Chapter 2169 The Cost of Shifting the Disaster Southward

"It's hard to explain what happened between us and the 586th Regiment. It's not the first time we've cheated them. They'll get used to it after cheating them so many times, right, Lou Yue?" Qian Chuan'er was talking to Zhao Zilong on horseback, and he turned around and asked Lou Yue who was listening nearby.

"Squinty eyes! Just say 586 when you say 586, why are you talking about me?" Lou Yue said unhappily.

So, the guest cavalrymen from the Shang Zhen Camp who were walking with Zhao Zilong and the others all smiled.

They smiled because since Lou Yue came, Qian Chuan'er's nickname of "Squinty Eyes" has been completely confirmed.

Qian Chuan'er didn't care when he saw that everyone called him that, because it was Lou Yue who was dragged by him to "turn against" the 586th Regiment.

"He was originally from the 586th Regiment. Their regiment commander was a jerk who always shot us in the back. He came to our battalion because he couldn't stand it.

There were too many Japanese soldiers, so we led them to their defense area. We did this when the battalion commander was here.

While the news of our joining the Eighth Route Army has not spread yet, let's trick them one last time." Qian Chuan'er said to Zhao Zilong again, and he smiled again, and his eyes became narrowed.

"How can you call it tricking them? They are all from the Northeast. They are all the same when they serve as soldiers and fight in the war. Why are we fighting hard in the front, while they are hiding in the back like turtles?

It's just that the regiment commander is a jerk, the soldiers are all jerk, and the generals are all jerk!" Qin Chuan also added.

And Qin Chuan's statement was agreed by other guest cavalrymen in Shang Zhenying, and they all said "yes"!

Zhao Zilong couldn't say anything. Although Shang Zhenying had joined the Eighth Route Army, at least he didn't know which department was in charge of Shang Zhenying, and he didn't have the power to manage Shang Zhenying.

However, from his point of view, the method of diverting the trouble to the south by the Shang Zhenying was somewhat inappropriate from the perspective of the Eighth Route Army.

But before he could think of what to say, Qian Chuaner said with a smile: "When you are close to the 586 defense zone, you all stay away and don't let their people see us.

As for them seeing us, it doesn't matter, hehe."

When Zhao Zilong heard Qian Chuaner say this, what else could he say? It turned out that Qian Chuaner saw through his thoughts. He also knew that doing so was more or less a violation of the military discipline of the Eighth Route Army, but he took his responsibility out of it first!

Zhao Zilong smiled, he really didn't know what to say. After a while, he changed the subject and said: "We don't have enough people on both wings. If not, send some more out."

"We should send more out, so that the Japanese who come in through won't count on us again." Qian Chuaner said.

Why did Zhao Zilong's cavalry company not move fast? Why did they hit the Japanese army back before? It was not to destroy many enemies, but as Qian Chuan'er said, the Japanese were like flowing water. We have to build a dam to hold back the water. The more we hold back, the more fierce the Japanese will rush. They will follow us to the defense area of ​​586 Regiment!

It turned out that Qian Chuan'er and his men saw that the large Japanese army's sweeping troops had returned, and this place was relatively close to the defense area of ​​113 Division. They used the same trick again to lead the Japanese army to the 113 Division, especially the 586 Regiment, which was the defense area of ​​Zhao Tieying's regiment!

It's just that they are now like pulling the old cow's nose. They can't fight too hard. If they fight too hard, they will definitely suffer casualties and it will be impossible to retreat unscathed. They can't just let go of the rope and run. If they run fast, the Japanese may not catch up.

But in this way, they need to keep a distance from the Japanese army, which is difficult!

In order to ensure the safety of the two wings, they also sent small groups of troops to the two wings to prevent the Japanese army from bypassing.

Of course, the Shang Zhen Battalion and Zhao Zilong Company together now have less than 300 people, and the people sent to the two wings are only in squads to play a warning role.

Otherwise, even if a squad of Japanese soldiers ran in front of them to ambush and shoot them, they would suffer considerable losses.

At this time, on the right wing of their team, Shi Heng of the Eighth Route Army Cavalry was riding forward with several cavalrymen.

"Your accent sounds like you are from Shandong, where is your hometown?" Shi Heng asked while scanning the right wing vigilantly.

The soldier walking with him was a soldier from the Shang Zhen Battalion.

This place is now close to the defense zone of the 113th Division. The people in the Shang Zhen Battalion are familiar with the terrain and villages here, so Qian Chuaner sent a soldier named Su Cheng to patrol and guard with Shi Heng and others.

"My hometown is Liaocheng." Su Cheng replied.

"I think your accent sounds like you're from Liaocheng, we're from the same hometown!" Shi Heng said happily.

Going to the Northeast is called "Chuang Guandong", and most of the people who go to the Northeast are from Shandong and Hebei, so it's not surprising to hear people from the Northeast speak with a Shandong accent!

"Really?" The soldier named Su Cheng also got excited.

But before the two fellow villagers could see each other with tears in their eyes, gunshots suddenly rang out. The gunshots were a bit messy and could only be considered cold shots.

But no matter what kind of gun it was, it was lethal. Although bullets flew past them, the horse Su Cheng rode fell down without even a cry, and Su Cheng on the horse screamed and fell off the horse!

Su Cheng was shot first because he rode on the right side of Shi Heng, which means he was walking outside, so of course he was shot.

"Devils!" A soldier of the Eighth Route Army shouted, and when they looked to the right, they saw that a few Japanese war horses had indeed run out from the hills four or five hundred meters away in the distance, and the Japanese soldiers rushed straight towards them with shining sabers!

"Fellow villagers!" Shi Heng shouted.

"Don't worry about me, you go first, I was shot in the leg!" Su Cheng shouted.

No mistake, one sentence, one content, one 6, one 9, one book, one bar, take a look!

Then the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army saw that Su Cheng had taken off the rifle that he had slung over his back.

He turned over and hid behind his dead war horse, and started to pull the bolt.

When Shi Heng looked at the Japanese side again, he saw that there were not many Japanese cavalrymen, only about seven or eight.

"There are only a few of them, why are you afraid of them?" Shi Heng shouted, and he was already drawing his saber.

"You guys run back first, dismount and shoot, I'll shoot too!" Su Cheng shouted.

"Huh?" Shi Heng was stunned for a moment and then shouted, "Go!"

He was a cavalryman, and used to thinking like a cavalryman. After Su Cheng reminded him, he realized that there were not many Japanese cavalrymen rushing over, so why fight a cavalry battle with them?

As soon as he led those soldiers to turn their horses, Su Cheng's rifle sounded, and the Japanese cavalrymen who were rushing over this side had their horses knocked down.

But isn't that what cavalrymen do? The charge will never stop because one or two soldiers are knocked down. Just when Su Cheng knocked down the third Japanese cavalryman, the remaining five Japanese cavalrymen were only a hundred meters away from him, and it was too late for him to use his rifle again!

Su Cheng abandoned his rifle and stretched out his hand to pull out his box gun, pulled the bolt and pulled the trigger at the nearest Japanese soldier.

Although he knocked down two more Japanese war horses with the box gun, it was too late for him to shoot the remaining Japanese war horses!

After hitting five, Su Cheng stopped shooting as he looked at the huge horse shadow. He just lay down with his head in his arms.

As for what happened next, he didn't want to look up and see the huge horse hoof stepping on his upturned face!

So he didn't see what happened next!

What he could feel was that there was a gunshot behind him, and then he felt a force that he couldn't bear at all hit him like a sledgehammer!
