Chapter 294: Myth Busted (13)
@@@@@
In the Nanjing mansion, Cai Gongshi was packing up his papers, and since Yang Qiu had decided to go to the north in person, he, the secretary general, had to be fully prepared. In addition to the books and documents he usually needs to read, there are also some personal belongings, which he needs to worry about.
Speaking from the heart, he is as worried about this battle as everyone else, although he has seen the combat capabilities of many troops since he served as Secretary General Yang Qiu, and has seen equipment that he never dared to think of in the first half of his life, but not every unit of the National Defense Force is elite, in addition to the five divisions and three independent brigades that followed Yang Qiu in the early years, only four central guard divisions can fight with the Japanese army, but this time it is impossible to transfer the elite to the past, the 104th Division has determined that it will not leave Nanjing stationed in Nanjing, and the 3rd Division needs to assist in the defense of the southeast and Shanghai, The 5th Division was deployed far away in Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi, so only six main divisions could be invested. Fortunately, Song Ziqing was afraid of an accident and temporarily transferred back the Sixth Brigade stationed in Xikang for a long time, but this move was also more risky, after all, Britain and Japan were allies, and if Tibet, which had been unstable after the deterrence of the Sixth Brigade, had to rely on the 8th Brigade and the National Guard stationed in Sichuan.
Except for six divisions and an independent brigade, the rest of the troops invested are overwhelmed by their heart, even if Song Ziqing, Cai Yi and others continue to strengthen troop training, but whether it can be used is only known to God.
After packing up and looking at the watch, Cai Gongshi wanted to go upstairs to inform the time but stopped, usually busy with work, it is rare for the young couple to be together, and I don't know how long it will take to go out this time, so I just wanted to call the train station and wait for a while, I saw Rui Yao rushing in, with a anxious face: "Mr. Cai, Brother Yang, he ()." ”
Cai Gongshi has seen Rui Yao many times, and he also knows that Yang Qiu and her partner in starting a shipping company, and even more knows that there is a trace of affection between the two, Commander Yang has outstanding knowledge in the army and good performance in politics, but he seems to be very unable to let go of the issue of men and women, so he made the girl wait for several years. I smiled secretly in my heart and wanted to take the opportunity to match, so I simply pointed upstairs: "It's up there." Rui Yao was so anxious about Yang Qiu that she forgot to ask Miao Luo if she was not there, so she ran upstairs, causing Cai Gongshi behind her to laugh secretly.
In the bedroom, Miao Luo's eyes were slightly red and he grabbed Yang Qiu's arm, he used to go out to do errands, but this time he was going to the front line in person, the gun was not long, and if there was any problem, she was confused, and she hated to leave him behind, but when it came to her mouth, she couldn't say it, and her thoughts finally turned into one sentence: "Be careful." ”
Yang Qiu felt very sorry for Miao Luo, and after marrying herself, she had been gathering less and scattering more, it was really not a good choice for a woman to marry someone like him. gently pinched her white cheeks, smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, more than a dozen divisions and hundreds of thousands of soldiers can't keep me alone, so it's really better to take you to the United States to be a fool." ”
Miao Luo sniffed and groaned softly: "Chenhua, or I'll send a telegram to call my eldest brother back." ”
"Big brother is doing a good job in Guangxi now, but sending a telegram makes him worry, and besides, there is still Lei Meng on my side." As soon as Yang Qiu finished speaking, Rui Yao rushed in from outside and said nervously, "Is that elm pimple capable of doing it?" Why don't I go with you? ”
"Senior sister." Miao Luo, who was still worried just now, saw her and threw herself into her arms and twitched as if she had seen a relative, and after seeing this, Rui Yao became even more nervous, and lifted her coat to reveal the strength inside: "I am also the leader of a gang, and ordinary four or five strong men can't get close, so let me go to my junior sister can rest assured." ”
In fact, Yang Qiu also knew that Rui Yao was interesting to him, so in the past few years, his sister-in-law has been alone and has come to live at home from time to time for a few days, but he always has a pimple in his heart, afraid that if the matter of his concubine spreads, it will affect other people's views of the national society. ”
"You." Rui Yao was taken aback by his sudden move, and before she could react, her body was surrounded, but unfortunately the time was too short and she didn't even taste any taste, so Yang Qiu let go of her hand. But this action still made her pretty face crimson, and she glared at Yang Qiu fiercely, which didn't look like anger, but like saying that your wife was still on the side.
Miao Luo, who had just left Rui Yao's arms, was also slightly stunned, and he didn't know what to think of, biting his lip and not speaking. When the two girls were thinking about each other, Yang Qiu had already looked at his watch and grabbed his bag: "When the time comes, take care of yourself, I will be fine." ”
The two girls were still not worried about Yang Qiu, and held each other to send him downstairs, but as soon as they walked downstairs, Song Ziqing hurriedly rushed in, and almost bumped into the guard carrying the suitcase. Thinking of the core battles in the past few days, I couldn't help but blurt out: "Is it Ferris Ridge?" ”
"Yes!"
