I heard that I was going to retreat, but the officers and soldiers did not respond as fiercely as the officers.

Of course, some people also muttered that they didn't want to leave, such as Lao Hei, who died here in battle, as if he left alive, but he was just not willing to give him a favor.

However, most of the officers and soldiers are ordinary people after all. When the war comes, they can ignore life and death. That is because they have robes to watch and do not fight, and they die faster. But when they hear that there is an order to retreat on the top of the mountain, they don’t have to die in this Jedi, but in fact, most of them are happy.

Tang Dao called his three platoon leaders into his command room on the second floor one by one. Niu Er and Yang Xiaoshan stood at the door. No one except the person involved knew what Tang Dao and the three infantry platoon leaders told him.

After explaining to his three platoon leaders, Tang Dao asked Niu Er to invite the commander of the machine cannon company Lei Xiong. The two company commanders discussed in the command room for at least half an hour.

This is also normal. As the first company and the machine gun company that is responsible for fire protection through the Suzhou Bridge, it would be abnormal if the two company commanders did not communicate tactical arrangements before the war.

Although the main purpose of the Major General Chief of Staff came to the warehouse was to be the "messenger" of the commander, he was at least one of the direct commanders of the 524th Regiment. Accompanied by the Army Lieutenant Colonel, he went to various companies for inspection and condolences, and visited the firepower points of the Xiasihang Warehouse.

From this perspective, this veteran soldier who graduated from the Japanese non-commissioned officer school knew why the more than 400 people under his command could beat the Japanese army in an infantry corps so badly.

All the secrets lie in the construction of firepower points by the warehouse guards.

The strong warehouse wall is a pain point for the Japanese army, but if you rely on the strong walls, the defense actually has more defense and insufficient offense for the defenders.

However, the firepower points in the warehouse did not hide behind the strong walls as they imagined, and they dared to go out.

For example, the roof was used well and field fortifications were built in the open area of ​​the shooting world. The torrents of steel sprayed out by the machine guns and mortars hidden inside were definitely the sharp arrows that the Japanese invaders hated the most, no doubt about.

For example, the front-line trenches they spent a lot of effort to build seemed a bit unnecessary, but the shooting from here would definitely allow the Japanese army to fall afoot when launching a charge, and would also allow the Japanese army who dared to cross this trench to never have the chance to turn around and escape.

Putting aside the firepower outside the building, the inverted triangle ambush firepower point in the building also opened the eyes of the Major General of the Army. It was not how vicious the firepower was, but how dare you treat your position as a trap, and you must have enough courage first.

If all of these were written by Xie Jinyuan, then he would be even better than the ones he evaluated in the divisional department archives, and growing into a general of the army was just around the corner.

However, the Army Lieutenant Colonel was obviously not a greedy person. Seeing that the Chief of Staff praised the construction of fortifications and firepower points, he naturally pushed the Tang sword out.

"Tang Dao?" The major general's face was not abnormal, but he recalled this name that was strange but had a little impression in his mind.

As the chief of staff of the first division, he was familiar with battalion-level officers at most. Among the company-level officers, except for Lei Xiong, who were famous, they were not known.

Immediately, he finally remembered that two days ago, Xie Jinyuan specially generated a power to ask the division headquarters for the second lieutenant named Tang Dao, and asked the division headquarters to promote him to the first-level military rank to become a lieutenant.

It was his decision. In order to inspire the morale of the 524th regiment, he agreed and recorded it in the archives.

Now it seems that just because of the ability of the firepower points and fortifications he led the design, this military achievements were not at all humid.

This is because the Army Lieutenant Colonel was afraid that this person would like Tang Dao, so he deliberately concealed the super military achievements of Tang Dao's killing dozens of Japanese invaders alone. Otherwise, this pair of eyes might have jumped to the opposite Japanese position and wandered around before coming back.

