Chapter 32 Fame World Knows (8)
After the Japanese army's defense collapsed, the rest of the matter was easier to handle.
The Chinese army did not rush forward with bayonets and fight with hand-to-hand combat like the surrounded Japanese army imagined. After being strongly resisted by the Japanese army that had been divided into small waves, the Chinese army actually retreated.
Although the Chinese army had broken out of direct contact with the Japanese army, it still maintained a divided and encircled situation against the Japanese army. The Japanese officers and soldiers on various isolated positions did not cheer because they "repelled" the Chinese army. The bloody lessons over the past two days told them that the Chinese army in front of them would never retreat because they were afraid of fighting with the "Imperial Army", and they must have a reputation in it.
The Japanese army's premonition was still very accurate. Not long after, various artillery and heavy machine guns of the Chinese army were concentrated to remove firepower from the isolated positions occupied by the Japanese army. Under this attack, the Japanese army was already scattered and lacked heavy weapons, so they could only wait for death without any countermeasures. The Japanese army on several positions were unbearable and took the initiative to launch a suicide attack on the Chinese army. The result of this courageous and unscheming impulse could only allow the Chinese army to easily massacre them.
Under the "bullying" of artillery fire by the Chinese army, the Japanese army was soon wiped out almost. At about 40 or 50 in the morning, the brigade headquarters of the 30th Brigade, the last position of the Japanese army, was also attacked by the 97th Independent Brigade and the 100th Independent Brigade. A company commander named Han of the 200th Regiment rushed into Sasaki's office (a hole). He killed Sasaki. (The bullet was shot from the major general's crotch and shot into the depths of the major general's abdomen, causing the major general to die in pain a few minutes later.)
At this point, all the Japanese 30th Brigade, except for a small number of troops, were wiped out. After two full days of fighting, the bloody battle finally ended with the complete victory of the Chinese army.
As soon as the battle ended, Lieutenant General Huang issued an order to clean the battlefield to all the troops for an hour, and the entire army quickly evacuated. Cheng Jiaji immediately ordered Wen Songyuan's troops to withdraw back to the west bank. (He was afraid that the Wen Department and the brigade would not be able to return to the building in a short period of time. The Independent 100 Brigade had received an order from the war zone to allow the Independent 100 Brigade to stay in Xiaoxian County for another day or two to monitor the movements of the Japanese army.)
The division and brigade commanders on the battlefield had fought with the Japanese more than once, and had suffered losses from Japanese aircraft. They all knew in their hearts that the Japanese army suffered such a big loss this time, it would be strange if the Japanese army did not come to take revenge. If they exposed the troops in broad daylight and bombed the Japanese brigade planes on the plains, it would be no joke.
Out of their own interests, these people can understand Lieutenant General Huang's orders and execute them very effectively. As for Lieutenant General Huang's orders to collect and capture seriously injured Japanese soldiers, everyone is not so obedient.
Almost all divisions, brigades, and regiment commanders, including the Central Army, had a passive and slackened by this order. That is, they ignored the seriously injured Japanese soldiers and let them die. Anyway, there are 100 independent brigades stationed there in Xiaoxian, and the Japanese army could not get through for a while. These Japanese soldiers were seriously injured and could not survive in the wilderness. They were likely to be bitten to death by wild dogs. If this is true, they would take advantage of the hearts of all divisions, brigades, and regiment commanders. Their troops were all beaten up by the devil this time, and the one who hated the Japanese was so angry that they gritted their teeth.
Each unit has its own characteristics when cleaning the battlefield. The officers and soldiers of the 56th Division were very interested in the pockets of the Japanese soldiers who died in battle. They always searched the Japanese corpses inside and out, and even knocked down the gold teeth in their mouths before they were willing to stop.
Compared with the 56th Division, the soldiers of the 97th Brigade seemed a little petty. Dozens of bullets and a 38th hood could make them excited for a long time. The soldiers of the 333rd Brigade, who were born in the Northwest Army, were fond of any Japanese artillery they found. Unfortunately, the Japanese army had the same bad habit of destroying all heavy equipment when they were defeated. The soldiers of the 333rd Brigade could find Japanese artillery that could still be used.
The Central Army was the most generous. Although they also liked the 38th Gallery and the Type 92 heavy machine gun, the most popular one was the Japanese command knife. Wen Songyuan saw with his own eyes a Sichuan Army sold a Japanese army and an assistant sword to a battalion commander of the Central Army for 80 oceans.
