In Feixi Town, Tang Kaishan did not know that the 32nd Army was about to run away, and was still making its final mobilization.
In the afternoon, the Feixi Independent Regiment repelled four more attacks by the 49th Army, and at the same time paid a considerable price. Not only did the control area shrink again, but the number of surviving officers and soldiers also further decreased, from the previous 500 to 300.
There were more than 300 officers and soldiers, and most of the more than 300 officers and soldiers were injured.
At this point, the Feixi Independent Group really can no longer hold on any longer.
Although the gangsters in Qipan Village are fierce, they also have their limits.
Tang Kaishan had a premonition that the enemy would launch a general attack before dark, so he called the remaining 300 people to the front for the final mobilization before the war.
"Brothers, I won't say any more. Anyway, there is only one thing. I am invincible, and there are no enemies but me! If Gou Yue's 32nd Army wants to take Feixi Town, it will take it from us.
There is only one way to take the spoils, and that is to step over our corpses!"
Tang Kaishan's tone was sonorous, and the expressions of the more than three hundred remaining soldiers were iron-clad.
"Commander Xu said that the reinforcements will not arrive until after noon tomorrow, but in our current situation, I am afraid it will be difficult to hold on until noon tomorrow." Tang Kaishan paused here and then said, "So I
We have made a decision, our brothers from the Feixi Independent Regiment can die, but they cannot all die here, the third and fourth brothers!"
Feng Wubian and Shi Xiaoqian came out in response, cupped their fists and said, "What are your orders, brother?"
Tang Kaishan said in a deep voice: "After the National Army starts to attack, you two will immediately break out with the reserve team."
"Brother, we are not leaving." Feng Wubian suddenly changed his expression and said loudly, "We want to stay and fight side by side with you!"
"Yes, we will never leave." Shi Xiaoqian also said sternly, "When we became sworn brothers, we swore an oath not to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but to die in the same year, the same month and the same day! Brother, are you not asking us to violate this?
An oath? We will never do such a thing, otherwise, would we still be considered human beings?"
"Confused." Tang Kaishan said angrily, "Do you want the Feixi Independent Regiment to be wiped out here? I asked you two to lead the reserve team to break out first, in order to leave the seeds for the Independent Regiment to make a comeback in the future! What's more, we
You may not necessarily die. After you break through, we will break out too."
However, Tang Kaishan's explanation seemed so weak that Feng Wubian and Shi Xiaoqian didn't believe it at all.
Feng Wubian said resolutely: "If you want to leave, then leave together. If you want to stay, then stay together. If you want to die, then die together. Anyway, we won't break out first. Brother, nothing you say will work."
Tang Kaishan sighed and said sadly: "Sure, then let's go on the road together."
As soon as he finished speaking, a young man in charge of sentry suddenly ran back out of breath.
Tang Kaishan also said that the National Army was about to attack, and immediately said: "Brothers, prepare to fight!"
However, that Xiao Luo ran to Tang Kaishan, but reported: "The group, the head of the regiment, and the dogs of the dog said withdrew, they withdrew! Without it!"
"I know." Tang Kaishan responded casually, and the next moment, his whole body froze.
After a while, Tang Kaishan finally reacted, grabbed the young man and asked eagerly: "Boy, what did you just say? The National Army withdrew?!"
The young man nodded vigorously: "Well, the National Army has withdrawn!"
Tang Kaishan was now sure that he had heard correctly, but he began to wonder if the young minion's brain was burned out?
How is it possible? Their independent regiment has been beaten down to just over 300 people and is about to be completely wiped out, but the Thirty-second Army Group suddenly withdrew? How could a piece of shit like Wan Xiangyun be so kind? In other words,
Is this Wan Xiangyun's trick? But where did this song come from? Playing hard to get? But it doesn't sound like it.
Niu Daqi said: "Brother, won't you know if the National Army will withdraw or not?"
Niu Daqi's words woke up the dreamer. Tang Kaishan suddenly nodded and said: "Let's go and have a look."
At that moment, Tang Kaishan, Niu Daqi, Feng Wubian and Shi Xiaoqian came straight to the observation post.
The observation post of the Feixi Independent Regiment is located on the rooftop of the tallest building in Feixi Town. It can monitor the movements around the town from a high position. The Feixi Independent Regiment has been able to persist until now with an absolutely inferior force and control
Knowing this commanding heights, it is very important to predict the troop mobilization of the National Army in advance.
When Tang Kaishan and the four of them arrived at the observation post, the young man guarding it immediately came up to them.
"Commander, and several battalion commanders, look," the young man said, "the National Army has really withdrawn."
Tang Kaishan and the other two looked intently, and sure enough they saw that the Nationalist Army that had been stationed in various neighborhoods of Feixi Town was retreating. Looking at their retreat, they were very anxious, as if something terrible was chasing them behind their backs.
Yes, seeing this scene, Tang Kaishan and the other two became even more confused, what on earth is going on?
In fact, this is all because of the angle.
Because there is a hill to the east of Feixi Town, and the Kuomintang Army's observation post was on the hill, they could see the Dameishan reinforcements rolling over in the wilderness to the east. However, the Feixi Independent Regiment in the town was blocked from sight, so
No reinforcements were found that had arrived at the military subdivision in Feixi Town.
