Section 7 Falling short

On the night of the 25th, Wang Yaowu came to Dacheng in person, and Zhou Zhidao, Shishi, Zhang Handuo and others who received the news came out to greet him, and even Yu Chengwan brought Zhou Yizhong and other officers of the 339th Regiment to greet him. Wang Yaowu is not only the commander of the 51st Division, as early as December last year, he had been promoted to the deputy commander of the 74th Army and concurrently served as the commander of the 51st Division. Not to mention, Wang Yaowu himself is a fierce general who has been charging forward since the Battle of Songhu, and as a hero who has been fighting the war and killing the enemy and rushing to the front line, it is enough to be admired.

At this time, Wang Yaowu no longer had his usual momentum, because of injuries, he was carried off the car by several guards, seeing that the division commander was suffering from illness and still had to come to the front line to command the battle, everyone couldn't help but be in awe, standing straight one by one, obeying Zhou Zhidao's command and saluting at the same time.

Wang Yaowu's gaze fell on the stone first, he smiled hard, waved his hand at the stone, and said in a rather weak voice: "Little stone, this battle is good, the 302nd Regiment is very good." ”

Hearing that the always serious division commander actually spoke so kindly to the stone, everyone on the side was surprised, and the eyes that looked at the stone were also full of jealousy. But when their gaze swept to the burly officers beside the stone, their eyes couldn't help but converge again, and they couldn't help but think of the strength of the 302nd Regiment, and no one wanted to offend such an army.

Shi Shi was also greatly moved at this time, he walked quickly to Wang Yaowu's stretcher, saluted and said: "They are all strategizing at the peak, the division and brigade are well commanded, and the subordinates and the brothers in the regiment just did what they should do, and they dare not be praised as the teacher." ”

Seeing that the stone was not arrogant or impatient, Wang Yaowu couldn't help but feel very relieved and said: "Yes, yes, you are becoming more and more like a regiment commander, this time you can fight such a beautiful battle here in Dacheng, and all the officers and commanders of the military department are also quite happy, and when this battle is over, I will be the first to ask for credit for your regiment." ”

Everyone was amazed again, only Zhou Zhidao had heard Wang Yaowu's words before, but he was not too surprised. At this time, he stepped forward and said: "Shizuo, you are not in good health, it is better to go to the headquarters to rest first, the current situation in the big city is grim, and the devils may launch a counterattack at any time, it is better to be cautious." ”

Wang Yaowu nodded, and then said to Yu Chengwan, who was standing with a smile on the side: "Brother Jianshi, this time I have the help of the Lao Gui Department, otherwise with the strength of the 302nd Regiment to defend the city, I am afraid it will be difficult to hold out until my main army breaks through the enemy's defense line and keeps the fruits of victory." ”

Yu Chengwan actually felt quite bad at this time, he was two years older than Wang Yaowu, and he was a graduate of the first phase of Huangpu, but compared to the third primary school brother Wang Yaowu, although he felt that he was not weaker than him in terms of qualifications and ability, but he had gradually distanced himself from him. Now hearing Wang Yaowu say this, he was even more ashamed in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "Deputy military seat, it is really an honor to be able to fight side by side with the head of the stone regiment this time. ”

Wang Yaowu glanced at Yu Chengwan in some surprise, and then put his eyes on the stone's body, and did not speak for a while, as if he was slightly thoughtful. This senior, who has been engaged in political work, has always been quite proud, and if he can make such an evaluation, it is obvious that the performance of the stone in the big city has definitely left a deep impression on him.

However, this is not the time to discuss these things, he said politely: "Brother Jianshi, you and I are still brothers, so as not to be born." After hearing this, Yu Chengwan shook his head and did not speak, and for a while it was impossible to guess what he was thinking.

Back in Dacheng, Yu Chengwan's original command headquarters was naturally given to Wang Yaowu, because he had already seen the salute before, so he sent the other officers back to their posts to strictly prevent harassment by the Japanese army, leaving only the chief officer to continue to discuss the battle situation. After everyone left, the headquarters suddenly became empty, but the generals in the collars were shining brightly, which was very eye-catching.

At this time, Wang Yaowu's face was serious when he was lying there, not like before with a smile that gave people a feeling like a spring breeze, now his face was a little pale, his expression was grim, not angry and self-assured, and his strong contrast made everyone sit on the side and dare not make a sound, even Zhou Zhidao was honestly sitting upright, not daring to have the slightest casualness. In this case, the only one who could speak was Yu Chengwan, he looked at Wang Yaowu, then at the people on the side, and then frowned and asked, "Deputy military seat, is there something wrong with the battle in Chazi Mountain?" ”

Wang Yaowu didn't pursue Yu Chengwan's title, and when he heard this, he just nodded heavily. It's just that with his slight movement, the other people in the command all showed incredible looks, especially Zhou Zhidao and Zhang Handuo, when they broke through Chazi Mountain all the way, but I heard that they were about to completely annihilate the remnants of the Japanese army, why did they suddenly change? Their eyes couldn't help but focus on the division commander's body, wanting to get an answer from him.

