More than a dozen devil officers and soldiers collectively killed themselves on the bank of the river, and the remaining devil soldiers evacuated with the body of the brigade commander in disarray.

The brigade commander of the 103rd Brigade of the Devil died unexpectedly, and his subordinates suffered heavy casualties, so it can be said that this brigade was also disabled by the security regiment.

The south bank of the Huai River was full of shell craters, and burning shell fragments could be seen everywhere, and the corpses of the devil soldiers fell to the ground in twos and threes.

Soon, the artillery of the security regiment stopped shelling, and calm returned to both sides of the Huai River.

After about an hour, Yu Changsheng rode a horse and rushed to the station of the security regiment with the soldiers of the guard squad.

The soldiers at the front had just called to inform him that Li Hong had learned the news of Yu Changsheng's coming, and immediately took the officers and men of the security regiment to the outside of the headquarters to greet them.

Among the people who came to the security regiment today, in addition to Yu Changsheng, there were other officers, many of whom were high-ranking generals.

"Hello to Chief Yu, hello to Chief!"

Li Hong raised his hand and saluted the generals.

Yu Changsheng raised his binoculars to take a look at the situation in the forward position and the south bank, and asked with a stern face: "Li Hong, the battle is over, the artillery just now is very fierce, what's going on?" ”

"Report to the commander, just now the devil artillery retaliated against the indiscriminate bombardment of our regiment's artillery position, and the artillery of our regiment and the devil artillery started an artillery battle, and now the little devils have all withdrawn."

Yu Changsheng and the generals nodded.

"Commander Li, I heard that your security regiment has seized a devil wing flag, it's a rare thing, take us to see it, right?"

The officers and generals were very curious about this and couldn't wait to see the devil's wing flag.

"Greetings, please follow me!"

Immediately, Li Hong took the officers into the regimental headquarters.

"Go and take out the devil's wing flag and show it to the chiefs."

Under Li Hong's instructions, the two soldiers took out a rolled up flag, and when the three-foot-long military flag was opened, the officers of the command headquarters were excited.

This flag is indeed the devil's wing flag, and even the devil's unit number flag is clearly marked.

All the generals gathered around the flag of the devil's team, pointing and watching.

"Brother Hong, you are really the lucky general of our group army!"

Zhou Yinghua praised a few words, and then he said to Chang Sheng: "Commander, we dug up the security group, it seems that we have really picked up the treasure, hahaha!" ”

The generals in the command headquarters praised Li Hong and the security regiment.

"After seizing this devil wing flag, our Third Army can impress the various group armies, and those descendants are arrogant in front of us!"

The generals of the Third Army also looked at Li Hongna differently.

This is the case in the national army, where the central military descendants look down on the local miscellaneous troops, and the local troops are not convinced, and always want to compete with each other.

The commander can fight, the combat effectiveness of the troops is strong, and everyone will look up to it, on the contrary, if they lose the battle, they will be ridiculed and poured cold water.

Li Hong led the security regiment to annihilate the devil Mishima Wing and captured the wing flag, and the security regiment earned enough face for the Third Army in the Fifth War Zone, and the generals of the Third Army naturally admired Li Hong.

The strength is in front of you, and the devil's wing flag is also in front of you, so you can't help but be unconvinced!

Li Hong handed over the camera and the flag of the Devil Wing to Yu Changsheng's adjutant, and then he took all the officers and generals to inspect the defense line of the security regiment.

……

Two days later, the news that the security regiment had seized the flag of the Devil's Wing appeared in the military newspaper.

As soon as such astonishing news came out, not only did the Fifth War Zone cause a sensation, but the commander of the war zone ordered that the matter be telegraphed to all major theaters across the country.

Many foreign war correspondents also reported on the capture of the Devil's Wing flag by the Chinese army, and no one at home and abroad gave a thumbs up.

Originally, the prestige of the Third Group Army in the Fifth Theater was not as good as that of the Central Army, but now it has also shined brightly, and the military and people in China know that the Third Group Army has a powerful security regiment unit.

Not only that, but the photos of the devils surrendering and offering their flags are also well known.

As soon as the Central China Dispatch Army of the Japanese Army was formed, it encountered this kind of thing that humiliated the front army, and the commander of the Central China Dispatch Army was even more disgraced, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood and died.

The capture of the flag of the wing was a great shame since the Japanese invasion of China.

The commander of the Japanese Central China Dispatch Army, Shunroku Hatata, was furious at the headquarters and threatened to destroy the Security Regiment and the 51st Army.

Shunroku Hata revoked the number of the Mishima Wing, and sent a message to reprimand and scold the commander of the 113th Division, Nagao Nakajima, and ordered the 113th Division to break through the Huaibei defense line within three days.

In the afternoon, Nakajima assembled three infantry wings, an artillery wing, and other combat groups, with a total strength of about 14,000 men.

Nakajima Nagao was completely enraged by the security regiment this time, and almost all the combat units of the division were invested.

The Japanese army gathered its troops, arranged its artillery positions, and carried out a forced landing along the entire line of more than 10 kilometers of defense line from the Security Regiment to the 51st Army Defense Zone.

In order to break through the north bank of the Huai River, the Japanese army dispatched more than a dozen bombers and more than 100 large and small artillery pieces to carpet bomb the positions of the Chinese defenders.

The enraged little devils went completely crazy, the infantry forcibly crossed the Huai River without their lives, and the devil pilots in the air continued to bomb indiscriminately even though there was an anti-aircraft gun threat on the ground.

"Da Da Da-"

"Boom, boom—"

"Buzz—"

Fierce gunfire, fierce shells, piercing aircraft engines, all kinds of sounds resounded in the Chinese army's defense area.

The Japanese army mainly attacked the positions of the 113th and 114th Divisions of the 51st Army, and the devil artillery only suppressed the security regiment without interruption, and the artillery of both sides engaged in long-range artillery battles.

Since the little devils had the cover of aircraft and artillery, the Japanese army quickly tore several breakthroughs in the defense line of the 51st Army.

The 51st Army had fought fiercely with the 113th Division for many days and lost a lot of troops, and besides, the 51st Army lacked a division, and its combat effectiveness could not compete with the 113th Division at all.

The two divisions of the 51st Army did not have such strong combat effectiveness and firepower as the Security Regiment, so it was difficult for them to resist the fierce artillery fire and attack of the 113th Division of the Devils.

The tragic battle lasted for two hours, and the vanguard of the 113th Division of the Devil Regiment landed on the defensive position of the 51st Army on the north bank at all costs under the fire of guns and artillery.

The vanguard of the devils rushed to the forward position of the 51st Army defense area and paid the price of nearly 1,000 casualties, of course, the casualties of the two divisions of the 51st Army were not small.

"Artillery suppression, machine gun group suppression !!"

The vanguard of the devils gained a foothold on the north bank of the Huai River, and the artillery and machine-gun crews immediately established positions to suppress the troops of the 51st Army.

"The infantry charges forward, and the ducks and chickens give !!"

The devil infantry took their weapons, bent down, and attacked the position of the 51st Army desperately, and soon, the large army behind the devil crossed the Huai River in a steady stream, and a large number of little devils landed on the north bank.
