Chapter 22 The soldiers are divided into two ways

After searching for nearly two hours, Roy, who had no gains, took the lead in going offline, after all, it was a test of luck to find the enemy in this way of luck.

In the past three days, except for Chen Ming who killed a Shaozuo, the two of them have not seen other big fish with the rank of Shaozuo or above.

Seeing Roy slowly disappearing in front of him, Chen Ming, who was lying on the roof, was also ready to go offline to rest.

In the past few days, in order to match Roy's schedule, the two of them have found a safe point and agreed to go offline and go online together. At this time, although it was still noon in the South American jungle where Chen Ming was located, it was better not to stay any longer for the sake of safety.

After another glance at the night town where bursts of gunfire erupted from time to time, Chen Ming decided to go on a safari for another day, and if there was no harvest yet, he would go back to Luodian.

Disconnected, Chen Ming checked the monitoring, and there was nothing abnormal. It seems that the ones killed a few days ago are indeed the last of the cowboys, and this news made Chen Ming's mood relax a lot.

After turning around, the body is recovering very well, if you don't put a lot of pressure on your left arm and left leg, you can already move normally, and now Chen Ming can already do some basic recovery training.

After eating something and looking at the time, Chen Ming fell asleep.

Chen Ming didn't sleep too peacefully, maybe the gradual recovery of his body made Chen Ming feel revenge, Chen Ming was always dreaming in the past two days.

The dream was very simple, only Li Si and a few other comrades-in-arms were asking again and again why they didn't take revenge, and every time at this time, Chen Ming would wake up from the dream.

This time, it was no exception.

Looking at the dark sky outside the window, Chen Ming looked at the time, 5 hours, Chen Ming's standard sleep time these days.

Shaking his head, Chen Ming said silently in his heart: "Don't worry, brothers!" It's almost there! ”

Slapping his cheek with cold water, forcing himself to give up some very tempting but very untimely ideas, Chen Ming entered the war again.

Reappeared on the roof, looked around, the early morning in the game was still dark, but Chen Ming knew that this darkness would soon reced, and the arrival of dawn meant the beginning of a new day of fighting.

Chen Ming, who was looking around on the rooftop, suddenly saw a brightly lit open space not far away.

There was a curfew at night during the war, and although it was almost dawn at this time, this piece of light still aroused Chen Ming's great interest.

After looking at the time, it was still early before the agreed time with Roy, and Chen Ming decided to go over and take a look.

"If there is a Japanese army gathered, it can still catch a big one." Chen Ming, who jumped over the wall, thought secretly in his heart.

The place where Chen Ming went offline was not far from the open space, but within a few minutes, Chen Ming was already lying on the top of a house on the edge of the open space, carefully peeking his head.

It was not the Japanese troops gathered in the open space, which made Chen Ming a little disappointed and at the same time happy with three points.

The open space was large, densely packed with Chinese soldiers, and in front of the crowd, an officer was shouting loudly.

Chen Ming took a closer look and recognized that it was Major General Cai Bingyan, whom he had met before.

Looking from Chen Ming's direction, I happened to see the major general standing on the stage, facing his direction, pacing left and right for a few steps, and the major general's slightly hoarse voice spread throughout the open space.

"I, Cai Bingyan, you must know each other." The major general looked at the assembled troops below with blazing eyes: "Cai was admitted to Huangpu at the age of 22, and then transferred to the Quartet, and this year is already the 13th year. As a soldier, it is a blessing and a misfortune at this time of national disaster. ”

"Soldiers, open up the territory and expand the territory! Defend against foreign enemies, but also for the merit! However, we did not have the opportunity to expand our territory, but we are defending against foreign enemies here and now, and I am very relieved. Since Cai joined the army, it is his duty to die on the battlefield in battle, but if he can die here and now, it is a great luck! ”

"Seeing that the mountains and rivers are broken, and that I have been insulted by the Japanese barbarians, causing my people to suffer, be displaced, and die in a foreign land, it is a great misfortune that I cannot kill the enemy chieftain!"

Looking at the silent soldiers below, looking at the perseverance on the young faces, the major general waved his hand at the soldiers behind him and shouted: "Take the wine!" ”

A jar of wine was moved to the field, and one by one the clay bowls were sent down, and the major general poured a bowl of wine and shouted: "I, Cai, have made a military order here!" The officers and men of this brigade swear to live and die with the position, those who advance live, those who retreat die, and they all obey! ”

After speaking, he raised his head and drank the liquor in the bowl, casually smashed the pottery bowl on the ground, and drank: "Die with the enemy!" ”

The shouts of the soldiers below shook the clouds in the sky, and the sun jumped out at this moment.

All the soldiers shouted in unison: "Die with the enemy!" ”

After speaking, he killed the liquor in the bowl at the same time, slammed the bowl on the ground in unison, and shouted: "Kill! ”

----------------------------------

In the early hours of August 25, 1937

The 201st Brigade of the 67th Division, under the leadership of the brigade commander Major General Cai Bingyan, was ordered to launch an attack on more than 3,000 people of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army in Lujiazhai.

Before long, the enemy brigade galloped to help, the Japanese army relied on heavy artillery and aircraft to suppress, and the infantry followed closely behind to launch a charge.

By the end of the afternoon, the whole brigade had suffered all casualties, the commander of the 402nd Regiment, Li Weifan, and most of the battalion, company, and platoon commanders were killed.

In the fierce battle, Major General Cai Bingyan was shot several times and died a heroic martyr at the age of Chinese New Year's Eve.

----------------------------------

Chen Ming lay on the roof, listening to the major general's impassioned speech, speechless for a while.

