The special operation of the 34th Division was disembarked at half past one, and this one consisted of a tank company and an infantry battalion. The scale is not very large, but it is the best two units of the division. By less than two o'clock, the force had passed through the U.S. defense area east of the harbor and had been advancing north along the river.

Han Shaofeng waited on his flagship for the news from the front-line troops. At noon, he received a telegram from Task Force 3 that the Americans had switched to storming Lock No. 1, and that the battle was raging there. Task Force 3 sent two cruisers to the north of Balboa Harbor. Anchor in the river to provide artillery support to the ground assault team on the other side of the No. 1 lock. In addition, the ground bombers of the other two task forces are also in full support.

The 27th Division's attack was very fast, and at about one o'clock, its vanguard had already assaulted near Balboa Harbor, but Han Shaofeng still felt that this speed was too slow. He temporarily changed his mind and let the 34th Division advance on land instead of in the river on landing craft. The main forces of the 27th Division had already pressed up and did not go to encircle Panama City as planned. Han Shaofeng gave this task to the 31st Division, which followed the 27th Division to the shore. The defense of the U.S. army in Panama City is not strong, and it is not difficult to take down this small city, and Han Shaofeng is most worried about the commandos in the north, especially the commandos on the side of the No. 1 and No. 2 locks, if the reinforcements of the 34th Division are not right and cannot arrive in time, I am afraid that Yang Chengfu will not be able to hold them for long.

Han Shaofeng turned around, "They've arrived?" ”

The staff officer shook his head and gave the miniature radio to Han Shaofeng.

"I'm Han Shaofeng, if it's not good news, be careful that Lao Tzu killed you with his own hands."

"General. We met the resistance of the U.S. military, it was fierce, and now ......."

"Don't give me a reason, it's got to push, go full throttle!" Han Shaofeng rudely interrupted the other party's words, "I'll give you two hours, no. In an hour, even if you need to climb, you have to climb to the north lock."

"Yes, General! We're going to crawl over even if we're crawling! ”

Han Shaofeng let out a sigh. You go ahead and send the U.S. blocking positions to Task Force 3. Let them make a way for you with artillery fire. Remember. Must rush over within an hour, no matter what method you use. Even if there's only one soldier, you're going to rush for me, you know? ”

"Yes, General!" Huaxia Novel Network

Han Shaofeng put down the micro-radio. He hesitated for a moment and called the staff officer over." Contact Task Force 3 and have them arrange for a few destroyers to support the 34th Division in Beishangdi."

"However, there are so many mines in the river that the ground warships of Task Force 3 cannot penetrate deep into the river. Now they're in the far north."

"Then send our minesweepers, do you want me to teach you?" Han Shaofeng got angry again, "Damn, go tell General Tan Renhao. If their bombers can't open a passage for our commandos in time, then we won't be able to hold the locks to the north. Give up bombing the US military positions in other places for the time being, and make every effort to open the way for the troops in the north! ”

The first to arrive was the 1st Task Force ground bombers, a squadron of "Sea Eagles" quickly abandoned their original mission, using incendiary bombs and bombshells for the 34th Division ground commandos, and those temporarily modified minesweepers rushed into the river. Begin to open a passage for the ground destroyers of Task Force 3. As the 3rd Task Force ground destroyer steadily advanced deeper into the river, the American forces blocking the 34th Division Commando were quickly routed.

Less than half-past two.34 The commandos reached the southern locks, and the situation was much better here, as the commandos on locks 3 and 4 were not attacked by the Americans. The 34th Division did not slow down, and after determining that there was no need for reinforcements here, they continued to advance north along the subway route built by the American army. The railway line was built along the east bank of the canal, starting in Panama City in the south and ending in the port of Colón in the north. After three o'clock, the tank company of the 34th Division reached Monterinho. A railway bridge connects the other side of the lake. The American army had already blown up the bridge and the tank units had to stop . But the U.S. military forgot a little. The ground of attack is the Imperial Marines. A few hundred meters wide of water simply can't stop these marines. As the fleet's artillery fire began to cover the U.S. defensive positions on the opposite shore, the Marines quickly crossed the lake several hundred meters wide. Arrived at the rear of the American position. At this point, Xia # member letter @ number contribution

The sappers were caught up to the ground at about four o'clock, and the Americans only blew up the bridge. The piers were not blown up, so repairing the bridge was relatively simple, and only a section of steel plate was erected between the two piers to allow the infantry to pass quickly. And these bridge-building facilities are ready-made.

