"But what I'm curious about is, since the opponent is so strong, why doesn't he attack the city further and then retreat into the mountains?" the Japanese Major asked doubtfully.
With the opponent's strength, even attacking the city would be a piece of cake. There would be enough time to capture the city and survey it before proceeding.
"Maybe they are afraid of casualties. Attacking a city is not that simple. No matter how powerful they are, there will definitely be casualties.
And the opponent only has a few hundred people, one less person. It’s a huge loss for them,” Guizi Lieutenant Colonel guessed.
Sieging a city is not that simple. Although the opponent is powerful, the number of people is too small after all.
"I'm afraid this is the only explanation." The Japanese Major nodded.
"Did you send a telegram to the headquarters about the airport being bombed?" asked the Japanese Lieutenant Colonel.
This incident is too big. It can be said that it is their biggest loss since the attack on Wuhan, especially the death of the pilot. I am afraid that the commander will be furious if he knows about it.
"I have sent it, but the headquarters has not responded to the telegram yet." The Japanese Major replied. When he arrived at the airport, he quickly asked someone to send a telegram to the headquarters.
"Well, just wait for the news quietly. For this unit, the commander will not let them go. We must be ready for mobilization." Lieutenant Colonel Japanese said.
They suffered such heavy losses, and it was impossible for the commander to let them leave safely.
"Hey, I'm afraid the captain is still in the enemy's hands. Why don't you rescue him?" the Japanese Major asked.
Their team leader is not dead yet, so we can’t just give up.
"The airport was bombed and the brigade commander was shattered. At this time, do you think the commander would still care about a regiment commander?" Lieutenant Colonel Japanese looked over.
Although officers at the level of wing commander are also very important, they can still be trained, but it will take more time to train so many pilots.
The commander has only one goal in mind right now, which is to annihilate all of this force.
"Besides, what do you think we can do to save the captain? Before we could save him, the captain might have been broken into pieces." Japanese Lieutenant Colonel continued.
The reason why the captain was arrested was definitely because he gave the order to massacre the city, and it was impossible for the other party to let the captain go.
The Japanese Major fell silent, which was equivalent to completely giving up on the still-living captain.
If it were the brigade commander who was captured, I'm afraid the commander would consider it, but it was the regiment commander who was captured.
"In short, we must be careful in the next encirclement and suppression of this unit. The other party's commander is very powerful, so don't capsize the boat in the gutter." Japanese Lieutenant Colonel warned.
Judging from what has happened in the past few days, the enemy commander is very smart and almost fools them around.
Moreover, the opponent is very strong, and he doesn’t know how many people the commander will send to encircle and suppress this unit. If it is just a regiment, he feels that the encirclement will be overwhelming.The suppression is unlikely to succeed.
"Understood" the Japanese Major nodded.
Six o'clock the next morning.
In a forest about ten miles away from the brigade headquarters, Li Yunlong asked the soldiers of the new regiment to take a rest.
Since returning here, they have rested during the day and traveled at night because they were afraid of being discovered by the Japanese.
"We are now less than ten miles away from the brigade headquarters, and we are finally back." Staff Officer Zhong breathed a sigh of relief. It took more than a month to go to Wuhan, and we are finally back here.
"Yes, it's a pity that many soldiers will stay there forever." Deputy Commander Qian sighed. They sacrificed four to five hundred soldiers there.
Including the seriously injured soldiers who will need to go to the hospital to recuperate later, it is equivalent to the new regiment losing 700 to 800 people at once, which is considered the last serious injury.
"There is no other way, how about a war? There is no one who is not dead. How can one call it a war if one is not dead?" Although Staff Zhong was also heartbroken, this did not change anything.
The sacrificed soldiers can only sleep there forever, and they will be brought back when the war is over.
"Besides, we went there this time and killed so many Japs. We have effectively eliminated the Japs' active forces, which is already very good." Staff Officer Zhong continued.
To help Wu County rescue the siege, they killed nearly a Japanese regiment leader and even killed the Japanese brigade leader. This was a great victory.
It can be said that all this is very worthwhile.
Deputy Captain Qian nodded, but he still felt a little pity in his heart.
"Old Zhong, Lao Qian, what are you doing? Hurry up and keep going. Let's go to the brigade headquarters early and return to the base to rest early." Li Yunlong came over and said.
"Yes" the two nodded.
Soon, a new group set off again.
It’s almost seven o’clock in the morning, brigade headquarters.
The brigadier has woken up and is washing in the yard.
Qin Yuanxin hurried in.
