"withdraw."

After seeing the large army withdraw, Xie Yulin spoke without hesitation.

The soldiers next to him conveyed the news one by one, the battlefield was in chaos and filled with smoke.

There were still sporadic gunshots on the battlefield. Xie Yulin, who was leading the team away, paused slightly.

"Why is there still someone on the battlefield?" Xie Yulin's face suddenly changed and he roared.

"Some soldiers were injured and didn't want to leave. They wanted to hold out until nightfall to make the main force safer..."

A soldier next to Xie Yulin lowered his head with a look of sorrow.

As soon as these words came out, Xie Yulin fell silent. He looked at the hilltop and recalled the sporadic gunshots.

One by one, the Japanese soldiers were rushing up the hill, but were stopped by the guns. However, the gunshots on the hill became less and less.

Xie Yulin clenched his fists tightly, and saw that the sporadic gunshots on the hilltop had disappeared.

As the sky was about to set, the sunset was still on the top of the mountain. The top of the mountain had already turned into a dark scorched earth. Even the golden sunlight, when spread on the land, could not bring the slightest luster.

The crazy charge of the Japanese soldiers and the second Japanese soldiers was accompanied by a slowly standing figure on the top of the hill. In the setting sun, the golden light sprinkled on his body, and his suit and tie were so eye-catching.

"Why did you leave him on the battlefield?" Xie Yulin said with a gritted teeth while holding the telescope, and turned to question the soldier next to him.

"I want to take him away. He was shot in the leg and he doesn't want to leave." The soldier met Xie Yulin's gaze and lowered his head silently.

"Just kidnap him and take him away." Xie Yulin spoke word by word.

After hearing this, the soldier just lowered his head silently, without any argument, and remained silent.

Seeing this, Xie Yulin glanced at the figure standing on the top of the mountain. Although the figure was a little shaky, it was so eye-catching and dazzling standing in the setting sun with the golden sunlight shining down.

"Let's go, follow the commander!" Xie Yulin roared and quickly caught up with the main force.

The main force was advancing, but just as Xie Yulin caught up with the rear, he saw Li Yunlong.

Next to Li Yunlong, there was a woman standing, who was looking quietly in one direction. Looking at this woman, Xie Yulin fell silent.

"I'm sorry, I didn't protect your brother." Xie Yulin said apologetically.

"This is his choice." Lin Qing's eyes were filled with tears as she stared at the figure on the top of the mountain under the setting sun, her voice trembling a little.

Standing on the top of the mountain, isn’t it a silent farewell?

Stand, whether alive or dead.

"Everyone with the surname Lin is great." Although Li Yunlong is usually carefree, at this moment, he slowly put down the telescope and sighed softly.

Lin Qingmei was a little unsteady on her feet, but she still turned to look at Li Yunlong: "We can't stay here for long, let's leave quickly."

After he finished speaking, he took a deep look at the hill that had long been bare and turned into scorched earth. The trees were still burning. A figure slowly fell down in the setting sun. When he turned around, tears fell to the ground.

As the soldiers walked away one by one, many people's memories were left behind on an unknown hill.

----------

------

Chaocheng.

The streets were dusty and many teams were passing by, but most of them were wearing yellow military uniforms.

While walking, people would occasionally come out from the lazy team.

The doors of the houses on the entire street were already closed, and the pedestrians were already occupied by people in military uniforms.

At this time, a loud noise was heard in a street.

"Master, this is the winter rations my father earned by risking his life to build fortifications for the Imperial Army. If you take it away, how will we survive?"

At the entrance of the street, three or four Japanese soldiers in yellow clothes were holding a bag of food in their hands. An old woman with half-white hair was lying on the ground, holding the foot of a Japanese soldier tightly with her hand, not daring to let go.

Behind her was a seven-year-old boy and a thirteen-year-old girl crying helplessly at the door.

In the streets and alleys, all the doors are closed, and through the cracks in the doors and windows, pairs of eyes are watching.

What blocked their view was nothing but earth and wood, but what couldn't be hidden was the fear in their hearts and the numb look in their eyes that was indifferent to it.

"Damn it, I haven't even received my military pay yet, and it's your turn to have a full meal?" He kicked him hard.

