"Yaga, retreat!"

Watch the dense artillery fire explode around and the Eighth Route Army dispatch cavalry to intercept it.

Takamori Takashi decisively ordered the horse to turn his head, and turned around and ran away from the way he came.

This road is not working!

In the dense artillery fire, the personal guards cavalry of the two division commanders beside him were hit by shrapnel one after another.

In just a few minutes, more than half of the casualties were killed.

And.

The Eighth Route Army dispatched cavalry to intercept it, and Takamori Xiao estimated that even if he could break out of the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army, it would be difficult for him to escape the encirclement and interception of the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army, because there were too few troops around him.

It didn't take long for Takashi Takamori and Seiichi Aoki to lead the rest of the cavalry to flee back to their starting positions.

At this time, Nishihara Seifu Dazuo sent a telegram to all wings and brigades to disperse and break through to Baoding.

Looking at Takashi Takamori and Seiichi Aoki who turned back, Seio Nishihara's face was stunned.

"Division commander, Lieutenant General Aoki, you ...... How did you get back? Seio Nishihara asked in surprise.

"Nishihara-kun, your analysis is correct, the northwest direction of the battlefield is indeed the weak point of the Eighth Route Army's encirclement."

Lieutenant General Takashi Takamori quickly turned over and dismounted and said:

"What about the cavalry wing? Let the cavalry wing immediately converge with the division headquarters, and we will immediately break through from the northwest of the battlefield! ”

"Your Excellency, Division Commander." Nishihara Seifu Dazuo was stunned and said, "I just received the news that the cavalry wing launched an attack on the tank unit of the Eighth Route Army, and all the jade has been shattered!" ”

"Nani?"

"The whole cavalry wing is broken?"

Takamori's eyes widened suddenly.

Is it so fast?

At this time, Takashi Mori regretted very much, he should not have sent a cavalry wing to attack the tank troops of the Eighth Route Army.

If the cavalry wing is still there, it will definitely be able to cover the regimental headquarters of the 11th Division and the regimental headquarters of the 40th Division, break through from the weak point of the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army, and break through in the northwest direction of the battlefield.

Now that the entire cavalry wing has been shattered, and the breakthrough of the two divisions and regimental headquarters has been repulsed, the Eighth Route Army will definitely make up for the weak point of this encirclement.

Without the cover of the cavalry wing, it would have been difficult for them to break out.

Lieutenant General Aoki on the side also had a solemn face.

"Hey."

Seio Nishihara bowed his head.

"What about the southern part of the battlefield?" Aoki asked in a deep voice, "Can we break through from the south and then take a detour back to Baoding, or go directly to Lu Province." ”

Seio Nishihara smiled bitterly: "Lieutenant General Aoki, I just received news that a large number of cavalry units of the Eighth Route Army have appeared in the southern part of the battlefield, with at least five cavalry wings...... There are also heavy supplies of our three divisions, which also fell into the hands of the Eighth Route Army. ”

Aoki's face suddenly became solemn.

The strength of the five cavalry wings, in this kind of plain terrain, was a greater threat to the Japanese army than the main force of the tens of thousands of Eighth Route Army.

As soon as the formation of the Japanese army is disrupted by the cavalry, the Japanese army of three divisions will be reduced to lambs to the slaughter!

Takashi Takashi Takashi now regrets sending cavalry to attack the tank units of the Eighth Route Army.

However, at that time, he did not know that there were tens of thousands of main forces of the Eighth Route Army in the north, which had blocked the passage of the Japanese army to the north.

But regretting it now doesn't help.

How to break through is the key.

His face was gloomy and he quickly analyzed the situation.

In the north, there are more than 50,000 main forces of the Eighth Route Army, and from the analysis of artillery firepower alone, it is not a star and a half that is stronger than the troops of the Eighth Route Army in central Hebei, and it is likely to be the main force of the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

With all the cavalry wings shattered, it was impossible for the locusts to break through the defense line north of the Eighth Route Army in a short period of time.

In the east, the Locust Army fought fiercely with the Eighth Route Army's Jizhong troops for a whole day, but failed to defeat the Eighth Route Army in Jizhong.

To the south there were thousands of elite cavalry of the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

The thousands of elite cavalry of the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army have outstanding achievements and reputation, and Ying Sen Xiao does not dare to touch them easily.

And to the west of the battlefield, there were hundreds of tanks of the Eighth Route Army, most of which were heavy tanks!

This is a terrifying force that is enough to make the entire Imperial Japanese Army tremble.

Thinking of this, Ying Senxiao's face became more and more ugly and dignified.

Now he and his locust army have reached a situation where there is no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth.

Lieutenant General Takashi Takamori thought of a central flowering tactic.

Here they dragged the main force of the Eighth Route Army, and waited until the main locust army of the North China Front arrived and surrounded the main force of the Eighth Route Army.

