After the guerrillas withdrew from Nantai County, they quickly evacuated into the Daqingshan area.
At the same time, they notified villagers everywhere to fortify their walls and clear their fields to cope with the enemy's retaliation.
In addition to the large amounts of equipment that could be carried around, some of the seized equipment was buried on the spot.
Nearly 5,000 people from all walks of life were dispatched for this operation.
Communication and coordination relied entirely on correspondents riding horses back and forth.
Mistakes were inevitable, and guerrillas The army is not a regular army.
It is used to being free and loose, and often has a great discount in obeying orders.
If the main force of the Eighth Route Army had not participated, whether this battle could proceed smoothly would have been a problem.
The set task had been accomplished, and all the troops successfully retreated.
Chen Zikun was riding on a captured Japanese Ocean horse.
Looking at the people carrying things all over the mountains and plains, he couldn't help but worry: "It will be miserable if the Japanese catch up."
After saying that, he took out A pencil scrawled an order on the notebook and handed it to Shuangxi: "Give me the order and leave three hundred people to cover the retreat."
The person responsible for the cover task was Liu Xiaoyong.
He was one of the few officers with regular army background in the guerrilla army.
After receiving the order, he led his troops into the blocking position without hesitation and ambush in a cemetery near the only way out of the city.
At seven o'clock in the morning, with the cold and frost everywhere, a large group of Japanese troops marched out of Nantai County, heading west with murderous intent.
Major General Tian Lu knew the tactics of the guerrillas long ago, and the team formed a battle formation to search and advance.
Before entering the range, the infantry artillery was deployed for fire reconnaissance.
The cemetery was under heavy shelling.
Liu Xiaoyong ordered not to fight back.
He waited until the Japanese came into range before giving the order.
The light machine guns and grenade launchers fired simultaneously.
The blocking force, which had just been reloaded, had strong firepower and high morale.
The Japanese were unable to lift their heads.
Come.
Two planes flew over the horizon.
This time they were real light bombers.
They dropped a string of bombs and immediately turned the tide of the battle.
Liu Xiaoyong noticed the looming figures in yellow woolen coats in the wasteland on both sides.
The Japanese were already outflanking him.
He swung his box of cannons. : "Brothers, withdraw" Just fight and retreat.
Whenever the Japanese army encounters a village and intends to go in and raid it, the guerrillas rush out to harass them.
They are equipped with captured grenade launchers, which greatly increases the range of their firepower.
The harassed Japanese army is miserable and sends troops to pursue them.
It's also very embarrassing.
If you send too many guerrillas, they will turn around and flee.
If you send too few, they will be eaten.
"Assholes, these cowards, why don't they dare to fight the imperial army head-on."
The brigade staff were very angry, but Major General Tian Lu remained calm: "China's military science is smart, let's fight our own, don't let them interfere. " He may sound calm, but in fact, the major general is in a state of turmoil.
He has studied Chen Zikun, who has received formal military education in the United States.
He is a very difficult guy to deal with.
This attack on Nantai County will not be as simple as plundering supplies.
As a How could the general attack the county town, attack the imperial army, and anger the brigade for some supplies?
He must have a bigger goal.
After some careful consideration, Tian Luchaoichi finally came to the conclusion that Chen Zikun was trying to eliminate himself.

Well, since he had the courage to fight decisively, how could he shrink back as a soldier of the Empire of Japan?
Facing the rising sun, the major general said with great pride: " If he wants to fight, then he will fight.”
Thirty miles away at the foot of Daqing Mountain, Chen Zikun faced the vast fertile fields and swore: "We must eliminate the field roads."
But the reality was not as smooth as expected.
The guerrillas were not naturally suitable for regular combat.
Many armed forces quietly broke away from the order.
Only Chen Zikun's direct lineage and the Daqingshan detachment of the Eighth Route Army persisted in fighting.
Although the two sides had differences in combat goals, facing the Japanese The crazy attack is still fighting side by side.
Major General Tian Lu only led a brigade of troops.
According to the investigation, there were 800 troops, four infantry cannons, and several light and heavy machine guns.
In the past, Chen Zikun would not have even looked at an enemy army of this size, but now he had to fight it.
Mentally, face it seriously.
The brigade directly under Tianlu ignored the harassment of the guerrillas, but carried out raids step by step.
Kushuijing was the first to be hit.
Most of the villagers had already fled into the mountains with their families, leaving the entire village empty.
A group of villagers who had no time to escape were escorted to Major General Tian Lu.
He gently asked an old woman with all white hair: "Obasan, how old are you?"
The translator was interpreting on the side, and the old woman said: "I am sixty-nine, and next spring will be seventy."
Major General Tian Lu made a sign of shock: "Oh, the birthday boy is working, and there are several grandchildren at home."
"Five."
The old woman gestured with her palm.
"So, you are full of children and grandchildren."
Major General Tian Lu praised.
A group of officers wearing white gloves behind him also nodded frequently.
The old woman smiled toothlessly.
She thought this old Japanese man wearing glasses was very gentle.
Similar to the teacher at the east end of the village.
Major General Tian Lu looked at his watch and saw that it was twelve o'clock at noon, so he asked his adjutant to bring canned Japanese beef and biscuits to the villagers.
The villagers' panic gradually calmed down, and they felt that the Japanese were not as vicious as the legends said, and they were not as bold as they were. , and asked Major General Tian Lu for cigarettes, and the Major General gave him a whole pack.
After eating and drinking, the villagers were wondering what the Japanese would do next, when a machine gun rang out without warning.
Everyone instantly fell into a pool of blood.
The almost seventy-year-old woman stared with lifeless eyes.
Looking at the sky, I will never understand until my death that the Japanese fell out of love so quickly.
Major General Tian Lu shook his head and sighed: "These people did not deserve to die in the first place.
Their deaths were caused by the crimes of the guerrillas.
The imperial army has done its utmost to be benevolent and righteous."
He glanced at the officers and said in a more serious tone: "From now on, any Chinese people you encounter will be eliminated.
However, any inhumane killings are prohibited, and women and children can be exempted.
Gentlemen, do you understand?"
All the officers bowed together: "Hai"
The translator on the side wiped cold sweat and said: "The general is benevolent and righteous, and the imperial army is even more benevolent and righteous."
All the houses in Kushuijing were set on fire, and black smoke shot straight into the sky.
When the farmers hiding in the nearby mountains saw this scene, they wanted to cry without tears.
Some people began to scold Chen Shou, saying that he was a bastard and should not provoke the Japanese.
The villagers have been harmed, and their ancestral houses that have been built for decades or centuries have been burned down.

