In order to capture Changsha as soon as possible, the Japanese dispatched several ground troops and attacked the defense line. When they arrived at the back, they dispatched bombers. However, the defense there was very good, and in order to block the Japanese attack, they fought very fiercely.

In the next few days, the Japanese were all defensive positions for fierce attacks, which brought great pressure to this side. Li Zongren had not had a good sleep these days and kept mobilizing troops to the front line to fight for consumption with the Japanese.

"Commander, if this continues, our defense line will be very dangerous. There are three divisions behind the Japanese. If they dispatch two more divisions, our defense line will be dangerous.

I guess the Japanese attacked fiercely these days in the hope of evacuating the troops around us. In this way, when they join the division behind us, our front line may not be able to block it," Xue Yue said to Li Zongren.

"I know, but do you have any other way? Five divisions attack our positions. There are Japanese planes in the sky. Our soldiers on the front line are also very hard to fight. Now we cannot establish a third line of defense.

If a third line of defense is established, the morale of the troops in front of us will be shaken. Now we have no defense line behind, just telling the soldiers in front that we have no way out and can only fight against the Japanese." Li Zongren sat there, nodded and said.

"Yes, I know this, but what should we do if the two divisions behind attacked us?" Xue Yue looked at Li Zongren and asked.

"Stop it, even if you can't stop it, you have to stop it. We still have an army that can be mobilized. If the two divisions of the Japanese move, our army will also move. Just fight with the Japanese there, and there is no other way.

On Jiangxi, our troops fought very well and successfully stopped the Japanese troops from attacking, but they were restraining the Japanese troops. They would not attack with all their strength, we just need to defend this attack group.

The same goes for Guangdong. We have enough troops there, so we are not afraid of them attacking. Besides, they are still far from our side. If we really break through our defense line, we will have time and troops to stop them. The only thing that threatens us is the attack group in front of us," Li Zongren said.

"Yes. But in the past three days, our casualties have exceeded 00,000. Although the battle report shows that we have killed more than 40,000 Japanese soldiers, we still know how many of them are actually there. It would be good if half of them are available. Next, the Japanese may launch a more fierce attack," Xue Yue said to Li Zongren.

"If you have any good suggestions, just say it directly." Li Zongren looked at Xue Yue and said.

"Order Hu Bin's troops to start breaking through, breaking through the north, and restraining the three divisions behind the Japanese," Xue Yue said, staring at Li Zongren.

"Order him to break through" Li Zongren heard it and stood up.

"Yes, order him to break through. Once he breaks through, if the Japanese know that he is Hu Bin, they will definitely chase him and fight. Even if the Japanese fail to break through, the Japanese will not come. At least two divisions will be placed there. In this case, our pressure will be reduced. The only way to prevent the Japanese from coming so much is this." Xue Yue stood behind Li Zongren and tried to convince Li Zongren.

"But will he listen to us? I heard that Director Zhou from Chongqing has gone to the commander's residence to protest several times. He asked us to save Hu Bin," Li Zongren said to Xue Yue.

"If he disagrees, I think we can announce to the public that the commander of the new 99th Division is Hu Bin, and now he is surrounded. I think the Japanese will be interested," Xue Yue said, and Li Zongren heard it and looked at Xue Yue.

"I know. Doing this is unfair to Hu Bin, but for Changsha and for the overall situation of our War of Resistance, the necessary sacrifices are still needed," Xue Yue said to Li Zongren.

"This is not unfair, it is to kill Hu Bin. I want to ask, if Hu Bin is not dead, can you still have a safe sleep?" Li Zongren looked at Xue Yue and asked.

"This, I think, under such circumstances, there is little hope for him to survive," Xue Yue heard it and looked at Li Zongren and said.

"No, I think on the contrary, Hu Bin has a great hope of survival. Hu Bin can get into the Japanese command center. You think he can't escape the Japanese encirclement. If Hu Bin wants to live, I guess the Japanese attack will not kill him. You have thought it clear." Li Zongren shook his head and looked at Xue Yue and said.

"This, this, what should I do if we come here now, our troops may not be able to hold on for a few days. The Japanese attacks were too fierce." Xue Yue said to Li Zongren.

"However, what you said is very careful, but it depends on how you do it. If we directly reveal it, then Hu Bin will definitely hate us, but if it is found by the Japanese troops, it will be different. If Hu Bin hates us, it shouldn't be." Li Zongren said with a smile.

