The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 1052 Dare to fight?

As for the pursuit.

One is that he can't catch up, and the other is that since he entered Mengxi's territory, Heimu has gradually realized how difficult his opponent is.

Before the reinforcements arrived, Heimu had specifically studied the battle between the Nanzhi chariot group and the armored force of the Eighth Route Army.

In this regard, he is very sure that if he dares to divide his troops to pursue the fleeing armored troops of the Eighth Route Army, he will probably fall into the follow-up trap of the Eighth Route Army.

Without the follow-up of the mobile heavy artillery unit, Kuroki did not dare to pursue blindly.

The key is that the mobility of the heavy artillery unit is poor, and I am afraid that it cannot keep up with the combat of armored vehicles.

In this way, history continued to repeat itself. Heimu gave a special order that no pursuit was allowed. Then the devils were like calves licking their own wounds, with their heads drooping. A smoky camp.

"General!"

"Don't say anything, continue to repair, count the losses, let the soldiers seize the time to replenish food, if there is no condition to light a fire to cook, use some canned food and compressed biscuits!"

After giving the order, Heimu turned his head and looked at the lunch box on the small wooden table that he was about to eat, but at this time, due to the movement caused by the shelling of the Eighth Route Army, it completely fell to the ground, and the food inside also flowed out one place.

Fortunately, the devil's chief of staff was considerate, and he sent another food soon.

Heimu let out a long sigh of relief, and suppressed the anger in his heart to pick up the lunch box again to prepare to eat, but just as he picked up the chopsticks, there was another sudden bombardment.

——The soldiers of the Second Battalion of the Armored Corps arranged by Kong Jie once again carried out a long-range artillery raid on the devil's camp.

Hearing the movement, Kuroki's face was gloomy.

These damned Eighth Route Army came again, it was too deceitful, he wished to tear these bastards to pieces.

Fortunately, with the previous first round of raids, the Japanese army specially strengthened their defenses, and extended the outside fortifications to a few hundred meters.

The camp where the Japanese army was temporarily stationed was only hit by the larger-caliber artillery of the Eighth Route Army from a longer distance.

Generally speaking, it is not harmful, but extremely insulting.

"Reporting sir, the Eighth Route Army's armored unit that attacked our camp seems to be somewhat similar to the previous Eighth Route Army's attacking unit. They have a lot of combat vehicles, more than 50 vehicles, but they use artillery from a distance. Our army launched a sneak attack."

Heimu gritted his teeth in hatred, and he personally rushed to the frontier to observe, holding a high-power telescope, and scouted the past from a distance.

On this vast plain terrain, his vision soon fell on the armored troops of the Eighth Route Army on the horizon farther away.

Feeling the roar of artillery fire on the opposite side, Hei Mu also looked sideways a little. The artillery fire of these Eighth Route Army armored troops is not ordinary.

It's just that so far, Hei Mu still doesn't understand what the Eighth Route Army's move means.

First, a small group of armored troops was used to harass the camp, and then a larger armored group suspected to be the main force of the Eighth Route Army was used to sneak attack the camp.

"What kind of conspiracy is hidden behind Eight Roads?"

The tragedy that the Nanzhi chariot group was almost wiped out was in sight, and Heimu couldn't help being careless. This sudden deep thought made Heimu quickly calm down from his anger.

The entire Blackwood Chariot Brigade also temporarily stayed in the camp where it was stationed, and did not blindly pursue the sneak attacking Eighth Route Army armored troops.

Unnamed slope area.

Inside the concealed temporary frontline command post.

The message came back quickly.

"Reporting to the detachment leader, the second armored battalion has sent back news that the second raid on the Japanese army has been completed. The devils still chose to stay in the camp and did not launch a forceful counterattack against our army."

Kong Jie nodded, turned his head to look at the generals, and said with emotion: "Sure enough, as I expected, the old devil who led the Kwantung Army chariot unit this time is a very calm guy.

Since this little devil came into our blocking vision, we have attacked seven or eight times back and forth.

If this had been according to Nan Zhi's temperament, he would have launched a counterattack long ago.

This new devil commander has been able to stay stable until now, it seems that there is indeed a trick! "

The old man in the dark is steady and steady, and he will never act rashly before he has investigated the specific situation of the Eighth Route Army's armored troops. This is indeed a safe way.

The devil's forces are not scattered, and there are mobile heavy artillery units that follow up at any time.

Although Kong Jie and Li Yunlong could carry out long-range bombardment from time to time, or local small-scale raids, it was irrelevant to the entire Blackwood Chariot Brigade.

