Looking at the contents of the telegram, Li Qiufan's face became increasingly ugly.
It turned out that Li Yunlong got hit again and again, leading his troops directly into the hinterland of the area occupied by the Japanese.
When he went deep alone, he was immediately entangled by the Japs from the two brigades.
Now Li Yunlong's troops can't get away at all, and the Japanese soldiers around are still adding reinforcements. Their intention is very obvious, they want to eat Li Yunlong's troops.
Li Yunlong didn't take it seriously at first, but by the time he found out it was already too late. The Japanese from the two brigade groups had him bitten. He had no choice but to send a telegram to Li Qiufan.
"Heizi, gather the troops and set off immediately to support Li Yunlong!"
Li Qiufan held the telegram in his hand and shouted at Heizi.
"Qiu Fan, what's wrong?"
After Heizi left, Tian Yu stepped forward and asked.
"It's okay. I'm going to take my troops to reinforce the friendly forces. Just stay in the county with Lao Zhao."
Li Qiufan shook his head and did not tell the truth. He planned to leave Zhao Gang to lead people to guard the county seat, while he led the troops to reinforce.
"I want to go too! I'm a medic!"
Hearing that Li Qiufan wanted to keep him, Tian Yu gave up and shouted to Li Qiufan with his head raised.
"I am the division commander! This is an order!"
Li Qiufan did not back down, he said seriously to Tian Yu, then turned and left.
Looking at Li Qiufan's back, Tian Yu stamped his feet angrily, but he had no choice. Who made Li Qiufan the teacher?
By the time Li Qiufan arrived, Heizi had already assembled his troops, and everyone was waiting for Li Qiufan.
"Qiu Fan, what's going on? I heard something happened to Li Yunlong?"
Zhao Gang came to Li Qiufan and asked with a frown.
"It's too late to say more, Lao Zhao, I'll leave the guard regiment behind, and you can lead the guard regiment to guard the county."
"Besides, I am staying with Tian Yu, please take care of her more."
The situation on Li Yunlong's side was urgent. Li Qiufan did not dare to waste too much time. After explaining a few words, he set off with his troops.
On the other side, Li Yunlong's situation was not good at this time. He was forced to a small slope by two Japanese brigades.
Thanks to the advantage of the terrain, the casualties of his troops were not so serious, but it was not easy either.
"Da Biao! Zhang Da Biao!"
Li Yunlong stood in the trench and shouted loudly, the folds on his face wrinkled into a chrysanthemum.
"Brigadier, I'm here!"
Zhang Dabiao heard Li Yunlong's voice and ran over quickly and said to Li Yunlong.
"Da Biao, have you sent the telegram to Qiu Fan?"
Li Yunlong looked back at Zhang Dabiao, wondering if Li Qiufan had received his request for help.
"It has been sent out, and we have also received a call back. Commander Li has already brought his team to support us."
Zhang Dabiao nodded and reported to Li Yunlonghui.
"It will take Qiu Fan and the others over ten hours at the fastest. During this time we can only rely on ourselves."
"You bastard little devil, you still want to set a trap for me even when you are about to die. You deserve to die!"
Li Yunlong first sighed with emotion, then looked at the Japanese who were organizing an attack on the opposite side and cursed angrily.
Regardless of whether he could hold out until Li Qiufan arrived this time, even if he repelled the Japanese, Li Yunlong had made a mistake.
For such a large-scale troop mobilization by the Japanese, the headquarters would definitely investigate the intention, and might already know that Li Yunlong was surrounded.
Even if the Japs from these two brigades were killed this time, the consequences for Li Yunlong would probably not be too good. After all, this was the boss's plan, but he missed the mark at this critical moment.
The headquarters is indeed investigating the Japanese's intention to mobilize troops. They have intercepted telegrams and dispatched troops for investigation. They have used all available methods. It is estimated that it will not take long before they know that Li Yunlong is surrounded.
"Da Biao, tell the brothers to cheer up. If they survive this time, I will personally apologize to them!"
Li Yunlong, who had anticipated the consequences, was filled with pride at the moment. He no longer cared about the punishment his boss would give him. He just wanted to keep his troops and hold on until Li Qiufan arrived.
On the other side, Li Qiufan, who was marching in a hurry, was very anxious, but he had no choice. He couldn't fly the actual distance.
"Heizi! You continue marching with the troops, and I will rush over first with the cavalry regiment and artillery regiment!"
After thinking about it again and again, Li Qiufan decided to take these two troops to support him first, even if it was only artillery support, it could help Li Yunlong relieve the pressure.
After all, in more than ten hours, he still didn't know how many Japanese reinforcements would come through, and he was really afraid that Li Yunlong wouldn't be able to handle it.
"Brother, let me go. You can continue marching with the troops. Leave this matter to me!"
When Heizi heard that Li Qiufan wanted to go to support him first, he immediately stopped him.
Although both units are mobile units with high flexibility, there are still certain dangers due to the small number of troops.
"Stop arguing, let the reconnaissance battalion of the first brigade follow you, just ride in the artillery regiment's car, and take as many people as you can!"
Li Qiufan waved his hand and rejected Heizi, not because of his heroism, but because Heizi was not familiar with artillery.
He was good at letting Heizi lead the charge into battle, but when it came to commanding the artillery and surveying the terrain, he was still far behind.
Soon, the reconnaissance battalion of the first brigade came over, and they all got into the artillery regiment's car.
Li Qiufan, on the other hand, was riding a horse, leading the cavalry regiment to scout and clear the way ahead, galloping towards Li Yunlong's direction.
The headquarters had already figured out what was going on. They also knew that Li Yunlong's troops were surrounded by Japanese soldiers, and the angry boss yelled.
"Li Yunlong is such a brat. He dares to take such a big action away from me. Let's see if I don't skin him after the battle is over!"
The boss became more and more angry as he talked. He took the teapot on the table and threw it heavily to the ground.
"Boss, what happened has already happened. There's no point in getting angry. We'd better find a way to rescue Li Yunlong first!"
Looking at the angry boss, the teacher comforted him.
"Humph, I'm really pissed off!"
The boss snorted coldly, then looked at the telegraph operator: "Send a report to Li Qiufan's independent division immediately and ask him to report their location!"
After venting his anger, the boss asked the telegraph operator to send a telegram to Li Qiufan, preparing to ask Li Qiufan to rescue Li Yunlong.
The radio station on the Independent Division did not follow Li Qiufan first, but was here on Heizi.
Heizi immediately felt numb after seeing the telegram from the headquarters, because Li Qiufan told him before leaving that if the headquarters sent a telegram, he would not be allowed to reply.
Heizi was a little confused and immediately asked Li Qiufan the reason, but Li Qiufan didn't tell him and just asked him to do it.
But it's one thing to agree, and it's another thing to actually see the telegram.
After a while of ideological struggle, Heizi decided to listen to Li Qiufan and not call the headquarters back.
At the headquarters, no reply was received after sending a telegram to Li Qiufan, which made the boss a little confused.
