After this battle, all the officers and soldiers of the 169th Regiment were exhausted. Commander Wang and Commander Zhang discussed it and ordered Zhang Xian and his 169th Regiment to camp on the spot and rest for one night before moving in the next day. Battle on the front lines. The other two regiments of the 57th Division also camped near the 169th Regiment.
Zhang Xian arranged for personnel to carry out camping work while arranging personnel to clean the battlefield. For the soldiers injured in this battle, Commander Zhang specially found several military vehicles and sent them to the rear hospital of the 57th Division for treatment. At the same time, everyone had a very heavy heart for the soldiers who died on the battlefield, and gathered them together. While washing the dirty faces of these heroes, they registered them and sorted out their belongings in preparation for the end of the battle. Then send it to his relatives who are still alive. Zhang Xian climbed up the hill himself, walked around, and found a place with good geomantic omen. He temporarily buried his soldiers here and would move them to the cemetery when the 74th Army built a cemetery after the battle. past.
As for the corpses of the Japanese soldiers, Zhang Xian left it to Lei Lei and Yu Changle to handle them. Yu Changle was a very careful person and was not disgusted because they were the corpses of the enemy. He showed great kindness. Leading a team of reserve recruits from the 169th Regiment, they were very serious about moving, placing, dressing, selecting burial sites, entering caves, covering up, and filling with soil. The Japanese prisoners in the prison camp were very moved when they saw that the Chinese army did not insult or desecrate the bodies of their comrades, but instead buried them with ceremony. Even the hard-hearted Japanese soldiers shed tears.
When the battlefield was cleaned up, it was already very late at night. All the soldiers in the battalions and companies of the 169th Regiment could hardly sleep. Today's battle was so beautiful. It was precisely because of everyone's running that we captured After seizing the fighter planes, the enemy 120th Regiment that escaped from the cave was wiped out in one fell swoop. At this point, no matter how tired or hungry they were, everyone felt it was worth it. In fact, these days, under the leadership of the regiment leader, the 169th Regiment has been fighting beautifully, which makes everyone feel proud, especially the veterans of the 57th Division. Everyone is even more impressed by their regiment leader. , but also full of confidence in victory. After all, after many failures, victory is hard-won.
Although the dinner started very late, it was quite sumptuous. Although there was no fresh meat, there was a cart of American canned food brought by Chief Wang to reward the officers and soldiers. There was also plenty of rice. This made me not have a good meal for several days. The officers and soldiers were overjoyed.
Zhang Xian accompanied Commander Wang and Commander Zhang to have dinner together in the regiment command post. The reporters had no intention of leaving. Following Commander Wang's suggestion, they went down to each company and battalion to interview the lower-level combat officers and soldiers. Zhang Xian knew that Chief Wang wanted these reporters to brag about the 74th Army. In the 74th Army, with the style of his 169th Regiment, he did not dare to call it an iron army, but it was not even close to an iron army. Not much. Among the millions of national troops, they are among the best in terms of military conduct and discipline, as well as in terms of combat capabilities.
This is the best regiment, and Wang Hui wants to push him out, let the Military Commission know, let the chairman know, let the people of all China know, and let people all over the world know!
Zhang Xian was very grateful to Chief Wang for his hard work, but he had no desire to become famous. He was still wondering about everything that happened in this battle. At this time, the battle was about to end, and victory was within easy reach, but it made He couldn't be satisfied. Originally, this victory should have been even more brilliant!
Seeing that Chief Wang had finished his meal, Zhang Xian finally couldn't hold back the words he had been holding in his heart for a long time and asked: "Jun Zuo, this war will soon end victoriously. There are a few things I don't understand. I really want to Could you please tell me something?" He asked very respectfully, the respect a student shows to his teacher.
Commander Wang took out his handkerchief, wiped his mouth, nodded, and asked with a smile: "Okay, just ask. If I can answer you, I will definitely tell you."
"Thank you Junzuo!" Zhang Xiandao said, then turned to look at Commander Zhang Linfu next to him. There were only three of them in this space at this time. There were guards guarding the outside. No one else could come in without his permission.
"I have two doubts that I would like to ask you!" Zhang Xian said: "First, after our 57th Division successfully completed the siege of the cave entrance, the 74th Army's divisions were also in position accordingly, and at this time the 18th Division to the north The army quickly moved forward and entered the battle near the mountain gate. It was a good time to attack the enemy's 116th Division from the north and south. If our 74th Army attacked the entrance of the cave at this time, I think the enemy's 116th Division It is absolutely impossible for the main force to withdraw from the battlefield calmly. But you let the 74th Army rest for a day and a half and missed a good opportunity to annihilate the enemy. Why is this?"
Hearing Zhang Xian ask this question, Zhang Linfu couldn't help but be startled.Will you let tens of thousands of people wait for us to eliminate them? "
Zhang Xian was startled for a moment, and immediately thought that this was indeed the case.
