In order to allow the fighters of the Independent Brigade to evacuate to their own positions before the artillery bombardment of the devil ships, Zhou Wu sternly ordered everyone to leave immediately.
The soldiers originally wanted to take a breath on the devil's position before leaving, but they were urged by Zhou Wu, and everyone gritted their teeth again and ran back to their positions desperately.
Now that the two battle groups are in one place, one can imagine what a spectacular sight it would be for a team of nearly five thousand men to run wild across the endless plains.
I saw that all the officers and soldiers of the Independent Brigade were like a churning and dancing blue-gray dragon, winding and rugged, with no end in sight.
The dust covered the sky like a raging hurricane.
It was early winter, and the cold mixed with the slightest cold wind blew on the faces of the running national soldiers, but they didn't seem to feel the cold, they were all covered in sweat, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans oozed from their foreheads.
Gao Xiangfa and Wang Ding ran harder, and the hot air that rose layer by layer came out of the top of their heads.
It's no wonder they're like this, everyone is really tired this time.
In just two hours, the independent brigade did several major things.
On the way back and forth for more than ten miles, they were all marching at the fastest speed, and in the middle of a hand-to-hand fight with the devil in the trench.
After such a tossing back and forth, the physical exertion of the fighters can be imagined.
In order to prevent the remains of the sacrificed brothers from being left on the devil's position, hundreds of national soldiers ran all the way with those bodies on their backs.
At this time, they had only one thought in their hearts, that is, to try to get out of their positions before the devil's guns opened fire, and bring these good men who sacrificed their lives for the country back to their own positions.
Zhou Wu and Ding Ning gradually felt a little physically exhausted, and they both felt as if they were pressing a stone on their chests, and they were panicked and very uncomfortable.
The speed of the two of them slowed down unconsciously, and this matter was soon discovered by Gao Xiangfa and Wang Ding, they didn't say a word, and hurriedly greeted a few brothers, and put Zhou Wu and Ding Ning up and ran respectively.
Zhou Wu suddenly felt as if his body was vacated, and when he looked at his feet, it turned out that he was lifted by Gao Xiangfa and another brother.
Zhou Wu was actually being picked up by others and ran forward now, without any strength at all.
In this way, the officers and men of the Independent Brigade ran and pulled and frantically attacked for five or six miles, and finally ran back to their positions before the devil's naval guns opened fire.
The fat man saw that everyone was running wildly, and he thought to himself, this one by one ran faster than the rabbit, is it the little devil on the other side who has caught up He hurriedly took a look at the binoculars, and it turned out that the people who came over were all national soldiers wearing blue-gray military uniforms, and there was not a single devil behind him.
In this way, the fat man is relieved, needless to say, the plan of the brigade will definitely succeed.
However, from the devil's position here, there are at least five or six miles, and the brothers are running wildly all the way, and it is estimated that they are not lightly tired.
Zhou Wu and Ding Ning were supported by several people, and their feet were taken to the position.
When the fat man saw it, he thought something had happened to the two of them, so he hurriedly ran over and asked, "Lao Gao, what's wrong with the brigade seat and the chief of staff?"
The fat man was huge, and the speed of running over was extremely fast, Gao Xiangfa opened his mouth wide, and he was so surprised that he couldn't close it.
He really couldn't understand how the fat man, who was dozens of meters away just now, could suddenly come to him.
Gao Xiangfa was a little distracted, but Wang Ding, who was still standing next to him, reacted quickly, he explained: "Commander Liu, the brigade seat and the chief of staff are fine, just now in order to come back quickly, the brothers directly helped them up, you see, isn't the brigade seat panting over there?"
At this time, Zhou Wu just gasped for the stuffy breath in his chest, and when he saw the fat man running over in a hurry, he immediately said: "Lao Liu, we're fine, you told the broken brother to hurry up and prepare, and enter the position in an hour."
The others checked their weapons and ammunition, and retreated to Changshu for a while. ” When the fat man heard that Zhou Wu and Ding Ning were fine, he immediately became happy, he took Zhou Wu's hand and said, "Luzao, you don't know, I thought you had an accident just now, but when I think about it, how can we Luzao be so easily killed by the devil." ” Zhou Wu said a little self-deprecatingly: "Lao Liu, I am a human being, not a god, I was bored halfway just now, but I didn't expect that I was not very old, but my physical strength was not good, and I couldn't keep up with my brothers." ” "Brigade commander, look at what you said, in the entire national army, who is like you who charges with his brothers and runs away together, if I reach your age, it may be even worse."
The fat man is very good at being a man, and he picks up the good things and says them, but never mentions the bad aspects.
Gao Xiangfa had just been transferred from the 11th Division, and although his time in the Independent Brigade was only three days, at this time, Gao Xiangfa felt that he was inseparable from Zhou Wu and the Independent Brigade.
There are many reasons, and he will not be able to say clearly for a while, but he agrees with the fat man's last sentence.
If the generals of the national army on the Songhu battlefield were like Zhou Wu, taking the lead and charging ahead, it would be a fool's dream for the little devils to capture Shanghai and threaten Nanjing.
