Chapter 143: Defeat

"Give me all back, don't retreat without an order!"

An officer rushed to the front with a soldier and pulled a soldier who was retreating, and the soldier instantly lost his balance and fell, only to his knees because the officer was holding on tightly.

"Didn't you hear me, give me back!"

The soldier was pushed to the ground by the officer, and the cold water on the ground splashed the soldier's face, and he panicked: "Sir, the enemy's fire is too fierce, we can't see the enemy's trace at all, and my partners are all killed in battle......"

The soldier began to cry as he spoke, and the officer stepped forward and kicked him, "Get up for me, you will simply disgrace the Wehrmacht, from the day you became the Wehrmacht, you should have the consciousness of sacrificing your life for the country, and those who disobey orders will not be engraved on the Hero's Monument even if they die, coward!" ”

No one saw the tears in the officer's eyes in the dark night, and he ignored the soldier and continued to hiss there: "Don't retreat, retreat, it's an order!" ”

The interception of the officers played a great role, and most of the retreating troops turned around to block the enemy under the orders of the commanders, and only a small number of soldiers took the opportunity to continue to retreat.

In the dark, the officers did not know how many people they had asked to go back to continue the battle, but they just let one go back to fight when they caught one while shouting, and immediately moved to other places after shouting, in order to be attacked by the Japanese concentrated artillery fire.

"Boom ......"

The Wehrmacht officers shouted loudly, and the Japanese shells poured out here as expected, and many soldiers were hit by the shells because they had no time to dodge, and each word of explosion would take the lives of several or even a dozen soldiers.

The return of the retreating soldiers restrained the tide of retreat, and the soldiers silently gritted their teeth to fight back under the organization of the officers, and the army behind was also rapidly building rudimentary military defenses.

Xu Yuan rushed back to the battlefield, and along the way took his subordinates to collect the scattered soldiers, and by the time they returned to the battlefield, they had gathered more than five hundred troops, and the soldiers obeyed him.

At this time, Xu Yuan led the team near the Japanese encirclement, and they all lay on the ground one by one, and they did not fire.

"It's all fine, divided into two groups, the front one throws grenades, and the back row takes advantage of the grenade explosion to find the exact location of the Japanese army, and then stands up and shoots. The back row of the shooters remember to shoot while scattering, the front row threw grenades and shot on their stomachs, and immediately dispersed after the shooting, a squad of ten people, the captain you already know, wait to listen to his voice gather, the captain will dedicate himself to shout by the deputy captain, and the other scattered people will gather to that no matter whose voice they hear! Xu Yuan said, and the soldiers who heard it passed it to the soldiers behind him.

β€œ1,2,3! Grenades are ready, a hundred meters ahead, throw! ”

At the sound of an order, the soldiers in front threw the grenade that opened the safety of the grenade, and the grenade exploded as soon as it hit the ground, and the time for hundreds of grenades to sound was no more than five seconds.

These unified explosions lit up half of the battlefield, many Japanese soldiers who were slowly approaching were blown to pieces, and the Japanese soldiers who were a little farther away were all exposed by the firelight, and Xu Yuan and others were not discovered by the Japanese army because they were lying on the ground.

"Call me ......"

"Bang! Bang! Bang......"

The Wehrmacht squad behind immediately stood up according to Xu Yuan's plan and shot at the Japanese troops that had just been exposed, especially those dense Japanese troops and assembly points.

"Spread out ............"

The soldiers scattered to the sides and behind as they fired, the Japanese soldiers were caught off guard by the sudden attack, and by the time they reacted, Xu Yuan's team had all dispersed.

"Woohoo...... Xiuxiu...... Sudden ......"

"Boom ......"

Not long after Xu Yuan's team dispersed, one by one the fire snakes sprayed in this direction, and the sound of bullets hitting the ice and the ground came in waves, and a few shells also fell here.

"Concentrate!"

After the explosion, the squad leaders gathered their team members and began to use the squad as a unit to confuse the Japanese army according to Xu Yuan's next plan, so as not to let the Japanese concentrate their firepower.

More and more Japanese troops took advantage of the darkness to touch the edge of the Wehrmacht, and some even entered the area where the Wehrmacht was located, and many Wehrmacht soldiers also touched the back of the Japanese army or blended into the area of the Japanese army.

In the dark night, the suburbs of Anda County were full of battles, and it was even more chaotic in the place where the two armies came into contact, and they didn't know about it. The Wehrmacht in front was shooting frantically, without any rules, just blindly shooting forward, no matter whether it was the enemy or their own people in front, they would throw grenades when they ran out of bullets, and when they ran out of grenades, they would rush forward with their bayonets, and those who lost their bayonets would use their bodies to fight the enemy.

As long as the wounded Wehrmacht soldiers who were lying on the ground could not get up, they would take out their thorns, endure the pain and not cry out, and wait quietly for the enemy, and when the enemy passed by, they would stab the enemy in the foot or pull a grenade and die with the Japanese.

The Wehrmacht soldiers who rushed ahead all held the belief that they would die, and the moths pounced on the enemy like moths to the fire, shouting "The empire will win, long live the empire!" slogan.

Perhaps it was the dying cry of the Wehrmacht warriors, and the soldiers who were still secretly retreating basically stopped and turned their heads to look behind, and then turned and rushed back at a faster speed, muttering as they went.