But as soon as this idea appeared, it was snuffed out by Takashi Takamori.

With the strength of the Eighth Route Army now, not to mention that their three divisions can't last that long.

Even if it can last so long, the main force of the locust army of the North China Front dares to come, but it is just to deliver food.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, what should we do now?"

Seio Nishihara, who has always been resourceful, has no choice at this time.

After he gave the order, he was ready to follow a force to break through, but he didn't expect Takashi Takamori and Seiichi Aoki to be beaten back.

"Now we have to wait for dark, and we will break through after dark!"

"Also."

"Immediately report our situation to the North China Front and request tactical guidance!"

Takashi looked at the watch in his hand, it was almost dark, and he said in a sad tone.

Night combat and close combat are the forte of the Eighth Route Army, whether they can break through successfully, Takashi Taka is really not sure.

At this time.

Ying Mori Xiao hated Sun Liangcheng to the extreme, and he couldn't wait to eat his flesh and gnaw on his bones.

If he hadn't deliberately provided false information, how could the 11th, 40th, and 56th Divisions be surrounded by the Eighth Route Army?

But it's useless to say anything now, so I can only go all out to break through and settle accounts with Sun Liangcheng after the autumn.

"Hey."

Seio Nishihara bowed his head:

"I'm going to gather the most elite locust army troops and cover the division commander and Lieutenant General Aoki to break through!"

……

"Regiment commander, I just reported to the 17th Infantry Battalion of the interspersed troops."

At the regimental headquarters of the new regiment, the communications staff officer reported to Li Yunlong:

"There was a group of devil cavalry, about 100 cavalry about 100 horses intended to break through from the northwest direction of the battlefield, but they were shelled by our army, and a small group of cavalry was dispatched to intercept it, and this group of devil cavalry was driven back."

Li Yunlong's expression moved, and he said:

"This group of devils has something, and they really let the devils find the weak point of the encirclement?"

"If the devil's cavalry is more, maybe this devil will really escape the encirclement."

王德厚 says:

"Regiment commander, Sun Desheng reported to the regiment headquarters about 5 minutes ago that they have completely annihilated the devil's cavalry."

"The devils no longer have any extra cavalry to storm our encirclement line."

Li Yunlong nodded, his expression very satisfied.

"Reloaded 6th Battalion, is it heading northwest of the battlefield?" Li Yunlong asked.

"Commander, I have given the order to the 6th Heavy Battalion." Wang Dehou said, "At this time, they are already on their way to the northwest of the battlefield. ”

After a pause, Wang Dehou smiled slightly and continued: "Oh, by the way, the Ministry of Communications overheard the call between Lieutenant General Takashi Takamori, commander of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army, and Sun Liangcheng, commander of the Second Front Army of the puppet army. ”

At first, the puppet army and the devils used the radio to send contact, and the radio of the Eighth Route Army could also detect it, but it could not be deciphered.

However, Sun Liangcheng and Takashi Yingsen talked by radio, and not in secret language.

It was directly monitored by the radio of the new regiment.

"Oh?" Grand Master Li suddenly became interested, "Sun Liangcheng, this son of a bitch, is not dead yet?" What did they say? ”

Wang Dehou said: "It's not dead yet, during the call, Sun Liangcheng also said that Shimen City and Zhengding are still in the hands of the Japanese army and the puppet army, so that Ying Senxiao can rest assured that the Eighth Route Army wants to capture Shimen City and Zhengding, unless it crosses over his Sun Liangcheng's body, is it that Sun Liangcheng is deliberately helping our Eighth Route Army?" ”

"I don't think this shit is so kind." Li Yunlong snorted coldly, "Lao Tzu hates traitors the most in his life." ”

Immediately, Li Yunlong stared at the map for a while, and ordered in a fierce tone.

"Sun Liangcheng ran south with the puppet army, I guess this dog day wants to go to Yu Province to find the national army."

"Immediately telegraph to Chu Yunfei to destroy Sun Liangcheng and his puppet army at all costs!"

Now Li Yunlong can't take a move to clean up Sun Liangcheng, but he still has a younger brother Chu Yunfei.

Now Chu Yunfei's new regiment of independent brigades has more than 10,000 troops, and all American-style equipment has gained a firm foothold in northern Henan.

Cleaning up Sun Liangcheng and the remnants of his two or three thousand puppet army is the same as playing.

"Yes!"

Wang Dehou quickly drafted a telegram and asked the Ministry of Communications to send it immediately.

