After giving the order, the corps captain turned his attention to the radio operator beside him: "Send a telegram to the counterattack troops immediately and ask how they are preparing? Can they launch an attack on the National Rescue Army outside the city on time at 5:30!"

Upon hearing the order, everyone in the command center focused their attention on the radio operator.

This wait took five minutes, and no matter how the radio operator called, the counterattack troops had no response.

The radio operator was so anxious that his forehead was sweating coldly.

Taking a deep breath, forcing myself to calm down, and calling the counterattack troops again. After confirming that they really did not respond, I had to put down my headphones and report with a stinging bullet: "Sir, I can't contact the counterattack troops!"

"No matter how I call, their radio station has no response. Beizhi feels that they are marching urgently, and the radio station cannot stop and turn on the computer!"

The captain of the regiment frowned again, but it stretched out after only two or three seconds, obviously very much in recognition of the radio operator's report.

Because they had just contacted the counterattack troops half an hour ago, they had not encountered any accidents on the march and promised in the telegram that they could arrive at the attack position on time...

Half an hour has passed, so there will definitely be no accident.

Order immediately: "You keep calling them on the radio! The big counterattack is about to begin. They are indeed likely to be preparing for the next attack, not having time to turn on, or performing radio silence to prevent the target from being exposed. In either case, they will turn on after the attack begins. At that time, you must make sure that the connection between the command and them is unobstructed and keep up to date on them!"

Seeing the radio operator put on his headphones again, the corps leader decisively put this problem behind his mind.

The large counterattack is about to begin. As the direct commander of the entire battle, he not only needs to pay attention to the counterattack troops outside the city, but also needs to focus on the counterattack troops inside the city and the national rescue army outside the city. Only by grasping the latest news on the battlefield can he have evidence and make the correct decision.

"Sir, our counterattack troops gathered at the East Gate are already very good at fighting the National Salvation Army assault troops!" The telephone soldiers reported nervously.

The captain of the regiment did not answer the conversation, nodded and waved his hand to signal the telephone to leave.

He issued the order for the counterattack troops to participate in the battle, so the situation reported by the telephone soldiers just now was completely within his plan.

Two minutes later, the telephone soldier who had just left appeared again in front of the corps captain: "The chief garrison reported that the National Salvation Army's offensive was very fierce, and the artillery fire was particularly fierce. The troops suffered great losses. Nearly a hundred people had been killed or killed in the counterattack force that had just joined the battle!"

The captain of the regiment was very heartbroken after hearing this. He never expected that the "last struggle" of the National Salvation Army could cause such great losses to him. His fists were tightly pinched and he wanted to scold people.

But when the troops were about to fight back, the corps captain was relieved.

No matter how hard the national rescue army outside the city struggled, they could only take advantage of it. When the troops started to fight back, they would not be arrogant and would be able to take revenge and to get revenge, and to destroy them all outside the city.

The telephone soldiers looked at him and ordered very seriously: "Tell the troops stationed in the east of the city to hold on for another ten minutes."

"Boom..." Two explosions suddenly spread from the west of the city to the command center.

At first, the captain thought something happened. It was not until two more explosions came from the west of the city that he realized that someone fired fire in the west of the city.

He quickly ordered the telephone soldiers: "Contact the garrison in the west of the city immediately to find out what happened to the explosion just now?"

After saying that, the captain looked at the telephone soldier nervously.

The arrow is not turned back, and the counterattack is about to begin. If an accident occurs on your back at this moment, the loss will be great. Maybe it will affect the subsequent counterattack, resulting in the failure of the troops' counterattack!

Before the telephone soldier could shake the phone, the phone rang by himself.

After grabbing the microphone and listening for half a minute, he was anxious to report: "Sir, the phone was called by the garrison in the west of the city. They were attacked by two mountain cannons, the city gate was blown up, and at least one company of the National Salvation Army launched an assault on the city gate, and they requested reinforcements!"

The captain of the regiment was furious after hearing this: "Bageya Road, so many troops cannot even stop them from more than a hundred national-savior troops. What do I want them to do?"

The captain of the garrison was anxious: "Sir, please calm down!"

"Although the National Salvation Army only has one company, they equipped two mountain cannons and exploded the city gate with their hands. An infantry company concentrated its forces to assault the city gate. The troops garrisoned in the west of the city may indeed not be able to stop it."

"In order to gather enough troops to participate in the next large counterattack, we transferred 150 troops from the west of the city. They are now less than 100, and the Imperial Army has less than one combat unit, which is equipped with only three light aircraft, scattered on the city wall more than a thousand meters long. The troops defending the city gate are probably less than a platoon, and they are definitely not the opponent of the National Salvation Army."

The captain of the regiment could not continue to scold after hearing this.

He issued the order to dispatch troops himself. If the west of the city is really broken through by the national rescue army because of insufficient troops in the garrison, he will definitely bear the main responsibility.

