Chapter 467 Brigadier: Our temple is too small to accommodate this great god (first update)
At ten o'clock in the morning, an exclamation suddenly sounded from the observation port of the independent regiment headquarters: "Commander, the little devils have withdrawn... They are retreating..."
Kong Jie grabbed the telescope and rushed to the observation port...
Three escort fighter jets were hovering over Sato's division, and the forward troops of a squadron had already left their base...
Five minutes after setting off, the remnants of Sato's division began to retreat...
In addition to necessary ammunition supplies, all the extra carts transported the seriously wounded, leaving the station they had held for three days in a mighty manner.
Li Wensheng was overjoyed and said: "Captain, we won..."
"As long as Sato's division retreats, the other two divisions that swept us will also retreat...Northwestern Shanxi will be saved!"
"We should immediately report the good news to the brigade commander, as well as Captain Li and Captain Ding, so that they can also breathe a sigh of relief!"
Kong Jie said very cautiously: "It's not too late, wait a little longer!"
"Send a telegram after you are sure that Sato's division has really retreated... Don't end up rejoicing in vain. If you are killed by the Japanese with a carbine, it will be a big joke!"
At the brigade headquarters, the chief of staff was doing business outside. On the way back, he heard the good news about the retreat of Sato's division.
Before anyone could enter the war room, an excited voice came in: "Brigadier Commander, have you won the counterattack in northwest Shanxi?"
"Yoshio Iwamatsu assembled three divisions to sweep through northwest Shanxi. Sato's division was severely damaged and retreated. The other two divisions will definitely retreat without a fight. Then the crisis facing the base area in northwest Shanxi will be lifted!"
The brigade commander did not hide the good news, and took out the telegram that had just been sent by the Independent Regiment: "Kong Jie reported: The remnants of the Sato Division have retreated nearly 20 kilometers under the cover of aircraft, and there is no tendency to continue to attack the Independent Regiment...
…”
"Moreover, there are only more than 4,000 remaining members of Sato's division, and the total number of front-line combat troops is less than 3,000!"
"Even if they continue to fight, the independent group is confident that they will be eliminated in two nights!"
"But the Independent Regiment also paid a huge price in this bloody battle!"
"The independent regiment before the war numbered nearly 10,000 people. During the battle, a large number of local troops and captured soldiers were added!"
"Up to now, including the seriously injured, there are less than 2,000 people left in the entire independent regiment, and a total of 10,000 people have been defeated!"
"The ammunition they had saved for several years has been basically used up. Especially the mountain artillery, large-caliber mortars and heavy mountain artillery shells have been almost used up..."
The chief of staff shook his head and comforted: "Brigade commander, I don't think so!"
"The independent regiment did pay a huge price in the counter-mopping up, but their results were even greater."
"With the strength of a main force regiment, a Japanese division is forcibly carried. Although Sato's division is not a first-class main force, their total strength is still 15,000 to 15,000. They also strengthened a tank brigade, a heavy artillery brigade, and a
The overall combat effectiveness of the cavalry brigade is not much worse than that of a first-class division!"
"Faced with such a powerful force, the Independent Regiment not only defended its base, but also severely damaged its opponents, forcing them to retreat..."
"No matter how you analyze it, this is an unprecedented victory!"
"besides……"
"The Sato Division used a large number of poison gas bombs during the battle, causing a large number of casualties to the independent regiment!"
"Not only did our independent regiment not collapse because of this, but it became stronger and stronger as we fought, and finally turned defeat into victory, breaking the poison gas war that the Japanese were proud of!"
The chief of staff became more and more excited as he talked, but no matter how he analyzed it, the solemn expression on the brigade commander's face never changed.
He couldn't help but ask: "Brigadier, are there any other situations?"
"The Independent Regiment has won such a huge victory, why is there no reaction at all?"
"Look at this telegram!" the brigade commander took out another telegram and reported.
The chief of staff glanced at ten lines and quickly read the contents of the telegram. The smile on his face froze at the same time. He slapped him on the table and said angrily: "Shameless... The little devil is so shameless. How can they be so shameless?"
conditions of!"
"I have been fighting for so long, and I have never seen such a shameless opponent!"
"Brigadier...we must not agree to the brazen conditions of the little devil!"
"Not only cannot Kong Jie be punished, but he must also be rewarded and promoted..."
"What are you yelling about...calm down!" the brigade commander reminded with a frown.
