Around one o'clock in the morning, the battle on the north bank once again entered a fierce stage. The Japanese army learned the lesson from the last time and did not rush the troops in a swarm. Instead, they sent out charges one brigade after another. In this way, although Gao Yongxiang and the others endured a single pressure It was light, but in the face of the Japanese army's continuous attack, the soldiers' physical strength and fighting will were put to a more severe test.
Seeing brothers falling or being injured around him every minute, Gao Yongxiang was heartbroken. He wanted to launch a counterattack several times in order to seek a hearty duel and just die in battle. However, as a member of the North Shore Army, The supreme commander, but he had to suppress the irritability in his heart in order to maintain the stability of the entire army. Thirty minutes into the battle, he had already seen that the reason why the little devil resorted to such a blunt knife to cut flesh was to add fuel to the fire. The tactics should be to worry about our own artillery units on the south bank being covered and bombarded.
Is this really the case? Yoshio Jotsuka definitely doesn't think so. He is actually just consciously consuming the ammunition of the military army. In his opinion, facing an automatic rifle that can fire about thirty rounds of bullets at a time, our own side cannot The superiority in military strength has become an opportunity for the opponent to expand the results of the battle. Keep a thin front and continue to consume the enemy's ammunition. This is what smart people should do. As long as the enemy's ammunition is consumed, by then, with the help of With the numerical advantage, he can complete the victory in one blow.
Because of Nishio, the commander of the 2nd Army, Jotsuka has actually lost absolute control over the 10th Division, but now, he can at least use the regiment in his hand to realize his ideas.
In the center of the river, Ye Zhao looked at the battle scene a thousand meters away. The muscles on his face could not help but beat. If possible, he hoped to turn back the time so that he could re-enact it. What a huge oversight in reconnaissance, Jiangbei A large number of Japanese soldiers appeared, but he was not aware of it. It was embarrassing, but what was most difficult for him to accept was that of the nearly 3,000 soldiers who had crossed the river, there were now less than 1,000 left... He tightened his hands on the submachine gun and forced himself to control his emotions so that he could calmly look at everything that happened in front of him.
Chi Guanxing lived up to his expectations. Although he didn't know how he did it, he brought nearly thirty fishing boats, and within an hour. This was enough. One look at the performance of Chi Guanxing and his men. Knowing that they had no formal training, Ye Zhao had no intention of incorporating them into his team at first.
However, Chi Guanxing took the initiative to bring it up: "Sir, can you take us with you? The brothers have had enough of the days when the Japanese occupied Jiujiang. Everyone now wants to avenge the Japanese. The little devils can kill the people of Jiujiang." The harm is not light."
In fact, in the minds of the people of Jiujiang, Chi Guanxing and the others were once a scourge. However, recently, as Chi Guanxing and the others joined the ranks of fighting the Japanese, the generous people seemed to have forgotten what they had done in the past, and began to treat them as if they had forgotten what they had done in the past. They treat them as their own people. Of course, this is because the misdeeds Chi Guanxing and the others have committed are not serious and they have not lost their principles.
Ye Zhao only has about a thousand people around him now. Because he has to leave about 400 people to guard and operate the cannons, he can only take about 600 people across the river. Of course he hopes that Chi Guanxing and the others can join them, but he doesn't. He was optimistic about the combat power of these people. What he was worried about was that if these people were unable to adapt to the battlefield environment or were even defeated in a battle, they would not only be unable to help, but would actually shake the morale of the army. He thought about it seriously and asked Chi Guanxing Said: "Captain Chi, is this your personal opinion or the opinions of brothers? Let me tell you the truth, the Japanese troops on the other side are far more powerful than us. We have a tough battle to fight on this trip. Maybe there will be no tomorrow for us people." Already."
Ye Zhao's words were serious. Chi Guanxing was surprised and hesitated for a moment.
Seeing his hesitation, Ye Zhao did not dare to take him, and said: "You just stay here to help take care of the cannons. The guerrillas are still suitable for working behind enemy lines. Well, I will send a letter to the headquarters about your donation of cannons." As explained, your reward will be indispensable by then, Captain Chi, see you soon."
Ye Zhao's words were actually very polite. However, Chi Guanxing, who was very accustomed to martial arts, found it very unpleasant. He shouted at that time: "Mr. Ye, you are looking down on us. We None of these brothers is a coward. Brothers, we have been cowardly for a while. This time, let’s be tough. What do you say?”
"We listen to big brother (captain)."
"Well, as expected of me, Mr. Chi's brother, Mr. Ye, you see, this is the opinion of all of us."
Ye Zhao glanced at Chi Guanxing and his brothers. In the night, he saw that although these people had messy equipment and various clothes, their waists were straight. He felt hot in his heart and said: "Since it is everyone's opinion, , that’s okay, but Captain Chi, war is no child’s play, and when we get to the other side later, you all have to listen to me.”
"That's for sure."
The members of Chi Guanxing's guerrilla team, including Chi Guanxing himself, were all capable of maneuvering boats. Ye Zhao did not expect that because Chi Guanxing and the others joined, their speed of crossing the river was greatly increased, and they actually reached the other side in about 20 minutes. ,
"Boom." Not far away, a grenade exploded. In the flash of fire, a student was lifted up by the air wave, and then fell heavily into the water, splashing out a big wave.
Flares went up from time to time, illuminating the river near the battle as bright as day. Several guerrillas who were manning the boat saw that the water on the riverside had turned red. On the river, there were many corpses of cadets floating on the river. Their bodies were His face instantly turned pale,
Anyone can say harsh words, but to actually do it requires extraordinary courage. Even after seeing the tragic scenes on the battlefield, Chi Guanxing would inevitably feel his mouth go dry and his heart beat violently, "Fuck, this time What a big loss." He thought to himself, and couldn't help but regret his recklessness on the other side.
The reason why Chi Guanxing wanted to join the crossing force enthusiastically was that since a high-ranking official like Ye Zhao, a lieutenant general, dared to cross the river, it meant that the Xuebing army on the other side must have an advantage. So, if he followed him, Once he won, he had to share some of the credit. He never thought that Ye Zhao's trip was not to reap the fruits of victory, but because he wanted to live and die with his brothers in the north because of guilt.
Ye Zhao stubbornly believed that the reason why the troops on the north bank were in such a dangerous situation was entirely because of his command errors. Therefore, no matter how Jiang Hongming and Chang Zhiguo persuaded him, he had to personally lead the troops to support him. In his heart , in fact, I have long been prepared to die in battle,
