The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Especially in the past two years, the economy of the occupied area under the jurisdiction of the First Army has been sluggish, the supplies of the troops are tight, and the logistics supply is difficult.

Even the field elite of the Japanese army has a much lower military supply than in previous years.

There are even cases where the troops can't even get enough to eat.

As a result, the security forces of the Japanese and Puppet Army near Zhongtiao Mountain lived a very prosperous life through private business dealings with the Eighth Route Army in Zhongtiao Mountain.

Not only did they not ask the logistics headquarters of the First Army to ask for supplies, but they even took the initiative to send some urgent supplies to them from time to time.

This came and went, even if the relevant investigation departments of the Japanese army sensed that there must be tricks, but the current battle situation is focused on the Taihang base area.

As for the southern Shanxi area, the Japanese army only wanted to stabilize the Eighth Route Army, so they simply turned a blind eye.

But the little devil probably doesn't understand.

There is also an old saying in China that the embankment of a thousand miles collapses in an ant's nest.

Once this opening is opened, there will be quantitative changes that accumulate slowly in the future, leading to qualitative changes, which will be out of control.

Relying on the troops of the Eighth Route Army to live a good life, the slowly corrupted Japanese and puppet security forces, once the days are long, they are greedy for comfort and afraid of death.

How can I still have the courage and determination to fight the Eighth Route Army to the death.

……

385 brigade base area.

The Japanese and puppet troops, originally dominated by the Japanese Third Mixed Brigade, clamored to completely penetrate the base of the 385th Brigade and destroy the main force of the Eighth Route Army of the 385th Brigade.

As a result, with the evolution of the war situation, instead of destroying the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese and puppet troops were deliberately shown to be weak by the 385th Brigade, luring the enemy to go deep, and in turn besieged in the base area.

In the end, the devil officers, led by Ishikawa, the head of the Japanese Third Mixed Brigade, even turned their faces to ask the headquarters for reinforcements.

In this battle, the 385th brigade became famous in the first battle, and played a great prestige.

With the power of only one brigade, most of the main forces of the third, ninth and No.16 mixed brigades of the Japanese army were abruptly held back, and they also set up traps in turn, leaving the three major mixed brigades of the Japanese army in a quagmire. , unable to move an inch.

At this point in the battle, the Japanese army didn't care about their face anymore, they just wanted to quickly withdraw their troops back to the stable security area, so as to reduce the losses and casualties in the battle.

So not long after.

The devil commander, Yoshio Shinozuka, issued the highest military order of the First Army, ordering all ministries to evacuate to the nearest county town in an orderly manner.

If you can't win, you can't withdraw?
The actual situation is that it is indeed not that easy for the little devil to withdraw.

In recent years, it has grown rapidly in secret, especially after the rise of a team first, which has driven the economic and military development of the surrounding Eighth Route Army combat regiments.

It brought quite exaggerated changes to the Eighth Route Army troops.

One of the qualitative changes caused by quantitative changes is the equipment in the hands of the Eighth Route Army troops.

If the Eighth Route Army used to be a three-gun, eight-way army, even the main force could not carry out a sustained head-on confrontation at all.

Today's Eighth Route Army troops, especially the Eighth Route Army's 129th Division and 386th Brigade and 385th Brigade in the Taihang base area, are the main combat troops of the Eighth Route Army.

In terms of overall equipment, although it is still not as good as the Japanese army, it is completely close to the level of the national army.

As for individual combat regiments, such as the first regiment, the new first regiment, and the new second regiment, in terms of the main elite firepower configuration, they even surpassed the Japanese army with the same establishment.

... 385 Brigade Headquarters.

Sensing the signs of the retreat of the Japanese army, Brigadier Chen gave the order without hesitation:
"Fight, the opportunity to beat the dog in the water has come, the little devil wants to run, how can it be so easy, in our base area, since this devil has come, if he doesn't die, he will have to peel off his skin!"

"Pass out the news immediately, the devil is about to run, follow the little devil's evacuation route layer by layer to block, our main force eats meat, we must let the local troops also drink some soup!"

Therefore, the entire process of the retreat of the Japanese and puppet troops was more like a feast where the main force of the Eighth Route Army and local troops participated in the event and ate meat and soup together.

Among them, the main combat force undertakes the main combat task of frontal pursuit.

Try to gradually divide and disperse the fleeing Japanese army.

And once the little devil's team is dispersed, even the elite, in the case of limited troops.

Even the local troops of the Eighth Route Army can go up and take a few bites.

Especially for teams like the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment, the surrounding local army units often eat soup and meat with the main force, and their equipment level has also improved a lot, even compared to the main combat troops of the Eighth Route Army in previous years. How many.

The little devil who fought all the way back naturally complained.

An orderly retreat, even gradually showing a trend of defeat.

