Red Alert Invincible

The Fifth Regiment was forced to retreat to the last small area south of the Liuhe River, and Liang Zuoxun's headquarters was already their last line of defense.

There were only more than 400 people left in the fifth regiment, including the wounded soldiers, and Liang Zuoxun also took the civilian soldiers of the command to the front line, leaving the baby soldiers to take care of the wounded.

A mortar shell exploded in front of Liang Zuoxun, and a huge heat wave tossed him into the trench.

"Regiment commander!" the staff officer hurriedly pulled him up.

"I ...... It's okay!" Liang Zuoxun climbed up with his forehead, and the blood left down his forehead, wetting his right eye.

He gasped and looked at the trenches on the left and right, the remaining more than 300 soldiers of the Fifth Regiment were constantly shooting at the Japanese army, there were only three light machine guns left, only one heavy machine gun left, and the mortars had long been blown up, this was their last line of defense.

"Regiment commander! Withdraw!" The staff officer couldn't help but burst into tears: "Withdraw! If you don't withdraw, the whole regiment will really be gone!"

Liang Zuoxun checked the pistol in his right hand, and while loading ammunition, he said: "The order we received is to defend the Liuhe River until the support arrives, without the order of the superiors, even if it is death, I will die here!"

The staff officer couldn't figure it out: "Why can't we retreat as before? We fought from Guangdong to the Yangtze River, and from the Yangtze River to follow the chairman of the National People's Congress on the Northern Expedition, and we also lost and retreated, so why can't you leave some seeds for our Fifth Regiment, regiment commander?"

Liang Zuoxun spat out a mouthful of blood, leaned against the trench with his body, and said, "Because this is a national war!"

"National War?"

"The war of the country, the war of the nation!" Liang Zuoxun coughed loudly twice: "The brothers of the air force have repelled the fleet of the devils, we have absolute air superiority, and the bombing makes the little devils cry and cry for their fathers and mothers, if they can't hold it even for a day! As a result, our army has lost Shanghai! Lost Songhu, what should we do to meet the fathers and elders of the whole country! Go to meet the ancestors!"

In the original history, the Japanese army relied on the heavy artillery of the naval fleet to defeat the Liuhe River, which was only garrisoned by a small number of troops of the Teaching Corps, and then approached Taicang, causing the 19th Route Army and the Fifth Army to be attacked on both sides, and had to retreat to the second line of defense around Jiading, and it was precisely because of this that Shanghai was lost.

And in this time and space, because of the appearance of Xue Lin and his Zhenbei Army, the Songhu battlefield has been accelerated too much, and the Fifth Regiment of the Nineteenth Route Army stationed in Liuhe is still not transferred to the front line, plus the support of the Air Force to repel the Japanese fleet, without heavy artillery bombardment, and with the support of the Air Force, the Fifth Regiment held Liuhe with half of the casualties in front of the Japanese Eleventh Division without heavy artillery!

This army, which fought from Xinhai to the Northern Expedition and from the Northern Expedition to Songhu, deserves to be called the 'Iron Army'! Even in the face of 16 times the enemy, they still held their positions with the will to die for the country, not only because they received orders to hold until the reinforcements arrived, but also because this was a national war!

"Regiment commander!" a herald trotted through the trench under artillery fire, and the earth sprayed by the Japanese shells was covered in mud and sand.

He came to Liang Zuoxun and gasped: "Third battalion! The defense line of the third battalion has been broken through!!"

"What?!" Liang Zuoxun grabbed his collar and asked, "Where is Zou Rong!"

"Battalion Commander Zou!" Battalion Commander Zou—" The soldier choked like a child: "Battalion Commander Zou organized the last forty soldiers of the third battalion to launch a counter-charge to recapture the position, and then ...... All dead...... All dead!"

"Old Zou ......" Liang Zuoxun was incredulous.

