Chapter 165: Why Me
"Why me?" Hearing this, Su Jin couldn't help but be a little unhappy, and looked at Luo Zhuoying and asked very dissatisfied.
Looking at Su Jin, who was full of reluctance, Luo Zhuoying explained very sincerely: "Because I can no longer find a unit with more defensive experience than your brigade." ”
"Ah...... Is that also the reason? Su Jin was dumbfounded.
"Of course!" Luo Zhuoying also knew that his request was a bit abrupt to Su Jin, so he explained: "Brigade Commander Su, I'm afraid you don't know yet, now your brigade is famous." Let's take the battle of Xiaojinshan as an example. After you took up the defense mission of Xiaojinshan, you first killed the Japanese Fifth Tank Brigade, and then even the Suzuki Brigade was completely annihilated by you, and the Japanese newspapers even gave you the nickname "Jingguan Force", and having you and us on a covering mission can not only improve the morale of the guarding troops, but also effectively deter the Japanese army, which is also the purpose of my invitation to you. ”
"I'm afraid there's more to it than that." At this time, Zhou Yusheng's cold voice sounded on the side.
Luo Zhuoying frowned, this voice was yin and yang, how could it make people listen so uncomfortable. He was just about to say something, but Zhou Yusheng continued: "Chief Luo, you don't know how much the Japanese hate our independent brigade now, if the Japanese army knows that our independent brigade is here on the way to retreat, they will inevitably pounce like hungry wolves that smell blood, and then even if we have three heads and six arms, we will not be able to stop the onslaught of hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops, don't you want to put our independent brigade to death?" ”
Hearing this, Su Jin also came back to his senses. Zhou Yusheng was right, if Wuhan was abandoned, millions of national troops would retreat, leaving only the 19th Group Army and its own independent brigade to take up the defensive task. With the hatred of the Japanese for themselves, once they found that their troops were in front of them, they would not have to rush over with their lives, and then they would not be able to stop them even if they had three heads and six arms. If the heart of this Chief Luo in front of him was a little darker, he could let himself block in front to attract firepower. He can lead his 19th Army to calmly act as a blocker, doesn't that mean that he has to bear most of the pressure, fortunately he still has a shrewd chief of staff by his side, otherwise he will really be calculated by this old guy.
Thinking of this, Su Jin's face couldn't help but look a little difficult.
Seeing Su Jin's unkind gaze, Luo Zhuoying also knew that he couldn't hide his little abacus from the other party, and said calmly: "Chief of Staff Zhou is right, the reason why I asked your independent brigade to serve as a cover mission with us is also for this reason. But you also underestimate me Luo Zhuoying, do you think I want your Independent Brigade to be a target to attract Japanese firepower to our 19th Army? ”
Speaking of this, Luo Zhuoying looked at Su Jin with a solemn expression and said word by word: "I can assure you here that this time I will serve as a cover for the retreat of the large army." If your independent brigade does not retreat for a day, I will accompany you Luo Zhuoying for a day, even if our 19th Army is exhausted, I will not hesitate! ”
…………
The atmosphere in the tent became serious, and the six eyes looked at each other in mid-air, and Su Jin took the lead in nodding: "Okay, I believe you once, this time our independent brigade will accompany you crazy." ”
"Traveler!" Zhou Yusheng couldn't help but be anxious when he saw it, the current independent brigade had just been expanded for less than half a month, and five or six thousand new recruits had been added at once, and some soldiers had not even completed the most basic training. Su Jin took on this kind of high-risk task, which was too risky.
"Chi Yu, don't say it." Su Jin waved his hand and stopped Zhou Yusheng's words. Only then did he say to Luo Zhuoying with a solemn expression: "Chief Luo, let me be honest with you, our independent brigade has just been expanded, and some recruits have not even practiced the most basic tactical moves. We thought we could find a place to rest for a few months and train our troops well, but you gave us such a show at once, which made us feel very embarrassed. ”
"This ......" Luo Zhuoying also knew that Su Jin was talking about things. Logically speaking, the reorganization of the troops will not be completed at all in three to five months, and now that they have only received the order to expand their organization for less than half a month, they have insisted on pulling others to accompany them to complete the arduous cover task.
Dumb and gritting his teeth, Luo Zhuoying said: "Brigade Commander Su, I know that it is really difficult for you to know this." In this case, if you have any requirements, I will satisfy you as long as I can do it. ”
Su Jin nodded, since Luo Zhuoying said so, he would not be polite: "Okay, this is what you said." Chi Yu, then it's up to you to make a request to Chief Luo. In the blink of an eye, Su Jin lifted the ball to Zhou Yusheng.
At this time, what else could Zhou Yusheng say, his own boss agreed, and he could only obey as the chief of staff, but let him make a request, he would not be polite, and cleared his voice Zhou Yusheng looked at Luo Zhuoying with bright eyes: "Chief Luo, since this is the case, the department is not welcome." ”
Looking at Zhou Yusheng's unceremonious eyes, Luo Zhuoying smiled bitterly: "Say it, now I am still serving as the commander-in-chief of the Wuhan garrison, and I still have some power in my hands." ”
"We need bullets, a lot of 7.92 caliber bullets, at least three million rounds."
"Three million rounds?" Rao is Luo Zhuoying was ready for heavy bleeding, and was also startled by Zhou Yusheng's lion mouth, what does three million bullets mean? Today's soldiers in the national army generally carry only about twenty or thirty rounds of ammunition, and three million rounds of ammunition is enough for a group army to fight a fierce battle.
Seeing Luo Zhuoying's stunned look, Su Jin on the side spoke: "Commander Luo, don't think that we are opening our mouth in the lion, you have seen the training of our troops, and three million rounds of ammunition is enough for our brigade to maintain a week of fierce fighting, you must know that the rate of fire of the machine guns we are equipped with is 1,200 rounds per minute." ”
"I ......" Hearing this, Luo Zhuoying couldn't help but think of the machine gun equipped by the Independent Brigade that made a sound like a chainsaw, and the words he wanted to say could only be swallowed back, Okay, where are these guys in the Independent Brigade fighting, they are simply throwing money. Although he was distressed, he couldn't refuse, who let him just say all the words.
"Okay, three million rounds of ammunition, I'll transfer it to you when I get back." Luo Zhuoying said painfully.
Su Jin said again: "There is one more thing, Chief Luo, I hope that the defense area you assigned to us should not be too large, you also know that our brigade has too many recruits now, and if the defense area is too big, I am worried that I will not be able to defend it." ”
"Cheng ...... I can promise you this, is there anything else I would ask for? (To be continued.) )
