Not to mention the long number of Japanese troops represented behind those serial numbers, just those long serial numbers make people dizzy just looking at them.
Not to mention that the 26th Route Army, the 3rd Army, the 22nd Group Army and other military headquarters have called back to ask the 129th Division to verify the results again. This is to leave a step for the future military god. Brother, you should think carefully before generating electricity to avoid embarrassment.
! Even the 18th Army Headquarters responded with extreme caution, asking the 129th Division to carefully verify the results before returning the call quickly.
This is the result of an army lieutenant general with a full division sending this message. If Liu Lang, a young colonel, had sent a message to the armies to report victory, I am afraid it would not be "Please verify the results again" and "Be sure to verify the results carefully", but
He was scolded by all the generals.
No one else would have believed that the powerful 20th Division of the Japanese Army had been wiped out like this. Although, those generals had also dreamed of that.
However, the reality is that the 20th Division, which has heavy artillery and more than 10,000 elite infantry, overwhelmed the tens of thousands of troops on the eastern Shanxi front who were relying on the mountains to defend themselves.
The 17th Division, which was well-equipped and well-trained, only held out for five days at Fulu Ridge in Snow Flower Mountain. Sixty percent of the entire army suffered casualties and was basically crippled, and was forced back to Niangzi Pass. The eastern Shanxi front line served as the defense for Niangzi Pass.
The 30,000-strong Third Army of the Central Army, the main force of the battle, faced only an infantry regiment with a strength of 3,800. After seven days and nights of defensive battles, the battle losses exceeded 5,000.
The terrible casualty figures make the generals sit on pins and needles every day. For them, what they fear is not the increase in casualties, but the safety of the Shanxi defense line. This is only the front of the 20th Division. Once it has detoured to the southeast of Shanxi
One and a half divisions of the Japanese army flanked Shandong. What pressure would the 100,000 troops on the Shandong front face face? Once the Shandong defense line was broken, Taiyuan would be in danger. The Taiyuan defense battle, which had been fiercely fought for nearly one and a half months, would end with the defeat of the Chinese side.
.
It can be said that in the past few days, the generals in northern China have almost all focused their attention on Shanxi, where the Chinese army has 100,000 troops. The Japanese army has a total strength of more than 50,000 troops. Compared with the Chinese army at Xinkou, which has more than 150,000 troops,
, the Japanese army exceeded 70,000, and the Chinese and Japanese sides invested more than 600 artillery pieces. It was not considered a battlefield for a large-scale battle.
Are you guys still worried? After only one day and one night, your 129th Division told us that the 20th Division was completely wiped out, not only the two Japanese infantry brigades on the front line of Niangziguan plus an artillery regiment.
The corps, the baggage regiment, and even Bunzaburo Kawagishi's old home in Shimen were taken over by your 129th Division.
Are you trying to tell us how bold people are and how productive the land is?
It's not that the generals are not imaginative enough, it's actually that no matter how they thought, they never thought that one day they would bring down the entire 20th Division. If they could repel the 20th Division's attack, they would give him another chance.
Killing a few more little devils with cold shots is already the limit of their imagination.
Yes, the National Army has always had the habit of picking up sesame seeds and saying that they have picked up a watermelon, but you are not picking up a watermelon at all, but you mean to move the entire watermelon field! Moreover, you are red
Don’t Party members value seeking truth from facts? You can’t just say that you got into this bad habit just after you put on the blue sky and white sun hat badge! Why should you be embarrassed if you let the principal know about it?
Not to mention the national armies, which are in a different system from the 129th Division, even the 18th Group Army Headquarters, the superior of the 129th Division, actually had some complaints about the call from the future military god.
"Old Liu, what the hell is he doing? For one day and one night, he did not report the battle situation to the headquarters for confidentiality reasons. This report was just a fool, saying that the enemy's 20th Division and even the 20th Division were completely annihilated.
The regiment division and regiment headquarters are all in trouble. Isn’t this a joke? The military discipline of lying about military information is not something that can be avoided by holding the rank of lieutenant general." The fiery-tempered Deputy Commander-in-Chief Peng glared with a pair of bull's eyes.
He was sitting on the table, obviously very angry.
If it weren't for the generous character of the Commander-in-Chief, and the cautious character of the future Marshal Ye as the Chief of Staff, and the cautious Chief of Staff Zuo as the Deputy Chief of Staff, then I'm afraid that the callbacks from the 18th Group Army Headquarters would have been worse than those of other generals on the Shandong Front.
Even more welcome is the call back.
In fact, these Chinese generals did not know that if this battle report, which they considered unrealistic, was immediately transferred to the hands of the CEO in Nanjing, who was silently watching the original text of Liu Tuanzuo's speech at Shimen.
He will definitely burst into flames and shout "Okay!"
He had to believe it! The military command intelligence station at Shimen had confirmed that the 343rd Brigade under the 129th Division had captured Shimen and completely wiped out the 20th Division Division Headquarters. Even the manuscript of the speech to appease the people was secretly sent to the Nanjing Military Command Headquarters.
What "Brigadier Chen" said, "If you dare to retaliate against the soldiers and civilians of northern China, the towering Taihang Mountains will be covered with the heads of Japanese invaders." It was so deep in the heart of the president that he was beaten by the Japanese army in Songhu.
.
Of course, if it were not the 129th Division of the 18th Group Army, but any other unit, let alone the military exploits of conquering Shimen, I am afraid that this statement that made the boss feel so comfortable could be replaced by one
Medal of Blue Sky and White Sun.
