"Captain, retreat. If the Japanese don't retreat, they should come up!"

"I'm not willing..." Xia Fuxing said with red eyes. The farmer in his thirties was feeling a little aggrieved. Although he knew that this was a strategic retreat, he was still panicked. The great land was ruined by these *** beasts...

"Captain, go quickly, the Japanese bullets don't have eyes!"

"The bullet that can kill me hasn't been produced yet..."

At the Baijiagou defense line, Xia Fuxing sat in the command center with an unhappy look on his face. Wen Dianjia smiled embarrassedly. No one should mess with this guy at this time!

Half of the casualties were killed and killed, and he withdrew after just one battle with the Japanese. He was in a state of anger.

"Old Xia, let alone you, Mr. Lu called me just now, we have to withdraw!" Wen Dianjia whispered to Xia Fuxing.

"What, you still need to withdraw?" Xia Fuxing widened his eyes.

"Worry, you don't know. Mr. Lu is playing a big game of chess, how can we understand?" Wendianjia said.

"Hmph, I'm not happy if I don't have a good fight with the Japanese devils!" Xia Fuxing said.

"Do you want to send a telegram to Mr. Lu personally and ask for a fight?" Bao Jinghua's cold voice came.

"Okay..." Xia Fuxing was about to blurt out when he saw Bao Jinghua's cold face, and he opened his mouth and shrank back.

"As a soldier, obeying orders is your duty. Don't you understand this principle, or will you enter the army on the first day?"

"Brig Commander, I'm just unwilling to give up and complain!" Xia Fuxing scratched his head with an old face flushed.

"It's fine if an ordinary soldier complains. As a commander, can you do whatever you want? If the soldiers below see and hear this, how bad the impact will be. Do you know?" Bao Jinghua scolded.

"Brig Commander, I..." Xia Fuxing hung his head.

"Okay, the intention of the Japanese army is not obvious yet. Just because we have thousands of people and horses, we are not enough for the Japanese army to eat. It is not possible to fight hard. President Lu ordered us to retreat after night and give Meihekou Town to the enemy!" Bao Jinghua said.

"That's not that cheaper for these Japanese devils?" Xia Fuxing said dissatisfied.

"Who said they were cheaper? Don't forget that we have prepared a lot of gifts for them!" Bao Jinghua sneered.

"Hehe..." The three of them looked at each other and then laughed sinisterly.

"The devils are moving!"

"Oh, look..."

In the telescope, there were a large number of Japanese soldiers lined up in square formations towards Baijiagou, and the dust that was stepped on was flying. You could feel a compelling momentum.

"Order the troops, keep calm and wait until the Japanese army is approaching before firing. Pay attention to the light and heavy firepower configuration and leave no blind spots for the Japanese army!" Bao Jinghua ordered.

"I'll go ahead. I'm afraid they can't hold back!" Wendian Jia said.

"Okay, be careful, the Japanese's shooting skills are good!" Bao Jinghua thought for a moment and nodded.

The battle started.

The Japanese artillery began to show their power. The large, medium and small caliber artillery attacked the position of the 3rd Brigade of the East Column of Baijiagou.

The Japanese army's tactics were like that. After the artillery was bombarded, the infantry rushed, and the artillery was bombarded. The artillery was tossed and turned around. In terms of tactics, feint attacks in the middle and encircled the two wings, basically this routine is like this, and there is no new trick.

However, the same tactics were repeatedly used, which also shows that this tactic is effective and has no effect, and the Japanese army will not have a special liking for this tactic.

Of course, the current price range is still effective, especially when facing the Chinese team with backward equipment.

The battlefield was filled with smoke. After a while, the Japanese vanguard rushed to a place less than 100 meters away from the positions of the 202 and 203rd Regiments of the Third Brigade.

"beat!"

With a command, the officers and soldiers of the Third Brigade emerged from an anti-aircraft artillery hole and rushed towards their combat positions, aiming at the enemy at a high height and shooting hard.

Accompanied by the sound of cannons, hatred bullets shot twice, and angry grenades were thrown out.

A violent explosion kept coming, and if you fly the plane and look down, it would be a shocking scene.

The bullet waste in the air, only a wisp of blue smoke was seen in the orange-red trajectory. The shells whizzed past, rubbing with the air to produce a thorny sound.

Dongdong...

The water-cooled heavy machine gun needs to be filled with water every two or three minutes. The soldiers' hands that pulled the trigger were burned, but they still grabbed the trigger tightly and kept pulling it without relaxing!

"This is a tenacious army. Although they are not opponents of the warriors of the Great Japanese Empire, they are stronger than the Chinese army we have encountered!" Colonel Izo, the captain of the 7th Regiment, who was commanding the attack, said to a second lieutenant beside him with a telescope in his hand.

"Your Excellency Colonel, the loser has no honor!"

"Haha, the brigade commander's mission is to take down Baijiagou before dark!" Izo said, "Order the troops to accelerate the attack. I will meet the commander of this troops in person!"

"Hayi!"

After half an hour of fierce battle, a hill guarded by the 4th Company of the Third Battalion of the 203rd Regiment was captured by the Japanese army. Using this as a breakthrough, the Japanese army launched a fierce attack on the position of the Third Brigade of the East Column in Baijiagou. Every minute and every second, people fell down. There were also the East Column and the Japanese army!

