Section 9 Busy and leisurely
In the early morning of the 26th, it was rare that Ayutthaya did not usher in the bombing of Japanese planes, and the Japanese army's two offensives in the morning and evening were as punctual as roosters crowing, and in vain they did not hear the roar of the motor in the air, many people were a little uncomfortable, and many veterans of the 302nd Regiment kept looking at the sky quite strangely, as if wondering if it was dawning earlier than usual today.
Stone is a rare good night's sleep! It's been five days, and he hasn't closed his eyes for five days and five nights in a row, and the feeling of exhaustion invading his brain makes him feel that his every move is a lot slower, and it is rare to withdraw the first line, although he is still in the area of Ayutthaya, but he does not have to face the enemy's attack, and this alone is enough to make them feel very relaxed. This is what they are veterans of a hundred battles, and if they are not experienced sergeants, this kind of tense atmosphere before the battle alone is enough to make them excited and difficult to be, not to mention sleeping with their heads covered, even their breathing may be difficult to calm down in a short time.
Wang Yaowu did not return to Gao'an, but stayed in Dacheng, although his health is not very good, and his movement is not convenient, but his existence is like a reassurance pill for everyone on the front line, which makes people high-spirited, especially the officers and soldiers of the 301st Regiment, although their military appearance is neat and the training is orderly, but after all, there are too few bloody battles fought.
Lin Xiufeng, attached to the regiment, was in good spirits, and he went to inspect the battalions and companies early in the morning; as the deputy regiment commander, it was his job to comfort the wounded and take care of the officers and men in the regiment, and in this regard, he did quite well. And Wu Zihuai brought him news of Gao'an after the stone woke up.
Although the Japanese army in the encirclement was not completely annihilated because of the rescue of the Japanese army in Fengxin, the battle of Gao'an was still a rare victory, and Gao'an, which was heavily defended by a brigade of the Japanese army, was conquered in a very short period of time, not to mention, the Japanese troops stationed here were almost completely annihilated, plus the 302nd Regiment fought several beautiful battles in Dacheng and Xiangfuguan, the Japanese army lost four or five thousand people in just a few days, and this huge number of kills alone was already a great victory. Not to mention that he also captured Gao'an, Xiangfuguan, Dacheng and other places in the hands of devils, and this situation is still very rare in the bloody battle with the enemy for more than a year.
The sporadic fighting continued until late at night, but fortunately, before dawn, the surrounding enemies had been completely cleared, especially in the mountainous area between Gao'an and Fengxin, and after a bloody tug-of-war, the defense line was also stabilized, which was an acceptable situation for both sides. Although the 106th Division of the Japanese Army in Fengxin was still under heavy siege, they had widened their defensive line to the south and expanded their living space, and the enemy troops in the west had been crippled and could not pose much of a threat to them. In this way, they can concentrate on attacking the big city, and as long as the gap is opened and the traffic is restored, they will have no worries. As for the 74th Army, they have occupied Gao'an, Chazishan and others, and have the depth on the flank battlefield, as long as the 57th Division can withstand it, Gao'an will be as stable as Mount Tai, as for Dacheng, although there will definitely be a vicious battle to fight next, but compared to the previous anxiety of never being able to take Chazishan, the current situation is undoubtedly much better, at least their combat mission this time has been basically completed.
After saying this, Wu Zihuai said again: "The 339th Regiment has withdrawn to Gao'an, and Deputy Division Yu specially sent someone to send a message, so that the regiment does not need to worry. I heard that the 339th Regiment will retreat all the way to the front line of the Sinophtha to rest and recuperate because of its heavy losses, and Deputy Division Yu will report back to the 57th Division and continue to command the troops to defend the flank of the army. Immediately, he was a little dissatisfied and said: "Tuanzao, you are too good at talking, the 339 regiment has suffered heavy losses, and the losses of our regiment are not small!" Besides, we have fought a few battles along the way, and they have only fought a few battles, and if they really want to withdraw, it should be our regiment that withdraws first! ”
Shi stretched his waist, the sweetness of this sleep made him feel full of energy all over his body, and when he heard Wu Zihuai say this, he chuckled and said: "I'm afraid that if we are really withdrawn, it will be called the sky again, in terms of enthusiasm for fighting, which regiment can compare with them?" Brother Wu, staying here also has the advantage of staying here, being on the front line, it makes people feel down-to-earth, and if you really want to leave the battlefield, maybe you really don't know what to do. Besides, as Deputy Division Commander Yu, after fighting one battle, the next battle will be followed, and they are still like this, how can we steal our lives? ”
Wu Zihuai immediately said: "You, your head is full of war, you don't think about yourself, you should also think about your younger siblings, right?" Staying on the front line all day long, can my younger siblings not worry? People who have a family are not like they used to be alone. ”
At the mention of Wang Qianqian, Shi couldn't help but move in his heart, and that gentle feeling like water suddenly came to his heart, making him suddenly recover from the endless bloody battle, he immediately nodded and said: "Brother Wu is right, I have been married, and I really can't compare with before, I am also a person with a wife." ”
On the 26th, the whole day seemed very quiet, and the Japanese army in Nanchang did not seem to have recovered from the blow of the loss of Gao'an. And because of the threat of Fengxin's flank, the main force of the 74th Army, which had newly taken the front line of Chazishan and Xiangfuguan, did not dare to act rashly, especially since they were still unclear about the dynamics of the armies of other routes, and did not dare to rashly attack Nanchang at this time, for fear that one would be accidentally exploited by the Japanese army. In this kind of situation where great achievements have been made, it is natural to focus on stability. Therefore, whether it is Gao'an or Dacheng, they have calmed down at the moment, and the soldiers of all departments are carefully repairing the defense line to cope with the possible attack in the future.
