Yu Chenglong felt that the suggestion put forward by Squadron Leader Wu Tianyu at this time was very useful, so he approved his request immediately and told him to make rescuing the large troops to break through the encirclement the first priority.
"Brothers, follow me and try your best to rescue the master and his wife!"
Wu Tianyu shouted, took off his coat and threw it aside, threw down the extra items, and rushed out like arrows with the death squad of thirty people, with the momentum of swallowing up mountains and rivers.
When Yu Chenglong and others arrived later, squadron leader Wu Tianyu had already exchanged fire with the Japanese and was desperately rushing into the Japanese encirclement, but more than half of the personnel had been killed or injured.
Yu Chenglong quickly led his men into battle to cover reinforcements. At the same time, the encircled large forces also discovered that Jackie Chan was leading the team to relieve the siege, and they also concentrated their efforts to break out in this direction.
The brutality of the battle and the tragic fighting made the world tremble with fear! The two sides were entangled in a close-range fight, while the brothers of the Anti-Union Manbei Corps were completely at a disadvantage.
The besieged team scattered halfway up the mountain, desperately resisting the Japanese, and defended the headquarters leaders at the foot of the mountain to the death. But it was still difficult to stop the crazy killing of the Japanese, and they fell down one by one with grief, anger and stubbornness.
The brothers at the foot of the mountain swarmed the corps agencies and tried their best to break out in the direction of Yu Chenglong and others, but they could not escape the brutal attacks of the Japanese. Many people fell in the gunfire.
These extremely vicious and temporarily powerful Japanese devils had no intention of forcing them to surrender or capture them alive. They only committed cruel and crazy killings!
Even the wounded soldiers who fell to the ground were not spared, killing them with guns or bayonets! Even the corpse had to be shot and stabbed several times, which was extremely cruel!
The Anti-Alliance Manbei Corps is facing the danger of annihilation! In the increasingly shrinking encirclement of the enemy, the brothers resisted desperately, hoping to allow the leaders of the Anti-Union Manbei Corps to break out.
The battle was still going on fiercely, and the fight for breakout and counter-breakout was in a stalemate for a while, because the arrival of Yu Jackie Chan's team temporarily changed the battlefield situation.
Perhaps the Japanese did not expect that a team would come for reinforcements. Coupled with the desperate attacks from the teams on both sides, the Japanese's resistance gradually weakened. The iron barrel-like encirclement was finally forcibly broken through. Wu Tianyu, who was covered with scars, took the lead in rushing in.
Just when they were about to rendezvous with the large army, Wu Tianyu was suddenly hit by a Japanese sniper. He was stunned and slowly fell down unwillingly.
A brother ran over and picked up Wu Tianyu, but it was no longer possible. This bearded man went to his heaven with his eyes wide open!
Yu Chenglong ordered the team to continue to expand the gap opened to prevent the Japanese from encircling them again. He personally led people into the enemy's encirclement to rescue the large army.
"Quickly, retreat with the headquarters first, and I'll cover you from behind!"
Captain Hai Qing, who was rushing to the front with a machine gun in his hand, shouted that he was the one who led the people to rush over to join Yu Chenglong, but he didn't want to rush out first.
This steely man with a beard, a fierce general in the resistance team, was covered in blood, and his sleeves and one trouser leg were blown away.
Before they could get close to Yu Chenglong, he asked the headquarters personnel to follow Yu Chenglong and the others to retreat. He then staggered back with his people and engaged in an even more brutal fight.
After Yu Chenglong rescued the head of the headquarters and the remaining troops, he quickly evacuated. Behind him, there were tragic shouts of death from the brothers responsible for protecting him!
Thanks to these soldiers who were accustomed to running on mountain roads, the Japanese did not catch up, but they still pursued them, although Captain Hai Qing and the others tried their best to stop them behind.
After statistics, more than 130 people including Jackie Chan's brigade had escaped, and almost all the remaining brothers had died in the battle.
Commanders such as General Political Commissar Qin Gang, Commander-in-Chief Fang Tianzhu, Chief of General Staff Yang Furen, Captain Xiao Dongxue of the Third Brigade, Deputy Captain Hua Yanrong, Political Commissar and Deputy Captain Yu Chenglong successfully broke through, but the whereabouts of other commanders are unknown.
In particular, Director Xunyang, Captain Hai, Captain Shi and others who were responsible for covering the retreat and breakout were estimated to have died heroically on the battlefield!
How miserable! More than 450 hungry brothers died tragically in battle. Some injured soldiers were carried to death with the Japanese, and many more were stabbed to death by Japanese bayonets.
No one was taken as a prisoner, and what was left behind were stubborn and scarred corpses all over the mountains and plains, lying in disorder in the mountains with dead trees and grass!
The headquarters is in front, with Jackie Chan behind. The team retreated almost without knowing the direction, with the purpose of getting rid of the Japanese pursuit as soon as possible.
But it was also very difficult. The Japanese spent a lot of money this time. Although they suffered heavy casualties and were exhausted, they still pursued them and pushed the Anti-Alliance Manbei Corps out of the mountains.
"I don't think it's okay to run like this. The Japanese seem to have set up a larger encirclement. If we continue to run like this, it will still be difficult to escape the pursuit of the little Japanese.
The Japs following us purposely drove us to a place where there would be an ambush so that we could fall into a trap again. This was very dangerous.
The little devil has a radio station and can be contacted and mobilized at any time. It is difficult for us to break out. Now we have to find a good way! "
Chief of General Staff Yang Furen was very tired, and his voice sounded desolate. The same goes for most of the people in the team, who can no longer run.
The sun was about to set, and the team stopped on a relatively flat mountain ridge. It was time to take a rest, otherwise everyone would be dragged down.
The tired soldiers took out the little food they had and mixed it with wild mushrooms, small berries, wild vegetable leaves, even tree bark and grass roots that had not yet spoiled, and put them together to cook porridge.
A dozen or so people were lying around, and they didn't have much energy to cook anymore, so they moved slowly, and they didn't finish the porridge for a long time.
'Everyone, hurry up, we have to hurry! 'Yu Chenglong ran from behind, arranging sentries while running to fight with the head of the headquarters.
"Why are the little Japs following so closely this time? I can't get rid of them. Is there a spy within us who has left a road sign for the Japs? From now on, be on guard."
Captain Xiao Dongxue reminded Commander Fang Tianzhu, but Commander Fang Tianzhu was also panting at this time. He looked up into the distance and shook his head, saying it was impossible.
"I guess it's unlikely. This time it's not a large group of people chasing him, but a lot of search teams, following him one after another, and not letting go.
Besides, most of our retreat routes are easier to follow, and the general direction is relatively clear. The Japanese can easily detect it, and it is easier to chase them.
I think we need to change direction and retreat diagonally into the mountains to the northwest. But you still have to be on guard against spies, and make careful arrangements when taking action. "
Commander-in-Chief Fang Tianzhu did not speak loudly, but he seemed to agree with Chief of General Staff Yang Furen and felt that the current retreat route should be changed.
