Chapter 13: Striving for Merit (5)
Xiao Linghu took Lin Jinghan and Meng Fanwei back to the headquarters of the 88th Division in the Sixing Warehouse, and Yan Fei was sent to the nearby Sanmin Hospital for treatment.
Yan Fei's injury was not very serious, he was pierced through his calf by a bullet from the enemy, but fortunately, the muscles in his calf were quite developed, and the bullet did not hurt the bones, and after taking out the bullet, he was left to recuperate.
Huang Mao's body was sent to the Tianhou Temple sent by Company Commander He, which had become the final destination of the fallen soldiers of the 88th Division.
Although the weather in August has passed the end of summer, the heat has not subsided, and the corpse cannot be stored for too long.
Xiao Linghu always wanted to buy a coffin for Huang Mao, but he could only wait until after the war was over. According to reliable information, the Japanese have mobilized several divisions from the mainland and North China to rush to Shanghai, and the ** Military Commission is also mobilizing troops from all over the country to rush to Shanghai, which is already a battle-level battlefield, and it is obviously not easy to end the battle as soon as possible.
When rushing to the Sixing warehouse, Meng Fanwei grabbed the little soldier Shunzi who killed Huang Mao, he wanted to kill this kid to avenge Huang Mao's revenge, but in the end, he was also a person who had gone to a military school, knew the rules in the army, and was in the position of He Company Commander, it was inconvenient to do it, so he forcibly took Shunzi out on the grounds that he wanted to go to Commander Sun Yuan to deal with it, and took him to the headquarters of the 88th Division.
After all, it involves the misunderstanding between the two units, and it is not easy for Lian Commander He to say anything, maybe it is the most appropriate thing to leave this matter to Master Sun to deal with, and he also believes that with Sun Yuan's character of protecting the calf, Shunzi will not suffer.
The group walked into the headquarters of the 88th Division, Zhuo Tongfeng hurriedly greeted him, and saw these three dirty people, and a bound young soldier came over, and he understood what was going on, just now Sun Company Commander had called and reported to Sun Yuan, and Sun Yuan also knew about Xiao Linghu's return, but he was a little embarrassed, so he sent Zhuo Tongfeng out to comfort the emotions of these people first.
Just now, the commander's headquarters specially sent a commendation order to the 88th Division, and ordered the other attacking troops, believing that the 88th Division sent people to blow up the devil's ammunition depot, which was a great help to these battles, and in order to save ammunition, the devils even had less artillery, which made the troops attacking in the other two directions also feel the obvious reduction in the devil's firepower, and believed that with time, they would definitely be able to break the blockade of the devils, take down their headquarters, and drive them into the sea.
Of course, the 88th Division also received the most affordable material reward, that is, 10,000 oceans per person was awarded to the personnel of this operation.
At the same time, the Commander's Department gave the 88th Division another glorious task, that is, to have the 88th Division draw a regiment and capture Huishan Wharf eastward along the bank of the Huangpu River. If the battle of Huishan Wharf is captured, then for **, it is already in an invincible position in this war, because along the entire Huangpu River, only Huishan Wharf can berth super-large warships and transport ships, and the attack on Huishan Wharf means that it is impossible for the devils to get supplies from the sea and the river, and there is no landing point for the devil's reinforcements.
Undoubtedly, the commander's department's operational decision was correct, and they should have captured Huishan Pier a long time ago!
As for the gap in the encirclement that might be created by the 88th Division drawing out a regiment, the commander's headquarters has ordered other troops to fill it.
Sun Yuan had just given the order to transfer the 243rd Regiment over and assemble from Renheli to the east to capture the Huishan Wharf, and the position of the Bazi Bridge over there was transferred to the friendly troops who rushed over behind.
Sun Yuan also knew that if he wanted to capture Huishan Wharf, the first thing to solve was the problem of the two bridges on the Honghe River. Since the beginning of the battle, the 88th Division has surrounded them all the way, but it has never been able to knock out the two blockhouses set up by the devils on the Honghe River, and those two pillboxes are like a wedge, firmly stuck in their throats.
Someone suggested to Sun Yuan that if he wanted to take the bunker of the devil Hongqiao, he could only take the method of feint attack on the front and sneak attack on the back. It's just that this method has been tried by Company Commander Sun and them at the beginning, but it was not successful. So Sun Yuan thought of Xiao Linghu again. Since Xiao Linghu has the ability to sneak to Huishan Wharf at night, then there is a way to touch the back of Hongqiao and blow up the devil's bunker.
After all, it is much more difficult to blow up the devil's ammunition depot than to blow up the devil's bunker.
Therefore, asking Xiao Linghu for advice and touching the back of the devil's bunker has also become a task for Zhuo Tongfeng.
"Brother Zhuo! We're back! There was no trace of pride, but a lot of frustration, Xiao Linghu reported to Zhuo Tongfeng. At this time, their direct leader should be Zhuo Tongfeng, not Sun Yuan, the commander of the 88th Division.
"Hmm!" Zhuo Tongfeng walked over and patted him on the shoulder very excitedly, and then went to shake hands with Lin Jinghan and Meng Fanwei behind him, and said sincerely: "It's good to come back!" It's good to be back! ”
"But we sacrificed two people!" When Xiao Linghu said this, the three of them couldn't stop their sorrows.
"I've heard that!" Zhuo Tongfeng said: "They are all good, they are all our heroes!" ”
Hearing Zhuo Tongfeng so affirmed, this made the three of them feel good, especially Lin Jinghan, Zhuo Tongfeng is the chief of staff of the Ninth Army, or the rank of lieutenant colonel, his words represent the attitude of the military.
"Brother Zhuo, can you make a big contribution to Boss Lin and them?" Xiao Linghu asked him, and then pointed at Lin Jinghan.
Zhuo Tongfeng looked at Lin Jinghan, was stunned for a moment, and said: "They are the people, and there is no precedent in our army for the people to make great contributions!" ”
Xiao Linghu said: "But, this credit should be theirs?" ”
Zhuo Tongfeng said: "Then we can only inform the municipal government, and the municipal government will commend and reward them!" ”
Zhuo Tongfeng is right, this is indeed the difference between the people and the soldiers.
Lin shuddered and said: "I don't care about any commendations and awards, I just hope that you can give me the title of a hero who died in battle!" ”
Zhuo Tongfeng frowned, but he only spread his hands and said, "I really can't do anything about this matter!" As he spoke, he said to Xiao Linghu: "You may not know that Master Sun has reported to the Commander's Department that you have blown up the devil's ammunition depot, which is the credit of the 88th Division, if at this time, this matter has nothing to do with the 88th Division, and there are three ordinary people involved in it, he will be suspected of falsely claiming his military exploits, and everyone's face will not be good at that time!" ”
"What?" Xiao Linghu and Lin Jinghan hadn't said anything yet, and Meng Fanwei couldn't help but burst into a rage: "His grandmother's!" Sun Yuan is a bastard! At the beginning, he didn't let us go, he didn't even come out of the army, we succeeded, but he ran out to grab the credit, he still has to be shameless? ”
"Calm down!" Although Zhuo Tongfeng was also dissatisfied with Sun Yuan's style, he still said: "If you want to say something, he is actually not wrong, if you don't get the order, if you act without permission, not only is it useless, but you are guilty!" ”
Xiao Linghu immediately understood the meaning of his words, but his mind suddenly turned, and a way to get the best of both worlds came spontaneously.
