Report! The Japanese gathered a large number of troops on the left and right flanks of our side and dispatched four armored vehicles. ”

"Got it."

At the headquarters of the 524th Regiment, everyone was like a big enemy, and this time the Japanese army was really going to attack.

The artillery fire continued to bombard the left flank of the 524th regiment, and there was still no movement in the center, and the right flank was shelled but not very violently.

Han Xianyuan listened to the case and said: "The devil really wants to bloom left and right and attack our middle lane!"

In the past three days of fighting, Han Xianyuan, who was pretending to be a god, was a little depressed, and this time he really leaked the fox's tail.

Immediately, the regimental headquarters ordered the troops to prepare for battle with all their might, and the reserves were divided into two routes to reinforce the two flanks at any time.

"Is it that simple?"

After the order was issued, Ye Lei looked at the map of his defense area and said a sentence.

Xie Jinyuan asked, "Isn't it?"

Ye Lei said: "It doesn't feel so simple, it's more like a consumption." Wear down our forces with their shells and destroy our fortifications. ”

Because the shelling has not stopped, the devils have already gathered troops and are on standby. As a result, the defenders could only be subjected to artillery fire at the fortifications.

Han Xianyuan said: "You can't take risks. The devils began to assemble and put on an offensive posture. If the position does not have enough troops, we will not be able to hold it with a round of strong attacks by the opponent. ”

Ye Lei faced the regiment commander Han Xianyuan and asked, "I'm going to the second battalion." I can't judge here, I have to know the exact situation. ”

"No way!" Han Xianyuan refused and said: "You are now a division staff officer, and the division commander is already unhappy to come here, and you still want to go to the front line now." If there is a case, the division commander will take me for the blame. ”

Ye Lei said anxiously: "How can there be so many contingencies, isn't there still 9999 out of 10,000?" I am a division staff officer, but I am also the commander of the third company of the second battalion of the 524th regiment! ”

Han Xianyuan said: "The shell doesn't have eyes, don't forget that on the Songhu battlefield, the first general who died was our 88th Division."

Xie Jinyuan patted Ye Lei and soothed: "Don't be impatient."

Thinking that his brother in the third company was suffering from artillery fire, how could Ye Lei be a little restless. He was very sure that this kid Sato must have a bigger conspiracy.

Ye Lei had no choice but to stay, but after an hour, the devil's shelling still didn't stop, and the devil in front of him just put on a show.

In the artillery fire, our forces are constantly being depleted, but the more this is the case, the more we cannot withdraw our troops. The 524th regiment was like being choked by the neck by a devil, unable to move.

Ye Lei was really uneasy and said, "I want to go to the division headquarters and report the situation to the division commander."

Han Xianyuan said: "Don't think I don't know, your kid is going to the second camp."

Ye Lei said: "Didn't the head of the regiment say it? I am the staff officer of the division, and the division headquarters is my post. ”

Xie Jinyuan glanced at Han Xianyuan and said, "Then you can go."

Ye Lei immediately got up and left. Sure enough, Ye Lei ran to the second battalion.

After Ye Lei left, Han Xianyuan said: "You know, he didn't go to the division headquarters."

Xie Jinyuan said: "The Japanese attack is indeed unusual. Besides, what is the use of people not being here. ”

Ye Lei came to the front headquarters of the second battalion and found that the German adviser von Schmelin was also here.

Feng Shimerlin leaked his standard bright smile and asked, "Ye Lei, why are you here too."

Ye Lei didn't have time to reminisce and asked, "What about the battalion commander?"

Schmelin replied: "I went to the front line, the Japanese artillery bombardment was a bit too much."

Even the German advisor saw it, and Ye Lei said, "You continue to stay, guarding the headquarters." I went to the battalion commander. ”

Ye Lei turned to leave, and Feng Shimerlin hurriedly followed.

Coming to the forward position, behind the fortifications, the commander of the second battalion was using a telescope to observe the enemy situation in front.

"Battalion commander."

"Why are you here?"

