The cavalrymen brought more than a hundred spoils of war and headed straight for the Munitions Factory. They did not know how the battle was going.
However, Zhang Dabiao's 1st Battalion should be able to wipe out these Japanese.
However, when they were about to reach the mountain pass of the Munitions Factory, they heard gunshots.
It turned out that after Li Yunhu and the others killed the captain of the brigade and left, Zhang Dabiao's 1st Battalion had rushed up to fight them.
Logically speaking, Zhang Dabiao's 1st Battalion should be able to deal with the remaining few hundred Japanese.
However, reality was cruel.
If Zhang Dabiao didn't fight them hand-to-hand, he could still defeat them.
After all, they had rushed all the way here. The soldiers were very tired and had not even had the time to catch their breath before they started fighting with the Japanese.
Another reason was that the Japanese troops paid great attention to the training of bayonet fighting.
Therefore, when Zhang Dabiao's 1st Battalion charged forward, although they were very fierce, they slowly realized that these Japanese were not little sheep.
In the end, both sides ended up in a draw. At this time, Zhang Dabiao had already realized the seriousness of the problem.
He knew that he wasn't here to seek revenge or kill the Japanese on purpose. His goal was to save the brigade commander and protect the arsenal.
Since he couldn't beat the Japanese now, he would run and lure them out of the arsenal so that they wouldn't reinforce the Japanese army.
Therefore, he immediately gave the order to retreat.
Just like that, the 1st Battalion quickly retreated and ran away from the Munitions Factory.
When the Japanese saw that the 8th Route Army had run away, they could chase them all the way.
However, their captain had already been beheaded. They no longer had a commander.
They were at a loss, so they didn't dare to chase after him.
Another reason was that the cavalry had extremely terrifying combat strength. If they suddenly ran out of nowhere, they would not be able to escape.
They would be completely finished.
Therefore, they didn't dare to chase after the 1st Battalion. In the end, the three Company Leaders decided that it would be safer to go to the Munitions Factory.
Thus, the two to three hundred Japanese soldiers rushed toward the arsenal.
Zhang Dabiao and the others ran far away, but when they turned around, they didn't see the Japanese chasing them. Instead, they ran in the direction of the Munitions Factory.
Zhang Dabiao was so angry that he cursed,
"Damn, these Japanese are really smart! He actually didn't fall for it."
"Let's go to the Munitions Factory too! We can't let the Japanese reinforcements succeed."
Thus, Zhang Dabiao's 1st Battalion also started to chase.
However, when they reached the entrance of the arsenal, they stopped because they saw that the Japanese army had already blocked the entrance with stones.
It formed a solid defense.
Zhang Dabiao and the others didn't dare to charge recklessly, so they could only find cover nearby and surround them first.
In any case, they had already formed a pincer attack with the people in the Munitions Factory.
These few hundred Japanese wouldn't be able to escape.
The Japanese army, which had been attacking the arsenal, only had one squadron left. Adding on the squadron that had just returned, there were only two squadrons left, with a strength of six to seven hundred people.
It was not realistic to take down the arsenal with such a small number of troops, and they were under attack from both sides.
They could only preserve their strength and wait for reinforcements. After all, there was still a regiment in the county.
If that alliance came, all the problems would be solved.
However, they did not expect that the regiment would suddenly turn back and not come to their rescue.
These trapped devils could only wait foolishly.
Why did the reinforcement team suddenly turn back?
There must be something fishy going on. This matter must not be simple.
……
The cavalry finally reached the entrance of the Munitions Factory.
Li Yunhu saw Zhang Dabiao and his battalion lying in ambush nearby.
Zhang Dabiao had already seen the black mass flying towards them.
He was still a little worried. If this was the Japanese cavalry, then they would be in big trouble.
When the black cavalry approached, he could see that Li Yunhu was riding on a white horse and leading the way. Only then did he relax.
He muttered to himself in shock,"
"Li Yunhu is really capable! He managed to get so many horses in a short while. These horses looked good!”
In the blink of an eye, Li Yunhu's white horse was already in front of Zhang Dabiao.
Li Yunhu flew down from his horse and said,
"What's going on? Haven't you eliminated the Japanese?”
Zhang Dabiao sighed and said,"
"The Japanese are very cunning. They ran to the entrance of the mountain and blew up half of the entrance with explosives. Using a boulder as a cover, he's trying to resist us to the end!”
Li Yunhu sneered and said,
"Humph! They want to resist us to the end with just this little force?”
"They are waiting for reinforcements, but they will never expect it.”
"Their reinforcements won't come. They're busy defending the county!”
When Zhang Dabiao heard that, he finally felt relieved. He said,"
"The heavens are really helping me! If there was another alliance, it would be difficult to deal with.”
"I'm curious, why didn't that regiment send reinforcements?”
"This doesn't match the Japanese's personality!”
Li Yunhu smiled mysteriously and said,
"There must be something strange going on. There must be something more important in the county town that they needed to protect. They would rather sacrifice this regiment.”
