After the major generals finished eating, they began to check on the position, and at this time the sky was still raining, but it was a little lighter, but it was also heavy rain,

Throughout the trenches, the soldiers who came to reinforce them began to carry the bodies of the sacrificed soldiers in body bags.

"We can only pack the remains of intact soldiers first and transport them down, and many of them are incomplete, we will put them together, because there is really no way to distinguish which soldiers' remains, and we can only do this!" The new reinforcement came up with the major general and division commander said to Lao Kai and the three of them.

"Okay, thank you, how are our wounded now, have you sent them down?" Lao Kai asked.

"I've already sent you down, but there are still many soldiers who don't go to the battlefield, they are all staying in the bomb shelter, and we can't persuade them to go down!" The division commander immediately reported.

"Well, thank you, get some food for our soldiers, after a night's fighting, just make steamed buns, add some porridge, if you don't have porridge, add some hot water!" Old Kai said again.

"We've got it a long time ago, and the fighters have eaten some!" The division commander responded,

Now the division commander also knows about the tragic situation last night, because in front of the position, there are all German corpses, I don't know how many, the whole is a thick layer, and the mud in many places is blood-red!

"Take me to see the soldiers, let's go see them!" Zeng Quan said beside him.

"Okay, come with me, you guys fought so badly last night, hey! Many of my fighters are unwell! You guys are really amazing! The major general said the division commander.

"Nothing remarkable, if you do, it's the same, this battle, the Germans don't command. And it's raining, we have no other choice but to fight desperately with the enemy, you see, that's it! Li Cannon pointed to the corpses of the German soldiers in front of the position, and said to the major general and division commander.

"Well, let's go! I'm going to see the soldiers! The Major General nodded and led the way ahead.

When he waited for a relatively large square artillery hole, the major general said: "Lao Kai, this is the unit of your 96th Division. There are all in these holes, and it is estimated that there will be no more than 500 people, and the two of you are still ahead! ”

"Okay, thank you, you should also go and see your soldiers first, and say thank you to them on my behalf!" Lao Kai nodded, then looked at the two of them and said.

"Don't talk about this, they are all soldiers, and they are all for the country. Thank you! Zeng Quan waved his hand and said.

"You go in first, I'll go see my artillerymen's children!" Li Cannon said to Lao Kai,

Lao Kai nodded, and then turned into the bomb shelter. At this time, the lieutenant general was lighting a fire, and some of the soldiers were sitting on the ground smoking with their guns in their arms, and some were leaning against the wall. Some are lying down.

"The division commander is here!" When a soldier saw Lao Kai come in, he was about to stand up. Then he spoke. When the other soldiers saw this, they all stood up.

"Sit down. All sit down, sit down! Lao Kai pressed the soldier, and then shouted to the other soldiers, and the soldiers heard it, and slowly sat down,

At this time, several officers stood up and walked to Lao Kai's side.

"How many of you are left?" Lao Kai looked at the officers in surprise, one major and four lieutenants.

"There are a few more holes next door, not many!" The major said.

"Are you Song Yulong?" Lao Kai looked at the major and asked.

"Yes! Song Yulong, deputy chief of staff of the 3rd regiment! Song Yulong immediately said that he was Song Yulong who led the soldiers to resist on the position of the three regiments. At this time, his arms, on his chest, were all straps.

"3 regiments?" Lao Kai looked at Song Yulong and asked.

"When the regiment commander was sent to the hospital, he didn't hold on, the rest!" When Song Yulong said this, he pursed his mouth tightly and lowered his head and couldn't continue.

Old Kai patted him on the shoulder, then walked away from him and began to look inside to see the soldiers. And then he didn't say a word, but the tears had already come down by this time,

"Divisional Commander!" Song Yulong lit a cigarette and handed it to Lao Kai, who took it, put the cigarette in his mouth with a trembling hand, and took a few puffs before calming down.

"Brothers, last night, we won, we held our position, we held the position for the hundreds of thousands of brothers behind, there were heavy casualties, I, I, I'm sorry everyone!" When Lao Kai said this, he raised his right hand to salute the soldiers,

The soldiers all stood up and returned the salute to Kai.

"I'm sorry everyone, I'm sorry!" Lao Kai saluted and spun around in place, and said to the soldiers.

"Division commander, let's not talk about this, being a soldier and fighting a war is justified, there is nothing to say, if we can hold the position, our sacrifice is worth it, I don't blame you!" A lieutenant next to him said to Lao Kai.