Therefore, the troops in the west of the city must block the attacking troops of the National Salvation Army in any case. Looking at the telephone soldiers, they were very anxious to order: "Call the troops in the west of the city immediately and let them delay the National Salvation Army at all costs. The National Salvation Army must not go deep into the county to cause damage!"

"Another two hundred people were drawn from the counterattack troops to reinforce the west of the city. If there is a national rescue army entering the county town, they must be driven out!"

The captain of the garrison hesitated and reminded: "Sir, the counterattack troops have only more than 600 people in total, and now more than 100 casualties have been killed or killed. If two hundred people are drawn away, they will be less than 300 people left. Bei Zhi is worried that they will be crippled by the National Rescue Army before they can last until half past five and cannot participate in the next major counterattack."

The captain of the regiment nodded: "It is indeed a bit too many to draw two hundred people at a time, so draw one hundred people to marche and reinforce the west of the city. The remaining counterattack troops remain in the east of the city, and while blocking the attacking troops of the National Salvation Army, they prepare for counterattack."

The captain of the garrison immediately received the order: "The chief is wise, and I will give orders to the counterattack troops now..."

When he returned to the map again, the telephone soldier appeared in front of the wing captain again.

Compared with the nervous expression just now, there was a noticeable heaviness on his face this time.

He lowered his head and reported anxiously: "Sir, our phone contact with the troops garrison in the west of the city has been interrupted!"

"Nani?" After hearing the bad news, the captain of the regiment had a bad premonition about the big counterattack tonight for the first time.

The siege troops in the west did not fight early or late, but they just fought when they were about to counterattack. This was a coincidence.

Thinking of the counterattack troops outside the city also lost contact, the attack troops in the east of the city suddenly strengthened their offensive at this time...

So many accidents happened before his eyes, so he couldn't help but think about it.

But the urgent battle situation did not have time for him to think about these problems. As soon as he frowned, the adjutant next to him suddenly reminded: "Sir, there are still five minutes to counterattack!"

The counterattack that the troops are about to launch is definitely more important than the more than 100 national-savior troops attacking the west of the city.

As long as the troops kill the main force of the National Salvation Army outside the city during the counterattack, more than 100 National Salvation Army in the west of the city will become rootless trees and will easily be destroyed by themselves.

The corps leader was able to tell the importance of the matter and immediately ordered: "Major matters are the most important, and there is no need to worry about the battles in the west of the city."

"Even if more than a hundred national-savior troops enter the county town, as long as the reinforcements rush over in time, it will be no problem to hold them back!"

"Order all troops in the east of the city to be prepared for counterattack, and all the remaining artillery in the city are ready to be fired, and aim at the offensive troops outside the city."

"As soon as the counterattack troops outside the city started to act, we immediately fired a counterattack and broke out of the county town!"

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and everyone was staring at their watches. The officers without watches were all staring at the pendulum clocks standing by the wall, motionless, and quietly waiting for the last moment to arrive.

At half past five, everyone stood up their ears and listened carefully to the sounds from outside the city, trying to distinguish the sounds of the counterattack troops from the chaotic guns and cannons.

The result disappointed them.

A minute passed, and the sound of cannons from the east of the city did not increase at all, and all the explosions came from the top of the city.

It means that the National Salvation Army is still attacking the city wall with artillery, and they themselves are not attacked.

In order to facilitate marching, although the counterattack troops lurking outside the city were not equipped with bulky mountain cannons, they were equipped with many mortars.

After the counterattack began, they would definitely launch the national rescue army first, bombard the opponent, and then send infantry to assault.

The National Salvation Army was not attacked by artillery fire, which means that the counterattack troops have not yet begun to attack.

At 5:30, it was the counterattack time he had agreed with them. The captain of the regiment did not believe that the counterattack troops had the courage to disobey their military orders.

But their attack did not start, and some accidents occurred.

This is the judgment of the team leader. The more you think about it, the deeper your brows will be.

Seeing that all the subordinates around him showed a worried expression, and even a panic expression, the captain of the regiment realized that this was a sign of unstable morale in the army.

The counterattack troops outside the city did not launch an attack on time, and many people must have thought something had happened to them.

If this is the case, the county garrison in the entire Shouyang will be left with only a few troops. Not to mention the counterattack and national rescue army, they can't even protect themselves.

If the command headquarters is really unstable and the upward movement and downward action, the entire army will be unstable, which will affect the subsequent large-scale counterattack.

So the corps leader must solve this problem immediately and thought about it for a while: "Don't panic, we have more than 3,000 counterattack troops lurking outside the city. There are no troops in Shouyang that can threaten their safety, so there will definitely be no problems!"

"The reason why I didn't launch an attack immediately must be something that delayed."

"There is nothing unusual about our National Salvation Army outside the city, which also means that the hidden troops have not been exposed yet."

"Let's wait a moment and order the troops stationed in the east of the city not to act rashly, and they must wait until the counterattack troops outside the city start to take action!"
