It can be seen from the captured Japanese equipment that the Japanese army is well-equipped and fierce, and the tactics of Lu Hai's sudden onslaught also have the division of the Yunnan army.

However, the Japanese can, not only are they fierce in firepower, their soldiers are well-trained, and half of Lu Hai's team are new recruits, in such a situation, it is almost impossible to encircle and annihilate this group of Japanese troops on an empty river beach!

After waiting for a long time and still not seeing the Japanese attack, Lu Hai ordered the small troops to set off to get back the corpses of these horses as much as possible, and in a full hour, dozens of corpses of war horses were dragged back by them, and then Lu Hai ordered a company of troops to speed up the division and transport these horses to the rear.

One of the biggest characteristics of the Republic of China is that the front is tight and the rear is tight, the soldiers in the front are fighting bloodily, and the corrupt officials in the rear are crazy to deprive the soldiers of oil and water, although the 58th Army has no corruption of military salaries by the commanders in the hands of righteous people like Sun Du and Lu Daoyuan, but the military salaries are also extremely limited, and it is difficult to have sufficient logistical supplies, so for a long time they are all steamed buns and rice porridge, and they are really not fried noodles!

After a long time, they are naturally malnourished, and the Japanese army eats well and is strong, so Lu Hai will order the collection of the corpses of these war horses, and dozens of war horses are enough for the whole army to barely eat!

By the time most of these war horses were sent down, it was already four o'clock in the evening, and the Japanese troops in front of them were also repulsed, and the battlefield suddenly became quiet again!

"Commander, the Japanese army attacking the 20th Army is outflanking our army again, and once they copy our rear road, we are very likely to be surrounded"! Liu Zhengfu said.

Sun Du frowned, picked up the phone, shook his mouth and said, "I'm Sun Du, pick up Yang Hanyu"!

After a while, Yang Hanyu's voice came, Sun Du took a deep breath and said: "I am Sun Du, due to the retreat of your troops, our army may be outflanked by the Japanese army at any time, I don't know what General Yang thinks"?

"It's not that our army wants to retreat like this, the Japanese army used poison gas bombs to bombard our positions in turn, and the losses of the front-line soldiers are too serious, and we have no choice"! Yang Hanyu said.

Hearing Yang Hanyu say this, Sun Du was speechless for a while, the Sichuan army was poorly equipped and had weak firepower, it was not easy to fight like this with the Japanese army, and they who were laughed at by the armies as called Huazi could fight like this, what else could they find fault with?

"In this way, you are responsible for containment, if the Japanese offensive is too fierce, you call me, I will support you with heavy artillery, you can only stand by holding on to us, we must hold out until dark"! Sun Du said.

"Thank you so much, but we won't be retreating, we won't retreat until it gets dark, it's a big deal that I, Yang Hanyu, will stay here!"

Hearing Yang Hanyu say this, Sun Du also knew that Yang Hanyu had been stimulated, after all, who would want people to question whether their troops could not fight?

"I don't mean anything else, we know your difficulties, you bring us firepower, I will try my best to send artillery to you cannon fodder support, this is not the two of us, but the lives of the brothers"! Sun Du said.

The opposite side was immersed for a while, and Yang Hanyu's voice came: "Thank you"!

"They are all fighting for the country, the brothers of the Sichuan army fought very bravely, I admire you, we also know your difficulties, and we will do our best to support you"! Sun Du said.

After speaking, Sun Du put down the phone and said: "Order, dispatch ten heavy artillery, ready to support the 20th Army at any time"!

"But without these, our firepower will be seriously weakened, and besides, the Japanese army has not been able to cross the river so far, and it will definitely attack our army frantically"! Liu Zhengfu said.

"We were still fighting without these heavy artillery before, and these heavy artillery were captured by the 60th Army, all of them were revolutionary soldiers, and they were all fighting for the country, so I had to help with this favor"!

Liu Zhengfu saw that Sun Du had already decided, and he didn't say anything, at this moment, a communication soldier ran in and said, "Report!" The battalion commander Lu Hai defeated the Japanese attack, the Japanese army lost more than half, and they killed dozens of Japanese war horses and sent them over"!

Sun Du and Liu Zhengfu looked at each other and smiled: "This is a good thing, order the cooking team to speed up and marinate all this horse meat for me."

"Yes, Commander, we have meat again." The communications soldier also said happily.

"I'm getting more and more fond of these boys." Sun Du said with a smile.

"By the way, send orders to all departments, closely observe the movements of the Japanese army, and report any movements quickly"!

"Yes"!

At five o'clock in the afternoon, the 20th Army still did not call for artillery support, so far and the Japanese army has fought hard, the Japanese army reorganized the offensive, and launched an offensive against our army again, the sky was already dark, and it was dark in an hour, and in this last hour, 20 Japanese planes flew to our bureau again and bombed wildly!

After the bombardment, the Japanese artillery followed up to carry out the bombardment, and the soldiers of all units were hiding from the artillery fire in the bomb shelter, and after the bombardment for half an hour, Sun Du picked up his watch and looked at it and said: "Order all units to sort out their equipment and prepare to retreat"!

