As the commander-in-chief of the Fifth War Zone and the leader of the Guangxi warlords, Li Zongren is very concerned about the result of this Taierzhuang Battle. If he cannot win, his prestige in the country and the military will be greatly affected.

When Li Zongren, who learned that the Japanese stockpiled materials in Yicheng were destroyed by the special operations team, had already assembled the counterattack force, brazenly issued an order to counterattack on the whole line. However, Li Zongren, who was staying in the command room, still did not dare to be careless at all.

Staying at the rear combat command center, he asked and received the battle reports of the front-line troops from time to time. When he learned that the peripheral troops of the 10th Division of the Japanese army were moving closer to the main force of the division, Li Zongren also realized that the Japanese army was intending to shrink the defense line and strengthen its breakthrough strength.

Li Zongren, who was not the first time he was fighting the Japanese army, knew very well that the Japanese army had strong offensive ability and his defensive ability. Although the Japanese army could not get supplies from the rear, the ammunition base carried by the division would not be too small.

Compared with the optimism of other commanders, Li Zongren still said with a serious expression: "It's not too long since I'm happy now. The Japanese gave up their peripheral positions and deliberately concentrated their dispersed forces. Only after dawn will it be the real tough battle.

I ordered all troops not to stop, increase my offensive efforts and encircle the peripheral troops of the 10th Division. If they don’t take advantage of the dawn, they will eliminate more Japanese devils. After dawn, Japanese devils will launch a counterattack, and they will suffer."

Regarding Li Zongren's calmness and calmness, other generals also knew that after dawn, those annoying Japanese fighters would take off again. If Japanese fighters cooperated, they would have no other way to block the 10th Division that broke through, except for bloody battles.

The only way to bite the Japanese and pull each other's front lines closer, so that the Japanese planes dare not fire or drop bombs at will. At present, they only have the advantage of military strength. If they do not seize the opportunity to fight at night, they will be very troublesome after dawn.

As Li Zongren issued another order to strengthen the offensive, the generals of the army responsible for the front line also understood the actual intention of Li Zongren's order. If you really miss such a rare opportunity to win, I am afraid that these generals will feel regretful.

Seeing the hope of victory, I finally had the opportunity to win the Japanese to prove myself. How could they miss it? Even if the strong attack will increase casualties, they could become generals. Didn’t that come from the mountain of blood sea of ​​corpses?

Faced with the strong attacks of the attacking troops, the Japanese troops who were retreating gradually began to suffer disorganized defeat. Isotani Ryosuke, who was contacting the front army for instructions, seemed very anxious to learn about the situation.

Looking at the outer defense line on the map that was constantly broken through by the anti-Japanese troops, Isotani Ryosuke also said angrily: "Baga! What do the commanders of the peripheral troops do for food? How could the Chinese army break through in such a short time?"

"The division commander, the peripheral troops are under great pressure to attack. According to the telegrams sent by each regiment earlier, the Chinese army used a large number of artillery and cavalry units when counterattacking. Many troops who were preparing to retreat were caught off guard."

"Baga! Are the Chinese army crazy?"

"Maybe the commander of the Chinese army hopes to narrow the encirclement as much as possible before dawn. Division commander, should we be prepared to break through? If we wait until dawn, we are afraid that our path to break through will become more difficult than now."

"How to withdraw now? What if the troops are not gathered together and the troops that have not yet joined the division?"

As the commander of the 10th Division, Isotani Ryosuke also knew the benefits of retreating as soon as possible. The problem is that in order to capture Taierzhuang, his troops were scattered very well, and it was very difficult to assemble in a short period of time.

If we give up joining them and each unit breaks through on its own, Risuke Isotani feels that the possibility of each unit breaking through is very small. The worst thing is that the ammunition carried by the peripheral troops is limited, and most of the ammunition reserved by the division is at the command center.

If the rest of the division troops could gather together, relying on the ammunition reserved by the division, Risuke Isotani felt that the chance of breaking through was greatly increased. If the peripheral troops were not waiting for the peripheral troops, it would be difficult to verify the safety of the division command center by relying solely on the alert troops that defended the division.

After thinking for a long time, Risuke Isotani finally gritted his teeth and said, "Send a report to each corps and ask them to draw a group of troops to resist resolutely. The main force of the corps is lightly equipped to move closer to the division. As long as we can come back before dawn, we will have a way to turn the defeat into victory!"

Give such an order to make each regiment select suicide squads to fight to the death. Use the lives of the left-behind troops to exchange for more opportunities for survival. As the commander of the division, Risuke Isotani must also make some choices.

The commanders of the warring sides each made their own moves and launched a fierce confrontation around Taierzhuang. Hu Biao, who successfully captured Yicheng, looked at the gradually brightening sky, but said goodbye to Pang Bingxun at the right time, intending to lead his troops to leave Yicheng.

What made Hu Biao feel a little regretful was that in the battle to attack Yicheng last night, two soldiers in the spy company died and four minor and serious wounded. After learning the news, Hu Biao still planned to take the soldiers' bodies out of the city to cremate, and then take them back to the old camp for burial.