"Brigade Commander, the new regiment has returned and is now less than three miles away from the brigade headquarters," Qin Yuanxin said hurriedly.
"What's back? Go and inform the political commissar." The brigade commander also became happy and quickly asked Qin Yuanxin to tell the political commissar what happened.
"This kid didn't even send a telegram to me when he came back," the brigade commander laughed and scolded. When Li Yunlong asked him where he was, he always said it would be soon.
The brigade commander quickly washed up and wiped his face with a towel. The political commissar also came over.
"Brigade Commander, that guy Li Yunlong is really back," the political commissar said.
"Well, let's go and pick up the boy at the entrance of the village." The brigade commander said, if it weren't for the fact that Li Yunlong suffered a lot when he went to Wuhan this time, and wanted him to pick up Li Yunlong, just dream about it. .
"Go and pick it up in person. When that kid sees it, his tail will be raised to the sky." The political commissar said with a smile.
"Let him have fun first, I will take care of him later." The brigade commander said, and the two left.Open your residence and walk towards the entrance of the village.
Not long after waiting, a new group of people appeared in front of them.
Looking at the new regiment, which had been reduced in number, the brigade commander also had a heavy look on his face. Although Li Yunlong responded to the telegram by saying that the battle was a victory, he did not elaborate on the casualties.
Now it seems that the new regiment still suffered a lot of casualties.
"Li Yunlong, the leader of the new regiment, has met the brigade commander and the political commissar." Li Yunlong ran to the brigade commander and saluted the two.
The brigade commander saluted Li Yunlong solemnly.
"Brigadier Commander, in this mission, the New Regiment lived up to expectations and successfully completed the mission," Li Yunlong said seriously.
"Well, you did a good job, thank you for your hard work." It was rare that the brigade commander did not scold Li Yunlong.
Counselor Zhong and Deputy Commander Qian also came over to salute.
"Let the soldiers move the supplies to the warehouse and then go to rest. Let's go to the conference room and you, boy, tell me about this battle." said the brigade commander.
"It's the brigade commander." Li Yunlong said.
The few people walked towards the village like this, and soon they arrived at the conference room. The brigade commander even poured a glass of water for them, which made them feel a little flattered.
"Thank you for your hard work these days." The brigade commander looked at several people.
Although he did not go there, he could imagine that the soldiers had to overcome a lot in order to fight.
"It's not hard work." Li Yunlong and the others shook their heads. They were all fighting Japanese invaders, so it would not be the same wherever they went.
"Tell me carefully about the battle you fought in Wu County." the brigade commander ordered.
"Yes" Li Yunlong nodded, and then talked about the war situation in Wu County, from helping Wu County to rescue the siege at the beginning, to sneaking up on the Japanese troops and attacking the dock, one after another, Li Yunlong was all Speak up.
The brigade commander just listened quietly without interrupting until Li Yunlong stopped.
"According to what you said, the commander of Wu County seems to be quite dissatisfied with the national army." The brigade commander sensed an opportunity.
"That's not the case. If it were me, I would be equally dissatisfied. It is not their mission to defend Wu County.
It was the national army who forcibly assigned them to defend Wu County. Forget it, they won’t even change their guns.
The thing in their hands is called a gun at best, but it’s called a fire stick at worst." Li Yunlong said directly.
If he had not been worried about the heavy casualties in Wu County at that time, Li Yunlong would not have rushed over so quickly to provide support.
It can be said that the weapons in the hands of the Sichuan army are worse than those used by their ordinary troops.
"What do you think of Zhao Chengxu?" the brigade commander asked.
"He is a man. He knew that he could not defend Wu County, but he still defended it for the sake of the people." Li Yunlong thought for a while and replied.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that when those people above sent the Sichuan Army to defend Wu County, they did not even think that Wu County could be defended. They simply asked the Sichuan Army to die.
But the Sichuan Army chose to defend Wu County for the sake of the people of Wu County. Such an army deserves respect.
"Yes." The brigade commander nodded. Some things need to be done by someone after all.
"Then Brigadier Zhao said something to me before, saying that if one day, the Japanese are driven out, as long as I ask him, he will go through fire and water without hesitation." Li Yunlong said.
"Oh, he really said that." The brigade commander was stunned.
"Yes." Li Yunlong nodded.
"Don't let other people know about this, understand." the brigade commander warned.
"Yes" Li Yunlong said.
"By the way, where is Dr. Miyagawa you mentioned in the telegram?" the brigade commander asked. Since this Japanese doctor is willing to come to their side to help, he is still very welcome.
After all, the Eighth Route Army is in short supply of doctors, and the Japanese doctors are very skilled in medicine. With such doctors, many injured soldiers can survive, which is a good thing.