Han Shaofeng was before four o'clock. That is, when the sappers began to build the bridge, they received the news.

"The U.S. troops on the other side of Lock No. 2 have been repulsed, and now two companies of ground infantry are rushing to Lock No. 1." The staff officer glanced at Han Shaofeng and did not continue.

"How's the No. 1 lock going?" Han Shaofeng also breathed a sigh of relief at this time.

"It's not clear, the U.S. military is attacking fiercely, and before the 34th Division arrived, they were already in the area, and we don't know the specific situation yet."

"Let the ground troops behind also go up, in addition, the 31st Division will send one unit to the ground as soon as possible, and the other troops will go ashore as soon as possible......" Han Shaofeng suddenly stopped, he looked at the staff officer, "Is there any news?" ”

The staff officer nodded. He didn't dare to lie in front of Han Shaofeng.

Han Shaofeng trembled violently. Isn't it Yang Chengfu......"

"General, when the reinforcements of the 34th Division arrived, there were only 3 soldiers left in Major Yang Chengfu's commando. Major him

"What's wrong with him?" Han Shaofeng stood up suddenly.

"He ......," the staff officer gritted his teeth, "he had already died before the medical officer arrived."

Like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, Han Shaofeng sat on the chair with his butt and within a few seconds. He doesn't even know what he's thinking. Han Shaofeng didn't believe that this was the truth at all, Yang Chengfu walked on the battlefield so many times, every time he was in a catastrophe, the first time he was wounded, his intestines were broken into several pieces by bullets, he survived, and the second bullet pierced his lungs. He also survived, and the third time, the bullet almost cut the major artery, and he still survived. Han Shaofeng couldn't believe that a person like Yang Cheng would not die on the battlefield

Collected by Chinese Chinese netizens, he always thought that Yang Chengfu would live to see the end of the war.

Han Shaofeng took out a cigarette. I struck a few matches and didn't light them. The staff officer immediately lit the cigarette for him.

"Where is Yang Chengfu now?" Han Shaofeng took a few puffs.

"It's being sent back." The staff officer did not know what to say . He has also followed Han Shaofeng for several years, and he is very clear about Yang Chengfu's status in the general's mind.

"When can I send it back?" Han Shaofeng kept his head down, he didn't yell loudly.

"Within an hour, I was ......"

"I see, let someone be quiet, don't bother me."

The staff officer left with interest, maybe he could understand Han Shaofeng's feelings, maybe he couldn't, but he knew. Now the general may be more struck than a single army. Huaxia Chinese website ¥ Han Shao provided

Han Shaofeng had been smoking, he endured the pain in his heart, and his mind was full of things related to Yang Chengfu. Back then, when Han Shaofeng saw Yang Chengfudi, he admired this second lieutenant officer who was about the same age as him. Especially Yang Chengfu's rich knowledge and open-mindedness, which made Han Shaofeng sigh to himself, and later he knew that Yang Chengfu was a returned expatriate, he did not look at Yang Chengfu differently like other locals. He even quarreled with Liao Hanxiang about Yang Chengfu's promotion, and quarreled with the head of personnel of the Marine Corps. He almost wounded the local government officials who came to investigate Yang Chengfu's background. Han Shaofeng has always regarded Yang Chengfu as a brother, and even joked with Yang Chengfu, saying that after the war, the two went to the United States to open a farm and run it together. He never thought of it. Yang Chengfu will fall here.

Han Shaofeng wanted to shout out loud, but he held back. He wanted to cry out loud, and he held back. He regretted it very much, regretted that he shouldn't have recruited Yang Chengfu back. Before leaving, Yang Chengfu told him that he had met a nurse in the hospital, and the two were relatively talkative, and Han Shaofeng even agreed to be his matchmaker. Thinking about it, tears rolled down, Han Shaofeng didn't feel it, and let the tears fall to the floor. Before, he had never shed a tear for the loss of a of his men, and he knew that when there was war, there would be sacrifices. But the place he is most unwilling to lose is Yang Chengfu.

