Jinzhou, the headquarters of the 7th Brigade of Reading Force.

Chief of Staff Zhao Zhenfan just put down the phone, forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and told the brigade commander Wang Yizhe on the side the news of the garrison's unprecedented victory in defeating the three divisions of the Yue Army.

After listening to this, Wang Yizhe was stunned on the spot for a while, and asked uncertainly for a long time: "Brother Guoping, is this true?" ”

"It is absolutely true, according to the report of our army's forward observation post, the garrison brigade will launch a counterattack on the whole line against the Yue army under the cover of the air force with the same cavalry regiment that came from the direction of Jilin, and the Yue army has been completely defeated, and the corpses are everywhere from Sujiatun to Liaoyang." Zhao Zhenfan replied excitedly.

"Well, that's fucking beautiful! My king Yizhe can have such a virtuous son-in-law, what more can a husband ask for! Wang Yizhe slammed the festival and praised.

"Brigade seat, report to the young marshal, right?" Zhao Zhenfan asked.

"Well, send a message to the young marshal and report it truthfully." Wang Yizhe said.

"Yes!" Zhao Zhenfan replied and turned to leave.

Beiping, Zhongnanhai.

As early as last year, after Zhang Shaoshuai led his troops into the customs, he selected several mansions in the western suburbs of Beiping and Zhongnanhai in the Forbidden City.

Among them, Zhongnanhai is one of them, which covers an area of more than 150 hectares, of which the water area is 50 hectares.

There are many pavilions, the water waves are green, and the young marshal often goes boating and swimming with Miss Zhao Si in his spare time, which is not comfortable and romantic.

At this time, the young marshal was walking along the Taiye Pond with Miss Zhao Si, and the road was guarded by heavily armed guards.

Looking at the flowery buildings and palaces, accompanied by beautiful women, under the moon before the flowers, the young marshal seems to have forgotten the already blazing Northeast.

Miss Zhao Si was walking with the young marshal in her arms, when suddenly there was a rush of footsteps behind them.

When Zhang Shaoshuai heard the sound, he looked back and saw that the attendant adjutant Chen Dazhang was hurrying over.

Zhang Shaoshuai said to Miss Zhao Si: "Qixia, you go to the front and wait for me first." ”

"Hmm." Zhao Yidi nodded very understandingly, let go of Young Marshal Zhang, and walked forward alone.

Zhang Shaoshuai looked at Zhao Yidi's slender back and gradually walked away, and then turned around.

Chen Dazhang hurriedly stepped forward, and immediately saluted and said: "Young marshal, the communication room has just received an urgent report from Brigadier Wang Yizhe. ”

"Huh? What's the matter? Zhang Shaoshuai asked.

"The three divisions of the Kwantung Army that attacked Shenyang were all defeated by the garrison brigade led by Zhang Xinghan, and Shenyang was saved." Chen Dazhang replied.

"What? The garrison brigade defeated the army of three divisions? Zhang Xueliang was taken aback, his face full of disbelief.

"Yes, the frontal defeat, the three divisions of the Yue army suffered heavy losses, they were almost disabled, and now they have all retreated to the Liaoyang area." Chen Dazhang nodded.

Zhang Shaoshuai was stunned on the spot, and after a long time, he roared in disbelief: "How is this possible? It's absolutely impossible. ”

The voice was so loud that Miss Zhao Si, who had already walked away, heard it and couldn't help but stop and turn around.

Sensing his gaffe, Zhang Shaoshuai suppressed the anger in his heart and instructed Chen Dazhang: "You go back first, and inform Chief of Staff Rong to immediately verify the real surname of this information." ”

"Yes!" After Chen Dazhang saluted, he turned around and left.

…………………………

In Shenyang City, it was late at night.

Zhang Xinghan and Sabuli both drank a lot of wine, and the two of them walked on their backs, both stumbling a little under their feet, and Shen Xingye followed behind, waiting for Zhang Xinghan to help him when he was unstable on his feet.

At the wine table just now, Zhang Xinghan saw the amount of wine and the bold surname of this natural cavalryman, the descendant of Genghis Khan.

