At the headquarters of the Independent Regiment, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were talking with Chu Yunfei about the spirit of the nation and the large-scale battles in the past few years.

Regarding the Battle of Xinkou, Li Yunlong unabashedly despised Yan Xishan, who commanded the battle, saying that his cowhide blew the earth-shattering sound, but the battle was a mess, and he hesitated at all, without the slightest appearance of a soldier who was decisive.

Although the battle was not fought well, Chu Yunfei had to defend it: "Brother Yunlong, that is my old chief, who has accumulated virtue under his mouth. ”

It is always not so glorious to say that your camp has won the battle. Chu Yunfei changed the topic and talked about the Central Army, which also lost the battle.

In the Battle of Nakajo Mountain, the Japanese troops on the periphery of Nakajo Mountain, with the support of the air force, began a full-scale attack from the east, north, and west.

In only three days, it broke through the core positions of the defenders and formed a double encirclement of the two group armies of the Central Army. With their backs to the Yellow River, the Chinese army had no way to retreat, and with the exception of a few that broke through, most of them were scattered, with 35,000 prisoners and 42,000 corpses abandoned.

According to the Chinese side's announcement of 9,900 Japanese soldiers killed and wounded, it is obviously an exaggeration. These three divisions were stationed in North China almost slightly supplemented and used to fight against the base areas behind the enemy, which made the base areas behind the enemy fall into an even more difficult time.

According to the figures released by the Japanese side, only 673 people were killed and 2,292 were wounded, that is a battle loss of 1:26, which is simply a great shame. It is not an exaggeration to say that this is the greatest shame in the history of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.

But it's worse than miserable, and it's worse than that. So everyone talked about the defense of Nanjing, and the three of them had different opinions about this battle, but in essence, they all expressed heartache.

A certain chairman of the committee raised a high profile and vowed to live and die with Nanjing, fighting to the last soldier. But he retreated to a safe place early. Tang Shengzhi, the commander of the Nanjing garrison, commanded more than 100,000 defenders, and the capital of the country was lost after more than ten days of chaotic fighting.

If we say that the defeat in the war can be deduced from the gap in weapons and equipment and the uneven quality of the army's personnel, then how to organize the retreat in an orderly manner after the fall of the city and other aftermath matters are completely a huge dereliction of duty on the part of some people.

In order to cater to the chairman, Tang put forward the slogan of "swear to live and die with the city", stopped the army from retreating to the Yangtze River at Rujiangmen, and confiscated the boats that crossed the river. According to him, this is: to die and to be born. As a result, the "dead land" was formed, and the "afterlife" was in vain.

Some high-ranking officers received orders to retreat and could still use the troops as cannon fodder, but what about the soldiers who were treated as cannon fodder?

Let these soldiers, who are only to be soldiers eat food, and have even been pulled into strong men, listen to the commander say that fighting devils is to dedicate themselves to the country, how high will they be and fight desperately with the enemy?

No, they are not obliged to fight the enemy to the death after the commanders have abandoned them.

As a result, tens of thousands of soldiers who laid down their arms, like lambs to the slaughter, were slaughtered by the little devils in various ways.

And more than 200,000 people who did not have time to evacuate also fell under the six-week massacre of the devils.

More than 300,000 soldiers and civilians fell in the Nanjing Massacre.

Zhao Gang said on the matter: "It is a fact that the national strength is weak and the equipment is inferior. But this is not a reason to shirk, and more importantly, the soldiers who fought the war lacked the courage to break through the cauldron and the momentum of having no enemies and no self.

In the defense of Nanjing, if the periphery could not be defended, it should retreat to the city to fight street battles. Ban fights for himself, people fight for themselves, and turn the city into a fortress. Even if you die in battle, you must inflict heavy losses on the enemy before you die. Make the aggressor pay the price of blood for every step forward. ”

Chu Yunfei also said angrily: "For the defense of Nanjing, brother, I also have some opinions. In a word, heartbreaking. Once tens of thousands of soldiers lost their establishment and the dragons were leaderless, they became a flock of sheep. Lay down their arms and let the enemy slaughter them, what are they holding in their hands!

It's not a burning stick, it's a weapon. Even if there is only one person left, it will have to fight to the death. Brother Zhao is right, the key is not in weapon strategy and tactics, the most important thing is that soldiers must have spirit, and they will continue to fight while breathing. As long as there is this spirit, the Japanese want to enslave China, and he has no door. ”

………………

Two days ago, the commander of the 1st Army in North China, Lieutenant General Yoshio Suzuka, and the special forces under his command received the attention of the Japanese army in North China. The Japanese army has transferred 200 officers at the rank of captain and above from various armies in North China, who were personally led by the brigade commander, General Hattori Naotomi, to come to the First Army to personally observe the tactics of battle.

At the headquarters of the Japanese army in North China, Lieutenant General Yoshio Suzuka looked at the battle plan handed over by Kazuki Yamamoto, and there was infinite surprise in his heart.

He bluntly said, "Is there such a big difference between the two of us?" You can tell us what you think about why you chose the small Huting stronghold. ”

Kazuki Yamamoto: "It's not that other information is worthless, but I'm more interested in the report of Lieutenant Tanaka from the Torouti stronghold. A squad of the Eighth Route Regular Army came to the lieutenant's jurisdiction, and the lieutenant was determined to maintain local order and eliminate this small group of Eighth Routes.

