The two divisions of Peng Shan of the 18th Army supported very quickly, and they approached Yichang at half past three along the Yangtze River. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Peng Shan is a fierce general, who charged with two guns during the Battle of Songhu and was extremely brave, and was known as "Desperate Sanlang".

This time to reinforce Yichang, he received an order from the old commander Chen Cheng to quickly reinforce Chen Feishi, who came from Sichuan all the time.

When he approached Yichang, he was taken aback when he heard the sound of gunfire and explosions, and he thought to himself, this is like the battle in Songhu again, but he did not retreat, and immediately ordered the troops to prepare for the beach attack, and at the same time sent a direct report to all regiments that at 5 o'clock they must launch an attack on the city of Yichang, including the 199th Division, which had fled into the mountains.

Chen Fei smoked a cigarette, looked at the map, thinking about the possible retreat route of the troops after dawn, and asked the police chief if this road was open, and whether that road could blow up a road, and the police chief answered one by one, Chen Fei was impressed by him.

"Division commander, division commander, call from the communications office." Watermelon ran over and said.

"Oh, how do you say?" Chen Fei said.

"At 5 o'clock, the 18th Army is already nearby, and at 5 o'clock the attack will be launched." Watermelon said happily.

"Really? Ahh・・・・・・h

Chen Fei got up and walked a few steps, didn't speak, and nodded to the watermelon, knowing what he meant.

The arrival of the 18th Army so quickly was greatly unexpected by Chen Fei, but how could one army alone stop the three divisions of the devils, now the devils are not coordinated, because it is dark night, no matter how high the fighting quality of the devils is, it is inevitable that there will be chaos because the devils are interspersed with too many troops, and the small troops have no communication equipment, Chen Fei understood early on.

Chen Fei thought, if the 18th Army came at 5 o'clock, then can we leave after 5 o'clock, or ・・・・・・ this decision is very difficult, the sky is bright at 5 o'clock, it is a good time to retreat, but if they withdraw, the 18th Army can ・・・・・・

Chen Fei smiled bitterly while thinking about it, and scolded secretly: "Damn, there are too few troops, and what are you talking about counter-encirclement, now the devils are blooming in the center." ”

"Sir, sir!" Stationmaster Ge came over and said.

"Stationmaster Ge, what's wrong?" Chen Fei said.

"The striker has a leader, and asked me to take my brother to the dock to meet the 18th Army and show them the way." Stationmaster Ge said.

"Oh, okay, be careful." Chen Fei looked at the middle-aged man, although he looked tired, his eyes were very determined.

"You're a sir, too." After speaking, Stationmaster Ge saluted Chen Fei, waved his hand and left with dozens of military commanders.

"Divisional Commander!" The watermelon came over and said softly, Chen Fei looked at the watermelon, he knew what the watermelon meant, is it possible for us to withdraw at 5 o'clock.

Chen Fei shook his head, he looked at his watch, it was almost four o'clock.

Suddenly, there was a gunshot outside, "Tutubu! "Bang! Bang! "Da Da Da ~"

"The devil is eyeing here, let's organize a counterattack." Chen Fei said.

"Yes!" Watermelon Road.

At this time, "Boom, boom! "A series of explosions sounded, it should be the devil stepping on the thunder buried in the watermelon.

"General Chen, General Chen, the devil is here!" The police chief gasped and said, it should be because he was too fat.

"It's okay, small troops, don't worry." Chen Fei said with a smile.

"Oh, oh." The police chief said with an embarrassed expression.

Chen Fei walked to a window with a gun and looked out, the devil's attack was not small, and it was estimated that the two squadrons still had seven or eight grenadiers to cooperate.

If the more than 100 people in the police station alone will definitely not be able to hold it, now that the reconnaissance battalion has joined, although it can't be said that there is no problem, it is still more than enough for three or four hundred devils.

Chen Fei looked back at the police chief and said, "What is the director's surname?" ”

"Oh, oh, the contemptible surname is Zhang." Director Zhang said.

