2:30 p.m. on September 27

On the slope of the road, which is more than 30 kilometers away from Xiaojin Mountain, the smoke of gunpowder in the sky covers this low hillside tightly, and a group of soldiers of the national army wearing khaki uniforms are shooting hard at the hillside with rifles and machine guns in their hands, and at a distance of five or six hundred meters from them, dozens of Japanese combat vehicles flying the ointment flag are constantly firing at them, and one shell after another is constantly exploding on the hillside, and soldiers are constantly taking their lives.

In a low-lying area more than 300 meters away from the hillside, Tan Di, the commander of the 159th Division, was shouting into the phone: "Ye Xianggao, no matter what reason you have, you must hold out until three o'clock in the afternoon, otherwise I will send you to a military court!" Let the sixth, seventh, and eighth regiments succeed you? Absolutely not, the 678th Regiment is the last reserve, and it must not be moved lightly! What the...... Dying? Aren't you dead yet, as long as you don't die, you have to resist Lao Tzu, otherwise once Xiaojinshan is lost, you don't need to be angry with Chief Wu, Lao Tzu will shoot you first! ”

"Smack......

Tan Di slapped the microphone on the landline, and he had not rested for two consecutive days, and his face was full of exhaustion. Since yesterday morning, the Japanese army has launched a continuous and uninterrupted attack on him. In the face of the Japanese army's steel monsters, the soldiers of the 159th Division fought very hard, because there were no anti-tank weapons, the soldiers could only use their lives to pile up, whenever the Japanese tanks launched a charge, the soldiers of the 159th Division could only adopt the tactics of crowds, let a group of soldiers carry cluster grenades and explosives bags to launch a decisive charge towards the Japanese army, the consequence of this is that although the Japanese offensive was temporarily stopped, the casualties of the troops were amazing, often dozens of casualties could blow up and injure a Japanese combat vehicle, two days of fierce fighting, The casualties of the 159th Division were staggering, and the casualties of tens of thousands of troops had reached one-third.

After taking a deep breath, Tan Di asked Bai Yuan, the chief of staff who had just rushed over, "Did Chief Wu call back?" ”

Bai Yuan nodded, "Master." Commander Wu has already called back, and they have sent a force to reinforce us, and it is expected to arrive this afternoon. ”

A smile appeared on Tan Di's tired face, "That's good, as long as the reinforcements come, which army is it." Prepare for the 6th Division? Or the new 15th Division? ”

"Yes...... It's ......" Bai Yuan's voice became smaller.

"What kind of troop is it, you say, when did you become so abrasive?" Seeing Bai Yuan's stunned appearance, Tan Di was anxious.

Looking at Tan Di's anxious appearance, Bai Yuanyi gritted his teeth and said: "The reinforcements are neither the reserve sixth division nor the new fifteenth division, but a security regiment. ”

"What...... Security Corps? ”

Tan Di was stunned when he heard it, but then he was angry: "What are you kidding." It was so difficult for our division to fight, but Commander Wu asked a security regiment to replace us, did he think that our division could not even compare with the security regiment now? ”

"It's not...... Master, you have to calm down. Seeing that Tan Di was showing signs of madness, Bai Yuan hurriedly stopped his actions: "Master, don't be impulsive. Commander Wu meant to wait for the security regiment to take over our position, let our division withdraw to the rear first, and then rest and recuperate, and he would give us some new soldiers. He didn't expect the security team to be at most, he just hoped that they could buy us a day or two, which would be good. ”

Under Bai Yuan's explanation, Tan Di calmed down. After taking a deep breath, he shook his head: "I'm afraid that Chief Wu's trick won't work, it's not that you don't know how difficult the Japanese chariots are, and you don't know what virtues the security regiment is." I'm afraid that they can't even withstand half a day with their earthen guns and cannons, do you think we can rest assured that we can tear it down and recuperate? I'm afraid we'll pull out. In less than a few hours, it will be lost. ”

Bai Yuan smiled bitterly and sighed, "Alas...... What can we do, we can only resign ourselves to fate. ”

While the two were talking, a captain stumbled over and shouted, "Divisional commander...... Division commander, the Japanese attacked again. Captain Ye, they can't stand it there, what should they do? ”

"What?"

Tan Di stood up violently and shouted: "If you can't stand it, you have to stand it." Tell Ye Xianggao that if he loses his position, I will take off his head! ”

After speaking, Tan Di turned his head to Bai Yuan and said, "Lao Bai, you are staring here, I will take the third battalion up to have a look." If Ye Xianggao really can't stand it, I can also help him. ”

"Commander, you can't go, let me go."

"Don't talk nonsense, that's it, you stay and watch the house, I'll take someone up!" Ye Xianggao picked up a helmet from the table, put it on his head, grabbed another Thomson submachine gun, and strode out......

On the Japanese position hundreds of meters away from the position, the captain of the Japanese Fifth Tank Group, Ishii Hirota Nakasa, was facing the captain of the infantry brigade next to him, Nakamura Koichi Nakasa, and said loudly: "Nakamura-kun, your infantry should be responsible for clearing out the Shina soldiers who are trying to get close to our tank, instead of hiding behind the chariot like a mouse and shooting. ”

Koichi Nakamura also retorted: "Ishii-kun, the chariots are made to be responsible for the charge, and if you let the soldiers rush to the front during the war, what's the use of asking these chariots." ”

Koichi Nakamura is an officer with old qualifications, and it is because of his ability to wear the rank of Nakasa as a captain, because after hearing Hirota Ishii's accusation, he naturally felt very uncomfortable and refuted it on the spot.

Seeing that this guy Nakamura Hongichi dared to refute himself, Ishii Hirota became angry on the spot: "Do you know how much our chariot is worth, let me tell you, a chariot is worth 80,000 yen, can you compare with those eight-cent soldiers?" ”

In Japan, it only costs an eight-cent stamp to recruit a soldier, so the navy often uses eight-cent soldiers to ridicule the cheapness of army soldiers, and Ishii Hirota, who prides himself on being a noble iron knight who has always looked down on infantry who walk on two legs, is naturally furious when faced with Nakamura's rebuttal.

"Bagaya deer...... How dare you insult our infantry, do you want to duel with me? "Koichi Nakamura is not a good stubble, and he immediately turned his face after listening to Hirota Ishii's words.

"Accompany me at any time, I'm afraid of you!"

Where would Ishii Hirota be afraid of him, and drew his command knife on the spot. Seeing this, the soldiers on both sides immediately surrounded them, and the chariot troops and the infantry, which had been holding their bellies in the two days of fighting, now saw that their respective commanders were clashing, and where could they still hold on, and they saw that an all-military march was about to be staged.
