"The report of the master, Bei Zhi believes that Lanfeng can still be defended. Our place is not Yang Guji, nor is it Shuangtaji, but Lanfeng County. We can rely on the hard city of Lanfeng City to fight the enemy to the end." Wu Qiujian, the commander of the 264th Brigade, said in a deep voice.

"The city of Lanfeng is also called Jiancheng Libi? Let me tell you, now is not the time to show off. When you attack Maoguzhai and Yifeng, have you ever seen me, Mr. Han, and retreat?" Long Muhan said coldly.

Then, Long Muhan changed his mind and continued, "I have decided now to let the troops retreat immediately! Retreat to Kaifeng. If anyone disobeys the order, he will immediately use military law!"

Everyone immediately looked at each other and then made a decision: "Yes! Master!"

These people have very sharp eyes. If they really disobey orders, it would be a matter of one word that Long Muhan, the commander, wanted to shoot them?

It seemed that in this way, Long Muhan's 88th Division began to slowly retreat and gradually withdrew from Lanfeng County.

The actions of the 88th Division naturally could not hide the attention of the Third Battalion of the Zhiyi Regiment stationed in Sanyizhai.

Don’t forget that the mission of Wang Ziqing’s troops stationed here is to keep an eye on the movements of the 88th Division of Long Muhan.

"Report to the battalion commander, the troops of the 88th Division began to retreat!" A soldier rushed into the second battalion of the First Regiment directly under the Third War Zone and reported.

"What?! The 88th Division has actually retreated?!" Wang Ziqing could hardly believe his ears. He couldn't believe that Zhang Tianhai was so accurate in seeing things. He could actually run away even when he arrived at the 88th Division the day before yesterday!

"Yes, battalion commander. Now the troops of the 88th Division are withdrawing from Lanfeng County!" the soldier reported.

After coming back from the shock, Wang Ziqing did not hesitate any more and said directly: "Order the entire battalion's troops to enter Lanfeng County immediately! Be sure to control Lanfeng County as quickly as possible!"

"Yes! Battalion Commander!" The battalion team responded in unison.

...

In the dark night, countless Central Army units in goose yellow uniforms were withdrawing from the west gate of Lanfeng, and the scene was very spectacular.

But there was also a small Central Army unit with only more than 600 people heading towards Lanfeng County while the night was hazy. However, the entire division's troops left the city. The noise was too great, and they directly covered up the small army.

...

The battle east of Yang Guji is still very fierce, but due to the rise and fall of the troops on both sides, the national army is slowly falling into a disadvantage - it has gone from being unstoppable at the beginning to being stalemate now.

This is Zhang Tianhai's twenty or more times, or the thirty times he has pulled the gun cap.

Although Zhang Tianhai could reimburse a Japanese devil with every shot, he still could not resist the Japanese's reinforcements. These Japanese devils came in a crowd.

What they received was the death order of the brigade commander Major General Sakai Takashi--the artillery position must be kept!

Seeing the troops fighting in front very difficult and unable to make any progress, Zhang Tianhai was naturally very anxious, but there was no way!

If Guo Qiliang's troops can come faster, or if the main force of the 87th Division comes, you will be sure to win this battle. Unfortunately, now you can only see the heavy casualties of the Second Battalion troops led by him.

While gritting his teeth and secretly hated, Zhang Tianhai pulled Gun Quan again, and he wanted to find the next prey!

...

Li Xiangdun is a squad leader of the Second Battalion of the First Regiment directly under the Third War Zone. Tonight, he was ordered by the company commander and platoon leader to follow the regiment to fight.

To be honest, this is not the first time Li Xiangdun has gone to the battlefield. He escaped alive in Nanjing. If the regiment had not led their three thousand remaining soldiers to break through the siege, they would have died on the edge of the Yangtze River.

Not only the Nanjing battlefield, but also the Tangtou battlefield, he came back alive and followed the large troops in the regiment to win a great victory in that battle.

But now it’s different. The current situation is more dangerous than any other time. These troops with less than 500 or 600 people launched an attack on the Japanese troops with more than 10,000 Japanese troops? What is this not a suicide charge?!

However, he never disobeyed the orders of the group leader.

"Swish~Ding!"

At this time, Li Xiangdun was squatting behind a military truck, using the Japanese military truck as a bunker to seize a glimmer of hope.

The bullet whizzed through the air and hit the steel plate of the vehicle, and a spark immediately popped up.

Li Xiangdun clenched his teeth and cursed: "Damn little Japanese, you bully people too much. Damn, I'm fighting with you. Anyway, I'm still worth it! I'll make some more interest!"

In Li Xiangdun's opinion, he was really good enough. During the Nanjing Defense War, the Japanese devils who died under him definitely had more than ten people. Later, they broke through in Nanjing and killed some more.

Later, Tangtou and Yi County fought and made a small victory, which was really enough for him.

Next, he should fight a revenge battle for his brothers who died in Nanjing, and as he said, he would earn some interest!

Li Xiangdun is fine, which does not mean that his brothers are fine. Among these ten brothers, there are only a few people left.

Death is inevitable, the key is to complete the task - the Japanese artillery position must be destroyed, otherwise the brothers who died in front will die in vain.

Li Xiangdun looked ahead, but found that the Japanese artillery positions were not far from them, and were still a short distance of more than 100 meters.

However, it is only a short distance of about 100 meters that they really have to do their best to make a breakthrough!

Li Xiangdun thought about how to break through the Japanese blockade line, but he found that the Japanese artillery that was still firing just now seemed to have a tendency to escape.

