"I don't want reinforcements." Li Xianmin said fiercely: "This time, I will let your second company alone take on the heavy task of blocking the enemy and covering the people's retreat. I don't believe it. I will report for you all day long. I'm going to make you the chief of staff of our regiment. If you don't even have this battle, how would you let me speak for you? Tell yourself, how can I speak for you?"
"I promise to complete the task." When Wang Ergui heard about becoming the chief of staff, he immediately increased his spirit, and saluted Li Xianmin again, saying: "Political commissar, don't worry, even if there is only one person left in the fight, I will definitely Complete the task of blocking the enemy." After that, Wang Ergui turned and ran away.
Li Xianmin hurriedly organized the people to move to other places, trying to get around Shentou Ridge. At this time, the brigade led by Chen Yixian arrived. Chen Yixian rode a horse to find Li Xianmin first. After asking about the situation here, he said: "Political commissar, is there any news from the military division?"
"Commander Lu has called back." Li Xianmin said, "Commander Gao has been dispatched. I don't know where I am now."
"Political commissar." Chen Yi first took a telescope and looked in the direction of Shentouling and then said: "You can direct the villagers to move to the Taihang Mountains. I guess that Guizi's brigade can't find us in Wangcun Town. Maybe you will think about it. On the offensive side. There may be a melee here.” As soon as he said this, a soldier next to him immediately said, “Leader and political commissar, look at it...” Li Xianmin and Chen Yixian both turned around to look, and saw Wang Wang. Smoke billowing in the direction of villages and towns and Zhangjiazhai
"It seems that the enemy has already reached our base area." Li Xianmin said: "Leader, I will direct the villagers to transfer immediately. As for how to fight here, I don't care. The second company over there is preparing to block Shentouling. Devil, you say hello!"
"Good, good!" Chen Yixian stepped forward and shook hands with Li Xianmin hurriedly, and then Li Xianmin hurriedly left. Chen Yixian looked at the telescope in the direction of Zhangjiazhai, then turned to the correspondent and said, "Let all three company commanders come over for the meeting."
"Three company commanders?" The correspondent was a little startled: "Isn't there just two company commanders?"
"Ah? Yes, yes, let the two high company commanders come to me for a meeting immediately, and let Instructor Wang rest there with the soldiers."
Soon, Gao Dashan and Gao Shusheng hurried over. Chen Yixian waved his hands from the two of them and said, "Two, I have one way I can't tell right now. I want to ask you two to give me an idea." As soon as he said this, gunshots rang out in the distance. Gao Dashan and Gao Shusheng hurried to scan the place where the binoculars fired. Chen Yixian immediately said, "What are you looking at! That Wang Ergui's Erlian and the devil in Shentouling are on fire. Don't worry, Erlian can hold on for a while. ."
Gao Shusheng and Gao Dashan just walked over. Chen Yixian whispered: "Two, my estimate. In less than an hour, the devils in our base area will rush here, and the reinforcements of our military division will rush over. There is likely to be a melee here. I mean..." Chen Yixian stopped here and continued: "The devil’s current strongholds in Xiaoliuzhuang and Xihe Camp are empty. Should we kill them with a carbine. But, that way. If you do, the second company here will lose a lot."
"They have lost a lot?" Gao Dashan said immediately: "As soon as our side starts, the devil may withdraw troops. However, the devil has cavalry this time. Our two companies can still make do with the firepower, if it is the second company, The loss is really devastating. It's okay for the reinforcements of the military division to come over, otherwise?"
"You can talk about it too!" Chen Yi first looked at Gao Shusheng and said, "This? This is a critical time. To be honest, I haven't committed such a hardship when I came to fight in this plain area!"
"Tell me!" Gao Shusheng said loudly, "There is no risk in this battle. We will attack Xiaoliuzhuang stronghold as the main force, no? No, it is better for us to attack Xihe Camp. Take down Xihe Camp and use heavy weapons. I'm fighting against Xiaoliuzhuang. At that time, I'm not afraid that the devils won't return. As long as the devils here return, will Erlian be out of danger?"
Chen Yi first slapped his lap on his thigh: "Okay, just do it!"
Besides, Wang Ergui, occupying a commanding height, caught the fire with Huang Daocheng's imperial consortium that came down from Shentou Ridge. Huang Daocheng's imperial Union army was not strong enough to break through Wang Ergui's position, and was firmly blocked by the second company's soldiers at the foot of the mountain. All of this made Sasaki on the Shentou Ridge look particularly clearly through the telescope.
"Baga..." Sasaki yelled angrily. He immediately ordered a small team of Japanese devils to go down the mountain to supervise the battle: "Second Lieutenant Takagi, yours, when you are in Captain Huang's team, you must fight out the imperial army's might. There is a feeling of cowardice, no matter how you kill it. Yours, understand?"
"Understood!" Takagi saluted and took a small group of Japanese devils down the mountain. At this time, Sasaki had discovered that the soldiers and civilians under the command of Li Xianmin had evacuated the army: more than 10,000 men and women, old and young, plus cattle, sheep, carts and the like. Sasaki saw the call of "wow wow wow", but he couldn't help it. Because Sasaki knew in his heart that the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang Mountains could attack this Shentou Ridge at any time. If Shentouling were to be lost, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Sasaki was getting angry. The signal officer sent a telegram from Captain Kameda, which meant that the brigade had begun to gather at the Shinto Ridge generation, and Sasaki was able to guard the Shinto Ridge and resolutely assemble the Toba Road to the Shinto Ridge. .
