"Damn it!" Chang Kaishen said hatefully, "Why is it so slow? What is the Northwest Transportation Agency up to? ”

In order to cope with the Suiyuan crisis, Chang Kaishen temporarily set up the Northwest Transportation Bureau, which is responsible for transporting ash.

At the same time, Chang Kaishen also requisitioned a convoy from the Southwest Transportation Administration to transport materials from Chongqing and other places to Wuyuan.

However, due to the long distance, it will take at least half a month for the war materials sent from Chongqing and other places to reach Wuyuan.

Chen Bui sighed lightly and said: "Because the Japanese army dispatched long-range bombers to bomb the Hexi Highway indiscriminately, most of the trucks of the Transportation Bureau were lost. ”

Chang Kaishen was silent when he heard this.

To put it mildly, the national strength is too weak.

If the party-state has a strong air force, why is it so?

It seems that the defense of Wuyuan will ultimately rely on the Sui army.

After a moment of silence, Chang Kaishen turned his gaze to Bai Jiansheng and Liu Fei again: "Jiansheng, for Zhang, with the existing ashes, can the Sui army build a strong enough defense line?" ”

"I can't." Bai Jiansheng and Liu Fei shook their heads at the same time.

Liu Fei continued: "The ash transported is only enough to build a defensive line, and in order to hold Wuyuan, at least three or more anti-tank defensive lines need to be built. ”

Chang Kaishen's face became more and more embarrassed, and he asked again: "Then how many days do you think the 94th Brigade can hold out in Datong?" ”

"Chairman, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold out for a few days." Bai Jiansheng sighed and said, "Seriously, it already surprising me that the 94th Brigade can hold out in Datong to this day, but after all, the 94th Brigade is just a brigade, and it is already the limit to survive today. ”

As soon as Bai Jiansheng's words fell, another communications staff officer from the third group hurriedly walked in.

"Chairman!" The communications staff officer reported, "The 94th Brigade has sent an urgent telegram requesting a breakout. ”

"Look, I'll just say they can't hold it." Bai Jiansheng spread his hands and said, "I really can't hold it." ”

"Don't, don't break through!" Chang Kaishen was immediately annoyed and angry, and shouted, "It is said that it is ten days, that is, ten days, not a day, and order them to continue to defend it!" ”

"Yes." The communications staff officer was awe-inspiring.

……

Datong, a small western-style building in the south of the city.

The small building had already collapsed in half, apparently blown up by heavy Japanese artillery.

However, the remaining half is still very strong, and the headquarters of the 94th Brigade of the Central Army is located here.

Seeing Zhu Jiahua coming out of the room, Duan Rongqing, Shi Xiangwu, Xie Zhiyuan and other regiment commanders, as well as Guo Guanying, deputy chief of staff and commander of the artillery battalion, immediately looked over.

All of them were hopeful.

Only Liang Gang still bent down behind the observation hole to observe the movement of the Japanese troops on the opposite side.

Although Liang Gang objected, he did not act too dictatorial, but allowed Zhu Jiahua to send a telegram to the attendant's room, requesting a breakthrough.

Originally, Duan Rongqing and the others thought that the attendant room would definitely agree to break through, because they had been holding on to Datong for six days and nights, facing the Japanese army of nearly 100,000 with a brigade of less than 7,000 troops, and holding on for six days and nights.

So they felt that the chamberlain would definitely agree to let them break through in order to save this elite division!

However, when they saw the expression on Zhu Jiahua's face clearly, their hearts immediately sank to the bottom.

The look of hope on the faces of his colleagues made Zhu Jiahua feel distressed for a while, and he wanted to bring them good news and good news to the brothers in the whole brigade, but the cruel reality shattered all illusions.

"Not allowed." Zhu Jiahua endured the distress, gritted his teeth and said, "The principal strictly ordered that Datong must be guarded for ten days!" ”

"!" Duan Rongqing slammed his fist on the door frame, making a bang, the rough skin broke instantly, and blood flowed down instantly, but Duan Rongqing was unaware of it.

