The desperate Eitaro Uchiyama made up his mind to keep kneeling and facing Dongpu like this until the Chinese army broke through the city defenses and entered the headquarters. Take your own life.

However, the death of Uchiyama Eitaro and others has not yet officially arrived.

At ten o'clock in the morning, under the strict order of Anan Weiji, the 54th Division once again launched a fierce attack on the Chinese army responsible for intercepting.

A large number of Japanese combat aircraft groups also came to cooperate frantically and dropped a large number of bombs and gas bombs.

After a fierce fight, the Devil's 54th Division tore a hole. Thousands of Devil soldiers broke through the front line of defense and rushed to the suburbs less than 5 kilometers away from Yichang City.

After Chen Cixiu heard the news, he was so anxious that he went into battle to command the 2nd Army and part of the siege force to attack the Japanese army.

After a bloody battle, the Sixth Theater finally blocked the Japanese army and repelled it.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, almost all the Japanese defense lines in Yichang City were broken, leaving only the line of Dongshan Temple that had not been broken.

The Chinese offensive troops from other directions entered the city again, and once again launched fierce street battles with the Japanese army. The offensive troops gradually reached the core position of the Japanese army in Yichang City: the division headquarters in the city center.

At this time, however, the situation changed again.

The 54th Division and the 18th Division of the Japanese Army successively broke through the interception defense line and rushed to the suburbs in the south and northeast of Yichang City, only one step away from Yichang City.

But at this moment, the sky suddenly blew a strong wind, and then it rained heavily.

In Yichang, Hubei in winter, such violent storms are very rare. Both the enemy and the enemy were very surprised, and they were all passive by the sudden weather.

However, Chen Cixiu, who was determined after eating the weights, did not order the troops to stop the attack because of this. Instead, he ordered the siege troops to step up the offensive, and pressed all the reserve troops on the other side of the river to resist.

Braving the storm, the enemy and us fought fiercely on various battlefields in the city of Yichang, the south of Yichang, and the northeast of Yichang.

Due to the bad weather, the progress of the siege troops suddenly slowed down a lot.

In Yichang City, the streets were full of corpses soaked in rainwater. The rainwater mixed with colored blood and turned into brown blood, which accumulated on the street to form a sea of ​​blood as deep as two feet.

When these bloody waters flowed into the Yangtze River, the rolling Yangtze River water was also dyed blood red.

At this moment, Chen Cixiu was standing in the riverside command post on the other side of the river, staring at the bloody water pouring out of the city, waiting anxiously for the final news.

"Report to Chief Chen that the 2nd Army has suffered heavy casualties and is no longer able to stop the attack of the Japanese 54th Division."

"Report to Chief Chen that the first part of the 20th Independent Mixed Brigade of the Japanese Army has broken through the defense line of the 55th Division and entered the city."

"Report to Mr. Chen, the 121st Division of the Japanese Army is being attacked by the 54th Division of the Japanese Army, our army"

"Report to Chief Chen, the 77th Army..."

However, instead of good news, a series of bad news came, constantly stimulating Chen Cixiu's tense nerves.

The Japanese army, which is relatively superior in weapons and equipment, and all of them are red-eyed, are like groups of fierce and fearless beasts constantly hitting the cage, launching fierce attacks, and breaking through the interception positions bit by bit.

The Chinese troops in the Sixth War Zone, which were responsible for blocking the rescue of the Japanese troops, were experiencing increasing casualties, and the defense line was already leaking everywhere and was about to collapse.

"Mr. Chen, please send an urgent call!"

At this moment, Chen Cixiu once again received an urgent telegram that he least wanted to see: "Stop the attack on Yichang, and all troops return to the original defense zone."

"Is it really so short of success?"

After reading the telegram, Chen Cixiu suddenly felt dizzy, and staggered unsteadily.

"Mr. Chen, are you alright?"

A staff officer hurried forward to support Chen Cixiu.

"it's okay no problem!"

Chen Cixiu waved his hand blankly.

Hurrah, it's raining heavily, and it doesn't stop.

Chen Cixiu's eyes were red and he was staring at the direction of Yichang. A strong sense of loss and pain surged into his heart, like poisonous snakes biting and devouring his internal organs, making him so uncomfortable that he wanted to draw his gun and kill himself!