However, at a time like this, there are too few officers like Zhou Wu, too few.
Gao Xiangfa had a sense of belonging from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to leave Zhou Wu, or he didn't want to leave the Independent Brigade, only such a unit was worthy of his service and follow.
At this moment, Cheng Guoping of the tank detachment came in a hurry, and Zhou Wu asked in wonder: "Old Cheng, didn't you retreat with Zhang Ercheng, why did you come here again?"
Cheng Guoping said: "Brigade seat, I just discussed with the brothers of the tank detachment, anyway, the fuel of these eight tank combat vehicles can't last in Changshu, if it runs out of fuel halfway, it is better to rest on the position to fight devils." ” "We plan to get the oil out of the two tanks and add it to the two tanks, and these two tanks and the two tanks without fuel will stay in the position and block the devils with the troops behind Commander Liu.
Several other tanks and combat vehicles were withdrawn to Changshu with the artillery. ” "The brothers insisted until after 11 o'clock in the evening, remember to blow up the two tanks that ran out of fuel and retreat to Changshu under the cover of the tank, which can not only strengthen the strength of Commander Liu, but also speed up their evacuation, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone."
After listening to Lao Cheng's proposal, Zhou Wu felt that he had thought very thoughtfully, if there were a few tanks to help the fat man, it would definitely be of great help to them to hold their positions, and the confidence of the soldiers would also improve a lot.
The problem is that if the tank tanks stay, the tank crews will also stay, and the danger can be imagined, and who among those tank crews will be willing to take risks Cheng Guoping seemed to guess Zhou Wu's worries, and immediately said: "Brigade seat, we have already discussed, I will lead the team, and leave the eight brothers to hold the position together with Commander Liu." ” Hearing this, Zhou Wu was really moved, he grabbed Cheng Guoping's hand tightly, and said: "Old Cheng, I thank you and your brothers for all the personnel of the Independent Brigade, you are the only ones who can fight side by side with us at this time, thank you." ” Zhou Wu kept thanking Cheng Guoping, he knew that these tank soldiers were treated as treasures in the national army, but he didn't expect that their courage to resist Japan and kill the enemy was not inferior to the soldiers who worked the front line, this kind of spirit and courage made Zhou Wu admire.
Cheng Guoping said: "Brigade seat, what are you talking about, the tank detachment is righteous to fight against devils, and there is nothing to thank or thank."
Now we are part of the Independent Brigade, and the common people support us to resist the enemy and resist humiliation. ” "Please rest assured that our tank detachment will sincerely cooperate with Regiment Commander Liu to jointly fight devils and complete the task of breaking off."
Zhou Wu turned his head to the fat man and said, "Lao Liu, Lao Cheng, they didn't treat us as outsiders at the critical moment, they came to help, you have to thank them." ” The fat man didn't expect the tank detachment to take the initiative to come and help them hold their positions, and when he saw Cheng Guoping, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
After listening to Zhou Wu's words again, the fat man said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, as soon as Lao Cheng's tank comes, our confidence in holding the position is higher."
Brigade, you can retreat to Changshu with peace of mind, there are Lao Cheng and our three hundred brothers at night, and the devil does not want to take a step from the position. ” "If we can't hold our position at night, let those little devils raised by bitches catch you, Luzao, you will screw off my old Liu's head and kick it as a ball."
As soon as the fat man was excited, he began to make military orders again.

"I don't want your head, as long as you cooperate well with Lao Cheng and hold your ground until 11 o'clock at night.
Now I announce that Liu Xiaolei will be in charge of the troops after the break, and Cheng Guoping will be the deputy, and they will hold their positions until 11 o'clock in the evening, and then they can evacuate, leaving the radio department to keep in touch with the brigade headquarters.
Zhou Wu gave the order.
Subsequently, Zhou Wu asked Gao Xiang to send them to the broken brothers, leaving enough ammunition, drinking water and dry food to meet all their needs.
I really didn't feel at ease, Zhou Wu told the fat man and Lao Cheng to try to think of more ways in the battle, don't fight with the devil, and strive to bring the most brothers back to Changshu, where he will wait for everyone's return.
While he was talking, a series of earth-shattering explosions suddenly sounded on the devil's position, and the soldiers of the national army who had just gasped for breath on the position and were about to evacuate were nervous, and they took up their weapons and entered the position.
Zhou Wu looked through the binoculars and saw that it was the Japanese naval guns, which were carrying out large-scale artillery bombardment on the positions they had captured.
The devil thought that the national army was still on the position at this time, so he mobilized hundreds of warships of all sizes anchored at the mouth of the Yangtze River to shell the position together, and the explosion caused the fire to rise to the sky, smoke rose everywhere, and sand and rocks flew away, and even Zhou Wu, who was five or six miles away, felt that the ground under his feet was trembling slightly.
The "boom" explosions rang out incessantly, one after another, incessantly.
Zhou Wu and the soldiers of the Independent Brigade secretly rejoiced, it was too hanging, and if they ran a few minutes late, the consequences would be unimaginable. t1706231537:
