Xu Dalong smiled and said: "I will help you with this matter. After this battle is over, I will tell Xueying to let her do some snooping first. Don't worry, Zhao Zhengwei, I, and Xueying will do our best. I'm going to help you."
Sun Desheng was obviously tempted. He said with some envy: "Captain, you are lucky. Director Lin treats you so well. If only Xie Fang could treat me like
It would be great if Director Lin did that to you, even just a little bit! "
At this moment, everything was silent, and the stars in the sky were blinking, as if they were listening to the whispers between the two great men. Love is beautiful, even the cruel war of blood and fire cannot stop people's yearning for beautiful love.
Looking at Sun Desheng in front of him, Xu Dalong suddenly felt a little emotional. It turned out that Sun Desheng, a man of iron bones, had sacrificed his young life early in the duel with the Japanese cavalry. Because of his appearance, Sun Desheng is still living well. Not only that, you may also enjoy sweet love, and you will definitely have children and grandchildren in the future. Not only that, but Wang Chengzhu and Wang Xiaohu also changed their destiny through their own efforts.
Thinking of this, Xu Dalong couldn't help but feel a little proud.
He took a deep breath and smelled the fragrance of flowers in the fields brought by the spring breeze. At this moment, he forgot about the cruel war going on in front of him, and felt so calm and full of joy.
At this time, the door of the armored vehicle opened. Lin Xueying stepped out of the armored vehicle and said eagerly: "Captain, give the general an urgent call."
Since it was night time, Xu Dalong could not see clearly the content of the telegram and asked: "What is the content?"
Lin Xueying said: "General Fu said that the 63rd Army of the Guo Army was suddenly attacked by a large group of Japanese troops. He was still unclear about where this Japanese army came from. The current situation that he can grasp is that this Japanese army The rapid mobile force has no less than one infantry regiment. They have now launched an attack on the 63rd Army from the rear. The 63rd Army was caught off guard and has been broken through two lines of defense by the Japanese army. Currently, the 63rd Army is worried about being attacked by the Japanese army. The 37th Division and this fast mobile force are attacked from both sides, so they have begun to move. There are no Guo Army troops to the west of the Liangzhou River Bridge. General Fu informs you to prepare for the best and the worst."
General Fu is a responsible general. He said that he has ordered the 63rd Army to stop in the direction of the ancient town and build fortifications on the spot. If Xu Dalong and Li Zhendong's troops want to break out, they will be responsible for responding. General Fu suggested continuing to implement the original battle plan. Now the 28th Army, 30th Army, and 31st Army still follow the original battle plan to confront the Japanese 37th Division, and wait until dawn to continue attacking the 37th Division.
Hearing what General Fu said, Xu Dalong felt more at ease. The 30th Army and the 31st Army, which are already on the front line, are the direct troops of General Fu. They are the troops he single-handedly raised and they will absolutely obey General Fu's orders. With the main forces of these two armies, coupled with the support of the 28th Army and the 63rd Army, as long as the Mawushan guerrilla reinforcements can arrive on time, the 37th Division of the Japanese army is still quite confident.
Xu Dalong immediately dictated a telegram and asked Lin Xueying to send it to General Fu.
28th Army Headquarters.
After General Fu sent the telegram to Xu Dalong, he was waiting for his reply when suddenly bad news came again.
In the 28th Army headquarters, General Fu was woken up from his sleep.
The commander of the 28th Army said nervously: "Commander, reinforcements from the Japanese 110th Division have arrived. They are launching an attack on our army's forward positions."
"How is that possible?" General Fu said doubtfully. He stood up and walked towards the battle map, and the staff quickly brought a lantern to illuminate it for him.
After carefully checking the map, he said: "The 110th Division is 200km away from here. How could it suddenly appear here?"
The commander of the 28th Army said: "That's right, they are the troops of the Japanese 110th Division. They have joined forces with the Japanese garrison troops that arrived earlier and are launching an attack on our army."
General Fu looked at the map carefully again and said: "I understand. The Japanese army must have used railway transportation along the railway line and then arrived by car. Judging from this, the Japanese army will not have many troops, at best only An infantry regiment is nothing special.”
The commander of the 28th Army heard what General Fu said and thought that what he said made sense, so he felt a little more at ease and said: "I will immediately send two regiments of troops to stop the enemy."
After saying that, he went to give the order.
