Chapter 527: Will you accept the offer of human life?

Yan'an.

Military Commission.

In the cave, Wood and the boss sat opposite Wei Lihuang, and both sides were waiting in silence.

They were supposed to start negotiations about what happened last night, but as soon as they sat down at the negotiation table, the communicator outside the door rushed in and said, "Bai Yatai has sent a secret report that our 115th Regiment of the 688th Division has captured Tiejialing at the cost of 482 casualties! Currently, the 217th Brigade, led by the Director of the Political Department Yang Jingyu, is fighting for Ruyuekou."

In the previous battle report, the 115th Division had already explained the distribution of the enemy and our side. A squadron of Japanese soldiers was stationed at Tiejialing. These Japanese soldiers occupied advantageous terrain and defended high points. If in this case, the 688th Regiment only paid 482 lives, then this ratio was definitely not a big loss.

From here on, the things that should have been discussed further were stopped. Wood, the boss, and Wei Lihuang sat in the cave waiting for the battle report from the front. Now, they have been waiting for more than an hour!

"report!"

"report!"

The messenger rushed into the cave with the coded telegram he had just translated. After handing the telegram to Wood, Wood stood up and slammed the document on the table: "Commander-in-Chief Wei, our army's 115th Regiment of the 688th Division has lived up to everyone's expectations. Led by General Han Xianchu, we have captured Tiejialing and set up machine gun positions on the hillside below Tiejialing, defeating the Japanese invaders coming to support from Ruyuekou!"

"We killed 320 enemies on and off the mountain, and seized more than 280 Type 38 rifles, seven light and heavy machine guns, and more than 6,400 rounds of various bullets."

"it is good!"

"OK!!"

Wei Lihuang was also very happy. At this point in time, as long as there were people who could resist the Japanese, they would be happy from the bottom of their hearts, not to mention that they had won a victory.

"Okay?"

Wood chuckled without hostility: "But our 688th Regiment has used up all its bullets in this battle. Now the whole regiment only has these 688 rounds of spare ammunition left. If the enemy attacks now, Commander Wei, how can you let our th Regiment survive?"

Wood got straight to the point with just one sentence. It was really hard to understand that an entire regiment was left with only 6,000 rounds of ammunition.

"I can help with the bullets!" Wei Lihuang stood up. He had no choice but to join in. Could it be that they had achieved such great results and you said nothing? Then what kind of commander-in-chief are you in the Xinzhou battlefield?
"I will immediately have someone from the National Government Logistics Department allocate 688 rounds of ammunition and grenades to your th Regiment!" He thought that this number was not enough? But Wood was still looking at him with a smile on his face. He felt that this gentle Wood seemed to be no easier to deal with than Mr. Ziren, who got angry as soon as they met: "How about I give you some more shells?"

The boss stood up at this moment and said: "That would be great. Although we don't have many French towed guns and anti-tank guns, we still have eight guns that are not used in Yan'an now."

"Okay, one thousand rounds of French towed guns and anti-tank guns. I will sign it myself and urge the National Government Logistics Department to do this."

Wei Lihuang finally let go of his anxious heart. If the number was just this small, then it would be worthwhile to come to Yan'an and bring the 120th Division to the Shanxi battlefield. "Report!!!"

"Report!!!"

Another messenger rushed in again and handed another telegram to Wood.
After reading it, Wood shouted repeatedly: "Good! Good!"

He placed the telegram on Wei Lihuang's desk, pointed at the ciphered message and said, "Look, Commander-in-Chief, Yang Jingyu of the 217th Brigade has led his troops to capture the two high grounds on the left and right of Ruyuekou, but at this point, they can only use the bullets taken from the devils. It is still unknown whether they can capture Ruyuekou."

Wei Lihuang stopped reading the telegram, stretched out his hand to push the telegram in front of him back, turned his head to look outside the door, stretched out his hand and pointed outside: "No more 'secret telegrams', right?"

Hahahaha!

Wood laughed out loud, waved his hand and shouted outside, "Come in!"

The two communicators outside the door entered the room. Wood put his hands behind his back and said, "Read the battle report to Commander Wei."

"115th Division: The Ruyuekou Battle, led by the 688th Regiment, started last night. At 01:45, the 688th Regiment occupied Tiejialing. A total of people were lost during the attack, including seriously injured and seriously injured and died;"

"At 02:15, Ru Yuekou gathered troops to launch a counterattack on Tiejialing. Commander Han Xianchu prepared an ambush at the foot of Tiejialing in advance. When the Japanese arrived at the slope at the foot of Tiejialing, hundreds of grenades were thrown out collectively, and then light and heavy machine guns and rifles opened fire at the same time. The Japanese troops were defeated on the spot, and they hurriedly returned a few shots and fled in all directions. In the second battle of Tiejialing, a total of enemies were killed, and four light and heavy machine guns, rifles, more than bullets, and grenades were seized."

"At 02:00, Yang Jingyu led the New 67nd Regiment and the 217th Regiment to attack the heights on the left and right of Ruyuekou. At the same time, the 03th Artillery Battalion bombarded the Japanese positions, pouring half of the base number of shells on the Japanese positions within an hour with irregular intermittent bombardment. When the last round of shells fell, Yang Jingyu was afraid that the Japanese would react, so he rushed to the Ruyuekou position facing the explosion of the shells and fought with them. At 55:217, the Japanese flag at Ruyuekou was pulled down, and the 217th took back the land that had fallen into the hands of the enemy. After the great victory at Tuanchengkou, they won another victory. At Ruyuekou, the th drove the Japanese out of the position with the loss of people from two regiments, completely defeated the Songyuan Battalion, and annihilated enemies!"

"In the Battle of Liangshan and the Battle of Ruyuekou, we captured five enemy trucks, eleven barrels of gasoline, more than four hundred Japanese rifles, nine grenade launchers, four boxes of grenade launcher shells, two sets of repair tools, and 9 rounds of various bullets."

The reason why so many ammunition and weapons were seized at Ru Yuekou was that the ammunition of the entire blockade line, including the defenders of Tiejialing, all went out from Ru Yuekou, which resulted in less ammunition in the front and more ammunition in the rear; more importantly, after the battle of Tuanchengkou, the Japanese discovered that all the ammunition and equipment on the bodies of their own soldiers had been stripped away, which decided to set the discipline of not allowing ordinary soldiers to carry too many bullets. They were afraid that after people were shot to death, the bullets on their bodies would be used to continue shooting them.

"Then..." Wei Lihuang looked at Wood.

Wood said at an even pace, "The 217th Brigade is Xu Chaoyang's unit. Since Commander-in-Chief Wei said that Xu Chaoyang must be vindicated, I think this is an opportunity."

When, when, when.

Wood poked the battle report on the table with his finger and said, "217 is a real anti-Japanese war. Commander Wei, now is the time for all of us to see how your government treats the heroes who fought against the Japanese. This is related to the attitude of miscellaneous troops like us towards the government in the future. Please make the decision, Commander."

Wood threw a punch at Wei Lihuang!
This time it's okay. The top leader holds an oil lamp for you to illuminate the map, and the respected people bow to you. You can do it yourself.
