Chapter three hundred and eighteen the end of the Nanchang war
When the shouts of killing in Gaoshanlin stopped, 42 hours had passed since the main force of the Youth Army had evacuated.
Qingshui Xizhong patrolled the battlefield with a solemn expression. The corpses of the Japanese army and the National Army were stacked on top of each other. I am among you, and you are among me. Many people died together. From time to time, you can see a circle of bombs.
The charred corpses were the result of someone pulling a grenade and being blown up. Blood flowed everywhere, and small lakes of blood even appeared in low-lying areas. The words "Blood Flood" appeared in Qingshui Xizhong's mind.
Suddenly, Qingshui Xizhong heard a cry and quickly asked, "What's going on?"
"Report, a living Chinese officer was found, and we are preparing to capture him." A staff officer replied after inquiring.
"Then let's take the prisoners. Can't we catch even one person?" Qing Shui Xizhong asked sharply.
"This... that man is very tenacious. He just killed another one of our soldiers." The staff officer lowered his head and said, "But he is the only Chinese soldier alive, so we still want to capture him alive."
"Let's go and have a look." As he said that, Qingshui Yizhong walked to the middle of the circle of people. His eyes widened suddenly. He was horrified to see a pile of corpses one or two meters high, surrounded by a big tree.
, a young army officer held a half-remaining military flag, leaned against a tree, and looked down at the Japanese troops surrounding him.
"Surrender quickly. You are the only one left now. You can't escape. Put down your weapons quickly. The imperial army will give preferential treatment to the prisoners." The translator shouted loudly, but the man seemed not to hear him.
at every turn.
"Is he dead?" Qing Shui asked softly.
"I'm just too lazy to talk to dogs." The officer frowned and said, with veins popping out on his hands, as if he was enduring something.
"What's your name? What's your position and unit?" Kishige asked, and the translator next to him immediately translated.
"I am Ye Qing, commander of the 1st Battalion of the 3rd Regiment of the 201st Division of the Youth Army! Who is the barking dog below?" Ye Qing slowly started to move, with the military flag supporting his body from falling down.
"I am Shimizu Yishige, the commander of the 116th Division. You are excellent and are real soldiers. Surrender and I will ensure that you become a division commander." Shimizu Yoshizhong looked at Ye Qing, who was covered in blood and full of murderous intent, and couldn't help but move.
Love of talent.
"Hahahaha, since ancient times, only dogs have surrendered to humans. There is no reason for anyone to surrender a dog. Isn't it just to take my life? Take it from our Youth Army... the National Army... There are thousands of Ye Qings in China.
, they wanted to take your life for me, but it’s a pity that I don’t have a grenade around me, otherwise I would still have you making noise here?” Ye Qing said as he spat out a mouthful of blood. He was already seriously injured and could only hold in his breath.
It's just there.
"Oh? Want to die? I'm afraid it's not up to you." A cold voice came, and a group of Japanese soldiers dressed in strange clothes came over.
Looking at this army, Ye Qing's eyes widened, not because of anything else, but because this army looked so much like the guard that escorted him abroad, with camouflage uniforms, steel helmets and short rifles, and expressionless soldiers.
He had seen it once and didn't know whose army it was, but this strange feeling would remain in his heart forever.
"Huh? You seem to know something. Very good, catch him alive." The leading officer smiled and waved his hand, and the two figures rushed forward quickly.
Ye Qing knew that this was an attempt to capture him alive, and he did know something that could not be revealed. Ye Qing took out a bayonet and stabbed himself in the chest. The bayonet penetrated his flesh, and in the severe pain, Ye Qing felt a kind of relief.
"Well, you're not good. I didn't let you die. How could you die on your own?" Ye Qing suddenly found that his hand seemed to be clamped by an iron clamp and could no longer move. Two Japanese soldiers used their hands to
Holding on tightly to himself, the Japanese officer slowly walked up, twisting his body as if dancing, which was indescribably weird.
"Who are you?" Ye Qing asked loudly.
"Haha, I'm rude. My name is Takeshita Shigeo. I am a major in the Takeshita Fighting Team of the Imperial Japanese Army. I am directly affiliated with the base camp." As he spoke, Takeshita Shigeo turned back to the dissatisfied Shimizu Kishige and said, "General Shimizu, this
We have to take the person away, sorry."
Qing Shuixi gritted his teeth, glanced at Ye Qing pitifully, and stomped away. The staff officer next to him quickly followed up and asked, "Your Excellency, the division commander, he is just a major, why should we be afraid of him?"