"Oh, Director Zhang, you have a way of catching bandits and robbers, this battle is my forte, don't panic, the real devil's attack is in front." Chen Fei said.

"That's, that's, the general is staying here, and he will definitely be able to beat the devil's fart, hehehe~" Director Zhang said.

"This horse is a great shot! But Director Zhang, come and sit here~" Chen Fei said to Director Zhang.

The two sat down, Chen Fei looked at Director Zhang and said: "Director Zhang, Yichang is in a catastrophe this time, just now this heavy artillery, bomber, looking at the posture, the devil wants to wipe out Yichang, I think Director Zhang should go to Chongqing." ”

"Ah, general, you said that this devil beat Yichang to pieces, what is he doing here?" Director Zhang said.

"Oh, this is a strategic place, and the devil wants to use this as a base to attack Chongqing." Chen Fei said.

"General, you, I・・・・・・" Director Zhang didn't know how to say it.

"It's good that you can stay, no one will blame you, really." Chen Fei said seriously.

Director Zhang was a little stunned, he knew that what Chen Fei told him must be the truth, in fact, he wanted to leave, but he was a local, after all, his homeland is difficult to give up, he is still the director here, and he is a fart when he arrives in Chongqing, he knows that the 18th Army is coming, he thinks that he will definitely be able to defeat the devil, you must know that the devil has not beaten Yichang once or twice.

Chen Fei looked at Director Zhang who was in a daze, smiled, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Report!" Watermelon ran over and said.

"What's the situation?" Chen Fei said.

"The devil has strengthened his forces, and it is estimated that a wing is being assembled." Watermelon Road.

Chen Fei was stunned for a moment and immediately said: "The devils have reacted and started to besiege at a fixed point, but as long as we hold on, as soon as the 18th Army arrives, we will be able to disperse the devils." ”

"Yes!" Watermelon Road, and at the same time shouted to the blocking positions at the entrances of each window, "The devil is going to attack on a large scale, don't panic, the machine gunner prepares!" ”

Chen Fei also walked to the third floor with a gun.

The devils not only started a large-scale attack on the police station, but the Tang soldiers of Ping'an Bridge also began to engage the enemy on a large scale, shooting across the river with two shots.

"Tong Kai, Tong Kai, keep the bridge of peace for me, don't lose it." Tang Bing shouted at Tong Kai, Tong Kai knew that this was the lifeline of the retreat of the troops in Yichang, so he put two companies and two heavy machine guns in the bridgehead of Ping'an Bridge, and sent another company after listening to Tang Bing's shouting.

Tang Bing saw that the number of troops was too small, and this place was too important, and immediately contacted the fortification area to ask Zhao Dadao to transfer a battalion over, the old steamed bun heard Tang Bing's urgency, thought about it to prevent Zhao Dadao from supporting and changed to the teaching team reinforcements, he thought that a unit must be in battle to become an elite.

Guo Liang was happy to receive the order, and rushed to the Ping'an Bridge. And the Tang soldiers of Ping'an Bridge were almost unable to withstand it, a battalion was placed in the bridgehead, and most of the casualties were killed and wounded by the Devil's infantry shelling, and the support could not go up, and the bridge was blocked by the Devil's Type 92 heavy machine gun. While the devil was shelling, he began to force his way across the river.

"Grenades, grenades!" Tong Kai shouted, "Boom, boom~" Not only did the grenade explode, but also the mortar explosion of the artillery battalion.

If it weren't for the support of the old gun battalion, it is estimated that the devil would have crossed the river long ago.

When Guo Liang and his troops arrived, the battle was already white-hot.

"Guo Liang, support the bridgehead, it can't be lost there." Tang Bing saw Guo Liang not far away.

"Yes!" Guo Liang replied and immediately prepared to cross the bridge.

"Old gun, old gun, cover Guo Liang across the bridge." Tang Bing turned around and shouted again. As soon as the old gun heard that the combat training team could not rush over, the first brigade might stay on the opposite bank, and immediately ordered: "Howitzer preparation, howitzer preparation." Shouting as he ran to the howitzer position in the earthen ditch behind.

