"It's already this time, but you're still talking nonsense."
"If you don't brag, you will die. This is simply the reincarnation of Zhao Kuo."
"Chief Commander, you can no longer leave the safety of the 35th Army to this guy who can only talk on paper."
Hearing Xu Rui's words, several high-ranking officials present immediately burst into tears, with looks of indignation on their faces, as if what they stood for and upheld was the truth.
Fu Zuoyi also frowned slightly when he heard this.
Because in Fu Zuoyi's view, Xu Rui's words were a bit exaggerated.
Xu Rui said before that the nine recharged main battalions of the 35th Army had a chance to defeat the main force of the Mongolian army stationed outside Wuyuan City. Fu Zuoyi still believed it, because there is another prerequisite, which is that the Langya Brigade completes the attack.
As long as the Mongolian army loses effective command, the 35th Army will have this opportunity.
But now it seems that the beheading battle of the Wolf Fang Brigade did not achieve the expected results.
The frontline headquarters of the Army Garrison in Mongolia and the division headquarters of the 26th Division were indeed destroyed. It was precisely because the frontline headquarters of the Army Garrison in Mongolia was destroyed that it caused ideological confusion among the Japanese troops participating in the Wuyuan Battle.
Just when these Japanese soldiers were hesitating, not knowing whether to retreat or attack, the 35th Army suddenly launched a counterattack.
Facing the sudden counterattack of the 35th Army, the Japanese outside the city were caught off guard.
Soon, the Japanese outside the south gate, east gate and west gate were defeated and began to flee.
But the Japs in the North Gate Battlefield were not defeated because the old Japs Abe Norihide was here.
Precisely because Abe Norihide was there, the Japanese outside the North Gate were not in chaos, which directly led to the failure of the North Gate counterattack.
Without Norihide Abe, once the Japanese troops outside the city formed a rout, they would no longer be able to form a rope, and they would be defeated like a mountain, all the way back to Baotou. But now with Norihide Abe, they will be defeated.
The Japanese will be gathered again, and the situation will return to a stalemate.
Because of the loss of surprise, the Thirty-fifth Army did not have an advantage when facing the Japanese.
That's why Fu Zuoyi felt that the best result now could only be a tie.
But now, Xu Rui is still brazenly saying that the situation is still under control and there is still a chance to annihilate the Japanese troops stationed in Mongolia. This makes Fu Zuoyi a little intolerable.
While he was talking, a communications staff officer hurried in and reported to Xu Rui: "Senate, the Japs outside the north gate have sent more than a dozen cavalry squads, trying to gather the Japs' troops from other directions, and..."
Before the words could even be finished, the senior advisers could no longer hold back and started making noises again.
"What did I just say? The Japs outside the north gate will definitely harass the defeated troops. This will cause trouble."
"Yes, although the counterattacks at the South Gate, East Gate and West Gate were won, the results were limited and not many Japs were actually killed. Once the old Japs Abe Kihide is allowed to collect all the defeated troops from three directions,
The troops stationed in Mongolia will still have an absolute advantage in strength and firepower against our 35th Army."
Several high-ranking officials were so excited that they almost died to remonstrate.
Fu Zuoyi was also a little agitated by what they said, and immediately roared: "Shut up!"
The headquarters became slightly quiet, and Fu Zuoyi turned his attention to the communications staff officer again and asked: "And what?"
The communications staff officer took a deep breath and said: "Moreover, the forward observation post reported that the Japanese outside the North Gate have launched another counterattack, and one of the infantry squadrons has even broken into the city wall!"
"What are you talking about? The Japanese are starting to counterattack. Oh my! It's broken!"
"We are going to lose, we are going to lose this battle, and we will lose even more miserably than before!"
"Chief Commander, don't hesitate any longer. Hurry up and gather the troops involved in the counterattack and retreat!"
"Yes, Chief, if we withdraw now, we can still save the seven main battalions. If we don't withdraw, we won't even be able to save the last seven remaining main battalions."
Several senior counselors immediately surrounded Fu Zuoyi and strongly demanded that the troops withdraw immediately.
This time, not only the senior counselors, but even the division commanders were a little impatient and joined in the persuasion, asking Fu Zuoyi to give an order to retreat immediately.
Xu Rui watched with cold eyes, hearing for the first time the legendary classic saying: Chief, for the sake of the party and the country, please leave some seeds for our 35th Army!
Fu Zuoyi also began to hesitate.
Xu Rui knew immediately that he could no longer remain silent.
At that moment, Xu Rui said to Fu Zuoyi: "Sir Fu, do you think the Chinese nation is an inferior nation?"
"What?" Fu Zuoyi was stunned, why did he suddenly bring up this topic? Then he said blankly, "Of course not."
Xu Rui then turned his attention to the senior officials present and asked sternly: "So, do you think the Chinese nation is an inferior nation?"
"Nonsense, of course not."
"Don't change the subject, that's not what we're talking about now."
"That's right, we are talking about the 35th Army now!"
