Chapter 483 Poking the 3rd Brigade in the ass!
Datong.

The battle is over.

In the middle of the night last night, Sun Ming led a company of guards pretending to be a food delivery team, and occupied the southern city wall of Datong.

Then, Chu Yunfei led the main force of the 358th regiment to attack all the way, and it took just over an hour to break into Datong City.

After street fighting in the middle of the night, the main force of the 358 regiment occupied most of the urban area of ​​Datong.

But the devil's combat effectiveness is also very strong, occupying the city wall and defending it, and the 358th regiment will definitely be able to occupy the entire city if they continue to fight.

However, Chu Yunfei's goal had already been achieved, and it was not his goal to regain Datong. He just set his sights on the food, weapons and ammunition in Datong City and other combat supplies and property.

If there is definite information that the 3rd Brigade was killed by the Eighth Route Army, then Chu Yunfei will definitely take the opportunity to regain Datong.

Now the arsenal, grain depot, and devil gendarmerie headquarters in Datong have been occupied by the 358 regiment, and the strategic goal has been achieved.

Standing on the south wall, Chu Yunfei held up the binoculars to observe the situation at the north wall.

Holding a telegram in his hand, Fang Ligong hurriedly stepped on the stone ladder to climb up the city wall, walked quickly to Chu Yunfei, and said, "Report to the group, the situation has changed!"

Chu Yunfei had a winning expression on his face. He glanced at Fang Ligong and put down the binoculars: "Brother Ligong, why panic, the sky won't fall."

Fang Ligong said conveniently: "Tuan Zuo, this is a telegram just sent by the Chief's Department. The commander of the 36th Division of the Japanese Army, Jing Guanren, has been killed by the Xinyi Regiment, and the main force of the 36th Division has also been killed. If the Xinyi regiment is killed, the Japanese 3rd Brigade will probably give up reinforcements and return to Datong, and the chief department ordered us to evacuate immediately."

"What? Jing Guanren died? The main force of the 36th Division was wiped out. How is this possible?" Chu Yunfei was startled.

He took the telegram from Fang Ligong's hand, and after reading the content of the telegram, his pupils shrank slightly and his face changed.

The 36th Division is so unbeaten?
Is the fighting power of the new regiment so strong?
After all, the 36th Division is the second-line division of the Japanese army. Although it is not fully staffed, the battle will not end so soon, right?

Chu Yunfei couldn't figure out whether the fighting power of the new regiment was too strong, or the fighting power of the 36th Division of the Japanese Army was too weak.

Chu Yunfei estimated that the battle between the Eighth Route Army and the 36th Division would take at least four days.

But in less than two days since the start of the war, the lieutenant general and the main force of the 2th Division were wiped out, which is outrageous.

Fang Ligong said in a deep voice: "Tuan, the Japanese 3rd Brigade is probably already on its way back to Datong, we have to evacuate as soon as possible."

Chu Yunfei nodded: "Order the brothers to speed up. I will confiscate all the properties of the bank, hospital, and traitor, and take them away immediately."

If there was enough time, Chu Yunfei would still have to order the food and belongings of the vendors to be searched, but there is no time for that now.

In the eyes of the officers of the national army, these traders are obedient citizens of the devil, and doing business is to help the devil's economy. Naturally, they cannot be easily forgiven. Searching for food and property is just a basic practice, and Chu Yunfei is no exception.

The Eighth Route Army is different from the national army. After the Eighth Route Army takes down the county, the traitors will definitely clean it up, but the things of the common people will not be moved.

"Yes!" Fang Ligong turned and left.

At this time, the transport team of the 358th regiment and the soldiers of the third battalion were transporting food, weapons and ammunition out.

The mule carts of the 358th regiment's transportation team transported food, weapons and ammunition out one after another.

The mule carts all use rubber tires and rolling bearings. A mule cart can carry 2000 jin of goods, but because of long-distance transportation, each mule cart can only pull more than 1000 jin.

The transportation team of the 358th regiment is relatively complete. Every one or two months, it will transport food, ammunition and other materials from Luliang Mountain to the station of the 358th regiment through the defense area of ​​Kong Jie.

Following Fang Ligong's order, the transportation team and the first battalion of the 358th regiment accelerated the speed of food transportation.

At noon, the 358th regiment came south along the Tongpu Railway with the collected food, ammunition and property.

When leaving, Chu Yunfei also ordered the use of mortars to blow up the two wounded Devil planes parked at Datong Airport.

Less than half an hour after leaving Datong, a reconnaissance cavalry in charge of the rear caught up and saluted Chu Yunfei and reported: "Reporting to the commander, the enemy is catching up!"

"How many enemy devils are there?" Chu Yunfei asked, the devils and puppet soldiers in Datong City were beaten to less than 400 people, how dare they catch up?

The scout cavalry said: "There are nearly 600 devils, including a squadron of devil cavalry, and the puppet army has about a thousand people."

Chu Yunfei's face darkened slightly: "Where are there so many devils? The devils and puppet troops from several counties around Datong have arrived?"

Fang Ligong said: "Regiment seat, it should be the reinforcements of the devils. There have been Japanese cavalry operating in the border area between Inner Mongolia and Shanxi. The devil cavalry in this squadron should be the troops of the Japanese army stationed in Mongolia."

"Our transportation team and the brothers of the first battalion, carrying the seized food, ammunition and other supplies, can't move fast at all. It's only a matter of time before they are caught up by the devils and puppet troops."

