There is insufficient bullets, and there is no place to supplement the Dragon Boat Festival for the time being, so only the cavalry can use some Type 38 rifles.

The Type 38 rifle is too long and is not suitable for cavalry combat. However, it also has one advantage, that is, its recoil is low and suitable for the body shape of orientals.

Of course, the most important thing is that there are no other guns nowadays, and even if they are not easy to use, they have to be used.

The Dragon Boat Festival asked Shangguan Zhibiao to find seven or eight machine guns to supplement the firepower of the Cavalry Battalion, and then boarded the horse on the Dragon Boat Festival and took the Cavalry Battalion back to Bengbu again.

More than fifty kilometers, if you walk, it is possible to take five hours, six hours, or even ten hours.

Because the troops marched not only as easy as walking with two legs, but also the baggage troops and even artillery soldiers followed.

Therefore, if the troops march, if they are not marching in a hurry, and are light and simple, their speed will generally not be very fast.

But the cavalry is different. The cavalry has horses to travel for transportation. Although it cannot be exaggerated to travel for one thousand nights a day. However, it only takes about two hours to return to Bengbu on the Dragon Boat Festival. After three hours, he can arrive near Liutaizi Village and launch a raid on the Japanese army.

Of course, Dragon Boat Festival will not face the Japanese with the tough steel. As long as people are saved, he will retreat immediately.

Before leaving, the Dragon Boat Festival asked Shangguan Zhibiao to send a telegram to the Fifth War Zone Command. The first was to tell Li Zhongren that the 10th Japanese Regiment had been wiped out. The right wing of the Japanese Huainan area of ​​the Japanese was almost destroyed.

The second is that Tang Jiujiu is in Liutaizi Village.

The Dragon Boat Festival didn't say much about this, because Li Zhongren is not a fool, so he doesn't need to explain so much to smart people. He guessed that Li Zhongren should know what he should do.

But the Dragon Boat Festival did not know that the 31st Army had already shown a decline under the fierce attack of the 9th Division of the Japanese and 114th Division, and its defense line was shrinking by one-third more than one-third.

The commander of the 31st Army was preparing to converge the defense line to Shou County, Huainan and Changfeng areas, and concentrate the troops to defend.

Li Zhongren was also preparing to reinforce him, because once the 31st Army retreated across the board, the 51st Army would really become an isolated army.

However, at this moment, the Dragon Boat Festival called. Of course, before that, he had received a message from Liutaizi Village and knew that Tang Jiujiu was in Liutaizi Village.

But his reply was just to order Lao Aba Pan to organize troops and immediately escort Tang Jiujiu to evacuate.

Because at this time, troops were being used everywhere, and there were already two armies in Bengbu. If troops were sent up, Xuzhou would be empty, how would it deal with the battle on the northern front? The Second Japanese Army was coming in full force, and Han Fuju was lying on the verge of disobedience again.

If it weren't for Dragon Boat Festival holding a cannon ball hanging him, he would have withdrawn from Jinan long ago.

But even so, Han Fuju sent three telegrams for help a day. So Li Zhongren was really worried that he would be approved by the Dragon Boat Festival, and Han Fuju would withdraw his troops from Jinan without authorization.

Once Jinan falls, he must mobilize troops to block the Japanese in Zaozhuang and Taierzhuang areas. Otherwise, the Japanese will march straight into and take Xuzhou directly. Then this battle of Xuzhou that he has been preparing for for three months will no longer exist.

But at this time, Dragon Boat Festival sent another telegram, which forced him to think carefully.

The 10th Japanese Regiment was completely wiped out, which would be a turning point in the Battle of Huainan.

He obtained news from the intelligence department that in addition to a regiment of troops detours from the 31st Army, the 10th Regiment of the 10th Division of the Japanese Army was most likely to intersperse eastward and then join the 26th Brigade of the Japanese Army to prepare for the Dragon Boat Festival team in Bengbu.

Li Zhongren originally thought that this time, Dragon Boat Festival would suffer a great loss. He was planning to notify the Dragon Boat Festival of the matter, but he did not expect that the Dragon Boat Festival would kill from Bengbu to Laoyeling overnight and wipe out the 10th Japanese Regiment.

