Wang Zhizhong was under a lot of pressure, and the reinforcements were close at hand, but he couldn't get through, and he already knew at this time that Chief Li was transferring the 85th Army at the beginning, but Wang Zhonglian's 85th Army did not listen to the orders of the Fifth Theater Commander's Department at all.

Although he can't write two "Wang" characters in one stroke, maybe Wang really has something to say about Wang, Wang Zhonglian's 85th Army has been grinding in Lincheng for nearly two days, but it can't come.

Later, the Second Army came, and they didn't say a word, they rolled up their sleeves and did it with the little devils!

It's a pity that the best rescue time was missed, and the little devils have already surrounded Teng County.

The Japanese army had an advantage in strength, plus the planes in the sky and the artillery on the ground, they were not afraid of the arrival of reinforcements at all, and the Tang Army, which thought that Lao Tzu was the best in the world, was hit on the head by the little devil, and it was not right to see that this little devil was too powerful, and he was not an opponent in positional warfare, so he hurriedly took a detour to the left flank of the Japanese army and went directly to the east of Yishan.

It doesn't matter if the 85th Army withdraws, Lincheng will be in danger, if it weren't for the advance of the Second Army, Lincheng might have fallen in Xianto County.

That really became the laughing stock of **** on the battlefield in Xuzhou.

The Tang Army originally did not plan to rush to the aid of Teng County, avoid the enemy's edge, and attack the side in a roundabout way, this was the Tang Army's tactics for fighting against the Japanese army, and Tang Keqin's explanation of this was very high-sounding.

That's an afterword!

At this time, Li Delin could not care about punishing the 85th Army, but fortunately, the Second Army arrived in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable, although there was a canal barrier north of Xuzhou, but once the Japanese army rushed over, the consequences would be catastrophic.

The battle was fought until the night of the 18th, and the defenders of Tengxian County had held out for six days and five nights, which was much better than he expected, and it was almost time to break through.

But at this moment, even if you order to abandon the city and break through, it has become a very extravagant thing.

The Japanese army was blocked in Fuji County for six days, and the Japanese commanders, who were already furious, would definitely not let go of the defenders of Fuji County, judging from the strength of their attack today.

They want to annihilate the defenders of Teng County!

The Japanese army wants to take a breath, and at the same time, they are also in Liwei!

Once the Tengxian garrison was completely annihilated, the morale of all the officers and men participating in the Fifth Theater would be a huge blow.

"Chief Li, Cipher No. 3." Li Delin looked solemn in the face of the red and blue arrows strangled on the map, and there were few people in the war room who spoke, Huang Xuecun walked over and whispered.

In the fifth theater, the number one person is naturally Li Delin, the commander, the second is Xu Yanmou, the chief of staff, and the third should be one of the several deputy commanders-in-chief.

But in fact, this No. 3 is very mysterious, few people know his true identity, and none of the people who know it have ever revealed it to the public.

“……”

"If he makes a move, there is some hope, Brother Decao has asked for help several times, I am ashamed of the brother of the Sichuan army!" Li Delin burst into tears.

"Degong."

"Call back, my side can cooperate with him, and I can ask the Chifeng City Department of the Second Army to respond."

"Yes, do you want Commander Sun to prepare in advance?"

"Well, it should be announced in advance, the question is, can the defenders of Teng County hold out until tomorrow night?" Bai Jiansheng said calmly.

"Do you want to give Brother De Cao?"

"It is no longer necessary for the headquarters of the 22nd Group Army to be located in Lincheng, is it possible for Sun Decao to withdraw to Xuzhou?" At this time, Liu Weizhang also suggested.

"I'm afraid that Brother Decao may not be willing, more than half of the 20,000 Sichuan troops are trapped in Teng County, is he, the commander-in-chief of the Sichuan army, willing to throw away his robe and withdraw to a safe place by himself?" Xu Yanmou shook his head.

"Then don't pull it back for the time being, with Sun Lianzhong's troops here, their safety can still be guaranteed."

"How's the situation in Linyi?"

