Liu Hua's murderous intent
Every move of the Japanese Kwantung Army's troops dispatched to the south, without any surprise, fell into the eyes of the 63rd Division reconnaissance troops around them. So, just as hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops were desperately trying to break out of the encirclement, one letter after another about
Telegrams of the specific movements of the Japanese troops have been transmitted via radio waves to the headquarters of the East China Field Army in Nanjing City.
At this moment, Liu Hua, as commander-in-chief, was listening to a detailed report from Chief of Staff Zuo Quan on the heavy casualties caused by the Japanese troops to various units of the East China Field Army before they broke through.
"Commander-in-Chief, the Sixth Corps suffered a total loss of more than 5,000 people. The Seventh Corps suffered the most serious losses due to its defense of Wuchang and the Kwantung Army's 100,000 elite troops dispatched southward. Added together, it lost a full reorganized main force.
Division. The Eighth Corps lost more than 6,000 men, and the Ninth Corps lost more than 7,000 men..."
"According to statistics, various units faced the unexpected breakthrough of the Japanese army and lost a total of more than 36,000 troops. In addition, the entire battle was almost hand-to-hand combat, so among these losses, the proportion of soldiers killed in action was particularly high. The total
More than 15,400 officers and men died, including one division commander, three deputy division commanders, and four division political commissars. As for regiment-level cadres lost, a staggering 34 people were lost. As for battalion-level cadres, preliminary statistics include,
There are more than 130 people. It can be said that in just half an hour of fighting, our East China Field Army suffered the heaviest loss since the formation of the army..."
After hearing the report from the Chief of Staff, Liu Hua had never suffered such huge losses and sacrificed so many soldiers in a battle since he led the army. His eyes were already red with anger. He clenched his hands tightly.
He pointed his fist at Zuo Quan in front of him, suppressing the anger in his heart, and asked in a deep voice.
"Where is the Japanese army? We have lost so many people. What about the losses of the Japanese army? So far, how many Japanese soldiers are left who have broken through from our hands?"
"Because several of the battles were the bloodiest hand-to-hand combat, and the Japanese army held a large number of our civilians in their hands. Our various advantages in troops and weapons, including the most important advantage in firepower, could not be used at all. And
The remaining 200,000 Japanese troops who faced us were almost all veterans of hundreds of battles who had survived several years of bloody battles... Therefore, in this kind of hand-to-hand combat in which human lives were exchanged for human lives, these rich and hard-working
In front of the experienced old Japanese, our soldiers cannot take any advantage at all."
Seeing the face of Commander-in-Chief Liu Hua in front of him, a look of pain immediately flashed because of his answer. Zuo Quan changed the topic and continued to speak.
"However, Commander-in-Chief, don't worry too much. Fortunately, our troops made a major replenishment of their active equipment before the war, that is, during the negotiation process with the Japanese army, and equipped the troops with a large number of semi-automatic rifles.
Before the war, the equipment ratio of the "Zhonghua Type 1" semi-automatic rifles in the entire army reached the level of three for each infantry squad. In hand-to-hand combat, this semi-automatic rifle that does not require pulling the bolt made up for the shortcomings of our army's hand-to-hand combat.
Regret."
"Under such an advantage, after several hand-to-hand battles, we did not suffer too much loss. After preliminary statistics, the ratio of losses between the enemy and ourselves was almost one to one. As for the current remaining strength of the Japanese breakout force, according to the information sent by various reconnaissance units
The latest intelligence shows that in the entire Lianghu area, the Japanese breakout force has less than 190,000 troops left. In addition, these Japanese troops have taken a total of about 100,000 civilians and broke out with them..."
"Less than 190,000 people, good, very good..." After saying this, a sneer appeared on Liu Hua's lips.
"Commander-in-Chief, what do you mean..." Seeing Liu Hua's expression, a bad premonition immediately appeared on Zuo Quan's face. He quickly asked.
"Chief of Staff, I believe that every one of these 190,000 Japanese troops bears the blood debt of countless Chinese people. What's more, before he died, he caused us losses of more than 30,000 people. For
This revenge must be avenged by me, Liu Hua, and the entire East China Field Army. What's more, these 190,000 Japanese troops did not even spare ordinary people, but even captured them as hostages. It can be called
He is so insane that he is worse than an animal. Chief of Staff, am I right?" Liu Hua did not answer immediately, but asked with a sneer to the Chief of Staff Zuo Quan in front of him.
Seeing that Chief of Staff Zuo Quan did not hesitate at all, he nodded directly in agreement. Then, facing himself, when he seemed to want to say something, Liu Hua said directly: "Chief of Staff, regarding the question I just asked, you just want to say something."
Just nod your head. Since you agree with what I just said, I hope you will not object to my next order."
