In Taierzhuang, only the remnants of the 31st Division and the Independent Brigade of our side stood firm in the northwest corner of Taierzhuang, while the Japanese army had occupied more than two-thirds of the entire Taierzhuang area, and a large number of troops were entrenched in it.

On the outer line of Taierzhuang, Wu Pengju's Independent 44th Brigade, Zhang Yaoming's 25th Division, Huang Qiaosong's 27th Division, Zhang Zhen's 110th Division, and Guan Linzheng's 52nd Army fought fiercely with the Japanese army nearby, presenting an overall situation of encirclement.

Farther away, the main force of Tang Enbo's No.20 Corps, Zhou Lei's 75th Army and Wang Zhonglian's 85th Army have defeated the blocking Japanese army and rushed towards this side quickly. Wang Zhaozhi's 333rd Brigade and the 60th Army of the Yunnan Army are also heading here During the border movement, Zhang Desun's 9th Cavalry Division wandered around the periphery, cutting off and harassing the Japanese army's supply lines.

On the whole, our army has almost surrounded Taierzhuang, and the Japanese fifth and tenth divisions are all in the encirclement.

Thinking of Li Zongren, the commander of the fifth war zone, who arrived at the front in person, and Sun Lianzhong who went to the front to supervise the battle in person, and changed his abnormal strict order that the 31st Division must stick to it until noon tomorrow...

When all the associations were made together, Chen Qingzhi suddenly came to his senses!

This is about to launch a general attack!

And the time for the general attack must be...Chen Qingzhi looked at the sand table again, summed up the distance, and found that Tang Enbo's No.20 Corps arrived in the north of Taierzhuang just before noon tomorrow, which means that the time for the general attack and the decisive battle , it must be at noon tomorrow!

In this way, it can also explain why Li Zongren will arrive at the front line in person, while Sun Lianzhong will be inconsistent and reject Chi Fengcheng, asking him to stick to it until noon tomorrow!

All of this can already be explained!

Thinking of this, Chen Qingzhi's heart was suddenly filled with excitement.

So far, their independent brigade has suffered such heavy losses, and finally this day has come!

If the Battle of Taierzhuang can be won, the efforts made by the Independent Brigade will be worth it!

Main text Chapter 388 Last stand, the situation is not good

Thinking of this, Chen Qingzhi quickly told Chi Fengcheng his conjecture.

Originally, Chi Fengcheng was a little shocked by Sun Lianzhong's order, but now that he heard Chen Qingzhi's analysis, he realized that a general attack was about to start.

After hearing this, Chi Fengcheng also showed a touch of excitement on his face.

He originally wanted to leave a spark for the 31st Division just because the decisive battle of the Tai Erzhuang battle was nowhere in sight, and he had been holding on to it, but there was no hope at all. Now, since Commander Li has decided to come to the front line tomorrow , Commanding and supervising the battle, Chi Fengcheng naturally stopped thinking about evacuating the position.

After all, the day of the decisive battle is imminent, and it is impossible for him to withdraw from the 31st Division no matter what!

Thinking of this, Chi Fengcheng reorganized his mind and said to Chen Qingzhi: "Since tomorrow is the decisive battle, it seems that my 31st Division will not be able to withdraw, nor can we withdraw! Brother Chen, we will fight side by side again next time." !"

"Isn't it just to persist until noon tomorrow! As long as this battle can be won, what pity will our Chifeng City and the 31st Division be wiped out here? Pass on the order. From now on, our 31st Division is determined to fight the Japanese army to the death. Persevere to the end! Whoever dares to take half a step back will be killed immediately!"

"In addition, order people to blow up the canal pontoon bridge, so that there is no way out! The 31st Division will fight with its back today, and it will not die!"

Chi Fengcheng stood up and said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

As soon as an order was issued, soldiers responded, and a dozen soldiers were sent to the side of the canal. Soon, there was a violent explosion in the distance, and the flames shot up into the sky, shining red light here, The faces of all the people present will be reflected in the cloudy and sunny.

The canal pontoon...has been blown up!

So far, the retreat of their 31st division is gone!

However, no one regretted it!

At this moment, all the remaining soldiers of the 31st Division, including those from the Independent Brigade, gathered here, with firm expressions on their faces.

Although they failed to withdraw, the soldiers did not complain at all. On the one hand, the 31st Division led by Chifengcheng had strict military discipline. There is no turning back.