Because these artillery soldiers were moving shells to the truck's compartment, they were not trying to escape, what were they thinking?!

Li Xiangdun clenched his teeth and squeezed out a sentence from his teeth: "Impossible, Japanese devils, it's impossible that it's so easy for you to run away!"

"Brothers!! Follow me and blow up the Japanese artillery raised by the bitch. You can't let them leave smoothly and safely!!" Li Xiangdun yelled.

Just kidding, if the Japanese artillery soldiers really ran away, wouldn’t so many brothers in the second camp die in vain?

So Li Xiangdun had already made a decision - even if he died, he would have to bring the Japanese artillery soldiers, but he could not let them run away in vain.

These artillery soldiers are the greatest confidence in the Japanese. This is what the Japanese commander Zhang Tianhai and the Regiment of Regiment Zhang told them more than once.

After shouting, Li Xiangdun rushed forward with his brothers.

However, just after Li Xiangdun rushed out with his brothers from his class, he was hit in the chest by a bullet, and blood suddenly flowed out.

"Run..."

This is the sentence Li Xiangdun shouted after being shot. In the next second, he fell heavily to the ground.

It was getting dark before his eyes, and Li Xiangdun seemed to have seen the comrades from the teaching corps who were training with him, as well as the brothers who died in Nanjing to break out.

In the dark, they seemed to be waving to Li Xiangdun, as if saying, Dunzi, even if we die, we are still upright Chinese soldiers.

Lying on the ground, Li Xiangdun raised his head vigorously, as if he had expected the fact that he might have sacrificed.

However, before he died, he wanted to see the Chinese army breaking through the defense line of the evil Japanese invading army, and use this ironclad fact to comfort him: the Chinese people are winning the great Patriotic War step by step.

However, Li Xiangdun also had a premonition that he might never see these touching scenes again.

"The national army will win, and China will win..." Li Xiangdun's blood-flowing mouth slowly muttered.

The next second, countless shells cut through the sky and smashed hard on one corner of the Japanese artillery position.

“Boom!!!”

“Boom!!!”

“Boom!!!”

A violent explosion exploded in the Japanese artillery, and the dazzling beams shone through the sky.

Li Xiangdun's eyes were slowly closing, but the corners of his mouth were still filled with smiles: This battle will eventually be won, my sacrifice is worth it, China will eventually win the war, and at that time, China will no longer have to suffer the rampant war.

With that beautiful longing, Li Xiangdun slowly closed his eyes and returned to heaven.

He is just an ordinary Chinese soldier, a Chinese soldier who hopes that China can defeat the Japanese invaders and defend the eternal safety of the Chinese nation!

In the face of national crisis, there is no distinction between parties, their common names are "Chinese soldiers"!

...

This shelling will naturally not be a Japanese shelling, but a shelling carried out by a single artillery battalion.

This matter started twenty minutes ago. At that time, Guo Qiliang was leading his troops to advance from another direction towards Yang Guji, but unexpectedly, he did not encounter any enemy troops.

But unexpectedly, just as they were thinking about how to find the traces of the Japanese army, the battle on Zhang Tianhai started.

Guo Qiliang roughly calculated the direction and distance, and asked Zhao Chengge if he was sure to set up artillery positions from here to directly cover the direction where the battle started.

At the beginning, Zhao Chengge was a little unwilling, after all, he was afraid of hurting his own people by chance, and the power of the artillery was quite powerful.

Unexpectedly, Deputy Commander Guo Qiliang refuted it in one sentence: "It takes at least fifteen minutes to set up your artillery position. After half an hour, all day lily will be cold. Then you can play with it! Listen, set up your position to bombard the other side! The artillery fire lasts for five minutes!"

"But..." Zhao Chengge wanted to speak but stopped.

"But what! If you want to hit you, you will be beaten! If you don't hit, you will bear all the consequences!" Guo Qiliang said with great dissatisfaction, but don't forget that he had served as the Chief of Staff before.

Don't treat the Chief of Staff as an officer...

"Yes! Deputy Commander!" Zhao Chengge responded.

"Listen, Zhao Chengge, I can only leave you with the regiment direct team as the security force, and the other two infantry battalions, I will immediately take the front-line support regiment seat! Now the security force is commanded by Chief Gu Shi'an, and before the artillery fire is completed, you will be commanded by Chief Gu! After the artillery fire is completed, Chief Gu will be commanded by Chief Gu!" Guo Qiliang said directly in front of Gu Shi'an, and directly clarified the combat mission.

"Yes! Sir!" Gu Shi'an and Zhao Chengge responded at the same time.

So, Guo Qiliang took two infantry main battalions with quite incomplete institutions to the battlefield - Li Chunfei's first battalion and Han Xingle's fourth battalion.

...

The camera turned back to the moment when artillery fire covered the Japanese artillery positions.

To be honest, this sudden artillery fire not only made the Japanese army a little confused, but even the national army was a little confused.

Yes, as the highest commander of the national army in this battle, Zhang Tianhai was really confused: Is there a saying that there is a living time in this era? And he is a battalion commander of the artillery battalion?

Soon, this absurd idea in Zhang Tianhai's mind was overturned by himself: Let's not talk about whether Comrade ** is born, but who else is there in this battlefield besides the Japanese army? There is only the Central Army's troops.

Let alone whether the Japanese artillery troops will bomb their own positions, just say that their artillery troops are obviously already here.

Therefore, this shelling was definitely attacked by friendly forces.
To be continued...
