The 88th Division supplemented the brigade command.

Under the dim kerosene lamp, Brigadier Hua Pinzhang was studying the defense strategy of Zhonghua Gate.

Since the Yuhuatai position was lost, Zhonghua Gate has been attacked head-on by devils.

In response to the tall city wall of Zhonghua Gate, the devils used all kinds of artillery to open a few gaps in the city wall.

The devil infantry poured in through the gap and even occupied the shops along the street near the city gate.

However, the supplementary brigade fought back desperately, repeatedly fought with the devils, and you fought for the fortifications of the city walls, and the battle was very fierce for a while.

From six o'clock in the morning to six o'clock in the afternoon, in the end, most of the fortifications of the Zhonghua Gate were still firmly in the hands of the 88th Division Supplementary Brigade.

But the Supplementary Brigade itself also took a heavy toll on the troops, losing half of their strength, including the death of two regimental officers of one infantry regiment.

According to this style of play, the supplementary brigade is afraid that it will not last for a few days, and the defense of Zhonghua Gate City is in danger.

While he was thinking hard, a loud voice came from outside the command department: "Liang Shanhao, the first regiment of the 262nd Brigade of the 88th Division, has come to report for duty on the order of the military seat!"

Zhao Shanhao returned a German-style military salute, and Brigade Commander Hua Pinzhang shouted loudly: "Commander Liang, it's just right!" You're all right, right? ”

Liang Shanhao said: "Report to the brigade commander, everything is normal!" Ask the brigade commander to assign combat missions! ”

His eyes darkened, and Hua Pinzhang shouted in a deep voice: "At present, the devil infantry has launched a frontal attack on the city gates of Nanjing, and the Zhonghua Gate of our 88th Division was captured by the devils seven times in one day, fortunately, our supplementary brigade is desperately defending, and it is still in our hands, and at present, the chief and deputy commanders of one of my infantry regiments have been killed, are you Liang Shanhao willing to replace them?"

Slightly hesitant, Liang Shanhao said: "This ...... The position of the regiment commander should be given to the battalion commander below! I was parachuted into an infantry regiment like this, and these battalion officers must not have ideas! ”

The deputy brigade commander said: "Commander Liang, you are too worried about this, your achievements in the Yuhuatai position have spread throughout our entire 88th Division, the most important thing in leading troops is ability, and seniority is a fart at this critical juncture!"

Brigade Commander Hua Pinzhang said: "What the deputy brigade commander said is right, I am very confident in your ability to lead troops, and the banner of this regiment will be handed over to you to carry, I can rest assured!"

Suddenly, Liang Shanhao responded: "Then I might as well be respectful!"

Brigadier Hua Pinzhang said: "Well, I believe in you!" At present, there are still some devils lurking in the city gate cave, I want to eliminate this group of devils, but the city gate hole is our firepower dead end, what do you suggest to head Liang? ”

After a little hesitation, Liang Shanhao said: "Brigade commander, why don't we attack with fire?"

The deputy brigade commander was surprised and asked, "But our brigade doesn't have gasoline?" How to attack? ”

Brigadier Hua Pinzhang also said: "This method is not bad, but how can it be burned without gasoline!"

Liang Shanhao said with a straight face: "As for the specific fire attack, I have my own methods, and I can complete the combat mission of Brigade Commander Hua!"

Brigadier Hua Pinzhang shouted loudly: "Then please leave it to you."

Liang Shanhao asked, "Where is my regiment now?"

The deputy brigade commander said: "It's on the tower of the city gate cave, and their morale is very low!"

Liang Shanhao said: "Brigade commander, I'll go over now, but I still have a request!"

Brigadier Hua Pinzhang asked, "As long as you don't want weapons, everything else is easy to discuss!"

Liang Shanhao said: "I can solve the weapon myself, can I release my first battalion commander?"

With a smile on his face, Brigadier Hua Pinzhang said, "So it's this!" This old boy is very wild, and he even threatens the military doctor with a gun, and the soldiers you bring are a bit interesting! Like a wolf, wild and ruthless. ”

The deputy brigade commander said: "Well, this is also the reason why the brigade commander asked you to be the regiment commander."

Brigade Commander Hua Pinzhang said in a low voice: "Deputy brigade, you say hello to Regiment Commander Wei of the 36th Division and tell them to release them immediately, the current battle situation in the defense area of our Zhonghua Gate is urgent, and it is the time to employ people, tell them not to delay the big thing!"

Liang Shanhao smiled: "Thank you, brigade commander!"

Pretending to put on a face, Hua Pinzhang shouted, "Thank you for what?"

