    Heze. Frontline!

    After several hours of galloping, Sangmu Chongming finally arrived at the Heze front line at 4:30 in the morning!

    After listening to the reports from the few remaining assistant officers on the front line, Sangmu Chongming's face suddenly fell!

    Although he had learned about the losses of the frontline troops before coming, he was still shocked when he saw the horror of the frontline troops.

    In just two days, the Nagano Brigade lost more than a thousand troops, and a third of its artillery was knocked out. Counting the headquarters that was accidentally injured by one of its own people, this loss really far exceeded that of Kuwaki Takaaki.  expected.

    The most important thing is that with such huge losses, they didn¡¯t even take down a line of defense at the east gate of Heze, which is a bit unforgivable.

    Fortunately, he brought a lot of reinforcements this time, including a large group of tanks!

    After listening to the report from the frontline officers, it was already getting slightly brighter. Sangmu Chongming immediately asked the officers who had been working hard all night to go back and take a nap. After dawn, the troops continued to attack!

    Eight o'clock in the morning. Heze East Gate!

    Unlike Xuzhou City in the south and Jining City in the northeast, although Heze has a long history, it is not a battleground for military strategists, so it has rarely experienced wars for more than a thousand years.

    However, since the Anti-Japanese War broke out, the smoke here has begun to thicken. The most direct feeling of the people is that there are more troops stationed here.

    During the rule of the Nationalist Army, Heze City originally had only one security brigade of less than 3,000 people. This was the garrison force of Heze City and several surrounding counties during the Nationalist Government. It was not much, and it could barely maintain a security brigade.  Local security, even larger bands of bandits can run rampant here.

    After the Japanese army captured Heze, the garrison here increased a lot. In addition to a reinforced regiment, there were also many technical arms and puppet troops. The total number was six to seven thousand people, which can be regarded as a relatively strong conventional force.

    However, after Li Guoyao's troops captured Heze, the garrison soared to 156,000. At its peak, the garrison here was as high as 25,000.

    Later, Li Guoyao's troops withdrew from Heze, and the 57th Army stationed more troops.

    But as more and more troops were stationed in Heze and its surrounding areas, the war spread to this originally peaceful little place.

    Since September last year, the fighting around Heze City has been uninterrupted.

    A few days ago, the garrison in the city suddenly announced that the Japs would attack Heze City on a large scale. With tens of thousands of people coming this time, Heze City would soon turn into a battlefield. Therefore, the garrison chief asked the people in the city to evacuate the city immediately.

    Naturally, the common people will not turn a deaf ear to the words of the garrison chief. This is not the first time this has happened in the past year.

    The grass on the graves of those who did not cooperate with the troops was now two or three feet high. So when they heard that they were going to evacuate the city, the people took action overnight.

    ??????????????????????????????? Although they have withdrawn, no one has gone far. After all, they have family property in Heze City. Who can rest assured if they leave like this?

    What reassured everyone was that shortly after they evacuated Heze City, the Japanese invaders arrived.

    ??Then the sound of firefights and explosions outside the city became the main theme of Heze. The sound of gunfire from the direction of the city continued. This sound has been going on for two or three days and has not stopped. When will the Japanese devils be able to withdraw?

    This question is not only what the common people want to know, but also the answer that Brigadier Wan stationed at the East Gate wants to know!

    The continuous attacks by the Japanese army not only caused heavy casualties to the 333 Brigade, but also made the defenders extremely exhausted.

    Thinking about it, you can understand that their unit has been fighting the Japanese army for seven or eight days since a week ago. During this period, the soldiers have not been able to eat well or sleep well, and they have to endure huge pressure. It is really not easy.

    Last night, tens of thousands of brigade commanders counted casualties. His 333rd Brigade currently has less than 1,500 people left to fight. If the fight continues like this, it is very likely that all 333rd Brigade will be surrendered here.

    But he also knew that there was nothing he could do about it. The enemy had no choice but to fight to the death.

    "Besides, it's too late to retreat now. The two divisions of the Little Devils have already surrounded Heze City. There is no hope of breaking out, so they can only wait for help.

    Fortunately, the brothers all know that the master is still in the city and will be with him even if he dies, so the morale of the troops is pretty good.

    "Ring ring ring"

    The phone at the command post rang suddenly. Brigadier Wan, who was drinking fried dough, immediately grabbed it and said:?: "East Gate Command Post, I am Wan Qingbo, that one!"

    "Qingbo, this is Lao Chang!" came the honest voice of the old man on the phone.

    "Hello, Master!"

    "Qingbo, let me tell you some good news. Last night, the headquarters and Commander Li began to counterattack. The 113th Division defeated the Shanting defenders in one fell swoop and captured Shanting County! The main force of the Japanese 32nd Division counterattacked Shanting, but was  The 113th Division was held up in Shanting. The main force of Commander Li's command promptly dispatched troops to Xiong'er Mountain and had already reached the gates of Zaozhuang City. The Japanese army was in a very bad situation on the east bank of Weishan Lake."

    "Hahaha, that's great! As long as Commander Li and the others capture Zaozhuang City and move north to attack the Japanese troops on the Shanting front line, the war situation on the east bank of Weishan Lake will completely collapse. By then, the main force of the theater headquarters will cross Weishan Lake  We can reach southwestern Shandong and our army will be saved!" Brigadier Wan said loudly.

    "Well, so you guys have to hold on. If it doesn't work, just call the division headquarters. For now, there are still reinforcements!" Commander Chang said.

    "Okay, if you can't hold on any longer, ask the teacher for help, but I can still hold on now!"

    "Well, okay, I guess the Japs are going to attack again, why don't you be prepared!"

    "Okay, hang up then!"

    ?¡­

    After hanging up the phone, Brigadier Wan felt a little excited!

    In fact, when the troops withdrew to Heze City, he was opposed in his heart, because Heze was a dead end at this time. Once they withdrew into the city, it would be almost impossible to break out. The little devils from the two divisions outside the city were not just for show.  of.

    ¡°But this matter was decided by Commander Chang and Commander Li, and the theater commander also agreed. What opinion could he, a young brigade commander, have?

    As a relatively cautious commander, Brigadier Wan was still a little worried. After all, this was a gamble with the lives of tens of thousands of people in the 111th Division. Once the bet was lost, it would be doomed.

    Fortunately, at present, they have not lost yet, and there is even a possibility of a comeback.

    At the moment, in order to boost morale, Brigadier Wan immediately ordered people to convey the news to the front-line positions, telling all front-line soldiers that they were not waiting to die, and that there was still hope for everything.

    After receiving the news from the brigade headquarters, the national soldiers on the front line let out loud cheers, the sound was deafening!

    At this time, at the 110th Division headquarters a few kilometers away from the garrison position, Sangmu Chongming, who had just gotten up and was having breakfast, suddenly heard strange noises coming from the garrison position in the distance. He immediately came to the observation point and looked across the way through the telescope.  The situation on the ground.

    But he found that the man on the opposite side was actually cheering for something, as if he was celebrating something. Out of anger, Sangmu Chongming immediately ordered the artillery regiment to immediately shell the opposing garrison position.

    At the same time, under the order of Sang Mu Chongming, an infantry brigade was mobilized, and he wanted to personally command the siege!
