Chapter 130: Beacon Nanxun

When Hakata broke through, he had less than 1,000 troops with him, and by the time he reached the shores of Poyang Lake in the northeast on September 11, he had less than 300 men.

Once a reinforced brigade of more than 10,000 people, lined up in a marching column, winding for more than ten miles, now a small boat can fit it.

Commander Okamura Ninji was waiting at the ferry, and when Habata Shigeichi arrived there, he passed by Okamura Ninji's side and left without looking at him, and Okamura Ninji and the others were embarrassed.

On 17 September, Shigeichi Hatada, commander of Taiwan's infantry brigade, was transferred to the reserve, and the establishment of the Taiwan military was abolished.

*********

"As of September 11, 7,635 Japanese corpses and 1,128 prisoners were captured at the scene, including the capture of the captain of the First Infantry Wing of the Hatata Detachment, Lin Yoshiqing Daisa, and 6 colonel-level officers, the killing of the commander of the Second Infantry Wing, Watanabe Nobuyoshi Daisa, and the capture of more than 5,400 rifles, 276 grenadiers, more than 300 light and heavy machine guns, and 14 mountain guns..."

Among them, the biggest gain is the capture of Lin Yiqing, this is the first time since the Anti-Japanese War, the first time the squadron captured the Japanese army alive, more importantly, Lin Yiqing is not an ordinary person, his significance is far from an ordinary Dazuo can be compared, he is the prime minister of the cabinet in 1937, the second son of General Lin Mi Shiro.

Lin Mijuro was the commander of North Korea at the beginning, and during the 918 Incident, he privately led his troops across the border into Northeast China, known as the general who crossed the border, and provided great assistance to the Kwantung Army's invasion and occupation of the three eastern provinces. Afterwards, the Emperor of Japan posthumously awarded him the action and promoted him to the rank of general. Japan has invaded China step by step, and in the present all-out war, Hayashi has to bear great responsibility, and ironically, he has tasted the bitter fruits of waging war today.

Xu Ming looked at this chubby, white guy with a smile, although this guy is the wing leader of the infantry wing, he is obviously very well maintained, especially a pair of hands, which are white and delicate, and feel very good.

Lin Yiqing opened his eyes and saw that he was shackled, and the two Chinese soldiers looked next to him, and there was a large group of various people in front of him, surrounded by a young man, with sword eyebrows and handsome eyes, Shenhua exposed, and extraordinary bearing, looking at his expression, with a hint of sarcasm and ridicule.

Lin Yiqing hurriedly fainted, but Xu Ming's introduction in English kept coming from his ears, "... Dear reporters, this broad-hearted, fat-hearted, plump Dazuo is Mr. Lin Yiqing, obviously, Lin Dazuo's nutritional status has been maintained at a very high level. But that's not necessarily a good thing for a senior officer, and if he had lost 10 kilometres, he probably wouldn't be here to meet us today..."

Lin Yiqing had traveled in Europe and heard the Chinese introduce him like a zoo animal, and next to him, Chinese and foreign reporters were constantly asking questions, and the young man answered with humorous words. This sentence pierced his body like a knife, and there were flashing magnesium lights around him, and then he was photographed.

An American reporter saw Lin Yiqing's expression and asked, "General Xu, this Japanese officer seems to be in great pain, and I would like to ask if today's treatment will bring a shadow to his future life." ”

Xu Ming smiled, "Mr. Daniel, I don't have any dislike for him, Lin Dazuo only recently went to China to participate in the war, and I haven't heard of how many bad deeds he has. However, he is not an innocent victim, he is an aggressor, and he will be punished now and in the future. ”

This is Xu Ming's heart, he really has no ill feelings towards Lin Yiqing, but who told him to run into a bastard father.

After winning the battle, Xu Ming had a lot of things, and after receiving the reporters, there was a very important thing, which was to write a battle report. This report was submitted to Lao Chiang, and this report was not a simple report on his work, but involved the evaluation of various units participating in the battle, and served as a major basis for the Central Military Commission to reward meritorious deeds.

The most important thing is not this, Xu Ming wants to embody in this report his operational thinking for the next stage of the operation, and Chiang Kai-shek should support his opinion just after the victory.

Two points were emphatically written: First, when corps-level troops are fighting, they should have a unified logistics organization and organization; The second is the mutual cooperation between the military and political departments and the civil affairs departments. These were the biggest problems exposed in the early stage of the Nanxun Battle, and they must be resolved in the next stage of the operation.

The distribution of the spoils of war is also quite painstaking, because it is a siege and annihilation battle, a lot of captures are made, but there are more troops participating in the battle, and how to divide them needs to be well summed up. In this battle, some troops belong to "eating meat", that is to say, they are fighting a tailwind battle, and some troops are "gnawing bones", the most obvious is the 70th Army, this unit has been disabled, and only 1 battalion of combat troops is left after the withdrawal of 1 army, which is not good to divide more trophies, it is to hurt Li Jue and even the entire Hunan army's combat enthusiasm, after careful consideration, Xu Ming decided to hand over the captured head, 12 of the 14 mountain guns, and a batch of light and heavy machine guns to Li Jue.

Hey, it's much more tiring to win a battle than to lose a battle, like Hakuda Shigeichi, it is estimated that he will find a place to rest and have nothing to do, Xu Ming, who is so busy that his hands and feet are non-stop, is even a little envious of his defeated men.

