Under One Person: I am the Master of Maoshan

"Kill!"

The soldiers of the second battalion wielded machetes and bayonets, stubbornly resisting the charging Japanese.

Shen Quan stood closely beside the political commissar and stabbed the bayonet into the devil's chest with both hands, then kicked his dead body out.

But the number of the devils was too large, and the remaining soldiers of the second battalion fell one by one. Li Wenying was heartbroken to see this.

At this critical moment, two soldiers dressed in Eighth Route Army uniforms rushed out from the rear of the position like a gust of wind.

The two of them joined the battle group directly, and every time they attacked, the Japanese soldiers were killed. One of the older soldiers pressed his hands on the ground, and several streams of force rushed out from the ground, killing the three Japanese soldiers in front of him.

Li Wenying and Shen Quan looked at each other, both of them revealed expressions of surprise.

"Shen Quan, is this from your Second Battalion?"

"Political Commissar, I have never seen them. They are not soldiers from our regiment."

Seeing the strangeness in the two men's moves, Li Wenying guessed that they might be soldiers of Captain Shen of the New 1st Regiment.

The captain supervising the battle on the battlefield also saw this situation with a telescope and said fiercely: "Who are they! Let the soldiers get rid of these two people immediately!"

But just as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt someone patted his shoulder from behind. He turned around and saw Youshou staring at him with a sneer on his face.

The Japanese soldiers next to him collapsed to the ground with foam at the mouth. The captain was shocked and screamed in his heart.

"Baga! Who are you?..."

Before he could finish, You Ke's dagger pierced his throat, and blood spurted out two or three meters. He knelt on the ground, covering his wound, and stopped breathing.

After dealing with him, You Shou flashed and headed straight for the front battlefield. Li Wenying felt relieved when he saw You Shou coming to the battlefield. He had seen You Shou several times before in Jin District, so he recognized him at a glance.

"Brother You! Is that you?"

You Shou jumped to his side with a smile on his face: "Political Commissar Li, long time no see. We are here to support the independent regiment under the order of the brigade commander. Commander Kong is leading a large force. Let's get rid of them and retreat."

"Okay, thank you"

The addition of You Shou and two Lu family disciples instantly reversed the situation. The three of them were like tigers among a flock of sheep, killing the Japanese and forcing them to flee in all directions.

After defeating the Japanese, Li Wenying immediately gathered his troops and, without caring about the guns on the ground, led them to evacuate in the direction of Kong Jie's large force.

"Captain! Something happened!"

Nobutsu Sakata, who was in the command center at the rear, became furious after listening to his adjutant's report.

"What! We didn't even eat this bunch of guerrillas! Order the troops to chase them immediately! We must catch them!"

Adjutant Oshima hesitated: "Captain, there are unidentified soldiers in their team. They are very likely to be enemies of Shen Yan. If we pursue them rashly, will it be...?"

Sakata Nobutsu waved his hand: "It doesn't matter! There are only three of them, they can't withstand our artillery fire."

After several reinforcements by Shinozuka Yoshio, Sakata Nobutsu's regiment even had the same number of people as an ordinary brigade, so Sakata was quite confident.

"Hi!"

Nobutsu Sakata led a large army in pursuit of the Second Battalion of the Independent Regiment. Although Yushou harassed them several times, he was unable to get rid of them.

The soldiers of the Second Battalion fought and retreated, and it took about ten minutes for Kong Jie to return with a large force.

"The political commissar and the others are ahead, follow me!"

Kong Jie led the first and third battalions and rushed towards the Japanese vanguard.

"Political Commissar, are you not injured?"

Li Wenying shook her head: "No, Captain, you are here at the right time..."

"boom!"

Before Li Wenying could finish talking to Kong Jie, a mortar exploded next to them.

You Shou was quick-witted and quickly tackled Kong Jie, who was closest to him, but Li Wenying and a disciple of the Lu family, who were closest to the impact point, were hit by the shrapnel.

