Chapter 576: Winter Sweep (52)

At the same time, Beacon Hill, the position of the second battalion of the New Fourth Army.

"Battalion commander, the devil has withdrawn!"

Gao Ming looked at the devils who retreated in an orderly manner, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the ground, and turned his head to look at the instructor Chen Kefeng who was sitting on the side. The two men looked at each other and laughed in unison. Chen Kefeng said: "Old Gao, I almost thought that I was going to be honored here today. ”

Gao Ming smiled and quipped: "You are too ugly, Lord Yama dislikes you and doesn't want to accept you as a son-in-law." ”

Chen Kefeng continued: "Old Gao, we are already so difficult here, why don't you transfer the third company up?!" ”

Gao Ming said: "Fighting a war is like doing business. Whether it's the final counterattack or retreat, you always have to keep some capital in your hands, right?! The triple is the last capital in my hands. ”

"Battalion commander, regiment commander urgent!" As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, the correspondent walked up to Gao Ming with a telegram.

Gao Ming was stunned, took the telegram and read it. After two or three minutes, Gao Ming handed the telegram to Chen Kefeng. Chen Kefeng took the telegram, quickly read the contents of the telegram, and said in surprise: "The regiment commander told us to retreat?!" ”

Gao Ming nodded slightly and said, "I know what the head of the regiment is worried about. The regiment commander regarded our second battalion as the last capital of the whole regiment. ”

Chen Kefeng asked: "Then can we withdraw or not?!" ”

"Withdraw!" Gao Ming continued: "But we can't withdraw like this!" ”

When Chen Kefeng heard Gao Ming's words, a puzzled expression appeared on his face. Gao Ming said with a smile: "We are a country of etiquette. Pay attention to coming and not being rude. Since the little devil has been fighting with us for so long, we must give them a welcome gift, right?! Saying that, Gao Ming said to the correspondent: "Pass my order and let the soldiers make the bullets and grenades scattered on the ground into tricks." ”

"Yes!" The correspondent answered, and immediately conveyed the clever order. 、

Chen Kefeng asked, "Since we want to withdraw." Have you figured out where to retreat?! ”

Gao Ming took out the map, pointed to the place where the circle was drawn on the map, and said, "Let's retreat to the day gate." As long as we control the door for a day, the little devils have nothing to do with us. ”

Chen Kefeng nodded slightly and said, "One day gate is a good place." This place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as you put a platoon, you can block the attack of at least one brigade of devils. Withdraw to the door for a day, I have no opinion! ”……

The words were divided into two ends, and when Gao Ming led the troops to evacuate Beacon Mountain, Nagato's rib guards arrived at the headquarters. Walking into Uchida's military tent, Nagato bowed respectfully to him. After signaling Nagato's rib guard to sit down on his right side, Uchida Takayuki said, "You two must be very strange, why did I ask you to stop attacking, right?!" ”

Seeing that Nagato and Matsuzaki Takezaburo nodded, Uchida Takayuki continued, "I just received a telegram from Commander Okamura Ninji, and he is very angry that we have not yet eliminated the Tenwolf Division. And we were ordered to be fully annihilated within forty-eight hours. ”

Nagato rib guard said: "Your Excellency, there is no problem on my side!" I promise that within forty-eight hours, all the troops of Beacon Hill will be destroyed! As he spoke, Nagato looked at Takezaburo Matsuzaza, who was sitting opposite. Matsuzaki Takezaburo said: "Your Excellency General, if there is a plane to help in the battle, don't say forty-eight hours, I only need two hours to take the copper bulge." ”

Nagato sneered and said, "If I had a plane to help fight, I wouldn't have been able to use forty-eight hours." ”

"That's it!" Takayuki Uchida interrupted coldly: "When is it, you two are still fighting like this." The face of the emperor ** official has been lost by you! ”

Hearing Uchida's words, Nagato and Matsuzaki Takezaburo glared at each other and fell silent. Takayuki Uchida continued: "The commander gave us forty-eight hours, but you two don't have that much time. I'll give you thirty hours. Thirty hours later, you still can't eliminate that person, you two seppuku apologize! ”

"Hey!" Nagato and Matsuzaki Takezaburo stood up and responded in unison.

After Nagato and Matsuzaki Takezaburo left, Takashi Uchida walked out of the command tent, looked at the copper bulge not far away, and couldn't help but sigh. The attendant standing in the back asked, "Your Excellency General, you have worked hard for so many days, and it is still early, do you want to take a break?!" “

Takayuki Uchida shook his head, remembering the jade broken Shimizu Masao, and said coldly: "Go and call Saburo Taniguchi!" ”

"Hey!" The squire walked away quickly. After about ten minutes, the attendant came behind Uchida Takayuki with a young captain. The young captain saluted respectfully and said, "Your Excellency General, are you looking for me?!" ”

Takayuki Uchida turned to look at Saburo Taniguchi and said, "Taniguchi-kun, you must already know about Masao Shimizu's jade shattering at the windmill mouth, right?!" ”

"Yes!" Taniguchi Saburo nodded slightly, and then said, "Your Excellency General, please allow me to lead the troops to the windmill mouth to eliminate the branch there!" Please! Saburo Taniguchi bowed ninety degrees to Takayuki Uchida.

