Fifth Theater Command.
Li Zongren frowned, looked at the map, and then looked at the telegram in his hand, and said, "The defense on the east bank of the Xianghe River is a little weak.
Before, it was the same as the devil's strength, but now the devil's army is much more.
Zhang Zizhong is afraid that it is very difficult. ” "I heard that Lao Zhang has sent a suicide note," Bai Chongxi sighed, "Take a look." ” Li Zongren took it, quickly swept it down, and sighed, "If everyone is like Xun Chen, why worry about not being able to beat the Japanese?"
"Commander, do you want to let the 31st Group Army transfer some troops over," Bai Chongxi asked.
Li Zongren nodded, "The current situation, if you don't adjust, you can't do it, send a report to the United Front Work Department, just say that we apply to transfer part of the 31st Group Army to support the Xianghe Defense Area." ” "Okay."
Bai Chongxi nodded and said, "Also, Zhou Weiguo's department sent a telegram asking for help, and in the Xujiadian position in Suixian County, the original regiment stationed there has almost been beaten, and even the regiment commander is gone."
Now it's all up to Zhou Weiguo to hold on with hundreds of people there. ” "Immediately tell Tang Enbo and let him transfer troops over to support," Li Zongren immediately said, "Suixian is his defense area, and Zhou Weiguo led people there to support to protect his family and defend the country, how could he not say it." ” "Hmm."
Xujiadian "Division, the planes are gone."
A soldier said to Zhou Weiguo, "The devil has started attacking again." ” Zhou Weiguo nodded and said, "Let the brothers be careful." ” "Yes" "Divisional seat, pre-war command telegram."
Zhou Weiguo took it, and then glanced at it, with a complicated expression, Zhang Zizhong, the one he met in Linyi, is now in the same battle, but in different defense areas, this letter similar to farewell made Zhou Weiguo once again think of this general, the highest position in the history of the Anti-Japanese War.
"Victory, send a report to the Air Force, and when supporting the position on the east bank of the Xianghe River, go to one more team."
Zhou Weiguo immediately said that this was already the greatest degree of support he could give.
"Okay."
Fang Shengli nodded, he naturally saw the telegram, and also knew that Zhang Zizhong had an old relationship with Zhou Weiguo during the Battle of Linyi, and while admiring it, he also expressed his understanding of Zhou Weiguo's decision.
Xianghe Zhang Zizhong pressed the trigger, fired bullets, and then quickly lay on the position, several bullets fired on the bunker in front of him.
"Commander, the devil's attack is too fierce, the brothers can't withstand it," a lieutenant general said to Zhang Zizhong, "The casualties are too great."
"If you can't stand it, you have to top it, I have already said it, in this battle, we can only have a chance of life if we fight to the end" Zhang Zizhong looked at the people in front of him and said angrily, "Liu Zhensan, commander of the 180th Division, go back and defend the position for me, if the position is lost, I will ask you" "Commander" Liu Zhensan stomped his feet, although he was also a veteran of the 59th Army and an old subordinate of Zhang Zizhong, but Zhang Zizhong's behavior was very likely to destroy all the 59th Army.
"Go back," Zhang Zizhong said angrily.
"Yes" Liu Zhensan had no choice but to go back and continue to hold his position.
On both sides of the Xiang River, artillery fire flew.
The 22nd Army, holding its position with flesh and blood.
"The commander is gone" "What can't you give Lao Tzu to stay on the battlefield, even if you die, you will stay" Zhang Zizhong said angrily again, "What is standing behind us is the people and the country" "Commander" Liu Zhensan looked at Zhang Zizhong and sighed helplessly, "The ferocity of the devil's firepower is indeed beyond our ability to resist, the brothers have already suffered more than half of the casualties in just one morning."
Zhang Zizhong turned his head at this time, looked at Liu Zhensan, and said, "You haven't been following me for a day or two, what kind of person I am, you should know that the things that have been decided will not change." ” "But Commander, this is the life of tens of thousands of brothers in our army," Liu Zhensan shouted.
"But behind us, it is the lives of tens of thousands of people across the country," Zhang Zizhong immediately retorted.
Liu Zhensan was choked for a moment, and then sighed, "Commander, since that's the case, please hurry up and ask for reinforcements."
"Air forces from the Separate Division have already come to reinforce twice."
Zhang Zizhong immediately said, "Send a report to Chief Li, just say that the Japanese army is large, and the strength is more than ours, and our army will hold on to the last man, and I hope that the commander will quickly transfer troops for reinforcements."
"Yes" Liu Zhensan took the order and left, what he didn't know was that Zhang Zizhong had already sent a report asking for support.
Zhang Zizhong, on the other hand, continued to return to his position and began to defend.
The devil's pontoon bridge has crossed most of the Xiang River, and the Xiang River is not wide in the first place.
"Come on, what about the artillery" Zhang Zizhong said loudly, "I blew up the devil's pontoon bridge for Lao Tzu" "Yes," a soldier took the order.
At this time, the equipment supported by Zhou Weiguo had just been transported to the Xianghe River.
About ten minutes later, the sound of artillery firing also sounded behind the positions of the national army.
"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" Some of the shells fell in the river, some landed on the devil's pontoon bridge, and even injured the devil's sappers who were building the pontoon bridge.
"Okay" Zhang Zizhong's eyes lit up, and then said, "What kind of cannon is this?"
"Commander Zhang, this is a howitzer of 120, which General Zhou supported my departments in the Fifth Theater yesterday."
At this time, a major general of the national army also came to the position and said to Zhang Zizhong, "Commander Zhang, this is a receipt, please take it." ” "Haha, it's the equipment supported by Brother Weiguo, I said, when did we have such a large-caliber cannon."
Zhang Zizhong laughed and took the receipt, "Thank you." ” "It's just about defending the country and protecting the family, where the duty lies."
"Thank you, your cannonball came at a good time."
After a while, the hum of an airplane sounded in the air again.
Zhang Zizhong raised his head, this is the third time today.
He was very grateful to Zhou Weiguo's air force, otherwise, his 33rd Army would not only have suffered these losses in the morning.
"Brother Fei, the division said that we must add an extra team to support here."
"I know, didn't I add it" Goofy nodded, "However, the battle situation down there is really not optimistic, there are too many devils." ” "Brother Fei, let's go down and give the devil some good looks" "Okay."

Then, Goofy controlled the fighter plane and dived downward.
"Nanichina's fighter plane, Yalu, hidden," a Japanese lieutenant general put down his binoculars and then said loudly, "Order, the troops with anti-aircraft artillery will immediately defend their aircraft." ” "Hi" "Your Excellency, Division Commander, the fighters of the Zhina people have come three times in one morning."
Next to it, a Japanese major general said.
"I know."
The Japanese lieutenant general nodded, "According to the current offensive situation, by the afternoon, we will be able to hit the east bank, and we will be able to take the position of the Chinese people." ” "Hi" "However, the fighters of the China people are really troublesome, so ask the air force again for help, and tell the command that the air force of the China people has caused a lot of casualties to our warriors."
"Hi":
