"Are you satisfied with this little victory?" Zhang Xuan gradually had a bold idea in his mind, and looked at the two squadron leaders under his command with anticipation and asked back.

"The chief of staff still wants to continue the fight?" Chen Feng heard the hidden meaning in Zhang Xuan's words, and hurriedly asked.

Zhang Xuan pointed to the target he just spotted on the map and said, "There was originally an infantry brigade stationed in a town five kilometers away from here. We just wiped out half of the brigade, and there are still about [-] little devils left."

"I want to pursue the victory and take down half of the infantry brigade before dawn."

"Under normal circumstances: a full-strength brigade of the Japanese army would carry two to three ammunition bases for emergencies. If these five hundred little devils are taken down, not only can the little devils outside the mountain be severely injured, but at least one battalion will be captured. equipment."

"Not to mention ammunition, all kinds of bullets add up to at least 20 rounds, and we can harvest a lot of shells that we can't even capture..."

After finishing speaking, he stared at the two squadron leaders and asked: "How is the morale of the troops? Are there too many casualties? Can we continue to fight?"

Both Chen Feng and Zhu Hexuan were from the guerrillas, and they had hardly fought such a big battle before them. As soon as Zhang Xuan finished speaking, they were moved and promised: "Please rest assured, Chief of Staff, the morale of the soldiers is very high, and the loss is not too big."

"As long as the chief of staff gives the order, we can fight until dawn."

"Report..." Shen Bo, the captain of the third squadron, and Zhang Qun, the commander of the artillery company, appeared at the door of the room at the same time.

In order to seize the time to take down the Guanjiabao stronghold, as soon as the Jinniupo ambush was over, Zhang Xuan led the guard company and the [-]st, [-]th, and [-]nd companies to set off first, while the artillery company and the seventh company stayed there to clean up the battlefield.

There were more than ten times more Japanese troops in the town than here, and their combat effectiveness was also stronger. They would definitely not be able to take it down with only three companies on hand.

Zhang Xuan was about to send someone to contact Paolian and Qilian, but he didn't expect Cao Cao to arrive as soon as he said Cao Cao.

Invite them in quickly: "You came very timely."

"I'm going to pursue the victory and take down the remaining half of the infantry brigade in the town five kilometers away."

"The enemy has more than 500 people, and we don't have any advantage in strength. Head-to-head, the attack on the devil's garrison will definitely not work."

"I'm going to find another way to copy the tactics of the captain's bombardment of the little devils' garrison in Pingyang Town. First blow up the little devils, and then launch a surprise attack to destroy the enemy during the movement."

As he spoke, he shifted his gaze to Zhang Qun, the commander of the artillery company: "Company commander Zhang, I remember that you also participated in the battle when the captain bombarded Pingyang Town. .”

"Fifty percent..." Zhang Qun replied hesitantly.

"Although the artillery company is equipped with nine mortars and two infantry artillery, the more than 500 little devils in the town are also equipped with six mortars, and we have three more. The level of gunners is not as good as them. Both sides can fight A tie would be nice."

"If we didn't have the advantage in the raid, we wouldn't have a [-]% chance of winning."

This result obviously did not meet Zhang Xuan's expectations, and the expectant expression on his face instantly turned nervous. He stared at Zhang Qun and continued to ask, "In addition, what about the six mortars we seized in Jinniupo?"

"At most [-]% chance of winning..." Zhang Qun answered cautiously.

After speaking, he suddenly thought of something, and continued: "If we can lock the devil's garrison in advance and knock out their artillery garrison first, the chance of winning will be [-]% higher."

"That's enough..." The tense expression on Zhang Xuan's face disappeared and was replaced by a smile again. Looking at Zhang Qun, he said confidently, "I'll help you figure out the specific location of the Devil's artillery station."

"The troops will set off in 10 minutes, take all the light and heavy machine guns and mortars we just seized, and try to end the battle before dawn."

…………

Shao Zuo Sakuragi is the captain of the Japanese army stationed in the town. After the deputy led the troops to attack, he stayed at the headquarters and waited for news.

More than an hour ago, he was startled by the sudden sound of firefights from the Guanjiabao stronghold. He thought something had happened to the deputy who went into the mountain to pursue the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army once again broke out of the mountain and attacked the stronghold.

As a result, the sound of firefighting stopped after only two or three minutes, and the worry on Major Sakuragi's face disappeared at the same time.

Although the stronghold suffered an attack and the troops suffered heavy losses, there are still more than 100 garrisons.

No matter how poor the combat effectiveness is, it is impossible to be wiped out by the Eighth Route Army within two to three minutes.

There are still a large number of dark forts in the stronghold. If the Eighth Route Army wants to capture them, they must either use siege artillery or blast them.

But the sound of firefight just now did not explode, which means that the gun towers and bunkers in the stronghold are all intact, and the Eighth Route Army has no chance to capture the stronghold.

The sound of the firefight just now was probably due to the opponent's repeated attacks.

By attacking the stronghold to mislead the pursuers who entered the mountain, let them return to the stronghold to support the main force of the Eighth Route Army who is being hunted down in the mountain.

The team leader originally wanted to call the base to inquire and confirm his own analysis.

As a result, the telephone line connecting the town to the stronghold was cut off, which also proved his analysis was correct.

