Chapter 500: 140,000 People Unload Their Armor (28)
Zhang Zhonglin was frustrated that due to the hasty battle on the outskirts of the heights, the only radio station they carried was damaged, and the radio station in Wusong Fortress had already been lost in the previous bombings, which made him extremely annoyed, and the lack of a radio station was equivalent to losing contact with the headquarters, and the lost contact with the headquarters could not get news of them, which meant that the headquarters could not send reinforcements.
Thinking of this possibility, Zhang Zhonglin shuddered, if there were no reinforcements, they could only fight alone, but could these hundreds of people withstand the crazy retaliation of the Japanese army, looking at the high-spirited Regiment Commander Yu, he didn't understand where he got his confidence in such a dangerous situation.
After weighing the pros and cons of this news, he did not make it public, but after holding a briefing meeting in a small area, he announced that the headquarters had received their report and replied that he would send reinforcements in three days.
This news greatly boosted the defenders in the Wusong fortress, whether it was the ninth regiment or the third battalion brought by Zhang Zhonglin, there was a sound of cheering, Zhang Zhonglin finally even hid Yu Sanhe, since his self-confidence is so strong, let him cheer him up, isn't it better.
However, Zhang Zhonglin has no bottom in his heart, how long can they hold out, one day, two days, three days, three days is already the limit, with the length of the 6 defense lines of Wusong Fortress, they are not enough to see this little bit of people, as long as the Japanese army has a wing to concentrate on attacking a little, I am afraid that it will be broken in half a day, and with the hope of three days, will it hold on until a miracle appears.
Yu Sanhe saw Zhang Zhonglin's thoughtful appearance, thinking that he was worried about defending the fortress, he walked over and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Are you worried, don't worry, we have survived all the hardships, and we still insist on it for three days." ”
A wry smile rose in Zhang Zhonglin's heart, these three days were nonsense by himself, and it was used to boost their morale, what is the use of comforting himself.
It was getting late, and when the sun finally set completely below the sea in the distance, the big guy's heart also rose to his throat, and he almost didn't dare to blink his eyes more for fear of missing something and delaying the fighter.
It was past early morning, but there was still silence outside the fortress, and the wait made many soldiers of the third battalion lose patience, while the veterans of the ninth regiment, who had gone through several baptisms of blood and fire, calmly guarded their positions and did not move.
Another three hours have passed, and the expected Japanese army still hasn't appeared, and Zhang Zhonglin is also a little breathless, could it be that the Japanese devils just want to wait for them to be exhausted before making a surprise attack.
However, the drowsiness could not be suppressed like a tide of water came one after another, and the drowsiness did not stop, which made Zhang Zhonglin very annoyed, but he couldn't leave the combat position, after all, before the sun rises, before someone comes to change shifts, this shift must be guarded.
As a result, when the sky was bright, there was no shadow of half of the Japanese army, and even Yu Sanhe was puzzled.
"What's wrong with the little devils today, that's not their style."
Yu Sanhe has been at war with the Japanese devils for more than a month, and he has long figured out their temperament, but after being hit, revenge will not be taken overnight, but there was such a big thing yesterday, not only did they not come to take revenge, but they also did not even make a little movement, which is too unreasonable.
Unbeknownst to them, the next night, they kept watch all night in vain, and until dawn, no devils came to attack, but when the sky was about to light, a few rumbling cannons were faintly heard in the distance.
At first, Zhang Zhonglin thought that there was something wrong with his ears and had auditory hallucinations, but when he listened carefully, there was no movement, and the surroundings were calm again, but Yu Sanhe came over and asked him with a confused face.
"Battalion Commander Zhang can hear the sound of artillery in the distance."
Zhang Zhonglin knew that he was not an auditory hallucination, and even Yu Sanhe heard it, so he nodded and said:
"It's a bit strange, the Japanese army has not appeared for a long time, and now there is the sound of cannons on the other side of Shanghai, which is absolutely abnormal."
Yu Sanhe nodded in agreement, he also felt that there must be a problem here.
can ask where the question is, what is abnormal, Yu Sanhe can't tell, and Zhang Zhonglin is also confused.
"The Japanese invaders are not coming, it is exactly what we expect, and it is really a vicious battle that will not stop when we fight."
Yu Sanhe nodded thoughtfully and shook his head again.
"Could it be that the Japanese army did not retaliate against us, but launched a retaliatory attack on the headquarters in the west."
This possibility is not absent and very large, but the current situation Zhang Zhonglin has also studied, the possibility of the Japanese army taking the initiative to attack is not large, but if it moves, Chief Wu will definitely not be able to please him, and it is inevitable that both sides will lose, and then the fisherman will benefit, thinking of this, he sighed secretly, once upon a time he was one of these fishermen, and now where is he going.
At noon, there was a faint sound of artillery in the distance, and it was getting closer and closer, Zhang Zhonglin could even hear the clatter of heavy machine gun bullets, he was finally sure that the two armies were fighting, and it was very likely that the battle was in the suburbs of Shanghai, but Chief Wu's Second Army and the 57th Division were entangled by the 14th Division and the Fifth Division, and the main force could not get out at all.
This time, Yu Sanhe finally couldn't hold his breath, he was trapped in Wusong Fortress for more than a month, he lost all his radio stations, and almost cut off all contact with the outside world, although Yu Jishi had sent someone to send a batch of supplies before, and he also got some useful information about the current situation, but more than ten days have passed, and the situation outside is changing rapidly, and he has no way to understand, so naturally he can't judge what is happening outside.
"Brother Zhang, my heart trembled with the cannon shot outside, you said that this could be who is fighting whom, is it the commander who has launched a counterattack."
Zhang Zhonglin, who had stayed up all night without closing his eyes, turned sideways, lay down on his back, closed his tired eyes, and seemed to enjoy it, but the words he said became more and more confused.
"This situation is getting more and more incomprehensible, no matter what is outside, as long as we hold this Wusong fortress, it is our greatest credit."
Yu Sanhe was a little worried, in case the commander was defeated, let's sit back and ignore it, wouldn't it......
"Phew, Bah, Bah." Halfway through, he slapped himself three times in the mouth.
"Hit your unlucky mouth, hit your unlucky mouth."
Even if Wu Xiaoliang was defeated by the Japanese army, it would not be enough for him to stuff his teeth, but if Zhang Yu and the others saw the battlefield dozens of miles away, they would definitely be surprised.