Qingshui looked at the staff officer again and said, "It's very simple. This major has just beheaded the National Army General Chen Anbao. Anyone who fights with him at this time will definitely be considered by the base camp as suppressing the talented. That's all, let's go."
What a pity for this brave man."
--Ganzhou
**** looked at the telegram and felt a sweetness in his throat. He tried his best to hold it down for a while and guessed that Wang Sheng next to him asked, "We just retreated like this? Such a big battle in Nanchang ended in such an anticlimactic manner?"
"
Wang Sheng nodded and said, "Our youth army suffered heavy casualties in this battle. Hu Lian came to report that of the 20,000 people who were pulled up, less than 4,000 were intact. Even if we include those who returned to the army after recovering from their injuries, they would not be injured."
There are more than 8,000 people, especially the officers, because everyone is fighting for the lead, the casualty rate is very high."
****** vented his anger on Xue Yue, the commander of this battle, and cursed loudly, "One general is incompetent and the three armies are exhausted. Now I fully understand what incompetent people are. Our people are better than the Japanese army."
There were so many more, and the Japanese army's logistics line was cut off, and yet they still fought like this, losing their troops and losing ground. Such a general should be pulled down and shot."
Wang Sheng quickly covered ******'s mouth, looked back and saw no one else and said, "Sir, this Xue Yue is the commander of the military region after all, and his official position is much higher than yours. Although you have a special status, you can't scold him."
*** was so anxious that he wanted to jump up, but the pain from the wound made him lie down on the bed and said, "I'm anxious and angry. Look at Yan'an in the north. It's a winning streak. What about us?"
?We are losing at every step. What do the people think? What do the troops think? They are all the same Chinese, and their main officers are also from Baoding and Huangpu. How come they can win the battle but we can't? In my opinion, it is still the commander's.
The question is, no... If we continue like this, we will be in danger. We must be severely punished. Failure to punish will not boost the morale of the army. And there is Liu Duoquan. Doesn’t Xue Yue know that he has always been at odds with the Chairman? This reinforcements
After a long time, I think they did it on purpose. These warlords just can't stand having soldiers who are not their own in their jurisdiction. I want to file a lawsuit against them."
Wang Sheng tried his best, but a telegram was sent to Chongqing and landed on the desk of Jiang's agent.
"The first crime is loss of city and territory, the second crime is improper command, the third crime is ineffective rescue, the fourth crime is unclear investigation, the fifth crime is incompetence in running the army, and the sixth crime..."
"That's enough!" Jiang Jie stood up suddenly and cursed, "Damn it, Niang Xipi, what does he think of himself? Does he really think of himself as a general when he is asked to take care of a young army? He still fails to rescue, does he still want to teach him?
How does Xue Yue fight? Does he still remember his identity? He is not a general. If he wants to be a general, I will give him a gun and go to the front line! Niang Xipi’s bastard
, It’s outrageous!”
Chen Brai did not dare to say that Jiang Jie had scolded him, so he laughed softly and said, "Young Master is also very patriotic and has a good heart."
Agent Jiang glared at him and said, "What I'm afraid of is not that I don't have the ability to do well, but that I'm afraid of doing something wrong despite being so capable. Send me a message and scold me... Forget it, I'll write a letter and give it to me right away."
Airdrop to Ganzhou!"
"As a ruler, you should not think about the gains and losses of a city or a place, or the victory or defeat of an army or a division. Victories and losses can be reversed, and gains and losses can be changed. Where to go, you have to think about it yourself."
****** looked at this and didn't think about it for a long time.
At this time, Wang Sheng came over and said with a smile, "Young Master, I really have you. I thought you really wanted to send a message to demand punishment for Xue Yue and Liu Duoquan. It turned out that you were asking for credit for them. Look at what you wrote and said
Liu Duoquan's reinforcements were not only due to the unfavorable weather, but also beyond the reach of manpower. Liu Duoquan's troops have been traveling through mountains and rivers, and they have already worked extremely hard. We must not hurt the morale of the army and chill the general's will. Now the public opinion is saying that you are selfless and that we are here to make peace between the general and the prime minister.
Look, this is Xue Yue’s letter of thanks and Liu Duoquan’s letter of thanks.”
******'s eyes widened, and he looked carefully at the secret letter given to him by Jiang Jie. He suddenly understood that ****** had studied dialectics after all, and the outcome could be decisive.
The eight characters "turn, gain and loss can change" seemed to grow infinitely and flew into his mind.
"This...is this a good thing he did? The blood of more than 10,000 soldiers of our young army was shed in vain? They did not take credit for their contributions, but instead took credit for the defeat of the defeated general. What kind of logic is this?"
