Chapter 4 The soul is gone, what do you want to do!? (4th Watch)
I'm about to see the division commander Long Muhan, Xiao Zhan doesn't have a good impression of this person, psychology calls it the "projection effect", and this projection comes from historical materials. It was because Long Muhan escaped from the enemy that it indirectly led to the biggest tragedy in modern China.
(The so-called projection effect is simply that the other person's thoughts, behaviors, and opinions are inconsistent with one's own, resulting in a bad impression effect.) )
Xiao Zhan is going to stop this tragedy from happening, so he let it go!
Not long after, Regiment Commander Wu took Xiao Zhan to the division headquarters, and at this time, the people at the division headquarters had already begun to be busy with the evacuation matters, and Long Muhan was still discussing something with several officers.
Long Muhan was surprised when he saw Head Wu at the door. He knew the purpose of the other party's visit this time, so the last thing Long Muhan wanted to see was this veteran of the 88th Division.
Escaping from the battle is not a glorious thing, Long Muhan still put away the resentment against Gui Yongqing in his heart, stepped forward and said politely: "Head Wu, you came here this time ......"
Long Muhan lowered the volume of his speech, and Xiao Zhan could hear from the timbre that the division commander was a little weak-hearted.
"I can't carry out the order to retreat."
Head Wu's tone was firm, he had already come to his senses this time.
Long Muhan asked, "Why?" ”
Regiment Commander Wu frowned and said sonorously: "Because I don't want to be a deserter!" If this is an order of the army group command, I carry it out; If not, it will be difficult for subordinates to obey! ”
Long Muhan looked back at the staff officers behind him, and then said with resentment: "Do I want to withdraw?" It was he, Gui Yongqing, who didn't even say hello, and ran away with his 3 divisions first, and actually left us as cannon fodder, is there such a truth in the world? ”
"Division Commander ......"
Without waiting for Commander Wu to speak, Long Muhan said excitedly: "Commander Wu, you are a veteran of the 88th Division, I understand your mood at this time, but the current 88th Division is not the previous 88th Division, it is a team that has just been reorganized, and it has not yet formed combat effectiveness." Most of the 1st Division was recruits, but even so, we fought hard with the little devils for three days and three nights. Captain Wu, have I flinched? ”
"Divisional commander! ……”
The more Long Mu Han spoke, the more excited he became, and the pain in his heart wanted to be vented in one breath, and he interrupted again: "We just got down the Luowang Station, and before we could even catch our breath, I received a call from the chairman, asking us to support Lan Feng quickly. Good! I've recognized it, but what about him Gui Yongqing? With the best equipment, 3 integrated divisions, an armored battalion, as a result he ran first. And I only have a brigade with more than half of the casualties. Commander Wu, how do you tell me to resist a division of the Japanese army!? ”
In terms of momentum, Long Muhan suppressed Regiment Leader Wu, and he relied not on his level but on the resentment in his heart. In a way, this is also a psychological deterrent.
Xiao Zhan had been observing behind Commander Wu. Although Long Mu Han Zhenzhen has words, and even reached the point of impassionedness, this shows that his heart is weak and he has no self-confidence.
"Speech" is enough to show a person's attitude and emotions, and the speed, intonation, quality, and voice are enough to see the other person's heart.
Long Muhan said too much, spoke too fast, and was too emotional. Confident people often speak in a positive tone, while unconfident people or people with weak personalities have long topics and are afraid that their topics will be interrupted, and they are in a restless mood.
Long Muhan is a general, and Commander Wu is just a colonel, so there is no need for him to do this at all. The reason why he uses so many words to explain is actually to find a psychological balance. Long Muhan mentioned Gui Yongqing three or four times, in order to dilute the uneasiness in his heart, and talk about Gui Yongqing in a way that belittles him.
In addition, Long Muhan deliberately belittled his strength and exaggerated the enemy, in order to find psychological balance. Although there is only one brigade, its combat strength is still there, it has equipment that is not inferior to the Japanese army, and it has strong city fortifications, while the Japanese army has only one wing, which can be blocked. What's more, there are a large number of national army troops on the periphery, which can be reinforced at any time.
Commander Wu had no room to interject at all, and only after Long Muhan finished his words did he say: "Division Commander, this is not a reason for us to retreat. During the Battle of Songhu, we attacked the Japanese naval headquarters......"
Commander Wu had only said a word and a half, and a lieutenant colonel staff officer stepped forward and interrupted: "The division commander said that the current 88th Division is not the previous 88th Division, and retreating is also an expedient measure. Our little people can't stop the enemy's powerful offensive at all, so whether to withdraw or not to withdraw will not have a big impact on the entire battle situation, so why make fearless sacrifices? ”
In fact, Wu Tuan wanted to say that the 88th Division held Zhabei for 74 days, and the 5 replenishments were all recruits; Defending Yuhuatai for three days and four nights, most of the two brigades were recruits, and in the end they persevered. "Recruits" are not a reason to retreat. But the people around him didn't give Captain Wu a chance to speak.
At this time, another officer on the side answered: "Commander Wu, you are also a veteran of the battlefield, you should understand the truth that a tired army cannot be braved. Besides, there were only more than 1,000 people left in the 88th Division after Nanjing, and the division commander also wanted to keep the seeds for the 88th Division. ”
Xiao Zhan felt extremely aggrieved, a group of generals of the 1st Pre-Division besieged his regiment commander with their mouths, and they also said that they had escaped so high-soundingly. And his own head of the regiment is weak, and even the right to speak is deprived by the other party.
