Age of Rebirth

Chapter 530: The Jedi Strikes Back

The cold wind is blowing, the night is dark, the fierce guns of Kaifeng City seem to come from the distant sky, and they can't break the silence here. The guns explode from time to time. Looking at the commander who seemed to be sleeping, there was no cry, no tears, just like a group of frozen statues.

None of them believed that the lively commander was lying on the ground with a pale face and a faint smile on his mouth, like a sleeping person. Su Jingfeng had been with the troops since the formation of the Yellow River Defense Line Defense Corps, and he was familiar with everyone. The company commander and even the platoon leader knew them as if they were his own brothers. From now on, he would never hear the hearty laughter of the commander again.

Su Jingfeng, who is bold, outspoken, and jealous, is deeply supported and loved by the soldiers. He tries his best to build a newly formed army into a qualified first-class army. The garrison is regarded as a second-line force. He often said that to be a soldier is to be a good soldier. Give me a year, and I can bring out a resounding main force. He also requires himself and every soldier in the army.

The words are still ringing in his ears, the army has only been formed for more than nine months, and the guards and soldiers around him even worship his commander. They know that Su Jingfeng is the veteran of the independent division. He has fought several vicious battles with the Japanese devils in the Northeast. Fighting with the division commander all the way from the northeast to the north of China, every soldier can be proud of having such a commander. [

They didn't believe that the commander just lay down like this and would never get up again. The military doctor felt Su Jingfeng's pulse hesitantly, his eyes were instantly covered with tears, and he stepped back silently. Wang Dongshan saw the military doctor's movements, The last illusion in his heart was painfully shattered. Regarding his superior, Wang Dongshan could only use one sentence to sum up "he is a pure soldier".

Wang Dongshan has always believed that the time he worked in the Yellow River Henan Defense Line Defense Corps was the happiest and most comfortable time in his life. Su Jingfeng has absolute trust in him, and the cooperation between the two is quite tacit. I have learned a lot, and in my heart, I have long regarded Su Jingfeng as a reliable brother, even though he is several years younger than myself, it does not hinder the respect in his heart.

Wang Dongshan was very surprised, why he didn't shed a tear, but his heart was in severe pain like tearing, the pain made the blood in his whole body boil and burn, even though he was also injured, the pain of the wound was far worse than that The severe pain in his heart, the commander will not wake up, he has already left, and the burden of leading the troops to retreat smoothly fell on his shoulders, he quickly adjusted his emotions and forced himself to calm down.

"Guard platoon, send the commander's body to Xuchang immediately. You must guarantee that no one will disturb the commander, even if it means paying your own life, you must do this!" He issued the first order in a hoarse voice. Order, the soldiers of the guard platoon bent down silently, and lifted up Su Jingfeng's body carefully, as if they were afraid of disturbing his sweet dream.

Then, Wang Dongshan came to the body of Xiaoshan Zhengnan who was shot dead. He frowned and looked at the dead bodies. The filthy military uniforms did not fit well on these corpses. They were obviously a few sizes too big. Wang Dongshan tore Xiaoshan away. The collar of the military uniform on the corpse revealed the uniform of the Japanese army, and it was also wearing the rank of major commander. The military uniforms on the other corpses were torn off, revealing the Japanese military uniform inside.

Wang Dongshan found several artillery special instruments and walkie-talkies around Xiaoshan's body. He fully understood why the commander was suddenly shelled. It was this group of dead little devils who discovered the location of the headquarters. Then, the commander guided the Japanese artillery to bombard the area from a long distance. . . . .

Wang Dongshan slapped himself severely. He was responsible for the security of the Corps headquarters. He neglected his duties. Serious dereliction of duty. He neglected the security of the Corps headquarters. Pointing out the telegram, please punish him severely, only in this way will he feel better.

However, the headquarters of the corps was covered by the artillery fire of the Japanese army, and all the personnel were killed, including the radio station and the password, which were all reduced to ashes under the artillery fire of the little devil. All the contact with the troops was cut off. Remorse and self-blame bit Wang Dongshan's heart like a poisonous snake, and his breath was stuck in his chest. He couldn't spit out or swallow it.

Wang Dongshan ordered the correspondent to find the two brigade commanders. Soon, the two brigade commanders, who were covered in gunpowder smoke, hurried over with a face of reluctance.The chief of staff has to call us back from the line of fire at this time?

Wang Dongshan looked at the two brigade commanders silently. They were the two generals of the corps. After following the commander for a long time, they had more or less learned his fierce fighting style. The brigade commander went crazy. In fact, Wang Dongshan didn't know how to open his mouth. He told these two brigade commanders who had a very close relationship with Su Jingfeng about the death of the commander.