After giving the order, he came back and said with some worry: "Commander, our own troops are not enough now, and the Japanese reinforcements are coming in a steady stream. If we follow the original combat deployment, we will annihilate the 37th Japanese Army." The division is probably beyond its capabilities. When the Japanese army arrives, our army will be attacked from both sides and in danger of being destroyed. How should the battle proceed? The commander-in-chief is requested to make an early decision."
Just then, another piece of bad news came. The 63rd Army sent a telegram. Troops of the Japanese 112th Division appeared behind them and were attacking their flanks and rear.
General Fu now understood that the troops of the 112th Division must also be a fast mobile force. Depending on their transport capabilities, there is at most one infantry regiment.
So he immediately sent a telegram to the 63rd Army, asking them to dedicate part of their troops to block the Japanese attack. The main force stayed in place and waited for his further orders.
More than half an hour passed after the telegram was sent, but there was still no reply. According to regulations, after subordinates accept a combat order issued by their superiors, they must reply, saying that they have received the order and resolutely implement it.
The 63rd Army did not reply to the telegram, and General Fu felt a little uneasy. The 63rd Army was not his direct unit, and he was worried that they would not listen to the instructions and take action without authorization.
Therefore, General Fu asked someone to send a telegram to the 63rd Army to inquire about their current situation.
More than half an hour later, the telegram from the 63rd Army was finally sent. The telegram said that the offensive of the Japanese 11th and 2nd Division was very fierce. They used surprise attack tactics and made a breakthrough at the junction of the defensive positions of the two divisions of the 63rd Army. The forwards had already reached the vicinity of the 63rd Army command post. , the 63rd Army has been forced to withdraw from the battlefield.
"What a bastard!" General Fu cursed angrily.
The 63rd Army withdrew from the battlefield without authorization, and the troops of the Japanese 112th Division established contact with the Japanese 37th Division. The battle carefully planned by the Zhongtiao Mountain Command has so far been unable to be continued. It can be said that it failed.
After reading the call from the 63rd Army, the commander of the 28th Army said: "Commander, the situation is getting more and more serious. The Japanese reinforcements have joined the Japanese troops of the 37th Division, and it is no longer possible to annihilate them. I think it is impossible to annihilate them. Now we have fallen into a passive position. Not only that, enemy reinforcements are coming in a steady stream. Our army is surrounded by enemies from both sides and is in danger of being wiped out. Please make a quick decision, Commander-in-Chief."
The commander of the 28th Army wanted to simply cancel the campaign plan, but he couldn't say so directly. He just urged General Fu to make his own decision.
General Fu knew that the plan failed. He sighed and said, "It has been more than three months. We have made so many preparations and put in so much effort for this battle. Could it be that it has failed like this?"
He was really unwilling and hesitated.
The Chief of Staff of the 28th Army saw General Fu hesitating there, and he also came over and said: "Commander, if you want to keep the green hills, you are not afraid of running out of firewood, but it is best to preserve the main force. Please make a decision as soon as possible, Commander."
General Fu shook his head and said: "What you said makes sense, but if we evacuate, what will happen to Xu Dalong and Li Zhendong who stayed at the Liangzhou River Bridge?"
The commander of the 28th Army had already planned to give up on Xu Dalong and Li Zhendong, but he couldn't say it directly, so he gave the chief of staff a wink. The chief of staff understood what he meant and said: "Commander, it is night now. Before the Japanese army has figured out the situation of our army, quickly order Xu Dalong and Li Zhendong to break out. They are all elite troops and they can break out suddenly at night. The Japanese army will definitely not be able to stop them."
General Fu doesn't think so. Now Xu Dalong and Li Zhendong are surrounded by the Japanese army. The four armies of the Guo Army cannot attack the Japanese defensive positions. How can they break out with such a small number of people?
General Fu said: "This is not possible. If they rely on their own strength, it will be impossible to break out of the encirclement. You immediately organize your troops to attack the Japanese army. I will give orders to other armies to attack the Japanese army at the same time." , to support Xu Dalong and the others to break out, so that they can have a chance of survival."
Hearing what General Fu said, the commander and chief of staff of the 28th Army felt very embarrassed.
Nowadays, the Japanese reinforcements are arriving continuously. While the enemy's large reinforcements have not arrived, now is the best time for the 28th Army to break out. If it is delayed any longer, I am afraid that even they will not be able to leave.
