For the whole day, Chen Fei was at the headquarters.

It is estimated that they also know that with the 33rd Army, it is difficult to break through the heavy resistance of the devils in front, and they are busy deploying troops.

For a whole day, the small military flags on both sides on Chen Fei's sand table did not change at all, which could only show that it was difficult to reinforce Hengyang and support the troops with many difficulties.

As the chief of staff, the old steamed bun has been accompanying Chen Fei. The old steamed bun pointed to the position of the 74th Army on the sand table and said, "After all, they are an attacking army, an ace army, and now even they are blocked, which shows that Hengyang is in danger." ”

"Army commander, chief of staff, judging from the front-line battle report, a division of the 74th Army has been disabled, and it is estimated that it will withdraw from the ranks of support troops in the near future." A staff officer said.

Chen Fei lit a cigarette and thought for a while: "Even the 74th Army has withdrawn, and it is conceivable to support Hengyang, and I don't know what Chongqing thinks, it seems that we still can't beat the devils." ”

"If that's the case, let's think about a way out, just in case, when the time comes, Hengyang will be lost, and we won't be in a mess." Old steamed bun said.

Chen Fei took a puff of smoke and said: "Don't worry about the way out, Chongqing will definitely leave it for me, but what does the principal think about this situation, whether to continue the assault or ······ Hey, we are in the middle of the war, we don't know what to do, how can this big man of the Military Commission provide a better plan, forget it, order the troops to continue to defend and wait for orders. ”

"Yes, I'll give the order right away." Old steamed bun said.

Chen Fei nodded, Chen Fei walked out of the headquarters, it was late at night, the snoring of the soldiers was heard from time to time on the position, Chen Fei looked up at the starry sky, there were not many stars in the sky, three or three, and there was no moon in twos and threes.

"Commander, what's there to see on this day, every place looks the same." Sanmao Road.

"You kid has no heart and no lungs, of course it's the same, I can't tell you clearly, by the way, why hasn't Zheng Lao Fart come to report when he took the reconnaissance battalion to reconnoitre?" Chen Fei said.

"Oh, he said he was familiar with this place, and he wanted to see if there was any possibility of bypassing these devils in front of him." Wang Liang said immediately.

"Well, it's been almost a day, and he'll come back and ask him to report right away." Chen Fei said.

"Yes." Wang Liang replied.

At this time, Zheng Laofang was leading the troops through the devil's defense line, he spared a big bend, avoided the frontal enemy, and sneaked in from the side and rear, but he didn't expect to let him cross the devil's defense.

"Battalion commander, we don't have much to do with Hengyang, and it is estimated that we will be able to see Hengyang City in four or five hours." A company long said.

"Lao Tzu has ears, he can hear the sound of the devil's cannon, damn, listen to the sound of this cannon, and you will know that Hengyang is estimated to have become a ruin long ago." Zheng Lao Fart is a pity to be authentic.

"Battalion commander, what should we do next?" Erlian also stepped forward and asked.

Zheng Lao Fang thought for a while and said: "Let's go, go to Hengyang, and send a report to the army commander, we have passed the devil's defense line and are reconnoitring forward." ”

"This ······ This ······ Will the military commander blame it, let's just touch the situation of the devils here, and the military commander didn't ask us to go to Hengyang. The second company commander said immediately.

Zheng Lao glanced at the second company commander and said: "Let's come all the way, the devil can be said to be heavily defended, our small army can take advantage of loopholes, and the big army can definitely find out, so the devil here basically knows the military seat, the devil around Hengyang, the military seat does not know, it is best for us to enter Hengyang and contact the tenth army, so that the military seat can know the situation in Hengyang City." ”

"Oh, then, okay, I'll have the correspondent send it right away." The commander of the second company immediately said.

Zheng Lao Fang nodded and said, "The troops will rest for 15 minutes, and the company commander will be on alert." ”

"Yes." The commander of a company replied.

