    Chapter 44: Evacuation from Jiaxing (new book, please watch)

    The evacuation process from Jiaxing went smoothly. After the first squadron left, Li Guoyao and others began to load the trucks, taking away all the equipment and supplies they could take away, and blowing up everything they could not take away.

    When they learned that Li Guoyao had ordered to blow up all the dozens of tons of ammunition and equipment that could not be taken away, all the officers, including Xu Hu, Wang Zhanhai and others, looked depressed.

    They are used to being poor. When they see weapons and equipment, they are like an old gangster who has been in prison for ten years when he sees a beautiful woman. They shed tears.

    But the problem is that there are only more than a thousand of them, and there are only a dozen or so cars collected from Jiaxing City. Based on the maximum load capacity of the Little Devil six-wheel truck, the cargo that can be transported at one time is only more than 20 tons.  .

    And the more than 20 tons of things that can be transported cannot all be weapons, equipment and ammunition, at least one-fifth of the food and other materials must be taken away, which means that the equipment and ammunition they can take away are only a dozen tons.

    After much deliberation, Li Guoyao ordered his people to take away all the light and heavy machine guns, two rifles per person, and artillery and ammunition.

    Forget about mountain artillery and field artillery. Firstly, there are not so many artillerymen in the army, and few people can operate those large-caliber artillery. Secondly, the weight of mountain artillery and field artillery is too heavy, which seriously affects the marching speed of the army, so Li Guoyao  Only eight small-caliber mortars were left in the artillery squadron. As for the more than ten mountain guns and field guns and six or seven Type 92 infantry guns in the Little Devils arsenal, they were all blown up by Li Guoyao's order. At the same time, there were also  More than ten tons of artillery shells of various types.

    "Although Li Guoyao himself felt very distressed, after all, such a large number of weapons and equipment was of great value. If it were replaced by Da Yang, it would cost at least millions of pieces. It would be a pity to blow up like this.

    "However, there is only so much they can take away, and what they can't take away can only be blown up. You can't leave it to the little devils, right?"

    At six o'clock in the morning, just four hours after capturing Jiaxing City, Li Guoyao and others quietly evacuated Jiaxing. Until this time, the headquarters of the Japanese Tenth Army and several divisions operating at the front did not notice anything unusual!

    It¡¯s not that the little devils are of poor quality, it¡¯s that they never imagined that under such circumstances, there would be Chinese troops near Jiaxing City, and they would still have the guts to attack Jiaxing.

    The arrogant and arrogant character of the Tenth Army was slapped hard by Li Guoyao, and slapped in the face!

    Wuzhen. Bantou.

    After a day of rapid march, Li Guoyao's troops finally arrived at Batou Village, Wuzhen, before dark, which was still more than 60 kilometers away from Huzhou.

    As soon as the troops settled down in Batou Village, Lin Yudie hurried over to report: "Detachment leader, the First Squadron is in urgent need of a call! They have arrived at the outskirts of Huzhou!"

    "So fast?"

    "They travel by cars and motorcycles, and the speed is naturally beyond what we can match. In addition, they are wearing the Japanese military uniforms, so they can act boldly with confidence, so they have already arrived at the outskirts of Huzhou at around 4 o'clock in the afternoon.  !¡±

    "How is the situation in Huzhou?" Li Guoyao asked again.

    "Not good. According to their investigation, the 55th Regiment of the 18th Infantry Division is attacking Wuxing, and the remaining regiments are besieging Huzhou. The defenders have lost almost all their peripheral positions. According to the current situation  The battle situation is such that the 28th Army may not be able to hold on for even three days!"

    Li Guoyao looked at the map and said: "The current target of the Japanese army is Huzhou. Ushijima Sadao should place the main force outside Huzhou City, while the defenders will deploy defenses along the Wuxing and Huzhou lines, because this is the only way to stop them.  The Japs occupy Huzhou. But if the Japs are allowed to capture Huzhou, the next stage will inevitably be to bypass Taihu Lake and attack Yixing, and finally to Nanjing with a sword."

    "Yes, the kid's ultimate goal must be Nanjing!" Ma Desheng said in a deep voice.

    "Then what should we do now?" Wang Zhanhai said.

    Li Guoyao looked at the map and said: "It is better to rush to Huzhou according to the original plan, and take advantage of the favorable opportunity when the little devil does not know the existence of our army, and give him a hard blow from behind. With our restraint, Huzhou will  The pressure on the defenders will be greatly reduced. I hope they can hold on for a while longer, perhaps until reinforcements arrive."

