Wang Zhizhong was under great pressure, and reinforcements were close at hand, but he couldn't get through. At this time, he already knew that Chief Li had transferred the 85th Army at the beginning, but Wang Zhonglian's 85th Army did not obey the orders of the commander-in-chief of the Fifth War Zone.

Although the two words "king" cannot be written in one stroke, it may be that the king really has something to say about the king. Wang Zhonglian's 85th army has been slowing down in Lincheng for nearly two days, but he just can't come.

Later, the Second Army came over, and without saying a word, they rolled up their sleeves and fucked the Japanese!

Unfortunately, after missing the best rescue opportunity, the Japanese have surrounded Tengxian.

The Japanese army had an advantage in military strength, and with planes and cannons in the sky, they were not afraid of the arrival of reinforcements. The Tang army, who thought that I was the best in the world, was hit by the Japanese. It was wrong. The Japanese were too powerful and were no match for fighting positions. So they quickly deviated from the left wing of the Japanese army and headed directly east of Yishan.

It doesn't matter if the 85th Army retreated, Lincheng would be in danger. If the vanguard of the Second Army had not arrived, Lincheng might have fallen into Xianteng County.

That really became a laughing stock in the battlefield in Xuzhou.

The Tang Army had no intention of rushing to Teng County to avoid the enemy's edge and attacking sideways. This was the Tang Army's tactics against the Japanese army, and Tang Keqin's explanation of this seemed very high-sounding.

This is a later story!

At this time, Li Delin no longer cared about punishing the 85th Army. Fortunately, the Second Army arrived in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. Although there is a canal barrier north of Xuzhou, once the Japanese army rushed over with one horse, the consequences would be disastrous.

By the evening of the 18th, the Teng County defenders had been on the verge of six days and five nights, much better than he expected, and it should be almost possible to break through.

But at this moment, even if you order to abandon the city and break through, it will become a very luxurious thing.

The Japanese army was blocked in Teng County for six days, and the already furious Japanese commanders would definitely not let the defenders of Teng County go, judging from the strength of their attack today.

They wanted to wipe out the defender of Teng County!

The Japanese army wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time they were establishing their authority!

Once the entire Teng County defenders were wiped out, the morale blow to all the officers and soldiers of the Fifth War Zone was a huge blow.

"Captain Li, No. 3's secret telegram." Li Delin faced the red and blue arrows strangled on the map, with a serious expression. There were few people talking in the combat room. Huang Xuecun walked over and said whispered.

In the fifth war zone, the number one figure was naturally Li Delin of the commander-in-chief, the number two was Chief of Staff Xu Yanmou, and the number three should be one of several deputy commanders-in-chief.

But in fact, this No. 3 is very mysterious. Few people know his true identity, and none of them have disclosed it to the public.

“…”

"If he takes action, there is some hope. Brother Decao asks for help several times and I am ashamed of the brothers of the Sichuan Army!" Li Delin said in tears.

"Duke."

"I can cooperate with his actions by calling back, and let Chi Fengcheng headquarters of the Second Army support him."

"Yes, should you prepare for Commander Sun in advance?"

"Well, it's OK to notify in advance. The question is, can the Teng County defenders last until tomorrow night?" Bai Jiansheng said calmly.

"Do you want to call Brother Decao?"

"It is no longer necessary that the headquarters of the 22nd Army is located in Lincheng. Can Sun Decao withdraw to Xuzhou?" Liu Weizhang also suggested at this time.

"I'm afraid Brother Decao may not be willing. More than half of the 20,000 Sichuan Army were trapped in Teng County. Is he, the commander-in-chief of the Sichuan Army, willing to abandon his robes and retreat to a safe place by himself?" Xu Yanmou shook his head.

"Then don't bring it back for now. With Sun Lianzhong's troops here, their safety can still be guaranteed."

"How is the situation in Linyi?"