After giving the order, Wang Dehou came to Li Yunlong's side and said: "Regiment commander, the troops of the new regiment of our Eighth Route Army plus the brothers in Jizhong, a total of about 160,000 main forces, have formed an encirclement posture against about 40,000 devils, do you think we should immediately launch a general attack, or encircle the point to send reinforcements?" ”

Li Yunlong pondered for a moment and said: "Encirclement and reinforcement is a good tactic, but we don't have so many troops to fight devil reinforcements, and I estimate that Okamura Ningji, the old devil, will not dare to send troops to rescue before the main force of the Kwantung Army and the main force of the 11th Army arrive in North China." ”

"Don't be in a hurry to attack, first order all troops to stabilize the encirclement, and wait until tomorrow after dawn, and then send planes and heavy tank battalions to clean up the devils in the encirclement."

"Commander, what do you mean......" Wang Dehou's eyes lit up slightly, "Iron rolling three-layer sweeping tactics? ”

For this tactic, Wang Dehou was naturally impressed.

This tactic was also invented by Okamura Ninji, commander of the Japanese North China Front, and was intended to be used against the Eighth Route Army.

However, Boss Chen revealed his tactics to Li Yunlong in advance.

At the beginning, Li Yunlong used this tactic to inflict heavy losses on the 1st Division of the Japanese Army, which had just entered the northwest of Shanxi.

Killing the main force of the 1st Division in a few hours is a powerful tactic... Let Wang Dehou still remember it vividly.

"That's right, it's the Iron Rolling Three-Layer Sweep tactic."

"When dealing with little devils, you must not be merciful!"

Li Yunlong's tone was fierce, and his eyes showed murderous intent.

"Yes!"

Wang Dehou's expression was solemn, and he turned around and went to give the order.

……

Peiping.

Iron Lion Alley.

Command of the North China Front.

"Report to the General."

Communications staff officer Osamu Kitani held the telegram in his hand, walked quickly into the war hall, his expression and tone were as solemn as ever, and he bowed his head to Okamura Ninji and reported:

"The 11th Division, the 40th Division, and the 56th Division were surrounded by heavy troops of the Eighth Route Army on the Jinju battlefield, and Lieutenant General Takashi and Lieutenant General Seiichi Aoki requested tactical guidance!"

"Your Majesty the Locust is onboard!"

"The Great Japanese Locust Army is onboard!"

After reporting the contents of the telegram, Osamu Kitani bowed his head and remained silent.

On the other side, Okamura Ningji, Seizo Arisue and Yamamoto Kazuki all changed their faces.

"Nani?"

"The 11th Division, the 40th Division, and the 56th Division were surrounded by the main forces of the Eighth Route Army?"

Seizo asked with a look of disbelief on his face.

Half an hour earlier, the regimental headquarters of the 11th Division had only reported the appearance of a large number of tank units of the Eighth Route Army on the west side of the battlefield.

It's only been more than half an hour, and the main forces of the locust army of three divisions have been surrounded?

"Hey."

Osamu Kitani bowed his head suddenly.

"Yaga!" Okamura Ninji couldn't help but scold angrily, "What the hell is going on? ”

"Isn't the truth already known?"

Yamamoto Kazuki said in an indifferent tone:

"Sun Liangcheng, a traitor to the Locust Alliance, deliberately gave false information to the North China Front Headquarters and Lieutenant General Takashi Yingmori that the main force of the Eighth Route Army had already arrived on the battlefield of Jinju and formed an encirclement posture against the Locust Army."

"Sun Liangcheng... Damn it! ”

Okamura Ninji tightly grasped the hilt of the general's sword with his right hand, and his eyes showed crazy killing intent.

It can be said that Sun Liangcheng's wave of telecom fraud is not only very likely to bury the 11th, 40th and 56th devil divisions.

To add insult to injury, it also disrupted Okamura's entire battle plan.

Once the 11th, 40th and 56th Divisions were completely annihilated in the Jinju area.

Then the 6 divisions and 3 brigades in Baoding are afraid that it will be difficult to hold out until the main force of the Kwantung Army and the main force of the 11th Army arrive.

"Yamamoto-kun, pass the order, no matter Sun Liangcheng flees to the ends of the earth, this person will die!"

Seizo looked at Kazuki Yamamoto and gave an order with awe-inspiring murderous intent.

At this time, the devils didn't know that Sun Liangcheng didn't throw eight ways, but ran away with a bucket after killing the devil's headquarters.

"Hey."

Kazuki Yamamoto lowered his head and looked at Okamura Ninji:

"Your Excellency, what should I do now? Did reinforcements be sent from Baoding to rescue the 11th, 40th and 56th Divisions? ”

"There is no need for rescue." Okamura glanced at the map, "Order the 11th Division, the 40th Division, and the 56th Division to break through with all their might." ”

There are at least more than 100,000 main forces of the Eighth Route Army in the Jinzhou battlefield, and from the direction of Shanxi, there is a high probability that more main forces of the Eighth Route Army will come.

Sending one or two divisions to the rescue can only be to deliver food to the Eighth Route Army.

