    On the New Second Regiment's side, Kong Jie's pursuit order was also quickly issued to the troops in front.

    The Japanese troops on both wings began to return to the center for reinforcements.  The Eighth Route Army troops on both wings began to fiercely pursue the retreating Japanese troops.

    Nanchuanfeng's troops had just retreated less than two kilometers, and his chief of staff said on the walkie-talkie: "General, those troops on Tubal Road are biting our rear troops. Do we want to fight back?"  "

    "Counterattack! How to counterattack? If we stop and counterattack now, not only will we not be able to effectively annihilate the enemy's troops, but we will also waste the time of rescuing Kuroki Ichiro and the others."

    Nan Chuanfeng¡¯s mind was very clear at this time.

    They know that the enemy's infantry units, even if they bite the troops behind them, cannot cause them heavy casualties.

    But if the center is completely lost and the enemy attacks from both sides, the losses they will suffer will inevitably be greater.

    "Yes! Got it, general!!" said his chief of staff.

    As a result, as soon as the words fell, a sharp whistling sound broke through the silence of the night sky.

    Nanchuan Feng is very familiar with this sound.  When their heavy artillery bombards, when the shells rub against the air, they will make this sharp sound.

    ¡°Boom boom!!!¡±

    A loud noise was heard. The howitzer regiment of the Fourth Army supporting the Eighth Route Army had already locked the position of the Japanese armored units through advanced night reconnaissance methods.

    They launched a fierce bombardment at the fleeing Japanese armored forces.

    Before, they had been using artillery fire to cover the Japanese positions in front.  This provides maximum support for the independent regiment's attack.

    At this time, the frontal battle was actually coming to an end.

    Li Yunlong¡¯s independent regiment, in just a few hours, defeated the Japanese brigade in front of them and was unable to fight back. They could only huddle in the last few positions and put up weak resistance.

    The soldiers of the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment pursued those Japanese infantry units that retreated relatively slowly and launched a fierce attack after catching up.

    The Japanese armored forces also had many infantry.

    At this time, in order to return reinforcements, the armored troops threw all their infantry units behind them.

    Armored vehicles and tanks run very fast, and the Eighth Route Army¡¯s infantry units naturally cannot catch up.  But these Japanese infantry units, like the Eighth Route Army, ran on two legs.

    Therefore, the Japanese troops in the rear, whether on the flanks or in the rear, were attacked by the Eighth Route Army's pursuit troops.

    And these Japanese infantry repeatedly asked the armored troops in front for certain assistance.

    But the reply they got was to ignore the Eighth Route Army's pursuit troops and continue to follow the main force to return reinforcements.

    This caused the Japanese rear area to gradually fall into chaos.

    It¡¯s not like they are trying to stop you, nor are you trying to run away with your butt stuck out and your head down.  Amid such hesitation, the Japanese troops in the rear gradually fell into disarray.

    The soldiers of the new regiment and battalion killed one person happily.

    Before, they were suppressed on the position by the Japanese armored vehicles and tanks, unable to raise their heads.

    But now it¡¯s different. When they catch up with the little devil¡¯s infantry, they beat them to death.

    The will of the Japanese troops to resist also became very unstable because the main force continued to retreat.  They often resist for a while and then continue to retreat.

    It didn¡¯t take long before he was bitten again by the troops pursuing the Eighth Route Army.

    Under such a vicious cycle, a Japanese infantry squadron would often be gradually cannibalized by the troops pursuing the Eighth Route Army.

    Coupled with the continuous bombardment of artillery, the Japanese army suffered much greater losses in this retreat than Nanchuan Feng originally imagined.

    At this time, the independent regiment on the front already knew the news of the return of Japanese reinforcements.

    Li Yunlong reluctantly used his binoculars to look at the last few positions of the Japanese army.

    He was very sure that the Japanese army must have senior commanders in those positions.

    But now there are more than 2,000 little Japs left, all concentrated in these positions.

    And they used the craters left by the bombardment of artillery shells to build a simple defense line.

    Li Yunlong is very sure that as long as he is given three hours.  Their troops will definitely be able to defeat the last Japanese army.Several positions were also captured.

    But the Japanese armored forces coming back for reinforcements will not give them so much time.

    Ding Wei has sent him three telegrams in a row, asking him to hurry up and retreat to his original position.  Don't be greedy for credit, otherwise the Japs' armored forces will outflank them from both wings, and their independent regiment will become the surrounded party.

    When the time comes, the Japanese army will take the initiative again, and the gains will outweigh the losses.

    Ding Wei knew Li Yunlong too well, so he sent these three telegrams, hoping that his old comrade could stay calm.

    "Old Li, it's time to retreat! The little Japanese's armored forces will be coming back for reinforcements soon."

    Zhao Gang patted his shoulder and said.

    He could see that Li Yunlong was unwilling to give in.  But this is a war, a war in which the enemy is strong and we are weak. They cannot be reluctant to fight, otherwise they may lose all their previous efforts.

    "I know, I just don't want to give in." Li Yunlong said one after another and cursed.

    "Pass my order, and each battalion will take turns to cover, withdraw from the battlefield, and return to the original position."

    Li Yunlong¡¯s order was quickly conveyed to all combat units.

    Even the troops who were still attacking the Japanese positions began to withdraw from the battlefield after receiving Li Yunlong's order.

    Although they could not completely wipe out the Japanese brigade, their results tonight were enough for them to be proud of.

    In one night, most of the main force of a Japanese brigade was wiped out. This is definitely an achievement worth bragging about.

    On the way to retreat, Li Yunlong said to Zhao Gang: "Old Zhao, guess what, after tonight's battle is over, if I tell the brigade commander about this, how will he reward me?"

    Zhao Gang laughed and said: "How else can I reward you? I will let you keep a battalion of horses and equipment, and all other captured weapons and equipment will be sent to the brigade headquarters!"

    Hearing this, Li Yunlong suddenly felt a pain in his body.

    He remembered that the large amount of weapons and equipment he had captured before was often due to a phone call from the brigade commander. The weapons and equipment of a battalion ended up in his hands, and only one company was left.

    "Alas, our brigade commander** said! This shearing of wool cannot be done in light of our independent regiment!

    "Then Lao Kong and Lao Ding also made a lot of seizures. Why don't we see our brigade commander gathering wool on them?"  "

    Li Yunlong said a little aggrievedly.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