He knows the later stories of Major General Cai, including the two family letters, and in Chen Ming's view, this kind of behavior is incomprehensible.

To put it mildly, as a brigade commander and a major general of the country, you don't have to take the lead in the charge, and the dispatch in the command is the primary task.

To put it mildly, as a high-ranking officer, he has the right to retreat first when the war is unfavorable, not to mention his personal life, and his wife and wife are young.

But Chen Ming has some understanding, thinking about when he first became a soldier...

"The Lone Wanderer, are you there? Back. Roy's voice in the communicator interrupted Chen Ming's musings.

"Yes, coordinates XXX.XXX, on the roof, slow down." Chen Ming whispered to the communicator to report the coordinates of the past.

By the time Luo Yishen rushed to Chen Ming's side, Major General Cai Bingyan had already entered the position with his troops, leaving only pieces of broken bowls and the intoxicating smell of wine on the entire school field.

"What's going on here?" Roy didn't quite understand the feelings of Zhuangxing wine, and asked curiously when he saw the broken pottery tiles on the ground.

"Remember the major general from before?"

"The major general who delivered something? Let me think about it, it's called Cai Bingyan, right? Roy thought seriously for a moment and asked Chen Ming rhetorically.

"Yes, that's right, Major General Cai! He had just led his troops into defensive positions. Chen Ming said calmly: "And he will die on his position!" He is a hero! ”

The last sentence was not translated by Chen Ming, but directly said it in English.

The look of surprise on Roy's face was about to stand out, and he said in a lost voice: "Major General? Bring troops into position? Dead on the ground? ”

Roy's face was full of disbelief, stared at Chen Ming and added: "In the entire World War II of the United States, there were only 11 senior officers above the major general level, do you understand?" ”

"Yes, Roy, I see what you mean. Look here..."Chen Ming swept his finger into the distance: "In the Battle of Songhu alone, China killed 14 high-ranking generals, and most of them fought until their soldiers died and died on the battlefield. ”

Roy was silent for a long time before he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Magical East, I can't understand the thinking of you Chinese, but they are indeed heroes." ”

Chen Ming glanced at Roy with a slight surprise and said: "There is a saying in China, it is called an inch of mountains and rivers and an inch of blood!" There is also a saying that only flesh and blood are used to build a causeway (this sentence is in "The Descendants of Maoshan", I like it very much, borrow it). Chen Ming didn't know how the latter poem system was translated, but he continued: "The Chinese never lack heroes!" ”

Shaking his head, Chen Ming calmed himself down. After a while, he continued: "You can choose to stay and protect Major General Cai, if you succeed, the evaluation value will not be less." ”

Roy lowered his head and thought about it, and asked Chen Ming: "I think it's my honor to protect a hero!" Lone Wanderer, what about you? ”

Chen Ming raised his eyebrows, narrowed his eyes, and said, "I'll go to the other side to have a look, if I'm not mistaken, the opposite side should be the Japanese 11th Division!" I'm going to catch a big fish! ”

Roy weighed it in his mind and said, "Okay then, Lone Wanderer!" I decided to stay, good luck! ”

Chen Ming turned his head and smiled, pointed in a direction, and said to Roy: "They are over there, the task is to capture the Lu family house, and there will be no danger until the Japanese reinforcements arrive, you have plenty of time!" ”

Chen Ming sorted out his equipment and handed over three more hands. The grenade went over and said, "These three are for you, maybe you can use them, good luck." ”

With that, he jumped off the roof and disappeared into the alley in a few steps.

Roy looked at the back of Chen Ming leaving, and muttered in his mouth: "Chinese, they are all incomprehensible!" Magical Oriental! After muttering, he also lurked in the direction pointed out by Chen Ming.

Chen Ming left the roof, slightly discerned the direction, and then ran wildly.

While running, he went through the plan that had just popped up in his mind: "According to the information in my memory, Major General Cai Bingyan attacked the 3,000 Japanese garrisons located in Lujiazhai. These men belonged to the Japanese 11th Division, and when the battle was in a scorching state, a large Japanese reinforcement arrived, but instead of defeating the 201st Brigade, it remained in a state of engagement, which lasted until the afternoon, that is, 12 hours. ”

Chen Ming looked up in the direction and found a hidden dark corner to lurk temporarily.

Taking out a pen and paper, Chen Ming began to compare: "The 201st Brigade is an integrated brigade, and according to the establishment, it should be 5,000 people, excluding those who cannot participate in the battle, 4,500 people should be there." ”

Chen Ming wrote down the number 4500 on a piece of paper.

"The Japanese troops were 3,000 at the beginning, and a large number of reinforcements came, considering the combat effectiveness of the 201 Brigade, these reinforcements were at least more than 3,000 people before it was possible to drag down the 201 Brigade little by little in the fierce battle."

Chen Ming wrote the number 3000+3000 on the paper again.

"The 11th Division is a first-class division of Japan, Kanto. One of the permanent divisions of the army, according to the establishment, there are about 28,000 people. Excluding the necessary logistical staff officers and personnel who cannot fight on the front line, there are about 19,000 people who can be stationed on the position. ”

Chen Ming continued to write on the paper.

"The 11th Division is one of the main divisions attacking Luodian, and it has been fighting for so long and the battle line is so long, then, this means that the defense is empty!"

Chen Ming put down the pen and paper in his hand and glanced at the direction of the Yangtze River in the east.

"Such a fierce battle, Lian Song. Jing Shigen has been stationed in Shanghai, and it is impossible for you to stay in the rear and command remotely..."Chen Ming raised his eyebrows, and his narrowed eyes were full of essence.

"The 11th Division, Your Excellency Lieutenant General Yamamuro Sotake, the commander of the division, I will take your head!"
