Chapter 590: Precarious
Zhao Yongfu on the side of Bagua Island has not eaten and closed his eyes for two days and two nights, and the little devil fleet actually launched a fierce attack on Bagua Island at night, when rows of ship artillery shells roared and smashed into the beach of Bagua Island, Zhao Yongfu understood that the little devil on the opposite side was going to play with his life!
Zhao Yongfu held on to his spirit, tried not to fall asleep, and kept looking at the map and simple sand table in the command post, and the staff officers around him kept issuing orders to the commanders on the position on the phone, shouting noisily, and a few of them even scolded, it can be seen that the front-line brothers are not fighting well, and the positions everywhere are in an emergency, and reinforcements are needed!
But at this moment, Zhao Yongfu did not have any extra brothers in his hands to reinforce the positions in various places, and the little devils who came to attack were like crazy, attacking the tidal flats of Bagua Island from all directions, fortunately, Zhao Yongfu took the initiative in time, and the brothers who were familiar with the water drove the boat around to the landing fleet of the devils, and forced back the joint attack launched by the devils and the devil's fleet!
With a little opportunity to catch his breath, Zhao Yongfu received an order from Han Fei that he must stay here for more than two days, Zhao Yongfu couldn't hold back anymore and complained: "Old Han, do you think I have a lot of people here?" With so many devil ships coming towards me, how long can I hold back here? ”
After complaining, Zhao Yongfu found that it was actually useless, but those staff officers under him looked at him, so he hurriedly beckoned, asked one of the staff officers to come over, and said to him: "Order down immediately, let the battalion commanders below report the losses of their respective troops, and I will send a telegram to Lao Han to explain the situation here!" ”
Soon, the battle damage below was reported, Zhao Yongfu almost fainted when he saw it, now there are only more than 800 brothers who can fight with guns on the side of Baguazhou, and after two days and two nights, the entire independent division reinforcement regiment left nearly 2,000 troops on the side of Baguazhou is now only one-third, and the battle loss rate is nearly seventy percent.
But it seems that it is absolutely impossible to withdraw this time to replenish and recuperate, the waters around Bagua Continent are full of large warships of the devil's fleet, and there are infantry of the devils on the island everywhere rushing up towards the tidal flats on this side, even if they want to retreat, then they have to repel the siege of these devils, and Han Fei came down again and ordered him to continue to hold on here for more than two days, this is a personal life!
But Zhao Yongfu is not an idle person, although he is full of complaints, but there are still a lot of ideas, he scolds and scolds, and his mind is still turning how to use the only remaining eight hundred warriors to resist the devil here for more than two days, of course, he also knows that it must be reasonable for Han Fei to ask him to hold on to the Baguazhou for another two days, because this is the key position to guard the Yangtze River waterway in the north of Nanjing, if it falls into the hands of the devil, then the Chinese military and civilians in Nanjing will be completely surrounded by the devil, and then the devil can do what he wants. The massacre of the devils in Nanjing that Han Fei talked about is estimated to be staged!
In fact, Zhao Yongfu didn't know that on the eve of the devil's attack on Nanjing City, these beasts had already started a massacre on the outskirts of Nanjing, and several villages were completely slaughtered by the devil soldiers, and not a single living mouth was left.
But the next situation made Zhao Yongfu a little confused, the devil fleet that had been desperately attacking towards Bagua Continent suddenly stopped attacking and began to retreat to the back, Zhao Yongfu thought that this was a trick of the devil, and hurriedly ordered those water squad ships sent out to withdraw immediately, so as not to fall for the devil's trick!
In fact, this is the Nakajima devil is impatient, originally he thought that with the support of the Third Fleet's naval artillery fire, he could quickly take the Bagua Continent in the center of the Yangtze River, but after two days and two nights, not only did he not take a tidal flat, but lost a lot of gunboats and transport ships, and even his own flagship was almost attacked by the Chinese army fleet, plus just now the news that Gu Shoufu's division has all taken the positions in the south of the city Zhonghua Gate and Yuhuatai and other places, and began to march into the city of Nanjing, Nakajima Devil is a little unable to sit still, It was decided to suspend the attack on Baguazhou and other places first, and instead concentrate on concentrating forces and start a fierce attack on Cangbomen and other positions!
The battle here in Cangbo Gate was also quite fierce, one and a half divisions of the Guangdong Army and two divisions of the Gui Army stationed in the position fought for two days, almost all of them were wiped out, although there were Liu Ruye and Haizi under Han Fei to help these special forces, but they were still unable to save the situation, and in the middle of the night, almost all the peripheral positions outside Cangbo Gate were taken down by the devils, and only a wall full of craters was still in the hands of the Chinese soldiers!
After receiving Han Fei's order, Liu Ruye and Haizi quickly withdrew from the Cangbo Gate position, the situation here became more and more dangerous, plus Commander Tang issued an order to evacuate the whole line, and the Yue Army and Gui Army brothers who stayed on the city wall decided to evacuate from Cangbo Gate!
Seeing Liu Ruye and Haizi who had retreated, Chen Wan'er was shocked and asked them: "If the Cangbo Gate is lost, the Jinling Women's University will definitely fall into the hands of devils, and the wharf here will not be guaranteed, and there are still so many ordinary people and retreating troops who want to withdraw across the river, what should I do?" ”
Liu Ruye saw Chen Wan'er's eyebrows tightened, and patted her chest and said: "Major Chen, don't worry, with me and Haizi here, you won't be afraid of the devils coming here, you can continue to evacuate the people." ”
As soon as Haizi heard that Liu Ruye was about to brag again, he hurriedly reminded him: "Chief Han wants us not to fight devils here, there are so many devils, and there are no fortifications and bunkers near here, how can you fight against so many devils?" ”
As soon as Liu Ruye heard that Haizi poured cold water on his head, and it was still in front of Chen Wan'er, she was a little unhappy: "If you want me to say that Chief Han is also cowardly, let us withdraw from Cangbomen so early, if we resist over there, I think it will still be able to support it for a few days." ”
As soon as Haizi heard this, he hurriedly said-for-tat: "Lao Liu, it's not right for you to say this, how has the fight been on the Cangbomen side in the past two days?" Don't you know? The corpses of the brothers who died in our army are piled up all over the position, so many men and horses of the Yue army and the Gui army are almost exhausted, and they can hold for two more days, I think you are talking nonsense, right? ”
