Chapter 537 The fierce battle begins
Hu Bin had just finished issuing the order, and a telegrapher said that the political commissar had called. Hu Bin reached out to pick it up and looked at it.`
After reading the telegram, Hu Bin thought about it carefully and said to another correspondent: "Telephone to the political commissar, the people should evacuate, first evacuate women and children, and tell the people that we will rebuild the destroyed houses, please leave with us with confidence.
In addition, when opening the military ration warehouse, we are responsible for all the food and food for the people during this period. Remember to cooperate with the Chief of Staff’s actions. In order to reduce casualties, we must gradually retreat. The other is to attract the Japanese to come over, lengthen the Japanese offensive line and the supply line. Therefore, when arranging the retreat, we must communicate with the Chief of Staff in time!" Hu Bin said to the correspondent.
The correspondent recorded it, Hu Bin signed it, and the telegram was out immediately.
At this time, on Yan'an, the commander had already obtained information and the Japanese troops were already marching towards Hu Bin.
"This little brat, the Japanese are here, and they still don't forget to take revenge? The 30,000 Japanese troops, what did this boy think?" the commander said anxiously.
He didn't know what Hu Bin was thinking. What he could do now was to believe Hu Bin. Because Hu Bin had discussed with the Commander-in-Chief to beat Jiang Dingwen, it was definitely not as simple as revenge, and there must be a backup plan behind him. Hu Bin did this matter so impulsively, so the commander didn't scold Hu Bin now.
But when he saw the Japanese attacking Hu Bin, the commander was anxious. Hu Bin was not in command of the 30,000 Japanese troops, so he was not in command of the commander. Now he was dead? With Hu Bin at the commander, the commander could feel at ease. Because Hu Bin created several miracles, the commander trusted Hu Bin in his heart and knew that he would definitely have a way to resolve the crisis. The key is that Hu Bin is not in the commander now!
"I really don't understand. What is Xiaobin going to do? Hey, it's a life-threatening thing. That bastard is not good. Once the war comes, all the plans will not be told in advance, just to worry us. And this time, I see what he will do!" The commander-in-chief was also quite anxious because he didn't know what Hu Bin was planning.
"Report, according to our information, it seems that Li Dalong's troops also followed Hu Bin to the front line!" At this time, a secretary came to the office and said to the commander and others.
"What? Li Dalong has gone too, didn't he stop? Why did he go again?" The commander stood up in surprise when he heard this, and said to the secretary.
"I don't know. The information is here!" The secretary came over with the information and handed it to the commander. The other people in the office looked at the commander in discomfort. The commander had called Li Dalong to stop, but now Li Dalong has actually gone to the front line, which is even more deadly.
"No, no, right! Li Dalong is not such an impulsive person. I know him, a little arrogant, but not impulsive. Now that he can go to war with Hu Bin, it means that he believes in Hu Bin, I feel relieved." The commander sat down and felt relieved as he said.
"That's right. I feel relieved that you said this. Li Dalong was able to follow him, which means that Xiaobin convinced him that he must have any plans. Otherwise, go and ask Li Dalong and find out his words?" The commander-in-chief asked as he looked at the commander.
"Okay, or I can't sleep!" The commander stood up and walked outside.
Soon, the telegram arrived at Li Dalong. When Li Dalong saw the telegram that was the commander, he thought about it. Hu Bin told him last night that he must not tell the commander, but the commander is asking what's going on!
"Huh, what should I do? You send a telegram to the commander and say, please believe Hu Bin!" Li Dalong exhaled and said to the guard beside him.
"Yes!" The guard nodded, stopped the car and walked back.
"Please believe Hu Bin! Hiss, this kid probably has a backup plan!" After seeing the commander-in-chief holding Li Dalong back, he nodded and said.`
"I guess so, so I must have a backup plan. We don't know what this kid is playing, so we can only wait and cooperate with Chongqing to condemn Hu Bin. This bastard probably will hold a grudge against us again!" The commander nodded and said, really not worried. After getting such a sentence from Li Dalong, he felt much more relieved.
It was past 7 pm and it was almost dark. Hu Bin's troops had arrived at the frontier positions in Shangluo and the troops had also launched, but there was no action. They had to wait for the operation of the special forces regiment. Moreover, the troops had been driving for an afternoon of car and had not had enough food yet, so they needed a rest!
At this time, the Japanese troops had already exchanged fire from Hu Bin's troops. On Yingcheng, the Japanese took the lead in attacking and dispatched bombers to launch a large bombing of Zheng Xin's troops of the 1o5th Division.
