Usa Mirō said: "I can't think of that humble rank. What other tricks can Zhong Yi do?"

"If you can't think of it, just ignore him for now." Okamura Yasuji said, "and still follow the current tactics, steadily and advance step by step towards Jinhua and even Quzhou. As long as you occupy the mountainous areas in western Zhejiang and gain a foothold, the Zhejiang-Jiangxi highway will be completely cut off by us, and Yinjiang will become an isolated city!"

"Hayi." Usa Mirone said with a headshot.

...

Yiwu County.

"Teacher Commander, this is Ochen Town." Kinoshita said.

"Is this Dachen Town?" Iida Xiangjiro looked at the inconspicuous town in front of him with a gloomy expression.

This town has only one or two hundred households at most, with a population of at most five or six hundred people. Moreover, the entire town is empty, so I guess I have gone to escape from the disaster.

But this is not the reason why Iida Yoshiro is unhappy.

What made Iida Shojiro feel unhappy was because ten days ago, the main force of the 1st Cavalry Brigade was surrounded and annihilated by the Chinese army nearby.

A brigade, more than 7,000 people were wiped out!

Because of this failure, his military career almost came to an end.

Fortunately, Okamura Yasuji took the initiative to take responsibility to protect his future.

Kinoshita Yuki knew what Iida Sukiro was thinking, so he advised: "The division commander doesn't have to worry about this. There is a saying in China that losing first does not necessarily mean losing, but losing in the end is really losing!"

"Kishita, you are right. The loser is the one who loses in the end!" Iida Xiangjiro nodded and said, "Jinhua is not far ahead. As long as you occupy Jinhua, you will almost occupy the entire western Zhejiang. The Zhejiang-Jiangxi highway will actually be cut off by the Imperial Army. I have to see when the Chinese army can hide!"

"They have nowhere to hide." Kinoshita Yuki snorted, "Just wait until our Guard Division advances to Jinhua, the Chinese army will have to fight to the decisive battle with me."

"Sodega." Iida Yoshiro nodded happily and said, "However, we still cannot be too anxious. We still need to follow the plan issued by the headquarters, and make steady progress and advance step by step!"

It seems that after suffering that loss, Iida Yoshiro was truly enlightened.

"Hayi." Kinoshita Yukawa paused, "The division commander is clear and clear. Huye also thought that the closer we are to victory, the more we should be cautious. Zhuge was cautious all his life, and it was always right to be cautious."

"Yo Xi." Yoshiro Iida nodded.

...

At the junction of Jinhua County and Yiwu County, there is a village called Jiangyanshan Village. On the right side of Jiangyanshan Village, there is a small hill called Bijiashan.

At this time, Jiangyanshan Village and Bijiashan had become the front lines of war.

The 1st Battalion of the Rong 1st Regiment of the Rong 1st Division was stationed here to block the Japanese army.

Gouwa has now become the squad leader, and with more than 30 brothers in a class, he occupied a small mountain bag not far from Jiangyan Mountain Village, which is the forefront of the entire defense line.

"Brothers, it's time to eat, it's time to eat!"

A civilian was carrying a basket of cornmeal steamed buns and shaking up.

"Snap the time to eat!" Gouwa waved his hand to signal the brothers to have a meal, but he did not move himself.

After a while, the monkey grabbed eight steamed buns with four in one hand, holding one in his mouth, happily returned to the gouwa, and handed the four grabbed with his right hand to the gouwa: "Squad leader, give it."

The gobiao was not polite, so she took it and started chewing it.

Anyway, there is enough steamed buns, so the dog baby is not worried that the monkey will not be full.

While biting the steamed bun, Gouwa said with satisfaction: "Squad leader, it's great to stay in the army. Three meals a day, there are cornmeal steamed buns every meal, and they can be eaten open!"

The goat curled his lips and said nothing.

When he was a soldier, he had to fight to the death, and he sold his life for a few steamed buns.

While speaking, a crisp gunshot suddenly sounded in front of him: "Bang!"

The gouwa suddenly felt excited and looked forward quickly. He saw that the chicken's butt had already jumped up from the guard post three hundred meters in front of the position, running back quickly while roaring.

"The Japanese are here! Squad leader, the Japanese are here!"

Gouwa jumped onto the edge of the trench, then put on a tent and looked forward. Sure enough, he saw about twenty Japanese soldiers who had already opened the sparse scattered line and were rushing towards this side.

"All of them are there, prepare for battle!"

The dogwa suddenly retracted into the trench and howled sharply.

While howling, Dogwa opened Galand's insurance.

After a while, the Japanese army had approached within 300 meters.

"Call me!" Gouwa gave the order, and the three-branched Galand modified fully automatic rifle equipped in the class and a Browning light machine gun were the first to fire.

The Japanese in front fell down two times.

The remaining Japanese quickly fell to the ground, raised their guns and began to fight back.

After a while, the Japanese infantry support firepower caught up, and they set up mortars and grenade launchers from four hundred meters away, and then bombarded Gouwa's defensive positions.

A few minutes later, two Japanese fighters also roared, first dropping four 25kg aviation bombs, and then diving and strafing.

The killing effect of artillery attack and bombing is still very considerable.

In just over a dozen minutes, Gouwa's class lost half of its staff.

Gouwa's right arm was also scratched by shrapnel and was covered with color.

But even so, Gouwa never ordered a retreat.

After the bombing was over, the Japanese began a second wave of attacks. The twenty Japanese who were still lying on the ground jumped up again and rushed over with a bayonet-like 38-Daogai with a bayonet.

"Fight, fight me!" Gouwa shook off the sand and soil on his body, stood up from the trenches again, and raised his gun to shoot.

With a bang, the Japanese flag bearer who rushed in the front fell to the ground. Gouwa's shot just now directly hit the Japanese flag bearer's face, and his whole face exploded.

Less than twenty brothers in the class also opened fire, and the dense firepower was poured out.

Less than a moment of fire exchange, more than 20 Japanese on the opposite side fell into pools of blood. Several of them might not die. At this moment, they could only lie on the ground and pretend to be dead, otherwise they would immediately become living targets.

The battle ended soon, and the defense of Gouwa and his class was still there.

Almost as soon as the gunfire stopped, dozens of civilians rushed up.

Most of these civilians are stretcher teams responsible for carrying the injured injured down.

Only two civilians were transported and carried a basket of ammunition.

The basket contained ammunition. Gouwa took eight twenty-round magazines from the basket, first installed one on the Galand rifle, and then put all the remaining seven magazines into the bag.

After thinking about it, Gouwa took two grenades from the basket again.

After he had replenished himself, Gouwa lowered his voice and shouted: "Everything is available, hurry up and replenish the ammunition!"

Less than twenty soldiers left in the class came forward one after another and took their own ammunition supplies from the basket.
Chapter completed!