Now, all the officers and soldiers of the 31st Division have already prepared to fight the Japanese army to the death and sacrifice their lives for the country. Therefore, when the order was issued and the way back was cut off, the soldiers not only did not lose their will, but cheered up I got up, my morale increased greatly, and I planned to fight the Japanese army here, right here in Taierzhuang!

Furthermore, there are two officers, Chi Fengcheng and Chen Qingzhi, who are here to take the lead and fight to the death with ordinary soldiers like them. Seeing that the officers are working hard here, the soldiers are naturally more fearless of death!

"Brothers, the commander-in-chief will arrive in Taierzhuang tomorrow to direct the troops to a decisive battle with the Japanese army. Commander Sun of my Second Army has also gone to the front in person to organize a death squad to attack the Japanese army. Bearing success or failure and one body, we should stick to this place and contribute to the final victory of this battle!"

Chi Fengcheng stood up and raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, the day of martyrdom has arrived. Today, at this moment, our 31st Division will fight to the death with the Japanese army. Tell me, are you afraid?" !"

"Not afraid! Not afraid!"

"I would like to fight with the Japanese army to the death with the seat of the teacher!"

The soldiers of the 31st Division responded loudly.

Although there are not many left in the 31st Division at this time, and there are only less than a thousand people in total, but the momentum of everyone gathered together, the power generated is breathtaking.

The sound came out one after another, spreading throughout the entire Taierzhuang battlefield.

Even the clouds of smoke in the sky were crushed and dissipated.

The sound also spread to the Japanese positions. When rushing into the command headquarters of the 21st and 11th Regiments of the Japanese Army in Shonai, Seishiro Itagaki, the division commander of the [-]th Division, couldn't help but follow his reputation. With a dignified look.

It took a long time before he couldn't help but shook his head, with a look of admiration on his face, and said in a deep voice: "The Chinese army is determined to die! Next, I'm afraid there will be another fierce battle! "

With such prestige and determination, how could Itagaki Seishiro not understand what it means?

He turned his head to look at the imperial warriors in the headquarters, and saw the soldiers around him again. Compared with the elites of the two regiments when they first joined the battle, there were far fewer.

When he first came here, although Itagaki Seishiro had a lot of respect for the defenders, when he really fought against the defenders, the fighting will and crazy decisiveness displayed by the opponent still made Itagaki Seishiro ruthless. He was shocked.

There are two full regiments, almost the strength of a brigade, and they are also members of the Fifth Division, which is known as the "Steel Army". You won't be at a disadvantage in a head-on confrontation.

But on the Taierzhuang battlefield, it was just facing the defenders with the 31st Division with only three to four out of ten combat effectiveness, plus an independent brigade with more than half of the losses and less than one regiment left, plus a long-distance attack, the soldiers were exhausted. The independent 44th brigade was inextricably fought.

In the end, if it weren't for the help of fighter planes, artillery, and tanks from the empire to provide fire support, and the remnants of the 33th Brigade and the [-]rd Brigade were on the flanks, it would be absolutely impossible for them to repel each other in a short time!

Even though they have successfully rushed into the village, they still suffered heavy losses!

For Seishiro Itagaki, this was not a victory at all, but a fiasco!

After all, the "Steel Army" in the Imperial Army actually collapsed in front of the opponent's troops whose total strength was less than one division. This is simply a shame for their Fifth Division!

But now, hearing the other party's shouts and the determination it represented, Seishiro Itagaki knew that the next battle would be even more tragic!

His two alliances may suffer heavy losses, and they may even be wiped out!

Thinking of this, Seishiro Itagaki's heart suddenly sank.

The battle situation was difficult, the imperial army could not reach it, and all around Taierzhuang, except for the inside of the village, were all the enemies of China on the periphery. Such a situation, for Seishiro Itagaki, was really a big crisis!

If one is not careful, once the Chinese army completes the encirclement, even if all the main forces of his Fifth Division are here, it will be absolutely impossible to rush out!

Because once that time comes, Taierzhuang will become a Jedi under the siege of the opponent!

He Itagaki Seishiro also called every day should not be, called the earth is not working!Even if he has the ability to reach the sky, he can never escape from the opponent's heavy siege!

At this thought, Seishiro Itagaki's eyes flashed a bright light.
