Chapter 755: The Huo Family is Strong and Righteous
Every time they go to the headquarters to ask for benefits, this trick always works. They didn't expect that it would be used on them today.
Political Commissar Feng, who was on the verge of dying from a serious illness, easily dodged and hid behind Li Dabenshi.
Li Si gnashed his teeth and said, "Political Commissar Feng collected the handkerchief so quickly today. Did he forget to apply chicken blood on it?"
Li Dabenshi: "Political Commissar Feng's condition is not important, what is important is Comrade Li Si.
You two are leaving soon, why don't you give us the walkie-talkie and the RGP-7 rocket launcher?"
Li Si rolled his eyes and said, "Why don't you just say this earlier? I'll go find Zejiu after this battle is over. I'll at least leave you with something to think about."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent again, as if a trace of sadness was lingering around them.
Not to mention the guerrilla division’s guard brigade here, which is helping the comrades of the national detachment to clean up the battlefield.
Qin Haichuan led the two main columns of the Sixth Guerrilla Division.
Together with the troops of the Jindong Independent Division, they began a pursuit operation that lasted hundreds of miles.
They used trucks to pull all the Type 92 infantry guns and artillery shells, and chased the Japanese.
If the Japanese tried to stop and block them, they would be immediately dispersed with artillery shells.
If the Japanese were found to be gathering together, they would be immediately stopped and the Type 92 infantry gun would be pushed down, and they would be directly dispersed with artillery shells.
Now even the two division commanders, Sakai and Nishimura, have dismounted and are walking.
They no longer dared to ride horses, as they had just been targeted by snipers from the Eighth Route Army.
After a burst of gunfire, the cavalry guards surrounding the two of them fell off their horses one after another.
Even the head of Division Commander Nishimura was plowed with a bloody groove by the rifle bullet.
All the cavalrymen looked at Nishimura, who was bleeding profusely. Who would dare to stay on the horse and become a living target, waiting to be shot by the Chinese sharpshooter?
In this way, the Japanese soldiers ran in front with empty stomachs, and the soldiers of the guerrilla division and the independent division chased them from behind.
After a night, when the sky brightened, the Japanese soldiers who had not eaten enough food and water all night welcomed a new day.
But what awaits them is no longer hope, but a black line in the distance ahead.
The black line slowly approached the staggering Japanese troops in the field.
Now even the division commander Nishimura, whose head was wrapped like a pig's, has noticed it.
They encountered Chinese cavalry on the plains, which blocked their escape route.
Division Commander Sakai went to the rear early in the morning to check on the situation of the Japanese troops. The more he looked, the more frightened he became.
When they left Wei County, only more than 28,000 people escaped.
He only had the strength of one brigade left, but Nishimura's division was lucky as his main force was still there.
But once you leave the county seat of Wei County, you will lose the protection of the city wall.
The Nishimura Division was like a pile of loose sand, and it only stayed together because of my help.
As they stopped and started, Japanese soldiers kept falling behind or dying.
Originally, heavy machine guns were the nemesis of cavalry, but the cavalry of the Chinese army never gave them this opportunity.
Once they discovered the Japanese heavy machine gun positions, they would hide and then call in artillery fire.
When night fell, this group of Chinese troops were not idle either. They fired flares around the retreating Japanese troops.
Even the well-informed Division Commander Sakai had to admire that the current Chinese army is really rich!
However, after a night of fighting, the guerrilla division was finally forced to retreat. But the Japanese army was also not having an easy time.
They were scattered and beaten by the guerrilla division, leaving behind the corpses of another regiment.
This Chinese army also seemed to know that the Sakai Division was a difficult nut to crack.
So they specifically targeted the 201st Division, and most of the losses in this regiment were caused by Nishimura's men.
But there is one piece of bad news, which has been concealed by Sakai.
Something happened to the baggage train that escaped empty-handed from Weixian County.
There were probably more than a thousand of them in total, and they magically disappeared under the cover of night. This was discovered by the Japanese troops retreating from behind.
This baggage train composed of people from the Peninsula left behind only dozens of bodies of Japanese officers and then disappeared calmly.
This was an organized and premeditated defection, and it was also an extremely demoralizing event.
Because they were all from the 201st Division, that is, Nishimura, Sakai did not make it public and planned to meet him in private later and then talk to him.
Just as the troops behind Sakai Organization continued to retreat in an orderly manner.
Suddenly, from the front of them came the sound of the Japanese army charging.
Sakai shouted, "Bakayaro, what's going on up ahead? What is that idiot Nishimura doing?"
At this time, a Japanese scout squadron leader came running over to report to him.
"Report to the general, we have spotted a large number of Chinese cavalry in the direction we are heading.
Division Commander Nishimura said that he felt this opportunity was extremely rare.
He said that if we can defeat these cavalrymen in one fell swoop, we can open up a passage back to the northeast."
Sakai: "How many Chinese cavalrymen are there on the opposite side? How did Division Commander Nishimura arrange them?"
The scout squadron leader swallowed his saliva and said, "It's still hard to see the full picture of their cavalry unit.
Judging from the size of the cavalry, there must be at least 20,000 of them."
Sakai: What do you mean by there are 20,000 cavalry just looking from the front?
Looking at the squadron leader's panicked look, Sakai knew that something was wrong.
This means that there should be a lot of Chinese cavalry behind them, or maybe they are just decoy troops?
But who can tell for sure?
Squadron Leader: "Just now, Division Commander Nishimura has sent out the Second Regiment of his division to charge the Chinese cavalry."
Sakai: “Damn it, Nishimura is just an ignorant idiot.
Use an infantry regiment to attack the 20,000 cavalry of the Chinese army?
What is he thinking? Did his art teacher teach him all his tactics subjects? "
He was now too distracted to care about the consequences of Nishimura's charge.
Sakai immediately gave orders, ordering the remaining soldiers of the 76th Division to immediately begin digging circular fortifications on the spot.
After that, they asked their logistics support personnel to start collecting food and protecting water sources.
He was ready to wait for reinforcements on the spot. Since the Chinese army's cavalry had surrounded them, it was impossible to break out.
I just hope they can evacuate the Japanese outposts along the way, and I can help if I can.
They could send a telegram to Okamura in Peking and ask him to send troops to rescue them.
In other words, they have to wait at least twenty-four hours before they have a chance to be rescued.
The Gannan cavalry that surrounded us this morning were led by Huo Jiaqiang himself.
Originally, the three Mongolian cavalry divisions were supposed to be in the first round of charge.
But Huo Jiaqiang is a kind and righteous man. He said that the current state of the Japanese troops is that they are trapped and fighting hard.
It would be better for the Gannan First Cavalry Army, the embodiment of Changshengtian’s will, to charge to the front.
As long as the balance of victory turns to Gannan, he will naturally let his Mongolian brothers take over.
At this point, all the Mongolian princes who came to surrender praised General Huo Jiaqiang.
It is said that Huo Jiaqiang is a man of "unparalleled benevolence and righteousness", and he is worthy of being the embodiment of Changshengtian's will.
