    Although Yang Zhen was quite dissatisfied with the petty attitude of the logistics department and the style of his mother-in-law.  But when time was tight and the situation was critical, especially when the main person in charge of the logistics department was absent, he didn't have that much free time to hold anyone accountable.

    With no time to pursue the blame, Yang Zhen, adhering to his usual work style of cutting through the mess quickly, immediately asked Ye Chao to collect all the more than 10,000 rounds of ammunition and more than 400 freshly unboxed grenades seized in Xingtan.  Transferred to the Secret Service.  These ammunitions are already the maximum amount that Yang Zhen can maneuver on hand.

    After all, after the exhaustion of the night battle, the troops around Yang Zhen did not have much ammunition.  The rear guard battalion fought fiercely with the infiltration troops of the 144th Division on the Piling line, and the Xingtan troops blocked the battle, both of which consumed a lot of ammunition.  Especially grenades, now the average is less than one per person.

    However, while Yang Zhen did his best to allocate some ammunition to the special agent regiment, he also used three Czech-style light machine guns among the five light machine guns in the rear guard battalion.  As well as the three French light machine guns and one Czech light machine gun that the guard company had captured in the encounter between Piling and Xingtan, they were all transferred to the special agent group.

    After temporary allocation and the more than 2,000 rounds of ammunition seized at the Maduqiao front line, the remaining four companies of the special agent group finally had relatively sufficient ammunition.  Although grenades and machine gun bullets are still somewhat in short supply.  But it's better than letting the secret service team chew it with their teeth.

    After the special agent team received the temporarily allocated bullets and set off, Yang Zhen could only curse the headless head of the logistics department in his heart to vent his anger.  Now is not the time to pursue this matter.  Besides, no one is here, so what's the use of pursuing it?  If you want to be held accountable, you have to wait until you meet with the military.

    Although a night of fierce fighting and two days of marching made everyone feel quite tired.  But under the severe situation, no one expressed any objection to Yang Zhen's decision.  Because in everyone's eyes, the distance of the urgent march to Sanhuali is not a big problem.  For this army, which is accustomed to guerrilla warfare in the mountains, entering the mountains means safety.

    ??????????????????????????? At this time, the entire army's severely wounded and lightly wounded who cannot walk have been placed on the spot, and non-combatants have set off first along with the main force.  This unit can be said to be the most capable of the original Wannan units, and it can be said to be lightly armed to the end.  In addition to the weapons, ammunition, and some dry food carried by the entire army, there are only two radios that can barely be called a burden.

    The decision to place the severely injured who were unable to move on the spot was the most difficult decision since arriving in southern Anhui for Yang Zhen, who had repeatedly emphasized that he was not allowed to abandon a wounded person during the Anti-Japanese War.  Yang Zhen knew very well that it was said that they were resettled on the spot, but this was just a nice way of saying it.  Everyone knows that resettling them in place is actually equivalent to abandoning them.

    Although this decision is almost cruel to those seriously injured, it is also a helpless choice.  A seriously injured person requires at least two, or even four, people to carry him.  More than 50 seriously injured people who could not move required more than two companies of troops to carry them.  If the few troops at hand were all converted into stretcher companies, how could we fight this battle?  How to break through?

    Fortunately, what gave Yang Zhen some peace of mind was that the enemy he faced was neither the Japanese army who took pleasure in killing prisoners, nor the brutal Ma Jiajun in the northwest.  This is where the troops in southern Anhui have worked and fought for a long time. It is not the Northeast where the Japanese and puppet troops are tightly controlled, and the mass base is much better.

    In addition, among the wounded, there are not many cadres, and most of them are ordinary soldiers.  Among these warriors, there are many from Wannan.  With this prerequisite, if they are left to settle on the spot, they may suffer a little more punishment, but their life safety is basically guaranteed.

    After placing the wounded, the troops were completely light-equipped in accordance with Yang Zhen's order.  Liu Biesheng organized all the seven light machine guns he transferred and the four light machine guns on hand into the first echelon, and all the machine gunners hung all the light machine guns on their chests.  As long as they encounter the enemy during the movement to the mountains, these machine guns will use intensive firepower at the first time to open a channel for the follow-up troops.

    After the first echelon of the special agent team responsible for attacking the front station set off, Yang Zhen personally directed the follow-up second echelon. The teaching team, which was also prepared for combat, was also configured in the same way.  The bayonet is loaded, the grenade safety cover is unscrewed, and a Soviet rotary machine gun and two Belgian light machine guns are all hung on the chest.

    Almost at the same time that the first echelon set off, the covering troops commanded by Lee Myung-bak concentrated all the firepower left by Yang Zhen and retreated to the Zhexi Bridge line. They found that they were forcibly breaking through the mountains to the east and were trying to use firepower.  The 40th Division, which blocked the mountain pass, engaged in a fierce exchange of fire.

    Under Lee Myung-bak¡¯s desperate cover regardless of the consumption of ammunition, the troops in southern Anhui who were still in the last gap in the encirclement of the third theater area passed through the narrow stretch of the Madu Bridge line as quickly as possible.?Plains.  Everyone remembered what Yang Zhen said before setting off, "Entering the mountainous area means victory" and they ran with all their might.

