Liu Xing, Forward Command Post of the Fifth Army.

"Junzuo, this is the telegram that Tang Guangji just sent."

General Zhang took the telegram handed over by the confidential staff officer, quickly read the contents of the telegram, and his expression became solemn. Yu Jishi, the commander of the 88th Division, who was sitting on the side, saw General Zhang's sad face and asked, "Brother Wenbai (General Zhang's cousin), is there something in trouble?!" ”

General Zhang nodded, handed the telegram in his hand to Yu Jishi, and said, "When the teaching corps was transferred to the Qiyakou line, I withheld half of the troops as a reserve. Now the Japanese army is storming Qiyakou. Tang Guangji was short of troops and asked for reinforcements. ”

Yu Jishi said: "You just threw the teaching corps you held in your hands into battle, and now it is impossible to withdraw it. For now, we had to find another unit to put out the fire. ”

General Zhang smiled bitterly: "In the entire Songhu battlefield, the little devils have invested nearly 100,000 troops, and there are also aircraft and artillery. We have just over 50,000 troops. The forces were already stretched. Now I'm going to find troops to reinforce Tang Guangji! ”

Yu Jishi said: "Brother Wen Bai, have you forgotten Song Xilian's 161st Brigade. They had just stepped down from the front. Why don't you send the department to reinforce the teaching corps?! ”

General Zhang stood up, walked back and forth in the bunker twice, stopped suddenly, and said categorically: "That's all it takes." Then he said to the confidential staff officer: "Order the Song Xilian Department to reinforce Qiyakou." ”

More than ten minutes later, when Song Xilian received General Zhang's order to rush to Qiyakou with his troops, about two brigades of Japanese troops, under the cover of naval guns, launched another attack on the Qiyakou line.

Time passed little by little, and in the face of wave after wave of attacks by the little devils, the casualties of the sergeant battalion became larger and larger. It gradually got dark, and the little devil did not stop attacking because it was about to get dark, but the attack became more violent.

"Da da da......" Leng Guofeng puffed out his face and gritted his teeth, holding the Makqin heavy machine gun with a very hideous face, constantly strafing the little devil who rushed over.

"The barracks, the gap in the position on the left has been blocked." Mao Guomi ran to Leng Guofeng's side, picked up the grenade placed on the side, pulled out the string and threw it out, and then said: "I counted it just now, and there are only one hundred and fifty-three people in our battalion on the position now. The most terrible thing is that most of the platoon commanders have already died. ”

"What?!" Leng Guofeng turned his head and glanced at Mao Guomi, and said, "According to the current situation of the little devil." If they don't take it today, we won't stop attacking. You immediately go to Qiya Village, organize all the guns you can hold, and pull them up. Lao Tzu is out of the way, even if the whole camp is exhausted, Lao Tzu will gnaw the little devil in front of him. ”

"Yes!" Mao Guomi responded and left quickly. As soon as he was halfway there, Mao Guomi saw Hong Yu walking in front of the team, hurriedly greeted him, and asked, "Hong Yu, why did you come up?!" ”

Hong Yu replied, "Doctor Lin is worried that you don't have enough troops in front of you, so I asked me to bring people to reinforce you." ”

Mao Guomi looked behind Hong Yu and asked, "How many people are there?!" ”

Hong Yu replied, "Plus our class, fifty-seven people. ”

Mao Guomi was stunned for a moment, looked at the soldiers behind Hong Yu carefully, sighed, and asked loudly: "Brothers, it is possible that we will all die here this time, are you afraid?!" ”

"Don't be afraid! Unafraid! The soldiers shouted in unison.

"Good!" Mao Guomi nodded slightly, looked at Hong Yu and the enlisted students beside him, and said, "You haven't really experienced the war, you go now, no one will say anything about you." ”

Hong Yu turned his head and quickly glanced at his companions around him, and said, "Battalion deputy, don't look down on people. You veterans, which one hasn't gone through the step of Xinding?! Besides, we are enlisted students, and we will lead troops to fight in the future. Today we turned around and left, the fortune was saved, how will we lead the troops in the future. What's more, we are now soldiers, and if we escape from the battle, we will go to court-martial! ”

Mao Guomi glanced at Hong Yu and asked in a cold voice, "Do you all have the same idea as Hong Yu?!" ”

"Yes!" The enlisted students replied in unison.

Mao Guomi took a deep breath, waved his arms, and roared, "Let's go!" ”

In the blink of an eye, Mao Guomi led people into the position, came to Leng Guofeng's side, and said, "Camp, everyone has brought!" ”

Leng Guofeng threw out a grenade and asked, "How many people?!" ”

Mao Guomi replied: "Including the enlisted students, there are fifty-seven in total." ”

Leng Guofeng was stunned and turned his head to look at it, and said, "Let Hong Yu temporarily act as the platoon commander and hand over the position on the left to him." ”

When Mao Guomi heard Leng Guofeng's words, he was stunned and looked at Leng Guofeng a little bewildered. Leng Guofeng saw that Mao Guomi did not react, turned his head to look at Mao Guomi, and said, "I know what you are worried about, but I have no choice now." Just now another platoon commander and a squad leader were killed. ”

"I see!" After that, Mao Guomi walked up to the reinforced soldiers and said, "Hong Yu, you have been appointed as the acting platoon commander, and the position on the left will be handed over to you." ”