Shi Xiangwu pulled the bolt of the submachine gun in his hand and said, "Don't say anything, let's fight." ”

Xie Zhiyuan sighed, silently put away the photos of his wife and children, carefully put them into his jacket pocket and flattened them, farewell, my beloved wife, farewell, my child.

"Flute!" A sharp whistle sounded.

This was followed by a terrible long howl: "The devil has attacked!" ”

Liang Gang finally straightened up from the observation hole and said expressionlessly: "We all return to their respective command positions, and the artillery battalion will launch the last wave of artillery bombardment in five minutes, and this time all the shells can be exhausted." ”

"The shelling is over, the whole brigade counter-assaults, and the original positions are restored,"

"Drive the devils back to the positions near the North Gate, the West Gate, and the East Gate."

"Yes!" The three regiment commanders and Guo Guanying agreed with a bang.

……

Ten kilometers west of Datong City, there is a ditch called the old grave ditch.

There is a mountain in the east of the old ditch, called Mawu Mountain, which is almost the highest peak within a radius of dozens of miles from Datong, and from the top of Mawu Mountain, you can clearly see the whole Datong City.

The Wolf Warrior Brigade and Fan Guan's cavalry company hid in the old grave.

Wang Ye actually wanted to be closer to Datong, but he really couldn't.

More than 50,000 Japanese troops and more than 20,000 puppet Mongolian troops have completed the encirclement of Datong from the north, west and east, and a large number of puppet Mongolian army rangers outside the south gate, and they will definitely be discovered by the cavalry of the puppet Mongolian army.

At this time, Wang Ye took Wei Dayong and Fan Guanyu to lie on the top of Mawu Mountain, watching the battle situation in Datong through a telescope.

Looking at the rows of heavy artillery deployed by the Japanese army outside Datong City, groups of tanks and cavalry, Wei Dayong didn't feel anything, but Fan Guan was enough but inevitably some confidence was shaken.

"Chief of Staff." Fan Guan asked in a low voice, "Do you think our Eighth Route Army can really win the War of Resistance?" ”

"Dog, what are you talking nonsense about?" Wei Dayong's eyes widened, and he wanted to teach Fan Guan enough.

"." Wang Ye pushed Wei Dayong away, because he could fully understand Fan Guandu's mood.

Although Fan Guandao is already a veteran of a hundred battles, he is only eighteen years old after all, and he has just reached adulthood.

Suddenly, seeing so many tanks, trucks, and heavy artillery, as well as thousands of puppet Mongolian cavalry, it was not normal for Wei Dayong to have no mood swings.

It is not known how many veterans betrayed the Motherland and betrayed the nation on the eve of the victory.

Therefore, it is not too normal for a situation like Fan Guan to have a shaken confidence.

The only thing Wang Ye has to do now is to strengthen Fan Guan's confidence and make him believe that China will definitely win this war and win national liberation.

At that moment, Wang Ye smiled and said, "Of course, of course we can win this war." ”

After a pause, Wang Ye said: "We will not only win the War of Resistance Against Japan, but we will also defeat the Kuomintang, win the victory of the revolution in the whole of China, and then establish a new China." ”

"New China?" Fan Guan's eyes really had light again.

"Chief of Staff, what kind of new China will this new China be?"

"This new China." Wang Ye said leisurely, "There will be no landlords, no more need to pay imperial grain, everyone can eat enough, everyone has clothes to wear, every household can afford to eat meat, children can carry schoolbags to school, there are wide roads everywhere, there are many cars on the road, almost every household has a car, and there is an hour to run two or three hundred kilometers of trains, get on the train from Beiping in the morning, and go to Shanghai at noon." ”

"We will also have a strong navy, and the sea will be full of our warships."

"We will also have a strong air force, and the sky will be full of our planes, black planes."

"Our army will become incomparably stronger, no longer have to march on foot like now, each squad will be equipped with a chariot, and we will have artillery so powerful that the enemy will despair, and a volley of fire will be able to inflict devastating damage on the enemy's deep positions......"

Not only Fan Guan was enough, but Wei Dayong also listened leisurely.

Who wouldn't yearn for such a new China? Right.

However, the sound of gunfire from within Datong City soon pulled Fan Guanyu and Wei Dayong back to the cruel reality.