The commander of the 28th Army said: "Commander, what you said makes sense. Please give Xu Dalong and others the order to retreat now. We will launch an attack on the Japanese army immediately, but time cannot be delayed. After an attack, no matter whether we can break through Japanese defense positions, please allow us to evacuate immediately."
General Fu understood that now the various armies of the Guo army had no confidence in victory. No one wanted to continue fighting. It was completely unrealistic to force them to break through the Japanese defensive positions. Being able to organize them to launch another large-scale attack on the Japanese army has reached the limit of what these guys can bear.
In this case, General Fu could only agree with their opinions. Otherwise, the 63rd Army would not be the only one to leave the battlefield without permission. At least the 28th Army would only make a show and then withdraw from the battlefield. By that time, his prestige as the commander-in-chief will be greatly reduced.
Nowadays, the only ones who can faithfully execute his orders on the battlefield are the 30th Army and the 31st Army, two of his direct troops. However, it is very difficult to break the current crisis with just these two armies. Obviously unrealistic. If these two armies suffered heavy losses, his capital would be gone, and he, the commander-in-chief, would become a mere commander, and he would no longer be able to play in the Fruit Army series in the future.
He thought about it again and said, "Well, according to your opinion, I will send a telegram to Xu Dalong and the others. You quickly organize your troops and prepare to attack the Japanese army."
General Fu drafted the telegram himself, and he could not let the people of the 28th Army know the contents of the telegram.
He personally came to the confidential personnel he brought and supervised them in sending the telegram.
The purpose of the telegram was to tell Xu Dalong and Li Zhendong that the battle had failed and let them break out with all their strength. General Fu told them clearly not to expect the surrounding Guojun troops to rescue them. Mainly on their own.
After sending the telegram, General Fu felt that what he had done was a bit unethical, but he had tried his best. In today's situation, this is also a helpless move.
After sending the telegram, he urged the commander of the 28th Army to organize troops to attack the Japanese army.
At this moment, Xu Dalong's telegram arrived. General Fu was a little puzzled. His telegram had just been sent, and there was a process for receiving and translating it. He didn't understand why the telegram arrived so quickly.
When he received the telegram and read it, he immediately became happy. The telegram read: "General Fu Junjian of the Zhongtiao Mountain Command: Our Mawushan guerrillas have defeated the attack of the Japanese 33rd Division. They will not be able to continue in the short term." Launched an attack on the bridge. The headquarters of Division Commander Li of the 37th Division of the Guo Army also firmly defended the bridge and defeated the Japanese army on the front.
We have received sufficient supplies of ammunition and supplies, and can deploy troops to attack the Japanese 37th Division, and cooperate with the Fruit Army troops to encircle and annihilate the Japanese 37th Division. "
Seeing this, General Fu was very emotional. With so many Guojun troops on the periphery, they were unable to break through the Japanese defensive positions after fighting for a long time. On the contrary, they were surrounded inside. Not only did they defeat the Japanese army, but they were also able to cooperate with the Guojun troops to launch an attack. This gap is really too big. Big.
The following content made General Fu even more excited. The telegram wrote: "Our Mawushan guerrillas and the rapid mobile force formed by the 358th Brigade of the Shanxi-Sui Army, with a total of three reinforcement regiments and an artillery brigade, will be able to arrive at 4 a.m. at the latest. Go to the battlefield and cooperate with the Guo army to encircle and annihilate the Japanese 37th Division. After dawn, the Mawushan guerrilla air force will launch a large-scale bombing of the Japanese 37th Division.
Please urge the commander-in-chief to urge the troops of all armies to go all out to annihilate the Japanese 37th Division in one fell swoop. "
"That's great." General Fu couldn't help but say.
The commander and chief of staff of the 28th Army were secretly thinking about how to lead the troops away from the battlefield as soon as possible. Seeing General Fu's happy look, they were a little confused about what was going on.
General Fu handed them the telegram sent by Xu Dalong. After reading it, both of them felt very embarrassed, and the expressions on their faces looked very strange. The telegram sent by Xu Dalong was a slap in the face. Surrounded by heavy enemy troops, they not only defended the bridge, but also defeated the Japanese army and had the remaining strength to launch an attack on the Japanese army. They hold heavy troops, but they just want to escape. The gap is really too big.
As soldiers, they also have a sense of honor, and it is inevitable to have a fever on their face.
