Wang Husheng said: "The post-war recovery work in the base area is my responsibility. Of course I will be responsible, but you can't pick on others, Old Xu. The main force also has to come to help.?"
Xu Rui said: "I'm afraid the main force of the group won't be able to help for the time being."
Wang Husheng couldn't help being stunned when he heard Xu Rui stacking picks so directly.
Leng Tiefeng, on the other hand, even the hairs on his body stood up. He had already realized what Xu Rui wanted to do.
Sure enough, Xu Rui turned around and shouted outside: "Old Mo, immediately notify the chief officers of each battalion and company to come to the regiment headquarters for a meeting. Tell them about the emergency military meeting. Anyone who dares to be late will not be allowed to join the independent regiment in the future."
"Yes!" Mo Zichen agreed and immediately picked up the phone to notify everyone.
Wang Husheng still didn't understand and asked: "Old Xu, what do you want to do?"
Xu Rui did not answer, but just made a riddle: "You will know later."
Not long after, the chief officers of each battalion and company also arrived one after another. Like Xu Rui, these battalion and company-level chief officers also participated in the firefighting during the day, and they were equally disgraced. They didn't even have time to wipe their heads when they returned to their respective command posts.
After being embarrassed, Xu Rui called again and called the regiment headquarters, but no one complained.
The chief officers of each battalion company were all here, but Xu Rui just silently lit up a cigarette and started smoking.
Seeing that Xu Rui didn't say anything and was just minding his own cigarette, He Guangming, Yao Lei, Gao Chu, Zhu Chen and other battalion commanders who joined the independent regiment later became a little impatient. Yao was the most impatient.
Lei was about to stand up and speak, but was grabbed by Li Haisheng, who was sitting next to him.
"Don't talk." Li Hai whispered.
"What do you mean?" Yao Lei asked confused.
Li Hai shook his head and didn't say much, but from the extremely serious expression on Li Hai's face, Yao Lei could see a hint of dignity, and he sat back on the stool obediently.
After smoking half of the cigarette, Xu Rui snuffed out the remaining half. Said.
`
Seeing Xu Rui stubbing out the remaining half of the cigarette, Leng Tiefeng, Wan Zhongshan, Li Hai, Hei Pi and other battalion commanders who had been in the independent regiment for a long time immediately brightened up.
Xu Rui raised his head, Leng Jun's eyes glanced around the faces of more than a dozen battalion commanders, and said in a deep voice: "To say that we just wiped out a Japanese detachment, with more than 8,000 people, this is a rare feat.
Such great victories as the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Xuzhou, but a single battle has not achieved such a great result! For this, we really should hold a victory meeting to celebrate, and we are happy that he only has three days and three nights to rest, but
…”
After a pause, Xu Rui said in a more serious tone: "But why can't I be happy in my heart?"
"Old Xu..." Wang Husheng was about to interrupt, but was interrupted by Xu Rui without explanation and extremely arrogantly.
Xu Rui continued: "Yes, in this anti-mopping operation, we completely annihilated the Kawaguchi detachment. We killed more than 8,000 Japs, but did we really win? No, we did not win! Because the battlefield is in
Dameishan, in our base area, our base area has paid an unimaginable heavy price!"
Speaking of this, Xu Rui's expression became excited: "In the fighting that lasted for nearly half a month, more than 200 brothers in our base area died on the battlefield, and more than 500 fellow villagers were brutally murdered by the Japanese. What's even more hateful is that
Yes, the little devils also dispatched more than a hundred bombers to blow up more than 10,000 houses in Meizhen and a dozen surrounding villages. Hundreds of thousands of villagers in the Dameishan base area have become homeless. You say,
We still have the nerve to hold a victory celebration and celebrate?"
Wang Husheng sighed softly, but did not stand up again to try to refute Xu Rui. Although he still disagreed with Xu Rui's point of view in his heart, he still insisted that victory is victory. This is different from the loss of the base area. The Dameishan base area is paying for
They paid a heavy price, but this cannot obliterate this unprecedented victory of the independent regiment.?.
??`
However, there is one thing Wang Husheng thinks Xu Rui is right about. It is really not appropriate to hold a victory celebration now.
Speaking of excitement, Xu Rui punched the table hard and continued: "So I want to say that we actually defeated this anti-mopping operation, and we actually suffered a loss! We suffered a big loss!"
He Guangming sat aside without saying a word with his head lowered, but he was thinking in his heart that Xu Rui's words were a bit pretentious.
Yes, the Japanese raids that lasted for more than half a month, especially today's heavy bombing, did cause heavy losses to the Dameishan base area. The casualties were actually not many, at least compared to the 9,000 killed by the Japanese, they were insignificant, but including
The damage to houses, crops, furniture and other property is difficult to estimate.
The total value of more than 10,000 private houses alone is as high as several million yuan in legal currency!
But one code equals another. The losses in the base area belong to the common people, but the military exploits belong to the Independent Regiment. You cannot count the losses of the people in the base area to the Independent Regiment, nor can you offset the losses of the people in the base area by one thousand to the Independent Regiment.
