Return to the vicinity of Luodian.

Keep fighting.

The battle was brutal. Fierce. But lackluster.

The Japanese invaders wanted to open the highway from Luodian to Jiading, but the national army stubbornly blocked it. Zhang Yong repeatedly went into battle in person.

The casualties were of course very heavy.

The 107th Division has been crippled, with less than 3,000 men left.

The worst offender was Qiu Qingquan's 152nd Division. Less than 2,000 men were beaten and left. Zhang Yong ordered them to withdraw from the battle.

There is no fresh force.

Xue Yue led the 19th Army Group and finally arrived on the battlefield. However, they invested in the central part.

Liao Lei also came, but joined the south.

one day……

Three days...

Five days…

Time passes day by day.

Zhang Yong didn't want to look at the daily casualty figures because he was numb.

On the Japanese side, two divisions also withdrew. They probably retreated to the rear to replenish their troops. They were almost completely destroyed.

The attrition tactic was indeed successful.

The Japanese invaders indeed consumed a large amount of manpower, material and financial resources. However, they continued to replenish them.

With the accumulated strength of the Japanese invaders, it was only a matter of time before they captured the Songhu battlefield.

Late September…

The fierce battle is still going on.

Wang Yaowu's 51st Division also withdrew, with less than 1,500 remaining troops.

Numbers are cold. But behind every number, there is a living person. Now, they have all disappeared.

The 108th Division was almost wiped out. Zhang Yong ordered to retreat.

Liu Jianxu came with the 10th Army to reinforce the Luodian battlefield. As a result, the battle was still intense.

The Japanese invaders also brought in more and more fresh troops.

Fierce battle...

Fierce battle...

Cao Mengqi also came with the Rangers.

As a result, after only one day, he was beaten to the point of being unable to take care of himself. More than half of them were injured or killed.

"how so……"

"how so……"

Lao Cao was confused on the spot.

He could not accept such a cruel reality.

After only one day on the job, his own Rangers were maimed?

However, the cruel reality is like this.

After all, the Einsatzgruppe is not a regular army. Its combat effectiveness is definitely not as good as that of a regular army.

Lao Cao, who did not believe in evil, once again led the Rangers to attack. Unfortunately, he died in battle. The Rangers were completely destroyed.

"Old Cao..."

"Old Cao..."

Zhang Yong held Cao Mengqi's body.

He murmured to himself, but did not shed any tears. He was not a hypocritical person.

He knew that sooner or later, one of his close relatives and friends would die on the battlefield. But he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

He also thought that Lao Cao would shine on the battlefield.

If you survive a catastrophe, you will be blessed later.

Lao Cao had already suffered a disaster. He thought God would definitely take care of him.

Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi.

Don’t bully young people into poverty!

This is how it is described in novels. However, Lao Cao died.

There were a total of nineteen warheads on his body.

Seven 6.5mm bullets, fired from a crooked light machine gun.

Twelve 7.7mm bullets were fired from the chicken-neck heavy machine gun.

No last words were left.

He died silently like many other officers and soldiers.

Movies and TV shows are all lies. People who are hit by bullets have no chance to speak. The moment they are shot, everything is over.

buried.

Hold your head high.

No tears allowed.

Then keep fighting.

The two infantry brigades of Bangzi were divided and surrounded by Zhang Yong.

Damn it, I can't defeat the Japanese invaders, so I can't defeat you?

He took the lead personally and annihilated them all.

Leave no one behind.

Get rid of them all.

The 66th Division of the Sichuan Army under the command of Wang Kuiyuan entered the battlefield for the third time.

Why is it said the third time?

Because it was lighted, I moved to the back to replenish it. I came up, and it was lighted again. I moved back to replenish it. Now I come up again...

Those who were supplemented were all soldiers from the Sichuan Army. They came from central Sichuan.

At the same time, Zhang Yong finally received his first batch of supplementary troops. They set off from Tongling, Guyuan and other places.

Bad news also came soon. The town of Dachang was lost and the Japanese invaders occupied the core hinterland.

Now, the only comfort is that Luodian is still in the hands of the national army. The Japanese invaders cannot break through from here.

With Zhang Yong's current ability, he can only defend Luodian. Everything else is beyond his capabilities.

The 100th Army (230th Division) came, but did not come.

Because Dachang Town was lost and the central area was opened, Chiang Kai-shek directly ordered the 100th Army to strengthen the central defense line.

So, I stopped coming to Luodian. Then Jinshanwei also gave up.

All situations are bad.

We are not short of weapons and ammunition, we are short of people. We are short of soldiers.

Replenishment from the rear simply cannot make up for the losses at the front.

Zhang Yong had weapons and ammunition, but no men. The men were being consumed every day, but they were not replenished for a long time.

"Rumble..."

"Rumble..."

Japanese aircraft dropped aerial bombs.

A huge explosion enveloped the surrounding area for fifty meters.

Those soldiers hiding in the trenches would also be shocked to death.

Generational differences in national strength.

It is simply not something that can be compensated for by manpower.

"Commissioner!"

"Commissioner!"
