After Zhang Wei and Xu Yi finished cleaning the battlefield, they went to the shade under Longshan to rest, and after a while, they had to return to the forward position of the 23rd Regiment, where the dead officers and soldiers had been buried, and the wounded soldiers were properly treated by the medical staff of the 23rd Regiment.

Zhang Wei sat in the shade, watching the stretcher team carry people from the mountain, the corpses of the national army could still be carried down one by one, and the Japanese soldiers were directly piled up and pushed down the mountain.

A large pit had been dug in the distance, ready to bury the dead officers and soldiers, and all the steel helmets, bayonets, and other weapons on the corpses had been removed and piled aside, and the personnel of the logistics department would come to receive and clean up the weapons of these fallen officers and soldiers in a few moments.

The battlefield conditions were poor, and they could only be buried en masse, when they were buried. Several staff officers recorded names by the pit and removed them from the roster, which was better than nothing, and as a result, some of the corpses were blurred and unrecognizable, and even his comrades-in-arms died. Second, many of them are caught by strong men, impostors, people who don't know the details, and people who don't know their origins abound, and many of them can't be given pensions, not to mention those who eat pensions.

Zhang Wei looked at those corpses, and he didn't feel good in his heart, maybe he would have been like that that day, but if he was really killed, could he return to modern society?

"Drive, hurry up." In the distance, the dust was flying, the sound of the horse whip came, a group of horse teams ran over from a distance, Zhang Wei took a look, the leader was Shi Jue, followed by the staff officers and guards, the group rode to the front of the position, dismounted and asked, the commander of the 23rd Battalion of the 23rd Regiment and the deputy commander of the 24th Regiment who led the attack were all called over, and several people were discussing something.

Zhang Wei watched them talk for a while, Shi Jue actually looked over to him, which startled Zhang Wei, and hurriedly got up.

"Hello Brigade Commander Shi."

"Company Commander Zhang, I heard that you were the first to break through the position just now, and you also used a grenadier?"

Zhang Wei glanced at the commander of the 23rd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment, he should have told Shi Jue that this kid was quite righteous.

"Yes, Brigadier Shi!"

Shi Jue nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, let's go, the division commander wants to see the hero, but unfortunately this hero is not our 4th division." Zhang Wei didn't know how to ride a horse, so he simply ran behind, while Xu Yi led the team back first and went to Qiu Wei and them.

While feeling the soil stirred up by the horses, I thought about how to deal with the officials, don't swallow my credit.

Chen Daqing's division command post was very close to the front line, and it took five or six minutes to get there, surrounded by vigilant soldiers and communications equipment, and from time to time there were cavalry search teams. Entering the command post, Zhang Wei saw a group of operational staff officers and several people wearing the ranks of lieutenant colonel and major general.

Chen Daqing was among them, Zhang Wei stood in place and did not move, Shi Jue went up first and muttered a few words to Chen Daqing, probably reporting Zhang Wei's situation. Chen Daqing's face also became very interesting, he was silent for a while, walked up to Zhang Wei and patted him on the shoulder, and then said a few words of encouragement,

"Company Commander Zhang has such righteousness and public spirit, which is rare, and he will be a model for our country's soldiers in the future." Chen Daqing heard that Zhang Wei not only fought together, but also killed a lot of people in the army, which should be thanked, in the final analysis, the main reason is that he has the 200 division behind him as a backer, otherwise do you think Chen Daqing can be polite with a little captain for a long time? Of course, he still admired Zhang Wei's command and the performance of the troops.

Chen Daqing and Zhang Wei said a few polite words and asked Zhang Wei about the specific combat process and lessons learned.

"Chief Chen, after these two battles, I will say it bluntly, I found that the brothers of the 4th Division are more than brave, but their skills are insufficient, and some of the tactics used to attack the fortifications, such as the coordination and cover of earthwork and machine gun fire, are insufficient, and there are slight flaws."

Zhang Wei said a little euphemistically, in the battle just now, when the troops of the 4th Division charged, they were brave and brave, but the use of tactics was not timely, for example, when the 24th Regiment attacked Longshan, it slowly advanced, but no one organized the throwing of grenades, and no one threw a large number of grenades until the distance reached the time of fighting bayonets. And some recruits tend to panic, but this is a common problem.

After Zhang Wei finished speaking, Chen Daqing sighed: "The casualties of the troops are too great, and the training in peacetime cannot be perfect, and you also know that there are some things in our national army, and there is no way." ”

"It's presumptuous, sir." Shi Jue, who was on the side, listened to Zhang Wei's telegram commenting on his troops, and was a little reluctant, Zhang Wei knew that he had offended Shi Jue a little. But let's not mix in the 4th Division system.

Leaving the division command post, Zhang Wei returned directly to the forward position of the 23rd Regiment, Zhang Wei arrived at the place, the people of the independent company had already lined up and stood up, and the officers and soldiers of the 23rd Regiment around him were preparing to leave.

After asking Qiu Wei, Zhang Wei learned that the troops wanted to continue to advance and occupy the front line of Longshan that had just been captured, and the next step was likely to be to fight Dangshan Mountain and Luofeng Mountain.

The soldiers of the 23rd Regiment were carrying baggage and ammunition, and the 2nd Battalion, which had just participated in the attack, was already deploying the captured positions, and Zhang Wei and the rest of the 23rd Regiment only needed to drive into the captured positions.

After Zhang Wei left, Chen Daqing made a decision, he wanted to fight back against the mountains of Dang Mountain, Longshan Mountain, and Luofeng Mountain! The battle just now gave him confidence, although the casualties were not small, but they all achieved the tactical goal, this time he wanted to concentrate the strength of the whole division, and completely wipe out the Japanese troops in the mountainous areas in this area.

There is another reason why he dared to do this, that is, in the previous battle, he found that the Japanese army did not seem to have many troops, so he dared to do this, and there was no new news from the corps headquarters at present, but the battle situation at this time had begun to quietly deteriorate.

On the side of Tengxian, the 10th Wing of the Japanese Army concentrated its forces to attack Fujixian, and attacked the city with the cooperation of heavy firearms, and the defenders completely collapsed, and the commander of the 122nd Division, Major General Wang Mingzhang, was hit by the Japanese army when he commanded the troops to break through, and unfortunately died in the country, and the entire 22nd Army of the Sichuan Army also began to retreat.

A few days ago, the 89th Division retreated to defend Guanqiao was not much better, the Japanese army concentrated its forces to attack Guanqiao after seizing the Nansha River, the 89th Division 267 Brigade 533 Regiment defended Guanqiao, the main force of the 63rd Wing was all pressed to Guanqiao, the defenders used the strength of a regiment to deal with the main force of a wing, it can be said that it was very difficult, under the huge casualties, the officers and soldiers of the 533rd Regiment relied on the fortifications to resist stubbornly, and repeatedly tug-of-war on the periphery of Guanqiao and in the city.

Seeing that the attack was ineffective, the Japanese army further strengthened the attack, you know, the 63rd Wing was strengthened. Under the onslaught of the Japanese army, the 533rd Regiment finally lost Guanqiao, and in the battle, Hou Ke, the commander of the 3rd Battalion, died heroically, and Guanqiao was completely lost.

As soon as the official bridge was lost, Lincheng completely lost its barrier, and Lincheng was the next target of the Japanese army, and Lincheng was the transportation hub of the Chinese army on the Jinpu line! Before the telegram of the loss of Guanqiao arrived, the main force of the 63rd Wing hurriedly whipped up and went straight to Lincheng!