Without the 10th Regiment, the 26th Brigade of the Japanese Army would not be as good as the weather. After all, the 26th Brigade of the Japanese Army had already suffered heavy damage before the Battle of Huainan began.

The enemy on the Eastern Front was cut off one arm, which means that the turning point of this battle has emerged.

Of course, the most important thing is that Tang Jiujiu did not leave in Liutaizi Village for unknown reasons, otherwise the Dragon Boat Festival would not have sent a second telegram.

Dragon Boat Festival is reminding him that if Tang Jiujiu has any casualties, even you, Li Zhongren, will have to bear the chairman's thunderous anger.

Li Zhongren thought for a while and felt that there was no need to offend the Chairman in such a thing. What's more, the situation on the southern front had already changed, and it was time for him to use his troops.

Li Zhongren sent a telegram to the 125th Division of the 22nd Army fully supported Liutaizi Village and rescued Miss Tang Jiujiu.

The 125th Division of the 22nd Army, the commander of the division is Chen Dingxun, and is under the jurisdiction of the 373rd Brigade, the 375th Brigade, and a 136th Mixed Brigade.

The predecessor of this mixed brigade was actually a shelter. When Sichuan Army left Sichuan and fought against the war, many of its troops were dispersed. Many Sichuan Army had nowhere to go, and no troops were willing to take them in. So Chen Dingxun, the commander of the 125th Division, was ordered to form such a shelter.

After that, the scale of the shelter continued to expand, and finally reached nearly a regiment of troops. So the prototype of the 136th Brigade was formed, and later it even drew from the main force to form such an extra-staff combat sequence.

The brigade commander of the 136th Brigade was Lu Jian, who was doing the final finishing work with the Independent Regiment at Laoyeling and wiped out the 10th Japanese Regiment.

Of course, the news of Lu Jian's battle had been passed back long ago.

Lu Jian had always had contact with the division headquarters and informed the division headquarters that the Dragon Boat Festival commissioner was just like the rumor, not only generous but also approachable. As soon as the 136th Brigade arrived in Liutaizi Village, he distributed a company of pure German equipment. After several battles, although the troops suffered casualties, almost all the brigade was replaced with Japanese equipment.

Lu Jian also told the division commander Chen Dingxun that the Japanese's Type 38 rifle is easy to use.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Whenever Chen Bingxun saw the telegram sent by Lu Jian, he would laugh from ear to ear. Because when did their Sichuan Army be treated so well?

So at this time, when he received a telegram from Li Zhongren, Chen Bingxun immediately ordered the entire division to move to Liutaizi Village in Bengbu.

The reconnaissance force was ahead, with enough troops to carry light weapons and go to support. It is necessary to rescue the wife of the Dragon Boat Festival Special Forces - Miss Tang Jiujiu.

The 125th Division was dispatched in full, but at this time, the battle situation in Liutaizi Village was not optimistic.

Because as expected from Dragon Boat Festival, although the baggage force is brave, its overall combat effectiveness is average.

In fact, most of them were people who were removed from the combat troops from the Dragon Boat Festival. Some of them were wounded soldiers, but although they recovered from injuries, they were disabled and could not enter the front-line troops. And they were unwilling to retire, so they were assigned to the baggage battalion.

Others are the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, older, younger, or with some diseases.

They were unwilling to leave the troops, and there was no reason to abandon them.

Moreover, the baggage battalion has trucks, and even some soldiers with disabled legs can follow the troops with ease.

But these people still have a patriotic heart. They yearn for the battlefield and for being able to kill a few more Japanese with their own hands.

It happened that the Japanese came and the main force was not here, and it was the time for them to go into battle to kill the enemy.

However, the Japanese were not weak. Although they only had one small team of troops, they broke through the positions of more than 30 people outside Liutaizi Village to block the team in just over ten minutes.

The soldiers died bravely. The moment the Japanese broke through the defense line, they detonated the explosives tied to their bodies, and died with the Japanese who jumped into the position.

The explosion was very fierce. More than a dozen Japanese were swallowed up by the explosion in an instant, and none of them survived. And more than twenty Japanese who were charging behind were blown away, and the smoke and soil rising from the position once reached more than twenty meters high.