"That's the same thing!" Xu Rui interrupted them sternly, "You may deny it with your mouth, but in your heart, you actually admit it. You just think that the Chinese nation is an inferior nation and is inferior to the Chinese nation.
The human race is even worse than the white people in the West. You have already fallen on your knees at the feet of the Japanese and Westerners spiritually!"
Silence, the entire command center suddenly fell into deathly silence, because they could not deny it.
Including Fu Zuoyi, they do think that the Chinese are inferior to the Japanese and even worse to the white people. If not, why has China become so weak? Of course, this does not mean that they are not patriotic. In fact, they are more patriotic than anyone else.
Otherwise, we would not shed our lives and blood for the country and the nation.
But being patriotic is one thing, but falling to your knees in spirit is another.
In fact, let alone modern China, even in the early 21st century, many Chinese people have not yet stood up spiritually. In their eyes, it is a matter of course for white European superheroes to save the world, but in China
Superheroes saving the world are nonsense. What kind of logic is this?
In fact, even the great literary giant Mr. Lu Xun is still crawling at the feet of the West spiritually. The evidence is that he actually advocated the Latin alphabetization of Chinese and shouted the slogan that if Chinese characters are not destroyed, China will perish!
After a long while, Ye Qijie was the first to come to his senses and said: "Chief of Staff Xu, don't talk nonsense."
"Mr. Ye, I'm not talking to you." Xu Rui said, "What I want to say is that you have been kneeling for so long that you have forgotten to stand up. In fact, the Chinese are not as good as you think.
So bad, the Japanese are not as powerful and invincible as you think. As of now, our 35th Army has an absolute advantage."
After a pause, Xu Rui added: "It's hard for us to lose this battle today!"
"It's so hard to lose." Yao Dahai, the supervisory committee member who had been silent just now, finally couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Chief of Staff Xu, let's talk about how to block the counterattack of the Beimen Japs!" After a pause, Yao Dahai said
Then he continued, "After all, the two battalions that counterattacked from the north gate have been defeated, and you have no more reserves in your hands."
The eyes of Fu Zuoyi, Ye Qijie and several senior officials immediately turned to Xu Rui.
The fact is that the nine battalions that Xu Rui had in hand as the general reserve have all been invested in the counterattack, including three battalions from the east gate and two battalions from the other three directions. However, the counterattack from the north gate
The two main battalions had been defeated by the Japanese just now.
"Block?" Xu Rui laughed and said, "Why block?"
"What?" Yao Dahai was stunned when he heard this. Everyone present was stunned and refused to block it?
Xu Rui ignored everyone's confusion and said directly to the communications officer: "Counsel Wang, order the Seventh and Ninth Battalions not to pay attention to the Japs who broke into the North Gate City Wall, and immediately gather the remaining soldiers to retreat through the East Gate and West Gate City Walls.
I want to see if the little Japanese has the guts to go deep into the city!"
"What? Don't care about the Japanese who broke into the North Gate city wall?"
"Crazy, absolutely crazy. Chief, you don't want to listen to this lunatic."
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief, this man must be crazy. He is deliberately trying to destroy our 35th Army!"
"Ah, yes, I remembered. The person named Xu is still a Communist. He must have bad intentions. Chief, this person named Xu came to harm us on orders from Yan'an!"
When they heard that Xu Rui was going to let go of the north gate and allow the Japanese to break in, several senior officials present immediately went crazy.
Fu Zuoyi also frowned, because he also felt that it was not a good idea to let go of the North Gate wall at this time and allow the Japanese to break into the city, because doing so would seriously shake the morale of the army. Once the morale of the army collapsed, the thirty-five
The army is truly finished, and the chance for a comeback is gone.
However, at this moment, another communications staff officer came in and reported: "Commissioner, the forward observation post reported that the little Japs who broke into the North Gate city wall have withdrawn again!"
"What? The Japanese have withdrawn again?"
"What's going on? Just come in and immediately retreat?"
"This is illogical. Why do the Japanese want to withdraw?"
"Yes, the North Gate city wall is empty. Why don't the Japanese march straight in?"
"Commander Li, did you hear wrongly? How could the little Japs retreat at this time?"
Several senior officials present were immediately confused, and then they didn't believe it. They didn't believe the Japanese would retreat.
However, Staff Officer Li who came to report said categorically: "Yes, the Japanese have just withdrawn."
The senior counselor wanted to speak, but Xu Rui interrupted him. Xu Rui said coldly: "The enemy's attack just now was just to create suspicion and to cover up their intention to retreat."
"What? The Japanese attack just now was just to spread suspicion?"
"The Japanese want to withdraw? How is this possible? Why do the Japanese want to withdraw?"
"Yes, it is clearly the Japanese who have the advantage at the moment, and our thirty-fifth army is at the disadvantage."
Yao Dahai and several senior advisers present were immediately confused and could not understand why the Japanese wanted to withdraw.
But Xu Rui knew it from the beginning and said with a sneer: "It's just that at this time, the little devil still wants to escape from Wuyuan, but it is simply wishful thinking."