Hong Yu nodded heavily and swore a promise: "The people are in the position." Swear to live and die with the position. After saying that, Hong Yu waved his hand and shouted, "Let's go!" ”

Soon Hong Yu rushed to the left position with people, and at this time there was no one alive in the left position. There were corpses of soldiers in the sergeant battalion and corpses of devils everywhere. There was no time to clean up the corpses in the trenches, and a large number of devils had already pounced. Hong Yu raised the gun and shouted while pulling the trigger: "Fight! ”

Suddenly, there was a loud burst of gunfire in the position, and grenades flew out one after another, exploding one after another in the devil's attack team. Taking advantage of the brief chaos in the devil team, Hong Yu pulled out his bayonet and loaded it in front of the rifle, shouting: "Follow me!" After that, Hong Yu took the lead in jumping out of the trench and entered the ranks of the devils.

After a fight, after more than half an hour, the devil couldn't bear it and finally retreated. Looking at the devils who retreated in an orderly manner, Tang Xingye walked to Hong Yu's side. Hong Yu asked, "Are you okay?!" ”

Tang Xingye shook his head, turned his head to look at the soldiers who were busy cleaning up the battlefield, and said, "More than half of the people we brought here suffered casualties. It's hard to fight next. ”

Hong Yu heard Tang Xingye's words, turned around, and just wanted to say something, there was a sound of cannonballs flying and rubbing against the air in the sky. Hong Yu, who had been subjected to the devil's shell last night, already had experience, and while lying down, he yelled: "Lie down!" ”

"Boom ......" As soon as Hong Yu's words fell, a series of shells fell from the sky, and in the blink of an eye, the entire position was shrouded in the dust kicked up by the explosion of the shells. After more than half an hour, the sound of shell explosions gradually subsided. Hong Yu and Tang Xingye got up from the dirt, shook the dirt on their bodies, and after a glance, Hong Yu shouted, "Is there anyone alive?!" ”

"Yes!" Tang Xingshang pushed away the corpse that was pressing on him and got up from the ground. Just as Tang Xingshang got up, more than a dozen people crawled out of the dirt. …… After counting the number of people, Tang Xingye walked to Hong Yu's side and said, "Brother Yu, all together, there are still twenty-one people on the battlefield." Three of them were seriously injured. Except for Cai Binliang and Xiao Qiang, who were killed, the others were fine. What do we do next?! ”

Hong Yu looked at Tang Xingye and said, "What else can I do?!" Hold on! ”

Tang Xingye asked, "Did you ask the battalion commander for some people?!" ”

Hong Yu said: "If the battalion commander has someone, will he still let the wounded go to the battlefield?!" With that, Hong Yu picked up the gun he had just collected, walked to the edge of the trench, put the gun where he could hook it, and then used a bayonet to pry open the wooden box for the grenade, and began to prepare for battle. ……

On the outskirts of Nanjing, Hong's house.

"In-laws, is there any news?!" Hong Enping, who was sitting in the living room waiting for news, saw Yuan Zhishan who walked in from the outside, and immediately greeted him.

Yuan Zhishan took the teacup that his daughter had received, took a sip of water, and said, "I only found out that Hong Yu and the Tang brothers followed the teaching team to Shanghai." The rest of the news is currently very tightly blocked, and I have already spoken hello to my friends and classmates, and they will notify me as soon as there is news. ”

As soon as Yuan Zhishan's words fell, the mother of the Tang brothers, Tan Mei, clasped her hands together and muttered to herself, "Amitabha! Bodhisattva bless, I hope my two sons and Hong Yuji will come back safely! ”

Yuan Hui hurriedly walked over and persuaded: "Auntie, don't worry!" The three of them will be fine. ”

At seven o'clock in the evening, General Zhang, who had returned to the general headquarters of the 19th Route Army, received a telegram from Tang Guangji again asking for help. After reading the contents of the telegram, General Zhang asked, "How many telegrams are these?!" ”

The confidential staff officer replied, "This is the tenth telegram for help since five o'clock in the afternoon. ”

Jiang Guang Nai and Cai Tingkai, who were busy arranging the next battle plan, heard the words of the confidential staff officer, and they all looked at General Zhang in unison. General Zhang sighed lightly and asked, "Where is the Song Brigade now?!" ”

The confidential staff officer replied: "The last time I contacted the Song brigade, they had already arrived at Luodian. ”

"What?!" General Zhang's brows furrowed. Jiang Guang Nai walked to General Zhang's side and asked, "Brother Wen Bai, what's wrong?!" ”

General Zhang handed the telegram in his hand to Jiang Guangnai. Jiang Guang Nai took the telegram, quickly read the contents of the telegram, and said, "It seems that they are under a lot of pressure there. Otherwise, he wouldn't have complained. ”

"I know that too! But ......" Before General Zhang could finish speaking, the adjutant hurriedly ran to General Zhang with the telegram he had just received. General Zhang saw the adjutant and asked, "What's going on again?!" ”

The adjutant hesitated for a moment and said, "Teaching the corps Tang Guangji to rush electricity!" ”

General Zhang took the telegram and looked at it, his brows immediately furrowed into a Sichuan character, and said: "He asked to blow up the Qiputang pontoon bridge, shrink the troops, and retreat to the second line of defense in Qianjing." ”