"Most of the 3rd Brigade is also rushing to Datong. If there is trouble, our 358th Brigade will be made dumplings by the devil."

"Tuan Zuo, why don't we give up the capture and go back to the station along the path."

Each mule cart weighed more than 1000 catties, and there were more than 200 carts, nearly 40 catties of grain, and more than 1000 guns and more than 40 rounds of ammunition snatched from the devils.

Mule carts can only take the road or the bridle path. The key is that the only road going south is the Tongpu Highway, and there is no bridle path.

However, how could Chu Yunfei give up the materials that were finally seized so easily.

Outwitting Datong this time was one of the few accomplishments in Chu Yunfei's military career. If he didn't bring anything back, it would be a failure.

"What are you panicking about?" Chu Yunfei said calmly, "The 3rd Brigade may continue to reinforce Heyuan County, and may not return to Taiyuan."

Fang Ligong wanted to persuade him again, but Chu Yunfei gave an order: "Pass my order, the transport team and the first battalion will speed up, and the second battalion and the third battalion will alternately cover and retreat. I don't believe it. There are less than 1000 enemies here How can I win the 358 regiment?"

At that moment, Chu Yunfei turned his horse's head and led the second and third battalions to stop the devils and puppet troops who were chasing up.

At the same time, Qian Bojun took the first battalion escort transport team and accelerated the speed.

Although the transportation team has sped up its speed, after all, it is carrying hundreds of thousands of catties of supplies, and it is not much faster, that is, the normal walking speed, which takes only 10 minutes to walk one kilometer.

Therefore, Chu Yunfei led the second battalion and the third battalion to block the attack while covering the retreat of the transport team.

The combat effectiveness of the puppet army was not good enough, and the devils' troops were not many, and the only cavalry squadron with strong mobility did not dare to charge up.

Therefore, the devils and puppet troops mainly focused on harassment, and the 358th regiment did not dare to really attack, but deliberately set up an ambush, and the devils and puppet troops were not fooled.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the 358th regiment left Datong for about 20 kilometers.

It was at this time that the 3rd Brigade met with the first battalion and transport team of the 358th Regiment on the Tongpu Highway.

First, the scouts of the two troops encountered each other, and then there was an exchange of fire. The devil's large army swooped towards the first battalion and transport team of the 358th regiment as if smelling blood.

The first battalion commander of the 358th Regiment was Qian Bojun. When he saw the large army of devils rushing up, he gave up the supplies and ran away within 5 minutes.

You can't run away.

At least two brigades of devil infantry rushed over all over the mountains and plains, feeling full of oppression. Although Qian Bojun's battalion had more than 2 people, their combat effectiveness was incomparable to that of devils.

Qian Bojun ran up to Chu Yunfei in a panicked tone, "Boss, it's not good, the 3rd Brigade has returned, and the strength is enough for a regiment!"

The faces of Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong sank at the same time.

They both knew that the 3rd Brigade of the Japanese Army not only had a wing, but also a mountain artillery brigade equipped with 12 75mm mountain artillery.

"Tuan Zuo, get out!" Fang Ligong suggested.

At this time, the commander of the Second Battalion rushed to report, and all the devils and puppet soldiers who were biting behind their buttocks pressed up.

As soon as the second battalion commander's voice fell, there was loud gunfire from the front and rear, and the 358th regiment fell into a situation surrounded by devils and puppet troops.

"It's too late to retreat at this time."

Chu Yunfei took out his Browning pistol, glanced at the battalion commanders, and said in a concentrated voice: "At this point, there is only one way to fight the blood. The devil wants to eat my 358th regiment, and he still lacks a pair of good teeth. Datong is only 20 kilometers away, so gather the strength of the whole group to defeat the more than 1000 devils and puppet troops behind us in one fell swoop, and we will go to Datong City to stand firm and wait for help."

Chu Yunfei still had something, and he found a way to revitalize the 358 regiment in a short while.

There is an artillery brigade and an infantry wing of the 3rd Brigade ahead, and the 358th regiment will definitely not be able to rush through.

The devils and puppet troops in the rear are weak, and it is not difficult for the 358 regiment to gather the strength of the whole regiment to defeat these devils and puppet troops.

As long as the 358 regiment re-occupied Datong and stood by for help, Li Yunlong would definitely lead his troops to rescue after learning of the situation.

"Tuan Zuo!" Qian Bojun said anxiously, "Going back to Datong is a dead end, there will be no reinforcements coming!"

In his heart, Qian Bojun was already somewhat dissatisfied with Chu Yunfei. If Chu Yunfei was not too greedy and reluctant to part with those supplies, how could the 358th regiment be surrounded by devils?
Chu Yunfei snorted coldly: "If I say yes, there will be. Prepare to fight!"

……

at the same time.

It is 358 kilometers away from the battle area between the Japanese army and the 4 regiment.

The scouting cavalry of the new regiment rode their horses from the side of the road. When they arrived in front of Li Yunlong's jeep, the cavalry yanked the reins, the horse neighed under its crotch, its front hooves were raised high, and the jeep also stopped on the side of the road.

"Reporting to the regiment commander!" The scouting cavalry soldier saluted Li Yunlong with a slap, "4 kilometers away from the front, we found that the devils were exchanging fire with the Jinsui army."

Li Yunlong got out of the car and listened carefully. Sure enough, he heard the dense sound of guns and artillery.

"Haha, it's better to come early than to come at a good time." Li Yunlong was immediately happy. "Pass my order, the cavalry will lead the way, and the infantry will be behind. Let's stab the 3rd Brigade in the ass!"
