As soon as the Battle of Songhu ended, the Battle of Jiangyin began. This was a battle that was destined to kill, a tragic battle!
The Japanese army advanced together, and with the support of their powerful firepower, they continued to bombard the gates of Jiangyin.
In Qingyang, this could be considered a corner of Jiangyin battlefield. It was relatively remote, but the battle was still in full swing!
"Company commander, company commander, someone is coming over there.”Ye Fan and the others were planning how to fight this battle when they heard a Warrior run over and shout.
"Someone's here? Who is it?"
"I don't know. It looks like an army, but they seem to have retreated.”
Ye Fan's eyes turned when he heard this. This place was located at the back of the Jiangyin battlefield. Even if the army was defeated and retreated, it was normal.
"Let's go and take a look!" Ye Fan waved his hand, and everyone stood up one after another. However, they kept a low profile. After all, they did not know anything at the moment.
The sky gradually darkened and night fell. At this moment, Ye Fan realized that a drop of rain suddenly fell from the sky. Immediately after, everyone felt it, but they didn't pay much attention to it.
Seeing that the team was gradually approaching, Ye Fan finally reacted. This was the Central Army that had just retreated from the battlefield in Jiangyin. The Japanese's artillery fire was fierce, and they were directly beaten to the point of not being able to fight back. They had no choice but to retreat.
"Captain, I know who they are!”At this moment, Zhang De approached Ye Fan and said.
"Oh? Who are they?" Ye Fan's interest was piqued as he asked.
"They're from the 72nd Division, Commander Xie's command, the Central Army. They're a luxurious troop. I didn't expect them to be defeated so quickly.”
"The 72nd Division?" Ye Fan's eyes flashed as he muttered. He didn't expect the Jiangyin Battle to be so one-sided. It seemed that the Japanese were determined not to drag it out for so long like they did in Shanghai.
There weren't many people in the team, only about a few hundred people. It seemed that their commander was afraid that there would be too many people, so they scattered. After all, the Japanese were running around everywhere. Who knew if the Japanese would be waiting for them in front?
Looking at these people, they were defeated soldiers. Each of them had the characteristics of a defeated army. Frustration, unwillingness, and fear. Most of the people were still bandaging their wounds, and blood seeped out from the muddy gauze. On the stretcher, the wails of the wounded continued to ring out.
The aura of a fierce battle suddenly emerged, and the smell of blood spread with their arrival.
Everyone fell silent. Most of them had participated in the Battle of Songhu, so they understood the pain the most.
"Company commander, I know this 72nd Division. They were the direct line of command of the central government and had a lot of money in their hands. If I'm not wrong, the one in front of us should be Liu Mazi's company.”Old Cat also came over and said with a smile.
Ye Fan glanced at this "know-it-all". He had been in the army all year round, so he might really know some things.
"Then tell me."
"Company commander, I've heard about the 72nd Division from Song Hu before. Their mission is to temporarily stop the Japanese army so that Jiangyin's defenses are complete.”
"But I accidentally heard Song Hu say that the 72nd Division is not united. Because of the relationship with the central government, many people want to take bribes from the country. I have long disliked them!”
Ye Fan sneered. He did not expect to encounter such a thing."I think your hands are itching, right?"
Tomcat smiled awkwardly when it heard that. It never expected to expose itself. Mistake, mistake.
The rain gradually began to fall, and the air became humid. The weather seemed to be telling the story of misery, adding a trace of annoyance to the originally irritable 72nd Army.
A group of handcarts moved slowly in the army. Unlike the stretchers, these handcarts were covered with simple straw mats. As the handcarts passed by, they left behind deep ruts.
Those were all collected weapons, most of which belonged to the soldiers. It was already difficult enough to retreat, but the orders from above were to retrieve these weapons.
There was no other reason than the phrase "scorched earth resistance", which was also what Old Jiang said the most.
Even if it was broken, it couldn't be left for the Japanese!
And who were the 72nd Division? He was raised by his own mother! Their equipment was all expensive German goods. Many of the Japanese's equipment could not compare!
" Class monitor, look at this." Ye Fan raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Cheng with a smile.
However, when Lu Cheng saw Ye Fan like this, he was so scared that he shivered. He knew what Ye Fan meant. It was nothing more than taking a fancy to the things on the cart. However, could they take them? Would they dare to take it?
