Chapter 32 The Devil Lieutenant General Who Survived
"The regiment commander, the comrades of the mortar squad succeeded." , The cheers made Li Ping very nervous, and he immediately prepared to give the order to attack and step forward.
"Dada"
Before Li Ping could say anything, a lot of people suddenly killed behind the devil, and Li Ping almost burst his fist.
"Commander, it's the devil's reinforcements coming." , The anxious and regretful voice made Li Ping's heart twitch, and at a glance, he knew that it was the two brigades that had been reinforced by the county seat.
"There's no chance, let's withdraw."
Li Ping disappeared into the darkness with his troops, and the devil was still waiting to be pursued, but was intercepted by the captain of the devil brigade.
Several people came to the place where the devil lieutenant general fell, turned over the guards stacked around him, and exposed the devil lieutenant general.
"Captain, the lieutenant general is still alive, it's just ......", the medic didn't finish speaking, and the frightened expression on his face made the two captains look ugly.
"Bring the lieutenant general back to the county seat, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time."
"Hi"
Looking at the dark world in the distance, a devil captain asked, "Do we still want to continue the pursuit?" They are lieutenant generals......"
"Baga, what are you chasing, it's so dark, they've long since disappeared without a trace."
The devil was about to return to the county seat, and Li Ping, who was on the way to retreat, looked pity, and he was just five minutes away from being able to unexpectedly succeed.
"Commander, did you say that the devil lieutenant general is dead?" , The tone was full of inquiry and expectation, and Li Ping shook his head to indicate that he was not sure.
After returning to the regiment headquarters, Li Ping asked the political commissar and the chief of staff to come over, and after the two arrived, Li Ping opened his mouth and said: "Political commissar, we unexpectedly succeeded, but we don't know if the devil lieutenant general is dead or not, you ask the comrades of the underground party to inquire." ”
After Li Ping finished speaking, the two political commissars immediately stood up and stared at Li Ping, and Li Ping had no choice but to explain the battle process in detail.
"Commander, I'll do it right away." , the political commissar immediately walked out after hearing this, this is a big thing, and there is no room for sloppiness.
After the political commissar went out, the chief of staff looked at Li Ping from surprise to expectation, and said: "Regiment commander, whether the devil lieutenant general dies or not, our goal has been achieved." ”
"The political commissar and I have counted the list of prisoners, a total of 31,860 people, all of whom were captured by devils on the front line, and the ingredients are mixed, and there are all kinds of troops."
"There are a total of six people at the regiment commander level, and more than 100 people above the battalion commander. The rest are veterans. ”
Li Ping's eyes lit up, what he needs now, is that he needs veterans, as long as there are troops, Pingxian is the fat in his mouth, and he can eat it if he wants.
As soon as Li Ping wanted to speak, the political commissar had already returned, Li Ping pulled the political commissar and said: "Political commissar, the chief of staff just told me about the prisoners we brought back, and now is the time for you to show off your skills, Lao Tzu wants to leave them all, and it will be our Eighth Route Army in the future." ”
After Li Ping finished speaking, the political commissar laughed and said: "I knew that you would not let them go, I have already carried out my work, but I have a suggestion, we don't want people at the deputy regiment level, send them back to the brigade headquarters, and let them go back." ”
When Li Ping heard this, he began to think about it, the political commissar's idea was right, these people were not low in rank, and they were not easy to transform, so it was better to send them away than to stay here half-heartedly.
Thinking of this, Li Ping smiled at the corner of his mouth and said: "Political commissar, I agree with your contact, but we can only send them away, don't let them pull the soldiers, there must be many of their original subordinates among these prisoners." ”
Li Ping's meaning is very clear, it's okay to send people away, but don't give them a chance to pull people, the political commissar and the chief of staff nodded immediately, and they can send you away as soon as you come out.
The chief of staff immediately went down to make arrangements, and a platoon of fighters with a team of thirty-one people set off for the brigade headquarters and sent a telegram to the brigade commander.
The brigade commander who received the telegram is about to lose his hair, and you Li Ping ate meat and threw the trouble to Lao Tzu.
The chief of staff looked at the brigade commander's sad face, and said with a smile: "Brigade commander, didn't you send some people?" Let's just send it to Commander Yan in the Second World War Zone, it's easy to deal with. ”
The brigade commander looked at the chief of staff and smiled bitterly, the political commissar frowned, glanced at the chief of staff, and said: "This matter is not so simple, everything depends on the ideas of Chongqing, it is okay to say that it is small, but if they hold on and say that we have embezzled their troops, what do you say?" ”
After the political commissar finished speaking, the chief of staff reacted that the people in Chongqing had always looked at them unpleasantly, and if they seized this opportunity to target them, everyone would have no good fruit to eat after the matter became bigger, and this was called sabotaging the anti-Japanese united front.
"I think it's better to send a telegram to the headquarters and let them decide."
When the headquarters received a telegram from Brigade Commander Chen, the deputy commander-in-chief looked at it, threw it away, and said: "Let them send people to Commander Yan in the Second World War Zone, and tell Brigade Commander Chen that if the people from Chongqing ask, as soon as we arrived, we said that we had only saved two or three thousand people, and they could not do anything." ”
After the deputy commander-in-chief finished speaking, the political commissar laughed and said, "Boss, you are not afraid of friction between us and Chongqing." ”
The boss smiled and said loudly: "It's good that Lao Tzu can save them, Chongqing not only can't blame us, but also has to reward us, otherwise who will be convinced." ”
After the boss finished speaking, the political commissar nodded and smiled, you people in Chongqing can't blame us for saving people by mistake! As long as they dare to say this, without the Eighth Route Army's action, the troops under Chongqing will have to turn the sky upside down.
The brigade commander who received the telegram immediately asked people to prepare to take over the people sent by the new regiment and send them directly to Commander Yan in the Second War Zone.
"Brigade commander, Li Ping is now pulling tens of thousands of people, can he afford it? It's better for us to ......", the chief of staff meant very clearly, tens of thousands of prisoners could not swallow a new regiment, so let several regiments deal with it together.
The brigade commander stared at the chief of staff, sighed deeply, and said: "I don't know if the new regiment can swallow it or not, do you think we can ask people over?" We can't afford it. ”
After the brigade commander finished speaking, the political commissar nodded, now that they are short of food and clothing, it is already the limit to be able to feed the current troops, and besides, with the new regiment of dignitaries, where can they be sent?
The other three regiments were too far away from the new regiment, and they were surrounded by the devil's defense line, and they died directly on the road before others arrived.
The brigade commander has no choice, Li Ping is also sparing his head now, and the logistics director is now complaining.
"Commander, my old Zhou can't help it, tens of thousands of mouths, we can't last long." , logistics director Zhou Daoyi sat down and sighed, worried.
The chief of staff smiled bitterly and said: "Regiment commander, not only is there not enough food, but our equipment is also much worse, what use do you say we swallow them." ”
The meaning of the chief of staff is very clear, although these people are veterans, they do not have guns in their hands, and what is the difference between them and the common people.
