Yan Xishan knew that he couldn't miss this opportunity, and he immediately began to give orders.

Yan Xishan wanted to share the achievements of the Eighth Route Army, and he immediately ordered Tang Chunhua, a major general and deputy director of the Staff Office of the Second Theater Commander's Department, to go to Wutai County while the reporters had not yet come to Shanxi and that the achievements had not yet been officially publicized.

At the same time, Tang Chunhua went to Wutai County with the First Independent Infantry Regiment of the Jin Sui Army, the Third Cavalry Regiment and some baggage soldiers, who were transporting a batch of weapons and ammunition, which were naturally used by Yan Xishan to block Sun Weiguo's mouth.

At 10 o'clock in the evening of September 22, 1938, the Second Theater Commander's Headquarters sent a telegram to commend the Honorary Second Division, Yan Xishan personally commended all the officers and men of the Honorary Second Division with two pieces of ocean each, and at the same time, Yan Xishan awarded Sun Weiguo with 20,000 pieces of personal ocean in the name of the Second Theater Commander's Department.

As the battle report of the Honorary Second Division began to be reported gradually, the commanders at all levels were extremely shocked.

The troops of Sun Weiguo's Honorary Second Division wanted to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese troops in Wutai County, and this battle plan was not favored by the commanders at all levels.

They felt that Sun Weiguo's division wanted to fight a decisive battle with several divisions of the Japanese army in Wutai County, which was simply self-defeating.

After the start of the operation, many senior generals who knew Sun Weiguo's battle plan were ready to see when the Honorable Second Division would be completely annihilated.

However, when the battle report of the Honorary Second Division began to be reported gradually, their faces were full of astonishment when they saw this battle report, and they could hardly believe that the battle report they saw was true.

"How is this possible, is this honorary second division unit falsely reporting its achievements, first annihilating a mixed brigade of the Japanese army, then annihilating a garrison of the Japanese army, and now annihilating so many cavalry and armored troops directly under the division, how did they do it, I think there must be a problem here."

"This Sun Weiguo is not simple, commanding a division to make such a big move, several divisions and troops have no way to take him, I think this time in Wutai County against the Japanese army, Sun Weiguo's honorary second division may be able to create a miracle."

"It's really amazing, looking at the entire Chinese battlefield, the only one who can achieve such an achievement is this Sun Weiguo, the chairman insisted on assigning tanks to the troops of the Honorary Second Division, I still oppose it, but judging from the current situation, these tanks are sent to the right place."

"I propose to expand Sun Weiguo's troops and strengthen their troops in numbers and equipment, the North China battlefield is not important at present, I suggest that they be transferred to the most important battlefield. If Sun Weiguo's troops come to participate in the war, I think the outcome of many battles will be affected. ”

Many high-ranking generals began to evaluate the achievements of the Honorary Second Division, while some officers questioned whether the achievements of the Honorary Second Division were false.

Of course, there are also generals who see the potential of the Honorary Second Division, and they feel that if the troops of the Honorary Second Division are transferred to a more important theater, it will have a huge impact on the entire operation.

The Battle of Wuhan was in full swing, and millions of troops on both sides began to engage in the largest and most fierce general battle.

The achievements of the troops of the Eighth Route Army in North China in Shanxi were valued by the chairman of the committee.

At first, he knew that the troops of the Honorary Second Division wanted to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese troops in Wutai County, and the chairman was also worried that the troops of the Honorary Second Division would be completely annihilated, so he sent several telegrams to the headquarters of Sun Weiguo's Honorary Second Division, demanding that Sun Weiguo and his troops immediately abandon Wutai County.

However, what the chairman of the committee never dreamed of was that the troops of the Honorary Second Division first annihilated the Japanese army's independent mixed second brigade, then annihilated the Japanese army's independent garrison, and now annihilated the mobile units composed of cavalry and armored troops directly under the various divisions and regiments of the Japanese army.

Wuhan, the official residence of the Chairman of the National People's Committee.

After receiving the telegram from Lin Wei, the director of the first division of the chamber, the chairman of the committee came to the map, and he looked at the map with a solemn expression on his face.

At present, the battle of Wuhan is underway, and Wuhan, an important town, is about to be unable to be saved, and the chairman of the committee has already made plans to evacuate.

lost several important towns one after another, the chairman was not in a very good mood, and he had a very hot temper these days, even Lin Wei, who had followed him for many years, was careful in doing things, for fear of angering the chairman.

But now the chairman of the committee held the telegram in his hand, and he looked at the map, and the solemn expression on his face gradually changed to a smile.

"This Sun Weiguo is amazing, a division dares to compete with four divisions of the Japanese army, including elite troops like the first division of the Japanese army, I think if we have ten honorary second division troops like Sun Weiguo, the Japanese will not dare to be so arrogant, but it's a pity, they are fighting in North China."

The chairman stared at the map, and he smiled and said, and at the end of the day, the chairman obviously showed a bit of regret on his face.

In the opinion of the chairman of the committee, if the troops of Sun Weiguo's honorary second division are transferred to the front line in Wuhan, then the battle situation here will definitely change.

"Chairman of the Committee, I have ordered that this battle report be reported to all theaters, and this battle report will certainly boost morale. As for the transfer of the troops of the Honorary Second Division to the battlefield where they are most needed, we can plan this matter slowly, and the troops of the Eighth Route Army must also obey our command, so that they can serve the country and resist the Japanese invasion, I think they will definitely not shirk. And I have carefully studied it, as long as it is for the country and the nation, this Sun Weiguo has no hesitation. ”

Lin Wei looked at the chairman of the committee, and he said softly.

"In the name of the Military Committee, the honorary commander of the Second Division, Sun Weiguo, was awarded the Order of the Fifth Lion of the Third Class and the Order of Baoding of the Third Class, and in the name of the Ministry of Military Affairs, 50,000 yuan was awarded to the Honorary Second Division, and 10,000 yuan was awarded to the Honorary Second Division in my personal name."

The chairman of the committee looked at Lin Wei, he nodded silently, what Lin Wei said made the chairman realize that it was not a difficult thing to transfer the honorary second division to leave the North China battlefield, and the chairman believed that the troops of Sun Weiguo's honorary second division would be transferred from the North China battlefield by him sooner or later.

That night, the chairman's telegram was transmitted to the headquarters of Sun Weiguo's Honorary Second Division, but at this time, the troops of the 109th and 26th Divisions of the Japanese Army intensified their attacks on Hutou Mountain and Siling Mountain, and the Japanese troops began to use poison gas bombs in order to be able to capture these two heights.

One poison gas bomb after another began to be fired at Hutou Mountain and Siling Mountain, filling the air with smoke, and some officers and men who had not paid attention were immediately poisoned.

And the two artillery wings of the Japanese army and another artillery brigade began to concentrate their artillery to launch a fierce artillery bombardment on Hutou Mountain, and the Japanese artillery bombardment lasted for a full hour!
