Su Jin's words expressed the hesitation in the hearts of Xue Yue and Wu Yizhi, the recovery of Jiujiang is naturally a great credit, and their merits are naturally indispensable to them as the prefects of the Ninth War Zone, but Jiujiang is not so easy to take. Okamura Ningji is not a good stubble, the Eleventh Army in his hand is the most elite mobile unit of the Japanese army, plus he has long been eyeing Changsha, once he mobilizes too many troops in order to recover Jiujiang and causes Changsha to lose, that is to pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelons.

In the final analysis, they just want the 202nd Division to take the lead in the front, in case something happens, there is room for remedy, but everyone has selfish intentions, Su Jin is not a fool, this matter is no good for him, if he smashes the board but has to hit him, the 202nd Division is the team he worked hard to pull out, this time he sent the 348th Brigade to fight Jiujiang was originally to brush up on the energy point, naturally he refused to do this kind of stupid thing to take advantage of others' fire.

Regarding this, Xue Yue and Wu Yizhi naturally knew it, and they had nothing to say after hearing Su Jin say this. After all, the meaning of Su Jin's words is already very clear, Jiujiang I can fight it down for you, maybe I can't hold it, that's your problem. No matter how thick-skinned they are, they can't say that after Jiujiang is defeated, you will help me guard it first, and I will send someone to take over after a while.

Seeing that their respective commanders were silent, the staff officers in the battle hall did not dare to speak, and the atmosphere was silent for a while.

After a long time, Wu Yizhi on the side said: "Chief Xue, see if you can do this, since the 74th Army has been dispatched, then don't let him stay in Xiushui." Now the 74th Army can be allowed to rush to Jiujiang immediately and guard Jiujiang with the 348th Brigade, and Jiujiang can be guarded. If you can't hold on, it's not too late to retreat, what do you think? ”

"This ......"

Xue Yue groaned, although Wu Yizhi's suggestion is not very clever, it can be regarded as an old and serious method, even if it can't defeat the third division and the thirteenth division, you can retreat to Nanchang, presumably the loss will not be very large, and the ninth theater and the Japanese eleventh army have not fought for nearly half a year. He also wanted to see how effective the troops were after the training.

Thinking of this, Xue Yue finally nodded, and agreed to Wu Yizhi's proposal......

10:38 a.m. The scorching sun shining on people's faces is particularly dazzling.

In the firing hole of a pillbox, a Type 92 heavy machine gun was desperately pouring out tongues of fire, and the ragged Yusho Tsuchida stood next to the machine gunner holding a command knife, desperately urging the machine gunner to shoot.

"Increase the rate of fire...... Hurry up and drop ...... Left front shot...... Right front right front right front ......"

The hot and dense machine-gun bullets hit the dirt in front of them with a "chirping" sound. From time to time, streaks of green smoke rose from the wet earth.

It's five o'clock in the morning today. The 348th Brigade launched a surprise attack on the remaining positions in Xiaobaoshan, and the Japanese army suffered a big loss under guard, so far, most of the positions have been conquered by the 348th Brigade, leaving only the last of the largest pillboxes still resisting stubbornly, because the attack came too suddenly, Tsuchida Yongxiang was besieged here before he had time to withdraw to Jiujiang, and now this bunker group has been surrounded by the officers and soldiers of the 348th Brigade.

Then. A squadron leader hurriedly ran in and said anxiously: "Your Excellency Dazuo, while the people of China have not launched a final general attack yet. I'll send a team to cover your retreat to the city at once, and I ask you to accede to your humble request!" ”

"It's too late!" Tsuchida Yongxiang Osa looked at the figures that could be seen everywhere outside and laughed miserably: "We have been surrounded by the Shina people, it is impossible to rush out, and now we can only repay the kindness of His Majesty the Emperor with death." Hashimoto-kun, let's prepare for the farewell ceremony of the military flag, I'm afraid it will be too late! ”

"Hai ......"

The squadron leader gritted his teeth and hurriedly ran out.

Ten minutes later, in the largest room in the bunker, more than 30 Japanese soldiers were already in formation. At this time, the whole room was enveloped in an atmosphere of bitter despair. After several days of fighting, many soldiers were already in rags, and at this time they naturally knew that their fate was doomed, and it would not be long before the Chinese would come in. Everyone's expressions were as if they had just died of their own father, because they were going to hold a flag-burning ceremony here.

Tsuchida Yongxiang looked at this team, and an inexplicable anger did not hit one place. The army he led had a reputation as a victorious army in the Russo-Japanese War, but now it was going to be destroyed in his hands, and he was already very uncomfortable in his heart. And these officers and soldiers still can't understand his feelings like this, and say goodbye to the military flag with such a mental outlook, it's too unusual.

He immediately shouted to the star officer on duty, Hashimoto Keno Shaozo: "The order is to rectify the appearance of the army, organize the team, and be strictly tidy, this is the last chance for the 97th Wing to show its strength!" ”

Three minutes later, Hashimoto reported, "Your Excellency, the team is reorganized, is there a flag-burning ceremony?" ”

Yusho Tsuchida pulled out his sword and did not answer. He walked up to the first row of soldiers and stretched his sword towards the crotch of the second soldier in the first row, who was so frightened that he took a step back.

Tsuchida Yusho Daisa looked at the private's shoulder with the back of his knife, "If you move again, I'll chop you!" ”

The private grinned in pain and straightened up.

Yusho Tsuchida flicked the private's genitals to the left with the tip of his knife, and said to the officer on duty: "Everyone should do this, this is a neat way of training, and when bidding farewell to the military flag, everyone should be like a person!" ”

Keno Hashimoto shouted, "All attention, everyone put that thing on the side of their left leg as His Excellency Osaku said!" ”

After a while, Tsuchida Yongxiang looked at it, and finally showed a look of satisfaction on his face, and said, "It's time to start!" ”

Keno Hashimoto shouted: "Welcome the military flag!" ”

Soon, a second lieutenant flag bearer walked in with a flag and was escorted by eight flag guards.

Keno Hashimoto shouted: "Get on the bayonet!" ”

Instantly, the room was glistening with cold light.

Keno Hashimoto shouted again: "Salute to the military flag!" ”

Tsuchida Yusho and two officers drew their swords in salute, and the soldiers raised their spears in salute. Then there was a low sobbing from the ranks, and then the trumpet sounded, and the flag was lit by the flag bearer.

After the flag was reduced to ashes, the second lieutenant bowed three times to the east, then suddenly knelt down in front of the flagpole and plunged his saber into his abdomen.

The team suddenly became chaotic, and Tsuchida Yongxiang Dasadaka shouted: "Now that the military flag has been burned, we should also do our last duty, gentlemen...... Kudanzaka! ”

"Kudansakami!"

The room was filled with the sound of ghosts crying and howling.

"Boom ......"

At this moment, a loud noise came, and a machine gunner who was shooting next to him was hit by a strong shock wave and shot to the side, and the Huaxia army on the opposite side finally broke through the pillbox...... (To be continued.) )
