    Chapter 562 Snow Battle

    The encounter with a large group of Japanese troops in the heavy snowstorm put this team of only a thousand people into an extremely dangerous situation. What's more terrible is that Tang Qiuli, the number one figure in the Japanese division,  Also here.

    Looking at Tang Qiuli who was silent and looking straight ahead, Shanhu was so anxious that he almost jumped up. His first thought was to let a detachment of soldiers protect the division commander, Mei Ting and the division headquarters.  The personnel immediately retreated and reached a safe place first. He led all the soldiers of the guard brigade to cover.

    However, when the method was told, Tang Qiuli did not make any answer. Shan Hu was sweating on his forehead in anxiety. According to the soldiers' reports, the number of Japanese troops encountered this time was at least ten thousand. God, it was  Even if someone tramples on them, more than a thousand people like me can be trampled into meat pies.

    The number one figure in the division is here, and he has a huge responsibility. However, Xiaoqiu still doesn't seem to be in a hurry. He is really anxious. He is about to order a few soldiers to forcibly lead the division commander and others to evacuate. One soldier is covered in blood.  He galloped over covered in blood, his horse's hooves splashing white snow, like soaring clouds and mist.

    When he got close, he dismounted and reported neatly: "Division Commander, Brigade Captain, the Japanese troops are coming in a steady stream along the road. It is estimated that there are tens of thousands of people. The strange thing is that the Japanese troops don't seem to want to tangle with us. They only send cavalry troops and  We fought, and the brigade continued to drive along the road towards Xiangyuan. The troops asked for instructions? "

    Needless to say, looking at the blood on this soldier's body, one can imagine the intensity of the battle. After hearing what the soldier said, Tang Qiuli's eyes lit up and he asked, "Is the judgment of the Japanese army's strength accurate?" The soldier was sure.  's nodded.

    Tang Qiuli understood that the mountain pass did not take the route from Wuxiang to Yushe, but took the route from Licheng. What a cunning guy, give me a "clearly built plank road to cross Chencang secretly", he put it on the route from Wuxiang to Yushe  The three regiments between She and She were completely decoys. Thanks to the heavy snow and God's will, his troops still stayed in the area around Lucheng to Licheng.

    He said to Shan Hu: "Huzi, order the troops to withdraw, get away from the threat of the Japanese brigade, and set up a headquarters nearby." The order was passed on, but the troops could not retreat. About two brigade-sized Japanese cavalry took six  More than a hundred soldiers from the guard brigade were entangled tightly, and the battlefield was filled with sounds of killing.

    Then, a strange phenomenon happened. On the road leading to Xiangyuan, a large group of Japanese troops surged southward like a rolling tide. They were only three or four kilometers away from them. Large groups of cavalry were fighting against each other. Their sabers clashed with each other.  The horses' hooves splashed up thick snow and were blown away by the strong wind. From time to time, cavalrymen screamed and fell down from their horses. The Japanese infantry seemed to turn a blind eye and not hear, and just hurried on.

    The more than 600 soldiers of the guard brigade are all the elite of the ** division. Facing more than 2,000 Japanese cavalry, they did not fall behind at all. The soldiers worked in groups of three, covering each other to form attack arrows.  , although many soldiers were covered in blood and suffered many injuries, and their military uniforms were torn by sharp sabers, but none of them were cut under the horses. Those who fell were all Japanese cavalry.

    However, it was not easy for them to break out of the Japanese cavalry encirclement. Tang Qiuli frowned. If he retreated at this time, it would be neither dangerous nor easy. However, the more than 600 people who lived with him day and night  Soldiers, how many of them can come back?

    He said to Shan Hu: "Huzi, let a detachment of soldiers protect the division and direct the personnel to evacuate. The rest of the troops will immediately attack the Japanese cavalry and rescue the surrounded soldiers." Shan Hu took the order and left.  Call the director of the communications department, Chen Feng, and dictate a few orders. First, Tang Qiusheng's troops stranded in Lucheng should immediately move forward to the front lines of Wuyang and Changlong to establish blocking positions and must block the Japanese troops under Yamaguchi for eight hours.

    Second, troops from the three brigades of the Niangziguan Garrison Corps that had arrived in Zuohui passed through Wangjiayu and Xiying to the Xindian area, blocking the retreat route of the Japanese troops under Yamakou. Third, Sun Zhenbang's troops from the Yellow River Defense Corps in Licheng  Troops from four brigades, commanded by Chief of Staff Wang Dongshan (acting commander) of the Yellow River and Henan Defense Line garrison, immediately assembled from Licheng towards Wuyang, responsible for attacking the right flank of the Japanese army at Yamaguchi.

    4. The Ma Chaoyang Department of the Second Army Brigade in the Qinyuan area and the Jiang Yanming Department of the Huangyadong Guard Brigade assembled in the direction of Xiadian via Zhangdian and Yuwu. They were responsible for attacking the left flank of the Japanese army at Yamaguchi and Liu Chun's 1st Cavalry Brigade.  , making strategic maneuvers on the Xiangyuan front line, ready to chase and annihilate the fleeing Japanese troops at any time.

    5. Tong Batu¡¯s Second Cavalry Brigade continues to implement the original plan and must annihilate all Japanese troops from Wuxiang to Yushe. All participating troops must arrive at the designated position within six hours, and the total attack time is set to one  It¡¯s five o¡¯clock sharp in the morning on the 4th of the month.

