"Report, the reconnaissance battalion called, the troops approached the Hengyang city wall, but failed to enter, the guns and cannons in Hengyang City continued, and the Tenth Army was still holding on." Liu Xiaomei came over and said to Chen Fei.

Chen Fei nodded, he thought to himself, with so many reinforcements, not a single army has entered Hengyang, it seems that Hengyang is going to be in danger.

"Army commander, just now the battle report said that the 79th Army has reached the Xiangjiang River, but it just can't enter Hengyang City." Liu Xiaomei said.

"Really? When was this? Chen Fei said.

"At three o'clock in the morning, we just received the battle report." Liu Xiaomei said.

"Oh, it's already here." Chen Fei said as he planted a small military flag outside Hengyang City on the sand table.

"79th Army? is so brave, has he already been outside Hengyang City? The old steamed bun said in surprise.

"I don't know the specific situation yet, Xiaomei, contact Camp Chief Zheng and ask them to return to the construction as soon as possible." Chen Fei said.

"Yes." Liu Xiaomei replied and went to report immediately.

"It's a bit of a mess of the battle, everyone is reinforcing each other, and they don't cooperate with each other, isn't it a joke? With such a big war, I am afraid that it will be another fiasco at that time. The old steamed bun said.

Chen Fei silently lit a cigarette, and even the old steamed buns saw the hidden dangers, it seems that the level of the big men of the Military Commission is too low, or there is another reason. Chen Fei took a puff of cigarette and said with a wry smile: "It seems that it is not a matter of considering reinforcements, if the devils occupy Hengyang, then the troops will definitely be defeated by the devils, and blocking the devils from moving south is the most important thing at present." ”

"In the end, I still listen to you, look at the telegram from the Military Commission yesterday, or ask for reinforcements, the officers who have been on the battlefield know that this battle cannot be fought like this, everyone understands the principle of promoting strengths and avoiding weaknesses, doesn't the chairman understand?" Old steamed bun said.

Chen Fei could only smile bitterly sullenly, and now even the old steamed buns could make him speechless.

In the evening, Chen Fei and Lao Mantou were eating.

"Report, Report ······" Zheng Lao Fart suddenly ran in and said.

"Oh, Camp Commander Zheng is back, quick, drink some water, sit down." The old steamed bun said immediately.

Zheng Lao Fart picked up the cup and didn't care who it was, and drank it all in one go.

"Commander, Hengyang is still fighting, but it shouldn't be able to hold on." Zheng Lao said.

"Well, I heard that you arrived in Hengyang City." Chen Fei said.

"Well, we arrived, but we didn't go in on the edge of the city wall, we met a group of devils who were besieging a hotel, we stepped forward to relieve the siege, there were only two seriously injured soldiers resisting inside, as soon as we entered, it didn't take long for us to die, and the seriously injured soldiers said that the troops had fought on their own, and the communication was completely cut off." Zheng Lao said.

"Why don't you get in such a good opportunity?" The old steamed bun said anxiously.

"What are you doing in there, this is not enough for the devils to stuff their teeth, tell me how you got past the devils." Chen Fei said.

"We have a large number of devils in front of us, but behind us are puppet armies, and there are many loopholes, but we can only sneak in with a small army while it is dark." Zheng Lao said.

"Oh, I see······" Chen Feidao,

"Report, urgent telegram from the Military Commission." Liu Xiaomei shouted.

"Urgent ······" Chen Fei said.

"Hengyang is in danger, I hope the 33rd Army will do its best." Liu Xiaomei said.

"It's gone." Chen Fei said.

"Nope." Liu Xiaomei said.

"Battalion Commander Zheng, if possible, can you get some ammunition in?" Chen Fei looked sideways at Old Zheng and said.

Zheng Lao Fang thought for a while and said: "It's too difficult, even if we get to Hengyang, it's useless if we can't contact the Tenth Army." The command suddenly fell silent, and Chen Fei's order was related to the lives of thousands of soldiers.

"Xiaomei called back, our army is in urgent need of guns and ammunition, as well as medicines, as soon as the supplies arrive, we will go all out to reinforce them three days later, and we will not hesitate to fight until one soldier is killed, report the principal's kindness, and be loyal to the party and the state." Chen Feitie blushed and gritted his teeth.

Everyone was stunned, as if the air had frozen.

"Yes." Liu Xiaomei replied loudly.

Chen Fei didn't speak, and slowly walked out of the headquarters, and the old steamed bun followed.

"Commander, commander." Old steamed bun said.

Chen Fei looked back at the old steamed bun and said, "Say it." ”

"Commander, do you want to think about it again, our current achievements are not easy to come by, my old steamed bun is not afraid of death, but you, you ······" The old steamed bun didn't know what to say.