The behavior of the soldiers of the 100 Independent Brigade is the most strange among so many troops. They were snatching money from the Japanese, but they were not paying money. From time to time, they took out some photos and other things and immediately handed them to the commander who led the team like a treasure. Some careful soldiers also discovered a secret. Wherever the soldiers of the 100 Independent Brigade passed, there was a Japanese who were hanging in one breath, and they would die immediately. The brave man walked closer and looked carefully and found that the trachea of these 100 Independent Brigade had been cut off with bayonets.
Although these soldiers discovered this situation, no one would go to inform the commander. They died as Japanese devils. They came to China to burn and kill*, so they should have died, not to mention that so many brothers have fallen under the guns of the Japanese army these days.
In their minds, the brothers of the Independent 100 Brigade did this. Not only did there be no officers and soldiers report it, many soldiers from the troops also followed the actions of the soldiers of the Independent 100 Brigade. Even many officers adopted a tacit attitude towards such disobeying military orders. In this way, in less than half an hour, all the Japanese soldiers who had not stopped on the battlefield ended their sinful lives. In the end, there were only three Japanese prisoners of war handed over to Lieutenant General Huang, who were handed over to the commander of a Central Army, and this person was immediately criticized by all colleagues and commanders. The commander then realized that he had done something wrong and regretted that he could snatch the three Japanese soldiers from Lieutenant General Huang and take the result with himself.
After all, no one wants to be bombed by the Japanese plane. After a brief cleanup of the battlefield, the Chinese troops drove away one after another.
The Japanese planes really came at dawn. There was no Japanese plane that could launch targets to launch strikes, so they could only hover over the battlefield for a while before returning to report their destruction to the base camp. (The Japanese pilots did not dare to drop bombs, but there were all Japanese corpses below. If the corpses of their own people were blown up, they would have to kill them.)
After evacuating to the safe area, all the division and brigade commanders were busy counting the casualties of their troops and counting how many Japanese troops killed and how many weapons they seized, and preparing to report to Lieutenant General Huang. These situations were then summarized by Lieutenant General Huang and reported to General Chen and the Military Commission. After doing these official articles, the next step is to reward merits and practices, which is what the commanders of these division and brigades are most concerned about now.
At 10:00 a.m. on May 25, Sunxuzi, an independent 100-vehicle brigade in Xiao County.
"Three thousand nine hundred people?! Brother Weili, you are not wrong." Cheng Jiaji has become increasingly suspicious of Qian Shen's digital statistics ability recently. Why does Qian Shen always report some digital statistics results that surprised him?
"That's right, I didn't miss any of the hundreds of logistics personnel from Chief of Staff. There are indeed only 3,900 wounded people in my brigade now."
Qian Shenke has never been a person who can cater to his superiors, and he will tell the truth even if he is regarded as a bird of death.
"How many minor and serious injuries are there?"
"There are 1,300 minor injuries, 900 serious injuries, and about 1,600 people were killed or missing."
"How is Liu Yicheng's injury?" Cheng Jiaji was defeated again in front of Qian Shen's meticulousness, and instead cared about Liu Yicheng who was rushed to Gao Shiyingna due to serious injuries.
"It's very heavy. The telegram sent by Chief Gao said that before Commander Liu woke up, he might never wake up forever, and there was no life-threatening moment."
"Tell Gao Shiying that he would rescue me at all costs. If he was cured here, he would send people to Wuhan. If Wuhan could not cure it, he would go to Hong Kong. No matter how much he would spend, let Gao Shiying remember that I want a lively Liu Zijun." Cheng Jiaji still attaches great importance to Liu Yicheng, a passionate young man among overseas Chinese. This time Liu Yicheng was injured so seriously, Cheng Jiaji was really anxious. When he heard Gao Shiying report that Liu Yicheng might become a vegetable, Cheng Jiaji was anxious. Qian Shen sent a power to Gao Shiying and asked him to wake up Liu Yicheng at all costs.
"If you continue to work, go and do it." Qian Shen also attaches great importance to Liu Yicheng, but it is different from Cheng Jiaji's appreciation and cherishment of a talent. Qian Shen's emphasis is obviously mixed with more other factors. For example, Liu Yicheng is the son of a wealthy overseas overseas. With such a person holding an important position in the Independent One Hundred Brigade, it will be very beneficial for the Independent One Hundred Brigade to raise donations from overseas Chinese and attracting overseas Chinese children to join the army in the future.
