The blood of the Anti-Japanese War stained the mountains and rivers

With the massive counterattack of the devils, the atmosphere of the 18th Army headquarters, which had been rejoicing at the recovery of Yichang, suddenly became tense again. The phone kept ringing, and the war news kept coming.

Facing the ever-changing battlefield situation, the staff officers are also busy working out new countermeasures.

Compared with the busy 18th Army headquarters, the Devil's 13th Division was temporarily set up in the division headquarters next to the highway, and the Devil's division head, Tanaka Jingichi, was also assigning combat tasks to the troops.

"Beicun United is a right-wing attack force! Capture Wen'an Temple, Hengdianzi!"

"The Lihua Regiment is the left-wing attack force! The Chongqing Army responsible for clearing Banyue Mountain and Yaqueling!"

"Shibata, the Murai Regiment is the central breakthrough force! Capture Guanyin Bridge and Zijin Ridge!"

"The Hirano troops and the Zhongchuan troops are in charge of outflanking. We must completely annihilate the 18th Chinese Army in the Yichang area."

"Hi Yi!"

These devil troops were originally displeased with the order to withdraw from Yichang, and now they are going to return to Yichang again, and they are all fighting.

Text Chapter 380 Supplementary Soldiers

With the assistance of field artillery units, several main infantry regiments of the Devil's 13th Division launched a fierce attack on the Chinese defenders in Yichang.

Since the devils had destroyed all the military facilities during their previous retreat, the Chinese defense forces could only fight on the broken positions while repairing them.

A regiment of the 199th Division came up in time for reinforcements. After a fierce battle, they finally stabilized their position. Yang Ling and his Lieyan Special Forces Brigade were ordered to hand over their position to this regiment after a series of battles, and they retreated. Rest and stand by.

Part of the 75th Army also successfully crossed the river to support them. Along the way, officers and soldiers rushed to the front line everywhere, and the wounded were sent down continuously.

The devil's counterattack this time exceeded everyone's expectations. Fortunately, Yang Ling and the others gave a timely warning and blocked the devil's first attack, buying time for the troops behind.

"Hey, hello! You listen to me well, block the little devil for me, and block the devil in the Jiangjunyan area at all costs!"

In the military headquarters of the 18th Army, the phone rang one after another, and the commander Peng Shan kept giving orders to the troops under his command.

"What, Jingzhen Mountain has fallen?!"

"Immediately organize a counterattack with troops, and Jingzhen Mountain must be taken back to me! Otherwise, I will shoot you!"

There are more than 13 soldiers in the 2th Division of the Devils, and they also have cavalry units, field artillery units, and tank units temporarily assigned to them. It can be said that their combat effectiveness is quite strong.

Now the little devil's 13th Division is attacking Yichang again in three groups, and the 18th Army that wants to face it is under great pressure.

The 18th Army had already suffered heavy losses in the battles a few days ago, especially because its 18th Division was in charge of the main positions. Not only did the troops suffer heavy losses, but the casualties of the officers were also extremely heavy. Now it is basically lost Combat power is being accommodated and assembled at the China Merchants Wharf.

Facing the massive counterattack of the devils, the 18th Division under the 11th Army is marching rapidly from Dangyang to Yichang, trying to quickly return to the construction to enhance the actual combat effectiveness of the 18th Army.

"Ang woo—"

When the front of Yichang had become a mess, the devil's plane formation also flew to help, bombing and strafing the defenders' positions everywhere.

With the loss of air supremacy, the casualties of the defenders are rising rapidly, and the situation everywhere is becoming more and more critical.

As soon as Yang Ling and the others evacuated from the front line, they received a new order to cooperate with the 199th Division to regain the Jingzhen Mountain position and stabilize Yichang's outer defense line.

"Okay, I just took it off and my butt is still hot, and I'm going to die again."

The officers and soldiers of the Lieyan Special Operations Brigade were eating with their jobs in their hands. After receiving the order, they had to put down their jobs, pack up their equipment and prepare to go to the battlefield again.

"Mr. Yang, these are more than 200 soldiers who have just been recruited. Now all of them are handed over to you. The military department ordered you to command the reinforcement of the Jingzhen Mountain position."

Along with the order from the 18th Army's headquarters, more than 200 soldiers who were disbanded and taken in again, will be reorganized under Yang Ling's command, and Yang Ling will be in charge of commanding them.

"I see, let's lead them to the Jingzhen Mountain position."

Knowing that the military situation was urgent, Yang Ling agreed without any hesitation.

There are more than 200 soldiers from various units, and there are even more than a dozen policemen among them, all of them are disheveled and ragged, looking extremely embarrassed.

"Captain Sun Liangcheng was ordered to lead the team to follow Commander Yang's command, and ask Commander Yang to speak!"

The leader of the more than 200 captured soldiers was a square-faced lieutenant. After seeing Yang Ling walking past, he trotted forward and saluted.

Yang Ling nodded, raised his hand to return the military salute, then walked up to these listless soldiers and stood still.

"I am Yang Ling, the commander of the Lieyan Special Operations Brigade. From now on, you will belong to my command. I only have two requirements. First, absolutely obey orders! Second, absolutely obey orders!" Yang Ling looked around. Circle them, and shout loudly and forcefully.

"Did you hear me clearly?!"

Seeing that the more than 200 soldiers did not respond, Yang Ling asked again loudly.

"clear……"

These soldiers who had just retreated after being defeated were all weak and demoralized.

"Tell me loudly, do you hear me clearly?!"

"clear!"

"very good!"

"Now we have received an order to rush to the Jingzhen Mountain position immediately to assist the 595th Regiment led by Luo Guoliang to retake the Jingzhen Mountain position! Do you have any questions!"

"no!"

This time the soldier's answer was particularly loud, which surprised Yang Ling.

"Sun Liangcheng!"

After Yang Ling finished his training, he immediately turned his attention to Sun Liangcheng, the captain and company commander who was standing at the head of the team.

"To!"

Sun Liangcheng stepped out and answered loudly.

"Have you eaten, brothers?" Yang Ling asked.

Sun Liangcheng was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head in embarrassment: "We rushed over after receiving the order from the shelter, and we didn't have time to eat."

"It's okay not to eat. Tell the brothers to eat over there and leave in 5 minutes!" Yang Ling pointed to the several sheds built not far away and ordered.

Yang Ling didn't know how long the frontline battle would last. If these officers and soldiers were to fight hungry, their combat effectiveness would inevitably be compromised. Another important reason was that they had to be sympathetic to their subordinates and win the ownership of these soldiers quickly. feel.

There are several big pots set up around several sheds on the roadside, and more than 20 people are busy cooking and sending them to the front.

I heard that more than 200 soldiers like Yang Ling were about to go to the front line and they were still hungry, so the common people directly took the bowls and chopsticks and let them eat first.

These soldiers have been in the suburbs of Yichang since last night. They started chasing the little devils early in the morning, and then they were defeated by the devils who fought back. They were already hungry.

But the logistics support of the Chinese army has always been bad. Their troops were defeated and they couldn't find anything to eat, so they were hungry.
