    The night is already deep!

    The sound of cannons was still rumbling outside the city, and the gunfire did not stop at all. On the contrary, it became more intense than during the day.

    In the Guide City Defense Headquarters, Li Guoyao was lying on the map analyzing the battle situation.

    A huge map was laid flat on the desk, with two rulers and a set square next to it. Li Guoyao held a sharpened pencil in his hand and kept drawing on the map.

    "Reporting to the military seat, a hole was opened in the east gate wall by the Japanese army, and hundreds of Japanese soldiers rushed in through the gap." The combat staff reported loudly.

    Li Guoyao raised his head and said: "Tell Zhou Jinlong and Hu Zhiguo that I have handed over the East Gate position to them. If a Japanese soldier rushes into the city, let them come to see you!"

    "yes!"

    "Reporting to the military, a large number of Japanese soldiers were found outside Bozhou City, with a strength of no less than 10,000!"

    Li Guoyao raised his head and asked, "Have you figured out the enemy's number?"

    ¡°Report, it¡¯s the Japanese Tenth Division!¡±

    Li Guoyao frowned and said, "It's from the Isoya Corruption Agency. I didn't expect it to happen so quickly!"

    "Military seat, there are only more than 2,000 defenders in Bozhou City, and the Japanese army is conservatively estimated to be more than 10,000, so Brigadier Wen requests the military headquarters for immediate reinforcements!" the combat staff said in a deep voice.

    Li Guoyao did not answer the words of the combat staff, but asked: "How is the situation in Guoyang?"

    "The situation is not good. The Japs have been attacking the city for a day today. The outer positions of Woyang City have been occupied by the Japanese army, and some Japs soldiers have entered the city. Now the two sides are fighting for it in the city!"

    After being silent for a few seconds, Li Guoyao said immediately: "Immediately send a report to Deputy Commander Xu, ordering them to withdraw from Guoyang immediately, rush the entire army to Bozhou, and then let them stick to Bozhou. They must not retreat even half a step without my order!"

    "yes!"

    "Is there any news from Liang Chenghu?" Li Guoyao asked again.

    "not yet!"

    "Oh, I see!"

    ?¡­Dividing line¡­Dividing line¡­

    By the way, just when Li Guoyao was in a state of despair, Liang Chenghu, Zhang Shaolin and others were sulking in Liuhe Town!

    They arrived at Liuhe Town at around 8 p.m., and the 24th and 40th Divisions of the Eighth Army were indeed stationed in Liuhe Town. However, when they requested to meet with the commanders of these two divisions under orders from the theater commander,  But he was rejected at that time. The reason given by the other party was that the teacher was not here.

    Since the division commander was not here, Liang Chenghu and others proposed to meet the deputy division commander. However, the answer was still the same. The deputy division commander was not here. If you have anything to do, wait until the division commander Tianliang comes back to talk about it.

    Liang Chenghu and others are well aware of the battle situation on the Guide front line, and every minute and every second cannot be delayed. Every minute they waste here, no one knows how many brothers are killed on the front line.

    Although Liang Chenghu dislikes Li Guoyao very much, he is only targeting Li Guoyao himself. In essence, he is still a soldier with a professional background, and he belongs to the type of people with ideals and ambitions. For the Eighth Army in front of him, these eyes are on his forehead.  The guy was very dissatisfied.

    In the temporary barracks of the Eighth Army, Liang Chenghu held a telegram and remained silent for a long time. His frown showed that he was in a very unhappy mood at this time.

    The main officers of the 24th Division and the 40th Division avoided seeing him, which made him very passive and very angry. Then he sent a telegram in his own name to his old commander, hoping to get advice.

    However, the old officer's answer made him feel cold. The old officer directly pointed out that the Eighth Army was a direct lineage of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek. This could be seen from the fact that the Eighth Army deserted twice and Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek did not punish them severely.  come out, so no matter what the reason is at this time, it is best for them not to be impulsive.

    At the same time, the old commander also pointed out that Li Guoyao of the 61st Army has been too famous in the past six months. Chairman Chiang may not have taken this opportunity to weaken the 61st Army.

    So what they should do most at the moment is to hide at the front line of Liuhe Town and wait and see what happens. If they win the battle in Guide City, they will go back. They said they have been persuading the 24th Division and the 40th Division to go south. If they lose, they may lose the 61st Division.  The army was wiped out and he could save his life.

    From a rational analysis, the old officer¡¯s advice is very pertinent and is a success story.

    "But Liang Chenghu felt extremely uncomfortable. Although doing so was beneficial to him personally, it was a great disadvantage to the country and the nation.