It is unrealistic to completely drag down the devils in this way.

If time continues, this armored force of the Eighth Route Army will only be completely exposed to the Japanese army's vision.

There is not much time left for Kong Jie and Li Yunlong in this battle.

In the end, Li Yunlong thought about it and thought of a way.

After hearing Li Yunlong's idea, all the generals frowned and laughed together.

soon.

Heimu, the old devil who was still stationed in the temporary camp to rest, received an unexpected gift.

This gift was specially sent by a team of traitors.

A group of traitors were searched by the guards and brought before Heimu.

The leader of the traitor revealed his identity to Heimu. He was the company commander of the Imperial Association Army of the Nanzhi Chariot Troop. He was accidentally captured because of injuries.

A team of flesh and blood who had been searched and without any weapons did not pose any threat to the Blackwood Chariot Brigade. Blackwood also wanted to learn more about the opponent.

He asked: "How much do you know about the Eighth Route Army troops on the opposite side?"

The traitor leader replied: "Taijun, that is the armored unit of the Eighth Route Army. They are very powerful. Nanzhi Taijun was defeated by them."

"Baga, what I want is information on the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side, not to listen to your nonsense!" Heimu said angrily.

"Hi!" The traitor leader was taken aback, and quickly replied: "Taijun, there are two commanders of the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side. One is Kong Jie and the other is Li Yunlong."

"Kong Jie, Li Yunlong..."

Major General Heimu was pondering, and the devil's chief of staff reminded: "General, we have seen these two names in the list of the enemy's must-kill generals issued by the headquarters.

This Kong Jie and Li Yunlong seem to be generals of the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang area.

I heard that Commander Okamura hated these two people, especially this one named Kong Jie.

The North China Front Army even offered a high reward of 20 oceans for Kong Jie's head.

I didn't expect them to come here! "

Kuroki nodded, he didn't expect his opponent to have such a background, and the amount of 20 also surprised him. Even a mid-to-high-level Japanese general like him is actually very clean financially.

Not to mention if it is really possible to defeat this armored force of the Eighth Route Army, or even capture Kong Jie and Li Yunlong alive and present them to the Commander-in-Chief...

Thinking about it, Hei Mu suddenly felt a little floating.

"General, I heard that these two are notoriously difficult to deal with. Even the First Army has been lost to them many times. I'm afraid we have met our opponents this time!"

The words of the devil's chief of staff brought Kuroki back to reality.

Heimu looked at the traitor leader and asked, "Then why did Kong Jie and Li Yunlong let you back?"

The traitor leader turned his head and took a floral skirt from a traitor behind him, and said to Heimu: "Taijun, Balu deliberately let us come back to give you a message.

It is Li Yunlong, commander of the Eighth Route Army, who asked us to bring you a message. "

"Baga, tell me!" Heimu shouted in a deep voice, he really wanted to hear what Li Yunlong was going to say to him.

The traitor leader responded, imitating Li Yunlong's tone, picked up the manuscript that Li Yunlong specially wrote for him, and read it vividly: "Hey, little devil, I am Li Yunlong, the king of heaven who can kill you.

Your seniors of the Kwantung Army were beaten all over the floor by Lao Tzu in Shanxi.

In my opinion, the little devils in Shanxi are not worth mentioning at all, and their combat effectiveness may not even be considered second-rate.

I thought that your Kwantung Army was supposed to be the elite of the Japanese army, the flower of the imperial army, and should have good combat effectiveness, but I didn't expect it to be such a piece of rubbish, which is disappointing.

This time I heard that your Kwantung Army sent over an elite chariot. I hope you won't disappoint Lao Li again.

According to the direction of your march, there is a large plain 20 miles ahead, where the scenery is good and the terrain is open, suitable for a decisive battle between the two armies.

I don't play any tricks with you either.

If you are still bloody soldiers, let's have a life-and-death battle in that area and kill him to the fullest!

Oh, by the way, I can understand if you are really afraid of death, and we don't force it. I, Li Yunlong, have a principle that I never hit women.

Commander Guizi on the opposite side, if you are willing to wear the floral dress we gave you and pretend to be a woman, I can consider sparing your lives and making way for you!

In addition, I would like to remind you that there is not much time left for you. If you don't have the courage to fight decisively, I, Li Yunlong, don't bother to fight against cowards like you.

I will lead the troops to evacuate immediately, after this time I will not play with you anymore! "

The sound stopped abruptly, and the old devil Heimu's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip.

