Chapter 285 The sad commander of the Black Hawk Army
The Anwupo victory once again suffered heavy damage to the "powerful" image of the Black Hawk Army. Many media even pointed out bluntly that the Black Hawk Army can only be considered a second-rate army at best, and may be rampant in the kingdom for a while, but if it faces the army of a powerful country, it will definitely be vulnerable!
Regarding foreign contempt, the Black Hawk Empire was a mute person who ate yellow lotus and could not say anything about his suffering.
However, for the initiator of the Independent Regiment, the Black Hawk Army Command and even the base camp, they hated it to the core and insisted on getting rid of it soon. Even the imperial emperor was alarmed and issued a decree directly requiring the Black Hawk Army to find ways to annihilate the Independent Regiment in order to restore international influence and restore the international reputation of the Great Black Hawk Empire Army.
...
Black Hawk Army Headquarters Residence.
Lieutenant General Zhang Can delivered a telegram to the front of Zhang Qinghua case with a serious expression and said, "Genius General, the headquarters call is coming, urging us to resolve the war in the ancient city of the Kingdom as soon as possible, and at the same time, the defenders represented by the Independent Regiment of the Second Division of the Kingdom Central Army at the Anwupo Pass were wiped out. It is best to capture the officers of his leadership alive, and our Black Hawk Army will be shot openly to save the possible adverse effects of the defeat of the 4th Brigade."
Zhang Qinghua, who was always shrouded in a trace of gloom, silently finished reading the telegram and said, "Lt. General Zhang, have the two fighters of the 6th Air Wing returned?"
"No." Zhang Can shook his head. "The 14th Brigade, which had arrived at the Anwupo battlefield, had ordered people to search the battlefield, but did not find any information about our military aircraft. The only thing that can be confirmed is that the two aircraft have not returned at this time point, and it is basically possible to determine that the accident has been broken. I have ordered the Black Hawk Army troops along the way to send a search team, but..."
Zhang Can already understand his meaning very well. Looking for two aircraft on the vast land is undoubtedly a needle in a haystack. These are just an explanation for the 6th Air Wing, which is not under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Army Command of the Black Hawk Army.
The wrinkles on Zhang Qinghua's forehead became two points deeper.
The losses of the two aircraft were nothing to the Black Hawk Army, but this undoubtedly added a account to his almost stupid long-range command this time. Zhang Qinghua could almost imagine that his opponents in the military headquarters would happily knock all these damages on his head.
Originally, the Imperial Field Marshal was already expected! But now... General Zhang Qinghua couldn't think of being depressed at this moment.
After calming down his mind, Zhang Qinghua continued to ask: "Have you called back?"
"The call has been returned." Zhang Can nodded with a sad expression, "After searching, a large number of bodies of imperial soldiers were found on the battlefield ten miles before the Anwupo Pass in the ancient city of the Kingdom. Through identification, it can be confirmed that the 2nd artillery brigade of the 1st Artillery Brigade of the 8th Artillery Corps was killed. Although the kings did not massacre the wounded soldiers, nearly 400 wounded soldiers were abandoned in the wilderness. When the 14th Brigade arrived, except for one person, the rest were killed. The abominable kings stripped away the only remaining cold-proof clothes on the warriors, which was the main reason why the wounded soldiers were taken away by the cold. At the same time, all the equipment and supplies of the two artillery brigades were lost."
There is no way, who made the Black Hawk Army a big dog? Not to mention that the officers were wearing big leather boots and wool coats, even the cotton coats on soldiers were much better than those on the Kingdom Army. Especially the 29th Army, the cotton in the cotton coats on them was even thinner. When the north wind blew, the face was cold and blue. Runny noses were commonplace, and so many were too lazy to wipe them with their sleeves.
The clothes on the Black Hawk Army's corpse that were blown up were too disgusting. The cotton coats of more than 400 wounded soldiers were undoubtedly excellent trophy. So when the 14th Brigade arrived, rows of Black Hawk Army wounded soldiers who had been frozen were barefoot and wearing white shirts. Almost all those who could be stripped away were taken away by Tang Yongming's men.
Not to mention that Chi Dakui didn't see it, he even slapped his thighs and smiled and directed his soldiers to help. It was good to use the huhu Beifeng's move without bullets.
"Lt. General Zhang, continue." Zhang Qinghua's face remained unchanged, but his hands tightly held the armrest of the chair.
"Then, they found the body of Major General Yang Huan, the commander of the 4th Brigade, as well as the bodies of most officers such as his chief of staff, Colonel Feng Jingyu, Major Yanagawa, and other officers. The kings arranged the bodies of all officers of the 4th Brigade neatly. Except for the bodies of several officers that had been destroyed and difficult to identify, the rest had basically been confirmed. At the same time, in front of the three positions of the Kingdom Guardians, the 14th Brigade counted 3,300 soldiers' bodies, and in addition to the nearly 2,000 bodies on the defensive positions of the 4th Brigade, it can be basically confirmed that the 4th Brigade had been killed in the battle, from the commander of the brigade Yang Huan."
"Bastard, stupid Yang Huan, it was him who ruined the entire 4th Brigade, and it was him who made the entire Black Hawk Army shame for this." Zhang Qinghua, who had been holding back and forth, finally couldn't control his anger, stood up and walked back and forth in the office like a trapped beast, while cursing his dead subordinates in his mouth.
As for the fact that nearly 2,000 people were missing, Xiao Qing said it clearly in his first call to reply. The battlefield was extremely tragic, and the entire position was suspected to have been subjected to violent artillery attacks. Many soldiers' bodies could not be counted normally and could only be cremated on the spot.
More than 9,300 urns were urgently transported to the front line, which is probably the first time for the Black Hawk Army.
"So, what about the whereabouts of the Kingdom Army, which caused the collective death of the 4th Brigade?" Zhang Qinghua, who vented his anger, said sinisterly.
"They should have all been retracted. According to Xiao Qing's report, although the specific enemy forces are still not determined, according to the analysis of the remaining firepower on the battlefield, the enemy will not be less than three brigades." Zhang Can shook his head and said, "The commander of the kingdom is extremely cunning. We must not take it lightly this time. Lieutenant General Xiao Qing has ordered most of the 6th Division to rush to Anwupo, and his command will have nearly 30,000 troops."
Zhang Qinghua nodded and said, "Lieutenant General Xiao Qing's command is still trustworthy. I cannot blame the failure of the 4th Brigade this time. I will explain this to the base camp."
"Your Excellency General, the Black Hawk Army will be proud of you." Zhang Can looked at Zhang Qinghua's eyes and said respectfully.