Where will they live in the future?
Kushuijing was not the only village that suffered.
Everywhere the Japanese troops went, they killed and burned everything.
Although the guerrillas tried their best to harass, the Japanese army huddled together like a giant hedgehog, leaving no place to eat.
Tian Luchaoyi is very clever at this.
You hit yours, and I'll hit mine, without any interference.
He will wipe out all the villages where the guerrillas rely on to survive.
Let's see how you survive this cold winter.
When the battle report reached Daqingshan, the soldiers exploded and demanded to go out to fight the Japanese to the death.
However, Chen Zikun strictly prohibited anyone from taking any unauthorized action.
All the people in Niumazhuang have withdrawn into the mountains.
The sky is gray and it looks like it is going to snow.
The north wind is howling and the weather is extremely cold.
The villagers are dragging their families with them.
The goats are bleating, the hens are flapping their wings, and the big yellow dog is missing.
Seeing such a lively scene, wagging tails and barking, wheelbarrows carrying seeds for the next year and crying children, the team staggering on the mountain road, makes people anxious.
Chen Shou and Gai Longquan's eyes were red with hatred, and they asked for orders again: "Commander-in-Chief, let's fight.
If we don't fight, the villagers will have to point at our backs and scold us."
Chen Zikun looked down the mountain and muttered in a low voice: "You are forcing me."
Chen Shou said hurriedly: "We are not forcing you."
Chen Zikun said: "I'm not talking about you, but Tian Lu Chaoyi.
He is forcing me to fight him."
Gai Longquan said: "Then why are you hesitating?
Go down the mountain and have a fight with him openly."
Chen Zikun asked him: "What do you think the chances of winning are?"
Gai Longquan and Chen Shou were both silent, and after a long while they said: "In frontal combat, at least one division of troops is needed to suppress the Japs.
I'm afraid it won't be enough with our few troops."
Chen Zikun said: "That's it.
We can't fight him on the battlefield chosen by Tian Lu.
Even if we fight, it must be on the battlefield chosen by me."
"But how can we lure him here?"
the two of them wondered.
Two horses came galloping towards him.
Wu Changqing got off his horse, looked anxious, and quickly stepped forward and said: "General Chen, our pre-arranged plan has failed.
You kid, don't be fooled."
Chen Zikun said: "Mao Qi, the German Army Chief of Staff during the European War, once said that the possibility of the plan being fulfilled during combat is very slim, so more plans must be prepared.
I was just looking for you.
I heard that your Eighth Route Army has a military factory. " Wu Changqing was stunned: "There is a small factory, but..."
Chen Zikun couldn't help but said: "I am short of a bait, so I can borrow it."
In the Niumazhuang blacksmith shop, Lao Zhang Zheng and two young blacksmiths tried to cast the breech block of the 88 gun.
This job was very difficult because they had never seen the original.
They could only use the breech block of the Japanese infantry gun as a template to imitate the cast iron machine.
The performance is very poor, there are many blisters, and the size is much worse.
If used on a cannon, the chamber will definitely explode.
It's not that Lao Zhang has never considered forging, but the process requirements are higher and he doesn't have decent steel on hand.

He suddenly threw away the tools and sighed: "We can't get the German stuff.
We are hundreds of years behind."
Both blacksmiths advised him: "Forget it, let's go.
The people in the village are evacuating.
It's too late if we don't leave."
Just as they were about to go out, a group of Eighth Route Army escorted a dozen prisoners over, and ordered these people to help move the equipment.
The blacksmith shop was part of the Eighth Route Army's military factory, with several lathes and a large number of finished and semi-finished products.
The prisoners were threatening them with bayonets.
They got off to work obediently and carried their hands on their shoulders as they headed out of the village.
Halfway there, the two Japanese prisoners realized that they were out of sight of the guards.
They looked at each other and quietly rolled into the ditch on the side of the road.
The guard soon realized that he had lost two prisoners.
He chased them for a while, yelling and screaming, and fired several shots into the air.
He was probably busy running for his life, so he hurriedly turned back and went up the mountain when he didn't find anyone.
The two prisoners crawled out of the ditch and fled as fast as they could.
There was thick smoke all over the countryside of Nantai.
The two prisoners followed the smoke column and quickly found the Japanese brigade.
Major General Tian Lu asked them personally and learned an intelligence that the guerrillas owned a military factory and were moving to Daqingshan.
The subordinates shouted: "Your Excellency, go into the mountain and destroy them."
Major General Tian Lu looked at the majestic green mountains, was silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Soldiers never tire of deceit.
The enemy is trying to lure me with their military factories.
I think this is how Captain Yamada died in battle