Sending 6 divisions and 3 brigades over may not be able to rescue these 3 divisions.

Baoding is more than 100 kilometers away from the Jinju battlefield.

Even if you want to send troops over, you can't reach it.

What's more, if he really sent two or three divisions to the Jinzhou battlefield, I am afraid that Li Yunlong, the front-line commander of the Eighth Route Army and the commander of the new first regiment, would have a crooked smile.

Although Okamura Ninji didn't want to give up these 3 divisions in his heart.

But at this point, Okamura Ninji can only take a timely stop-loss countermeasure.

"Hey."

Kazuki Yamamoto bowed his head suddenly.

Seizo Arisue quickly drafted a telegram and handed it to Haruo Kitani, who took the telegram and turned around and walked away quickly.

Looking at the back of Osamu Muya leaving, Yamamoto Kazuki's expression suddenly moved, and said: "Your Excellency, General, I suddenly thought of a way, maybe I can deal with the tanks of the Eighth Route Army. ”

"What's the solution?"

Okamura Ninji looked at Kazuki Yamamoto.

On the side, Seizo also turned his head to look at Yamamoto, his eyes showing anticipation.

The tank units of the Eighth Route Army put a lot of pressure on the North China Front.

If it can deal with the tanks of the Eighth Route Army, it can reduce the pressure on the North China Front Army by at least half.

……

Evening.

The devils scattered and broke through, except for two small forces that were lucky enough to break out of the encirclement, the rest of the devils were all repulsed.

However, these two small forces almost succeeded in breaking through, but they fell short.

Not long after the devil broke through the encirclement, he was slashed and killed on the spot by the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army who were in hot pursuit.

That night, the devils in the encirclement concentrated their forces again and launched a surprise attack on the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army, trying to break through at night.

But it's a pity that the Eighth Route Army is already good at night combat and close combat.

Now that they still have a large number of flares, it is naturally even more impossible for the devil to get benefits.

Li Yunlong did not order a general attack at night, because he did not want to let go of some devils in the chaotic battle.

After all, in this battle, Li Yunlong's goal is to annihilate them all.

On this night, the Jinju battlefield was very lively.

The devil officers of the devil command are running out of brains, and they use various tactics to launch a breakthrough.

Sound the east and attack the west, sound the west and attack the west, only shout and kill, do not attack......

With the arrival of the 4th and 5th Battalions of the new regiment, the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army had already been formed and narrowed, and there were very few weak points in the encirclement, and the firepower everywhere was very strong.

The devils tossed all night, killed and injured many troops, and failed to highlight the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army.

……

Early the next morning.

Zhao Gang led the 1st Heavy Battalion, 2nd Heavy Battalion and 3rd Heavy Battalion of the new regiment to arrive.

"Lao Li, how is the battle situation on your side?"

As soon as Zhao Gang entered the command headquarters, he asked expectantly.

"Haha, Lao Zhao, are you here?"

Seeing his old partner, Grand Master Li immediately smiled and said:

"The remnants of the 40,000 devils of the 11th Division, the 40th Division and the 56th Division are all in the encirclement, and now they are waiting to harvest the corn!"

"Great!"

Zhao Gang suddenly smiled:

"Shimen City and Zhengding have been captured by us with the hammer of our father, and all the devils defending the city have been annihilated."

Li Yunlong nodded, his expression satisfied.

All dispatched his precious father's hammer to recover Shimen City and was set in his expectations.

It's a street fight with devils, and it will take a lot of effort.

However, there are not many devils in Shimen City and Zhengding, and even if there is a street fight, it won't take long.

Li Yunlong said: "The devil's three-plate axe has been picked, now it's our turn, Lao Zhao, do you want to let your enemy engineering department first shout for the devil to surrender, and see if there are any devils who want to surrender?" ”

The new regiment not only established a literary and artistic team, but also established an enemy engineering department, which was under the direct jurisdiction of Political Commissar Zhao.

The main task of the fighters of the enemy's Ministry of Engineering was to persuade the devils to surrender and launch an educational and political offensive against the captured devils.

At present, among the troops of the Eighth Route Army, there are many Japanese who have joined the anti-war alliance and participated in the Eighth Route Army to fight devils.

"There are devils in the encirclement, I guess persuasion has no effect, the devils will surrender if they want to surrender, and they will surrender early."

Zhao Gang shook his head and said, the devils of the A Seed Division are full of bushido and loyalty to the locusts, and they will not surrender even if they are cornered.

There are devils from the 11th Division, and the devils from the 40th Division and the 56th Division will probably not surrender.

Li Yunlong nodded, looked at the staff with wide eyes, and ordered loudly: "Pass my order, the iron rolling three-layer sweeping tactics begin." ”

Between the words, the killing intent is awe-inspiring!
