    The three telegrams from Chairman Chiang, Chen Cheng and Gu Zhutong not only required Leng Xin to hold on to the line from Huangli to Dong'an for three days, but also reported the enemy situation on the east and north fronts provided by Master Chen.

    Number of people, numbers, equipment, firepower everything is available, and even the most confidential combat plans and attack routes are clear.

    Leng Xin made full use of this information. After receiving the telegram, he immediately ordered the third detachment of "Loyalty and Justice to Rescue the Japanese" to go out overnight to Houyu, not far from the Japanese, to destroy roads and bridges.  At the same time, the 52nd Division and the 9th Security Brigade were ordered to rush to the junction of Houyu and Xiaxi to build fortifications and set up the first line of defense.  Buy time for the 40th Division, the 33rd Independent Brigade and the Baoan Yizong who are gathering in Huangli and Dong'an.

    Roads and bridges were completely destroyed, and it was already commonplace for the leader of the Gaoqiao Brigade.  In fact, for most of the past few years, in addition to continuously clearing out the "Chongqing Army", "Loyalty Savior", "Jiang Kang" and other miscellaneous troops with various signs in the defense zone, he also arrested people everywhere to build bridges and roads.  .

    Moreover, he came well-prepared this time. The direct engineering team was fully loaded and followed the search team to build bridges when encountering water and clear roads through mountains. Although some precious time was wasted, he still arrived at 3:24 in the afternoon.  Xia Xi has always been controlled by the enemy.

    "Bangbangbang"

    The battle started as expected. Mountain artillery, mortars and grenade launchers dropped shells like hailstones onto the battlefield.

    Everyone in the trenches is gasping for air. The dead will be buried in this land forever, and those who are alive will continue to pick up the swords and guns in their hands.  They are all children of the Chinese nation, ordinary and simple farmers. When the iron hoofs of the Japanese invaders trampled on their country, ravaged their sisters, and massacred their compatriots, they were no longer simple farmers who were allowed to be slaughtered.  The blood began to rush, one after another fell down, and one after another grabbed the sword and gun in their hands, without hesitation.

    Zhang Yifeng's eyes were a little moist. This time, more than fifty brothers fell down.  There were fewer and fewer people. He randomly wrapped the wound on his arm and rearranged his defense line. He didn't know how many more attacks he would have to withstand in the future. Instead, he hoped that the Japanese army would launch an attack as soon as possible.  Because it might be a relief to light them up, but he couldn't bear to watch his brothers fall one by one again.

    "Anti-gun!"

    With a hoarse cry, the sharp sound of artillery roared in the air and rushed towards the position.  Before Zhang Yifeng could get down, a cannonball exploded in front of his eyes. He didn't even hear the explosion of the cannonball. A wave of air pushed him into the air and landed heavily in a foxhole.

    "Sir, sir, the kid retreated and the company commander was killed. Now there are only more than a hundred people left on the battlefield. What should we do? I thought you also"

    When he woke up again more than ten minutes later, his mind was still buzzing. When he saw a brother crying, he immediately grabbed the rifle at hand and roared: "Why are you crying? I'm not dead yet!"  Brothers, hurry up and repair the fortifications and notify the reserve team to get ready."

    After finishing speaking, he stumbled onto the battlefield, and the remaining brothers looked at him silently.  He knew that as long as he survived, the brothers would not give up, so he tried to make himself walk more steadily so that the brothers could see him.

    After two consecutive attacks under the cover of artillery failed, when the group headquarters ordered the third attack, Lieutenant Ikeda deliberately called together some experienced veterans to discuss the upcoming attack.

    "Does the enemy have a large group of troops?" Lieutenant Ikeda asked.

    "It's hard to judge, but there are at least four to five hundred people," said Captain Touse, "it's quite a lot."

    Since the second formation of the 11th mixed brigade of the **, the infantry brigade directly under the ** has been invincible. It has never encountered a situation like today. After thinking about it, Lieutenant Ikeda suddenly turned around and shouted: "Hey, Signal Corps, go  Ask, what is the origin of this enemy army?¡±

    "Hi."

    After a while, the communications soldier ran back and said, "Report to the squadron leader, the phone said that although this enemy force is not a regular army, but a security force, it has just received a batch of equipment some time ago and it is relatively sophisticated."

    "Security forces? Better equipped?"

    Lieutenant Ikeda looked at the cars speeding on the road, as well as the imperial troops and equipment arriving by car, and couldn't help but smile, "Whether it is the regular army or the security forces, this enemy group has missed the opportunity to break through. Their fate is  It¡¯s already in the hands of the emperor.¡±

    As he was talking, there was a roar in the sky, and a reconnaissance plane passed overhead.

    The soldiers waved their military caps towards the plane and talked loudly.

    "Planes have also been dispatched. It seems that they are determined to annihilate this enemy force."

