I didn't expect you to refuse Chief Xue's invitation! ”

After a while, Yang Wenyu asked Leng Jie with a smile.

"I definitely have to refuse, I don't want to be a staff officer, I'm not used to it. I still like to command and fight on the battlefield, and I still forget it when I am a staff officer, and I don't have to go! Leng Jie smiled and said.

He is just one of the reasons.

Xue Laohu seems to be the commander of the theater, but in fact, he has no real name, and in the ninth theater, Chen Cheng has the final say.

Xue Laohu seems to be commanding a war zone, but in fact he is a rootless duckweed, even if he has strength, it is difficult to really stand out in this faction-ridden Kuomintang army.

I didn't look at the fact that after the Anti-Japanese War, the famous Anti-Japanese Tiger General had fewer records in the War of Liberation, that is, the performance of losing power.

Unless Leng Jie is a fool, he will turn his back on the civil engineering department and switch to Xue Laohu.

"That's what you said, it's not interesting to be a deputy chief of staff, it's better to command a war.

However, this time our division has suffered a lot of losses, and I don't know when this recruit will be replenished. Yang Wenjing said worriedly.

"There shouldn't be much fighting in the short term, and we don't need to be in a hurry. It's a big deal, the two of us talk to the chiefs, and it's all a small problem. ”

After all, the matter of the deputy chief of staff was an episode, and Guan Linzheng came over to say hello to Leng Jie later, and he also meant to solicit.

However, Guan Linzheng was closed, because there were contradictions between the top and bottom of the 54th Army and Guan Linzheng in the counterattack at Jilong Mountain.

Although the 18th Division has been transferred, this contradiction has remained.

At this time, Leng Jie naturally couldn't be as ambiguous as Xue Laohu before, and directly refused Guan Linzheng's solicitation, coupled with the Ming Dynasty sarcasm of Chen Lie and other generals of the 54th Army, the scene was very embarrassing for a while.

Fortunately, Guan Linzheng did not take the opportunity to play, and this matter can be regarded as the past, but many people saw the incompatibility between the 54th Army and Guan Linzheng.

Of course, there is no trouble on the battlefield because of this incident.

But a few years later, Guan Linzheng, with the support of He Jingzhi, let Zhang Yaoming serve as the commander of the 54th Army, which caused dissatisfaction among the entire 54th Army and intensified the contradiction between Guan Linzheng and Chen Cheng, and finally forced Zhang Yaoming to resign as the commander of the 54th Army.

Of course, that's all for later.

。。。。。。

"Battalion commander, is it time for us to retreat?"

Zhangzhuang is a village in the area east of Qinshui where the mountains and plains meet, and for the rest of the troops, this place is nothing, just a small village of two or three hundred people.

However, this place was very important to the Eighth Regiment of Decisive Death, because it was located in an important stronghold of the Eighth Regiment of Decisive Death out of the plain to the east, so Lehi sent a company to garrison it here.

Although this company has hundreds of people, they are all infantry, not even a horse, where is the opponent of a cavalry battalion, so this cavalry battalion quickly captured Zhangzhuang.

"Retreat what? Could it be that the group of people from the Eighth Road can still beat us? Borrow the three of them guts, and they won't dare! ”

A battalion commander in his 30s said with a dissatisfied look on his face, eating a roast chicken as he spoke.

"That's definitely not daring, we've looked for them a few times before, and we haven't seen any reaction from them, it seems that they are still a group of cowards!" The company commander next to him said with a smile.

If the Japanese army heard about it, they would definitely despise this company commander, not a single squadron of them dared to go to Lehi's trouble, and only a cavalry battalion dared to move the tiger's whiskers.

"But there are no good things in this village, and after rummaging through the village, this little bit of chicken and duck is not enough for our brother to have a good meal.

Tomorrow, I will send someone to reconnoiter in other places, see if there is any place where the Eight Roads are stationed nearby, and go to fight the autumn wind, can't I come out this time and return empty-handed, right? "The battalion commander was clearly not satisfied with just capturing such a small village.

"Yes, Battalion Commander!"

"Let the brothers have a good meal, rest early in the evening, and go to do a big deal tomorrow!" The battalion commander commanded.

Throughout the village, there are such scenes in various places, several people or a dozen people gather in a heap, light a fire in the middle, and then set up a shelf to roast the looted chickens, ducks, sheep and other livestock.

In addition to these, they also grabbed a lot of grain, which was all fine white flour and millet.

The people in the village also dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, these people directly robbed them of these things in the name of the Communist Party, and if they resisted, they would be severely beaten or even shot.

It's just that you lose some food, so you won't be unable to live.

But if you lose your life just for this little bit of food, then it's not worth it.

After eating and drinking, the cavalry began to fall asleep, and although there were also sentinels on duty, their vigilance was still lax.

And in the darkness of the night, two unidentified troops appeared outside the village, neither wearing military uniforms, but ordinary clothes, looking like bandits.

It's not that there are no bandits in this vicinity, but how can the bandits be so well equipped with these two armies, in addition to a large number of Japanese-style rifles, there are also small steel cannons, mortars, and there are almost no 92 infantry guns and mountain artillery.

If you put on the uniform of the Japanese army, it is estimated that you will really be able to get through the trick.

"Who?"

Perhaps it was the unidentified troops who accidentally entered the village and alarmed the war horses, which soon attracted the attention of the sentries of the cavalry battalion of the 40th Army.

"Hit!"

Seeing that the sneak attack failed, Lehi directly ordered a strong attack, and soon gunshots rang out in the village.

"What's going on? Where did the gunshots come from? ”

The commander of the cavalry battalion rushed out in a hurry, disheveled, and the buttons of his military uniform were not buttoned.

A soldier ran in in a panic, "Battalion commander, someone is attacking us, there are a lot of them!" ”

"What? Who ate the bear's heart leopard gall? How dare you hit us? The battalion commander scolded.

"I don't know, it's too dark to see what military uniform the other party is wearing. But there are a lot of devils' 38 covers in the gunshots, as well as devils' machine guns and small steel cannons! ”

"Is it a devil? I didn't hear of any devils around here! The battalion commander was also puzzled.

"Battalion commander, let's find a way, the enemy's attack is too fierce, if it is really a devil, we are not enough to see it!"

"What are you doing? Evacuate! ”

Thinking that it might really be a devil, this big night, the battalion commander didn't want to fight hard with the devil, in this wilderness, he couldn't even find a reinforcement.

Li Hai originally thought that this cavalry battalion would have a strong will to fight, because this cavalry battalion was unexpectedly subordinate to the 14th Cavalry Brigade and had participated in the Battle of Taierzhuang.

But this fight only found out that this was not the case at all, and the battle lasted less than twenty minutes, and many cavalry rode their horses and ran to the east.

Because the speed was so fast, Lehi's men couldn't catch up at all.

In order to prevent these people from riding away from the horses, he had people set up machine guns to block the entrance to the village, and the people could not do it, but the horses had to stay.

Unlike the battalion commander and others who ran away at the beginning with dozens of horses, the second wave of cavalrymen who wanted to run were fired back by machine guns.

As a large number of soldiers of the Eighth Regiment rushed into the village, seeing the hopeless cavalry escaping, they laid down their arms and surrendered!
