General Headquarters of the Second Army

Sun Lianzhong was surveying the battle situation in the command headquarters and directing his troops to fight.

In addition to the 31st Division of Chifengcheng, which is still defending Taierzhuang, Wu Pengju's independent 44th Brigade under Feng Anbang's 42nd Army, as well as Huang Qiaosong's 27th Division and the 110th Division of the 30th Army, all of which were filled into the Battle of Taierzhuang.

The rest, such as Tian Zhennan's 30th Army under the Second Group Army, and Lu Han's 60th Army were all silhouetted on the outer line of Taierzhuang, fighting fiercely with the Japanese army.

That's it, not counting Wang Mingzhang's 122nd Division, which had been wiped out by the Japanese army before!

It is no exaggeration to say that for the time being, his Second Army has already invested all its forces into it.

Therefore, if Taierzhuang loses this battle, his second army will definitely collapse, and it is not impossible that the whole army will be wiped out!

Faced with this situation, how can Sun Lianzhong not be in a hurry?

The entire general headquarters did not stop ringing the telephone because he commanded the whole group army to fight, and he was busy with his feet not touching the ground, and his body was already soaked with sweat.

His officers were also transferred by the regiments under his command.

"Commander, Division Commander Zhang Zhen's 110th Division was attacked by the Japanese army, and the front was in danger, Division Commander Zhang called and said that he wanted to ask the commander to send reinforcements!" An officer covered the phone with his hand and said loudly to Sun Lianzhong, who was standing in front of another phone.

Sun Lianzhong seemed to be arguing with another person on the phone, and when he heard this, he immediately shouted loudly: "Damn, I asked for reinforcements everywhere, did Lao Tzu make it up for you!" You told Zhang Zhen that there were no reinforcements, but the position was going to be defended for me! Even if he dies, he will die on the position, if the position is lost, Lao Tzu will shoot him! ”

"Yes!" Hearing this, the officer immediately nodded and said.

"Humph!" Sun Lianzhong snorted coldly, then picked up the phone in his hand and continued: "I'll tell you Tang Enbo, if you fucking coax me now, Lao Tzu will sue the commission, and I will argue with you about a result!" ”

After that, without waiting for the other party to speak, Sun Lianzhong hung up the phone directly.

After hanging up the phone, Sun Lianzhong was still a little angry and sat there and took a few quick breaths, and couldn't help but scold and said: "Tang Enbo, who was raised by a son of a bitch, Lao Tzu talked to him well, my second group army has been filled in with all his mother, he actually wants to retreat at this time, you listen to me, if he dares to retreat, even if it is to the commission, I will not rest with him!" ”

Hearing this, none of the staff officers of the command dared to answer.

After all, this is a grudge between two bigwigs, who dares to speak out? I don't know how to die.

Besides, what Sun Lianzhong said was just an angry word, and Tang Enbo would never dare to make a moth at this time, and he wouldn't dare to borrow ten dares!

After all, the Battle of Taierzhuang has reached the most critical moment, if Tang Enbo dares to withdraw at this time, the first one on the commission side will not let him go!

Maybe in order to stabilize the morale of the army, the first one to use him will be sacrificed to the flag!

Not to mention that the staff officers were all cautious, and seeing where their commander was sulking, they even spoke quietly.

However, at this time, a staff officer suddenly held the phone and said loudly: "Commander, Chi Fengcheng of the 31st Division wants to talk to you!" ”

"Chifeng City?" Hearing this, Sun Lianzhong frowned, then walked to the staff officer, took the phone, and said, "I'm Sun Lianzhong!" ”

Hearing Sun Lianzhong's words, Chi Fengcheng said in a loud voice: "Old sir, my 31st Division was ordered to garrison Taierzhuang to resist the Japanese army, and has fought fiercely with the Japanese army so far, with heavy casualties!" Logically speaking, I shouldn't have said this at this time, but ...... But old sir, my 31st Division has been beaten into an empty shelf! I only ask the old commander to be gracious and let my 31st Division transfer its position and temporarily withdraw to the south bank of the canal! ”

"If I die in Chifeng City, I will die, but the 31st Division can't be wiped out like this! We have to leave some spark for our 31st Division, old sir! ”

Chi Fengcheng burst into tears and said miserably.

Listening to the miserable words on the other end of the phone, Sun Lianzhong wanted to flatly refuse, but he swallowed it in an instant.

He can't say anything if he refuses!

The 31st Division in his Second Army can be said to be the most difficult unit except for the 122nd Division, which has been completely annihilated!

With the crowd of a division, he fought fiercely with the Japanese army in the small Taierzhuang for eight days and nights, and the entire division had been beaten into an empty shelf, what else could he say about such a unit?

What more could he ask for?

Besides, the 31st Division is the ace division of his Second Army, such a tragic fighting spirit, such a big damage is tantamount to cutting flesh on his heart, and he Sun Lianzhong is not an iron-hearted person, how can he not be heartbroken!

He also feels distressed!

Under such circumstances, he should not be asking the 31st Division to continue to hold on!

But...... Whether the troops can withdraw or not, this is not something he can decide at all!

Even if he wanted to withdraw the 31st Division, he was powerless!

Thinking of this, Sun Lianzhong was silent for a moment, listening to the low choking on the other end of the phone, Sun Lianzhong could even think that a dignified seven-foot man, a general who killed decisively on the battlefield, was now in tears and hoarse.

In this situation, if you can not make the people who hear it sad and the people who see it cry?

"Hoo ......"

Taking a deep breath, Sun Lianzhong said in a deep voice: "The 31st Division is the trump card of my Second Army, and you Chi Fengcheng are also my old subordinates, how can you sit idly by as an old commander?" But...... Withdrawing from positions is not something I can decide! ”

Hearing this, Chi Fengcheng's heart was half cold, and he hurriedly said, "Old sir......"

"Slow down!" Before Chi Fengcheng could continue to speak, Sun Lianzhong continued: "Don't worry! Although I can't decide, but I'll find someone who can give you a decision, you can rest assured, you are my old subordinate, the 31st Division is also my trump card, and now I have lost so many people, not only you are distressed, I am also distressed, the 31st Division's heavy losses are tantamount to cutting my heart with a knife, how can I sit idly by! ”

"You wait patiently for a while, I will go to Li Zongren, the commander of the Fifth Theater of Operations, and ask him to give an order to let your 31st Division withdraw first for the time being!"

Hearing this, Chi Fengcheng was immediately overjoyed, and said urgently: "Thank you, old sir!" Thank you, sir! As long as my 31st Division can leave a little fire, even if I die here in Chifeng City, I will have no regrets! ”
