Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Surprise Commander
The headquarters of the 80th Division was set up in a cave between the mountains, a kerosene lamp, a map, and the map showed the appearance of the whole Xinxingli, and the regiments were distributed.
The commander of the 80th Division had a sad face, a cigarette in his mouth, and he swallowed clouds and smoke. The 29th was definitely the darkest day of his life, the three regiments of the 80th Division, two regiments were beaten and only 11 infantry companies remained, and the only good 240th regiment also suffered heavy losses from the enemy, and the losses were huge.
The only good thing is that before the start of the battle, the seventh interspersed company with a good news, a soldier in their company sketched the deployment map of the American army, on the night of the 27th, they launched a fierce attack on the enemy's position, greatly eliminating the enemy's living forces, otherwise the next battle will be more difficult.
The division staff officer walked over, sighed, and brought back a bad news: "Lao Li, the logistics side... Ay. ”
The commander of the 80th Division raised his head and was shocked: "There is also a problem with the logistics side!?" ”
He handed a document to the commander of the 80th Division, "Look at it for yourself." ”
"The 15 vehicles of the army logistics in Liangjushui were attacked by air raids, 13 were lost, and only two remained, and all the masks and other materials sent by the second division that had not yet been unloaded were also bombed. In the second part, 30 trucks of food and ammunition were sent to the headquarters of the 80th Division, but on the way, they were bombed by the US troops again, and only part of the food and ammunition was sent to the headquarters of the 80th Division. ”
The commander of the 80th Division sighed: "The battle has been fought to this extent, it has been very difficult, count the food and ammunition, and distribute it to the 238th and 239th regiments at night, their task is difficult and they have suffered heavy losses, as for the 240th regiment ......"
He rubbed his eyebrows: "Let the 240th Regiment cross the Jiangbei and join the 238th Regiment, and when the general offensive begins, cooperate with the 238th Regiment to launch an attack on the US troops in Xinxingli." ”
The division staff officer asked again: "Lao Li, what about the supply .....problem?"
Division Commander Li was silent for a moment, and said: "The logistics estimate can't be delivered, let the soldiers of each regiment insist on persevering, the American army in Xinxing is about to be eaten by our army, and hold on until the battle is won." ”
Just when the division headquarters was worried, Yu Xingguo, the commander of the 239th Regiment, was smiling, not long ago, he was still worried about the materials when he received a good news, the seventh interspersed company drove the supplies to the rear of the 239th Regiment station, after a quick count, Yu Xingguo immediately reported to the division headquarters.
At this time, the division headquarters was still worried just now, and the telegraph operator suddenly said: "Division commander, the 239th Regiment has sent a telegram that Comrade Xia Yuan of the 7th Interspersed Company has captured a truckload of American supplies in Xiajieyu, and after counting, it will be immediately reported to the division headquarters. ”
"I'll see."
The division staff officer stepped forward, took the telegram document, didn't look at it or didn't care, and immediately showed surprise and joy on his face: "Lao Li, come and take a look, this batch of materials is abundant." There were 23 boxes of military coats, 21 boxes of cotton clothes, 10 boxes of cotton socks, 14 boxes of cotton boots, more than 30 boxes of various medicines, and 15 boxes of canned food. Nine boxes of grenades, twelve Super Bazookas, thirty-three shells, four heavy machine guns, five boxes of bullets, and two boxes of rifle bullets. ”
Division Commander Li was stunned for a moment, quickly stood up and took the document handed over by the division staff officer, and after a quick browsing, his face turned cloudy: "It's the Seventh Interspersed Company again, it's this Xia Yuan again, this kid is a talent, some time ago, the telegram submitted by the 239th Regiment said that this kid ran to Xiajieyu, burned the fuel supply of the American army, and moved his hands and feet on the enemy's artillery position, on the night of the 27th, a large-scale explosion occurred in the artillery position in Xiajieyu, and the 58th Division of the 20th Army rushed into Xiajieyu and destroyed a large number of enemy fortifications, Bombed a lot of tanks, but unfortunately there was an error in the intelligence of the number of American troops in Xiajieyu, and they attacked the fortified positions for one night, and finally retreated, and during the day on the 28th, the American troops airdropped a large number of supplies and personnel, and the reinforcements from Gutuli were also desperately rushing to Xiajieyu, for fear that Xiajieyu would be lost. ”
He put the documents on the table and smiled: "I thought this kid was lying before, but the appearance of this cart of supplies and the explosion in the corner of the bottom basically confirmed that what this kid said was true." You look at these materials, twelve super bazookas, four heavy machine guns, a number of other materials, the most important thing is bazooka, our army is seriously lacking in bazooka, now there are twelve, with these bazooka, we have the ability to deal with the armored vehicles of the American army, this kid really gave us a big surprise, let the 239th regiment distribute twelve bazooka and shells to the 238th regiment and the 240th regiment, the American army wants to run, and on the 30th we will eliminate them in Xinxingli! ”
"The other materials will be distributed equally, let Yu Xingguo pay attention to it himself, and let him send some medicines, our division headquarters does not have these medicines."
Division Commander Li was in a good mood and said happily: "Let the Seventh Company record this kid's combat experience, and when the battle is over, I will take his combat experience to the military headquarters!" Must be a Level 2 Combat Hero! ”
"Good!"
Yu Xingguo of the 239th Regiment looked at the telegram sent by the division headquarters, a smile appeared on his face, and he turned his head to Wu Qianli and said: "Comrade Xia Yuan has done a good job, the division commander specially instructed you to record Comrade Xia Yuan's combat experience, and when the battle is over, he will take Comrade Xia Yuan's combat experience to the military headquarters, no matter how you say it, he will have to come back a combat hero." ”
Wu Qianli and Mei Sheng looked at each other and smiled, Wu Qianli said: "Regiment leader, we have ..... this batch of materials for the seventh company."
Yu Xingguo was stunned for a moment, and nodded Wu Qianli, "You kid, okay, this batch of materials was captured by the soldiers in your company, then Bazooka will give you one, three shells, and you will take away the big eight bullets, there are fewer soldiers in the army equipped with big eight grains, and two boxes of bullets are not enough." As for the heavy machine gun, even if it is given to you, you will not be able to use it. I can leave some medicine and food for you, but cotton clothes... Cotton clothing is an important material in short supply for the troops, and the number of cotton clothing in your seventh company is about the same. ”
Mei Sheng hurriedly said: "Regiment leader, those military coats can be cut, and one military coat can be made into two sets of cotton clothes." ”
Yu Xingguo looked at Mei Sheng with a smile, "You, then I'll give you five sets of military coats, is this done?" ”
Mei Sheng smiled and nodded: "Cheng!" With five sets we are satisfied! Leave the medicine and food to the wounded, they need it more than we do! ”
Yu Xingguo, "You will take it for you, what about the casualties of the Seventh Company?" ”
Mei Sheng and Wu Qianli were silent, their bags containing a stack of information about the soldier's badge.
Yu Xingguo sighed: "War, how can there be no sacrifice, but the conditions are too difficult, there are still many soldiers in the whole regiment wearing single clothes, and even some sacrificed soldiers have not enjoyed the warmth, so they sacrificed, the weather is too cold, many soldiers have used medicine, and they have not improved, and they have been frozen to death." ”
Sacrifice is a heavy topic, like the bloody scars under their thick cotton clothes, no one wants to discuss this, but scars are always scars, whether you say it or not, it will grow on your body and make you feel a tingle.