Chen Fei shook his head: "After so many years of fighting, saying that I want a horse leather shroud, this is a fucking lie, who doesn't want to hold his wife and pull his son to live a good life, but now there is really no way, not to mention that now our 33rd Army still has a structure, even if it has been disabled and there is no formation, the Military Commission will also ask us to attack with all our strength and open up the channel for reinforcements, this is the overall situation, life and death are fate, notify it, those who can fight with guns are arranged to each company and platoon, and while there are still a few days left, train the recruits who support us well, At least be able to shoot a gun. Chen Fei said softly.

"Hey······ Then I don't have anything to say, okay, I know. The old steamed bun replied.

Chen Fei walked up to a small dirt bag next to the headquarters, sat down and smoked again.

"Sanmao, come here, come here." The old steamed bun whispered to Sanmao not far away.

Sanmao quickly ran over and said, "Is there something wrong with the chief of staff?" ”

The old steamed bun took out a cigarette and gave it to Sanmao, and he also took out a cigarette himself, Sanmao took the cigarette and immediately took out a match and lit it for the old steamed bun: "What's wrong with the chief of staff?" Sanmao was puzzled.

"Sanmao, this time our commander is determined to fight with the devil in front of him." The old steamed bun took a puff of the flue.

"What's the matter, just do it." Sanmao replied.

"Damn, you kid is such a great mallet, there are so many tanks and artillery in front, how can we fight, and I have broken through the devil defense line in front, and when I arrive in Hengyang, I am not surrounded by devils again." The old steamed bun scolded.

"So what's the matter, it's not one of our troops that is reinforcing it." Sanmao Road.

"Damn, okay, you kid will also guard the battalion commander's life, I can tell you, in case anything happens, you must protect the commander, it doesn't matter if we die, if the commander is finished······" Old steamed bun said.

"Stop, stop, chief of staff, don't worry, we can't do anything else, protect the commander, you can rest assured, from now on, I will not leave an inch, our guard battalion brothers can block guns for the commander, if the battle situation is not good, I will definitely pull the commander to break out of the encirclement." Sanmao immediately said.

The old steamed bun nodded and patted his shoulder, they are all comrades-in-arms of life and death for so many years, and it is not good to talk too much.

Chen Fei looked ahead, it was pitch black, the breeze blew him very refreshed, he thought to himself, if it wasn't on the battlefield, this was a good place, lukewarm, I don't know when He Wenbin came over and sat next to Chen Fei gently.

"Commander." He Wenbin said softly.

"Oh, what's wrong?" Chen Fei looked sideways and saw that it was He Wenbin.

"Commander, Wen Juan called, saying that she was asking about the situation on the battlefield, and she was very worried about you." He Wenbin said.

"Oh, why didn't she call me?" Chen Fei was puzzled.

"I guess I'm afraid that you won't tell her the truth, this kind of war situation is still secret in Chongqing, and she doesn't belong to the Military Commission." He Wenbin said.

"Oh, what did you say?" Chen Fei asked.

"How else can I say that the war is unfavorable, and I can only say so much, as for you, I'll tell her, it's okay." He Wenbin said.

"Well, what's going on with the troops?" Chen Fei changed the subject.

"There are a lot of casualties, there is a lack of ammunition, new recruits are being trained, and I heard that there are also reinforcements for Hengyang." He Wenbin said.

Chen Fei glanced at He Wenbin and said: "What do you mean to reinforce against, the Military Commission issued an order for reinforcements, we are blocked here, and it is our task to reinforce Hengyang." ”

"But, but······ In this situation, how can we break through the strong enemy in front. He Wenbin said.

Chen Fei looked into the distance and was silent for a while: "I want to go around and attack from behind the devil's flank, which is the defense area of the puppet army." ”

"Oh······" He Wenbin replied.

The two were silent for a while, and Chen Fei said: "Tell Wen Juan that everything is fine, you go back, be careful yourself." ”

"Yes." He Wenbin replied.

He Wenbin wanted to say something, but when he saw Chen Fei's sad face, he didn't know what to say, so he could only leave silently.

In the early morning of the next day, the Military Commission called, ammunition, and supplies would be delivered to Chennault in the afternoon, and at the same time hoped that Chen Feibu would open the devil's defense line and make another meritorious contribution to the reinforcement of Hengyang. Chen Fei looked at the telegram and smiled bitterly, and asked the old steamed bun to inform the whole army that they would attack in three days.

The materials for the reinforcement of the 33rd Army this time were all equipment of the US army, and Chennault also knew that the 33rd Army was a US armorer, and as soon as the equipment arrived, it was arranged for the 33rd Army to be airdropped off.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the transport plane escorted by fighters arrived, Lao Zhangtou with the quartermaster department, and the engineer regiment began to receive a large number of supplies, Lao Zhangtou's baggage team is now no one, and they are all arranged to each company, and can only ask the engineer regiment to help receive the wooden boxes falling from the sky.

