"I'm really not afraid of bursting my stomach." Xu Rui chuckled and said to Luo Zhongyi on the hospital bed, "Chief of Staff Luo, when I was a child, Xu Rui's family was poor and I had a big appetite. No matter how much I ate, I couldn't hold it down."
After a pause, Xu Rui added, "Besides, the Osaka division can only be regarded as an appetizer, how can it support me?"
At this time, nearly sixteen hours had passed since the main force of the Dameishan Military Division encircled the Osaka Division and the 8th Independent Tank Regiment. After Luo Zhongyi was rescued, he was immediately sent to the field hospital and treated by
Oluhara Junko performed the surgery herself and finally took her life back from the Lord of Hell.
Xu Rui and Wang Husheng also rushed over to visit as soon as possible, just in time for Luo Zhongyi to wake up.
"The Osaka Division is just an appetizer?" Luo Zhongyi said, "Commander Xu, how can the Japanese be embarrassed by your words?"
"Compared with the Himeji Division and the Kumamoto Division, the Osaka Division is really just an appetizer." Xu Rui chuckled and said to Luo Zhongyi, "Chief of Staff Luo, please stop calling me Commander, too
Just call me Xiao Xu. No matter what, you are an old Red Army veteran. As a junior, I cannot bear to be called you like that."
Luo Zhongyi smiled and said: "Then don't call me Chief of Staff, call me Lao Luo."
"Okay, call me Lao Luo." Xu Rui said with a smile, "Lao Luo, just rest and recuperate first, and we'll talk about it after the battle is over. Your Central Jiangsu Special Agent Group really helped us a lot this time. We'll wait for the counter-mopping up."
It's over, our Dameishan Military Division will definitely give you a big gift. In short, I guarantee that you, Lao Luo, will be satisfied."
"This is what you said." Luo Zhongyi said, "If you are not satisfied, I will scold you."
"No problem." Xu Rui patted his chest and said, "If this thing doesn't work out, I'll kill myself with a piece of tofu before you come to scold me, Lao Luo."
After exchanging a few words, Xu Rui and Wang Husheng said goodbye.
Watching Xu Rui and Wang Husheng leave, a battalion commander in the same ward couldn't help but start to look forward to it. This battalion commander is also the only surviving cadre of the Central Jiangsu Military Region's special agent regiment. Of course, it should be noted that the entire Central Jiangsu Military Region's special agents
There were more than a thousand people in the regiment, but in the end less than ten people survived, so Xu Rui really owed the Suzhong Military Region a big favor!
The battalion commander said longingly: "Chief of Staff, how many good things do you think Commander Xu will give us?"
"What do you think?" Luo Zhongyi joked, "How many good things do you think he should give us?"
The battalion commander said: "Is it too little equipment for one regiment? It seems too much for one brigade."
"How much equipment does a brigade have? You only have this much potential. If Xu Rui doesn't give me a division's equipment this time, I won't be done with him! Oh, I also need to add all the equipment of an artillery battalion!" Luo Zhongyi said.
I was so excited that I accidentally touched the wound, and I couldn't help but groan.
The battalion commander asked again: "Chief of Staff, do you think the Dameishan Military Division can completely annihilate the Osaka Division?"
"There shouldn't be any problem." Luo Zhongyi felt uncertain and said, "Seeing how awesome Xu Rui is, if he didn't have some confidence, he wouldn't dare to boast so much in front of me."
(Dividing line)
Xu Rui really wasn't boasting, the Osaka Division was indeed about to be destroyed.
In the previous sixteen hours, the Dameishan Military Division had thwarted six breakout attempts by the Osaka Division and even reduced the encirclement to a radius of two kilometers.
Now, the Osaka Division has been trapped at the foot of Qingniuling, unable to move.
This is also due to Xu Rui's calmness, or cold-bloodedness. Even when the Wakayama Regiment of the Osaka Division broke through the Qingniuling defense line and broke into Meixian County to start a street battle with the Central Jiangsu Special Agents, Xu Rui still refused to give in.
The Third Regiment returned to aid Meixian, but was strictly ordered to stay in Pu County to recuperate.
In the days and nights when the main force of the Dameishan Military Division was fighting against the Kumamoto Division on the Western Front battlefield, the Central Jiangsu Military Region's special agents, the Meixian militia, cadet soldiers and even the children's regiment were engaged in brutal street fighting with the Japanese Wakayama Regiment in Meixian County.
However, He Shuya's third regiment has been recuperating in Pucheng. The entire regiment's officers and soldiers only eat and sleep every day.
Therefore, when the Third Regiment finally received Xu Rui's order, it was as energetic as a tiger descending from the mountain!
Therefore, after a series of fierce battles, the first regiment, the second regiment, and the security regiment were exhausted, but the third regiment was more vigorous. When the Osaka Division's breakout force encountered the third regiment's blocking force, the result could be imagined.
I know, because the physical strength of the Osaka Division is not much better than that of the main force of the Dameishan Military Division.
In addition to being exhausted, the Osaka Division is also short of ammunition!
Due to insufficient ammunition, the Eighth Independent Tank Regiment, which cooperated in coordinated operations, was unable to perform effectively. This was also the main reason why the Osaka Division suffered disastrous defeats in six breakouts! It should be noted that He Dacong's tank company was not allowed to participate in the battle, so until now
So far, no real tank battle has broken out between the Chinese and Japanese armies.