Just listen to Wang Hui continue: "Actually, I was very conflicted when I made the decision. If we are serious about blocking Shijiang, then the Japanese troops in Shaoyang will definitely sacrifice their lives to rescue them. There is still a division of theirs in Xinning to the south. The direction is eager to try, and there is another division in the north eyeing it near Yiyang. Although the division in the middle is watched by us, they did not fully mobilize because they had worries about their future. If we really get that time, we are not afraid They just have to fight for another month or two."
"As long as we hurry up and eliminate the besieged 116th Division, the enemy's reinforcements will naturally retreat in full!" Zhang Xian said authentically.
Wang Hui still shook his head and said leisurely: "Our three divisions surrounded the enemy's 109th Regiment near Guidong. I urged them repeatedly, but they were still unable to be annihilated. It's not that our officers and soldiers didn't work hard, it's that The Japs were still very powerful. Three divisions surrounded the regiment and fought for more than 20 days before defeating it. Just imagine, if we really surrounded the enemy's 116th Division and faced tens of thousands of Japs soldiers , I do not deny that we can annihilate them all, but how many troops do we need? How much time do we need to annihilate them all?"
Zhang Xian was speechless.
****************
Zhang Xian walked out of the command post in frustration. At this time, he suddenly felt that he was a gun in the hands of others and had no ability to make decisions. What could he do even if he was unwilling?
According to his usual habit, he visited each camp and was about to take a rest. At this time, he suddenly remembered Xiong Sanwa. This bastard had been put in solitary confinement by him. He immediately turned around and came to the confinement area, only to see a basket outside. When he opened it, he saw there were rice and cans inside.
"He won't eat!" the guard told Zhang Xian, while pointing at Xiong Sanwa lying on the straw inside.
Zhang Xian nodded, turned on the lamp, walked in with the basket, sat next to Xiong Sanwa on the straw, put the lamp and basket on the ground, and patted him on the shoulder.
Xiong Sanwa shook her shoulders stubbornly and shook off Zhang Xian's hand.
"No matter how angry you are, you still have to eat!" Zhang Xian calmed down and said to Xiong Sanwa.
Xiong Sanwa recognized Zhang Xian's voice and sat up, her body and head covered with straw.
"Why, are you still angry?" Zhang Xian deliberately teased him while removing the grass from his body and head.
Xiong Sanwa glanced at him and didn't answer.
"Listen to me!" Zhang Xianping made up his mind and said to him: "I also hate that mute very much, and I wish I could beat him to death, but I can't do this. I am the leader of the regiment, and I must take the overall situation into consideration. Seriously, we can¡¯t handle this matter based on personal grudges.¡±
"I don't care. You can't do it as the leader, but I can. I'm just uneducated, barbaric, and want revenge!" Xiong Sanwa said bitterly.
Zhang Xian bit his lip, was silent for a moment, sighed, and couldn't help but said meaningfully: "Yes, I think so too. But now we can no longer do this. Matsushita Yasujiro has surrendered. If this matter If the matter is revealed in the newspapers, the blow to the Japanese will be huge, much more severe than if we killed him. This will cause the Japanese's self-proclaimed Bushido spirit to collapse. If we publish the photos of our preferential treatment of Japanese prisoners, Then the morale of those Japanese soldiers will definitely be hit, and they will no longer fight so hard to the end, and our battle will be much easier to fight, and the casualties will be much less."
Xiong Sanwa nodded, his eyes were already red, and he said loudly to Zhang Xian: "Actually, brother, I know all what you said, but when I saw that dead mute, I felt so panicked that I wanted him dead! "
"If he really dies in our regiment, then where will you put me? And where will you put Master Zhang and Commander Wang?" Zhang Xian asked him in return.
This question does not need to be answered for Xiong Sanwa. After all, he has been in the army for so long and he does not understand small things, but he still understands such big things. He grinned suddenly and burst into tears. While crying, he cursed: "This damn mute, why is he so spineless? Why did he surrender like this!"
Yes, Zhang Xian did not expect Matsushita Seijiro's surrender, but he knew that from now on, it would be impossible to kill this mortal enemy justifiably. He couldn't help but feel a little bitter, and hugged Xiong Sanwa, who was in tears.
Xiong Sanwa was crying and howling: "Brother Chang, Brother Sima, I'm sorry for you, I can't kill your enemies for you, it's my third baby's incompetence, it's my third baby's incompetence! You are the spirit in heaven. , don¡¯t blame me, and don¡¯t blame the leader, he has nothing to do"
Zhang Xian¡¯s tears also poured down. The two brothers hugged each other tightly, but they were so helpless and speechless! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)??¡You souls in heaven, don¡¯t blame me, and don¡¯t blame the leader, he has nothing to do¡¡±
