    With the issuance of Li Guoyao's order, the entire Shandong Guerrilla Corps quickly took action!

    Li Guoyao¡¯s goal in this battle was to capture the 17th Division, so not only did he invest more than 20,000 troops, but he also needed a large number of heavy weapons, all of which needed to be mobilized from Xiong¡¯er Mountain and other places.

    After three days of intense preparation, all the troops and the required weapons and equipment arrived in southwest Shandong. Then under Li Guoyao's order, Zhou Jinlong's troops began to move south to Xuzhou to implement the plan to lure the enemy deeper.

    Although it was said that he was luring the enemy deep into the area, Li Guoyao was still very worried. After all, he was operating deep into the Japanese-occupied area, and the scale was quite large. Once he was bitten by the Japanese army, the consequences would be disastrous, and he might actually be completely annihilated.

    But some people have to do some things. Otherwise, if everyone is giving up, then there will be no hope for this country.

    As a commander, Li Guoyao can sacrifice any unit when necessary, even if it is the only eight field infantry divisions and four cavalry divisions of the Shandong Guerrilla Corps, but Li Guoyao will never sacrifice the three verticals and the independent army unless it is absolutely necessary.  The Qiqi Division regarded him as an abandoned son.

    Night has fallen, and this is another sleepless night.

    For all the officers and soldiers of the Japanese 17th Division stationed in Yanji Town, Xuzhou, today is another boring day!

    Originally, they were ordered to go north to fight with the 12th Army. The goal was to destroy the Chinese army in southwest Shandong and recapture Heze City.

    They were full of confidence before coming, but no one expected that before the battle started, the chaos in Luxi caused the 12th Army to suspend its combat plan, and the 17th Division could only withdraw from the front line.  Come down.

    However, because the officers and soldiers of the 17th Division were wild-tempered and often did things that ignored military discipline, for the sake of the stability of Xuzhou City, the 12th Army Headquarters did not let them enter the city to garrison, but ordered them to stay in the northwest of Xuzhou.  Set up camp in Yanji Town.

    Originally, it was a good thing that there was no need to fight. After all, no one is born to be a cheap person. To have a good life, you have to fight and kill. What's more, once the troops are stationed on the spot, this will not only be good for the soldiers on the front line,  You can take a break and take advantage of the raid to gain some benefits.

    However, when they arrived at Yanji Town, everyone felt bad. They saw that the small Yanji Town was in tatters both inside and outside.  The population was not the 20,000 people mentioned in the newspaper, and everything looked dilapidated.

    That night, the soldiers of the 17th Division inspected the town inside and out, and found that not to mention gold, silver and jewelry, there were not many fair-haired women here.

    So when there was nothing to do these days, the troops of the 17th Division were plundering in squadron units. Because the little devils dispatched a large number of light cavalry and moved quickly, plus the dense population near Xuzhou, it was impossible to survive in a few days.  It really brought a lot of benefits to these little devils.

    But because the little devils were constantly looting, people in the entire Yanji Town area were in panic, and people in many villages fled one after another.

    Many people heard that Xuzhou City was relatively safe, so people headed straight to Xuzhou City with their young and old. Suddenly, refugees were everywhere outside Xuzhou City.

    Lieutenant General Sakai Hoji, the commander-in-chief of the Xuzhou City garrison, was furious after receiving the news. He immediately called Lieutenant General Hirabayashi Morito outside the city and asked them to restrain themselves. After all, Xuzhou is where their 21st Division is based. In the future,  They will be stationed here for a long time, rather than just fighting and leaving like the 17th Division.

    However, Lieutenant General Hirabayashi Morito didn't care about this at all. As Sakai Hoji said, their 17th Division is not stationed in this generation all year round, so naturally they don't care what the nearby Chinese think. The training is over.

    What's more, if the subordinates grab good things outside, they must show their respect to him, the division leader. In just three or four days, he has harvested a small box of gold and silver jewelry, which is worth more than him, a middle-class man.  The annual salary of a general division commander is even more.

    It¡¯s only a few days, if you can keep grabbing it, the benefits will naturally come in a steady stream, and whoever stops him is a fool.

