Chapter 43: Glory in Defeat
"Sir!" "Sir!" “……”
The team members kept shouting in front of Ye Lei, they were all worried, after all, the sword hit the heart.
Ye Lei leaned against the wall and replied weakly: "I'm fine." If you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing. ”
Li Hu helped Ye Lei bandage his wounds, and a rare smile leaked from the corner of his mouth. He can make this kind of joke, which means that Ye Lei is really fine.
Ye Lei looked at Li Hu blankly and said, "Smile more, women with cold faces will be scared." If you can't marry a daughter-in-law, you can't give birth to a baby, how boring life is. The devil wants to be killed, and the baby still has to be born~"
This time, Li Hu couldn't laugh, he helped Ye Lei stand up after bandaging his wounds.
At this time, there was a "buzzing" sound from outside, and Ye Lei could hear the sound of the motor of the plane, and there were at least twenty or more of them, so he said: "The enemy is going to have an air attack, get out of here first." ”
Li Hu asked, "Where to go?" ”
Ye Lei said: "Go to the roof." ”
Li Hu helped Ye Lei to get up, and the surrounding team members escorted Ye Lei to the roof on full alert.
Although the injuries were not serious, Ye Lei was no longer able to continue fighting. The others lost their command and were no different from ordinary soldiers, so Ye chose to go back to the roof, and as for Hasegawa Kiyoshi, he could only hand it over to Zhu Chi's troops to clean up.
"Boom Boom" "......"
Japanese air raids have begun. In the open space to the west of the headquarters, 24 enemy planes bombed indiscriminately below, with the aim of deterring further attacks by the 264th Brigade. All the warehouses on the first floor of the headquarters have been occupied by the 264th Brigade and are now preparing for further attacks on the upper floors and basements.
Acting Brigade Commander Zhu Chi was full of confidence at this time, even if the enemy's air raid was useless, but now it was really victory in sight. At this moment, the phone of the headquarters rang, and it was the division commander Sun Yuanliang who called.
"Hey~ I'm Sun Yuanliang!"
"Commander." Hearing Sun Yuanliang's voice, Zhu Chi was extremely excited, and couldn't wait to report the battle situation: "Our vanguard has attacked the enemy's headquarters, and now the enemy has little strength left, this time we must capture Hasegawa Qing alive!" ”
"Order the troops to retreat quickly!"
Sun Yuanliang's order was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and before Zhu Chi could calm down, the other party continued: "I just got the news that more than 1,000 Japanese troops are reinforcing you. You ......"
Zhu Chi couldn't believe it, interrupted Sun Yuanliang's words, and asked loudly: "Where did you get so many reinforcements!?" Division, give me half an hour, just half an hour! ”
"It's Lushun, they just came to reinforcements as soon as they landed, and now they are on their way to reinforcements. By then, more than 1,000 people in your regiment may be wiped out! Listen to my orders and evacuate immediately! ”
Zhu Chi has the resolute temperament of a soldier, and victory is just around the corner, and he doesn't want to give up. However, as soon as the enemy's reinforcements arrived, his regiment was already exhausted after several days of hard fighting. At that moment, the 528th Regiment was really about to be wiped out.
Zhu Chi hung up the phone and was heartbroken, if he could, he was willing to disobey orders, but as the regiment commander, he was responsible for the more than 1,000 soldiers, so he ordered loudly: "Order the troops, all retreat!" Also, before retreating, I blew up all the supplies in those warehouses, and I didn't leave a single one! ”
"Yes!"
The herald immediately conveyed Zhu Chi's order. In fact, the moment the Iron Fist plan failed, the whole plan had already failed.
"Whoosh~Whoosh~Whoosh~"
Three green flares rose into the night sky, illuminating all the dead creatures below, which meant that it was all over.
"What's going on!? Why retreat! ”
On the roof, Li Hu saw the three retreating signal flares very incomprehensibly.
Ye Lei leaned against the wall and said disappointedly: "The enemy's reinforcements are coming, and if you don't withdraw, you can't do it." Li Hu. ”
"Here."
"It's a long time coming, our battle has just begun, let's withdraw first."
"Yes."
With Li Hu leading the team, he helped Ye Lei to retreat the same way.
Ye Lei was very disappointed in his heart, could it be that Hasegawa Qing really shouldn't be killed? He is an important historical figure, and no matter how hard he tries, he can't change this history.
The group came to the north roof, and the two team members went down first. It didn't take long for a safety signal to be sent from below. Li Hu took off the scarf around his neck and put it on the rope and grabbed it hard, then picked up Ye Lei and slipped to the ground.