But when he looked at the young girl behind the woman, he and his companion exchanged glances for a moment.

The woman also noticed something was wrong. She pushed the two children into the door and stood there silently.

The small gate in the street was very small, but her thin figure with her limbs stretched out seemed unable to block the small gate.

"Beat her until she lets go."

The leading Er Gouzi spoke immediately and his voice was heard.

Several Japanese soldiers put their guns behind their backs and started punching and kicking the women who were blocking the door.

The sun was shining brightly, and the cries echoed throughout the alleys.

But outside the city, the wind blew and the leaves swayed, causing them to sway in waves.

In the absence of Japanese aircraft reconnaissance, the soldiers lay in the grass and leaned against the trees.

Lin Tianchen carefully observed the situation of Chaocheng on the visual map and quickly handed a map divided into areas to Zhuzi.

"Don't save the ammunition, we are fighting a quick battle and a quick victory."

"Yes."

Zhuzi nodded in response.

"Li Weiguo, you leave the third battalion to follow me. When the artillery fires, the first and second battalions will rush forward and resolve this battle as quickly as possible." Lin Tianchen turned his head to look at Li Weiguo.

There were only two Japanese battalions in Chaocheng, but there were nearly 10,000 Japanese garrisons stationed there.

In this battle, Lin Tianchen's consideration was very simple. He would directly cover the enemy with artillery fire, defeat these traitors first, and then let the Second Regiment charge.

Only by winning the war quickly can we have enough time to replenish our forces inside the city.

After all, reconnaissance planes fly across the sky from time to time. It is obvious that the Kwantung Army has transferred some planes from somewhere, but because of the urgency of time, the supporting facilities of the bombers need to be more complete, so there are no bombers for the time being.

But this has already made Lin Tianchen feel a strong sense of crisis. The Fourth Regiment and the First Regiment were at Bata Mountain, pulling the group of Japanese soldiers from inside and outside. As long as he could capture Chaocheng, he would have time to return to rescue them.

And then we have to eliminate the Japanese devils. It can be said that the time to capture Chaocheng is related to the casualties of the first, fourth and third regiments.

"Yes." Li Weiguo received the order and quickly began to make arrangements.

When Li Weiguo crouched down and came to the ambush position, his eyes also turned to Zhao Jinxue.

"Zhao Jinxue, you take the third battalion and follow the brigade commander. Remember, no matter what the order is, you must leave a company with the brigade commander to ensure safety." Li Weiguo's tone was full of seriousness.

"Yes." Zhao Jinxue nodded vigorously.

Li Weiguo left in a hurry to coordinate the combat missions of the first and second battalions. Shortly after Li Weiguo left, Lin Tianchen appeared at the location of the third battalion.

Looking at the only female battalion commander among the four regiments, she was dressed in a neat military uniform, had a very pretty face, but her eyes were very determined.

Lin Tianchen naturally recognized the guerrilla leader who had questioned him before, but now Zhao Jinxue's eyes had completely proved that he was on the road to becoming a qualified commander.

"After the battle begins, all members of the Third Battalion will head to Area 09 in the city. After clearing out the remaining soldiers, immediately remove all the ammunition inside. Only the ammunition! Blow up everything else."

Lin Tianchen spoke quickly without any hesitation.

"I will ensure that the task is completed." Zhao Jinxue nodded vigorously.

Afterwards, she watched Lin Tianchen looking down at his watch from time to time, which made her expression even more solemn. It was obvious that the attack on Chaocheng had entered the countdown.

In an instant, bursts of dull artillery fire, accompanied by the setting sun, crossed the sky.

boom!

Every artillery shell landed accurately on the firing points on the city gate, as well as some watchtowers and positions.

Han Zhangqiu had been in the Anti-Japanese United Army before, and he said something very true: perhaps because he was used to hard times, when he suddenly saw such artillery fire, his eyes were filled with amazement.

The Japanese soldier who was just chatting on the city gate tower disappeared in an instant. At this moment, he truly saw what a saturation artillery attack was.

The city of Chao, which had been calm just a moment ago, was now filled with explosions.

The shells were still falling, and some of the Japanese soldiers outside the city had already begun to flee in all directions. The trend of defeat had already formed the moment the shells fell.

