Heroes of the War of Resistance

"Yes, platoon leader!"

Because it was an intermittent attack, the combat platoon did not dig fortifications at all.After choosing the corresponding hiding spot, he quietly waited for the little devil who came from the highway.When the little devil cavalry entered the ambush circle, the machine rifles of the combat platoon opened fire at the same time.

"Enemy attack! Get off your horse and fight back!"

The little devil cavalry squad that was caught off guard did not expect to be ambushed here.From the point of view of the little devil, the Chinese army that attacked Shucheng last night should retreat desperately towards Huoshan.

Under normal circumstances, it is only possible for them to contact the blocking forces when they reach the border with Huoshan.Unexpectedly, they were ambushed not long after they pursued.As soon as the gunshot rang out, the little devils following behind also ran for reinforcements.

What the little devil didn't expect was that the combat platoon of the ambush cavalry squad turned around and withdrew immediately after a wave.When the little devil infantry arrived, the combat platoon had already run out of their shooting range, and they had no chance to fight back.

"Damn it! This is a small harassing force from the China Army! It seems that the commander of the division is right. The China Army that attacked us last night should not have gone too far. Order the troops to continue to speed up the pursuit!"

Realizing that these harassing troops were likely to delay the main force, the captain of the Japanese army who led the team quickly issued an order to speed up the pursuit.The cavalry squad that originally went out for reconnaissance has basically been disabled.

It's a pity that just as the Japanese army speeded up and was about to catch up with the task force that might be speeding up and fleeing.After walking for less than 10 minutes, they were ambushed by a second wave.The infantry squad responsible for opening the way was crippled again under a wave of attacks!

Looking at the Japanese reconnaissance planes that appeared overhead from time to time, and the prisoners of war camp officers and soldiers staying at the road digging fortifications, I still felt a little worried.But for Hu Biao, there is no need to worry too much if he is prepared.

An air defense guard post was arranged, and once a little devil fighter plane appeared in the distant sky, the guard post would notify in advance.When the fighter planes flew above the positions where the prisoners of war were, the prisoners who were digging fortifications below could not be seen at all.

In terms of air defense camouflage, Hu Biao and the officers and soldiers of the task force under his command still have a lot of experience.In fact, if the little devils on the high-altitude plane want to find the troops lurking on the ground, they can only find them with the naked eye.

And at the moment where the trenches are being dug, there are fishing net camouflage clothes provided by the soldiers of the task force.After spreading it out, just lie down under the fishing net camouflage clothes and don't move. The little devil on the high-altitude plane has no idea that there are people below.

If you run around in fright, you will be more likely to be spotted by the little devil's pilot.After Hu Biao's talk and reassurance, the prisoners who were in charge of excavating the fortifications gradually realized that the plane was overhead, which seemed less scary.

The Japanese army in Shucheng, who was speeding up to try to stop them, encountered repeated highway raids, and the Japanese infantry captain who led the team said with a headache: "Baga! What's going on here? What are the vanguard troops doing for food? "

"Your Excellency, Captain, the detachment army is too cunning to tangle with us at all. After launching a sneak attack, they immediately retreat. When we organize a counterattack, they have already run away. Our vanguard has suffered heavy losses!"

Looking at the wounded and corpses that appeared after several raids, the Japanese infantry brigade who was ordered to come here still felt somewhat uncertain.Just thinking of the attackers, they probably didn't go too far, and they were reluctant to give up the pursuit.

Qin Tianyou, who commanded the troops to harass, listened to the report of the combat platoon leader under his command, and said a little worriedly: "Will the little devils be beaten away if this fight continues? I really want them to run back to the city. There's no chance for annihilation!"

Lei Xiong, who was standing aside, thought for a while and said: "Probably not! The little devils will suddenly run out of the city, probably because they have received orders from their superiors. They should not dare to withdraw without permission from their superiors."

