Chapter 201: Evacuation
The old guns of the artillery battalion reacted quickly, mortars and howitzers all opened fire with all their might, trying to prevent the devils from entering the front-line position, but there were too many devils pouring in, and the second battalion, which had about 500 people, was shot by the devils in an instant, and the commander of the second battalion was shot four times in the body, and he didn't understand how the devils could rush into the trenches when he died.

As soon as the devils captured the position, they immediately began to attack the second-line position. Zhao Dadao's second-line position and the first-line position are connected, less than 50 meters before and after, the devils came prepared, part of them crawled forward from the ground, and some of them attacked from the connection of the two positions, which made Zhao Dadao busy for a while.
Chen Fei kept an eye on the movement outside, and at this time, the sound of gunfire also came from the position of the engineer battalion.
"Withdraw, all into the fortified area." Chen Fei shouted.
"Yes!" Chief of Staff He shouted back.
Without external support, the devils can attack at any time close to the fortified area, which is very dangerous, although the fortified area is strong, but the devils are not stupid, they will think of different countermeasures to attack.
Chen Fei smiled bitterly, originally he thought that he could hold it for four or five days, but now that he thinks about it, he still underestimated the strength of the devil. Tang Bing ran in and said, "Will there be too many casualties if you retreat now?" β
"Do you think the devils will give up such a good opportunity, the devils' forces on the front line are slowly increasing, and we will only slowly weaken." Chen Fei said.
"Damn, what is Zhao Dadao doing,!" Tang Bing scolded.
"Actually, you and I didn't expect that the devil would attack immediately, not late at night, go ahead, and be ready to respond." Chen Fei said.
"Yes!" Tang Bing replied.
The retreat is always more difficult than the charge, and the Tang soldiers ran into the command of the Zhao Dadao regiment, and only two communicators were guarding the radio and telephone.
"Where's your captain?" Tang Bing said.
The two communicators stood up at the same time, and one soldier said: "Brigade Commander Tang, the regiment commander has gone to the position to command." β
"Pack up and move to the fortified area as soon as possible." After Tang Bing finished speaking, he immediately went to the position to find Zhao Dadao.
The gunfire and explosions on the position were already resounding, and the swarming devils rushed forward desperately. Zhao Dadao operated a Czech-made one, kept shooting, and shouted: "Shoot!" Resist! β
"Boom, boom!"
The support of the artillery battalion also came up, and the shells exploded in the formation of the devils, but the artillery support of the devils also exploded in all directions.
"Zhao Dadao, Dadao!" Tang Bing pulled down Zhao Dadao, who was strafing.
"Brigadier Tang, why are you here, bringing support?" Zhao Dadao wiped the flue of gunpowder on his face.
"Support a fart, get out, hurry!" Tang Bing said.
"Ah, this γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Zhao Dadao was stunned, not knowing what to say.
"Hurry up, organize the covering troops, hurry!" Tang Bing said.
"Okay, good γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»," Zhao Dadao replied.
"Damn, three battalions and seven companies, stop on the spot!" Zhao Dadao shouted.
Not far away, the commander of the seventh company shouted: "Yes! β
"Grenade, ready to throw!" Zhao Dadao shouted.
One by one, grenades flew towards the devil, and hundreds of grenades exploded one after another.
"Withdraw!" Zhao Dadao shouted.
The retreat of the engineer battalion was smooth, after all, the position was small, and the devil's troops could not be unfolded, so they retreated after a grenade.
Chen Fei looked at his watch, it was almost 9 o'clock, and the devils began to attack the fortification area.
"Has Zhao Dadao come down in a row for seven times?" Tang Bing touched Zhao Dadaodao.
"Remove 38, damn itγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Zhao Dadao gritted his teeth and said.
Tang Bing handed Zhao Dadao a cigarette and said, "You are too careless, how can you rush in for the devil?" β
Zhao Dadao shook his head, he didn't know how the second battalion commander could be so careless, he said big things before the war, which really made him embarrassed.
The fortified area officially received the enemy, and at this time it was also raining heavily, and the pouring rain made the road in front of the fortified area muddy, and also stopped the attack of the devils.
Chen Fei brought Zhao Dadao over and asked about the situation at that time, and then he didn't say anything, just told Zhao Dadao to be cautious in the future, he didn't want to hit the confidence of a chief officer during the battle.
Chen Fei looked at the heavy rain outside, took out his cigarette, thought about the wind and rain he had experienced in the past few years, and thought about it, he smiled bitterly.
"How's that, what's next?" The old steamed bun came over and said.
Chen Fei looked back at the old steamed bun and smiled: "The devils are still those devils, but I have become arrogant, thinking that I can fight with the devils." β
The old steamed bun thought for a while and said, "You can see clearly that you are also a victory, because it is you who leads the group." β
"You're a fucking old fox too, and you didn't say it sooner?" Chen Fei scolded with a smile.