But he couldn't rest, he called out to the guards, and walked along the railway line in the direction of the Jinguan Bridge.

The foundation of the railway was dug up, and later after Xu Ming's renovation, it was barely able to pass the horse-drawn cart, and Xu Ming and his party of more than 100 people, all riding horses, clucked to the south.

Xu Ming drooped his head, not only in the hot weather, but also in the tired mind, ah, if you can find a pond and take a good bath in it, what a pleasure it is. However, Xu Ming immediately remembered the river and lake that he had passed through during the battle, polluted by blood, soaked in a swollen corpse, and flies circling around, thinking of this, Xu Ming's thought of bathing in it disappeared again.

"Commander-in-chief, it seems to be Deputy Commander Zhang over there." Several soldiers who were in the vanguard of the search came to report.

"Deputy Commander Zhang?" Xu Ming was still groggy and didn't react for a while, but he immediately realized who was coming.

Xu Ming and Zhang Fakui looked at each other and smiled, Xu Ming went to Mahuiling to meet Zhang Fakui, Zhang Fakui came to Jiujiang to visit Xu Ming, and the two thought of a piece.

Zhang Fakui and Xu Ming got off their horses together, gave the horses to their respective retinues, and the two walked into a hillside.

The shade of the trees shaded the sun, the breeze blew slowly, and General Zhang Fakui's hat hung on the branches, enjoying this rare mountain scenery.

"Qianli, ten days ago, you and I also passed through here, at that time we fled in a hurry, but I didn't expect that half a month later, the old hen turned into a duck, and we became the winners, these are your credits."

This is the first time Zhang Fakui has praised Xu Ming, Zhang Fakui is arrogant and not a flatterer, not to mention his identity and qualifications, he doesn't need to please Xu Ming.

Xu Ming was very moved, "These are all flukes, I know that there is no enemy stationed in Jiujiang, in fact, this time I am taking an adventure, I originally thought... If it weren't for Deputy Commander Zhang, you personally led the 4th Army to come this time, I would have been lucky to be defeated and flee like last time, maybe like that Lin Yiqing, I was captured by the enemy, bringing great passivity to my country. ”

Xu Ming talked about the battle in front of and behind the scenes, and he did not shy away from all kinds of luck and mistakes, Zhang Fakui secretly sighed that this guy was simply a lucky star, Xu Ming said that he used the Japanese plane captured in Wuhu to pretend to be the enemy to airdrop poisoned instant noodles to the Botian detachment, Zhang Fakui heard it and laughed.

"Chisa, you can do this, Hakuda Shigeichi doesn't even know if he's dead, he's so defeated, hey, Chiri, it's really yours."

"Haha, when I was a child, I ate in the canteen, and the green beans in it were not cooked, and as a result, the entire canteen diners were collectively poisoned, and hundreds of people were sent to the hospital at once. I thought, if instant noodles were added with some industrial nitrates, how spectacular it would be for little Japan to eat them. ”

The two talked about a relaxed topic for a while, and Zhang Fakui asked, "Qianli, how do you plan to fight in the next stage of the battle?" ”

Xu Ming thought for a moment and sighed, "I haven't thought about it yet." ”

"Everything is foreseen, and if you don't prepare, you will be wasted, thousands of miles, the next time the Japanese army comes, it will be very fierce, you have to prepare well."

"Yes, I want to fight in Jiujiang, put a unit in Jiujiang City, Miaozhi Town focuses on defense, and put another strong force in the area of Mopan Mountain, the three locations rely on each other, with Ruichang as a supply, and get in touch with Jiangbei at any time."

Zhang Fakui, as a generation of famous generals, can naturally see the characteristics of Xu Ming's formation, which is very aggressive. These three places form a triangle, and it seems that Xu Ming does not belong to the style of holding a position, but mobile defense and attacking at any time.

However, this echoes Zhang Fakui's character, Zhang Fakui himself is a general who is good at offense but not good at defense, and after research in later generations, his offense is stronger than defense by more than one grade. He thought for a moment and said, "Qianli, I don't think there's any problem with the position being set up like this, and the fortifications must be built." ”

Xu Ming smiled bitterly, "Brother Xianghua, this is what I didn't think about, there is trouble in the construction of the fortifications." ”

"Oh, there's not enough manpower? Or is there not enough material? ”

"Ahem, Brother Xiang Hua, that's the case, when my troops were engaged in defensive warfare, the number of fortifications arranged was more than ten times that of other friendly troops, and there was no problem with the materials, and the missing things could be replaced, but there were not enough manpower."

Zhang Fakui frowned, "Yes, this is a big problem, soldiers must not be able to work on this hot day, otherwise, how will they fight in the future." It is estimated that the common people have run out, and some time ago, the Hunan troops were the same as the robbers, and it is estimated that the common people do not support us, and they are definitely not willing to work for us. ”

However, Zhang Fakui is well-informed after all, and after thinking about it for a while, he really came up with a poisonous plan.

When Xu Ming heard this, he was shocked and said, "Brother Xianghua, this matter has been leaked out, and it will be recorded in the history books." ”

Zhang Fakui sneered, with a fierce expression on his face, "History books will only record the victors, and besides, this matter must not be leaked out!" With that, he made a head-killing motion
