Base System of Bashu Heroes

The Sakura Expendables retreated in an orderly manner, showing good military literacy, and the formation was not chaotic at all. Liu Tianchu watched helplessly as the dozens of remaining Japanese soldiers armed with submachine guns withdrew from the battle. Knowing that he could not survive the attack, he did not hesitate at all.

He used various methods to block the Japanese army, and the follow-up troops had completely suppressed the Japanese army. The guard battalion he brought had almost all casualties, and there was no force to pursue him. The guard squads following him had more than half casualties, and even the commanding height machine that was responsible for covering the mission had lost more than half of its troops.

The gunmen also exchanged fire with Japanese troops, killing two people.

The fiercest battle was in the main passage of the command fort. The corpses of Chinese and Japanese soldiers covered the entire trench. The smoke had not dissipated. The blood that had been boiling just now had penetrated deeply into the ground, leaving only the black mark.

.

All the dead Sichuan soldiers fell in one direction, which means that no one retreated during the battle! The brave man wins when they meet on a narrow road, but no one has ever cared about the price the brave man paid for victory...

Niu Dahai, commander of the 41st Army Battalion who was accidentally rescued, injured his leg during the raid. He lay on the ground and yelled: "Don't abandon me, I was injured while fighting for the national war!"

Niu Dahai said this because he had learned from the past. He had seen with his own eyes the fate of the Sichuan Army in the Shanxi battlefield. The 41st Army of the Sichuan Army fought bravely in several battles to reinforce Niangziguan. However, due to poor weapons and equipment, soldiers suffered casualties.

It was so big that every division, brigade, and regiment did not have a medical team attached to it during the war. Wounded officers and soldiers could not get timely medical treatment. Those with minor injuries had to walk to the rear bloody, and those with serious injuries groaned on the battlefield and no one cared about them.

They shouted angrily at the Central Army and the friendly troops of the Jinsui Army: "Brothers, we are here to fight the Japanese. If the Japanese are injured, no one will take care of them. Oh my God! Is this how the national war is fought?"

"No one paid attention to them, and they did not want to fall into the hands of the Japanese army and be humiliated and killed, so they committed suicide first. The situation was very tragic. Some even cursed the Chairman and the relevant authorities angrily before they died for not providing them with additional equipment.

, did not equip health teams, so that they could not fully exert their combat effectiveness on the battlefield to eliminate the Japanese invaders.

Liu Tianchu had also heard about these, but now he didn't listen to what Niu Dahai said at all. He just sat silently leaning against the trench wall among the corpses of the Sichuan Army's sacrificed soldiers. After being in a daze for a long time, he silently looked at the wide-open eyes of the sacrificed soldiers.

Close your eyes!

What good soldiers! Many of them are children from farm families. These are the people who suffer oppression and bullying in daily life, but they stand up at the critical moment when the nation and the country are in danger. The wife sends her husband away, and the mother sends her son away.

, Our country will perish when we are alive, and our country will survive when we die. It is precisely because of their unknown sacrifices that the nation-state can continue.

Liu Tianchu knew that he had to quickly sort out his emotions now. If he wanted to lead the Sichuan Army to continue fighting, he must not be distracted by emotions. Since it is a war, sacrifices and casualties of soldiers and even civilians are inevitable. As a soldier,

It is necessary to be prepared to sacrifice at any time. It is inevitable that soldiers, even officers and even generals will die in battle. If you want to gain a foothold in Shandong and develop the future situation, you must not include a trace of personal emotions. To survive in this troubled world, you must become

Strong enough and cruel enough.

The Sichuan army forcibly crossed the Huaihe River and crippled a Japanese brigade of nearly 10,000 people. They retreated to Bengbu. Yamaguchi Meiji and Nakamura Koichi sat on ammunition boxes and looked silently in the direction of Mengcheng. The brigade commander Yamaguchi Meiji withdrew his gaze.

, looked with disdain at Nakamura Koichi sitting next to him, an arrogant and lucky guy who was promoted to major at the age of twenty-four. While sighing, he discovered that Nakamura Koichi was not as tough as he was when he was drinking. Those things were just pretending.

Yes, it turns out that he is even more decadent and even fragile than himself.

Niu Dahai, who was dragging his injured leg, knew that the person he was scolding was really the commander of the 22nd Army. He refused the medical treatment and climbed up to Liu Tianchu, shaking his leg and begging. "Sir, I was wrong, don't leave me!"

"….

Liu Tianchu, who had just calmed down his emotions, didn't understand what he meant. When he looked carefully, it was the major yelling at him on the battlefield. He was happy: "A grown man, why are you crying? The Sichuan Army will not leave a comrade behind, don't worry!" Liu Tianchu turned him away

He helped him up and worked with the medical soldiers to bandage his wounds and comfort him at the same time.

In fact, Niu Dahai was a subordinate who cried and shared life and death with him. Niu Dahai, who stopped crying, was puzzled and looked at Liu Tianchu in disbelief: "The commander leads the soldiers to charge, what kind of rules is this?"

Liu Tianchu didn't answer his question, but instead angrily accused him. "Damn you, you ruined my whole plan, do you know? I really want to kill you."

