"I saw it." Fang Shengli frowned. In this situation, there was basically no hope of victory. The gap in troops was too big, and the terrain was not advantageous. It turned out that in order to prevent being discovered, they did not go to the top of the mountain to station. As a result,
Now they are surrounded halfway up the mountain and are in a dilemma. Indeed, in this state, it is almost impossible for them to break out. They can only wait for support. Moreover, they don't know whether the support will come. "Let the brothers fight back on the spot first."
, stick to your position.”
"yes!"
As for Lei Dingtian, he was originally prepared to cut off the rear. It can be seen that Fang Shengli's side was actually surrounded by Japanese soldiers, and there was nothing he could do for a moment. If they were surrounded like this, their bullets would be exhausted. "Fourth Battalion Commander,
You take good care of your position!"
"yes!"
Immediately, Lei Dingtian ran towards Fang Shengli.
"Traveler, what should we do now?" After Lei Dingtian asked this question, he felt that it was a bit redundant. The current situation was really obvious, and he had no choice but to wait for help.
"Stand and wait for help. I think Weiguo will come to support us immediately after knowing our situation." Fang Shengli said.
"Too."
"Send the specific battle situation to Weiguo again." Fang Shengli added, "The previous intelligence may not be accurate and may lead to misjudgment."
"yes!"
…
Nanchang
"Master's seat, Master's seat, it's bad!" A soldier took the telegram and ran to the headquarters. The telegrams he had always received were good news, but today he actually received bad news.
"Come in." Zhou Weiguo frowned. He was still thinking about the battle with Suizao when someone interrupted him.
"The division commander, deputy division commander and regiment commander Lei are surrounded by Japanese soldiers." The soldier handed over the telegram and then said.
Zhou Weiguo took the telegram, looked at it quickly, and his face darkened. The distance was too far, and if the troops were transferred there, it would be too late. "Immediately forward this telegram to Commander Li Zongren of the Fifth Theater, requesting them to support our department."
"yes!"
"Call Captain Liu San and Captain Zhu Ziming over immediately."
"yes!"
A few minutes later, Liu San arrived at the headquarters first.
"What's wrong?" Liu San looked at Zhou Weiguo and asked.
"Shengli and the others were surrounded by the Japanese on a mountain near Suixian County. According to my estimation, the five divisions that the Japanese went to support, as well as the original two divisions and a brigade, may have participated in this siege."
Zhou Weiguo frowned and looked at the map without looking up.
"So many?" Liu San said in surprise, "We must hurry up, otherwise, they won't be able to hold on for long."
"Yeah." Zhou Weiguo said immediately, "My current idea is that after a while, I will let the transport plane take us to the battle site, and then we will parachute and then carry out rescue."
"But, what about the number of people?" Liu San frowned, "The transport plane can't transport many people, right?"
"It's not a matter of numbers," Zhou Weiguo said. "Not all soldiers can parachute from an airplane. What's more, we didn't have this relevant training before."
"Don't talk about the other brothers, I am also very scared and want to jump from the plane." Liu San shook his head, "But there is no way."
"Eh." Zhou Weiguo sighed, "The best way to rescue is actually to ask the troops from the 5th theater to rescue first."
"That's for sure. Have you sent them a report?"
"Sent, but no reply yet."
…
"What? That regiment of the Independent Division is surrounded by Japanese soldiers?" Li Zongren looked at the telegram, "The ones closest to their position now should be Tang Enbo's troops, and they must be allowed to provide support."
"It must be necessary." Bai Chongxi said, "After all, we are all direct troops. No matter what, we can't ignore death."
"Moreover, even if the Chairman knew about it, he would not do anything to save it. Jiansheng, we still have to forward this telegram to the Chairman."
"Um."
…
"Commander, shall we send troops?" a lieutenant general asked a general.
"Go out, of course!" the general replied, "I, Uncle Tang En, am I the one who refuses to save my friendly troops?"
"Yes! Which army?"
"The nearest one should be Zhang Gang's 98th Army. Let Zhang Gang lead the rescue immediately!"
"yes!"
"Report!"
"Come in!"
"Commander, telegram from Chief Li."
"Bring it!"
"yes!"
Tang Enbo immediately received the telegram with a very ugly expression on his face, "Japanese, there are about eight divisions of troops besieging the independent division."
"What? Eight divisions? How much do the Japanese hate them?"
"Well, I'm afraid that if we go to rescue him, we won't be able to do it in time, and instead we will sacrifice our soldiers in vain." Another staff officer hesitated.
"You mean, we will die without saving anything?" Tang Enbo looked at the staff officer and said coldly.
"No, Commander, one regiment of the Independent Division has a few thousand people at most. The Japanese have 8 divisions, which is more than 100,000 or even 200,000 people. We went there with one army, but the independent division regiment was dispersed by the Japanese before we saw it. The Japanese
This force is fully capable of launching another Nanchang battle." The staff officer said anxiously.
"Since the Japanese are all over the place, let's follow up." Tang Enbo said, "Should we just do nothing? Call everyone immediately and have a meeting! The speed must be fast! Let Zhang Gang lead the soldiers to rescue first!"
"yes!"
…
At this time, Fang Shengli was already very nervous. A rough estimate of the Japs he could see in his field of vision was tens of thousands. Tens of thousands of people were surrounding them. It was indeed very dangerous. However, one regiment of the Independent Division, before
When defending, they can fight head-on with the Japanese divisions. Therefore, Fang Shengli feels that holding on is not a big problem. It just depends on the speed of support from friendly forces.
Fang Shengli had just fired a shot, killing a Japanese soldier who was about to fire a mortar shell. Under such circumstances, in addition to suppressing firepower on the enemy, we also had to promptly kill the enemy's artillery and other weapons.
.
"Brigade, should we let the brothers save some bullets, otherwise?" the fourth battalion commander asked Fang Shengli.
"Well, let the brothers bring the Japs closer to fight. Also, be sure to pay attention to concealment! The Japs' cannons don't have eyes!" Fang Shengli then frowned and replied, "Fourth Battalion Commander, how are our machine gun bullets now?
?There are many?"
"It's still quite sufficient, because the materials the master gave us before were relatively sufficient. However, there is no way to predict how long this battle will last."
"I know, just let the brothers fight normally." Fang Shengli said immediately, "Kill the Japanese as effectively as possible. Also, tell the brothers, hold on, the master will come to the rescue soon."
"yes!"
As soon as Fang Shengli finished speaking, a bullet hit his left arm.
Fang Shengli immediately lay down in the trench, glanced at his left arm, and said, "Xiao Liu, bandage it for me."
"yes!"
After a brief bandage, Fang Shengli continued to block the Japs. At this time, Fang Shengli looked at the other soldiers on the position and saw that many soldiers were already injured. Because the Japs had too many bullets and the gap in strength was too big,
