"Yuanyuan, are you alright? Don't scare me. ”

"Captain, no.. thing, no.. Hit bullseye. Beat.. On the shoulder. ”

Hearing Yuanyuan's faint voice, Zhou Min breathed a sigh of relief.

If Yuanyuan hadn't saved her life just now, this shot might have been shot in her chest.

"Yuanyuan, you saved my life. ”

"Captain, didn't you save my life?"

"Come, I'll carry you, let's get out of here quickly.

When Zhou Min rushed back to the place where Wanli was besieged with Yuanyuan on his back, he found that the reinforcements of the third regiment and the first regiment had arrived, and now they were joining forces inside and outside, preparing to eliminate the Sato brigade of the devils.

The signal soldier quickly ran to Sato and said, "Report to the commander, the commander ordered a reversal." ”

Hearing such an order, Sato was relieved for some reason, and he shouted, "Retreat! Retreat!"

After a few symbolic firing back, Sato evacuated with his people.

Before the three regiments and the first regiment could pursue, the artillery positions from the Yuelu Mountains were once again powerful and covered the retreating devils with artillery fire.

Xue Yue and Wu Yizhi on Yuelu Mountain looked at Changsha City with a telescope.

"Sir Xue, it seems that the devil is going to run. ”

"Hmph, it's too late, it's already in my bowl, how can this boiled duck make it fly?

At this time, three red signal bombs rose into the air outside Changsha City. The 9 armies, which had already rushed to the attack site, launched an attack on the devils at the same time.

A rain of shells fell from the artillery positions of the reinforcements, and the devils who were reversing fled like headless flies. Luckily escaped, but unfortunately they were directly blown up into the sky, or even dismembered. Reinforcements and defenders should be combined inside and outside. The 70,000 troops of the devil were beaten like lost dogs. I only know how to flee for my life, and there is no longer the so-called pride.

Because it was surrounded by nine armies, the Eleventh Army resisted for only three hours, and then lost tens of thousands of troops, leaving less than 20,000 people to flee north.

The 3rd Battle of Changsha, the outcome has been set at this moment, and the victory belongs to China!

Xue Yue immediately gave the order for all troops to pursue.

Li Yutang, commander of the Tenth Army, handed over the task of pursuit to Zhou Tao. Zhou Tao joined the pursuit with the people who were still alive in the independent division.

Under the siege and interception of various armies, there are still some devils who escaped from Changsha City and fled to the Xinqiang River. Among them were the commander of the 6th Division, Kanda Masase, and the Sato Osa.

"General, what are we going to do next?"

"Sato, do you know? Since I entered the Chinese battlefield, I have been making great progress, and I have never experienced such a failure. ”

"General, lowly believes that the defeat of a battle does not mean anything. As long as one of our Sixth Division breaks through, it will have the opportunity to fight again. ”

"Sato, you're right, as long as these thousands of soldiers can cross the Xinqiang River safely, we can ensure that the number of the Sixth Division will not be canceled due to the annihilation of the whole army, but the current situation is that there are blockers in front and pursuers in the back, and we have run out of ammunition and food. ”

"General, for the honor of the Sixth Division, I am willing to lead my subordinates to break off the rear and cover the retreat of the large army. ”

"Yo Xi, Sato-kun, you are worthy of being the most loyal warrior of the Imperial Army. ”

If Zhou Min could hear the conversation between the two, she would only give Sato two words: stupid X.

That's right, this stupid X really took his own troops to stay behind the broken queen.

Coincidentally, he was overtaken by the Independence Division and captured.

It's just that this guy is obsessed with the spirit of bushido and is loyal to His Majesty the Emperor. Committed suicide while people were unprepared.

When Zhou Min and the others were cleaning up the battlefield, Xue Yue and other senior officers of the Ninth War Zone came to Changsha City, and everyone put down their work, stood in a line, and saluted him.

When Xue Yue walked in front of them. Someone shouted, "All stand upright, salute!"

Everyone saluted Xue Yue solemnly.

Zhou Min also sincerely admires him. Since the Anti-Japanese War, no one can annihilate more than 50,000 devils in one battle, except for Xue Yue.

Xue Yue walked in front of Li Yutang.

Li Yutang's face was serious, but his eyes were very sad, he solemnly saluted a military salute, and then said in a low voice: "Chief Xue"

Xue Yue's expression was equally serious, he knew too well what kind of price the Tenth Army had paid in this battle, he vigorously replied to Li Yutang with a military salute, and then he looked at the Tenth Army behind Li Yutang, and said sonorously: "The Tenth Army, good at it, is my trump card!"

The war ended, and the evacuated people of Changsha moved into the city one after another, returning to their dilapidated homes.

Xue Yue took a group of generals and walked in front of Tianxin Pavilion.

This attic is a landmark building in Changsha City.

There is also a famous pair about Tianxin Pavilion:

Tianxin Pavilion, the pigeon on the pavilion, the pigeon does not fly.

The water and land continents, the boats next to the continents, and the boats do not move.

Everyone looked at the ruined Changsha City, full of tears, it was too difficult to defend Changsha, how many people were sacrificed to keep the city, and at this time Tianxin Pavilion was full of pigeons, as if celebrating the great victory of the Battle of Changsha with human beings.

On the basis of this great victory, Chairman Chiang held a press conference in Chongqing, at which he made an impassioned speech:

"The 3rd Battle of Changsha, from December 24, 30th year of the Republic of China, to January 15, 31st year of the Republic of China, a total of 56,994 enemies were annihilated. This victory is the first great victory of the World Anti-*** League in the Chinese theater of operations against the Axis powers, I myself and the residents of the whole country, deeply gratified, our national government and I are full of confidence in the victory of the war and the restoration of world peace, since the outbreak of the Pacific War, the Japanese invaders are invincible, but in the Battle of Changsha was defeated by our army in its original form, this is not only to raise our country's prestige, strengthen our people's belief in the victory of the War of Resistance, but also to show the world China's determination and strength in the anti-war war!"

Chairman Chiang's speech made the people present enthusiastically applaud one after another.

The whole country marched and celebrated the victory in the Battle of Changsha.

Especially in big cities like Shanghai and Beiping, people took to the streets to celebrate the victory of Changsha, which gave people hope of defeating the Japanese invaders.

In the cave in Yan'an, Kai also commented on this battle.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the victory in the Battle of Changsha is remarkable, history will prove that this is the turning point of the entire War of Resistance Against Japan, because this victory has made the world's anti-*** united front truly completed. The British and American armies in Southeast Asia had advanced weapons and could be defeated by the Japanese army, while in China, both in the frontal battlefield and in the battlefield behind enemy lines, they had defeated the Japanese army again and again, and now the British and American governments may not seriously consider the strategic plan of assisting China to contain the Japanese army, and the victory in the defense of Changsha has once again proved with ironclad facts that the final victory will inevitably belong to China if we persist in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the united front, and the protracted war! Belong to the great Chinese people!"