The commander was angry, and Niu Dahai, who was naturally prone to crying, was frightened. His body was trembling in the smoke that had not yet cleared. His hands were also trembling. The statue of Hanyang that had never left his hand was a harmless fire stick. Liu Tianchu watched

Looking at him, everyone except him could see that Liu Tianchu was looking at him almost appreciatively, but Niu Dahai couldn't tell. He was shaking more and more, shaking beyond words.

Niu Dahai was most afraid of his superiors, and ten minutes ago, he yelled at a military commander. Now, that military commander has become the highest commander he has ever spoken to in his life.

Niu Dahai was so trembling that he could not speak. Liu Tianchu did not expect to scare him, so he calmed down and asked: "How many Sichuan Army stragglers have lost contact with the troops near Shanxi and Henan?"

Niu Dahai lowered his head and replied in a sad voice: "Many people, like me, are in misery. They can't replenish supplies or ammunition. There is no one to treat the wounded soldiers. Many people go into the mountains to work as slaves."

Liu Tianchu's eyes suddenly became cold, as if frozen, and Niu Dahai under his gaze also seemed frozen. He already knew the miserable situation of the Sichuan Army in Shanxi, but he didn't want to mention it now: "You turned my guard camp into a

You have joined the guard platoon, so you must return a battalion to me, bandage the wounds, and recruit skirmishers for me. If you don’t bring back a battalion, I will catch up with the 41st Army and kill you..."

Niu Dahai hurriedly agreed: "Military seat, don't talk about a battalion, I will give you a regiment."

Liu Tianchu was ecstatic in his heart. The troops suffered heavy losses and could not replenish them. However, he remained calm on the surface: "Bring your people, supplies and medicines. As long as they are Sichuan troops, bring them back."

Jiang Hui'an pulled down the corner of his clothes and reminded him in a low voice: "How about poaching our brothers' troops?"

"If you have something to say, just say it out loud. There is nothing to back others up." Liu Tianchu accused Jiang Hui'an, and then said loudly: "Let me be like the friendly forces? Turn a blind eye? We are both descendants of Bashu, and watch them starve to death? Be tortured by pain.

Die? They are all Chinese soldiers just like us. There is no distinction between high and low in the national interest of resisting foreign humiliation. They only have different responsibilities. They are all passionate about serving the country! They are injured! We have lost contact with the troops.

Should you abandon it? If so, I will dig this corner!"

Jiang Hui'an, who was familiar with the ways of officialdom, was a little nervous. When these words reached the brothers' troops, it would inevitably arouse the disgust of the ministers. He glanced at the soldiers who were standing in line and preparing to set off. There was deathly silence among the tens of thousands of troops. After a moment, thunderous applause broke out on the battlefield.

The 22nd Army crossed Mengcheng, forcibly crossed the Huaihe River, and penetrated Lanfeng, which had a major impact on the Japanese army's combat deployment. The Japanese base camp decided to stop the pursuit in Lanfeng, Guide and other places, and issued an order: "No crossing is allowed without approval.

Fight on the front lines in Kaifeng, Guide, Yongcheng, Mengcheng, Zhengyangguan, and Lu'an to deal with Liu Tianchu's Sichuan Army with all their strength." However, the North China Front Army did not listen to the orders from the base camp at all. After the 14th Division was assigned to the 2nd Army, it was issued directly

An order was given to pursue west of Lanfeng: the first part of the 14th Division was ordered to quickly advance into Kaifeng and Zhengzhou and cut off the Beijing-Hankou Line.

Liu Xiang, who was based in Zhengzhou, also quickly made corresponding arrangements. He urgently mobilized Sun Zhen, Li Jiayu and Deng Xihou to garrison along the Luohe, Mengcheng, Bengbu, Huai'an and Yancheng lines to secure the Japanese 14th, 13th, 10th and 5th divisions.

Surrounded the area south of the Yellow River, guarding the three railway lines of Longhai, Jinpu, and Pinghan, and then ordered Liu Tianchu to arrive at Shangqiu in three days. After Liu Tianchu arrived at Shangqiu, he and the Japanese army fought against the Japanese army in the triangle area of ​​Kaifeng, Lanfeng, and Shangqiu.

Start a decisive battle.

After receiving an urgent order from Liu Xiang, Liu Tianchu crossed the Huaihe River and marched towards Shangqiu. He had to march nearly 500 miles in three days. The hardship of the 22nd Army, which was carrying a lot of injuries and illnesses, can be imagined. Liu Tianchu handed over the troops to Ronghua, and he

Personally exploring the road ahead, Ronghua led the troops in double columns to advance on the mountain path. Although Ronghua, who was well versed in military affairs, rarely used military terms, she took care of the search, main team, flanks, and rear. Ronghua, who had always been paid attention to by the soldiers, was again

It became a mystery, so everyone guessed that she must have fought many battles. She never used military terminology, but took into account all kinds of tactical details. Only people who were picked up on the battlefield could do this. But she was just an adjutant, and the army commander Liu Tianchu was obviously better than her.

A hundred times more powerful - a person who is more powerful than Ronghua should become a "god". The soldiers all felt this way, so their morale became doubly high.
