The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

More than 300 little devils rushed forward desperately, and the captain suddenly led some thirty devils to surround Major General Ikeda: "General, a frontal assault is too dangerous. I will let them cover you and break out from the flanks. I will lead the troops to attack from the front." , to attract the attention of the enemy, you take advantage of the chaos to withdraw from the battlefield."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Major General Ikeda to object, he ordered the lieutenant aside: "I will leave it to you if the brigade commander is safe."

"Protect the brigade leader from the battlefield at all costs, and it will be safe to join the reinforcements."

"Execute the order and go now!"

Major General Ikeda originally wanted to refuse, but the guards around him received a death order and did not give him a chance to refuse at all.

After arranging the brigade leader's retreat, the captain's only worry was gone. He drew out his command knife without hesitation, held the handle of the knife with both hands, and rushed straight ahead with his subordinates.

In order to cover the brigade commander's safe evacuation from the battlefield, the frontal attack must be as fierce as possible.

Only when he personally leads the team to launch the attack can the soldiers' will to fight be stimulated to the greatest extent and everyone will charge harder.

The greater the defensive pressure of the Eighth Route Army in front, the other Eighth Route Army will focus on themselves, and the brigade commander will have a chance to break out of the encirclement while taking advantage of the chaos.

"Clap clap clap..."

The submachine guns equipped by the special operations team fired continuously, and a group of three special operations members retreated while fighting.

The bullets in the three magazines have not yet been fired, and the three special forces members in the second row have already participated in the battle, continuing to use firepower to slow down the breakout speed of the Japanese and puppet troops.

"Clap clap clap..."

The two special warfare units that detoured to the devil's flank joined the battle in time, and the number of submachine guns fired at the same time on the battlefield reached nine in an instant.

"Bang bang..."

Two rifle shots suddenly sounded in the woods behind the submachine gunner. Under the cover of submachine gun fire, no one noticed.

The devil's captain who was hiding in the middle of the breakout troops fell to the ground with a bloody hole drilled on his forehead and chest at the same time, and there was no movement on the spot.

The captain died, the morale of the devils dropped significantly, and the assault speed was much slower than before.

The guerrilla brigade was just in place, and the artillery company also sent several mortars over. After a while, the more than 100 devils remaining on the battlefield were wiped out.

…………

Fortunately for the commander of the devil brigade, on the chaotic battlefield, all the Eighth Route Army focused on the more than 300 devils who broke through the encirclement, and no one noticed them.

Using the cover of bushes and woods, he escaped from the battlefield by chance, and ran towards the reinforcements with his legs stretched out.

"General, why are you here? Are you mopping up the troops in the middle?" Major Ishii commanded the mopping up troops on the right. Looking at the distressed Major General Ikeda in front of him, he was frightened on the spot, and asked anxiously when he realized it.

"An accident happened to the sweeping troops in the middle. Let the troops march forward quickly and reinforce the battlefield immediately. Maybe some troops can be rescued." Major General Ikeda's face was very ugly, and he ordered with suppressed anger.

"If it weren't for the third brigade's desperate attack, I wouldn't even have the chance to evacuate from the battlefield."

Major Ishii's mind was full of doubts.

In his memory, the mopping up troops in the middle road were still fine this morning, why did something happen after half a day, it was more than 1000 imperial troops and two battalions of imperial association troops.

However, the military situation was urgent, and there was no time for him to answer these questions, so he immediately took the order: "My humble officer will let the troops march faster now."

…………

"The troops retreat immediately, take away all the weapons and ammunition that can be taken away, and blow up the ones that cannot be taken away, and we must not let the little devil take it back." Huang Yu ordered while looking at his watch.

"Judging from the time, the devil reinforcements have 10 minutes to reach the battlefield, and we must leave here within 10 minutes."

After speaking, he rushed to the battlefield at the foot of the mountain.

The devils brought a lot of weapons and ammunition into the mountain, and retreated in a hurry. Many weapons and ammunition were left on the battlefield, especially shells, which were scattered on both sides of the mountain road in boxes.

These are the most scarce materials for the guerrilla brigade, and they will not give up if they can't give up.

There are too few troops participating in the war, and they cannot all be taken away.

Although there were not many guards around Huang Yu, each of them carried back a box of shells, which added up to more than 100 shells, which was enough to support a small-scale battle.

As soon as he carried a box of shells on his shoulders, Huang Yu saw Zhang Xuan running towards him with a light machine gun full of disappointment: "Captain, we killed a little devil and the captain, but their brigade commander ran away."

"According to the account of the captured puppet army: Major General Devil's brigade commander followed the mopping up troops in the middle, but we didn't find the body of Major General Little Devil on the battlefield, so he probably ran away."

Huang Yu said indifferently: "The monk can't run away from the temple if he can run away. As long as they don't withdraw their troops and continue to stay in the mountains to sweep us, the troops will still have a chance to destroy him."

"The top priority now is to clean up the battlefield and bring back as many weapons and ammunition as possible, especially artillery shells.

"We used at least [-] rounds of ammunition in the previous battle. If the captured supplies are not enough to consume, the guerrilla brigade will have fewer and fewer shells in stock, and finally fall into the predicament of having no ammunition available."

"Give the machine gun to others, and you will carry a box of shells."

"All the captive Imperial Association troops are mobilized, and each person carries a box of ammunition back. Those who violate the order will be dealt with by military law."

"Our Eighth Route Army treats prisoners well, but they must obey our army's orders, and we have the right to enforce battlefield discipline for those who violate them."

