    East of Xinchang City, Qingshantou.

    The straight-line distance from Qingshantou to Xinchang East Gate is less than two kilometers, and it is even within the range of stray bullets, so there is still considerable danger.

    And it¡¯s still daytime, so it¡¯s even more dangerous.

    Tao Liu, the commander of the 62nd Division, had to climb to the roof to look at the battle situation at the east gate.

    Zhong Yi has once again ordered that only feint attacks are allowed after dawn, but even if it is a feint attack, Tao Liu also wants to pretend to be a real one. If there is a chance, what's the harm in really taking Xinchang County?

    Therefore, Tao Liu eagerly wanted to see the battlefield outside the east gate.

    Seeing Tao Liu climbing up with his butt stuck out, Zhong Guangren advised: "Master, it's dangerous!"

    Tao Liu didn¡¯t listen at all, and still climbed up the ladder to the roof. Zhong Guangren had no choice but to climb up to the roof and stand next to Tao Liu.

    The two men looked forward with telescopes, and saw that the outside of the east gate of Xinchang was shrouded in gunpowder smoke.

    Amidst the dense smoke of invisible objects, there are still clusters of red lights blooming violently.

    "What a fool!" Tao Liu said bitterly, "We don't have cannons, so we are really suffering a loss!"

    "Who says it's not?" Zhong Guangren also said, "Since China and Japan started a full-scale war, our national army has suffered a lot because it has no artillery. If we have half the artillery firepower of Japan, how can we end up like this?"

    "That's true," Tao Liu said, "We need to have half the artillery firepower of Little Japan. Not to mention the current situation, Little Japan can't even break into Jiangsu, and it was blocked by us in Shanghai."

    Before he finished speaking, the roar of an airplane engine suddenly sounded overhead.

    Looking back hurriedly, the two of them were surprised to see a dozen Japanese bombers with plaster patterns on their wings piercing through the northeastern sky.

    "What a fool." Tao Liu roared with a black face, "Here we go again!"

    The next moment, the dozen or so Japanese bombers in the sky swooped down one by one in groups of two. They first dropped aerial bombs at the National Army positions outside the east gate of Xinchang and around Teapot Ao. After dropping the aerial bombs, they then  Tao and Liu began to swoop and shoot. Seeing the Japanese bombers swooping down again and again, Tao and Liu's lungs were almost exploding with anger.

    "Withdraw!" Tao Liu roared bitterly, "Order all regiments to withdraw immediately."

    Tao Liu's order was quickly conveyed, and the main regiments that were launching a fierce attack on Xinchang County and Teapot Au quickly evacuated their positions and shifted to a defensive posture.

    But the Japanese did not counterattack.

    The battlefield soon became silent.

    A quarter of an hour later, the Japanese bombers began to return.

    Watching the Japanese bomber disappear in the northeastern sky, Zhong Guangren said: "Master, are you still attacking?"

    "Forget it, let's not attack." Tao Liu shook his head and said, "There are enemy planes during the day, so this battle is impossible to fight."

    "It can't be done at night." Zhong Guangren sighed and added, "We don't have artillery, so we can't break through the Japs' fortifications at all. If we take human lives, how many brothers will die?"

    "Then what do you think we should do?" Tao Liu said, "We finally trapped an infantry regiment of the Japs here, how can we let them go like this? I can't get over this hurdle in my heart."

    Zhong Guangren was silent when he heard this.

    At this time, Tao and Liu suddenly heard a strange noise.

    This sound sounds a bit like the sound of a foreign car driving on the highway.

    Looking back, Tao and Liu were shocked to see a strange foreign car speeding down the road.

    It can be said that it is a foreign car. A foreign car obviously only has two wheels, but this foreign car has three wheels. Or it can be said that it is a rickshaw. The rickshaw is pulled by people, but this car relies on people's legs.

    "What is this?" Tao Liu asked in astonishment, "Why have I never seen it before?"

    What Zhong Guangren paid attention to was the person sitting in the car. He frowned and said, "Master's seat seems to be from Yinjiang."

    "From Yinjiang?" Tao Liu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he noticed that the two people sitting in the strange car were not only wearing American-style steel helmets, but also the military uniforms they wore were different from them.

    Since the Eastern Zhejiang Coastal Defense Corps is not a regular army, Zhong Yi did not let them wear the uniforms of the Chinese army. Instead, he designed a military uniform of his own. The style was based on the U.S. military uniform, which was very handsome.

    Precisely because of this military uniform, Zhong Guangren could easily determine the identity of the person.

    The speed of this strange car was quite fast, and it quickly arrived at the gate of the division headquarters.

    Division Headquarters Guard StandsWhen he stepped forward to stop him, a second lieutenant jumped out of the strange car and handed his ID to the guard.

    After the guards saw the IDs of the two people, they immediately moved the roadblock to let them go. The two people returned to the strange car and drove straight into the headquarters of the 60th Division.

    Tao Liu and Zhong Guangren looked at each other and quickly came down from the roof.

    The two of them had just landed when someone from Yinjiang had already walked in.

    The leading second lieutenant stood at attention and saluted, and said loudly: "Li Xing, the second lieutenant liaison officer of the Artillery Regiment directly under the Zhejiang East Coast Defense Corps of the National Revolutionary Army, has met Commander Tao! Deputy Commander Zhong!"

    "Second Lieutenant Li." Tao Liu returned the military salute and frowned, "What are you doing?"

    "By order of our regiment, I came here to deliver a letter." After speaking, Li Xing handed over a letter.

    It was said to be a letter, but it was actually just a small note. Tao Liu glanced at it and read it.

    But after reading the note, Tao Liu immediately froze there, as if he couldn't believe it.

    Next to him, Zhong Guangren couldn't see the content of the note in Tao Liu's palm, and said anxiously: "Master, what does the letter say?"

    Tao Liu handed the note to Zhong Guangren. After reading it, Zhong Guangren was overjoyed and said: "My family has actually transferred an artillery regiment? And it is temporarily under the control of our division!"

    After a pause, Zhong Guangren said excitedly: "Master, we are worried about having no artillery, so my family sent us a regiment of artillery. Is he capable of killing us?"

    Tao Liu waved his hand and asked Li Xingdao: "Second Lieutenant Li, let me ask you, how many cannons does your artillery regiment have?"

    "Our regiment has a total of forty-eight artillery pieces." Li Xingdao, "36 medium-sized mortars with a caliber of 81mm, plus 12 heavy mortars with a caliber of 107mm."

    "Mortars?" Tao Liu was a little disappointed when he heard this, but then he felt relieved, "Fortunately, there are enough of them. 48 mortars are enough for a little Japanese to drink a pot!"

    Zhong Guangren also asked eagerly: "Where is your group?"

    Li Xing replied: "Our group has passed Shaxi Town now, and we will definitely arrive before dark."

    "Can we arrive before dark?" Tao Liu said fiercely, "Okay, the time is just right."

    After saying this, Tao Liu turned around and shouted: "The messenger!"

    An orderly soldier quickly came to Tao Liu, put his feet back and stood at attention.

    Tao Liu shouted: "Pass the order, each regiment should seize the time to rest and recuperate their strength. When night comes, give the little devil a hard blow! Tonight, I must smash this stupid 54th Regiment to pieces!"  "(Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