Although ****** understands that Jiang Jie is doing this for his own good, indeed, it can gain the favor of Xue Yue and Liu Duoquan, and can also add sand to the army in the name of replenishing troops, but he ****
After all, he is not a Jiang agent. He cannot be so cold-blooded and ruthless.
****** suddenly felt sad. He suddenly felt that he was not suitable to be a politician, and his blood was still warm.
"Commissioner, Mr. Jiang's telegram." Zhang Yaruo came in with a telegram and said.
****** took it and took a look. The main message on it was to comfort ****** not to be depressed. The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression cannot be fought in one or two battles. The young army has been tempered through this battle.
It is time to continue working hard and sum up the lessons learned. He also said that because of this battle, the name of the Youth Army has spread overseas. He has recruited many overseas Chinese young people who are willing to return to China, and they are on their way there one after another.
****** felt warm in his heart and nodded. This was the outcome in his heart that could change the outcome. ****** closed his eyes and silently said in his heart, "Father, I can never become
You, the path I want to take is my own path... Time will prove that your feudal rule of thousands of years will not work. People's hearts are not bought, but gained by the things they do.
of."
The Battle of Nanchang ended. Okamura Neiji was firmly seated in Nanchang City, and the safety of the Yangtze River waterway was guaranteed. Chiang Kai-shek in Chongqing was worried about the upcoming secret peace talks in Hong Kong, and was thinking about how to check and balance Yan'an.
In Germany, Jiang Cheng got his first big order from an arsenal.
"Master, we have equipment for 50,000 people. This order is enough for us to eat for a while." Chen Nan said happily.
Jiang Cheng said disdainfully to Chen Nan, "This is just the beginning. Although Goering valued our weapons, these 50,000 people were just what he planned to equip for the air force and paratroopers. After Goering equipped them, the Germans discovered that we had equipped them."
The advantage is, the big order is at the back."
Chen Nan quickly said yes, and Jiang Cheng continued, "Order the factory to increase horsepower production, and also speed up the research and development of our engines and other things."
After Chen Nan agreed, Jiang Cheng let Chen Nan leave and traveled back to modern times to once again transport machinery, equipment and supplies to Shanxi.
——Taiyuan
Yan Xishan looked at the battle report and shook his head and said, "What a pity. At first, I thought Nanchang would become the second provincial capital to be recaptured."
Mr. Zhu nodded and said, "It is indeed a pity, but we do not have a navy and are extremely passive on large rivers. We can only defend ourselves against enemies with mines and other weapons."
Boss Peng looked down on Xue Yue and said, "This Xue Yue is careless. He must have been stunned by Wanjialing. He must not have known about Okamura Neji's big move. This battle is like Lu Meng's white-clothed crossing the river."
ah."
Zuo Quan agreed and said, "In order to be a general, you must first treat your heart. If Mount Tai collapses in front of you but your appearance remains unchanged, and a deer thrives on your left but your eyes won't blink, then you can control your interests and wait for the enemy. The Chairman asked us to look in the mirror again and again.
, this is the reason why we should despise the enemy strategically and pay attention to the enemy tactically."
Fu Zuoyi, who was next to him, was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He realized something but said nothing.
Yang Aiyuan said, "General Xue is already a fierce general in our National Army. This is just because Neji Okamura is too cunning."
Mr. Zhu disagreed and said, "What he said is correct, but Xue Yue's carelessness is also true. But I think this Xue Yue is not that Guan Yunchang. He suffered a big loss this time, but was praised by the chairman. I'm afraid he will realize his shame and become brave again. I think
He is Meng Mingshi, Bai Yibing. He will definitely teach the Japanese army a lesson in the future."
Yan Xishan glanced at Mr. Zhu and did not expect that Mr. Zhu would always comment on Xue Yue like this. In the past few months, Yan Xishan and others have no longer resisted. Yan Xishan has repeatedly asked to retire and return to his hometown. Even if he is in charge, he is only willing to
Responsible for education and transportation. Mr. Zhu, Zhou Guansheng and others took turns to persuade him to give up. Mr. Zhu even asked Yan Xishan, Yang Aiyuan and Wei Lihuang to attend every military meeting or major event, and even let Yan Xishan take the chair.
Showing respect. Slowly, the three of them went from saying nothing at first to saying a few words. This change made everyone from Yan'an to Taiyuan let go of the huge stone in their hearts.
Wei Lihuang changed the subject and said, "Having said that, as long as the Japanese navy is not destroyed, it will be too difficult for us to completely win this war."
