The blood of the Anti-Japanese War stained the mountains and rivers

"Yes."

Casualties in war are inevitable. As the head of the regiment, Yang Ling has no ability to stop the casualties. He can only try his best to fight for pensions for the brothers who died and the brothers who were injured. This is the only thing he can do.

"The missing brothers should have been dispersed last night, and each company sent a combat search team out to look for them."

"Yes!" The officers all responded one after another.

After finding out the casualties, Yang Ling put away his notebook and raised his head.

"Brothers played well last night. The four squadrons deployed by the Devils on the front line of Changling were all wiped out by our division. Now the 106th Division of the Devils is already a grasshopper after autumn. It will not be able to jump for a few days. In the next Combat strength, I also hope that you will continue to work hard and cooperate with friendly forces to wipe out the 106th Division in one fell swoop."

Hearing that their 51st Division had wiped out nearly [-] people from the four squadrons of Devils last night, the officers became excited as if they had been pumped.

"Tuan Zuo, let's fight like this next! Let our battalion take the lead!" Although Liu Yidao didn't close his eyes all night, he was full of energy and started the battle.

Chen Ming, the commander of the second battalion, said not to be outdone: "Sir, our battalion has suffered little losses, let our battalion take the lead!"

"I said, Old Chen, how about we take it out to practice to decide who will take the lead?" Liu Yidao challenged Chen Ming with his neck raised.

"Just practice, I'm afraid you won't succeed." Chen Ming also rolled up his sleeves, glaring at Liu Yidao not to be outdone.

"Okay, okay, I'm already the battalion commander, so I'm not afraid of people laughing at me." Yang Ling stopped them in time.

"The commander has ordered that our daytime task is to consolidate the position and prevent the devils from counterattacking. We must tighten this hole, fight steadily, and take the time to rest at the same time."

"Ah? Not attacking anymore?" Liu Yidao said with his head downcast when he heard that.

Yang Ling gave Liu Yidao a blank look and said, "The meat is covered in the pot, why are you in a hurry."

The officers in the tent all laughed loudly. Although the battle was cruel, but this time victory was expected, they were in a good mood after all.

"Hey, isn't it itchy hands?" Liu Yidao laughed.

"As the chief officers of each battalion company, you must make it clear to your brothers when you go back. The Matsuura Division is still strong. We must also talk about strategy and tactics when we fight against him. Our task now is to surround them. Wait a few days. If they don't eat or drink, we'll be fine."

Chapter 633 Counterattack ([-])

The 106th Division commanded by Matsuura Junrokuro was surrounded by more than [-] Chinese officers and soldiers in the Wanjialing Mountains like an iron barrel.

At first, the head of the division, Matsuura Junrokuro, was calm, but when the troops rushed left and right and couldn't break the encirclement, as time went by, he also panicked.

General Wu Qiwei, the former commander-in-chief of the Chinese army, learned through probing attacks that the Matsuura Division was not as weak as the intelligence said, and its combat effectiveness was still strong.

Yang Ling and his troops paused their attack after regaining the front line of Changling through a night of fighting.

The one-night battle made the brothers exhausted, and they needed to rest. At the same time, the ammunition was consumed a lot and needed to be replenished urgently.

This time, in order to encircle and annihilate the Matsuura Division, the Ninth War Zone mobilized a large amount of ammunition. Although the ammunition was sufficient, the equipment in the hands of the brothers was still poor, and they could not form an advantage in fighting the devils.

The attacking troops from all walks of life are taking the time to rest, actively replenishing ammunition, and preparing for the next attack.

Although the Matsuura Division trapped in the encirclement was extremely exhausted, they had to actively prepare for a counterattack.

"We're running out of ammunition, and we've run out of food..."

The captain of the devil's supply unit reported bad news to Matsuura Junrokuro.

In order to achieve the effect of a surprise attack when the Matsuura Division rushed to Wanjialing, everyone went into battle lightly, and only carried six days of dry food.

