Chapter 554: Wing Flag
The wild dog didn't know what this flag meant, but he thought that such a piece of cloth seemed to be useless, so he casually discarded it on the ground, and then searched around the tent, and found a telephone, this thing wild dog had seen in the regimental headquarters, and knew that this thing was very rare, and if he took it back, he would definitely be able to remember it.
At that moment, the wild dog took off the telephone, and also picked up the spare telephone line that the devil had thrown in the corner of the tent, and only took two steps, and felt that it was very inconvenient to hold the telephone in one hand and the wire in his arms in the other, so he turned back and picked up the military flag that he had just thrown on the ground.
The wild dog rolled up a bag with the military flag, loaded the telephone and wires, carried them on his shoulder, and then rushed out of the tent, only to meet the ten thousand mountains head-on.
"You went up?" Wan Chongshan scolded, "Go, hurry up." ”
The wild dog was also scolded, and said, "Battalion commander, I have seized a telephone. ”
"Really? It's enough to record a third-class merit. After Wan Chongshan finished speaking, he scolded again, "Hurry up, hurry up." ”
After finishing speaking, Wan Chongshan looked around and scolded: "And you, don't clean up the battlefield, the little devil's artillery is about to shell when he speaks, if you don't want to die, hurry up and withdraw for me, withdraw quickly!" ”
The officers and men of the Independent Regiment, who were collecting guns and ammunition on the battlefield, got up and retreated one after another.
Looking at the guns and ammunition scattered everywhere on the battlefield, Wan Chongshan was also red-eyed, but there was no way, before the attack, the regiment commander had a strict order, once the devils were completely annihilated, they would immediately retreat, and they were not allowed to stay on the devil's position for even a second, Wan Chongshan faithfully carried out Xu Rui's order, and decisively led the troops to retreat, and as a result, he escaped the shelling.
Xu Dekun discounted when carrying out the order, leaving a company to clean up the battlefield, but the company that was left behind was subjected to the retaliatory artillery bombardment of the 10th Wing of the Devil's Field Artillery, and the whole company was less than 200 officers and soldiers, and in the previous attack, only less than 20 people were killed, but in the retaliatory shelling of the devil, more than 50 people died.
As a result, as soon as he returned to the fortress position, Xu Dekun was scolded by Xu Rui.
"You didn't hear my orders because you stuffed your ears with donkey hair, or did you not take my orders seriously at all?" Xu Rui rarely loses his temper, but this time he is furious, Xu Rui is really angry, Xu Dekun's behavior does not seem to be serious, but it is actually very bad, because this is battlefield disobedience.
To borrow a line from Liangjian, the problem of battlefield disobedience is unacceptable.
Therefore, even if it is just a small sprout, it must be suppressed immediately and decisively!
Xu Dekun was trained by Xu Rui like a gray grandson, and he hung his head to defend and said: "Regiment commander, I just saw so many guns and ammunition scattered on the battlefield, and I felt that it was a pity, so I let the 7th Company stay to clean up the battlefield." ”
"Guns and ammunition, guns and ammunition, do you only have guns and ammunition in your eyes?" Xu Rui said coldly, "Am I short of your 3 battalion of guns, or am I missing your 3 battalion of ammunition?" ”
Although the arsenal in the Dameishan base area has not yet produced a single bullet, because the stock is sufficient, Xu Rui has never been short of guns and ammunition for the troops, especially the three main battalions of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.
Xu Dekun whispered: "Our independent regiment is not short of guns and ammunition, but isn't the militia quite short?" I'm thinking about getting these guns and ammunition back, although we can't use them ourselves, but it's good to use them for the county brigade and the district squad militia, otherwise it would be a pity. ”
"Is it the guns and ammunition that matter, or the lives of the brethren?" Xu Rui said coldly, "Before the attack, I repeatedly told the two of you that once the little devil suffers a big loss, he will definitely carry out a retaliatory shelling, if you just don't listen, why don't you listen to what the dog says?" These more than 50 brothers are all because of your life! ”
Xu Dekun was dragged by Xu Rui's words, and he didn't dare to say a word again.
Xu Rui snorted again, turned his head and shouted: "Leizi, pull Xu Dekun out and kill him!" ”
Lei Xiang has always only listened to Xu Rui, so he agreed immediately, stepped forward and pushed Xu Dekun out.
Seeing that Xu Rui was going to shoot himself, Xu Dekun was stunned all of a sudden, and everyone present was also stunned, He Guangming, Wan Chongshan and other battalion commanders actually forgot to plead.
Fortunately, he met Wang Husheng halfway through the road and let him stop him.