    Because of the explicit or covert support of Hirabayashi Morito, these little devils not only did not restrain themselves, but intensified their efforts.

    However, the music was very sad. Just when the Pinglin Sheng people fantasized the benefits, they suddenly received the bad news from the out -of -the -city troops. A squadron that was plundered was suffering from the ambush loss of the Chinese army.

    According to reports, the one who was attacked this time was the 3rd Squadron of the 1st Battalion of the 45th Regiment. At that time, the troops were mopping up in the Liangzhuang area. Suddenly, a Chinese cavalry force came out. There were about 300 people on the other side.  A slash and kill.

    andAt this time, the soldiers of the 45th Regiment were burning and killing in Zhuangzi, and they did not react at all. By the time they heard the noise and came to their senses, almost all of them had been killed.

    In less than ten minutes, the infantry squadron of more than 150 people in the 45th Regiment was killed. Only a dozen remnants escaped, and the rest were all killed.

    When the news reached the division headquarters, Hirabayashi was furious and immediately ordered the captain of the 45th Regiment to immediately count the troops and rush to Liangzhuang. He was looking forward to revenge without asking for revenge. He must take back the bodies of the soldiers who were broken into pieces and let them  Can leaves fall and return to their roots.

    However, less than an hour after the troops left, they received a telegram from Commander Okazaki Colonel, saying that the troops were ambushed by Japanese soldiers on the road. However, because they were more cautious when marching, the enemy's ambush circle was discovered by the leading soldiers.  , the two sides immediately started a war.

    Now they have defeated each other, and the main force is in pursuit!

    After receiving the telegram, Lieutenant General Hirabayashi Morito immediately ordered the Okazaki Regiment to bite the opponent at all costs and try to wipe out this bold Chinese army.

    Just in case, Hirabayashi Morito, in the name of the division commander, issued an order to the nearby princes to assemble and be ready to reinforce the 45th Regiment at any time.

    Xinzhuang Town, National Army Temporary Headquarters!

    Zhou Jinlong, Zhang Shaolin and others are all here, and the atmosphere in the entire headquarters is pretty good, but it can be seen that everyone is still a little nervous and they are not paying attention to what they say.

    At this moment, a combat staff officer hurried over and said, "Sir, I just received news that the No. 1 Squadron has started fighting with the Japs!"

    "Oh, how is the battle going?" Zhou Jinlong asked hurriedly.

    "The Japs have dispatched more than 3,000 people, which seems to be a complete infantry regiment. The ambush position set up by the first squadron has been discovered by the opponent. Now they are fighting and retreating!"

    "Has the little devil caught up with you?" Zhou Jinlong asked again.

    "They are catching up! Its main force has passed Zhaozhuang and is expected to reach us in one and a half hours!"

    Zhou Jinlong laughed loudly and said: "Just come, just come! Pass my order and all units should prepare for battle. Let's meet these sons of bitches on the road! Act according to the original plan!"

    "yes!"

    Zhou Jinlong, who was in a good mood, said again: "Also, let me tell you brothers, I told them that after this battle is over, I will invite them to drink, and each of them will have a pound of good sweet potatoes, and then I will kill two big fat ones."  Pig, we won¡¯t come back until we get drunk!¡±

    "yes!"

    ?¡­

    At the Zhangzhuang position, Zhou Jinlong's No. 1 Squadron had been dealing with the Japs for more than ten minutes. Since the terrain here was pretty good, and there happened to be a small river passing by, the soldiers of the No. 1 Squadron set up their positions.  They reached Zhangzhuang on the other side of the river and blew up the only small bridge in an attempt to use the small river to block the Japanese army.

    The Japanese commander of the 47th Regiment, Colonel Okazaki, was furious at this time. The pursuit had been going on for almost an hour. Every time he was about to catch up, the opponent would look for a suitable place to block and fire.  It made them furious.

    This time was no exception. They were about to catch up, but they encountered a small river. After the opponent blew up the wooden bridge over the small river, crossing the river became a problem for the troops.

    Fortunately, I tried it just now. The river is not deep or wide, so I can walk across it.

    Angry Colonel Okazaki immediately ordered his troops to suppress the national army on the other side of the river, while sending troops across the river. The two sides started a bloody battle across the river!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
