Anti-Japanese War: From Becoming Chu Yunfei to Rising

Chapter 56: Zhang Fugui led the team to support, Qian Bojun offered advice and suggestions. (Please read later)
"Boom~!"

"Boom~!"

An entire squadron of Japanese invaders who were trying to outflank them were blown apart in just a moment.

The respective squad leaders and division leaders screamed at the soldiers under their command to disperse quickly.

Pieces of flesh, fragments, dust, and dead branches were scattered everywhere.

Once the bombardment begins, there is no reason to stop.

The shells kept coming one after another.

The order Chu Yunfei gave was to continue the bombardment.

This means that there is no order from Chu Yunfei.

From the moment the mountain artillery battalion opens fire, the shelling will never stop!

"Lao Bian, it's our artillery. It must be the support called by the regiment commander!"

Bian Fucheng laughed loudly, raised the ghost-head sword in his hand and chopped down a Japanese soldier who was not aware of the danger in life and death.

"Thank you, damn mountain artillery battalion!"

The rich man is tall and strong.

At this time, his body was covered in sweat and his muscles were bulging.

The scars on his body left by fighting were extremely hideous.

Under the illumination of red flares.

He looks exactly like a Vajra Arhat.

Seeing Bian Fucheng preparing to lead his troops to continue the charge.

Sun Ming hurriedly grabbed Bian Fucheng's sweaty left arm and said, "What are you doing, Lao Bian? It's time to retreat!"

Bian Fucheng was speechless for a moment, a little hesitant: "I"

"Lao Bian, don't forget what the regimental commander has arranged. If the Japanese are prepared, we must retreat immediately."

"Besides, Lao Bian, think about it, after all this trouble, the Japanese will definitely not be able to sleep well. Our mission has been accomplished!"

Bian Fucheng nodded heavily and yelled, "Brothers, prepare to retreat, throw out the grenades, and treat the Japanese to a good meal!"

“Boom! Boom!”

The artillery support continued, and the soldiers fought and retreated.

At this time, Qian Bojun was already standing beside Chu Yunfei: "Commander, the Seventh and Eighth Companies have assembled. Qian Bojun requests to lead the team to provide support!"

"You are the head of a battalion, the commander!"

Chu Yunfei scolded: "It is fundamental for everyone to do their job. Where are Xue Jie, Liu Wang and the others?"

"Reporting to the regiment commander, the commanders of the seventh and eighth companies have been injured. Their respective deputy commanders have also died."

Zhang Fugui straightened his chest and stepped forward: "Commander, Zhang Fugui requests to lead the team for support!"

Chu Yunfei put his hands behind his back, and after a moment, he stepped forward and patted Zhang Fugui on the shoulder: "I'll wait for you to come back!"

"Yes, Danzao!"

Zhang Fugui was not a coward during this period of time.

He took out the pistol from his waist and rushed out of the command post.

Chu Yunfei glanced at Qian Bojun, then raised the telescope in his hand.

At this time, flares were still hanging in the sky above the battlefield.

Qian Bojun seemed a little hesitant: "Commander..."

Chu Yunfei turned his head and looked at him: "We are two brothers, do you have anything to worry about?"

Qian Bojun sighed: "Our army has been fighting bloody battles for seven or eight days, but support has not arrived yet."

"There's no need to mention this matter again. You and I are soldiers. We must obey orders and defend our country. We are not allowed to retreat without orders."

Qian Bojun paused and said, "Commander, can you listen to me?"

Chu Yunfei nodded, just as he said.

You and I are brothers, what can't we talk about?
"Well, go ahead and tell me. I'm all ears." Qian Bojun hesitated a little and then said, "I think we should change our battle strategy and focus on preserving our manpower."

"Well, any specific ideas?"

Qian Bojun nodded: "At present, in order to buy time, our army often adopts the form of positional blocking to confront the Japanese invaders' attacking forces head-on."

"Although our army's fortifications were well built and the mortar support was fast enough, the 60mm mortars were somewhat powerless when facing the Japanese tanks, armored vehicles, and barreled artillery..."

"We don't have enough range and power"

Chu Yunfei nodded. What Qian Bojun said were all objective facts.

"Today, the support from the mountain artillery battalion was timely."

"But you and I both know that tomorrow, the Japanese planes will definitely carry out targeted attacks on our mountain artillery battalion, and there is a high probability that it will be affected."

"So what are you going to do?"

Qian Bojun did not hesitate and said directly: "Commander, I suggest that we transform the positional blocking war into mobile warfare, or even guerrilla warfare, breaking up the whole into small pieces and harassing the enemy, taking advantage of the small, fast and flexible characteristics of our mortar platoon."

"Every step they take forward will be hit by our firepower, and they will have to pay a very painful price!"

Chu Yunfei nodded and smiled: "Yes, this is a good idea, but it is not feasible at this stage."

"Commander, why is this?"

Qian Bojun was very puzzled, and Chu Yunfei obviously agreed with his idea.

Otherwise, based on his understanding of Commander Chu, Chu Yunfei would definitely remain silent now.

"Because a group of Japanese soldiers broke through the encirclement of the 14th Army Group, and have engaged in fighting with the 2nd and 4th Battalions in the past two days."

"Commander, I am clear about this matter."

Qian Bojun frowned and thought, he asked tentatively: "Commander, are you planning to rely on our 358th Regiment to annihilate this group of devils?"

Chu Yunfei nodded and chuckled, "Can't we do it?"

Qian Bojun shook his head: "But Commander... with our troops and equipment..."

"Now is not the time to worry about personal gains and losses. For this war, you, me, and my brothers should always be determined to sacrifice everything to fight for the survival of the country and the nation."

Chu Yunfei motioned Qian Bojun to sit aside: "I know your concerns, but I can tell you clearly that even if the 358th Regiment is wiped out, it will still be the 358th Regiment, it will not change!"

After all, some ragtag troops were wiped out.

The military designation was soon cancelled by Chiang Kai-shek, and most of the military commanders became dependents and held deputy positions.

Although Qian Bojun was only a major and battalion commander, he had more than ten years of military career.

I also have my own network of relationships, so it's normal to get some information.

What's the purpose of fighting?
First, to protect the country and the people, and to resist foreign aggression. Even if one dies on the battlefield, there will be a separate page opened in the family tree. It is the greatest honor. This is the duty of a soldier.

Secondly, a man will die for his friend. Qian Bojun is willing to fight for Chu Yunfei and Yan Laoxi in order to repay the kindness of Chu and Yan.

The third reason is naturally for military merit and rewards, and this is for oneself, for living a good life.

Qian Bojun is also a human being, and Chu Yunfei is also a human being.

The battle lasted for such a long time.

The reinforcements have not arrived yet
It is normal for Qian Bojun to have these concerns.

After receiving Chu Yunfei's solemn promise, Qian Bojun felt visibly relieved.

however.

In fact, even Chu Yunfei was unsure of Chen Changjie's attitude.

He also didn't understand why there was no news of support from the 61st Army under Chen Changjie so far.

The entire surrounding area of ​​Yuanping County.

Chen Changjie's unit was the only Jinsui Army unit that had enough resources to provide support and lend a helping hand.

It's been seven days.
He couldn't be contacted, and neither could the Second War Zone Commander's Headquarters.

The 61st Army, where are the people?
