"Report to the commander-in-chief that the 3rd and 4th battalions of the 1st Guard Regiment were attacked by the Japanese. The troops of these two battalions have already begun to fight back. Deputy Commander Guo asked me to come and ask for instructions if other troops need it. Reinforcement?" A lieutenant ran to Zhang Tianhai and reported.
Zhang Tianhai frowned slightly. He also knew that he was the regimental staff officer of the First Guard Regiment. He had seen him several times.
Looking at the regimental staff waiting here, Zhang Tianhai took a deep breath and said: "Wait a minute, let Deputy Commander Guo not rush to order other reinforcements first, order the troops under attack to be the horns of each other, and be sure to stand up. If you cannot withstand the pace of the Japanese attack, you will be dealt with according to military law!"
"Yes! Sir!!" the regimental staff member stood at attention and saluted.
Looking at the stars still twinkling in the sky, Zhang Tianhai showed determination. He also knew that if he relented, then what would happen to the security forces would be even more chaotic!
Since the Japanese army has chosen to launch a full-scale raid when they are at a disadvantage, they must have a backup plan. If Zhang Tianhai is not calm, then when the entire guard force is in chaos, the consequences will be catastrophic.
"Are you going to fight back tomorrow?" Zhou Fangjie also had a gloomy face. Obviously, at this moment, no one can be happy.
"It depends on the situation! Now the Japanese army wants to fight to the death and tear a hole in our position. I believe they must have back-ups. Our troops currently only need to hold on to their positions. The 13th Division wants to Go south and have his big dream!" As he spoke, the disdain in Zhang Tianhai's tone was evident.
That's right, Zhang Tianhai is already in a state of "strengthening his wings" at this time. The current Japanese Thirteenth Division wants to defeat their ninth theater guard force with only one brigade or half a brigade. Beat him up? How can it be! Unless the Japanese Thirteenth Division exerts all its strength and the Japanese Sixth Division cooperates to stop them, it will be possible to annihilate them all!
"I understand. We'll find out when it gets dark." Zhou Fangjie nodded.
"That's it!" Zhang Tianhai nodded.
…
For Zhang Tianhai, he had to wait, but for the officers and soldiers on the front line, they couldn't wait for a moment. After all, the enemy had already rushed in front of him with bayonets in hand.
On the front line, flames shot into the sky.
Burning bonfires illuminated everything around them, and the Japanese army's flares also began to rise into the sky, illuminating the surrounding area as bright as day.
When enemies meet, they become famous.
"Kill!! Kill these little devils!!" The squad leaders of the national army were shouting, and they wanted to lead the officers and soldiers below to fight to the death!
What is different from other troops is that the officers and soldiers of this national army "kill" by shooting, instead of simply stepping forward to fight with bayonets like other national army troops. . Because their commander-in-chief said: It is the most stupid behavior to fight the Japanese army with bayonets until the last moment! If you can use a gun, don't use a knife. Beating them to death with a gun is the safest and fastest way!
"Baga!!" A Japanese officer yelled angrily.
Yes, in the eyes of the Japanese army, it was extremely ungrateful for the officers and soldiers of the guard force to not fight with them on bayonets. It was equivalent to a confrontation between cold weapons and hot weapons. It was clear at a glance who took advantage and who suffered the loss.
"Kill!!" the junior officers of the Japanese army roared. Seeing their brave and capable subordinates fall one after another, they were already red-eyed.
In the dark night, the two armies were fighting. The burning horses and bonfires, the slowly rising incendiary bombs in the sky, and the blood flowing underground could almost form a small river.
No one knows how many people died here; no one knows how fierce the fighting here is.
The white knife goes in and the red knife comes out. The battle is very fierce!
"Report to the battalion commander, the second company can't hold it anymore, the second company commander has also been killed, and now a lot of Japanese are pouring in!" A soldier rushed to Cao Kejin in panic and reported, his face was already covered by the thick It was dark with smoke.
Cao Kejin was definitely a ruthless person. He picked up a big knife next to him and said viciously: "Little devils are not easy to bully. Are we easy to bully? The security class of the battalion and all those who can pick up a gun Come on, brothers!"
"Yes!! Sir!!" the surrounding officers and soldiers responded.
Before setting off, Cao Kejin pointed to a battalion staff officer and said: "Go to the regiment headquarters and report to Deputy Commander Guo that if there is no reinforcement, the third battalion will be gone, and the Japanese will also open a breakthrough from us. Please think twice, sir." Then go!"
"Yes! Sir!!" The battalion staff member stood at attention and saluted, then immediately ran to the regiment headquarters.
…
Not long after, the battalion staff met Deputy Commander Guo Qiliang at the regiment headquarters.
"Sir Guo, hurry up and send troops to reinforce our third battalion! Our battalion commander Cao asked his subordinate to report that the Japanese have now opened a breakthrough in the middle of our third battalion's defense line. The company commander in charge has been killed. Now our battalion commander has The battalion headquarters security team went up to resist. Our battalion commander said that if the commander doesn't send reinforcements, the third battalion will be gone!" When the battalion headquarters staff member said this, his face was full of anxiety, and even his eyes were filled with anxiety. flushed.
"This..." Guo Qiliang began to hesitate. What he was thinking about was the order conveyed by Zhang Tianhai just now.
"Sir, I beg you, please save our battalion!" The battalion staff officer knelt down and cried.
"Okay!" A voice came from outside the door, "Give me an order. The guard battalion of the army headquarters will immediately reinforce the third battalion of the first guard regiment. If there is any delay, military law will be dealt with!!"
Everyone looked back and saw Zhang Tianhai just walking in from outside the door. He was the only one with the authority to mobilize the headquarters guard battalion for reinforcements. This unit was responsible for protecting the headquarters... and there were three demonstrations. One of the reinforced camps!
"Yes!! Sir!!" Xu Xun, who was behind Zhang Tianhai, responded and quickly sent someone to convey the order.
For Zhang Tianhai, his original idea was to let the third and fourth battalions of the First Guard Regiment withstand the pressure of the Japanese invaders, and then wait for the situation to become clear before launching a counterattack to try to capture the Japanese troops in front of them, instead of now Just top it.
But plans always fail to keep up with changes. Zhang Tianhai has already made the entire third battalion die once, and this may happen again!
As a result, Zhang Tianhai temporarily changed his original plan and directly ordered the headquarters guard battalion, which was preparing to serve as the main force for counterattack tomorrow morning, to reinforce the third battalion headquarters!
