    "Brothers! The air force is coming to support! Hold it! If we hold it for half an hour, we will counterattack!"

    Li Yunlong was relieved when he saw the Air Force coming to support.

    As soon as the air force came to support, his pressure immediately eased a lot.

    Half an hour passed quickly!

    Li Yunlong got down from the trench and put a magazine on his submachine gun. He didn't rush up. The pressure was much less now. He took out a pack of cigarettes and lit one for himself.

    "Li Yunlong, you old boy can do it! How about it? I'm here to save you this time. How are you going to repay me in the future?"

    At this moment, a voice approached Li Yunlong.

    Li Yunlong didn¡¯t need to look, he knew by the voice that this special girl was Lang Jun, the commander of the 18th Brigade.

    "Fart! If I hadn't attacked the little devil's position, you would still be lying on the ground eating sand!"

    Li Yunlong doesn¡¯t buy this.

    "By the way, how did you fight up there? I fought in front for so long, and the little devil seemed to be desperate for his life. Even with artillery support, he couldn't suppress him!"

    Li Yunlong took a long puff of cigarette before saying: "Come on! Damn it, in this situation, the only way to break the little devil's defense is to rush forward. If you are afraid of those casualties, more people will die!"

    "You can do it! Our two brigades will work together to tear apart the little Japanese's defense line. When I came, the division commander had already sent a telegram. The 134th Division behind us has already come up. At that time, we will join forces to destroy the little Japanese's entire position.  Take it!"

    "good!"

    It was not easy to capture the second position of the Little Devil, because the Little Devil later sent a division of troops to reinforce the second line of defense.

    More than 40,000 people from the two little Japanese divisions and the third infantry division were fighting on this position.

    Later, when the 134th Division arrived, their fighting was at its most intense.

    At this time, the position was full of corpses, and artillery support, air support and other support had lost their effect.

    The only support is probably reinforcements.

    Tens of thousands of troops from both sides were fighting together, and many corpses were lying strewn about the position, including soldiers of the 88th Group Army and soldiers of the Little Japs.

    As the sun set slowly, Li Yunlong sat on the ground, lit a cigarette and smoked slowly. Soldiers were collecting the corpses of their own soldiers on the battlefield.

    "Brigade seat! The approximate casualty statistics of our brigade have been calculated!"

    Zhang Dabiao walked up to Li Yunlong wearing a black military uniform and said.

    "how?"

    "More than two thousand people died in battle, and the number of soldiers on hand is almost the same!"

    Li Yunlong didn¡¯t say anything. This was already more than half of the casualties!

    "Four thousand people! Da Biao, our brigade suffered four thousand casualties on the first battlefield! I am heartbroken!"

    Li Yunlong blew out a smoke ring, looked at Zhang Dabiao and said.

    "There is no other way. Our brigade has been playing vanguard today. We broke through two Japanese defense lines in one day. It is impossible even if there are not many casualties!"

    Li Yunlong didn¡¯t say anything after hearing this, he just looked at the little Japanese in the distance who was also collecting the corpse.

    Not all the Japs on the second line of defense have been eaten. Now they and the Japs occupy half of the position.

    "Get detailed statistics as soon as possible! Report it to the division headquarters. You also go down and let the brothers prepare. I think the superiors will transfer our brigade to the rear for repairs! More than half of the casualties were killed on the first day! The division commander has to beat people up.  ! Where¡¯s the Major General¡¯s command sword that I asked you to get? Have you got it yet?¡±

    "Yes! Wait a moment!"

    After a while, Zhang Dabiao came back, holding a major general's command knife.

    Li Yunlong took the command knife and started looking at it.

    "This command knife was from the first line of defense. When I found it, the little Japs had been killed by a bomb. It is probably because he was unlucky and was killed somewhere when our heavy bombers bombed. Otherwise,  It¡¯s really hard for us!¡±

    After looking at it, Li Yunlong put away the knife and said: "It's okay! Just one handful! I'll take it to the chief after the war! Lest they say that we, Old Li, can't fight!"

    "Brigade! No one will talk about it after today. We, a new recruit unit, managed to break through two lines of defense of the Japs in one day. This achievement is the first time in the recruit unit!"

    Li Yunlong smiled after hearing this, looked at Zhang Dabiao and said: "Dabiao! You have to take a long-term view"??point.  What is there to compare with a group of new recruits?  You have to compete with elite troops such as the 132nd Division, 133rd Division, and 134th Division!  We can defeat two enemy positions in one day. Maybe in today's situation, if we put it on someone else, even the little devils on the second line of defense will not be able to escape!  All must die!  Don't be so worthless!  "

    Nanjing, Eighty-Eighth Group Army Headquarters

    "Has the war situation in Wuxi direction been revealed?"

    Zhou Weiguo sat on a chair, lit a cigarette for himself and asked.

    "Just came out! They broke through two Little Japanese positions today. But it was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon when they broke through the second position. Later, when the 134th Division caught up to support, it was almost dark. So now the second position  On the defense line, our army and the little devils each occupy half!"

    Zhou Weiguo and Yang Jie were listening, He Yuchen was reading, and Jiang Baili was still sorting out telegrams from the Huaihe River area.

    "Breaking through two lines of defense in a row? The casualties may be quite large!"

    Zhou Weiguo asked after taking a puff of cigarette.

    "It's not small! Mainly, the Third Infantry Division suffered the most casualties! The number of soldiers killed alone reached nearly 4,000! Among them, Li Yunlong's 17th Brigade lost more than 2,300 people. There were also more than 2,000 injured soldiers.  The 17th Brigade has already suffered more than half its casualties!¡±

    Zhou Weiguo was not surprised at all when he heard this casualty data. He defeated two Japanese positions in one day and had to fight fiercely, but the price was increased casualties.

    "Give Li Yunlong power and tell him to take it easy and don't risk the lives of the soldiers in the attack! If you can't attack the place, call for air support and artillery support. In addition, the Third Infantry Division withdrew and let the 134th Division and the Second Infantry Division take over.  Go up and transfer the reinforcements from our local garrison to the Third Infantry Division, and then transfer soldiers from the security groups in various places to supplement the local garrison.

    After the Third Infantry Division was replenished, they were sent back to the battlefield, and all the wounded soldiers were sent to the field hospital in the rear.  Don't let them get hurt a second time!  "

    "Okay! I'll go and power the Third Infantry Division right away!"

    Zhou Weiguo nodded and continued to smoke cigarettes. The Eighty-Eighth Group Army is now fighting in several directions. The Air Force can also be said to be fighting continuously these days, but everyone knows that the war has just begun!

    Today¡¯s attack in the direction of Wuxi just caught the little devil by surprise.  After tomorrow starts, the war won't be so easy to fight!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