    "Compared with the follow-up troops, the special agent group that opened the way in front used the concentrated firepower as much as possible to fight fiercely with all the small enemy forces in the front that tried to intercept.  Fortunately, most of the enemy troops on the entire Maqiaodu front line have withdrawn south to the Zhexi Bridge front line. The enemy troops remaining at the commanding heights on both sides of the mountain pass in front of the Madu Bridge front line are only one company of the Engineer Battalion directly under the 40th Division.

    Originally stationed at Maduqiao Pass, he was sent to build fortifications after the battle started to prevent the front line of defense from being breached and prepare a second line of defense.  The company of the engineering battalion did not even think about the opponent's actions. At this time, they did not know that they were the last line of defense in the blockade formed by the third theater of war against the Yunling Wannan army station.

    Although they still didn¡¯t know that they had become the last blockade, this engineer company, which was temporarily converted into infantry, still tried to use its advantage of controlling the commanding heights to block the breakout troops at the mountain pass.  But he didn't expect that as soon as he met his opponent, he was hit by a dense hail of bullets, with a large number of grenades mixed in.

    As a man who didn¡¯t even have many weapons, his job was to build fortifications, but he didn¡¯t expect that he would be affected by changes in the battlefield situation.  And suddenly it was pushed to the forefront of the entire trend, and this engineer company was temporarily supposed to be infantry.  Although he tried to resist when the secret service group came up.

    "It's just that engineers are engineers after all, and they are good at building fortifications.  But without any field training, it was beyond their ability to have only half of them with guns stop a force that was about to kill Red Eye.  Although the defenders on the front line of Zhexi Bridge desperately tried to support them with firepower, their limited combat effectiveness was still limited.

    Before he could even recover from the heavy firepower of the Secret Service Corps, the bayonet of the Secret Service Corps had already reached under his nose.  Although there was terrain that could be used, the engineer company that was assigned important responsibilities still did not persist for too long, and the two crucial commanding heights at the mountain pass were lost one after another.  The change of hands of the commanding heights at the mountain pass also meant the collapse of the last blockade built around the southern Anhui army in the third theater.

    After using whirlwind firepower to defeat the stubborn resistance of one company of the 119th Regiment in front of the mountain pass, Liu Biesheng left the political commissar behind and led three companies to continue the assault eastward.  He commanded a reinforced company and used two light machine guns to immediately seize the high ground on both sides of the mountain pass to cover the follow-up troops entering the mountain.

    Yang Zhen, who personally directed the second and third echelons to enter the mountain, nodded with satisfaction when he saw Liu Biesheng using the enemy's fortifications to build a simple position and controlling the troops on the commanding heights on both sides of the mountain pass.

    After passing through the plains and entering the mountains, Yang Zhen rejected Feng Dafei and several regiment cadres' suggestions to let the troops take a rest.  Without waiting for follow-up cover, Lee Myung-bak arrived and commanded the troops to continue to retreat quickly at the speed of forced march toward the northeast in the direction of the main force's retreat.

    It was not until the troops entered the deep mountains and old forests of the Huangshan Mountains south of Gaoshan Dang and north of Songjiatan that a large number of stragglers appeared, that Yang Zhen ordered the troops to rest.  However, except for the sent security troops, the rest of the troops can rest. As the commander, Yang Zhen cannot and cannot rest.

    After ordering the Communications Section to set up a radio station to communicate with the military, Yang Zhen climbed up a hill in the northeast with a telescope and carefully observed the surrounding situation.  Looking at the surrounding environment with high mountains and dense forests, Yang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.  At least for a short time, the troops were safe.

    When he personally deployed the security troops at several selected commanding heights in the surrounding area, and also arranged a combination of light and dark security posts, Yang Zhen, who had just come down the mountain, saw people lying staggering all over the hillside, tired and tired.  The soldier who didn't want to eat the dry food could only smile bitterly without saying anything.

    After coming down the mountain, Yang Zhen did not blame the exhausted warrior.  It is different from the mechanism where short periods of time can be used to intersperse rests.  Since its departure from Yunling, the special agent group, which serves as the military's security force, has hardly had any rest.  First, they covered the military operations, and then they rushed to Niulanling.

    After a day of fierce fighting with the 79th Division, they retreated in accordance with the order.  On the entire Xingtan battlefield, the one who is the most tired, the one who walks the most, and who is probably the most hungry is this secret service group.  It is not easy for these cadres and soldiers to persist until now without falling behind or becoming deserters.

    After Yang Zhen came down the mountain, he said to Feng Dafei, who had been following him: "Old Feng, it's not okay for soldiers to go without eating like this. Let the cadres of each company take the lead and make sure to eat. We don't know how long we will have to walk later.  , when can I rest? It¡¯s not okay if I can¡¯t recover my strength.¡±

    Having said this, Yang Zhen paused for a moment and then said: "Old Feng, the situation is tense, I can only give you some advice.?? hours of rest time.  Let everyone hold on, we are still too close to the enemy here.  After the third war zone failed to pounce, it was bound to pursue it with all its strength.  This is the remnant of Huangshan Mountain. Although the mountains are high and the forests are dense, the room for maneuver is still too narrow.  "

    "The most important thing is that we must join the main force as soon as possible. Otherwise, once the enemy forces in the second guerrilla zone react, we will be trapped here. I also know that comrades are very tired now, but the current situation has not been resolved.  Fundamental improvement is far from enough to allow us to take a break, so comrades should persevere.¡±
