Base System of Bashu Heroes

At the same time, Liu Ling, who had retreated to Dangtu, looked at the river with longing eyes. There was only a small steamer borrowed by Feng Huaizhu going back and forth on the river. The small fishing boat was upstream and could not arrive.

One-third of the fishing boats had been destroyed by Japanese artillery fire. Even if they arrived, it would be a drop in the bucket. Liu Ling's 794th Regiment blocked and followed the Japanese troops. The battle was extremely difficult. They had asked for help several times. Liu Ling hurriedly walked back and forth by the river, feeling angry.

At this time, at the Wulong Mountain position, Liu Tianchu had directed the engineer battalion left by Chen Jiaqi to build a pontoon bridge under the position under the cover of night. At the same time, the Wulong Mountain and Shogunate positions, under the command of Jiang Hui'an, launched an offensive across the board, overwhelming the Japanese troops in one go.

Pressed back more than ten miles.

The Japanese army was suppressed. While the 133rd Division retreated, the Japanese artillery fire once again covered the top of Wulong Mountain above Liu Tianchu. This indiscriminate bombardment probably consumed as much ammunition as the previous firepower combined.

The man was knocked down by the shock, and the smoke and dust rising from his head completely covered the retreating troops by the river.

The smoke and explosive dust made the sky above the soldiers seem to have fallen into deep twilight. The Chutian Stick was probably hit by the explosive rocks, and a bloody forehead appeared in Liu Tianchu's field of vision, and he hurried towards him.

At this time, Jiang Hui'an shouted into the intercom: "Engineer camp, detonate according to the original plan!" After shouting, he fainted and disappeared on the mountain line. Liu Tianchu looked at him in shock, wondering what the original plan he was talking about was?

Chu Tianbang was probably confused by the shock. He suddenly jumped up next to Liu Tianchu, raised his gun at the very familiar position of the flames emitted by the Japanese army, and then said in an extremely familiar voice, "Kill the motherfucker!"

Tianbang made a mistake again. Liu Tianchu grabbed him with his hands and shouted at him: "Secure the defense! Secure the defense!"

Therefore, Liu Tianchu and the soldiers who had withdrawn from the forward position once again crawled towards the fortifications on the riverside position using their hands and feet. Facing the rising dust and smoke, the half-exploded rifle butt almost ripped open his head.

When Liu Tianchu climbed to the riverside to build fortifications, the sound of artillery stopped, and then there was a sound more terrifying than the sound of artillery - the roar of mountains and tsunami-like explosions echoed in the mountains and river valleys, seemingly everywhere, and the soldiers and Liu Tianchu once again endured the eardrums.

They saw very clearly that the explosion was emanating from the entire mountain range facing them, from one mountain to another, and mushroom clouds rose from almost any mountain peak within sight.

"What is Jiang Hui'an doing?" Liu Tianchu asked dazedly.

No one answered him, everyone was shocked.

The hills around the Wulongshan position are like human fingers, with a piece of nail cut off at the tip of each finger. The roar of falling rocks and impact is more powerful than the sound of artillery.

The leading troops had already crossed the river on the floating bridge, and Liu Tianchu suddenly seemed to understand that Jiang Hui'an was blowing up the mountain to block the road. When Liu Tianchu, Tianbang, and Ronghua climbed to the top of Wulong Mountain again without being blocked by the line of peaks, they saw that they were blocked by rocks.

The Japanese offensive that Wulongshan had to face outside was not only the tide of shouts of long live, but also the dense figures flashing in the forest, and these were just the top of what the flares could see. The Japanese army had assembled such a huge force.

Troops, you can grab them even with your toes. This is an offensive that will be difficult to stop even if all the troops of the Sichuan Army gather at Wulong Mountain.

There were no shots fired at the Wulongshan position, not even the Sky Rod, because it was a far distance and there was no need to waste ammunition. There was another one, and everyone was stunned.

Liu Tianchu, who had come back to his senses, looked at Jiang Hui'an in confusion, and his voice seemed to come from a dream: "How did you think of it..."

Jiang Hui'an was also shaken to death by the sound of artillery. He also replied in a confused voice: "The Japanese army has gathered more than 50,000 people. It is enough to surround Wulong Mountain ten levels. Bombing the mountain is the only way..."

It is indeed a good method, which can effectively block the Japanese army for several hours. No one on the position responded, only the roar of an alternative language coming from the distance. Jiang Hui'an saved the 133rd Division, and every soldier of the 133rd Division will remember it.

In my heart, no words are better than ten thousand words...

On the river, the troops crossing the river were moving quickly in double columns on the temporary pontoon bridge. The Japanese ships on the river were still firing blindly in the darkness. The shells fell in the water around the pontoon bridge, causing waves in the water.

