Hu Lian yawned and looked at the quiet position opposite, and a soldier asked curiously, "Shizao, aren't we attacking?" “

Hu Lian knocked his head and said, "What do you want?" Now there are so many little devils, can we gnaw down? Listen to me, as long as you hold the position, the little devil will be unable to fly, and that is the biggest victory. “

The surrounding soldiers and staff officers all thought so, and couldn't help but feel that their division commander was worthy of being born in Huangpu, and he was indeed powerful.

At this time, an earth-shattering explosion came, and Hu Lian looked at it, but his position was attacked by Japanese artillery fire.

Hu Lian's eyes lit up and said, "Little devil, this is called, there is a way in heaven for you not to go, and there is no door for hell for you to break in, where is it difficult to break through, but you have to pick me here, so that the brothers are ready and ready to fight at any time." “

A staff officer said stupidly, "Shizao, how do you know that the little devil is going to attack?" “

Hu Lian looked at him and said, "You will go down to me as a platoon commander tomorrow, what kind of brains, I don't want to think about it, the devils are running out of water now, and they don't even have supplies, and the shells must be extremely important materials for them, and they will definitely not be wasted. Forget it, I won't tell you, it's okay to be stupid. “

The Japanese artillery did not last too long, and within twenty minutes, the Japanese infantry began to attack, which made Hu Lian very dissatisfied, shook his head and said, "This little devil is really not good, he only fought for 20 minutes of artillery, and he wants my Hu Lian's defense line to collapse with such artillery fire?" Joke! “

Saying that, several Japanese tanks appeared in Hu Lian's binoculars, Hu Lian nodded and said, "That's right, the province made my preparations in vain, order, the battle defense artillery team aimed at me, if anyone misses me within three shots, I will stuff him into the muzzle." “

Although Hu Lian's army was only more than 10,000 people. But because it is the latest German armor division, the equipment is good, and there are even five battle defense guns, which is extremely rare in the national army at this time.

As the brigade commander of the 33rd Brigade, Kei Seya personally led the troops to the front, watching the last seven chariots of the division creaking forward, and couldn't help but sigh a little in his heart, you know, when the troops were first dispatched, the third division had more than 30 chariots. And now there are only a few of them, and I don't know if I can escort the troops out of this hellish place.

The five battle defense guns slowly turned their muzzles, and a soldier watched the monster spitting black smoke slowly towards himself After all, his whole hand was sweaty. "Fire!" Finally, an order was given, and five guns were fired in unison, but to everyone's disappointment, only one gun hit the target, while the other four all deviated more or less. ". What's going on? Hu Lian shouted. Division, don't be angry, it can't be helped, these artillerymen are all recruits. Inexperienced. A staff officer said comfortingly.

Hu Lian said angrily, "If this is the case again, we won't be able to survive no matter how much we have a fortune, look at it, the little devil won't watch us slowly fight our own tanks." “

Of course, Kei Seya would not let the Nationalist Army continue the shelling. He hurriedly pulled the chariot back as he let the artillerymen open fire.

The shells soon fell near the battle defense guns, but because Hu Lian was ready to defend from the beginning. The battle defense artillery was regarded as a top priority, and extremely strong fortifications were built, and the Japanese army had no heavy artillery, except for one that was destroyed. Nothing else happened. The soldiers of the Nationalist Army who operated the anti-aircraft guns kept firing at the Japanese tanks, but the hit rate was extremely low, and in the end, when the Japanese tanks retreated, there were still four tanks.

Hu Lian was about to be angry, he didn't seize such a good opportunity, Hu Lian took out his pistol and was about to shoot the captain of the artillery team, the staff officer hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Master, no, the brothers have tried their best, you see that little devil didn't stop firing when he opened fire, this is really because of too little training." ”

Hu Lian struggled to break free, pointed in the direction of the battle defense artillery team and said, "Write it down for me, after the battle is over, the training volume of the people in the war defense artillery team will be doubled, no, twice, what are you fighting?" ”

The Japanese artillery fire ploughed over and over again on the battle defense artillery positions of the Nationalist Army, and the shells hit Seya Keito felt distressed, and now the shells are one less shot.