"Yes, division commander, I don't blame you, the enemy is simply a deadly way of fighting, we can only hold on, and the brothers who left won't blame you!" The soldiers also began to chim, persuading Lao Kai,

Because they also saw that Lao Kai was covered with bandages all over his body, and blood was also oozing out, and the soldiers also knew that their division commander was also involved in the defense!

"Thank you, thank you, you will go down later, we are going down to rest, Brother Hao said, all the troops of our 27th Army will be replenished!" Lao Kai nodded and said to the soldiers.

The soldiers nodded slightly, and Lao Kai put his hand down.

"Song Yulong, let's go, follow me to see the situation at the other cave entrances! I need to go see the brethren! Lao Kai said to Song Yulong.

"Good!" Song Yulong nodded, and then accompanied Lao Kai to see other air-raid shelters,

3 air-raid shelters, with a total of 447 people, all of them were lightly wounded, and there were 2 school officers left, one was Song Yulong, the other was a battalion commander of the 1st regiment, called Yun Xiaotian, and there were 18 lieutenants left.

The entire division, hundreds of officers, most of them sacrificed, and they may still be found in the hospital.

When Lao Kai came out of the last bomb shelter, he squatted on the ground. The shoulders kept shrugging, and Song Yulong and Yun Xiaotian also twisted their heads again,

After a battalion commander in the defense saw this situation, he also walked over and stood beside Lao Kai. A few minutes later, Lao Kai wiped his tears from the ground and stood up.

"Chief, is there anything else we need help with?" The battalion commander of the major came over and asked.

"No, thank you, the enemy may attack later. You take the fighters to tidy up your positions! Lao Kai said to the battalion commander, and the battalion commander was stunned for a moment when he heard Lao Kai say that the enemy would attack again.

"Don't be stunned, go and repair some positions, the enemy will definitely go up, you look at how many corpses on the German side are in front of the position, you will know, the enemy is going to take our positions regardless of the price!" Go fix the position, during the day. It's a bloody battle! Song Yulong said to the battalion commander of the major.

"Thank you, you will be a guest in our camp in the future!" The battalion commander nodded, and then began to direct the soldiers to repair some positions.

"Let's go, take our men with you. Leave the position and go to the back to rest, the commander has already arranged for people to set up tents in the forest behind, and we will go there first. At noon, a car will come, and we will retreat behind the second line of defense to rest! Lao Kai said to the two of them.

The two of them heard this, nodded, turned around and went into the cave, and then called the warriors up and left the battlefield directly with them!

On the German side, at this time, the commanders of the three German army groups were all sitting in the temporary headquarters, and none of the three army commanders wanted to speak, the casualties were too great, and they were about to withdraw to the forest behind to rest, and here, two army groups would be mobilized from Xindi to rest and recuperate.

"Commander, this is the casualty of our army!" The lieutenant general's chief of staff took a document to the commander of a group army,

The commander took the text a little stunned, then looked down and opened the cover,

I saw the above detailed statistics of the casualties of the entire group army,

All 4 artillery divisions and artillery were bombed, 3,142 people were killed, 6,909 were seriously wounded, and minor injuries were not counted.

3 armored divisions, all the tanks of the army were destroyed, and each armored division was left with logistics troops. The casualties of each division are around 2,600 people,

The 12 infantry divisions, with a total strength of more than 180,000, suffered more than 70,000 casualties, and more than 50,000 were seriously wounded.

"Damn it!" After reading it, the commander cursed, this battle almost crippled his group army,

The casualty reports of the other two armies were also sent quickly, and the number of casualties was about the same as the first, and they were more than half of the casualties.

"Damn, in one night, nearly 300,000 troops lay on the battlefield, and our heavy equipment was almost lost!" When the commander of an army group saw the report, he cursed loudly.

"Report the casualty report to the marshal!" The commander of another army group handed the telegram to his staff officer, telling him to send it to him.

On Ye Xiaohua's side, he also got a specific casualty report at this time, and when he saw this casualty report,

Ye Xiaohua sat in the headquarters for a long time and didn't speak, and the other chiefs of staff also knew that the casualties were very heavy, and they didn't know how to persuade Ye Xiaohua.

"Damn, Lao Tzu has been fighting in the army for more than ten years, and I have never seen such a large casualty report! Those German commanders are some madmen! Ye Xiaohua suddenly hugged his head and scolded loudly