"What do you mean" Xue Yue originally thought that Li Zongren did not agree with his plan, but he did not expect that when Li Zongren was about to give up, he proposed a better solution.

"That's right, there must be spies from the Japanese in Changsha now. If we arrange for someone to reveal it inadvertently, I think the Japanese side will definitely know it, but we don't know who revealed it at all. What do you think," Li Zongren said with a smile.

"Okay, I think the commander is wise." Xue Yue heard this and gave Li Zongren a thumbs up.

"However, I still don't want to take this step. Let's see if Hu Bin will break through. If he breaks through, there is no need for us to do this." Li Zongren said with his hands behind his back and looking at the map.

Soon, Hu Bin received a telegram from Li Zongren.

"Damn, now I want to attract firepower, what have you done? I am stupid. I will break through under the siege of three divisions, and I'm looking for death." After Hu Bin saw the telegram, his first reaction was to curse.

"Then how should we reply to this order?" Li Tianxing asked with a smile.

"Tell him that we will break through, we will definitely break through, and we are preparing now," Hu Bin said.

"Okay, I'll go back now." Li Tianxing smiled and was about to walk back.

"Wait, wait, it's not right, it's not right." Hu Bin suddenly felt something was wrong and immediately stopped Li Tianxing.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Li Tianxing asked.

"I don't know yet, wait a moment, why do I feel that there is something wrong with this telegram? It seems like a trap." Hu Bin took the telegram from Li Tianxing and looked carefully.

"No problem. We are surrounded. They want us to break through and attract firepower. Why is there any problem?" Li Tianxing said.

"You see clearly. He said he was breaking north and breaking north. Made, the direction of breaking north was designated for me. Isn't it because he went north to seek death?" After Hu Bin looked at the telegram again, he immediately found the location of the problem.

Li Zongren actually pointed out the direction he wanted to break through. The reason why Hu Bin ignored this matter was because the direction Hu Bin chose to break through was to go north, so he took what Li Zongren said for granted.

But if you think about it carefully, it is not right. The goal of breaking through was the Japanese logistics supply warehouse, and Li Zongren asked him to break through to help him attract the Japanese firepower.

"Yes, how did he know where we are going to break through?" Li Tianxing also began to think about it at this time.

"Damn it, the second line of defense is almost impossible to stop it, and the three divisions in front of us will definitely send troops there. In order not to let the Japanese here go to reinforce, they asked us to lead the Japanese in the opposite direction. It's a good idea, and they just ignore our lives and death." Hu Bin said it and was already gritting his teeth.

"What, we exchange our sacrifice for their troops to defend, this, this," Li Tianxing was stunned when he heard Hu Bin say this.

"Although we were given up once, we didn't expect that they would be even more ruthless. OK, I have a genitals. If I don't die this time, I will feel better if you have any more feelings." Hu Bin started to curse.

"What should I do now?" Li Tianxing asked.

"Reply to the telegram, we will break through and break through as soon as possible. Please rest assured, Commander Li," Hu Bin said fiercely.

"Ah" Li Tianxing still looked at Hu Bin in confusion.

"Just go back like this. If we don't agree to him, hum, maybe there are still tricks waiting for us. Promise him and break through as soon as possible. Starting tomorrow, we will arrange for our small troops to break through to the south." Hu Bin said.

"Breakthrough in the south makes the Japanese think we want to break out in Changsha," Li Tianxing said.

"Yes, in this way they will strengthen the defense in the south, and they will ignore the defense in the north. Our opportunity will come," Hu Bin nodded and said.

"Okay, I'll go back. When we break out, we will go back to Yan'an directly. I won't fight here anymore. It's annoying. I can't kill the Japanese well, and I'll stab us in the back." Li Tianxing nodded and went back to the telegram.

After seeing the telegram from Hu Bin, Li Zongren smiled and said nothing.

"Commander, do you think Hu Bin will break out?" Xue Yue said to Li Zongren.

"Yes, but it's not going to break north, but to break south of us. Ha, it doesn't matter. If the Japanese know that they want to break through to us, they will strengthen their defense and can also restrain the Japanese.

OK, let's take a look. If the Japanese dispatched two divisions to reinforce, they would give Hu Bin the death order to break north." Li Zongren smiled and said proudly. To be continued.