Song Ziqing saluted Yang Qiu excitedly, handed him the telegram and said, "Zi'an (Yue Pengzi)'s telegram." At about 5 o'clock yesterday morning, the 1st Brigade, the 38th Brigade and the 41st Brigade launched a general attack on the remnants of the Araki Wing at the same time, and it was a total of 29 hours until 10 o'clock in the morning. Sadao Araki committed suicide by stripping his belly, and the flag of the wing was burned but the flagpole and tassel belt had been found, and the pilot was transporting it back to Beijing. ”
"Great!"
Before Yang Qiu could finish reading the battle report, the guards next to him all jumped up, even the steady Cai Gongshi shook his fist fiercely, and the two women behind him were also beautiful and snuggled up to each other and smiled sweetly, and even the worries in their hearts were reduced a lot.
Song Ziqing took everyone's performance into his eyes, and he couldn't say how happy he was in his heart, because this is the goal he wanted to achieve in this battle, in addition to taking advantage of the opportunity of Japan's early light enemy to knock off the strikers and rub their morale, this is also a rare opportunity to boost the morale of the people, the flag of the wing is burned, which means that from now on, the 16th Division and 38th Wing that are rampant south of Mukden and northeast of Korea are completely gone!
But the cost of this battle is also very high, not to mention that in order to annihilate the Araki Wing, 48 heavy guns, 2 armored battalions, and a total of 4 brigades were mobilized, with a total of 24,000 troops, 80,000 rounds of ammunition of various types, and nearly 4,000 soldiers spilled their blood on the battlefield, especially the elite 2nd Brigade was basically paralyzed, and it was impossible to recover in less than half a year.
The price is expensive, although it seems that the road is smooth, but Yang Qiu can see a lot of problems, the 2nd Brigade is already one of the most elite forces in his hands, and the individual firepower is even more armed to the teeth, and there are such heavy casualties that he has to praise the Japanese army in his heart, and this is still in the field environment where the Araki Wing is unclear and despises the pride and is alone.
But the sacrifice is worth it, anyway! The complete annihilation of a large wing of the elite Japanese army proves that they can also be defeated! It also proves that the gap between the Wehrmacht and the Japanese army is not out of reach, and the 16th Division has only half of its strength left! As long as this news comes out, the morale of the second-line troops will definitely rise, and the whole country will be able to gain a lot of confidence in winning the war!
"Electrify the whole country! No matter what method is used, the fragments of the captured wing flag must be reported tomorrow morning! When Yang Qiu handed the telegram to Cai Gong, he glanced back and saw the two women walking quickly into the car.
Soon after the special train sailed out of the Pukou wharf, the news of the battle of Ferris Ridge finally began to spread after several days of cover-up, and the first to get accurate information was the German and American countries, because observers from both countries had witnessed the battle with their own eyes and were very interested in the new artillery and light machine guns that the Wehrmacht had brought out.
"What!"
"What!"
"Is this true?"
Exclamations spread rapidly from the German-American legations, followed by cheers or silence, and in the Far East such explosive news could not be concealed at all, the difference was only a few days earlier and a few days later.
The United States, which was not very interested in the war, saw the possibility of using the hand of China to contain the increasingly restless Japan, while Hungerl and Prince Reinhardt were a little short of breath at the telegram sent back by the observers, and they did not think that the Wehrmacht could defeat Japan, at most it was just a draw, so the idea of the two and even the whole of Germany was to provide support, and then to disrupt the Far East and force Britain, France, and Russia to divert some of their energies here, but now they have some ideas ().
Judging from the information sent back by several observers, the number of equipment of the Wehrmacht such as armored vehicles and heavy artillery is still very small, and if Germany can make up for this shortcoming, does it mean that it can completely change the division of power among the countries of the Far East?!
When the two of them were thinking about how to report back to the country, Russia, which was close at hand and was most concerned about the war, was even more surprised and crazy, and the white-haired general's mansion was filled with roars all day long: "Quick, send a telegram back to China and send it directly to Her Royal Highness the Empress!" This is a good opportunity for us to reclaim Sakhalin! No, this is a good opportunity to march into North Korea! ”
It's messy, it's messed up the whole Far East!
The result of the battle of Ferris Ridge was like someone smashing open a pressure cooker that had been boiling for a long time, and the scorching steam suddenly spewed out, and when the British and French legations told the news to the Japanese Temporary Minister to China, Matsudaira Tsuneo, he even felt that it was enemy propaganda, and his face gradually became solemn until more and more news was confirmed.
When there was a discussion in Japan that it would only take three months to completely defeat China and annex Manchu and Mongolia and establish a supreme feat, when the aftermath of the cheering war was still lingering in the sky, a loud slap suddenly struck!
The next morning, a photograph appeared in every newspaper across the country of a somewhat charred flagpole and tassel, with rows of eye-catching headlines underneath the photograph.
"Northeast Victory! 》
"The rampant day of Fengtian, the 38th Wing of the Kou is completely destroyed! 》
"Witness to the destruction of the myth of invincibility! 》
Pull out the flag! 》