The only bad thing is that the other party is a Japanese. This can easily arouse the resentment of the soldiers, and the soldiers will need to do some ideological work in the future.
It would be bad if that soldier got mad and killed Dr. Miyagawa.
"Old Zhong, call Dr. Miyagawa over and let the brigade commander see him." Li Yunlong said.
"Yes" Staff Officer Zhong stood up and left. Not long after, he found Dr. Miyagawa.
"Doctor Miyagawa, our brigade commander wants to see you, come with me." Staff Officer Zhong said.
After hearing this, Dr. Miyagawa was still a little scared. After all, he knew what those people in the empire had done in China.
This Eighth Route Army brigade commander will not kill him, but now he has come and cannot leave even if he wants to.
"Okay." Dr. Miyagawa nodded and followed Staff Officer Zhong with uneasiness in his heart.
Soon, Staff Officer Zhong brought Dr. Miyagawa to the conference room.
"The brigade commander's doctor brought it." Staff Officer Zhong said.
When the brigade commander saw this, he quickly stood up and came to Dr. Miyagawa.
"You must be Dr. Miyagawa. I heard from Li Yunlong that you saved many of our soldiers. Thank you very much." said the brigade commander.
"You're welcome. It's a doctor's duty to save lives and heal the wounded." Dr. Miyagawa replied quickly.
"Don't be nervous. It's my attention that asked you to come over. Please sit down." The brigade commander saw the other party's nervousness.
"I, I'd better not sit down." Dr. Miyagawa swallowed.
"Damn it, I asked you to sit down, there is so much nonsense." Li Yunlong said directly, why is this little devil so annoying?
"What did Li Yunlong say?" the brigade commander shouted softly.
Li Yunlong was so frightened that he quickly shut up.
"You really don't have to be afraid. We won't do anything to you. Sit down first and let's have a good chat." The brigade commander told Dr. MiyagawaSheng smiled.
Seeing this, Dr. Miyagawa became less nervous and sat down.
The brigade commander sat down opposite him and said, "I heard that Dr. Miyagawa doesn't like war, right?"
"Well, few of us ordinary people like war. , I know that the empire has done a lot of outrageous things in China,
But there are still many people in the empire who are opposed to the war,
Just like me, I originally didn’t I was willing to come to China, but the empire threatened me with my family and forced me to come," Dr. Miyagawa said.
Not everyone agrees when the empire launches a war. There are still a small number of people who are unwilling, but it is of no use.
"I see, then are you willing to stay in the Eighth Route Army to help?" the brigade commander asked.
"Yes, yes." Dr. Miyagawa nodded directly.
“You don’t have to answer so quickly. Listen to me first. Even if you don’t want to, I won’t do anything to you.
On the contrary, I will send you back. Troops, so I hope you think about it carefully and say it again,” the brigade commander said.
He hopes that the other party will stay sincerely, rather than staying because his life is threatened.
Dr. Miyagawa fell silent, and then replied with firm eyes, "I am willing to stay and help you rescue the wounded. The people here are still very good."
He felt The Eighth Route Army is quite good, just like Li Yunlong. Although he is full of foul words, he is a very good person.
"Dr. Miyagawa, welcome to join us" the brigade commander smiled.
The Eighth Route Army has a doctor with excellent medical skills. In the future, more soldiers will survive. This is a good thing.
"Thank you, Brigadier" Dr. Miyagawa also said.
"You're welcome." The brigade commander shook his head and said to the political commissar, "Take Dr. Miyagawa to the hospital to meet Lao Chen, and send two soldiers from the special operations company to protect Dr. Miyagawa."< /p>
"Yes" the political commissar nodded, but he hesitated and said, "I'm afraid they won't agree if I let the soldiers of the special operations company protect me."
The soldiers of the special operations company are here to begin with. The one who protects the brigade commander suddenly transfers two people to protect others, and he is still a Japanese. I am afraid that the special operations company will not agree.
"Call Qin Yuanxin in and I will tell him personally." said the brigade commander.
The arrival of Dr. Miyagawa will easily cause dissatisfaction among the soldiers. To prevent them from making mistakes, it would be best to be protected by soldiers from the special operations company.
Moreover, the soldiers of the special battle company are sent here, firstly, to protect Dr. Miyagawa, and secondly, to keep an eye on Dr. Miyagawa. If the other party has any other purpose, they can immediately aware.
It is impossible for the brigade commander to completely trust a Japanese. Once something goes wrong, the impact will be great, so for the brigade commander, it is better to be safer. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