"The Third Army suffered a great loss in Ju County, mainly because it had just arrived at the battlefield and the situation was unclear. Now the Japanese field brigade has occupied Ju County. The troops of the Pang Army's troops are resting in Tangtougou and Xianggongzhuang in the east of Linyi. With Zhang Xiuchen's 59th Army as a backing, it is impossible for the Japanese army to break through Linyi for the time being." A colonel senior executive replied.

"The Sakagaki Division is known for its fierce fighting. Zhang Xuchen and General Pang may not be able to stop the Japanese army when they join forces."

"Zhang Xunchen is also a long-time general of the Northwest Army. He knows that he has a great responsibility and will definitely live up to my responsibilities. He will definitely block the Sakagaki Division on the front line of Linyi!" Li Delin was very confident in Zhang Xunchen.

"What we worry most now is whether our troops on the southern line can block the Japanese troops heading north..."

Leng Feng is also worried about this problem.

Although in history, the Japanese army on the southern front was blocked south of the Huai River and had no ability to continue to move north, at that time, the Japanese army had only one main division with about 30,000 people.

Now the Japanese army's southern line corps have a total of more than 60,000 people, while there are only four armies on the southern line and mixed security forces. If some troops in northern Jiangsu are included, the full amount will be about 110,000 or 20,000.

Whether the Japanese army can be blocked south of the Huai River is really an unknown.

Of course, this is not impossible. As long as the Japanese army can be blocked south of the Huaihe River for more than half a month, it will be beneficial to the entire battle situation.

As the sun sets, the earth becomes silent again.

It was getting dark, and the battle between the Japanese defenders outside the city seemed to gradually stop, but there were sporadic gunfire and explosions.

The Japanese army besieging Teng County soon shot a few flares into the sky. The flares were dazzling, and the strong light cut through the darkness, illuminating the inside and outside of the city like daylight.

During this fierce battle, except for the difficult city wall being entrenched by a Japanese army, the rest of the county town was still in the hands of the defenders. The Japanese army fired tens of thousands of shells at Fuji County, and the defenders in the city also regained their colors and threw tens of thousands of grenades at the Japanese army.

The houses in the city have basically collapsed, with fire everywhere, black smoke rolling, and the burning corpses under the ruins smelled very pungent.

"Is there any living thing alive? I'll make a living..."

"Save me, save me..."

"Is there a living here?" An excited voice came.

"I can't save it anymore, hey..." I thought the officer came over and saw that he was pressing down on him. Under the ruins, there were at least several layers of bricks and stones pressed on them. With a slight movement, the space would probably collapse. I was afraid that it would be a corpse when the person was dug out. There was no way, they kept their energy and waited for the Japanese to fuck them after dawn!

"Give me some fun!" The brothers from Chuan Jun below may also know that it was not that the person above did not save him, but that there was no way to save him!

"Who are you here?" the officer asked after a long silence.

No one answered, the atmosphere was very depressing.

The officer gritted his teeth, pulled out the gun, aimed it under the gap, and suddenly pulled the trigger.

"Brother, my life is yours. You must bless me to kill more Japanese devils and wait, I'll come down to accompany you!" The officer knelt down and kowtowed three times to the brothers below!

Xiguan Power Plant and all the command centers at the first level of the division and brigade in Teng County are concentrated here. One can brainstorm, and the guards of various command organs can be concentrated and used.

"The enemy has entered the city, and the defense of the city has reached the last moment. From the early morning of the 13th to now, we have been holding Teng County for a full six days. Chief Li asked us to hold on for three days. We have completed the task. From now on, we must fight for ourselves and fight street battles with the enemy. We must never let the Japanese occupy Teng County easily!" Wang Zhizhong announced loudly.

"Commander-in-chief, since we have completed the task, is it time to make a breakthrough plan?"

"Yes, I have to leave some hope for our troops!

Wang Zhizhong also wanted to retreat and break through, but now there are Japanese troops on all sides of Tengxian. Even if they can rush out, it may be difficult to get rid of the Japanese army's pursuit.

"Reinforcements, where are the reinforcements?"