In order to confuse the pursuing troops and confuse themselves, the Eighth Route Army deliberately cut off the telephone line between the town and the stronghold, making themselves think that the stronghold suffered an accident and lost their minds.

The more Sakuragi thought about it, the more he felt that his analysis made sense, and he directly ordered the troops to stand still, as if the sound of firefight just now had never happened.

"How long has it been since the chasing troops entered the mountain?" Major Sakuragi suddenly raised his head and asked.

"Report to the captain, it's almost five hours!" The combat staff officer replied after glancing at his watch.

"When they entered the mountain, the Eighth Route Army had already retreated for 10 minutes. The pursuers should be able to catch up with them by marching for two and a half hours. The battle will end within half an hour. Now they should be on the way to withdraw from the mountain, and they will be back to the pass in more than an hour. Fort stronghold."

"Yoxi..." Major Sakuragi recognized his subordinate's analysis very much, and ordered while nodding: "Repair the telephone line between the town and the Guanjiabao stronghold as soon as possible, and I want to know the exact number of the chasing troops as soon as possible... Boom boom boom... "

Before Major Sakuragi finished his order, a violent explosion sounded in his ears.

Suddenly, a lot of flames burst out of the tent, and the screams of the soldiers and the terrified screams reached the ears at the same time.

He reacted very quickly, grabbed the command knife on the table and rushed out of the tent.

"Boom boom boom..." The second round of shells fell from the sky, setting off a lot of flames again.

A shell hit a distance of more than 20 meters from him, and the two panicked subordinates were blown up instantly, and fell to the ground without moving.

"Report sir, our station has been attacked by unknown artillery fire, and the opponent is equipped with fifteen mortars." The captain of the guard reacted very quickly, rushing to the captain and reporting nervously.

"It's very dangerous here, it may be covered by artillery fire at any time, you must transfer immediately..."

"Shut up..." the captain interrupted rudely.

"I didn't even know who the enemy was, and I was so scared that I gave up the station as soon as the artillery fire was fired. When the news spread, the whole brigade would be reduced to a laughing stock."

"The enemy has artillery and we also have it. Let the artillery squadron counterattack immediately."

"Even if we leave the station, we will go out under the cover of artillery fire, launch a counterattack against the enemy who attacked us and destroy them."

The captain of the guard was in a hurry and had to report again: "It's too late..."

"Half of the artillery shells fired by the enemy fell on the artillery squadron station. They must have suffered heavy casualties from the bombing. They were overwhelmed and had no condition to fight back."

"Boom boom boom..."

In the blink of an eye, the fourth round of artillery shells had already dropped. Apart from the explosion, there were screams from the subordinates, which made the captain heartbroken.

The captain of the guard seized the opportunity to continue to persuade: "Sir, the enemy's shells are getting closer and closer to us. If we don't leave, it will be too late. Only when we withdraw from the area covered by enemy artillery fire and the troops are no longer bombed, can we have a chance to fight back. A bomb can wipe us out here."

"Baga... This battle was so useless, I had to abandon the station without even seeing the enemy..." Shao Zuo Sakuragi scolded angrily.

In order to reduce the loss, he had to act like a coward and ordered helplessly in his anger: "Retreat, evacuate the garrison as quickly as possible, and gather at the gate of the garrison. I will take the initiative to attack and destroy the artillery units that attacked us..."

Five minutes later, there were more than 5 devils gathered around the team leader. Not only did the enemy's artillery fire not stop, but it seemed to extend towards the entrance of the station.

The captain was even more angry than before.

The troops were all forced to the gate of the garrison, and the enemy was still chasing and fighting him, making it clear that he wanted to drive him out.

I already had the idea of ​​taking the initiative to attack in my heart, but after being stimulated by the opponent, the idea became stronger, and I drew out the command knife with a whoosh, and pointed to the approximate location of the artillery position and ordered: "The whole army will kill me, and destroy the enemy at all costs." Sneak attack on our artillery unit, kill it..."

The artillery position is just one kilometer away, and the troops advance in a battle formation, and they can kill them in six to seven minutes.

The captain is very familiar with the surrounding terrain of the station. Apart from the town, there is no place where people can hide in other directions.

The enemy's artillery position is just in the opposite direction of the town, and the troops will kill them head-on, at least they will not suffer in terms of terrain.

Major Sakuragi followed in the middle of the team, holding a command knife in one hand and a pistol in the other, staring straight ahead, constantly urging the troops to speed up, for fear that the opponent would take the opportunity to escape.

When he was 400 meters away from the artillery position, Major Sakuragi had already heard the sound of "boom..." when the shells were fired. The warriors who were killed just now took revenge and killed them..."

More than 300 little devils, like a group of hungry wolves smelling blood, suddenly accelerated their assault speed, and rushed towards the artillery position like crazy.

Zhang Xuan led a company of guards to stand in front of the devils. He had just seized six heavy machine guns in Jinniupo and one heavy machine gun in Guanjiabao stronghold. He equipped himself with three heavy machine guns, a total of ten. Front.

Between the heavy machine gun and the heavy machine gun, there were more than a dozen light machine guns that had just been captured, all of which were ready to go, waiting for Zhang Xuan to give the order to fire.

The [-] Company squatted on both sides of the blocking position, ready to outflank the devils' attacking troops as soon as the staff officer's spear was fired.
