Chapter 65: Reconnaissance Mission
Tokutaro Shikai didn't plan to give up with the 500 army when he came this time!
Just like the fateful rivals, the 500th Army has always been able to gain something in repeated collisions with the 6th Division, and correspondingly, the 6th Division has been injured again and again in encounters with the 500th Army. Don't look at Gao Quan and the 500th Army as if they have a bad reputation in the national army, but among the middle and high-level officers of the 6th Division, the 500th Army is famous.
As a senior major general commander of the Sixth Division, Tokutaro Shikai was of course quite deeply touched by this. Especially in the Second Battle of Changsha, the 500 Army commanded by Gao Quan completely annihilated the 13th Wing of General Zhuojing's descendants, and beat the Zhuojing detachment to the point of losing troops and being embarrassed. Tokutaro Shikai lost face because of this incident, and the hatred in his heart for the 500 Army and Gao Quan can already be described as not sharing the sky.
This time, I heard that the 500 Army intercepted the 23rd Wing again, and Tokutaro Shikai is new hatred and old hatred came to his heart, and he planned to come desperately with Gao Quan!
"Okamoto-kun, how much combat strength does the 23rd Wing still have?"
"Almost sixty percent." Okamoto actually said a big thing, as far as he knew, the casualties of the 23rd Wing had already passed half, and the raids of the 500th Army and the 95th Division were still continuing, and God knows how many casualties the 23rd Wing had added.
"Sixty percent?" Tokutaro Garbage gasped, obediently, isn't this equivalent to being beaten to a half-cripple? Half-crippled too!
"Okamoto-kun, you immediately go back and command the troops and repel the Chinese army harassing behind you! With Tomoshi Tomotoshi's 13th Wing, plus Okamoto-kun's 23rd Wing, the two forces will merge into one force and attack together, and we will fight to the death with the 500 Army here! The follow-up troops of the 6th Division, led by the division commander, arrived later. This time, we must wipe out the 500 Army, avenge the soldiers who died in our 6th Division, and for Saeda and Okamoto Hoyuki! ”
"Hey!" Okamoto bowed ninety degrees, agreed loudly, raised his hand and saluted, turned to leave.
The 500 Army has killed the 45th Wing and the 13th Wing, and even his 23rd Wing has planted a big heel this time, and Okamoto Dazuo also hates the 500 Army to the core! This time, General Garbage Well brought a fresh army to prepare for a decisive battle with the 500 Army, and there was a large army led by the division commander as a backup, and the encirclement and annihilation of the 500 Army was imminent, Okamoto Dazuo was excited, and he wanted to go back immediately to reorganize the troops and prepare to participate in this revenge battle!
"Tokutaro Shikai, Okamoto Shoto" Gao Quan wrote these two names on the paper, and whispered them twice in his mouth.
"Report, this is the casualty statistics sent by the 500th Division and the New 501st Division." The communications corpsman handed the two telegrams with the casualty figures to the military seat.
Gao Quan frowned when he took it and saw it, "How can the casualty number be so big?" ”
"I heard that a large number of Japanese planes appeared on the battlefield, causing great casualties to our soldiers." The tone of the signal soldier was full of indignation, as soon as the devil fought, it was both artillery and airplanes, and every time it caused a lot of casualties to our army.
"I heard?" Without a little evidence, what you have heard can be used as a report? Gao Quan just wanted to open his mouth to reprimand this communication soldier who did not speak rigorously, but the guard came to report, and the commander of the reconnaissance regiment, Shi Lei, came.
"Here comes the stone, sit." Gao Quan raised his hand and pointed to a chair opposite for Shi Lei to sit. Gao Quan's office occupies the study of a large landlord in Majiahezi Village, and several chairs are old-fashioned furniture with solid wood carvings and bright paint, which looks simple and heavy.
"I heard that the devils have a lot of planes on the battlefield, do you know?" Shi Lei is the head of the reconnaissance group, and Gao Quan wants to inquire about the news and find him, even if he finds the right person.
"Yes, indeed." Sure enough, Shi Lei gave Gao Quan a positive answer in the first sentence, "At the beginning, there were still one or two devil planes occasionally, but just before we came, the number and number of devil planes on the battlefield suddenly increased a lot. Well, it should be that after the thirteenth wing came, the number of devils' planes increased. ”
"Hehe, how can Tokutaro Shikai say that he is also a major general infantry commander, of course, it is not comparable to Okamoto Zhenchen, the captain of the Osa. Major General, of course, when you go to the battlefield, you must have the style of a major general, and mobilize planes to help, so as to show that this general is not an ordinary person. Gao Quan smiled and talked to his reconnaissance leader. You send someone to find out the location of Major General Garbage, and let's see if we can send a surprise to this Major General. ”
"I'll go myself!" As soon as Shi Lei heard Gao Quan's words, he immediately sat up straight. The order given by the military seat himself, of course, he, the commander of the reconnaissance regiment, had to carry it out himself.
"Okay, stay safe on the road. Bring the radio and report back to you when you find something! Shi Lei went in person, of course the chance of completing the task was greater, Gao Quan looked at the reconnaissance head and nodded solemnly, "This investigation is very important, and your personal safety is even more important!" I don't want to compensate you, the commander of the reconnaissance regiment, for a mission, don't let me lose money, I must come back alive! ”
Gao Quan rarely has this kind of explanation, and this time he doesn't know why he said such a thing casually, and even he himself was stunned after finishing speaking, could it be that something is really going to happen on this mission? Shi Lei didn't feel anything else, just a little moved, "Don't worry, the stone knows what to do." "I've been a scout for so many years, and there has never been a shortage of life-saving skills, and the commander of the reconnaissance regiment has never been lacking.
"Let's go, I'll send you out." As soon as Shi Lei stood up, Gao Quan also stood up.
"Don't use it?" This time Shi Lei really felt a little weird, he had performed countless missions, but the military seat had never treated him with such courtesy.
"Let's go, I'm going to Xiao Si's to have a look, just by the way."
Gao Quan smiled and walked outside the room with the reconnaissance regiment commander, and the guard at the door turned his head to look at the two people who came out, "Prepare the car, I'll go to the artillery regiment." ”
"Yes!" The guard said yes and ran away.
"Your mission is to investigate, not to attack, and under no circumstances do you want to assassinate Tokutaro Shikai! All you have to do is figure out where he is, report him back, and you're done. Gao Quan explained the details of the investigation to the reconnaissance head along the way, and Shi Lei listened carefully on the side and nodded frequently.
"Crunch!" The brakes sounded, a jeep and a truck stopped at the door of the rich man's house, and Hu Biao, the commander of the guard battalion, jumped out of the jeep and walked over a few steps.
"Biaozi, I'll learn two tricks from you one day!" Shi Lei greeted the guard battalion commander with a smile.
"Anytime, as long as Captain Shi has time." Biao Zi grinned with his teeth, this smile is not as good as when he is not smiling. "Take care all the way!" Biao Zi knew that Shi Lei had received the task when he went out from Gao Quan. Scouts have always carried out dangerous tasks, after Biaozi became the guard of the military seat, he also followed Gao Quan to do several reconnaissance work, knowing the danger and difficulty here, he stood up straight and saluted Shi Lei uprightly.
