    Chief Chen and Chief of Staff Guo quietly returned to Enshi, but Zhang Xian was left behind.  Except for the Commander-in-Chief of the Jiang Defense Force and a few other senior officials, not many people knew about this matter, and everyone still did not want to affect the morale of the troops.

    Everyone knows that Zhang Xian is the combat adjutant of the Sixth War Zone Commander's Department. Of course, one of the reasons for keeping him here is to cover up others' eyes, but for Zhang Xian, it is more of a voluntary choice.  Zhang Xian did not forget that he was also a battalion commander of the 11th Division, so when Commander Chen wanted to go back, he took the initiative to stay at the frontline combat headquarters in Sandouping.

    When they broke up, Chief of Staff Guo was a little reluctant to leave Zhang Xian. After getting along with each other these days, he admired this smart and capable young man very much. What's more, Zhang Xian was a very well-behaved boy and could even flatter him.  Unconsciously, it feels very comfortable.  At that moment, Guo Wan said to Zhang Xian: "It is difficult to predict the outcome of this battle. You are also a smart person. I don't need to say more, you can definitely see it, so I have a piece of advice for you."

    "Please take a seat and speak!"

    Guo Wandao: "This battle will be so fierce that it will cover the sun and the moon with blood. When the time comes, you will also have to take a look at the battle situation. If you are really unable to save yourself, you don't have to make unnecessary sacrifices. You can keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood."  . Then you should return to Enshi headquarters as soon as possible, and I will excuse you!"

    Zhang Xian was a little moved. Chief of Staff Guo had already seen through the situation. It was precisely because he was not sure of victory that he said this. This was also a kind of love for him.  But at the same time, this also reminded Zhang Xian of the scene when Guo Wan commanded the Battle of Yichang. Obviously, Guo Wan must have had this idea during the Battle of Yichang, so he abandoned the city to survive.  But this time is no longer that time. This battle has become a life and death battle for the national army. If everyone still has this idea, then they will not fight hard at all, and they will just not fight this battle.  Although he was very grateful to the chief of staff, he still said: "Thank you for taking care of me. I will remember it! However, if I can do it, I will definitely work hard for it. I don't dare to be timid in the first place, let alone  Go and seek retreat without fighting.¡±

    Guo Wan looked at him blankly, nodded, and sighed: "Nowadays, among the young officers in the national army, there are very few people like you who dare to think, dare to do, and dare to fight and rush.  Okay, let me tell you the truth. In fact, the key to this battle is Shipai. If my guess is correct, the Yutai Mountain side may not be able to support tomorrow, and the Pianyan side may not be able to support it for a longer period of time. It is estimated that they can get there.  On the 27th, that is to say, starting on the 28th at the latest, the Japanese will attack the front line of Shipai. If the 11th Division wants to keep the Shipai from being lost, it will have to support it for at least three days, and it may even take five days.  Reinforcements are coming. The 20,000 people of the 18th Military Region are fighting against twice the enemy of 40,000 to 50,000 people of the three Japanese divisions, and it is even more difficult to resist in terms of weapons and artillery fire. Alas! It is difficult!"

    Zhang Xian knew that what he said was indeed true, and asked at the same time: "Does Chief Chen know about this situation?"

    Guo Wan nodded and told him: "Mr. Chen doesn't know why. He is also anxious. Although everything depends on human effort, at this time he can only do his best and listen to fate!"

    Zhang Xian smiled, but he was full of confidence.  "I believe man can defeat nature!" He told Guo Wan: "We will definitely win!"

    Guo Wan did not answer. He looked at him for a long time and saw that his military cap was a little crooked. He couldn't help but raise his hands to straighten his military cap.

    ****************

    It¡¯s only thirty miles from Sandouping to Shipai. Zhang Xian never had the chance to go back to his independent camp to take a look. Not to mention the independent camp, he didn¡¯t even have time to go to the nearby 18th Army rear hospital.  After seeing off Chief Chen and Chief of Staff Guo, Zhang Xian was walking near the hospital. Only then did Zhang Xian remember Wang Jinna coming and walking in with Liu Xiaohu and Xiong Sanwa. At this time, this place had become the busiest place, not only  There were wounded soldiers from the 18th Army and wounded soldiers from other armies.  Although it seems chaotic inside, there are actually certain rules.

    When Zhang Xian came here, he thought the hospital was too empty, but until now, it seemed too small.  The entire hospital was full of wounded soldiers, and even the nurses who were seen most often were rarely seen.  Finally, Zhang Xian saw a nurse he knew and asked about Wang Jinna's location.  The little nurse just told him that Dr. Wang had been performing operations and had performed operations on more than thirty soldiers that day, and then ran away quickly to go about her business.

    Looking at the wounded, although he was worried that Wang Jinna's body would be overwhelmed, Zhang Xian also knew that this was an emergency period. As long as Wang Jinna could save more soldiers, it would be a relief to him.  When he came to the operating room, he saw someone carrying a soldier out after the operation, and immediately another injured person was carried in.  He knew that his wife would not have free time to talk to him today.Danger, before the battle is over, it is inconvenient to investigate the reason first. At present, only Shipai, the core fortress, is left. Saving Shipai means saving the first gateway in eastern Sichuan.  So, the commission sent another telegram to the frontline headquarters. Commander Wu handed the telegram to Zhang Xian and said: "Shipai is the Stalingrad of China, and it is an important place related to the safety of the capital.  . The generals of the Jiang Defense Army must defend the stone plaque, ensure the stone plaque, kill the enemy bravely, hold on to the fortress, and not miss the opportunity to gather and annihilate the enemy forces."

    Zhang Xian looked blank. It was only the 26th at this time. There were still five days until the 31st when the reinforcements arrived as Chief Chen said. What a difficult life and death battle this would be!

    "Commander, I will go to the 11th Division with this telegram from the commission!" Zhang Xian suddenly calmed down. He was not in a hurry, but he said at the same time in a voice that was unquestionable: "But, Commander  , I would also like to ask you to sit in Sandouping. As long as the 11th Division is still there and as long as the 11th Division has not been defeated, please do not give up first, let alone order a retreat!"

    Commander Wu was startled. Although he was very unhappy to be given instructions by this small battalion commander who was originally his subordinate, but now this small battalion commander represented the senior officer department after all, he could only nod his head at the moment.

    Zhang Xian was still a little worried, and said solemnly: "Commander, when I go here I will help Master Hu die to serve the country. I hope that the commander will not worry about his subordinates' conflicting remarks. In everything, national affairs and the military are the most important!"

    "Don't worry!" Commander Wu was moved by Zhang Xian's words and forgot about his unhappiness just now, and nodded.

    Zhang Xian saluted him with a standard military salute, and then smiled at him!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
