Looking at the little nurse blocking the road in front of them, Morin and Alden were in a hurry, Harry's injuries were very serious and could not be delayed, Alden was in a hurry and was about to carry Harry to break through, but the soldiers who were guarding next to him had already noticed this, only to see two soldiers hurrying over The bolt sounded, and soon the swarthy muzzle was aimed at the two.

"No...... No, don't get me wrong, we're not bad people! ”

Seeing the two unhappy-looking soldiers, Morin quickly shook his head and explained, "We really got the permission of your division commander, and he asked us to come over. ”

At this moment, a voice sounded on the side: "Yang Yang, what's going on here?" ”

As the voice fell, a female doctor in a white coat still had the charm of walking over, she was asking the nurse on the side, and suddenly saw Harry on the stretcher and Morin carrying the stretcher, and suddenly shouted in German: "Merlin. Mackintosh, it's you! ”

Looking at the comer, Morin was also stunned, and said in a lost voice: "Cicely, why are you here?" ”

Seeing the two acquaintances, Yang Yang, the little nurse on the side, looked left and right, and realized that she seemed to be in trouble, she spit out her little tongue, and while the people on both sides hadn't noticed her, she quickly smeared oil on the soles of her feet and slipped away quietly......

As the 36th Brigade suddenly launched an attack on the Supplementary Second Regiment that was responsible for the flank cover task, Su Jin, who was stimulated, also ordered to intensify the attack on the 27th Division, first more than 200 remnants of the 3rd Wing, including Wing Commander Inoue Shindasa, which was entrenched in the north of Yangxin County, were completely annihilated, and then the 348th Brigade was covered by 46 M40 155-mm self-propelled guns and more than 80 M101 105-mm howitzers. Led by more than 100 tanks and armored vehicles of the armored regiment, the two infantry regiments followed closely behind and launched a fierce attack on the 27th Division.

"Boom! ……”

As the whistling stopped, a continuous and violent explosion immediately sounded over the Japanese position, raising a large amount of dust and smoke and heavy shells of cast iron fragments that had taken away life. The concussion caused even Masaharu Honma, who was hiding in the headquarters, to feel as if he was in a boat, and the whole earth was shaking, and the dust raised by the explosions around him fell into this temporary headquarters from time to time.

Looking at the dust that kept falling around him, Honma Masaharu gritted his teeth and scolded: "Yaga Yalu, why hasn't the heavy artillery of the Shina people stopped, where did they get so many shells?" ”

At this time, Honma Masaharu has long lost the graceful appearance of the past, and the neat summer clothes have become crumpled, and his face is also black and gray. A pair of bloodshot eyes stared at the chief of staff in front of him, Ota Gongxiu.

The appearance of Ota Gongxiu Osa, not much better than Honma Masaharu, I saw him say eagerly: "Your Excellency, Division Commander." Now is no longer the time to find out how many shells the Chinese have, now the Chinese have used their chariot units to break through our two lines of defense in a row, and we have almost no effective means of counterattack, and can only rely on the suicide attacks of the warriors to buy time. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid I won't even be able to hold on to tomorrow! ”

"And what do you want me to do?" Masaharu Honma let out a loud shout. I saw him waiting for Ota Gongxiu and shouted: "The third wing has all been shattered, and now the twenty-fourth and twenty-fifth wings have also suffered most casualties, and even the cavalry wing was severely damaged by the chariot troops of the Shina people in yesterday's counterattack, and now the combat troops of our entire division are less than 5,000 people, is it possible that you plan to let me personally lead the troops to carry out suicide attacks?" ”

Looking at Honma Masaharu's angry expression, Ota Gongxiu shook his head helplessly, he knew that his division commander was now on the verge of collapse, and if he was stimulated again, he didn't know what stupid things he would do. While secretly complaining in his heart, he couldn't help but secretly curse the base camp. How could such a fool be sent to the Twenty-seventh Division.

I wanted to ignore this guy, but what sanity was left told him. If he really threw his hands away, I am afraid that the 27th Division will really collapse soon.

At this moment, Honma Masaharu suddenly said, "Ota-kun, what do you say if we retreat to Daiji now?" ”

"What? Fall back? Ota Gongxiu only felt a blackness in front of him, and immediately lost his voice without thinking: "No, absolutely not!" ”

"Hmm...... Why? Honma Masaharu's face immediately darkened and asked in a cold voice, "Now that the offensive of the Shina people is so fierce, if we withdraw to Daji, we can still join up with the local garrison to organize a new defense line, isn't that good?" ”

In a hurry, Ota Gongxiu didn't care about his position, and hurriedly said: "Your Excellency the division commander, if there is only our 27th Division here, there will naturally be no big problem in retreating to Dazhi, but don't forget, the 36th Brigade is still fighting fiercely with the China Army dozens of kilometers away, if we retreat without authorization, then the relieved China people can send troops to carry out a counterattack on the 36th Brigade, wouldn't that put the 36th Brigade in a desperate situation?" ”

To tell the truth, Ota Gongxiu has been a soldier for so many years, and he has seen a lot of generals, but he has never seen a guy as incompetent as Masaharu Honma.

