……

Kong Jie's deployment order was quickly conveyed to the various units through the detachment headquarters.

A detachment of outlying guerrilla areas.

As far as the eye could see, at the foot of the vast mountains, a contingent of Japanese puppet troops walked in orderly steps, approaching the farmland area in front of the guerrilla area.

This team is the team led by the Japanese Kamechi Brigade and the Eighth Brigade of the Imperial Army, led by Yan Sanfu.

Just half an hour earlier, Kameda had received an order from the General Headquarters to launch a general attack on the farmland area of the Eighth Route Army.

At the same time, on the way to advance, find a way to contain the main force of the Eighth Route Army that is blocking, and wait for the main force of the sweep in the rear to completely encircle the Eighth Route Army.

After receiving the order, the captain of the devil brigade, Kameike, immediately ordered the whole army to be pulled.

At this time, the role of the puppet army as cannon fodder in the eyes of the Japanese army was reflected.

"Sanfujun, the time has come to test your loyalty to the Japanese Empire, you and lead your team to advance in the front, and I will lead the main force of the brigade to fight against your Imperial Alliance Army at any time!"

Seeing Yan Sanfu's hesitation, after Gui Chi finished his good words, he immediately threatened him, his face sank, and he asked in a thick voice:

"What, Sanfujun, do you want to disobey the orders of the Imperial Japanese Army?"

"Your Excellency Center Left laughed, the order I received from the Eighth Mixed Brigade this time is to assist Your Excellency Center Left to advance the battle, so naturally Your Excellency Center Left will take the lead!"

Yan Sanfu hurriedly replied, secretly complaining in his heart, and scolded these little devils raised by bitches for being unkind, and using themselves as cannon fodder.

Yan Sanfu, who had no choice but to lead his Imperial Association troops, walked in the front line of the Guichi Brigade.

The two teams distanced themselves by nearly 500 meters.

Coupled with the undulating terrain of the mountainous area, the mountains and forests cover the wilderness, and the distance of 500 meters is enough for the two troops to not see each other.

The old devil Kameike, who had succeeded in his treacherous scheme, sent a communications unit to follow the team of the Eighth Mixed Brigade of the puppet army and take the lead in advancing.

Through the signal corps, communication is carried out at any time to the rear brigade headquarters.

...... "Brigade, these bastard little devils, use us as cannon fodder again!" ”

After dividing the troops with the Japanese army, they were far away, and Yan Sanfu's adjutant Wang Dacong leaned next to Yan Sanfu and cursed.

Yan Sanfu, who was full of bitterness, said helplessly: "The little devil has always been this urine, what can we do?" ”

"Clever ah, I'm just worried now, I'm now in the base of this Eighth Route Army, and we know better than anyone who shaves his head."

"Remember that battle a year ago?

Speaking of which, it's all to blame for your kid's bad idea, let us take advantage of the battle between the Japanese army and the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army to sneak attack the flank of the Independent Regiment by taking a small road. ”

"As a result, Kong Jie was angry, and in a fit of anger, he directly pulled out more than a dozen artillery pieces, and under the cover of firepower, he almost wiped out the entire army of our Eighth Mixed Brigade......"

As he spoke, Yan Sanfu couldn't help but shudder.

Every time he thought of being bombarded by Kong Jie, he had more than one season.

Adjutant Wang Dacong was a little embarrassed.

"Hey, it's all in the past, Traveler, why did you bring it up again?"

"But when it comes to that incident, Lao Tzu is so angry...... Okay, let's not talk about that, you hurry up and give me ideas on how to deal with the current situation? ”

Da Ming's eyes rolled, and after thinking for a moment, he took it into account.

He replied: "Brigade, if you want to get through the difficulties in front of you, the way is very simple, one word - drag!" ”

"Drag?"

Wang Dacong nodded categorically:

"Yes, it's drag! This time, our Imperial Allied Army and the Japanese army came to attack in response to the autumn harvest grain of the Eighth Route Army, and they attacked in multiple ways.

