"Boom! Boom! Boom..." With the roar of artillery, the Japanese troops shouted and launched a charge towards Lu Xingrong's position! Thousands of Japanese troops surged up like a tide, and the momentum was overwhelming!

"Thud, tug, tug..." The heavy machine guns of the 52nd Division and the Japanese army kept roaring, trying to provide more fire cover for their own soldiers. One after another, Japanese soldiers were hit by the heavy machine guns and fell tragically.

Soldiers of the 52nd Division were constantly hit by stray bullets from Japanese heavy machine guns, but neither side retreated at all! They roared and fired bullets from the barrels of their guns at each other!

After a while, the Japanese troops who rushed to the position were fighting with the soldiers of the 52nd Division!

Ren Dehai did not stick to the position in Xingxing Village. After driving off the latest Japanese charge, he led his troops to abandon the position and come here to join Lu Xingrong.

In his words, either everyone withdraws together! Or the division commander withdraws him to defend the position! In any case, even if he is asked to let Dehai be a deserter and be beaten to death, he cannot do it!

Lu Xingrong learned that Red was coming to support him, and he acquiesced in Ren Dehai's approach. Of course, this was all because of the tiger who had never been masked. If it weren't for the tiger, he would never believe that Red would come to support him.

But since that tiger said it, he, Lu Xingrong, believed it unconditionally. That tiger was willing to launch a war against North Korea because of the Japanese invasion of Minjiang River. There was no need for him to deceive himself.

At this moment, the Japanese army and the 52nd Division on the position were already massacred!

This kind of fighting is no longer unfamiliar to both sides. The rifles with bayonets in the hands of the soldiers of the 52nd Division have long been replaced by various cold weapons. The Japanese bayonets that rushed up were obviously at a disadvantage.

But the small number of people was the biggest weakness of the 52nd Division. They had to form a sword and gun formation to face the Japanese army. This formation was temporarily passed down by a veteran in the 52nd Division.

This formation is very simple to say, that is, in a group of three or four, one person holds the Japanese bayonet while the next person directly kills them! The last person is responsible for resisting the attack from the rear.

After learning from his ancestors, he never thought that this cold weapon formation would be used in the hot weapon era, but sometimes things do go beyond people's expectations, and the battle will eventually turn into a hand-to-hand battle between soldiers from both sides.

So, this formation was actually used! With this formation, it was able to temporarily withstand the Japanese attack. What I don’t know about this old trick is that this formation originated from the famous anti-Japanese general of the Ming Dynasty——

Qi Jiguang!

What he learned was a simplified version of the famous Yuanyang Formation! The prototype of the Yuanyang Formation was a group of 11 people. It mostly used shields and spears and was suitable for cold weapon combat. Speaking of which, the Yuanyang Formation was actually the first type of battle group.

The military organization model is also the first appearance of modular troops.

However, this kind of modularization is extremely targeted. The main players in the formation, such as Changpai and Tengdun, are specially used to deal with cold weapons, bows, arrows and spears.

When this formation was passed into the hands of this veteran, it had already been improved by the Hongmen who fought against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty. In fact, almost all kinds of boxing, martial arts and Hongmen in Fujian and Guangdong have indescribable differences.

Unknown relationship.

Hongmen, whose mission was to fight against the Qing Dynasty, naturally faced encirclement and suppression by Qing troops, policemen, etc. Therefore, after a series of improvements, this formation became specially used for three or two people to deal with groups.

A formation used for fighting, retreating, covering and street melee.

These Hongmen elders who created this formation probably did not expect that this mandarin duck formation originated from Qi Jiguang would appear on the anti-Japanese battlefield again! Moreover, this combined melee method was so suitable for dealing with Japanese hand-to-hand combat!

Although assisted by the Yuanyang Formation, the 52nd Division suffered considerable losses. During the shouting and fighting, soldiers of the 52nd Division were stabbed to death by the Japanese.

The Japanese army was not feeling well either. The formation of the 52nd Division was like a hedgehog in a circle - the thorns all over its body made it difficult to eat. Moreover, their small formations seemed to be connected with each other. Once you wanted to separate and defeat them, you would

Find yourself immediately under siege!

The two sides were fighting in a melee. The Japanese heavy machine guns and grenade launchers were difficult to support, so they could only watch helplessly. However, as the number of Japanese troops gradually poured into the position, this situation was being broken.

"Kill the enemy!!" Lu Xingrong waved his sword and chopped up a Japanese soldier with a "click!" and roared at the few soldiers of the 52nd Division left on the position!

