It just so happened that a lieutenant colonel staff officer came in to report, which made the scene less awkward. ●⌂ Tip novel, according to Jiang Haoran's previous instructions, all the external telephone lines were unplugged, and as soon as they were connected, the phone of the theater commander Xue Yue came in, and the staff officer replied that the army commander had gone to the front line, but now he could not find it. Xue Yue ordered the supreme commander here to answer the phone.

Jiang Haoran looked at Zhang Dabiao and Liu He and smiled, and the three of them walked out of the war room together.

In the headquarters, a telephone receiver was resting on the table, Liu He picked up the receiver and condensed slightly, and said, "Commander, it's me, Liu He!" ”

Xue Yue's roar could be heard through the earpiece: "What about Jiang Haoran?" Your righteous general has escaped, right? I tell you that no one can save him this time."

"Commander, I" As soon as Liu He spoke, the voice in the microphone swept out like a machine gun: "Sue you Liu He, no matter how bad the current situation is, even if you are the only one left, you have to defend the 331 base for Lao Tzu, and all the facilities of the base must not be bombed, otherwise you will become a sinner of the nation through the ages!" Rest assured, reinforcements will definitely arrive before dawn!

The corners of Liu He's mouth were slightly hooked, his face was contemptuous, and he only muttered in his heart: "Only you people can do this kind of thing, and now you may not even be able to keep this 'egg', so use this 'sinner through the ages' to press me, what else can't you do?" But he said: "Commander, before leaving, our commander said that once he can't hold it, he will detonate it immediately, and he must not leave anything for the enemy, otherwise he will punish me for collaborating with the enemy, you say I'm this."

"Hum before you go! It seems that the rumors are true, what qualifications does a runaway general have to punish you, you are now the acting commander of the Nanshan Independent Army, and there is only one task, to defend Lao Tzu! ”

"Yes, Commander, I promise that the enemy will not attempt to enter Base 331 before dawn!"

Liu He's implication is that as long as your reinforcements arrive before dawn, this qiē will still be saved, and if this time passes, your orders will not work.

As soon as the phone hung up, the three of them suddenly laughed out of shape, Zhang Dabiao covered his stomach with one hand and pointed at Jiang Haoran with the other and scolded with a smile: "Hahaha, Yin damage!" You guy, those bastards of the 74th Army and the 75th Army still haven't broken their legs? ”

Half an hour later, Chu Zhongtian called that a brigade of the vanguard of the 74th Army had entered Zhuzhou. Immediately, it was reported that the vanguard of the 75th Army had crossed the river.

Jiang Haoran ordered Chu Zhongtian to wait for 74 to come in, immediately build a defensive line, allow entry but not exit, no matter who it is, anyone who retreats, talk to them with machine guns. He sent water ghosts again, just waiting for the 75th Army to cross the river and immediately blow up the pontoon bridge. At the same time, all units of the base were ordered to withdraw from their outlying positions, enter the tunnels, and block all the exits of the tunnels.

Under the resistance of the Nanshan Independent Army, the Japanese army still advanced to the rear of the 331 base, many factories and workshops and even the granaries that had been emptied have fallen into the hands of the enemy, and the Japanese army has approached the edge of the town. This black hole is empty, no one knows what is going on inside, and the Japanese army no longer dares to venture lightly.

At dawn, a blue sky full of red flags appeared at the end of Zhuzhou Town, and the black pressure behind the banner was crowded, and the tail could not be seen.

Beige military uniform, German-made steel helmet, unified Thomson submachine gun, bulging bullet bag in the waist, each soldier has three or four wooden-handled grenades inserted in his waist, at first glance it is the best elite troops, the Central Army.

The soldiers were dusty, obviously after a long-distance attack, but they were still lined up in unison, with the right hand of the top platoon commander suddenly raised high, the soldiers stopped in unison, and decisively picked up the submachine gun in front of Xiong and swung in a battle formation, showing their excellent military quality, they are the 74th Army, known as the first trump card.

As soon as the troops stopped, a ** major general in his thirties, who looked quite handsome and wore a yellow tweed uniform, stood up from the American-style military jeep in the rear, looked ahead vigilantly, and asked: "What's the situation, why did you stop?" ”

The commander of the top soldier platoon ran over panting, stood up and saluted: "Report to the deputy brigade seat, there was a lot of gunfire just now, I don't know why it's all stopped now, do you want to send troops to check the situation first?" ”

The brigade commander of the major general frowned and said, "It's true, shouldn't we be late, the Japanese army has already captured the 331 base, right?" If this is the case, this Jiang Haoran is also in vain! Leave him alone, and order the troops to attack and advance along the spot where the gunfire had just been fired. ”

"Yes!"

As soon as the knife platoon commander raised his hand, the troops rushed forward, but the major general and brigade commander got out of the jeep and said to the staff officer behind him: "Find a place to set up a command station and tell the 153rd Brigade that it has arrived at the predetermined location and is attacking the enemy." ”

The major general and brigade commander did not know that their army commander was not walking slower than them, but he was not on the same road.

At this time, the jeep of Yu Jishi, the commander of the 74th Army, was rushing all the way to the headquarters of the 331 base. "Whoever arrives first will be the commander of the Nanshan Independent Army," the chairman of the committee said personally. **Among the generals, no one knows the value of the 331 base better than Yu Jishi, even if he breaks his leg, he can't lose this piece of fat to his mouth. By mistake, several opportunities to enter the 331 base have come to naught, this time Jiang Haoran has fled, and the chairman of the committee has already ordered to take his head, to see who can save him, as soon as he thinks of this, Yu Jishi is excited, and he doesn't even care what the war has been going on, has the 331 base fallen into the hands of the enemy? Just rushed in with the guard regiment without hesitation.

Although the road to the 331 base is secret, and if you are not careful, you may go astray, but these are nothing to Yu Jishi, after all, he has been acting as the commander of the base for a few days.

When the east was just white, Yu Jishi had already seen the first line of the base, the blue sky and white sun flag were still fluttering on the pillbox, the steel gate in the mountains was open, and the soldiers were not waiting as they imagined, two columns lined up on both sides of the road, standing like javelins, approaching, only to find that this was actually a guard of honor with Western musical instruments.

"Is this the rhythm of the welcome?" Yu Jishi thought to himself, and the corners of his mouth began to rise unconsciously.

In the melodious sound of musical instruments, the convoy stopped, and an officer with the rank of colonel trotted all the way over, facing Yu Jishi's car is a standard army: "Report to Commander Yu, Gu Changsen, deputy chief of staff of the Nanshan Independent Army, came to greet you on the order of the counselor!" ”

Yu Jishi was sitting in an open-top American jeep, and Yu Jishi was also an acquaintance in the Nanshan Independent Army, although he didn't have much intersection with this Gu Changsen, he was also a familiar face, so he wouldn't recognize the wrong person.
