The security regiment was transferred from Xuzhou, and marched all night to catch up with the large troops.
The security regiment could only choose to march at night, because during the day there would be Japanese aircraft reconnaissance and devil soldiers blocking fire.
On the way to evacuate, the little devils from all walks of life assembled 10,000+ troops and launched a crazy pursuit of the security team. However, Li Hong did not exchange fire with the enemy and chose to avoid the enemy.
Because, once bitten by the enemy's chasing troops, the security team will be surrounded again.
There are only more than 2000 people left in the security regiment, there is no backup force, and they have been forced to march for several days. If they fight the enemy again, they will definitely suffer a big loss.
After marching for three consecutive nights, Li Hong and the others successfully merged with the main force of the 5th theater...
After Li Hong led the security team to catch up with the large troops, he ordered the troops to repair on the spot, and then he rushed to the 5th Theater Command to report.
In the border area between Henan and Anhui, the temporary headquarters of the 5th theater.
"report!"
Without waiting for the adjutant to report, Li Hong stood upright at the entrance of the headquarters and shouted a report.
At this time, Li Zongyao, Bai Wenqing and other generals were holding an important military meeting in the headquarters.
Hearing a loud voice from the mouth of the command department, all the chiefs in the theater cast their eyes in unison.
Suddenly, the theater commander Li Zongyao laughed excitedly: "Hahaha, Li Hong, you and your security team finally broke through!"
As the commander of the war zone, Li Zongyao is usually unsmiling. Since the war between the 5th war zone and the Japanese army, he has never seen such a relaxed and happy look on his face.
When everyone saw Li Hong standing at the headquarters unscathed, everyone was in awe.
It was unique that so many senior generals in the headquarters saluted him. Of course, this was also their respect and affirmation for Li Hong.
If Li Hong's security regiment hadn't stayed behind to stop the enemy and contain the large Japanese army, it is possible that hundreds of thousands of troops in the 5th theater would have been dumped by the little devil's army.

Update the latest chapter with a system to fight devils as soon as possible!
Li Hong raised his hand again and returned a military salute to the generals and officers.
"The humble Li Hong fulfilled his mission and reported to Commander Li!"
Li Zongyao left the conference table, strode up to Li Hong, and patted Li Hong's shoulder heavily.
"The younger generation is awesome, it can be said to be the return of a hero!"
Li Zongyao looked at Li Hong with admiration, and repeatedly expressed emotion and praise.
The rest of the generals said in unison: "It's really a blessing for the 5th theater and the national army that Captain Li was able to break through and come back!"
Li Hong raised his voice and said impassionedly: "You officers are serious. For the sake of the country and the nation, and for the sake of thousands of people, it is the responsibility of the security regiment to cover the evacuation of the large troops. The bloodshed and sacrifice of the entire regiment is worth it." of!"
"Li Hong, quickly, sit down!"
Soon, Li Zongyao invited Li Hong to take a seat and participate in the meeting together.
Li Hong sat down and took a sip of tea while listening to the speeches and reports of the generals.
The first one to stand up was Bai Wenqing, and he said to everyone with a stern face: "Everyone, although our large troops have been successfully transferred from the Xuzhou area, the Japanese troops have not given up on the pursuit of the main force of our 5th theater." .”
"Last night, the Japanese North China Command urgently dispatched the 4th Division, the 16th Division, and 4 cavalry regiments to pursue and intercept our army frantically..."
At present, the troops in the 5th theater have not completely jumped out of the enemy's encirclement, and the situation is still very critical.
The devil troops responsible for chasing and intercepting received the order to die from the Japanese base camp. The enemy caught up with the main force of the fifth theater at all costs, and the two sides may start a fierce battle at any time.
There are hundreds of thousands of troops in the fifth theater, and there are also many elite troops.
However, after many days of continuous marching, the soldiers in the 5th theater were exhausted, and there were still many wounded and sick. Therefore, the combat effectiveness of the troops in the 5th theater dropped sharply.
It was only when Bai Wenqing realized the situation in the war zone that his face became so ugly.
At this moment, suddenly, the sound of gunfire came from a distance.
After a while, the sound of guns outside the headquarters became louder and louder.
"Da da da……"
"Boom boom boom..."
Obviously, the vanguard troops in front must have exchanged fire with the troops intercepted by the devil soldiers.
Soon, the communications soldiers of the Ministry of Communications hurried to the conference table and loudly reported the situation on the front line to Li Zongyao.
"Report to Commander Li, the newly formed 51st Division of our army's vanguard suddenly encountered the 4th Division of the Japanese Army. Division Commander Zhou Guobang led the entire division to launch a breakout attack on the intercepted Japanese troops!"
After hearing this shocking news, all the generals in the headquarters could no longer maintain their composure, and their faces instantly became extremely serious.
The senior generals of the national army present here have all experienced battles and seen the world, but they all know the combat effectiveness of the troops in the fifth theater.
It is no exaggeration to say that this moment is the moment when hundreds of thousands of troops in the 5th theater are alive and dead.
The troops in the fifth theater are now exhausted and unable to engage in major battles. The overall combat effectiveness may not be able to withstand the impact of one or two divisions of the Japanese army.
What's more, the 5th theater has lost its air supremacy. If it really fights against the elite devil troops, the national army will definitely be smashed by the enemy.
In this special situation, no one can be calm.
Except for Li Hong in the headquarters, there was no trace of panic in his expression, and his whole person looked as calm as water, with the demeanor of a general.
The generals of the headquarters discussed with each other, and they discussed how to deal with the Japanese interception forces.
It was only when Bai Wenqing realized the situation in the war zone that his face became so ugly.
At this moment, suddenly, the sound of gunfire came from a distance.
After a while, the sound of guns outside the headquarters became louder and louder.
