?? After two days of fighting, more than half of Shao Fei's company suffered casualties, and less than 40 people could fight. With such air raids and artillery attacks on the ground, such casualties were inevitable, and Shao Fei could not do anything about it. Compared with the flank positions, the 262 losses of the main position were more serious, and the casualties of the whole brigade were more than half.

After dinner, Shao Fei was called to the headquarters by Gao Zhisong. In the command headquarters, there are only brigade commander Gao Zhisong and deputy brigade commander Liao Lingqi.

Seeing Shao Fei coming in, Gao Zhisong stepped forward, grabbed Shao Fei's shoulders with both hands, and said gratefully: "Thank you really for this day, your Eighth Route Army can come to live and die with our 88th Division without hesitation." ”

Shao Fei could see that the more Gao Zhisong said this, the more he had something to ask for, and it was difficult to talk about, so he said: "There is the Eighth Route Army here, only the Chinese ** people, they are all their own people, and they don't need to say these polite words." Brigadier Commander, let's get to the point. ”

At this time, Liao Lingqi came over and said to Shao Fei in a tentative tone: "Our two brigades have lost more than half, and we are facing Japanese troops several times our size, Yuhuatai will definitely not be able to stand it, and we will all die." I think you should leave as soon as possible, such a good team can't be sacrificed in Yuhuatai in vain and become cannon fodder. ”

From the tone of his voice, Shao Fei heard that it was half tentative, half sincere, and after chuckling, he said, "Until the last moment, we won't leave." The two chiefs were so attentive, they must have something to trust each other. Let's get it straight. ”

Gao Zhisong was ashamed after hearing this, and also admired Shao Fei's observation, so he didn't beat around the bush and said, "Ashamed." The 262 Brigade in the main position suffered most of the casualties, and there was the top priority. Once there is a loss of rain, Huatai is not guaranteed, and Nanjing is not guaranteed. Also, Deputy Brigade Commander Liao's words just now are also sincere, you can leave at any time if you want to, because you have done enough for us. ”

Only then did Shao Fei understand Gao Zhisong's intention of calling him, he didn't say it just now, it was because he was not his subordinate, and the main position was much more dangerous than the flank position, so Shao Fei said: "I know, I'll lead the team to the main position." ”

At this time, Liao Lingqi said: "Brother Shao Fei, to be honest, I, Liao, admire your righteous deeds. I can see that you are sincere in helping the 88th Division, but I also know that you have other plans for taking the initiative to come here this time, because it is not only dangerous here, but also positional warfare is not suitable for you. Say, what do you ask of us, our 88th Division will try to satisfy you. ”

Shao Fei was a little ashamed after hearing this, this time it was his turn to speak.

Gao Zhisong saw Shao Fei hesitating, and knew that Liao Lingqi was right, so he patted Shao Fei and said calmly: "Just what you have done for our 88th Division in the past two days, you can make any request." ”

Speaking of this, Shao Fei could have asked Gao Zhisong to issue an order and ask the boat of the 88th Division's baggage battalion to escort him across the river, but he didn't, he just smiled ashamedly and said: "As for the reason, I can't say more, I hope the two commanders will understand." Let's just think I have a grudge against the devil's Sixth Division. ”

After Gao Zhisong and Liao Lingqi looked at each other, they said to Shao Fei: "I understand, you must have come all the way from Shanxi to have some special mission, but I believe in your character, and we will not be reluctant to say that it is inconvenient." Please, that's all for the rest. ”

"Yes!" Shao Fei saluted the two with a solemn military salute, and after the two returned the military salute, Shao Fei left the command headquarters and took the special combat team to the position, Zhu Chibu of the 262nd Brigade.

Shao Fei's arrival made Zhu Chi overjoyed, he had seen the strength of the special combat team during the day, and as soon as they came, the main position had an extra guarantee. So Zhu Chi handed over his spy company to Shao Fei, and they did not stick to their positions, they fought in all directions, and if that position was lost, they went to that position to make amends, so as to ensure that the main position was not lost.

