The third part of the Speculators of the Republic of China, the second chapter of the bloody and fire war of resistance, the eighth section of the Jinpu Road Defensive Battle, the southern front-

Shoufu was deeply depressed. \\。 The squadron in front of you is like a spring. Look' can't do it yet. But a cold rebound can make him angry. After the squadron launched a night raid in the town of the Three Realms. In the afternoon of the next day, all lines were evacuated. Gu Shoufu waved his troops and continued to advance towards Mingguang. In Hengshan, he once again encountered the stubborn resistance of the squadron. Two days after a fierce battle. The squadron retreated again. This time, it retreated all the way to Mingguang.

Yu Xuezhong's retreat was due to the roundabout Ninth Division's capture of Sanheji behind the side of Hengshan. The 92nd Division fought hard for three days and failed to stop the attack of the 9th Division. Retreat to Fengyang.

"The Japanese army on the southern front seems to be very extreme." After the battle situation on the front line reached Xuzhou. Li Zongren and Zhuang Jihua frowned almost at the same time. The Japanese army on the southern front had one more division than he had anticipated. Liao's counterattack in Dingyuan did not achieve the desired effect. Only slightly slowed down the offensive of the Japanese army: "Degong." Is it a division drawn from the 23rd Regiment Army. Assigned to Liao's command? ”

Li Zongren lowered his head and thought about it. Xu Zuyi next to his gaze. Xu Zuyi had a plan in his heart. But perennial officialdom. He had long understood the need to hide clumsiness. At this moment, I saw Li Zongren's gaze. He said calmly: "The frontal defense line will withstand the attack of the three divisions of the Japanese army. I'm afraid the two armies can't do it. Unless..."

Speaking of this, he glanced at Li Zongren and Zhuang Jihua. Zhuang Jihua was a little impatient: "My Sensei." How to talk and slur. You're the Chief of Staff. ”

Xu Zu felt bitter in his heart, this deputy commander Sheng. There is no scruple in saying anything. He smiled disapprerovingly: "Judging from Liao's counterattack." The Japanese army was strong. Take mussels as the bottom line. 100,000 Japanese troops. Logistics is closer than close. Counterattacks don't work easily. It is better to let the Japanese army go across the Huai River. Take the river to solve the river as the bottom line. Let the Japanese army go across the Huai River, so that the rear of the Japanese army is stretched. Once our army rebels, it will not be easy to draw troops, so it can only be placed in the flanks and rear. to protect traffic. Such a frontal offensive will inevitably be relaxed. ”

"Yan Mou has a high opinion." Li Ren's expression suddenly relaxed: "I'm also thinking about this." The strength of the 21st Group Army has not been restored. It was absolutely necessary to draw a division from the 23rd Army. But the remaining three divisions were still remarkable. I'm afraid it's not good in mussels. Take the solution of the river as the bottom line. Are you familiar with the 23rd Group Army of the Cultural Revolution, do you think that division is appropriate? ”

"124th Division." Zhuang Ji replied without hesitation. The 124th Division was the main force of Tian Songyao's division. Originally, it was directly under the jurisdiction of Sun Zhen, Deng Xi, Hou Tian, and Song, which were originally one. When Deng Xihou formed the Izukawa army. Tian Songyao handed over this division to him without hesitation. Become the main force of the 41st Army. It was also the first unit in the Sichuan army to change its equipment.

"Good. Then send electricity to Sun Zhen. 124 was placed under the command of the Second Army. Li Ren shook his hand gently.

"Report."

Li Zongren and Zhuang Jihua couldn't help but be stunned, they didn't know what Kai-shek meant by calling at this time? Xu Zu took the telegram. After reading it in a hurry, he said with some confusion: "The chairman of the committee has assigned the 58th Army and the 60th Army to us." ”

Zhuang Jihua was slightly flustered, and then he was overjoyed. He asked for two for an unknown amount of time. But Chiang Kai-shek just didn't let go. Unexpectedly, it was sent to the door at this time. I don't know how Chiang Kai-shek figured it out again. But since it was given. Then you're welcome, of course.

"How long will it take for them to get to Xu?" Li Zongren asked quietly. The actual situation is probably only known to him. After calculating the strength of the Japanese army. He privately asked Chiang Kai-shek for troops. And there are not many troops in the Gui department. Zhuang Hua repeatedly mentioned these two armies. Special Sixty Army. According to Zhuang Jihua. The 60th and 11th armies were trained by others to deal with the Japanese army. So simply, just ask for these two armies. Chiang Kai-shek obtained his cooperation in the matter of Han Fu. During the Kaifeng Conference, it was finally promised to transfer the two armies to the Fifth Theater. Now it's just Chiang Kai-shek's promise.

"Sixty armies in half a month. The 58th Army may have taken a little longer. Xu Zuyi handed the telegram to Li Zongren. Li Zongren took it and saw it and handed it to Zhuang Jihua. Zhuang Jihua understood at a glance. Chiang Kai-shek: This is conditional. It was required that these two armies should be used only for counteroffensives.

