1616 Not to be sacrificed
After Xiao Yingwu gave the order, he said to Lin Yuan: "Lin Shuai, this time you will definitely be able to bring down the 301 Heights." ”
Lin Yuan said: "It's not enough to just knock it down, what I want is to knock down this high ground without too much cost, and it is best to avoid casualties." ”
Xiao Yingwu said with a smile: "How can it be possible without casualties, although the Japanese army has been in a state of hunger and disease for a long time, but they still have the spirit of playing with their lives, and they will definitely resist stubbornly!" ”
Lin Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, so the battle on the front line is not very easy to fight, I don't know how the casualties are in the road?" After Lin Yuan finished speaking, he looked out the window, and Xiao Yingwu smiled: "Why don't we go to the front line to have a look?" No specific casualties could be seen on the phone. ”
Lin Yuan smiled and said: "I can't go now, I should try to avoid danger, but we can go to the field hospital to have a look, and from there we can also intuitively see the casualties of the troops." ”
Xiao Yingwu said: "It's okay, but it's useless for us to go now, now they have just launched an attack, and there are no wounded yet." ”
Lin Yuan looked at his watch and said, "Okay, let's go back in an hour." An hour later, Lin Yuan took Xiao Yingwu to the hospital, Lin Yuan thought that it would be very deserted, but he didn't expect that there were stretchers everywhere, there were bloody soldiers on each stretcher, and there was a long queue at the entrance of the hospital on the stretcher, and two military doctors checked the situation of the wounded on the single frame at the door, and said to the migrant workers carrying the stretcher from time to time: "This person is not good, send it to the morgue, this person's injury is too serious, we can't treat it, send it to the wounded in transit, prepare to transport it to the rear hospital, this person will send it inside......"
Lin Yuan roughly counted, there were more than a hundred wounded at the door, and there were stretchers sent over in the distance, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "The resistance of the Japanese army should be quite weak, how can it still be like this?" ”
Lin Yuan thought of this and immediately called his entourage and said, "Pick up Lu Xinghua for me." ”
The entourage quickly contacted Lu Xinghua with a communicator, and Lin Yuan said with dissatisfaction in his tone: "How did the battle go?" Why does it hurt so many people? ”
Lu Xinghua asked in surprise: "Lin Shuai, how did you know that there are many wounded in Ludao?" ”
Lin Yuan said: "I'm in the hospital now, can I not know what to do?" ”
Lu Xinghua said: "Lin Shuai, we have already laid the upper tunnel, and now we are attacking the deepest headquarters of the Japanese army. ”
Lin Yuan said: "But you have too many wounded, I never do such a thing as killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, you stop attacking immediately, summarize it well, and see if there is a problem with your tactics." ”
Lu Xinghua said: "Yes! I understand! I'm going to give the order. ”
As soon as Lin Yuan handed over the communicator to the attendant, Xiao Yingwu said on the side: "Lin Shuai, seeing that the high ground is about to be defeated, isn't it a pity that we stop attacking now?" ”
Lin Yuan said: "There's no pity, sooner or later, the high ground of the Japanese army will be beaten down by us, why should we lose so many people?" ”
Xiao Yingwu said in a low voice: "Captain, are you too afraid of casualties, in our era, it is our fine tradition not to be afraid of sacrifice." ”
Lin Yuan said: "Lao Xiao, the situation is different, the era when our army advocates not being afraid of sacrifice is an era when we have nothing but people, and if we want to win in that era, if we want to survive, we have to exchange our lives!" But now it is different, if you look at our weapons and equipment, logistics and supplies, and comprehensive national strength, which one is not stronger than the enemy, under such conditions, there is no need for us to carry forward the spirit of not being afraid of sacrifice. ”
"Lao Xiao, you are the military commander, there are some socio-economic things that you don't know, you see, these wounded are all in their twenties, as soon as they are injured, the state needs to give them a pension, until they die! How many years will this take? The census that has just concluded shows that the average age of death in our country is now 56 years old, and under our governance, this figure can reach 70 years in the next 20 years, that is: every wounded person will have to pay a pension for 50 years! If these wounded are disabled and incapacitated, then the state needs to spend even more! ”
"The reason why I am afraid of casualties is that this is the root cause, it is too expensive! What are we not doing with that money? Another very important point is that there is now a kind of public opinion in China that we in China should live our own lives and not care about other people's affairs, so they oppose us helping the DPRK, and our casualties here are too great, which will undoubtedly bring us unnecessary pressure from public opinion. ”
Xiao Yingwu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll just listen to you." ”
After Lin Yuan finished speaking, he pointed to the hospital with his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go in and have a look." So he led people inside, and came directly to the dean's room, but found that the room was empty, Lin Yuan asked, "Where did the dean go?" ”
A nurse replied, "The dean himself has gone to rescue the wounded." ”
Lin Yuan said in surprise: "The dean personally went to rescue the wounded? So who's in charge? ”
The nurse said, "It's our vice president, and the vice president is not a doctor, so I stayed." ”
Lin Yuan asked, "Then where did he go?" ”
The nurse said, "I don't know. ”
Lin Yuan frowned, turned back to the attendant and said, "Dereliction of duty!" Write down the name of this vice president and deal with it later. ”
The nurse heard Lin Yuan's words and hurriedly said, "Lin Shuai, don't remember, our vice president usually works very seriously, and there must be something important going on at this time, so I'll go and find him for you." ”
Lin Yuan nodded, and after a short time, he saw a middle-aged man in a white coat walking in from the outside behind the nurse, obviously he was the vice president, he was holding a big book in his hand, and when he came in, he said to Lin Yuan: "Lin Shuai, why are you here?" You may be seated. ”
Lin Yuan didn't talk to him politely, and asked directly, "What did you do?" ”
"I've gone to count the injuries of the wounded," said the deputy director. As he spoke, he handed the big book to Lin Yuan and said, "Look, it's all here." ”
When Lin Yuan heard this, he thought to himself: "Statistics on the injuries of the wounded? This thing is so important, and you can see the inadequacy of our tactics from this! This vice president is really serious about his work. So Lin Yuan said, "Then have you counted anything?" ”
"The statistics have come out, and the current number of injured people is 249, most of them are lacerations, that is, they were cut by shrapnel and rubble," the deputy director said. ”
Lin Yuan nodded and said, "There must be the most injuries on the battlefield, what else?" ”
The vice president said: "There are also concussion injuries on the internal organs, that is, the internal organs are injured by the shock wave. ”
Lin Yuan asked curiously, "How could you be injured like this?" ”