Even along with the sound of cannons, a deep shout resounded throughout the entire battlefield, spreading in all directions.

"Xiao Hai, the sharpshooter company will immediately ascend the city wall and occupy the high ground!"

"Charge this group of defeated troops!"

"kill!!!"

As the voice fell, Han Zhangqiu looked at Li Weiguo, who was leading the way, holding a light machine gun and standing up from the position.

The artillery shells and explosions continued overhead. In an instant, Li Weiguo led two battalions of soldiers and rushed towards Chaocheng.

The cry of killing suddenly arose. Before they could fire a single shot from their guns, the sharpshooters mentioned by Li Weiguo were running on the flat ground in front of the city gate.

The sound of artillery became the solo on this battlefield.

It was not until the men of the first and second battalions were halfway through their charge that the first shots were heard, and the blast of gunfire added a touch of sound to the solo cannonade.

The charge was like a tide, and the fanatical look made Han Zhangqiu a little dazed.

"Is this the strength of the Third Regiment?" Han Zhangqiu had long heard that each regiment of the Tiger Guard Brigade had its own strengths and weaknesses, but when he actually saw this scene, his blood was already boiling with excitement from the sounds of killing.

Those sharpshooters charged directly, shooting every Japanese soldier who dared to show his head. Before they reached the city gate, they had already started to arrange for sharpshooters to climb the gate tower.

This was the first time in all these years that he had seen a team attack a city in this way.

"This is the Tiger Guard, and now I am one of them." Han Zhangqiu resisted the urge to charge. After all, the mission of their third battalion was different this time.

This made him turn around and look at Lin Tianchen in the third battalion. At this time, his face was very calm. He was holding the connected telephone line and running to the artillery to adjust the artillery fire.

With each adjustment, the artillery fire always fell on the most precise location at an extremely fast speed. The Japanese could not organize a counterattack at all and were defeated by the first and second battalions.

"Third Battalion, enter the city and head straight to area 09." Lin Tianchen said quickly.

When the voice fell and Han Zhangqiu reacted, the figure had already rushed towards Chaocheng.

..........

.....

In the city, in the streets and alleys, two figures looked at the dead Japanese soldiers lying on the ground, their eyes still filled with murderous intent.

"Li Shihui, evacuate Chaocheng as soon as possible, we are exposed."

A tall and strong figure, holding a box gun in his hand with the muzzle pointing downwards, lifted the scarred woman up with one hand, put the bag of food into the room, and spoke in a serious tone.

"Something's wrong. The artillery fire has never stopped. There are troops attacking the city!" After hearing this, the thin Li Shihui paused and looked up at the sky.

At this moment, the shells were still passing over their heads and falling around them, but they were hitting the gathering points of the Japanese and the traitors.

There wasn't even any stopping.

"Attacking the city?" Zeng Shiliang was stunned. At this moment, he also found something wrong, because not only did the artillery fire never stop, but even at this time, gunshots were heard.

But these are the three northeastern provinces, which have been controlled by the Japanese for more than ten years.

Siege?

This word was very unfamiliar to the two of them.

The two men looked at each other, and immediately went into a door in the alley and climbed onto the roof. Although shells were flying all over the sky, judging from the signs of explosion, these shells did not hit the residential area at all, but all fell accurately where the Japanese were.

The moment the two looked towards the city gate, their pupils dilated slightly. The scene they had imagined countless times was playing out at this moment. They clearly saw figures rushing in from outside the city at the city gate.

When chasing the Japanese, not only were their steps very fast, it even felt like they were running after the Japanese without stopping their guns.

They always saw the Japs chasing them, but now, the situation is turned upside down.

"Hu Ben Brigade..." Zeng Shiliang murmured. At this moment, he thought of countless troops in the three northeastern provinces, but the only one he could think of was the Hu Ben Brigade that annihilated 30,000 Kwantung troops in Guiyang Mountain and went on the Northern Expedition.

"This fire has finally spread from Jinchayi to the three northeastern provinces."

Li Shihui's eyes were already bloodshot. Apart from the Tiger Brigade, he really couldn't think of any other team that could attack the city and have such dense artillery fire.

He had been confused about the future of the three northeastern provinces, but now it was like a ray of light piercing through the clouds.
