The battle continues.

After a period of panic, the fishing boat on which Izuo Kazuo, the captain of the Seventh Wing of the Little Devils, was riding, finally docked to the south bank of the Huai River.

As this fishing boat docked, more than a dozen fishing boats docked one after another.

After docking, the little devils on these fishing boats did not dare to stay in the slightest, so they rushed towards the river bank like a fire burning their buttocks.

There was no way, who let the new artillery company on the north bank of the Huai River continue to fire at them, even if they have already landed, they have not stopped.

And now, suddenly, two shells fell on the shore of these little devils, and in an instant the two fishing boats were blown out of a big hole, and the wood debris flew in all directions, and then fell into the Huai River.

The river bubbled down the hole into the fishing boats, and in a short time the two fishing boats were already sinking to the bottom.

However, because of the shallow water on the shore, most of the hull of the ship is still exposed above the river.

The little devils who were on the two fishing boats before, watching all this, were all happy.

Because if they hadn't gone ashore in time, they would have been buried in the Huai River forever with these two fishing boats.

"Boom!"

Another cannonball flew and landed on the south bank of the Huai River, although it did not fall in the crowd of little devils, but it also scared this group of little devils like frightened birds into a cold sweat.

Tonight's encounter will definitely be a nightmare for these little devils, because they have never been so embarrassed since they set foot on Chinese soil.

They have always pressed the enemy to fight, and once upon a time they were beaten like a pack of lost dogs by the enemy like this?

The little devils knew that it would not be safe to go ashore, so they hurried to flee farther along the riverbank.

"Eight Ga Ya Road!"

After escaping to a safe distance, the little devils of the Seventh Wing stopped, and then wiped the cold sweat on their foreheads, while panting heavily, angry and afraid at the same time.

These little devils are afraid, just because they almost died on the Huai River.

And Izuo's fear is different from his subordinates.

Before leaving, he had already made a military order in front of the brigade commander Akiyama Yoshiyoshiyo, and the trip could only succeed, not fail.

Otherwise, dispose of it accordingly.

Before leaving, he was also full of confidence in his heart, because he did not think that the enemy army would set up an ambush here.

And as long as he leads the Imperial warriors of the Seventh Wing to cross the Huai River smoothly, he will have a hundred ways to complete the mission assigned to him by the brigade commander, and even with their Seventh Wing alone, he is absolutely sure that he can capture the enemy's position in the Huai Pass.

But unfortunately, they were eventually captured here, so that they did not even cross the Huai River, and even suffered heavy losses as a result.

At the time of their departure, they had more than 100 fishing boats and more than 2,000 imperial warriors.

But now it is only a dozen fishing boats and more than 500 imperial warriors who have successfully escaped back to the south bank of the Huai River.

This is still the reason why on the way back, I saved some Imperial warriors who fell into the water, otherwise, there would only be fewer Imperial warriors who could survive.

Of course, it doesn't mean that except for these five hundred little devils, the rest of the little devils have been killed; On the contrary, there are actually many little devils who are not dead.

Some little devils are still struggling unwillingly in the Huai River, and some little devils are making the last stubborn resistance on the north bank of the Huai River.

But there will only be one result for these little devils, and that is death.

There may be some escapes, but not too many.

"Go back!"

The captain of the Little Devil Wing, Izuo Kazuo, gave an order, and after glaring at the other side of the Huai River unwillingly after anger, he turned around and walked in the direction of where the brigade was stationed, leaving behind him all the artillery fire here.

Seriously, in fact, Isao really didn't want to go back, because he knew what the consequences would be when he went back, but he had to go back because there was no point in staying here.

At the moment, with only the rifles in their hands, they stay here to no avail of anything other than watching the atrocities of the enemy army.

Their 7th Wing was not without heavy weapons, mountain artillery, mortars, etc., everything.

It's just that all these weapons sank into the Huai River along with the fishing boats, and there were also a few mortars in the dozen or so fishing boats that docked, but they only cared about fleeing for their lives, and even hated their father and mother for giving them two legs, not to mention removing mortars, and even heavy machine guns were not removed.

What's more, some little devils even threw away the 38 big covers in their hands.

There is no way, in that situation, in order to escape, anything can be done.

The so-called steel gun in his hand is the soldier's second life, but his first life is gone, so how can he take care of the second life?

As for going back now?

It's not safe on the banks of the river, let alone on the fishing boats.

These little devils who have been frightened have finally escaped from danger, how can they be in danger alone at this moment?

Not only did they not risk it alone, but they were even afraid to hear orders from His Excellency the Wing Commander to let them go back and carry their heavy weapons.

At this moment, when they heard the wing commander order to let them go back, they all breathed a sigh of relief, and then hurriedly followed him towards the brigade station, not daring to delay in the slightest.

As for the life and death of those comrades who are still fighting the enemy army, they can no longer care so much at the moment, so they can only leave them to fend for themselves.

……

The picture pulls back to when the battle first began.

At the garrison of the 51st Army, everyone was instantly awakened by the earth-shattering sound of gunfire.

Even if the battle site was more than twenty or thirty miles away from their station, it still couldn't alleviate the explosions that sounded devastating.

Of course, this is also the reason why the new artillery company is willing to spend money, almost regardless of the cost, to increase the firepower from the beginning of the battle to the maximum, otherwise, it will not wake them up in the first place.

"What's going on?"

The officers and men of the 51st who were in charge of standing guard and keeping guard did not react at the first time, because listening to this sound, it seemed to be coming from the upper reaches of the Huai River, and it was not clear for a while, but it was certain that it was definitely beyond the scope of their position.

All of a sudden, the 51st Army, as well as the 51st Division, exploded, and everyone rushed out of their tents.

Because they were in wartime, everyone slept at night without removing their armor, and when they came out, they all had their weapons and equipment in their hands, and they could join the battle at any time......