Kei Seya shouted, "Infantry attack, grenadier cover, gentlemen, for the sake of the empire, rush!" ”

The Japanese began to attack with all their might, only to see the Japanese in groups of three or five, light machine guns in the back, once the firing point was found, the grenadiers were immediately propped up and fired, and soon hit the first line of defense.

Hu Lian watched the Japanese attack and shouted, "Fight me, let the reserves prepare, and when the devils come up, give it to me, we must beat the devil's sharp spirit back, and let General Tang seize the time to attack." ”

The battlefield was filled with the sound of gunfire, and people were constantly shot and fell to the cold ground, and blood flowed out, staining the land red.

The machine gunner of the Nationalist Army frantically pressed the trigger, and the bullets of the machine gun flew out like popcorn, and the advantages of the Czech style were shown at this time, the point fire of the Czech light machine gun was particularly accurate, and Kei Seya saw with his own eyes that a firepower point of the Nationalist Army killed more than a dozen soldiers in just ten minutes, and his eyes were about to pop out.

Finally, a grenadier hit the firepower point, Seya Kai nodded reassuringly, just wanted to look elsewhere, but found that the firepower point sounded again, and the firepower point was even more weird, a few bullets changed places, the grenadier hit several rounds were useless, and Seya Kai was terrible to see.

The owner of the machine gun was Hu Lian at this time, and when he came to the front line to supervise the battle, he happened to see that this firepower point was knocked out, so he grabbed the gun and started firing immediately, after all, it took him only three months from a front-line regiment commander to a division commander, and he still had no consciousness of a division commander. After Hu Lian killed another devil, he turned around, threw the machine gun to the soldiers who had been waiting for a long time on the side, and said, "See? Fight like this, the devil is very cunning. “

Although Hu Lian's troops suffered many casualties, after a whole day of Japanese attack, Hu Lian's position only lost the first line of defense, and Hu Lian set up a total of three lines of defense, one stronger than the other. Since then, Hu Lian's reputation for good keeping has completely spread throughout the country.

Tang Enbo on the other side got Hu Lian's report. Immediately began to strengthen the offensive troops, his anxious eyes were red, if the Japanese army escaped, he, the commander-in-chief of the front line, would be unlucky, and for Hu Lian's ability to defend, he really didn't dare to worry too much.

Tang Enbo shouted into the microphone, "Attack with all your might, don't care about the dead and wounded, the whole army will attack!! “

The fighters, having received the order, picked up their steel guns and bent over. Under the cover of artillery fire, the general attack began, and Numata Takazo, who was defending in the first line, saw countless Nationalist troops rushing up, and hurriedly kicked away the machine gunners next to him, and took the 92 heavy machine gun and fired at the Nationalist Army, the bullets of the heavy machine gun were very thick, as long as they were hit, they would either die or be disabled, and the 92-style shot was very accurate, and more than a dozen charging Nationalists were killed at once. "Damn, the little devil's machine gun is so powerful. Mortars, mortars hit me!! The commander of a national army company on the front line shouted anxiously when he saw that he could not rush forward.

The mortar who followed the attack next to him hurriedly set up a position, took a thumb and aimed for a while, and "bang" a shell shot out of the chamber. Hit a dozen meters next to the machine gun point. "Fuck you, will you fucking fight, fight again!" The company commander was furious when he saw that the machine gun had killed two more soldiers. These soldiers are all the elite of the Central Army, not strong men, and it is not easy to train. I don't know when I want to add more.

The artilleryman swallowed, squinted his eyes and took his thumb for another long time before putting another shell down. "Boom!!" After an orange ball of fire, the firepower point that had suppressed the national army for half a day was finally knocked out. "That's a good fight, brothers, give it to me. A little devil's head is five dollars, and he robs the money!! The company commander shouted loudly and took the lead and continued to charge forward.

