So, after Liu Tuanzuo had already left, His Excellency General Shoudai in the temple still had to hurriedly pull Liu Tuanzuo back.
Don't leave in a hurry! Didn't you get the lucky money?
As the officers and soldiers of the Second Company opened the heavy iron door, they saw packages of white rice and flour and neatly stacked cans of beef, which almost made Liu Tuanzuo laugh out loud.
This little devil was so polite that he even slept through it. Not only did he get a room for free, but he also gave me some travel expenses home.
I really regret that I didn’t go to Japan to make an appointment with Langdanza in my previous life. I was like how I felt at that time! It was really a flood of water, with waves hitting waves, one wave after another.
With a wave of his hand, except for the Sanbengzi driver who drove the Sanbengzi from the highway to pick up the two special teams who were about to complete the task of blowing up the bridge back to Jingxing, everyone else got on the train. They no longer had to suffer from the wind and were comfortable.
After being fed up, I lay down on a pile of white flour and went home.
Of course, even though I was comfortable, I couldn't say that I would keep worrying the friendly forces. A telegram was sent out and Jingxing County lifted the red alert.
More than 20,000 little ants began to run wildly carrying supplies amidst the red-eyed shouts of officers at all levels. When Liu Lang said that there was still a train of baggage, the happy lieutenant generals were a little distressed. Tonight, they could
I got tired and fell down.
In the end, even the future military god rolled up his sleeves and went into battle personally to carry a bag of rice. He was forty years old and ran into the mountains like a young man.
Comrade Lao Li, who came to Jingxing County with the First Battalion of the Independent Regiment, saw that all the actual army lieutenant generals were on duty. How could he count the numbers with a smile while holding a teacup? He could only grit his teeth and carry a box of bullets.
as labor force.
This is probably the first time in Comrade Li's life that he has moved such a heavy thing. However, because he entered the battlefield diary of a beautiful reporter who has not yet released it, Comrade Li probably feels quite happy.
You know, Reporter Liu has not published his suddenly discontinued battlefield diary for three days in a row. Thousands of people in the country are eagerly looking forward to it. If he can show his face in it, he is already famous.
"When I saw, Lieutenant General Commander Liu of the 129th Division, Lieutenant Commander Zhao of the 17th Division, Lieutenant General Commander Li of the Shanxi-Sui Army, Major General Brigadier Cun of the 3rd Army of the Central Army, and two Brigadiers Chen from the 129th Division
Commander, as well as all the officers at all levels carrying the collar badges of colonel, lieutenant colonel and major, rolled up their sleeves or took off their proud officer uniforms. Like the soldiers, they went shirtless and shouted slogans to rush for luck.
The moment I bought the supplies, I knew that China would definitely win this great Patriotic War.
Because our officers and soldiers are one, and we are united as one."
Liu Xueyuan described this the next day in the People's Daily, which had moved its headquarters to Wuhan but did not change its name.
The power of public opinion is terrifying. Comrade Li, who was used as a scapegoat in time and space and became the first senior general to be shot, never imagined that he was almost killed after fighting the Japanese army for several days in Tianshui Town.
Guan Qianqian moved several boxes of bullets but got a medal in vain. Although the medal was not as high-level as the others who showed up, but with the medal protecting the body, his head must have been saved, right?
From then on, Comrade Lao Li's plan was that it didn't matter whether the Shanxi old man's thighs were hugged or not, but Lang Pang's thick legs must be hugged, and he had a lucky halo.
Here in China, people are happily moving things.
On the Japanese side, things were a little hard to think about.
With a loud bang, the iron bridge on the Hutuo River on the Ping-Han Line, the most important transportation artery running through north and south China, was blown into the sky.
Nearly 500 kilograms of explosives were buried in the piers and bottom of the bridge by 13 special soldiers. Skilled blasting techniques brought the power of 500 kilograms of explosives to the extreme. Not only did they blast the iron bridge weighing hundreds of tons into the sky, but also
Even the bridge piers were blown down, leaving only a few bases soaking in the Hutuo River, which has entered the dry season.
The huge explosion alerted the Japanese army in Baoding, and they sent motorcyclists to rush all the way to the iron bridge. The Japanese army was dumbfounded. The iron bridge guarded by an infantry team was gone, leaving only a pile of crooked steel.
The structure was helplessly soaking in the water, with only a few broken piers proving the existence of a large iron bridge here.
What's worse is that not only is the traffic on the Ping-Han Railway Line interrupted, they are also unable to cross the river. If they want to cross the river, their motorcycles will run out of gas and they don't know if they can go around it.
The field radio station of Lin Xiaoshun's 20th Division Communications Brigade received constant messages, all of which were questions from Peking about the bridge.
However, the radio station of the 20th Division fell into terrible silence. It was so silent that Juichi Terauchi finally realized that the situation was not good. Thinking of everything that happened during the day, His Majesty the Imperial Japanese Army General, the top leader of the Japanese North China Front, sweated on his forehead for the first time.
He tentatively bypassed the headquarters of the 20th Division and sent a message to the 39th Infantry Brigade and 40th Infantry Brigade to inquire about the situation at Niangziguan. Again, there was silence.
