The wild dog didn't know what this military flag meant. He just thought that such a piece of cloth was of no use, so he threw it on the ground. Then he looked around inside the tent and found a telephone. The wild dog found this piece of cloth.
The regiment headquarters has seen it and knows that this thing is quite rare. If you take it back, you will definitely be able to remember it.
At that moment, the wild dog took off the phone and hooked up the spare phone cord that the Japanese had left in the corner of the tent. After taking only two steps, he felt that he had to take care of the things in his arms while holding the gun in one hand and the phone in the other.
The wire was very inconvenient, so I turned back and picked up the military flag that I had just thrown on the ground.
The wild dog rolled up a bag with the military flag, packed the telephone and wires together, slung it over his shoulder, and then rushed out of the tent happily, only to encounter the Ten Thousand Mountains head-on.
"Are you like a dog?" Wan Zhongshan scolded her face to face, "Let's go, hurry up."
The wild dog was pleased with the scolding and said: "Batalion Commander, I seized a telephone."
"Really? That's enough to record third-class merit." After Wan Zhongshan finished speaking, he cursed again, "Hurry up, hurry up."
After finishing speaking, Wan Zhongshan looked around again and cursed: "And you guys, stop fucking cleaning the battlefield. The little devil's artillery is about to bombard you at the word. If you don't want to die, please retreat quickly, retreat quickly!"
The officers and soldiers of the independent regiment who were collecting guns and ammunition on the battlefield stood up and retreated.
Seeing the guns and ammunition scattered everywhere on the battlefield, Wan Zhongshan was also jealous, but there was nothing he could do. Before the attack, the regiment commander had issued a strict order. Once the Japanese were completely wiped out, they would retreat immediately and were not allowed to stay in the Japanese positions for even longer.
For a second, Wan Zhongshan faithfully carried out Xu Rui's order, led his troops to retreat decisively, and escaped the bombardment.
Xu Dekun compromised when executing the order and left a company to clean the battlefield. As a result, the company left behind was retaliated by artillery fire from the 10th Regiment of the Japanese Artillery.
During the attack, less than twenty people were killed, but in the Japanese retaliatory shelling, more than fifty people died.
As a result, as soon as he returned to the fortress, Xu Dekun was scolded by Xu Rui.
"You have donkey hair in your ears. Didn't you hear my order, or did you not take my order seriously at all?" Xu Rui rarely loses his temper, but this time he got angry. Xu Rui was really angry.
Xu Dekun's behavior may not seem serious, but it is actually very bad because it is disobedience on the battlefield.
To borrow a line from Liang Jian, disobedience on the battlefield cannot be tolerated.
Therefore, even if there is only a small sign, it must be suppressed immediately and decisively!
Xu Dekun was trained like a grandson by Xu Rui. He lowered his head and defended: "Captain, I just saw so many guns and ammunition scattered on the battlefield. I felt it was a pity, so I asked the 7th Company to stay and clean the battlefield."
"Guns and ammunition, guns and ammunition, do you only have guns and ammunition in your eyes?" Xu Rui said coldly, "Am I short of your 3rd Battalion's guns, or am I short of your 3rd Battalion's ammunition?"
Although the arsenal in the Dameishan base area has not yet produced a single round of bullets, Xu Rui has never been short of guns and ammunition for his troops due to sufficient inventory, especially the three main battalions of 1, 2, and 3, who have ammunition every time they fight.
Don’t worry, there’s never a shortage of guns and ammunition.
Xu Dekun whispered: "Our independent regiment is not short of guns and ammunition, but isn't the militia very short of it? I want to get these guns and ammunition back. Although we can't use them ourselves, there is still room for the county brigade.
It's good if it's used by small groups of militiamen, otherwise it would be a shame."
"Is it more important, the guns and ammunition, or the lives of our brothers?" Xu Rui said coldly, "Before the attack, I repeatedly told you two that once the little devil suffers a big loss, he will definitely launch a retaliatory bombardment. You
Even if you don’t listen, why don’t you listen to what you say? These more than fifty brothers died because of you!”
Xu Dekun lowered his head when Xu Rui said that and did not dare to say a word.
Xu Rui snorted again, turned around and shouted: "Leizi, pull Xu Dekun out and kill him!"
Lei Xiang, who always only listened to Xu Rui, immediately agreed, stepped forward and pushed Xu Dekun out.
Seeing that Xu Rui wanted to shoot him, Xu Dekun was stunned. Everyone present was also stunned. He Guangming, Wan Zhongshan and other battalion commanders actually forgot to plead for mercy.
Fortunately, I met Wang Husheng on the way and was stopped by him.
"Old Xu, what are you doing?" Wang Husheng came in and persuaded him, "Even if Battalion Commander Xu makes a mistake, he won't be shot. This isn't treason and surrendering to the enemy. If he doesn't, he certainly won't be shot."
In fact, Xu Rui just wanted to scare Xu Dekun, and at the same time also shock the other battalion commanders. He got off the donkey down the slope and said with a face: "You are the political commissar, so tell me how to deal with it?"
Wang Husheng scratched his head and said, "How about you be demoted to deputy battalion commander or acting battalion commander, and then you will be punished with meritorious service?"