Chen Fei was about to go to the field hospital on the way when a communications soldier ran over and said: "Commander, the reconnaissance battalion is calling, they have passed through the devil's defense line from the rear of the devil's side, most of the defenders there are puppet troops, the number is unknown, and the reconnaissance battalion has already reconnoitred and advanced in the direction of Hengyang." Chen Fei was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, Zheng Lao Fart was able to pass through the devil's defense line, but immediately thought that it was estimated that the small army was also successfully interspersed, he thought for a while and said: "Tell Battalion Commander Zheng that when you enter the devil's encirclement, you must be cautious, if you are not careful, the whole camp will be destroyed." Reconnaisance is of course important, but the security of the troops must be taken even more seriously. ”

"Yes." The communications soldier replied and immediately ran away.

"Zheng Lao Fart is really capable, he actually ran into the encirclement of devils, damn, this one back and forth is enough for him to blow for several days." Sanmao Road.

Chen Fei immediately glared at Sanmao, and Sanmao retreated again and again in fright.

"No matter how you don't hold back, see if I don't pull out your tongue, you have followed me for many years to fight in the north and south, and you are like Zheng Laofart, now let him lead a regiment, it's absolutely no problem, you, just revolve around me." Chen Fei scolded.

"Hehe, that's all we have for this fate, we can only revolve around the commander, hehe······" Sanmao hippie smiled authentically.

"Okay, don't retreat, come here," Chen Fei said.

Sanmao stepped forward immediately, and when everyone saw that the commander had something to say to Sanmao, they all took a step back.

"Zhao Liu, this time it is a broken muscle, the reconstruction of the independent brigade is a top priority, I have already reported to the Military Commission to take two more regiment commander positions, you go to the independent brigade as a regiment commander." Chen Fei said.

"Huh? This ······ That······ This ······" Sanmao scratched his scalp and said.

"What, don't want to go?" Chen Fei said.

"Commander, I don't want to go." Sanmao said softly.

"Looking at your appearance, you don't want to stay by my side for the rest of your life as a major battalion commander." Chen Fei said.

"Listen······ I heard that it will not be promoted to the guard regiment in the future? "Sanmao is a small authentic.

"! I'm annoyed when I see you, fuck off! "Chen Fei really hates iron and steel.

Chen Fei thought to himself, it seems that he can only let Zhao Liu choose the head of the regiment by himself, at this time there was a wail from the front, Chen Fei looked up and saw that the field hospital had arrived, the field hospital of the 33rd Army should be regarded as the best among all the troops of the national army, not to mention the doctors, and there were many nurses, at that time, a large number of progressive students were recruited in Yuanding County, besides, the 33rd Army came out of the Savage Mountain and brought a large number of medicines, but the continuous fighting made the field hospital feel pressure, and now the lack of medicines is not to mention, even to make the minimum gauze, bandages are almost used up.

"Commander, Commander······" The doctor and the nurse saw Chen Fei coming over and stood upright, Chen Fei nodded, there were too many wounded, and several large tents in the field hospital were already overcrowded, and there were blood stains everywhere, which was unbearable.

Chen Fei kept greeting the soldiers, and at the same time asked Wang Liang to send cigarettes to his brothers, his face kept smiling and encouraging everyone, but his heart was dripping blood again, this kind of scene, he saw too much, every time it felt like thousands of ants were biting his heart.

When Doctor Sun heard that Chen Fei was coming, he put down the trivial things in his hand and hurriedly hurried over: "Commander, you are here." Doctor Sun saw Chen Feidao.

Chen Fei nodded and said, "How is the situation?" Doctor Sun wiped the blood on his hands and said with a wry smile: "What else?" There is a shortage of medicines, and if you come to a battle like yesterday, there will be no bandages, and I have asked Xiaomei to coordinate with Chennault, hoping to get some medicines and supplies in the next few days. ”

"No problem, it should be almost there, don't worry." Chen Fei comforted.

Doctor Sun nodded, the two of them have lived and died together from the Battle of Songhu to the present, no matter how difficult the situation is, Chen Fei looked at his old comrade-in-arms and patted Doctor Sun lightly on the shoulder, without any words, everyone understands.

The sky gradually brightened, and Zheng Lao Fang and the reconnaissance battalion actually advanced to Hengyang, at this time Hengyang City was in ruins, and the sound of gunfire and artillery continued.