Uchida Takayuki picked up Saburo Taniguchi and said, "Taniguchi-kun, Masao Shimizu is your uncle, and he saved me not long ago. I'm not an ungrateful person. I'm giving you this chance. But you only have twenty-four hours. Twenty-four hours later, whether you kill those people or not, you must give me back!" ”

"Hey!" Saburo Taniguchi responded, and said with some excitement: "Thank you, Your Excellency General!" ”

Takayuki Uchida said to the attendants, "Give my guard squadron to Taniguchi-kun." With that, Uchida Takayuki walked towards the military tent.

"Hey!" The attendant and Saburo Taniguchi watched Takashi Uchida walk into the tent, and the two looked at each other. The attendant then took Saburo Taniguchi and walked towards the place where the guard squadron was stationed.

When Saburo Taniguchi and his troops left the garrison and rushed to the windmill, Takezaburo Matsuzaki commanded his troops to attack Tonggubao again.

Looking at the front of the position, the devil who is constantly advancing slowly with the earthwork. A strange smile appeared on Hong Yu's face. Tang Xingye said: "Commander, what the hell is the little devil doing?!" ”

Hong Yu said: "The little devil is afraid of being blown up by us. Therefore, we will use the method of earthwork to advance here. Saying that, Hong Yu said to the high-speed rail: "Gather all the snipers and shoot those devils who dig trenches!" ”

"Yes!" The high-speed rail answered, and left in a huff. It didn't take long for the high-speed rail to gather all the people present with good marksmanship, find a position with a wide field of vision, and shoot the devils who were working in the earthwork.

They are happy on the high-speed rail, and the little devils are also very tenacious. They shot one by the high-speed train, and someone immediately filled the position in front of them. In this way, the devil's earthwork excavated more than 100 meters, but lost the strength of a squadron. Seeing such a high casualty rate, Takezaburo Matsuzaki began to have doubts about his own ideas.

Yagyu Kumura said, "Your Excellency, although our casualties are very large, this is a very effective method. As long as you can eliminate the support of the copper bulge within the specified time, there is nothing to lose some troops?! It is their glory that they can be shattered for the Holy War of the Empire! ”

Takezaburo Matsuzaki nodded slightly and said, "You're right!" Then he said to the herald: "Order the troops in front to speed up the tunneling." Be sure to get close to the man's position before dark! ”

"Hey!" The herald answered, and walked away quickly. ……

Hong Yu, who was standing in the trench, saw that the devil under the mountain suddenly accelerated his excavation, and his brows immediately furrowed. At the same time, Tang Xingye also found something wrong, came to Hong Yu's side, and said, "Commander, the devil has accelerated the speed of tunneling. What do we do next?! ”

Hong Yu said: "Since the devils want to occupy our position so much, then we will give it to them." Explosives were planted in the trenches and we withdrew to the second line of defense. ”

"Yes!" Tang Xingye answered, and immediately got busy with the idle soldiers. ……

Time passed little by little, and when Hong Yu retreated to the second line of defense with his troops, it gradually became dark. Just as Hong Yu and the others were having dinner, a deafening explosion sounded about five hundred meters away from the position, and then the skyrocketing fire reflected the sky red.

Hearing the explosion, the soldiers who were sitting in the trenches eating all stood up and looked in the direction from which the explosion came. Tang Xingye said: "Commander, it seems that the little devil has occupied the first line of defense that we have abandoned. ”

Hong Yu nodded slightly and said, "According to the little devil's dispatch, it is estimated that this line of defense will not last long." ”

"So what do we do?!" Tang Xingye asked with a frown.

Hong Yu took a sip of water and said, "We've been fighting devils for so many days, and it's almost over." Saying that, Hong Yu raised his wrist, looked at the time on his watch, and said, "According to the time, Gao Ming and they should have withdrawn to the vicinity of the Tianmen Gate." ”

Tang Xingye said: "There is no second battalion guarding Beacon Hill and blocking the way of the devils. The troops attacking Beacon Hill will surely detour back to us and flank us back and forth with the devils in front of us. ”

Hong Yu said with a smile: "They came just in time. We're going to give it to the devils who have come around and let them eat dogs. ”

When Hong Yu and Tang Xingye were discussing the next step, a soldier ran up to Matsuzaki Takezaburo and said, "Your Excellency Osa, that person has planted a lot of explosives on the position. When we occupied the man's position, someone accidentally detonated the explosives. ”

Takezaburo Matsuzaki turned his head to look at the soldiers who came to report the news, then looked at Yagyu Kumura and asked, "Yanagisaki-kun, what do you think?!" ”

Yanagi Kumura said with a smile: "Your Excellency, doesn't this just show that our tactics are effective?!" I believe that as long as we continue with our current methods, it will not take us thirty hours to eliminate the person who controls the copper bulge. ”
