    Precisely because he had been mentally prepared before, this young combat staff officer was now the first to calm down after Wang Deyao's sacrifice. When he saw that Chen Zhiping was a little out of sorts because of Wang Deyao's sacrifice, he immediately spoke out to dissuade him.  Because he knew that if Chen Zhiping, as the political commissar, could not control his emotions, it would easily affect the troops below.

    Although in the Anti-Japanese Alliance, the political commissar generally has no involvement in military issues, and the chief military officer has the final say. However, as the political commissar who is in charge of other matters, he is also the top political chief of the army. His mood is good or bad, especially his expression.  Whether you can keep your composure will undoubtedly affect the mood of the troops below.

    After hearing the words of persuasion from the combat staff, Chen Zhiping woke up and shook his head. With the help of the guards behind him, he stood up. After barely stabilizing his emotions, he first told his guards behind him and immediately found the regiment leader.  , and at the same time, the news of the commander's death was tightly sealed, and no one was allowed to know except the regiment leader.

    After carefully explaining to the guards behind him, and finding Su Yingqi as quickly as possible, Chen Zhiping turned to the radio operator who came with Wang Deyao and said: "You should report this matter to the chief of staff immediately.  Report and request the Chief of Staff¡¯s instructions on our next steps.¡±

    However, in response to Wang Deyao's order, this radio station was directly under the Second Regiment. His head was scratched by a grenade and he was simply bandaged with a first aid kit. However, he shook his head and said: "Political Commissar, I'm afraid we have no way to tell the Chief of Staff.  Got in touch directly.¡±

    "If it weren't for this radio station, you wouldn't be able to see me. When the radio station I led was attacked just now, although it saved one of my lives, it was hit by a machine gun bullet that was meant to hit my back.  It was damaged. Now the entire radio station is completely damaged and cannot be used at all. I only have the code book, but there is no way to contact the chief of staff. "

    "Our regiment went out to fight this time. In order to be light-weight, we brought a 15-watt radio for both radio and communication. The rest were walkie-talkies with too small power, which could only guarantee the distance between battalions and companies of more than ten kilometers.  The communication distance with the regiment headquarters cannot reach that far. With the walkie-talkies we have left, we cannot get in touch with the chief of staff at all. "

    "Unless we retreat to the artillery first and relay our situation through their radio, or directly use your walkie-talkies to communicate with the artillery and ask them to report our current situation. The artillery has high-power radios.  Can be forwarded via Artillery Command."

    "Otherwise, unless we reach a suitable communication distance, we will not be able to get in touch with Chief of Staff Yang on our own. Now, is it necessary to get in touch with Chief of Staff through the heavy artillery unit behind and report the situation here?  You and the leader make up your mind."

    Having said this, the radio operator hesitated for a moment, then looked at Chen Zhiping and said, "Political Commissar, how about I make a trip myself to the heavy artillery position and use their radio to contact the Chief of Staff. At least we have to report the situation here.  , make a report to the Chief of Staff, especially about the sacrifice of the commander, we must let the Chief of Staff know as soon as possible. "

    The operator's words made Chen Zhiping a little dumbfounded. After working in the Anti-Japanese Alliance, he only felt that the communication equipment of the Anti-Japanese Alliance was much more convenient than that of the Eighteenth Army in Guan Nei. Radio stations were equipped to the company level, which was almost impossible in the Guan Nei army.  As he imagined, although the previous battles were in chaos, precisely because of the walkie-talkies, he never felt the inconvenience of communication. He no longer had to send out communicators to find the troops like the customs troops did.

    But now he was suddenly told that he had a radio in his hand but could not get in touch with the chief of staff due to the communication distance. This somewhat surprised him. Chen Zhiping was holding a map stained with Wang Deyao's blood, but he didn't know what to do.  , looking at the bloody route on the map, he hesitated for a moment.

    He didn't know how to answer the radio operator's inquiry for a moment. Whether to retreat to the heavy artillery unit now still requires the military commander, the regiment commander, to make a decision. As a political commissar, he can't decide yet, but for now, let the radio operator  It is also unrealistic to travel eight kilometers by yourself to reach the heavy artillery position.

    Once something happens to the radio operator and the code for direct communication with the Chief of Staff is lost, then your second regiment will completely become a kite with a broken line. Although there are no large groups of enemy troops from here to the heavy artillery position,  But who can guarantee absolute safety? The commander was attacked and died under his own nose, let alone a radio operator.

    Regarding the radio operator's request to go to the heavy artillery position eight kilometers away to communicate with his superiors, Chen Zhiping directly refused without waiting for Su Yingqi to come. The risk was too great and he could not let the radio operator go alone.  Action, even if it means sending two people to protectAfter all, after the attack on Wang Deyao, Chen Zhiping did not dare to take this risk.

    Who knows if there are scattered Japanese troops or large troops from here to the heavy artillery position. These scattered Japanese troops will never dare to be provoked, but if there are only three or two people, they will definitely dare to attack. At the moment, there is not much to tell.  In the case of manual escort, Chen Zhiping did not dare to take the risk of losing the operator again, because as long as the operator was there and the code book was there, the radio station could still find a way out.