However, the 302nd Regiment has completely relaxed today, since crossing the Jinjiang River, today is their most relaxed day, everyone leans on the positions everywhere, cleaning up weapons, counting ammunition, or leisurely smoking, or chatting casually, although they can't walk around as usual, but there is no combat mission, that is the greatest relaxation.
In the afternoon, Chang Xiaode, Tang Shengzhi, Lu Xing and others rushed to Dacheng with the 153 Brigade, their arrival made the Dacheng lively for a while, after paying homage to the division commander, Wang Yaowu naturally gave them a good encouragement, after Zhang Lingfu was injured, the overall situation of the 153 Brigade temporarily relied on them to support. Fortunately, most of them have received military school education, and they are all Wang Yaowu's juniors, and their abilities are also extremely outstanding, although there is no dazzling performance in the recent period, but they are also decent and have not made any mistakes, so that in the case of the 302nd regiment's considerable losses, the strong 153 Brigade is naturally quite valued by Wang Yaowu.
They were accompanied by other people from the headquarters of the 51st Division, and Dacheng directly became the defense area of the 51st Division, and a huge contingent of nearly 10,000 people was stationed at once, although it was not enough for the situation in Nanchang as a whole, but for a small town like Dacheng, it was really a bit excessive.
Because of the arrival of the 153 Brigade, the pressure on the 151 Brigade was also greatly reduced, and the defense area of Dacheng was immediately redivided, and the 151 Brigade was responsible for the position facing the Fengxin front line in the northwest, and the 153 Brigade was responsible for the defense area facing Nanchang and Xishan in the northeast. Naturally, taking into account the performance of the 302nd Regiment in the early stage and the actual situation, they still stayed in the southwest direction to rest. This arrangement naturally made everyone in the 302nd Regiment very satisfied, although it was rare that they did not undertake the main task, and they were somewhat uncomfortable, but it was rare to count on friendly troops, and this feeling was still good.
In the evening, Chang Xiaode took Tang Shenghai, Lu Xing and others to the 302nd regiment position to visit the stone, which surprised the stone who received the news. At this time, at the request of his wife Wang Qianqian, he had already taken a bath, cleaned up well, and changed into a set of clean clothes. From Luodian to Gao'an, when the war started, it was normal not to take a bath for a month, and now he was forced to take a bath, which naturally made the stone feel very uncomfortable, but after changing into a clean military uniform, that feeling of refreshment still made him regret his previous feelings, and it turned out that paying attention to hygiene was quite beneficial.
Seeing the stone soon after the separation, Chang Xiaode and the others were naturally very happy, especially the battle in Dacheng was really beautiful, and it also made Lu Xing pull the stone and ask the east and west, although they have always known that the strength of the stone is not comparable to ordinary people, but no one would have imagined that this small can be so strong, a regiment facing a wing of devils who are more than their number, can still play such a brilliant record, this kid is really not a person!
Chang Xiaode is also quite pleased, the stone can have such a performance, presumably the brigade commander in the hospital is also happy, after all, although the stone is in the 151st brigade, but there is no difference between them, especially the stone has repeatedly stepped forward to help them in times of crisis, just this feeling, let them be very cordial, and the stone and the brigade commander are like brothers, naturally it also shortens the distance between each other.
Speaking of the brigade commander, Shi is also quite concerned, it has been a while since Brigade Commander Zhang was injured, and they have been busy fighting recently, so they didn't think of this at all, and they were a little negligent. However, Chang Xiaode's subsequent words made him happy, Brigade Commander Zhang's leg had been saved, his injuries had been stabilized, and he was sent to Hong Kong for treatment, and it would not be long before he could return to the army.
Shi Daxi, thinking of what happened outside Gao'an City before, he was afraid for a while, if he listened to them and amputated Brother Zhang's leg, wouldn't it really hurt Brother Zhang?
In the evening, everyone stayed at the headquarters of the 302nd regiment to eat, Wang Qianqian was in charge of the spoon herself, and it was rare for everyone to eat this kind of homely wonder in the army, which made them very happy, if it wasn't for the fact that they couldn't drink alcohol in the army, I was afraid that they would not get drunk and not return. It wasn't until the middle of the night that the stone sent everyone away, looking at Wang Qianqian, who was still busy packing up the dishes and chopsticks, the stone felt good to have a home for the first time!
