    In the battle at Fujin Mountain, apart from Bai Chongxi, the most gratifying person was Sun Lianzhong.

    Sun Lianzhong himself actually had no idea about this battle. After all, the strength gap between the two sides was really big. With 100,000 miscellaneous soldiers facing off against 100,000 elite Japanese troops, it was hard to imagine what would happen.

    But Jiren has his own destiny. No one thought that in such a crisis-ridden situation, Song Xilian would find such a geomantic treasure in Fujin Mountain.

    After this week of fighting, although the 71st Army suffered a lot of losses, the little Japanese did not gain any advantage. It is said that there were thousands of Japanese corpses that were too late to be restrained in the forward positions.

    After receiving the telegram from Song Xilian's headquarters, Sun Lianzhong was surprised and relieved. In the battle of Taierzhuang, their Second Army was the main force, and his old army, the 31st Division, was stationed in Taierzhuang.

    And it was in that battle that his Second Army suffered heavy losses. The Japanese army responsible for the attack at that time was the current Japanese Second Army.

    So after the Battle of Taierzhuang, Sun Lianzhong had already made a wish in his heart to the souls of the undead from the Central Plains. In future battles, he must let the little devils of the 2nd Army sacrifice their blood and repay with their lives.

    Now, the Song and Tian armies have caused the Japanese 2nd Army¡¯s main offensive force, the 13th Division, to lose more than half and thousands of people were killed or injured. This cannot but make him feel comforted from the bottom of his heart.

    Of course, he didn't say this to anyone, and he couldn't say it. After all, it was not his Northwest Army that took the lead this time, but the direct lineage of the Central Army.

    ?????????????????? But his old Sun remembered this. It was Song Xilian¡¯s troops who avenged their Northwest Army, and he remembered this favor.

    However, not everyone is in a good mood. At least Song Xilian, the commander of the 71st Army on the frontline battlefield, is not in a good mood. In the past few days, the whole army has been fighting desperately, and they have indeed repelled dozens of attacks by the Japs.  The 13th Division of the Little Japanese was severely damaged, but its own casualties were also very heavy.

    So far, the 36th Division, his starting unit, has lost more than half, but the battle has only started a week ago. The little devil reinforcements are constantly pouring into Fujin Mountain, and a larger and more brutal battle is about to begin.

    Yesterday, the commander of the 36th Division sent the casualty statistics of the troops to the military headquarters. After reading the message, Song Xilian did not close his eyes all night, his mind was filled with the battle on the front line and the heavy casualties of the troops.

    Song Xilian is also very clear about the current battle. He does not blame Sun Lianzhong for putting his 71st Army in this position, because he knows that Sun Lianzhong is also forced to have no choice.

    Due to Commander Bai's command error, he misjudged the direction of the Japanese army's attack. As a result, there were not many troops in the places where heavy troops should be deployed, and the places where heavy troops were not needed were overcrowded. At present, Commander-in-Chief Sun Lian and Zhongsun had to move the troops fighting against the Japanese troops on the North Road.  All the burden fell on their 71st Army.

    Recalling that when he received the combat order from the Corps Headquarters a few days ago, Song Xilian was so nervous and excited that he couldn't sleep all night.

    He was thinking about his deployment over and over again, thinking about the strengths and weaknesses of the entire defense line of the 71st Army.  He wanted to know where his opponent Tanaka Shizuichi would throw his main force and which position he would launch an assault on.

    But he is not Tanaka Shizuichi, and he can only guess everything by himself.

    However, the slightest difference can make a huge difference. For example, Commander Bai, as a famous military counselor, the name "Little Zhuge" is definitely not blown out, but even so, he still lost on the issue of the direction of the Japanese army's main attack.  Little devil.

    This is not to say that Chief Bai is incompetent, but because he is a defender. From a military perspective, he is always passive.

