Xue Yue was thinking about the defense deployment of Nanchang, the phone rang, he picked up the phone, heard Chiang Kai-shek's voice, and he reported the deployment of Nanchang to Chiang Kai-shek.

"Boling, I'm still relieved that you are doing things, there is something I don't think you know yet, we have all looked away, your younger brother is a Communist Party."

"Chairman, this is impossible, he has been by my side almost all these years, and there should be no chance to contact the Communist Party, are some villains jealous of his achievements and spreading rumors to slander him?"

"It's been verified, if you don't believe it, you can ask him in person, he joined the Communist Party when he was studying in Germany, I know you just appreciate his talent, and I also believe in your loyalty, we should all think about it, he has been hidden under our noses for so long, it's scary to think about it."

Xue Yue knew that Chiang Kai-shek was a little blamed for trusting Lin Junxiong too much and not noticing his abnormality in time, Xue Yue knew that the matter was true, he was very sad in his heart, and after a pause for a few seconds, he said: "Chairman, do you want me to do his ideological work again, he is an excellent commander, I don't think he should be too deeply influenced by the Communist Party." ”

"No need, it's too late, Yunong is already dealing with this matter, I hope you don't have any dissatisfaction with me because of this matter in your heart, I still believe in your loyalty to the party-state."

Putting down the phone, Xue Yue felt as if there was an iceberg in his heart, thinking about the bits and pieces of him and Lin Junxiong in the past few years, the iceberg in his heart seemed to be slowly melting, a little warm, but when he thought that this person he regarded as his own brother turned out to be the Communist Party, his heart was piercing cold. He didn't know what Chiang Kai-shek's so-called handling was, but Lin Junxiong would definitely be in danger, although they had different beliefs, but Xue Yue was still very worried about Lin Junxiong's situation for a while.

When the troops were gathering on the high ground, Lin Junxiong received a call from Xue Yue: I am very sad, Jiang has moved to kill, and I hope that my brother will cherish it. Come to Changsha and say goodbye to me in person!

Lin Junxiong can imagine that Xue Yue's love-hate mood is complicated when he knows his identity, and his heart is full of warmth for Xue Yue's understanding and concern, although he has no intention of hiding anything from Xue Yue, but after all, due to the difference in positions, he has not been able to be honest with Xue Yue. He called back to Xue Yue: My brother is under siege, and if he can break through, he will go to Changsha in person to apologize to his brother.

The Japanese army came to the heights of Weiyingling and organized an attack, and after being blocked several times, they began to delay the attack and continued to bombard the heights with mountain artillery. An hour later, the Japanese troops from the east converged with the Japanese troops in front of the high ground, and then the two wings launched a frantic counterattack, and the Japanese troops coming from the east wanted to go around the rear of the high ground from the flank, but met the stubborn resistance of the 332nd Regiment, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.

Lin Junxiong did not let the artillery participate in the attack, he was waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the troops to retreat in an orderly manner, and then suddenly shelling the Japanese army, on the one hand, delaying the Japanese attack, and on the other hand, making the Japanese army, after many attacks, think that the two sides know the roots, play a sudden effect, and catch the Japanese army by surprise.

When it was dark, Zeng Lingshan came back to report that half of the retreating mountain road had been rested, and some sections of the road had been in disrepair and collapsed for many years, and it would take a few hours to complete all the cleaning and resting, so Lin Junxiong asked Fang Yun to send a company to assist the guard company in opening the mountain road as soon as possible.

At night, Lin Junxiong observed that the deployment of the Japanese army was relatively concentrated due to the restrictions of the terrain, and the late autumn night was slightly chilly, and the Japanese army raised fires one after another to keep warm. He decided to change the original plan and let the artillery go into battle in advance, and he called several artillery company commanders and ordered them to explain for a while.

At three o'clock in the morning, when people were most tired, the Japanese troops slept in tents one after another, except for the necessary guards, and one fire after another accurately exposed their positions in front of the 45th Brigade. A gunshot broke the silence of the ridge, and then the shells whistled towards the Japanese troops, the panicked Japanese soldiers dodged in all directions, and the commander constantly organized the gathering of soldiers, because they were not good at night fighting, after nearly a thousand casualties, the two wing commanders had to order the troops to retreat.

Lin Junxiong immediately ordered the 89th Regiment, which had been ambushed to the bottom of the high ground, to attack, taking advantage of the dark moon and high wind, the 89th Regiment defeated several times the Japanese army, and did not stabilize and organize a counterattack until it retreated nearly a kilometer, but the 89th Regiment immediately retreated. Faced with the unknown night, the Japanese army did not dare to pursue, so they had to organize a defense on the spot and wait for dawn.

When the sky was getting brighter, Zeng Lingshan came back to say that when he cleaned up the collapsed section, he encountered a bigger landslide, and the retreating mountain road had not been cleared, Lin Junxiong was so angry that he scolded and ordered Zeng Lingshan to open the road within three hours, and there was no need to clean up all the landslide sections, as long as they could be passed.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Zeng Lingshan finally brought the news that the mountain road was unblocked, and the stone gate out of the mountain pass had been blown open, and the troops could be ready to retreat at any time. However, what puzzled Lin Junxiong was that the Japanese army did not attack all morning, but only advanced the forward position to the high ground.

