Watanabe Hiroshi returned to the wing headquarters with his subordinate officers, and when he was hungry and held a military meeting to launch an attack the next day, Xia Xingshuo, Lin Nan and others had eaten their fill and were also holding a military meeting. eng.com is the fastest updated
After the meeting began, Xia Xingshuo highly praised the officers and soldiers who participated in the Shentou Ridge blockade operation, and affirmed the strong, brave and fearless spirit of the Chinese and Indian officers and soldiers.
Especially the commanders Lin Yi and Song San who took the lead were highly praised by Xia Xingshuo. Xia Xingshuo promised that after Lin Yi, Song San and other heroic Sino-Indian army officers recovered from their injuries, he would personally welcome them to join the regular troops of the People's Liberation Army as officers.
The company and battalion-level commanders present in the conference room were inspired by this. Most of them applauded with excitement, wishing they could lead their troops and fight to the death against the Japanese army this afternoon.
"Little Japan's main force will arrive tomorrow." Seeing everyone looking very excited, Xia Xingshuo said in a deep voice: "At that time, there will inevitably be a fierce battle. You must learn from the troops participating in the battle today, and in your respective defensive areas Inside, we will fight to the death and resolutely hold our position."
Everyone made impassioned speeches and vowed to fight to the last man and stop the Japanese army in front of their positions.
Xia Xingshuo told Chen Jie, the commander of the first regiment: "Commander Chen, your troops have gotten a certain amount of rest today. Looking at the posture of Little Japan, early tomorrow morning, they will continue to attack the mountains on the left side of Shentou Ridge. Therefore, Tonight, you will send a battalion to the mountains on the left for reinforcements."
"Yes" Chen Jie responded loudly: "Mr. Xia, please rest assured. After the meeting, I will personally lead a regiment and a battalion up the mountain. My troops have also fought against Little Japan in the past two days. They are nothing special."
"Don't be careless." Xia Xingshuo warned with a straight face: "The Japanese army rushed in and went into battle without rest. It is inevitable that they will lack physical strength and will be continuously repelled by our army. After they rest today, the intensity of their attack tomorrow will be greatly increased." Strengthen, you must be prepared to fight a battle that is even more difficult and fierce than this afternoon.¡±
Chen Jie thought for a while and felt that Xia Xingshuo's words made sense. He quickly corrected his attitude and said that he would work hard to fight the Japanese army.

¡°Therefore, we must take advantage of the favorable terrain here to hone the combat effectiveness of our troops and enhance our military strength.¡±
Then, it was Lin Nan¡¯s turn to speak. When Lin Nan talked about the many lightly and seriously wounded people who would die because they could not get the necessary treatment, all the company, battalion and regiment commanders invariably suppressed their smiles and showed sad expressions.
Since the soldiers of the Chinese and Indian troops are all composed of Indonesians, their combat effectiveness is very average, and they are not taken seriously by the General Staff of the People's Liberation Army. Therefore, the Chinese and Indian troops are extremely short of medical supplies and medical staff.
At this time, after many battles between the Chinese and Indian troops and the Japanese army, the stored medical supplies had been almost exhausted. Although some were seized from the Japanese army, the quantity was too small to be used.
After this tragic battle in the afternoon, the number of lightly and seriously injured Chinese and Indian officers and soldiers reached an astonishing number of more than 700, and it was simply impossible to treat all of them.
The remaining products can only save a few Chinese officers. Most of the Indonesian soldiers who were injured in brave battles will die because they did not receive timely medical treatment.
¡°Training and getting along with these Indonesian soldiers who have been brainwashed and educated and regard themselves as Chinese descendants all day long, the officers of the Chinese and Indian troops have developed a certain affection for them. In addition, after many fierce battles together, everyone regarded each other as comrades and brothers.
So, now we have to watch these comrades who can continue to live as long as they get certain medical treatment, but lose their precious lives just because of the lack of medical treatment. How can everyone not feel sad?
Xia Xingshuo expressed deep sympathy for this point and decided to let the heavy machine gun battalion and mortar battalion allocate most of their supplies to treat the wounded who were in urgent need of treatment.
Heavy machine gun battalion commander Cao Limin and mortar battalion commander Deng Si both expressed their approval and support and immediately put it into practice.
Then, Xia Xingshuo sent another text message to Chen Hao, explaining the situation here and asking Chen Hao to let the guards and special forces also distribute some supplies and send them to treat the wounded. f! ~!
