Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Strength of the Nation

Everyone quickly retreated in a moment from the grenade explosion, and the Japanese army also reacted quickly and began to pursue, and a few more people fell under the gunfire of the Japanese army, and the situation became extremely critical for a while. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this moment, the reinforcements led by Sun Yang had already rushed to a position of only 100 meters, and at this time, Lu Hai and several people hurriedly fell down, and Sun Yang's reinforcements also opened fire fiercely.

Under the fierce fire of the three light machine guns in front, all of them actually charged towards the Japanese pursuing troops with all their might, and at this time, Lu Hai and several people also pulled off their devil uniforms and followed the charge with bayonets.

The strength of the two sides is basically the same now, and the firepower is not much different, and now the two armies meet on this great plain, whoever runs will die, and the only thing they can do is to completely defeat the other side. Moreover, it must be fought quickly in case the Japanese reinforcements arrive, and then their more than 100 people will be some live targets on the Great Plains.

Just when Sun Yang and the others rushed to only 40 meters, Sun Yang shouted: "Grenade"!

The soldiers in the back tore down their grenades and threw them at the Japanese soldiers on the opposite side.

"Boom"

"Boom"

In a series of violent explosions, the Japanese army suffered a large number of casualties in an instant, and took this opportunity to rush over directly with the Japanese army in one go, and in an instant a gunfight on the plain turned into a bayonet battle.

But seeing the bayonet stabbing violently, the shouting of killing shook the sky, the blood dyed the green wheat seedlings red, dyed the land red, and the lives of each other were ended, at this moment, Lu Hai began to assault to the right with a platoon of troops, and the two armies at the front line were already stabbing each other with many casualties, and the sudden stabbing came just to see the Japanese squad leader, Lu Hai shouted, and the bayonet in his hand stabbed out violently towards the Japanese soldier wielding a katana.

The captain of the Japanese squad saw that Lu Hai stabbed him straight and did not show weakness, and he dodged Lu Hai's bayonet on one side, and slashed at it, Lu Hai blocked the rifle and then raised his foot to kick the Japanese squad leader directly to the ground, and before that, he stabbed the Japanese soldier to death with a bayonet, and then led everyone to the middle of the Japanese crowd.

A moment later, dozens of corpses had fallen in the field, and the Japanese army was obviously more than theirs, and the Japanese squad leader was killed and began to retreat, while Lu Hai and they divided the Japanese army, and chased and killed in an orderly manner.

However, at this time, it was too late to retreat, Lu Hai and their men chased all the way until the Japanese soldiers were killed and wounded, leaving only more than 20 people to run out without their lives, watching the Japanese retreat, they did not dare to pursue, they took the wounded and their own corpses and began to retreat quickly, the soldiers of the 60th Army also died more than 50 people in this battle, and there were more than a dozen wounded.

After defeating the Japanese army, there was no obstacle along the way, Li Fan was carried by Lu Hai all the way, and when he walked to the forward position, Lu Hai said: "Just send the wounded, let's bury these dead brothers."

Several people sent these wounded soldiers to the rear, Lu Hai dug a pit in the wheat field not far away and put the corpses of these soldiers into it and buried them, looking at the graves that had been piled up, Lu Hai was a little sad for a while, since they came here, they were dying every day and the number of people was attrition, but this time these soldiers died to save them, they had already withdrawn from the Japanese army, but because of saving him, they once again stepped into danger, and rescued them without regrets.

"Brothers, you go first, and I'll be there!" Lu Hai saluted.

Everyone followed the salute, and then turned around and went up the mountain, who knew that after going up the mountain, many soldiers along the way suggested that they came here to salute, and Wang Kaiyu personally greeted him after walking through the front-line position.

Wang Kaiyu saluted and said: "Thank you for your hard work, the division commander is waiting for you at the headquarters, come with me!" ”

Saying that, Wang Kaiyu turned around and went first, and a few of them had to follow, and all the soldiers in the command headquarters saluted them, which also made Lu Hai and his party very excited, and when they entered the headquarters, Zhang Chong, Xue Zizheng and Wan Baobang saw Lu Hai and his party coming, and they all stood and saluted, which made them a little flattered. Lu Hai and the others hurriedly stood solemnly and saluted: "Divisional commander"!

Zhang Chong put down his hand, stepped forward and patted Lu Hai on the shoulder and said: "Well done, many attacks by the Japanese army have been repelled by us, and now the Japanese army is also at the end of the crossbow, I want to give you credit"!

Saying that, Xue Zizheng picked up a book and said: "Lu Hai, he has made meritorious contributions in fighting behind enemy lines, and has performed well in battle, and is hereby promoted to lieutenant colonel and commander of the third battalion"!

"Li Fan, meritorious in combat, hereby promoted to the commander of a battalion and a company, with the rank of major"!

