The platoon leader stopped the two soldiers who were carrying the corpse. The two soldiers threw the corpse to the ground and looked at their platoon leader in bewilderment. They didn't know what the sight of the blown-up Japanese corpse was. .
"Let me take a look at this guy." The platoon leader went over and squatted in front of the corpse. Regardless of how ugly the pile of bloody and rotten meat was in front of him, he reached out and dug around the corpse. Within a few moments, he took out a few pieces of meat from the corpse's pocket. Samples, pieces of paper and other things were unfolded next to each other and looked over. The platoon leader's face suddenly showed a look of surprise, "This is the leader of the Japs Brigade, Major General Chiyo Tai of this village."
"What, this is the Japanese Major General." All the soldiers around were surprised, and everyone gathered around curiously to admire the honor of the Japanese Major General.
"This guy is not that big. Even his nose is crooked. He can be a brigade leader with his appearance." A soldier touched his nose and looked at the corpse on the ground with disdain.
"That's right, this guy only has one leg. It looks really ugly. I guess if you bury it in the ground, the crops will grow prosperously next year." An older soldier evaluated the village's major general like an old farmer looking at fertilizer. He just didn't know. What is the inevitable connection between a leg and the prosperous growth of crops?
"Pull him down. One of this devil's legs and half of his nose were blown off, okay? He had a lot of them when he was alive." Another short soldier who looked quite shrewd obviously didn't agree with the two comrades. statement.
"You have seen what this guy was like when he was alive." The soldier who spoke first immediately countered. This man dared to say that the Japanese were good-looking. How could that be okay?
"That's right, none of us have ever seen this guy alive. Maybe he was missing a leg when he was alive." The older soldier immediately followed.
"Stop talking, this is Chiyota Motomura, the commander of the Japanese Major General Brigade. Quick, carry this body up and let's go to the company commander to report." The platoon leader carefully checked all the evidence and confirmed that the body was that of the Japanese Brigade. After the commander, he immediately interrupted the soldiers' argument and killed the leader of the Japanese Brigade. This was a great achievement and he had to report it immediately.
"What, Chiyota my village was killed in the bombing." A look of surprise appeared on Zhang Yaoming's face. Being able to kill the leader of the Japs Major General Brigade on the battlefield was also a big achievement for General Zhang. This matter You will definitely get a commendation if you report to Commander Hu. However, the leader of the Japanese Brigade was killed by a cannonball. It seems that the surname of the 500th Army who made meritorious service is more likely.
Although the credit for killing the leader of the Japs brigade is quite tempting, Zhang Yaoming is not willing to take credit from others. There are plenty of Japs. If he wants to take credit, he can take credit for himself. It is not Zhang Yaoming's style to shamelessly take credit from others. "Give me the credit." Commander Gao of the 500th Army sent the report. "Zhang Yaoming decided to inform Gao Quan of the matter in advance. He was a hero, and it was more in line with the rules to have Gao Quan report it to Commander Hu.
Before Gao Quan arrived at Lingbao, he received a congratulatory telegram from Zhang Yaoming. Zhang Yaoming explained in detail in the telegram that the brigade leader of the village's Major General Chiyoda was killed, and that the time he was killed was basically around 500 When the army fired artillery, if they had been killed by the artillery shells of the 38th Army, could the Japanese not collect the bodies?
Only after the 500 troops came up, they launched a bombardment and then chased them. The living Japanese were running away in a panic and did not bother to collect the corpses. In this way, it was possible to throw the corpse of a major general brigade commander on the battlefield. Congratulations to Zhang Yaoming. In addition, he also reminded Gao Quan that he must report to Chief Hu as soon as possible. Such a major matter must be reported to Chief Hu as soon as possible.
Gao Quan was filled with admiration and loyalty, and immediately called back: The death of Chiyota in this village was caused by a joint attack by the two armies. Now the five hundred troops have left the battlefield and are on their way to Lingbao. Since the body is thirty-eight If the army discovered it, the credit should go to the 38th Army. Commander-in-Chief Zhang is asked to report to Commander Hu of the theater on his own. Everyone respects me and I respect others. Zhang Yaoming has a high style and Gao Quan does not want to be looked down upon.
Zhang Yaoming couldn't laugh or cry when he received this call back. Is this a humble and polite thing? Whoever deserves the credit on the battlefield gets the credit. There is no give and take. You treat each other as a treat and push each other around. , Okay, since you, Commander Gao, are too busy to even report your military exploits, I will report them for you.
Deputy Commander-in-Chief Zhang immediately reported to the commander of the theater: In the Battle of Guandaokou, the 500th Army assisting the 38th Army used artillery to kill the Major General of the 59th Brigade of the 69th Division of the Japanese Army. Chiyota Kimura, the body of Chiyota Kimura is available as evidence.
It is said that after Chief Hu saw the telegram, he grinned and giggled several times. In the end, Hu Zongnan, who rarely smoked, actually lit a cigarette and smoked it.
While blowing smoke rings, Chief Hu chattered to the generals around him: "When I was young, I learned the art of fortune telling from a book on physiognomy. The first time I saw Gao Quan, I realized that this man was a rare person. Blessed people, when I asked him to come over from Liu Jingfu a few days ago, you stillIf you have any opinions, take a look, take a look, Gao Quan has just been in my first combat zone for a few days, and he already killed a Japanese major general. If he had been serving in my first combat zone, do you think he would have killed another one? The general of the Japanese army. "
"Yes. Since the chief said he could, he will definitely do it. Maybe Gao Quan will shoot Okamura Neji one day. Then the chief will go to the committee to ask for credit on his behalf."
The surrounding generals all agreed, but they didn't agree at all. They killed Okamura Neji. Commander Okamura was in Nanjing. Can Gao Quan fly to Nanjing to find Okamura Neji? These people forgot, The general in our army is not just Okamura Neji.
"Electrify the 500 Army to commend the meritorious officers of the 500 Army. Report to the chairman of the committee that our 500 Army in the First Theater District has killed another Japanese major general. Telegraph Zhang Yaoming to upgrade the officers and soldiers of the 38th Army who discovered the body of the Japanese major general. The bonus is two hundred yuan.¡±
He not only rewarded Gao Quan, but also took care of Zhang Yaoming, killed a Japanese major general, commended two frontline troops, and reported it to the Central Committee, making the Chairman also happy. Chief Hu's grasp and handling of things are indeed better than ordinary people. many.
"This Zhang Yaoming, after all the credit goes to him, why did he still report me?" Gao Quan looked at the telegram and shook his head with a smile, and then complained, "What does it mean to commend all the soldiers of the 500 Army? I don¡¯t even dare to say how much the reward will be. This Commander Hu is too stingy. Even if you reward three hundred and two hundred, you still have to explain it clearly. What is going on with this unclear situation? How do you want me to tell the soldiers? They explain.¡±
Fortunately, Gao Quan did not complain in front of Commander Hu. Otherwise, Commander Hu would have greatly lowered his evaluation of Commander Gao like Commander Xue of the Ninth War Zone.
The entrance to the official road was not that far away from Lingbao. They chased the Japs from the 69th Division, fighting and fighting all the way. In more than three hours, they approached the outskirts of Lingbao, where the fighting was going on.