Wang Yaowu coughed a few times involuntarily, and his pale face finally turned a little bloody, but it looked a little unpleasant in the dim light, which also made them unbearable. Zhou Zhidao couldn't help but say with concern: "Master, you better take a rest first, and I'll talk about it tomorrow if there is anything." ”

Wang Yaowu shook his hand, he didn't seem to care about his body, he groaned for a while, and sighed: "It's a failure, the devils in the encirclement let them escape." ”

Everyone in the command headquarters was dumbfounded, they couldn't believe what the division commander said, and at the same time, there was chaos in their heads, weren't the devils already besieged? How did they get away? In the case of losing the line of defense, the devil has no life at all?

Yu Chengwan's face changed and asked: "Deputy military seat, our 57th Division did not hold the position and was broken through by the devils?" ”

Wang Yaowu looked at his anxious expression and couldn't help but shake his head and said: "It's not the 57th Division's business, this battle is thanks to the brave fighting of the 57th Division's brothers, who broke through the Japanese artillery position from the flank, forced their artillery to transfer their positions, and found an opportunity to break the formation on the frontal battlefield." And then when the devils broke through, it was the 57th Division that chased and fought fiercely to cause fatal damage to the devils, even if they did not completely annihilate this enemy army, it also gave them great damage. It was the friendly forces on the left flank that cowered and caused us to lose an excellent opportunity to annihilate the enemy. ”

"Division, is it the 49th Army?" Zhou Zhidao asked cautiously on the side.

Wang Yaowu was obviously quite angry this time, and snorted coldly and said, "Who else is it not them?" After the collapse of the devil's position, the direction of the breakthrough was unexpectedly placed in the direction of Fengxin, which was the most ideal opportunity for us to destroy the enemy. The units of the 57th Division had already cleared out the enemy from Gao'an to Fengxin a few days ago, and in the case of the devils being defeated and fleeing, they could not penetrate their defensive line at all, and the annihilation of the whole army was a sure thing. However, in order to prevent the devils from Fengxin from coming to respond, we still informed the 49th Army on the periphery of Fengxin in advance of the military situation here, and asked them to contain the enemy's 106th Division on their behalf, so that after completely annihilating the devils here, we will work with them to encircle and annihilate the Japanese army in Fengxin, if we can surround the 106th Division of the devils like Wanjialing, this time the army has suffered a lot of losses, this time it is enough to eat them, so that Nanchang will be at your fingertips. ”

When Yu Chengwan heard that it was Fengxin's devil again, he couldn't help gritting his teeth and asked, "Deputy military seat, is it the 49th Army that hasn't dragged the devil?" ”

"Drag? Brother Jianshi, you look up to them too much, the news from the 49th Army, they were attacked by devils, the whole army lost nearly 10,000 people, and now they have withdrawn to Huibu and other places forty miles away, and then the devils went south to Gao'an, and the 57th Division attacked the enemy troops withdrawn from Chazi Mountain under the condition of being attacked by the enemy on the belly and back, although most of the enemy was annihilated, but it was also attacked by the 106th Division from behind, and the losses were not small, and what was even more infuriating was that the devils who were surrounded by Chazi Mountain escaped partially, and the most important thing was that their artillery was withdrawn, After they get the ammunition supply of the 106th Division, I'm afraid our trouble will come. ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned, they didn't expect that just when the battle was about to be won, there would be such a change, pay such a big price, kill so many brothers, and fight to the end, and let the devil escape, which is too much!

Yu Chengwan also scolded angrily: "There are so many troops in the 9th Theater, why do you want to let the 49th Army be responsible for the offensive on the left flank, what do the upper peaks want to do?" A rare opportunity to kill the enemy, it is because of their selfish desires, because of the stupidity of these people and buried, so many brothers of our 74th Army are here to fight to the death, the result is good, from beginning to end, not only did we not get reinforcements and help from friendly troops, but we were pulling our hind legs, how can this kind of battle be fought? How can this kind of battle be won? Most of China has already fallen, and they are still busy with these bullshit things, do they have to wait until the country dies before they can stop? ”

If the previous news of Wang Yaowu only shocked them, Deputy Division Commander Yu Chengwan's sudden anger made them tremble in their hearts, such disrespectful words, especially at their level, they are extremely sensitive, and Yu Chengwan, as the deputy division commander, is so unscrupulous?