But how can Kong Jie be easy to deal with?

I don't believe that in the face of the Japanese army's sweep of the autumn harvest, the Eighth Route Army detachment will be unprepared.

But what means did Balu prepare to trap the little devils, none of us knows.

At this time, isn't that just a shot in the head!

Which advancing army is the fastest and falls into the trap of the Eighth Route first, then it can only consider itself unlucky.

So we have to deliberately slow down the speed, we can't be the first to fall into the trap of the Eighth Route Army, right?

When the battle movement in front of us is heard, we can finally understand what means are hidden in the Eighth Road. ”

"It's got to be you, my cleverness!"

Yan Sanfu, who suddenly came back to his senses, nodded, and he was very appreciative of Adjutant Wang Dacong's proposal.

In this way, the Eighth Mixed Brigade of the Puppet Army played a delaying strategy and deliberately slowed down the pace of advancement.

The old devil who followed in the rear, Kameike, naturally quickly noticed the problem.

He couldn't help but scold: "Bastard, what is this Yan Sanfu doing, why is he walking so slowly?"

Signal soldier, go and urge Yan Sanfu for me, let him speed up the march!

Then the message came in:

"Your Excellency Zuo in the report, according to the news from the Imperial Association Army in the front, they were worried that they would be ambushed by the Eighth Route Army along the way, so they deliberately slowed down their pace and sent reconnaissance troops to reconnoiter along the way in advance, which delayed the speed."

But how could Kameike believe these nonsense?

Having dealt with the puppet army a lot, he naturally understands the urine nature of these guys.

He has always been the best at grinding foreign workers, and he often does not work hard.

Everyone is greedy for life and afraid of death, afraid of hardship and afraid of difficulties.

I really expect them to deal with the Eighth Route Army, unless even the sow will go up the tree.

If it weren't for the fact that in order to maintain the military morale of those imperial allies who surrendered, Guichi couldn't wait to kill the generals in battle and killed Yan Sanfu with one shot.

But now that it was the time to employ people, Guichi had no choice but to temporarily suppress his anger and repeatedly sent people to urge the Imperial Association Army to speed up the march.

After Yan Sanfu received the news, he pretended to speed up the team.

Just waited until the devil's communication soldier left, turned around and asked the team to slow down.

In this way, the Japanese puppet army on Kameda's road was the slowest among the Japanese puppet armies advancing in multiple directions.

……

Detachment command.

News from the front was also not long in coming.

"Lao Kong, there are already nearly three Japanese brigades, plus a few puppet legions, approaching our front agricultural area.

In accordance with the orders of the command, the comrades of the local army and the militia fought and retreated, and gradually lured the little devils in. ”

Kong Jie nodded, and after a little contemplation, he ordered:

"According to the original plan, sing this big show well!

When the main force of the devil enters the farmland area, or even grabs the farmland, it immediately launches an attack.

At the same time, the news was transmitted to the main forces of the 123rd Regiment, so that they could start the operation of grabbing crops in the rear of the Japanese army. ”

"Good!" Xu Guoan responded.

……

"Bastard, this damn Yan Sanfu, when this sweep is over, I must kill him with my own hands!"

In the area of the middle line of the advance to the agricultural area at the front of the detachment, the direction of the advance of the Kameike brigade, because of the slow pace of marching, there was a clear vacancy.

Aware of Yan Sanfu's deliberate delay in speed, Guichi, scolded again and again.

News has already come from the brigade headquarters in several other directions that they are about to enter the farmland of the Eighth Route Army.

Guichi, who couldn't bear it anymore, rushed to the Imperial Association army team at the front with the guards in a fit of rage, and then took out a matching gun, put it directly on Yan Sanfu's head, and scolded:

"Yan Sanfu, you bastard, are you a shrunken turtle here?

If you don't go full throttle, I'll shoot you right now!" ”

Yan Sanfu, who knew how to figure out the thoughts of the Japanese army, estimated that Guichi's patience had basically been exhausted.

