    "Eighty percent of them have run away.

    During the last round of attack, there seemed to be not many people still standing in the position.  If it weren't for the enemy's air fire support, we would have knocked down the position at that time.  "

    A Japanese squad leader said.

    The Japanese squadron leader next to him shook his head and said: "No, don't underestimate their willpower. These guys are as stubborn as a group of cockroaches."

    "I'll take people up there to have a look."

    The squad leader said.

    "Go ahead, we'll cover you."

    With that said, the Japanese squadron leader gave him a gesture.

    The Japanese squad leader greeted more than a dozen Japanese soldiers and rushed to the position.

    However, when they slowed down and came to the Eighth Route Army's defensive position on the flanks, they encountered no resistance at all.

    But in the foxholes of the position, they could see many corpses that no one had restrained.

    The Japanese captain turned on the flashlight he carried with him and looked among the corpses to see if there was anyone alive.

    But after searching for a long time, they couldn't find anyone alive.

    "Are they all dead? Or have they all run away?"

    The Japanese squad leader said.

    ¡°Captain, I think it¡¯s better to send a signal to the squadron leader and the others.¡±

    The soldier next to him said.

    "Go."

    "yes!"

    As the soldier spoke, he launched a flare directly into the air.

    Seeing this scene, the Japanese soldiers crawling below the position immediately began to roar and charged towards the Eighth Route Army's position.

    They boarded the position, and with the help of the light of the flares, they clearly saw the extremely tragic scene.

    These Japanese soldiers walked between the corpses and even forgot to use their rifles to touch up the corpses to determine if there was someone inside pretending to be dead.

    "They are all dead."

    The Japanese squad leader said.

    The Japanese squadron leader who rushed up with his troops nodded and said, "I saw it. Find the bodies of our soldiers."

    ¡°Where are their bodies?¡±

    The squad leader asked.

    "Leave it here, someone will come and restrain it in the future."

    As the Japanese squadron leader was talking, he heard a sudden loud noise not far away.

    They subconsciously fell to the ground and did not dare to move.

    After a while, after the aftermath of the explosion, they heard screams coming from behind the smoke.

    Seven or eight Japanese soldiers were killed and wounded by grenades carried by the two wounded Eighth Route Army soldiers while carrying them.

    At this time, the Japanese soldiers who had not yet been killed were screaming.

    The Japanese squadron leader stood up and saw the situation over there.

    "Are these guys all crazy?"

    He growled lowly.

    At this time, on the frontal defensive position, Japanese soldiers also rushed to the defensive positions of the First and Second Regiments of the Eighth Route Army with the help of the light of flares.

    However, here, they only saw a lot of abandoned ammunition boxes and bullet casings scattered on the ground, and no trace of the enemy could be found at all.

    Seeing such a scene, the Japanese soldiers who rushed to the Eighth Route Army position did not know whether they were worried or happy. They just stood there for a long time and then, at the urging of their superiors, began to search the battlefield.

    "Boom!"

    There were loud noises. Before Bai Yaowen left, the mines and bombs buried in the position were detonated one after another by the Japanese army. The loud noises made the originally peaceful night once again become noisy.

    Seeing such a scene, Kuroyama Jiro decisively ordered the infantry troops to temporarily retreat, and instead used mortars to carry out covering bombing of the enemy's positions.

    Through the explosion of mortar shells, the mines and bombs buried in the enemy's position will be detonated.

    Not only that, Jiro Kuroyama also ordered the Japanese troops in the rear to immediately prepare to march overnight and continue to break out in the predetermined direction.

    More than 40,000 Japanese troops began to rush through the first direction of the Eighth Route Army in the dark and headed towards the old course of the Yellow River.

    In a village fifty kilometers away from this area, Xia Yang was listening to the report.

      ¡°The strength of two regiments of the Eighth Route Army, plus the strength of some guerrillas, blocked the fierce attack of 50,000 Japanese troops for more than six hours.

    Now they have withdrawn from their position, leaving an opening for the Japanese army, allowing them to enter the pocket formation we set up in advance.

    At the same time, the armored and cavalry units were already making a large-scale detour towards the Japanese army's flanks and rear.

    If nothing else happens, we can launch a fierce attack on this Japanese army at noon tomorrow.  "

    After saying this, the staff officer put together the information.

    Xia Yang nodded, put the cigarette butt in his hand on the edge of the table, dusted off the ashes, and said, "What's the casualty situation on the Eighth Route Army side?"

    The staff officer said: "The strength of the two regiments, plus the guerrillas they call the county brigade and the district squad.

    In total, there are about 4,600 people.

    Although the Japanese troops they faced were bombed by our air force and blocked and harassed by troops along the way, they lost some troops.

    In total, there are nearly 50,000 people.  More than ten times their number.

    By the time they withdrew from their position, the number of casualties had been calculated, and the number of casualties was approximately 2,800.  "

    Hearing this number, Xia Yang sighed and said: "Go and contact the Eighth Route Army troops. Their wounded can be transported to the hospitals behind for treatment through our trucks and transport planes.

    If there is a shortage of medicines and medical staff, you can report it to us in time and we will try our best to provide them.  "

    "yes!!"

    The staff officer said immediately.

    At this time, Hu San, who was standing next to him, said: "Although the equipment of this group of Eighth Route Army troops is a little poor, when they start fighting, they really fight hard."

    "Indeed, otherwise, how could they have completed the 25,000-mile Long March?"

    "When will the general offensive begin?"

    Hu San asked at this time.

    "Let's wait until all the troops are in place. This battle has been going on for such a long time, so there is no need to worry about it for a while."

    Xia Yang said.

    "yes!!"

    The Japanese breakout troops advanced more than ten kilometers before stopping to rest.

    They rested for about four hours in the second half of the night. When dawn came, the Japanese army would continue to break through.

    They were running day and night, just to seize the last trace of life.

    However, this Japanese army did not know that their slightest hope of life had actually been completely cut off long ago.

    At this time, these Japanese soldiers were running crazily just for a delusion that only existed in their hearts.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
