    Before returning to the division headquarters, Zhang Xian heard the sound of gunfire from the direction of Nanlinpo. Needless to say, the enemy launched another attack, but he firmly believed that his brothers would not let the enemy cross that road.  A solid line of defense, this line of defense was forged with everyone's blood and faith. All soldiers will surely repel these greedy invaders again.

    At this moment, Zhang Xian heard fierce gunfire from the direction of Niuchangpo in the northeast. His heart tightened. That was the defense area of ??the 32nd Regiment, and Niuchangpo belonged to Zhujiaping.  The barrier, Zhujiaping is only more than ten miles away from the Shipai Fortress. Once it is lost, the Japanese can go straight to the core of the Shipai Fortress.  It seems that the Japanese must have used part of their troops to bypass Nanlinpo and attack Zhujiaping directly.

    Zhang Xian's guess was confirmed by the division commander. It turned out that the Japanese had been unable to attack Nanlin Slope for a long time, so they found another way and sent two regiments, passing through Yujiaba, bypassing Caojiafan, splitting into two groups, and one heading towards Xiangdangkou.  They attacked Niuchangpo from the front and attacked Niuchangpo from the side of Pengjiapo.  Captain Wang Yuanling of the 32nd Regiment discovered the Japanese's intention in time and mobilized a company to block the outflanking enemy, so that Niuchangpo would not be attacked on both sides.  The 32nd Regiment is the essence of the 11th Division, so in Zhang Xian's opinion, the battle at Niuchangpo will not be worse than the battle at Nanlinpo of the 31st Regiment.

    However, Commander Hu also told Zhang Xian bad news. The enemy's 3rd Division had been fighting with the 34th Division of the 18th Army, first near Yutai Mountain, and after the Yutai Mountain position was lost.  , the temporary 34th Division withdrew to Tiantaiguan, ten miles northwest of Yutai Mountain, to continue blocking the attack. Tiantaiguan is also a high mountain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, blocking the main road leading to Shipai. It is only fifteen miles away from Zhujiaping.  Six miles.  The two sides fought fiercely for two days, but the 34th Division was finally defeated and the Tiantaiguan position was lost.

    Once the Tiantaiguan position is lost, the 11th Division will face a direct attack from the enemy's 3rd Division. This division was the same enemy that fought a tug-of-war with the 11th Division at Luodian during the Songhu Battle, and was also the enemy that invaded Nanjing.  The direct culprit behind the Nanjing Massacre.

    "After the enemy captures the Tiantai Temple, they will definitely move closer to Zhujiaping, so the first one to be attacked will definitely be Badou Fang." Zhang Xian affirmed.

    Hu Congjun nodded and said: "Badoufang is also the defense area of ??the 32nd Regiment. The strength of the 32nd Regiment is definitely not enough, and the 33rd Regiment is also in a fierce battle with another unit of the enemy's 3rd Division at this time.  I can only send the remaining three companies of your independent battalion to Badou Fang to support the battle. You are also the old subordinates of Commander Wang, so let him coordinate the deployment!"

    "Yes!" Zhang Xian answered loudly.

    "There is one more thing I want to tell you, but don't tell your soldiers." Hu Congjun said again.

    "What's the matter?" Zhang Xian asked.

    Hu Congjun looked at him, sighed, but said helplessly: "This is the decision of the commander's department. It was you who should have told me. Haha, now that you are back in the 11th Division, it's me who should tell you."  Bar."

    Zhang Xian was stunned for a moment, then thought of something and asked, "Are they going to withdraw all friendly forces, leaving only our 11th Division to fight alone?"

    Hu Congjun opened his eyes wide and asked strangely: "How come you knew this so long ago?"

    Zhang Xian gave a bitter smile and said to him honestly: "Sir, to be honest, I originally proposed this idea to Chief of Staff Guo in private. I feel that since we have already made a plan to lure the enemy in, close the door and beat the dog.  , we only need to lead the enemy into the high mountains of western Hubei, making it difficult for them to supply supplies and move, and then we can divide them and annihilate them. There is really no need to consume so many troops and so many soldiers just to show off.  That is, this way we can retain more effective forces and wait for subsequent reinforcements to block the enemy's retreat. By then the enemy must be at the end of his strength and just want to escape, and will lose his energy. At this time, we can attack again.  We can definitely win.¡±

    Hu Congjun and Luo Da and Yang Tao from the combat headquarters were all stunned. It took a long time for everyone to understand.  Hu Congjun grabbed Zhang Xian by the collar, his eyes widened, as if he was a gangster fighting in the street, he pointed at Zhang Xian hatefully and said: "Haha, why did you, a little bastard, come back?  It turns out that you betrayed all of us, and you were afraid that we would scold you, so you came back to pretend!"

    "No!" Zhang Xian shouted, broke away from the division commander's hands, and said seriously: "This is a strategy. Shipai Fortress is the axis of rotation of our army's fan-shaped position across the board. It is like Taierzhuang in the Battle of Xuzhou.  As long as we hold on to this axis of rotation and withstand the enemy's frontal attack, we can allow the flanking armies to wait for opportunities to surround the enemy. If our army's various units act in a unified and coordinated manner and cooperate with each other tacitly, we will definitely be able to defeat the Japanese army of 60,000 to 70,000.They were willing to join, and within a short time, more than 400 people had gathered next to the Independence Camp.

    In fact, no one wants to be a defeated soldier, everyone wants to be a hero.  On the battlefield, it is the generals who can truly gather the courage of soldiers. These generals can be division commanders, regiment commanders, battalion commanders, or even company commanders, platoon commanders, and squad leaders.  As long as someone takes on the core organizational tasks, no matter how bad the soldiers are, they will stay together.  During the battle, if the general is the first to retreat in fear, how can he command the soldiers to win?  Secondly, they are also afraid that they will be leaderless in battle. Once they lose contact with the leader, even the bravest soldiers will feel that they have no support and will naturally collapse.

    More defeated soldiers were collected one after another. Before long, Zhang Muli had gathered more than a battalion of nearly a thousand troops. Of course, the wounded soldiers were let go, and those who remained were those who had been tested and returned from the battlefield.  The warriors who made it through alive.  Zhang Xian couldn't help but look at this old boss with admiration. He gave him a thumbs up and said in admiration: "Brother, you are really yours. We have so many more people for nothing. Haha, the teacher will definitely praise you when you go back."  .¡±

    Zhang Muli smiled bitterly and said leisurely: "Brother, if you want to praise me, please wait until we are alive to see victory!"

    Zhang Xian was startled and nodded. In such a dangerous situation, he didn't know if he could stop the enemy's iron hoof even if he built a new Great Wall with his own blood and chest.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
