At this time, a combat meeting had begun in the headquarters.
Zhou Wen sat in the main seat and looked at the people in front of him. These people are all the unsung heroes of this era.
"Since the beginning of the Nanjing Defense War, our unit's casualties have reached one-third, ammunition consumption has exceeded one-half, and the first battalion has suffered heavy casualties. The order is: the fourth battalion will take over the first battalion, and the first battalion will temporarily rest and reorganize, and go to the military supplies
Transport supplies back everywhere." Zhou Wendao
"Yes!" Fang Shengli and Fourth Battalion Commander Li Yang stood up, saluted, and sat down again.
"Order: From today on, everyone must defend their positions and not advance lightly." Zhou Wen added that the failure of the Nanjing defense battle was inevitable and he could not change it. So, he could only reduce casualties.
"Order: The mortar company and small artillery company provide artillery support at any time, regardless of ammunition."
"Yes!" The two company commanders saluted and sat down again.
"Okay, does anyone else have any questions?" Zhou Wen asked.
No one answered.
"Then, the meeting is over." After Zhou Wen finished speaking, he greeted Xu Hu and said, "Huzi, go prepare two sets of clothes for the little devil."
"good."
"Weiguo, what are you going to do?" Fang Shengli asked anxiously.
"Yes, leader." The other people also asked.
Zhou Wen smiled and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. How can you still be worried about me?"
"Weiguo, your injury hasn't healed yet."
"It's just that the injury is not healed." Zhou Wen explained, "Look at the daytime, we fought hard with the Japs. Although we suffered heavy casualties, the Japs were not much better. I am injured, isn't it just right?
.”
"Then I'll go with you." Fang Shengli said.
"Yes, Captain, I'll go too." The others said again.
Zhou Wenlue felt a little helpless and said, "You have worked hard during the day. It's enough to rest more and the tiger will follow you. I'll beat the little devil hard tomorrow."
Everyone stopped talking and had no choice but to leave Zhou Weiguo alone.
……Dividing line
It is said that Zhou Wen and Xu Hu reached the vicinity of the Japanese army's position in the dark. After fighting for so many days, the Japanese army was exhausted.
Zhou Wen and Xu Hu turned over and rolled into a far away unmanned trench.
Immediately, Zhou Wen began to shout, "Tas gives it!"
Xu Hu also shouted, he tied a bandage on his hand and Zhou Wen's head.
The two men's shouts attracted the Japanese soldiers.
"Why are you two still on the battlefield?" asked a Japanese soldier.
"I fainted, and when I woke up I realized it was already night. Brother, please help me," Zhou Wen replied.
"You have a Kyoto accent. Are you from Kyoto?"
"Yes. Aligado." Zhou Wen replied. At this time, the little devil had already helped Zhou Wen up, and Xu Hu also stood up.
"Hey, what's your name?" the little devil asked.
"Takahashi Sasaki." Zhou Wen replied, "His name is Suzuki Ichi. What about you?"
"I am Hasegawa Jiubao." The little devil replied, "I will return to the camp in a while. You guys have a good rest."
"kindness."
Met a patrol head on.
"Password!"
"The martial arts will last forever! Reply to the order!" Hasegawa Jiubao replied.
"Co-prosperity in East Asia!" replied the other party, "Why are there still wounded so late? Is there a battle?"
"No, I fainted during the day." Hasegawa Jiubao replied.
"That's it, let's go in."
"Hi!"
After a while, Zhou Wen said, "Thank you, we can just go there by ourselves. You can go back to duty." Then he took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it over.
"That's fine." Hasegawa saw the smoke and said with a smile, "Thanks."
"You're welcome, it's a long night, and the smoke can refresh you." Zhou Wen also smiled. Seeing Hasegawa walking back, Zhou Wen started walking towards the headquarters. Just on the road, Zhou Wen observed the distribution of the Japanese camps. He was also very sure.
The direction of the headquarters.
It's late winter now, and it's already 2 o'clock in the morning. Even the little devils are much less vigilant.
The two Japanese soldiers standing guard outside the headquarters were already sitting on the ground and fell asleep. Not to mention the people inside the headquarters.
Zhou Wen and Xu Hu easily solved the guards at the door, and continued to create the illusion that they were still sleeping, and then walked into the headquarters. When Zhou Wen solved a Japanese soldier, the words War Point +1 appeared in front of his eyes. Then again
Looking at the war points, there are actually 2 points. In other words, the Japanese soldiers Xu Hu killed also count towards his war points.
Unfortunately, only the captain of the second brigade of the 38th Regiment was on duty in the headquarters today, and the rest returned to the headquarters to report on the military situation.
The Japanese captain died in his sleep.
And Xu Hu also eliminated the signal soldiers in the next room.
Immediately, Zhou Wen took a cursory look at the telegrams between the Japanese troops.
"Beast." Zhou Wen then folded a telegram, stuffed it into his pocket, and said, "Huzi, let's go!"
"Hey, good." Xu Hu agreed, and then followed Zhou Wen out of the headquarters. I left quietly, just as I came quietly.
When the two returned to their own headquarters, Zhou Wen had already cursed, "Damn you little devil, was it true that the Nanjing Massacre was premeditated?"