Zhuang Jihua was a little depressed. It will take another half a month. I don't know if I can catch up. But something is better than nothing. He sighed softly and asked, "How is the empty side?" When will air support be available? Now it's just their planes in the sky. ”

Zhou Zhirou said that the Air Force has several key mine stations, and it will take some time. Well. About a week. A week later, it's all right. Xu Zu took over the contact of the army and told him. In fact, the Air Force now has one hundred and eighty P0s. Before Hitler closed the arms deal. Bought thirty BF10 from Germany. These thirty BF109s are a bit surprising. Mobilize Zhuang Jihua's partners in Germany. The factory presented twelve new ones. The rest were still in service with the Luftwaffe. That's why I was able to send it back so quickly. In addition to the German-American machine. In accordance with the secret clause of the Sino-Soviet aviation agreement. Soviet Russia sent 60 I-16s to China. Eighty I-15s. The party is discussing the dispatch of volunteer pilots from Soviet Russia to aid China.

Both the aircraft and the pilots are valuable to the squadron. After tasting the sweetness of radar on the battlefield of Songhu. Zhou Zhirou was reluctant to let the plane rise into the air to meet the enemy without radar in any case. It is insisted that the radar station be built before it is put into battle. This made the commanders of the theaters grit their teeth with hatred in their hearts. But I can't help it.

Li Zongren relaxed the bottom line. But Li Pinxian didn't want to do this. He believed that it was entirely possible to take advantage of the favorable shape of the Huainan area. Maximum delay to destroy the Japanese army. So in addition to ordering Deng Xihou to transfer out 1. The rest didn't change.

The 51st Army retreated to Mingguang. In order to suppress the offensive of the 9th Division. The 46th Army moved forward. Fengyang Linhuai Pass was handed over to the eleventh set of troops to guard.

Fan Fu, commander of the 46th Army, was a veteran. Nearly forty years old. At the age of seventeen, he participated in the Xinhai Uprising. He served as the captain of the Zhejiang Army. He was arrested twice during the Second Revolution. Later, he applied for the Baoding Military Academy and became a professional soldier. Before the Northern Expedition, he went to Guangzhou. The 6th Division, which was invested in Tan Yan, served as chief of staff. After Tan Yan's death, his son-in-law Chen Cheng was recruited into the civil engineering department.

A long military career. Fan Fu has a very strong military atmosphere. Despite the fact that the long march was very tiring. He immediately went to the 28th Division to check the pre-battle preparations.

Dong, the commander of the 28th Division, is a graduate of the first phase of Whampoa. However, he was also recommended by Fan Fu. As a student of the first phase of Whampoa. Although he is not as good as Hu Zong, Song Nanxi, Du Ming, and others. But it's pretty good compared to others.

"Jiesheng remembers, the battle must be dug deep. The mountain is not big, the shelling is going to be hidden, and I read the booklet sent by the anticline war zone. Some of the things are nice. "Fan

Look and advise. on a small hill. Many soldiers race against time to build defense. Under the light. The dust is flying. The sound of cannon booming could be heard faintly in the distance. The 92nd Division was struggling to hold back the Japanese troops.

Fan Fu raised his eyes to look at the beautiful sunshine. He was only a little annoyed. How did the rainy season in Jiangnan pass so quickly, if it was like the continuous heavy rain in March and April. The river swelled. The difficulty of the army's attack has undoubtedly increased tenfold.

"The slope of this slope is not very attentive to the Japanese tanks. Lay out some anti-tank mines. That's right. I remember that your division is newly equipped with bazookas, and you should make good use of them. This thing hits tanks one by one. Fan Fu stood in front of a gentle slope. Soldiers are fighting along the gentle slope ridgeline.

"The anti-tank Reb is on the road ahead." The regimental commander in charge of this section pointed to the flat section in front: "It may be destroyed on this slope by the artillery fire before the Japanese attack." ”

Fan Fu nodded, very satisfied with his carefulness, and felt a little helpless in his heart. Fan Fu, who had walked three regiments in one morning, had to investigate each formation in detail. This tube is too thin. worthy of the brothers' call Fan Po.

However, he is still very confident in the 20th Division. He has been the commander of this division for four years. In the past four years, he gradually replaced all the officers of this division with those from Whampoa. He was familiar with every officer of the division. Even a veteran.

"Big stakes. Is the hole dug? ”

Dong Chaoyi, a soldier in his twenties, shouted. The soldier looked thinner. The muscles of his arms are very strong. His name was Ma Dazhu. Veteran of the 28th Division. He has made meritorious contributions in the Great War of the Central Plains.

