Han Xing said to him resolutely: "I think about it, I want to advance and retreat with your 173rd Division, and I want to fight devils with you." ”

Zhong Yi was excited, came up and hugged Han Xing's arm and said, "Although we are meeting for the first time, we will be brothers from now on. ”

Han Xing also hugged his arm and said affectionately, "Okay, I am very honored to recognize you as a big brother." ”

Han Xing is a person who has come over, and he has long known that this Zhong Yi will die in a few days, and he has become one of the higher-ranking generals in the national army. I just want to accompany Zhong Yi for a few days, which can be regarded as an honor in my life.

Zhong Yi took Han Xing's hand and walked to the command post of the 173rd Division, and Han Xing also filtered the information about Zhong Yi in his mind.

Zhong Yi is talented and intelligent, he has studied with his father since he was a child, he is diligent and studious, and he has a deep knowledge of poetry and calligraphy. In the summer of 1917, Zhong Yi graduated from Jiyang Primary School and was admitted to Guangxi Provincial No. 3 Normal School with excellent results. In the summer of 1918, he went to Guangzhou, witnessed the stubbornness of state affairs, the arbitrariness of outsiders, and the hardships of the people. Since then, he has embarked on a military career.

In 1924, Li Zongren and Huang Shaohong raised troops against the old Gui warlords and served as captains and company commanders. In the battle against Lu Rongting and others, he fought bravely, took the lead, commanded well, and soon was promoted to major battalion commander with military merits.

In July 1926, the Northern Expedition began, and the Guangxi Army was reorganized into the 7th Army of the National Revolutionary Army to fight in the north. After the Northern Expedition, the Gui Army was reorganized into the Seventh Army of the National Revolutionary Army, and Zhong Yi served as the colonel of the Third Regiment.

In 1937, the Anti-Japanese War broke out, the Guangxi Anti-Japanese Army was expanded and the 31st Army was established, and Zhong Yi was appointed as the commander of the 414th Brigade of the 138th Division of the 31st Army, leading the army to the north to resist Japan.

Zhong Yi was ordered to move north to serve as the garrison of the southern section of Jinpu Road, sticking to the front-line positions of Mingguang and Fengyang. At the beginning of 1938, after the Japanese army occupied Nanjing, it attempted to open up the Jinpu Road and transferred heavy troops to attack the position of the 31st Army. Zhong Yi commanded the anti-Japanese officers and men of the 414th Brigade to stick to the main position, calmly respond to the battle, and repelled the Japanese attacks many times with low morale and patriotic enthusiasm and inferior weapons and equipment.

Zhong Yi was promoted to lieutenant general and division commander of the 173rd Division of the 84th Army for his military exploits. After the Battle of Wuhan, the 173rd Division was ordered to retreat to the Xiangfan area in northern Hubei Province, and was controlled by the Fifth Theater to defend Laohekou, where the Fifth Theater Headquarters was stationed.

In May 1939, Zhong Yi led his troops to participate in the Battle of Suizao, inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese army, and was awarded the fourth-class Baoding Medal by the Nationalist Government. In the summer of that year, in order to ensure the safety of Wuhan, the Japanese army launched a campaign to sweep northern Hubei and sent heavy troops to advance along Suixian and Zaoyang with the support of aircraft and artillery. The 173rd Division was ordered to hold the existing positions on the front line of Tangxian Town and Shangshudian.

In December 1939, the Chinese army launched a winter offensive to attack the Japanese strongholds, and General Zhong Yi commanded the 173rd Division to fight bravely, successively sweeping away the Japanese strongholds in Anlu and Zhongxiang, dealing a heavy blow to the arrogance of the Japanese army.

In May 1940, in order to avenge the fiasco of the first Suizao Campaign, the Japanese army eliminated the main field force of our Fifth Theater in northern Hubei Province, concentrated the heavy troops of five divisions and regiments, and launched a surprise attack on our army with a large number of air forces, artillery, and armored vehicles. Under the command of General Li Zongren, commander of the Fifth Theater of Operations, the Chinese army rose up to resist, and the prelude to the Second Battle of Suizao was opened.

The three divisions of the 84th Army, the 11th Army, which was subordinate to General Huang Qixiang at that time, were ordered to garrison the first-line positions in Suixian and Zaoyang on the Xianghua Line. From May 2, fierce battles began. Under the cover of aircraft, artillery and armored vehicles, the frenzied Japanese launched a group charge against our position.

Our soldiers calmly responded to the battle and annihilated the Japanese army. General Zhong Yi commanded the officers and men of the 173rd Division to fight bloodily, and the enemy's corpses were strewn all over the field, and the blood flowed like a river. Because our firepower was too weak, the soldiers suffered all casualties.

On 5 May, the elite units of the combined arms of the Japanese army broke through the defensive line of the troops on the left side of the 173rd Division in an attempt to outflank our main force in a roundabout way. In order to smash the enemy's conspiracy, the military headquarters instructed the 173rd Division to act as a rearguard, contain the Japanese army, cover the main force to withdraw to the front line of Tangxian Town, and concentrate on Zaoyang.

On the way, Han Xing asked Zhong Yi: "Commander Zhong, how many people are there in the 173rd Division at present?" ”

Zhong Yi thought for a while and said, "There are still 2,000 people, right?" ”

Han Xing looked at the officers and soldiers of the 173rd Division on the road, there were really wounded everywhere, waiting to be buried one by one of the remains of the soldiers. The original 11th Army, said that there were still about 10,000 people, and the 173rd Division as the main force, at most 4,000 people, now went through a fierce battle. Zhong Yi said that there were still 2,000 people, and they must have been ambushed.