"Commander, what is the Nanjing Massacre?" Xu Hu was puzzled.
Zhou Wen took a deep breath, took out the Japanese telegram he brought back from his pocket, and said, "This is from the captain of the 38th Regiment of the 16th Division of the Japanese Army, Seiji Sekawa, and the division commander of the 16th Division, Nakajima Kinsogo.
In exchanging telegrams, the two men meant that after Nanjing was conquered, the 16th Division would be stationed in Nanjing for one month, and within this month, they would also hold a killing competition."
"What?" Xu Hu was surprised at first, then angry.
Zhou Wen calmed down, and based on the special tasks given by the system, he considered whether to make this telegram public. Of course, it must be made public. He only hoped that this would put some pressure on the Japanese army and make them restrain themselves.
At the same time, it is also hoped that this move can put some pressure on the Nationalist government. During the Nanjing Defense War, most of the Nationalist troops were retired from the Songhu battlefield. Some of the troops were not even replenished. There were about 80,000 trained soldiers.
They also captured 30,000 untrained young men. As for the Japanese army, the total strength was more than 100,000, and they also had the cooperation of sea, land and air. It was really difficult to hold on.
"Huzi, give this telegram to Shengli and ask him to take it to the city, find a newspaper, and then make it public."
"Okay." Xu Hu agreed and took the telegram.
It was already past 4 o'clock, soon to be 5 o'clock, and it was still dark in the depths of winter.
5 o'clock is the time for the first battalion to set off.
"Shengli, everything is left to you." Zhou Wen patted Fang Shengli on the shoulder and said seriously.
"Don't worry." Fang Shengli learned about the telegram and said, "I will be careful."
"Well, go back quickly. The Japanese army has not yet broken through our outer defense lines, so it is still safe. Be careful of Japanese aircraft."
"yes!"
…
After it started to get light, gunfire rang out again.
For a soldier, the battlefield is always the most exciting place, especially a soldier who has received a good military education but does not have many opportunities to practice with real weapons.
When Zhou Wen lay in the trench and fought against the Japanese army with his comrades, Zhou Wen was truly Zhou Weiguo.
"Huzi, let the artillery battery come for support." Zhou Weiguo said to Xu Hu. At this time, his face was already pitch black, the color of soil.
It was very cold, and the hand holding the gun was even numb.
"Yes!" Xu Hu answered and ran back.
At this time, Zhou Weiguo was still working hard to kill the Japanese army, because he had to work hard to save some war points to use in emergencies and exchange them for weapons.
Qixia Mountain cannot be defended for long.
Historically, on December 7, the Japanese army came to the city.
Therefore, Zhou Weiguo believed that tomorrow at the latest, he would receive an order to withdraw to the city to guard Nanjing. Therefore, he sent the First Battalion to transport supplies back, hoping to inflict a heavy blow to the 38th Regiment on the opposite side tonight.
At this time, the Japanese headquarters of the 38th Regiment
"Baga! Bagaya Road!" Seiji Sukegawa burst into flames. The captain of his second brigade was killed when they were away all night.
"Order: Attack, attack, attack!"
"Hi!"
…
"Captain, the kid is so crazy today!" Xu Hu looked at the kid who had rushed up for the third time and said.
"Of course, the one we killed last night was a captain. That old devil Sukegawa Seiji must have gone crazy." Zhou Weiguo said with a smile.
"hey-hey."
…
A newspaper in Nanjing
"What? How dare the Japanese do this?" A middle-aged man wearing glasses shouted at the table.
"Yes, this is a telegram we found from a Japanese soldier." Fang Shengli took out the telegram and reported, "So, I hope your newspaper can make this telegram public."
"On the one hand, we hope to arouse international public opinion and warn the Japanese; second, we hope to inspire the military's determination to defend the land and protect the people."
"Sir, don't worry, I will definitely make this telegram public."
…
"Deputy battalion commander, take everyone to the military supplies department. We will meet near Zhongshan Gate." Fang Shengli said after walking out of the newspaper office.
"yes!"
…
Half an hour later, the photo of the Japanese telegram was circulated among newspapers in Nanjing. At the same time, the content of the telegram also arrived on Chiang Kai-shek's desk. At the same time, leaders as far away as Yan'an also received the news.
.Zhou Weiguo never thought that the contents of this telegram would reach the desks of the leaders of the two parties so quickly.
Today is only December 5th, and Chiang Kai-shek has not left Nanjing yet.
"Nang Xipi, the Japanese dare to do this?" Lao Jiang cursed, "Aren't they afraid of international public opinion?"
"Chairman of the Generalissimo, I humbly believe that the Japanese army did this to scare the monkeys."
"Once Nanjing is captured, there will be tens of thousands of prisoners, and Japan's logistics will be under great pressure."
"Damn it, can Nanjing really not be defended?" Lao Jiang said angrily.
…
"Little devil!" Somewhere in Yan'an, people also started shooting.
"Even though we all know about this telegram, what should we do?" Zhou asked on the side.
"Come here, contact Baldy Jiang!" he said after taking a puff of cigarette.