"Sir." Martha concentrated on reinforcing his anti-artillery holes. Didn't notice Dong. looked up and saw that Dong had already arrived in front of him. Hurriedly stood up and reported: "The humble post is reinforcing the fortifications. ”

"It's already a sergeant." Dong looked at Ma Dazhujing's upper body. Shaking his head slightly: "Why is it still like this." ”

"Hey, hey." Ma Dazhu smiled. Touch the back of your head.

This Ma Da Zhu has made great achievements. But he couldn't read. It was difficult to go any further when it came to the sergeant. Dong didn't like those soldiers who were a little angry. Ma Da Pian has a bit of an appetite for him. Every time I come to this group, I have to find an opportunity to chat with him. That's all for a few sentences. The position of Ma Da Zhu in the regiment is obviously different.

Dong looked at the anti-artillery hole of Ma Dazhu. The wood is solidified. The soil of the week is firm. Unless a heavy artillery shell hits directly. Otherwise, it won't collapse. Mortar shells were of no use to him at all.

This kind of anti-artillery hole was provided in the pamphlet provided by the classmate of his war commander's department. For that old classmate in the War Zone Commander's Department. They didn't have much interaction at school. He was ordinary then. And the other is the pride of the sky. became Huang Xiong early. Before the Bull War, he did not approve of the title. And the Battle of Nanjing completely convinced him.

The War of Resistance has been fought for a year. The 28th Division did not take part in many battles. They have been stationed in Shaanxi. Preparedness**. It was not until the beginning of the year that he was transferred to Tongguan. Two skirmishes were fought at Tongguan. It was only in April this year that he was transferred to the 5th theater of operations. There were not many tests of the Japanese army. Pamphlets handed out by the war zone. He has studied it carefully. He clearly felt that it was the work of his classmate. When he was teaching the regiment, it was rumored that he would take people back to the battlefield after every battle. Re-study the summary. Take a look at the improvements in tactics that have those values.

Dong is well aware of the value. So not only do you see it yourself. A copy was also given to every officer in the division. Ask them to study it carefully. As a cadre of the civil engineering department. Chen Cheng's attention to the 28th Division was no less than that of the 18th Army and the 11th Division. Bazooka that all ministries want. Equip them first. Although each regiment was equipped with only three. But as long as it is used well. These three bazookas can also make a big difference.

The brothers of the 92nd Division bought a day for them. When night falls. Zhou Guanglie withdrew from the front with the remaining thousands of people. Looking at these scarred. Exhausted brother. The soldiers of the 28th Division, who were still busy, couldn't help but stop what they were doing. He stared at them blankly.

The officers of the 28th Division took the opportunity to begin to boost morale: "Brothers. The brothers of the 92nd Division held back for four days. We can't make them worse. Come on. Fortify the fortifications. We're going to keep the little devils out for at least five days. ”

"Brethren. Tomorrow will be us. Don't be a seed. Let the brothers of the ninety-second division laugh. ”。 …

The soldier came to his senses. Hurry up and have a pickaxe. These things were collected from nearby farms. By midnight. The detachment that went out to reconnoiter brought back the news. The Japanese advance rested three miles away.

The formation soon fell silent. There are more veterans in the 28th Division. All clear pre-war rest. The importance of reserving physical strength. A long night. The atmosphere in the formation was very depressing. Nervous.

The soldiers lay in the trenches in twos and threes. The mountain breeze is gentle. Brings a touch of coolness. Blew dry the soldier's body. but it could not blow away the heavy stone of their hearts.

I don't know who is quietly snoring. In the darkness, Qin's minor tune came. The vicissitudes of life are majestic and heavy. Freedom to roam in = the wilderness.

The morning star quietly rises in the sky. A light mist rises in the woods. The air is fresh. Pure. The sky blooms blue. A large quiet drop of a needle can be heard. The birds that used to be in the mountains and fields have quietly disappeared.

The sun is shining. The air is oppressive. Most of the men had retreated to the trenches fifty meters away. The remaining class of brothers peered out from the trenches.

"Whoosh". A piercing screech pierced the silence of the early morning. Dull burst. Some of the drunken soldiers are brought back to the real world.

"Shelling." "Anti-artillery."

With shouts. The few people in the array immediately disappeared. Strings of shells rained down on the formation. The fury smoke and fire covered out the array. Ma Dazhu hid in the anti-artillery hole. Cover your ears with your hands. The body is curled as much as possible. This anti-artillery hole is the anti-artillery hole that Dong saw.

Ma Dazhu felt like a boat in the wind and waves. It could capsize at any time. He prayed silently in his heart. Don't let that damn shell smash.

The shelling did not last long. But it's only half an hour. It's like a century.

The cannon fire stopped. Ma Da pile drilled out to prevent artillery movement. Blow the whistle in your mouth. A living soldier emerges from a mound of dirt. Ma Dazhu swept his eyes. Three less. His heart suddenly relaxed. This means that his squad has been reduced by only three people. He quickly ran along the war. As he ran, he shouted: "Prepare for battle." ”