Now they are surrounded by the Chinese army like an iron barrel, and they can't get out. Compared with the large number of Chinese troops, their own crisis has also broken out.

Matsuura Junrokuro was already depressed because of the crisis, but when he heard that the food and ammunition were running out, he looked even more exhausted, and he was stunned for a long time without saying a word.

"General, general..." Seeing that Junrokuro Matsuura was in a daze, the logistics team called him a few times in a low voice.

Matsuura Junrokuro came back to his senses, looked at the serious-faced captain of the supply chain standing in front of him, waved his hands and said: "I will solve the problem of running out of ammunition and food soon, you go back first."

The captain of the supply chain looked at Junrokuro Matsuura, whose eyes were bloodshot, his lips twitched and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. He saluted and turned around to leave the division headquarters.

The army is hungry and cannot fight without ammunition. I am afraid that before the Chinese army comes over, they will fall down first.

Matsuura Junrokuro stabilized his mind and decided to solve this imminent problem first.

"Sakurai-san, come here." Matsuura Junrokuro called to the staff officer.

A lean staff officer quickly walked up to Matsuura Junrokuro and stood still, snapping a salute: "What is the general's order?"

"Please send a report to the commander quickly, requesting airdrops of foster care and ammunition, otherwise our division will not be able to persist until the breakout..."

Seeing Matsuura Junrokuro's serious face, the staff officer Sakurai realized the seriousness of the problem, without the slightest hesitation, he strode towards the radio station's room.

As soon as Staff Sakurai turned and left, Chief of Staff Yoshitaka Akiyama walked over with a message.

"General, all the regiments have reported that the Chinese troops attacking them have stopped attacking," Colonel Akiyama Yoshitaka reported.

Obviously, Junrokuro Matsuura had anticipated this and was overly surprised. After all, the Chinese army attacked all night, and even Iron Man couldn't hold on. It would be strange if the attack didn't stop.

Matsuura Junrokuro asked: "How is the position?"

"The situation is not optimistic. Most of the outer outposts have been lost, especially on the Changling line. The 74st Division of the 51th Army of China has arrived on the battlefield, and our division's way out of the siege has been blocked again."

Chief of Staff Akiyama Yoshitaka's voice was very low, after all, it was not good news.

After hearing the report, Matsuura Junrokuro's face was gloomy. If they want to join the 27th Division that came to meet them, they must get through the Changling line.

Previously, he sent the powerful 113th Regiment to attack the front line of Changling, and disabled the blocking 58th Division.

A fierce light flashed in Matsuura Junrokuro's eyes, and he ordered: "Send a report to the head of the Aoki Brigade, asking him to attack the front line of Changling at all costs, and must tear open the breakthrough passage."

"Hi!" Chief of Staff Akiyama Yoshitaka also knew the importance of the Changling front line, and was about to deliver an order, but was stopped by Matsuura Junrokuro.

"and many more."

"What else does the general want?"

Junrokuro Matsuura pointed to the map and said, "Tell the head of the Qingmu Brigade that Zhanggu Mountain at the northern end of Changling Mountain is the commanding height, so you must send a strong force there."

Chief of Staff Akiyama Yoshitaka nodded: "I will remind the head of the Aoki Brigade."

At ten o'clock in the morning, the devil's counterattack troops arrived as scheduled. Standing on the exposed and blackened Changling position, one could clearly see the devil soldiers all over the mountains and plains rushing towards them ferociously.

"The devils are coming! Each company enters the position!"

Seeing the ghost soldiers pouring out of the weedy jungle, Battalion Commander Liu Yidao gasped, even his voice changed.

The devils were raging like a tide. In order to tear apart the position on the Changling line, the 136th Brigade under the command of Major General Aoki Kei all pressed up.

In addition to investing a reorganized regiment in front of their Changling position in Yangling, they also invested heavily in Zhang Gushan, the commanding height at the northern end of Changling.
