Chapter 207: The Battle of Nanjing (Retreat)
"Ahem, ahem!"
A violent cough sounded, and Zhu Chi, the commander of the 262nd Brigade, stood up from the ruins, as if he was about to cough his lungs out of his stomach.
Zhu Chi looked at it, the bombing of the unexpectedly devils was really ferocious, and the fortifications that had taken everyone several days of painstaking efforts to build had been blown into ruins and were almost scrapped.
"Traveler!"
Han Xianyuan slapped down the loess and stood up from Zhu Chi's side.
"It's alright!"
"It's okay! It's just that the little devil's bombing came really unexpectedly, the casualties in our brigade are not small, and the fortifications built have also been blown up a lot, if the little devil takes the opportunity to attack at this time, it will be a big bad thing for us! Han Xianyuan worried.
Zhu Chi nodded lightly, and comforted: "Don't worry too much, we still have the Niushou Mountain defense line in front of us, and we will hurry up and build fortifications now...... Maybe it's still too late......"
Han Xianyuan and Zhu Chi have been partners for many years, and from Zhu Chi's pause, Han Xianyuan knew what he was worried about.
The artillery fire of the little devils is too fierce, it seems that they have made up their minds to conquer the city of Nanjing, Niushou Mountain guards the mountain defense line, easy to attack and difficult to defend, if the little devils follow this fierce way of playing, I am afraid that it will not be able to defend for long.
"Brigade, I'll go down and arrange for the fortifications."
In Zhu Chi's nod, Han Xianyuan trotted away.
"Binoculars!"
Zhu Chi shouted, took the binoculars handed over by the orderly, and he wanted to see the situation on the battlefield with his own eyes.
You must know that in this large rear headquarters, his eardrums were blown up a little loudly, and his body was covered with mud and sand, the situation was so bad, not to mention the soldiers who were on the line in advance.
Sure enough, in the telescope, the entire front-line position was already in ruins, and many soldiers were already wounded, supporting each other, and were being bandaged. This scene, although it is a silent scene in Zhu Chi's eyes, makes people feel a sense of sorrow.
"Damn!"
Zhu Chi clenched his fists tightly, but his eyes involuntarily showed helplessness, the little devil's air force is too strong for the national army, and he has absolute air superiority.
And this has also caused that in many cases, a roar of the little devil's plane can completely crush the morale of the defending national army.
Zhu Chi held the telescope in helplessness and silence and looked at the 264th Brigade stationed on the right flank in the distance.
After a long time, he shook his head, the situation of the 264th Brigade was not much better than that of the 262nd Brigade, and the entire position was almost bombed into ruins, and it was being built in misery.
Suddenly, Zhu Chi's mind moved, and he held a telescope to look at the 388th Regiment in the left flank position, he wanted to see what the situation of this 388th Regiment was!
"This ...... How can it be? ”
Zhu Chi was soon shocked, because in the direction of the left flank position as far as he could see, the 388th Regiment was still in full battle, and the fortifications they had built were hardly any traces of destruction.
"Could it be that all the little devils' bombs were dropped on the central position and the right flank position?"
Shocked, Zhu Chi thought of the only reasonable possibility. "Luck...... Let's hope your luck continues to improve! ”
Zhu Chimu shook his head with his eyes, thinking of the next thing, he seemed to forgive the 388 regiment in front of him, which was almost not damaged by the bombing of the little devils.
…… At this moment, in the left flank position, the soldiers were lying behind the position, palpitating, mixed with an incomparable shock.
No one dared to believe that after he and the others had arranged the formation according to the order of the regiment commander, the devil's plane came as if it had been discussed with his regiment commander.
Good guy, no one will show mercy, and the muzzle of the gun that had been prepared for a long time suddenly poured down countless bullets that broke the air, so that the little devil's plane did not dare to set foot in the left flank position for half a step.
From afar, everyone also saw the miserable situation in the central and right-wing positions.
At this moment, the little doubt that all ordinary soldiers had about their regiment commander suddenly turned into ashes.
"Commander, what will the little devil do next?" Although Yang Wang was willing to believe Han Xin from the bottom of his heart, when Han Xin's other speculation came true again, he was still inexplicably shocked.
This kind of thing, it doesn't seem to be numb.
"Haha, Brother Yang, you really think I am a prophet, can I know what will happen in the future!" Han Xin smiled bitterly, and saw Yang Wang's expression of disbelief, and said helplessly:
"Next is a bloody battle, the little devil is about to attack, follow the strategy I said before!"
……
At about 10 o'clock in the morning of the 10th, the 6th Division and the 114th Division of the 10th Army of the Japanese Army captured the Niushou Mountain defense line defended by the 85th Division of the National Army at a shocking speed, and then assembled one of them to launch an attack on Yuhuatai.
The three major positions of Yuhuatai fell into a bitter battle at the same time.
Bang!
The artillery fire of the little devil exploded next to Wu Kai, the commander of the third battalion and the first company defending the front line, and Wu Kai was so excited that his ears instantly roared.
"Company Commander, Company Commander......"
"What do you say? Be louder! ”
"Company commander, the little devil has already waded through minefields, crossed barbed wire, crossed ditches, and charged us!"
"See, tell the brothers to resist me!" Wu Kai yelled, and then personally held a machine gun and rushed towards the little devil.
Minefields, ditches, and barbed wire fences outside the line worked, and the soldiers seized the opportunity to open fire as the little devils waded through these places.
However, the little devil made a great determination to capture Nanjing this time, and in terms of numbers, equipment, weapons, and the quality of soldiers, they were far beyond the defending national army.
Coupled with the full firepower, artillery bombardment, and tank opening, Wu Kai didn't know what the situation of the other positions was at the moment, but he had already felt the great pressure brought by the little devil at the moment.
Under the ferocious artillery fire of the little devils, the soldiers of the entire defense line were almost overwhelmed.
But even if everyone chooses to retreat behind the fortifications, casualties will inevitably begin to spread.
What's more, everyone had to stop the advance of the Japanese army, so in just a few minutes of the exchange of fire, the brothers of the first company had already killed and wounded more than 100 people.
"Company commander, I can't stand it!"
"!" Wu Kai spat fiercely, and then shouted with blood-red eyes: "Evacuate to the second line of defense!"
"Second Company Commander!"
"Haha, Lao Wu, it's not going to work so soon, is it still a man?"
"Fart, you have the ability to go up to the top."
Bang bang! Wu Qi dodged a series of bullets, lay down on the fortifications of the second line of defense, and said to the second company commander angrily.
"Brothers, cheer up Lao Tzu, fire up, and beat me to death!"
The commander of the second company shouted the order, and together with the retreating company, he opened fire on the approaching cabinet devils.