    No matter whether it is the time of attack or the direction of attack, he has no initiative and can only be decided by the opponent.  Wherever the Japanese attack, he has to defend, and he must also coordinate the overall situation.

    Because of this, Commander Bai was extremely passive by the Japanese army in the previous battle.

    Fortunately, they have grabbed the little devil by the throat, making him unable to move forward or retreat, and they can only use their lives to fill the gap.

    However, Song Xilian was still very worried, because in the entire battle outside Wuhan, the Chinese army had an absolute advantage in strength, while the Japanese had an absolute advantage in firepower and the quality of their soldiers.

    But only in Fujin Mountain, the Japanese army has an absolute advantage in every aspect. The only advantage of the 71st Army is the terrain.

    "Compared to the Nanjing defense battle a few months ago, the Fujinshan battlefield was more thrilling, and he had to defend it. It can be said that Chief Bai forced Sun Lianzhong to a dead end, and Sun Lianzhong forced Song Xilian to a dead end.

    The current situation is that if the 71st Army cannot stand on the front line of Mount FujinThe Japanese have been waiting for more than ten days, and those second-line defenders that have not yet been deployed and mobilized will not be able to contain the momentum of the Japanese attack.

    Once the second line of defense is broken, it will be more difficult for the third line of defense to gain a foothold, and the Japanese army may rush to the gates of Wuhan.

    ¡°In this case, not only the Wuhan battle that China had been planning for months would end in a disastrous defeat, but also the 100,000 Chinese troops on both sides of the Yangtze River would be surrounded by the Japanese army.

    If this is true, the Chinese army will be severely weakened, and the Chinese government will also be discredited with its rapid military defeat. The consequences will be simply disastrous.

    Therefore, it can be said that Fujin Mountain is currently in the most critical position of the entire army, and the reason why this position is critical is due to the strategic mistakes of the Fifth War Zone Commander's Department. If Fujin Mountain is defended, there is still room for struggle in the overall situation.  Otherwise, everything is lost.

    Fortunately, the soldiers on the front line were hardworking enough and relied on the steep terrain to block the Japs' powerful frontline at Mount Fujin for a week.

    However, the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army is not just exaggerated. After a week of bloody battles, the 36th Division suffered more than half of its casualties, almost all its light and heavy weapons were destroyed, and its ammunition consumption was also very serious. If this continued, he was really worried that the 36th Division might be eliminated.

    After pondering for a long time, Song Xilian decided to go to the 36th Division headquarters to take a look at the situation on the front line.

    After speaking to the guard battalion commander, Song Xilian went straight to the 36th Division headquarters under the protection of a company of soldiers.

    The headquarters of the 36th Division is located on the back of the top of Mount Fujin. The journey was very hard.

    Standing on the top of the mountain, Song Xilian raised his eyes and looked into the distance. The peaceful land was awakened by bursts of busy footsteps and the neighing of cars and horses.

    In the low-lying areas at the bottom of the mountain, in the groves, and in private villages, the khaki-colored figures of Japanese soldiers are hurriedly mobilizing, while below the front-line positions, the bodies of the Japanese dead are everywhere.

    Because the defenders were in a condescending position, the Japs did not dare to get too close. Therefore, the battle lasted for a week, and the Japs never collected the bodies once.

    The temperature in Mount Fujin is already very low in October, but it is still far from freezing. A body left in the wilderness for a week will inevitably rot and stink. There is a disgusting rotten smell under Mount Fujin.  Stink.

    After looking through the binoculars for a while, Song Xilian was in a very bad mood, because he saw that there were still a lot of Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain. Although he couldn't count how many there were, there should be no less than two infantry regiments, and there were also  A large number of technical arms.

    After a week of bloody fighting, the Japanese army was littered with corpses, but they still had such a strong force, which made Song Xilian feel depressed.

    Putting down the telescope in his hand, Song Xilian turned around and walked into the headquarters of the 36th Division with a worried look on his face!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
