Sun Yumin didn't know that after his name was handed to the 48th Army by the kind-hearted Ling Weixian along with the telegram asking for help, it was quickly passed from Wei Yunsong's hands to Liao Lei's hands, and then it was reported to Chen Bui and Dai Li, and the shock caused by it was completely out of Ling Weixian's expectations, and it was beyond his control.

When Chen Bui and Dai Li in Chongqing were shocked by the news, Sun Yumin was still on the battlefield.

He fought very his side, and Junichi Miyamoto did not panic because he was attacked from front to back, but appeared extremely calm, calmly commanding the puppet army and the devil soldiers to attack.

The crowd of people who had been pressed forward before was now like a returning tide, surging towards their side, but fortunately they were forcibly suppressed by three times in a row, but it was impossible to drive the enemy forward as before, and now it was a question of whether they could block the impact of the enemy's life.

Even Sun Yumin personally picked up the rifle and helped shoot the devil puppet army officer and machine gunner, Liu Wenzhi also controlled the light machine gun, the familiar two point shots, or two or three point shots, sounded happily on the battlefield again, not only Sun Yumin and Silly Bear around him listened to it well, but even he himself felt excited after not touching the gun for a long time.

The change in the situation on the battlefield happened too quickly, and it was originally the Seventh Regiment that was blocking the attack, but when Sun Yumin's troops attacked from behind, the devil quickly changed the direction of the main attack.

The pressure on the side of the Seventh Regiment went from near collapse to nothing, which made the Seventh Regiment feel incredible from top to bottom, only Yang Kezhi and Xiao Wan watched worriedly, the enemy's butt was now shouting and killing behind the sky, the stray bullets that swept across the sky above the Seventh Regiment from time to time, and the fighting fires that rose from time to time at the place of battle, all clearly showed that the pressure on them here was all turned to that side.

"Head Yang, what should we do?"

Xiao Wan asked.

"I want to lead the seven regiments to attack, but the high commander is watching from behind, who dares to be the master of this privately." Yang Kezhi said angrily that if it weren't for Gao Jingting and the leaders of the four detachments, he would not hesitate to lead his troops to attack.

"I'll report to the commander."

Xiao Wan couldn't bear it anymore, if the Seventh Regiment attacked at this time, he would be the first to rush down, but Yang Kezhi had concerns and didn't dare to give this order, so he had to hurry up and ask for instructions.

"No, I'm here."

Through the thick smoke of gunpowder on the battlefield, Gao Jingting's voice came from not far away: "Yang Kezhi, what are you arranging for me?" ”

Before seeing him, he heard his voice first, for this, Yang Kezhi seemed to be surprised, he didn't even look back, and said: "Who has the courage to arrange you?" I just feel that Sun Dongjia's side is very difficult, and if we don't do it again, the enemy will definitely break through his troops and run back to Lu'an in a grand manner. ”

"Now that you've seen it, you're still staring here?"

When Gao Jingting said this, he had already come to Yang Kezhi's side.

"I'm not waiting for your ......"

Yang Kezhi replied habitually, and in the middle of his words, he suddenly understood what Gao Jingting meant, and hurriedly jumped into the trench, and the shell gun in his hand waved forward violently, and shouted loudly: "Seven regiments, all attack forward." ”

Before Yang Kezhi's shout fell, Xiao Wan jumped onto the trench and took the lead in rushing forward, allowing Gao Jingting to jump to his feet in a hurry, disappearing into the night like a nimble little leopard.

"Go and inform the pistol regiment and cooperate with the seventh regiment to launch an attack on the enemy."

Xiao Wan ran to the front battlefield, and the order could only be conveyed by other communicators.

It's time to put him in the army, the little one's wings have grown stiff, and I can no longer use him as a fledgling eagle to stop his ambition to soar into the sky.

On Sun Yumin's side, despite the desperate blocking and suppression of the first and third companies, the enemy still broke through the improvised defensive line. It was already unstoppable, and the Seventh Regiment attacked again, forcing the troops of Junichi Miyamoto and Zhang Changde to attack regardless of casualties, and finally broke a gap from the temporary position of the third company, Junichi Miyamoto, Zhang Changde and hundreds of devil puppet troops rushed out of the situation, although Dong Wenbin organized the troops to risk death to plug this gap, but they were no longer able to pursue the fleeing enemy.

The remaining enemies, cornered, began to crumble. Most of the puppet soldiers surrendered on their knees, and some devil soldiers who did not want to be prisoners began to raise their guns to kill themselves, and a few devil soldiers committed suicide by disemboweling themselves with bayonets, and the remaining devil soldiers who were afraid of death also followed the example of the puppet army, kneeling on the ground and holding their rifles in both hands and holding them high above their heads.

