Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

The commander-in-chief's words made everyone present laugh.

Lin Tian also admires the romantic and optimistic spirit of his ancestors.

We are finding joy in the midst of adversity.

Otherwise, our team wouldn't have grown so strong.

Afterwards, everyone divided into several groups and boarded the fighter planes to check.

The pilots explained their flying experiences and insights, as well as the data and performance of the JH-7A to the leaders.

The leaders who heard it exclaimed in surprise.

……

Jing County is 14 kilometers away from Changsha City and is garrisoned by the th Army of the Ninth War Zone.

This is also the northernmost part of Xue Boling’s last line of defense.

The Japanese Fifth Division was responsible for attacking Jing County.

At this moment, Kang Guohui, commander of the 14th Army, went to the front line in person, led the troops and repelled another round of attack by the Japanese.

"General! General, it's bad. The Japanese have launched another charge in the north of the city!" At this time, a communicator who had one arm cut off by shrapnel reported.

"What? The Japs are really crazy. My unit is surrounded by enemies on three sides. We are being attacked by the Japs in turns on all three sides. Why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet?" Kang Guohui felt exhausted when he heard the news.

Since the Japanese invaders arrived in Jing County, they have sent troops to sweep the surrounding villages and massacre Chinese people.

On the one hand, they launched a strong attack on Jing County day and night.

Kang Guohui could no longer remember how many times he had charged back to repel the Japanese, nor could he remember how many times the Japanese had charged.

He only remembered that he hadn't slept at all during these days.

Just now, the front line of defense was almost collapsed by the simultaneous attack of Japanese tanks, planes and artillery.

He personally led the guard company and grabbed a submachine gun and rushed to the front line, only then was the situation stabilized.

Then, he led a group of wounded troops and suffered heavy casualties before he repelled the Japanese attack that could have cost him his life.

Kang Guohui felt a little scared when he thought of the situation just now.

Jing County is the northern gate of Changsha City. If Jing County is lost, the third line of defense will be on the verge of collapse.

By then, even if he died for his country, it would be difficult to wash away his sins.

"Hold on! Let them hold on!"

"Suicide Squad! Carry explosive packs and charge at the enemy's formation!"

"Mortar support!"

Kang Guohui didn't dare to think any further. Only constant fighting could make him forget these troubles temporarily.

Only by holding our position can we wait for Commander Xue's reinforcements to arrive.

"General, please take a rest. You haven't slept for three days and three nights!" Kang Guohui's adjutant said reluctantly while supporting Kang Guohui.

"As soon as I closed my eyes, all I could see were those people who died tragically, pointing at me and asking, 'What were we doing when the Japanese were slaughtering them? Why did we let the Japanese burn, kill, and plunder all the way to their hometown?'"

"I dare not sleep. If we cannot defend Jing County, you and I will be sinners of China. When we go down there, we will not be able to face the people of Jiangdong."

Kang Guohui rubbed his face hard to keep himself awake.

Then he picked up his gun and rushed to the position in the north of the city.

Jing County is under great pressure.

The Japanese Fifth Division is a Type A division, the infamous Sakagami Division, which has a large amount of mechanized equipment.

He participated in the Battle of Taiyuan, the Battle of Xuzhou, the Battle of Taierzhuang, and later the Battle of Kunlun Pass, with extremely strong combat effectiveness.

He also participated in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895.

It can be said that there is a blood feud between the Fifth Division and China.

The 14th Army of the Central Army had only people, and was at a disadvantage in terms of weapons and equipment as well as manpower.

Okamura Yasuji continued to increase his troops. The commander of the 5th Division, Seishirō Sakagami, not only had the strength of a division under his command, but also a division of the Locust Army and a heavy artillery brigade.

The 14th Army consists only of its own troops and the police in its jurisdiction.

The 14th Army had been holding out here for five days and suffered heavy casualties.

Five regiments have been wiped out, not even any seeds left.

On Xue Boling's side, the wall was leaking everywhere and reinforcements were needed everywhere.

All three of his reserve armies had been deployed.

The reinforcements sent by the commander also consumed a lot of resources and could not stop the problem at all.

The Japanese planes even flew directly behind the defense line and bombed the Kuomintang reinforcements coming to Changsha along the way.

This resulted in varying degrees of casualties among the reinforcements and greatly slowed down their marching speed.

This made the situation in the Ninth War Zone even worse.

The Japanese even sent out bombers to attack Chongqing. This time they dropped hundreds of poison gas bombs, causing large numbers of civilian casualties.

For a time, people in Chongqing were in panic.

Many people began to flee.

……

"General, the Japanese have retreated, and we have held on again!" After a fierce hand-to-hand combat, the Japanese attack was repelled once again. Chief of Staff Shen Meng supported Kang Guohui, who was about to collapse, and shouted.

At this time, Kang Guohui's eyes were bloodshot, his body was covered in blood, and his military uniform had several large holes torn.

At this moment, he felt dizzy and could hardly hold on. He could not hear clearly what Chief of Staff Shen Meng said.

"Military doctor! Call the military doctor!"

"Help the commander go back and rest!"

Shen Meng cried out in grief.

Kang Guohui endured the discomfort and staggered to a puddle with the help of Shen Meng.

Kang Guohui bent down, lay down beside the puddle, scooped up some water, and washed his face. Only then did he feel a little more sober.

"Brother Shen Meng, I can't go down. When I'm here, the brothers will have a backbone and can be more motivated to fight." Kang Guohui said, feeling dizzy.

Even if he died here today, as long as he could stop the Japanese attack, he would die without regrets.

The Central Army soldiers, who had just repelled another round of attacks by the Japanese invaders, finally had a chance to catch their breath and began to rest, either sitting or leaning back.

They looked at their commander's attitude and admired him in their hearts.

Just now, it was the military commander who personally led the suicide squad and rushed forward, and repelled the Japanese in time.

Otherwise, they would have been at the end of their strength and would surely not be able to hold on.

"Chief of Staff, the military doctor is here!" someone shouted at this time.

"General, please go down and have a rest. I'm here. I guarantee you with my life that the position will be where the people are!" Shen Meng continued to dissuade him.

Kang Guohui is the head of an army. If anything happens to him, the 14th Army will be leaderless and have no one to command it.

"No..." Kang Guohui could no longer open his eyes. He lay in Shen Meng's arms, struggling to get up.

"Commander, please take a rest!"

"Commander, can you take a rest?"

On the northern battlefield of the city, the surviving Central Army soldiers were all in tears and asked Kang Guohui to rest.

"No... the Japs won't give us a break. They will come up soon. The next attack will definitely be more fierce than the previous one. I can't leave."

"You...you are all my brothers, I can't abandon you...I..." Kang Guohui has made up his mind and will stay on the front line no matter what.

"General, I'm sorry!" Seeing this, Shen Meng had to resort to hard tactics.