In the evening, the empty cartridge belts of the fighters of the various units were filled with ammunition.

Chen Fei Command.

"Commander, here's a list of supplies from the Chennault Air Corps." Liu Xiaomei said to Chen Fei. And handed a list to Chen Fei.

Chen Fei hurriedly glanced at it and said, "Why is there no medicine?" ”

"Oh, this time it's a soldier first aid kit." Liu Xiaomei said.

"Oh, give it to the old man, just let him confirm it, by the way, thank you Chennault." Chen Fei said.

"Yes, Chennault said, air support can be provided the day after tomorrow, so we can arrange it." Liu Xiaomei said.

"Okay, okay, it's great to have air support, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, Wang Liang, call Zheng Lao Fart." Chen Fei said happily.

No, Old Fart Zheng came in and said, "Commander, what's wrong?" ”

"Well, come, tell me how we can get around the devils, and how long will it take?" Chen Fei said.

"Yes, army commander, come and see, let's go from here to Xiaomuhe to Wantou Village, to Gejiazhuang, and then over a hill to reach the rear of the devil's side, I walked for a day and a half last time, and it will take two days for a large army, after all, there are still so many supplies, equipment and wounded." Zheng Lao Fart pointed to the sand table and said.

Chen Fei looked at the sand table and thought.

"Battalion Commander Zheng, what if we send a division to advance lightly?" Chen Fei said.

"If that's the case, it should be enough for a day and a half." Zheng Lao said.

"Can you hurry up?" Chen Fei said again.

"No, commander, look here, here, here, it's all the devil's defensive troops, in case you run into the devil, then there will be no concealment." Zheng Lao said.

Chen Fei nodded, it seems that Zheng Lao's fart has indeed made a lot of progress, and he thinks about the problem very comprehensively.

"Well, very good, can a division be interspersed in a day and a half without realizing it?" Chen Fei looked at Old Zheng and said.

"Which division?" Old fart Zheng asked.

"You don't have to worry about this." Chen Fei said.

"It can be, what if you arrive in Hengyang, military commander, that's death." Zheng Lao Fart said excitedly.

"How come, as long as you enter Hengyang City, you can greatly increase the defense of the Tenth Army, and when the time comes, you can extend the time of defense in Hengyang and provide confidence for the reinforcements of various troops." Chen Fei said.

"Oh, in this way, the army commander, it is estimated that there is no problem in Hengyang, but it is not easy to enter the city, there are too many devils around Hengyang, and if you try to enter, the loss will be great." Zheng Lao said.

Chen Fei nodded and said: "I also thought of this, the communication in the city was interrupted, it is indeed a problem, but the Military Commission, the principal, still hopes that we can rush in, I think at most one division, can be bypassed, there are many troops, not to mention the slow speed, but also let the devils find out." Chen Fei said.

"Okay, I'll lead the way." Old Zheng said immediately.

"Okay, you go get ready, and set off in the evening." Chen Fei said.

"Yes." Old fart Zheng replied.

Chen Fei watched Zheng Laofart leave, and thought, which division to send?

This time, nine deaths, no one to send, he is not willing to go. Although after three days, the troops will attack forward with heavy losses, but the situation is always different.

"Wang Liang, Wang Liang, go and notify the commanders of all units and above to come to the headquarters for a meeting." Chen Fei shouted.

"Yes." Wang Liang replied.

After a while, everyone came in, Chen Fei took out a pack of cigarettes and distributed them to everyone, and suddenly, the headquarters was filled with smoke.

"The supplies for the troops are all in place, right?" Chen Fei said.

"It's all gone." Lao Zhangtou hurriedly got up and said.

"Well, okay, our principal is not thin on our 33rd Army, we want to grab guns, and ask people to give people. But the task is not yet complete. As soon as Chen Fei said half of it, Liu Xiaomei ran in.

"Commander, the Military Commission is in an emergency, 100,000 urgent!" Liu Xiaomei shouted.

"Read!" Chen Fei immediately said.

"Hengyang is lost, Fang Jue surrenders to the enemy first." Liu Xiaomei said.

"Huh?" Chen Fei and everyone were shocked.

"How so?" Everyone was puzzled.

"Quiet, quiet, Xiaomei, what instructions does the Military Commission have?" Chen Fei said loudly.

"Let's withdraw, the sooner the better, to Guizhou." Liu Xiaomei said immediately.

"Damn, I originally wanted to have an offensive meeting, but now it's okay, it's changed to retreat, the 67th Division covers, the independent brigade division goes first, and the 68th Division of the directly subordinate troops follows up, the action is fast, the chief of staff, immediately arrange the marching route, disperse, scatter, race against time!" Chen Fei shouted.

"Yes." The crowd stood up and replied loudly.
