When everyone present heard Hong Yu's words, they all lowered their heads in unison. Hong Yu looked at his subordinates sitting in front of him, bowing his head and saying nothing, sighed deeply, and continued: "My original idea was to use the geographical location of the copper drum bag to fight for the Japanese army that came to attack, but according to the actual situation, I had to make a new adjustment. This time, we're going to kill a lot of the devil's living force here. Then look for opportunities to break through. But don't get me wrong, my breakthrough means that I can't go out of Jiugong Mountain, and fight guerrilla warfare with devils in the mountains. ”

Gao Ming said thoughtfully: "Regiment Commander, no matter how we fight, our weapons and ammunition are enough. But there's not enough food! I just checked and we only have enough food to feed us for a week. If you save a little, you can barely support ten days. If the battle is not resolved in ten days, our fighters will starve. That's a big problem! ”

"That's a big problem!" Hong Yu nodded slightly, and his brows furrowed unconsciously. After about seven or eight minutes, Hong Yu came back to his senses and said to the high-speed rail: "Tiezi, while the devil has not come yet, you take someone to hunt some prey and come back." ”

Gao Tie was stunned and responded: "Yes!" I'll be there right away! With that, Gao Tie grabbed the gun that was placed on the side, stood up, and left with the soldiers of the guard company.

The sky gradually darkened, and snowflakes slowly drifted in the sky. Under the light of the bonfire, the independent regimental position of the copper bulge is like daylight. After dinner, Hong Yu walked to the front of the position, overlooking the front of the position, and unconsciously started to be stunned.

Yuan Hui walked to Hong Yu's side with a white cloak and draped it over his shoulders. Hong Yu came back to his senses, turned his head to look around, and saw Yuan Hui standing on the side, with a faint smile on his face, he reached out and grabbed the cloak on his shoulder, and asked, "It's windy here, why are you here?!" ”

Yuan Hui said: "I saw you standing here alone, so come and have a look." ”

Hong Yu said: "This is the calm before the war. Let's enjoy the tranquility! ”

"Captain!" As soon as Hong Yu's words fell, the high-speed train came to Hong Yu's side. Hong Yu asked, "Are you back?!" How's the harvest?! ”

The high-speed rail replied: "We are lucky. Shot six wild boars, and some pheasants. In addition, we found traces of devils in Area Seven. ”

"What?!" Hong Yu was stunned, walked quickly to the position near Area 7, took out his binoculars, and looked at the front of the position. Soon, the devils who were setting up a temporary camp entered Hong Yu's field of vision. Looking at the devil, Hong Yu asked, "How many of them are there?!" ”

High-speed rail replied: "I took people to observe their neighborhood for a while. Their highest rank is Nakasa, and I think it should be a wing. ”

Hong Yu put away the binoculars and said, "It seems that the little devils will attack us early tomorrow morning." ”

"Commander, what are we going to do?!" High-speed rail asked.

Hong Yu thought about it, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and said with a smile: "Since the 'guests' are here, of course we have to welcome them well." ”

When Gao Tie heard Hong Yu's words, a puzzled expression appeared on his face. Yuan Hui, who was staying on the side, asked with a smile, "What the hell are you doing again?!" ”

Hong Yu said: "You'll know in a while!" ”

"Captain!" As soon as Hong Yu's words fell, the Tang brothers and Gao Ming walked over. Hong Yu asked with a smile: "The devil has arrived, you also know, right?!" Seeing that the three of them nodded in unison, Hong Yu then asked, "Xingye, can the heavy mortars in the warehouse hit the devils there?!" As he spoke, Hong Yu handed the telescope in his hand to Tang Xingye.

Tang Xingye took the telescope and looked in the direction pointed by Hong Yu, then visually measured the distance and said, "It can be hit completely." ”

"Good!" Hong Yu raised his wrist and looked at the time on his watch, and then said, "It's 8:50 p.m., I'll give you thirty minutes to prepare." Thirty minutes later, twenty rounds per cannon were fired at the devils. ”

"Yes!" Tang Xingye handed over the telescope to Hong Yu and turned to leave.

After Tang Xingye left, Hong Yu then ordered: "High-speed rail, you take someone to deal with the prey brought back, I'm afraid we won't have time tomorrow." ”

"Yes!" The high-speed rail answered and left in a hurry. Seeing the high-speed train leave, Gao Ming and Tang Xingshang looked at Hong Yu in unison.

Hong Yu said: "Gao Ming, your second battalion immediately entered the tunnel dug by sight, and after dawn tomorrow, you will enter the Beacon Hill position to cut off the retreat of the Japanese army." ”

"Yes!" Gao Ming replied and asked, "Commander, when are we going to receive it?!" ”

Hong Yu said: "If you see three red flares rising in the sky, then it means that our side has been attacked by little devils. You evacuate with troop cameras. If you see three green flares, it means that we have defeated the devils here, and you will have to block the retreat of the little devils at all costs! Saying that, Hong Yu looked at Tang Xingshang.