The soldier continued to cry and said: "Regiment commander, among the baby soldiers, there is a child named Zou Dagou, who is the baby of the Zou battalion commander. "

Liang Zuoxun burst into tears: "Old Zou, you fucking bastard, why did you leave!"

Then he angrily wiped the blood and tears from his face, picked up his rifle, and shouted to his brothers: "Big husband! I should be a great man in life! I will be a ghost after death! Today, I, Liang Zuoxun, will go to Huangquan with all my brothers! Newspaper the death of the country! Let the little devils know! I still have the backbone of a Chinese soldier!!"

The remaining 300 fighters in the position of the 5th Regiment shouted:

"Let's go to Huangquan together!

"Dead Country!" "Dead Country!" "Dead Country!"

This matter is very important, maybe these soldiers have no culture, and they don't even know what a nation is, but at this moment, Liang Zuoxun gathered the confused national consciousness in their hearts and let them understand who they were dying for!

Die for the country, and die for the country!

Liang Zuoxun looked at the Japanese army in front of him who was bowing down and attacking, and laughed: "In the next life, we will still be brothers!"

Boom –

A shell landed in the Japanese position, blasting several little devils into the sky along with the dirt.

Then, a continuous burst of artillery rang out, and round after round of shells fell from the Japanese positions.

Liang Zuoxun looked at this scene blankly, and the staff officers on the side were so happy that they cried and laughed, pulled Liang Zuoxun's sleeve and pointed at the southern terrier: "Regiment commander! It's reinforcements! Our reinforcements have arrived!"

The trumpet sounded in the south, and two regiments of the 120th Brigade and one battalion of the supporting Teaching Regiment, more than 6,000 soldiers rushed to the battlefield and launched an attack on the flank of the Japanese army!

The remaining more than 300 soldiers of the Fifth Regiment were greatly boosted, and under the command of Liang Zuoxun, they also roared and launched a counter-charge against the Japanese army!

At the same time, the bomber group, which had been restocked with fuel and aerial bombs, also frantically threw aerial bombs weighing 250 kilograms at the Japanese troops, constantly strafing the Japanese positions at low altitudes.

The 120th Brigade relied on air superiority and the low morale of the Japanese army after the setback, and in one fell swoop, it defeated two Japanese wings!

The Third Fleet immediately fired shells at the 120th Brigade, stopped the pursuit of the 120th Brigade, and gathered the infantry of the 11th Division and covered it within the range of the ship's guns.

The commander of the 11th Division, Atsutaro Atsuto, was so angry that he threw several binoculars, and the commander of the Japanese Shanghai Dispatch Army, Shirakawa Yoshinori, knew that there was no chance left, and decisively ordered the Third Fleet to withdraw the 11th Division. Liuhe! Hold on!

On the afternoon of 6 February, the 120th Brigade led two regiments and the brigade headquarters, as well as a battalion of the Teaching Regiment, with more than 6,000 people, to the Liuhe battlefield and successfully rescued the siege of Liuhe.

But when they saw the remaining soldiers of the five regiments in Liuhe, the soldiers who came to support were all moved.

A reorganized regiment, more than 1,000 people, only 360 people remained, half of them were wounded, more than 50 were seriously wounded, and countless soldiers died on the battlefield because they could not receive timely medical treatment.

Liang Zuoxun, the commander of the Fifth Regiment, was wounded, the deputy commander was seriously injured and died, half of the officers of the regiment were killed, and almost all the other half were wounded, the first battalion commander Liao Muyun was killed, the second battalion commander Tang Yi was seriously injured, the third battalion commander Zou Rong died on the front line, and the company commander and platoon commander below were not one out of ten.

The worst thing was that the third battalion, which was the first to encounter the enemy and had been fighting on the front line, had more than 300 people in the battalion, and only five baby soldiers and twelve wounded remained!

The Battle of Liuhe was personally commended by Chairman Chiang by telegram, and after being reported by newspapers and radio, the whole country was shaken!