When Sun Yumin saw Dong Wenbin, he was almost a bloody man, and he didn't know if it was his blood, or the blood of the enemy, or the blood of the soldiers, anyway, he was like a person fished out of the blood water.

"Boss, punish me."

Dong Wenbin knelt directly on his knees, his eyes were full of crystal clear tears, but there was no choking and trembling in his voice. This is still the second lieutenant telecommunications officer in Nanjing City who seemed to be weak and weak, and he was clearly forged into a real man and an excellent officer by the war. It is said that there is gold under the man's knees, but on this blood-stained battlefield, he knelt down, and it was still painful and sad. In order to plug this gap, the third company almost exerted all its strength, and the whole company went down from Dong Wenbin, and no one was not injured. How cruel this is, from the formation of the Third Company to this bloody battle, the combat power shown can be said to be completely beyond Dong Wenbin's own expectations, and even more beyond Sun Yumin's estimates. It can be said that since the war, the third company, which has been formed in the shortest time, has a much higher status in Sun Yumin's mind than before. Looking at the stubborn man kneeling in front of him, Sun Yumin suddenly felt a little ashamed in his heart, if he hadn't resolutely decided to fight Huo Shan, how could Sanlian have such a big casualty, how could this bloody man kneel on the battlefield in front of so many people and ask for his punishment.

Sun Yumin grabbed him and said, "Remember tonight, remember this place, the Third Company is good, although some enemies have run away from you, but it can't erase the deeds of the Third Company." Although you have not done it perfectly, tonight is the day of three bloody rebirths, look at your soldiers, who will not be a man of iron bones in the future. ”

Sun Yumin rarely persuaded people, but if he didn't say anything here at this time, the Third Company would never be able to raise his head in the Volunteer Regiment, and he would always be pointed at his back and gossip: when he fought the Lu'an devils, the enemy fled from the Third Company.

The wounded soldiers of the three companies standing behind Dong Wenbin burst into tears when they heard these words that penetrated their hearts and lungs. These people, the enemy's artillery fire and bullets have never made them afraid, even if they are seriously injured, no matter how painful the wound is, it has never made them cry, but Sun Yumin's words of understanding, this words of distress for them, but they have tears in their eyes, with such a chief, what are they not satisfied with.

Gao Jingting watched all this not far away, and couldn't help but sigh: "With such a person and a group of soldiers like this, it is no wonder that he has such great courage to dare to fight the county town and dare to die against the enemy's retreat." ”

He knew very well that even if it was his four detachments that attacked from behind tonight, they might not be able to fight better than others, and they might not be able to block the retreat of nearly 3,000 enemies.

He was about to walk over to greet Sun Yumin and discuss follow-up matters such as cleaning up the battlefield, but a scene happened in front of him that shocked him even more.

Many soldiers wearing the clothes of the Imperial Army, but with white towels wrapped around their arms, swarmed behind the wounded soldiers of the Third Company, and people kept shouting: "I want to join the Third Company." ”

"I'm not going anywhere except Sanlian."

"I'm going to Sanlian too."

……

Sun Yumin hugged Dong Wenbin tightly, and then pushed him to Liu Wenzhi, and after the two also hugged, they were only pushed to Deng Dongping, Silly Xiong, Dai Cunxiang, Zhou Shanjun, and Huang Wei......

Gao Jingting didn't expect Sun Yumin to be so generous, except for taking away hundreds of surrendered puppet soldiers who were willing to follow him, he didn't ask for all the captures, and even asked him not to involve him and the Yangshupu Volunteer Regiment when he reported his achievements.

Gao Jingting understands his approach very well, after all, there is no such person as him in the world, and the former "God of War" suddenly appeared, which will make some people unhappy.

Gao Jingting verbally agreed to him, but who knew that before the battle started, Chief of Staff Ling Weixian reported the matter, which of course included Sun Yumin.

…………

Chen Bui is very tired these days. After moving to Chongqing with Lao Jiang, he was even more busy. After the loss of Wuhan, although the troops participating in the frontal battlefield of the Nationalist Government suffered heavy losses, they still had the strength to fight again. At that time, the strength of the first line of the frontal front had increased to 261 infantry divisions and 50 independent brigades. There were also partial splits and vacillations within the Kuomintang, and a shocking scandal broke out: On December 18, 1938, Wang Jingwei, vice president of the Kuomintang and chairman of the National Council for Political Participation, absconded from Chongqing to Hanoi and defected to the enemy. There were also more than 10 other Kuomintang dignitaries Chen Gongbo, Zhou Fohai, Chu Minyi, and Zeng Zhongwu.

