When Qiao Anbang hurriedly returned to the Longshan barracks from the airport with Liang Jiahan, Xie Jinyuan, and others, the entire Longshan barracks was already boiling, and the officers and men of the various divisions who were training began to assemble one after another after receiving orders.

A large number of weapons, ammunition, light and heavy artillery were pulled out of the warehouses and distributed to the regiments as quickly as possible, and the tank armored brigades trained outside were also ordered to rush back.

After more than a month of training, the armored troops of the tank armored brigade have initially mastered the basic operation of the No. 4 tank, and at least they can start it, but there is still a blank in tactical training and coordinated operations.

Anyway, the No. 4 tank is absolutely invincible in China now, and the devil's small artillery and those thin-skinned tanks of various models such as the 95-type and ** type cannot pose a threat to it, as for those large-caliber heavy artillery machines with poor power, it is obviously impossible to use them for the opponent's strong fan power.

In addition, what can really pose a threat to the No. 4 tank is the bomber group of the army, but the air-to-ground bombing, especially the bombing of targets that can move quickly, the hit rate can be imagined, not to mention that each division is equipped with air defense units, and the two armored fighting vehicles of the third regiment of the armored tank brigade and a mobile battalion of 88 anti-aircraft guns also have strong air defense capabilities.

So even if the tank armored troops have not completed their training, they can still provide fire support and cover for the infantry, as long as the infantry is in place, the tank armored brigade is definitely a nightmare for the devil's ground troops.

After Qiao Anbang returned to the barracks, most of the officers and men had already assembled, and nearly 200 tanks and combat vehicles of the tank armored brigade were lined up and waiting for them.

Without a pause, Qiao Anbang immediately turned around and walked towards his headquarters, this time he led the army to participate in the war in a short period of time, I am afraid that he will not be able to come back in a short time, and if the battle of Xuzhou is lost, then it will be dangerous to save the pheasant and the base area of [***], and it is possible to directly face the soldiers of Yue Kou at any time.

Therefore, Qiao Anbang plans to let Qiao Anguo stay and continue to recruit and expand the army to train the troops, so as to enhance the combat power of saving [***].

When Qiao Anbang walked into the headquarters, Qiao Anguo had been waiting in the headquarters for a long time, and when he saw Qiao Anbang, Qiao Anguo immediately got up and said, "Anbang, what's the matter?" Why did you suddenly order the troops to be pulled out? ”

"Big brother, Deputy Head Wang Baoshan hurried to ask for help just now, Brother Chu's department was surrounded by devils in Fengyang, and now the situation is extremely urgent, I decided to send troops to reinforce them immediately!" Joan Bang replied.

"What, the army has already reached Fengyang?" Qiao Anguo was taken aback, he must know that the straight-line distance between Pheasant and Ji and Fengyang is less than three hundred miles, and according to the progress, it will not be long before the army can cross the Huai River and advance the battlefield to the area of Pheasant and Ji.

"Yes, now that tens of thousands of troops have advanced to the Huainan line, Huaibei is a horse and a flat river, if the Huaihe River is lost, Huaibei will have no danger to defend, the consequences are unimaginable, and it will directly lead to the failure of the battle of Xuzhou. Therefore, no matter what, we must block the devil south of the Huai River, so we must send troops to save [***] in public and private. Qiao Anbang nodded earnestly.

"Well, saving soldiers is like fighting fire, I will lead the tank armored brigade to set off first, and a rapid march will be able to reach Fengyang in five hours at most." Qiao Anguo also nodded in agreement and said to Qiao Anbang.

"No, big brother, you can't go to Huainan this time, you have more important things to do." Qiao Anbang shook his head and said.

"What's more important, what's it?" Qiao Anguo asked suspiciously.

"Big brother, now that the front line of resistance is getting closer and closer to our base area, in order to be able to calmly deal with the severe situation that may occur in the future, it is time for us to take precautions, after I lead the troops to set off, the Longshan military camp and the entire Pheasant and Ji will be handed over to you, and the task you leave behind is to continue to expand the army, and at the same time be responsible for training new troops, which is related to the safety of our base area in the future, so big brother, you must not shirk." Jo Anbang explained.

Without waiting for Qiao Anguo to answer, Qiao Anbang said again: "Also, if it is possible, eldest brother, you must ask our father to come forward to mobilize people from near and far, call on them to help us build roads, and pay the wages, as long as we have roads extending in all directions, it will be much more convenient to mobilize troops and logistics supplies in the future!" ”

Qiao Anguo pondered for a while and nodded: "Well, I'll stay, but Anbang, you must pay attention to safety when you go to the front line alone, you have to take care of your eldest brother when you are not by your side, don't be too impulsive in case of trouble, and be calm in everything." ”

"Hmmm! Don't worry, big brother. Qiao Anbang nodded, and then said: "Big brother, this time I will transfer an infantry regiment from the Second Division to you, and the safety of the base area and arsenal will be handed over to you." ”

Qiao Anguo patted his chest confidently and said: "You just put 10,000 hearts, with me, the base and arsenal are absolutely foolproof." ”

While the two were talking, Yali came over from the confidential room next to her, saluted Qiao Anbang and whispered, "Headquarters, the troops are about to be launched, what about the two female students?" I'm afraid it will be a lot of inconvenience if you take them on the expedition. ”

Qiao Anbang pondered for a moment, and said coldly: "Since this is the case, immediately arrest them all, these two people are definitely not good people, first lock me up and keep them under strict supervision, and then interrogate them properly when I come back." ”

"Anbang, who are they?" Qiao Anguo didn't know about this all along, and asked in surprise.

