War of Resistance

Chapter 958
When Zhang Tianhai's mind was full of doubts, the Japanese army finally broke through Wutai Ridge guarded by the Cantonese army.

……

Amidst the fireworks, the Japanese second lieutenant Matsushita boarded the Wutailing position holding a pistol.

……

Time went back to 10 minutes ago.

"Report to the head of the regiment, the division commander has an urgent call!" A combat staff officer ran to the head of the regiment, Long Shao'an, with a telegram in his hand to report.

"What? Is it an order from the division commander?" A flash of hope flashed in Long Shaoan's eyes. He hoped that it was the division commander's order to retreat, but this sentence could not come out of his mouth.

It's not that Long Shaoan is greedy for life and afraid of death or something, but his regiment is almost wiped out!No one who is an officer hopes that all his troops will be wiped out!
At least one seed should be left behind, right?
"Yes! Regiment Commander! The division commander told our regiment to withdraw from the position immediately!" said the combat staff officer very firmly.

It's already reached this time, and it is impossible for the order to have other ideas.
Therefore, Long Shaoan nodded and said, "That's okay! Order the troops to resist in an orderly manner, and cross cover the troops to retreat!"

"Yes! Sir!" The staff officer responded.

In fact, at this time, the national army troops who can guard this hill are already prepared to be depleted, but they still cannot let the Japanese army occupy here so easily.

The army is defeated like a mountain, this is not a joke, Long Shaoan can't let this happen - so he has to let the few people left to retreat alternately!

In the distance, Ou Zhen, who was looking at the purgatory-like Wutai Ridge through the binoculars, twitched unconsciously on his face: Although he is no longer a newcomer to the battlefield, every time he sees his compatriots in this battle When he was suffering under the appalling sound of gunfire, he always had a little bit of intolerance.

Isn't the gentleman far away from the poor man actually talking about compassion?

"Master, let the troops evacuate Wutai Ridge now, and want to take it back, but it will not be so easy..." The chief of staff next to him said.

"So what if we can't get it back? The sacrifice now is just for tomorrow's victory." Ou Zhen's face quickly regained his calm. No matter what, he is an excellent commander!

"Yes, I understand." The chief of staff nodded, "It seems that the regiment of Captain Long is going to lose its vitality."

"I've lost my vitality, so I'll make up for it later. This time, if Little Japan wants to run away, it's impossible." A cold light flashed in Ou Zhen's eyes, and the cold light shot out.

"Yes! Master." The chief of staff responded.

……

As the battle became more intense, just as Ou Zhen, Wu Qiwei and others had expected, the [-]th Division had really invested a real elite in this battle.

The balance of victory in the Wutailing battle has tilted infinitely towards the Japanese army!
Sure enough, the Japanese army won this battle, but they also paid nearly 1000 casualties.

As for the national army, the No.90 Long Shao'an Regiment of the Cantonese Army has only one-third of its personnel left.Obviously, the Japanese army won by a big score.

"Come on~! Speed ​​up!!" The Japanese officers at the grassroots level were shouting loudly, because they firmly believed that their side had already won this battle—and they would continue to win!
The long-term victories by a large score and the victories all the way on the south bank of the Yangtze River have made the [-]th Division, whether it is an officer or a soldier, have an air of arrogance!
"Haas!! Kill Chirp!!" the Japanese soldiers shouted.

This kind of scene, as long as any bloody Chinese sees it, they will definitely want to kill this enemy army, and even defeat the enemy's front in Zhengrui!

The news of Wutailing's fall quickly reached Xue Yue's First Corps Headquarters.

But this time, regarding the loss of the frontline positions, the national army did not show due fear and panic. Instead, it confidently issued an order to order all relevant troops to speed up.

"Brother Xiqi, it seems that this time, our battle is on track." After issuing this urgent order, Xue Yue's mood was quite good, after all, Little Japan was about to enter his side. The encirclement circle, in terms of grand strategy, their goal has been half achieved.

"The next step is to look at the actions of Little Japan. Little Japan has now entered the Wanjialing area, and not only the 20th Division of Matsuura Junrokuro is advancing towards Wanjialing, but even Masaki Ito The [-]st Division is also heading towards Wanjialing. According to my humble opinion, these little Japanese are planning to join the No.[-] [-]th Division in the northwest, and then unite with the [-]st Division With the strength of the main force, two and a half divisions are used to cut off the retreat of the main force of the national army on the south bank of the Yangtze River. This move is very beautiful." Wu Yizhi said while helping his round glasses.

"That's only if they can join forces!" Xue Yue said with a smile on his face, "At this moment, a part of our Shangzhen Group, together with a part of the Second Corps, has already formed an oppression on their No.20 Seventh Division. If they fail to rescue in time, this division will be finished. Besides, the [-]th Division has also begun to rush into the Wanjialing area. If they want to control this area, they will inevitably divide their troops. quagmire, then the time has come."

"Then according to the commander, where will they divide their troops?" Wu Yizhi smiled, as if he had already made up his mind.

"It seems that brother Xiqi has already made a judgment, how about talking about it?" Xue Yue looked at Wu Yizhi next to him with a smile on his face.

"Okay, but after I gave the answer, I hope the officer can also tell you the answer." Wu Yizhi straightened his back, looking a lot like those people in movies and TV shows who are going to make big moves.

"Yes. But it doesn't matter." Xue Yue nodded, the smile on his face still undiminished.

"Why don't you do it like this! How about pointing out a location on the map, and the officer also pointing out a location on the map?" Wu Yizhi walked to the front of the map.

"Good." Xue Yue nodded, and followed suit.

A miraculous scene appeared, and both of them pointed to the two locations of "Erfangzheng" and "Lishan" at the same time.

"It seems that heroes see the same thing..." The two looked at each other and smiled.

……

And is the fact exactly what they thought?
The camera turned and turned back to the front line of Wutai Ridge.

After taking down Wutai Ridge, Colonel Tanaka Shengdao was not in a generally good mood.

"Warriors of the sunrise! Look! We have won another victory! The warriors of the sunrise are invincible!!" Saying that, Tanaka Shengdao pulled out the samurai sword from his waist and waved it towards the sky, while his The subordinates followed closely and shouted.

"Long live!!"

"Halloween!!"

"Long live the Emperor!!"

All of a sudden, all kinds of cheers resounded on the top of Wutai Ridge.

In the distance, the short and stocky major general brigade leader was also paying close attention to this scene. He was Shan Ditan, the brigade leader of the [-]th brigade!
"But, order the [-]st, [-]nd and [-]rd regiments to move on, our victory is still far away!" Shan Ditan said.

"But your Excellency, brigade commander, shall we continue to advance according to the original plan?" asked the Japanese staff officer next to him.