75mm howitzers are produced in the United States, and these are Chen Fei from the devil's hands, the devil is estimated to be also from the national army, Huang is very familiar with this gun, hand in hand to teach the old gun operation methods, the old gun formed a howitzer company, especially suitable for maneuvering in complex terrain conditions.

"Boom boom boom~" grenades flew to the opposite bank one by one, and after a while, the battlefield changes were controlled.

Even the Tang soldiers themselves were stunned, the 75-mm howitzer was so easy to use, and the devil's heavy machine gun positions, mortar positions, and infantry artillery positions were all within the range of 75-mm howitzer shelling. Tang Bing thought that if it weren't for the lack of shells, this battle could be fought so passively.

"Rush! Move fast! Guo Liang saw that the devil's block was small, and immediately shouted.

The training team rushed to the bridgehead in a hail of bullets to support the soldiers who were almost unable to hold it there.

General Peng Shan, who was on the river beach, looked at his watch, waved his hand violently, and the troops rushed to Yichang City in battalion units like long dragons.

At 5:20, the sky was bright, the 18th Army officially began to receive the enemy, fought bravely, fought tenaciously, all units under the leadership of the military commander's agents, scurried around, and beat the devil back and forth, General Peng Shan stood on a high place, holding a telescope, looking at the Yichang City in front of him, and felt a feeling in his heart, he wanted to change himself to definitely not be able to defend a day.

"Order all troops not to stop the attack until the Yichang city wall, and send a report to Chief Chen that our troops are fighting fiercely with the enemy when they enter Yichang." Peng Shandao.

"Yes!" The correspondent next to him replied.

And Chen Fei at the police station received a report from Watermelon that the Zhao Sixth Regiment withdrew first, saying that the two battalions of the 18th Army took over their position, because the position of the Zhao Sixth Regiment was the first to converge with the 18th Army by the river, Chen Fei looked at his watch, it was more than 6 o'clock, he thought about it and said: "Watermelon sent someone to inform the engineer battalion to retreat immediately to occupy Shiyan Temple, and the troops retreated faster than expected!" ”

"Yes!" Watermelon replied and went to arrange it immediately.

"General Chen, can we go with you?" Director Zhang said.

Chen Fei was stunned for a moment and said: "Director Zhang, if we don't withdraw to Chongqing, I'll go to the fortification area, no one knows what the next battle situation will be." ”

Director Zhang scratched his head and said, "Just follow the independent division, I asked the brothers what they meant, follow the general・・・・・・"

"Oh, okay, yes, but I'm going to review everyone, and you don't have to go to the battlefield, so fat, go to the intelligence department and talk to the old steamed bun, he's your chief." Chen Fei said.

"Yes, yes, listen to the general, damn it, I will definitely come back after fighting the little devil." Director Zhang said.

"Division commander, the devil has withdrawn." The watermelon came up again.

Chen Fei nodded, he knew it as soon as he heard the gunshot.

"Watermelon, send a few soldiers to the front to guard and welcome the brothers who have withdrawn." Chen Fei said.

"Yes!" Watermelon said again, and immediately went to arrange it.

In fact, Chen Fei was very anxious, and when the devil reacted, it might be another heavy artillery, but the 18th Army did not connect with the troops, so it withdrew, which is unreasonable, after all, people are supporting your department, and it is not good to blame Shangfeng.

Chen Fei kept staring ahead with a telescope, he looked at his watch from time to time, the gunshots and explosions in the distance were not very intense, Chen Fei said in his heart, the gunshots must not stop, if the gunshots and explosions stopped, it means that the devils have withdrawn from Yichang, heavy artillery, and aerial bombs will come soon, and it will be difficult to retreat at that time.

The first to come down was the engineer battalion, they passed quickly without stopping at all, and when Battalion Commander Guo saw Chen Fei by the window on the third floor, he immediately saluted and left quickly.