Seeing that Qian Shen took Liu Yicheng's affairs as a matter, Cheng Jiaji said with satisfaction: "Then Wei Li will be troubled by this matter."
He knew that in Qian Shen's heart, Liu Yicheng was just a tool. If Cheng Jiaji knew that Qian Shen was already calculating Liu Yicheng's father's money, he would definitely be amazed in his heart that this person was so sinister that he actually wanted to pull everyone in the water. However, even if Cheng Jiaji knew Qian Shen's idea, he would not drive Qian Shen away. This is because he did his best in doing things and never had any bad intentions towards Cheng Jiaji. Secondly, if such a conspiracy is not included in the account, should he let him use it to deal with him for others?
So even if Qian Shen repeatedly made his own decisions, Cheng Jiaji still had to keep this by his side.
"Brother Wei Li, the photos found from the Japanese, have you asked Director Sato of the Political Department to send them to the Political Department of the Military Commission?" The photos Cheng Jiaji mentioned were those inhumane confessions taken when the Japanese 30th Brigade was in Nanjing. These photos are ironclad evidence of the Japanese army's massacre. Some were found from the Japanese army who were killed on the west bank of the Xiaoban River, and the other was found from the bodies of Japanese soldiers while cleaning the east bank. (Although Major General Sasaki ordered all the evidence to be burned, because time was rushed, his order was not completely implemented in the Japanese army.)
"Report to the brigade, Director Sato has set off." When talking about those things, even Qian Shen, who had always been as hard as iron, was a little disgusted.
Perhaps because he felt that this topic was too heavy, Cheng Jiaji immediately changed to another topic that everyone was concerned about.
"Brother Wei Li, how to solve the problem of replenishing troops in your army?" After this battle, three regiments of the Independent One Hundred Brigade were all crippled, each regiment had only 800 or 900 people. The worst replenishing regiment was less than 600, and the other two regiments were not far behind. What Cheng Jiaji was most concerned about was to quickly get a large number of soldiers from there, and it would be better to fight immediately, so that the Independent One Hundred Brigade could recover some vitality as soon as possible. Cheng Jiaji had long been an angry young man with passion at this time. He knew very well in his heart that if he had no soldiers in his hands, he would not be able to realize his ideal of driving the Japanese out of China faster.
Before Qian Shen could reply, Wen Songyuan rushed in quickly.
"Boss Cheng, I want to marry my wife, even if I die!" Wen Songyuan's first words surprised Cheng Jiaji. When would this guy become a love species? Could it be that he would marry the old girl in the yard?
Like the original Cheng Jiaji, Wen Songyuan was also a lustful person. However, unlike the original Cheng Jiaji, Wen Songyuan never had the habit of marrying women home or keeping them in. He always got entangled with brothel women in the same place when he went to one place.
A person like Wen Songyuan is just saying that a flower bushes and leaves don’t touch her body, and a person who is a real brothel. Why did he want to get married overnight?
After a long time, Wen Songyuan, who was too excited and excited, heard a little bit unsatisfied.
This time, Wen Songyuan was interested in the eldest lady of the commander-in-chief of the Xiao County People's Armed Joint Defense Command, which is the only daughter of the leader of the Xiao County Green Forest Alliance. The girl's name is Qin Yulan. The girl's name is very ordinary but very unusual. Not only is she outstanding and handsome, she also has a good shooting technique that can shoot with both hands. This time she cooperated with the Independent 100 Brigade, and the girl also went there, but her leader Wen Da fell in love with her. But they said that she would have to have five hundred quick guns as betrothal gifts before she could marry. So, Wen Songyuan asked his elder brother for a gift.
Just when Cheng Jiaji was thinking about how to dispel Wen Songyuan's intention to marry this girl (Cheng Jiaji was not heartbroken by the five hundred guns, but felt that the girl had no intention of marrying Wen Songyuan at all, just to make excuses to refuse. Even if she relied on power to force the girl to marry her, I was afraid that it would not be a blessing for Wen Songyuan. Not to mention that this is my place, if the relationship is broken, it would be troublesome.)
"I think whether this can be accomplished by adding a large number of soldiers depends on the marriage of the delegation leader Wen." Qian Shen, who was standing by, was very concerned about Wen Songyuan's marriage, but this time it was the drunken man's intention that he was not drinking.
