On the side of the Jiangyin Fort, more than 200 brothers carefully selected from the independent division formed an advance team to cross the river, and Han Fei also sent more than 20 brothers from the spy company to follow them, led by Liu Ruye, first taking advantage of the fact that the devils had not completely blocked the waters of the Yangtze River, they crossed the river first, controlled Nantong and Taizhou on the banks of the river, and laid a good way to retreat from Jiangyin in the future.

Han Fei once again persuaded the division commander to follow these advance teams across the river, but the division commander was unmoved and insisted: "I won't go, I can't go, I want to live and die with the fort, do you want me to bear the infamy?" ”

"Shizuo, you have done your best, there are only more than 1,000 horses left in a whole division, and you have been guarding the Jiangyin Fort for so many days, you have done your best, compared to those who lost their armor and fled in Shanghai, I don't know how many times better, this is not to escape, but to retreat, but to better fight the devil!" Han Fei's voice was also a little louder. He didn't understand why the division commander was so stubborn and refused to listen to his advice.

The division commander looked at Han Fei, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Brother Han, you are still young, you will naturally have to do it by driving the devils out of China, I am already old, and following you will drag you down, besides, a defeated general is not brave enough, more than 9,000 brothers died in Jinshanwei, I am sorry for them, and even more sorry for their parents and relatives, only by dying here can I get the understanding of those fallen brothers and their families." ”

Han Fei shook his head and smiled bitterly when he heard this, how could the division commander think about this? The defeat of the independent division to Jinshanwei was not the fault of the division commander, the flank of the entire Songhu battlefield was surrounded by the devil division that crossed Hangzhou Bay and annihilated how many **** troops were annihilated? These campaign deployments were all specified by the above, and the division commander just faithfully carried out the orders of his superiors, so how could the responsibility for the death of more than 9,000 brothers be borne by one person alone?

Han Fei saw that he couldn't persuade the division commander, so he hurriedly found Chen Wan'er of the health team, told her about the division commander's situation, and asked her to persuade the division commander, it is estimated that with General Chen's face, the division commander may listen.

Chen Wan'er listened to Han Fei's words, but shook her head and said: "Shizuo is an old subordinate of his uncle, he has been following his uncle for decades, I know his temper, no one can persuade him, now it is my uncle's own persuasion, I'm afraid it's useless, you better don't persuade him, let Shizuo have his wishes, sometimes reputation is more important than life!" ”

As soon as Han Fei heard this, he had nothing to say, it seemed that the division commander had made up his mind, and it would take a lot of effort to persuade him, since this is the case, then let him be, but Han Fei was still unwilling in his heart, he secretly made up his mind: In case the fort is captured by devils, it is better to find a way to rescue the division commander, even if it is tied up, it will be tied up.

Unexpectedly, Han Fei's expression was seen by Chen Wan'er, and said: "Major Han, don't make any other ideas, let the division commander take care of it himself, if you do this, he will complain about you and ruin his reputation." ”

When Han Fei heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and felt that what Chen Wan'er said was very reasonable, the people at that time thought differently from the people in the new century decades later, they felt that sometimes this reputation was more precious than life, if I helped blindly, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of the teacher? It's better to save it!

The air raid siren suddenly sounded, Han Fei's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly shouted to Chen Wan'er beside him: "Hide in the air-raid shelter, the devil plane is coming!" ”

The medical nurses in the medical team immediately picked up the wounded soldiers on the stretchers and ran towards the nearby bomb shelters, which were set up on the sides of the batteries, all made of reinforced concrete, quite solid and solid, and completely able to resist the aerial bombs dropped by the devil bombers!

"Why don't you come in yet?" Chen Wan'er asked Han Fei, who was staying on the side.

"You guys go in first, I still have to go up to the fort to have a look, as soon as the devil bombers come, it looks like the devil infantry will also come up!" Han Fei hurriedly rushed towards the fort.

Sure enough, just when Han Fei arrived at the fort, he received a telegram from the brothers of the independent division on the outer position, claiming that the two devils had launched an attack on the position, and there were still a lot of devils, at least two wings!

At this moment, the sound of bomb explosions has sounded one after another on the fort, more than a dozen devil bombers have flown over the fort, and are throwing big bombs downward, although the anti-aircraft guns and machine guns around the fort are desperately shooting into the air, but these devil planes seem to be playing with their lives this time, desperately swooping down towards the fort, frantically strafing, throwing bombs.

For a time, the fire on the fort was skyrocketing, the smoke was filled, and a large-caliber Krupp fortress gun was hit by two aerial bombs, and it was immediately blown to pieces, and the dozen or so artillery brothers on the side of the cannon were also killed on the spot, lying on the ground with blurred flesh and blood, miserable.

Han Fei finally understood at this time: no matter how powerful the firepower and how strong the fortifications on the battery were, it was useless in front of the devil's plane, but a dozen or so bombers flying from the aircraft carrier had already blown up the battery, and there was still a devil's infantry wing on the ground to attack, how could a thousand individual horses be able to block the devil's onslaught?

At this moment, the Nakajima devil on the opposite side was determined to take the Jiangyin Fort, and he found that the bombers of the Naval Aviation had blown the fort into a sea of fire, and said triumphantly to the devil officers under him: "Look, the special combat team of the China Army is like this, no matter how useless it is, can it block the bombing of our imperial bombers?" The brigades immediately launched a general attack and took the batteries before dark! ”

The two devil brigades under the Nakajima Division received the order to attack the fort at the same time, so they surrounded the fort from the east, west and south directions of the Jiangyin fort, and the distress telegrams from the forward position kept coming, Han Fei was so busy that he asked Zhao Yongfu, Li Dagang and Haizi to take the brothers of the special service company to the forward position to intercept them, and at the same time ordered the cannons on the fort to bombard the devil infantry that was attacking.

Seeing this, the division commander hurriedly said to Han Fei: "Brother Han, don't let your subordinates do the work of ordinary infantry!" You are special forces, it's not worth putting them in the front line to fight a positional battle with the devils, there are still my men over there! I'm sure they'll be able to hold it up! ”

"Master, what time is it now, and you still pay attention to this thing? Except for the Yangtze River, which was not blocked by the devils, the rest of the directions around Jiangyin have been blocked by the devils. Han Fei was a little anxious, and he roared.
