my bright sword career

Chapter 350 Cannot be withdrawn

"Yes!" Tang Huaiyuan sighed helplessly.

The Third Army has only two divisions, the Seventh and No.12. Among them, the strange Twelfth Division is the main force of the Third Army, and it is the strongest in terms of strength and combat effectiveness.

It would be easy for the twelfth division to withdraw, but I'm afraid he can't guarantee how long it will last if the seventh division goes up.

Tang Huaiyuan's embarrassment was also noticed by Brigadier Chen. As one of the three heroes of Whampoa, he was so observant that he understood Tang Huaiyuan's embarrassment with a slight turn of his head.

He immediately smiled and said: "Now Guojialing is surrounded by two divisions of the Japanese army. It is indeed difficult for a single division to withstand the crazy Japanese attack. If you don't mind, I can transfer a regiment to Guojialing to assist you. I wonder what Tang Chief wants? "

Tang Huaiyuan showed joy at first, if he could have one more regiment of troops, it would be of great benefit to Guojialing's defense, but then he shook his head slowly.

"Brother Chen's kindness is appreciated by me, but it is not easy for you now. Your Eighth Route Army has only four regiments, and it is already stretched to resist the attack of the 36th Division. If there is one less regiment, there is no need to fight this battle." .”

Seeing what Tang Huaiyuan said, Brigadier Chen stopped talking. It wasn't that he didn't want to help, but what Tang Huaiyuan said was the truth. Since yesterday morning, the 36th Division has launched a fierce attack on Gaojiazhuang. Li Yunlong and another regiment are Fighting fiercely with them, just now he has ordered Ding Wei's new regiment to go to Gaojiazhuang to prepare for the battle at any time, and now he only has a regiment's reserve team in his hands, once he uses his hands, he really has no troops Mobilized.

The surrounding staff officers didn't dare to intervene when they heard the two officers' discussion. Everyone looked a little anxious. They didn't expect that the strength of the troops would start to be tight on the second day of the war.

What... the Liantai militia?
Are you kidding, Guojialing and Gaojiazhuang still occupy a favorable terrain, Yangping Town is purely flat, the difficulty of defense is much higher than that of Guojialing and Gaojiazhuang, and their troops are the least, no matter how thick-skinned they are I didn't dare to hit the idea of ​​the Liantai militia.

Just when everyone was in a dilemma, Gao Hongming suddenly dropped the cigarette butt and slapped his thigh: "I have a solution!"

"What?" Everyone looked at him in unison.

Gao Hongming looked at the two of them: "Mr. Tang and Mr. Chen, our military strength is indeed relatively tight now, but Mr. He has it there. You must know that there are more than [-] troops stationed in Xi'an."

Tang Huaiyuan smiled wryly: "Of course we know that there are troops in Xi'an, but after all, they can't be solved from far away... Eh... I understand..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately exchanged glances with Brigadier Chen, both of them had surprise in their eyes, and they said in unison: "Send a plane to transport them here..."

…………

Xi'an First Theater Command

"What did you say, the three of Tang Huaiyuan jointly sent a telegram requesting us to send reinforcements and airlift them to Yangping Town, Qiuyang County?"

In the war room, He Yingqin looked at the telegram in his hand with astonishment.

"Yes, sir."

Guo Jiqiao, Chief of Staff of the First Theater Zone, nodded. According to the telegram they sent, Gao Hongming had two transport squadrons under his command, equipped with 24 C-47 transport planes, and each plane could transport the troops of six companies at a time. Calculated in three to five batches, six to nine battalions can be transported in one day, which can greatly alleviate their plight of insufficient troops.

"Six to nine battalions a day?"

Pang Bingxun on the side not only widened his eyes.

"My dear, isn't that the strength of the two regiments?"

As an old-fashioned soldier, Pang Bingxun has long been accustomed to the regular formation of troops, using a large number of transport planes to send the troops of the two regiments from hundreds of kilometers away across countless mountains and mountains to their destinations in one day. It's the first time I've heard of it.

Although Sun Lianzhong, Li Tiejun, Sun Tongxuan and others were also extremely surprised, they couldn't help thinking about it afterwards, calculating the feasibility of doing so in their minds.

In the end, He Yingqin asked the most critical question: "Well, we have plenty of troops, but the biggest problem now is that the Japanese will not just watch us airlift troops to the front line, they will definitely send planes to intercept them. Then how to ensure the safety of the transport plane?"

"Gao Hongming said, please rest assured about this." Guo Jiqiao replied: "He will send no less than two squadrons of fighter planes to escort, and they will do their best to ensure the safety of the transport plane."

"What if we don't agree?" Li Tiejun asked suddenly.

Guo Jiqiao was silent for a while, "Gao Hongming said that if we don't agree to send reinforcements, they can only find a way to break through and enter Shanxi, and then wait for the opportunity to return to Liantai County."

"Go back to Liantai County...how is this possible?"

This is the thought that popped up in everyone's mind.

Or else people are greedy animals that are never satisfied. Ten days and a half months ago, their greatest wish was to be able to safely withdraw the Zhongtiaoshan defenders. Even if they could not withdraw all of them, most of them could come out. Half is also good.

But now, their thoughts have changed.

Now the tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers who entered Zhongtiao Mountain have been attracted to Qiuyang County by the Liantai Militia, the Third Army and the Eighth Route Army.

Especially after Gao Hongming and the others wiped out the Ninth Brigade of the Japanese Army two days ago, more and more people in the First Theater Command had the idea of ​​"I can do it myself".

It is precisely because Gao Hongming and others are required to hold back the Japanese army in the First War Zone, so facing their threat, they can only choose to accept it helplessly.

In the end, it was He Yingqin who made the final decision, and the supporting troops were drawn in turn from the troops present, and no one could escape...

Xinyang Village, Yangping Township
This is an important support point for Yangping Town's defense line, and the fifth battalion and third company of the Liantai militia stationed here.

Since yesterday, the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army has launched seven attacks here, but they were all repelled by three companies.

For this reason, the commander of the 213th Regiment, Kawahara Youbing, called the first captain in charge of the attack, scolded him, and ordered him to take Xinyang Village three days before the afternoon.

"Your Excellency, Captain, it's not that the warriors in our brigade didn't do their best, but that the Chinese people's firepower is too fierce, and they still have several permanent positions, without the cover of heavy artillery, there is no way for us infantry to take them down!" Captain Asada Bunta Shaozuo said, pointing in front of him, indignantly.

At this time, Bunta Asada was wounded, and even though he was wrapped in layers of gauze, blood continued to ooze out, dyeing the gauze dark red.

Following the direction he pointed, it was an open area. Several 1000-type chariots emitting black smoke and corpses all over the place all told the cruelty of the battle. [-] meters ahead, several concrete and In the shooting holes of the bunker built with steel bars, tongues of flame were constantly pouring out.

　Or how to say that if a person is unlucky, drinking cold water will stuff his teeth.

　　My mother caught a cold and was hospitalized with pneumonia. After I had a fever the day before yesterday, I just ordered today. Today, my daughter-in-law and the eldest son of the family were both recruited. The body temperature of both mothers was 38.2. difficult.

　　I really want to cry.