Yes, he really couldn't think of any words to describe the guy in front of him other than that. The 36th Brigade worked hard to save him from Xianning, but this guy did not hesitate to sell the family as soon as he turned around, without thinking about what kind of impact he would have on the battle situation once he retreated.

"Boom ......"

Another 155 grenade fell near the headquarters, and the huge shock wave shook everyone in the headquarters to the ground, and then there was a burst of soldiers screaming outside, and it was vaguely heard that the soldiers were chanting "The chariot is coming".

"Listen...... Listen to ......" Honma Masaharu couldn't hold back any longer, and pulled Ota Kohide's collar and shouted viciously at him: "The chariot of the Shina people has reached our nose, do you still plan to stay here and die?" ”

Ota Gongxiu didn't speak, looking at Masaharu Honma, who was very introverted in front of him, he only felt a wave of powerlessness welling up in his heart, at this time he had already expected the outcome of Mitsuru Ushijima and the 36th Brigade who were relieving the siege for the 27th Division dozens of miles away......

In an unknown village, this is the temporary field hospital of the 27th Division, and since the battle began the day before yesterday, the front line began to transport the wounded here.

During World War II, the Japanese army's medical deployment was very rudimentary, with less than 30 medical personnel in the division headquarters of nearly 20,000 people, which also made it possible to quickly shortage medical personnel in the event of large-scale casualties. So far, the grass has been crowded with nearly 1,000 wounded, and the dense wounded have crowded this small village to the brim, and many of the wounded have no place to stay, so they can only be placed on the open ground.

"Miss Natsumi, please concentrate, we are now rescuing the wounded!" The doctor, who was operating in a large courtyard, looked at the nurse who trembled when he heard the sound of the cannons.

With the arrival of more and more wounded, only seven or eight doctors and more than 20 nurses were already too busy, and it stands to reason that so many wounded should have arranged for vehicles to evacuate the wounded a long time ago, but the 27th Division was only a pack horse division, and there were very few trucks. The limited number of mules and horses were in various baggage units and logistics units, and the war situation was tight, and there was no extra strength to organize the retreat of the wounded, so the pressure on this field hospital, which only had a few dozen people, was also increasing.

Natsumi Yajima, who was reprimanded by the doctor, was startled, and quickly forcibly cheered up and handed over the hemostat in her hand.

At this moment, an officer with a bloody bandage on his forehead walked into the courtyard with a southern-style pistol, looking at the wounded soldiers in the courtyard who were moaning from time to time, and the officer with the gun slowly walked among the wounded, and he suddenly shouted.

"I need someone who can still wield a gun to come with us to the front position three!"

As soon as the officer's voice fell, dozens of wounded struggled to their feet, and some of these soldiers did not speak, but stood up silently, their values had been distorted by their long bushido training, and they regarded death and the emperor's loyalty as glory, and slaughter as a common thing.

The officer gave a military salute to the wounded soldier who stood up.

"You are all warriors of the Empire, thank you, gather now!"

Natsumi Yajima looked at the wounded soldiers who walked out of the courtyard with her beautiful eyes, and he quietly asked the other nurse next to him, "Masako, they are all wounded soldiers, can we win this battle?" ”

The nurse next to her didn't say a word, just quietly walked out of the wounded soldiers' hearts gloomy, by this time, as long as people with a little sergeant common sense understood that the strength of the 27th Division was already extremely scarce, otherwise even the wounded soldiers would have to be re-recruited.

At this moment, a light rain began to fall in the sky, and after a while, the light rain began to become heavier, and several nurses carried the operating table towards the room in a panic......

Although it was raining, the battle still did not mean to stop, Wu Zhuang led the soldiers of the seventh company to run towards a ruined temple, and some sparse or dense gunfire could occasionally be heard in the distance, which was the gunfire of other brother troops.

After walking to the bottom of a hillside, Wu Zhuang motioned for the soldiers to stop, and after summoning the three platoon commanders over, he took out a waterproof map from his bag, took out a compass and looked at it and said: "We are not far from Xiangjiatun, according to the news from the reconnaissance unit, there is the field logistics hospital of the devils, and at the same time, it is also the only way for the devils to retreat, and our task is to completely mess up there!"
