Chapter 697 I, Chu Yunfei, am willing to sign a military order and bring my head to you if I fail to
Chu Yunfei was persuaded by Chief of Staff Fang Ligong to change the previous combat order and ordered in a serious tone: "Brother Ligong, let the first and second battalions start the action immediately and prepare to encircle the Japanese airborne troops! The third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth battalions must guard the perimeter for me. We must not let the Japanese break our position."
"College student, I, Chu Yunfei, am willing to sign a military order. If I cannot eliminate the Japanese paratroopers, I will be willing to come to you with my head on my shoulders!"
After saying this, Chu Yunfei hurriedly led his men out of the underground combat command center and rushed to the front line to command.
Lin Zhenhua did not stop Chu Yunfei's actions and let the 358th Regiment watch the show from the side. This was really too inhumane and not conducive to the relationship between the two sides.
"Sanwazi, let the soldiers on the front line retreat and rest, immediately treat the injured, send them to the field hospital in the rear as soon as possible, and do your best to save them."
Under the command of Lin Zhenhua, the counterattack lasted until about three o'clock in the afternoon. As the sky became dark, the Japanese air force could not launch a fourth round of attack, which made Lin Zhenhua breathe a sigh of relief.
After confirming that the Japanese would not launch a fourth attack, Lin Zhenhua immediately drove to the nearby field airport and drove a fighter jet back to the Zhaojiayu base. He ordered all the bombers on standby in the base to be ready and follow him to air raid the Pingding Gold Mine tonight to help Li Yunlong eliminate the Japanese at the Pingding Gold Mine as quickly as possible.
Yamamoto Ikki, who had a very keen intuition on the battlefield, felt a huge crisis. He knew very well that he would never be able to hold the position with the more than 2,000 people in his hands, and the pacification of the gold mine could only delay for four or five days at most.
It's really not that he lacks ability, but that he doesn't have enough weapons and ammunition. He has been waiting for several days for the airdrop, but it has not arrived yet. He only received more than 20 rounds of ammunition this afternoon. The food is still better, and the stored food is enough for another month.
We really need to thank Taro Mitsui for this. He had previously arranged for people to store hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain in the Pingding Gold Mine, which is now in use. Otherwise, the Japanese would have been forced to retreat early due to food shortages.
"Sir, we do have enough food to last us another month, but we don't have any warm clothes. The weather is getting colder day by day, especially after December, the temperature will only get colder."
"The warriors are still wearing thin clothes. We must ask the rear to airdrop a batch of cotton clothes to us. Otherwise, we will suffer a large number of non-combat casualties. I believe this is something the headquarters does not want to see." Kuroda Ichiro suggested with a serious face and bowed.
A bitter smile appeared on Yamamoto Ikki's serious face. An army of more than 12 people was attacking Taiyuan City, and the supplies needed were enormous. It was impossible to complete the task relying solely on the th Army. Now they were completely relying on the North China Front Army.
"Kuroda, the headquarters also wants to airdrop some supplies for us, but some things are not as easy as imagined. We are just a temporary unit, and we don't have any achievements to show for it. The Empire lost more than a dozen fighter planes just to airdrop ammunition for us, so we had to terminate the airdrop operation ahead of schedule."
"We really have no way to make any further decisions about the headquarters' actions. The commander is in a very difficult situation right now. General Tada is keeping an eye on him and won't allow him to make even the slightest mistake. We should not cause him any more trouble at this time!"
"I'll go look for Mitsui Taro and see if we can find a way to get help from them. I know these guys like to hide in three places, so they must have good stuff hidden nearby. As long as we can get ammunition replenishment, we can hold out longer. The commander has high hopes for the center-blooming tactic, and we can't let him down. This is our only chance to repay him for his support!"
Upon hearing the news, Taro Mitsui rushed over in a hurry. He now regretted very much that he followed Yamamoto Ikki to the Pingding Gold Mine. He thought he could make a fortune from this opportunity, but he almost lost his life.
Kojiro Hirata did not continue hiding. His uncle, General Tada, had come to the front line to supervise the battle. With him staying at the Pingding Gold Mine, no matter how careless the nearby Japanese troops were, they would not watch him die in the Pingding Gold Mine.
Besides, the special forces under Yamamoto Ikki are very powerful. Even if they cannot help defend the Pingding Gold Mine, they should have no problem evacuating him safely.
"Mr. Yamamoto, we can hand over all the weapons and ammunition in stock, but you must also show your sincerity. Mitsui and I don't want to stay in the Pingding Gold Mine any longer. You need to send two special agent teams to take us away safely. We will hand over all the hidden ammunition to you. This deal is very fair. What do you think?"