    After recording the telegram, Chen Feng was about to order the radio station to send it, but Tang Qiu?? He grabbed him and didn't worry about it for a moment. He waited until a safe place before sending the report. Chen Feng smiled sheepishly. Bullets were flying around him. It would be terrible if the radio station was damaged.

    Seeing a group of soldiers protecting the division commander and leaving quickly, Tang Qiuli breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and stamped his feet angrily. Mei Ting did not follow the division commander to evacuate, and she didn't know where to get a submachine gun.  He was sitting on the snow, loading bullets into the magazine.

    Tang Qiuli ordered the soldiers around him to protect him and sent ten people to immediately protect Director Mei and catch up with the teacher to guide the evacuees. Regardless of Mei Ting's repeated protests, he picked her up and put her on the horse. Mei Ting didn't want to leave at all.  But seeing her husband blowing his beard and staring with a fierce look on his face, he knew there was no chance, pouted, and reluctantly left. He kept looking back frequently to send Mei Ting away. Tang Qiuli felt relaxed and took off the clothes.  Tang Longqiang, loaded with bullets, flew forward, and rushed forward with the guards around him.

    The guards had long received strict orders from Captain Shan Hu and would never allow the division commander to take any more risky actions, especially on the front line. Several soldiers of the special guard tightly held the reins of his horse and held Tang Qiuli away.  Angrily, they threatened, "This is the division commander's order. Be careful about your confinement." It was no use. Let alone confinement, even if they were shot, they would not let go.

    While they were in a stalemate, Shanhu Pegasus came over with a lot of blood spattered on his body. He was holding a big knife in his left hand, which was exactly the sword used by Battle, and a heavy machine gun in his right hand. The snowflakes melted when they fell on it. It was obvious that he had just participated.  After the fierce battle, this look made Tang Qiuli envious.

    When Shan Hu saw Tang Qiuli, he was stunned for a moment, and then shouted angrily: "The special guards are for free? Why hasn't the division commander left yet?" Several soldiers looked at each other, God, are you still leaving?  If we hadn't tried our best to stop him, we would have been fighting by now.

    Just now, Shan Hu led the rest of the soldiers and rushed into the Japanese encirclement like a gust of wind. Shan Hu took the lead, slashing with swords and guns, and just opened a gap in the Japanese cavalry encirclement, and rescued more than 600 surrounded soldiers.  , what made him quite gratified was that although almost all the soldiers were injured, and a dozen of them were seriously injured, no one was left in the encirclement. This showed the elite and good fighting skills of the soldiers in the guard brigade.  , and Shan Hu¡¯s usual rigorous training was not in vain.

    Although the soldiers rushed out, the Japanese cavalry still held on. Seeing a large group of Japanese cavalry coming up, Shan Hu ordered the troops to cover alternately and retreat one by one. He did not worry too much and relied on his own training.  More than 1,500 soldiers came out, and a regiment of Japanese cavalry wanted to eat them. The little devil didn't have such good teeth.

    The worst case scenario is taking them all over the Taihang Mountains in circles, and it¡¯s not certain who will eat whom in the end?  Of course, his thoughts were all based on the safe evacuation of the division commanders. However, the person who should be evacuated the most not only did not leave, but also went into battle to fight. Isn't this annoying?

    Shan Hu was so angry that he couldn't speak. Looking at him shaking his head repeatedly, Tang Qiuli looked innocent. As a soldier, is it a serious mistake to go into battle to kill the enemy?  When Shan Hu heard this, he almost lost his temper. Boss, it is true that you are a soldier, but your worth is different. If something goes wrong, the big guy will have to eat me. If the little devil knows that Tang  Qiu Li is here, and tens of thousands of Japs promise not to go there. They swarm around us and we can't leave even if we want to. Did you see that a regiment of Japs cavalry is still clinging to us?

    The troops could only fight and retreat, gradually moving away from the Japanese army. They fought for a whole afternoon. Although they killed many Japanese cavalry along the way, Tang Qiuli also designed several small-scale counterattacks, but they still could not get rid of the Japanese army.  The cavalry's pursuit reached an ancient village that had been abandoned for some time in the evening. After the troops entered, they immediately blocked the gate of the village, seized the commanding heights, and used fierce firepower to block the Japanese pursuers from outside the village.

    The sky was completely dark. A regiment of Japanese cavalry surrounded the ancient village like an iron barrel. They did not attack immediately. They were obviously waiting for daybreak. In order to prevent the surrounded Chinese troops from breaking out and escaping in the darkness, the Japanese troops surrounded the village.  Piles of bonfires were gathered around, and the black muzzles of guns were pointed at the stockade.

    In a half-collapsed room, Tang Qiuli used the firelight to open the map and found where he was now. This was a place called Baihu Kiln, about dozens of kilometers away from the preset battlefield Xia Dian.  I don¡¯t know where the name Baihu Kiln comes from. Judging from its scale, it is a fairly large-scale cottage. It must have been abandoned for seven or eight years.

    The reason why Tang Qiuli chose this place as a stronghold was because he had no choice but to fight all the way. The troops suffered many injuries. If they were not rescued in time, their lives would be in danger. Furthermore, the Japanese cavalry horses had great strength and endurance, both in terms of foot strength and endurance.  , they have to surpass the war horses of their own troops, and they can't outrun them.?.

    He could only use the terrain to deal with the Japs. Fortunately, the supplies, ammunition and medicines carried by the troops were enough to last for a few days. He didn't understand why this Japanese cavalry was pursuing them so closely?  Is there any special reason?
