"Boom"!

"Boom"!

......

Just when everyone hurriedly retreated, the Japanese artillery fire was also frantically covering our troops, but fortunately, they were not too far from the original position, and most of them had already rushed into the trenches and began to drill defensive artillery holes. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, the artillery fire of our army was not polite, and began to suppress it, preventing the Japanese counterattack and covering the retreat of our soldiers!

This round of artillery bombardment by the Japanese army caused our army to lose more than 200 people, plus the previous casualties, the loss of this day reached more than 1,000 people, but the losses of the Japanese army were also very large, the so-called Kumamoto Division, elite! But it was on par with the 58th Army, and more importantly, the Japanese army lost more than 2,000 people in two days of fighting, and has not been able to step on the New Wall River for half a step!

At noon, both armies died down and began to eat lunch, Lu Hai said while nibbling on steamed buns: "No, the Japanese artillery suppressed us too much, and we could have won a great victory, but the Japanese army almost defeated us with a round of artillery fire"!

"But now it's just across a new wall river, and after tomorrow we will retreat and let the Japanese army in, do you still want to cross the river to find the Japanese artillery?" Zhao Jianying said.

"That's right! The Japanese army was violent, and in the next day and a half, the Japanese army would definitely do everything possible to strike frantically at our positions, and if we did not mark the Japanese artillery to strike, many brothers would die, and we could only take risks"! Lu Hai said.

"It's good! Anyway, it's a war wherever it goes, but I still have to talk to the division commander about it." Haizhiji said.

"Without further ado, let's go to the division commander to discuss"! Lu Hai said.

"I haven't finished my meal yet." Hai Zhizhi said, but Lu Hai had already walked out, and Hai Zhizhi had to follow.

......

"How is the current situation at the front"? Xue Yue asked.

"The resistance of all units is relatively stubborn, and the Japanese army is still blocked on the periphery of the Xinqiang River and cannot be saved, especially since the 58th Army has killed and wounded more than 2,000 Japanese troops, and it is still a fierce battle, and the situation continues to advance like this, which is extremely beneficial to us." Wu Yizhi was in a good mood.

Xue Yue was silent for a while, and after a while, he spoke: "What I'm worried about now is not whether their front line can be blocked, but whether Anan Wei will order the withdrawal of troops if he can't attack for a long time, so that our plan to lure the enemy will not be in vain?"

"No, it's only been two days of fighting, and it's unlikely that Anan will order the withdrawal of troops, right?" Wu Yizhi said.

"The Japanese army will not be able to attack for a long time, it is inevitable that they will not order a retreat, and I suspect that their ammunition is insufficient, after all, the time to prepare for this operation is very short, and the Hong Kong side is also fighting, and the resources have also been allocated to the Hong Kong side, if Anan Wei sees that the offensive is unfavorable, simply order the withdrawal of troops, we will be busy in vain"! Xue Yue said.

"Are you trying to withdraw the frontal defense forces"? Wu Yizhi exclaimed.

"Yes, I want them to let go of the front, so that the Japanese army can taste the sweetness, so that they can stabilize Anan Weiji, and let them crash directly into the hearth of Changsha like a wild bull." Xue Yue said.

"This is too risky, the main attack force of the Japanese army is two and a half divisions, once released, there will only be two armies on the front, according to this speed of advancement, the Japanese army will soon crush our two armies and go straight to Changsha, if the tenth army is defeated, the hearth is penetrated, when the time comes...

"I know, but we should trust our troops, and give another order, after letting the Japanese army in, strictly order all departments to speed up the journey, and the Japanese army will quickly close the siege when it enters Changsha, as long as there is an army that makes a roundabout, we have a sixty percent chance of winning"!

"No, I must report this problem to my superiors, it's too risky, it's just a gamble, we can't afford to lose"! Wu Yizhi's face changed drastically.

"You are good at making small reports, I invited you to be a staff officer, not a supervisor"! Xue Yue was also a little angry.

Wu Yizhi is Xue Yue's classmate, and the relationship between the two is very good, it can be said that the two have basically not blushed over the years, but now they are a little unhappy.

"Listen to me, the Japanese army is now desperate for victory, so as to lure them to continue marching and gradually get into this hearth, if we keep them out of the way, they are very likely to retreat, and it will be difficult to find such a good fighter at that time!"

"I know all this, do you know that this Battle of Changsha is not only about the fate of our country, but also about the international situation, the Pacific War has begun, our army has also begun to draw troops to prepare to enter Burma, US President Roosevelt and Britain have decided to let the chairman of the committee serve as the supreme commander of the Chinese theater of operations, just when the chairman is about to take up the post of representing the status of a great power, if we smash the battle of Changsha, not to mention you and me, just talk about the military material assistance of the Americans, as well as the lives and morale of these millions of soldiers, Do you and I take it"? Wu Yizhi said.

"Truth because of this, I must be bold, this battle must be fought, and must be won, how can there be a war without taking risks, after withdrawing the forward defense, the second line is the Hunan army, I believe that they will be able to play the prestige of the people of Sanxiang on their own land! Now you have to take a risk, win or die, you decide now"! Xue Yue said.

