    "Brother, are your bullets free of charge?" The commander of the guard battalion couldn't bear it anymore, so he asked Wei Xingdao next to him loudly during the battle.

    "Bullet? Brother! Fight the little devil! Bullet that feels so bad! Hello!" Wei Xing said in authentic Tianjin dialect.

    "I mean, what should I do if the bullets run out?"

    "Finished? Impossible! Thousands of rounds of a Maxim, finished? It's early!" Wei Xing said, and the AK automatic rifle in his hand fired straight into the woods where the Japanese troops were hiding.

    ¡°Brother, let me ask you something!¡±

    "what's up?"

    "Are your fourth brigade still short of men?" the guard battalion commander asked seriously.

    The Japanese army's attack was fierce, and they were holding back their anger. An ambush that was originally no problem was unexpectedly broken through inexplicably.

    The Japs have lost their long-range artillery support, and the only heavy weapons that can be used on the front are mortars.  Or their grenades, but the firepower of these things is really not enough.

    Using the temporarily constructed positions, Wei Xing and Qiu Guoping successfully blocked the Japanese troops in the woods, preventing them from breaking through the woods.

    At the same time, the men of the 178th Division began to retreat in the direction of Xia Yang, where they gathered for repairs.

    Both sides fought fiercely until evening, but the Japanese 10th Brigade still seemed unwilling to do so.

    But everyone knows that this is just the last effort of the Japanese 10th Brigade. In fact, the main force of the 178th Division has successfully completed the evacuation. From a tactical point of view, it makes no sense for them to continue such a charge.

    Nagase also knew it in his heart. He explained the situation at this time to his division commander Isotani Rensuke through the walkie-talkie.

    When Isotani Rensuke heard the news that their artillery position was destroyed, he knew that this ambush would most likely end in failure.

    Regarding the Third Army's attack in Jiaxiang County, the Japanese Tenth Division did not go very smoothly. After fighting for several days, they had not yet broken through its outer defense line.

    This made Isotani Rensuke realize that if they continued to drag here, it would be detrimental to them. They must clarify the direction of the attack and continue to attack the Taierzhuang area.

    When he originally knew that the 178th Division would come to support this place, Isotani Rensuke wanted to stage an ambush and annihilate the effective strength of the national army.

    But what he didn¡¯t expect was that this army actually broke through!  Also took out their artillery positions.

    "Division Commander, we have investigated clearly. The 178th Division was temporarily organized into a fourth independent combat brigade. The brigade commander's name is Xia Yang." His staff officer said, holding a piece of temporarily compiled information.

    Hearing the name "Xia Yang", Isoya Rensuke frowned, and then asked: "Xia Yang, is this the Xia Yang who once caused our army to suffer great losses in Mancheng?"

    The staff officer nodded and said: "Yes, that's him. It's just that he was just a regiment commander at the time, and now he is indeed a brigade commander. We can now be sure that the people who attacked our flanks and attacked our artillery positions should all belong to him.  Subordinates. These people are well-trained and well-equipped, and I am afraid that compared to our Imperial Japanese Army, they are not willing to give in too much."

    Isotani Rensuke walked to the map of Jiaxiang County, looked at the fighting area, and then said: "According to the commander of the Nagase Brigade, the enemy troops who attacked their flanks attacked quickly and withdrew at the same speed.  Soon, after beating them, they ran away, leaving no chance for the 10th Brigade to pursue them."

    The staff officer asked: "Then Your Excellency, division commander, do we want to send troops to pursue them?"

    Isoya Rensuke shook his head and said: "No need, our goal is not here. At the same time, let the 10th Brigade prepare their troops. We attack Teng County! We can't waste too much time in Jiaxiang County."

    Although he suffered a loss at Xia Yang's hands, Isotani Rensuke didn't mind.

    He is not like Ichiro Banishi, who is prone to emotions.  He is proud of his own strength, but also maintains absolute calmness.

    There is no need to waste time in Jiaxiang County at this time.  It's better to attack more valuable targets.

    After thinking this through clearly, Isotani Rensuke decisively ordered: "Give the order, and the main force of the division will immediately follow the Jinpu Railway to attack Tengxian County."

    ¡°As he spoke, Isotani Rensuke tapped the location of Fuji County with his finger.

    "There is only one enemy division stationed here, with a total strength of less than 10,000 troops. It is much easier to crack down on than Jiaxiang County."??Lian Jie said.

    "But, given our losses outside the city, do we want the 178th Division to leave like this?" the staff officer asked.

    But Isotani Rensuke said calmly: "What? Catch up with them and avenge this arrow? Only children have such thoughts. Our ultimate goal is Xuzhou! There is no need to waste too much time here.  , it will only give the enemy on the opposite side time to struggle with their forces."

    The staff officer said: "Okay, then I understand. I will notify the Nagase brigade commander and ask him to assemble the troops immediately and evacuate the battlefield."

    After saying that, he left here.

    Isotani Rensuke looked at the information, which was compiled by the staff about Xia Yang and his fourth brigade.

    "Xia Yang! Interesting." Isotani Rensuke said and began to look through the information.

    As night fell, the shell casings piled up in mountains on the artillery battalion¡¯s position.  For this battle, Xia Yang purchased hundreds of rounds of artillery shells from the Huangsha Baizhan System, and forcibly tore out a line of defense in the Japanese defense line.

    Xia Yang sat on the shell shell and slowly smoked a cigarette.

    Lin Shaowei sat down and said, "Take a bite!"

    Xia Yang handed over the cigarette, and then said: "Master, I am impressed! I thought you would leave your troops and run away after being ambushed!"

    Lin Shaowei took a puff of the cigarette that Xia Yang handed over, and then said: "Don't make fun of me here. This time I admit that Brigadier Xia has excellent command and the combat effectiveness of the troops is also very strong. You advised me not to rush in before."  , I didn¡¯t listen, if I had listened to you, the troops would not have suffered such huge losses.¡±

    Xia Yang said: "You are so happy with your achievements, you are narrow-minded, and you talk on paper. If you correct these problems, you will be a good person. Master."

    Lin Shaowei said: "Really? It seems that apart from these, I have all the advantages!"

    Xia Yang smiled and said nothing, but turned his attention to the Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment that had just evacuated from the front.

    "The little devil has retreated! Travel seat!" Wei Xing ran over and saluted Xia Yang.  It seemed as if he didn't notice Lin Shaowei next to Xia Yang at all.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
