Chapter 100: Front and Back
"Commander Gao, here you are the main army, my twentieth army is here to help, everything is based on five hundred troops! How you say to fight, let's fight! You set a charter, and I, Yang Jichao, must do it according to the charter! ”
Yang Hanyu is an authentic Sichuanese, not tall, sturdy, and bright-eyed, giving people a feeling of extreme energy, and a thick Sichuan accent when he speaks.
Sitting on the left hand side of Commander Yang was Yang Gancai, commander of the 134th Division. Yang Gancai has a nickname called "Yang Erke", legend has it that he is fond of opium, smokes opium too much, and his eyes are bulging, just like the two cylinders in mahjong. Although I don't know what the inevitable connection between smoking opium and drumming eyes is, through Gao Quan's personal observation, this Yang Gancai really has a pair of goldfish eyes.
"Hehe, Commander Yang is polite. What is the main army of the guest army, in China, we are all the main army, and the little devil is our common enemy! Since Brother Jichao wants to hear my thoughts, then Gao Quan will put his humble opinion on the table, if there is anything that can't be said, Brother Jichao can bring it up at any time! ”
"Now it is you and my army who are fighting together against the devils, and sincere unity is the first thing. Brothers work together, and their profits are golden! The 20th Army and the 500th Army combined are tens of thousands of horses, and you and I will work together to win another battle on the banks of the Miluo River! Even if you can't completely annihilate the Sixth Division, you must annihilate some of it! Let Chief Xue of the theater, chairman of the Military Commission, and the people of the whole country see that although you and my 20th and 500th armies are not the elite of the central government, we are not weaker than any elite army on the battlefield of fighting for the country and the nation! ”
"Good!" Yang Hanyu applauded, and Yang Gancai on the side also showed a look of appreciation on his face.
Of course, the generals of the Sichuan Army knew that their troops were not the elite of the Central Army. The Sichuan army has always appeared in front of all walks of life throughout the country with poor weapons, low combat effectiveness, and the ability to fight civil wars. As for the opportunity to establish a positive image and make a name for himself in front of the people in the war zone, in the central government, and even in front of the people of the whole country, as long as he is a general who leads the troops, there is nothing he does not yearn for. Not to mention that it was Yang Hanyu and Yang Gancai who were present, even if it was Yang Sen, I am afraid that he would not be able to break free from this temptation. If these two really rejected Gao Quan today, their clan uncle would definitely not be able to spare these two nephews of their own family after knowing about it!
"I, Yang Hanyu, swear here, starting from me, the Twentieth Army will never do anything to be sorry for the Five Hundred Army! Attack the enemy, I will attack first! Retreat, I retreat! Unexpectedly, Yang Hanyu actually stretched out his hand and swore an oath, and now, not only Gao Quan, but also Wu Guangxing and Xie Zhongming, who were with Gao Quan, were stunned. Even Yang Gancai, who was sitting with Yang Hanyu, his own family brother Yang Gancai, looked at Yang Hanyu beside him in surprise.
After Yang Hanyu finished swearing, he looked at Gao Quan with blazing eyes, which means, I have sworn all, should you Commander Gao also have something to say?
Gao Quan: Who is that? As soon as he saw Yang Hanyu looking at him, he knew what the idea of the commander of the Twentieth Army was. Commander Yang listened to Gao Quan's words that he could be famous in the whole country, and he was tempted. I am willing to follow you to become famous throughout the country, I will listen to what you say, my 20th Army will not be sorry for you, but you also have to swear that you can't be sorry for my 20th Army!
How binding can an oath be during the war years? But now Yang Hanyu really has nothing to restrain Gao Quan, except to swear by him, Commander Yang has no other way, even if it is to comfort himself, he always wants a guarantee.
"Everyone is fighting the war, in fact, there is no need to swear. Since Commander Yang swore an oath, then I'll swear an oath here. Our 500 Army will never do anything that hurts relatives and enemies are happy, and we will never be sorry for the 20th Army on the battlefield! Gao Quan learned from Yang Hanyu's appearance, raised his right hand and swore an oath.
Gao Quan swore without any stumbles, Yang Hanyu was obviously relieved, and he didn't know how this famous general of the Sichuan army could believe the effect of the oath?
"Good! The two generals are worthy of being the tiger generals of the country, and they are really courageous! Wu Guangxing took the lead in applauding, and those present immediately clapped their hands in congratulations.
This time I was going to meet with Commander Yang Hanyu, and Commander Gao specially sent someone to call Secretary Wu and Deputy Commander Xie back to cheer. met with the famous generals of the Sichuan Army, and with the participation of these two Gao Quan's nominal deputies, it also seemed that his reception was of a high standard.
Secretary Wu is really a wonderful person, and he applauded and cheered at this time, which directly resonated with everyone present, and just brought out the warm atmosphere.
"The Japanese Third Division is fighting with General Fu Zhongfang's 99th Army; The 40th Division moved south under the constant attacks and volleys of the 37th and 58th Armies; Combined with the fact that the Sixth Division did not return to the division to rescue the 23rd Wing, it also went all the way south to the bank of the Laodao River. Therefore, I judge that the main goal of the Japanese army in this battle must be to capture our Changsha! The Sixth Division led by Kanda Masashong does not want to fight a decisive battle with you and me here, he should be in a hurry to lead the troops to Changsha to make meritorious service now! ”
Gao Quan looked at the map and analyzed the military situation to the two generals of the 20th Army, who were full of seriousness and nodded frequently.
"Therefore, the main task of our two armies now is to block the southward path of the Sixth Division and prevent it from reaching Changsha smoothly! Try as much time as possible to prepare for the decisive battle between our theater army and the Japanese invaders under Changsha City! When Gao Quan said this, his eyes looked around at everyone seated, "Our army dragged the Sixth Division to Piaofeng Ridge for one more day, and Changsha City was safe for one more day!" For the sake of the war zone, for the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Changsha, Gao decided to have my 500 troops to fight against Kanda Zhengzhong's troops head-on! Brother Jichao, Brother Chendong, the responsibility of flanking and harassing the Japanese in the flank and rear was handed over to the 20th Army. ”
"Admonishment!" Yang Hanyu is really a man in temperament, this one was excited, his face turned red, "Let's let my 20th Army serve as a frontal blocker of the enemy!" This is not the time to be polite, Yang Hanyu can say this, which shows his determination to fight against the Japanese invaders.
"Brother Jichao doesn't have to fight, Gao Quan's speech has never been false. Since I said that the 500 Army is blocking the enemy head-on, it means that the 500 Army has the determination to block the enemy head-on! You and I are both soldiers of the country, and for the survival of our country and nation, we should have left life and death behind a long time ago! Being able to die on the battlefield of resistance against Japan is a blessing for my generation of soldiers! ”
After saying some righteous and awe-inspiring words, Gao Quan's words turned sharp, and a somewhat strange smile appeared on his face, "I also expect the 20th Army of Brother Chao to contribute more when attacking the Japanese invaders, lest my 500 army suffer too many casualties by then!" Hehe. ”
Yang Hanyu only felt a rush of blood and qi rushing to his head, his eyes widened, and he blurted out: "Commander Gao, rest assured, as long as I, Yang Hanyu, am still alive, as long as my twentieth army is not dead, the little devil of the turtle son will not want to have a good life!" ”