"Big brother, you don't know, I suspect that they are spies sent by themselves or the military commanders." Qiao Anbang said this, turned to Liang Jiahan behind him and ordered: "Jiahan, you immediately take someone to arrest those two people." ”

"Yes!" Liang Jiahan immediately stepped forward to respond, and then turned around and took the order.

After leaving the headquarters, Liang Jiahan took four guard soldiers and went straight to the confidential room next to the headquarters, and saw Liang Jiahan and the four soldiers rushing in violently, and the people in the confidential room were all shocked and looked at them suspiciously.

Yunzi Kawashima and Yunzi Nanzao, who were sorting out the documents on the side, took two steps back very vigilantly, the two of them were still frustrated just now that they didn't have the opportunity to get close to Qiao Anbang these days, seeing Liang Jiahan's unkind eyes, the two glanced at each other, Nanzao Yunzi nodded, and just wanted to step forward to ask what was going on.

saw Liang Jiahanyu waving her hand and shouted: "Arrest them!" ”

"Yes!" The four wolf-like warriors responded in unison, striding forward to arrest people, Kawashima Yoshiko and Nanzao Yunzi's faces changed drastically, and just wanted to reach out and pull out their guns, Liang Jiahan, who had been staring at them for a long time, threw them suddenly with both hands, and the two flying knives tied with red cloth accurately hit the arms of the two.

The four guards took the opportunity to step forward and arrest the two of them, ignoring the severe pain in their arms, Kawashima Yoshiko pretended to be aggrieved and protested: "Why did you arrest us, what mistakes did we make, and why did you arrest us." ”

"Hmph, just because you're spies!" Liang Jiahan snorted coldly and waved his hand disdainfully and ordered: "Take it away!" ”

When the four fighters escorted them past Liang Jiahan, Yoshiko Kawashima glared at Liang Jiahan coldly.

"Let's go!" One of the warriors at the head shouted angrily and strode out with the two of them

After solving the two of Yoshiko Kawashima and Yunko Nanzo, Qiao Anbang took the communications battalion, and the guard regiment took the lead in setting off with the tank armored brigade, and then rescued the first, second, and third divisions, and more than 30,000 people also set off one after another.

Nearly 2,000 military trucks and hundreds of artillery tractors of various types drove out of the Longshan barracks one after another and marched along the highway toward Fengyang.

Although due to the urgency of the situation, the oath-taking meeting was not held for the rescue of [***] to go out to the Anti-Japanese War, but a large number of local people and squires rushed to see off the labor army when they heard the news.

Many enthusiastic young people who had just participated in the meeting were moved by this scene, and they were determined to go to the front line and fight bravely to kill the enemy in order to repay the country and the people.

Because there were civilians to see them off along the way, the march of the three main infantry divisions slowed down.

Two hours later, Qiao Anbang led a vanguard regiment composed of a guard regiment, a communications battalion, and a tank armored brigade past Mengcheng and headed straight for Huaiyuan, an important town in Huaibei

At the same time, north of Fengyang, Fengyang Gorge, Chu Jingming's regiment position.

Chu Jingming, accompanied by several guards, was inspecting the position, and at this time Chu Jingming's regiment had already fought a bloody battle with the devils for a day and a night, and the whole regiment had been sharply reduced from more than 1,500 people before the war to less than 500 people, and most of the officers and men were wounded.

Looking at the corpses of fallen soldiers everywhere, Chu Jingming, a man with iron bones, couldn't help but shed two lines of hot tears in his bloodshot eyes.

These are the children of the hometown, they followed themselves in the hometown of the people to see off the scenery of the scenery, but now there is no chance to go back, although as a soldier horse leather shroud, the battlefield died as a destination, but people are not early wood, who can be ruthless? Thinking that after these soldiers sacrificed, their wives and children and parents must be leaning on the door and looking forward to it, Chu Jingming couldn't help but feel like a knife.

"Tuanza! The devil has just captured Tianma Peak, and the [***] 41st regiment on the opposite side is finished. Chu Jingming was sad, and Xie Shan, the commander of the first battalion, greeted him and reported.

The 41st Regiment stationed at Tianma Peak was also left behind by the 11th Group Army, if it weren't for them in Tianma Peak and Chu Jingming's headquarters to show a corner and disperse the devil's troops, Chu Jingming's regiment would have been wiped out.

Listening to the annihilation of the 41st Regiment on the opposite side, Chu Jingming looked sad and took the lead in saluting Tianma Peak with a standard military salute, and said in a deep voice: "Good look, worthy of being my Chinese man, they are all good." ”

"Tuanza, the devil is going to attack again." At this moment, a second lieutenant officer with gauze wrapped around his head hurriedly ran over and reported loudly.

Chu Jingming changed color slightly when he heard this, and then picked up a Hanyang-made rifle with a bayonet on the ground, looked at the boiling water behind him, and suddenly turned his head and said sharply: "Brothers, the time for a decisive battle has come!" Pick up your weapons and fight for the dignity of my Han family's boys, and fight for the dignity of the Chinese people! For the sake of the fathers and fellow villagers in my hometown, and for the sake of our dead comrades-in-arms, let's fight with the little devils to the end today! ”

"Fight to the end!"

"Fight to the end!"

"Fight to the end!"

More than 500 soldiers responded with three shouts, the momentum shook the sky, the sacrifice of their comrades, the death of the robes, they could only fight with their backs to the end of the battle!
