At the flanking position of Dawenkou, the 12th Army Chief of Staff He Cuizhi, who was ashamed of being said by Zhou Xiaoshan, adjusted very quickly.

The firepower dragged behind the Teng County Security Force still scared him.

The Japanese permanent division has only eight heavy machine guns.

This inconspicuous security team actually has 18 Maxim.

The soldiers watched the eighteen machine guns, under the command of Zhou Xiaoshan, placed them in several key positions in the position, excitedly shoveling soil, working hard to deepen the trenches, and building positions.

The gunshots from the other side of the river were getting closer and closer. Zhou Xiaoshan knew very well that the direct company was sniping a small group of Japanese devils, hoping to attract more Japanese devils.

There is not much time left for them, only a dozen minutes. At this time, they are still digging their positions, and they are just grinding their guns in the face of battle.

"Brothers of the Third Army, you work hard and dig half a foot of trenches to survive the Japanese artillery. Would you like to listen to me?"

He Cuizhi was also a general who fought out from the warlord civil war.

Zhou Xiaoshan's words woke him up.

The reason why the preparations for this battle caused such a situation was because of morale. Commander Han was arrested at a high-level military meeting, which seriously damaged the morale of the 12th Army of the direct line.

At this time, the brothers of the 12th Army needed to boost morale even more.

He quickly walked to Zhou Xiaoshan and whispered.

"Adminton Zhou, I will first mobilize before the war. You can add something that is not good!"

Zhou Xiaoshan handed him the iron horn in his hand. It was perfect for him to mobilize before the war. He was the Sichuan Army and his orders in the Third Army were not justified.

"Brothers of the 12th Army, I am very ashamed today. The Japanese have entered our Shandong. More than half of Shandong has fallen. The Third Army, which should have been responsible for defending the territory, cannot stop the Japanese and cannot protect the people of Shandong. They are ashamed of the taxes paid by the people of Shandong over the years and also ashamed of the military pay for so many years."

"Brothers, think about the military pay I have received, and compare the construction of today's fortifications and battlefield preparations. Go and see how the Sichuan Army did it. Are you ashamed or not embarrassed!"

"I don't know if your blood is cold. Anyway, I'm embarrassed. Commander Han can't beat the Japanese, but our troops from all over China have come to help. I heard that it is not only the Central Army, Sichuan Army, but also the Gui Army, Gui Army, Yunnan Army, and Northwest Army!"

"Yes, the Sichuan Army is not a soldier raised by the people of Shandong, but they took the courage to die with the Japanese. Once they arrived in Shandong, they went north and took us to fight the Japanese. On this land in Shandong, they sprinkled blood on the battlefield and killed themselves. Compared with the brothers of the Sichuan Army who were specially prepared to fight with the Japanese, what about our faces in the 12th Army brothers?"

He Cuizhi said in just a few short passages that the soldiers who were busy building fortifications wanted to get into the trench.

Some people held the shovel tightly in shame and anger, as if they wanted to throw this humiliation away with the soil.

"You have seen the artillery attack just now. Brothers of Sichuan Army have taken the Japanese airport and are luring the Japanese brigade to attack. One of the Chinese army is to set up an ambush here and give the Japanese a good look! The Sichuan Army is not a coward, and they gather troops thousands of miles away to fight against the Japanese just to drive the Japanese out of China. Compared to the bravery and diligence of the Sichuan Army, the brothers of the 12th Army can only be described as cowards. Adjutant Zhou's words woke me up. From now on, I, the chief of staff, don't want to be a coward, what about you?"

"Don't be a coward!"

The roar was shocking, and Zhou Xiaoshan listened on the side, but he still felt that his morale was available.

"Indeed, the Japanese are elite, but they only have two shoulders to fight against one head. If they are shot, they will be broken, if they are robbed, they will die, and if they are injured, they will hurt. What we are not fire sticks, but weapons. In order to prevent the people, villagers and relatives behind us from being massacred and raped like Dawenkou Town on the other side of the river, do you dare to join me and fight with the Japanese!"

"Fight. Fight with the Japanese!"