"Lao Xu, what are you doing here?" Wang Husheng came in and persuaded, "Even if Battalion Commander Xu makes a mistake, he will not be shot, this is not treason to the enemy or anything, no, it will definitely not be shot." ”
Xu Rui actually just wanted to scare Xu Dekun, and at the same time to deter the rest of the battalion commanders, he immediately got off the donkey down the slope, pulled his face and said: "You are the political commissar, then you should tell me, how to deal with it?" ”
Wang Husheng scratched his head and said, "Otherwise, he will be demoted to deputy battalion commander, acting battalion commander, and make meritorious contributions?" ”
"Deputy battalion commander, cheap him." Xu Rui said angrily, "Let's go to the cooking class and be a guy." ”
"Okay, okay, then guy, then guy." After Wang Husheng finished speaking, he waved his hand, and Xu Dekun reported to the cooking class of the regiment headquarters in disgrace, but he didn't have much opinion on this punishment Xu Dekun, no matter what, more than 50 veterans of the Seventh Company died because of his mistakes, and he really should be punished.
What's more, the position of the head of the cooking squad at the regiment headquarters is not so unbearable.
Don't talk about it far away, let's just say that recently, Gao Chu was masturbated because he made a mistake, and he also went to the cooking class of the regiment headquarters for more than half a month? But in the end, this kid was not only reinstated, but also promoted to battalion commander, Xu Dekun has reason to believe that this is just a test for him by the regiment commander, as long as he performs well, there is still a chance to be reinstated.
After dealing with Xu Dekun, when Xu Rui turned to He Guangming and Wan Chongshan again, he finally had a smile on his face.
"In this counterattack, although the 3rd Battalion made a small mistake, the overall performance was still very good, and it was able to completely annihilate the 10th Infantry Wing of the 10th Division under the nose of the main force of the 10th Division, which is not simple!" Wang Husheng said with a smile, "For this reason, the military leaders have sent a special congratulatory telegram. ”
He Guangming was surprised: "The head of the military department knows the result so quickly? ”
"What do you say?" Xu Rui snorted and said, "In this counterattack battle, Dameishan Radio Station carried out a full follow-up live broadcast through the special program 'Battlefield Focus', and at the first moment of the 10th Wing of the Devil Infantry Annihilation, this news has been spread throughout Central China and even all of China through the radio waves. ”
Wang Husheng also said: "This is also a special request of the Party Central Committee and the head of the military department, because the current situation in the various anti-Japanese battlefields across the country is a little bad, especially the situation of the National Army in the Wuhan battlefield is very tight, and it is the time when it is urgent to boost morale, so we specially arranged this live broadcast of the battlefield." ”
Xu Rui continued: "It's a pity that this time I still failed to capture the wing flag of the 10th Infantry Wing, otherwise, it will be a great blow to the morale of the little devils, and in turn, it will be a great encouragement to the main force of the National Army on the Wuhan battlefield, which is a pity." ”
Japan's modern army, since the formation of the 1st and 2nd Guards Infantry Wings in accordance with German standards, has continued a tradition, that is, every time a formally formed infantry or cavalry wing is formed, the contemporary emperor will personally give the wing flag, and the official title of this wing flag is the army flag.
According to the regulations of the Japanese Army, if the military flag is present, it will be established, and if the military flag is lost, it will be sanctioned.
Of course, the loss here does not mean what is lost, but specifically what is seized.
Once the flag is captured by the enemy, it means that the glory of the wing is lost, and the establishment will be officially abolished.
However, if it is burned by itself, then even if the wing is completely destroyed, it can still retain its establishment, and there is still a chance to make a comeback, for example, the Kagoshima Wing, which was completely annihilated by the independent regiment in Feicheng, burned the wing flag by itself before the whole army was destroyed, and finally avoided the fate of being revoked.
There was also the 106th Division, which was completely annihilated in Wanjialing, and the flags of the four wings of the four wings were all burned by themselves, so these four wings were rebuilt, and the 106th Division was quickly restored on the basis of the rebuilt four infantry wings, and participated in the Second Battle of De'an.
Hearing Xu Rui talk about the military flag, the wild dog who followed behind Wanzhong Mountain suddenly said: "Regiment leader, I seem to have picked up a military flag, which is quite special, and I don't know if it is the wing flag you said." ”
Xu Rui asked, "You picked up a military flag?" What kind of military flag is it? ”
The wild dog said: "This military flag is different from the usual plaster flag, in addition to the plaster pattern, there are red patterns around it, just like it, like the sun in the sky. ”
"The Rising Sun Flag, this is the Wing Flag!" Xu Rui was overjoyed when he heard this, "Where's the flag?" Where is the flag? ”
"Where's the flag?" The wild dog scratched his head and said blankly, "yes, where did I throw the flag?" ”
"Holy." Xu Rui was so anxious that he couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, and said, "Wild dog, think about it, where did you throw it?" ”
The wild dog recalled carefully for a moment, and suddenly shouted: "I remember, that flag was used as a baggage skin by me, wrapped in the seized telephone and wires and handed over to the logistics department." ”
"Let's go!" Xu Rui turned around and left.
Xu Rui took Wang Husheng and his entourage to the logistics department in a hurry, rummaged for a long time, and finally found the sunburst flag in the corner of the warehouse where the sundries were placed.
It was confirmed that he was the wing commander of the 10th Infantry Wing, and Wang Husheng was also excited.
"Who's that." Wang Husheng immediately turned back to greet his guards, "Go and notify the Propaganda Department, let them send reporters immediately, let them bring their cameras, and go quickly!" ”