"Hey~ It's hard to be a good person, I'm always reminding you when to withdraw." The old steamed bun pretended to be pitiful.
"You, you don't need to call you old steamed buns, call you old fox." Chen Fei said.
The old steamed bun shook his hand and said, "Whatever you want, when will you withdraw?" β
Chen Fei looked outside and said, "How can you go in such a heavy rain?" β
The old steamed bun nodded, he thought that Chen Fei couldn't swallow this breath, he had lost more than 700 people a day after operating for so many days, otherwise it would have rained and snowed, and he would have left early.
The two stood silently, each thinking about it.
Chen Fei thought that the battle of Yichang was over, and tomorrow would be regarded as a fucking battle, and he would say that he would play the military prestige of an independent division and draw a beautiful end to the battle.
Early in the morning, as soon as the day dawned, the observing warriors were heard shouting: "The devil has come up!" β
"Onboard! Onboard! The devil shouted, rushing to the fortified area from all directions.
"Division commander, the devil is coming, do you want heavy artillery support?" Chief of Staff He came over and said.
"Don't, in broad daylight, as soon as the heavy artillery is launched, it will be targeted, and when the devil plane comes, it will be over." Chen Fei said.
He Wenbin nodded, Chen Fei looked at He Wenbin and said: "Shoot out all the ammunition in the artillery battalion, mortars can be taken away, howitzers, infantry artillery will be destroyed when the ammunition is exhausted." β
"That's all it can be." Chief of Staff He nodded.
"Go, it is estimated that you will have to withdraw tonight, you coordinate the retreat order of the troops, especially Lao Zhangtou's quartermaster's office, bring everything that can be bringed, and what you can't bring can't be left to the devils, concentrate it, I called Tang Bing to blow up." Chen Fei said.
"Yes!" Chief of Staff He replied and left Chen Fei's office.
The devils outside the fortified area rushed forward shouting as if they had eaten an aphrodisiac, completely ignoring the raindrops of bullets fired from the fortified area.
"! The devil is a ghost, so desperate! Liu Meng shouted as he opened fire.
Tang Bing looked at the thousands of devils outside, and waved at the anti-aircraft machine gun behind him, and the French Hatch Chase large-caliber anti-aircraft machine gun opened fire "Tom Tom Tom~" made a dull sound in the fortification area. The 13.2 mm twin anti-aircraft machine gun is a rare commodity, with high performance and fast rate of fire, but it is too bulky, but now it is installed in the fortification area to shoot, its advantages have been brought into play, and suddenly all kinds of anti-aircraft machine guns have been swept into a large area, this kind of anti-aircraft machine gun specializes in group charge, like the devil's pig assault, just even the aim is saved, and those who are shot are basically dead.
The commander of the devil was also stunned, there was still this kind of weapon in the fortification area, so how to rush, he could only wave his hands and crawl forward, so that the speed slowed down. But the devils pulled up the infantry guns, mortars, and grenadiers one by one and bombarded them violently, and there was smoke and flying sand outside the fortified area, and the soldiers couldn't even find the target to aim.
"Grenades, grenades, don't let the devils come up!" Tang Bing shouted.
After a while, hundreds of grenades flew out of the fortification area, "boom, boom~" and blew up the approaching devils so that they could only retreat.
Chen Fei looked at the battle situation outside and thought to himself, although the fortification area is strong, it is not without flaws, and after a long time, it will definitely be broken by the devils.
"Division commander, the Military Commission has called, telling us to retreat quickly." Shang Li came over and said.
Chen Fei nodded and said: "I know, call back, there is a fierce battle, and it can be delayed for a day to buy time for the deployment of defense on the other side." β
Shang Li was stunned, she didn't understand a little, the devil would definitely not attack again, and what time was there to buy.
Chen Fei looked at Shang Li puzzled and said, "We have to find some excuse for us to stay!" β
"Yes!" Shang Li replied and immediately called back.
Chen Fei held the binoculars and stared at the battlefield, hundreds of grenades made the devil retreat a little, but he immediately made a comeback.
The battle lasted from dawn to dark, and the two sides seemed to have agreed, and both stopped shooting, if it weren't for the corpses in front of the fortified area, the craters, and the smell of gunsmoke, it really wouldn't be possible to see that there was just a lot of artillery fire and a rain of bullets here.
On this day, He Wenjuan from Chongqing sent eight telegrams in a row, with only one word: "Withdraw!" β
She was in a hurry, how many wives in Chongqing sacrificed their superiors, in case one dayγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» He Wenjuan didn't dare to imagine, she was not a selfish person, but her husband was besieged by devils, who could not be in a hurry, not to mention her own brother, she could only send telegrams by telegram to urge Chen Fei to withdraw quickly.
