Chapter 073 The Chief of Staff is biased (seeking a monthly ticket)
"Captain, the little devils who are chasing us have stopped..." When Kong Jie was enjoying the future while marching, the scout from behind suddenly reported behind him.
"Two thousand Japanese soldiers are camping on the spot to guard us. It seems they have no intention of continuing to hunt us down!"
"Our ability to kill more than a hundred Japanese in three minutes must have frightened the Bantian unit. We were afraid that we would lose a few more infantry squadrons for no reason and did not dare to continue the pursuit!" The smile on Kong Jie's face was thicker than before.
Feeling happy.
"Let everyone maintain the marching speed and continue to retreat, and seize the opportunity before us to completely get rid of the pursuers..."
At the headquarters of the 386th Brigade, the chief of staff rushed in with joy on his face. When he saw the brigade commander, he hurriedly reported: "There is news about the New Regiment and the Independent Regiment!"
"Li Yunlong successfully escaped from the pursuers under the cover of Kong Jie..."
"The Bantian Alliance was severely damaged and is temporarily parked near Cangyun Ridge on standby..."
"Let's be more specific...are the losses of the two regiments big? You just said that the Bantian Regiment was severely damaged...what's going on? Could it be that Li Yunlong and Kong Jie teamed up to defeat the Bantian Regiment?" Brigadier
He was even more anxious than the chief of staff. After hearing the report, he immediately asked questions.
"The losses of the new regiment were a bit heavy... The losses of the independent regiment were not bad... Fortunately, Kong Jie led the independent regiment to attack in time, otherwise Li Yunlong's new regiment would have lost one or two more companies!" the chief of staff quickly handed over what he had received.
Tell the news.
"Did that boy Li Yunlong cause trouble on the battlefield again?" The brigade commander's face darkened upon hearing this, and he asked in a bad tone.
The chief of staff nodded and explained seriously: "The order from the headquarters to the new regiment is to break out in the direction of Cangyunling and get rid of the pursuers with the support of the independent regiment!"
"In the end, Li Yunlong gave us a battlefield to disobey orders!"
"Leading the troops to break out of the encirclement from the front, causing the new regiment to lose an additional infantry company on the way to break through!"
"After Kong Jie found out that Li Yunlong was disobeying his order, he took the initiative to launch an assault on Cangyun Ridge, forcing the Japanese who were chasing the new regiment to return to Cangyun Ridge, otherwise the new regiment would have to lose another company to get rid of the pursuers!"
"Snapped……"
The brigade commander was so angry that he punched the ammunition box next to him and cursed angrily: "I knew that Li Yunlong was a restless master. How long did it take for him to cause such a big disaster for me after we divided our troops?"
"Don't he know that the head of the headquarters is nearby!"
"For disobeying orders on the battlefield in front of the head of the headquarters, I think he really doesn't want the position of leader of the new regiment!"
"I will never say a word for him this time, otherwise I will be sorry for the more than one hundred soldiers who died in the new regiment's frontal breakthrough."
Seeing that the brigade commander was getting more and more angry, the chief of staff quickly comforted him: "Don't be angry yet, just listen to what I have to say!"
"Li Yunlong indeed disobeyed orders on the battlefield, and the New Regiment also sacrificed more than a hundred soldiers because of the frontal breakthrough."
"But compared with their results, we did not suffer a loss!"
"During the frontal breakthrough, Li Yunlong killed the headquarters of the Bantian Regiment with one shot. The commander of the Sakata Regiment, the chief of staff, and several staff officers were killed on the spot, leaving the Sakata Regiment in a leaderless and chaotic situation!"
"The new group took the opportunity to launch a counterattack and killed at least three hundred little Japs!"
"After the remnants of the Bantian Regiment assembled heavy troops to hunt down Li Yunlong, Kong Jie led the independent regiment to take the opportunity to raid Cangyun Ridge and successfully captured the Bantian Regiment's artillery position, heavy machine gun position, field hospital, and train station. They seized a large amount of loot and also captured the pursuers.
The Bantian unit that killed Li Yunlong was forced back and killed nearly a thousand little Japs in one battle!"