Originally, if it was only the Eighth Route Army of the 385th Brigade and the nearby local troops were entangled, with the strength of the three major Japanese mixed brigades, it would be impossible to be calm under the unified command of the old devil Ishikawa.

At the very least, they can withdraw from the big mud ball in the base of the 385th brigade, and save most of their strength, so that they won't lose too badly.

Who knew that the troops stationed in Mongolia going south for reinforcements were really useless.

A full infantry regiment, plus two cavalry regiments, couldn't deal with the 386th Brigade's Iron Triangle troops.

Instead, the reinforcements of the Audio-Technica detoured to the rear of the 385th brigade base, and attacked the third, ninth, and No.16 mixed brigades from the back.

As a result, the Eighth Route Army troops of the [-]th Brigade and the reinforcement troops of the Audio-Technica Group attacked from both sides, which completely stunned the Japanese and puppet troops.

After several battles, the old devil Ishi Chuan looked around, only to realize that only the main force of his third mixed brigade was following him.

The ninth is the No.16 mixed brigade, which was divided into other areas by the Eighth Route Army.

At this point in the battle, Ishikawa couldn't care less.

A poor monk will not die a poor way.

He led the main force of his brigade and tried to break through and evacuate all the way.

In addition, he also heard about the battle in the direction of Baode County. The Suzuki Regiment of the Mongolian Army was almost wiped out in the Xiaonan Village area by the Eighth Route Army in northern Shanxi.

As for the Xiye United, although Baode was lost under the massive attack of the Eighth Route Army, I heard that the main force basically withdrew.

Now is the time to die. When I was in the Imperial Army University, the old devil Ishikawa and Nishino were very good brothers and sisters.

Right now, the younger brother has completely evacuated from the siege of the Eighth Route Army. This is probably based on some experience.

Ishikawa immediately displayed the spirit of not being ashamed to ask questions.

Contact the headquarters of the Nishino Regiment and ask Mr. Nishino for his evacuation experience.

after the communication ends.

In the afternoon of the same day, Ishikawa contacted the brigade headquarters of the No. 16 and No. [-] mixed brigades respectively, and told them one by one the scriptures he had obtained on how to evacuate.

then……

The little devils of the three Japanese army brigades who were evacuating in a hurry moved quickly.

In order to escape, the Japanese army divided the wounded and heavy soldiers of the three brigades into nearly a hundred groups, and exchanged the broken light and heavy machine guns with the parts of the light and heavy machine guns that could not be taken away, so that these machine guns were basically completely reimbursed.

Then buried in the pits on the battlefield and the side of the road, especially the firing pin and hammer, mixed with the rifle and thrown in another place.

All the fuzes of the shells were dismantled, taken away, and thrown far away on the side of the road mixed with eggshells. Various types of shells were also mixed together and buried in different places.

The cannons that could not be taken away were half-buried with gun mantlets on the road to block the road, and the parts were dismantled and buried elsewhere.

All kinds of bullets matched with eggshells are buried everywhere.

The mines were buried while retreating, but the fuses were also removed, and they were randomly thrown into roadside pits.

The devils took advantage of the evening to make a sudden move, and the Duanhou team was sent out in all directions. When they saw the eight roads coming, they fired a few shots first, and then shouted with a loudspeaker that they wanted to see the person in charge and surrender.

Then pretended to say that there was an important intelligence report, and after a while, he took Eight Routes to dig treasures, all kinds of messy things.

Among the troops of the 385th Brigade, the most violent, fiercest, and fastest pursuit was undoubtedly the troops of Commander Wang.

After all, this is a fierce man known as Wang Crazy.

He is not easy to deal with, he is easy to fool, the little devil is a little slower to escape, he can be caught with the troops, and he will slap him a few times.

At least the corpse of little devil No. [-] can stop it.

As a result, Lao Wang chased after him, and bumped into the delaying troops left behind by those devils on purpose.

He had just greeted the soldiers, took out his things, and was about to take down these little devils in one fell swoop, but who knew that the devils on the other side raised a white flag without making a sound.

One by one obediently threw all their weapons and ammunition on the ground, shouting to surrender.

Then another puppet army said that there was an important intelligence report, saying that it was buried along the way, and that there were munitions and equipment that the Japanese army had no time to take away, saying that there were all kinds of treasures.

As soon as Lao Wang heard that there were still heavy weapons, and after handing over the weapons of the surrendered Japanese and puppet troops, he said he would go and have a look.

The devils said that there was a minefield. The soldiers cleared the mines carefully, but found that they were all unfused mines. They finally dug the supply pit. At first glance, they were full of bullets, and there were also piles of eggshells. Various bullets were mixed together.

Look again, all the heavy machine guns and small-caliber rapid-fire guns found are unusable.

After co-authoring the ghosts I met overnight, the group is full of pitfalls! ! !