When He Wenjuan was anxious, Xinxin Coffee Shop called, saying that Guan Lu wanted to see her, and He Wenjuan thought that the second wife also had a little conscience, at least she could think of talking to Chen Fei when she was trapped.
He Wenjuan hurried to the coffee shop and was sent into the box by Lan Ping.
"Big sister!" Guan Lu saw He Wenjuan get up and said.
"Oh, you're here, what's the matter?" He Wenjuan came in and said, Lan Ping went out and closed the door.
"Eldest sister, can you let Chen Fei evacuate Yichang quickly, I heard that the Yichang area is occupied by devils, and only his fortified area is still resisting, so if it goes on like this, γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Guan Lu said anxiously.
He Wenjuan looked at Guan Lu, who was anxious, and sighed and said: "Today, I sent eight telegrams to Chen Fei, telling him to withdraw quickly, but γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» hey~ He may have his own ideas. β
"What do you think, eldest sister, Chen Fei listens to you the most, you still have to send it, otherwise if you continue to fight, the devils will definitely be able to capture the fortification area, eldest sister, you can think of a way!" Guan Lu said.
He Wenjuan smiled bitterly and said: "Well, I know, you are also a person who does great things, don't mess up, as long as you are calm, you can face problems." β
"Eldest sister, I'm γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" Guan Lu also smiled bitterly.
The two of them seemed to get closer in an instant, because the two of them cared about Chen Fei, and this kind of self-heating expression tied the hearts of the two together.
In the fortification area, Chen Fei touched his nose, itchy, and thought, who is talking about me, probably the two ladies.
"Report!" Tang Bing came in and said.
"Come in!" Chen Fei said.
"The devils retreated, but the anti-aircraft machine guns ran out of ammunition, and the 75mm howitzer shells were gone." Tang Bing looked at Chen Feidao.
"It's only been a day, and the battle is fierce enough." Chen Fei said with a wry smile.
"If the devils attack at night, then you can use heavy artillery." Tang Bing said.
Chen Fei shook his head and said, "The piles of devil corpses outside have proven that our independent division is not a vegetarian, let's start arranging a retreat at night." β
"Ah, this is leaving?" Tang Bing said.
"Yes, let's go, I don't know the result if I continue to fight, and the retreat may not be smooth." Chen Fei said.
Tang Bing nodded and said, "Then when will you leave?" β
Chen Fei thought for a while and said, "One o'clock, if there are no devils attacking." β
"Yes, I'll let you know right away." Tang Bing said.
"Well, is the explosives planted?" Chen Fei said.
"It's been buried a long time ago, not only explosives, but also thirty 150-mm shells, enough for a little devil to drink a pot." Tang Bing said.
Chen Fei nodded and waved his hand, Tang Bing went out immediately, Chen Fei knew that Yichang couldn't hold it, but when it came to this day, it made him very depressed, after so many years of fighting, the devil was still so fierce, so he had no way at all.
As soon as the news of the retreat arrived, Shang Li came in with two soldiers from the intelligence department, "Division commander, let's sort out the documents." Shang Li said to Chen Fei, who was sitting in an office chair.
Chen Fei nodded, he knew that there were a lot of materials to be destroyed, he looked at the busy three, and also opened the drawer and sorted out his personal belongings.
"Shang Li, do you like to work in an independent division or do you like to do intelligence work in Shanghai?" Chen Fei said while tidying up.
Shang Li was stunned and looked back and said, "Of course, I work in an independent division." β
"Oh, why?" Chen Fei said again.
"There's no need to worry about it every day here." Shang Li said without thinking.
"Divisional commander, won't you send me to do underground work again?" Shang Li said suddenly.
"No, just ask, I thought you were working too hard here." Chen Fei said with a smile.
"Hehe, division commander, you think too much, who is willing to leave a unit like our independent division that can kill devils? No matter how hard and tired you are, it is better than stealing chickens and dogs in enemy-occupied areas. Shang Li smiled.
Chen Fei nodded.
The old steamed bun pushed the door in and said, "You go to the quartermaster department to take a look, this damn old Zhang Tou wants to take everything away, doesn't this affect the movement of the troops?" β
Chen Fei was stunned for a moment and said, "Old Zhang Tou won't be so brainless!" β
"Damn, I'm discussing with Zhao Dadao now, asking Zhao Dadao to bring everything." Old steamed bun said.
Chen Fei thought for a while and said: "Let him be, as long as it doesn't affect the retreat, you can talk about him again, he is not unreasonable, he is all poor and afraid." β
When the old steamed bun heard this, he silently took out his cigarette, lit it and took a puff and said, "This retreat won't change again, right?" β
Chen Fei nodded, he knew that the old steamed bun was afraid that he would change his hexagram, although he also wanted to fight with the devil for a few more days, but the actual situation was that the independent division had to retreat.