"The Third Army suffered a big loss in Ju County, mainly because it had just arrived at the battlefield, the situation was unknown, and now the Japanese Field Brigade had occupied Ju County, and the troops of Commander Pang were replenished and rested in the area of Tangtougou and Xianggongzhuang in the east of Linyi, with Zhang Xinchen's 59th Army as the backing, it was impossible for the Japanese army to break through Linyi for the time being." A colonel replied.

"The Sakagaki Division is known for its ferocity, and Zhang Xinchen and General Pang Lao may not be able to stop the Japanese army when they join forces."

"Zhang Xinchen is also a veteran general of the Northwest Army, and he knows that he has a heavy responsibility, and he will definitely live up to my trust, and he will definitely be able to block the Banyuan Division on the front line of Linyi!" Li Delin has great confidence in Zhang Xinchen.

"What I am most worried about now is whether our troops on the southern front can hold back the Japanese troops going north......"

Leng Feng is also worried about this.

Although historically, the Japanese army on the southern front was blocked south of the Huai River and had no ability to continue northward, but at that time, the Japanese army was only a main division, about 30,000 people.

And now the total number of corps on the southern front of the Japanese army is more than 60,000, and there are only four armies on the southern front plus miscellaneous security forces.

Whether the Japanese army can be held back south of the Huai River is really unknown.

Of course, this is not impossible, as long as the Japanese army can be held south of the Huai River for more than half a month, it will still be beneficial to the entire war situation.

As the sun set, the earth fell silent once again.

It was dark, and the fighting of the Japanese defenders outside the city seemed to have gradually stopped, except for the sporadic gunfire and explosions.

The Japanese troops besieging Tengxian County fired a few flares into the sky after a while, and the bright flares were dazzling, and the strong light pierced the darkness, illuminating the inside and outside of the city as if it were day.

This whole day of fierce fighting, in addition to the difficult city wall was broken into the Japanese army by a force to entrench, the rest of the county is still in the hands of the defenders, the Japanese army fired tens of thousands of shells to Teng County, and the defenders in the city also threw tens of thousands of grenades at the Japanese army in color.

Most of the houses in the city have collapsed, there are fires everywhere, black smoke billowing out, and the smell of charred corpses under the rubble is very pungent.

"There is no living, there is a living squeak......"

"Save me, save me......"

"Is there a living here?" An excited voice came.

"I can't save it, hey......" I thought the officer came over to take a look, and the person was pressing. Under the ruins, there are at least several layers of masonry pressed on it, and if you move a little, it is estimated that the space will collapse, save people with your bare hands, I'm afraid that when you dig people out, it will also be a corpse, no way, they keep their physical strength and wait for dawn to do it with the Japanese!

"Give me a good time!" The Sichuan Jun brothers below may also know that it is not that the people above do not save him, but that there is no way to save him!

"Which of you is coming?" After a long silence, the officer asked.

No one answered, and the atmosphere was very depressing.

The officer gritted his teeth, pulled out his gun, aimed it under the gap, and pulled the trigger suddenly.

"Brother, my life is yours, you have to bless me to kill more devils, wait, I'll come down to accompany you!" The officer knelt down and kowtowed three times to the brother below!

At the Xiguan Power Plant, all the divisional and brigade-level headquarters in Teng County are concentrated here, so that they can pool their wisdom and use the guard forces of various command organs.

"The enemy has entered the city, the defense of the city has reached the last moment, from the early morning of the 13th to now, we have been holding on to Teng County for six full days, Chief Li asked us to hold on for three days, we have completed the task, from now on, we must fight for ourselves, fight street battles with the enemy, and must not let the little devils easily occupy Teng County!" Wang Zhizhong announced loudly.

"Commander-in-chief, now that we've completed the mission, isn't it time to make a breakout plan?"

"Yes, we have to leave some hope for our troops!

Retreat and break through, Wang Zhizhong didn't want to, but now that Tengxian County is surrounded by Japanese troops, even if they can rush out, I am afraid it will be difficult to get rid of the pursuit of the Japanese army.

"Reinforcements, where are the reinforcements, where are the reinforcements?"

"It's not that there are no reinforcements, it's just that they were blocked by the Japanese army, and the troops of General Chi Fengcheng of the 31st Division of the Second Army fought fiercely with the 63rd Wing of the Japanese Army in the Guanqiao Belt this afternoon......"

