Anti-Japanese War: When I get promoted, the system will explode with soldiers

122nd Brigade Headquarters

Brigade Commander Wang Yuanzhu was also a little nervous. Looking at the airport in the distance, he knew that they had received an order not to take a step back and to wait for orders from the army headquarters.

"Reporting to the brigade commander, the enemy has entered combat mode. Supply personnel have begun arriving at the positions in front of us. Judging by the weapons and ammunition they are transporting, we are no match for them."

Chief of Staff Hao Yuanhe came in with a sweat on his face. He had been watching outside for a long time, but he didn't know what our commander-in-chief was thinking. He asked us to surround the airport. Although the other side only had one regiment, everyone knew the combat effectiveness of both sides. If a real fight broke out, we would be no match for them.

"We've surrounded them for such a long time, and we're only now entering combat mode. This is already quite respectful. We are no match for them. If we retreat now, although it would be embarrassing, we can save our reputation. The most important thing is to avoid being laughed at by the Japanese."

Wang Yuanzhu was born in the Northwest Army and followed Commander Han to Shandong Province, but he still understood the national justice. Provoking a civil war at such a time is completely different from the past.

What's more, Commander Li of the 72nd Army rescued so many Chinese and overseas Chinese in Batavia. Is this something that ordinary people can do? Although we have just learned about those Chinese and overseas Chinese, they are all the same species after all.

When we were in trouble, they helped us. Now they are in trouble and we can't help them. Commander Li went to help them, which was equivalent to helping us. They just came back and we stab them in the back. What kind of thing is this?

"Who says it's not? I just walked around the front lines several times, and everyone kept asking me, 'We've been training for a while just to fight a civil war, right? Shouldn't we just follow Commander Li's call and attack the Northeast to reclaim the three northeastern provinces? Commander Li has already reclaimed the Xiongnu steppes in the north, and we're just watching them thrive in Qingdao, and now we want to go to war with them? What kind of thinking is that?"

Chief of Staff Hao Yuanhe also looked depressed. It would be embarrassing to tell this matter to others. We are also seven-foot-tall men. Instead of fighting the Japanese, we confronted the heroes who fought against Japan. Telling this to others would be an insult to our ancestors.

"Is the soldiers' opposition strong?"

Wang Yuanzhu had expected this, but he had been staying in the command room recently and had not gone out to communicate with the soldiers. Judging from the expression on the chief of staff's face, the officers and soldiers outside should be very opposed to this matter.

"What do you mean by 'very strong'? It's already a bit radical now. Some people have said that if they were ordered to shoot their brothers in the 72nd Army, they would just throw their weapons away and go back home, or else defect and join the 72nd Army."

When Hao Yuanhe said this, he did not mean to blame his subordinates. Instead, he had the same idea in his mind. From the northwest to here, he had been fighting against his own people every day, and there was no benefit at all.

Now they are the heroes who fought against the Japanese, and we have to confront them militarily here. What a joke, tell everyone...

Bullshit! Too embarrassed to even say it!

What some soldiers said is right. When you return home, don't say that you are from the 122nd Brigade. We can't afford to lose face.

"Commander, you have to be mentally prepared, or you should go out for a walk. In the situation just now, those guys were not just talking. Judging from the expressions on their faces, if we really wanted to fight, I estimate that most of them would have run away before we even started."

Hao Yuanhe emphasized again that what he said just now was not a joke. Not only the low-level soldiers said this, but some officers also meant the same thing.

"Report to the brigade commander, there are sounds of airplanes coming from the airport across the way."

After hearing this report, the two men went outside from the command center. They heard a roar coming from the airport, which meant that the enemy planes were about to take off. In less than a minute, two planes took off. Hao Yuanhe could see clearly through the telescope that these were fighter planes without bombs.

They should be out for reconnaissance. We haven't even seen an airplane rack here, but they send out an average of two airplanes every hour for reconnaissance. The previous wave of planes hasn't returned yet, and this wave of planes has already taken off. If we have to talk about weapons that can deal with these planes, it's probably the light machine guns in the hands of the soldiers. Unfortunately, we don't have enough bullets for our light machine guns. If they really bomb us, we don't know how to fight back except getting beaten.

"Tell the army headquarters about the situation here and ask them to consider it carefully."

Wang Yuanzhu bit his lip and said, "The one-hour deadline is about to end, and the headquarters is probably still engaged in a quarrel. You have all the time to chat nonsense there, but we are about to face a war, a war that we can't win at all."

At this moment, inside the airport, Wang Guohai was sitting in a jeep and had inspected the surrounding positions. The ammunition of each unit had also been distributed. When the order was given, our 23 tanks would lead the way, and 59 armored vehicles would follow.

Even though there is an infantry brigade in front of us, under the attack of these armored units and the dozens of 105mm artillery pieces around it, this infantry brigade should not be able to hold out.

Victory was supposed to be a foregone conclusion, but Wang Guohai was not very happy. We were willing to be at the front when fighting foreigners, but what good would it be if we won in a fight among our own people?

Why don't these people on the other side understand? You're no match for us. Take advantage of this moment before the battle begins and return to your original location. We're keeping our distance. But time is ticking. If you don't retreat in an hour, don't blame us for being rude.

Wang Guohai and his men couldn't understand it either. The reason we set up this airport was not to target you. From the time the airport was built to now, except for conducting surveillance and reconnaissance on you, our planes have never flown over your military camp.

The only combat mission is to bomb Liaodong. Are you relatives of those devils in Liaodong?

It doesn't look like it. If they are not related to those people, why did they come here to surround us? We used to keep to ourselves. Although we were not that close to each other, we also did our own things.

It really shouldn’t have turned out like this!

The phone rang...

Calls came in from the provincial capital and Qingdao...