"Good boy, when the Central People brings you back to the Jianshe Division, I will give you a battalion for you to take." Even so, the Army Major General also praised Tang Dao very much. Not only promised to continue to be promoted, but he even tidied up the collar for Tang Dao who stood straight in front of him and patted his shoulders to show encouragement.

As for Tang Dao's original identity as a Sichuan Army, this person also chose to ignore it.

I'm going to be promoted to major? Shangguan Yun, who was accompanying him, was stunned.

Perhaps only Tang Dao was sighing slightly.

The person in front of him is absolutely smart.

Isn’t this the so-called “a thousand gold buys horse bones”? Isn’t it like this? I’m afraid there will be some mistakes in withdrawing troops, so I just used the reason for military achievements to draw a big pie to the backbone who made great contributions, so that it would naturally be for the other officers to see. As long as I can retreat according to orders, everyone has the opportunity to be promoted.

Of course, this is a big cake. If you want to lead a battalion, you have to be promoted to a school official. At least you have to be recognized by the War Zone Command. It cannot be decided by a division chief.

The guards that should be alerted in the warehouse, and the ones that should be packaged, except for explosives and a large amount of unfinished potatoes, the soldiers can basically bring them with them.

At 3 a.m., as the bonfire in a room on the second floor was lit, the flashlight on the opposite bank flashed three times as agreed, indicating that the concession troops were ready to pick up the warehouse defenders into the concession through the Suzhou River Bridge.

To show sincerity, the concession troops fired three flares above the Suzhou River from field fortifications south of the Suzhou River. The slowly falling flares were enough to illuminate the Japanese positions on both wings of the warehouse.

From the telescope's vision, it can be clearly seen that this time, no light and heavy machine guns were deployed on the Japanese positions, and there were no Japanese infantry even in the front-line trenches.

"Cross the river!" Lieutenant Colonel of the Army put down his telescope and ordered decisively.

In accordance with the military order of the Army Lieutenant Colonel, the Second Company took the lead and with the help of the night to climb out of the warehouse building and cross the Suzhou River Bridge with equipment. Battalion Commander Yang Ruifu personally led the team.

After all the Second Company entered the concession, Deputy Battalion Commander Shangguan Yun led the Third Company to carry the bodies of soldiers who died in battle during the day and injured soldiers, and cover a machine gun company carrying heavy machine guns and mortars, and quickly ran across the Suzhou River.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! Major General of the Army and Lieutenant Colonel of the Army are two of the highest-ranking officers in the warehouse guards. Instead, they did not follow the large army to enter the concession first, but chose to stay until the end, which also reflects the strong spirit of the commander of the Imperial Guard.

Although there are no heavy machine guns deployed on the Japanese positions, the crisis still exists. Heavy machine guns can be carried out from the trenches at any time.

At present, the main force of the warehouse has crossed the river. If the Japanese army ignores the so-called agreement and attacks, the higher the risk will be.

"Qin Ruoyu, take your second row and escort the two commanders across the river!" Tang Dao roared softly.

"Company Commander! Ruoyu and the second platoon don't want to leave first." Qin Ruoyu, the second platoon leader, suddenly stubbornly resisted the order.

"Bastard! This is a military order, not a vegetable market that you bargain." Tang Dao was furious.

The young lieutenant raised his head and his eyes were filled with tears, and he said nothing.

Tang Dao looked up at the hole, glanced at the slightly trembling ears of the "hammer" lying at his feet, couldn't help but sigh slightly, and reached out to pat the young lieutenant's shoulder:

"The safety of the two commanders is up to you. You and the second row have a great responsibility. Let's leave quickly. The Japanese army may have deployed machine guns. If they don't leave, it will be too late. We will definitely see you again in the future."

"Company Commander, don't lie to me and the second row." Qin Ruoyu, who stood straight, saw the major general and the army lieutenant colonel coming here with the company of the guards, and tears finally flowed down his eyes.

"I promise!" Tang Dao suddenly opened his arms and hugged this comrade-in-arms who was not good at expressing emotions.

"First company, prepare for the battle!"