In North China and Southeast China, the big boss who was slapped left and right by Niang Xipi's little devil and almost had his face swollen, what he needs most now is to let out the bad breath in his chest.
During the battle at Shimen, the words "Brigadier Chen" completely satisfied the leader's psychology.
Even the home base of the 20th Division was destroyed. All the infantry brigade and artillery regiment were destroyed. What's so surprising?
It can be said that if the 20,000 troops who are cheering at this moment send a clear telegram to declare victory, the first person to believe them is not the many generals on the front line of Shanxi, but the chairman of the committee at the rear. The commendation order may be given at that moment.
It was promulgated.
It's a pity that even the future military god does not have the qualifications to report beyond the level. The old man from Shanxi, the commander of the 2nd theater, is walking anxiously in the study every day because the war situation in Shanxi is unclear and his hometown Taiyuan is about to be in danger. At this moment,
Why don't you still run around in the study room? If you give him a mobile phone from the future, the WeChat exercise step statistics will definitely top the circle of friends.
"Come on, Commander Liu! You see, this big drama you directed is over, but no one believes it!" In the temporary and simple field command post on Snowflake Mountain, the future military god smiled and put all the people in charge.
Jun's reply was placed on the conference table in front of everyone.
It's said to be a conference table, but it's actually just a big stone covered with a map of Shanxi. Even the people under the buttocks who are qualified to sit here are not chairs, they are all stones.
Most of the generals sitting around the stones laughed.
Not to mention that the generals didn't believe it, even they themselves seemed to be in a dream now. Did they really annihilate all the little devils in the division?
The fact is, this is indeed true.
Including Army Major General Cun Xingqi, who did not smile and had a look of shock on his face again.
Those who are qualified to sit here, in addition to the two military and political officers of the 129th Division, are the two lieutenant generals, Commander Zhao Shoushan and Comrade Lao Li, the two brigade commanders of the 129th Division, and Cun Xingqi, who is somewhat unwilling to come here to make money.
The only other school official is naturally Liu Lang and Liu Tuanzuo.
For Cun Xingqi, this day was definitely like falling into a fairy tale dreamland.
If the 386th Brigade wiped out the Japanese invaders and the 26th Artillery Regiment bombarded the 78th Infantry Regiment and combined forces to wipe out the infantry regiment in one place was an incredible fairy tale to him, then when he came to Jingxing, he once fell and annihilated the infantry regiment.
Jingxing County, which was used by the Japanese army as a frontline logistics and supply base, has returned to the embrace of the Chinese army. Two consecutive trains carrying massive supplies and ammunition are a miracle.
Even if he, a major general, rolled up his sleeves and carried supplies together with several lieutenant generals, he would still be willing to do so.
So that before Commander Liu sent electricity to the troops, he placed a row of corpses of Japanese generals and a pile of general-level sabers thrown there like rubbish in front of several generals. Major General Cun was already stunned.
Somewhat numb.
The corpses wearing the collar badges of Japanese lieutenant generals and major generals could not even recognize themselves, and they could only judge by military rank who was Kawagishi Bunzaburo, who was Kitura Kyuzo, and who was Takagi Yoshito...
If it comes to military rank, the 129th Division can still fake it.
But the pile of swords thrown next to the corpse like garbage could not be faked.
Although this was his first time dealing with the Japanese army, Cun Xingqi, who knew the principle of knowing yourself and your enemy, may have started studying the Japanese army a few years ago and was very familiar with its various equipment.
Cun Xingqi knew that the Japanese Army saber adopts the traditional "Jintachi" form. Although it only stipulates the unified format of the scabbard and handle, the choice of the blade is relatively free and there is no rigid "what sword to wear at any level"
It is stipulated that ordinary officers should use blades made by machines in arsenals, and wealthy officers should use hand-forged high-quality blades. However, no matter what kind of blade you choose, the Japanese army has strict regulations on the handle.
Under the rolled silk ribbon on both sides of the handle, there is the unique "eyes" of Japanese swords, which is three parallel cherry blossoms or the cherry blossoms plus the clan emblem. There is a carved tassel ring at the "ape hand" of the handle. The double-sided woven "
"Thread" is an important ornament of the Japanese military sword. The gold, red, and blue colors on the inside are the symbols for distinguishing the ranks of general, colonel, and lieutenant.
In addition, the most important difference between the Japanese military officers' sabers is that there are flower spikes on the handle of the saber. The more complex and numerous the flower spikes are, the higher the military rank will be! The handle of the general's sword is a flower stick, and the squad leader's knife
, the handle is the bachelor!
The materials of the sword handles are also different. The ones used by generals are mostly made of gold, while those used by assistant officers are mostly made of silver or copper. If they are related to the royal family, the more noble ivory will be used.
And this pile of "junk" not only has enough flower spikes on the knife handles, but also the "threads" on the inside are mostly blood red and gold. The handles of several sabers are even made of gold, and the blades are extremely sharp.
It's so cold.
And one of the samurai swords with an ivory handle and the words "Minamoto Yoshihiro Steel" on it is even more terrifying. A tree as thick as a bowl can be broken with one sword. If it weren't a famous Japanese sword, I'm afraid Cun Xingqi himself wouldn't believe it.
Obviously, the 129th Division did not lie. They really took down the 20th Division.
However, according to what Mr. Liu said, all of this was actually directed by Liu Lang, which was really beyond his expectation.