All the artillery of the Japanese army at this time was transferred to the northeast, so that the Japanese army at this time only had grenadiers to use, which made Tang Enbo, who was holding a mortar, raise his eyebrows well, and in less than an hour, he took the first line of defense. "Okay, keep attacking!!" Tang Enbo seemed to see Jiang Zhong's praise of him, and the whole person was about to fly.

- Headquarters of the 10th Division: "What? The first line of defense has been breached? Ryosuke Isoya looked at the Japanese soldier who was scorched black and bloodstained in shock.

At first glance, there was still a person lying on the stretcher, but at first glance, it was a swamp field that was still bleeding.

Ryosuke Isoya hurriedly squatted down, looked at Numata Takazo, who was speechless, and asked, "What the hell is going on?" Why did Numata-kun do this? “

The soldier cried and said, "The Wing Commander saw that the situation was too critical, so he went to the front line and fought with machine guns, and the Wing Commander killed a dozen Zhi Na people, but was hit by the Mortar of the Zhi Na people. Woowoo"

"Bang!" An explosion came from not far away, and a communications soldier hurriedly came in and said, "Report, division commander, the Chinese troops have reached the second line of defense, and their artillery is all in front, and they can already hit our core position." ”

Ryosuke Isoya hurriedly came out to take a look, and sure enough, from time to time there were shells falling into the core position, and Ryosuke Isoya looked to the northeast, "Why hasn't it been broken yet, is the defense of the Shina army so strong?" ”

-- Xuzhou

Li Zongren nodded and said, "Yes, Tang Enbo played well this time, but the devil can't do it this time." ”

Li Pinxian looked at the map and said, "Hu Lian, this kid has a good defense, it's been a day, and the Japanese army can't rush out." Delin, I think we can contact the Air Force and let the Air Force bombers be dispatched. “

Li Zongren took a breath and said, "Okay, but the life and death of Gao Zhihang of the Air Force are unknown, and the losses of our army in the two major air battles are not small. I wonder if the chairman is willing to send the air force. “

-- Wuhan

Jiang Zhong closed his eyes and thought, these two air forces fought well, but the effect of the Soviet air force has been lost, the Japanese army began to equip a large number of new fighters, and then large-scale sorties, it is likely to lead to excessive losses of the air force, the Japanese army's aircraft are easy to replenish, the national army's air force is difficult, Lunan is a small situation after all, and the big stage of Wuhan needs the air force to support it.

Jiang said to Bai Chongxi, "Order, Tang Enbo's troops must overcome all difficulties, not afraid of sacrifice, and resolutely launch the final blow against the Japanese army, tell him how many people have been lost, as long as this battle is won, I will give him twice as many soldiers." In addition, Li Zongren said that the air force was too lost and could not be dispatched for the time being, so he asked him to strike at the enemy with the spirit of Geming. “

-- Xuzhou

Li Zongren sighed and said, "Our chairman is reluctant to dispatch his baby air force, it seems that he is really relieved of us." “

Li Pinxian shook his head and said, "That's not easy to fight." “

Li Zongren closed his eyes and said, "In this way, I ordered Tang Enbo and Sun Lianzhong to dispatch twenty regiments and deploy them along the retreat line of the Japanese army as quickly as possible, this task must be completed within 48 hours, and do not bring heavy equipment." Then let Hu Lian open his mouth, and the rest of the troops pursued along the way, the devils are not easy to fight in the position, and it is easy to fight when they come out, we must pay attention to it, the play must be performed well, and the Japanese army must not feel that we have been prepared a long time ago, and let him feel that these troops along the line are working hard to catch up, otherwise he will turn his head. We can't stop it. Let Sun Yuanliang and Liao Yaoxiang be the gate, and when the 10th Division approaches Linyi, Zhang Zizhong's troops will resolutely attack the 5th Division, and Hu Lian's troops will not participate in the pursuit battle. Let me run to Linyi to stop the Fifth Division, won't he be able to run and defend? Let him play it this time. “