Just one last step away, Yichang City should be broken.

Just a little bit, the bloody and sinful 13th Division of the Devils should be completely wiped out.

It's just a little short of the last bit, and you can get rid of the shame and regain this strategically important military town!

However, with such a small difference, the battle of Yichang could only fall short, and all previous efforts were wasted!

For the resumption of the Yichang City Defeat, the Sixth War Zone can be said to have given everything, put all the bets and chips, and paid an extremely heavy price.

In the end, he lost everything!

How can Chen Cixiu be reconciled, how can he let go of all these things?

"God, why are you so short-sighted?"

"Why do you have such a violent storm at this juncture?"

"Could it be that good people don't live long, while evils last for thousands of years?"

In Chen Cixiu's heart right now, there are really a thousand disappointments, 1 resentments, and a million grievances!

But what can we do then?

Before Chen Cixiu became the commander-in-chief of the Sixth Theater, the Sixth Theater had undergone two divisions and two abolitions.

The current sixth war zone is the third division, because the Japanese army's capture of Yichang posed a serious military threat to the accompanying capital Chongqing.

Therefore, in order to defend the outskirts of Chongqing, the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government took the Yangtze River as the center, divided the territory of the Fifth and Ninth War Zones, and rebuilt the Sixth War Zone, with 17 infantry divisions and a naval fleet under its jurisdiction.

Such a heavy army group is not to compete with the devils for a city or land, but to defend the companion capital Chongqing and guard the gate of Sichuan.

As the saying goes, "the business of beheading is done by someone, but the business of losing money is not asked."

Therefore, in this situation where the benefits and costs are completely unequal, the national government will not allow Chen Cixiu to deal a devastating blow to the sixth theater just to take a gamble!

Otherwise, it would be tantamount to abolishing martial arts, opening the door, and welcoming the devils into Sichuan!

Chapter 1406 Ten Dead and No Life

"Pass my order! All ministries stop attacking and retreat back to the original defense zone in an orderly manner."

Although extremely unwilling, Chen Cixiu had no choice but to issue this order.

But this short sentence seemed to have exhausted all his energy, and Chen Cixiu suddenly felt physically and mentally exhausted, feeling weak as if his body had been hollowed out.

"What? Retreat in an orderly manner immediately? How can this be? Wouldn't the blood of the brothers be shed in vain?"

After receiving the telegram, Wu Qiwei, the commander-in-chief of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, was dumbfounded. As the main attacking force, they tried their best and shed the last drop of blood, and they were about to break through Yichang City.

But at this juncture, Chen Cixiu actually gave the order for the entire army to retreat.

"Ah! Time is also fate and destiny!"

But then again, Wu Qiwei was not surprised by this order, and was even expected.

Because Wu Qiwei was very clear about the progress of the battle, why didn't he understand that Chen Cixiu who gave this order was more painful and helpless than him!

"Transmit the order immediately, all ministries stop fighting and begin to retreat in an orderly manner!"

After standing blankly for a long while, Wu Qiwei finally could only let out a long sigh into the phone, and turned his head in pain to look at Yichang City, where the heavy rain was pouring ahead.

"what?"

"Is it really a failure?"

"No! No! We can't retreat, the master seat can't let the brothers sacrifice in vain!"

"Military seat, please, let our division attack one last time! We can definitely kill all the devils in the city, and smash that old devil Uchiyama Eitaro to pieces!"

"Woooooo! We can't just give up like this!"

"Brothers, I'm sorry! Today, we, we can't avenge you."

After receiving the order, all the Chinese officers and soldiers of the offensive and defensive troops were in agony, and their hearts almost collapsed!

But the military orders are like a mountain, and the situation is cruel and cold, which does not allow them to act according to their inner thoughts, so they can only hide their aggrieved and pain deeply in their hearts.

"Your Excellency, good news! Great news!"

Just when Eitaro Uchiyama was waiting to die, things seemed to turn around suddenly.

"Nani? The reinforcements have already entered the city? Is the Chinese army showing signs of retreating? The Imperial Japanese Army is about to complete the anti-siege of the Chinese army?"

After hearing this series of news, Uchiyama Eitaro's eyes suddenly became lively, as if a two or three-year-old child suddenly received a dream gift, and the whole person was about to go crazy with joy.

