    After receiving the telegram from the theater headquarters, Li Guoyao was surprised but also felt entangled. Li Guoyao knew the kindness of the theater headquarters was to take care of him, but he could not accept such care.

    There are two reasons. The first is that he has deployed a large number of defensive positions outside Bengbu City. Those in front are just appetizers. The real trump cards that intend to kill the little devil are all outside Bengbu City. If they withdraw like this, their previous preparations will be useless.  All in vain.

    For Li Guoyao, killing Japanese soldiers not only means getting promoted and making a fortune, but also means system points and capital for future development.

    In order to defend Bengbu in this battle, Li Guoyao spent nearly 100,000 points. So far, he has only recovered more than 60,000 points. If he just withdraws like this, it will be a loss of blood!

    Li Guoyao has always been a person who only takes advantage and does not suffer losses. If he is asked to pinch his nose and give in, he really can't do it!

    Secondly, defending Bengbu is a task issued by the system. The standard is to defeat the Japs or hold on until April 15th.  Now that they have neither defeated the little devils nor persisted for the specified time, if they retreat, they will voluntarily give up the mission, and Li Guoyao will be greeted with terrible systematic punishment.

    Thinking of the vicious punishment measures of the system, Li Guoyao felt his scalp numb, so he could not withdraw no matter what.

    In view of this, Li Guoyao immediately ordered someone to send a report to the Third Theater Command, stating that the 7th Division was responsible for defending the territory and resisting the war, and would never and could not retreat.  In addition, their 7th Division has already made preparations for counterattack. If they cannot defeat the invading Japanese army, they are willing to coexist with Bengbu.

    After receiving the telegram from Li Guoyao, Commander Gu was angry, angry and impressed. He cursed Li Guoyao, a little bastard, at the headquarters for not understanding the overall situation.

    The three-pronged Japanese army has already approached Bengbu City. Once the encirclement is successful, he will not be able to escape even if he wants to.  Moreover, the Japanese army is at its peak, and it would be unwise to confront them head-on.

    "But he admired Li Guoyao's spirit of dedication to the country. The reason why China was defeated by the little devils was that, in addition to its own strength being inferior to the Japanese army, a very important reason was that the frontline generals were greedy and afraid of death.

    For example, during the Nanjing Defense War, most of the officers, including Tang Shengzhi, had already withdrawn before the city was broken. Examples like this have been common in the more than half a year since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War. It is really possible to risk life and death like Li Guoyao.  There are very few people outside Yu Du, and the only ones who can be named are Zhao Dengyu, Tong Linge, Wang Mingzhang and so on.

    Li Guoyao didn't appreciate his kindness, but as the commander-in-chief of the third theater, he couldn't ignore it. After all, the Seventh Division was now quite famous. Many people at home and abroad were watching this unit. If it was really wiped out by the little devils,  , that will definitely cause a shock.

    In view of this, the Third Theater Command immediately called the 8th Security Brigade in Fuyang to immediately leave for the Bengbu front line to reinforce the 7th Division.

    At the same time, after inquiring about the ammunition reserves of the 7th Division, the theater headquarters immediately sent a transportation team to transport a batch of ammunition to the 7th Division.  In the words of Chief Gu, the weapons and equipment are gone, but the ammunition can still provide some support.

    Li Guoyao naturally refused to accept anyone who came, and asked for as much as he wanted!

    ¡°However, just in case, Chief Gu reported Li Guoyao¡¯s refusal to evacuate Bengbu to Wuhan.

    The telegram was quickly delivered to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. After reading the contents of the telegram, the old man frowned!  Although he also understands the importance of Bengbu, it is obvious that Bengbu cannot be defended now. The seventh division staying there is just giving death to the Japs, which is really not worth it.

    After only a few minutes of consideration, Chairman Chiang asked Wang Shihe to personally send a report to Li Guoyao's headquarters in his name, ordering the 7th Temporary Division to immediately withdraw to Fuyang for rest and recuperation without any mistakes.

    This old man felt good about himself and thought that as the chairman of the committee, he personally sent the report. I guess Li Guoyao would not resist.

    But Chairman Chiang's face soon turned livid. It was not that the Seventh Division dared to disobey his order, but that they simply refused to answer telegrams from Wuhan. The operator in the attendant's room said that the Seventh Division dared to disobey his order.  The division entered radio silence, and he could not find the signal from the No. 7 Division radio station.

    With this operation, even Wang Shihe felt a twitch on his face. The situation on the front line is indeed urgent, but your 7th Division is not in a marching state. What kind of bullshit radio silence state has it entered now?

    ¡°This is obviously because he no longer wants to accept the instructions from above. As expected of an officer from the Northeast Army, no one else has such courage.

    The old man is helpless this time. No matter how powerful you are, you can¡¯t do anything if they don¡¯t accept your telegram. You can¡¯t just do it.This way, let¡¯s label the Seventh Division as disobedient on the battlefield!

    In desperation, the old man could only call the headquarters of the Third War Zone Commander and try his best to support the 7th Division as much as possible. At the very least, they would not be completely annihilated by the Japs.

    Chiang Kai-shek could not help it. The Seventh Division was the heroic unit he held in one hand and a flag for the national war of resistance.  If this flag falls, it will definitely be a major blow to the anti-war enthusiasm across the country.

    After rejecting the kind offer from above, Li Guoyao immediately ordered someone to send over the casualty statistics for the past few days. After reading the casualty reports sent by each unit, Li Guoyao fell silent.

    So far, the total casualties of the 7th Division have exceeded 16,000, including more than 8,600 killed and more than 7,000 injured.

    And it is not yet time for a decisive battle, so it is conceivable that if the bayonets of both sides see red, the casualties of the troops may be beyond imagination.

    But there is no other way, the matter has come to this, the only thing he can do is to persist!

    After evacuating all the wounded to Huaiyuan and Guzhen behind, Li Guoyao began to shrink his troops. The main force of the Duba Brigade and some new troops withdrew to Bengbu City, while the Dujiu and Dujiu Brigades totaled more than 13,000 people.  He was transferred by Li Guoyao to Taoshan, southwest of Bengbu, to hide on the front line.

    Firstly, it is because Bengbu City itself is not big. Sixteen thousand people is already the limit. If there are more troops in the city, the density of troops will be too high. Once the Japanese army carries out artillery shelling or bombing, the losses will be too great.

    Secondly, Li Guoyao needed to deploy a force outside the city as a surprise force and as a counterattack force.

    Now the Japs have slowly mobilized all the defenders in Chu County. According to the information collected by the intelligence department, there are less than 3,000 Japanese troops left in Chu County, and they are scattered in Chu County, Nanqiao,  Lai'an, Pukou and other places are definitely a good opportunity for the defenders.

    It¡¯s just that in Li Guoyao¡¯s view, the little devil¡¯s spirit has not been worn away yet, and it is still too early to fight back, but you still have to be prepared!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
