In Yoshizumi's opinion, the Chinese's tactics were a bit shameless, and just when the imperial forces had just retreated, they launched a counterattack.

The shameless general named Li Pinxian actually let the five armies line up and launch an attack on the Xianghe River on a defense line that stretched for dozens of miles.

Do you dare to be more shameless, you must know that the Ninth Division of Yoshisumi Ryosuke has lost at least 8,000 people in these days of war, and at this time he has more than 19,000 people left.

The supplementary troops allocated to it by the empire are still in Shanghai, but the attack of the damned Shina people has already come, and he has to rely on these nineteen thousand men to defend the river at this time.

The Japanese army attempted to use the air force and Li Pinxian's troops to bomb, but was intercepted by planes from Xuzhou and Wuhan, and a large-scale air battle broke out between hundreds of planes on both sides.

At the critical time, the Chinese traitors broke out an important role, and they did not know that they got information from there, and they actually blew up all the materials for building pontoon bridges of the 33rd Group Army.

"General Cai Tingkai, tell me about the specific situation." Du Yuming maintained the bearing that he should have as the commander of the group army, and unlike those hot-tempered generals of the Southwest Army, his character has always been calm, which is why Liu Yuan chose himself as the commander of the group army.

Cai Tingkai's face was also very bad, and from the beginning of preparing to cross the river, Du Yuming ordered the troops to take care of the pontoon bridge materials and strengthen the guard.

"Sir, you see that we still have more than fifty ships, can we use them?" Cai Tingkai said.

"Fifty boats, up to five hundred people, this is not enough to stuff the devil's teeth." Du Yuming shook his head and rejected Cai Tingkai's proposal.

Seeing that Cai Tingkai had nothing to do, Du Yuming said lightly, "I will take responsibility for this matter to the headquarters, but you still have to punish the person in charge of this matter, the commander said that the military order is like iron, and you yourself will have to be punished with a major demerit, and the position will be changed from the commander to the acting commander." Do you think it's okay? ”

Although Du Yuming's words sounded like asking Cai Tingkai's opinion, Cai Tingkai still heard the irresistible opinion.

Today's Huangpu students have really grown into the mainstay of the army, they know the most advanced military knowledge, they are strict with themselves, and they are extremely strict in enforcing military laws.

"Yes." Cai Tingkai didn't have much, but straightened up and saluted.

"You don't have to feel pressure, this incident has a great impact, I have to make an appearance, as for the matter of the acting army commander, sooner or later it will be corrected, but this is a major punishment, you must find a way to make meritorious service, otherwise your military career will stop at the lieutenant general." Du Yuming said to Cai Tingkai on the side.

"We went out of Sichuan with General He Long, you may not have seen his proud appearance when we were transferred here from Xuzhou last time, it is nothing more than that we left the main battlefield, and the opportunity for meritorious service is in the hands of their 35th Group Army. However, in the end, who is the First Group Army in the southwest still depends on military merits, so even if we reach the battlefield on the southern front, we must forge ahead, not slack off. Xie Yingbai said while beating the side drum.

"Yes, if this battle is not fought well, it is estimated that our 33rd Group Army will become famous, hurry up and find a way to find a ship." Du Yuming said to Cai Tingkai.

"I quickly contacted the local fishermen and bought their boats." Cai Tingkai turned his head and wanted to leave.

was stopped by Xie Yingbai, "It's useless to look for fishermen at this time, the Japanese will definitely take away all the boats that can be searched, so now you have to contact the dark pile and ask them to help." ”

Due to Cai Tingkai's fifteenth year, Li Pinxian could only temporarily provoke the girder.

After listening to Du Yuming's suggestion, Li Pinxian chose the time to cross the river at night.

In the dark night, more than 200 boats crossed the river at a high speed, in order to take advantage of the night, so that the Japanese could not reflect for a while.

However, the Japanese army seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and the sneak attack turned into a forced crossing.

