After thinking for a long time, Zhou Weiguo sighed, and finally shook his head, "If the Japanese really shrink into their shells, we really have no choice but to beat them rigidly one place after another."
Liu Yuan was also silent.
After a while, Li Weimin knocked on the door, "I said, I really can't hold it in anymore. When Zhou met, he made a fuss about paying homage to several high-level officials, and even aroused public opinion!"
"See for yourselves!" Li Weimin threw several newspapers to Zhou Weiguo and Liu Yuan.
“Can’t the public send off Master Zhou Weiguo?”
"Alas! General Zhou can't find peace after his death?"
Looking at these exaggerated headlines, Zhou Weiguo picked up the newspaper and read it decently, then shook his head helplessly, "Let's wait for the news of the great victory in Xuzhou to come, and then announce it together. However, as long as it is announced,
From now on, it will be even more difficult for us to plot against the Japanese."
"Then train the troops! Expand the recruitment! Conquer the enemy with an upright division!" Li Weimin's face was not good-looking, because these articles were all about whether the remaining people in the independent division were busy fighting for power! I don't care.
What happened behind Zhou Weiguo and the others! In short, what was said in the article was not pleasant at all. He had to bear these accusations, and then Zhou Weiguo and Liu Yuan were still having fun here. Of course he was not happy.
"Eh." Zhou Weiguo sighed, "Since the September 18th Incident, the number of people killed and injured by the devils on our Chinese territory is incalculable. Tens of millions of soldiers and civilians have been harmed. What I want to do is to survive with the fewest casualties.
The premise……"
"We all know." Liu Yuan nodded, "Because we also have the same idea as you, but the Japanese are not so easy to calculate. The Japanese are cunning and were calculated once, the second time, and the third time.
You must be cautious.”
The eyes of Zhou Weiguo and Liu Yuan both darkened, and the plans they had originally planned might be useless.
"I say enough is enough for you two!" Li Weimin looked at the two of them, "The problem now is that you have to think about it. Once the truth is revealed, how will the people see us? If someone takes advantage of public opinion again, then our independent division will
Especially you, Wei Guo, will become the target of public criticism!"
"Let this thing go, what's more, the people will only be angry, and they will only be happy after the news of two great victories." Zhou Weiguo shook his head, "If someone really takes advantage of it, then fight back. Don't believe it yet.
There is no way to fight back."
"You said it easily." Li Weimin was also helpless, "What should we do now? We can only wait?"
"Wait, then."
…
"Sir, why haven't the people from the Independent Division arranged funeral arrangements for General Zhou and the others? According to the weather, in a few days, the body will no longer be visible!" A national soldier beside Zhou Jianshi frowned and said,
"This is too much! If a person dies, he cannot be buried in peace!"
"That's right!" Another person also said.
When Zhou saw it, he squinted his eyes and always felt that there was something wrong with it. "You continue to combine the opinions of the people and promote it. General Zhou is our hero, the hero of the country and the nation, and he should not be treated like this."
"yes!"
Seeing his two men leaving, Zhou Jianshi just looked at his room. When he came to the Independent Division, he was almost under house arrest. Wherever he went, people would follow him. Let alone spreading the news, as long as he dared to spread it,
He promised that a bullet would be shot at him immediately. However, the current behavior of the independent division puzzled him.
He is also at the headquarters of the Independent Division. Although he is under house arrest, he can still go to some places.
At the headquarters, he didn't see any disharmony.
Didn't see any quarrel.
If it was really because of the struggle for power that the funeral affairs of Zhou Weiguo and others were postponed, then it would not be justified. At least, he did not see it.
Although there are rumors outside that the senior members of the Independent Division were assassinated. Even Zhou Weiguo was not spared, but until now, who among their people has seen Zhou Weiguo's body? Not to mention Zhou Weiguo's body, several others
I’m afraid I haven’t seen any of the corpses of the senior members of the independent division!
Even though there are mourning halls set up.
But no one else is allowed to enter the mourning hall!
This is weird!
Zhou Jianshi also had to think a little more. I'm afraid there might be some fraud involved.
But, where is this deceit? This made him think for a long time. Finally, he came to a terrible conclusion. The senior leaders of the independent division may have faked their own deaths.
In other words, their so-called assassination had been known to the Independent Division for a long time, and the Independent Division in turn set up such a strategy to lure them into taking the bait.
Such thoughts made Zhou Jianshi very frightened.
He didn't dare to tell the outside world.
He could only let his two national soldiers promote such public opinion, just to find out the truth of the matter.
After sighing, Zhou Jianshi sat down helplessly.
…
On the 25th, on a mountain road in the northwest of Suining County.
"Hospital seat, I have heard the news. The Japanese went to Suining yesterday and are still repairing in Suining and have not set off."
"Hmph!" Lei Dingtian gritted his teeth. Yesterday almost made him lose face. "Tell the brothers to hide them all for me. The Japanese will definitely go back to Xuzhou! Yesterday we traveled, but we lost a lot of face! If
We can't discount merit as punishment, our brigade will become a joke to the entire independent division! If I become a joke, then I have to make you guys a joke first!"
"Ah? Isn't that right? The road yesterday was so small on the map that I couldn't even see it clearly."
"Huh!" Lei Dingtian snorted coldly, "Wait for the Japanese to come."
"yes!"
…
Suining
"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, the warriors are almost ready, but there are many wounded."
"how many?"
"There are about 3,000 people with minor injuries, and there are about 700 or 800 people with serious injuries."
"Baga! The independent division is really abominable!" The Japanese major general gritted his teeth. This operation was a failure. Not only did he lose several generals, but he also suffered heavy losses. When he returns to Xuzhou, he will write a battle report!
How should he write such a combat report?
"Ask the Suining garrison to prepare some vehicles! The seriously wounded who are not suitable for movement will receive treatment in Suining and return to the team when they are healed. The lightly wounded will return to Xuzhou with the army!"
"Hi!"
The Japanese major general also had a headache when he looked at his men who were going to deliver the order. Yesterday's situation was still vivid in his mind. They were running around like headless flies. They were driven all over the map by the artillery fire of the independent division. Moreover, they also lost a large number of pieces.
Part of the baggage and heavy weapons. This is more uncomfortable than if they died directly in battle. These surviving soldiers may have a shadow on the Independent Division! It is no longer suitable to guard the territory near the Independent Division!
Closing his eyes, the Japanese major general thought for a moment whether there was any way to turn defeat into victory. Then, he opened his eyes and flashed his eyes sharply. If he came out to mess around, he would always have to pay back! It can't always be the independent division that wins!