Tang Xingshang seemed to have guessed that Hong Yu would assign him a task, and said with a wry smile: "Regiment leader, if there is any task, you can give the order directly!" ”

Hong Yu said: "You take the troops to the windmill mouth." Hide up there. If you see three red flares, you retreat with your troops. If you see three green flares. Your three battalions must cripple or completely annihilate the retreating devils. For other combat missions, I don't limit the two of you too much, you can fight as much as you want. There is only one, the living force that kills and injures devils to the best of your ability. At the same time, it is necessary to reduce unnecessary casualties among the soldiers. ”

"Yes!" Tang Xingshang and Gao Ming responded in unison and turned to leave.

Seeing the figures of the two gradually disappear into the vast snow, Yuan Hui asked, "What is the task of our female soldiers?!" ”

Hong Yu turned his head to look at Yuan Hui and said, "Your female soldier company and guard company will serve as the reserve of the main position of Tonggubao. Go back and tell the women that this is going to be a bad fight. There's a good chance they'll all die here. ”

Yuan Hui said: "You don't have to worry about this. I've already done their ideological work. ”

Half an hour passed in a blink of an eye, and when Gao Ming led the troops into the tunnel, the rumbling cannon sounded. Shells from heavy mortars fell in the devil's barracks. In the blink of an eye, the entire military camp was surrounded by a sea of fire. A deafening scream broke the silence of the night.

Hong Yu and Yuan Hui, who were standing in the trenches, looked at the devil camp not far away from the binoculars, and both of them had bright smiles on their faces. Yuan Hui said: "After a cannonball, according to the temperament of the little devils, they will definitely not give up." They will definitely come to take revenge on us. ”

Hong Yu said: "No matter how the little devil retaliates against us. I'll take it all. But I don't think the little devil will take revenge on us tonight. Because they don't have the ability! ”……

"Report to Your Excellency Osa, our vanguard has been attacked by the artillery fire of the man, and the troops have suffered heavy casualties, Uchida Nakasa requests tactical guidance!" The attendant handed the telegram he had just received to the commander of the 103rd Wing, Masao Shimizu. Shimizu Masao took the telegram at a glance, quickly read the contents of the telegram, and his brows suddenly furrowed.

The captain of the Matsumoto Brigade, Matsumoto Koji Shaosa, who was standing on the side, saw that there was something wrong with Masao Shimizu's expression, and said: "Your Excellency, during the day, the Air Force reported that they bombed the position of that person, and the person suffered heavy casualties. Could it be that the Air Force is making false reports of its military exploits?! ”

"False report of war exploits?!" Shimizu Masao's brow furrowed tightly. Koji Matsumoto continued: "It is not unheard of for the Air Force to falsely report its military exploits. If they really falsely reported their exploits, then it is very likely that the support of the copper bulge bag was not damaged, and it is reasonable for them to carry out a sneak attack on our vanguard troops. ”

"Roar!" Shimizu Masao nodded slightly, and said to the attendant on the side: "Immediately send a telegram to General Takayuki Uchida, and ask him to find out whether the air force is bombing copper bulges!" In addition, the telegram just sent by Reichiro Uchida and Nakasa was also forwarded to General Takayuki Uchida! ”

"Hey!" The squire answered, turned and left.

Masao Shimizu continued, "Matsumoto-kun, it seems that we can't rest tonight!" Order the troops, speed up the march. Be sure to arrive at your location by 12 a.m.! ”

"Hey!" Koji Matsumoto answered, asked the herald to convey the order, and left with Masao Shimizu.

At the same time, after being hit by a shell, Reichiro Uchida, who escaped death, fled into the woods behind the camp with the remnants of his troops.

After regrouping, Kotaro Nomura walked up to Ryoichiro Uchida and said, "Uchida-kun, I just counted. With the addition of the wounded, we now have only one and a half brigades left. Ando-kun also shattered. It is estimated that Ando-kun's body is still in the camp. ”

Uchida Lingichiro said lightly: "We were already very careful when we came, but we still didn't avoid that person. Saying that, Uchida Reichiro showed a puzzled expression on his face, and said: "During the day, the air force reported that they had destroyed the position of the branch of Tonggubao, but why, the artillery position of the branch and the person is still there. ”

Kotaro Nomura smiled bitterly: "The Air Force has done it not once or twice to falsely report its military exploits. Not bad this time. It seems that if we want to eliminate the branch of the copper bulge, I am afraid that it will be impossible without paying some price! ”

Reichiro Uchida said: "It was a heavy mortar that just attacked our camp. And judging by the sound, the man was equipped with at least one artillery squadron. The man has a good place to go. When we attack tomorrow, if we want to reduce casualties, we must first get rid of their artillery positions. But for us, the fact that the artillery was not destroyed is a great blessing in disguise! ”