As for the injured soldiers, Hu Biao would also find a way to treat them. Taking advantage of the initiative of the Anti-Japanese War troops, let the four injured soldiers recover as much as possible. After their injuries were slightly healed, then find a way to go.

Hearing that Hu Biao was about to leave, Pang Bingxun said reluctantly: "Brother, won't you stay for a while?"

"Brother, my troops and I are not suitable for seeing the light. We are best at moving in the dark. Besides, we just arrived in the Iron City yesterday and started fighting before we were resting. Our brothers were very tired and we should have a good rest.

If you have any questions, we can contact us via the radio. During this period, I should be active around the island. As for whether I will participate in the battle, it depends on whether I can find a chance to take action. By the way, have you sent a telegram to the war zone?"

Faced with Hu Biao's inquiry, Pang Bingxun slapped his thigh and said, "Ah! I really forgot! I just want to eliminate the Japanese devils, I forgot!"

"Come on the victory now! Today, I'm afraid it will be very lively! My brother will be stationed in the Imperial City next. You must pay attention to the Japanese air strikes, and try to disperse and hide the troops. If you are outside, I will send the corresponding guards and will notify you if there is any situation!"

"Thank you! Since I decided to leave, I won't be able to keep you too much. If you have the chance in the future, we will contact you often!"

"Okay! Zhuzi, take that little box over!"

Hu Biao, who was talking, signaled Tian Tiezhu, who was standing not far away, and took a medicine box he had prepared earlier, and said with a smile: "Brother, this is my little intention. I believe you should need it very much!"

"Is this your gift before you leave?"

When the box was opened and looking at the large number of medicines placed neatly, Pang Bingxun said with bright eyes: "Brother, did you get these medicines? Could it be that you robbed the Japanese rear hospital? These foreign medicines are very difficult to get!"

"I have been wandering behind enemy lines for a long time, so I must have some channels to make money. This drug business is a kind of medicine! I won't charge my brother for these medicines. If I need it in the future, I can send me a telegram and sell it to you."

"Can you get this kind of foreign medicine? These anti-inflammatory drugs are life-saving treasures!"

"As long as you have money, medicines should not be a problem! The premise is that if the amount you want is large, it takes some time to prepare!"

"Okay! I accepted this gift with shamelessness. With these medicines, I carried them to the back and recovered from the wounded old subordinates, and finally saved them. I thanked me for my life-saving grace on behalf of them. I would like to pay for these medicines, and I would like to give you as much as I want!"

Be clear about the anti-inflammatory drugs in the medicine box to treat gunshot wounds, even if there is not much medical reserve in the rear of the war zone. Many times, such valuable drugs are only for use by officers and wounded people, but ordinary wounded people cannot use them at all.

It can be said that as long as there is medicine, he will not worry about selling it at all. This is why Pang Bingxun is so excited and says as much as he wants. But for Hu Biao, he still won’t do a large-scale pharmaceutical business with Pang Bingxun.

He shook his head and smiled bitterly for this, "Brother, I can still provide small batches, but if I have large batches, it will be a bit embarrassing for me. Later, I will use telegram to quote the price and the amount I can provide. If I can eat it, let's contact us again!"

"Okay! I really didn't expect that I have such a channel for getting rich!"

"Make some hard money! After all, there are a bunch of subordinates who want to support you!"

Hu Biao, who was talking about a small business before leaving, quickly took the spy Lian soldier who participated in the war. Looking at Hu Biao and his party's departure, Pang Bingxun's eyes also flashed, knowing that Hu Biao was indeed not simple.

Not only is he good at fighting, but he seems to be doing business is not bad. Through this contact, Pang Bingxun was able to clearly realize that Hu Biao and his troops were probably the ones who followed the command and did not listen to the Xuan Dynasty. No one except Hu Biao could command it.

To put it simply, this powerful force is no different from Hu Biao's private armed forces. If Hu Biao can get a lot of money, his private armed forces will increase rapidly and become an armed force that cannot be ignored.

Earlier, Hu Biao said that he and his subordinates had never received a single military pay from the military headquarters. In Pang Bingxun's opinion, I was afraid that Hu Biao and others would not look down on the military pay from the military headquarters at all. With the abilities of Hu Biao and others, they earned a lot of money from each battle.

"Military throne, this person is afraid he is very ambitious!"

The Chief of Staff, who stood beside Pang Bingxun, suddenly said this, and I think it was obvious that Hu Biao and his party were not simple. It was difficult for someone to develop and grow in this world. But if you have money, you don’t have to worry about no one.

If Hu Biao had enough funds to support more subordinates, those capable veterans in the anti-Japanese war forces would not refuse to join Hu Biao's subordinates to work hard for him. After he grew stronger, who would dare to ignore the existence of such a group of people?

Pang Bingxun and the Chief of Staff could see clearly the methods of Hu Biao's attack on the command center. In addition, Hu Biao's subordinates were mostly versatile, and they could fire artillery and chariots. Who wouldn't like such talents?

Just the dozens of people brought into the city, Hu Biao exerted their combat power stronger than a main group. If Hu Biao had more troops, wouldn’t that mean he was stronger? The most deadly thing was Hu Biao and his team's elusive combat methods.
