Chapter 0264 My unyielding Chinese military spirit!
"What?"
Chen Yong and the officers of the 44th Division were all stunned. Because the annihilation of the village brigade was just the beginning?
Don't joke, if you wipe out the village brigade, everyone thinks that it is an innovation.
Because everyone knows how fierce the Japanese are in combat. If it is a head-on confrontation, a regiment may not be able to wipe out the forces of a Japanese squadron in such a short period of time, let alone a brigade.
But Dragon Boat Festival not only did it, but also told them that this was just the beginning. Could it be that the special envoy in front of them still want to wipe out the enemy's 38th Regiment?
This idea was crazy. But Chen Yong instinctively refused: "Commissioner, although I have deeply understood your command ability. However, with our current strength, we are not enough to compete with the 38th Japanese Regiment. Let's retreat to the city and the fortifications. This way we are safe."
Dragon Boat Festival sneered: "At this time, where else is safe? Where can we retreat? Retreat and retreat can only become an international laughing stock, making the Japanese army even more unscrupulous and crazy."
"But!"
Chen Yong is still very worried.
"Nothing is true, what is the 38th Japanese Regiment? I will let you see how embarrassed the Japanese will be.
Order everyone to build fortifications on the top of the mountain and transfer all the mortars in the city to me.
What a great opportunity this is? If we missed it today, there would be no such opportunity in the future. The fighter opportunity is fleeting, and I hope you can understand it."
Dragon Boat Festival directly commanded Chen Yong in the tone of command.
Chen Yong frowned, but after thinking for a while, he ordered everyone to act according to the Dragon Boat Festival plan.
Although the soldiers resisted this order, they did not dare to disobey Chen Yong's order. What's more, the 44th Division has always been known for its bravery.
So after the order was issued, all the soldiers looked for engineer shovels on the Japanese and built fortifications on the top of the mountain.
But for some reason, just after all the soldiers started to move, Chen Yong suddenly disappeared.
At the same time, Dragon Boat Festival was looking into the distance with a telescope. Because he felt that the Japanese reinforcements should arrive soon.
At this moment, Cheng Wanli came to the Dragon Boat Festival and lowered his voice and said, "I saw Chen Yong return to the city. Is this kid going to run?"
Dragon Boat Festival said with a smile: "Chen Yong will not run away. This person is as good as his name. He still has courage. Otherwise, he would not have acted in Changshu as he wants to fight the Japanese army."
Cheng Wanli said disagreeingly: "Who knows? There are many generals who escaped in this war."
Dragon Boat Festival laughed again and said, "Haha, Chen Yong is not that kind of person. If I guessed correctly, he should have gone to discuss with Staff Xiao."
"Staff Secretary Xiao? Well!"
When Cheng Wanli heard the explanation of Dragon Boat Festival, he was surprised at first, but then nodded because he also felt that Dragon Boat Festival's speculation was not wrong. Chen Yong relied on that adviser Xiao very much.
But this makes sense, why did Chen Yong rise to the top and climb to the position of the division commander at a young age? I'm afraid it is also inseparable from this staff officer.
However, Chen Yong's departure made the soldiers of the 44th Division seem to be inconvenient. Because what they will face next is to face hard steel in the wild with the enemy 38th Regiment. Dragon Boat Festival also ordered them to hang the Japanese's bodies in the woods at the foot of the mountain.
Is this a provocation to the Japanese? I am afraid that the Japanese army would be very angry if there was no such provocation?
But that special commissioner was as afraid that the Japanese would not fight with him.
So at this time, many people were unsure and were discussing each other whether the soldiers of the five battalions would be killed by the young commissioner today. After all, Dragon Boat Festival is too young. There is no comparison with veteran commanders like Chen Yong and Xiao.
They didn't even know that this beautiful encirclement and annihilation battle was taken by the Dragon Boat Festival.
People were panic and morale was low. Even Cheng Wanli began to think that this battle could defeat the enemy 38th registrar as expected. After all, this was a full gang with three infantry brigades under its jurisdiction.
Although the village brigade has been completely wiped out, the 38th Regiment still needs two infantry brigades, two artillery squadrons and one heavy machine gun squadron.
How many troops will it take to swallow such an elite Japanese army?
Just five battalions? Even if there are five battalions, they may still be blocking the chariot by a mantis arm.
But that young man was full of confidence.
He stood on the top of the mountain like a bandit leader, shouting to the soldiers of the 44th Division who were working: "Little ones, take out your courage. The Japanese have nothing to be afraid of. Have you heard of the battle at Sixing Warehouse?"
"Sihang Warehouse?"
"It's the Chinese army that Shanghai persisted until the end?"
"I have heard that the entire army has announced it."
"Yes, yes, I know this. When we saw the notice of the entire army, our regiment commander drank three jars of wine. Our regiment commander said that even though we knew it, the unrealistic ones on it could be considered anger for our Chinese soldiers."
“What exactly is it written on it?”
There are new recruits who don’t know about this, ask.
The veteran recalled: "Under the Sihang Warehouse, the Japanese corpses were piled up like mountains, and it is said that there were at least 5,000 people,..."
"What?"
At this moment, all the officers and soldiers of the 44th Division present were shocked. In such an unfavorable situation in the Battle of Shanghai, some people could wipe out more than 5,000 Japanese soldiers? They sounded like a fantasy.
However, at this moment, Cheng Wanli said loudly: "The one who won that war was the special envoy in front of you. His name is - Dragon Boat Festival!"
The two words "Dragon Boat Festival" echoed throughout the high ground for a long time. All the soldiers from the five battalions widened their eyes and looked up at the Dragon Boat Festival like worshiping gods.
Dragon Boat Festival smiled contemptuously: "I never took the Japanese devils seriously. I will take you to reappear in the Sihang Warehouse today. Let you see how vulnerable the Japanese devils are. In front of us Chinese soldiers, they are just a group of clowns jumping in!
Someone just said, I want to anger the Japanese.
Yes, I just want them to attack this mountain as if they were crazy. And I also want them to know that I am on this mountain.
Young people, today I will live and die with you on Dragon Boat Festival. Do you dare to kill the Japanese with me?"
"well!"
"Kill the Japanese! Kill the Japanese!..."
