Shanmen Town is located fifty miles northeast of Dongkou City. Zhang Xian led the 169th Regiment after a night of rapid march. At dawn, they had arrived in the mountainous area near Shanmen. Before they could get there, they heard a sound coming from the north. With the sound of fierce fighting, everyone became more and more excited. It was obvious that the 11th Division was still fighting the enemy.
However, the sound of gunfire became increasingly sparse, and the sounds became closer and closer.
Lei Ting and Yu Changle walked to Zhang Xian. The sound of Japanese gunfire was completely different from that of the National Army. Lei Ting said to Zhang Xian: "Zhang Xian, I think the Japanese are retreating!"
Yu Changle also said: "Yes, listening to this sound, the Japanese seem to be coming towards us!"
Zhang Xian nodded and told them: "I think so too, but Xiong Sanwa hasn't come back yet, and I don't know how their reconnaissance is going."
Lei Lei suggested: "Should we make preparations first? If the Japanese really have to retreat towards us, we can just surround them and annihilate them."
Yu Changle said, "Everyone has been running around all night. Not to mention them, even I am exhausted. I think it is better to take a rest here and wait for Xiong Sanwa and others to come back from reconnaissance to take a look at the situation ahead. Make your decision again!¡±
Zhang Xian thought for a moment, nodded, and said: "You are right, we don't know what the situation ahead is like yet. We can rest here first and make a decision after we find out the situation ahead!"
At that moment, an order was sent out, ordering the whole regiment to rest in the woods on a hillside. At the same time, a guard post was sent out to patrol around, just in case.
In just half an hour, Xiong Sanwa had already run back with several of his brothers. He came to Zhang Xian at the lead and said breathlessly: "Brother, there is an enemy!"
Zhang Xian and the staff immediately stood up: "Don't panic, make it clear!"
Xiong Sanwa took a sip of the water handed over by Yu Changle, and then said: "We were ordered to contact the 11th Division, but before we arrived at Shanmen Town, we saw a large group of Japanese soldiers rushing out from the edge of the town. That group of Japanese soldiers was composed of mules, horses, and cars, with over a thousand people in total, and it was probably an enemy's baggage team."
"Where are the brothers from the 11th Division? Aren't they chasing after them?" Zhang Xian frowned.
Xiong Sanwa shook his head: "I didn't see anyone from the 11th Division. They might still be fighting on the other side of the town. I heard there were still gunfire going on over there."
Zhang Xian, Lei Lei, and Yu Changle looked at each other. Before he could speak, Lei Lei said first: "Then the Japanese must be escaping!"
Zhang Xian also nodded and asked Xiong Sanwa: "You didn't find the 11th Division, why did you come back?"
Xiong Sanwa quickly explained: "I have sent two scouts to bypass the enemies and go to the north of Shanmen Town to look for the 11th Division. I saw this group of Japanese coming towards our direction, and I was afraid that they would collide with us. Yes, that¡¯s why I hurried back to report the news.¡±
"How far are they from us now?" Yu Changle asked quickly.
Xiong Sanwa said: "Their vanguard is already very close, only separated by a mountain!"
Zhang Xian was startled for a moment, then immediately regained his energy, and said to Lei Lei and Yu Changle: "It seems that we are going to have a tough battle!" After saying that, he immediately sent an order, and all combat units of the 169th Regiment gathered together. Take action and arrange it as quickly as possible. At the same time, Zhang Xian once again ordered Xiong Sanwa to step up contact with the 11th Division, asking him to arrive with the 11th Division when the 169th Regiment blocked the enemy's path and eliminate all the enemies.
Xiong Sanwa took the order and left, but Yu Changle said with some worry: "With the strength of our regiment, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stop these thousands of enemies. Then we are afraid that the 11th Division will not be able to catch up and let the enemies escape. It doesn¡¯t matter, I¡¯m just afraid that the Japanese¡¯s backup troops will arrive and our regiment will be flanked by them!¡±
Lei Lei did not take it seriously and said with a smile: "You are less than a coward. At this time, the Japanese must be running for their lives, so why bother to attack us? I suggest that a battalion be placed directly in the middle of the road at the mountain pass to block them. The way to go!"
Yu Changle said: "This is not good. I think it is better to be conservative and set up firepower points on the high ground on both sides of the road. As long as it can effectively kill the Japanese, it is not appropriate to force them to counterattack. This will increase our casualties!"
Zhang Xian thought for a while and said: "I think we should fight according to Brother Lei's opinion. At this time, if we continue to look forward and backward, I'm afraid we will let this enemy escape. We can't imitate Ma Su who guards the street pavilion. ah!"
Seeing that Zhang Xian said the same thing, Yu Changle did not insist anymore.
***A loud charge bugle sounded behind the Japs. It was the 32nd Regiment of the 11th Division that had arrived and attacked the Japs from behind.
Hearing the charge horn of the friendly forces, Zhang Xian also ordered his bugler to blow the charge horn. This was the final battle. The soldiers of the 169th Regiment rushed down from the mountains on both sides like tigers descending the mountain. , the Japanese didn't even have a position, they fled towards the middle of the road one after another, but they had nowhere to escape. Some simply raised their guns and raised white flags.
Zhang Xian held up the telescope and saw that Battalion Commander Mei Zhanyuan had rushed into the core of the enemy like a cunning wolf. These enemies had lost their fighting spirit and raised the white flag. Battalion Commander Mei rushed forward with the soldiers of the national army. He saw Battalion Commander Mei first beating the surrendered Japanese in front of him until his teeth were all over the place. Then he saw one of his soldiers holding a gun butt. After hitting a Japanese soldier on the head, the Japanese soldier immediately fell to the ground and covered his head. There may have been blood there.
Zhang Xian put down the telescope and couldn't help but frown. His soldiers were already as strong as wolves and tigers at this time, but they were a little too much for these disarmed Japanese prisoners. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