The old Wang was so angry that he wanted to get angry, this little son of a bitch, he is going to hell, and he doesn't know who he learned from these bastards.

But the devils and puppet soldiers who surrendered were honest, expressing their need for humanitarian assistance, food and medical treatment.

Looking at the ghosts and wounded soldiers one by one, some of them saw more air coming in and less air coming out, maybe they would die soon.

Naturally, the Eighth Route Army's tradition of preferential treatment of prisoners cannot be lost.

Moreover, these devils and puppet troops also honestly chose to surrender and cooperate.

For a while, Captain Wang was also full of anger, but he had nowhere to vent it.

Knowing that this is a rogue escape method by the little devil, but there is nothing to do, so he has to arrange troops to take over the wounded soldiers who surrendered, and bring them back to the base area for treatment.

That's not the end of it.

Shi Chuan and the old devils from the other two brigades also asked officers at all levels to take out all their rank badges and exchange them with some wounded soldiers.

Every time they encountered a blockade, they were asked to leave a group behind. When they met the Eight Route Army, the wounded soldiers who had changed their ranks said what kind of officers they were, and they wanted fair treatment, and they wanted to see the army leaders before surrendering.

In one night, Captain Wang led the siege troops to pursue and caught a bunch of big fish, including seven or eight of them in Da Zuo alone.

This made Lao Wang very happy, thinking to himself, this is probably not much worse than Lao Li's field observation group where he defeated the devils.

As a result, in the interrogation the next day, I was very happy, and my feelings were all the ideas of the devil officer, and these were just low-level soldiers.

This made Pharaoh so angry that he was furious.

Commander Wang and the others have never seen such a scene before, it's weapons, and they're surrendering troops.

That's it, in the end, the little devil actually used some wounded soldiers with fake military ranks and blown up guns, ammunition and other junk.

Dazed to hold back the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army troops, the old devil Shi Chuan and others successfully escaped with a considerable part of the main force.

Later in the military summary meeting after the war.

The commander-in-chief couldn't stop laughing when he heard about this, and scolded Captain Wang for being a trash king who only picks up trash.

Head Wang, known as a lunatic, said helplessly:

"This old devil, Shi Chuan, is really a fucking expert in escaping. If this old boy really wants to escape, he will use all kinds of tricks, and he is more slippery than a loach. It's really hard to catch him!"

It has to be said that after the old devil Ishikawa learned from Nishino, he not only mastered the essence of escape, but also surpassed it by a higher level, which is really quite remarkable.

……

But Shi Chuan, an old devil, ran fast, and the 11th regiment and the two cavalry regiments stationed in the south of the Mongolian Army did not have this ability.

Especially after the three Japanese brigades that contained the 385th Brigade and the Imperial Association Army that assisted in the battle withdrew quickly.

The [-]th Brigade and the soldiers of the Iron Triangle, seeing a big fish slipping away, were already full of anger, so they naturally turned their troops around and poured all the fire on the heads of the Mongolian troops.

This time it was no longer a two-sided attack, and the troops were directly and quickly detoured from all directions, forming a big river encirclement.

Even the devil's two cavalry regiments had to completely break all the horse's legs.

Eat it in one go!

Naturally, the First Army couldn't just sit and watch the elite troops stationed in Mongolia going south for reinforcements, so they just fell here, and quickly dispatched flying troops to assist the 21st Regiment of the Mongolian Army to evacuate.

The little devil once again demonstrated the biggest advantage in this battle against the Eighth Route Army-the superiority of air firepower.

It's just that the devil's flying troops didn't run rampant for too long.

It is day and night.

Taking advantage of the constantly changing situation on the battlefield, some flaws finally appeared in the defense of the airport temporarily built by the devils in Licheng.

Duan Peng, the commando captain who has been disappearing on the battlefield of this Sino-Japanese confrontation, and the other half of the commando team members, what do you think they did?
After night fell, the team members infiltrated the devil's airport smoothly like ghosts, and then used secretly placed time bombs to park all kinds of advanced fighter jets and bombers at the airport, including temporary fuel depots and ammunition depots. It was fried clean.

The next day.

Upon hearing the news that Licheng's temporary airport had been destroyed, Shinozuka Yoshio sat down on his seat, dazzled for a long time, unable to regain consciousness.

This time, he had planned for a long time to target the main force of the Eighth Route Army and the Huangyadong Armory of the Eighth Route Army. So far, there was no possibility of reversal, and it ended in a disastrous defeat.

He had already prepared in his heart how he would be punished after this battle was over.

As for the position of the supreme commander of the First Army stationed in Shanxi, it is time to give it to a latecomer who is more capable than him and better able to deal with these Eighth Route Army.

But is there really such a latecomer?

hope so……

Shinozuka Yoshio could only comfort himself secretly.
