    "Call the positions in the rear and ask them what's going on." Setsuzo Yazaki said loudly.

    "I called, but they didn't respond." The staff officer replied.

    Hearing this, Yazaki Setuzo was stunned.  There was no response, indicating that the position might have really fallen. Of course, if you were lucky, it might just be that the phone line was cut off.  But this possibility is obviously relatively small. After all, if the position still exists, the enemy cannot attack them from behind so blatantly.

    "Organize the troops immediately and start a counterattack on the rear positions. We need to retake the rear positions, otherwise there will be no way back." Yazaki Setzo said loudly.

    The staff officer said: "But where do we still have the troops to deploy?"

    "I don't care about this, mobilize our troops immediately, otherwise we will not even have the final escape route." Yazaki Setsuzou said loudly.

    How could two squadrons, with more than 500 people, occupy their positions in less than half an hour?

    "Yes! Captain." The staff officer said loudly, and then he bit the bullet and began to mobilize troops from other places.

    More than ten minutes later, they finally mobilized more than 500 soldiers from various positions.  At this time, most of these soldiers were disgraced. Under the joint fierce attack of the Fourth Division and the Eighth Route Army, every soldier looked a little embarrassed.

    "Immediately start going to the rear to support the operation, and find a way to regain our lost rear positions, at least one of them, otherwise, we will all die here." Yazaki Setuzo ordered loudly.

    The troops of the two squadrons immediately began to advance toward the rear.

    But they immediately encountered the two infantry battalions attacking the rear of the Japanese army. If they wanted to seize the position behind them, the first thing they had to pass was the two infantry battalions in front of them.

    When the two infantry battalions saw the Japanese troops rushing over, they were not in a hurry. Instead, they directly faced the Japanese troops in the woods and began to block them.  hinder their attack.

    The two infantry battalions combined had six to seven hundred people. Although the number was not large, it was enough to cause a lot of trouble to the Japanese army.

    The most important thing is that even if the Japanese army breaks through their defense line, there are still positions stationed by the most elite guard battalions in front of them.  That was a line of defense that the Japanese army could never break through.

    Yazaki Setzo began to send a distress telegram to the 114th Division, because he believed that it would be difficult to escape just by relying on their strength.  The back road was cut off too quickly, which was beyond Yazaki Setuzo's expectations.

    But after receiving the telegram asking for help, Suematsu Shigeshi, the commander of the 114th Division, fell into thinking.

    He realized that if they returned to the defense at this time to support the besieged 115th Regiment, they would not be able to play any role, and more people would probably be involved.

    Because the enemy is backed by Xiongfeng Ridge, he can attack if he advances and defend if he retreats.  Even if they kill the enemy with a large army, they can only repel the enemy, but their main force is entangled again. When the time comes, they will not be able to retreat so easily.

    ¡°A strong man cuts off his wrist!¡± Shigeshi Suematsu thought, and replied a telegram to Yazaki Setuzo, asking them to break out of the encirclement on their own, while the main force would provide them with a certain amount of cover on their retreat.

    After seeing the telegram sent to him by the division commander Suematsu Shigeshi, Yazaki Setuzo realized that they had become abandoned children to a certain extent.  Suematsu Shigeshi obviously didn't want to be entangled with this enemy anymore, so he gave up rescuing them.

    As for the so-called providing them with a certain amount of cover on the way to retreat.  Suematsu Shigeshi may really provide this cover, but the premise is that the 115th Wing can still break through the encirclement.  But the current situation is that they have been heavily surrounded and even their retreat has been cut off.

    And based on the ferocity of the enemy's attack, it was obvious that he planned to annihilate them all, not just defeat them.

    "All soldiers are ordered to fight to the end. When the enemy's offensive stops in the middle of the night, we will begin to break out." Yazaki Setzo gave the order loudly.

    The enemy's attack was fierce, but Setuzo Yazaki knew that the opponent was also a human being, and this fierce attack could not continue forever.  When the enemy was very tired in the latter half of the night, it was their chance to break out.

    The fierce battle between the two sides lasted until about one o'clock in the morning, and then they finally stopped for a while.

    Xia Yang began to rearrange the offensive forces according to the degree of resistance of the Japanese army.  At the same time, more troops were also deployed to the rear positions.??Defense, completely cutting off the Japanese army's retreat.

    The Japanese army¡¯s previous assaults on the rear basically ended in failure.  There were only 500 of them. In fact, even the temporary defense line formed by two infantry battalions failed to break through and they were isolated behind the woods.

    Xia Yang mobilized troops and generals to consolidate the defensive front, and the Japanese army was not idle either.

    It¡¯s just that they are preparing to break out of the encirclement, instead of sitting here and waiting for Xia Yang and the Eighth Route Army troops to annihilate them all here.

    At this time, the Japanese casualties had exceeded one-fifth. In the previous fierce battle, they had really lost a lot of troops.  At this rate of casualties, they would all die here within three days at most.

    "Each brigade and squadron must cooperate closely to prevent any omissions. This is our only chance. If we can't break out tonight, you will all die here." Yazaki Setzo said to his soldiers.

    "Where is the division commander, won't you send reinforcements to us?" a soldier asked loudly.

    Yazaki Setuzo glanced at the soldier, and then said: "Your Excellency, the division commander, will arrange supporting troops for us on our way to retreat, provided that we can retreat."

    At this time, their troops had less than two thousand people left.  These are the soldiers who have followed Yazaki Setsan for several years. Naturally, he does not want to see these soldiers under him die in this inhospitable place.

    "I will take you back." Yazaki Setzo looked at the soldiers and said firmly.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