The three of them raised their binoculars almost at the same time, and through the field of vision of the telescope, they could clearly see the dazzling red light suddenly blooming in the streets and alleys in the center of Datong City and the edge of the southern part of the city.

"This is the artillery of the 94th Brigade of the Dudu." Wei Dayong said.

"The 94th Brigade is going to fight back again, and there is still a counterattack!"

Wang Ye was also secretly surprised, and he couldn't help but have some admiration while being surprised.

This beam steel is really a hard bone, and you have to fight back at this time?

Fan Guan's tears had already flowed down, and he asked: "Chief of staff, they have all held out for six days and nights, why haven't they broken through yet, why haven't they broken through?" ”

"Why don't you break out yet?"

Wei Dayong said abruptly: "I don't allow it." ”

"yes." Wang Ye muttered, "The order is to hold on for ten days, and this is only six days." ”

"But it's too hard." Fan Guan said gloomily, "There are only a few thousand people in one brigade, but they have to hold on for ten days under the siege of nearly 100,000 puppet troops, and the Japanese army still has so many tanks and artillery, it is too difficult." ”

"How can it be easy to fight?" Wang Ye said, "If you should sacrifice, you have to sacrifice." ”

While speaking, the shelling had ended, and the 94th Brigade launched a counter-assault again.

I saw that countless figures immediately appeared on the street that was still empty just now.

The devils in the earthy yellow military uniforms, and the Central Army in the grass-green military uniforms, all armed with bright bayonets, launched the most brutal white-knuckle battle in the smoke and dust of gunpowder.

Ten kilometers away, it seems that you can hear the sound of killing.

……

And at this time in Datong City.

The 94th Brigade of the Central Army launched the bloodiest counter-assault in the past six days.

The three main regiments and all the officers and men of the brigade directly under the brigade who were still able to move were thrown into this wave of counter-assault, and even the officers and men of the artillery battalion participated in the counterattack after the shelling ended.

"Little devil, I'll be your grandma!"

A veteran rushed into the middle of the devil desperately with a bag of explosives holding the fuse.

With a loud bang, the dazzling red light and the tumbling flames instantly devoured the veteran of the Central Army and several devils around him.

"Woo Woo Woo!"

Three sharp bayonets stabbed into the abdomen of a veteran of the Central Army almost simultaneously.

Between life and death, the veteran of the Central Army actually opened his mouth and laughed, and with the sound of laughter, the red blood overflowed like spring water.

The three Japanese soldiers were all in danger and were about to turn around and retreat.

However, it was too late, and with a bang, the explosive bag was blown up by the veterans of the Central Army sitting under their buttocks, and the huge shock wave overturned the houses.

The three devils were buried alive in an instant.

"Mother, please forgive my son for being unfilial!"

A captain of the national army roared, dragged his broken leg, and threw himself under the track of a devil tank with a five-pound bag of explosives.

The captain of the national army was shattered in an instant.

In this battle, the officers and men of the 94th Brigade simply filled in with their lives!

Under the desperate counterattack of the officers and men of the 94th Brigade, the devils finally lost their support and retreated like a tide.

In the blink of an eye, the devils of the Mongolian army and the 1st Division were driven back to the area near the west gate, the north gate and the east gate, and the 94th Brigade miraculously restored its pre-battle position.

After receiving the report, Liang Gang said to the telegraph soldiers with tears in his eyes: "The Headquarters, the Attendant's Office, and the Principal: This morning, the remnants of the officers and men of the 94th Brigade of the Independent Brigade launched a counter-assault against the Japanese invaders with great courage and fearlessness......

……

A quarter of an hour later, the telegram reached the Huangshan Mansion in Chongqing.

As soon as Tang Zong finished reading the first few sentences of the telegram, the entire battle hall was drowned out with cheers, and the posture was as if he had won a big battle.

Everybody loved it.

Chang Kaishen was even more excited and his face flushed!

Only Tang Zong's expression was gloomy, because he was the only one who finished reading the last few sentences of the telegram.