The situation was indeed very serious, not only with inferior weapons, but also with a much smaller number than the Japanese army.

Entering the command post, Han Xing hurriedly took the binoculars to watch. Seeing this, my heart is even heavier.

The trenches in front were dug without fault, and they were also a front, a second front, and a third front, connected by a communication trench in the middle, which gave it a great sense of depth. In each trench, a bag of earth was built, which were the headquarters of various levels, heavy machine-gun emplacements, and shelters.

But these fortifications have been almost blown up by enemy shells, and most of them have been destroyed. There are also very few soldiers on the front line, needless to say, they are either sacrificed or seriously injured on the battlefield.

Another point is that this is on the Great Plains, Zhong Yi's position cannot be too loose, and it is relatively concentrated, which is not wrong. The problem is that the enemy's troops can cross these lines and take a roundabout approach to the rear of the Chinese army from the side.

At present, the enemy is still attacking, that is, it is necessary to resolutely eat the 173rd Division, and do not want this tough Chinese army to create any trouble in the future.

In the distance, the Japanese tank forces began to assemble. Han Xing saw through a telescope that there were about 100 tanks, including Type 97 medium tanks, Type 94 bean fighting vehicles, artillery convoys, and some attached infantry.

This is the 13th Wing of the Japanese Tank Regiment.

Han Xing immediately said to Zhang Zuogan, the chief of the operations division who followed behind: "Contact Xu Da's air force and immediately attack the tank wing of the Japanese army." ”

Zhang Zuogan immediately contacted him.

At this time, Xu Da's J-20 fighter plane immediately flew back to Nanyang Airport to load ammunition after completing the task of covering the helicopter formation. This time, of course, they also adjusted it, that is, to install as many Blue Arrow 7 air-to-surface missiles as possible, and less air-to-air Thunderbolt 8 air-to-air missiles.

During the loading, they received another order from Hanhang to attack the tank wing of the 39th Division. So immediately after loading, it flew back and carried out an air attack on the enemy's 13th Wing of the Tank Regiment.

Xu Da's J-20 fighters completed the formation in the air, and then quickly attacked the front line of Suiyangdian.

Forever deep, calm but untouchable and undetectable is the blue of the sky. Drifting clouds and birds used to soar, and the direct sunlight consumed many years on the road.

There is no age, the vicissitudes of life and the reincarnation of the world only land and take root in people's memories. There is no limit to the length or size of the flowers that bloom in the sky.

White like clouds, red like fire, red like orange, yellow and green, like flowers gilded with gold and silver. Their home is in the vastness of the sky, and their eyes are deep in the soft waves of jewels.

Wu Gang and Jade Rabbit used to relax here. No one has ever seen the Jade Emperor, no one has ever seen the Queen Mother, no one has ever seen Chang'e, no one has ever seen Dong Yong and the Seven Fairies, the wind and snow and moon that have been circulated in the sky or in the world have been sung for centuries.

And the story of the sky, no one can tell it clearly. Because of the infinite vastness, it can be assumed that we are the goldfish with beautiful patterns, swimming freely in the gentle waters of the Milky Way.

Because of the infinite vastness, it can be assumed that we are the day after day, running non-stop in the desert or the grassland, just to catch up with the sun, which can never catch up.

Because it is impossible to dream true, so it is possible to get carried away, and our J-20 fighters are striving to be the one who owns the whole sky.

Xu Da once again imagined the beauty of the sky, and when he had to think about it carefully, the LCD showed that the target of the attack was about to arrive, that is, the enemy's tank wing.

Xu Da issued an order: "Attack those Type 97 medium tanks, one bomb at a time." ”

After Xu Da finished issuing the order, he touched the monitor, and a medium-sized tank car had appeared on the monitor, Xu Da used the sight to align it, and then pressed the button, and a Blue Arrow 7 missile was launched.

After the Blue Arrow 7 missile fell freely from the plane, it began to ignite itself forty or fifty meters, and from then on it had power. At a speed of Mach 2.5, the missile flew towards the enemy's tank.

"Boom-" There was a loud bang, and a medium tank on the LCD screen was no longer visible, only a cloud of smoke was rising, and the picture was chaotic. This cloud of smoke is annoying and takes a long time to go away. It did affect a large area, and the enemy's tank positions were filled with smoke, and the enemy's tanks could no longer be seen clearly.

The smoke finally slowly disappeared, and when I looked at the tank that I had just destroyed, it was indeed blown to pieces, and the shards of steel were burning, and I couldn't see it anymore.

Xu Da started the second operation, aiming at a tank again and pressing the button.

In the headquarters of the 173rd Division, Han Xing was watching the effect of the air raid with a telescope, and Zhong Yi was also watching the Japanese tank wing with a telescope to make some strange changes.

Zhong Yi felt that he was too surprised, and while observing the destruction of the enemy's tanks, he asked Han Xing: "Commander Han, what kind of weapon is this used by your Southern Expeditionary Army?" ”

Han Xing had no choice but to say to him: "Our air force uses air-to-surface tactical missiles? ”

"Trick-or-treating? What is trick-or-treating? Zhong Yi couldn't figure it out and asked.

Han Xing had no choice but to explain the principle of missiles to him.

Zhong Yi still didn't understand, so he had to ask continuously: "What is the range of the missile!" What is Red Line Tracking? How thick of armor can it penetrate? ”
