Hearing that Chu Feng was going to lead the platoon of soldiers and tanks to the rear to stop them, Li Tian said uneasily,""Captain, there are at least a few thousand enemies chasing after us. With the cooperation of the cavalry and the tanks, the number of guards you led alone is pitifully small. It's too dangerous.”
Chu Feng waved his hand and said," No, we have so many miners. Our marching speed is already very slow. The possibility of tracking them has greatly increased."”
He looked at Li Tian with a reproachful look.
He continued," If we don't have an army to block the rear, we will soon be discovered and pursued by the enemy. At that time, we won't be able to take care of ourselves. The brothers of these more than a thousand miners will suffer. Therefore, for the sake of more than a thousand compatriots, we must split up.”
Hearing this news, Li Tian said with a pained expression,""Then let this humble servant lead the 1st squadron to stay behind. Captain, you can take the other brothers and leave first.”
Facing Li Tian's sincere gaze, Chu Feng gave him a meaningful pat on the shoulder and said,""Brother, I understand your heart. We are brothers who have lived through life and death. At this time, there is no need to divide us. As the captain, I will stay behind to command and raise the morale of our brothers.”
"And you have to believe me. I can lead everyone to survive in Song Jiang County and break out of the encirclement. I will definitely be able to successfully complete the blocking mission and meet up with you after retreating.”
"There are too many people in a squadron, which is not conducive to mobile combat and retreat. Stay here, the troops need you to lead.”
This was because Li Tian Shi was the reserve commander that he had high hopes for.
If it was someone else, he would not be at ease.
" But…" Li Tian wanted to say more but was interrupted by Chu Feng,""Alright, stop talking. I still have such an advanced tank in my hand. Even if we can't defeat them, we have to break out of the encirclement successfully. It's not a problem.”
"Yes, sir!"
Li Tian didn't say anything else and immediately stood up. He stepped forward and saluted Chu Feng,""Captain, take care! We'll wait for you to come back."
Chu Feng also stood up and returned the greeting solemnly. He said,""Don't worry, I still have to bring you guys out of here to participate in the defense of the capital! We must also send our brothers from the Dongbei Army back to their hometown and chase the Japanese out of the three provinces. We can't let them die!!”
Li Tian nodded solemnly.
He immediately led his troops and set off. He also relayed Chu Feng's orders to Zhang Dashan, Dong Shan, and Xiao Liu.
He knew that the situation was critical.
Zhang Dashan and Dong Shan, the two squadron leaders, immediately carried out Chu Feng's orders with Li Tian and gathered the troops.
The captain of the cannon squad, Xiao Liu, took advantage of the opportunity for Chu Feng to drive the tank and strode over to Chu Feng. He took the initiative to ask,""Captain, I want to stay and fight with you!”
"Impossible!" Chu Feng was inspecting his weapon when he raised his head.
He looked at Xiao Liu and rejected him.
Little Liu was anxious when he heard this. He stepped forward and asked Chu Feng,""Why? Our artillery squadron stayed behind to provide fire support to the brothers guarding the platoon. We can also stop the Japanese!”
Chu Feng said sternly," You prodigal. I've only managed to accumulate this little fortune with great difficulty. You'll only be happy if you want to ruin it all?"”
Little Liu panicked upon hearing this and wanted to explain to convince Chu Feng.
But Chu Feng interrupted him,"It's nothing?" Hurry up and execute the order! Step by step, follow the main force and retreat. Without my order, you are not allowed to stop!!”
Chu Feng's expression was serious and didn't give him any room to bargain.
"Yes!" Xiao Liu replied in a muffled voice. Take care, captain."
Chu Feng deliberately scolded," The enemy is right in front of us. Don't you try to confuse us. Bring all the cannons and artillery for me, not a single one more, not a single one more. Wait for me to come back and get you!"”
"Yes, sir!"
Little Liu felt much better after being scolded by Chu Feng. He quickly stood up and responded before leaving with pleasure.
After a while.
Three infantry squadrons, one artillery squadron, and more than a thousand miners who were rescued were evacuated one after another.
Only Chu Feng, Liu Hui, and the other 30 platoons of soldiers were hiding in the woods. There were also four soldiers in the Sherman tank.
Manzi would be driving the tank, and Chu Feng had already promoted him to the captain of this tank.
He turned around and saw the platoon of soldiers waiting for his orders on both sides of the tank. There were also four tank soldiers filled with tanks.
Chu Feng suddenly turned around and sternly said,""Brothers, Shanchuan Prison Camp, Yunzhou Iron Mine, and the commander of the 10th army that we ambushed and killed on the way here, these battles are over!”
"We took advantage of every opportunity to kill many Japanese. The enemy must hate us to the core now.”
"Therefore, our next step will be to face the enemy's almost endless pursuit and encirclement.”
"There are more than a thousand miners who were just rescued with us. In order to protect them and evacuate safely, we need someone to stop the enemy. Because you are all my most capable subordinates and the bravest soldiers of the entire independent brigade, I left our guards here!”
"With you guys here, I believe that we will be able to stop the Japanese and successfully cover the retreat of the main force and the miners!”
"Are you confident?"
"Yes!" Liu Hui took the lead and replied.”
"Yes!"
Dozens of guards lined up in a row, and the tank soldiers responded in unison.
"Alright!" Chu Feng immediately nodded. Prepare for battle! We will use the blood of the Japanese to pay tribute to the souls of the 52nd Army soldiers!”
The vast majority of those who remained were soldiers from the 67th division of the northern army. Thus, when Chu Feng said that he would avenge his comrades, their blood was instantly aroused!
"Revenge!" The thirty or so people shouted in unison again.”
"Revenge!"
"Revenge!"
After his speech, Chu Feng waved his hand and the 30 soldiers quickly spread out and followed the tanks to the forest. They relied on trees, rocks, and bushes to lay in ambush by the road.
Not long after, another group of Japanese cavalrymen galloped over.
Chu Feng stood on the Sherman tank and observed.
There were roughly four to five hundred people, and the flashing of headlights and the neighing of horses and horses could be heard from behind. It was obvious that there were more soldiers.
It seemed that Liu Hui and the others had scouted the information very accurately. The devils that came were all cavalry and tanks.
Chu Feng unlocked the safety of the Browning's anti-aircraft machine gun. He held the muzzle with one hand and lightly pressed the trigger with his index finger. He ordered in a deep voice,""Prepare for battle!"
