The chief of staff attached great importance to Zhang Yunqing from the beginning and also highly respected him...

"Let's not talk about other things about Yunqing, but his thinking is pretty good. He has been fighting the Japanese since the beginning of the New Second Regiment. Whenever he encounters a Japanese army... he will fight with all his might, and no one can stop him from fighting the Japanese. Only people like him can truly fight the Japanese and truly lead our army to grow and develop!"

"We also watched this new second regiment slowly develop from just a gun and a sword. If I remember correctly, when the new second regiment was first established, there were only 1,800 people. I specially transferred him back from outside to serve as the leader of the new second regiment. That was a waste of talent..."

"Although the New Second Regiment was relatively weak at the time... with only two or three hundred rifles and a dozen light and heavy machine guns, it has developed to this point today. Tell me, who in our army is as rich as the Independent Column..."

"All this is their own credit. Under the leadership of Zhang Yunqing, this independent column has developed better and better and has grown to such a large scale. We should also praise them."

Anyway, the vice president has more confidence in Zhang Yunqing.

Even ah also placed great hopes on it.

Saying these words at this time is enough to show the vice president's importance to him.

"Since Yunqing's independent column wants to support Song County, we must continue to support them."

"After all, this may be an opportunity for us."

"Come back and tell the other troops over there to cooperate with the support troops of the independent column in their operations."

"At the same time, send a telegram to the commander over there to find out the situation."

The vice president also made up his mind to provide support.

......

The 33rd and 34th Divisions of the Central Army also arrived at the battlefield quickly.

The commander of the 33rd Division, Ouyang Qing, was still sitting in a car at this time.

Looking at the slightly dense artillery fire in the distance, Ouyang Qing's eyes also showed a trace of vigilance...

"It seems that this battle is indeed difficult to fight. Just listen to the sound of the cannons. There must be at least a dozen or even dozens of cannons bombarding the opposite Song County."

"We are still ten miles away from them, but this ten miles is enough for the Japanese to find us."

"I didn't expect these little devils to send out so many people and so many troops. It seems that Song County is indeed difficult to defend now."

What Ouyang Qing meant by this was that he wanted to stop supporting Song County...

He originally wanted to provide support, but when he encountered such fierce artillery fire, he became a little alert. After all, his life was in his own hands. If he lost his life, how could they proceed to the next step?

"Commander, what should we do now? Should we continue to advance or stay here?"

A staff officer standing by also asked Ouyang Qing.

Ouyang Qing shook his head.

"We have to provide support. Our superiors have already given me a death order. If I don't provide support, I will be shot. Although I'm not afraid of him, we can't let him talk about us. After all, we are still in his army."

"Of course, if we want to provide support here, we also need a strategy... The 34th Division is probably coming soon, so let's send a battalion of troops over to check out what the situation is like over there."

Ouyang Qing here can only do this...

Because if he doesn't do this, then his 33rd Division will be in danger. After all, he came to this place just to get gilded...

As a result, the gilding has not lasted long, but it has already been killed by this group of people... It is really not worth it.

Therefore, for Ouyang Qing, the most important thing is to preserve his own strength. Only when his strength is preserved, can he have the capital for promotion. If the capital is gone, who will respect him?

Even things like rapid promotion or skyrocketing to the top are just talk.

Zhao Feng was obviously angry. If he didn't go to support him, then Zhao Feng would put him under great pressure, which would not be good.

Therefore, Ouyang Qing took a best of both worlds approach. On the one hand, he sent one of his infantry battalions to provide support. On the other hand, he also had to wait for the support of the 34th Division of the Central Army.

"Also...make sure everyone is ready for me. Make sure all the cannons are ready for battle at all times."

"At the same time, all troops must defend against the Japanese and see what the situation is. If they find any traces of our soldiers, they will definitely send troops to attack us."

Ouyang Qing is still relatively cautious now. After all, his own troops cannot be reduced at all.

If there is a little less, it will definitely not be good for you.

"Yes....Commander....I understand."

......

Zhang Tianyi, the commander of the 34th Division of the Central Army, was also in a car, and one of his own regiment commanders hurriedly ran to Zhang Tianyi's side.

"Commander...Commander, we are still more than ten miles ahead. The sound of gunfire is so loud. I guess the Japanese are still bombing Song County."

"Just listening to the scale, it seems quite large."

The commander of the 34th Division, Zhang Tianyi, also nodded. He knew that these little devils were not easy to deal with. After all, he had fought with them before.

Know their strengths.

"The 32nd Division isn't doing so well. With the Japs' heavy fire, they won't be able to hold out for long."

"I estimate that they may only have about half of their people left. The Japanese attack was too fierce. At that time, we also fought with the 56th Division on other battlefields... and suffered heavy losses. Although the 32nd Division is better equipped than us, there are still other gaps between them and the Japanese infantry division."

"What's more, this time the Japanese not only eliminated one of their own infantry divisions, but also sent two puppet army divisions. This is not a small number."

"Even if we charge, we can still take down Song County."
