Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

When the two parties joined forces in the war of resistance, most of the ranks given to the main division commanders of the Eighth Route Army by the Nationalist Government were major generals and lieutenant generals.Since the start of the war, the independent column has the most officers who have actually been promoted.

For such a young brigade commander to be promoted to a major general recognized by the government, he must have had solid military exploits.From another perspective, Li Xiangdong must also be He Zhengdao's confidant and beloved general, so he is qualified to take over He Zhengdao's behalf.

Not long after the march, Li Xiangdong also said in a timely manner: "General Song, the underground headquarters of the Japanese army division is located in the town ahead. Considering the location is not big, it may not be easy for your guard battalion to take it there.

If General Song doesn't mind, please bring two guards to accompany you there.As for your guard battalion, we will also arrange it properly.Here, too, we only arranged for one guard battalion, and the same goes for the other two generals. "

'Okay, then please trouble Brigadier Li to arrange it! '

Song Xilian wasn't surprised that only two guards were brought there.From here, it is less than [-] meters away from the underground headquarters where the Eighth Route Army stands guard.If something really happened, the guard battalion could rush over immediately.

What's more, no one dares to cause more trouble at this time.If there was a fight in the town, neither he nor He Zhengdao could be blamed.Being able to lead two guards shows that the Eighth Route Army is very polite.

The only thing that is a little uncomfortable is that Song Xilian feels that the Eighth Route Army has become the master of the house at this time.Just thinking about it, the Eighth Route Army was the first to capture the town and take down the Japanese army headquarters, so it should be taken as the master.

Just as Song Xilian waved for the cavalry to guard the battalion and wait outside.Li Xiangdong also said in a timely manner: "General Song, our army commander has come out!"

Looking back, there were indeed several people standing at the entrance of the underground headquarters.Although the night vision is not very good, Song Xilian can more or less recognize Xu Youchang and Feng Zhian standing next to a young man.

Being able to walk out of the command headquarters to greet him in person is considered to be enough face for him.Anyway, if we really want to talk about military rank, when Song Xilian sees He Zhengdao, he still salutes and asks, "Mr. He, good"!

Generals promoted by the Nationalist Government may not be very useful in the Eighth Route Army.But if you go to the Kuomintang-controlled area, even the Central Army will have to show some face.This is also the benefit that many soldiers of the Eighth Route Army felt after arriving in the Kuomintang-controlled area.

Although He Zhengdao was still wearing the standard military uniform of the Eighth Route Army, he did not wear the general uniform of the Central Army issued by the government.But Song Xilian walked to the headquarters and still saluted: "General He, hello!"

'General Song, you are too polite!I have been in the war zone for so long, and I have always heard about General Song's reputation, so I just had the chance to meet him today.General Xu and General Feng were both there before, and I couldn't greet them in person. I hope General Song will forgive me! '

He Zhengdao, who was smiling all over his face, actually didn't know much about Song Xilian, who was later called "General Eagle Dog".But he more or less knows that the 71st Army is the real trump card main force of the Central Army.

Being able to be the commander of this army is enough to show his status in Lao Jiang's heart!

I dare not take what General He said!This time I was able to capture the No.16 division. Speaking of which, I would also like to thank your department for your help.If you hadn't captured the town in advance, I'm afraid we wouldn't have a chance to stand here! '

'They are all friendly troops, so why be so polite!I prepared a little rough tea inside. If General Song doesn't mind, why don't we go in and drink and chat.As for the battle outside, General Xu and General Feng have arrangements, so it shouldn't be a problem. '

When smiling and reaching out to lead Song Xilian into the underground headquarters, Song Xilian did not forget to say hello to Xu Youchang and Feng Zhian.They belonged to the same war zone, and it wasn't the first time they met, but it was still appropriate to be polite.

After taking his seat, after some scenes were finished, He Zhengdao also took the initiative to say: "General Song, we had a little conflict with your ministry earlier, and I hope General Song doesn't mind. Our Eighth Route Army is poor, and we really can't move our legs when we see good things.

