Hu Biao did not participate too much in the battle to pursue the defeated Japanese troops. For Hu Biao, the remaining headquarters of the 13th Division of the Japanese army that defeated the town and forced him to retreat to Luzhou, and his combat mission to Lu'an was announced to be completed.

The blocking troops sent out earlier will be surprised by the fleeing Japanese on the road where ambush was set up in advance. How many Japanese can escape the ambush circle set up by Hu Biao depends on the Japanese's final luck.

It is naturally the best thing to be able to completely wipe out the 13th Division that attacks Lu'an, but even if the Japanese escape a little, they still cannot change the cruel reality of the 13th Division withdrawing from the Japanese combat sequence. This division was completely destroyed by Hu Biao.

In addition to the Japanese devils who had eliminated Hu Biao in the Battle of Xuzhou earlier, I believe that this record will shock the senior generals of the Kuomintang army. With such a brilliant record, I believe no one dares to ignore Hu Biao's existence.

Faced with the full-scale counterattack of the 51st Army, the Japanese army, who were unable to break out of the town, still showed an extremely cruel side. Unfortunately, even though these Japanese devils made up their minds to fight to the death, they still couldn't hold on for long.

Hu Biao, who led the guard platoon to accompany Yu Xuezhong into the town, learned that the Japanese were still struggling to death, and immediately ordered: "Zhuzi, you will lead the team and lead the sniper team and the commando to end the battle as soon as possible!"

"What about you?"

"I have General Yu and his guard battalion here, so there will be no problem. Although it is still early, we still have a lot to do. End the battle in the town as soon as possible, and we can also meet with the large army as soon as possible!"

"Yes, captain!"

Seeing Hu Biao split out half of the guard platoon and cooperated with his troops to eliminate the remaining enemies, Yu Xuezhong also said gratefully: "Brother, thank you! These subordinates you trained can be called tiger and wolf troops!"

"Brother has won the award! In fact, they have the strength they have today, which has been through the test of life and death. No matter how good they are in training, they cannot grow up without practical baptism. Compared with those who sacrifice, they are indeed lucky!"

"It's really lucky that the veterans who have lived for the rest of their lives will survive. However, we will call this battle tonight a great victory!"

Compared to Xuezhong's excitement, Hu Biao didn't feel anything to be happy. Send Tian Tiezhu and half of the guard platoon to reduce casualties in the offensive troops as much as possible. After all, these Northeastern troops are actually not easy.

This eight-year war of resistance was paid a heavy price like the Northeast Army and the Sichuan Army. At this moment, due to the 51st Army commanded by Xuezhong, most of the officers and soldiers were from Northeast China. I am afraid that not many people could survive until the end of the War of Resistance!

In Hu Biao's opinion, these are tough guys with iron and strong abilities. Hu Biao also hopes that when the War of Resistance ends, they will survive more people. For these officers and soldiers, their greatest expectation may be that they can fight back to their hometown one day!

Unfortunately, for Hu Biao, who has a plan, the Northeast will not be involved too much. At this moment, the Northeast is still stationed with the Kwantung Army, known as the strongest Japanese army. If you want to recover the Northeast, you may have to wait until the War of Resistance ends.

The officers and soldiers of the 51st Army who were carrying out the clearance mission seemed a little curious when they saw Tian Tiezhu and others being led by Yu Xuezhong's guards. They only realized what a master was when Tian Tiezhu and others took action.

Facing the Japanese hiding in the ruins, Tian Tiezhu led a group of three assault teams to search and advance along the ruins. The sniper team responsible for providing cover hid behind the attacking troops and kept shooting and killing Japanese sergeants who were trying to attack.

Looking at the remaining Japanese soldiers who were constantly being shot dead, the officers and soldiers of the 51st Army who were following behind the attack, they also said in admiration: "These guys are so powerful! Not to mention the weapons, they are really good at fighting!"

"Don't just envy you, learn more!"

Although the commander who led the team admired him, he knew that this was a rare opportunity to learn. As for how much he could learn in the end, it depends on their own learning ability. However, with Tian Tiezhu and others helping them, they can also reduce casualties.

Although the commando's attack was not fast, the officers and soldiers of the 51st Army who followed the attack finally found that this speed was actually faster and safer than their previous forced assault. Once the Japanese emerged, they would be strangled immediately.

In addition, the grenades that the commando kept throwing out during the attack, and many Japanese devils who tried to hide and shoot black guns were also killed by the grenades thrown by the commando. When they heard the screams, someone rushed over to replenish the guns.

It seems a bit wasteful of grenades, but it is better than being attacked by Japanese aggression. With the commando leader, the speed of encirclement and suppressing Japanese aggression has also increased much faster. The places where the surviving Japanese can hide are also shrinking.

When the attacking troops of various groups finally met in the town and cleared out the remaining enemies in the city, the battle to basically end. Seeing that the battle ended, Tian Tiezhu also brought his men and quickly met with Hu Biao and his party.