Having said this, a strong murderous look appeared on Liu Hua's face.
"Chief of Staff, now I am giving a killing order to all combat units: For the 190,000 Japanese troops who have broken through the two lakes area, in the future battles, each combat unit does not need to leave any combat prisoners. Listen clearly, these ten
Among the 90,000 Japanese troops, I, Liu Hua, do not need any prisoners. I only want their heads to be buried with the soldiers and common people who died under the iron heel of the Japanese army in several years of war..."
Facing Liu Hua's murderous order, the entire office immediately fell into a deathly silence. Chief of Staff Zuo Quan opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something. However, seeing the expression on Liu Hua's face
With a strong murderous aura, after opening his mouth, he still closed his mouth helplessly...
One minute, two minutes... There was a silence of five minutes in the entire office.
Seeing the murderous look on the face of Commander-in-Chief Liu Hua in front of him, it still has not diminished in any way. Thinking about the hundreds of thousands of ordinary people still in the hands of the Japanese army, they may be killed at any time because of this order from the Commander-in-Chief. Zuo Quan, as an old partner, of course
He didn't want to see Liu Hua in front of him become a criminal in history because of his own impulsiveness. After a brief reflection, he spoke directly to remind him without any hesitation.
"Commander-in-Chief, I very much agree with your order just now. These 190,000 little devils who are worse than animals will only waste food if they are left in the world. It is better to kill them all and fertilize our land."
Seeing Commander-in-Chief Liu Hua, the murderous look on his face slowly faded because of his answer. Chief of Staff Zuo Quan changed the topic and said immediately: "Just, Commander-in-Chief, have you ever thought about it?"
The 100,000 ordinary people still in the hands of the Japanese army... We cannot allow these 100,000 ordinary people to be buried with these little devils because of our own impulse and anger. By then, not only us, but also the entire field army will become the sinners of the Chinese people...
.”
Liu Hua seemed to have been mentally prepared for Zuo Quan's rhetorical question. After a quick sneer flashed across his face, he said confidently: "Chief of Staff, you can rest assured about these 100,000 people. Just now, from
In your report, I have come up with specific solutions. Now, the only thing I am missing is a problem of timing."
Having said this, a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of Liu Hua's mouth.
Seeing the smile on Liu Hua's face, he thought of Liu Hua's answer just now. The nervous look on Zuo Quan's face disappeared immediately. Because of their partnership for several years, he knew clearly that as long as the commander-in-chief in front of him said something, then
It must be possible. Then, he asked with a relaxed look.
"Commander-in-Chief, if that's the case, then I'm relieved. Look, in order to avoid overstimulating the 190,000 Japanese troops, the order you just gave was postponed..."
"Okay..." Liu Hua replied affirmatively. Then, he once again set his eyes on the huge combat sand table and continued to give orders to the chief of staff in front of him.
"Chief of Staff, it is not only the 200,000 people in our East China Field Army who are breaking through now, but also the 400,000 people on other battlefields. We cannot ignore these 400,000 people. Please contact the Central Military Commission immediately and hope that the Central Military Commission will
We can be informed of all the situations on several other battlefields. In addition, we can also send all the specific response measures of our East China Field Army to the central government. I hope these measures can play a certain role in the other two battlefields."
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief...I'll go and do it right away..." Seeing the Commander-in-Chief's face, he was once again enveloped in a serious expression. A hint of surprise immediately flashed across Zuo Quan's face, and he answered decisively.
"Wait a minute, while we are paying attention to other battlefields, we must not forget our own battlefield. Pass my order to the Field Army Logistics Office, Recruitment Camp, and Staff Office to take action immediately. In the shortest possible time, all the losses of each unit will be replenished.
Completed. All combat units are required to regain their combat effectiveness within a week..."
"In addition, the reconnaissance troops dispatched by various ministries are ordered to conduct reconnaissance of the Japanese breakout troops 24 hours a day. Regardless of whether something happens or not, they must ensure that a report is made to the headquarters every one hour. Chief of Staff, you
The general staff must mark the movements of the Japanese army on the sand table in front of them as soon as possible..."
"According to the establishment of a U.S. Army division, a standard U.S. Army division will be equipped with at least a thousand submachine guns. The infantry division equipment reinforced by the U.S. military to our army has been gradually shipped to the country according to the plan. I believe that these equipment plus
The equipment stored by the US military in Myanmar contains at least tens of thousands of submachine guns. Immediately send a report to the central government, requesting the central government to mobilize at least 10,000 submachine guns for the East China Field Army in the shortest possible time. I have urgent need..." Looking at the people in front of me.
Liu Hua, who had been fighting for a long time and had a serious look on his face, ordered very decisively.
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief..." Zuo Quan quickly accepted the order and left.