"But what's the use of chasing with this little force? The commander of the little devil should be able to think of this, right?"

Facing Qin Tianyou's confusion, Lei Xiong smiled wryly and said, "Old Qin, don't forget, this is a Japanese infantry brigade. In a field battle, even if we send an elite infantry regiment, it may not be their opponent.

Looking at the little devil's erection, he should have guessed that we want to retreat to Huoshan.In order to delay our time as much as possible, they used an infantry brigade to pursue us, which is already very respectful of us.Don't forget, our teams are different! "

In Lei Xiong's view, the reason why the Japanese army dared to send an infantry brigade to follow and pursue them was more due to their confidence in their own strength.Since the Anti-Japanese War, the combat effectiveness of an infantry brigade of the little devil is much higher than that of a regiment of the anti-Japanese army.

Even in many cases, facing the attack of an infantry brigade of the Japanese army, the anti-Japanese troops often needed to send a brigade of troops to stop it.Switching to other combat units, they would definitely be very worried when they learned of this situation.

But in the eyes of the commander of the task force, he felt that these little devils were too bold.After all, the task force is different from many resistance troops at the moment.The training standards are different, and the combat standards are even more different.

Letting Lei Xiong say this, Qin Tianyou thought for a while and said with a smile: "It really makes sense! Guess, the little devil should have found out something, and knew that we have a car to travel. So, I plan to follow and chase us, and try to hold us back! "

"Only this kind of explanation can make sense! But in this way, it is estimated that a large number of little devils will come to reinforce in the future!"

"Afraid of a ball! If the little devils are really chasing after them, let's have fun with them in Shucheng. I think the quality of the newly recruited prisoner-of-war camp is not bad. With the troops in Huoshan, the little devils may not be able to Get a bargain!"

From Qin Tianyou's point of view, the task force entered Anhui Province for the purpose of fighting the little devils.Now that the little devil is taking the initiative to deliver it to their door, they also save a lot of time looking for it.After killing these little devils, there are probably not many little devils left in Shucheng.

Commanding thousands of prisoners of war, it took nearly two hours to finally dig out a trench that could be hidden, and Hu Biao ordered to stop digging the trench.The prisoner-of-war camp was divided into companies and began to be stationed in temporarily dug trenches.

Then the soldiers of the task force further camouflaged the newly dug trenches.At the same time, they sent someone to Qin Tianyou and the others to tell them not to continue to harass them, but to open the way for the little devil to come over.

The No.20 Sixth Army Guard Regiment led by Xu Sandao is still on its way.When the little devil arrives, it is estimated that the guard group has almost arrived.It's just that Hu Biao didn't even think about this battle and asked Xu Yuanquan's guards to help.

"Send a report to the temporary camp and ask them to send a reconnaissance team to keep a close eye on the movements of the Japanese troops in the direction of Luzhou City. Soldiers are drawn from the squadron to form a reconnaissance team, and they carry radio stations to disperse and closely monitor the Japanese troops coming from the direction of Lu'an."

"Yes, Captain!"

Although the Japanese army suddenly sent troops to follow and pursue, it somewhat disrupted Hu Biao's scheduled itinerary and combat deployment.But Hu Biao felt that at this moment the Japanese army should only be skeptical, and did not know the existence of the task force for the time being.

Even the guerrillas of the New Fourth Army that cooperated with the task force did not know the true strength of the task force.This also means that even if the Japanese army knew of the existence of the task force, they would suspect that it was an elite unit of the national army.

If the little devil then dispatches heavy troops to Shucheng, or directly launches an attack on Huoshan's defenders, then Shucheng might be a good place.First wipe out the remaining enemies in Shucheng, and then slowly deal with the little devil.

Before that, Hu Biao wanted to take the initiative on the battlefield, and it would also take time for the little devils to send troops over.Now that the reconnaissance team is sent out, it is also possible to know the movement of the Japanese army in time.