"In other words, as long as we break through the encirclement of the Japanese army and rush to Guanqiao, we will be saved!" Someone was pleasantly surprised.

"It's not that simple." Chief of Staff Zhao Weibin smiled bitterly.

"Commander-in-chief, are we fighting or defending, if you say a word, the brothers listen to you, even if you die in Teng County, it will be worth killing one more devil!"

"Yes, killing one is enough, killing two earns one!"

"Xuanwu, what do you think?" Zhang Xuanwu was the commander of the defense of Tengxian County personally appointed by Wang Zhizhong, and the battles in Tengxian County were basically commanded by Zhang Xuanwu, and he, the commander-in-chief, was only responsible for logistics support.

"Commander-in-chief, if we continue to fight, I'm afraid we will be wiped out." Zhang Xuanwu said heavily.

"Then there's only one way to break through?"

"Commander-in-chief, even if we break through, which direction do we break through, who comes to the palace, we have so many seriously wounded, we can't leave these brothers behind!"

"Yes, commander-in-chief, our Sichuan army has died too many people since it left the Sichuan War of Resistance, and we can no longer leave our brothers."

"If you want to break through, tonight is the best time, while the Xiguan Railway Station is still in our hands, and the Japanese army has not yet figured out our reality, take the opportunity to break through from the West Gate......"

"Not tonight!" Wang Zhizhong shook his head.

"Why not?"

"If we break through tonight, then the Japanese army will take the opportunity to capture Teng County, and tomorrow the Japanese army will join forces to go south, think about it, does Lincheng have such a strong city defense as ours?"

"The commander-in-chief means that at least wait for the Second Army to announce the fortifications of the city."

"If our breakthrough leads to the collapse of the entire front, then we are sinners of the country, sinners of the nation, do you understand?" Wang Zhizhong said with red eyes, why didn't he want to break through, but he couldn't patronize himself when he broke through, and he also had to take care of the robe behind him.

"But we can't hold on anymore!"

"Hold on one more day, and after a day, we'll break through!" An abrupt voice suddenly sounded in the war room.

"Captain Tang?"

The captain of the squad sent by the 1st Division of Honor to assist in defending the city and asked the Sichuan army how to fight street battles?

"I have received an order from Shangfeng, there will be troops outside the city tomorrow night to meet us to break through, Commander-in-Chief Wang, if you agree, I will reply immediately."

"Shangfeng, which Shangfeng is yours?"

"We're all fighting in one trench, how many more will go up?"

"If it's Chief Li's order, why don't you just give it to our commander-in-chief?" Questioning voices rang out.

"The breakout is a top-secret plan, and naturally we can't use ordinary secret telecommunications to prevent the Japanese army from intercepting and deciphering it, and when the time comes, our breakout will be tantamount to death."

"Why should we trust you?"

"You can not believe us, but you should always believe that my superiors will not let our team die in vain, right?" Tang Xiaoying asked rhetorically.

"This ......"

"How many troops are there?"

"I don't know, but not too much, definitely the most elite." Tang Xiaoying said.

"Weibin, Xuanwu, look, can we hold out for another day?"

"Food and ammunition are quite sufficient, thanks to the honor of the first division, we were replenished before the war, otherwise, we would not be able to hold on to now, the most grenades, there are eighty boxes, that is, medicine, we have no medicine on hand, tomorrow at the end of the day, I am afraid that there will not even be enough gauze, and the soldiers who can fight, about 3,000 people......"

"Street fighting, only street fighting, this is the only way we can persevere!"

"That's right, if we put the little devils in to fight, their planes and artillery will not be able to give full play to their advantages, and we will take advantage of the terrain and geography to maneuver with them and hold on for a day, it will not be a problem!"

"Then it's decided, all the people in the division headquarters and brigade headquarters will participate in the battle, if there is no gun, two grenades will be issued, and a big blade will do, isn't this 10th division known as the steel army, our Sichuan army is made of granite, if he dares to come in, he will shatter his steel teeth!" Wang Zhizhong gritted his teeth and said.
