and now the devil puppet army is only concerned about retreating, and will definitely not forcibly seize our gentle slope fortifications.

At that time, the devils and the puppet army can only break through to the left and right.

And the battle line on the left and right sides is much narrower, and we will rely on the mountainous environment on both sides to set up an ambush.

Suddenly attacked, and it was specified that the devil puppet army could be stunned.

Let's fight for a certain amount of time, Lao Kong's side will soon be able to lead the team to pounce, and then we will attack back and forth, and slowly clean up this group of devils. ”

"Yes!"

Zhang Dabiao replied in a deep voice, the command given by the regiment commander is always so convincing.

……

Time goes on.

The Japanese puppet army, which received the order to retreat, gradually withdrew from Zhangjiazhuang and Xicun, and then moved in the direction of the ambush of the new 1st regiment and the new 2nd regiment respectively.

West Village Temporary Command.

Kong Jie gave the order for a counteroffensive, and at the same time arranged a signal corps to inform the local troops and militia guerrillas around Niukou Village to prepare for an ambush in the mountains along the way where the Japanese army retreated.

In the words of Head Kong:

"The opportunity to beat the water dogs has come, and if you want to eat meat, this is your last chance."

……

Outside the West Village.

During the retreat, a large number of Japanese troops still maintained an orderly battle formation, with escort troops on both flanks and guard troops at the tail.

Even on the way back, the little devil can still launch a powerful counterattack.

The machine gun covers the retreat of the infantry, the grenadier covers the retreat of the machine gunner, and then the retreating infantry covers the retreat of the artillery with firepower, alternately covering, coordinated operations, and tacit cooperation.

On the side of the independent regiment, several battalion commanders were also a little helpless, and it was even more difficult to pursue the retreating devils than to block the devils' attacks.

After all, when the devils attacked, the soldiers waited for their work, deployed with strict firepower, and waited for the devils to take the initiative to attack and send them to death.

But when the devil retreated, the situation changed completely.

The devils retreated quickly while moving, and the soldiers chased too closely, and it was easy to suffer all kinds of firepower from the devils, resulting in unnecessary casualties.

If you strike with long-range fire, if you can't shoot a few shots, the devil troops will exceed the effective firing range of the 50 small guns.

During the pursuit all the way, Wang Leihu, the commander of the first battalion, rushed forward with the soldiers, and scolded angrily: "Damn, the devils who escaped are not happy, and they are as slippery as loaches." ”

The commander of the first company said: "Battalion commander, the devil wants to escape, we really can't stop it, fortunately, at the moment, our task is to chase the little devil, and Commander Ding should have led a new group to ambush in the middle of the road at this time." ”

"When the comrades of the new regiment entangle the little devil, we will be able to bite it immediately."

Wang Leihu laughed at this time and said: "Pass the order, let the comrades keep a distance from the devil, the little devil's marksmanship is not bad, and the gunner is even more accurate." ”

"Now that the little devil is defeated, there is no need for us to add more casualties."

"After the distance with the devil is shortened to the range of the 50 small cannon, just bombard it directly, if it doesn't work, add two more propellant packs, so that we can hit the devil, and the devil can't hit us."

"Yes!"

……

"Hit!"

The Japanese puppet army retreating from Xicun soon arrived at the area of the ambush of the new regiment, and the commander of the first battalion, Sun Zhenguo, gave an order, and Ding Wei arranged a battalion of soldiers on the right flank of the puppet army to suddenly launch a fierce attack.

The firepower of the new regiment is also not weak, and it is estimated that it is second only to the independent regiment among the Eighth Route Legion-level combat units in the entire Taihang base area.

A 50 small cannon with a grenadier cannon, a modified door, and a light and heavy machine gun suddenly launched a fire attack.

A dense network of fire poured down towards the puppet army on the right.

The puppet army that was originally a little chaotic in the process of retreating all the way, and the only loose formation was directly defeated.

How could the puppet soldiers expect a new sudden blow and were directly stunned.

The fire attack from the right flank, the puppet army was completely unable to parry.

When the desire to survive exploded, and there was nowhere to hide and couldn't rush out, the puppet soldiers could only ask for help from the Japanese army on the left flank, and they rushed towards the devil team one by one in a panic.

Once threatened, you naturally have to hide behind your owner.

The little devil on the left is also a little confused now, for the eight ways that launched an attack on the right, because of the obstruction of the puppet army troops sandwiched in the middle, the devil is not easy to carry out a firepower counterattack for a while.

And these puppet soldiers, who were greedy for life and afraid of death, rushed towards the Japanese defense troops on the right flank in a disorderly manner.

One by one, the devil officers roared angrily, telling the puppet army to keep their composure, stabilize their positions, and organize a counterattack.

It's just that the puppet soldiers who are only concerned about fleeing for their lives, how can they care about this?

"Yaga, you bastards, keep me calm!"

