Chapter 214: The Battle of Nanjing (This is also a victory?) )
The Japanese army was indeed very strong, but in the case of unwilling to fight, and even frantically retreating back to the reinforcement headquarters regardless of sacrifice, it was naturally defeated step by step.
The soldiers who had been in ambush for several hours in the freezing weather naturally did not let go of this opportunity to beat the water dogs, and chased and killed them all the way until they completely disappeared from the little devil.
Noda Masao and Ono's subordinates suffered heavy casualties, because Han Xin anticipated their actions in advance, so they fell into an ambush and lost 1/3 of their men and horses.
Of course, even so, the ratio of casualties between the Japanese and the national military this time was still close to 1:1.
This is a shame in the eyes of Noda and Masao, but in the eyes of the national army, it is already a victory.
And this is where Noda Masao and Ono are most angry, if it weren't for the fact that these cunning Shina people attacked their headquarters and forced them to retreat to help.
Even if they were ambushed, they could deal with it calmly and retreat in an orderly manner, and even in terms of casualties, they were far smaller than the national army.
Galloping all the way, Ono ordered someone to call the headquarters several times, but no one responded, and then he simply couldn't dial.
How did he know that it was Lu Guangwei, who had plucked the feathers of the goose, directly unplugged the telephone line and installed the phone.
Ono's heart became more and more depressed, and he began to work with Noda Masao to constantly urge the soldiers to speed up.
"Ono-kun, it's here!"
Noda Masao's heart was overjoyed, but when the chaotic headquarters tent came into view, his only glimmer of joy suddenly sank into the abyss.
"Yaga!"
Noda Masao roared, his heart had sunk to the bottom, looking at this situation, it was very likely that the brigade commander and others were captured alive by the enemy.
"Ono-kun, I'm going to fight with these people, and I must save the brigade commander."
Seeing that Ono-kun also walked over with a gloomy face, Noda Masao roared angrily.
"Noda-kun......"
Crash!
"Who? Come out! ”
"Wing, Captain! Self, your own people! A Japanese language suddenly came from the invisible black shadow.
A Japanese soldier walked out tremblingly, and when he saw Ono and the others, his eyes clearly flashed with joy.
"You, you're a soldier guarding the headquarters, I know you, how is the brigade commander?" Masao Noda asked nervously.
The little devil soldier replied calmly: "As soon as you go on the front foot, a group of people will come from the back foot to attack the headquarters, we have few people, and these enemies are moving very quickly.
So we simply didn't have time to organize an evacuation and let the brigade commander escape, and the brigade commander and several commanders were captured alive by the enemy! ”
"All captured alive!"
Brother Noda's eyes widened for a moment, and his face was full of disbelief.
Fortunately, the soldier quickly reacted and stammered: "No, no, General Yanagawa escaped!"
"Oh, General Yanagawa has escaped! Where is the general now? ”
This was a real surprise, Noda asked hurriedly.
"The general is not far ahead, and he also saw the fire on your side, so let me take a look at the situation."
"Take us there!"
...... "General! At the moment when he saw Yanagawa Heisuke with a decadent and angry expression, Noda Masao's tone was slightly sad.
Yanagawa Heisuke nodded a little distractedly, and looked at Noda Masao and the others, who were also defeated by the remnants.
Weakly said: "Let's talk about it!" What's the situation? ”
"General, what a trap! That's a trap.
The defenders of Yuhuatai had long expected that we would attack the left flank position, and had placed a large number of troops and horses there early in the morning.
Fortunately, although there are many enemies, their soldiers are very weak in combat ability, and they are extremely lacking in military literacy.
It's just that we didn't expect that their real purpose was actually our headquarters......"
"Yes! I really didn't expect it, I didn't expect it! Hehe, it's all my fault! Yanagawa Heisuke began to complain about himself.
Noda Masao said respectfully and comfortingly: "General, there is an old saying in China, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and you didn't expect these people to be so cunning!"
Please cheer up, we are still waiting for you to lead us back and rescue the village general! ”
"yes? Murakita-kun is still in their hands. ”
Yanagawa Heisuke sighed, and then said with a firm look in his eyes: "Wait! We cannot repeat the mistakes of the past, when the divisions and regiments do not arrive at large units, and all military operations are canceled.
Wait for the arrival of our large army, and let us be ashamed again! Chinese Isn't it often said that under absolute absolute power, all conspiracies and tricks are false, hehe......"
……
In the left flank position of Yuhuatai, the soldiers were cleaning the battlefield, Zhou Dalong looked at the corpses of the dead brothers, his eyes showed sadness, and he sighed:
"The fucking little devil is really difficult, we took advantage of the time and place in this battle, and we didn't get much of a bargain."
Han Xin smiled and comforted: "Don't worry! Our 388 regiment will never trade at a loss, and when Guangwei comes back, it will bring us a big surprise. ”
"Commander, do you mean that the third child has succeeded?"
"Haha, let's wait and see!"
In this battle, the time was short and long, in short, and it didn't take long for the sky to gradually brighten.
Zhu Chi and Gao Zhichong had already heard the gunshots, but they were worried that their positions would be attacked, so they kept their troops still.
However, as the gunfire stopped, their curiosity suddenly exploded, and naturally it was impossible to hold back any longer, so Zhu Chi and Gao Zhichong immediately came together and found Han Xin.
"Captain Han is really like a god! The night attack of the little devil was actually expected by you. ”
As soon as they met, Gao Zhichong praised Han Xin without hesitation, and then asked the regiment commander who belonged to his own brigade who was sent out to support the 388th Regiment:
"How's it going, what's going on?"
"Report to the brigade commander, our ambush battle was victorious in this battle, defeating a brigade attacked by the little devils, and annihilating more than 2,000 little devils."
"Good! Another big victory! ”
Gao Zhichong's face was overflowing with joy, but Zhu Chi then asked in a deep voice, "How are our casualties?"
"This, this...... I, too, have suffered nearly 2,000 casualties. ”
"Oh? You've also killed and wounded nearly 2,000 men? That is to say, you ambushed the little devils, and as a result, the number of soldiers and the little devils who died was about the same.
Hmph, you are embarrassed to say this kind of victory, but you just didn't lose the battle. ”
Zhu Chi scolded with a blank face, but when he spoke, he looked at Han Xin intentionally or unintentionally, and seeing that Han Xin still didn't react, he actually asked Han Xin directly: "Commander Han, I don't know how many people your 388th Regiment sacrificed in this battle?"
Han Xin's expression remained unchanged, and he couldn't guess the specific reason why Zhu Chi always deliberately embarrassed him, but the soldiers would block the water and cover the earth.
Han Xin didn't hide it at all, and said: "Back to Brigade Commander Zhu, our regiment has sacrificed more than 500 people and seriously injured more than 300 ......."
"Heh, that is to say, your 388th regiment only sacrificed more than 500 people, while the soldiers of our two brigades sacrificed nearly 1,500 people!"
"Yes!"
"Yes! Commander Han, I borrowed 4,000 soldiers from you, and you lost nearly half of them.
The result? Only 2,000 ghosts were destroyed. Isn't it that the account of the head of the Han regiment is calculated like this, the devil died 2000, and your regiment only died 500, so the big victory failed? ”
In the last sentence, Zhu Chi almost questioned, and the soldiers on both sides were silent at this moment.
