Chapter 420: Night Chatter
Qiao Youhua, who was blown by a cool breeze, was in good spirits, and after several hours of intense rescue, Liu Jianhua, who was tenacious, was finally saved a life, although he was still in a coma, but at least his life was saved.
From yesterday in Erdaogouzi to the operation of Liu Jianhua, sweating profusely to the roof of the second floor of the regiment headquarters, Qiao Youhua has almost not closed his eyes for two days and one night.
He sat down cross-legged, silently running the qi in his body, and at the same time entered a very light dormant state, until this cool breeze blew, he slowly opened his eyes.
Finding that the sky was already dark, the night sky was dotted with stars, picturesque, and suddenly smelled a good fragrance, Qiao Youhua felt that there seemed to be a person sitting next to him, to be precise, a woman dressed in white.
Qiao Youhua looked at her familiar makeup, and couldn't help shouting, "Sister Xian'er, why are you here?" Only Lin Xian'er could sit beside him for so long without being noticed by him.
Lin Xian'er opened her beautiful eyes slightly, and said softly: "You won another battle, I'm afraid that the Japanese will come to take revenge on you, so I help you protect the Dharma and let you have a good rest." ”
"Hehe, that's a thank you, I was really tired just now, but now it's much better." Qiao Youhua smiled with some emotion.
"Congratulations, you're going to be famous again." Lin Xian'er said lightly.
"What do you mean by that?" Qiao Youhua asked curiously.
"You've won a big battle, and even Seishiro Itagaki is no match for you this time." Lin Xian'er said.
"How can it be so simple, although this time we have severely damaged a brigade of the Japanese army, but it is far from hurting the bones of the Japanese army who came to encircle and suppress our Luquan anti-Japanese base area, we are still at an absolute disadvantage in terms of troops, and there are still many fierce battles to be fought in the future.
After these few days of fighting, all my previous preparations and all the means have been used, and the Japanese will definitely be more cunning in the future, and Seishiro Itagaki will become more and more difficult to deal with.
As for today's victory, it was even more won by the officers and men under his command who fought for their lives. There's nothing to brag about. Qiao Youhua said.
Lin Xian'er smiled faintly, didn't say it or not, and suddenly got up and said, "Your political commissar has brought you food, I won't disturb you to eat, goodbye." After speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared into the vast night.
Only Qiao Youhua himself could see it, and her figure kept undulating on the roofs of buildings in the county until she disappeared from the end of his sight.
Guo Meng walked up with a bowl of hot noodles, and Qiao Youhua had already stood up at this time.
"Captain, are you there?" Guo Meng is not a martial artist, she can't see at night, the roof is pitch black, and she can't see anything.
Qiao Youhua walked over and responded, "Well, I'm here, and the troops are all back?" "By the time the battle ended, it was almost afternoon, and all the troops, including the militia in the city, had gone out to help clean up the battlefield.
Guo Meng breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "Well, basically they are all back, Zhao Youde, the deputy commander of the third battalion, I arranged for him to return to Dahe Village with people, in case the devils are making ghosts at night, and now the reconnaissance company and the guard company are resting in the city." ”
As he spoke, Guo Meng handed the steaming noodles in the bowl to Qiao Youhua and said, "Yunshan said that you haven't eaten for a day, hurry up and eat it while it's hot." ”
Qiao Youhua was really a little hungry, so he was naturally not polite, and began to eat it in a big gulp, Guo Meng asked cautiously, "Is it delicious?" ”
"Well, it's delicious, the skills of the guys in the cooking class have risen a little recently." Qiao Youhua nodded.
"This is what I made with my own hands...... Guo Meng's cheeks couldn't help but blush.
"Oh! No wonder it's so delicious. Qiao Youhua said warmly in his heart.
"In today's battle, we not only destroyed a lot of enemies, but also captured a lot of them, hundreds of light machine guns, more than 3,000 rifles, more than a dozen heavy machine guns, dozens of mortars, and a large amount of ammunition." Guo Meng was a little embarrassed and hurriedly changed the topic.
"Hmm." For such a result, Qiao Youhua already knew it, nodded his head, and continued to gobble it up.
"By the way, how's Jianhua's situation?" Qiao Youhua said.
"I just went to see it, and the situation is quite stable, and Company Commander Liu is really a tough guy like an iron fighter! If an ordinary person had shed so much blood and suffered such serious injuries, he would have died a long time ago. Guo Meng replied with some emotion.
"This kid is a cat, hard! Hey! When this battle is over, I plan to expand the reconnaissance company to the battalion, and let him be the battalion commander! Qiao Youhua was very happy when he mentioned that his brother was lucky not to die.
"Expansion to the battalion? Reconnaissance troops, is it necessary? After all, we are only a regiment now. Guo Meng was a little puzzled.
"It is still necessary, this reconnaissance battalion is not an ordinary reconnaissance battalion, I want to set up a battalion-level unit composed of a cavalry reconnaissance company, a motorized reconnaissance company and an armored vehicle reconnaissance company." Qiao Youhua said.
"Motorized? Armored vehicles? We don't have any of these things right now! Guo Mengdao.
"Just because you don't have it now doesn't mean you won't have it in the future." Qiao Youhua said: "You have forgotten my cooperation with the British, not to mention anything else, just with the hundreds of millions of silver dollars in our hands now, it is enough to buy the vehicles and fuel needed to form such a battalion-level force." ”
"However, we are in the Japanese war zone, and the Japanese devils will definitely blockade us in the future, and it will be difficult for motorcycles and armored vehicles to be transported into our base areas, right? And the price will certainly not be cheap. Guo Mengdao.
"It is precisely because of this that we must first set up a pilot unit as a model for the development of troops in the base areas in the future, and this is also a way to concentrate the use of financial and material resources to build an elite reconnaissance and combat unit with strong mobile performance.
Lay the foundation for all future mechanization and train personnel and experience. Qiao Youhua briefly said his idea, of course, if you want to develop mechanized troops in an all-round way, you must at least capture a large enough base area near the sea.
However, in order to achieve this goal, it is necessary to first establish our own arsenal and solve the problem of supplying weapons and ammunition, so that it is possible to continuously expand the troops.
However, Qiao Youhua believes that in a few years, he should be able to take the lead in blowing the horn of the counteroffensive, and eventually develop China's mechanized anti-Japanese troops.
After eating the noodles, Qiao Youhua and Guo Meng went down, first looked at Liu Jianhua, who was still in a coma, and then went to the county seat where the wounded and sick were concentrated, visited and comforted other wounded officers and soldiers, and worked until nine o'clock in the evening before dragging his tired body back to the regiment headquarters.