The military exploits of more than 500 officers and soldiers, this is unfair!
"Do you think it's unfair for me to say this?" Xu Rui seemed to have guessed what He Guangming was thinking. His eyes deliberately stayed on He Guangming's face for two seconds, and then continued, "Do you think that the losses in the base area
It belongs to the common people, but the military exploits belong to the officers and soldiers of the independent regiment. One code belongs to the other, and these two cannot be confused?"
After a pause at this point, Xu Rui said again: "I will tell you today that it is really hard to distinguish between the two. They really must be discussed together! Our army and the people have always been fish.
Regarding the relationship with water, can you separate fish from water? Can this fish still live if it leaves the water?"
"Bang!" Leng Tiefeng slammed his fist on the table, stood up suddenly and said, "Old Xu, don't say anything. Our independent regiment did not do a good job in this anti-mopping operation. Just say it straight. Now
what to do?"
"Yes, this counter-mopping campaign was indeed not carried out well, and we cannot do justice to the people in the base area."
"But we will never let the people be wronged, and we will avenge them!"
"Yes, we must avenge this revenge. We must not suffer such a big loss in vain!"
"Well said, when has our independent group suffered such a big loss since its establishment?"
"Commander, just give the order, where to fight and how to fight? Our 2nd Battalion is willing to fight as a forward!"
Leng Tiefeng's words were like a spark falling into a pile of firewood, instantly detonating the battalion commanders of the 2nd and 3rd battalions. They all rolled up their sleeves and asked for a fight.
Looking at the angry battalion commanders, He Guangming seemed to understand something.
He Guangming has always been very curious in the past, why are our troops so tenacious?
Chairman Chiang mobilized millions of troops to encircle and suppress five times, but failed to wipe out the Red Army. Finally, because of the opponent's mistakes, he drove the Red Army to the barren northwest, and then confidently sent the Northeastern Army to encircle and suppress the army. The result was known as
The elite Northeast Army defeated the exhausted Red Army.
Their Northwest Army did not get any advantages in fighting the Red Army.
It turned out that He Guangming had always been unable to figure it out, but today, he seemed to understand it somewhat.
It turned out that He Guangming had always thought that the declared love between the army and the people was just talk, but today He Guangming finally understood that this slogan of the People's Liberation Army is not just a slogan, but a creed that they practice, and they truly regard the general public as theirs.
Relatives! That’s why we really get the support of the people!
Xu Rui raised his hand fiercely, and the battalion commanders who were calling for battle immediately shut their mouths. The clamor that filled the entire command post just now stopped abruptly, as if cut by a sharp knife.
When the entire command post fell silent, Xu Rui continued: "Our independent regiment has a rule. If you have a grudge, take revenge, and take revenge immediately! We have suffered such a big loss in this anti-mopping operation. Do you think this can be so?
never mind?"
"cannot!"
"cannot!"
"cannot!"
More than a dozen battalion commanders responded loudly, and even He Guangming couldn't help shouting in response.
"Yes, we can't just let this matter go! Our independent regiment has never suffered such a big loss since the day we formed an army!" Xu Rui said ferociously, "The little devil gave us a punch, and we must retaliate.
Give them a kick, it's the right thing to do and not to go back. Since the little devils dare to attack our base, we dare to attack their important town, Feicheng!"
As soon as the word "Feicheng" came out, the entire command post became silent in an instant. Even Heipi, who had screamed the loudest just now, opened his mouth wide and forgot to breathe.
My darling, let’s hit Feicheng?
Feicheng is the capital of Anhui Province and a very important transit point for the Japanese!
Since the Jinpu Railway was destroyed by the independent group, the Feibeng Highway has become the only lifeline to support the Japanese group going north, so Feicheng has also become an advance base, and all the food, medicine, ammunition and clothing provided to the group going north must be
Transfer from Feicheng, and this is probably the main reason why Xu Rui decided to go to Feicheng.
But how can Feicheng be so easy to fight? In addition to the military depot troops at the transit station, the Japanese veterans waiting to return to the army after treatment and recovery in the field hospital, there is also a Feicheng garrison brigade specifically responsible for security tasks. In addition,
There is also a puppet military division organized with two brigades. Although these puppet troops are not good at fighting, they are more than enough to defend the city.
In other words, the Japanese and puppet troops in Feicheng totaled 20,000 people!
The Dameishan Independent Regiment has just finished a major battle, and the maximum number of troops it can dispatch is more than 900!
This difference in military strength is too great. They say that you need three times more troops to attack a city. Xu Rui is better, he only dares to attack a city with only one-twentieth of his troops!
Oh my God, this is no longer arrogant, it is simply crazy!
Xu Rui has been so stimulated by the anger of hatred that he has lost his mind!
Wang Husheng felt that it was necessary for him to exercise the authority of the political commissar for the first time.
At that moment, Wang Husheng stood up and said, "Old Xu, calm down first."