"Fuck it, eighteen years later, Lao Tzu is a good man again, brothers will reunite after eighteen years, I'm sorry for you!"

"Killing one is one, killing two is a pair, Lao Tzu is not a deserter! Long live the Empire! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The soldiers no longer scurried around in a panic, and began to move closer to the officers, who were still screaming in hoarse voices, and obeyed the commander's command to counterattack in an orderly manner.

"Commander, the army has stabilized, but our situation is still not optimistic, we lost more than one-fifth of our troops in the ambush just now, fortunately we found it in time, otherwise the losses will be even greater!" Staff officer Li Liejun said with sweat on his face.

Jiang Yiwu patted his forehead and said: "What the hell is going on, how can the Japanese army know about our army's plan, is it that the Japanese army ambushed our army, or is there a problem with intelligence?" Be ready to retreat at any time, the soldiers here must leave part of the cover to retreat, the Eighteenth Army of the Wehrmacht cannot just disappear, and the number must not be canceled! ”

According to the regulations of the Chinese Empire, if the number of an army is less than one-tenth of the full number, its number will be cancelled and merged into other armies, and it will not appear again after the number is canceled, which means that the eighteenth army will disappear, which is absolutely intolerable.

The number of each army in the empire was personally appointed by Emperor Qin Yu, and the military flag of each army was personally issued by Qin Yu, and its Cheng dΓΉ was more precious than the military flag of the Japanese army.

Li Liejun was silent, he knew what this meant, but he was unwilling to retreat, this was their first battle after entering the Wehrmacht from the revolutionary army, and he would not give up until the last moment!

"I'm unwilling, let's fight once, even if I become a sinner of the Eighteenth Army!" Li Liejun said calmly.

Jiang Yiwu shook his head, then nodded and said, "You're in love!" ”

"Report, the military doctor is out, the commander is dying......" The soldier who communicated was crying so much that he couldn't speak.

Jiang Yiwu and Li Liejun rushed to the military doctor's camp without saying a word, and rushed there after a while.

I saw that the wounds on Xiong Kewu's body had all been bandaged, and the straps in his abdomen were tied, but blood was spit out from his mouth from time to time.

"Doctor, what's wrong with the commander?" Li Liejun grabbed a military doctor and asked.

"I'm sorry sir, many of the commander's internal organs have been ruptured, and some of them have been directly shattered, and we can only stop a small part of them, I'm really sorry. In addition, because the hemostasis is not timely and the blood loss is strict, coupled with the blood loss of the internal organs, our blood transfusion technology is not enough to deal with this situation, so the commander will soon be ...... because of this, "The military doctor just explained, and they were also very sad, the commander."

Although the blood transfusion technology was used on a large scale in China under the influence of Qin Yu, there were still great deficiencies in the technology and could not reach the same level as later generations, which was also a limitation of the times and technology.

"Lao Tzu doesn't care, you must save the commander, don't Lao Tzu shoot you!"

"Enough...... Ahem......"

Xiong Kewu woke up, saw Li Liejun threatening the military doctor to stop it immediately, and a mouthful of blood spit out as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Commander......

"My ...... Circumstance...... I...... I know, intelligence ...... Issue...... Ahem......"

"Don't say it, old bear, you'll be fine, I'm here!" Jiang Yiwu held Xiong Kewu's hand and burst into tears. Li Liejun took a towel to help the blood that flowed from Xiong Kewu's mouth.

"Ahem, you have to ...... To leave the Eighteenth Army...... Seed ...... Help me with my majesty and family...... I'm sorry...... Take care...... I'm not willing to ......"

Before Xiong Kewu finished speaking, he opened his eyes and tilted his head.

"Old Bear (Commander)...... Woohoo......"

An officer rushed in and shouted: "Commander Chiang, it's not good, the Japanese army has broken into our area and is ready to divide and encircle ......"

The officer suddenly realized that the atmosphere was wrong, and then covered his mouth in shock and looked at the dead Xiong Kewu, and took a few steps back one after another.

At this time, another officer ran in, and just as he wanted to speak, he was startled by the scene on the bed, and what he wanted to say was also held back.

"Xiehe, you are here to prepare for the commander's funeral, block the news, just say that the commander is injured and unconscious, no big deal!" After Jiang Yiwu finished speaking, he pointed to the two officers who ran in and said, "You two go out with me, don't disturb Commander Xiong's rest here!" ”

More than ten meters outside the tent camp, Jiang Yiwu and the three stopped, and before Jiang Yiwu could speak, the two of them spoke.

"Commander, the Japanese army is preparing to divide and surround our army, and some Japanese troops have broken through into our army area!"

"The scouts found an army of about 30,000 people in the rear of our army, and it turned out to be the rebels of Longjiang, less than an hour away from the army, please decide!"

"How is it possible, isn't Commander Zhang Kai already involved the rebels in Longjiang City, how can there be a rebel team here?" Jiang Yiwu was shocked by the information that the latter officer said, which was simply a bolt from the blue.

"Prepare immediately, retreat in fifteen minutes, the troops here leave cover, and give the order to the whole army!" Jiang Yiwu decisively ordered to retreat.