Xiao Zhan suddenly stepped forward and roared with a middle breath: "The soul is gone, what do you want to do!?" ”
Xiao Zhan's words echoed in the room like thunder, and the command headquarters was suddenly silent. Everyone's eyes converged on Xiao Zhan's body, but Regiment Leader Wu was worried in his heart, he really didn't know what crazy things Xiao Zhan would do.
However, it was because of Xiao Zhan's words that not only shocked the hearts of these people, but even the momentum of the other party was suppressed by this sentence.
"Xiao Zhan, what are you going to do? I know that you have made countless meritorious contributions and are a heroic figure of the 88th Division, but it is not your turn to judge people of your level here. ”
Long Muhan warned Xiao Zhan, he felt that this Xiao Zhan was more tricky than that Wu Commander.
Listening to rumors, Xiao Zhan speaks and acts with no brains, it is completely out of instinct, and he never cares about the consequences. In layman's terms, Xiao Zhan doesn't play cards according to routines, he is a beast that reacts instinctively.
Xiao Zhan lowered his head and gasped, feeling like a beast breathing constantly. The look in his eyes seemed to tear everything around him apart, and the momentum was like a volcano about to erupt, causing a great psychological shock to the people around him.
"Heroes? Hehe, I'm about to turn into a bear my master. ”
Xiao Zhan's tone was a little crazy, and then he walked to the middle of the crowd with a solid and powerful force. There seemed to be an invisible aura on him, and those high-ranking officers actually took a step back. They all knew in their hearts that Xiao Zhan couldn't be provoked, he had killed countless people on the battlefield, and he was still a company commander, so he had no scruples and no burden, so what crazy things he did were within the normal range.
Xiao Zhan pouted and smiled, "I'm uneducated, and I don't understand any big truths." Ever since I put on this uniform, I have learned one thing: a soldier's chest must always be directed against the enemy! ”
Xiao Zhan's tone was heroic, but there was no lack of vulgarity in his words.
The lieutenant colonel staff officer boldly said to Xiao Zhan: "Captain Xiao, don't come nonsense, now is not the time for you to be a hero." This is a strategic shift, to keep the viable, you know? ”
Another officer continued: "Yes, you have to look at the whole situation in battle, and you can't be brave. Everyone is dead, what war are we fighting? ”
"Hah! Ha ha! Haha......"
Xiao Zhan suddenly laughed out loud after hearing this, he laughed very unnaturally, very rhythmlessly, and had a feeling of letting go. Barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes, who is afraid of whom?
The laughter seemed to swallow up all the words just now and the previous words, and everyone was stunned, unable to find their own rhythm.
Xiao Zhan stopped laughing, sneered again, and said, "Hehe, say that I am uneducated, and say that I am a puppet." Damn, Lao Tzu has been fighting for 6 years, and he hasn't eaten pork, haven't you seen a pig run!? ”
The two officers shook their heads, only feeling that Xiao Zhan was vulgar, and even had a sense of being unreasonable when he met a soldier. I am a cultural person, and I can't lower my status with this kind of ** general knowledge. The two of them retreated one after another, not bothering about it.
Long Muhan didn't speak again, and he was also lost his rhythm by Xiao Zhan's "nonsense". If you boldly step forward, you will be bitten by this "beast", or wait and see.
Suddenly, with a "bang~", Xiao Zhan pointed his fingertips at the map on the command table and said, "This is Lan Feng!" If we give Lan Feng to the little devil in vain, the devil will definitely stay here and wait for help. At that time, the devils north of the Yellow River will go south, and the devils in Xuzhou will advance westward, and the 19th Army will have to withdraw from the enemy. Result: Henan fell. ”
The room was silent. First, I was overwhelmed by Xiao Zhan's emotions; The second is that a brainless person actually said the key point. What Xiao Zhan said later was not alarmist, it was something that was very likely to happen. As soon as the main force withdrew, Henan was in danger.
Xiao Zhan collected his emotions and looked at those officers and said in a very calm tone: "If you withdraw, you will be safe for a while, but you will become a sinner for the ages." The main force of the 14th Division of the Japanese Army is in Sanyi Village, and the 27th Brigade is in Luowangji, their main force is pinned down by our army, and there is only one wing that can come over, can we really not hold it? You're all smart people, so do what you want. ”
Xiao Zhan's tone was not heavy, but it was heavier than any sentence. In fact, everyone understands such a simple truth, and just said so many high-sounding words just to cover up their timid hearts.
After Xiao Zhan's words were finished, he turned around and walked to Long Muhan's side, and whispered in his ear: "My subordinates don't read many books, and my favorite is "Journey to the West". I don't have the culture to understand, the teacher, you have the culture, tell me, why are some monsters killed by Sun Wukong, but some monsters are fine? ”
After finishing speaking, Xiao Zhan left the command headquarters, leaving Commander Wu there alone.
The goal Xiao Zhan has been achieved. First, explain the importance of the Lanfeng, if anyone dares to evacuate without authorization, Shangfeng will definitely blame it; Second, give Long Muhan psychological hints, don't be a monster killed by Sun Wukong, and don't be someone's scapegoat.