"General, how dare the Eighth Route Army take the initiative to invite our army to a decisive battle! What are they planning?"

Heimu didn't answer immediately, but looked at the traitor leader: "Have you found any other information? Does Eight Road have any traps in that area?"

The traitors shook their heads in unison, they really don't know about this situation.

Heimu waved his hand impatiently, and after driving the traitors away, he immediately unfolded the military map of the area, and then found the plain area on the detailed map.

"It's a plain terrain!" The devil's chief of staff said.

"This is a detailed map specially drawn by the Mongolian army who has been investigating here for many years. The terrain must not be wrong."

"That's strange, such a plain terrain is indeed an open terrain, especially suitable for developing armor advantages, mobility advantages, and artillery advantages.

Why did the Eight Route Army choose to start a decisive battle with our army in this area?
Could it be that they really have the confidence to compete with our army in a head-on confrontation? "

Kuroki suddenly hesitated.

But when I thought that I led the elite chariots to trek over a long distance according to the order of the headquarters, the purpose of this trip was to fight these Eighth Route Army decisively and wipe them out in one fell swoop!

Now that the weather is getting hotter, if you don't seize the time to wipe out these Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop, you don't know how much you will suffer.

If Kong Jie and Li Yunlong were really like what they said in the message they brought, they would immediately choose to evacuate if there was no decisive battle.

The pursuit along the way, eating a lot of ashes, has already made the old devil Heimu realize how powerful this Eighth Route Army armored unit is.

Once the eight-way team is determined to escape, Heimu doesn't have the confidence to stop the opponent.

Your Excellency Commander's mission cannot be completed.

This time he led the armored force to mobilize the crowd, and all previous efforts will also be wasted.

Looking up again, I saw the floral skirt that was left in a corner.

It seemed to be full of sarcasm.

The anger in his heart was ignited again, Heimu didn't hesitate any more, but still maintained a cautious temperament, he sent several scouting troops in advance to scout the area mentioned by Kong Jie and Li Yunlong.

Not long after, Kuroki received a message from the scouting force:

The area mentioned by the Eighth Route Army is indeed a plain terrain, and it is full of green grass at a glance. It can be detected from a distance, and there is indeed an armored unit of the Eighth Route Army staying there.

The entire meadow is open and flat on all sides, with only a gentle slope rising to the west.

Heimu analyzed suspiciously: "With such a terrain, the Eighth Route Army can't take advantage of it. What are they trying to do?"

The devil's chief of staff tried to say: "The Chinese art of war pays attention to waiting for work at leisure. Our army traveled long distances and waited for work at leisure for eight routes. Maybe this is the plan."

boom -

The two old devils were analyzing the situation when the sound of shelling came again, and the soldiers of the [-]rd Battalion of the Eighth Route Army Armored Corps launched another sneak attack.

When Heimu investigated the situation with a dark face, the communications soldiers came to report:

"Report sir, the Eighth Route Army's sneak attack is similar to the previous two times. At this moment, the Eighth Route Army's armored unit that sneaked up on our army is retreating eastward!"

"General, that's the area where Kong Jie and Li Yunlong agreed to fight our army!" the devil's chief of staff reminded.

"asshole!"

Heimu cursed angrily twice, and finally made up his mind that he must wipe out this armored force of the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop in the next decisive battle.

However, the old devil was still cautious and was not dazzled by anger.

"Carefully investigate the route of the evacuated Eighth Route Army armored units to ensure that our army will not fall into the Eighth Route Army's minefield trap during its advance."

Heimu has already heard the news that the Eighth Route Army seems to have a lot of newly developed powerful anti-tank landmines, and that idiot Nanzhi suffered a big loss from the Eighth Route Army because of this.

He didn't want to make the same mistake again.

Then, during the on-site reconnaissance of the terrain, Heimu noticed that there was a raised soil slope to the west of the plain terrain chosen by the Eighth Route Army.

Realizing that compared to the flat sides of that area, this earth slope may be well utilized, and it may be possible to place heavy artillery positions on that earth slope area.

Let the naturally raised slopes serve as excellent artillery shelters.

The front-line reconnaissance troops also received news that the armored troops evacuated by the Eighth Route Army drove all the way through that slope, which is enough to prove that there were no landmine traps set by the Eighth Route Army along the way.

That being the case...

"Yaoxi, these damned bastards, if you want to fight decisively, then come! I will definitely tear them to pieces!"
