    In his eyes, Huang Chuanli and Master Wang seemed to see blazing flames.

    In the middle of the night, the field hospital set up in Beicheng District began to follow the evacuated people to Nancheng District.

    Considering that the Japanese army was likely to massacre the city after occupying Teng County, Xia Yang asked these people to evacuate to Pei County and other directions.

    That is not the Japanese attack route. After these people retreat there, at least they don¡¯t have to worry about being massacred by the Japanese army.

    The medical team of the Fourth Brigade was ordered to evacuate to the Taierzhuang area.

    There is the main force of the national army there. At the same time, Xia Yang and the others will retreat to the Taierzhuang area after the defense battle in Teng County is over, waiting for the Japanese army to continue their attack.

    On the north bank of Jinghe River, Xia Yang ordered the troops to build positions urgently.  Enough ships were prepared at the same time.

    Because Xia Yang was worried that if the Japanese artillery fire blew up the bridge over the Jing River, their troops would not even have a way to retreat.

    These ships are prepared for their retreat.

    He looked at the sparkling river. On the Jinghe Bridge not far away, the retreating civilians and wounded soldiers formed a long queue.

    In the many days of fighting, the people of Teng County suffered equally heavy casualties.

    At this time, a voice appeared behind Xia Yang.

    Xia Yang turned around and saw Anna Robert, standing behind him.

    "I heard that you will not evacuate here until tomorrow night." Anna Robert said.

    Xia Yang nodded and said: "That's right, it's an order from above! There's nothing we can do about it."

    Anna Robert walked next to him, and Xia Yang saw clearly that Dr. Anna, who was usually brilliant, was also quite haggard at this time.

    Although it was not that she had never experienced such a high-intensity battle, she was unable to get enough rest from the multiple days of surgery, and several times she even fainted on the operating table.

    "II want to stay. The wounded here also need treatment." Anna Robert said.

    But Xia Yang said: "No, it's too dangerous. You can stay, but you must stay on the south bank of Jing River. The Japanese army has not crossed the river yet, so you can retreat at any time."

    Hearing this, Anna Robert refused: "No, my duty is to treat the wounded. Our medical team has evacuated. Who will treat the injured soldiers on the battlefield?"

    Xia Yang said: "Then you should understand that the soldiers in the rear are also waiting for your treatment!"

    Anna Robert's beautiful eyes stared at Xia Yang and said stubbornly: "I won't!"

    Listening to the angry words of Doctor Anna, Xia Yang helplessly shook his head and said: "This is a military order! As a soldier of the Fourth Brigade, you must obey it! I don't want to see more people die here.  The battlefield is on."

    Anna Robert looked at Xia Yang angrily, tossed her hair, and walked into the night.

    Xia Yang looked at her back and sighed after a long while.

    The layout of positions and the establishment of defense lines continued until late at night.

    Xia Yang took advantage of this time to take a short rest.

    But like all soldiers, he was awakened by Japanese artillery fire not long after he fell asleep.

    He opened his eyes and found that dawn had arrived quietly.

    On the dark eastern sky, the warm sun slowly peeked out.

    For the first time, Xia Yang felt that the color of the morning sun was like blood.

    The battle ahead began, and the Japanese army began to attack the first line of defense.

    The resistance of the 122nd Division was very resolute, with thousands of people in the entire division basically standing on the first line of defense.

    The Japanese army did not hold anything back and attacked the 122nd Division's position from three sides.

    At this time, Xiao Yuebing ran over, handed a piece of paper to Xia Yang and said: "Brigade, good news, Commander-in-Chief Li said that the 138th Brigade has set out to support us. When the time comes, they will cover our retreat!"

    Hearing this, Xia Yang was a little surprised.

    "There are reinforcements?" Xia Yang said.

    Xiao Yuebing said: "In three hours at most, the people of the 138th Brigade will be able to arrive in Teng County. We should have no problem in retreating safely."

    "Which army is supporting us?" Xia Yang asked.

    "138 Brigade!" XiaoYue Bing thought Xia Yang's ears were deafened by the shells, so he raised his voice.

    Xia Yang waved his hand and said: "I'm not deaf, why are you so loud? Do you remember this 138th Brigade?"

    Xiao Yuebing thought for a while, and then said with a look of sudden realization: "I remembered, it was the unit that robbed our food from the logistics department! Their brigade commander was very domineering!"

    Xia Yang said: "That's right! It seems that Commander-in-Chief Li doesn't know that the 138th Brigade has a problem with us! He actually sent such a troop to support us!"

    Xiao Yuebing said: "Commander-in-Chief Li didn't do it on purpose, right?" He didn't have much of a good impression of the top generals of the Kuomintang.

    But Xia Yang thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "There's no need for this, Commander-in-Chief Li, he really wants to help us this time, otherwise he wouldn't have sent the elite 138th Brigade to rescue us. Put aside Wen Haoxuan's  Regardless of their character, the combat capability of their 138th Brigade is still acceptable."

    Xiao Yuebing asked: "Will the 138th Brigade come to support us?"

    Xia Yang looked at the direction where the 138th Brigade was coming, smiled and said: "Boy, no matter what time, the one we can rely on most is ourselves."

    ¡°Then what if I can¡¯t be relied on?¡± Xiao Yuebing asked.

    ??

    Listening to the sound of gunfire in Teng County in the distance, Wen Haoxuan let out a big yawn on the jeep.

    Yesterday afternoon, he received an urgent order from Commander-in-Chief Li, asking him to rush to Teng County to coordinate the retreat of the 122nd Division and the Fourth Brigade.

    That was a death order. Although Wen Haoxuan was reluctant, he did not dare to openly disobey it.  So they hurriedly gathered their troops and came to Teng County.

    But when he arrived outside Teng County, he stopped.

    The reason for stopping was not because of anything else, but because of Xia Yang¡¯s Fourth Brigade.

    "Order the troops to stop advancing! I see heavy artillery fire ahead. I'm afraid there is an ambush by the Japanese army. I will send out a reconnaissance team to find out the situation!" Wen Haoxuan ordered.

    Hearing this, his staff officer asked in confusion: "Brigade, the artillery fire is on the north bank of Jing River. Even if we pass by, we will never encounter a Japanese ambush."

    But Wen Hao  Ah! Who will bear this responsibility when the time comes?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
