Chapter 744 Must Be Taken! (5th watch completed)
Changhewan Front, Eighteenth Army Headquarters.
It was past four o'clock in the morning, but the lights in the shelter were still on.
Deputy Army Commander Chen Pei walked into the shelter quickly with a body of wind and dust, and Peng Shan, the commander of the 18th Army, who was studying the map with several staff officers, immediately raised his head and looked at Chen Pei.
"Throne!" Chen Pei walked up to Peng Shan and stood up and saluted.
Peng Shan returned the military salute and asked, "How is the morale of the 11th Division?" ”
"The morale is very high, and they are all suffocated!" Chen Pei took a breath and said, "I also heard several operational staff officers of the 11th Division discussing in private, saying that you have prejudices against Hu Lian and deliberately suppress their division. ”
After a pause, he said: "But the morale of the 11th Division is really high, and the officers and men of the whole division look at people with fire in their eyes, as if they want to burn people!" ”
"That's what Lao Tzu wants!" Peng Shan said, "It's time to release Hu Lian, the tiger!" ”
After a pause, he said: "Lao Chen, come and see, the 18th Division and the 199th Division attacked fiercely for most of the night, and they fought together for a full three and a half regiments, and it was not for nothing!" ”
Chen Pei stepped forward and stood on the edge of the map.
Looking in the direction of Peng Shan's finger, Chen Pei saw at a glance that the defensive formation of the 85th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army had been concave from the middle.
If you look closely, you can see that the depression is marked with Yantou Mountain.
"Here!" Peng Shan patted the direction of Yantou Mountain, and said in a deep voice, "As long as Yantou Mountain is taken, the defensive formation of the 85th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army will be cut into two sections by me, and it will fall into the predicament of not being able to take care of each other, and when the 18th Division and the 199th Division rush again, they will have a great chance to defeat the 85th Wing!" ”
After a pause, he said: "The defeat of the 85th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army will also open the door to victory, and the annihilation of the 22nd Division of the Japanese Army before dark today will become a high probability event!" ”
Chen Pei snorted lightly and said, "But this is a hard bone!" ”
Speaking of this, he paused, and then said: "Yantou Mountain is the highest peak within a radius of more than ten miles, and it is impossible for the little devil not to know the importance of Yantou, so he will definitely deploy heavy troops on Yantou Mountain!" ”
"So what?" Peng Shan said, "If it weren't for the hard bones, Lao Tzu wouldn't have gnawed it!" ”
After speaking, Peng Shan picked up a telegram from the table and handed it to Chen Pei, saying, "Look at this." ”
Chen Pei took the telegram a little dazedly, but after just one glance, his whole face immediately changed.
The telegram is a telegram forwarded from the Governor's Department to report the loss of the former finger of Xiaogan.
Chen Pei held the telegram and said awe-inspiringly: "In just one day, the new 38th Division was disabled? ”
"It's basically disabled, but it's almost the same, three of the four regiment commanders were wounded, nine of the twelve battalion commanders died, and the remaining three were also seriously injured, I heard that even Sun Liren took a Browning pistol to the position." Peng Shan nodded, and said, "So there's not much time left for us!" ”
"Hmm." Chen Pei said, "So, we have to hold on tightly!" ”
Peng Shan nodded and said, "Tell Hu Lian that I will only give him two hours, and he must take the rock mountain before seven o'clock!" ”
"Yes!" Chen Pei nodded, then walked to the side and picked up the telephone, shook it twice, and said in a deep voice, "The headquarters of the Eleventh Division?" Hu Lian, listen well, the military seat orders you to take Yantou Mountain before seven o'clock in the morning! ”
……
"Yes! Mission completion guaranteed! Hu Lian yelled and hung up the phone.
The surrounding deputy division commanders, two brigade commanders, and six regiment commanders immediately surrounded them.
Hu Lian didn't say much, he reached out and took the steel helmet from the guard's hand and fastened it on his head, and then reached out and took the Bergman submachine gun from the other guard, and then turned around and walked out the door.
The deputy division commander, two brigade commanders, and four regiment commanders followed.
At this time, there is no need to say too much, just do it!
Outside the shelter was a trench, and Hu Lian led a group of senior officers down the trench straight to the assembly area.
I saw that under the dark night sky, more than 12,000 officers and men of the 11th Division had already completed their assembly and were quietly waiting for the order to attack.
As soon as he jumped up, Hu Lian jumped on the ridge in front of the assembly area.
With a condescending gaze, the eyes of more than 10,000 officers and soldiers in the division focused on Hu Lian.
Hu Lian took the megaphone from another guard, stretched out his hand and pointed to the Yantou Mountain in front of him, and said loudly: "Brothers of the 11th Division, have you seen that stone mountain?" ”
"See!"
"See!"
"See!"
More than 10,000 officers and soldiers responded violently, easily suppressing the gunfire and explosions in the nearby mountains.
"Good!" Hu Lian paused, and then said, "The military seat ordered us to take it down before seven o'clock in the morning, and I have already made a military order with the military seat!" As soon as the charge horn sounds, including me Hu Lian, one in the whole division counts as one, whether you are a groom, a man or a medic, you will charge me! ”
"Whoever is the first to rush to Yantou Mountain, Lao Tzu will be rewarded!"
"But, if anyone the dares to retreat, don't blame Lao Tzu for not recognizing people!"
"In this battle, either the devil dies, or we die! Did you hear it all? ”
"Hear me clearly!"
"Hear me clearly!"
"Hear me clearly!"
The officers and men of the whole division responded with a bang.
Hu Lian threw the megaphone and took the submachine gun back from the guard's hand.
Then, Hu Lian looked at the night sky in front of him, and immediately tore out his throat and howled hoarsely: "Brothers of the 11th Division, charge Lao Tzu and kill it......"
"Rush!"
"Kill!"
"Fight with the devil!"
"Fight with the little Toyo of the dog day!"
More than 12,000 officers and soldiers immediately roared.
In the next moment, the officers and soldiers who were pressed by the black pressure were like a tide, swarming forward.
"Rush, kill, kill, kill!" Hu Lian shouted as he walked forward.
"Rush, kill, kill, kill!" Countless officers and soldiers responded enthusiastically, and the tide swept past Hu Lian, rushing mightily to the not too high Yantou Mountain under the night sky ahead.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the officers and men of the 11th Division rushed down the mountain.
The next moment, a bright bullet trail bloomed on Yantou Mountain.
Under the criss-crossing and brilliant bullet tracer shuttling, the officers and men of the 11th Division fell down row after row and fell in a pool of blood, but the officers and soldiers who followed up did not pause at all, stepped on the corpses of their comrades and continued to move forward, rushing to the top of Yantou Mountain without hesitation.
In the army, watching his officers and soldiers fall one by one, Hu Lian was distressed like a knife!
But on the surface, Hu Lian was unmoved, and continued to shout and charge!
