Just when everyone was looking for Jiang Haoran in panic, Jiang Haoran was sitting alone next to an artillery pit outside the city. Yuan Dong and Su Peng passed by happily just now, letting him know that the Japanese should have been captured.

Annihilation, but he didn't seem to be happy about it. Instead, his expression was dull at this moment, as if his mind was far away.

The smoke from the battlefield had not dissipated, and the strong smell of blood slowly came with the late cool breeze, letting him know clearly that death was really close to him.

Everyone can cheer and indulge for a while. But he can't. He carries the lives of more than two thousand Japanese soldiers on his body. A small oversight today left less than a hundred brothers in the machine gun battalion. If he

If you had set up an artillery suspicion formation for the enemy in advance and allowed the Japanese to bomb, and exposed the enemy's firepower earlier, the machine gun battalion would not have suffered such heavy casualties. Although war has its laws, death is unavoidable. But as a commander, because

His own negligence led to the casualties of innocent soldiers. Even if he achieved brilliant results, it can only be said to be a victorious battle and a failed command. Therefore, he must calmly think clearly about how to fight the next battle and never make similar mistakes again.

mistake.

Although four to five thousand Japanese troops were wiped out today, it not only did not help the current predicament, but would usher in even crazier revenge from the Japanese army tomorrow. Needless to say, I cut off the Japanese army's escape route, and inflicted nearly 100,000 losses on the Japanese army along the way.

Wan, will definitely become a poisonous thorn in the eyes of the Japanese army, which they are eager to remove quickly. The firepower and combat effectiveness exposed today will definitely make the Japanese army pay more attention to it. It is inevitable that the army will attack the border. The attack from the north and the south is not terrible. After all, there is a strong city.

Sharp artillery can stop them for a while. But the Japanese army will not be that stupid. They will definitely carry out air strikes first to destroy their fortified city with sharp artillery. In this way, the soldiers who are lucky enough to survive will become rootless trees, and there will be no way to stop the two sides of the Japanese army.

Road attack.

Although it seems that there are still strong foreign aid from Xue Yue's ten divisions, which can hold back the Japanese divisions. However, Jiang Haoran clearly remembers the historical records of later generations. The casualties in the "Wanjialing Victory" also reached 30,000 to 40,000, and some divisions

There is even less than one regiment left. In addition, after nearly ten days of continuous fighting, the soldiers are exhausted. It is still unknown whether weapons and ammunition can be effectively replenished. However, the Japanese army still has planes that can airdrop supplies.

Carry out air strikes against them. Therefore, whether Xue Yue can really hold back the division is still a big question mark. It seems to be cutting off the connection between the Japanese division and the 104th Division. But in another way of thinking, it can also be said that the two Japanese armies

The whole battle situation seems to have entered a chain. If the Japanese army destroys the Nanshan Independent Brigade, the Japanese army will be relieved, and the Xueyue Army will be trapped. **If the division is eliminated, the 104th Division will be freed.

If the regiment does not retreat westward in time, it will be in danger. But in terms of time, the Japanese army can have more space, and if Jiang Haoran cannot defend Mahuiling tomorrow, he will only have one night left.

Because Jiang Haoran could not be found in the city, the search team began to spread outside the city.

"Look, he's sitting there!" Soon someone spotted Jiang Haoran. After an exclamation, everyone gathered around him. Chen Yihan even forgot about her shyness and flew into Jiang Haoran's arms like a swallow. Watching

Jiang Haoran suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction at everyone's concerned eyes. But the young and lively faces under the torch made him feel bitter. Maybe after tonight, these people may no longer be in this world.

exist on.

After feeling Jiang Haoran's body temperature, Chen Yihan finally felt relieved. Suddenly, as if remembering something, she jumped out of Jiang Haoran's arms, and a pair of hands began to perform routine inspections on Jiang Haoran's body.

Jiang Haoran caressed Chen Yihan's back and smiled: "Don't worry! Wife, I can't make a bullet that can hurt your husband."