Especially when he said it from his own mouth, time waits for no one, the troops have exceeded the scheduled evacuation time for more than an hour, he gritted his teeth, and explained the situation with difficulty, as expected, the eyes of the two brigade commanders turned red when they heard it Well, if Wang Dongshan was not their respected chief of staff, they would have grabbed Wang Dongshan by the neck on the spot, pointed a gun at his head, and yelled at him for talking nonsense.

After the emotions of the two brigade commanders calmed down a bit, he confessed his thoughts. Wang Dongshan had only one idea, he couldn't just evacuate like this, and the commander had to take revenge. Otherwise, I would be restless for the rest of my life. Looking at us in the spirit of the sky, the two of them agreed without hesitation when they heard it. In fact, their chests were already filled with hatred. In the past three days, so many good soldiers fell under the guns of the little devils. Now, the commander also. . . , they couldn't think about it anymore.

In the end, the three people agreed on a plan to organize all the troops into three teams, each leading a team of about [-] people. Two of the teams secretly moved to the devil's flanks, and they all rushed out at the same time to beat the little devil. One was caught off guard, and then retreated. If they didn't take the initiative to attack, they couldn't swallow this breath in their hearts, and they couldn't vent the hatred in their hearts.

Wang Dongshan knew that when he made this decision, it meant that many of the more than 9000 fighters would fall in the last battle in Kaifeng, and maybe he was one of them, but he regretted it, and wanted to The news of the commander's death told every soldier who participated in the battle that he believed that the commander's prestige in the hearts of the soldiers would arouse the greatest hatred in the hearts of the soldiers, and the object of hatred was the little devil in front of him.

It is now around one o'clock in the morning, the momentum of the Japanese attack has subsided, the sound of guns has gradually calmed down, and the southeast of Kaifeng City, where the troops are guarding, has not lost an inch of land.

After receiving the position reported by Masao Koyama, the Japanese artillerymen faithfully carried out the order to cover the shelling, but they could no longer contact Koyama. The Japanese army, who attacked across the board, fought for more than an hour without taking any advantage. They were fierce and tenacious. The squadron, like an iron walnut, broke a few front teeth of the Japanese army. Isoya Rensuke didn't know the result of the shelling, and he couldn't take advantage of the night battle, so he had to order the troops to stop the attack in dismay.

Isoya Rensuke believes that it is a matter of time to annihilate the independent division troops on the opposite side with his own strength, but it is precisely time that has become his fatal weakness. The First Army was afraid that it might become a lone army. Looking around, only one army of its own, the only way to get out of the dangerous situation was to quickly capture Xuzhou, push into the Songhu area, and join forces from the sea.

Tang Qiuli, who is known as the devil of China, will not let himself spend his troops here leisurely. In less than ten days, Tang Qiuli will mobilize a large number of troops to pounce on him from all directions like a pack of wolves. Come here, pull out the nail wedged into his heart, how long it will take to open this passage, Isoya Rensuke doesn't know, but he knows very well that the independent division troops on the opposite side will not give up Kaifeng until the last person fights of.

At this moment, he really hoped that this Chinese army, which gave him a headache, would voluntarily withdraw from Kaifeng because it could not bear the large number of casualties. The precious three days would be wasted on the way. Only conquered towns can reach Xuzhou. Isoya Liansuke can only hope that Kaifeng is the last difficult bone on the road to Xuzhou. How many corpses of imperial soldiers will be needed to exchange for the Chinese army Annihilated? [

Isotani Rensuke convened a military meeting overnight. His order to the attacking divisions was to occupy Kaifeng at any cost before noon tomorrow, and form a continuous attack wave with the unit as a unit. Those damned Chinese people have all turned into fragmented corpses. At seven o'clock in the evening, they occupy Shangqiu on time. He will use all his strength to give the independent division a final fatal blow.

At two o'clock in the morning, it is the time when people's spirits are most sleepy. The strong wind suddenly blows, blowing dust, and the cold wind blows sharply along the ruined walls. After several days of fierce fighting, the Japanese soldiers are already mentally exhausted. Soldiers, leaning tightly against the cold parapet of the trench, cursing the ghostly weather in China, while tucking their heads into the collar of their clothes as much as possible to resist the impenetrable cold wind, the vigilant Japanese sentries, their eyes widened responsibly , Trying to search the dark night sky, but, apart from the dust that blinds the eyes, there is the whistling of the cold wind.

With a sound, the Japanese sentinel slammed the gun, and went over to check it vigilantly, as if flying from the ground, two black shadows rushed towards him like ghosts in the dark night, and the cold blade flicked across the carotid artery , The [-] gun in his hand changed its owner in an instant, put down the limp body of the Japanese sentry, and stood in his place.

More black shadows behind them groped towards the Japanese army's position quietly. It was as if nothing had happened. Only the howling cold wind saw all this, but passed by indifferently.