Lin Jian, the head of the security team who was leading his troops, didn't dare to go too fast when he saw the fighter planes appearing from above his head from time to time.Every time they heard the whistle, Lin Jian's subordinates would find a place to lie down and wait for the fighter plane to fly overhead.

Although this method of marching was slow, it was better than not having to worry about being strafed by little devil fighter planes.For the anti-Japanese officers and soldiers who had experienced actual combat at this time, they were more afraid of this kind of fighter plane that carried out strikes in the air than the cannons of the little devils.

Fortunately, Xu Sandao had already received the telegram from Hu Biao, so he didn't need the guards to hurry.Even if you come later, it doesn't really matter.In view of this situation, Xu Sandao still focused on ensuring the safety of the march and led the guard group into Huoshan territory.

Not long after the guard group entered Huoshan territory, the Japanese infantry brigade, which had been harassed many times, finally found out that there had been no harassing for a while.But the more so, the little devils on the march felt that something was wrong.

Faced with the confusion expressed by the infantry captain, the staff officer beside him quickly said: "Your Excellency, captain! We have come all the way here, and there are reconnaissance planes in the air for reconnaissance. We have already sent power to the division before, and the reconnaissance planes are not on the road. Nothing was found.

Judging from the current situation, the Chinese army that attacked the county last night should be resting in a certain valley ahead.They kept harassing, presumably to buy time to retreat.Because of the opportunity to fight, they dare not take the road at all.

The most likely scenario is that they will ambush us somewhere and try to hold out until dark.In that case, our fighter planes would not be able to take off.There is also a possibility that they should be waiting for reinforcements! "

"Reinforcements? The main force of the Chinese army hiding in Huoshan?"

"Yes! If we continue to march forward, we should enter the territory of Huoshan soon. The main force of the Chinese army that attacked the county is likely to be hidden somewhere on the road. I just don't know if they have the courage to fight us!"

"According to the information provided by the division, these fleeing Chinese troops are likely to be the elite of China, and they also have a certain number of artillery units. If they really decide to fight us, it will be a tough battle!"

Thinking of the analysis information sent by the division, the infantry captain still seemed a little worried.Even in the face of the anti-Japanese troops, the Japanese army is very confident.But this infantry brigade, they didn't carry any artillery at all.

When encountering an anti-Japanese army with artillery, whether they can contain it is really a question worth thinking about!

"Your Excellency, Captain, in the current situation, I'm afraid we don't have much choice. We can only contain these Chinese troops and wait for the reinforcements sent by the division. If we really let them flee into Huoshan, if we want to encircle and suppress them at that time, I'm afraid they will Confused!"

"Baga! If we had known this, we should have taken advantage of the situation and entered Huoshan to destroy the Chinese army hiding there!"

The infantry captain, who knew there was danger but still had to move forward, still felt a little worried.Fortunately, the division has already sent a telegram, and the cavalry regiment to which the division belongs has assembled and is on standby, and is on its way to Shucheng.

What their brigade needs to do right now is to confirm whether the main force of the Chinese army attacking Shucheng is planning to flee to Huoshan as the division speculated.If the speculation is confirmed, then the division will send additional troops later.

Qin Tianyou, who had retreated to the vicinity of the ambush position, watched the little devil infantry brigade following along the highway, and also reported the harassment to Hu Biao.Knowing that the little devil slowed down, Hu Biao didn't think there was any problem.

He smiled and said: "As long as they don't run away, then spend time with them! After a while, it will be dark!"

The task force has always chosen to fight at night, more because of the air support to prevent the little devils.Even if Hu Biao has a certain number of anti-aircraft weapons in his hands, it is still impossible to ensure that the troops will not suffer large-scale casualties during air strikes.

Only by fighting at night can the maximum combat power of the task force be brought into play and the little devil's support force weakened.Seeing that the sun is about to set, Hu Biao also knows that those reconnaissance planes circling in the sky are probably preparing to return to the airport!
