Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang took the remaining 140 to 50 soldiers and went directly to support the village entrance.

Due to the distance, Kong Jie and the others took the lead in encountering the little Japanese on the side, and the two teams collided with each other.

A fierce exchange of fire began. In order to complete the task as soon as possible, Yamamoto Kazuki organized several charges.

But without exception, they were all blocked by Kong Jie. After all, Kong Jie had sixty or seventy people on his side, and each of them was equipped with an M1 Garand rifle.

Although it can't compare to the Japs' submachine guns in terms of firepower, it is much stronger than ordinary rifles, sixty or seventy M1 Garand rifles.

If they shoot together, with the ability to fire continuously, the more than 20 little devils they have beaten will not be able to hold their heads up at all.

The firepower suppression was very strong. Every time Yamamoto Kazuki organized a charge, Kong Jie used strong firepower to suppress it.

Similarly, these little devils are no longer vegetarians. With the American-made submachine guns in their hands, their firepower is also quite good.

The soldiers on Kong Jie's side could not move forward any further. Kong Jie was very happy to see this situation.

Their purpose is to block these little devils. There is no need to charge against them, as long as they can block the footsteps of these little devils.

Then Kong Jie's mission is completed. On the other hand, the little devils are very anxious because they have to fight quickly.

The longer the time drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for them. This time they are deep into the hinterland of the Eighth Route Army and are in an isolated and helpless state.

Once they are surrounded by the Eighth Route Army, their strength may be eaten up by the Eighth Route Army before reinforcements arrive.

In this way, the two sides fell into a stalemate for a while, and no one could do anything to the other. Seeing that it was impossible to continue like this.

At this time, a little devil next to Yamamoto Kazuki said.

"Sir, the Eighth Route Army on the other side has too many people, at least several times our number, and their weapons and equipment seem to have been changed."

"Compared to last time, their fire suppression this time was much stronger, and the situation was very unfavorable to us."

Looking at the battle situation in front of him, Yamamoto Kazuki felt uncomfortable. He knew very well that judging from the current situation.

If we delay for a while, let alone completing the mission, they might not even be able to evacuate. Thinking of this, Yamamoto Kazuki said very decisively.

"Withdraw! The intelligence is wrong. There is not only one guard platoon in Yangcun, but the Eighth Route Army has also replaced it with a batch of more advanced weapons."

"Retreat first. When we return, we will report this information to General Shinozuka and investigate the origin of these weapons first."

"Hayi!"

It has to be said that Yamamoto Kazuki was very decisive. Seeing that the situation was not good for him, he directly ordered a retreat without any hesitation.

In this way, under the order of Yamamoto Kazuki, all these little devils retreated, and Kong Jie and others on the other side noticed the retreat of the little devils.

"Deputy commander, the group of little devils on the opposite side seem to be silent. Have they retreated?"

Upon hearing this, Kong Jie immediately ordered the soldiers around him.

"Stop shooting, don't even shoot."

When everyone heard this order, they immediately stopped what they were doing. When the gunfire stopped, Kong Jie found that there was no gunfire from the other side.

If nothing else goes wrong, this group of little devils should have retreated, but just in case, Kong Jie ordered the two soldiers beside him.

"You two go and take a look in front to make sure the little Japs have really withdrawn. Remember to be careful."

"Yes! Deputy leader."

After receiving the order, the two men immediately moved forward cautiously.

A few minutes later, the voices of the two soldiers were heard from the other side.

"Report to the deputy commander, we only found the bodies of a few little Japs here. As for the other little Japs, we haven't seen them. They must have retreated."

When Kong Jie heard this, he immediately led the rest of the soldiers there. As expected, there were only a few corpses of little devils on the ground.

There was nothing else. It seemed that the little devil had really retreated. At this time, a soldier beside him asked.

"Deputy commander, do you want to take advantage of the victory and pursue it?"

In this regard, Kong Jie shook his head without hesitation.

"It's not necessary. It's night now and everyone has limited mobility. If we pursue them, we will easily be beaten back by these little devils."

"This group of little devils is different from what we usually encounter, so just repel them."

Having said this, Kong Jie spoke to a platoon leader next to him.

"You take your troops and continue to guard here to prevent the little Japs from coming back. The battle at the entrance of the village is not over yet. I will go and reinforce the regiment leader."

"Yes! Deputy leader."

Under Kong Jie's arrangement, one platoon of troops was left here, and the rest followed Kong Jie to the entrance of the village.

Relying on his familiarity with Yangcun, Kong Jie quickly came to Li Yunlong's side.

Li Yunlong was also very surprised when he saw Kong Jie.

"Old Kong, why are you here? Aren't you blocking those little devils from the side?"

"Old Li, those little Japs have retreated, but in order to prevent them from trying to counterattack again, I left a platoon of troops there."

"Then I will bring the remaining soldiers to support you. I see that the fighting at the entrance of your village is more intense. It seems that there are quite a few little Japs."

Speaking of this, Li Yunlong's face turned gloomy instantly, and he said in a deep voice.

"There aren't many little Japs at the entrance of the village, only fifty or sixty at most, but their firepower is so fierce that we, the hundred or so of them, can't even lift our heads."

"If we hadn't taken advantage of the terrain, we might not have been able to stop them. These little devils are really evil and their fighting power is very strong."

"I, Li Yunlong, have been dealing with little devils for so many years, and this is the first time I have encountered such a little devil. No. 50 or 60 people have fired at least a company's firepower."

This made Li Yunlong very depressed. There were only fifty or sixty little devils, but their firepower was so powerful.

If the number of people on their side was not more than three times that of the little devils, they might not be able to stop these little devils.

At this moment, Zhang Dabiao came to Li Yunlong to report.

"Report to the leader, it seems that these little devils at the entrance of the village have retreated."

"Oh? Are you sure?"

"It's very possible, because the gunshots at the entrance of the village are getting quieter, but to prevent it from being a conspiracy by the little devils."