    Fortunately, Su Yingqi arrived in time after receiving the notification and resolved the silence. Looking at Wang Deyao's body, Su Yingqi shook his head. He didn't know how this happened. As a front-line commander, he knew that after a melee, the battlefield  There are certainly no large Japanese troops left on the battlefield, but there will still be some stragglers.

    It's just that he didn't care too much about the scattered Japanese troops that might appear. No matter how powerful the Japanese troops were, the guard squad next to the commander, all equipped with submachine guns, was not a vegetarian. Three or two Japanese troops,  Even if you want to take advantage, it will be difficult to break through the dense fire net of automatic firearms.

    Although the rear area has not yet had time to clean up, the safety of the commander and the radio station should be guaranteed. This is why he insisted on leaving a guard squad for Wang Deyao when Wang Deyao insisted on putting all troops on the front line, because he  I think leaving a company or a platoon behind is somewhat unlikely at the moment.

    Su Yingqi believed that when the front line was only one thousand meters away from Wang Deyao's area, leaving a guard squad could protect the safety of Wang Deyao and the radio station without putting too much pressure on the use of troops in front, so Su Yingqi ignored Wang Deyao.  Wang Deyao strongly opposed and resolutely left him a squad of the guard company, instead of leaving only two of his guards as Wang Deyao said.

    But he didn't expect that something would happen in the end. A member of the security class failed to protect the commander, and even the radio station was smashed. After listening to Chen Zhiping's story, Su Yingqi took the map he handed over and looked at it.  Looking at the retreat route marked with blood by Wang Deyao along the south bank of the Haihar River to the Hairitu line and turning towards Kundu, he frowned deeply.

    Putting down the map in his hand, he summoned Chen Zhiping and the staff officer who had been following Wang Deyao to his side, pointed at the bloody route on the map and said: "This route looks very safe now, but I don't think we can go.  I understand what the commander means. He wants to retreat along the Haihar River, so that he can have his back to the Haihar River and reduce the risk of being ambushed from all sides. "

    "If we choose this route, even if the Japanese army wants to sneak attack us, they can only attack us from one side and cannot set up an encirclement. In this way, although we are in certain danger, we will not fall into complete passivity. It should be said that if we insist on retreating to  For Kundu, this plan is almost the best choice.¡±

    "No matter which route we choose, it is difficult for us to guarantee absolute safety. Between absolute safety and relative safety, Commander Wang can only choose relative safety, because this is undoubtedly the most beneficial to our army at the moment.  A choice, of course, but also no choice.¡±

    "But what we can consider, the Japs can also consider. Although the main force of the 26th Regiment is on the front line of Baichengzi, the Japs are currently splitting a regiment into a brigade for organizational operations. In this way, the effect of our air strikes will be  To give a discount, the most important thing is that it also caused certain troubles in the reconnaissance of their troop movement speed and direction. "

    "You see, from the Baichengzi line to Tianshan Town, and then to the Zagastanol line, which is our current battlefield, the straight-line distance is not very far, and with the little devil's night marching speed, even if it is brought by the air raid  But if they march quickly with light equipment, they can arrive within an hour and a half at most. "

    "With the strength of the Japanese 7th Division and its attached troops, even if one regiment was entangled by us and the other two regiments suffered heavy casualties during bombing and shelling, they would never completely lose their combat effectiveness.  Even if they turn around with their main force and attack the front line of Balachirud, they still have enough troops to set up an ambush circle behind us. "

    "We have been fighting for such a long time, but the Japs are standing still on the battlefield north of Zagastanor. And judging from the telegram from the Chief of Staff, it is not a full-scale attack there. The Japs are marching at night.  The speed and ability are both quite strong.¡±

    "We have been delayed here for nearly three hours now, which is enough for them to mobilize at least one brigade of troops from Tianshan Town to the Hairitu front line, or even directly to the Zagastanol front line, but so  For a long time, there was no movement from the Japanese army. That is, their plan was to take advantage of the fact that our army had just finished the attack.In a bloody battle, they set up an ambush on the back road of our army, annihilating our army in this direction in one fell swoop, and reducing the pressure on them during subsequent operations.  "

    "Because Noboshi Kunizaki believes that even if our army can defeat or defeat the 28th Regiment, its own casualties will never be too light. Looking for opportunities to set up ambushes, our army is extremely tired after a long battle and consumes too much ammunition.  And with heavy casualties, giving us one more guy would definitely kill us. It was with this in mind that Commander Wang chose such a relatively safe route."

    "Kunisaki Noboru knows very well that as soon as he starts the attack on Balachirud, we must have a certain understanding of their troop deployment. We will only invest part of their troops to attack the front line of Balachirud.  It will also be very clear. With this understanding, we will definitely be wary of them being behind us when we retreat and choose our retreat route carefully. "

    "From a topographical point of view, there are not many routes for us to choose from. On our retreat route, only the south bank of the Haihar River has a relatively flat terrain. We followed the south bank of the Haihar River and retreated to Kunming via the Hairitu line.  Being on the front line has become our best choice.¡±