The main force retreated for a few minutes, and Ye Lei clutched his chest against the wall and kept panting.
"Li Hu."
"Here."
"Give you 2 tasks that you have to give me to complete."
"Sir, you say, I promise to finish!"
Ye Lei ordered: "First, order the commandos to evacuate as soon as possible, shoot out the shells at once, arrange more tricky mines on the retreat road, and don't let the enemy bite it; Second, there is a compound in the south, where you Jiang Ruxue stayed before, you should know. There are six of our brothers behind the main house, and you take these twelve men to get them out. ”
Li Hu worried: "What about you? ”
Ye Lei said: "I'm fine, I'll wait for the commando team in front." If you don't have time, you must call the commandos to evacuate quickly, and a large number of reinforcements from the devils will arrive immediately. ”
"Yes!"
Li Hu, along with all the soldiers around him, saluted Ye Lei together, and then quickly ran in the direction of the commando.
Ye Lei covered his wounds and went north alone, waiting for them on the way the commando team retreated.
The moon was bright and the wind was high, and the public concession was dark, only the fire near the Japanese naval headquarters was in the sky, like a pearl in the dark night.
"Boom!" "Boom!" “……”
There was a sudden loud noise in the distance, and Ye Lei felt that the ground was trembling, so he turned around and looked back into the distance. I saw a sky-high fire burning under the headquarters, and all the military supplies around the playground were blown up by Zhu Chi. Although the attack failed, it inflicted heavy casualties on the Japanese army, and the naval headquarters was almost wiped out, forcing Admiral Hasegawa Kiyoshi to almost commit suicide.
"I did my best."
Ye Lei said to himself, because he really tried his best. He single-handedly saved the assault team, inflicted heavy losses on the naval command, and seriously wounded Mitsuhiko Sato, the first samurai of Japan.
However, the special forces talk about team consciousness and do not worship individual heroism. If you had a real special detachment, it might not turn out like this. At this moment, Ye Lei's desire to form a special combat team became stronger and stronger.
After walking for ten minutes, Ye Lei came to a wide road, and then found a hidden place to sit and rest. At this time, he felt his whole body relax, and thinking back on everything that had happened in the past few days was like a dream.
"Step~Step~Step~""......"
Not long after, the footsteps of a large group of people were faintly heard in the distance, and the commando team withdrew safely. The devil reinforcements were in a hurry to reinforce the headquarters and did not pursue them.
Ye Lei supported his body with a gun and stood up hard, and then walked in the middle of the main road. The huge street was empty, and Ye Lei's majestic figure was like a beautiful war picture under the moonlight, and the theme of the picture was "God of War".
"Chief~" "Chief~" "......"
The commandos were excited when they saw Ye Lei, and everyone rushed up, Ye Lei was the god of war in their hearts. Without him, the commandos would have been wiped out; Without him, there would be no such results. In this siege, although the 88th Division was defeated, at least a large number of Japanese living forces were eliminated, creating conditions for the next round of siege plans of the Left Route Army.
Cheng Zifeng was the first to step forward, saw Ye Lei covered in blood, and said worriedly: "Sir, you are injured." ”
Ye Lei smiled: "It's all safe now, and your mission is over." Now you're the commander, and I'm still a small platoon commander with no soldiers. ”
After speaking, Ye Lei's eyes suddenly darkened and he fell asleep. He hadn't closed his eyes much for three days and two nights, and it was a miracle that he had been able to fight until now. It was nothing else who created this miracle, it was Ye Lei's extraordinary military will.
"Sir!"
Cheng Zifeng helped Ye Lei, ordered someone to carry him to the stretcher, and then said to Ye Lei: "The platoon commander without soldiers, hehe." If you don't get promoted, everyone in the 88th Division won't agree. ”
Cheng Zifeng said everyone's thoughts, and Ye Lei, the "Iron Fist Project", became famous in a fight. The 88th Division has two brigades, the 262nd Brigade and the 264th Brigade, and the commando is composed of the elite of the 262 Brigade. The 264 Brigade attacked the headquarters, and the Ye Lei Raid Command created offensive conditions for the 264 Brigade, and the 264 Brigade will not forget.
In this battle, division commander Sun Yuanliang was very impressed by Ye Lei, so it was inevitable that he would be promoted and rewarded after he went back. However, Ye Lei already has his own plan, he wants to form a powerful special force called "Fire Wolf".
