Chapter 637: Preparing for a Counterattack

On the evening of August 21, night fell, and the long day finally passed.

However, the Chinese and Japanese officers and soldiers on the battlefields of Huabu Street and Dongjiaxiang in Hankou are still fighting to the death!

From 6 o'clock in the morning to 7 o'clock in the evening, after a whole day of fierce fighting, the 58th Infantry Wing under the 13th Division of the Japanese Army had suffered more than half of the casualties.

A squadron of combat vehicles, a squadron of anti-aircraft artillery, and a squadron of infantry artillery were all destroyed.

Now, the remnants of the 367 Brigade 2 Regiment have been completely entangled with the remnants of the 58th Infantry Wing, and the two sides have no tactics at all, just fighting bayonets and bayonets, endlessly fighting bayonets! When the battle came to this, all strategies and tactics were left behind, and the officers and men of the Chinese and Japanese armies fought almost by instinct!

In the sky above the battlefield, flags are fluttering and army songs are fluttering!

Because he was worried that some front-line officers and soldiers would not be able to hear the singing of the tweeters, Zhong Yi even organized two choruses to go to Huabu Street and Dongjia Lane to lead the singing!

"The flag is fluttering, the horse is whistling! The gun is on the shoulder, the knife is on the waist, and the blood is like a frenzy! ”

"The flag is fluttering, the horse is whistling! Good man, good man, good man to serve the country today! ”

"Rise up, don't be an old sick man! Hurry up and unite, don't be scattered! ”

"Rise up, don't be an old sick man! Hurry up and unite, don't be scattered! ”

……

"The flag is fluttering, the horse is whistling!" Yu Liheng sang loudly, and at the same time held the 38 big cover that he didn't know which little devil he snatched from, and pounced on a devil Wu Chang.

"Yaga Yaru!" The devil captain roared angrily and raised his gun to meet him.

"Bang!" The two bayonets collided heavily in the air, and the ghost commander suddenly stumbled under his feet.

Yu Liheng's feet did not move at all, and before the devil Wu Chang regained his balance, Yu Liheng took a step, followed by a fierce stab.

Hearing a pop, the bayonet stabbed into the chest of the devil commander.

The devil Wu Chang whimpered, and immediately withered on the ground.

Yu Liheng pulled out his gun, put away his knife, and then sang again: "Good man, good man, good man to serve the country today!" ”

"Baga Yalu, don't sing anymore, don't sing anymore!" A devil lieutenant couldn't stand the stimulation of the singing, brandished his saber, and pounced on Yu Liheng.

"Rise up, don't be an old sick man!" Yu Liheng was not moved at all and continued to sing.

In the blink of an eye, the devil lieutenant pounced on Yu Liheng, and with a flash of cold light, he slammed his head down.

Yu Liheng finished singing the last word "husband", and then raised his gun to block it, and then blocked the saber chopped off by the devil lieutenant to one side, and then took advantage of a stab, and the bayonet stabbed into the devil's abdomen!

The devil lieutenant screamed miserably, and immediately threw his saber to cover his abdomen, but a pair of eyes glared at Yu Liheng with self-hatred, and said word by word: "Damn bastard, stop singing!" It's really ugly! ”

Yu Liheng kicked the second lieutenant of the devil over, and followed the chorus not far away to continue to sing: "The flag is fluttering, the horse is whistling, the country is ruined, the disaster is on the brows, save the sinking, all thanks to my compatriots!" ”

"Dai Tianqiu, why don't you revenge? If you don't kill the enemy, you can't get rid of it! ”

……

At the same time, in Nanjing, the headquarters of the Central China Front of the Japanese army.

A radio is placed on the large table of Shunroku Hatata, and what is playing inside is the army song of the Chinese National Revolutionary Army!

"The Huangpu Army is strong, and the revolutionary ambition is loyal!"

"Jin Ge Iron Horse, a hundred battles on the battlefield, and a pioneer inside and outside!"

"Sweep vertically and horizontally, rejuvenate China, and make great contributions to invincibility!"

"The flag is shining, the golden drum is ringing, the dragon and the tiger are majestic, and the loyalty and lean style are promoted!"

"Mobile offensive, brave and composed, surprise attack initiative and resourcefulness!"

"Treat each other with all sincerity, unite and strive for self-improvement, and annihilate the enemy Kou Kai singing!"

The song is not solo, but a chorus of hundreds of people, which looks like a rainbow!

Although Shunroku Hata couldn't understand the lyrics, he was still shocked by this passionate melody, and he couldn't stop feeling his heart swaying!

At that moment, Shunroku Hata asked, "What kind of song is this?" ”

Okamura Ninji replied, "Your Excellency, this is the army song of the Shina Army!" ”

"Army anthem?" Hata Junroku said awe-inspiringly, "The momentum is extraordinary, listening to it makes people's blood excited, not surprisingly, the soldiers on the front line in Wuhan should be deeply inspired after hearing this military song!" ”

"It's pretty much the same!" As soon as Shunroku Hata finished speaking, a voice came in from outside the office.

Shunroku Hahata and Ninji Okamura looked up in a hurry, and saw the chief of staff of the front army, Kawabe, coming in three steps.

Kawabe Shozo's face looked very bad, and he was still holding a folder in his hand, and after coming in, he first bowed to Shunroku Hatata, and then reported: "Your Excellency, General, I just received a telegram from the Second Army, because of the encouragement of the military song, the morale of the Chinese army on the Wuhan battlefield is high, and today it is still holding on!" ”

"Nani?" Hata Junroku said awe-inspiringly, "The Shina Army held out for another day? ”

"Hello!" Riverside is the first to say, "And judging from the current situation, I can't take Wuhan tonight!" ”

"Yaga!" Hata Shunroku cursed in a low voice, and said with a gloomy face, "Didn't the Second Army report that there was not much left of the Chinese Army in Wuhan City?" And it's exhausted and unsustainable! Why did you attack for two days in a row, but you still couldn't take it? What exactly is the Second Army doing? ”

At this time, Okamura Ninji suddenly said: "Your Excellency General, you can't fight, give up!" ”

"Nani, give up?" Shunroku Hata frowned and said, "Okamura-kun, give up at this time?" ”

"Hello!" Okamura Ningji was the first to say, "If we continue to fight, it is difficult to say whether we can take Wuhan, but the main forces of the five war zones and the ninth war zone will definitely counterattack!" ”

"Counterattack?" Shunroku Hata said awe-inspiringly, "It won't be so fast, right?" ”

As soon as the words fell, another staff officer walked in quickly and reported: "Your Excellency, the air force returning from the bombing of Chongqing has reported that the Chinese army in Tongbai County, Suixian County, and Macheng County is assembling!" Seems to be a big move! ”

"Nani?" Hata Junroku said awe-inspiringly, "The Chinese army of Tongbai County, Sui County, and Macheng County is assembling? ”

As he spoke, Shunroku Hahata walked to the large map on the north wall, followed by Okamura Ninji and Kawabe Shozo.

Hebian Zhengsan quickly found Tongbai County, Sui County and Macheng County from the map, and immediately pointed to the map and said: "Your Excellency General, according to the previous information, the Fourth Corps of the Fifth War Zone of the China Army is resting in the area of Tongbai County and Suixian, and the Third Corps is resting and waiting in the area of Macheng County!" ”

Okamura Ninji said in a deep voice: "This is enough to show that the Shina army is preparing to counterattack!" ”

"Yaga!" When Shunroku Hata heard this, his face immediately turned black as the bottom of a pot.