You Shou's ribs were also broken by the rocks that were blown up. As he was protecting Kong Jie, he did not dare to activate the poison barrier that protected him. Kong Jie was also slightly injured.

Kong Jie and You Shou climbed up and immediately ran to Li Wenying's side.

Li Wenying's breath was like a candle that was about to go out, only exhaling but not breathing in. The Lu family member who was closest to her was blown to pieces on the spot.

"Ninth brother, wake up! Wake up! How am I going to explain this to mom?"

His eldest brother cried bitterly and hugged his body. These two Lu family disciples and Lu Ren were brothers of the same generation, and they were the backbone of the new generation of the Lu family. They had just joined the army not long ago, but now they left the world forever.

You Shou squatted down with a frown on his face, and reached out to close the eyes of the ninth son of the Lu family.

"Brother, use the Devouring Sac to collect his body."

He nodded, his voice hoarse from crying, but he still hugged his brother's body tightly.

Seeing this, You Shou pulled him up, then took out his swallowing bag and put Lu Jiu's body into it.

Li Wenying used up her last bit of strength to smile at Kong Jie: "Old comrade! I can only accompany you here. You have to see the day of victory for me!"

"Commissar! Commissar!"

Kong Jie's eyes were red as if he had lost his mind, and he was about to organize troops to avenge Li Wenying.

"Captain Kong! Don't act rashly now. We don't know how many battles will come. There will be plenty of opportunities for revenge."

You Shou grabbed Kong Jie's arm and roared softly. Kong Jie wiped his tears fiercely and gave an order.

"retreat!"

......

"Captain, this group of Eighth Route Army soldiers has retreated deep into the mountains. Should we continue to pursue them?"

Oshima Eiichi reported the battle situation to Sakata, and Sakata stared at the map and thought for a moment.

"Order the troops to retreat. Our mission is to drive the Tubalu out of northern Henan. Since they have fled to the mountains, let them go for now. We still have a heavy task to do. Send a telegram to General Shinozuka to report our battle situation."

"Hi!"

Nobutsu Sakata looked at the map of the northern Henan region and finally fixed his sights on the area near Cangyun Ridge.

This place is one of the few mountainous areas in northern Henan and is relatively hidden, so he guessed that the Eighth Route Army is likely to place important units here.

So he ordered the troops to take the time to rest and start sweeping towards Cangyunling tomorrow.

Yu Shouye protected the independent regiment and successfully joined the 771st regiment. In this battle, the independent regiment suffered heavy losses. Not only did it lose more than half of its troops, but also the political commissar Li Wenying was killed.

You Shou took the opportunity to report the battle situation to Shen Yan using Yin-Yang paper.

At this time, Shen Yan and Li Yunlong had also arrived at the outskirts of Yujialing, taking on guard duties and coordinating the transfer of the division headquarters and the field hospital.

The two were discussing the troops' next move when Tianming ran in holding the Yin-Yang paper.

"Captain, I received a letter from Captain Yushou."

Shen Yan took the paper and looked at the words on it. When he saw that Political Commissar Li Wenying and Lu Jiu had died, his heart was broken.

Li Yunlong didn't know many words, but he knew something big had happened when he saw Shen Yan's serious expression.

"What's wrong, Xiao Shen? Did something happen in the brigade?"

Shen Yan sighed and shook his head, then looked at Tianming: "Call Lu Ren over."

Tianming turned around and went out to find Lu Ren who was holding a meeting with the guard company. Shen Yan put the letter on the table and spoke in a low voice.

"The independent regiment fought an encounter with the Bantian Brigade, and more than half of the troops were killed. Political Commissar Li Wenying died, regiment commander Kong Jie was injured, and even Lu Ren's ninth brother died."

Li Yunlong was furious when he heard that his old comrade Li Wenying had died. He, Kong Jie, Ding Wei and Li Wenying were all old comrades who had gone through the Long March together.

"You son of a bitch, I'm going to smash Sakata's head into pieces sooner or later."