Then came the artillery bombardment. After the bombing, the Japanese infantry came up, but they had been repairing this line of defense for more than half a year. Facing the Japanese bombing, their casualties were not very large. Now seeing the Japanese infantry coming up, the troops of the 1o3rd Division attacked the Japanese head-on, causing the Japanese to drop 1ooo many bodies and retreat.
Then the Japanese bombarded again. The Japanese kept attacking fiercely, and the infantry gangs were rotating to launch fierce attacks on Zheng Xin's troops. From 5 pm to 7 pm, the Japanese charged three times and left behind 4ooo many bodies.
It was dark and the Japanese stopped fighting. Zheng Xin asked someone to clean the battlefield. Then the Japanese fired a white flag and came to collect the corpses. It was summer now. If they didn't collect the corpses, they would have no way to fight tomorrow, and the corpses would smell tomorrow. Zheng Xin was also counting casualties.
"Most of the people who were paralyzed were killed by bombing, and more than 27oo people were killed. When the infantry was fighting, there were never more casualties!" Cao Liang, the chief of staff of the 1o3 Division, started to curse.
"So, we played 1 to 1?" Zheng Xin asked.
"It looks like 1 to 1. It will be a hard day tomorrow. According to the command of the command, we must persist until the evening after tomorrow. We will only be able to retreat to the second line of defense in the evening after tomorrow!" Cao Liang said.
"There are two divisions below, and they will hold on for two and a half days. Made and the Japanese will attack in turn tomorrow. The reserve troops must be prepared!" Zheng Xin said.
"A 32oo reserve team came up behind. If it is not enough, we will continue to mobilize?" Cao Liang asked.
"No, I can't be transferred. It's not the worst time yet. Wait, let's talk about it. Now we can still hold on, and the Japanese will not have a good time tomorrow. Unless they beat me for a day, I will be convinced and admit defeat. I see how much ammunition they have. By the way, do you know where the Japanese will rest?" Zheng Xin asked.
"I know, our artillery battalion can be reached!" Cao Liang said.
"Then let's shoot. Artillery can't fire during the day, but it's okay to fire it at night. Blow me up and kill one less. That is, our artillery battalion has fewer large-caliber cannons. If it's a little more, order them to fire it? The Japanese fired during the day and we fired it at night. There's nothing to say. By the way, can we hit the Japanese artillery position?" Zheng Xin asked.
"No, the Japanese are very treacherous. Their artillery positions are beyond the range of our artillery! However, the Japanese artillery can't kill our artillery either." Cao Liang shook his head and said.
"Then just fight and order them to fire!" Zheng Xin said.
"Yes!" Cao Liang nodded and immediately went to order.
After 10 minutes, the 1o3 artillery battalion began to fire and launched artillery bombardment at the place where the Japanese were resting. There were not many artillery and many places were not bombed. Therefore, many Japanese were able to successfully retreat beyond the range of artillery bombing, but it was not bad. The bombardment killed 2ooo many Japanese and injured many of them.
On other defense lines, they were almost doing the same thing, just bombarding the Japanese. In the other four directions, the Japanese attacked in the afternoon.
"Brother Bin, Chief of Staff Telegram, today's war damage report!" Mo She handed the telegram to Hu Bin sitting there for dinner.
Hu Bin heard it, took it, turned on the flashlight, and looked at it carefully. After reading it, Hu Bin handed the telegram to Mo She and asked him to put it away.
"How was the fight?" Li Dalong asked looking at Hu Bin.
"It's okay, better than I thought. At 4 pm this afternoon, the Japanese started to attack 66 continuously. Our entire casualties were about 20,000, of which 11 ooo were sacrificed!" Hu Bin said.
"It's just the beginning, there are so many casualties, is it okay?" Li Dalong said to Hu Bin.
"Tomorrow is the most intense day. The Japanese will definitely attack fiercely, but they will not be able to do so later, so it is understandable that they have suffered heavy casualties now. However, they have also killed many Japanese. Eliminate the current artillery bombardment and basically achieved 1 to 1, which is quite good. It is very good to be able to shoot this without taking advantage of air and artillery.
However, it is probably enough for the Japanese to drink a pot tonight. They would not have thought that we would shell them at night!" Hu Bin said while sitting there.
"If we calculate based on the current casualties, we may not have many troops in a week!" Li Dalong said to Hu Bin.
"You can't calculate that. The Japanese are now in a strong position and have sufficient weapons and ammunition. However, once they suffer heavy casualties, the attack will be much smaller. The Japanese soldiers are not machines, so they can fight like this every day!" Hu Bin looked at him and shook his head and said.
"Hey! Made, the Japanese are really fucking untrustworthy!" Li Dalong cursed in a sigh.
"Don't count on this matter. If you count on this, you might as well count on pies falling from the sky. This is even more likely!" Hu Bin heard it and sneered. (To be continued.)
