    Ichiro Banishi nodded and said: "I understand that our opponent is very powerful. Previously, the base camp once said that it would take three months to destroy China. Now it seems that it may take us three years, or even longer, to achieve this goal.  Purpose."

    Tokimori Takuno looked at the city wall in the distance. The Chinese soldiers above had begun to carry the wounded down the wall.  At the same time, the firepower points on the city wall were rebuilt.

    "Three years?" Tokimori Takuno murmured, "Maybe even longer!"

    This battle did not last too long. The battle at the South City Gate plus the other three city gates only lasted for more than an hour.

    The Japanese army left nearly 300 corpses outside the gates of Mancheng and ended the battle hastily.

    Not long after the battle, Xia Yang received a telegram from the military headquarters.

    As Xia Yang expected before the war started, the Japanese army launched an attack across the entire Baoding City tonight.  However, because of Xia Yang's advance warning, the defense lines outside Baoding City were well prepared for the Japanese night attack.

    Therefore, this attack by the Japanese army did not achieve much success.

    Even so, they still caused a lot of casualties to the defenders of Baoding City.

    Xia Yang¡¯s fourth regiment, relying on its perfectly constructed defense line and superior equipment and firepower, lost less than a hundred men in the battle.  However, Baoding City and the left defense line both suffered seven to eight hundred casualties.

    The Japanese army deployed more troops there and their firepower was more ferocious.  In addition, the quality of soldiers and equipment and firepower of the defenders on other lines of defense in Baoding City are not as good as those of Xia Yang's fourth regiment. It is reasonable to pay such heavy casualties.

    Xia Yang could feel that this night attack by the Japanese army was not so much a decisive attack.  Rather, it was a tactical probing attack.

    They did not come out in full force, and even the artillery support from the rear did not last too long.  The 59th Regiment, which was responsible for attacking the city where Xia Yang was stationed, did not even use their attack weapon - tanks!

    Liu Fudong and Wei Xing ran to Xia Yang, with smiles after victory on their faces.

    "Tuanzuo, guess what, our battalion has killed at least sixty Japs. Grandma, if it weren't for the two Maxims you transferred, we might not have been able to hold on." Liu Fudong said to Xia Yang.

    The two Maxim machine guns that were temporarily transferred provided strong fire support to the city gate where Liu Fudong was stationed.  If it weren't for these two Maxims, those well-trained little devils might actually be able to break through the East City Gate where he was stationed.

    Wei Xing also said with a smile: "Duanzao! That Uesugi Tu, that kid who surrendered, is so right. The kid has a lot of troops attacking on the flanks. We owe it to you to allocate them to us."  After some heavy firepower, those little devils might actually be able to succeed."

    In fact, after this battle, the soldiers who listened to Uesugi Tu¡¯s lecture have already realized it.  The things taught by that gentle-looking little devil can really help them a lot on the battlefield.

    Xia Yang pulled Uesugi Tu over, whose face was full of dust, patted his head and said, "Uesugi Tu, did you hear that? They praised you."

    Liu Fudong touched his beard, laughed loudly, and patted Uesugi Tu's head lightly and said: "Little devil, thank you, Old Liu, for today! What Lao Tie said is right, this little devil just likes it."  Attack on the flank."

    Wei Xing slapped Liu Fudong's rough hand and reprimanded: "What little devil? What little devil? You have to call me brother. Brother Uesugi, I, Wei Xing, thank you so much today. If it weren't for you, Danzao wouldn't give it to you."  Our battalion has transferred two Maxims!"

    ¡°As he said that, he gave Uesugi Tu a big hug.

    Wei Xing and Liu Fudong are both big bosses and have a clear distinction between love and hate.  Whoever treats them well and helps them will be treated well.  Even if this person is a Japanese who surrendered, they can treat him as a brother.

    Xia Yang also knew that what Uesugi Tu said last night had provided a lot of help to the soldiers of the Fourth Regiment invisibly.  When they faced the Japanese army on the battlefield, they were no longer so timid and fearful, but instead faced the enemy head-to-head, and began to fight back and forth with the Japanese army during the battle.

    He said to Uesugi Tu: "Boy, you did a good job, we will be brothers from now on."

    After briefly arranging the defense on the city, Xia Yang did not rest, but drove to the temporarily built field hospital.

    This battleAlthough the fourth regiment suffered only more than 60 casualties.  However, a large number of civilians were injured during the fighting.

    Many of them are refugees who actively ask to join the fighting. They mainly carry the wounded on the battlefield and transport ammunition.

    Because they lack the concealment instinct of soldiers, they are often more vulnerable to Japanese artillery fire.  However, they did help the Fourth Regiment a lot in this battle.

    At least the fourth regiment will not have to dedicate manpower to carry the wounded down from the city wall because someone is injured.

    Doctors all over the city were gathered together.

    " Different from the silence after the fighting on the city walls, the field hospital at this time is more like a battlefield where a fierce battle is raging.

    Nurses running back and forth, and wounded people being carried in on stretchers.  In this makeshift field hospital, the wails of the wounded lingered in Xia Yang's ears almost from the moment he entered the door.

    He has long been accustomed to such an environment. Xia Yang passed through the crowd and saw Anna Robert, who was concentrating on operating on the wounded on a temporary operating table.

    Xia Yang noticed the dense beads of sweat on Anna Robert's forehead and the dust on her hair.  The nurse next to her kept wiping the sweat from her forehead.

    And through the gap in the crowd, Xia Yang saw the scalpel in her hand, with the dexterity of a butterfly piercing flowers, quickly sewing needles and threads on the wound of the wounded.

    Using the simple Chinese she learned from Hao Shiwen, she asked the nurses to hand her scalpels and hemostatic gauze.

    The same scene was also going on on the other two operating tables.

    The two doctors, Eddie and Matri, were also busy at this time.

    At this time, the military doctor came over and said: "Regiment, we need blood. Quickly organize the soldiers to come and donate blood. Otherwise, some soldiers may not even be able to complete the operation and will fall on the operating table." (Remember the website address of this site.)  £ºwww.hlnovel.com