Several devil squadron leaders who were responsible for covering the right flank of the main force drew their command knives and roared angrily, they are not stupid, the chaotic impact of the puppet army at the moment is likely to break up the defensive formation on their right flank.

If the Eighth Route takes the opportunity to attack, the form can be greatly unpleasant.

"Open fire to prevent the Imperial Allied Army from attacking the defensive formation!"

Seeing that the persuasion of the roar was ineffective, a short-tempered devil squadron leader gave the order to open fire, and the devil machine gunners who served as the right flank defense pulled the trigger, and under the sudden fire, the rows of puppet soldiers who rushed over fell one after another.

The puppet army team that was originally bent on fleeing for their lives was stunned, and one by one, their hearts were mixed with anger and sadness.

These poor brethren did not die at the hands of their enemies, but at the hands of their own people.

The devil's thunderous methods shocked the chaotic puppet army for a while.

The puppet soldiers hesitated in the face of the muzzles erected by the Japanese, and some of them were forced to turn their guns and prepare to fight the new regiment on the right flank.

Boom –

At this moment, more than a dozen shells exploded in the camp of the Japanese right flank guard units.

The leader of the devil squadron who had previously ordered to fire at the puppet army was even more unlucky and was killed on the spot in the explosion.

A voice shouted from the fleeing puppet army: "Brothers, the Eighth Road is behind us, but the devil won't let us live!" Now that we are desperate, if we want to live, we have to fight with the little devils! ”

"Kill—"

Bang –

I don't know who fired the gun first, in short, someone in the puppet army camp shot and killed the devil.

The war is anxious, the puppet army who only cares about their lives, and the devils who are worried about it, no one can think about it.

There is only one fact at hand:

Your Imperial Army has killed the soldiers of the Great Japanese Empire, this is about to rebel!

You little devil took the lead in firing and shooting our Imperial Army, this is completely out of life!

The devil even suspected that the cannonball that had just exploded was done by the puppet army.

Of course, this is to wronged these two devils, these shells were naturally fired by the soldiers under the command of the first battalion commander Sun Zhenguo with 50 small cannons, and the purpose is to make the central region where the puppet army and the devils clash, and the contradictions are even deeper.

As for the voices in the puppet army camp before.

It may be that some traitors have woken up and are asking for credit from the Eighth Road in order to survive, or it may be some soldiers in the puppet army camp who have been rebelled.

In short, the Japanese army and the puppet army, who distrust each other and are wary of each other, and at the critical juncture of the war, a spark ignited the war between the two sides in an instant.

The puppet soldiers probably forgot that they and the little devils were originally in the same group.

Some have not forgotten that they have always adhered to the basic principle of survival: it is better to mess with devils than to provoke eight roads!

The firepower exchange between the two sides escalated instantly.

Some of the officers in the devil turned their brains relatively quickly, realizing that this was the Eighth Road sowing discord, and hurriedly yelled, hoping that the puppet soldiers could calm down.

The result has not yet worked, Sun Zhenguo directly asked people to find a few loudspeakers, and shouted at the puppet army:

"The Chinese do not fight the Chinese, brothers of the Imperial Cooperative Army, pick up your guns and aim at the little devils, kill one devil, all are wrong, and our Eighth Route Army will not pursue it!"

As soon as these words came out, the puppet army team instantly boiled.

The devil officers, who could understand Chinese, changed their faces drastically.

"Shoot—"

The little devil didn't expect to persuade the Imperial Association Army anymore, and decided to strike first.

When the puppet soldiers saw the devils firing, they were not happy or not, and they were forced to turn their guns and fight the Japanese army.

The Japanese army's orderly withdrawal formation soon began to become chaotic.

Ding Wei, who was ambushed in the mountains and forests on the left flank, saw that Sun Zhenguo's side had succeeded, and immediately issued an order to charge from the left flank.

The strength of a battalion launched an attack directly under the loud charge.

For a time, the shouts of the Eighth Road were everywhere, and the loud charge resounded through the world.

The puppet soldiers who were sandwiched between the Japanese army and the Eighth Route Army, seeing that the Eighth Route Army was full of Changhong, expected that the little devils would be more auspicious and less auspicious, and they never hesitated to choose the grass on the wall, turned their guns one by one, and fought the devils more hard.

The soldiers who originally attacked the puppet army from the right flank, under Sun Zhenguo's order, avoided the puppet army, and even cooperated with the puppet army to flank the Japanese army from the right flank.

At this time, the devil was flanked left and right, and he was caught by the Eighth Route Army and the puppet army.

The two sides fought for less than five minutes.

The 1st and 4th Battalions of the Independent Regiment, which rushed out of the West Village, also caught up and launched an attack on the Japanese from the rear.

All the way to the West Village, it can be seen from a big eye that the defeat of the Japanese army has been decided.

……

……

Zhangjiazhuang all the way.

It is worthy of him Li Yunlong, the brave wins when he meets on a narrow road, and the team of a company even dares to show his sword directly to the Japanese army of nearly three brigades who have withdrawn!

