When Tsubuzaki walked out of the tent of the communications office, he saw the little piggy man looking up at the stars not far away. He immediately walked to stand behind the piggy man and also raised his head to look up at the stars.
While looking up at the starry sky, Tsubujiaki said sadly: "Division Commander, it seems that tomorrow will be a sunny day again."
Just half an hour ago, bad news came from the Black Dragon Valley. A large baggage team sent to fetch water was wiped out, but they could not get even a pot of water back. This shocked Xiaozhu Yoshio and Tsubujiaki in particular. Unfortunately, the Xiaoluyuan brigade was also severely damaged by the Wolf Fang in the Black Dragon Valley, and only a dozen of them escaped in the end.
The captain of the first team, the arrogant and arrogant Sui Igarashi, was also seriously injured.
At this moment, Xiaozhu Yinan and Di Bujiagui had no choice but to give up the thought of getting water from the Black Dragon Pond.
Even the special operations brigade has been defeated. Sending a small force to fetch water will simply lead to death. Send a large force. The terrain of the Black Dragon Valley is narrow and cannot be deployed at all. In fact, it is still a small force fighting.
There was no choice but to give up fetching water.
"Yes, the halo of the moon brings wind, and the halo of the sun brings rain. Even if there are clouds tomorrow, they will be blown away by the strong wind." The little piggy boy raised his head and looked at the blurry moon in the western sky, frowning. Said, "It would be great if it rains tomorrow. Even just a light rain would be enough to alleviate our urgent needs."
Di Bujiagui sighed heavily, "Will it rain tomorrow?"
Although he knew that Xiaozhu Yinan was in a bad mood at this time, he still had to report what should be reported.
Tsubuzagui handed over the telegram in his hand and said: "Division Commander, this is an urgent telegram that just arrived from the headquarters of the Condemnation Army. Something happened to His Highness the Prince."
"Nani?" Xiaozhu's face suddenly changed. "Did something happen to His Highness?"
"Hai." Di Bujiagui paused and said, "This happened two days ago."
"Nani, two days ago?" Xiaozhu Yinan frowned when he heard this. He had been busy solving the difficulties faced by the 10th Division before, and he didn't realize that he and Dong Jiu Nianyan had already passed the forty-eighth anniversary. There had been no contact for an hour. It was only when Jingdi Bujiagui mentioned it that he suddenly realized.
Tsubukkaki added: "Two days ago, you, the division commander, also knew that the Abe team recaptured the flag of the 10th Infantry Regiment. It was because of this news that His Highness the Prince decided to personally lead the Kato Brigade to the front line to respond. , but who could have known that this would actually be a trap?"
"Trap?" Xiaozhu Yinan lost his voice, "Is this actually a trap?"
"Hai, this is indeed a trap." Tsubuza Guiton said, "This should be the case. Abe's resolute special forces should have been collectively crushed long ago. They reported to His Highness the Prince through the walkie-talkie that Abe's team had recaptured the infantry. The one holding the flag of the 10th Regiment and retreating towards the sky is Xu Rui!"
It must be admitted that Tsubujiaki's logical reasoning ability is quite strong.
"Baga." Xiaozhu Yinan was convinced of Di Bujiagui's conclusion and gritted his teeth and said, "Xu Rui, you are cunning and cunning."
After a pause, Xiaozhu Yinan asked Di Bujiagui again: "Di Bujia Mulberry, has His Royal Highness the jade been broken into pieces?"
Shaking his head, Tsubuzaki replied: "It's just missing at the moment, but according to the aviation report, the independent regiment has blocked the area near the first line of sky and is launching a blanket search."
Xiaozhu Yinan said: "In other words, the Independent Group has not found His Highness yet?"
"Probably not." Dibujia Guidun said, "Otherwise, with Xu Rui's consistent style, he would have already publicized this matter on the Dameishan Radio Station."
Xiaozhu Yinan said: "What requirements does the Condemnation Army Headquarters have for our division?"
"There is no request." Tsubujiagui shook his head and said, "The dispatched condemnation army headquarters only asks us to evacuate safely."
In an instant, Xiaozhu Yinan's face turned the color of pig liver. Even though he was hundreds of kilometers away in time and space, Xiaozhu Yinan could imagine what happened when Shunroku Hata dictated the message to Kawabe Shozo. His expression must have been one of great disappointment. Shunroku Hata must have been extremely disappointed with the Tenth Division.
They are an elite permanent division, but they are only asked to evacuate safely!
Although Shunroku Hata didn't scold Yoshio Piggy, it was even more uncomfortable than scolding someone else!
The little piggy boy would rather be scolded by Shunroku Hata than make such a request.
After a long while, the little piggy man gritted his teeth and said, "It's no wonder that the general is very disappointed in you and me."
"Hai." Dibujia Guidun said, "Division Commander, General, it is indeed inappropriate for Your Excellency, General, to inform you and me of the incident of His Royal Highness after two days. However, we must also admit that before the attack on Damei Mountain, During the mopping up operations, the performance of our 10th Division was indeed not ideal, and this is probably undeniable."