"Although most of the Japs are technical troops, they play a very important role in the Sakata Alliance!"
"Killing them is equivalent to pulling out the fangs of the Sakata Regiment and severely weakening their ability to attack critical difficulties."
"Kong Jie is still reliable!" The anger on the brigade commander's face was instantly replaced by a smile, and he praised happily, completely forgetting about Li Yunlong's disobedience on the battlefield.
"Stay behind the battlefield and lurk on standby, keenly seize fighter opportunities, attack decisively, focus on the enemy's weak points and hit them hard, and solve the crisis facing the new regiment in one battle!"
"well played!"
"It's just a pity that they captured the trophies in Cangyun Ridge!"
"The Bantian Wing is equipped with a mountain artillery squadron, three infantry artillery squadrons, three mortar squadrons, and three heavy machine gun squadrons as standard equipment. It is equipped with more than 40 various artillery pieces and more than 30 heavy machine guns!"
"The independent regiment has a limited time to raid Cangyun Ridge, and they still have to find a way to get rid of the Bantian regiment to retaliate against their pursuers. If you want to maintain the marching speed and not be weighed down by the load, you will definitely not be able to bring much loot with you when you retreat!"
Having said this, the brigade commander's face clearly showed a complex expression of helplessness and reluctance.
The chief of staff suddenly laughed and said: "Brigadier Commander, at first I thought the independent regiment wouldn't be able to bring back much loot, but in the end we all underestimated Kong Jie's ability!"
"Not only did he successfully seize the opportunity to launch a decisive attack on Cangyun Ridge, he also brought the mules and horses with him."
"Take down the Japanese artillery positions and let the troops dismantle the artillery into parts and tie them to the backs of mules and horses for transportation..."
"As a result, they brought back all four mountain guns, four infantry guns, eight mortars, and eleven heavy machine guns captured on the battlefield!"
"After the mules and horses became rich, they also brought back the artillery and heavy machine guns that the Japanese army destroyed before they died!"
"The independent regiment also ransacked the Japanese field hospital, rescued several military doctors who were unwilling to sacrifice their lives for the Japanese, and seized a large amount of medicines enough to rescue 1,500 seriously injured people!"
"When they raided the field hospital, they stole all the reserve ammunition carried by the Bantian Regiment's baggage team!"
"All kinds of bullets, artillery shells, grenades...the total adds up to more than 400 boxes!"
"Based on the analysis of the battle results, if Li Yunlong hadn't disobeyed orders on the battlefield, killed the Bantian regiment with one shot, and broke through from the front of Cangyun Ridge, the independent regiment would not have achieved such results!"
The chief of staff is obviously favoring Li Yunlong!
Let’s talk about his disobedience on the battlefield first, and then talk about the huge benefits brought by his disobedience on the battlefield. The rich results immediately calmed the brigade commander’s anger.
Once he is in a good mood, Li Yunlong will be punished much less, and he might even go to the head of the headquarters to intercede and say good things to Li Yunlong.
The brigade commander is a commander with a background in intelligence, and he is very good at observing people's actions.
It had long been known that the chief of staff was helping Li Yunlong out of the siege, overtly or covertly.
He also likes Li Yunlong very much in his heart. He likes to use his brain when fighting, and he likes to take things by surprise and end the battle with the minimum cost.
But I am also worried about Li Yunlong's rebellious nature and his tendency to get into trouble.
During the war, the superiors may cover up some of his minor flaws because he knows how to fight.
When there is no war in the future and there is no one to protect him, these small flaws in his body will be magnified infinitely, bringing great danger to himself.
A qualified soldier must not get used to the habit of disobeying orders on the battlefield.
This time Li Yunlong was lucky and achieved great results by disobeying orders on the battlefield.
I won't have such good luck next time.
Counter-mopping up is not a matter for Li Yunlong's group alone. It requires the cooperation of many troops to win.
Li Yunlong's disobedience on the battlefield was a relief for himself, but it was likely to affect the overall layout of the headquarters' counter-mopping operations.
No matter what aspect he considers, he must stop the evil trend of "disobedience on the battlefield".