Zhang Changde's Lu'an Independent Brigade is a product of this period, Wang Jingwei, the No. 2 person of the Nationalist Government, ascended to the heights, many local security regiments and militia groups, and even a small number of national army troops flew to him like flies, rotten eggs that have been broken, and the 550,000 Imperial Cooperative Army was formed in just one or two months.

Lao Chiang is now really in the midst of external and internal troubles, not only to deploy and organize troops to fight against Japan, but also to eliminate the bad influence of Wang Zhaoming's defection and to organize a new government. As his personal staff, Chen Bui will naturally be very busy.

And that's not even counting, according to intelligence, the commander of the Japanese Central China Dispatch Army, Shunroku Hatata, and the commander of the 11th Army, Okamura Ninji, were already planning to attack Nanchang.

Historically, in order to consolidate the occupation of Wuhan and secure the waterway of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the Japanese base camp and the "Central China Dispatch Army" stationed the 11th Army in Wuhan. According to the regulations of the Japanese army's base camp, its combat area is generally maintained in the area between Anqing, Xinyang, Yueyang, and Nanchang with Wuhan as the center and the adjacent key points. Nanchang is the capital of Jiangxi Province, the meeting point of the Nanxun Railway and the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway, and the hub of the rear liaison and supply lines of China's Ninth and Third Theaters, and has an important strategic position. Based at Nanchang Airport, the Chinese Air Force often attacked Japanese naval vessels sailing in the Yangtze River near Jiujiang, posing a great threat to the rear supply lines of the Japanese forces in Jiujiang and Wuhan. During the Wuhan operation, the Central China Dispatch Army Headquarters attempted to send troops to capture Nanchang, but because the 106th Division was encircled and annihilated by the 1st Corps of the Chinese Ninth Theater at Wanjialing, northwest of De'an, when the 106th Division attacked south along the Nanxun Road, it suffered heavy casualties and was forced to stop its advance; After the Battle of Wuhan, in order to cut off the communication lines from Zhejiang, Anhui, and Jiangxi to the rear through the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Road, remove the threat to the Jiujiang River and the Yangtze River waterway, and occupy the Nanchang airfield in order to shorten the range of its strategic bombing of southern China, it was decided that the units of the 11th Army would first carry out the Nanchang operation after resting and replenishing.

Although this battle was fought by the troops of the Ninth War Zone, all kinds of telegrams still flew to Chen Bui's desk like snowflakes, and the private telegrams sent to him by Liao Lei also became one of these telegrams.

But fortunately, Chen Bui has a very good habit that the day's affairs must be dealt with on the same day, otherwise he will not even sleep soundly.

When Liao Lei's message was unfolded, Chen Bui, who was already tired, bounced up from his chair in shock.

There was only one sentence written on the telegram: Yan and brother, and his son-in-law Sun Yumin are attacking Huoshan.

Chen Bui has always had a hidden pain in his heart, that is, this son-in-law. Not to mention how many faces Sun Yumin gave him, and not to mention how much effort he put into this son-in-law, just after hearing the news of his death, people simply collapsed, and then lost their traces, and now they can't even find her, and they don't know whether they are alive or dead.

It can be said that in the battle of Chengzi Town on the Yangtze River, the national army only lost an excellent general, and not only lost his son-in-law, but also lost his favorite daughter by the way.

Chen Bui is also a person, he also has seven emotions and six desires, joys, sorrows, and sorrows. At that time, when the news of Sun Yumin's martyrdom came, he was also sad, but he didn't expect that his daughter, this stubborn girl, would be crushed by the news, and she lay on the bed for a whole month, emaciated. Finally recovered, but lost a trace within a few days, entrusted Dai Lia to help find out, only to know that she went to Shanghai, originally thought she was looking for her eldest brother, but she didn't go at all, this girl has since lost contact with herself, and those brothers who love her.

In the final analysis, all of this came from the news of Sun Yumin's martyrdom, but now suddenly Liao Lei sent himself such a telegram, which undoubtedly threw a boulder on the calm lake, making him unable to sleep all night long, and unable to calm down all night.

After sitting in the office until dawn, he was just about to go to wash up, when the secretary knocked on the door and came in, holding two telegrams in his hands, and said: "Director, the 21st Group Army and the New Fourth Army have both sent good news. ”

"The New Fourth Army?" Chen Bui asked rhetorically, he could still understand Liao Lei's good news, because he received a private call from him last night, saying that Sun Yumin was fighting Huoshan, and he obediently thought that it was Sun Yumin who was fighting devils with the troops of the 21st Group Army. Now the New Fourth Army suddenly appeared, and he suddenly had a bad idea in his heart, could it be that Sun Yumin cheated to death in order to join there?
