Beacon starts from the departure of a strong man

Matsuura Junrokuro asked his adjutant to bring him a glass of warm water, and he took a sip.

"Sakurai-kun, what's happening on the Western Front of the Republic of China Army?!"

Sakurai Hazo stepped forward and said, "Reporting to the division commander, according to the observations of our frontline troops, there is currently no abnormal movement of the enemy troops!"

"Judging from the corpses of the dead Republic of China troops on the front line, the enemy forces at the junction of the Western Front and the Eastern Front are the 91st Division of the Northeastern Army Feng Zhanhai and the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army."

"Among the two armies, the Northeastern Army has the worse combat effectiveness. Under the counterattack of our imperial army, the Northeastern Army's fighting will has dropped significantly."

"The cavalry regiment, in another half hour, will be able to completely encircle the enemy's western front retreat."

"Yo Xi!" Matsuura Junrokuro nodded with satisfaction: "According to my orders, once the enemy troops reinforce the 122nd Division and the 91st Division, the cavalry troops will immediately launch a fierce attack on Ji Zhangjian's 6th Division!"

"Hi!" Sakurai Rakuzo nodded heavily.

At the Sichuan Army Command Headquarters, Xue Yue, Chen Cheng, and Sun Zhen looked at the map carefully.

Wang Mingzhang's 122nd Division and Feng Zhanhai's 91st Division are indeed in a difficult situation now. Therefore, facing this situation, Xue Yue still wants to increase troops.

He looked at Yu Hua: "Adjutant Yu, what do you think?"

"Tell us what you think and help us think about it. Did Matsuura Junrokuro choose to break through our army's weak point?"

In an instant, Xue Yue, Chen Cheng, and Sun Zhen also looked at Yu Hua.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Yu Hua pondered for a moment: "Sir, the art of war says that you should take the enemy by surprise and attack him who is unprepared."

"I don't think this is a routine operation of the Japanese army!"

Sun Zhen frowned: "Do you suspect that the little devil is playing tricks?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out!" Yu Hua nodded: "Matsuura Junrokuro's strategic intention is too obvious."

"The Japanese army is now increasing its firepower and attacking the weak points of our army, seemingly preparing to break out from here."

"As long as the commander is not stupid, everyone will definitely choose to increase troops to block this gap and prevent the Japanese army from breaking out!"

After the words fell, Xue Yue also felt that what Yu Hua said was right: "Adjutant Yu's words make sense. Everyone has seen Matsuura Junrokuro's obvious intention."

"This is not in line with the kid's daily fighting style. There must be a conspiracy in it."

Guo Xunqi curled his lips and said: "Commander Sun, Commander Xue, Chief Chen, let's not worry about the conspiracy of this old devil Matsuura Junrokuro."

"Our division is going to plug the gap first. Whatever the strategic goal is, as long as we fight a few battles, the little Japs will definitely be exposed."

"It will be effective after just one dozen strokes!"

"Well said!" Sun Zhen applauded: "No matter what his mother's conspiracy is, as long as we fight one battle, we can see through the Japanese underpants."

"You'll know what tricks Matsuura Junrokuro is playing after a dozen fights!"

Xue Yue shouted: "Order!"

Inside the headquarters, everyone stood ready, waiting for Xue Laohu's order.

"Guo Xunqi's troops will immediately reinforce the 122nd Division and the 91st Division to block the gap. At the same time, all frontline troops will observe the movements of the Japanese troops at any time."

"Yes!" Guo Xunqi saluted: "Our department will definitely complete the mission."

Guo Xunqi left the headquarters and rode back to the rear. He did not even say hello to Rao Guohua and Bai Changsheng, but just led the troops and ran away.

When Bai Changsheng and Rao Guohua saw Guo Xunqi coming back, they left without saying hello. They knew that Guo Xunqi must have received the combat mission. They looked at each other and ran towards the headquarters.

If you can't wait for the combat mission, you have to go to the headquarters to ask for it yourself!

Guo Xunqi led the troops on a rapid march this time. Except for guns, ammunition and medicines, Lao Guo ordered all the remaining supplies to be left behind.