“…… Our brigade also suffered many casualties, there were less than 1,000 capable soldiers, there was very little ammunition left, especially explosives, and I expected that the Japanese offensive would become more and more fierce and frenzied. ”

"The officers and men of our brigade are already determined to kill themselves."

"Those who are worried may not be able to complete the ten-day hold."

"I only hope that the Sui army can reorganize the defense line as soon as possible and stick to the five plains."

"Career Liang Gang, June 18, 31st year of the Republic of China, in Datong."

……

In Beiping, No. 11 Iron Lion Hutong.

"What did you say?" After listening to Seizo Yusue's report, Okamura Ninji couldn't believe his ears, "The 94th Brigade of the Central Army launched a counter-assault this morning and drove the attacking troops of the Mongolian army and the 1st Division back to the original point? The troops involved in the offensive all retreated to the original point of the attack? ”

"Hello." "It's hard to believe, but that's the way it is. ”

"Yaga." Okamura Ninji said hatefully, "When the Japanese-China War entered its sixth year, it was really surprising to me that there was still such a capable Central Army of China. ”

"Yes." There are three deep thoughts of the last essence.

"After the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Nanjing, the Central Army of China was already in a slump, and in the following years, the Central Army of China rarely played a qualified record on the battlefield."

Okamura Ninji said in a deep voice: "What is the origin of this Du94 Brigade? ”

Seizan replied: "The predecessor of the 94th Independent Brigade was the 94th Division of the Central Army of China, because it suffered defeat in the civil war with the Eighth Route Army of the Communist Party, so it was reduced to the 94th Independent Brigade, but according to intelligence, this independent 94th Brigade has been supplemented with a large number of veterans of the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps, especially the brigade commander Liang Gang, who was the battalion commander of the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps, so in terms of blood, it is actually a remnant of the Central Military Academy Teaching Corps. ”

"The Central Military Academy Teaching Corps?" Okamura Ninji said, "Gui Yongqing? ”

"That's a fool and a coward." "Actually, this army is still very combative, but it's a pity that there is a captain who is stupider than a pig, so his performance in the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Nanjing is so bad, and he was even revoked because he escaped from the battle." ”

"Then let them run away again." Okamura Ninji said, "They're used to it anyway!" ”

"Hello!" Youmojing paused three times, and said to the communication staff officer behind him, "Order, the Mongolian army and the 1st Division must clear the Zhina army in the city before noon today and recapture Datong!" ”

"Hello!" The communications staff officer paused.

……

Minutes and seconds passed, and soon it was noon.

There was no good news from the Datong front for a long time, and Okamura Ningji's face gradually became embarrassed.

A brigade, only 6,000 people survived, and it has been holding out in Datong for six days and nights, how many people can be left? And how much ammunition is left with the army?

The 94th Brigade of the Central Army is not an exaggeration to describe it as exhausted, right?

However, the Japanese army assembled a heavy division, a tank division and a veteran infantry division, and in this case it still couldn't take Datong?

How was this battle fought?

I really don't know what Mitsuo Nakazawa, Kanshiro Shibayama and the others are doing.

Finally, hurried footsteps sounded, and a communications staff officer hurried in.

"Your Excellency, General!" "After a morning of fierce fighting, the 3rd Brigade of the 49th Infantry Wing has advanced to the center of DT, and the remnants of China are about to be cleared. ”

"Good!" Yusue Seizo clenched his fists hard.

After waiting all morning, I finally waited for good news.

Okamura Ninji also breathed a long sigh of relief.

However, less than half an hour has passed,

Suddenly, another staff officer came in and reported: "Your Excellency, the remnants of China have once again launched a fierce counter-assault, and the 3rd Brigade of the 49th Infantry Wing has been forced to withdraw to its original position. ”

"What?" Yousue Jingsan changed his color, "You still have the ability to fight back?" ”

Okamura Ninji also said awe-inspiringly: "These soldiers are really tough." ”

After a pause, Okamura Ningji said again: "But no matter how tenacious it is, it is useless, the flesh and blood can't resist the torrent of steel after all, order the Mongolian army and the 1st Division to continue to strengthen the offensive, and be sure to eliminate the remnants of the enemy before it gets dark today!" ”

"Hello!" The communications staff officer paused.