"Yoxi! That's great! Hurry up and tell all the warriors of the empire the good news, so that they can persevere."

After confirming the news, Eitaro Uchiyama was so excited that he quickly ordered loudly: "Tell them, the powerful and invincible imperial army of the Great Japanese Empire will soon continue to enter the city!

The damn Chinese army is about to pay a hundred times the price for their stupidity and arrogance!We must use their blood and heads to pay homage to the spirits of the Imperial Warriors of the Great Sun! "

Eitaro Uchiyama was really going crazy with joy, he completely lost the despair of Qiqiaiai, and turned into a brutal and crazy bloodthirsty maniac in a blink of an eye.

"My God, is this true?"

"Haha, we are saved!"

"His Majesty the Emperor onboard!"

"The Great Japanese Imperial Army is on board!"

"Amaterasu God bless!"

Immediately afterwards, all the devil officers in the room began to yell crazily, as if they had really escaped and ascended to heaven, and it was normal.

Well, anyway, at this moment, they are really pleasantly surprised and happy, they can live well, and who would like to use a knife to slash their stomachs a few times?

It's just that they were happy a little too early.

On a national army position in the northeast of Yichang City, more than 100 Chinese officers and soldiers are still fighting bloody battles with the devils. They are the rear troops of the whole division, responsible for blocking the Japanese army and buying time for the main force to withdraw.

To put it bluntly, they are just a bunch of abandoned children who have died without life.

There is no way, once the two sides exchange fire and are glued together, they can't just leave if they want, someone has to stand up and sacrifice bravely, and act as a dead man to take care of the rear!

Otherwise, no one will be able to leave!

"Brothers, don't be in a hurry to get on the road, wait for us! We will come to accompany you in a while, let's walk together, the road to Huangquan will not be lonely."

In a trench, the head of the regiment, Liu Shengke, was full of determination. He was holding a bundle of grenades. Through the gaps in the sandbags on the trench, he watched the Japanese troops advancing step by step in the distance. He had already made final preparations.

At this time, Liu Shengke's head and arms were covered with blood-stained gauze. Although the rainwater kept falling and diluted it, it couldn't wash away the bright red blood stains.

After several days of high-intensity fighting, Liu Shengke has been injured in many places, but he has always insisted on fighting on the front line.

"Come on, you little devils, grandpa is waiting for you here!"

"You don't lose if you kill one, and you earn one if you kill two! I've killed more than a dozen today, and I've already made a lot of money!"

"Come on, you bastards, come here if you are not afraid of death!"

The Chinese officers and soldiers who fought bloody battles around Liu Shengke were almost all injured, but everyone was still working hard, persevering, and desperately.

The reinforced regiment of 2000 people is now down to just over 100 people.

As the frontline blocking force, they have no way to retreat with the large force, and can only stay and take charge of blocking the rear.

Under such circumstances, Liu Shengke and others naturally knew what this meant.

There is no doubt that they are doomed to die, and they are doomed to sacrifice their lives for the country today!

However, Liu Shengke and others did not lose their fighting spirit because of this, they did not stop fighting, and they were still fighting bloody battles.

Without him, just to buy more time for the large troops to evacuate, just to kill a few more devils, and to avenge myself and my brothers who died!

"Empire warriors charge! Don't let those Chinese soldiers run away!"

"Onboard! Onboard!"

When the devil commander discovered that the main force of the Huaxia army was withdrawing rapidly, he ordered the troops to pursue them across the board like chicken blood.

Red-eyed, the devil soldiers also began to yell loudly, led by the few remaining tanks and chariots, and charged at the Huaxia position in front of which the firepower had been greatly weakened.

"Damn it, come on! If you want to die, die together!"

Seeing the Devil Tank getting closer and closer, Liu Shengke showed a maniacal smile, and firmly held the fuse with his fingers, waiting for the moment when the Devil Tank rushed into the trench.

"Brothers, see you in the next life!"

"Haha, you can't be born in the same year, the same month, and the same day, but you can die in the same year, the same month, and the same day, it's a pleasure!"

"Brothers, let's go together later, don't forget anyone!"

While the rest of the officers and soldiers were struggling to shoot, they were also making final preparations.