Xiaozhu Yinan said: "The embankment is not full of thorns, you don't have to save face for me. This is not ideal, but very unsatisfactory. In the mopping up operation against Dameishan, the performance of our 10th Division was poor." To the extreme, especially my performance, I was like a trainee second lieutenant who had just stepped onto the battlefield."
Di Bujiagui lowered his head and did not dare to answer Xiaozhu Yinan's words.
However, to be honest, the defeat of the 10th Division actually had little to do with Yinan Xiaozhu. The main reason was probably due to the poor command of His Royal Highness, especially his false and true tactics, which not only had no effect, Instead, it put the 10th Division in danger, but it was impossible to say this.
The little piggy man said again: "The embankment is not mixed with evil, the right way is to know your shame and then be brave. If anyone wants to see me, the little piggy man, and wants to see the jokes of our 10th Division, they are wrong. My little pig Zhu Yinan will not give in so easily, and our 10th Division will not be defeated so easily. I don’t believe it, the little Hericaceous Ridge can stop our 10th Division!"
"Hai." Di Bujiagui paused and said Fenran, "The division commander can think so. I am very gratified for my humble position."
"Order." Xiaozhu Yinan gritted his teeth and said in a ferocious voice, "The 10th Field Artillery Regiment carried out a strong artillery attack on Houtou Ridge. Tell that idiot Taniguchi to shoot down all the artillery shells, and then order the infantry The 40th Regiment will launch a general attack before dawn. If Houtou Ridge cannot be taken before dawn, he, Xi Da Tiao Pang, will be prepared to commit seppuku to thank the Emperor!"
"Hai." Di Bujiagui paused and turned around.
(Dividing line)
"Fifth Young Master, please drink some water." Changzhu said and handed over the kettle.
Huang Shouxin took the kettle and took a sip. He handed the kettle back to Changzhu and cursed again: "How many times have I told you, don't call me young master, call me battalion commander, call me battalion commander!"
"Yes, battalion commander." Changzhu took the kettle back and smiled heartlessly.
Huang Shouxin could only smile and shake his head. It seemed that it would be difficult for this idiot to change his mind.
At this moment, a scream of a cannonball suddenly flew through the air. Upon hearing the sound of the cannonball, Huang Shouxin's expression immediately changed. He immediately stood up and shouted: "Japanese shelling, beware of artillery, beware of artillery." !”
Before he could finish his words, the shell had landed less than fifty meters away from Huang Shouxin and exploded. Fortunately, the shell landed in an open space and did not cause any damage to the officers and soldiers of the third battalion. Only the hot sand kicked up by the explosion. The heat caused a dozen nearby soldiers to grin, and a lot of sand fell on Huang Shouxin's neck.
But Huang Shouxin knew that this shell was just a prelude.
"It's anti-gun, anti-gun, quickly enter the anti-artillery hole, quickly enter the anti-artillery hole!"
Huang Shouxin's shrill roar spread throughout the Herutou Ridge in an instant. The next moment, the officers and soldiers of the third battalion guarding the Herutou Ridge bent down and hid in the artillery holes.
Huang Shouxin and Changzhu also hid in one of the bombproof holes.
Almost at the moment Huang Shouxin and Changzhu hid in the artillery-proof hole, short bursts of artillery shells screamed, and then rows of artillery shells landed on the defensive position of Houtou Ridge, and then exploded. , the continuous big explosions almost turned the entire night sky red and could be clearly seen more than ten miles away.
The position where Huang Shouxin and Changzhu were located belonged to the third line of defense, which was a reserve position and was not the focus of the bombardment. Therefore, it was completely conceivable what the situation would be like on the first line of defense on Houtou Ridge. Huang Shouxin's expression changed. It was so embarrassing. He really didn't know if the fortifications on the ridge could withstand such intensity of continuous bombardment.
Although the Changzhu people were a little short-sighted, they were not stupid, and they could also see that this Japanese bombardment was different from the previous ones.
At that moment, Changzhu said: "Fifth Young Master, the kid's bombardment this time is no better than before. It seems he is in a hurry."
Huang Shouxin snorted and didn't bother to correct Chang Zhu's title again. Anyway, he just changed his name once and said that he would call him Fifth Young Master again next time.
However, Changzhu's usually confused face showed rare concern and said: "Fifth Young Master, the artillery bombardment of the little devil is no better than before. The infantry attack must be desperate. When we counterattack later, you must not leave me." Too far, otherwise I won’t be able to guarantee your safety, so be obedient, ah.”
Huang Shouxin rolled his eyes after hearing this, you'd better protect yourself.
The kid's shelling this time was indeed different from the past, and lasted for a full forty minutes.
Forty minutes later, the Japanese artillery finally stopped. Immediately afterwards, fierce gunshots rang out on Houtou Ridge. Listening to the gunshots, Huang Shouxin knew that the Seventh Company guarding the ridge was already firing on all cylinders. Despite the sound of gunfire, there were still continuous explosions, but this should be the explosion of a Japanese grenade.
For the officers and soldiers of the independent regiment, the Japanese grenade is the real fatal threat!
Soon, the seventh company commander sent someone to report that the Japanese had broken into their position and they would soon be unable to withstand it!
"Guard platoon, follow me!" Huang Shouxin yelled, drew his pistol and rushed to the position on the mountain ridge first. Changzhu also quickly followed. (To be continued.)
