Tim Tianfu is not stupid, he just tends to ignore some things when he is angry. But just now because he calmed down, he realized that the warrant in his hand was not a life-saving straw, but a life-saving talisman.
Because it was obvious that the brigade commander would not admit that he had failed in his duties and had made a mistake, so there were spies mixed into the headquarters.
So in the end, he still has to bear the blame.
Tian Tianfu was worried about his future, but he didn't want the Dragon Boat Festival to come again at this moment.
Tian Tianfu's anger had nowhere to vent, so he poured it out on Duanwu. Ignoring the obstruction of his adjutant, he sent two squadrons to pursue him.
Of course, Tian Tianfu did not pursue it blindly. He ordered the troops not to stray too far from the road, so that if a battle broke out between the two sides, he could quickly reinforce them.
"Report, the 3rd Air Force Flight Group asked where our enemies are? They couldn't find the exact location because of the smoke everywhere."
At this moment, a Japanese communications soldier came to report.
Tian Tianfu looked around and saw that the smoke was coming from nowhere, and he coughed twice after taking a whiff.
"Baga, this must be the fault of the Dragon Boat Festival again."
Tian Tianfu said angrily, and up to now he has not caught up with the large army in Dragon Boat Festival, and the plane took off without any exchange of fire.
Of course, this does not mean that the little devil is too impatient, but that the Dragon Boat Festival battle has been fought very quickly. If the fire is handed over here, it will be too late to call for air support over there.
What's more, this time, the Japs' bombers were not just here to reinforce the army, but to seize the fighter planes and inflict heavy damage on the Dragon Boat Festival during its retreat.
Matsui Iwane guessed that the Dragon Boat Festival surprise attack on An County must have a purpose. Although the brigade commander of the 26th Brigade had something to hide, Matsui Iwane's scheming character had already smelled it.
In his eyes, Dragon Boat Festival is not an aimless person. Traveling more than 150 kilometers, taking nearly five days to go back and forth, just to call the 116th Regiment in An County? He wouldn't believe this ridiculous statement even if I beat him to death.
Therefore, Matsui Iwane suspected that the Dragon Boat Festival must have other purposes. Moreover, according to the report of the brigade commander of the 26th Brigade, the artillery brigade and an infantry brigade suffered heavy losses due to the lack of precautions in Lai'an County.
Based on this, Matsui Iwane also speculated that the war was imminent and the Chinese army lacked firepower. The Dragon Boat Festival was most likely to use artillery brigade artillery.
In other words, the Dragon Boat Festival traveled more than 150 kilometers just for these cannons. Otherwise, could it be that he traveled so far just to make a surprise attack on a little-known Lai'an County? Unless that Dragon Boat Festival brain is rusty.
Therefore, this flying brigade has another mission, which is to fly along the road to find the artillery that was taken away by the Dragon Boat Festival.
So, when there was no progress on Tian Tianfu's side, the flying brigade whizzed past the head of Tian Tianfu's Japanese army.
Tim Tianfu's adjutant said: "The plane flew away, which is not good for us."
Soeda Fukudao said: "It doesn't matter. Now that Dragon Boat Festival will just run away and let the imperial planes catch up with the cannon trucks and blow up all the cannons that were taken away. Otherwise, that Dragon Boat Festival will definitely use these artillery pieces to deal with us." .Let’s go too!”
After Tian Tianfu said this, he got on the vehicle and the troops continued to leave. Unexpectedly, at this moment, a burst of short and intensive gunfire suddenly came from the direction of the pursuing troops.
Chug tug tug, tug tug tug,
This was not the sound of a Type 38 rifle or a machine gun at all, but the sound of a submachine gun.
Although the sound of gunfire was also mixed with the sound of machine guns and Type 38 rifles, most of it was the sound of submachine guns, and there were several explosions from time to time, which made Tian Tianfu frightened.
"The pursuit force has been attacked. Reinforcements will be sent immediately."
Tian Tianfu roared, and the two teams of Japanese soldiers got out of the car first and rushed to the place where the gunshots were heard for reinforcements.
Of course, the Japs' reinforcements were definitely not just two squads, but the Japs from these two squads were closest to Tian Tianfu, so they went to the scene of the incident first.
But when the Japanese arrived, one of the two pursuing Japanese squadrons no longer existed.
Just as Ma Pingan guessed, the Dragon Boat Festival dug holes for the devils everywhere. The Japanese only saw Duanwu running away with more than a hundred people, but little did he know that there were more than three hundred people in his company.
Seeing that they had the advantage in strength, the Japs pursued them fiercely, but when they reached a slope, Duanwu and the others jumped over and the Japs followed, but at this moment, Duanwu killed them with a single carbine, and the entire company of soldiers relied on them at the same time. The more than 300-meter-long natural trench was aimed at the Japanese who had just emerged from the forest and fired at them.
At that time, the chasing troops of the little devils were divided into two teams, otherwise all the little devils would have to rest after a random shooting.
"Lao Abacus, Lao Ma, you take two platoons and retreat first."
After beating the Japs, Duanwu immediately ordered Ma Ping'an and Lao Abacus to retreat in two directions, leaving the Japs unclear about where he was going.
But Dragon Boat Festival can't leave, Dragon Boat Festival has to hold the little devil here. Moreover, the roar of the plane just came to mind in the direction of the highway. Even if you don't have to guess at Dragon Boat Festival, you know that the little devil has dispatched a plane again this time.
He couldn't let the little devil's plane chase Zhou Weiguo, otherwise the people could run away, but the trucks couldn't.
His most important cannons are there. If they are blown up by the little devil, his trip will be in vain.
So Dragon Boat Festival has to get the little devil's plane back.
Of course, the little devil's plane cannot be at the Dragon Boat Festival's disposal. The old devil he wants to fight, Tian Tianfu, screams for the plane to come back.
"Put the little Japs closer and we'll fight. Our guns have a long range, and the bullets will drift away if they exceed 80 meters."
Duanwu whispered the order, because just now Lao Abacus and Ma Ping'an led the people to retreat. The little devils had already seen it. They would think that the enemies had run away, and then they continued to pursue.
This is the time the Dragon Boat Festival is waiting for.
"I'll give you a brace, give me a shot!"
Duanwu roared and fired first, followed by more than a hundred soldiers, aiming at the Japanese who were stepping on the corpses of their own people and preparing to pursue them, and fired another round.
The little devil was almost crying after being beaten, and thought to himself: Why is there still someone here? Did you run away just now?
But at this time, where do they have time to think so much? More than thirty corpses were left behind, and all of them rolled and crawled back into the woods.
"Shoot, shoot!"
The little devil's officer gave loud orders, and began to greet the Dragon Boat Festival position with long guns and short cannons.
But at this time, Dragon Boat Festival had already retreated, and there was a bunker blocking it. The little devil's bullets either flew over his head or hit the mound.
"Retreat, everyone follow me!"
Dragon Boat Festival gave the order, and the soldiers laughed, because there was still a big hole waiting for the little Japs ahead, because Lao Shou had not run away, he and his men were digging holes for the Japs! .