Plus light and heavy machine gun and grenadier firepower in additionally reinforced configurations.

The devils and puppet soldiers who had just retreated from Zhangjiazhuang were stunned by the sudden fire blocking in the direction of the gentle slope.

At this time, if we look at it from God's point of view, we can actually get a fairly simple conclusion:

Although Li Yunlong's team arranged to block the attack on the gentle slope was well-equipped and had strong firepower.

But the number of troops is too small, only more than 100 soldiers, but they are facing a Japanese puppet army with thousands of troops.

Plus the open front outside the village.

The retreating Japanese puppet army only needs to grit its teeth a little, and it can easily arrange Li Yunlong in this company that is blocking the front, and there are not even bones and slag left to swallow.

This is common sense.

However, he Li Yunlong did not play his cards according to the rules, so he swaggered the troops of a company in this area in the front direction of the retreat of your Japanese puppet army to block it.

The retreating devil officers estimated that because the situation was urgent, and they were worried that they had fallen into the trick of the Eighth Road, they did not bypass the corner for a while, and the troops of the Independent Regiment behind them were chasing closely.

The devil officers didn't think much about it, and after being blocked head-on, they immediately divided their troops into two ways and decided to make a detour from the left and right to bypass this company of the New Second Regiment that was blocked head-on.

Then this scene is shocking, more than 100 soldiers of the new 2nd Regiment were stunned to split more than 3,000 Japanese puppet troops from the middle into two.

This may be the power of meeting on a narrow road and having the courage to show the sword!

Zhang Dabiao, who saw this scene, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then secretly glanced at his head of his regiment, only to see that Li Yunlong was calm and calm.

Da Biao had to secretly admire the stability of the regiment leader's psychological quality.

After the Japanese puppet soldiers divided into two routes, they soon entered a relatively narrow battle line area and stepped into the ambush circle arranged by Li Yunlong for the troops near the mountains and forests on both wings.

After the battle began, the little devil was dumbfounded.

Why are there ambushes on both sides?

The soldiers of the company that had originally blocked the gentle slope of the middle line were divided into two parts, occupying a higher terrain, and planning to ambush the teams on both flanks, respectively, to flank the Japanese puppet army.

The two sides did not fight for long.

Shen Quan and Du Aiguo led the soldiers of the second and fifth battalions to catch up from Zhangjiazhuang, and combined with Li Yunlong's troops to flank the Japanese puppet army on three sides.

When the news reached the temporary headquarters of Xicun, the boulder hanging in Kong Jie's heart finally fell.

"It's done both ways, and then it's up to you to see how much meat you can nibble down."

As for the Japanese reinforcement, the plan of gathering a full nine Japanese brigades, plus the fourth mixed brigade of the Japanese army, in an attempt to destroy the independent regiment in one fell swoop, has completely come to naught.

By 2:35 p.m.

The Japanese puppet troops in the direction of Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang suffered heavy casualties.

In the end, reinforcements came from Taiyuan City, and the two brigades of the Japanese army stationed near Niukou Village came to support in time.

Only then did the remaining main forces of the Japanese puppet army, which covered the two roads of Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang, flee all the way.

With the disastrous defeat of the Japanese army in the battles of Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang, the two Japanese brigades that rushed to support were also worried that the main force of the Eighth Route Army would take the opportunity to surround them.

So much so that on the way to cover the retreat of the Japanese puppet army on the two roads of Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang, he was quite in a hurry.

The Japanese puppet army had many troops that were divided and surrounded by the soldiers of the Independent Regiment, the New First Regiment, and the New Second Regiment, and the devils were too late and did not dare to rescue them.

There are also many wounded soldiers in the wounded soldiers' storage center, and the devils and puppet soldiers have no time to transfer during the evacuation.

Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei also took the troops to enjoy it slowly.

A large number of puppet soldiers became prisoners, and as for the stubborn little devils, the persuasion was ineffective, so it was natural to kill.

Subsequently, on the way back all the way, passing through the mountainous areas, the Japanese puppet army troops suffered considerable casualties one after another under the tactical sneak attacks of the local troops of the Eighth Route Army and guerrillas along the way, such as guerrilla warfare, sparrow warfare, and sports warfare.

Until they fled all the way back to the rear county, after the ghost puppet army was frightened, they were all depressed and full of humiliation.

A nightmare that lasted for nearly nine days is finally over.

At this point, the Japanese army launched a large-scale spring sweep on the 12th.

In the end, the curtain came to an end with nine Japanese brigades, plus the fourth mixed brigade in the area of Xicun and Zhangjiazhuang, and the Eighth Route Army in the northwest iron triangle of Shanxi.

Before the evening of the 20th, the Japanese troops were swept away from all directions, and they withdrew to various county towns in the occupied area one after another, and temporarily entered into rest.

A violent storm calmed down in all directions......