Therefore, on the marching route of the newly formed 144th Division, marching pots, quilts, straw mats and other items can be seen everywhere.

It originally took half an hour for the newly formed 144th Division to rush to the battlefield, but after fifteen minutes of rapid march, Lao Guo led the vanguard of the two regiments to the position of the 91st Division.

Feng Zhanhai's 91st Division, facing the Japanese attack, had lost two lines of defense. When Guo Xunqi came to the headquarters of the 91st Division, Feng Zhanhai stepped forward immediately: "Hello, Commander Guo, our division no longer has a reserve team."

"I have moved the guard battalion of our division to the Biandan Mountain area. This defensive position is very critical to us."

"Commander Guo, we are in urgent need of soldiers here now. I want your troops to go here."

Guo Xunqi nodded: "Mr. Feng, I, Old Guo, went to the front line just to kill the Japanese. If we have anything to say, we'll talk about it after we finish this battle."

"Commander, please pass my order and ask Commander Liu to lead the troops up to stop the little Japs. Without my order, the troops are not allowed to retreat."

"Yes!" Lao Guo's messenger responded.

Biandan Mountain!

One regiment of Feng Zhanhai's division has now been defeated. After reinforcements from the division's guard battalion, two-thirds of them are now dead.

Battalion Commander Zhang of the guard battalion came to the injured Captain Tang!

Battalion Commander Zhang took off two grenades from his body and looked at Commander Tang.

Captain Tang took the grenade in his hand, grinned and said nothing.

Battalion Commander Zhang put his right hand on Commander Tang's shoulder and squeezed it gently.

"Old Tang, I still owe you a drink!"

"I'm afraid we can't drink anymore. I will pay back this drink in my next life, brother."

Commander Tang put the grenade away: "How many people are left!"

"There are only about 90 people left in our battalion, most of whom are seriously wounded, and only about 30 people can hold a gun and fight."

"There are less than 100 rifle bullets, the machine gun bullets have been shot out, and there are still 200 shell gun bullets left."

"There are still a lot of grenades and explosive packs left. Two boxes of grenades and ten packs of explosives."

When Captain Tang heard the report, he took off the hat on his head, held it in his hand, and then let go.

Around Commander Tang, several seriously wounded soldiers heard this and said, "Battle Commander Zhang, please leave a grenade for us."

"Tonight, I'm good enough to kill five little devils."

"If the Japanese attack me, I'll fire the grenade and try to pull out a few more people on the back."

"Battle Commander Zhang, I'm good enough."

"That's enough for me, Battalion Commander Zhang, leave the explosive packs to us."

"I'm good enough, Battalion Commander Zhang. We don't want to be prisoners. There are no cowards in our Northeastern Army. Give us a grenade."

After Captain Tang heard the words of the seriously injured man, he put on the hat again and said, "Brothers, you are all good."

There were some drops of water in Captain Tang's eyes, "Our Biandan Mountain is the focus of the Japanese attack, and now the guard battalions from the division are here."

"Our division no longer has a reserve team. The order our regiment received is a fatal order and we cannot retreat."

"As the leader of the regiment, I failed to lead the brothers to fight back to the Northeast. This is my dereliction of duty. I will be a bully for my brothers in the next life."

The seriously injured soldiers all around also smiled and said: "Captain, I will still be your soldier in the next life!"

Seeing the situation around him, Battalion Commander Zhang felt uncomfortable, so he had to give an order to leave the explosive packets and grenades to the wounded.

The soldiers in the guard camp, with tears in their eyes, placed grenades next to the wounded.

Battalion Commander Zhang patted Captain Tang twice on the shoulder and saluted.

Captain Tang returned the greeting: "You are born as a citizen of the Republic of China, and you die as a ghost of the Republic of China!"

The rest of the wounded also saluted and shouted: "You are born as a citizen of the Republic of China, and you die as a ghost of the Republic of China!"

Seeing this scene, Battalion Commander Zhang wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything now, so he had to salute again, then turned and left. (End of chapter)
