Chapter 2107 Breaking the Queen
The sounds of gunfire broke the silence before dawn.

It seemed like just a moment, and the headquarters of the 586th Regiment was brightly lit with many torches.

"Tell me the truth! You said it was Lou Yue who rescued that old bastard?" Under the firelight, Zhao Tieying had already grabbed the collar of the awakened sentry and pulled him up.

"Captain, yes, yes, it was Lou Yue. I just started talking to him when he was hit by a club." The sentry replied hurriedly.

"Are you sure you're not seeing things?" Zhao Tieying still didn't believe it.

But at this time, a subordinate beside him answered for the sentry: "Report to the commander, Lou Yue is not found, and the two people he brought back are also not found!"

Since his subordinates said so, then the matter was confirmed.

"Fuck, this ungrateful bastard!" Zhao Tieying was so angry that he let go of the soldier and threw him to the ground.

Even though he felt his hands were a little sticky at this time, he didn't think about it, but shouted: "Follow the footprints, they can't get far!"

Although he was furious, Zhao Tieying certainly understood that his regiment headquarters was protected by the companies below.

Lou Yue saved Wang Laomao, but firstly, there was no place to get a carriage, and secondly, even if there was a carriage, it would be impossible to drive it on the road, because his company was guarding all the traffic intersections!

In this dark night, it would be worse to walk than to drive a horse-drawn carriage across the uneven fields!

But the carriage can't run away doesn't mean the horse can't run away, so Zhao Tieying shouted again: "Go after them on horseback, go ahead and deliver the message, and intercept them halfway. I don't believe they dare to shoot at us, are they rebelling?"

We are all from Northeast China, so who doesn’t know that footprints will be left on the snow?

The climate in southern Shandong this year is a bit abnormal. In previous years, if it snowed on the first day, the snow would melt within two days.

The dull sound of horse hooves rang out, and it could be heard far away in such a quiet night.

As for Zhao Tieying's regiment, there are no special cavalry.

The situation of their regiment is similar to that of Shang Zhen's camp. They have horses to pull carts and signalmen to deliver messages on horseback. Of course, if the battle requires it, they can also mobilize dozens of people who can ride horses.

And just as Zhao Tieying analyzed, as long as his men ride their horses and follow the footprints on the snow to find the escaped Wang Laomao and the traitor Lou Yue, they don't have to worry about how many people Shang Zhenying sends to pick them up. He can then have his men surround the few remaining people in Shang Zhenying and disarm them!
It can be said that Zhao Tieying’s calculations were absolutely correct, and in fact this was indeed the case.

When the soldiers on horseback ran out of the 586th Regiment Headquarters, Chu Tian and his men who were fleeing in the snow discovered them.

There were cavalry chasing after them, and it was not just the sound of horse hooves. In order to indicate the footprints of Chu Tian and his men's escape, the cavalry on horseback were holding torches!
Chu Tian and his companions looked back and saw from afar, under the light of the torches, three war horses chasing them happily.

Liu Keqiang then said, "What should we do? Shoot the horse?"

Although they had finally made the preparations to go to war with Zhao Tieying's group in order to save Wang Laomao, now that Wang Laomao had been rescued after all, it would be best if they could avoid fighting with their own people.

Liu Keqiang was of course asking Chu Tian when he said this, but before Chu Tian could answer, Da Laoben said, "Who has grenades? Leave two for me. Go!"

After Big Stupid said this, everyone naturally understood.

"I'll stay too!" Hu Zhuzi also shouted.

"Listen to Da Lao Ben or you can go back!" When Qian Chuan'er was yelling, someone stuffed the grenade he brought with him to Da Lao Ben. "Got it!" Hu Zhuzi responded.

Everyone continued to run forward, while Da Laoben ran to the side, and Hu Zhuzi followed him.

How could it be faster for cavalry to catch up with infantry? It only took a moment for the three soldiers on horseback to catch up with them, following the footprints they left on the snow.

"Are you planning to blow them up with grenades?" Hu Zhuzi asked while lying beside Da Laoben.

How could Da Laoben have the time to discuss this with Hu Zhuzi? How could he possibly use grenades to blow up the Northeast Army soldiers? He asked for two grenades, but they would just be used as bricks.

Seeing the three horsemen getting closer, but they only carried one torch, Da Laoben, who had originally planned to knock them off their horses, suddenly had a new idea.

Then he suddenly jumped up from the ground and threw a grenade out with his hand.

Among the three people, there was one at the back who noticed a person suddenly jumping up from the side. As soon as he shouted, the grenade thrown by Big Stupid arrived.

This time, Da Laoben's attack was really accurate and it hit the torch held by the soldier in front!

Needless to say, Big Stupid was so strong that he knocked the torch to the ground with just one blow!

"It's a grenade, run!" shouted the soldier who was already riding his horse at lightning speed.

The big fool knew that the grenade had not been pulled, but the three soldiers didn't. Who would be afraid when they saw the next grenade flying towards them illuminated by the fire?
The three soldiers didn't even bother with the torches on the ground and urged their horses to run forward.

In just a moment, the three horses rushed out dozens of meters.

However, the torch had fallen to the ground. Although it was grease and had fallen onto the snow, it did not go out. However, the height was not high enough and they could not see the footprints ahead of them.

They saw that the grenade did not explode, but then they noticed that the shadow of their cavalry suddenly shook violently.

The three soldiers turned their horses and looked back, only to see this scene: the torch that should have fallen on the snow had been picked up by a tall soldier, who was now throwing it onto the snow.

The light source is shaking violently, so wouldn't the shadow created by the light source also be shaking violently?
When the torch hit the snow, sparks of fire splashed out, and when it hit the second time, a large piece of grease fell off the torch.

"Hey!" the three soldiers shouted.

They all relied on this torch for illumination. After all, the Northeast Army was not the Japanese Army. Now Wang Laomao had been rescued, but there were no flares available.

The three soldiers turned their horses and rushed back, some of them even reaching for their guns, but before they could speed up, they heard someone shouting not far away: "Another grenade is being thrown, pull the string!"

The three soldiers were stunned, but at this time the torch had already been extinguished by the tall soldier!
The torches used by Zhao Tieying's group were also made using primitive methods. The grease was not firmly applied to the wooden sticks and eventually went out.

With the torch extinguished, at least their small area became dark again.

There were spots of light moving rapidly on the road. They were signalmen delivering messages to surrounding companies.

Just a few hundred meters behind the three soldiers, there were also flashing torches, and below them were the officers and soldiers of the 586th Regiment, who were chasing after them following the horseshoe prints.

But this time it will definitely take them some time to catch up with the people in Shang Zhenying.