The deputy brigade commander said: "You are now a soldier of the supplementary brigade, you should change your words."

Immediately comprehended, Liang Shanhao said with interest: "Thank you for the brigade!"

Brigadier Hua Pinzhang said: "Okay! Hurry up and see your infantry regiment. ”

A military salute was given to the two brigade commanders, and Liang Shanhao said: "Yes!" Yamahiro farewell! ”

Zhonghua Gate Tower.

More than three hundred fighters of the 108 regiment of the supplementary brigade were guarding the fortifications of the city.

Although the soldiers of the 108th Regiment have been fighting with the devil for a few rounds today, they are physically and mentally exhausted, and they especially want to sleep at this moment.

But the devil was lurking near the Zhonghua Gate, and the officers and men of the 108th Regiment did not dare to relax their vigilance at all.

Zhonghua Gate, like other city gates, is the last line of defense of Nanjing City, once the city fortifications are lost, the entire Nanjing City is pilled.

At 12 o'clock in the evening, Liang Shanhao led eight soldiers of the original reserve regiment to the city fortifications.

During the extraordinary period, the spies of the devils carried out sabotage operations in the city of Nanjing.

Just a few days ago, a group of "fake mechanics" infiltrated and killed several heavy machine-gun fire points on the city tower, and occupied the city defense together with the devils outside.

Fortunately, at this critical moment, Hua Pinzhang, the commander of the supplementary brigade, personally led the guard battalion to eliminate this group of devil spies and recapture the city defense.

Since then, Brigade Commander Hua Pinzhang has repeatedly issued orders that the sentries of each unit must give the right order when they encounter an unfamiliar unit, otherwise they will shoot them directly.

The Art of War: Military orders are like a mountain.

Seeing a group of soldiers wearing the uniforms of the German Armor Division walking towards the city ladder of Zhonghua Gate, several soldiers of the 108th Regiment couldn't help but raise their guns.

One of the battalion commanders with a beard tore his voice and shouted, "Stop, what part are you?"

took out a handful of virtue from his waist and made 20 rings, and Liang Shanhao's first battalion commander was anxious: "Damn, do you have long eyes?" At this time, the new commander of the 108th regiment personally appointed by Brigadier Commander Hua! ”

also pulled out his waist for 20 rings, and the bearded battalion commander wrung his voice and shouted: "Lao Tzu doesn't recognize any urine regiment commander, Lao Tzu only knows the friendly identification password and the brigade seat warrant."

At this time, another deputy battalion commander asked in standard Cantonese: "An inch of mountains and rivers and an inch of blood!"

Raising the muzzle of the gun, Liang Shanhao's first battalion commander continued to want to fight with the bearded battalion commander.

This kind of sensitive moment can't be messed around.

Once you accidentally brush off the gun, you will be your own people who will die.

It's not cheap, little devil.

Liang Shanhao must not let this kind of low-level mistake happen.

Suddenly pressed down the muzzle of the first battalion commander's gun, Liang Shanhao shouted in a low voice: "Don't! Fuck me down! ”

Liang Shanhao was originally a Cantonese person, and speaking Cantonese is not as simple as drinking water.

After taking a few steps forward, Liang Shanhao also replied in authentic Cantonese: "100,000 young people and 100,000 troops!"

An inch of mountains and rivers, an inch of blood, 100,000 young people and 100,000 troops.

This is indeed the latest password of the brigade headquarters tonight.

Seeing that Liang Shanhao's response was accurate, and that it was in standard Cantonese, the bearded battalion commander smiled and said, "Please show the warrant for the brigade seat."

took out a letter of appointment from his briefcase and handed it to the bearded battalion commander, Liang Shanhao smiled and said, "This time you should believe that I am your regiment commander!"

After a glance, the bearded battalion commander who put away the 20 rings of Dezao hurriedly shouted: "Damn, brothers, it's really our new commander."

A standard German-style military salute was given to Liang Shanhao, and the soldiers of the 108th Regiment under the city ladder shouted in unison: "Commander, good!"

Also returned a military salute to the soldiers of the 108th Regiment, Liang Shanhao raised his voice and shouted: "Brothers, hard work!"

With a look of guilt on his face, the bearded battalion commander shouted: "Tuanzao, I'm sorry!" I also acted on orders, and I was offended just now, please forgive me! ”

With a calm face, Liang Shanhao laughed loudly: "Brother is too worried, now is an extraordinary time, the spies of the little devil must pay attention to beware, besides, it is the duty of soldiers to obey orders, and it is also your duty to screen strange troops." Let's go, take me up to the castle tower and have a look! ”

The bearded battalion commander replied: "Yes!"