Everyone started laughing, and Chen Yihan realized that her actions were too intimate, and her face suddenly felt hot. Although no one could see it under the firelight, it was still in full view of everyone, and as soon as Jiang Haoran opened his mouth, what followed

Before he could say anything shameful, he punched Jiang Haoran on the chest with a pink fist. He turned around and called "Little Tiger" and ran away. As if he was angry, he turned back and said to Jiang Haoran:

"I just hope that the little devil will quickly make this kind of bullet!" After saying this, she did not forget to make a playful face. Chen Yihan did not expect that this unintentional remark actually made her blame herself for the entire night.

Chen Yihan's expression made Jiang Haoran smile. As he watched Chen Yihan and Xiaohu leave amid the roar of laughter from everyone, Jiang Haoran stretched out his hands and made a downward movement towards the soldiers. Everyone understood that the brigade was sitting here.

They all had something to say, so they kept their mouths shut.

"Brothers, are you enjoying yourself today?" Jiang Haoran said loudly.

"Enjoyed! Enjoyed! Enjoyed!" Everyone waved their torches and shouted so loudly that the earth shook.

"But I want to tell you that tomorrow the Japanese will attack us from the north and the south, and there will be bombings from Japanese planes overhead. Are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid, if you die, your eggs will fall into the sky!"

"Yes, we have all died before, and if we are still afraid of a ball, the worst we can do is fight with the Japanese!"

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

Jiang Haoran could not help but be moved by the determination of the soldiers to resist the enemy with all their might: "Okay! You are all my good brothers, Jiang Haoran, and you are all tough men. I, Jiang Haoran, am blessed to be able to fight side by side with my brothers. If

Tomorrow we will not be able to defeat the Japanese, so I, Jiang Haoran, will bury the more than 100 kilograms here in Maling with my brothers. Even if we go underground, I will lead my brothers to kill the Japanese and fight the Japanese until the end!"

"Fight to the bitter end!"

"Fight to the bitter end!"

"Fight to the bitter end!"

The soldiers roared angrily one by one. Even after Jiang Haoran signaled everyone to stop, the echo of "fight bloody to the end" could still be heard in the valley.

"Order, the officers above the deputy battalion commander will stay for the meeting, and the other departments will go back immediately to eat and drink, waiting for the assignment of tasks!" Because Jiang Haoran still had very important things to do tonight, he could not waste any more time.

"Yes." After standing at attention and saluting, the platoon leaders of each company immediately commanded their teams and ran away.

Jiang Haoran whispered to Su Canwu again, and Su Canwu turned around and left quickly with the guard company.

The first military meeting of the Nanshan Independent Brigade was held on this battlefield littered with corpses. Except for Yin Donglai of the assault battalion who was absent because he was guarding the east gate, all the military chiefs of the other battalions were present, and of course the regimental commander Liu Dakun was indispensable.

.Although it was a meeting, Jiang Haoran was basically speaking alone. There have been five battles in the past two days. Jiang Haoran made the decision and they just executed it. Jiang Haoran also knew that this was not conducive to the improvement of the quality of his officers. At the same time,

It is also easy to breed their dependence and make them lose their insight into the battle situation. But now is not the time to reform them. The only way to do anything is to get out of this siege first.

Jiang Haoran explained his analysis of the battle situation in detail to let everyone understand the current situation so that they could be fully prepared for tomorrow's battle, and then issued military orders. Xu Biao's artillery battalion dragged at least 8 cannons into the woods

Hidden within a mile, build individual anti-artillery bunkers, and use trees and real cannons in the valley. Straw men put on soldiers' clothes and set up an artillery position for the Japanese planes to bomb. The machine gun battalion set up heavy machine gun positions at the commanding heights of the city.

To prevent low-altitude reconnaissance by Japanese aircraft. In addition to leaving warning firepower, other battalions dug out several serpentine trenches two meters wide and three meters deep at the junction of the city and the mountains tonight, clearing all the door panels and trees in the city.

Remove it and build it in several layers with sand, gravel and soil to blend in with the mountain as much as possible. Set up multiple entrances and exits. Once an enemy plane is discovered, the entire army must be able to enter the bunker immediately. At the same time, it was ordered that during Jiang Haoran's absence,
Chapter completed!
