The Japanese offensive had come to an end, and a bloody battle caused by a reconnaissance team had inflicted heavy losses on both sides. The three troops on both sides of the Nu River licked their wounds and did not dare to make any other moves for the time being. This caused a brief calm on both sides of the strait, which had been under heavy artillery fire.

The veterinarian and medical company stayed in the Yushi Field Hospital, because most of the wounded of the Sichuan Army were here, and it was convenient for the medical company to stay and take care of them. After all, the place here is spacious and the environment is relatively clean, which is more helpful for the recovery of the wounded.

Xing Fuquan's second battalion was arranged in Zhongba Beach, the third regiment of Yu's division was basically exhausted, and Yu Xiaoqing had no ability to defend upstream. If the troops were to be divided, the defensive forces of the waterline would be dwarfed again. At this point, the Sichuan Army was stationed in the garrison, which was exactly what he wanted.

But Liao Mingyu didn't help in vain. It's okay to help you garrison, but you have to provide some ammunition, right? After all, you are considered rich, and you have to pay some wages to help you do part-time work, right?

After this battle, the ammunition of the entire Sichuan Army was consumed, and Zhao Gongming's supplies had not been delivered, and the system had been upgraded in the past two days and could not be contacted. Speaking of which, the Sichuan Army has now reached a very critical moment.

Ammunition, ammunition, without bullets, the gun becomes a burning stick. If the Japanese attack again, will they have to hold bayonets again? So the next day, Liao Mingyu brought someone over to settle accounts with Yu Xiaoqing.

"As far as the current situation is concerned, it is not impossible for the Japanese army to attack again. If you think about it, Commander Yu, Zhongba Beach has become a key point, like a hole in the entire Nu River defense line. ”

Liao Mingyu stood inside the headquarters of the Yu Division, pointing to a map and talking endlessly. And Yu Xiaoqing's cloudy face in front of him seemed to be dripping with water.

"It's okay to help you defend, but our army's ammunition consumption is really serious. I don't care about the shells anymore, you have to arrange 300,000 rounds of 79 bullets for me, and 5,000 grenades. By the way, there are at least 20 heavy machine guns, our heavy machine guns were blown up a lot in yesterday's battle, and you have to send someone to arrange the cover of the two wings. ”

After finishing the bullets, you need a machine gun, and after you want a machine gun, you need to protect the flanks, which directly blackened Yu Xiaoqing's face. He finally couldn't help it: "Why didn't Captain Liao grab it?" You go and see how many heavy machine guns I have in one division. There weren't so many bullets, and my own troops had to use them. ”

"Then there's no need to discuss, you can do it yourself. I'm not a saint, so I'll think twice for you. Liao Mingyu directly picked a son, and casually recruited a communication soldier:

"Contact the second battalion commander, and immediately withdraw from the Zhongba Beach position and return to the Sacrifice Flag Slope!"

"Oh, head Liao, don't be in a hurry, if it's easy to discuss, let's talk slowly."

The peacemaker Tang Ji hurriedly stepped forward to reassure him, and then turned his head and glared at Yu Xiaoqing, signaling him to focus on the overall situation.

Yu Xiaoqing was holding back the fire, if he hadn't been able to rely on the Sichuan Army to help garrison now, he really didn't want to deal with this cheeky guy. Yesterday, I saw the national righteousness on his face, but today's behavior is like a small citizen.

Liao Mingyu didn't think much about it, yesterday it was called an emergency, and he had to suffer if his lips were dead and his teeth were cold. After that, it's a long-term cooperation, if you don't set up the rules first, will you suffer yourself?

"The amount that Captain Liao said is too big for Yu to do. Slightly... Less. Yu Xiaoqing sighed and said helplessly.

"At least 300,000 rounds of ammunition, 800 rifles, 20 light machine guns, 10 heavy machine guns, and grenades. Don't forget that I haven't bothered with you about the batch of medicines in the hospital, if it weren't for my Sichuan Legion, half of your hundreds of wounded would not have died? Liao Mingyu continued to open his mouth, anyway, it's all for nothing, don't be in vain.