He hurriedly smiled and pushed away the gun on the top of his head, and said:

"Your Excellency Squadron Leader, rest assured, I will order an accelerated advance, no, it is full speed forward! All of them trotted towards the farmland area of the Eighth Road! ”

"Taijun, I was worried that these eight roads would be ambushed in the middle of the way, so I searched carefully, which delayed the speed a little, and I ask Taijun to forgive me!"

Immediately afterwards, Yan Sanfu really gave a clear order to march at full speed.

The old devil Kamechi endured his anger at this time.

The Japanese puppet army, which had been delayed, accelerated in vain.

After more than ten minutes......

A few kilometers away, in what seemed to be the farmland area in front of the Eighth Route Army, the sound of battle suddenly broke out, the sound of guns and artillery was mixed, and the movement of the exchange of fire between the two sides was extremely intense.

"Taijun, it's the farmland area in front of the Eighth Route Army!"

Yan Sanfu's face changed slightly, and he spoke.

The battle movement a few kilometers away was extremely fierce, but the two sides were too far away to clear the specific situation ahead.

"Yaga!"

Guichi scolded, and he didn't know whether he was scolding Yan Sanfu for deliberately delaying the pace of the march, or scolding the Eighth Route Army troops who ambushed the Japanese army in front.

"Hurry up!"

Guichi gave an order, he sensed the urgency of the battle ahead, and did not dare to delay any longer, and even directly ordered the elite of the Japanese army to be the vanguard force, with the follow-up Imperial Cooperative Army, and quickly advanced towards the farmland area in front.

It took more than 20 minutes before and after.

The little devils of the Kameike Brigade and the puppet soldiers of the 8th Mixed Brigade finally rushed to the edge of the farmland area in front.

At this time, the terrain around the farmland is higher.

The old devil Guichi and Yan Sanfu can already see clearly the situation in the battle area with the help of telescopes:

As far as the eye can see, there are large areas of yellow farmland, and the stalks of corn planted in large quantities are gently swaying in the wind.

At the edge of these farmlands, Yan Sanfu also saw through the telescope bales of plump corn clumps growing on wheat straw.

Thinking of the aroma of the corn that came out of the boiled mouth, he couldn't help but swallow.

It's just that with the spread of the field of vision

That has all changed......

The smoke of the artillery fire was quite smoky and shrouded in large areas of farmland.

The originally neat straw has already been burned in large numbers under the impact of artillery fire and bullets.

Destroyed by the catharsis of the shock wave of the shell explosion, straw scattered everywhere.

The vast cornfields are like the remnants of bread that have been eaten indiscriminately by countless rats.

What made the captain of the devil brigade, Gui Chi, and Yan Sanfu even more shocked.

In addition to the large amount of burned straw, in the cornfield, under the entanglement of the straw, there were also messy, scattered sand, the corpses of Japanese soldiers lying on the ground.

Boom –

Several more shells burst out from an area a few hundred meters away from the cornfield, and then exploded in the cornfield.

With the faint wail, two or three devils were torn apart in an instant like foam in the fierce explosion.

The terrifying scene instantly pulled Guichi and Yan Sanfu into reality.

Only then did the two realize that the battle in the farmland area was still going on.

The old devil Kameike raised the angle of the telescope upward, and then saw a scene from the perspective of the telescope that he would never forget:

The previous shells were fired from the rear of the farmland, and the power of the shells that fell down was even greater than that of the Type 92 infantry guns.

It seemed to be a cannonball fired by a mechanical vehicle, and when you looked closely, it seemed to be some armored vehicles and tanks produced by his Great Japanese Empire, and even a few commonly used trucks.

For those vehicles, Kameike couldn't be more familiar with him.

The first time was puzzled, how could these vehicles fire such powerful shells?

A series of explosions followed, breaking Kameike's hesitation.

The three Japanese brigades that entered the cornfield area one step ahead of the Guichi Brigade and the Eighth Mixed Brigade of the Puppet Army, as well as two regiments of the Imperial Army, were in a bitter battle at the moment.