"The conditions proposed by the little devil are indeed shameless... There is no reason why only Zhou officials are allowed to set fires and the common people are not allowed to light lamps!"
"But they are so powerful that they threaten us with gas bombs!"
"A unit as strong as the Independent Regiment suffered heavy casualties in the poison gas war. If the Japs also used poison gas bombs against other anti-Japanese armed forces in Shanxi, our losses would definitely be unprecedented!"
"In order to prevent the Japanese from using poison gas bombs on a large scale in Shanxi, we have to agree to their shameless conditions!"
"To put it bluntly, Kong Jie and Huang Yu violated the rules by using poison gas bombs illegally during the battle, and they should be punished!"
The chief of staff was still very unconvinced: "Even if we are punished, it should be punished by us. What does it have to do with the little Japanese? It is also stipulated that Kong Jie must be transferred from the front-line troops. How can there be such a reason!"
"This is simply an act of banditry!"
"I don't believe that the little devil dares to risk the disapproval of the world and use poison gas bombs on a large scale in Shanxi..."
"Aren't they worried that they will be sanctioned by other countries after the news spreads?"
The brigade commander shook his head and said helplessly: "Do you think the Japanese care about those so-called sanctions?"
"Would anyone be willing to risk offending the Japanese to speak for us?"
The chief of staff was anxious and asked quickly: "What should we do? Is it true that the little devil wants to transfer a meritorious official from the front-line army...and also demote him!"
The brigade commander replied helplessly: "That old Japanese Yoshio Iwamatsu not only took the opportunity to put pressure on us, but also put a lot of pressure on the war zone!"
"In order to calm the anger of the Japanese and prevent them from using poison gas bombs on the frontal battlefield, the war zone also sent us an order to punish Kong Jie!"
"If it's just the little devils who threaten us, we can still find a way to resist them!"
"Now that orders have come from the war zone, our last bit of room for compromise is gone!"
"After the chief found out about Kong Jie's use of poison gas bombs in the battle, he was also very angry!"
"Although we took a preemptive strike and claimed that those gas bombs were detonated by ordinary artillery shells, it cannot change the fact that Kong Jie disobeyed orders!"
"Coupled with the fact that the war zone and the Japanese are putting pressure on us, the chief decided to fulfill the Japanese wishes!"
"It can not only prevent the Japanese from using poison gas bombs on a large scale on the battlefield, but also protect Kong Jie!"
"In this counter-mopping up campaign, Kong Jie once again made a splash!"
"The old saying goes well: People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong...Kong Jie is such a troublesome guy on the front line. Transferring him to the rear to put out fires and then returning to the front line will not only reduce the attention of the Japanese to him, but also benefit his career."
growing up!"
"An all-round commander must not only be able to mount a horse to kill the enemy, but also be able to dismount and take care of things!"
The chief of staff thought for a while and asked: "The chief will not want to transfer Kong Jie to the quilt factory as the director like Li Yunlong did!"
The brigade commander shook his head: "The director of the quilt factory is too talented!"
"For the independent regiment to have its current combat effectiveness, sufficient equipment and supplies play a big role."
"It can be seen that he is very talented in handling supplies and equipment. Even Li Yunlong may not be able to compare with him!"
"The chief's meaning is very simple: Even if Kong Jie is transferred to the rear, he must give full play to his strengths and not waste talents!"
After hearing this, the chief of staff became even more curious. Looking at the brigade commander's face full of expectation, he asked: "The commander doesn't want to transfer Kong Jie to the brigade headquarters' logistics department as the director!"
"The Logistics Department of the Brigade Headquarters is a regiment-level organization. Transferring him here is a level transfer. Comrade Kong Jie will definitely not have any objections."
The brigade commander shook his head: "Our temple is too small, I'm afraid it won't be able to accommodate the great god Kong Jie!"
"After the counter-mopping campaign in northwestern Shanxi ends... there will be no major wars in northwestern Shanxi for a long time to come!"
"Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, Ding Wei... are not the kind of commanders who stay in place. It would be a waste of talent for the three of them to gather in northwest Shanxi..."
"The chief's idea is very simple. As long as northwest Shanxi stabilizes, we must separate the three of them and leave one person to take charge of northwest Shanxi!"
"Kong Jie is the first regiment commander to be transferred... He is likely to be transferred from our brigade or even our division in the future..."
"Do you think a talent so favored by the chief will serve as the director of the post-processing department in our brigade?"