When the troops transferred the supplies, they were a little too impatient, and their words might offend. I hope General Song will understand.Compared with you, many of our things can only be seized.Therefore, we are indeed greedy for spoils. "

After such self-deprecating words were uttered, Song Xilian also smiled and said: "General He is too polite! Speaking of it, my subordinates should be confused. If it weren't for your help this time, I'm afraid we haven't won it yet. Where is the No.16 division!"

I dare not take General Song's words.The No. 16 division that can take down the little devil, your army also contributed a lot.What's more, your army's performance during this period is obvious to all. If you didn't fight well, we wouldn't have this chance.

It just so happens that today is a rare opportunity, and the commanders of our four armies are all there, so we might as well speak openly if we have something to say.I believe that after this war, our cooperation in the war of resistance should not come to an end.Presumably in the future, we still have the possibility of joint operations.

Although this time, we worked together to solve the No.16 division of the little devil.But the three of you should know that the little devil will not accept this failure willingly.Come back next time, it is estimated that they will add a lot of troops.

After going through this hard battle, my new 67th Army also suffered heavy casualties.The division in charge of blocking the No. 13 division of the little devil earlier also sent a telegram. In the past few days, the main force of their division has suffered close to half of the casualties. This battle is too bitter.

As for the 51st Army, General Xu also said earlier that according to their statistics, the casualties of the troops are estimated to be close to 77. For the [-]th Army, the situation is also not optimistic.As for your Ministry, after all this hard work, I'm afraid the situation will not be too good, right?

This means that the overall combat effectiveness of our fifth war zone has also dropped sharply.If the little devil makes a comeback and wants to fight such a tough battle again, I'm afraid we will be powerless! '

Listening to He Zhengdao's words, the three of them had relatively bitter expressions on their faces.After all, my family knows their own affairs, even if they fight well this time.But the losses of their respective troops are also obvious to all.

Following what He Zhengdao said, Song Xilian nodded without denying it and said, "Yes! Although we won this time, the price our 71st Army paid was indeed not small. Almost none of my three main divisions is complete.

In the next step, if we still want to fight such an offensive war, I'm afraid it will be powerless.But no matter what, this time our fifth theater can wipe out the two divisions of the little devils, and your new 67th army is the real main force! "

The bridal sedan chairs were carried by everyone. Facing He Zhengdao's complaints, Song Xilian naturally followed suit.The purpose of doing this is also very simple, that is, he hopes that when the results of the battle are distributed next, he can get more benefits. (To be continued.)>

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

(ps: Chapter 5 is here today! Ask for a monthly ticket, recommendation, subscription support! There will be more updates later, give me some motivation to support it!)

He Zhengdao invited the three army commanders who fought together to drink tea and chat leisurely in the captured Japanese underground headquarters.Li Zongren, who was waiting for the outcome of the battle, seemed a little anxious.

The battle situation of the four troops during the day has been reported to him.Li Zongren felt that the overall battle situation was not very good news.The reason is that none of the four troops made any major breakthroughs.

The 51st Army and He Zhengdao's troops took down the little devil's outer positions the night before.However, the Japanese army also assembled heavy troops in front of the two troops to defend, so that the offensive of the two troops failed to make progress.

As for the 77th Army and the 71st Army, the former basically stayed where they were, while the latter was the main attacker and fought bravely, but still failed to make a breakthrough.This means that the war may continue to be deadlocked.

The offensive here failed to achieve a major breakthrough, and the First Division of the New 67th Army, which was responsible for blocking the Japanese reinforcements, seemed to be unable to hold on.A main division has suffered serious losses, and I'm afraid it can last a day and a night at most.

Regarding the telegram from He Zhengdao, Li Zongren couldn't say anything.After all, if He Zhengdao's division is really broken, the new 67th Army that was invited can be regarded as disabled.At that time, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army will definitely have opinions.