"Hahaha... I will be able to fight and die for my country in my whole life! Good luck! Good luck!!" Even though Lao Lu is not young now, he was also an old gangster back then! How can he get to the top in the village without any skills?

?!

But he saw the big knife in Lao Lu's hand roaring into the wind, deflecting several bayonets that were stabbed at him! He roared with red eyes and slashed back, directly cutting off the forearm of one Japanese soldier and the throat of another Japanese soldier!

Lu Wenshan, the seemingly gentle adjutant, was also unambiguous. He followed Lu Xingrong with a spear! Every time the spear moved, several Japanese soldiers screamed and fell down!

He guarded Lu Xingrong vigilantly, constantly knocking over the Japanese soldiers who were trying to kill him! Or pushing away the bayonets that were coming towards him! Ren Dehai was beside him. Together with Lu Wenshan and Lu Xingrong, they formed a small circle.

Formation!

At this time, the battle has entered a fever pitch! Fewer and fewer soldiers of the 52nd Division can continue to fight, although these soldiers fought bravely against the Japanese army and even used the Yuanyang Formation.

But after all, their numbers are too small, and they have gone through a long war! Lu Xingrong couldn't help but smile sadly when he saw this situation, is it finally here?! I, a descendant of Minjiang, and our 52nd Division will be buried here...

"Hahaha... How can such a battle be without me, Ye Xiping?!" A thunderclap sounded beside Lu Xingrong! Lu Xingrong suddenly became a little distracted. He turned around and saw a group of cavalry going "Rong~Rong~Rong..."

..." suddenly burst out amidst the sound of horse hooves!

And the one at the front, Lu Xingrong knew! This was Ye Xiping, the leader of Fujian Red wanted by the Nanjing government and Lu Xingrong! For a time, various flavors spread in Lu Xingrong's heart.

But this cavalry did not stop. They passed directly over the cavalry swords in the hands of the soldiers of the 52nd Division and suddenly swung them towards the Japanese troops who were fighting the 52nd Division!

The number of this cavalry was not large, no more than a hundred at most. But after the cavalry attacked, Lu Xingrong's eyes couldn't help but open wide! Thousands of people roared and rushed out from behind the cavalry!

Seeing the fresh troops surging from all over the mountains and plains, the Japanese army couldn't help but lose their courage! And the guns in their hands couldn't help but loosen a little. When the commander of the battle saw this, he could only sigh and order the troops to withdraw!

The 52nd Division did not pursue it, and they had no way to pursue it. The prolonged battle during this period exhausted the entire 52nd Division's energy. And they knew that this was just a temporary retreat of the Japanese army that was not sure.

The Japanese army's rear formation was not in chaos. The hard pursuit must have been hit by the Japanese heavy machine guns and artillery!

Ye Xiping and the others did not pursue them either. They knew what kind of strength the Japanese troops had behind them. Pursuing them would be the same as sending them to death.

"Whoops, whoops...Ye Xiping! I didn't expect you to actually come..." Lu Xingrong gasped and said to Ye Xiping, and Ye Xiping jumped off the horse and said to Lu Xingrong.

"Tell me the truth. I don't want to come either!" Looking into Lu Xingrong's eyes, Ye Xiping said solemnly: "So many of our good comrades have been killed by you and those Nanjing gentlemen!"

"But we're still here..." Looking at Lu Xingrong with complicated eyes, Ye Xiping said solemnly: "You, Lu Xingrong, have a huge feud with us. That is our internal grudge! But what you are fighting is a national war!"

After saying that, Lu Xingrong took a deep breath and continued: "Since it is a national war, we must come! Drive away the Japanese. Let's settle our grudges later!"

Lu Xingrong didn't expect Ye Xiping to say it directly, which made him stunned! Then he laughed!

"Yes! What you Ye Xiping said, I, Lao Lu, admit it!" Lu Xingrong was also unambiguous and said to Ye Xiping word by word: "You saved these brothers of my 52nd Division, I accept it! This is my life

, stay and kill the Japanese! If you want to drive away the Japanese, I will still be alive. If you want to kill me, I will chop you up, Ye Xiping! If you want to say no, I, Lu Xingrong, was not raised by humans!"

These words were resonant, but Ye Xiping could only smile! She said to Lu Xingrong: "Let's retreat first! The Japanese will come up and kill them later!"

Lu Xingrong nodded and looked around. Ren Dehai knew what he meant, walked to his side and said solemnly: "Sir... we only have 362 brothers left. There are no seriously injured brothers..."

As he said that, Ren Dehai slowly lowered his head. Lu Xingrong was silent. He knew what Ren Dehai meant. It was not that the 52nd Division was not seriously injured, but that the soldiers of the 52nd Division who were seriously injured all made a choice - they hugged each other.