This move itself shows that the lieutenant is actually worried that he will fall into the trap of the Eighth Road, and this logic is very much in line with the usual tactics of the Eighth Road. ”

Yoshio Suzuka was even more surprised: "Yamamoto-kun didn't want to command the Ninth Brigade and use Tanaka's squadron as bait to carry out a counter-ambush." ”

"It's too small, I'm not interested in it at all." Yamamoto said arrogantly.

When he said another piece of information, Yoshio Suzuka suddenly realized.

A Japanese soldier beside Yan Xishan sent back information that more than a dozen senior officers of Yan Xishan had suddenly disappeared recently. It is rumored that at the invitation of the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, he went to Lingyang to engage in exchanges between the two armies.

Kazuki Yamamoto analyzed that provoking a war at such a close distance must have something to do with this exchange. What kind of rank is the Eighth Road, which can be equal to more than a dozen senior officers?

Narrowing down the area based on radio detection, the location of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army becomes obvious.

Kazuki Yamamoto's ambitions are clear.

Yoshio Suzuka was very confident in his beloved general, Kazuki Yamamoto, and he said, "Since I have given Yamamoto-kun full command, I will not ask what the group will see. I hope that you, Daisa Yamamoto, will rewrite the history of our First Army. ”

Kazuki Yamamoto: "Yes, I will do my best, Shogun. ”

………………

Chu Yunfei: "Brother Zhao said it well, the composition of a country's army should be composed of a group of hot-blooded young people. They take it as their duty to defend national sovereignty and national dignity. Those who want to make a fortune by virtue of military career promotion will only disgrace our Chinese soldiers. ”

Li Yunlong said very approvingly: "Hey, to be a soldier, you must have a momentum and a momentum to fight to the end." When he met his opponent in a narrow way, he found that the other party turned out to be the number one swordsman in the world, and at this time, he knew that he was dead, and he had to show his sword.

If you don't have this courage, don't be a swordsman, and you won't be ashamed to fall under the opponent's sword. We Chinese soldiers cannot be a bad seed, and we will show our swords when we meet the enemy, and we are absolutely unambiguous. ”

Chu Yunfei: "Brother Yunlong said it too well, when you meet the enemy, you will show your sword, and blood will be splashed in seven steps, either you will die or I will die." Although the three households of Chu can die in Qin, how can there be no one in China, this is the soul of my Chinese army! ”

Zhang Dabiao had been here for a while, and seeing that they were chatting about the same, he hurriedly took advantage of this time to shout: "Commander! ”

Li Yunlong looked at him as if he wanted to speak and stopped, knowing that there was news about the matter he had instructed, and said generously: "Don't be mysterious, say." ”

Seeing that Zhang Dabiao was still hesitant, he added: "All the important military affairs of our regiment are open to the head of Chu. ”

Zhang Dabiao: "Regiment Leader, according to your order, this morning I sent Yuan Pengfei again with three shifts to Baicun to urge flour, President Bai claimed that the flour had been obtained from elsewhere, but it would not arrive until tomorrow morning."

He told us to go again tomorrow, and asked us to bring more people, saying that it would be better than dozens of bags, for fear that there would be fewer people and we would not be able to carry them. Captain, it seems that the fish really bite. ”

Zhao Gang was more cautious and persuaded: "Lao Li, be vigilant!" Maybe the enemy is trying to catch our fish. ”

Li Yunlong laughed, he didn't take it seriously, he also explained to Chu Yunfei: "Our army has always paid attention to military democracy, you see this nonsense. ”

Chu Yunfei was still confused, what is this, it is fishing and anti-fishing. Li Yunlong also knew his puzzlement, and said, "Brother Yunfei, let's take a look at the map and you'll understand, please!" ”

Zhao Gang didn't follow up, he saw Zhang Dabiao's look at him, and knew that something must have happened again.

"Political commissar, it's a little bit of a trivial matter, Yuan Pengfei, this kid has gone too far, and he scared the chairman of the maintenance committee enough, and took the initiative to contribute 50 silver dollars as military funds.

I think that what the president has looted is the people's fat and people's ointment, and we can be regarded as robbing the rich and helping the poor, and avenging the people. ”

Zhang Dabiao admires him very much for his nimble subordinate, and he is also very protective between his words, and he pushes this responsibility away without leaving the slightest tail.

Zhao Gang took the silver dollar handed by Zhang Dabiao, his face was a little unhappy, "Where is Yuan Pengfei, this kid hiding, bring him to me, I want to listen to him in person." ”

Without waiting for Zhang Dabiao's greeting, Yuan Pengfei, who was hiding in the corner, stood up with a smile, "Political commissar, listen to me explain this matter to you......"

Knowing the specific situation, Zhao Gang didn't hold on to it, but just reprimanded him with a straight face, warning him not to do this in the future, even if it was to deal with these puppet army traitors.

In fact, Zhao Gang also has good intentions, and Yuan Pengfei has no problem with this matter. But this bad head can't be opened, there are one and there are two, if they dare to blackmail the people one day, it will be a big mistake.

And to deal with the puppet army and traitors, it is not a good way to be blindly strong, and it is also easier to disintegrate if you properly apply some gentle policies, so that the power of the devil will be lost.

However, Zhao Gang still had a layer of thought in his heart: This silver dollar came at a really good time, and the independent regiment really needed to buy materials in the base area.

Wang Zheren's law of true fragrance has been fulfilled again.