The second battalion commander put down the binoculars and said, "You should be at the command headquarters." Don't you worry about me, the battalion commander? ”

Ye Lei picked up the binoculars to observe, and then said: "Here are my comrades-in-arms, I don't worry about them." I'm the commander of the third company, and my company is under fire right now. ”

It's almost half an hour, but the devil has always put on this posture of attacking, just not attacking.

"Uncle Sato, give me this set."

After Ye Lei finished observing, he asked the second battalion commander for instructions: "Let my third company withdraw?" In this way, I can only be a platoon commander by noon. ”

The commander of the second battalion said: "Even if you are a platoon commander, you are still a lieutenant colonel division staff officer." I can't give an order to retreat without an order from the regimental headquarters, what if the devils attack? ”

Ye Lei said: "It's been half an hour, and the devils obviously want to contain us in our position, destroy the fortifications, consume the troops, and then launch an attack in the afternoon." ”

The second battalion commander said: "You go and talk to the regiment commander, it's useless to tell me." ”

Evacuating without asking for instructions is an act of desertion, and the commander of the second battalion does not have the courage to do so. However, even if he called the regimental headquarters, Han Xianyuan might not agree, and once the Japanese army was evacuated, he would attack at any time.

"Then I'll go back to the division."

Ye Lei turned around and left the position. I just observed that the devil was indeed going to attack. If the third company withdrew from its position, it was extremely likely to attack, so Han Xianyuan and the second battalion commander refused to withdraw the third company. The Japanese artillery bombardment focused on the three companies, and the fortifications on the right flank were basically destroyed because of the shelling the day before yesterday, and there was no bombing value.

"Boom Boom" "......"

In the third company defense area on the left flank, there was still a constant sound of artillery, and the smoke of gunpowder mixed with dust floated in the air like a thick quilt.

Ye Lei braved the artillery fire and came to a row of positions in the rear.

In a horizontal fortification built with sandbags, Cheng Zifeng hid in the corner, and saw Ye Lei shouting, "Why are you here!?" ”

It's the same question again, Ye Lei has heard this question three times, as if he doesn't belong here at all.

Ye Lei squatted behind the fortifications and shouted, "Order the troops to withdraw from their positions." ”

Cheng Zifeng said loudly: "No, brother, you are a division staff officer, not a herald." ”

"Bullshit!" Ye Lei shouted: "Herald! ”

"Here!"

Ye Lei ordered: "Order the first platoon to evacuate to the rear, the second platoon to evacuate to the battalion main position, and the third platoon to evacuate to Zhongshan Avenue to get out of the devil's artillery fire." ”

"Yes!"

The herald immediately went to convey Ye Lei's order, and he was the commander of the third company.

Cheng Zifeng knew that this was not an order from the regiment headquarters, but Ye Lei made the decision without authorization, so he said: "Brother, you are disobeying." I also know the intentions of the devils, but what can I do, withdraw the devils and attack ironclad. ”

"! I am the commander of the third company, and I am responsible for the consequences! I can't just watch my brother get killed by a devil's shell! ”

Ye Lei made such a big fire at Cheng Zifeng for the first time, and Cheng Zifeng said helplessly: "You cow." You are the god of war, the treasure of the division commander, disobey the order and ask for it. ”

Cheng Zifeng didn't want to evacuate, he knew the seriousness of the consequences. Not afraid of military law, but afraid of losing the left flank position.

Ye Lei knew that he shouldn't have been angry with Cheng Zifeng, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I haven't slept for a few days, and I'm a little angry." ”

Cheng Zifeng said: "It's okay, I don't want to see my soldiers die in vain." ”

After receiving Ye Lei's order, the soldiers of the third company quickly evacuated the defense area with the wounded. Among them, only the pikes were not in position, they were always on standby in the rear.

The observation post in front of the devil quickly discovered the movement of the third company and quickly reported the intelligence to the headquarters. Sato ordered the right flank troops to launch an offensive on the left flank of the 524th regiment.