The poor army general was no longer sweating on his forehead but in cold sweat. He almost violently ordered the troops closest to Shimen in Baoding to set off for Shimen as quickly as possible. The iron bridge was gone, so I swam across the river for me.
I want to know what is going on with Shimen and the 20th Division in the shortest possible time.
The roar of His Excellency the General, who was as anxious as a male lion that had been rejected for mate, almost spread throughout the entire Japanese North China Front Headquarters.
Under the order of His Majesty the General, while an infantry squadron was still bathing in the Hutuo River, he received a message from the headquarters staff officer who was rushing towards him.
Before his scouts could report, the Chinese had already sent their results to the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs in Nanjing, the capital of China. This message was sent by the highest-ranking Japanese spy who had infiltrated the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs regardless of the risk of exposure.
.Perhaps, the Chinese are no longer afraid of the exposure of this information. It is said that after the results of the battle are verified, they will be published in China's central newspaper tomorrow.
However, what is written in the telegram is really difficult for General Touichi Terauchi to accept. To be precise, it is hard to believe that the Chinese are joking?
The 20th Division wiped out more than 25,000 Japanese invaders from the leader, Bunzaburo Kawagishi, down... Who gave the Chinese such courage to tell such a big lie?
The first sentence at the beginning of the telegram made Terauchi not angry but rather amused. There may be many reasons why the radio station could not be contacted. It is also possible that the Chinese took some advantage, such as sending troops to sneak attack and successfully blow up the railway bridge, but
If a complete division with nearly 30,000 troops and a combat effectiveness comparable to China's 100,000 troops was annihilated in just two days, and it was annihilated without sending a request for help, did the Chinese mobilize 150,000 or 200,000?
If Juichi Terauchi was still a little worried about the various units of the 20th Division that he could not contact before, now he has relaxed a lot of his thoughts. The Chinese are trying to cover up, or they are engaging in premeditated tactical deception.
There was absolutely no chance that there would be any major problems with the 20th Division, and Juichi Terauchi gave himself a very firm psychological hint.
Not to mention, the commander-in-chief of the Japanese North China Front sat in his office and ignored the Chinese-style joke message sent by a senior spy of his own side. He only waited for the front-line soldiers to report to him.
As night fell, Liu Lang, who had completely evacuated the Shimen area and successfully arrived at Jingxing County Railway Station, led a company of people to get off the train.
To Liu Lang's expectation, there was a row of generals standing neatly on the train station platform.
As Liu Lang stepped onto the platform, the future military god standing at the front of the queue of generals gave an energetic order: "Salute to all the soldiers who are going on the expedition."
With a "swish" sound, all the generals and colonels who were qualified to stand on the platform raised their right hands to Liu Lang and others.
This frightened Liu Lang and the officers and men of the Guard Company and the Second Company of the Bayonet Battalion to stand at attention and return the salute.
The platform was surrounded by soldiers on guard, all holding torches high. The bright firelight was enough for Liu Lang to see clearly the crowd on the platform.
The person leading the salute to the soldiers on the expedition was the future military god. Standing next to him was Commander Zhao, the commander of the 17th Division. On the other side stood political commissar Deng and Comrade Lao Li, who also carried the rank of lieutenant general.
In a row slightly to the back stood two Brigade Commanders Chen and a soldier with a dirty face and a square face who was also wearing a military uniform with the rank of Major General of the National Army. Behind them stood Commander Ye, whom Liu Lang was familiar with.
The military ranks on the collar badges of Deputy Commander Wang and others indicate that they are at least Army Colonels of the same rank as Liu Lang.
This specification is too high.
It was so tall that the Langtuan seats were a bit unbearable. Although officers and soldiers of the Bayonet Battalion like Mi Laowu stood up straight, their legs couldn't help but feel a little weak.
"Good boy, at least three lieutenant generals, three major generals and a row of colonels are saluting, and I am right in front of them. Grandson, you know how awesome your grandpa and I are!" Several years later, sitting in a wheelchair,
A certain soldier faced the setting sun and murmured. Then, he smiled and dozed happily.
The young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes beside the wheelchair nodded and silently tucked the quilt tightly for the old man. He had heard this story a thousand times, but who knew that his grandfather had already suffered from Alzheimer's disease and only knew him as his eldest grandson?
?Moreover, he has forgotten even the war, he just remembers this.
That was the most glorious moment of his life.
For every officer and soldier in the guard platoon and bayonet battalion, it is.
But they are definitely qualified to enjoy this honor.
The headquarters of the 20th Japanese Division was completely wiped out. The division commander, Lieutenant General Kawagishi Bunzaburo, was shot to death. The chief of staff of the division, Kushimura Kuzo, was shot to death. The 40th Infantry Brigade was shot to death. Yoshio was shot to death. The 39th Infantry Brigade was shot to death.
Yoshito Takagi of the Infantry Brigade was shot to death, the 77th Infantry Regiment's Colonel Kotogyuki was shot to death, the 78th Infantry Regiment...
Once upon a time, Japanese military commanders were no longer valuable here.
All this has something to do with the fat man standing in front of them. Together with him, enjoying the glory that belongs to the soldiers, all the officers and soldiers are honored.