Everywhere in the cornfields are shocking, scattered, and a large number of corpses of Japanese puppet soldiers.

It is enough to prove that in this fierce confrontation, the three Japanese brigades that rushed into the cornfield, as well as the two puppet regiments, were dealt a heavy blow.

As the autumn breeze blows, the smoke that envelops the cornfields dissipates a little, and the field of vision becomes more open.

Ghost Chi and Yan Sanfu then saw it...... More horrified corpses were seen.

Without exception, all of them are corpses of Japanese soldiers or puppet soldiers.

The large number of craters in the cornfield proved that in the previous fierce confrontation, the Japanese puppet army that entered the cornfield area was fiercely bombarded by the troops of the Eighth Route Army.

The only remaining Japanese puppet army on the battlefield was fighting stubbornly with the troops of the Eighth Route Army.

In Yan Sanfu's opinion, it is more like a battle of trapped beasts!

I'm afraid it's only a matter of time before these devils and puppet armies are completely wiped out!

After probably investigating, Yan Sanfu had an approximate number in his heart:

There are less than 2,000 troops left!

Yan Sanfu, who instantly realized what this meant, couldn't help but gasp, and a chill came from the bottom of his heart.

From the sudden outbreak of the previous battle, the fierce gunfire came out, to Yan Sanfu and his party quickly arrived.

It was only a little more than 20 minutes before and after.

The three Japanese brigades that originally entered the cornfield area, plus two Imperial Cooperative Regiments, exceeded the 5,000-day puppet army.

In this more than 20 minutes, more than 3,000 people evaporated.

What the hell is this kill speed???

This made Yan Sanfu instantly think of the scene when his Eighth Mixed Brigade was almost wiped out because he was angry and shaved his head, covered by artillery fire.

"It must be a means of shaving the head of Kong!

！ ”

In a panic, Yan Sanfu, who was the commander of the Eighth Mixed Brigade of the dignified puppet army and had thousands of puppet troops under his command, was actually two wars at the moment, if it weren't for the old devil Guichi on the side who was still standing, he couldn't wait to run away.

A large and flat area of cornfield.

The artillery fire is raging.

The attacking troops of the Eighth Route Army became more and more fierce.

Dozens of artillery pieces, including the Type 92 infantry gun, the Jin-made 75mm mountain gun, the American-made 75-mountain gun, and the American-style M2 60 mortar......

The Japanese puppet army, which was completely routed by artillery fire and fled in all directions, continued to bombard.

In the steep autumn wind, there was a faint mixture of howitzers full of excited shouts, "Another hundred rounds of rapid fire!" ”

Corresponding to it was the voice of Wang Chengzhu, commander of the First Artillery Battalion: "The elevation angle of the infantry artillery is increased by three, and fifty rounds are fired rapidly, cut off the devil's retreat for me!" ”

This is the first elite artillery combat company of the two artillery battalions of the Eighth Route Army, which is competing to open fire.

In addition to these immovable guns, there were more than a dozen artillery groups, using smaller caliber guns to supplement the fire during the rapid advance of the artillery squads.

More meticulously eliminate the Japanese puppet army in the cornfield.

Two cavalry tanks, plus four armoured vehicles and three military vehicles, accompanied by additional 75mm howitzers, fired at full speed from the edge of the cornfield, detouring on both flanks.

Accompanied by constant bombardment from 75-mm howitzers.

The devils and puppet soldiers who blew up the cornfields are ghosts crying wolves.

The follow-up support artillery with high-speed mobility shows its power to the fullest on the battlefield at this moment.

After Yan Sanfu's rough estimate, the casualties of the Japanese puppet army, which were already less than 2,000 people, continued to spread rapidly.

And the nine mobile vehicles equipped with 75mm howitzers, the direction of impact at this moment is the Guichi Brigade and the Eighth Mixed Brigade of the puppet army, which are rushing to follow......