    Although he said this, waiting for reinforcements was just Li Guoyao's self-comfort. In fact, he knew very well that it was impossible for the 28th Army to have reinforcements because all higher-level departments, including the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government, were currently organizing a large-scale retreat.  , who is still in the mood to send troops to reinforce Huzhou, a small place that cannot be smaller.

    ¡°And Li Guoyao also knew that if history did not change,Huzhou could last for three days at most. Three days later, the 28th Army was driven out of Huzhou in despair, so there was not much time left for them.

    "Detachment leader, how should we fight this battle?" Wang Zhanhai asked again.

    Li Guoyao did not answer his words, but turned to Lin Yudie and asked: "How many little devils are there outside Huzhou City, and what are their numbers?"

    Lin Yudie immediately said: "According to the report from the first squadron, there is only one unit of the 18th Infantry Division outside Huzhou City. The commander is Ushijima Sadao, with the rank of lieutenant general. This division has four infantry regiments.  In addition, there are one regiment each of cavalry, artillery, engineers, supplementary troops and baggage troops. There are currently three regiments besieging Huzhou, namely the 56th Regiment, the 114th Regiment and the 124th Regiment. The 55th Regiment is  Attack Wuxing with the cooperation of the main artillery unit and the tank unit!"

    While Lin Yudie was talking, Li Guoyao kept making marks on the map, and soon the map was dotted with Li Guoyao's marks!

    As soon as he finished speaking, Li Guoyao said: "Everyone knows the current situation. The main force of the Japs is now in Huzhou, and there is also a part of Wuxing. If we go to Huzhou with our small force, the effect will not be very big, so my  My opinion is to reinforce Wuxing first."

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "Wuxing is more than ten kilometers away from the urban area of ??Huzhou. As long as the Japanese army captures Wuxing, they can complete the encirclement of Huzhou. Obviously the 28th Army is also aware of this, so it insists on guarding Wuxing. If we can get behind the kid  If we come here, the stubborn ones will not dare to attack Wuxing with all their strength, which can be regarded as resolving the crisis of the 28th Army from a side."

    "Detachment leader, what if the kid turns around and hits us? You know, this possibility is very high!" Xu Hu asked.

    Li Guoyao said calmly: "It's not very big, but it's certain. Once the 55th Regiment is attacked by our troops, they will definitely turn around and attack us, but it doesn't matter. If we can fight, we will fight. If we can't, we will retreat immediately."  . Anyway, we have a small number of troops and are relatively flexible. It will not be easy for the little devils to catch us."

    "But if the Japs are really determined to destroy us, they will definitely mobilize heavy troops"

    Before Xu Hu finished speaking, Li Guoyao said again: "If our small force can mobilize the entire 18th Division of the Little Japs, it will be worth it even if the whole army is annihilated. What's more, with me here, the Little Japs want to annihilate them all."  We are so stupid and still need a good set of teeth!"

    "Well, since you have made your decision, detachment leader, then we fully support it!" Xu Hu said.

    Li Guoyao nodded and said again: "I will tell you my thoughts first. You can listen to it and then add more! We have few people and are suitable for fighting in the Longmen formation with the little devils. After all, the little devils have just captured Shanghai and the troops are in full swing. We  It¡¯s not appropriate to have a head-on confrontation with him, so I plan to give the little devil a fight he¡¯s never seen before!¡±

    ¡°What haven¡¯t you seen before?¡±

    Li Guoyao said immediately: "Have you seen this place? This is the Yiyan Mountain in the southeast of Wuxing. Although the mountain is not high, it has many mountains and rugged roads. It is a good place to stop the attack."

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "I suggest that we find a way to attract the little Japs here, and build blocking positions on Yiyan Mountain based on the mountains to lure the Japanese troops to attack, and block them along the way to share the pressure on Huzhou. At the same time, we can  Kill and injure the enemy's vitality in large numbers."

    "And our goal in this battle is not to completely annihilate the Japanese army. We don't have that big appetite, let alone the strength. We just flank the Japanese defenders to reduce the pressure on the Huzhou defenders. Therefore, we are not responsible for defending the territory in this battle.  It is the enemy's responsibility to kill as many imps as we can, since we have plenty of weapons and ammunition anyway."

    At this time, Xu Hu said with a hint of worry: "Detachment leader, I'm not worried about anything else. It's just that the Japs have tank troops. Our machine guns and mortars don't have much effect on tanks. Once the Japs send out  The tank troops attacked us and the casualties were not small!"

    Li Guoyao smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about that. If the little devil really sends armored troops over, leave it to me to handle it. I guarantee that as many as the devils come will die!"

    Seeing Li Guoyao speaking so confidently, Xu Hu immediately said: "Okay then!"

    "Okay, that's it, let's prepare according to this battle plan!"