The grenades roared into the crowd of Japanese soldiers!

They know that the 52nd Division does not have much medicine for injuries. Once they are seriously injured, they are actually dead. They would rather die with dignity.

"Tell the brothers, we are withdrawing..." After a while, Lu Xingrong said these words hoarsely and sadly from his throat. Ye Xiping, who was beside him, also fell silent. He thought that the 52nd Division would fight.

It was miserable and hard.

But he didn't expect that the 52nd Division with more than 4,700 people would fight in one breath until there were only more than 300 people left! Not even a single person was seriously injured, which shows how tragic the battle has become...

At this time, the sky gradually darkened. The bones of the soldiers who died in the battle were collected. Under Lu Xingrong's command, they were burned into ashes, put in simple jars, and buried beside the position.

Then, they followed Ye Xiping and others to withdraw from the position under the cover of night.

Almost an hour after they withdrew from the position, a sound of "rumbling, rumbling, rumbling..." was heard. The Japanese cavalry troops finally arrived here in disgrace, but there was no one on the position.

The frustrated cavalry brigade immediately sent someone to notify the Japanese infantry brigade on the beach position - their radio was bombarded by 107 Tiger Roars on the road and was reduced to pieces all over the ground.

In desperation, they failed to contact the headquarters, so they could only try their best to get here. But when they arrived at the position, they found that the Chinese team here had already disappeared without a trace.

The Japanese troops on the beach position did not notice the departure of the 52nd Division. Everyone was fighting. It was impossible to see any lights on the position. And everyone tried to stay quiet.

After all, no one wants to be a target. Showing a little sparkle or making a little noise is undoubtedly the easiest way to become a target.

But what they didn't expect was that the 52nd Division would withdraw just like that! After receiving the news, the Japanese brigade quickly mobilized to attack the position. After searching for a long time, there was no one on the position.

"Red Deer!! You are all a bunch of idiots!" Ogamo, the commander of the cavalry brigade who was transferred from the army cavalry school officer, gritted his teeth and said: "Two brigades didn't even watch a crippled division! What the hell are you doing?

What are you doing?!"

Although they are at the same level, Ogamo is senior! He graduated from the 21st batch of the Army Non-commissioned Officer School and the 30th batch of the Army University. He once served as the captain of the 7th Cavalry Regiment and also served as the horse administration section chief of the Military Affairs Bureau of the Army Province. He is known as the head of the military department.

Recognize the future cavalry warrior!

Originally, this major general was going to the 1st Cavalry Brigade, but the division commander snatched him away based on his connections. Ohgamo fought really well in this battle, and captured Fuzhou without any pause during the attack.

city!

Although they arrived late, the two brigade leaders who had experienced red harassment could understand the hardships involved.

Therefore, they did not dare to reply to Ohgamo's scolding.

"Please contact the division commander immediately. Our cavalry will pursue you first! Let's see if we can catch up..." Ohgamo took a deep breath, turned to the cavalry and shouted: "Mount your horse! Be careful along the way."

Look for traces! Don’t let them escape!”

Following Ohgamo's order, the cavalry team dispersed with a "crash!" and the two brigades did not dare to neglect, and quickly ordered the troops to disperse and search immediately.

The sky has darkened. How can such traces be so easy to find?! Fortunately, the remaining troops of the Red Army and the 52nd Division totaled thousands of people, so some traces will be left behind.

After a lot of trouble, the Japanese army followed the traces and pursued them. Ye Xiping and others were also old people from fighting, so their second-line position was set up at the foot of the mountain.

There aren't many people, they just act as a barrier to the troops!

"Click, click, click..." The sound of a light machine gun sounded. Several cavalrymen who were at the front fell off their horses! Then the sound of the grenade "Boom~Boom~Boom..." sounded, and Ohgamo's pupils shrank!

roared.

"Horses lying down!!" All the cavalry responded, lying down on their horses, and then jumped on the horses!

"Boom! Boom..." There were several explosions in succession. At this time, the Japanese infantry troops finally arrived! Several machine gun firepower points were quickly deployed, and along the trajectory there was a burst of "burst, burst, burst..."!

However, after firing several rounds of bullets, there was no response. The follow-up troops quickly touched it. What they saw was an empty small position. Looking at this temporary position, Ogamo's face turned green and white!

"Congratulations! Don't be anxious, they can't escape!" Hirose Jusuke had also arrived at the scene at this time. He said in a deep voice to Ohgamo who looked ugly: "They will never get out of this forest!"
