Chapter 88 The Longest Night (Four)

The position of Tiger Gou is dangerous, and although the Japanese army in the direction of Sengguanfeng and Majiagou are also actively attacking, they do not have the fierceness of the Japanese army in Tiger Gou! However, even the Japanese army that is desperate, under the dense firepower shooting like a storm, they can only have a hatred on the battlefield.

Anyone can see that the Japanese army in the Majiagou side ridge was restraining the feint attack. The tight war in the Tiger Gowou made Zhang Xuewu feel a little relieved. If the Japanese army in the Majiagou side ridge carried out fierce attacks at all costs, his counterattack plan in front of the formation would probably be vain.

In the command center of the 10th Division, Hirose Shousuke, with a pale face, threw the phone hard on the table, unbuttoned his neck and walked around the table for a few times. The staff in the tent knew that the division commander had just received a call from the commander of Matsuki Naoki Division of the 14th Division, and it is unknown why he was so angry.

Soon, Matsube and Ichiro, who were commanding the attack on the front line, were attracted by Hirose Shousuke. Hirose Shousuke retreated to everyone and said with a ferocious look: "Matsuki, this bastard, he failed to attack by himself, and actually blamed us for his responsibility? Say we are not able to cooperate properly? Baguyalu! This incompetent and shameless old bastard actually wants to report to Commander Muto?"

Yuanbu and Ichiro frowned slightly and said, "Secretary Commander, I believe that Matsuki Naoki should be helping attack Tiger Gully at this moment. The loss of a brigade commander is so great that even Commander Muto cannot bear. The attack in the direction of Tiger Gully has never stopped. Obviously, the 14th Division has suffered an unprecedented heavy blow. Otherwise, Matsuki Naoki would not be so arrogant. I think this is probably our opportunity?"

"Where is the opportunity?" Hirose Shousuke frowned. He did not see any chance here. The terrain of the Majiagou side ridge position is far more unfavorable than that of Tiger Gou. The offensive troops can only attack the main position of the Chinese defenders along the three ridges. Compared with the glory of the capture of Seungto, it seems that the casualties of the troops are more important. Hirose Shousuke is not the Honbu and Ichiro who are dedicated to the career of the officialdom. He cares more about the evaluation of the military headquarters after the war. He does not want to be considered an incompetent general by the military headquarters because of the excessive casualties.

Yuanbu and Ichiro looked at the side ridge of Majiagou on the sand table and said, "Our army has been attacking continuously for several hours, and the local defense system and firepower system have been almost clear. The 14th Division is so impatient that the new first division of the defender Chinese army can still be continuously invested in counterattacks. I concluded that they must have drawn troops from the Majiagou defense line, so our army should put in forces and carry out continuous assaults in one go, and it is expected to break through the enemy in front of us."

Hirose Shusuke hesitated and said, "It's already two o'clock in the morning. Are you sure to break the Chinese army's defense line before dawn? The troops' continuous attack ability has reached its limit. It is very dangerous to carry out a total attack under very fatigued conditions."

Yuanbu and Ichirouchu's angry legs were shaking and said, "Please rest assured, Commander of the Division! The subordinates will definitely defeat the enemy's positions before dawn."

Hirose Shousuke nodded and said, "Then let it go!"

Looking at the back of Yamabe and Ichiro leaving, Hirose Shousuke's gaze was a little complicated! Then Hirose Shousuke turned his gaze back to the sand table. As for the enemy's abandonment of half of the city's use of favorable terrain to support the triangular defense system, Hirose Shousuke was surprised, and admired the other party's courage more! Faced with the advantages of the Imperial Army and the strength to defend Half of the city, this defense model has not yet appeared in Hirose Shousuke's memory.

After a burst of rapid artillery fire, Zhang Xuewu's eyes turned toward the Majiagou side ridge. About half an hour later, Zhao Xinyu's phone call reached the division headquarters. The Japanese army even braved their own artillery fire to attack the entire line of Majiagou side ridge. The ridges and valleys were full of people from all over the mountains and fields. Zhao Xinyu asked the division artillery regiment to give artillery to all the secret positions on the front of the Majiagou side ridge position, and asked to use a prepared battalion and a mechanized company directly under the division headquarters to attack the left wing of the Japanese attacking troops to reduce the pressure on the main position.

Zhang Xuewu stood in front of the map and took a deep breath. Can his counterattack plan be implemented? If the 10th Japanese Division attacked the Majiagou side ridge position, can Zhao Xinyu's regiment be defended?

It is better to cut off one of his fingers than to hurt his ten fingers. Zhang Xuewu took a deep breath and defended Chengde to give effective strikes to the Japanese army's livelihood. So he said to the confidential adviser beside him: "Tell the third regiment commander that the counterattack plan will be rejected and the artillery regiment can provide firepower strikes. Only this time, guard the Majiagou side ridge position with the existing force at all costs. It is allowed to give up the first line of defense at the necessary moment! At 8 o'clock tomorrow, I will send reinforcements to help him restore his position."

After receiving the order, Zhao Xinyu shook his hand slightly and his face pale, he handed the order to Li Xinkai, the chief of staff who came to supervise the battle. After seeing the order, Li Xinkai hesitated and said, "Do you want me to talk to the Master again? The Master may not understand the situation and determination of the Japanese army's attack."

Zhao Xinyu shook his head and said, "Forget it! You are here to supervise the battle. What's the matter with speaking for me? The master has a tactical arrangement for the master. I obey the order. If you join the master, you should take charge of the command for me! There are still five or six hours left. If I don't go up, I'm afraid my brothers will not be able to withstand it. Sooner or later, we will carry guns and eat food. If we don't die, we will be lucky. If we don't die in internal friction, we will die bravely in fighting against the Japanese pirates, why can't we erect a monument or something in the future?"

Li Xinkai nodded and said, "The difficulty of having a master seat is that there are more than 100,000 troops are defeated like a mountain. If there is no pillar of the nation, the spirit of this country will be over. This is a lifeless task. Since we are here, we have to let Japan see if our Northeast men are hard enough. Don't bully them in person if they catch the Northeast Army. I used to be the Northeast Army!"

Then please take the seat. If I really can't come back, you will have to take more care of the other side of Peking. Li Xin opened his nose and patted Zhao Xinyu on the shoulder and said, "You kid are so popular? The King of Hell will accept you!"

The Japanese offensive in the direction of Majiagou side ridge also stimulated the Japanese army in the direction of Laohugou. The 10th Division and the 14th Division launched fierce attacks again and again regardless of casualties as if they were crazy. Even the 28th Brigade of Seng Guanfeng, the Japanese army was in charge of restraining, and the Japanese army launched a back attack along the steep hillside.