"Deputy battalion commander, he's cheap." Xu Rui said angrily, "Go and be a cook in the cooking class."
"Okay, okay, let's be a cook, then be a cook." After Wang Husheng said this, he waved his hand, and Xu Dekun reported to the regimental cooking class in disgrace. However, Xu Dekun didn't have much objection to this punishment. In any case, Seven
More than fifty veterans of the company died because of his mistakes, and he should indeed receive punishment.
What's more, the position of regimental cook squad leader is not that unbearable.
Let’s not talk about the distant past, let’s talk about recent times. Gao Chu was raped just because he made a mistake, and he also worked as a cook in the regimental cooking class for more than half a month? But in the end, this guy was not only reinstated as an officer, but also promoted to a battalion.
Commander, Xu Dekun has reason to believe that this is just a test for him by the regiment commander. As long as he performs well, he will still have a chance to be reinstated.
After dealing with Xu Dekun, Xu Rui finally turned to He Guangming and Wan Zhongshan with a smile on his face.
"Although the 3rd Battalion made some small mistakes in this counterattack, the overall performance was still very good. It was able to completely annihilate the 10th Infantry Regiment, the pillar of the 10th Division, under the eyes of the main force of the 10th Division.
"This is not easy!" Wang Husheng said with a smile, "For this reason, the head of the military department sent a special congratulatory message."
He Guangming said in surprise: "The head of the military department knows the result so soon?"
"What do you think?" Xu Rui snorted, and then said, "Dameishan Broadcasting Station conducted a live follow-up of this counterattack through the special program 'Battlefield Focus'. Just before the 10th Regiment of the Japanese Infantry was completely annihilated,
As soon as the team arrived, the news had already spread throughout central China and even the whole of China through radio waves."
Wang Husheng also said: "This is also specifically requested by the Party Central Committee and the head of the military department, because the current situation in various anti-Japanese battlefields across the country is a bit unfavorable, especially the situation of the National Army in the Wuhan battlefield is very tight, and it is a time when morale is urgently needed to be boosted.
, so we specially arranged this battlefield live broadcast."
Xu Rui continued: "It is a pity that we still failed to capture the regiment flag of the 10th Infantry Regiment this time. Otherwise, it would have been a huge blow to the morale of the little devils, and in turn it would have been a huge blow to the main force of the National Army on the Wuhan battlefield."
, it’s a great encouragement, it’s such a pity.”
Since the formation of the 1st and 2nd Guards Infantry Regiments in accordance with German standards, the modern Japanese Army has continued a tradition, that is, every time a formally organized infantry or cavalry regiment is formed, the contemporary emperor will personally give the regiment flag. This
The official title of the regimental flag is the Army Royal Flag.
According to the regulations of the Japanese Army, if the military flag is present, it will be organized, and if the military flag is lost, it will be sanctioned.
Of course, the "lost" mentioned here does not mean lost, but specifically refers to being seized.
Once the military flag is captured by the enemy, it means that the regiment has lost all its glory and will be officially abolished.
But if it burns itself, then even if the entire army of the regiment is annihilated, it can still retain its establishment and still have a chance to make a comeback. For example, the Kagoshima regiment that was completely wiped out by the independent regiment in Feicheng, because it was completely annihilated
Before that, he burned the regiment flag on his own, and finally avoided the fate of being revoked.
There was also the 106th Division that was completely wiped out in Wanjialing, and the flags of the four regiments it belonged to were all burned on their own, so these four regiments were rebuilt, and the 106th Division was also rebuilding the four infantry regiments.
On the basis of this, the organization was quickly restored and participated in the Second Battle of De'an.
Hearing Xu Rui talk about the military flag, the wild dog following Wan Zhongshan suddenly said: "Captain, I seem to have picked up a military flag. It looks quite special. I don't know if it is the coalition flag you mentioned.
"
Xu Rui asked: "You picked up a military flag? What kind of military flag is it?"
Wild Dog said: "This military flag is different from the common plaster flags. In addition to the plaster pattern, there are also red patterns around it, just like the sun in the sky."
"The rising sun flag, this is the alliance flag!" Xu Rui was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Where is the flag? Where is the flag?"
"Where is the flag?" The wild dog scratched his head and said blankly, "Yes, where did I throw the flag?"
"Fuck you." Xu Rui was so anxious that he couldn't help but cursed and said, "Think about it, wild dog, where did you throw it?"
The wild dog recalled it carefully for a moment, and suddenly shouted: "I remembered, I used that flag as a baggage, wrapped it with the seized telephone and wires, and gave it to the logistics department."
"Let's go!" Xu Rui immediately turned around and left.
Xu Rui led Wang Husheng and his party to the logistics department in a hurry. After rummaging for a long time, they finally found the rising sun flag in the corner of the warehouse where the sundries were placed. Xu Rui unfolded the rising sun flag and saw the flag in the lower right corner.
The Chinese characters "Tenth Infantry Regiment" are embroidered from right to left. Isn't this the flag of the 10th Infantry Regiment?
It was confirmed that he was the captain of the 10th Infantry Regiment, and Wang Husheng also became excited.
"Who is that?" Wang Husheng immediately turned around and called to his guards, "Go and notify the Propaganda Department and ask them to send reporters immediately. Let them bring cameras. Go, go!"