"There are some reinforcements, but they were blocked by the Japanese army. General Chi Fengcheng, the 31st Division of the Second Army, fought fiercely with the 63rd Japanese Regiment in Guanqiaotai this afternoon..."

"In other words, as long as we break through the Japanese army and rush to Guanqiao, we will be saved!" someone said in surprise.

"It's not that simple." Chief of Staff Zhao Weibin smiled bitterly.

"Commander-in-chief, are we fighting or defending? In your words, brothers, listen to you. Even if you fight against Hitoshi Prefecture, it would be worth killing one more Japanese!"

"Yes, kill one enough to earn one, kill two and earn one!"

"Xuanwu, what do you think?" Zhang Xuanwu was the Teng County City Defense Commander appointed by Wang Zhizhong himself. Zhang Xuanwu was basically in charge of the battle in Teng County. He, the commander-in-chief, was only responsible for logistics support.

"Commander-in-chief, if we continue to fight, we may be wiped out." Zhang Xuanwu said heavy.

"Then the only way to break through?"

"Commander-in-chief, even if we break through, from which direction we break through, and who will come to the rear of the palace? We have such serious injuries. We cannot leave these brothers behind!"

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief, our Sichuan Army has died since leaving Sichuan to fight against the war, and we can no longer leave our brothers."

"If you want to break through, the best time tonight is. While Xiguan Railway Station is still in our hands, the Japanese army has not yet figured out our reality and took the opportunity to break through from Ximen..."

"Not tonight!" Wang Zhizhong shook his head.

"Why not?"

"If we break through tonight, then the Japanese army will take the opportunity to capture Tengxian. The Japanese army will join forces to go south tomorrow. Think about it, is there a strong city defense like ours in Lincheng?"

"The commander-in-chief means at least it will have to wait for the Second Army to announce the fortifications of Lincheng."

"If the entire front is defeated because of our breakthrough, then we are the sinners of the country and the sinners of the nation. Do you understand?" Wang Zhizhong said with red eyes. He also wanted to break through, but he could not cover himself even if he broke through, but he also had to take into account the robes behind him.

"But we can no longer hold on!"

"Persevere for another day, and in one day we will break through!" A sudden voice suddenly rang in the combat room.

"Captain Tang?"

The captain of the team sent by the First Honor Division to assist in defending the city and asked the Sichuan Army to fight street battles?

"I have received the order to go up the peak. Tomorrow night, troops will pick us up outside the city to break through. Commander-in-chief Wang, if you agree, I will reply immediately."

"Up peak, which peak is your peak peak?"

"We are all fighting in the same trench, how many more will there be a summit?"

"If it was Chief Li's order, why not directly issue it to our commander-in-chief?" A questioning voice sounded.

"Breakthrough is a top-secret plan, so naturally we cannot communicate with ordinary secret telegrams to prevent the Japanese army from intercepting and deciphering. At that time, our breakthrough will be like a death."

"Why should we trust you?"

"You may not believe us, but you should believe that my upsurge will not let our team die in vain, right?" Tang Xiaoying asked back.

"this……"

"How many troops are there?"

"I don't know either, but not too many, it's definitely the most elite." Tang Xiaoying said.

"Weibin, Xuanwu, you see, can we hold on for a day?"

"The food and ammunition are sufficient, thanks to the honorary first division, who added a batch of them to us before the war. Otherwise, we would not have persisted now. The most grenades are there, and there are eighty boxes of medicines. We no longer have medicines on hand. Tomorrow, we may not even have enough gauze. There are about three thousand soldiers who can fight..."

"Street fighting, only street fighting is the only way we can persist!"

"That's right, if we put the Japanese in and attack, their planes and cannons will not be able to play their advantages, but we will use the terrain and terrain to deal with them and keep them for a day, it will be no problem!"

"That's it. Everyone in the division headquarters and brigade headquarters participated in the battle. If there were no guns, they could fire two grenades and a large blade. Isn't this 10th Division known as the steel army? Our Sichuan Army is made of granite. If he dares to come in, he will shatter his steel teeth!" Wang Zhizhong said gritting his teeth.
