Xia Yang stood up, returned a military salute to him and said, "How is the loss of the troops?"
Wei Xing said: "The losses were not big, but those little devils were as crazy as a pack of dogs and kept charging towards our position from the woods."
Xia Yang thought for a while, and then said: "Wei Xing, did you just say that the Japs retreated? Where did they retreat to?"
Wei Xing said: "They started to retreat half an hour ago, and they should be on the road now."
"Gather the troops immediately and bite them hard on the butt! You little devil, you took advantage of us and want to leave so gracefully. It's not that easy." Xia Yang said viciously and started to gather people. Troops of the Fourth Brigade.
At this time, the people in the security company have also returned. They were entangled by a Japanese squadron for a whole afternoon. After wiping out nearly half of the squadron's troops, they escaped unscathed.
Xia Yang was very satisfied with the performance of the guard company led by Hu San. After all, this was an absolutely elite force that he had personally cultivated.
The fourth brigade quickly completed its assembly. Lin Shaowei of the 178th Division also wanted his troops to follow Xia Yang to launch a sneak attack on the retreating Japanese army.
But Xia Yang declined him politely. At this time, the 178th Division had just experienced a great battle, with more than 2,000 casualties, which was quite tragic.
If it weren¡¯t for the fact that the Japs¡¯ artillery was eliminated by Xia Yang, it is estimated that the entire 178th Division would have been on that stretch of road.
In addition, Xia Yang really couldn't believe in the combat effectiveness of the 178th Division.
During this sneak attack on the Japanese army, Xia Yang did not think about how much damage he would cause to the Japanese army. The most important thing was to disgust them. Even if they retreat, they will not be able to survive.
If you are lucky, you might be able to seize a lot of things.
"The troops have been assembled! Please give instructions!" He Changxing said loudly.
Xia Yang looked at the assembled troops and said loudly: "Send a company of soldiers to transfer the more seriously injured to Dr. Anna Robert's medical team for emergency treatment. Those with less serious injuries will retreat with the 178th Division. To safety."
After saying this, he took two thousand men capable of fighting and chased in the direction of the Japanese retreat.
It was already late at night, but this did not prevent them from pursuing the Japanese army.
Relying on infrared night vision devices and night vision telescopes, it is not very difficult for Xia Yang to find traces of the Japanese army.
After the battle, the Japanese Tenth Brigade moved eastward along the outskirts of Jiaxiang County.
They want to meet with the main force of the division there, then march towards the Jinpu Railway, and then attack Tengxian County along the Jinpu Railway.
Nagase was sitting on the sidecar motorcycle, his expression not very good.
In the fields outside Jiaxiang County, Japanese troops lined up in long columns, like a group of ghosts moving silently under the dark night.
A whole day of fighting made them very tired. As they walked, they ate military rations.
"How far is it?" Nagase asked the person next to him, "How far are we from the main force of the division?"
The person sitting next to him looked at the map, and then replied: "Reporting to your Excellency, the brigade commander, there are still less than ten kilometers. In another two hours, we should be able to arrive."
Hearing this, Nagase nodded, his men need to rest now.
At this moment, a burst of intense gunfire and explosions came from behind them.
"What's going on? Where to shoot?" Nagase asked loudly.
Because the queue was too long, he was in the middle of the queue and could not see what was going on behind him.
And it was night at this time, so even the telescope in his hand was completely useless at this time. He could only look past the crowd and see the fire caused by the explosion over there.
"Get ready for battle!" Nagase shouted loudly. "Defensive formation!!"
Because we don¡¯t know what¡¯s going to happen next, the safest thing is to let our troops immediately enter a defensive posture. Wait until you understand what is going on, and then decide how to fight back.
About five minutes later, a communications soldier ran over and said to Nagase: "Your Excellency, brigade commander, the rear of our team suffered a fierce attack from the enemy."
"How many are there?" Nagase asked.
The soldier said: "Judging from the enemy's firepower, their number is at least four to five thousand. TheirThe attack was very fierce, and our two teams at the back were wiped out by them almost in the blink of an eye. Now two squadrons of our army are resisting their attack, asking for support! "
"Four to five thousand people? Did the 178th Division come back again? But where did they get so many people?" Nagase was confused, but at this time he had to make a judgment.
With almost no hesitation, he immediately said: "Send two brigades immediately to support the rear! At the same time, the mortar squadron is ready for battle and provides fire support to the rear troops at any time."
As soon as the order was given, two large groups of troops rushed towards their rear from both wings.
Wei Xing, who was ambushing the Japanese army on the flank, yawned widely and stared at the field not far away.
According to Xia Yang's judgment, this should be one of the Japanese support routes. When the time comes, they will block the Japanese army here and attack the Japanese support troops from the flanks. As long as the Japanese support troops are frightened and they can't figure out the reality of the fourth brigade, this army will have to choose to cut off its arms.
In the woods on the other side, Qiu Guoping's independent regiment was also ready to fight.
In the woods shrouded in darkness, Maxim heavy machine guns and light machine guns were already aimed at the path that the Japanese army must pass not far away.
Sure enough, in less than ten minutes, the two Japanese brigades began to rush towards the rear, trying to support the two Japanese squadrons trapped there.
But as they were running on the road, the Independent Regiment and the Second Regiment on the flank began to fire.
"Brothers, kill them!" Wei Xing roared, and the heavy machine guns deployed in the woods began to fire wildly at the Japanese troops.
The trees hit by machine gun bullets began to slowly fall down, making bursts of extremely noisy sounds.
The Japanese troops running on the road had almost no cover, so they were shot down in large numbers in the blink of an eye. They immediately dropped to the ground and began firing into the woods on their flanks.
They must be very familiar with such a scene.
During the day, they also ambushed the 178th Division in this way. They ambush them in the woods on both sides of the road. The ferocious bullets, like fire whips, hit the Chinese troops hard.
Now, they were ambushed and surrounded. Facing the ambush on both sides of the woods, they fell into a huge panic.
It was dark at this time, and they had no way of judging how many people were ambushing them on both sides of the woods.
But judging from the enemy's firepower, there were at least three thousand people ambushing them. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
