Tonight!

The moon and stars are shining, and together they form a refreshing and fascinating star map in the sky.

On the ground, the buildings that had been burned by artillery fire during the day were still not extinguished.

A pile in the east and a little in the west, like stars in the sky, burning, illuminating the surroundings. Among them, the assault regiment is now trapped in the north of the city like a beast fighting the most, this is also the little devil wants to fight a decisive battle tonight, and during the day continues to bomb the north city area indiscriminately, for this reason, even the little devil's bomber has been here twice.

It can be said that in the entire Beicheng area, almost all the buildings have fallen into bad luck, and large areas of land have been destroyed.

However, in the whole county, especially in the northern part of the city, which is slightly closer to the city wall, there is no light at this time, and everyone relies on the moonlight to see things and things. Because, at this time, there are a large number of people coming in and out of the city.

The main thing is to transfer the wounded - the heavy casualties of the assault regiment, coupled with the reluctance of the lightly wounded to get out of the line of fire, led to the fact that all those who can lie here are seriously wounded. Although some seriously wounded people had been continuously transferred out of the city before, because as the little devils blew up the streets and alleys along the way, they suddenly accelerated the speed and intensity of the attack, and the assault regiment naturally resisted more tenaciously, which led to a more tragic battlefield, and the number of seriously wounded naturally increased sharply. This also increases the difficulty of transporting the seriously wounded.

Especially in terms of time, because the little devil premeditated and suddenly accelerated, the assault regiment was a little unable to adapt for a while, resulting in a sharp increase in the transfer of the seriously wounded, so that Zhang Qingshan had to send out all the militia to serve as a stretcher team, in addition to helping to transport the wounded, he also transferred all the militia and civilian personnel out by the way. Otherwise, it would be impossible to transfer the original hundreds of seriously wounded and the sudden increase of more than 200 wounded in a short period of time with the original stretcher team...... You must be careful when lifting the seriously injured, and you must not just bump and bump the ground, you must know that any carelessness is likely to increase the injury of the seriously injured and even lead to their death.

The fourth battalion was responsible for the response and security outside the city.

This battle was too bitter and too tragic.

The first battalion suffered the heaviest losses, blocking the little devils layer by layer in front of Xiama Street, although they fought bravely and tenaciously, and also completed the task extremely well, but in the face of many well-equipped little devils, as well as the bombardment of the little devils' aircraft and artillery in turn, the first battalion itself also paid a great casualty rate: the whole battalion had 750 people before participating in the battle, and as a result, when it was withdrawn, it was counted: 48 people were seriously wounded, almost all of them were lightly wounded, but nearly 500 people died.

When he saw this casualty rate and looked at the more than 100 people in front of him who were all injured, Liu Bing, the proud commander of the first battalion, was heartbroken, and knelt on the ground on the spot and cried.

The situation of the fourth battalion is not much better, although they did not directly participate in the defense of the county seat of Sanqiao County, but in order to respond to the defense of the county seat of Sanqiao County, they fought with the main force of the little devils on Qinglong Mountain, although they killed and injured many little devils, and successfully dragged the pace of the middle army of the little devils and completed the set task, but they paid for the casualty rate of more than 400 people. When they were ordered to feel that outside the county seat of Sanqiao County, Zhang Qingshan felt sorry for them, so he let them hide outside the city and repair by the way.

Now, the 4th Battalion is responsible for the escort of the seriously wounded.

The casualty rate of these two battalions has long exceeded the concept of more than half of the casualties, and it can be regarded as disabled. And these two battalions were disabled to the point where they could cancel their numbers, that is, more than half of the assault regiments were killed or wounded......

The situation of the third battalion is not very good, because you can think of it with your ass, and if you want to attack the military camp of the little devil located in the county town, it is tantamount to stabbing a hornet's nest, and the casualty rate is needless to say, and it is enough to complete the task to give everyone a big surprise.

The casualty rate of the militia was not high, but it was also very tenacious, especially the 200 militiamen who participated in the blockade battle on Xiama Street, only 50 or 60 survived. From this it can be seen that they are not afraid of battle, but are very heroic in killing the enemy. Of course, it can also be seen from this aspect that there is indeed a certain gap between the militia and the regular army in terms of training, actual combat, and experience in battle.

If it weren't for the fact that the Fifth Battalion had been guarding the retreat route and had not directly participated in the battle, the Second Battalion had been defending the other two city gates as a countermeasure, and the Second Battalion had been dispatched from two companies early to attack the little devil's temporary military camp, although it was unsuccessful, but the two companies were saved. Therefore, it is precisely because of the presence of these two battalions that the assault regiment can still have the strength to fight, otherwise, if these two battalions are as heavy as those two battalions, the assault regiment can only be forced to retreat on its own initiative, and there will be no strength in this battle, let alone another ruthless attack on the little devil in order to take revenge.

However, whether it is the soldiers of the assault regiment or the militia, even if there is such a heavy casualty rate, even if everyone knows in their hearts that they can't hold it, but that blood is even more boiling, and they have asked to join the war, fight a battle, and fight another battle!