Two days later, Ryosuke Isoya's second line of defense was also about to be broken by the Nationalist Army, especially the attacks from all sides. Let his troops also disperse, and he will have to make a gap in the main force to attack Hu Lian's department, and the whole battle situation is already in jeopardy. Isoya Ryosuke couldn't help but consider whether to suspend the attack and turn to defend with all his might, you know, in the past four days, his troops have lost more than 10,000 people, of course, the national army as the attacker has lost more than 30,000 people, this is because three or four thousand of the 10,000 Japanese troops died on Hu Lian's defensive position.

"It's broken, it's broken. The line of defense was breached for us. Seya Kei came in excitedly and said.

Ryosuke Isoya said happily, "Really? Really, quick, retreat immediately!! ”

Hu Lian looked at the Japanese soldiers running everywhere like ducks, shook his head and said, "Damn, let's go to the front and wait for them, let's go!" ”

Ryosuke Isoya ran more than ten miles with his troops, and most of them lost much strength, so Ryosuke Isoya looked back and said, "How much of our heavy equipment is left?" ”

Sakurada Takeshi said helplessly, "It shouldn't be all there, I've been running for so long, and the Chinese troops shouldn't be able to catch up at once." ”

Before the words fell, a shout of killing accompanied by the body of the gun came from not far away.

Ryosuke Isoya glared at Takeshi Sakurada angrily, waved his hand and said, "Withdraw!" ”

After running for more than ten miles, there were only more than 10,000 Japanese troops around Isoya Ryosuke, which was also thanks to the fact that the Japanese army was elite enough, Isoya Ryosuke stopped and said, "Wait, take a break, order the troops to gather, we are transferring, not a rout!!" ”

Sakurada Takegang wanted to praise a few words, but another shout of killing and gunfire came, Isoya Ryosuke took a look at the binoculars, and he could see the blue sky and white sun flag, and stomped his feet angrily and said, "Why did you come so fast, withdraw!" ”

Along the way, Ryosuke Isoya was attacked every time he wanted to stop, for two days and two nights, the Japanese army did not get a little rest, more than 140 miles, the Japanese army threw everything that could be lost, Isoya Ryosuke's eyes were full of bloodshots, and when he looked at his chief of staff, he was also embarrassed.

With tears in his eyes, Ryosuke Isoya stopped and asked, "How many more people are there?" ”

Sakurada Takeshi ordered to go down to count the number of people, and came back after twenty minutes and said, "Division commander, there are less than seven thousand, and the others have either run away or died." ”

Ryosuke Isoya nodded and looked at the north and said, "After that mountain pass is Linyi, let's go and tell His Majesty the Emperor that the minister is incompetent." I hope that the great cause of the empire will be accomplished as soon as possible. “

Sakurada Takeshi still wanted to persuade again, but Ryosuke Isoya shook his head and said, "The commander of the Fifth Division is my old classmate, and I don't have the face to meet him, so be it." Please do the ritual for me. “

On the mountain pass, Sun Yuanliang looked at it with a telescope and said, "That little devil can't be trying to commit suicide, right?" “

Liao Yaoxiang next to him looked at it and said, "It's really like, let's attack quickly, otherwise if the devil commits suicide, won't our credit be gone?" “

As soon as Sun Yuanliang heard that the credit was going to be gone, he immediately said urgently, "Quick!" Firecracks!! “

Ryosuke Isoya was taking off his clothes, preparing to commit suicide, a cannonball fell not far from him, Sakurada Takeshi covered him with his body, Ryosuke Isoya broke free, and he didn't commit suicide, shouting, "Quick, hide quickly, order the front to immediately react and counterattack." “

But where are Sun Yuanliang and Liao Yaoxiang, who occupy the terrain, so easy to fight, and there are still hundreds of thousands of national troops behind the 10th Division. (To be continued.) )