    The importance of returning to morality is self-evident. Now the 61st Army is risking the whole army to be annihilated to block this hole, creating a new situation for Xue Yue's troops.?The opportunity to completely annihilate the Doihara Division, if Guide is lost, all previous efforts will be wasted, and the bloodshed and sacrifice of hundreds of thousands of soldiers will be in vain.

    It would be such a selfish act to just sit back and watch at this time. Even if you save your life afterwards, you would have no shame in going back to meet your former colleagues and brothers.

    At the same time, Liang Chenghu thought of Li Guoyao. Although he disliked Li Guoyao's flamboyant character, he had to admire his responsibility.

    This battle actually had nothing to do with the 61st Army from the beginning. It was Li Guoyao who realized that the situation in Mengcheng was not good, and realized that the hundreds of thousands of national troops on the Xuzhou front line were in danger of being dumped by the Japanese army, so he took the initiative to go north to reinforce Mengcheng.  Then came the week-long battle to defend the city.

    The same goes for the Guide Defense War. Li Guoyao realized early that the Eighth Army might be fleeing, so he rushed to Guide with their newly formed 100th Brigade and more than 10,000 additional troops to plug this loophole in time.

    "To be honest, whether it is Mengcheng or Guide, what does it have to do with the 61st Army?"

    The 61st Army is part of the combat order of the Third War Zone, while Mengcheng is part of the troops stationed in the Fifth War Zone, and Guide is part of the First War Zone. It is really impossible to fight together.

    But Li Guoyao himself didn't care about this. He didn't care about his honor, whether his troops would be wiped out because of this, or even his own life and death. He appeared in the most critical positions on the battlefield time and time again.

    What is this? This is the true responsibility of an iron-blooded soldier. This is the broad mind of a general.

    "Compared with Li Guoyao, whether it was Huang Jie, the commander of the Eighth Army, or his own old commander, their structure was really bad, and there was no comparability between the two sides.

    After thinking again and again, Liang Chenghu turned his gaze to Zhang Shaolin, who was bald on one side, and asked: "Monk, those bastards are avoiding you, and we can't convey this order. What should we do now?"

    "You are the brigade commander and I am just a captain, you make the decision!" Zhang Shaolin said lightly.

    Liang Chenghu gritted his teeth and said, "If I ask you and me to take down the headquarters of the 24th Division, do you dare?"

    "Why, Deputy Brigadier Liang wants to directly remonstrate with the Eighth Army?"

    "Um!"

    "Then you have to think carefully. After the military remonstrance, your future will be over. What Chairman Chiang hates most is the following crimes. The limelight of the Double Twelve Incident has not passed yet. Even if you have all kinds of reasons, you will still be the same in the end.  He will inevitably be dismissed from his post, and may even go to a military court!" Zhang Shaolin said.

    "I know, but there are things men do and things they don't do. Brothers are working hard on the front line and urgently need reinforcements from these bastards. The army has pinned its hopes on me. I can't let them down." Liang Chenghu said through gritted teeth.

    "Have you decided?"

    "Don't talk nonsense, just tell me whether your kid dares to accompany me to do something big!" Liang Chenghu said in a deep voice.

    "Hahaha, how dare you not do this? To tell you the truth, the military commander asked our special team to come here just because he wanted to use force!"

    Seeing the horror on Liang Chenghu's face, Zhang Shaolin looked at his watch and said, "It's a quarter past eleven. If these idiots don't see us after 12 o'clock, my people will take action!"

    "How come I don't know about this?"

    Zhang Shaolin smiled and said nothing. He believed that even if he didn't say anything about it, Liang Chenghu would soon understand it.

    Sure enough, Liang Chenghu soon sighed and said: "It seems that the military seat has arranged everything. I was a little late-minded just now!"

    "You performed very well this time. I will report the truth to the military when I go back!" Zhang Shaolin said lightly.

    "Monk, if you are so confident that the operation will succeed, you are not afraid that we will be killed?" Liang Chenghu looked at Zhang Shaolin and said.

    However, I saw Zhang Shaolin saying with disdain: "Deputy Brigadier Liang, you underestimate our special team. Not to mention that we are already in the military camp. Even if we are outside the military camp now, as long as Lao Zhang and I  If you are willing, you can seize their headquarters at any time. Does Deputy Brigadier Liang think this place will be more formidable than the Japs¡¯ front army headquarters?¡±

    Liang Chenghu suddenly thought that the troops in front of him followed Li Guoyao on expeditions east and west, repeatedly inflicting heavy losses on the Japanese army. It was really difficult for a mere Eighth Army headquarters to stop them.

    But when he thought that once this happened, Liang Chenghu would be the one to take the blame, Liang Chenghu suddenly felt mixed emotions in his heart.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