"Good brother, today we will take the Japanese to the underworld road together and fight with them!"

After igniting, He Cuizhi was still capable. He mobilized in just a few minutes and ignited the entire army.

The roar of the military chief of staff were responding to the roar of the roar.

The soldiers of this era are so simple. As long as the generals have prestige and have good skills in inciting before the war, they will scream and fight desperately.

At this moment, the guards beside him pulled Zhou Xiaoshan's clothes.

Chu Tianshu's artillery group crossed the river. They dragged the horse, carrying guns on the horses and were running on the floating bridge.

A shrill whistle sounded in Zhou Xiaoshan's mouth again.

He ordered Qi Jun and Jiao Shouzhi.

Cover the artillery regiment and evacuate together.

Several positions also heard a whistle sound, and responded to Zhou Xiaoshan's orders that they were ready for battle.

"Chief of Staff He, stop excavating fortifications, check guns, load bullets and open safety, ready to respond to the enemy at any time!"

"Listen to the brothers of the 12th Army, all the reserves evacuated from the positions, and the main combat units entered the trenches to prepare for battle, and each regiment, battalion, and company commander were to check the combat preparations!"

All the fortifications can be changed in a short time. Since Zhou Xiaoshan arrived at this position and He Cuizhi got angry, the commander of the 12th Army and the battalion commander worked very hard.

There is no way to change any areas that cannot be changed. Time is limited, so just call it.

Anyway, it is the flanking position, with steep slopes and good terrain here. As long as the firepower is organized properly and the soldiers are in high morale, the Japanese will not have a great chance of coming up.

Besides, this place is too small, and Zhou Xiaoshan thinks that so many soldiers are nesting together, and if they are targeted by the Japanese Artillery Corps, they will suffer a great loss.

He Cuizhi followed the good side and retreated two regiments as reserve teams.

Fortunately, the 144th Division sent a batch of new towels and asked them to carry buckets. They had already been distributed. Even if the Japanese thought about this place as a breakthrough, the small amount of poisonous gas bombs fired by the grenade launcher could handle it.

"Adminton Zhou, the Japanese are here!"

"Many Japanese, the convoys on the other side of the river, at least one hundred cars, the leading turtle opened fire!"

"See it, it was an Japanese armored vehicle. They were afraid that they would accidentally hurt the floating bridge, so the tank did not fire!"

Listening to the orderly and guards chattering, Zhou Xiao wanted to kick him.

There were at least seven thousand Japanese soldiers coming.

It was almost the same as what he thought, and it was an elite infantry brigade.

When it comes to the Japanese chariot squadron, it is directly under the division, and how an infantry brigade drives the chariots over.

Come on, come on. The 168th Division's 37th war defense artillery, 20 mm caliber machine guns, m2 heavy machine guns, Italian mortars, and some are used to deal with these thin iron lumps. Don't try to scare the Sichuan army like scaring other Chinese troops.

Zhou Xiaoshan lay in the trench outside the 12th Army Command, holding the telescope hanging around his neck with his left hand, and touching his signal gun from his waist with his right hand.

He focused on staring at the Japanese brigade and came to cross the floating bridge in a fierce manner.

Chase towards the frontal defense of the retreat of the artillery regiment.

"Adminton Zhou, there are so many Japanese soldiers, but they can't get tens of thousands of people. Can we eat? If the battlefield is in a state of anxiety, the 10th Division in Dawenkou on the other side of the shore will come to reinforce again, and the Japanese artillery gang bombards the other side of the river and pulls 144 up, it will be difficult to fight this battle."

Looking at the car on the other side, the torches and the lights were brightly illuminated, He Cuizhi didn't know when he touched Zhou Xiaoshan and said with a worried look on his face.

According to the Sino-Japanese battlefield, the ratio of the Chinese army to the Japanese army usually takes one to ten to be sure to fight such an annihilation war.

There were 20,000 people in the 168th Division who set up an ambush to participate in the war, and their 12th Army had 20,000 people. The 147th Division strengthened a regiment of the 148th Division, with more than 10,000 people, and a total of less than 60,000.