When Zhao Liu withdrew, more than half of the troops were lost, but the army was neat, the flag was holding the flag forward, and the battalions and companies were arranged in turn, except for the brothers who died and were buried on the spot, and the wounded one was not left behind.

"Damn, what is Zhao Liu doing, the watermelon told him to pass quickly." Chen Fei scolded.

"Yes!" Watermelon replied and immediately went to inform Zhao Liu.

Watermelon found Zhao Liu in the queue and said, "Commander Zhao, the division commander told you to pass quickly." ”

"Oh, where's the teacher?" Zhao Liudao.

"At the front police station." Watermelon Road.

"Okay, the troops pass quickly, move quickly." Zhao Liuda shouted.

"Let's go, go see the teacher." Zhao Liu said to the watermelon again.

The two ran into the police station, went up to the third floor, and saw Chen Fei.

Zhao Liu saluted Chen Fei and said, "Master, why are you here?" ”

"What the are you doing, parade, I don't know that the three divisions of the devils are besieging us, how are you the commander of this regiment,, you are joking with the lives of your brothers." Chen Fei scolded angrily.

Zhao Liu was stunned and scratched his scalp and didn't know how to answer, so he could only stand and be trained, Chen Fei took out a cigarette, and Zhao Liu hurriedly stepped forward to light it for Chen Fei.

Chen Fei glanced at Zhao Liu, thought about it and said softly: "Hurry back to the fortification area and tell the old steamed bun that the devil is fierce, step up your vigilance, and I will withdraw soon, by the way, arrange heavy artillery to cross the river, there is no position on the other side, according to our preliminary preparations." ”

"Division commander, let's go, I'll guard the police station." Zhao Liudao.

"Get out, go quickly, it is estimated that there is still some time, but the 18th Army, which the devil will counterattack soon, will definitely not be able to stop it, and the fortification area will be the last stronghold of Yichang." Chen Fei said.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Zhao Liudao, he saluted Chen Fei as he spoke, turned around and went downstairs.

As soon as Zhao Liu left, Watermelon hurriedly ran up and said, "Division commander, General Peng is here." ”

Chen Fei was stunned for a moment and immediately went downstairs to greet him.

"General Peng!" As soon as Chen Fei saw Lieutenant General Peng Shan, he immediately stepped forward and saluted.

General Peng replied: "Senior Commander Chen, it's hard work. Chen Fei smiled bitterly and said, "Thanks to the reinforcements of the 18th Army, otherwise I don't know how to die." ”

Peng Shan was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, this Chen Fei is also straightforward. Chen Fei asked General Peng Shan to sit down, and said: "Commander Peng, our troops have begun to retreat, and we will establish a defense line in the Shanxi fortification area, if Commander Peng can pass through the defense area in case that ・・・・・・ is in case." “

Peng Shan smiled and said: "Thank you, Master Chen, I am also a mantis arm as a car, if there is no reinforcement, it will be a day at most, but I will fight on the periphery of Yichang." ”

Chen Fei nodded, thinking, this can't be helped, who told us that we can't beat the devil. At this time, a messenger of the 18th Army ran in and said, "Sir, the devils have retreated on all fronts. ”

Chen Fei and Peng Shan were stunned at the same time, this is a bit impossible.

"The counter-encirclement of the 5th theater and the Jiangfang Army has come up?" Peng Shan looked at Chen Feidao.

"The devil didn't plan to want Yichang, otherwise he would blow Yichang like this?" Chen Fei also looked at Peng Shandao.

Peng Shan thought for a while and said, "Order the whole army to pursue." ”

Chen Fei wanted to stop it, but he couldn't find a good reason for it for a while, and he couldn't talk nonsense.

"Division Commander Chen, I'm going to move forward with the troops, so don't leave it at that." Commander Peng stood up and said.

"Okay, General Peng, take care." Chen Fei stood up and saluted him.

Peng Shan returned the gift and left in a hurry.

Chen Fei looked at Peng Shan's back and thought about it: "Watermelon, notify all the troops to return to defense, move quickly!" ”