As soon as Huang Yu left with his troops, Major General Ikeda rushed to the battlefield.

"General, the Eighth Route Army has just left the battlefield with a lot of spoils. We still have time to pursue it. How about we go after it now?" Shao Zuo Ishii rushed to the battlefield one step ahead of the brigade commander. When he arrived, he could still see the Eighth Route Army with binoculars With the retreating troops, Major General Ikeda ran over to ask for a fight as soon as he arrived.

He felt that the Eighth Route Army had just annihilated the sweeping troops in the middle, and no matter how powerful the troops were, they would kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, so killing them now would definitely take advantage of a lot.

Seeing that the brigade commander stared at the corpse of the soldier in front of him and didn't answer, Major Ishii didn't want to let go of this good opportunity, so he decided to fight for it again and continue to challenge: "The Eighth Route Army has just experienced a bloody battle. The troops must be very tired, and the overall combat effectiveness is not as good as before. Our Hunting them down now will definitely catch them off guard, please give the general an order."

Major General Ikeda moved, but his next order disappointed Major Ishii: "The troops immediately clean up the battlefield and arrange the remains of the soldiers who died in battle. Not a single soldier can be thrown away."

"Without my order, no one can rush to kill the Eighth Route Army."

Shao Zuo Ishii was very unwilling and said: "General, I think that hunting down the Eighth Route Army now will surely yield rich results, and if you miss it, it will be gone. Can't we come back to clean up the battlefield after we defeat the Eighth Route Army?"

"Bageyalu, you treat the Eighth Route Army as a bunch of pigs, waiting for you to hunt them down, won't they resist?" Major General Ikeda retorted angrily.

"Isn't it just right to resist?" Major Ishii had never really fought against Huang Yu before, so he didn't know how strong his opponent was. Looking at Major General Ikeda, he felt confident.

"Our army has high morale, well-equipped equipment, and strong combat effectiveness.

"The Eighth Route Army is an exhausted army with heavy casualties. If we fight against them now, the final winner will definitely be us."

Major General Ikeda shook his head, and asked again: "How do you know that they suffered heavy casualties, the troops were exhausted, and their combat effectiveness dropped drastically."

"Do you still need to think about it?" Major General Ishii blurted out.

"The mopping forces in the middle are the most powerful among the three mopping forces. The Eighth Route Army wiped out the mopping forces in the middle. No matter how powerful the troops are, they will have a few teeth knocked out and pay a huge price. It would be an understatement to say that they suffered heavy casualties. Maybe the Eighth Route Army that participated in the battle has already lost its combat effectiveness, we are now chasing and killing them, and we only need a surprise attack to eliminate them."

"Baga..." Major General Ikeda became angry when he heard it, and cursed angrily.

"How many times have I told you that you can't just rely on guesswork in war, and you can't rely too much on your own experience... Many times, previous combat experience is not only useless, but can even kill people."

When he said this sentence, the scene of the firefight just now appeared in Major General Ikeda's mind at the same time.

Not only did the powerful mid-range mopping-up force fail to severely injure the Eighth Route Army, but was crushed and beaten by the Eighth Route Army all the way, like a bereaved dog, being wiped out bit by bit.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that the mopping up troops he had placed high hopes on would be beaten up like that by the Eighth Route Army.

Maybe he would make an empirical mistake like Major Ishii, thinking that the Eighth Route Army had suffered heavy losses in the battle against the sweeping troops in the middle, so he directly led troops to pursue them.

Now he won't.

In the battle just now, the Eighth Route Army did not do its best.Rather than saying that the mopping forces in the middle were defeated by the Eighth Route Army, it would be better to say that they were defeated by the Eighth Route Army artillery.

The infantry who participated in the battle lost very little, and their combat effectiveness was not weakened, but also improved a lot because of the victory and high morale.

In addition, they seized the equipment and ammunition of the mopping troops in the middle, and the firepower of the troops will also become stronger, and the overall combat effectiveness will increase a lot.

Leading troops to chase and kill the Eighth Route Army now is tantamount to running a sheep into a tiger's mouth and running into the Eighth Route Army's guns.

They can wipe out all the sweeping troops in the center within an hour, and they can definitely wipe out any of the sweeping troops on the left and right within an hour.

In order to avoid such accidents, it is safest for the troops to stand still and wait for another sweeping force to arrive before attacking.

Shao Zuo Ishii didn't want to step in the middle to sweep up the troops, so he gave up the idea of ​​chasing and killing the Eighth Route Army after hearing the brigade commander's explanation.

…………

Huang Yu was rushing forward desperately with his troops, for fear that the devils would send troops to chase and kill them.

In the eyes of Major General Ikeda, the Eighth Route Army has hidden at least two main force regiments in this mountain. The Eighth Route Army I saw in the battle just now was less than one main force regiment. This is why the Eighth Route Army has few casualties and still has a strong combat effectiveness. .

Not so.

In order to eat up the sweeping troops in the middle, Huang Yu had already sent all the troops he could mobilize to the battlefield. If one soldier was sacrificed, the Eighth Route Army in the mountains would have one less.

Although the artillery was the protagonist on the battlefield and killed most of the Japanese and puppet troops, the infantry of the guerrilla brigade still lost more than 100 people.

There are less than 400 soldiers in the guerrilla brigade who can still fight, half of them are recruits and half of them are veterans. There are only more than 120 soldiers left in the reinforced company brought by Huang Yu from Yizhong, and the total number of soldiers is less than 500.

If Major General Ikeda's brain gets hot and he leads troops to chase down the guerrilla brigade, Huang Yu will also become a desperate dog.