As soon as Xu Rui and Wang Husheng returned to the headquarters, they immediately held a military meeting.
At this time, the encirclement of the Osaka Division and the 8th Independent Tank Regiment has been completed, and the trench fortifications in three directions have been basically constructed. As long as no major accidents occur, the Osaka Division and the 8th Independent Tank Regiment will
It was no longer possible for the Eighth Regiment to break out of the encirclement, so Xu Rui dared to call the chief officers of each unit for a meeting.
When Xu Rui and Wang Husheng walked into the conference room, except for He Shuya and Huang Shouxin who were full of energy, the other chief officials such as He Guangming and Wan Zhongshan all had their heads drooped and looked weak.
To be honest, it is really tiring to fight continuously, and my body is so strong that my bones cannot stand it.
However, when they saw Xu Rui and Wang Husheng coming in, the chief officials present at the meeting cheered up.
Xu Rui's eyes swept across the faces of the attending officials and said in a deep voice: "I know that everyone is already very tired. In fact, I am also tired. I wish I could close my eyes now and sleep with him for three days and three nights. But,
No, we haven’t finished our work yet, and we can’t rest yet, so lift your heads and straighten your bodies!”
Wang Husheng also said: "Everyone, hold on a little longer. After this battle, I will make the decision and give you a seven-day holiday!"
Upon hearing this, the chief officials present at the meeting immediately cheered, and their spirits finally improved. It would be better to take a vacation.
Xu Rui raised his hand to suppress the noise of the crowd and said in a deep voice: "Old Wang has decided to take a seven-day holiday. That is an exception. Don't let him down." After a pause, he continued, "Now, I
Let's talk about the next general offensive plan. The Osaka Division was originally a famous useless division. The Wakayama Regiment, the only one that could still fight, was crippled by the Soviet Central Secret Service Regiment, and then completely annihilated by the garrison regiment, and even
The regimental flag was also surrendered by the security regiment."
After saying that, Xu Rui said to Gao Chu: "Lao Gao, this credit must be attributed to the Suzhong Special Agent Group. You are not allowed to argue. The captured regiment flag must be handed over to them when you return, do you understand?"
"I know." Gao Chu replied a little weakly.
Xu Rui continued: "In short, the Osaka Division is a famous useless division. In addition, it has spent so long in Qingniuling and is already exhausted. Therefore, it is not a problem to eliminate the Osaka Division. The problem is, coordination
The 8th Independent Tank Regiment in action.”
He Guangming said: "This is not difficult. In the previous breakout battles, the 8th Independent Tank Regiment also participated in the battle, but its performance was just like that. It was nothing remarkable."
Xu Rui said: "That's because they have no more artillery shells."
Compared with Western tanks, the Little Devil's tanks actually have a lot of ammunition. For example, the Type 95 light tank has 120 rounds of ammunition for the main gun, while the Type 97 medium tank has a main gun caliber of 57mm.
Its ammunition reserve is also 120 rounds, while the same type of Western tanks only have half of the ammunition reserve.
Among the 120 rounds of ammunition prepared by the Japanese tank, there are 80 grenade rounds and the remaining 20 rounds are armor-piercing rounds.
These eighty rounds of grenades are used to support the infantry, and the twenty rounds of armor-piercing rounds are used to deal with enemy tanks. However, considering that the Dameishan Independent Regiment is not equipped with armored troops, the tanks of the Eighth Independent Tank Regiment
No armor-piercing shells were left behind, but all artillery shells were used to support infantry operations.
In the previous attack on Qingniuling, the artillery regiment of the Osaka Division basically did not play a role. The 8th Independent Tank Regiment was basically providing artillery support to the infantry. Therefore, after a few days, the independent tanks
The Eighth Regiment's artillery shells were basically consumed, and after six failed breakouts, there were very few left.
He Guangming said: "It is precisely because the Japanese tanks have no shells that it is not difficult to deal with them."
Xu Rui asked: "Lao He, tell me how you plan to deal with the Japanese tanks?"
He Guangming said: "What's the plan? Just send the blasters to blow up the explosives."
"Go away!" Xu Rui said angrily, "If it could explode, would I still wait until now?"
"Can't blow it up?" He Guangming asked blankly, "Then how can we rectify it? Is it possible that we can still seize it?"
He Guangming and other battalion leaders did not know that the Third Regiment had captured seventeen Type 95 light tanks in Pucheng, and they did not know that the engineer battalion had formed a tank company with these seventeen tanks. Of course Xu Rui
He received the news immediately, but he did not tell He Guangming and others about the news because it was not necessary.
At that moment, Xu Rui said to He Shuya: "Nerd, tell them, how did you capture those seventeen Japanese tanks from the tank company of the engineering battalion?"
"What, the tank company has a tank?"
"Seventeen Japanese tanks were captured?"
"My dear, can't that be a real tank company?"
"Damn it, so our military division also has real armored forces?"
"Damn it, does this mean we can fight tank battles with the Japanese?"
He Guangming and a dozen other chief officials immediately became energetic after hearing this, and the fatigue on their bodies disappeared instantly, because this news was indeed exciting.