Wu Yizhi frowned for a moment and said, "Since Chief Xue is determined to do this, what else can I say?" If you want to take risks, you will be together, and if you want to die, you will be together"!

Xue Yue lightly punched Wu Yizhi in the chest, and then said with a smile: "I promise you, this time the Japanese army must encounter the greatest misery on the Chinese battlefield and fight a great victory that inspires the Chinese people"!

Wu Yizhi smiled, picked up the phone directly, shook it, and said, "Give me Sun Du, the commander of the 58th Army!"

A moment later, Sun Du's voice came from the opposite side, and Wu Yizhi spoke: "Chief Xue ordered, after dark, your troops quietly withdraw from their positions and move into the area of Dayun Mountain in the Shogunate Mountain to fight guerrillas"!

"What"? Sun Du exclaimed.

"Didn't I say that clearly enough"? Wu Yizhi spoke again.

"Our army and the Japanese army are fighting inseparably, let alone three days, even if it takes ten days, we can block it, let us collapse without a fight, what kind of order is this, I refuse to carry it out"! Sun Du said angrily.

At this moment, Xue Yue took the phone and said: "This is a military order, if you think about it, you must implement it if you can't figure it out!"

Sun Du's face changed drastically and fell silent, Xue Yue's tone slowed down and he spoke again: "Your troops are fighting very well, we all know it, but what do you want if the Japanese army has been unable to break through and order the withdrawal?" If there is no Japanese army in the heavenly furnace, how can it be called the heavenly furnace warfare, your task is to withdraw into the mountains, detour to the south, once the Japanese army enters Changsha, and quickly want to approach Changsha and encircle and annihilate this group of Japanese troops, do you understand now"?

Sun Du suddenly realized: "Understand, I'll give the order down"!

"When your troops retreat, you should pay attention to camouflage, and it is best to pretend to be defeated, so that the Japanese army will be fooled, you know"? Xue Yue said.

"Understood"!

Putting down the phone, Xue Yue said, "Call Yang Hanyu!"

"Good"! Wu Yizhi smiled bitterly and picked up the phone!

......

Lu Hai and Hai Zhizhi also came to the division headquarters, just as Lu Daoyuan walked out, the two hurriedly saluted: "Good division commander"!

"It's you two boys, say, what's the matter with me"? Lu Daoyuan said with a smile.

"We analyzed, to hold here for three days, the Japanese artillery and air raids are the biggest threat to us, but we can't accurately find out the location of the Japanese artillery here, so we want to form a squad to cross the river to reconnoitre, and correctly find out the position of the Japanese artillery, when the time comes, the division commander, you command the artillery strike, and our threat will be weakened by the most"! Lu Hai said.

"This method is what Wan Baobang used at the beginning, and it is indeed effective, but you are in great danger behind enemy lines, and it is also very risky, but there is no need for it, because we will retreat tonight." Lu Daoyuan said.

"Retreat? Why"? Lu Hai couldn't believe it. If it weren't for the words coming out of Lu Daoyuan's mouth, they would have thought that they had heard it wrong.

"Lure the enemy deeper, both of you have gone to military school, and I don't need to explain the rest!" Lu Daoyuan said with a smile.

"But in this way, the attrition suffered by the Japanese army is limited, so if the soldiers are strong and rush into Changsha, can the Hunan army behind us stop it? If the Hunan army retreats too quickly, the reaction time of the Tenth Army will be too short, the hearth will be penetrated, and our deployment will be completely disrupted." Lu Hai analyzed.

"Your analysis is very reasonable, but the Hunan army was very brave in the first two battles of Changsha, after all, on the land of his own family, there are still many fathers and villagers watching, and this is a military order, let alone you, even I can't disobey, we will start to retreat after dark tonight." Lu Daoyuan said.

Lu Hai thought about it the same, and he didn't say anything at the moment, even if he was worried that he was just a drop in the ocean in this war that mobilized millions of people. Then he said, "Yes"!

After saying goodbye to Lu Daoyuan, Hai Zhizhi said: "This battle is not enjoyable, and it is really not fun to let Lao Tzu retreat just after the fight"!

"Now we can only wait for this group of Japanese troops to enter Changsha and we are besieging them, but what I am most worried about is that even if the Tenth Army blocks the attack of the Japanese army, if we can't reinforce the Tenth Army in time, the Tenth Army will fight two and a half divisions of the Japanese army independently, and it is difficult to say whether it can withstand a round of fierce attacks by the Japanese army, which is too risky"! Lu Hai said.

"You can rest assured of this, the firepower of the Tenth Army is now twice that of ours, it is no exaggeration to say that they are now the firepower of our two armies, and the heavy artillery brigade on Yuelu Mountain is supported, as long as they can hold on for a few days, this group of devils will be unable to escape." Haizhiji said.

"By the way, have you ever heard of the Bobosha submachine gun"? Haizhiji said.

Lu Hai shook his head, and Hai Zhizhi smiled proudly: "The Bobosha submachine gun is made by Lao Maozi, and the Tenth Army is also equipped, I heard that there are more than 70 rounds of ammunition in a magazine, the firepower is powerful, and the rate of fire is also fast, with these, we don't have to fight with the Japanese army with bayonets, they rush up, we suddenly sweep them, and they will all see the emperor."