"Damn, Taishan Army is really tough, after so many days, it can still hold on." The second company commander said.

"Don't talk nonsense, look at where the front is? If you can meet reinforcements, it's best to ask about the situation. Old Zheng said.

"Yes." The commander of the second company replied, and at the same time waved his hand, and the commander of the fifth platoon of the second company ran forward with a platoon of soldiers.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Da Da Da!"

Dozens of devils were attacking around a hotel, a barrage of bullets slicing the collapsed wooden shelves. It is estimated that only a few fighters are defending inside, because there are very few bullets fired.

"Da Da Da!"

"Grenades!"

"Boom, boom!"

The commander of the fifth platoon shouted that the soldiers would attack quickly, and the devils did not expect that such a group of well-equipped Chongqing troops would be killed from behind, and they were shot one after another.

"Come in, get in, we're from the 33rd Army, the 33rd Army." The fifth platoon commander shouted softly in a hurry.

He was afraid that the soldiers inside would be injured by mistake, but when the fifth platoon commander rushed out of the hotel, he saw more than a dozen corpses, and two seriously injured soldiers were struggling to pull the bolt.

"Quick, water, water! Xiao Wang, take a nest head, quick! Five rows of long roads.

"I ······ We ······ Nope······ No, don't ······ Don't give us food. One of the fighters died after speaking, and the other soldier twisted his neck numbly and looked at the fifth platoon leader: "Reinforcements have finally arrived." ”

"Brother, eat something, quick!" The fifth platoon leader said anxiously.

The soldier smiled and said, "Our regimental headquarters is in the orphanage behind. ”

"Brother, drink some water, drink some water." The fifth platoon commander held the kettle and looked at the wounded and said, but he didn't expect the seriously wounded to cough and spit out blood and water, and it didn't take long to close his eyes.

"!" The fifth platoon leader threw away the kettle and scolded angrily.

"Platoon commander, there's a devil coming." One of the fighters shouted.

"! Counterattack! Five rows of long roads.

The fighters ran out of the hotel and collided with a squad of several dozen people.

"Hit~" the fifth platoon commander shouted.

"Dada~"

The leader of the devil squad didn't expect that there was such a well-equipped Chongqing army here now, and he was immediately ready to retreat, but he didn't expect a large number of Chongqing troops to come up from the side, and the squad was slaughtered by the reconnaissance battalion in ten minutes.

"Go, go, the devil will come over soon, go." Old fart Zheng shouted.

The reconnaissance battalion immediately left the area and took refuge on the embankment of the Xiang River, not far away.

"Battalion commander, it's not safe here either." The commander of a company came over and said.

"Well, I know, five platoon leaders, five platoon leaders, what happened just now?" Zheng Lao said.

The fifth platoon commander immediately ran over and told him what had just happened.

"Damn, if you climb over that wall, it's Hengyang City, it seems that you have to wait until the evening to find a way." Zheng Lao Fang pointed ahead, and suddenly there were three or four devils on the other side of the river shooting at the reconnaissance battalion.

", I was found out so quickly, gone, gone, go back the way I came, otherwise I will be made dumplings, hurry." Old fart Zheng shouted.

In fact, God bless the reconnaissance battalion, there was originally a wing of devils here to defend, before dawn, a company of the 97th Army wanted to enter from here, but was discovered by the devils, and was fighting fiercely, so that Zheng Laof's reconnaissance battalion fought back and forth on the edge of the Hengyang city wall.

At this time, the Tenth Army in Hengyang City has been scattered, each defending at the predetermined location, and the communication has been completely cut off, if it weren't for the devils who dropped poison gas bombs the day before, there are more devils in this vicinity, the reconnaissance battalion ran into the grove, and the devils did not chase, they were bent on dealing with the Tenth Army, that is, not letting any Chongqing Army approach or support, Zheng Lao Fang looked at Hengyang City in front of him, and thought, I don't know how many days the Tenth Army can hold out.

"Withdraw!" Old Zheng shouted and left without looking back.