"Withdraw now? What about half an hour"? Liu Zhengfu frowned.

"The Japanese army didn't know that our troops were going to retreat, and their round of shelling lasted for an hour, and by the time their shelling was over, it was already dark, and we were waiting here for them to shell"? Sun Du said with a smile.

"Order our artillery to give them some deceptive bombardment!"

"Yes"!

The retreat is already underway, which means that the confusing blocking in the early stage of the Battle of Changsha is over, and the next thing is to block layer by layer, and continue to sweeten the Japanese army.

Under the bombardment of artillery, the Japanese did not find that our troops had quietly begun to retreat, and the divisions withdrew in an orderly manner according to the formation, and the battle was transferred to the mountains by means of the dark night!

When the Japanese began to charge, there was no fierce resistance as they imagined, there was just an empty position!

Knowing that when the Japanese army was on the position where Lu Hai was once stationed, a Japanese soldier obviously felt that something had been stepped on under his feet, and before he could look at it, a bullet penetrated the sole of his foot with the sound of an explosion!

When several Japanese soldiers touched Lu Hai's headquarters, they were directly invited out by two grenades, and Lu Hai's hand directly led to the death of more than 20 Japanese soldiers!

At eight o'clock in the evening, the whole line of the Xinqiang River defense line was lost, after hearing the news, Anan Weiji's face finally smiled, as the commander-in-chief, Anan Weiji knew very well that their ammunition supply was very limited, but in order not to let the Hong Kong Front steal the limelight of the 11th Army, this battle was fought, for whether to continue to fight, Anan Weiji was also worried in his heart, but the Japanese offensive in Xinqianghe suffered from the stubborn resistance of our army, and the losses were also somewhat unexpected. In Anan's mind, tomorrow is the deadline, if the Japanese army at the front is not able to break through the defense line of the Chinese army, he will order the withdrawal of the army!

But now there is news from the front that the Kumamoto Division broke through the defense line of the 58th Army of the 20th Army and began to advance towards Changsha! Finally let them hang down, and the same Annan Weiji was also a little entangled, whether to continue the attack or withdraw the army?

The risk of offensive will continue to increase, and it is not cost-effective to retreat, but the telegrams from the front line are all in a majestic posture, indicating that the morale of the troops on the front line is high, and if they give the order to retreat, not only will their faces be disgraced, but more importantly, letting these Japanese troops retreat now will increase the complaints of the soldiers and dampen the enthusiasm of the Japanese troops, in such a situation.

Anan was still hesitating, but he didn't order a retreat, but instead watched the war situation and make adjustments!

It is precisely this kind of posture that allowed our country to finally have this crucial victory, what they never expected was that the 58th Army, which they had always thought was defeated by them, would suddenly jump out and eat more than 10,000 of them in one bite at the most important juncture!

Of course, this is a later story, at 12 o'clock that night, the 58th Army withdrew to the area of the Shogunate Mountain in Dayun Mountain for repair, and after two days of continuous combat and rapid marching, everyone was very tired, and the cold in the mountains could not be lit at night, and even the cooking class was completed in the cave, and the agitation at this time naturally became the temporary headquarters of the 58th Army!

All the senior officers of the 58th Army also gathered here, including Lu Hai, with the strength of two battalions, three Japanese tanks in half an hour, eating half of the Japanese army, this kind of record is not possible for these so-called regiment commanders, not to mention that on the eve of the Anti-Japanese War, a Japanese brigade dared to attack a brigade of our army!

So there is no one who disagrees with Lu Hai here, and Lu Hai is not nominally a soldier of the 58th Army, but an advisor!

To put it bluntly, although Wan Baobang agreed that Lu Hai would come to the 58th Army to participate in the war, but he did not agree with Lu Hai and they joined the 58th Army, why, Wan Baobang was also playing his own small abacus, he was robbing in the martial arts hall at the beginning, and finally how could his own soldiers attack and defend and want to let go, so after agreeing, Wan Baobang also put forward such a request, that is to say, he can still ask Lu Hai back in the future!

"Now that we have withdrawn into the area of Dayun Mountain in the Shogunate Mountain, Chief Xue's order is for us to play games in this area, send troops to attack the Japanese army from time to time, and wait for the Japanese army to enter Changsha and move towards Changsha at a rapid pace, what do you suggest?" Sun Du said.

"I think we should take the initiative to attack, sneak attack the Japanese army with a small force, hit and run, create the illusion of guerrilla, and also target the attack on the Japanese army's baggage troops, once the Japanese army's baggage troops are found, they will draw troops to besiege it, and to a large extent block the Japanese army's fire supply, so that the pressure on the frontline soldiers will be much less"! Lu Daoyuan said.

"That's a good idea, do you have anything to add?" Sun Du asked again.

Seeing that no one spoke in the audience, Sun Du smiled and said, "Lu Hai, come and talk about it."

Lu Hai stood up and said: "In this case, I will be ugly, what I am worried about now is not guerrilla warfare, but that we are now 100 kilometers away from Changsha, and after the Japanese army enters Changsha, how should we ask the surrounding Japanese defense line to quickly assemble towards the Changsha defense line, our assembly is directly related to the success or failure of this battle."
