Fish intestines!
At this time, the sun was setting in the west and the sun was setting in the west.
In the afterglow of the corona, Dragon Boat Festival was smoking a cigarette and watching the soldiers cleaning the battlefield.
Of course, with Old Abacus here, he doesn't need to worry about those annoying numbers anymore. He just needs to wait for a result.
Commander Chen of the 125th Division was also with Duanwu. This middle-aged man, who was over forty, lit a cigarette for Duanwu and then smoked one himself.
In this battle, they completely wiped out the two infantry brigades of the Japanese Takahashi Regiment. But the casualties were also considerable, especially among the Sichuan army, with more than 3,000 casualties.
When the bodies of the soldiers were placed one by one in an open space not far away, this Sichuan man actually wanted to cry.
But he didn't cry because he should be happy today. Because this can be said to be the greatest result achieved by the Sichuan Army since it left Sichuan, the battle loss ratio with the Japanese was astonishingly one to one.
Moreover, Duanwu took the initiative and replenished all the seizures this time to the 125th Division.
Commander Chen was very moved, because the Japs had a lot of weapons, including more than 3,000 finger rifles, and a Vickers M25 armored vehicle that could move.
Although the armored vehicle was attacked by two grenades. However, because the Japanese had opened the car door at that time, the damage inside the car was not that serious.
But this is definitely a great gift for the Sichuan Army, which even lacks heavy weapons.
What's more, although the Japs only brought one artillery squadron this time, the Japs' mortars and grenades were much stronger than those originally owned by the Sichuan Army.
Therefore, although the 125th Division suffered heavy casualties this time, its overall combat effectiveness became stronger.
But at this time, Commander Chen said with some worry: "Special Commissioner? All these weapons and equipment have been given to us, what will happen to your weapons and equipment?"
Duanwu smiled and said: "I have some place to add, so you don't have to worry about it. It's just that brothers have to work hard. We have to drive the little devil out of Bengbu. And I guess that the Prince of Beibai will not be reconciled and will most likely go find him." Trouble with the 51st Army.”
Danwu knows Kitashirakawa Xi very well. He is very self-righteous and has a good reputation.
He would definitely not just run away in despair, but would stab the 51st Army in the back.
As for how deep this knife goes, it depends on how big the heart of this little devil is.
The Dragon Boat Festival cannot cause the 51st Army to suffer excessive losses. The 51st Army is already fighting head-on with the Japanese 39th Regiment, 40th Regiment, including part of the 26th Brigade. At this time, Kitashirakawa stabbed him from behind, and the 51st Army was very likely to be scattered and divided and surrounded.
And this is why the Dragon Boat Festival made the 125th Division make another hard trip to the 51st Army Defense Area. Commander Yu will definitely not have enough troops to resist the Japanese and he will suffer a big loss. He wanted to scare the Japs away, and sent a telegram to Commander Yu of the 51st Army, asking him not to fight head-on with the Japs and to watch his back.
Commander Yu knew his situation very well, and from the beginning, he had been paying attention to the news in Bengbu.
He has prepared a regiment of troops to defend his headquarters in Dingyuan County.
But at this time, after receiving the Dragon Boat Festival telegram, he felt that he had underestimated the little devil.
At this moment, the communications officer ran in in a panic and reported: "Reporting to the military, for unknown reasons, suddenly the 113th Division and the 114th Division encountered a fierce attack by the Japanese army at the same time. The troops on the front line suffered heavy casualties, and all departments needed to reinforce."
"how so?"
Commander Yu frowned, because at this time every day, the little devils would retreat. And even if they don't retreat, they will stop attacking.
The little devil never fought with him at night, but he remembered that the last time he had a night fight was three days ago.
Commander Yu was wondering. Unexpectedly, at this moment, the scouts he sent out also ran back panting. When they entered the door, they reported: "Reporting to the military seat, a large Japanese army has been discovered in the direction of Bengbu. They are approaching quietly. Ningyuan County is less than ten kilometers away from Ningyuan County."
Commander Yu snorted coldly and said: "Humph, the special commissioner guessed it right. The little devil is here for my head."
The staff officer on the side said: "Military seat, the defensive forces in Ningyuan County are insufficient, we must evacuate immediately."
Commander Yu thought for a while and said: "Even if we want to retreat, we have to move all the people in the city. How many people are left in the city?"
The staff officer thought for a moment and said, "There probably won't be many left. When there was a war in Ningyuan and Mingguang, some of the people had already been mobilized. But now, there are only two to three thousand people in the city who refuse to leave."
"Mobilize them immediately. Before, it was because the Japs hadn't reached Ningyuan yet. But it's different now. The little Japs stabbed us in the back, and the sword was very cruel. The 113th Division and the 114th Division are all in panic. And There is only one garrison left around us that we can use. So the people must leave."
Commander Yu ordered that in addition to one battalion of the garrison troops make a defensive posture in the direction of Bengbu, and one battalion of soldiers mobilized the people to evacuate. The rest of the people protected the military headquarters from evacuating.
The entire Ningyuan County immediately started to move.
When the first battalion of the garrison carried equipment out of the city, many people saw it. The soldiers all looked solemn, obviously they were about to fight a big battle.
At this moment, soldiers from the second battalion knocked on the door door by door, saying: The Japanese are coming, everyone should evacuate immediately, otherwise there will be consequences. The little devil kills people without batting an eyelid, wait for it.
The people in the city felt the tense atmosphere, and the military was also preparing to evacuate. It was obvious that the Japs were really coming this time.
Therefore, the common people spread the word to ten and hundreds, and they packed up their belongings and evacuated together with the 51st Army.
But this time, the little Japanese moved very quickly. Just when the commander was preparing to leave the city, the first battalion was already at war with the little Japanese.
It turned out that Taro Aso had already expected that with so many troops marching, the scouts of the 51st Army would definitely see them. So he took the lead in sending a small force to surprise Ningyuan County.
And sure enough, his surprise attack worked. Just when the first battalion of the garrison regiment was building fortifications, the Japs came upon them.
The first battalion suffered heavy losses as a result, and only half of the company withdrew. Then the two sides exchanged fierce fire outside Ningyuan County.
Since the Japanese were lightly armed and simple, they did not take advantage of them. Both sides suffered casualties.
But this time the Japanese attacked very fiercely, regardless of cost. In just a few moments, more than half of the first battalion suffered casualties, and it was somewhat unable to hold on.
The first battalion commander quickly ordered the communications troops to report to the army commander, saying that the Japs were coming this time with great ferocity, regardless of the cost, and that they were just here to fight for their lives, so that the military headquarters must move as soon as possible, and the faster the better! .