"Captain Liao, this is a little difficult for us."

……

The two waves of people have been pinching back and forth for a long time and still haven't been able to reach a consensus, seeing that they have almost touched Yu Xiaoqing's bottom line, Liao Mingyu put his idea on the hospital again.

I heard Chen Jize say that the bearded regiment commander of the Third Regiment of the Yu Division was from the 29th Army, and he fought quite fiercely. Now he is seriously injured and lying in a hospital bed. For this officer, he had some intentions, and while bargaining, he also piggybacked.

Fan Xiangwu was not originally from his lineage, he was an officer arranged by Shangfeng, and now the third regiment has existed in name only, and even if it is reorganized in the future, he will not be used again. For the sake of that batch of medicines, Yu Xiaoqing simply packed it to Liao Mingyu together with the only dozens of people in the three regiments.

In the end, Yu Xiaoqing promised to give 200,000 rounds of ammunition and 10,000 yuan to replenish military funds. Not a single gun was given, and he had to keep it to rebuild the 3rd regiment. 3,000 grenades were given. plus Fan Xiangwu, the commander of the third regiment, and the remaining 30 or so men of the Northwest Army in his guard company. The others refused to let go.

These materials Liao Mingyu can also be accepted, he can't look down on guns, anyway, when Zhao Gongming comes over next, the remaining two battalions of the Sichuan Army should also be reequipped, mainly because of the lack of bullets, with these 200,000 bullets, it can be supported for a period of time.

In the end, Liao Mingyu took the soldiers of the Sichuan Army back to the Sacrifice Banner Slope, and he had a lot to do. As a result of this battle, there was also a vacancy in the establishment of the Sichuan Army, and many affairs had to be rearranged.

The biggest casualties were Chen Jize's three battalions. The three battalions were the poorly equipped, and the bayonets and the Japanese artillery bombardment caused the troops to be severely reduced, and only one-third of the more than 1,200 men who finally withdrew from the battlefield were left, almost crippled the establishment. The guard battalion and the second battalion also suffered some casualties, and the situation of the first battalion was relatively good. The entire Sichuan Army suffered a total of about 1,100 casualties.

Compared with the situation of the Yu division, the situation was even more tragic, the three regiments were directly defeated, and the other two main regiments also suffered a lot of losses. More than 2,000 people were lost.

Ayi's fourth battalion transferred 400 recruits as a supplement to the third battalion, and then transferred 200 veterans from the first battalion and the second battalion to the third battalion. The remaining 300 recruits of the fourth battalion were supplemented by the first and second battalions that had vacancies. Such an arrangement can ensure that the combat effectiveness of the troops is balanced to the greatest extent.

By the time the hundreds of wounded in the hospital have recovered and returned to the team, the establishment of the three main battalions of the Sichuan Army Corps will also be restored to its integrity. However, it was bitter for Ah Yi, and the battalion commander became the commander of the light pole before he became a commander for two days.

In the next few days, the three parties did not make much movement, especially the Japanese troops on the west bank, who honestly shrank on the Nantianmen and continued to be their pangolins.

No one got a good job in this battle. Nearly 3,000 casualties and more than a dozen field guns were destroyed, and morale also plummeted, and the huge losses made Takeuchi Renshan almost crazy.

Impulsiveness is the devil, and Takeuchi is also a sane person, and he knows that the more times like this, the more important it is to stay calm. This risky attack had already said it all, and the Chinese people on the other side were far stronger than he had imagined.

Taking advantage of this period of calm, he asked his troops to act according to the original plan, and continued to hollow out the mountain of Nantianmen, so that his fortress and underground communication roads were connected.

The loss of artillery positions gave him a wake-up call. He now hated the small army of the Huaxia people, and then sent many patrols to roam around the Nantianmen day and night. They even carried out a large-scale sweep of several small towns west of Nantianmen, and the people living here were persecuted by them miserably.