On the 10th, the Japanese army continued to increase its troops, and almost used most of the entire 6th Division, about 20,000 people, to besiege Yuhuatai on all sides.

Why did the Japanese army use a division to attack **2 brigades, this is because the commander of the Japanese division, Gu Shoufu, knew that as long as Yuhuatai was captured, Nanjing City would be captured.

At this time, the Japanese heavy weapons had reached the front line, and they used heavy artillery and aircraft to bombard and shell repeatedly, and then the infantry charged in large groups, and at the same time organized a group of tanks to launch a group charge.

The forward position was defended by the 262nd Brigade supplemented by a regiment, and the regiment commander Hua Pinzhang risked his life in front of the battle to direct the battle.

The tanks were constantly approaching the forward positions, and the main gun muzzles were glowing with scorching fire from time to time. The 88th Division did not have anti-tank guns, and many soldiers rushed out of the trenches with cluster grenades to their deaths, trying to blow up Japanese tanks at close range. But under the cover of no less than thousands of Japanese infantry, these soldiers did not break out of ten meters, and were directly killed by S in front of the position.

Hua Pinzhang was so anxious that he immediately ordered his soldiers to push up the blown down trees, large rocks, and even the corpses of his martyred comrades to block the Japanese tanks. The ** soldier who was still alive tearfully brought the remains of his comrades-in-arms who had been with him day and night to the front of the position. Hua Pinzhang immediately ordered the troops to withdraw to the second line of defense to continue to block the Japanese army.

Because the terrain of Yuhuatai was too low, the Japanese tanks were like no one, and the cold tracks ruthlessly pressed over the corpses of the ** soldiers, and they were blocked by boulders, trees, and piles of corpses until the front of the position.

Some of the wounded ** soldiers did not withdraw from the defense line in time and still insisted on fighting, all they could do was throw the grenades around them. One of the young soldiers, whose legs were broken, strapped a grenade to his body, climbed up and killed a Japanese tank.

A large number of infantry behind the tank quickly rushed into the trench and wiped out the wounded ** soldier mercilessly. After Hua Pinzhang returned to the second line of defense, he quickly launched a fierce counterattack.

Hua Pinzhang knew very well in his heart that the longer the time dragged on, the follow-up devils would completely enter the first line of defense, and it would be difficult to recapture it when the time came. So he immediately gave the order to charge, and took all the officers and men to recapture the first line of defense.

A brutal white-knuckle battle between the two sides in the first line of defense. The officers and men of the regiment did not retreat to the death, and resisted desperately. They were not ready to leave Yuhuatai alive, they held the mentality of killing one to make one, killing two to earn one, and fighting bloodily.

At one point, the battle entered a stalemate. Suddenly, the sound of killing behind the position shook the sky, and Shao Fei rushed over with the spy company and joined the battle.

After half an hour of desperate fighting, the 262nd Brigade recaptured its position again. The entire trench was full of the corpses of ** soldiers and devils, and the dust on the position was turned very muddy by the blood flowing.

Shao Fei and his ten special combat team members were all blood-stained in their clothes, and some of the ** soldiers were out of breath, and their spirits were relaxed and they sat on the ground.

Hua Pinzhang stood above the position and shouted loudly: "Be a hero, and die as a ghost!" Destroy the Japanese invaders, Yang's military spirit! ”

Hua Pinzhang's words once again boosted the morale of the whole group, and he knew that now was not the time to relax, and the devils would immediately launch another more violent attack.

This is only one position in Yuhuatai, and the other positions are still fighting. The two armies fought fiercely for a whole day, and after a day of strong attack, the Japanese army was not able to move forward, but suffered more than 2,000 casualties again in Yuhuatai, and the corpses of Chinese and Japanese officers and soldiers were covered with Yuhuatai, and the blood dyed the entire Yuhuatai red.