Sabuli also admired Zhang Xinghan a lot, after all, Zhang Xinghan was so young but capable of turning the tide, leading a garrison brigade of less than 10,000 people not only to hold Shenyang City, but also to defeat several times the enemy.

This is definitely worthy of his Sabuli admiration and admiration.

The two of them saw each other as if they were old, and the officers and soldiers took turns toasting, and they both drank too much by the end.

Unable to ride a horse, Zhang Xinghan and Sabuli supported each other and walked back to the brigade headquarters.

Liu Jianguo and Wang Yicai were fine, they were not too drunk, and they were settling down with the assistance of Zang Shiyi at this time.

After returning to the brigade headquarters, Zhang Xinghan asked Shen Xingye to send Sabuli to the room that had been prepared for him to rest.

He staggered towards the bedroom, speechless all night.

The next morning, Zhang Xinghan opened his eyes with a headache, washed up and ate breakfast.

Liu Jianguo, Wang Yicai, Gao Zhihang, Sabuli and others have been waiting for him in the conference room for a long time.

"Good morning, everybody!" Zhang Xinghan walked into the conference room and greeted him with a smile.

Liu Jianguo and the others hurriedly got up and said one after another: "The brigade seat is early, and Commander Zhang is early." ”

"Alright, let's all sit down." Zhang Xinghan came to the first place and sat down, and said solemnly.

Everyone sat down, Zhang Xinghan looked around at the people present and asked, "How is it, have the battle results and battle losses been counted?" ”

Liu Jianguo replied: "It's all counted, in this battle, our army annihilated more than 12,000 people and captured countless weapons and ammunition. ”

More than 10,000 people! Everyone present was surprised and proud.

Rao was personally involved in the battle of a lifetime yesterday, and they were also shocked by this number.

More than 10,000 people, since the First Sino-Japanese Naval War, the Chinese nation has never won an unprecedented victory in all wars.

Zhang Xinghan had already expected it in his heart, and continued to ask excitedly: "What about our losses?" ”

"Back to the brigade, according to statistics, our garrison brigade and the reinforcement cavalry regiment have a total of more than 2,000 killed and wounded, and more than 3,000." Liu Jianguo replied.

As soon as Liu Jianguo's words came out, Zhang Xinghan's mood became extremely heavy in an instant, with 5,000 casualties, and his garrison brigade could be said to have suffered more than half of the casualties.

This is still a situation where absolute air superiority is occupied and the situation of the battle is completely unfavorable to the other side.

In the eyes of Liu Jianguo and others, it is completely worth celebrating and congratulating that they were able to annihilate more than 12,000 people of the Yue army at the cost of 5,000 casualties and achieve such a brilliant victory.

However, Zhang Xinghan did not think so, his troops were one era more advanced than the Yue army in terms of equipment, but they still paid such a heavy price in casualties.

It has to be said that the combat effectiveness of the Yue army should not be underestimated, and if they also have weapons and equipment and air power close to those of the garrison brigades, then the result of this battle should be rewritten.

Of course, this made Zhang Xinghan clearly recognize the fact that the recruits he hastily recruited were far inferior to the Yue Army in terms of training and combat experience.

If this kind of battle happens once or twice, it is not at all something that you can bear.

In the final analysis, he is not Zhang Shaoshuai, and the available troops under his command are really small, and the temporary expansion of troops is not to mention the quality, and the proportion of battle losses cannot keep up.

Zhang Xinghan was worried, but Liu Jianguo and the others didn't know, and said: "Brigade seat, do you think you will report the great victory achieved by our department to the young marshal or Nanjing Power Generation?" ”

When Zhang Xinghan heard this, he immediately came back to his senses, no matter what the situation is in the future, this good news must be sent now.

After making up his mind, Zhang Xinghan immediately got up and said solemnly: "Immediately send a telegram to Chairman Jiang in Nanjing, our department was defeated yesterday by tens of thousands, killed 12,000 enemies, captured countless people, and Shenyang is safe for the time being!" ”

"Yes!" Liu Jianguo, Wang Yicai, and Sabuli got up at the same time to respond.
