He Shuguang struggled to get up from the ground, but the pain in his waist tore at his nerves, causing him to groan.

The little Japanese's bayonet had just made a gash on his side, and blood had already dyed half of his clothes red.

"Medic, come here and bandage him."

Liao Mingyu helped him up and called two medical soldiers to hold him up.

"Where is Yu Zhi?" He Shuguang's face looked scorched, looking for his companion in the crowd.

At this time, Yu Zhi was leaning against the trench wall, breathing heavily. His stomach was stabbed with a bayonet and he was shot twice in the leg. The flowing blood soaked his lower body clothes.

"Yu Zhi, you..."

Seeing his comrade who had just fought alongside him fall into a pool of blood, He Shuguang was filled with grief and tears welled up in his eyes.

"Oh, don't act like a fucking bitch, leave quickly, don't let Commander Liao's... hard work go down."

"Dong Dao, take them away first!" Liao Mingyu waved his hand and quickly called everyone to withdraw from the battle. This is not the time to be indecisive.

Watching He Shuguang and others leave, Yu Zhi slowly raised his head. He knew that he couldn't leave like this, so he used his last strength to say to Liao Mingyu:

"Commander Liao, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness...just leave me two grenades..."

Liao Mingyu sighed, silently handed him two grenades, patted his shoulder and said to him: "You are good!"

"Thanks…"

Yu Zhi raised a hand with difficulty and saluted him with a military salute.

Liao Mingyu took a deep look at him, nodded without hesitation, and shouted to the surrounding soldiers: "Retreat!"

The soldiers at the rear immediately followed him and jumped out of their positions.

Takeuchi Renshan looked coldly at the raging artillery fire at the foot of the mountain, his expression very gloomy.

As expected, the group of Chinese people directly opposite did not attack. Instead, the mysterious Chinese army at the diagonal came over. At the same time, their fierce bombardment also caused huge casualties to the troops, which made Takeuchi very angry.

"Hmph, you are not overestimating your capabilities. Order the soldiers on the defense line to be prepared. Since they dare to attack, let them stay on the west bank forever!"

"Your Excellency, Wing Commander... They seem to be retreating." The chief of staff next to him said uncertainly.

"Nani?"

Takeuchi picked up the binoculars and took a closer look. Sure enough, after repelling a wave of attacks, the Chinese people had begun to organize a retreat. The people in the front row were still fighting back, and the people in the back row had continuously withdrawn from their positions.

"Baga, order the troops to attack and eat this army at all costs!"

Takeuchi Renshan roared viciously. This is too damn much. You come here and give me a slap in the face and then leave. Are you still being unreasonable? If you have the ability, keep attacking.

"Whoosh...whoosh"

"Whizzing!"

"Poof! Poof!"

On the hillside, the effect of the smoke bombs had completely disappeared. Japanese machine guns at various firepower points came forward to shoot. Many retreating Sichuan Army soldiers were hit by bullets one after another.

"Boom!...Boom!"

"ah……!"

At the same time, the Japanese infantry artillery hidden in the mountains also opened fire one after another. Several shells bombarded the retreating troops, causing them considerable casualties.

"Damn it! Pay attention to avoid the cannonballs, don't stop and keep running forward!"

Liao Mingyu understood that he must immediately withdraw from the Japs' fire range. The beach opposite Jiqi Slope was a blind spot for the Japs, and they would be basically safe there.

"Oh, I should be able to earn two..." Yu Zhi, who was still lying on the battlefield, muttered to himself.

Seeing the pursuing Japanese soldiers getting closer and closer, without any hesitation, he pulled out the fuses of the two grenades.

At this moment, three Japanese soldiers jumped into the trench where he was.

"Naru! There's still one alive here."

"Grenade! Get down quickly!"

"boom!"

The violent explosion blew the three little devils who were unable to dodge and flew backwards. At the same time, Yu Zhi's life was also taken away.

…

"The regiment leader retreated, so the artillery was aimed at the Japs' position to cover them."

"call out……"

Li Liansheng saw this scene through his telescope. Just as he ordered the soldiers to continue firing, a scream came from the sky.

"Fuck, lie down quickly!"

This scream scared Li Liansheng to the point where his hair stood on end. He shouted loudly and immediately fell to the ground without caring about anything else.

"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

The Japanese artillery battalion began to counterattack, and violent explosions exploded on the Jiqipo position. The artillery battalion was caught off guard, and two infantry guns were destroyed on the spot. The soldiers who had not had time to dodge were knocked upside down by this wave of artillery shells.

"The artillery moved its position! His grandma's is a 105 heavy artillery."

Li Liansheng patted his disgraced head. He was heartbroken over the casualties of the soldiers, but he couldn't care less. He hurriedly called on the soldiers to push the infantry guns and withdraw from the coverage of the enemy's artillery fire.

"Go and tell Krupp to ignore the little Japanese artillery and keep firing at their positions!"

Li Liansheng pulled a soldier over and said urgently to him: Don't worry about anything else. The most important thing right now is to cover the regiment commander's retreat.

…

"The heavy machine guns of the Third Battalion opened fire!"

With a "crash", Milong on the riverside opened the bolt of his gun, personally operated an M2 heavy machine gun, and fired desperately at the west bank position.

"Thump thump thump thump thump thump...!"

The huge sound of M2 shooting sounded on the east bank, and together with Cui Yong's heavy machine gun company, more than twenty M2 heavy machine guns fired a leaping barrage towards the other bank!

The Japanese who had just rushed out of the position were beaten beyond recognition by violent bullets!

The 12.7mm bullets were like scattered artillery shells, kicking up countless dust on the Japanese hillside positions. As long as the little Japanese were hit, their hands would be severed and their heads would be shot, and they would die horribly.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Krupp's howitzer also fired again, this time directly replacing it with incendiary bombs. The hot flames from the explosion of the shells blocked the Japs who were trying to pursue them.

"Boom! Boom!..."

Not only that, the artillery battalions on Yu Xiaoqing's defense line also opened fire one after another. Countless bomb impact points covered the forward positions, and a large area of ​​Japanese soldiers who took the lead were instantly blown down.

Faced with such intensive bombardment, the Japanese army dared to pursue them desperately. They all hid in trenches or went into tunnels to avoid the bombardment of artillery shells.

Taking advantage of this wave of cover, Liao Mingyu led the remaining members of the guard battalion and the reconnaissance team to quickly evacuate the shooting range of the Japanese main position and rushed to the landing point on the other side of Jiqipo.

Long Wenwen and his company had been waiting here for a long time. Seeing the regiment leader's troops returning, he hurriedly called for the soldiers to come forward to help.

"The wounded and the guard battalion will cross the river first. Dead or dead, you can take the troops behind!" Liao Mingyu ordered loudly.

"Understood! The first company stepped forward to launch defense, and the mortars were ready!" Long Wenwen immediately urged the soldiers to take action.

The soldiers used a reverse slope on the shore to establish a defense line, keeping a close eye on what was behind them to be on guard against the Japs' pursuing troops.

Liao Mingyu pulled the radio of the communication soldier. He stretched the antenna to its longest position and shouted loudly at the other end: "Krupp, Krupp, please answer when you hear it!"

"Zi...Zi..."

"Krupp? Can you hear me?"

"I heard you, Captain."

After a while, Krupp's voice finally came over the walkie-talkie.

Liao Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Give me another wave of smoke bombs, we will cross the river soon."

"Zi...I understand."
