Hu Fei knocked out Zheng Ying, who was in the way, and withdrew from the fortifications with the soldiers. As for the unlucky Battalion Commander Zheng, he was carried out by two soldiers in turn. The troops retreated all the way to the gentle slope, and the devil's offensive really weakened.

In fact, it wasn't that Kijima was willing to stop, and he could drive Hu Fei and the raiders off the cliff if he took one step further. Kijima Osa is not really a fool, and he doesn't want to leave a threat behind him. However, just when it was only one step away from victory, the 51st Division of the National Army in front suddenly intensified its attack! General Aoki ordered the captain of the Kijima Wing to immediately lead his troops back to meet the main force of the national army!

Hey! The one who made Kijima Kao angry almost didn't commit a cerebral thrombosis on the spot. As for disobeying the order and resolutely not going back, he didn't dare to do it, that was a privilege only at the level of division commander, and he was too young as a wing commander to disobey military orders.

Well, that's all gossip. After receiving the order from the brigade commander, Wing Commander Kijima immediately gathered his troops and returned to the front mountain without stopping. Wang Yaowu commanded the 51st Division to fight fiercely, and the 51st Division attacked the mountain when Mujima Jiaxiong came back one step later!

As soon as Wing Commander Kijima returned, he took his main brigade into battle, and at the cost of several hundred casualties, he finally stopped the attack of the 51st Division. After the battle was over for the time being, Wing Commander Kijima met with the commander of Aoki Seiichi Brigade, and the two sat facing each other while making a dumbfounded face.

Airborne officers and airborne soldiers have also been used, and airborne supplies and equipment have also been given. If you want reinforcements, General Okamura has sent the 27th Division and the 101st Division. As for the fact that they have not yet arrived, they have encountered the resistance of the Chinese army, and the two divisions are also trying their best to break through the interception and rush to this side. What else can I do next? How can the northward detachment get out of the immediate predicament?

During the entire Battle of Wuhan, the Japanese army won victories in all aspects, and among the hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops, only the 106th Division seemed to be unlucky. Where is Xue Yue's 100,000 army going? It was in Wanjialing that the 106th Division was blocked.

Will Okamura Ninji watch the Matsuura Division being annihilated? Of course not, Commander Okamura will definitely send a steady stream of reinforcements to relieve the siege of the 106th Division, there is no doubt about it!

Seiichi Aoki and Kao Kijima consulted and discussed, and finally found the only solution: stick to it! As long as you can hold on to the same place, as long as you can not be completely wiped out by the Chinese army, reinforcements will always come!

In order to hold out until reinforcements arrived, General Aoki ordered Kijima Daisa to strengthen the fortifications that had been repaired, and at the same time, the commander of the Aoki Brigade sent a telegram to Commander Okamura, asking for additional reinforcements, airdropping supplies, and air forces to coordinate operations. In short, he wants what the Japanese army wants, and if he doesn't give it, don't say it first, anyway, don't want it in vain!

After doing this, Aoki Seiichi still felt unsafe, and called his closest combat staff officer, Fujii Nosuke, over to give a secret order, Fujii Shaosa nodded solemnly and turned around.

After the troops retreated to the gentle slope above the cliff, Hu Fei went to visit Zhang Lingfu. Brigade Commander Zhang is in a lot better spirits now, but his leg injury is too serious, and he still can't get up from lying on a stretcher.

When the two met, Hu Fei didn't hide it, and reported to Zhang Lingfu what happened in the past two days one by one, including the fact that he took the initiative to abandon his position and retreat. Zhang Lingfu listened quietly, and did not interrupt Hu Fei in the middle.

After the report was over, Zhang Lingfu said to Hu Fei with a normal expression: "Commander Hu, you should still pay attention to the opinions of the officers. If someone has a different opinion about your withdrawal before the battle, you should explain the pros and cons to them so that they can see what is at stake. This also contributes to the stability of the team. ”

It must be Camp Commander Zheng who has come to sue! Hu Fei knew what was going on, since Zhang Lingfu didn't name anyone, he was happy to pretend to be confused.

Regarding this question, Zhang Lingfu only stopped at the point, and then asked Hu Fei what his next plan was. Hu Fei said that he would raid again at night, and the positions lost during the day would be recaptured tonight! At the same time, Hu Fei asked Zhang Lingfu to give an order to transfer another 500 troops from the bottom of the cliff. You have to have someone to fight a night raid if there is no one, what do you do to fight a night raid?

Naturally, Zhang Lingfu would not object to such a reasonable request. Lying on the stretcher, he wrote an order, and ordered the troops under the cliff to send another 500 people according to Hu Fei's request.

"It's all over the world, but I'm injured and can't go to the battlefield with you at this point in the middle of the battle, hey! Thanks to you this time. Don't worry, when this battle is over, I will definitely protect you to Commander-in-Chief Xue! Zhang Lingfu took Hu Fei's hand with a sincere expression.

Hu Fei didn't take this kind of assurance very seriously, but since the words were spoken, he still had to express his gratitude verbally, "It's all thanks to Brigade Commander Zhong Lin, and Hu Fei is grateful." ”

The two of them politely said a few more words to Hu Fei to say goodbye, now that time is pressing, he must do his best to get the people under the mountain up. Climbing a cliff is not an easy task, and it can take hundreds of people to climb up from the bottom of the cliff for hours. If he doesn't hurry up, when the sky is dawn, how can he fight a night raid?

If you want to transfer the people from the mountain, someone has to take Zhang Lingfu's order to climb down the cliff first, bring the order down, and then bring the troops down the mountain to come up. This person who climbs down the cliff is very important, he must have outstanding skills and a sharp mind, and preferably he is familiar with the people below.

Last time, Zhang Lingfu designated a person, and that person had already been martyred this morning, and this time it was Hu Fei's turn to do the work of designating people. It is said that he should ask Battalion Commander Zheng's opinion, and he is the one from the 74th Army. However, Hu Fei gave Camp Commander Zheng that time in the afternoon, and now he is embarrassed to discuss things with others again.

In his heart, he counted the people he was familiar with one by one, and Hu Fei suddenly found that he really couldn't find a person who could be absolutely trusted in the 153rd Brigade!

In the end, Hu Fei had no choice but to let Yuan Fang go. Yuan Fang's martial arts skills are not to be said, and climbing down the cliff along the rope is absolutely foolproof. Especially Yuan Fang, this guy is steady, and he is not reckless in doing things, which is the most commendable. It is particularly important to move troops down the mountain, especially to the 74th Army, which is not very familiar, and to be steady.

It's not bad, as soon as Hu Fei told him about the situation, Yuan Fang agreed in one bite. After explaining the precautions, Hu Fei personally sent Yuan Fang to the edge of the cliff. Seeing Yuan Fang's figure disappear from the cliff, Hu Fei asked Mulati to take twenty people to guard the edge of the cliff, and report as soon as someone below came up.
