As night fell, darkness reigned over the land, and the sound of gunfire had largely ceased, but the smoke of gunfire still filled the battlefield, the wreckage of chariots and artillery was still blazing, and mutilated corpses abounded...

After a whole day of fighting, the two warring sides have now died down, but at this moment no one dares to take it lightly, and the tense nerves seem to be broken at the touch of a button.

The encirclement of the Three-Way Army had been reduced to the vicinity of Myitkyina, and the main Japanese forces and a large number of wounded had been transferred inside, and they were now unable to fly.

After the sky darkened, many Japanese troops on the outer defense line began to break through, and sporadic battles broke out on the battlefield again, but the price paid for escaping the battlefield at this time was extremely huge.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night...

……

"Report Junzuo, the second regiment has reached outside the XC area, and the main force of the third regiment is surrounded at the mouth of the river south of the city, but... There's a bit of a problem there, they haven't captured the train station yet. ”

Liao Mingyu stood outside the camp tent and silently stared at the darkness in front of him: "How is the situation on the Indian army?" ”

"The new 38th Division and the new 22nd Division are attacking the Hudun Bridge in the north, and it is estimated that the battle has ended, but the bridge body was blown up by the Japanese, and they may have to build a pontoon bridge overnight."

Chen Jize next to him stood like a javelin and preached sonorously:

"However, the progress on Commander Yu's side is relatively smooth, and the vanguard has begun to move closer to our third regiment, and it is estimated that it will be able to encircle the east of the city in less than two hours."

"Hehe, that guy is getting big now, and he's mixed into the commander of two armies." Liao Mingyu joked.

Now Yu Xiaoqing, as the supreme commander of the expeditionary force of the Western Yunnan Expeditionary Force, although it is only a temporary position, he also has two armies under his hands, which can be said to be in the limelight.

"Well, Commander Yu sent a telegram asking if he would organize troops to launch an offensive tonight, his 72nd Army is very close to us and can form a joint offensive." Chen Jize continued to ask.

Liao Mingyu took out a match to find a cigarette, took a deep breath, and the rich smell of tobacco made his brain vibrate: "Don't make a big deal at night, it's just a turtle in the urn, the brothers have been fighting for a day, hurry up and trim." ”

"But it's okay to send some small troops to touch the point, but pay attention to the outer positions, the little devils won't settle down tonight."

Chen Jize nodded noncommittally, and immediately turned around and arranged without grinding.

Liao Mingyu spat out the smoke and looked ahead with a little deep meaning. The night sky was as black as ink, with only a few stars dotted with it, but there were many figures in the darkness.

……

Around two o'clock in the morning, in the direction of Myitkyina South West Railway Station...

Unlike in Lashio, Myitkyina Railway Station is a huge railway station with more than a dozen railroad tracks, wooden houses and warehouses around it.

Compared to other places, the terrain here is relatively flat, and at the same time, the garrison force is also multiplied, the Japanese army did not hesitate to send a wing to guard here, and a regiment spent a day with the Japanese here without being able to break in.

It was late at night, except for the observation post, the soldiers who had worked all day were resting on the trenches or bunkers, and the tense atmosphere made many soldiers unable to sleep, only some veterans with big hearts had fallen asleep, but they were holding their rifles tightly, and they could wake up at the slightest movement.

At this time, Ma Zheng took the guard platoon to inspect the position, and just now he received an order from Liao Mingyu to let the first group strengthen vigilance and prevent the little devils from counterattacking at night.

It's just that I'm going to be numb at this time, but my heart is messy. After several battles, the first regiment also suffered considerable battle losses, and it has not been replenished until now, and the number of people in the whole regiment who can still fight is only more than 800, and the strength of less than half of the regiment to hold this territory is really bottomless.

"The third one, go and call the commander of the second battalion to take people to the front to stand by, and change to the third battalion in two hours, and keep an eye on little Japan."

After thinking about it, I decided to wait for it, even if the whole group didn't sleep tonight, we had to cheer up, otherwise I couldn't afford to have a disaster.

"Huh? At night, the second battalion went up? Otherwise, tell one to go to the forest to be on guard, and the brothers will ......."

"A lot of criticism!" wanted to slap Ma over, and interrupted in an unkind tone: "Hurry up for Lao Tzu, if something happens to your mother tonight, will you shoot you or shoot Lao Tzu?" ”

"Ouch... Be... Yes, you are the cauldron and you have the final say..."The soldier named Lao San screamed, shrunk his neck and said stupidly.

"Why don't you go yet!?"

"Yes!"

The third child hit a spirit, and hurriedly ran out in response, for fear that he would have to take another hit on his head if he slowed down.

"Turtle son, if you don't listen to good words, you have to get angry..."Looking at the figure in the distance, I don't know why, I feel a little unsteady, and his heart is heavy, as if something will really happen.

At present, the defense line established by the next regiment is not far from the Japanese army, and in the fierce battle during the day, the little devils were bombed quite badly by the mortars and rocket launchers of the soldiers, but the Japanese army relied on the numerical advantage and arranged quite dense firepower points on the position, which also caused huge casualties to the first regiment.

In a whole day, Yao Ma organized eight attacks, but Kankan only occupied a corner of the station, and the two sides repeatedly tug-of-war in the railway station building, staging a brutal street battle.

It wasn't until late evening that the Japanese reinforcements arrived, and he ordered a retreat when he realized that there was no chance, and both sides were silently licking their wounds after nightfall, until now......

"Oh, the south is going to go into the city, right?"

"But no, can you not be happy that the chariot battalion is over there? Grandma's, since she fought Lashio once, she has almost become a wild baby that no one cares about, and Junzuo doesn't send anyone to support, alas... It's..."

In the forward position, several soldiers were lying in the trenches, chatting with each other.

The squad leader who spoke looked indignant, he was one of the more than 100 veterans who survived in Lashio, and almost the entire First Regiment was defeated in that battle, strictly speaking, they have not been able to recover their combat effectiveness until now, and it is no wonder that the battle was fought so hard.

"Company commander, I said that our regiment used to be the shelf of the Sichuan Army, the baby of Junzuo, why is it raised by the queen now?"

The little soldier touched his head and asked his commander unconsciously. He was just a recruit who was added later, and he didn't know anything about some of the situations at all.

"Don't talk nonsense, there are wars everywhere now, where can Junzuo take care of it, and it's easy to talk about the third regiment? There are more than a dozen truckloads of corpses pulled away by the transport group this afternoon, what do you think! ”

The company commander glanced at him angrily, looked at the front carefully with wide eyes, and continued to say to himself: "Okay, don't talk nonsense, keep an eye on me, the acting regiment commander told us to come and keep an eye on the sentry, if something goes wrong, it will be slapping our second battalion in the face!" ”

"Yes."

The dog leftover reluctantly responded, and the others had to obediently close their mouths when they saw this, and the surroundings were quiet again.
