Chapter 258: Human Heart

The 121st Regiment of the 662nd Division was the first unit to engage the devils among the several rescuers sent by the 25th Army. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info head Zheng Tao has already received many telegrams from his superiors Wu Jianping and Wang Shankui tonight. Both military divisions ordered the 662nd Regiment to break through the Japanese blocking forces in the shortest possible time and rescue the trapped commander-in-chief Huang Haoran at all costs.

The main force of the combat forces of the 25th Group Army in the hinterland was two divisions of Cao Fulin's 55th Army and most of Xie Wendong's 27th Army. Wu Jianping's 121st Division had only two regiments resting here, but Wang Huanzhi of Tianjia Town was the first to send a telegram to Wu Jianping.

The 121st Division originally belonged to the Guizhou Army, and now belongs to Wang Shankui's 100th Army. Among the division-level units of the 25th Group Army, their loyalty to Huang Haoran was second only to the 99th Division of the starting unit and the 139th Division split from the 99th Division in the later period.

is related to the safety of his eldest brother Huang Haoran, and Wang Huanzhi is cautious when choosing a rescue force. He was not very relieved about Cao Fulin, who was added in by Bandao, not to mention Xie Wendong, who had a bad record and made Huang Haoran rebel.

The current situation of the 25th Army is a microcosm of the Chinese army in the War of Resistance. From the outside, it looks like a whole, but the interior is full of various small hills. Most commanders are stuck in the warlord melee period, and like to balance the situation.

has followed Huang Haoran for many years, but Wang Huanzhi is still an old-style officer in essence. Leaving Huang Haoran's command, he was very accustomed to the old way. Completely ignoring the hard persuasion of Fan Jie, the chief of staff of the 25th Army.

In the final analysis, Wang Huanzhi is still not confident, he is really not sure that he can control the 25th Army on his own.

Since the beginning of the Songhu battlefield, Huang Haoran started with the basic force of the 99th Division. The reason why his small group has been able to grow and grow, going to various battlefields and constantly pulling in friendly troops to become his own. Relying on real military exploits, the temptation to lead everyone to win the battle together, and a lot of real money from private pockets.

These conditions can be on, but he Wang Huanzhi doesn't have them!

Huang Haoran can calmly rub the many forces under his command together and throw them into the battlefield, but Wang Huanzhi can't do this.

Because in the eyes of the generals of the 25th Group Army, Wang Huanzhi is Huang Haoran's agent, and his value is completely dependent on Huang Haoran. Once he loses Huang Haoran's protection, he, the steward of the group army, is afraid that except for a few directly subordinate troops of the general assembly, he will not even be able to transfer a regiment in the hands of the division commander below.

Only the two old brothers, Shen Yuanlong and Wang Shankui, who have been with each other since they formed the army in Wucheng, are Wang Huanzhi's staunch allies.

Shen Laoer's 99th Army carried out the task of besieging the 27th Division and was not nearby. At the most critical moment, Wang Huanzhi had to rely on his lineage, Wang Shankui's 100th army.

So there was an arrangement in which the 121st Division rushed to the forefront.

Looking at Wang Huanzhi, who was a little flustered but stubborn, thinking about Shen Yuanlong, who had a hot temper and was difficult to control, as well as various small hills within the group army, Fan Jie couldn't help but reach out and stroke his forehead.

Due to the constant fighting with the Japanese army, there was no time to reorganize the troops and digest the forces of all parties, resulting in Huang Haoran's small group not being able to move towards regularization.

Now the 25th Army is like a trading company with many shareholders, led entirely by the personal charisma of the chairman. With Huang Haoran, the chairman, in office, the trading company can run smoothly. If something happens to Huang Haoran, the shareholders will not accept anyone, and it is easy to break up.

Even if it's for the future of hundreds of thousands of officers and soldiers, you can't do anything with the general seat!

Fan Jie, who was put aside by Wang Huanzhi, could only pray for Huang Haoran's safety in his heart at this time.