Sasaki thought about it, and immediately sent a telegram back to Captain Kameda. The telegram stated the direction of the Tubal Road military and civilian retreat and asked whether to pursue the killing. But the telegram was just sent, and immediately a soldier reported to him: "Lieutenant, a large number of Tubal Road was found at the foot of the mountain. ."
"Where?..." As soon as he heard it, Sasaki realized that it was the Eighth Route Army from the Taihang Mountains. He immediately followed the soldiers to the west of Shentou Ridge and scanned the foot of the mountain with a telescope. Sure enough, he saw that there were about a few hundred Eighth Route Army in Shentou. The ridge area is roundabout.
"Telegraph to Captain Kameda right away? No, no, I want to talk directly to your lieutenant." Sasaki quickly walked a few steps to the communication office, and radioed to the communication office: "Quickly, contact me Captain Kameda. Said I have an emergency military report."
A few minutes later, the operator handed the microphone to Sasaki. Sasaki took the microphone and said, "Your Excellency, I am Lieutenant Sasaki. Now, I'm reporting an emergency to you. The Eighth Route Army from Taihang Mountain has been dispatched to the foot of Shentouling Mountain. "
"It's great!" Kameda smiled upon hearing the horse: "Lieutenant Sasaki, you must bite this Tuba Road, and strive to turn Shentou Ridge into the tomb of the Tuba Road. Don't worry, there will be no more than twenty. Minutes, my army rushed to Shentouling immediately."
"Your Excellency!" Sasaki said, "Should I let the cavalry team come first. I am worried that Tuba Road in the Taihang Mountains will attack my offensive troops from behind. In that case, my Imperial Army troops will suffer heavy losses."
"Okay!" Lieutenant Kameda nodded and said: "Then, I will immediately order my cavalry squadron to attack, and the target is directly at Shintou Ridge. Lieutenant Sasaki, you must respond in advance and send someone to my cavalry team. Wizard."
Let's talk about Wang Ergui, who resisted Huang Daocheng's imperial confederate army, secretly happy in his heart: Who said that the combat capability of our county brigade is poor? Can't we also fight the resistance war? Wasn't the imperial cohort watching the devils still blocked by us? Wang Ergui saw the soldiers and civilians retreating into the mountainous area through the binoculars, as well as Chen Yixian's brigade, and he was completely relieved in his heart. However, after Sasaki sent a small group of Japanese devils down the mountain, the imperial cohort increased its combat effectiveness under the intimidation of the Japanese devils, and began to attack the second company's position as if it were their lives. The Japanese devils took up the 38 large guns and used their bright bayonet to supervise the battle behind the Imperial Union Army. Captain Takagi also held up the Toyo Sword. As long as they found the Imperial Union soldiers attacking later, they would immediately use the sword to deal with them. In this way, the imperial confederate army had their lives, and Wang Ergui obviously felt the pressure. When Wang Ergui picked up the binoculars and looked at his head again, he was now gone.
"This?" Wang Ergui became even more worried when he heard this: "How can we leave when this reinforcement comes?"
There is no way, Wang Ergui deserves to order his soldiers to resist desperately again, and then he took out his binoculars and looked around, hoping to see the reinforcements coming from the Taihang Mountains. But after watching for a long time, Wang Ergui did not see Captain Gao's team after all. The reason is very simple, because Battalion Commander Gao's team came from the west of Shentou Ridge, Sasaki on the top of the mountain saw it, but Wang Ergui couldn't see it.
Battalion Captain Gao found the devil on Shentou Ridge and ordered the team to go around. He heard the sparse gunshots in the distance, knowing that Chen Yixian's team and the devils must have been fighting on Shentouling's side, and he quickly ordered the team to leave. I hope that the team with Chen Yixian will quickly catch up.
The devil's cavalry came too fast! Before the troops from the high battalion commander of the military division arrived, Kameda's cavalry team arrived behind the position of Wang Ergui's Second Company. The Second Company had already suffered from the enemy's back and stomach, and the soldiers with 20 or 30 casualties immediately became agitated.
The squadron leader of the Japanese Devil Cavalry Squadron is called Kono, who is also a lieutenant. He picked up his binoculars and wanted to take a look, and immediately raised his saber: "Cavalry Squadron, all strike out..."
The cavalry was terrific, and Erlian was currently in a situation where it was being attacked by the enemy, and the position was immediately messed up. Wang Ergui wanted to order a retreat at this moment, but it was too late. At this time, a platoon leader named Three Toads ran up and said, "Company Commander Wang, there is only one way to survive right now. Let's surrender to the Imperial Army."
Wang Ergui looked at the Devil Cavalry closer and closer, and then at the Eighth Route Army soldiers around him who looked at him eagerly, his face turned yellow: "Comrades? Comrades, me? Us?"
As soon as the three toads saw Huang Daocheng, they shouted: "Captain Huang, stop fighting, we surrender!" Then, the three toads immediately shouted to the dozens of Eighth Route Army soldiers on the ground: "Brothers, Raise the gun. Otherwise, the Japanese's saber will hit your head! Raise the gun in your hand..."
When the Guizi cavalry of Heye rushed to the front, Wang Ergui's second company officers and soldiers raised their hands. Kono was still angry and rode his horse around Erlian's position a few times before suddenly raising the saber in his hand again. For a while, there were miserable screams everywhere on the battlefield