The Japanese army's excellent equipment and qualities helped them gradually gain control of the battlefield. Although most of the Baijiagou positions are still in the hands of Dongzong, it can be seen that Dongzong is weak after all!

Without heavy firepower and solid fortifications, you cannot defend it by occupying some geographical advantages and the dug trenches and sandbags made of soil!

Even their anti-aircraft holes can only withstand one artillery attack at most, and the second or third time will not work.

After the 202nd Regiment was joined by the 203rd Regiment, their defensive positions were on the flanks and behind the 203rd Regiment, but less than half an hour of fighting with the Japanese army, the 203rd Regiment's defensive positions were washed away. Wen Dianjia was ashamed and had to retreat immediately and defend with the 202nd Regiment!

All the hidden firepower is turned on, and if you don’t turn it on at this time, there will be no chance. If you insist on the darkness, they can evacuate!

"The Chinese army actually hides some firepower. It seems that the generals of these Chinese army are a bit good!" Colonel Izo commented.

The stone bridge behind has been repaired, and the only four remaining Japanese chariot squadrons have joined the battle formation. They came with hatred.

Then there were motorized squadrons and trucks, which drove to the east coast one after another, and the large troops arrived one after another!

"It's dark at least two hours before it's dark, and nearly 30,000 Japanese troops have already been pressed over!" Bao Jinghua couldn't help but sweat broke out in his palm!

"Reported, the number of people attacked by the Japanese doubled, and the leader of the Wen team reported that there were heavy casualties!"

Layers of sweat kept coming out of Bao Jinghua's forehead. Even though he kept drinking water, he felt that his mouth was dry and his heart was raised to the door of his throat!

In one hour, he suffered more than 500 casualties. In addition to the previous casualties, in less than two hours, the two regiments of the 202 and 203rd Brigade would be destroyed or even completely destroyed!

And it was only two hours before dark!

What should I do? Bao Jinghua must make a decision. Should I withdraw now, persist until dark, or take out the mortar company that has been hidden in snow and use it?

"Brig Commander, this won't work. You have to think of a solution!" Xia Fuxing rushed into the command center with a bloody face and shouted to Bao Jinghua.

"Put the brigade department's company up!" Bao Jinghua thought for a while and said.

"No, it's okay even in close combat. I'm afraid this positional war..."

"Then I'll just change to a rifle, I don't believe it. After they change to a rifle, they won't go to war?"

"That's fine, but in this way, there will be no protective power around you?" Bao Jinghua.

"Leave me a class, you can take away the others!" Bao Jinghua said decisively.

"Okay!" Xia Fuxing rushed out of the command center without saying a word.

"Staff Officer Liang!"

"Come!" The Chief of Staff of the Third Brigade was Zhao Xinmin of the 204th Regiment. In addition to his students, the staff officer named Liang Hao was followed.

"Brig Commander, what's the matter?"

"Generate power to the headquarters, report our casualties, and request next instructions!" Bao Jinghua ordered.

He didn't want to take this step at first, but at this moment he felt that he could not make this decision.

Tonghua and the East Column headquarters are in a tense and busy scene. More than a dozen radio stations are in use to receive war reports and messages from all parties. The Intelligence Bureau's Telecommunications Discipline has three departments, one is responsible for internal liaison, the second is responsible for external liaison, and the third is responsible for Tianwang liaison. As for the secret liaison between Lu Shan and Fengtian and Lao Fox, there is the General Affairs Office of the Intelligence Bureau, which is led by Xiao Xue specifically to a group.

Li Yunxin is the deputy leader of this group. In addition, he also serves as the section chief of the second department. Xiao Xue is the director of the first department. The main reason is that the telecommunications and password code talents are too scarce. Although the Dongzong has a lot of integration and training, most of them are copying newspapers and translating ordinary telecommunications, and there are not many real top professionals.

"Sister Xiao Xue, the telegram from the brigade commander of the third brigade, hurry up!" Li Yunxin handed Xiao Xue a telegram report.

Xiao Xue glanced at the content of the telegram and immediately said: "Look at the frequency of the Third Brigade and don't move, I'll be back soon!"

"Report!"

"Xiao Xue, what's the matter?" Lu Shan looked up and saw Xiao Xue sending the telegram in person, he felt a little surprised. Xiao Xue sending the telegram in person is generally more important or requires confidentiality. Although there are many staff members of the headquarters, they are not qualified to contact.

"The Third Brigade sent an urgent call, and the 202nd Regiment and the 203rd Regiment suffered heavy casualties. Brigade Commander Bao even sent his own guards. It is still two hours before dark. If it persists until dark, according to the current casualties, the two regiments may have completely fought for nothing!" Xiao Xue said hurriedly.

"Ah!" Lu Shan and Ying Ruoyu were both surprised when they heard this.

"How could this happen?" Ying Ruoyu asked in an incredible tone.

"We underestimated the Japanese army. This elite force who had just come down from the battlefield was indeed extraordinary!" Lu Chen's eyes were gloomy.

"Mr. Lu..."

"We have no need to fight with the Japanese army to the death. We ordered him to find an opportunity to retreat immediately. Be careful not to be in chaos and not to get entangled with the Japanese army. We must safely retreat the troops to the east of the Huifa River!" Lu Shan ordered quickly.

"yes!"