**************************************

"Second battalion commander, let the sixth company rush again! If I can't take it, I'll change people! ”

The 662nd Regiment had been storming the entire line for more than half an hour, and the total number of casualties among officers and men exceeded 400. The little devil on the opposite side behaved quite stubbornly, and the battle line remained in place. This made the head of the regiment Zheng Tao anxious, and he could only keep scratching his head with his hands.

Four Maxine heavy machine guns lined up, plus four 82mm mortars, concentrated and fiercely attacked the devil's position, which was the strongest firepower that the 662nd Regiment could use.

The Sixth Company, which had just been repulsed, once again pounced on the enemy with bayonets, and the backs of the officers and men in the telescope were so resolute.

After the previous charge, more than half of the casualties had already been lost. Even if this second round of charge can kill the Japanese position, I am afraid that the sixth company will be canceled.

There are too many crooked tricks of the devil on the other side, and the firepower is so powerful that it is completely abnormal, and the bullets flying in the night sky are like flowing fire, harvesting human lives at any time.

Although the Qianjun army was very loyal to Huang Haoran, its combat effectiveness was not too strong. The speed of the 100th Army's rearmament was affected by the speed of the Wuhan government's acceptance of Soviet aid, and the progress was much lower than expected, and the 139th Division had to be given priority as the absolute main force, and the 121st Division could only be placed in the rear.

If it weren't for Wang Huanzhi's large number of good guns that had been replaced by Soviet-style weapons for the basic troops, the price paid by the 662nd Regiment tonight would have been even greater.

Seeing through the binoculars that his subordinates had fallen dozens more, and they were blocked by the devil's machine gun and began to retreat, and Regiment Commander Zheng finally couldn't help but scold:

"Damn, it's back again! Which division are these devils from? How to have so many automatic firearms! It would be nice if there were a few mountain cannons......"

"Tuanzao, let's go up in the three battalions! The second battalion is already injured and can't attack......"

It was the commander of the third battalion who asked for the battle, this guy was already eager to try, and if it weren't for the fact that the marching sequence was at the back, they would have been in the line of fire a long time ago.

"What's the hurry? You've got you covered! We are not the 99th Division, and we don't have the capital to bully people with firepower to win this battle, so we have to use our old skills - flank detours ......"

Zheng Tao decided not to attack again, and a battalion under his command was about to be filled in, but he didn't know much about the devil's losses, and this transaction was a bit of a loss.

"The flanks are roundabout, will the movements be too slow......? The military and division seats are death orders, requiring us to ...... at all costs."

"It's better to be slow than not to be able to beat down! The devil is obviously a machine gun array here, if we fight him here, without artillery, I can't shoot it down at dawn! If you delay the time of the Commander-in-Chief of the Rescue, you will not have enough to cut off ten heads......"

Zheng Tao interrupted the protest of the third battalion commander, he understood the truth that speed is not enough.

The old tactics soon worked, and under the suppression of the flank fire of the 3rd Battalion, the 1st and 2nd Battalions broke through the frontal defense line of the Japanese army, killed and wounded more than 200 Japanese soldiers, and captured nine crooked machine guns.

The 622nd Regiment is getting closer and closer to their commander-in-chief, Huang Haoran......

Almost at the same time, Cao Fulin's 55th Army and 29th Division and Xie Wendong's 27th Army and 45th Division also rushed away from the Japanese army in front of them. These two generals, whom Wang Huanzhi did not dare to fully trust, acted quite decisively, and ordered all the regimental and battalion commanders to supervise the battle to the front line. Their performance was completely beyond Wang Huanzhi's expectations.

In the end, it is Fan Jie, who is the chief of staff, who sees people's hearts more accurately.

Although Cao Fulin and Xie Wendong now have heavy troops, they are still small people in the Central Army. If it weren't for Huang Haoran, a big tree, who left the 25th Army, the 55th Army and the 27th Army would only be annexed. So for the two of them, Huang Haoran must live well......

Huang Haoran has already become everyone's Huang Haoran, and has become a flag standing in front of more than 100,000 officers and soldiers! (To be continued.) )