And Zhang Qingshan and the others were not convinced, or unwilling, because they still had an expectation in their hearts: if the third battalion succeeded, it would definitely be a huge blow to the morale of the little devils, so everyone would probably take advantage of the excellent opportunity for the little devils' morale to fluctuate and their morale dropped significantly, and give the little devils a hard blow.

There is another reason: because of the sudden acceleration of the attack and the intensification of the offensive by the little devils, the assault regiment was a little caught off guard, so that the seriously wounded did not have time to transfer, so even in order to buy enough time for these seriously wounded to be transferred, the assault regiment had to defend again, at least until the seriously wounded, civilians and militiamen were all safely transferred out of the city.

Therefore, it is not surprising that everyone received such an order from Zhang Qingshan: the fighters of the assault regiment stayed, and the rest were all transferred.

However, for some 'altars and jars' that can't be brought with them, Hu Yingze, who has always been stingy in logistics, is also ruthless, including food and weapons, if they can't be taken away, the main force must be concentrated at the gate of the north city before retreating to destroy on the spot, never leaving a bullet, not a grain of grain for the little devils...... In doing so, not only can it play the role of clearing the wilderness, but also use the fire ignited by these things to block the pursuit of the little devils.

Because the little devils continued to bombard the northern area of the city during the day, resulting in a large number of buildings being blown up, now, Zhang Qingshan and their temporary regimental headquarters are located on the first floor of a three-story building - a shell is concentrated in the front, resulting in the third floor of this building has been blown up, and the second floor is also exposed a small half, but this building is made of cement, very strong, the first floor is quite stable, and there are no traces of collapse.

But even so, at night, Zhang Qingshan and the others must use cloth and other shields to block the windows from the inside to prevent the light from flowing out, thus attracting shells or sneak attacks from the little devils.

At this time, the makeshift meeting room was filled with smoke, because the surrounding area was relatively tightly covered, resulting in poor air circulation, so the smoke was particularly large. Fortunately, all of you here are old smokers who don't care about this smoke. On the contrary, everyone was solemn because of the situation on the battlefield, and naturally they were not in the mood to care about smoke and the like, but smoked more fiercely.

In the conference room, Zhang Qingshan looked at the hanging military map with his hands behind his back, his eyes blazing, and he was speechless for a long time.

Hu Yingze, who is in charge of transporting the wounded, is not here now, but Tian Guozhong, the chief of staff of the regiment, will definitely not be absent at such an important moment. He sat in his chair, but frowned, looking up at the military map.

On the contrary, Xiao Wei and the other five staff officers were all holding their breath, some of them glanced at Zhang Qingshan or Tian Guozhong from time to time, and some were also staring at the military map.

The atmosphere of the great war is fully displayed here.

In fact, the battle plan has been prepared and sent down a long time ago.

But everyone understands that when the time comes to implement the battle plan, how many battle plans will be carried out smoothly? All kinds of accidents alone are enough to give people a headache, and at most they just hope that the result will achieve the planned result, which is enough to make everyone smile--whether it is the enemy or all kinds of accidents, there will always be all kinds of 'surprises' for the planners.

Seeing Zhang Qingshan like this, Tian Guozhong thought about it for a while, and asked: "Lao Zhang, it's not a way to wait like this, or I'll take someone to the second camp to have a look?"

This was the atmosphere before the war, and it was the same for the top command: everything was ready, and now, just wait for the action to be done and then make adjustments according to the actual situation. However, before the deployment goes down to the war, for the top command, there is really nothing to do but wait for the battle to begin. Of course, I didn't bother to do anything else.

"Ahem!ahem!" Zhang Qingshan coughed twice, turned around and found that the conference room was full of smoke, and after coughing lightly, he said, "Xiao Wei, open the back windows a little, the smoke here is too big." ”

The row of windows in the back is facing the north gate, which is its own defense area, so it is much safer.

said so, but after Zhang Qingshan sat down, he put the cigarette butt in his hand on the tea jar and extinguished it, grabbed the cigarette case on the table, smoked a cigarette, and did not forget to hand Tian Guozhong one.

Taking a deep breath, he slowly exhaled the smoke and said, "Now that the plan has been formulated, I believe that they will strictly implement it, and we don't need to go over to supervise it...... Lao Tian, if you really can't sit still here, I think you should go to Lao Hu's place to have a look, maybe he is busy burning his ass now. ”

"I won't go to Lao Hu wherever I go. I don't want to be caught by him. ”

"It's a good thing to be caught, at least, it's much better than us sitting here and waiting for the result, isn't it?"

"Then why don't you go?"

"I'm the regiment commander, in charge of the military, can I leave at such a time?"

"I'm the chief of staff, and I'm also in charge of the military, can I be arrested again?"

As they spoke, they both laughed.

As soon as the two chief officers said this, the originally solemn atmosphere in the conference room suddenly relaxed.

But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of gunfire outside, but Zhang Qingshan didn't look over there at all, but immediately took out his pocket watch, and the moment he saw the time, Zhang Qingshan's brows wrinkled suddenly......