At the same time, the 21st Army and the 23rd Army, which were the first to cross the river, had assembled in Lianyungang. At the Lianyungang Pier Headquarters, Pan Wenhua and Tang Shizun were quarreling again. "Why didn't Liu Tianchu personally give the order, but let you deliver it?"

"Tang Shizun asked Pan Wenhua loudly.

Pan Wenhua angrily pointed at Tang Shizun and retorted: "Tianchu didn't want to embarrass your uncle, so he asked me to convey it. I'll give you enough face, don't be ignorant of good and evil."

"Uncle?" Tang Shizun was stunned for a moment and stared at Pan Wenhua suspiciously. "He called me uncle?"

Pan Wenhua said angrily: "You are worthy of being a brother to the Commander-in-Chief. Why don't you call me uncle? Do you think everyone is like you? You are a self-righteous little chicken. You have snitched to Minister He and forced the Commander-in-Chief to marry several times. Do you think everyone doesn't know?"

?Tianchu doesn’t know?” Pan Wenhua said a little sadly.

"This...this..." Tang Shizun had a gloomy face, and after a while he softened his tone and said, "I have a prejudice against him...but..."

"But what?" Pan Wenhua was very excited now, and opened his mouth to interrupt him. "In order to take into account your feelings, Tianchu did not give you the order directly, but asked me to pass it on. He asked me to inform you that the Japanese Navy's Fourth Fleet came from Qingdao

Set off to prepare for the attack on Lianyungang, let you prepare early, Tianchu will be honest with you, and what about you?"

Tang Shizun was a little slumped and stood aside without saying a word.

Pan Wenhua continued: "As Nanjing retreated, your army was the first to cross the river. Those who covered the retreat were the 133rd Division and the 134th Division. One was Tianchu's old superior Jiang Hui'an, and the other was his immediate relative Liu Ling.

, comparing my feelings to my own, would you do this if it were you?"

"He is a madman!" Tang Shizun also retorted. "You can say that I have a prejudice against him, you can say that I am petty. We don't say that he is the executioner who ruined the Sichuan Army, but he led us crazy on the territory of the Japanese army. Sooner or later we will be killed by him.

Killed."

Pan Wenhua was silent for a moment. "It's hard to know one's self in life, and a scholar will die for one who knows one's self. What else do you want! Only those who can distinguish right from wrong can be regarded as a good man in Bashu."

Tang Shizun was choked by him: "...he can distinguish right from wrong...you said he is a confidant?"

Pan Wenhua didn't hear what he said at all. He was still immersed in the silent conversation between Liu Tianchu and the Chairman. What Liu Tianchu said was what he wanted to say, but he didn't dare to say it.

Tang Shizun, who was a little depressed next to him, deliberately emphasized his tone and raised his voice: "You appreciate him, the commander-in-chief also appreciates him, and the whole army appreciates him, but he is really crazy and will kill the Sichuan army and never recover!"

Pan Wenhua, who had come back to his senses, smiled and pushed back his words. "Why don't you go crazy? Just ask for the plenary meeting to be appointed and re-appointed? At this point, it is useless to blame others? Lianyungang is located at the throat of the Longhai Line. If

If Lianyungang is lost and the Longhai Line is open, and the Japanese army moves westward along the Longhai Line, Xuzhou and Zhengzhou will be besieged on all sides. Tianchu has appointed you to garrison Lianyungang. Do you really not understand?"

Tang Shizun, who had been fighting for half his life, understood the importance of Lianyungang, but he did not understand why Liu Tianchu had to go on an expedition to Shandong, which was already an occupied area, and why he was stationed in Lianyungang. If it was according to his meaning: retreating to Guangde would not violate the wishes of the chairman of the Sichuan Army.

There was no need to go through the pain of an expedition, so he waved his hand and said: "I really don't understand!"

When Tang Shizun was scratching his head, Pan Wenhua had already walked to the door. When he heard Tang Shizun's words, he stopped: "Maybe you really don't understand. If you get closer to Tianchu, you will understand many things that you don't understand. It doesn't matter whether you understand Liu Tianchu's intention or not."

, In short, Tianchu will not harm you. What I want to remind you is - if Lianyungang falls, Tianchu can spare you, but the envoy cannot spare you, so take care of yourself!"

What can he understand if he gets closer to Liu Tianchu? Tang Shizun is still confused. He thought hard, trying to find out the meaning of Pan Wenhua's words. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure it out. So he looked at Pan Wenhua gratefully. Pan Wenhua's reminder made him

I was a little moved. Pan Wenhua was right. Lianyungang fell, and even if Liu Tianchu spared him, the envoy could not spare him.