The flares illuminated the sky red, and the Japanese shells pulled their tails and fell into the water, setting off huge Lang flowers, and many soldiers only fell directly into the water.

The battle continued until nine o'clock the next day, when Li Pinxian's troops finally established a battlefield on the beachhead, but were blocked by the Japanese soldiers and could not advance in depth.

The Japanese followed the Chinese style and fired covering shots at the beachhead with artillery. A brigade sent by Li Pinxian to occupy the beachhead suffered more than half of the casualties.

The Japanese army did not give up and sent a large number of bombers to bomb the beachhead indiscriminately, and the 95th Brigade still held on to it despite the loss of more than 70 percent.

However, at this time, Du Yuming sent a telegram that with the help of the local people, they made a lot of wooden platoons and asked them to continue the assault, while the 33rd Group Army looked for fighters.

That night, the 33rd Army suddenly crossed the river and, without Yoshizumi Ryosuke's expectations, wiped out a Japanese brigade, and then quickly penetrated into the Japanese hinterland.

Cai Tingkai faced the obstruction of the Japanese army, and in a fit of anger, he led a division to desperately intersperse, directly mixed with the Japanese army, desperately rushing forward, and the Japanese army had the intention to eat this branch of the army that was stirred up inside.

However, the other Chinese river crossing troops were eyeing each other, and they had no choice but to retreat, and the defense line of the river was loosened, and the Chinese troops occupied the river.

Li Pinxian's telegram reached Li Zongren's hand, and Li Zongren trotted all the way to Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan was writing an article, and Li Zongren took a look at it, which was about the application of the construction of the Three Righteousness in the War of Resistance Against Japan. Li Zongren naturally thinks that he does not have this writing.

"Fuguo, I have good news for you, our soldiers have crossed the Huai River." Li Zongren said to Liu Yuan with a smile.

Liu Yuan put down the pen in his hand and said with a smile, "It seems that our strategy has finally succeeded, and the little devils don't care about each other." It's time for us to lead the nose and go, and if we let him hit there, he will have to hit there. ”

"Now I think that little devil of Shunroku Hata has to do something." Li Zongren was also a little excited, and he had half of the credit for the Fifth War Zone to be able to have today.

"Don't be happy so early, the crisis still exists, and with the lessons of the past, I feel that it is time for Shunroku Hata to send reinforcements." Zuo Quan said to the two happy people.

"It doesn't matter, our order has been given to Liao Lei and Lu Han, as long as they retreat to the west, the little devils must leave troops to defend their occupied area, if they want to defend such a large area, their attacking troops will have up to three divisions left, and I will go to five and two and leave three troops, and it will be difficult for the Japanese army to do anything on the southern front." Li Zongren analyzed.

"Commander, the military court has convicted Han Fuqu of treason, and he is about to be executed." Li An hurriedly walked in and whispered to Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan nodded and didn't say much, but Li Zongren was full of emotion, the princes of one party, the general of the party-state, ended his life like this.

"After all, he is a general of the party-state, please leave him a whole corpse." Li Zongren suddenly felt sad that the rabbit was dead and the fox was dead, and said to Liu Yuan.

"This matter is a matter of military court, and we cannot interfere with it." ”

"You go and see Han Fuqu, give him a pistol, let him break it himself, he is the general of the country, and at least he must have dignity." Liu Yuan thought for a moment and said to Li An.

PS: Here's the free content.

After Han Fuqu's death, the party-state charged him with the crime he found.

(1) Disobeying orders and retreating without authorization (2) Standing still and supporting troops to protect themselves (3) Collaborating with Japanese criminals and conspiring for independence (4) Confiscating people's guns (5) Arson and destroying the people (6) Distributing opium (7) Undermining judicial independence (8) Collecting and withholding state taxes without authorization and destroying the tax system (9) Embezzling national defense funds (10) Disrupting finance.

In fact, the death of Han Fuqu in real history is related to Liu Xiang of the southwest department, so I won't say much here, interested children's shoes can look through the historical materials, and you should be able to find clues if you think about it.