But Li Zongren had to admit that if it were other Central Army troops, such casualties would probably have been retreated long ago.However, He Zhengdao's main division is still persisting, buying time for the attacking troops.

When he sent a telegram to inquire about the progress of the 71st Army, the chief of staff of the 71st Army who stayed at the headquarters thought for a while and said, "Call Chief Li, saying that our 87th Division has broken through the outer positions of the Japanese army and is launching an attack on the town."

Although at this time, the actual battle is almost over.But the chief of staff also knew that his army commander didn't want to pretend to be someone else's military exploits.But in the eyes of the chief of staff, they are the main attacking force, so they naturally want to share more of the fruits of victory.

Right now, the Eighth Route Army has seized a large amount of supplies from the little devil, and they have to share the bulk of their achievements in encircling and suppressing the No. 16 Division.Otherwise, the 71st Army, which has suffered heavy losses this time, might really lose its troops and military exploits!

Li Zongren, who received this telegram, naturally felt much better, and ordered the 71st Army to continue to fight again, trying to end the battle tonight.The four people sitting in the underground headquarters have already started negotiations on military exploits.

Even though He Zhengdao spoke very modestly before, when it comes to the spoils of war, He Zhengdao insisted: "General Song, this time our army can successfully capture the town, and your help is naturally very important.

It's just that everyone should be clear that we ambush the Tenth Division earlier, and this time we stopped the little devil for so long. The casualties of the troops are probably the worst since the formation of my army.

Although I was ordered to join the battle this time, I need to give my party and the Eighth Route Army headquarters an explanation for such a large number of casualties.It is imperative to recruit troops here to rebuild the troops.

Regarding the material warehouses that our army occupied before, I can only say I'm sorry everyone, I'm afraid I can't give up these trophies.You all know the reason. If the government really needs to allocate supplies, I don’t know how long it will take to rebuild the army.

And here is too far away from our army headquarters, plus our army headquarters may not be able to support anything.As far as the current situation of our army is concerned, many garrison troops can't do it with one shot, and it is even more difficult to supply supplies.

Therefore, I hope that everyone can understand my difficulties. I can't give up these materials.But I don't have any complaints about this battle.Everyone can discuss it and then report the situation to the theater. "

Hearing He Zhengdao's words, Song Xilian naturally knew that this was for profit rather than fame.But it was precisely this proposal that moved Song Xilian a little.Because their 71st Army just wants to be famous, but they don't care much about the spoils.

Even if this kind of privately negotiated agreement is a little unreliable, but the four of them sat down to confirm the matter, I believe He Zhengdao will not regret anything.What's more, the military exploits are really given to the New 67th Army, and He Zhengdao probably won't be able to handle it.

The record of encircling and annihilating the 67th Division is enough for the New 16th Army to gain a lot of benefits and reputation.If the exploits of the No. 67 Division were also taken away by the New [-]th Army, what would other troops think?

It is undoubtedly a wise choice to share interests equally!

Song Xilian, who thought about these things clearly, suddenly felt that the young He Zhengdao in front of him, who was a bit too much, handled people with sophistication and tact, just as he had imagined.It seems that this really means that there is no worthless person under the prestigious name!

Seeing that Xu Youchang and Feng Zhi'an didn't answer, Song Xilian said again: "On the battlefield, it is only natural that whoever captures the spoils belongs to whom. But this time our loss is not small. After all, we have to give it to the one above and the one below. explain.

Of course, we can understand General He's difficulties, but we also hope that General He can understand our difficulties.As General He said in advance, this time each of our troops is not easy to fight. "

With Song Xilian's words, He Zhengdao also smiled and said: "Of course! At present, my troops are moving supplies as quickly as possible. I believe that all my troops will leave the town before dawn.

At that time, I will ask Army Commander Song's troops to help guard the town.As for General Xu and General Feng, I can give up some of the weapons and ammunition seized in this battle, and I thank you for your help.
