Hundreds of millions of cloud explosive bombs were fired at the beginning, and horses were riding on

Third Army Provisional Headquarters.

Army Commander Tang Jiyuan was looking at the map on the wall.

His face was solemn...because the Japanese attacks in recent days have been too crazy.

Since the 8th, the Japanese have launched an attack on Xia County.

The 9th Independent Mixed Brigade, the 24th Division and the Pseudo th Division were like wolves... attacking day and night without stopping.

This makes it very difficult for the 80th Army and his Third Army...

In particular, the 7th Division troops under him were forced to retreat to Wangjiahe...

Coupled with the fierce attack by the Japanese troops, most of the Third Army has now been surrounded by the Japanese.

Now, Commander Tang has gathered the commanders of three divisions here.

Commander Tang finally stopped looking at the map.

"Dear colleagues... You and I have fought together for many years... Our Third Army cannot reach its current size... without your support."

"But... now we are surrounded... the situation is very urgent... if the problem cannot be solved as soon as possible... the consequences will be disastrous!"

"As Chinese people... we should do our best!"

"Resolutely not to take a step back! As a soldier, you should have the dignity of a soldier... You must not surrender to the enemy!"

Commander Tang’s words meant don’t be a traitor!

In recent times, the Japanese have given high-ranking officials and generous salaries to some vacillating members of the Central Army, allowing them to work as spies... Many people could not withstand this huge temptation... and turned into traitors.

This caused many troops to be hit...His Third Army was one of them.

"We, the soldiers... have the bounden duty of soldiers! Protecting our home and country should be what we do!"

"So... we must fight to the death with the Japanese! If we don't succeed, we will be benevolent! Now, order your three troops to break out immediately!"

"Rendezvous with the Eastern Front troops!"

However, this sentence is not finished yet.

I heard a rumbling sound starting from outside.

Boom boom boom....boom boom boom....

This is the sound of cannon!

"What's wrong!"

"Where did the gunfire come from! Are the Japs coming?"

Commander Tang asked anxiously.

He has also been harassed by the Japs' troops these days.

He never had a good night's sleep. Even when he was fighting the Japanese in Xia County, he was on the front line every day.

As soon as I heard the sound of the artillery fire, I knew that it might be the Japs' troops coming up, and there was no one else but the Japs.

"Commander...it's not good...a little Japanese army is attacking..."

"The fighting power is very fierce! Our guard battalion cannot resist it at all..."

"Their target...the target seems to be our headquarters! Commander, we will cover your retreat!"

The commander of the guard battalion hurried in.

This is where the key figures of the Third Army are... If they are caught by the little devil, the consequences will be disastrous!

The entire Central Army has no commander who has been beheaded... They can't let Commander Tang be beheaded!

"retreat?"

"How to retreat?"

"How many Japs are there...and what weapons are they?"

Commander Tang was calm and unhurried. Although his face was solemn, he was very resolute. He didn't seem to take these little devils seriously.

"Commander... I don't know yet, probably... probably a few hundred people..."

The guard battalion commander said hesitantly.

"Hundreds of people?"

"Hundreds of people beat you like this! What are you doing for food! There are no such cowards in our Third Army!"

"Immediately ask for help from the nearby Third Regiment of the 7th Division... They will be here in less than half an hour!"

'Half an hour is enough for us! '

Commander Tang said decisively.

"But...Commander...you can't be caught by them...and you can't take this risk!"

"The entire Third Army depends on you... If you are no longer here... then the Third Army will still be the Third Army!"

It wasn't just the guard battalion commander who was persuading.

The three division commanders around him were all trying to persuade him.

Commander Tang looked at the people around him, thought for a while, and then nodded.

"Okay...immediately cover the retreat of the three division commanders...I can do without! But you can't!"

"What I said...you three must do it well! You must not be traitors! You must not give in a single cent to the little devil!"

"You and I, Chinese soldiers... cannot afford to be such a coward!"

"Live as a hero...and die as a ghost!"

"Our third army! There can be no traitors!"

After saying that, Commander Tang took the lead in leading a group of people to fight fiercely with the Japanese.

"Commander...Commander..."

When the commander of the guard battalion saw that the military commander had rushed forward, he turned around and said to a group of guards: "You guys escort some division commanders away immediately... I will protect the military commander!"

After saying that, he left.

The three division commanders were also uncomfortable...but this was their commander's order!

Military orders... cannot be violated.

What's more, they had already discussed it when they came to Xia County.

Several people must not be in the same place!

Because, if everyone dies...this third army will be in chaos!

Commander Tang took the lead and fired a burst of fire at the attacking Japanese with a Czech-style light machine gun.

Ta da da...ta da da....

In the dark night, the muzzle of the gun was constantly burning with flames... a bright red flame.

It illuminates the entire earth.

There are burning flames everywhere....

"Beat me hard...Since these little devils dare to come here...then they must pay the price!"

Commander Tang gave the order.

The soldiers of the guard battalion began to shoot continuously.

Ta da da...ta da da....

Thousands of bullets were shuttled around... forming dense barrage of death... However, no one knew who would die in this barrage of death.

"Bagayalu...Why did the firepower of this third army suddenly become so fierce!"

"Is it...their commander is here in person!"

Koji Suga asked.

"No... we can't be suppressed by them..."

"Start the bombardment immediately...Grenade launcher!"

"Kill their machine gunners! Kill them!"

The Japs have grenade launchers, quite a few of them, almost every three or four of them have one... Each grenade launcher carries 10 small shells.

The highest range is only about 1000m.

But now, the attacking distance between the two sides...may only be two or three hundred meters.

What's more, these little devils have been trained.

The grenade hits very accurately....

In just a blink of an eye, the grenade was ready.