    "Remember Jiang Jishi was in the houseShan told his generals that Japanese aircraft were all domestically produced and there was nothing to be afraid of.  This means that all China Air Force aircraft are imported.  Imported goods are of course better than domestic ones.  Haha I haven't seen a Chinese Air Force plane for a long time.  "

    More and more reinforcements are coming, and the enemy forces on the opposite side are being surrounded more and more tightly.  They just surrounded them tightly and were not in a hurry to attack.  The appearance of aircraft further exacerbated the wavering of enemy morale.

    "Look, the enemy is building fortifications."

    "We want to hold on, but I'm afraid it's too late to dig fortifications now."

    "That's right, one square meter of ordinary soil, that is, soil that is neither soft nor hard, can be dug four to five meters deep by the Japanese engineers who have undergone strict training and have the best physical strength in four hours. People without training cannot dig one meter deep.  It¡¯s normal. I don¡¯t believe that the enemy on the other side has undergone more rigorous civil work training than the Japanese soldiers.¡±

    "Well, when building fortifications, it's not just about physical strength. There are also other issues such as coordination. It's not as simple as you think."

    "Anyway, let them finish digging. This is a hilly area, and there are rocks underneath. If we dig like this, the fortifications will not be formed, and the soldiers may die of exhaustion. After the digging is completed, a gas bomb will pass through, and the tunnel will be filled with rocks."  People will all come to the ground. The deeper you dig, the more effective the gas bomb will be. "We'll see."

    "Look, those bastards are digging up the dust very quickly. They seem to be quite motivated."

    "It's not a question of lack of motivation. Bunker construction is a science, and it's not as simple as digging soil. The bunker construction methods of infantry, combat, vehicle, and artillery are different. Even so, position construction must rely on the guidance of professional engineers, and the technical part  , it must be done by the engineers themselves. Generally speaking, the camouflage and concealment of infantry bunkers are more important than the concealment. The position cannot be strong without side defense. Only by combining side defense with obstacles can the damage be increased.  , digging fortifications under our noses, with no disguise and no side defense, I really don¡¯t understand what the commander is thinking. "

    "Perhaps I was deeply impressed by the Imperial Army's fortifications in the past, so I started to study them."

    After 20 minutes, the sound of artillery gradually became sparse, and an order came from the group headquarters, requiring all squadrons to act at the same time to capture the frontal enemy in one fell swoop.

    At the same time, the observation post set up in front of the 9th Security Brigade also sent a semaphore to the position.

    "Come on!" Following the order from deputy brigade commander Zhang Yifeng, the brothers walked out of the bunker.

    No one spoke but everyone had a determined look on their face. They might not be able to survive this time, but no one was afraid.  This time, a platoon was left as a reserve team. He knew that the next step was a real life and death battle, and he had to find a way to allow the brothers to hold on for a while longer.

    The little devil had already started to climb up cautiously, and there were densely packed yellow figures. This time, the number of Japanese troops participating in the attack increased again, and it was estimated that there would be a large group.  The deputy brigade commander looked around and saw that the brothers were very calm and moved the Japanese troops closer before attacking, so that the threat of Japanese artillery fire would not be so great.

    Nearly 100 meters away, you can clearly hear the Japanese breathing.

    "Snapped!"

    Zhang Yifeng fired the first shot, and a Japanese soldier rolled backwards with the sound of the gunshot.  In an instant, all kinds of weapons on the position fired together, and the sound of gunfire broke the tranquility before dusk.  The Japanese no longer bent down to be careful, but straightened up and rushed upward with strange screams.

    The screams of bullets, the explosions of grenades, and the sound of shrapnel cutting open human blood vessels were endless. Both sides were shooting desperately, grenades kept flying downwards, and there were already yellow and orange corpses in front of the position.  , many of them have been blown away.

    But there were still Japanese soldiers charging upwards from behind. They even stumbled over the bodies of their own soldiers and got up covered in blood. They still shot upwards and charged upwards with all their might.  The remaining three Maxim heavy machine guns of the regiment on the position kept firing from different positions. The Japanese soldiers were beaten so that their arms and legs flew everywhere, and blood soaked the hillside like rain.  The arrogant policemen mixed into the 11th Brigade Security Brigade, but were blocked by an unofficial local security force.

    The Japanese troops rushed tenaciously to a distance of five or sixty meters from their position, their ugly faces looking particularly ferocious in the setting sun.  Zhang Yifeng, who had issued a military order and insisted on holding on for twelve hours even if all his troops were exhausted, drew out his sword and jumped up from the trench, followed by more bayonets. The two men were entangled, with only each other.  There were incomprehensible curses, the clash of iron tools, and the screams of people on the verge of death.

    Blood spurts out of the body like a fountain, dyeing the sunset even more bloody.