Hu Biao, who had already negotiated the distribution of trophy, also said directly: "Brother, send some more troops to pursue along the road! I guess the Japanese who would flee at this time should be blocked by my subordinates."

"Okay! I immediately draw two main groups to run forward and chase the escaped Japanese!"

A guard regiment had been sent earlier, and now two main regiments were drawn. In order to pursue the surviving Japanese devils, Yu Xuezhong also sent nearly one main division troops. Once Japanese devils are caught up, the fate will not be too good.

Knowing that it would take some time to clean the battlefield, Hu Biao brought Yu Xuezhong to the artillery position outside the town. Hu Biao, who had promised Yu Xuezhong, also handed over the six heavy artillery and ten mountain artillery on the position directly to Yu Xuezhong.

He pointed to the few remaining artillery ballasts and said, "Brother, I don't have many artillery shells in my hand. These artillery ballasts should be able to fight a few rounds. Adding to the artillery ballasts seized in the town before, it should be enough for me to fight two tough battles.

I will send a car to help you pull the cannons into the city and leave a few cars for you at that time. However, for safety reasons, you must hide these cannons well and never let the Japanese reconnaissance planes discover them.

If nothing unexpected happens, when the Japanese know that the 13th Division has been crippled, they will probably send bombers to bomb the Lu'an you stationed. During this period, you must be mentally prepared for air defense attacks!"

"Thank you! I will definitely keep these artillery properly. When the Japanese come again next time, I will use these artillery to give them an unexpected surprise. With these artillery, I will be more confident in defending Lu'an City!"

Although Hu Biao was not sure when Lu'an fell, in terms of the current battlefield situation, the 51st Army, which was responsible for the flank defense, and the 26th Army, commanded by Xu Yuanquan, could also be regarded as a successful completion of the mission.

However, according to the Japanese's nature, when the reinforcements sent later arrive, they will inevitably attack the two troops. Whether these two troops can ultimately defend Lu'an and Huoshan depends on their final luck.

Anyway, for Hu Biao, after this battle, he would not get entangled with the Japanese devils participating in the Battle of Wuhan. Instead, he turned his attention to winning the Battle of Xuzhou and guarding the rear garrison troops stationed in the occupied areas.

No matter what the final result of the Wuhan Battle, Hu Biao would do his best to destroy the Japanese army's strategic attempt to open up the North-South railway line. Before the Japanese army organized a large rear rush, he would make a fuss in the rear that had just been occupied by the Japanese.

The seized artillery was given to the 51st Army for free, which was to make the 51st Army owe a favor. In fact, even if Hu Biao didn't send it, he would not be able to take so many artillery, and he would have to blow it up or abandon it at that time.

Next, Hu Biao, who was preparing to go to Xinyang, would also give the remaining artillery and a batch of seized weapons to the Gui army stationed in Xinyang, which would be a generous gift to Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi to further strengthen the relationship between the two sides.

At that time, even if Hu Biao does something in the Yellow River Floor Zone, I believe Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi will not say much. Many of the national military combat troops stationed in the Yellow River Floor Zone are under the jurisdiction of the Fifth War Zone.

As the saying goes, if you take advantage of people with short hands and short mouths, give some benefits first and make some trouble in the future. I believe that Li Bai and the two generals will not cause trouble for Hu Biao. They even have to end up with Hu Biao to avoid intensifying the relationship between the two parties.

Of course, Hu Biao is worth asking for trouble for the troops stationed in the Yellow River Flood Zone, he must have done something that is harmful to the will of heaven. If he takes up the righteousness, this mute loses. As the commander of the Fifth War Zone, Li Zongren must eat it even if he doesn’t eat it!

When Hu Biao distributed the seized spoils, he soon received a telegram from Qin Tianyou. He learned that the Ogisu Rishi soldiers who fled in a car were killed and only a small number of Japanese troops successfully broke through, Hu Biao was also very happy.

He immediately said: "Send a report to Lao Qin and ask him to restrain the body of the Japanese division commander, and then bring the troops back as soon as possible. The seized spoils, except for the relatively high-value things, are left to the 51st Army.

When they come back, we must also prepare to set off. Although it is still a while before dawn, we still have to leave Lu'an before dawn. After dawn, I believe that the Japanese's planes will run around the sky, so it would be bad if they are targeted!"

"Yes, captain!"

While sending a telegram to Qin Tianyou, Hu Biao also smiled and said, "Brother, congratulations! Defeat most of the Japanese 13th Division in one battle and kill the Japanese division commander Ogisu. This good news will be sent when my brother returns to the city!"

"How can you be so embarrassed? This is obviously my brother's credit!"

"Brother, I said before that this credit is of no use to me, and I don't care about it either! Later, I will send a telegram to Li Bai and Dai Li, telling you that this battle is the credit of your 51st Army.

This matter is decided so, don’t feel embarrassed. You should know in your heart that this military merit is very important to you. With this military merit, no matter how hard others want to make things difficult for your Northeast Army, you should also consider the morale of the army and the people!”