However, this situation did not last long.
Because as the 1st Armored Battalion continued to approach, the officers and soldiers of the Feixi Independent Regiment guarding the town had also felt the slight tremor transmitted from the ground.
The first person to notice that the ground was shaking was Shi Xiaoqian.
Shi Xiaoqian said in a deep voice: "Brother, do you feel the ground shaking?"
"Well, is the ground shaking?" Tang Kaishan and the others were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then they really felt the floor beneath their feet shaking slightly. They said in surprise, "Is it really an earthquake?"
"It's not like an earthquake." Shi Xiaoqian shook his head and said, "If you listen again, there is still sound."
Tang Kaishan and the others listened carefully, and they heard a faint roaring sound, mixed with a crunching sound, which could make people's teeth sore. Brother Tang Kaishan and the others were not unfamiliar with this sound.
It was clearly the noise of tanks. Could it be that a tank was approaching Feixi Town? Could it be that the Japs were fighting back to Feixi Town?
"My dear," Tang Kaishan said, "The little devil is back again?"
Niu Daqi also said: "No wonder the bastards of the National Army escaped so fast."
At this time, a young man next to him suddenly shouted: "Commander, look, a tank is coming!"
Brother Tang Kaishan and others looked intently, and sure enough they saw a tank coming out from behind the hill on the east side. However, when they saw clearly the military flag on the body of the tank, they were confused. It seemed that it was not a plaster flag but a plaster flag.
Is it the blue sky and white sun flag? Is this a tank of the National Army? But if it is a tank of the National Army, why are they running?
Still Shi Xiaoqian's sharp eyes saw clearly the numbers written on the military flag through the binoculars, and immediately shouted: "Brother, the flag says the newly formed Fourth Army of the Army. It is our reinforcements. It is our reinforcements that have arrived!"
(Dividing line)
In Sihe Township, Li Motang hurriedly walked into the headquarters.
When Li Motang came in, Wan Xiangyun was still bobbing his head and singing along to the gramophone, "Night in Shanghai". Wan Xiangyun was a very enjoyable person. He would always bring a gramophone with him in the army. If conditions allowed, he would even hold a dance, and would force his subordinates to bring their wives to his dances.
Of course, he would inevitably have to show off his several concubines in public.
Seeing Li Motang walking in "excitedly", Wan Xiangyun also said that Feixi Town had been captured.
Wan Xiangyun then asked: "Brother Motang, Feixi Town has been captured? It seems that the 79th Army is more capable of fighting. Chief Chen's background in the civil engineering department is good."
Li Motang smiled bitterly and said: "General Officer, on the contrary, reinforcements from the Dameishan Independent Regiment have arrived!"
"Oh, the reinforcements from Dameishan Independent Regiment have arrived." Wan Xiangyun nodded casually at first, then jumped up from the recliner with his butt on fire, and said in a low voice, "What did you say? Reinforcements from Dameishan Independent Regiment."
Are you here?"
"Yes." Li Motang nodded heavily and said in a deep voice, "Maintainer, pack up and move out quickly."
"No, no, no, no." Wan Xiangyun waved his hand and said, "Let me explain it first. Brother Motang, the main force of the Dameishan Independent Regiment was still fighting fiercely with the Japanese Osaka Division in Meixian County this morning.
Is that wrong? Moreover, the Osaka Division was only defeated, not completely wiped out. Is this correct?"
Li Mutang nodded and said, "At least that's what the military commander's intelligence said."
"That's right." Wan Xiangyun said, "The Dameishan Independent Regiment only defeated the Osaka Division, so now, they should be chasing and annihilating the Osaka Division, so how can they have time to go to Feixi to rescue people? More
What's more, even if Xu Rui had the spare time, would his troops still be able to fly over? It's more than two hundred miles from Meixian to Feixi. Even if Xu Rui's troops don't need to eat or rest, they can't fly over in half a day.
Can you run over here?"
Li Mutang shook his head and said: "I don't know much about this humble position. I only know that reinforcements from the Dameishan Independent Regiment have indeed arrived, and they have already arrived in Feixi Town!"
"The suspected soldiers, this must be just a suspected soldier! It's just a small group of troops sent by Xu Rui." Wan Xiangyun said firmly, "We must not be intimidated by Xu Rui's small group of suspected soldiers. Our Thirty-second Group Army is a
He has mobilized four main divisions, a total of more than 20,000 troops. How can he still be afraid of his small group of suspicious soldiers?"
Wan Xiangyun became more and more certain as he spoke, and finally said: "Chief of Staff, immediately send a telegram to the 79th Army and ask Xia Hanzhong to immediately dispatch a regiment to meet the enemy and reveal the small group of suspected soldiers sent by Xu Rui!"
Seeing that Wan Xiangyun was so sure, Li Mutang also began to have some doubts. After all, he had just received a report from the 73rd Army. Li Mutang didn't know the specific situation. After all, the 32nd Army's temporary
The headquarters is located near Sihe Township, which is still more than 20 miles away from the front line of Feixi Town.
