Spring is originally a season full of life, when everything recovers and flowers bloom.

However, because of the invasion of the little devils, the lives of the people in the land of China were devastated, and countless ordinary people were destroyed and displaced.

In this season that should be full of life, there is no hope for half a day, and all that remains is helplessness and despair.

The spring rain has been pouring down, although it is not much, but it has not stopped, and the soil embryo road has been watered into mud.

Even so, the 9th Division of the Japanese Army has been advancing in the drizzle without the slightest stagnation.

Finally, before dusk, the 9th Division of the Japanese Army successfully arrived at Huangnibao, which was thirty miles away from Songjialing.

The army stopped, and Nakagawa Hiroshi, chief of staff of the 9th Division of the Japanese Army, jumped out of the back compartment of the car with the division commander Yoshika Ryosuke, so he suggested to him: "Your Excellency General, after this long period of rain and rapid travel, all the soldiers of our army are exhausted, and many soldiers are even infected with wind chill because of the rain, and now it is about to get dark, do we take a rest first and set off early tomorrow morning?" ”

Ryosuke Ji frowned slightly, his face was solemn, and he did not immediately recover Nakagawa Hiroshi, but took the umbrella in the hand of the guard next to him and walked forward.

Seeing that the division commander Ji Jia Ryosuke didn't speak, the rest of the little devil officers didn't dare to say much, but just followed him silently.

After circling around the Yellow Mud Castle, Yoshika Ryosuke found that the entire village seemed to have been ransacked by bandits, with no figure in sight and no life at all.

"What is this place?"

Nakagawa didn't reply immediately, but put away his umbrella and walked towards a dirt house on the side.

When the building was empty, except for some useless garbage thrown on the ground, there was only a broken wooden table and a broken wardrobe that could not be taken away.

One door is broken, and from the outside you can see the whole wardrobe clearly.

The division commander, Yoshika Ryosuke, didn't know why Nakagawa Hiroshi didn't answer him, but walked straight into the broken house.

He didn't ask much and walked in.

Seeing this, the rest of the little devil officers also followed.

The earthen house is not large, it can be more than a dozen square meters, and there is a broken bed placed in the corner; At this moment, more than a dozen little devil officers poured in in an instant, filling the entire room at once.

Raindrops continued to drip from the little devil officers and the tips of the umbrellas, making the floor of the house that had not leaked rain wet.

Nakagawa straightened the broken wooden table that had fallen to the ground, then wiped the table with his sleeve, then took out a neatly folded military map from his pocket, opened it and spread it on the table, and finally took out a flashlight from his waist.

He had just taken the flashlight from a little devil orderly.

When Nakagawa Hiroshi spread the map on the table, a group of little devil officers gathered around.

"Your Excellency the Division Commander!"

"Your Excellency the Division Commander!"

After a while, when these little devil officers found out that they were blocking the division commander Yoshika Ryosuke, they made way for him one after another, and their attitudes were extremely respectful.

"Your Excellency General, please look!" Nakagawa turned on the flashlight and shone it on the map, and finally pointed his finger and said: "Here, is the Yellow Clay Castle, and it is also the location of our current place."

A hundred miles north is Su County! ”

"Hmm!"

The division commander, Ryosuke Yoshika, nodded, and then began to study the map.

"Your Excellency, it is getting late at this moment, and there happens to be a five-person village here for us to rest, so I suggest that we rest here today, and after we have enough spirits, we will continue to go north tomorrow; In addition, this place is only 100 miles away from Suxian, so we can resist it in the morning.

If we continue to march, the road will be difficult to navigate, and even if we can reach Suxian by night, our soldiers will be tired, and although we can still take the enemy lightly, we have no need to cause unnecessary losses because of this. ”

Hiroshi Nakagawa proposed again.

"Has the reconnaissance unit from the front to inquire about the news returned?"

Ryosuke Yoshika did not answer the rhetorical question.

"This ......"

"Report!"

At this moment, a high-pitched report suddenly came from outside the door.

Ryosuke Yoshika frowned and looked for prestige, although it was close to dusk, he still vaguely saw the appearance of the person who came, it was none other than the scout who had just rushed back.

"Come in!"

Ryosuke Yoshika shouted.

"Hay!"

The little devil captain replied and walked in, taking off his raincoat as he entered the house.

"How's it going?"

"Your Excellency, Commander of the Reporting Division! Since then, almost all the bridges and tunnels in Suxian County, whether it is railways or highways, have been blown up! ”

"Yaga!"

Ryosuke Yoshika couldn't help but shout, and he didn't have to think that he knew that these bridges and tunnels must have been blown up by the Chinese military.

With a burst of shouts from the division commander Yoshika Ryosuke, the entire room instantly returned to tranquility; Except for the sound of rain outside the house, only the faint breathing of the rest of the little devils could be heard. Ji Jia Liangfu didn't open his mouth, and the rest of the little devil officers naturally didn't dare to rashly open their mouths to touch him.

"Your Excellency, General!"

"Say!"

"Continue the road is destroyed, and ours cannot continue to march overnight......"

"Just do as you say."

Before Nakagawa could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the division commander Yoshika Ryosuke.

The little devil officers were all relieved when they heard this, the drizzle tortured the little devil officers and soldiers under them, why didn't it torture them? As a result, almost all of them did not want to continue their overnight journey.

Otherwise, even if they weren't defeated by the enemy, they might have been defeated by the damn weather.

Moreover, if they continue to march, according to their current state, as long as they encounter an enemy attack, even if they can win, they will definitely pay a lot of price.

"Hay!"

After the chief of staff, Nakagawa Hiroshi responded respectfully, then turned around and walked towards the door of the house.

……

The picture pulls back to the headquarters of the 110th Brigade in Songjialing.

"Commander Yang, I know that you are thinking about our brothers, but we can't let our guard down at this time?

You let the brothers on the battlefield retreat, but why did you even withdraw the brothers who were in charge of standing guard and defending? ”

Li Wanzhen, the commander of the 219th Regiment, looked at Yang Yun with the appearance of an old god, and his face was even more anxious.

If it weren't for Yang Yun's previous achievements here, he would even wonder if Yang Yun was a relationship officer who was greedy for life and death.

"Yes, Brother Yang, you can't be careless at this time."

Hou Wanshan, the commander of the 110th Brigade, also had a little anxiety on his face.

"Huh! Brother, Captain Li, you don't have to worry; I expect that the little devil will not dare to attack tonight, so why should we let our brothers suffer in the rain, it is better to let them sleep well tonight, and strive to meet the attack of the little devil in the best condition tomorrow! ”

Yang Yun smiled faintly and comforted everyone.