"General......

Hearing the shouts of the staff officers, Han Shaofeng immediately wiped away his tears and then raised his head.

"Major Yang Chengfu's body has been sent back, right down there."

"I'll go right away." Han Shaofeng stood up, and he forced himself to calm down. Huaxia Novel Network

There was only a few tens of meters from the command cabin to the underground bilge of the landing ship, and it took Han Shaofeng ten minutes to cover this distance. He thought more than once that the final destination of the warrior was the battlefield. This is also the best place for warriors. However, he couldn't calm himself down. If this is really the final destination, Han Shaofeng is willing to go to the front, but for most soldiers. They are all looking forward to the moment when the war is over, the moment when they can take off their military uniforms and go home to reunite with their loved ones. If you can live, then why choose to die? Han Shaofeng asked himself this question repeatedly, but there was no answer to this question, if he was in Yang Chengfu's position, he would also choose to die instead of choose life. Death can be seen as a destination or as a responsibility. Life can get a better future, but in exchange for life will only make people suffer and feel guilty for a lifetime. I can't hold my head up for the rest of my life.

Yang Chengfu's body was lying on the cold platform. He doesn't look like he's been sacrificed. And it's like sleeping in ■. One of the longest snores and never wakes up again to snore again. The blood stains on the body have been cleaned up, the bullet is hit in the abdomen, the liver is the most fragile organ of the human body, if the liver is hit by a bullet, even if it is immediately sent to a field hospital with perfect conditions, the chance of survival is less than half. The wound has already been stitched up, which doesn't make much sense. Han Shaofeng covered it with a white cloth, and he took one last look at the pale face, maybe Yang Chengfu would wake up, but this was just an unrealistic idea, perhaps, he was already on the Huangquan Road, and was about to drink Meng Po soup, and was about to cross the Nai He Bridge.

"General, message from the front ......"

Han Shaofeng nodded a little numbly, he took one last look at Yang Chengfu and pulled up the white cloth sheet.

"It's the 27th Division that sent it, and they've already entered the port area."

The guard next to him glared at the staff officer, was it necessary to be in such a hurry to report the battle situation? hua xia # member letter @ number contribution

"Go on." Han Shaofeng quickened his pace.

"The U.S. Army's resistance was weaker than we expected, and the 27th Division was probably able to take today's mouth. In addition, the 31st Division has already surrounded Panama City and is making preparations for the attack.......

"When will Panama City be taken?" Han Shaofeng didn't seem to listen to the staff report.

"Tonight at the earliest, tomorrow at the latest."

"Let the 31st Division attack with all its might, and the 34th Division will be the reserve" In addition, the 34th Division is mainly responsible for supporting the 27th Division, entering the port as soon as possible, and sending the other two Marine Divisions ashore.

"Now the 34th Division is assembling in the direction of the port."

"Contact the task force." Han Shaofeng sat down, his expression had returned to normal, at least let the staff officers think that he had returned to normal." Before dark, I'm going to get all the ground support, and if they can't do it, then we'll do it ourselves when the Marine artillery comes ashore! ”

The staff officer quickly recorded Han Shaofeng's orders.

"In addition, the minesweepers must clear the southern section of the canal before dark, clear the waterway, and strive to allow our troops to go directly north from the canal and enter Lake Gatun at night." Han Shaofeng took out a cigarette, "The 34th Division should allocate a part of its troops to defend the northbound passage and fight back wildly. Try to kill and injure the living forces of the US troops when they counterattack."

"General, where are the American prisoners arranged?"

Han Shaofeng's hands trembled slightly, he wanted to say that he would kill them all, but he couldn't help it. They should be arranged ashore first, and before dark, they should be escorted to the landing ship and strictly guarded.

The staff officer was secretly shocked, this was actually to hand over the power of life and death of the captured land to the troops below to deal with it, which was not a good way, but at this time, he did not dare to put forward other opinions. Maybe the general is trying to vent his anger by pretending to be someone else's hand.