"Sun Yang, captain with military rank, commander of the second company of the third battalion"!

"Hai Zhizhi, rank lieutenant, platoon commander of a company ....

Almost all the living people who participated in the operation were rewarded, and their ranks were rising rapidly, and they were all squad leaders when they came, but now they have become major captains.

After reading out the order, Xue Zizheng spoke: "The third battalion suffered heavy casualties in the battle a few days ago, and the soldiers of the whole battalion also suffered heavy casualties, and the formation has been disabled.

"Yes"!

After finishing speaking, Lu Hai remembered the saber he had captured before, and untied the Japanese saber on his body and said: "This is the Japanese saber captured today, and it is very likely to be Itagaki Seishiro's saber!"

In fact, Zhang Chong already knew that Itagaki Seishiro's saber was lost, and Lu Hai carried this katana on his back as soon as he came in, although Zhang Chong had a guess in his heart, but it was not easy to speak, and then Lu Hai said it himself, Zhang Chong was immediately overjoyed, and took the samurai sword over, and said to Xue Zizheng: "Look at the appraisal, is this saber Itagaki Seishiro's?"

Xue Zizheng nodded and picked up the saber and examined it carefully for a while before he said happily: "This saber should be Sakagaki's saber, and this saber is engraved with chrysanthemums, indicating that this saber is likely to be given by the Japanese emperor himself, and this saber is now in our hands It is a great blow to the morale of the Japanese army!"

Zhang Chong took the saber and pulled it out and looked at it: "Guard, bring a few people to send this saber to the commander, this is the honor of our Chinese soldiers, and it is also the honor of the Yunnan army."

"Yes"!

......

After Lu Han got this saber, he sent a telegram to Li Zongren for all these achievements, Li Zongren said some words of encouragement, but soon after the chairman of the committee personally sent a congratulatory telegram, carelessly affirming the achievements of the 60th Army in repeatedly defeating strong enemies under such circumstances, and encouraging them to continue to fight for the final victory. This is the honor of the 60th Army and the glory of the Dian Army.

Moreover****** once called the 60th Army in the telegram: "the strength of the country"!

During the War to Protect the Country, the Yunnan Army had a saying that "the sharpness of the Dian Army topped the whole country", and now the chairman of the committee praised it as a strong force for the country, which not only greatly increased the morale of the soldiers on the front line, but also made Lu Han, who was the commander of the army, secretly relieved. The Sixty Army suffered heavy casualties here, even Lu Han, who was Long Yun's cousin, was sweating in his heart, after all, the Sixty Army was the trump card army in Long Yun's hands, and it was not easy to explain to Long Yun after the casualties were too heavy, and now their record is getting better and better, and they have won this award, so they have an explanation for Long Yun.

However, Lu Han's worries are superfluous, Long Yun changed his past style in this Sino-Japanese all-out war, and everything he did was for the sake of national righteousness, not only did not blame Lu Han, but comforted Lu Han not to have a burden in his heart, casualties were inevitable, and he fought for the final victory of the nation, and the formation of the 58th Army was about to come to an end, and a national strong army was about to take shape...

In the headquarters of the rear of the Japanese army, Itagaki Seishiro kept walking in the house with a blue face, and from time to time he saw a thunderous scolding of Yaga, and the Japanese officers standing in the field did not dare to gasp, and after a while, Itagaki Seishiro said angrily: "No matter what, this time they must be allowed to disappear on Yuwang Mountain"!

"Pass the order, let the rest of the Banyuan Division abandon the original plan, complete the assembly tomorrow, tomorrow night I will make this barbarian army completely disappear, I will use their blood to wash away the shame of our Sakagaki Division"! Seishiro Itagaki was furious.

"Division commander, now we give up our original plan to gather heavy troops to attack Yuwang Mountain? Wouldn't this be a matter of neglecting one or the other, and asking the division commander to think twice"! The Japanese staff had the audacity to persuade him.

"This is our shame, and it is also a shame to fight the Japanese Imperial Army, our Sakagaki Division has swept all the way since the start of the war against China, and it has been blocked by an army here? How will I face the commander in the future? Facing the Emperor? If I can't take it down, you and I can apologize for it!" Itagaki Seishiro gritted his teeth.

"But...

"Inform the troops, use jihadist gas, and make sure this barbarian army disappears completely," Seishiro Itagaki said with a heavy slap on the table.

The Japanese officer in the field didn't dare to say anything for a while, but at this moment, a signal soldier came in with a telegram and said: "General, the headquarters is in an emergency"!

Seishiro Sakagaki took the telegram and looked at it, and immediately said angrily: "What? Aren't these officers and men in the headquarters confused, now let's retreat? ”

"What"? The officers in the field were dumbfounded.