Lin Junxiong realized that the Japanese army might be waiting for air support, and immediately ordered all units to find shelter to avoid the attack of Japanese air and ground artillery, and the troops had just been concealed, and more than a dozen Japanese bombers flew in the air to carry out crazy bombing on the heights of Weiyingling, and the Japanese artillery also joined the bombing, although they were prepared in advance, the troops still suffered heavy casualties, and when the Japanese bombers left, Wei Xin counted the casualties of the troops, and there were seven or eight hundred dead and wounded.

When countless Japanese troops launched a fierce attack, Lin Junxiong ordered the 45th Regiment to use all the shells and then retreat first. Under the artillery fire of the 45th Regiment, the Japanese attack was repulsed again, and Fang Yun also retreated westward according to the established plan.

The two captains of the Japanese army discussed together, they had determined that the Chinese army on the high ground should really have only one brigade as the intelligence said, and they did not dare to ask the division for help, if the more than 7,000 people of the two wings could not eat more than 3,000 Chinese troops, they knew what was waiting for them, and the two of them decided to destroy the Chinese army on the high ground at all costs.

The Japanese army under the command of the two wing commanders launched continuous attacks, and on two occasions even approached the high ground, and the two saw the hope of victory, and after mobilizing their troops, they tried to take the high ground in one fell swoop.

It has been two hours since the 45th Regiment left, taking advantage of the short break in the Japanese army's attack, Lin Junxiong came to the position of the noble 332nd Regiment, looking at the noble face with bloodshot eyes, Lin Junxiong knew that he must not have slept all night, Lin Junxiong suddenly missed the optimistic nobleness before. He knew that what Gao Shang needed most now was time to calm down, to forget.

"To repel the next attack of the Japanese army, I will take the 89th regiment to withdraw first, I will take the 89th regiment to speed up the retreat, you only need to take the troops to hold here for an hour and retreat immediately, we are waiting to meet you at the mountain pass."

"Brother, don't worry, even if the whole regiment is finished, I will lead the troops to hold on for two hours."

"If you still think that you are a member of the 45th Brigade and still follow the orders of me, the brigade commander, then carry out the order and retreat immediately after holding out for an hour."

"Okay, I'll follow orders."

"Remember, give me a good life, there is still a long way to go, the Japanese are still on the land of China, don't give up easily, think about sacrifice."

"Brother, don't worry, I won't send you to death easily."

Before leaving, Lin Junxiong patted the noble shoulder and said cherished.

Gao Shang looked at the back of Lin Junxiong leaving, his eyes were full of tears, and he was very reluctant in his heart, he didn't know if he could live to see Lin Junxiong again, and silently said to Lin Junxiong in his heart that he cherished it.

The two captains of the Japanese army ordered the troops to attack with all their might, striving to take the high ground in one fell swoop and destroy the Chinese army, but when their advance had not yet reached the mountainside, the mountain suddenly remembered the continuous sound of artillery fire.

The two wing commanders had to order the troops to withdraw to temporarily avoid the front, but Lin Junxiong quickly left the position with the 89th Regiment and retreated to the mountain road to the west.

Gao Shang watched Lin Junxiong lead his troops far away, and he ordered the 332nd Regiment to take over the weak defensive position left by the 89th Regiment.

Lin Junxiong always had an ominous premonition, and he felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart, as if he would say goodbye to Gao Shang forever. When he withdrew to the middle of the mountain road with the 89th Regiment, he ordered the troops to stop and prepare to meet the retreat of the noble 332nd Regiment. He asked Tang Jijun to plant explosives on a cliff, and as soon as the 332nd Regiment withdrew, he would immediately blow up the mountain road to block the pursuit of the Japanese army.

More than an hour passed, the sound of the 332nd regiment and the Japanese army was getting closer and closer, and when he turned a corner, Gao Shang saw Lin Junxiong with his troops to meet him, but the Japanese army had already followed, and there were troops going around the cliff, and the situation became extremely serious for a while.

Seeing that the troops could no longer resist the attack of the Japanese army, Gao Shang shouted: "I recommend Xuanyuan with my blood, big brother and all brothers take care!" ”

After Gao Shang shouted, he let people blow up the retreating mountain road, and then rushed up to the Japanese with the remaining troops.

When the explosion sounded, Lin Junxiong instantly understood Gao Shang's intentions, his eyes blurred, knowing that there was no way to save Gao Shang, he gritted his teeth with tears and ordered: "Light the explosives and retreat!" ”

When Lin Junxiong turned around and walked down the mountain, Gao Shang had already taken the remaining soldiers and the Japanese army to fight together, because the mountain road was narrow, at the beginning of Gao Shang they still had some advantages, but as one soldier after another fell tragically, and the Japanese army continued to pour up, their advantage became weaker and weaker, less than ten minutes, only Gao Shang was left, he was covered in blood, staring back and forth at the Japanese army roaring. The Japanese soldiers were a little frightened and surrounded him in the middle, but they were constantly frightened and retreated, until an officer drew his command knife and ordered to advance, and a group of Japanese soldiers surrounded Gao Shang more and more tightly. Gao Shang kept roaring and killing one Japanese soldier after another, and he was also wounded a lot, kneeling on the ground, several Japanese soldiers rushed up together, several bayonets stabbed into his body, he spat blood from his mouth, and slowly fell.
