"Nani? No response for two hours! Hearing Matsumoto Kazuken's report, Major General Yoshizawa Tadashi's face suddenly changed greatly, and he exclaimed: "Impossible! The 25th Wing is a complete wing of 3,800 people, not to mention the guerrillas in China, even the government army in China can't help them! ”

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, although I also know that it is impossible, the 25th Wing has indeed lost contact for more than two hours. There are only two possibilities for this to happen www.biquge.info either the 25th Wing has been shattered, or the battle has spread to the 25th Wing's communications team and damaged the communication team's radio station. Matsumoto calmly analyzed.

"Yo Xi, it must have been a broken radio in the communications team, which caused the loss of contact between the 25th Wing and us." Major General Yoshizawa did not believe in the fact that the 25th Wing had been destroyed, and in his opinion, the Chinese army was all vulnerable, and there was no one who had the ability to destroy the imperial army in a formation except for the instructor of the Eighth Route Army.

As we all know, the instructors of the Eighth Route Army have always been active in Jinsui and Sui, and it is impossible to come to Qilu all at once. Thinking of this, Major General Yoshizawa Tadashi was immediately relieved, and still decided that the troops would accelerate their advance and rush to the battlefield as soon as possible to support the 25th Wing.

He said to Matsumoto: "Okay, Matsumoto-kun, don't worry about it anymore, the people of Shina are not capable of eating the twenty-fifth wing of the imperial army in half a day." In another two or three hours, we will be able to reach the front line of the battlefield, and together with the 25th Wing, we will attack back and forth, and wipe out all the Chinese troops who dare to infringe on the majesty of the imperial army in one fell swoop. ”

"Hey! Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, I will now go and convey your orders to speed up the troops. Although Chief of Staff Matsumoto had a faint premonition in his heart, out of blind confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, he forcibly suppressed this ominous premonition, and only thought about rushing to the battlefield as soon as possible to support the besieged 25th Wing.

"Yo Xi, that's right, Matsumoto-kun, go ahead!" Major General Yoshizawa nodded, nodded appreciatively to Matsumoto, and then closed his eyes and recuperated.

At the same time, Hu Tianming had already received a telegram from the brigade commander Deng Hua, who ordered him to first entangle the 13th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade, and then attack suddenly after the main force of the Eighth Brigade completed the encirclement of the Japanese army, and cooperate with the main force to flank the Japanese army before and after, and annihilate all the devils.

After reading the content of the telegram, Hu Tianming couldn't help but admire Deng Hua's generosity, and he was satisfied with only thinking that he could defeat the Japanese army, but Deng Hua fought the idea of swallowing all the complete independent brigades of the Japanese army.

Political Commissar He Yunsheng took the telegram in Hu Tianming's hand, and looked ecstatic on his face after a slight glance, he exclaimed: "The brigade commander has such a big appetite, he actually wants to completely annihilate an independent brigade of the Japanese army, if it can succeed, then our Eighth Brigade will be a big deal, this is a precedent for the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and a brigade of the Japanese army will be wiped out with the strength of one brigade!" This kind of thing is unique in the whole country! ”

Hearing the political commissar's admiration, Hu Tianming also became excited, and he laughed and said: "Haha, since the brigade commander has such a big appetite, our 23rd Regiment has no choice but to sacrifice our lives to accompany the gentleman." Chief of Staff, the reconnaissance company has no intelligence on the Japanese army. ”

Chief of Staff Li Jianmin replied: "Regiment commander, according to the report just sent back by the reconnaissance company, the Japanese army not only did not suspect the loss of contact with the 25th Wing, but instead accelerated the speed of the march and hurried towards our pocket formation, which is expected to arrive in two hours. ”

Hu Tianming was overjoyed and said: "Okay! Good! Since the devils are so anxious to be reincarnated, let's fulfill them, I just hope that they will not be Japanese in the next life, even if they are reincarnated as pigs and dogs! ”

"Hahahaha!" Listening to Hu Tianming's interesting words, everyone in the regiment headquarters burst out laughing.

In fact, everyone had already expected the arrogance of the devils, and even if the Japanese brigade learned the news that the 25th Wing had been completely annihilated, they would not stop marching.

There were so many battles with the Japanese army, and all the commanders and fighters of the instructor knew a lot about the Japanese army, in their opinion, the Japanese soldiers had nothing to say, they were all powerful, but the officers of the Japanese army did not dare to compliment, almost all of them were fools with tendons.

The Japanese officers, from division commanders to squad leaders, all have the pride that Lao Tzu is the first in the world and you Chinese are all scum, which makes them often do not know how to advance or retreat when the battlefield situation is unfavorable, and they all have a desire not to hit the south wall and not die.

As long as the instructors and fighters grasped the arrogant and arrogant character trait of the Japanese officers, they could simply grasp one by one, and almost every time they could annihilate the Japanese troops in a systematic manner, causing the Japanese army to suffer heavy losses.

"Call all the commanders of several battalions over, the main force of the brigade needs to complete the encirclement of the Japanese army, and our regiment needs to hold back the devil for at least two hours, this task is not easy, we have to deploy well." Hu Tianming ordered.

"Yes, Commander, I'll deliver it right away." A member of the communications team immediately took the order.

Fifteen minutes later, the battalion commanders, deputy battalion commanders, and instructors all rushed over from their positions to attend the pre-war meeting.

The 23rd Regiment has a total of three infantry battalions, in addition to the commander of the third battalion, Zhang Fengnian, there are also the first battalion commander Wang Jianxi, the second battalion commander Liu Huasheng, and the three battalion commanders are all cadres who have been greatly promoted during the recent expansion of the instructor, and they are all around 22 years old, very young.

Although the rejuvenation of cadres has always kept the instructors alive, it also shows how big the gap of instructors and cadres is.

It is very common for some cadres to become battalion commanders and company commanders at the age of 20, and some cadres have just been promoted to company commanders not long ago, but as soon as the unit is expanded, the company commander will immediately become a battalion commander, as is the case with Zhang Fengnian and others.

Fortunately, under the influence of Zhang Cheng, the promotion system of the tutor generally does not look at the age and qualifications, and takes the ability and character as the promotion standard, which makes the cadres of the tutor look young, but the ability is very good, and it is also very reassuring to use.

And even if seniority is added as a promotion criterion, the young cadres who teach the instructors are not afraid of the old cadres. You must know that the predecessor of the instructor was the Young Communist International Division, which had the youngest average age of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, and they were basically around 16 or 7 years old when they joined the Red Army.

I have to say that Zhang Cheng is fortunate enough, he served as the head of the excessively young army of the International Division of the Young Communist Party when he was just starting out, although the initial period was very difficult, but after these years of tempering, the young cadres of the International Division of the Young Communist Party have grown up one by one, and now they have taken the lead among the instructors and become the mainstay of the instructors.
