Anti-Japanese War: My strategist joins the game and awakens the small map!
Chapter 413 Our Home is Back
Dawn arrives and the sky is clear.
The raging fire was gone, leaving only billowing smoke. The sound of gunfire had faded, and only a few soldiers were left cleaning up the battlefield.
The entire Changling Mountain is no longer green, and is covered with scorched earth.
On a hillside of Changling Mountain.
"Lin Brigade, the supplies we brought this time are mainly artillery shells, as well as winter supplies, because they need to be stored in the rear for the battle."
Luo Xuhui and Lin Tianchen walked on the battlefield and introduced the supplies they brought.
These were all brought all the way from Jin by their 35th Division. People could be as heavy as they wanted, but the things had to be delivered. This was the order they received before setting off.
Lin Tianchen nodded in understanding. He had to say that he was really impressed by Yan Laoxi. The arrival of these supplies not only made up for the reduction in artillery shells, but also really made their wintering conditions better.
The sense of logistics also allowed Lin Tianchen to truly reduce many of his worries.
"When the time comes, please thank Commander Yan for me." Lin Tiancheng meant what he said sincerely.
Luo Xuhui quickly waved his hand: "If there's a chance, I'll definitely pass on the message."
After all, he has witnessed the intensity of this battle, and he believes that the intensity of the next battle will definitely not be low. Whether he can go back is still an unknown.
So, Luo Xuhui didn't dare to guarantee anything.
"By the way, does Jincheng need reinforcements? Our 35th Division can..." Luo Xuhui glanced at the Tiger Brigade on the battlefield, and the fatigue in his eyes could not be concealed.
It was obvious that they had not had a rest for a long time during the battle with the Japanese.
As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Jiantang and Li Weiguo looked at Lin Tianchen with some concern.
"Brigade Commander, our Second Regiment can support Jincheng again." Li Weiguo said in a serious tone.
"Our first regiment is fine, or we can go with the second regiment first." Wang Jiantang echoed at this time.
Jincheng must not be lost. After all, the battle in Changling Mountain is for the entire Jincheng.
Now they have finally managed to eliminate more than 30,000 elite Kwantung Army troops. If Jincheng is lost, their battle results will be much lower.
After hearing this, Lin Tianchen couldn't help but shook his head. Changling Mountain was not more than 30 kilometers away from Jincheng, so he had some understanding of the battle situation in Jincheng.
There was no need for them to return for emergency support. The Japanese had even planned to retreat. The soldiers in front of them looked tired, especially those from the Second and First Regiments. Many of them had bloodshot eyes.
The troops must rest now, otherwise their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced and the losses will be even greater.
Moreover, this time the Japanese commander was obviously an opponent at a very high strategic level. The victory or defeat of Jincheng had already been decided at Changling Mountain. If the Japanese defended Jincheng at this time, they would undoubtedly be courting their own destruction.
"Li Yunlong said that the Japanese in Jincheng are retreating, and the bombers are covering their retreat. You should let the soldiers rest and send the seriously wounded to Pingtuo Mountain." Lin Tianchen said seriously.
This was their largest and most exhausting expedition since the Northern Expedition.
The Second Regiment's long-distance raid relied entirely on willpower to persevere.
People are not machines. Moreover, after this round of firecrackers, some gun barrels must be replaced. This is true for machines, let alone people.
"There is a forest belt four kilometers south of Changling Mountain. Let's go there to rest and set up a guard post." Lin Tianchen thought for a while and said, although bombers appeared in Jincheng, we cannot help but be on guard.
"Yes!"
After hearing this, Wang Jiantang and others nodded heavily.
"Chief Engineer Luo." Lin Tianchen gave an order and turned to look at Luo Xuhui.
"The logistics regiment suffered heavy casualties. We hope the 35th Division can help transport the supplies to Pingtuo Mountain."
"Leave it to us." Luo Xuhui nodded and responded.
"Thank you." Lin Tianchen's tense nerves gradually relaxed. After observing the sky for a long time using the visual map, the bombers did not arrive.
Luo Xuhuiyun did not feel uncomfortable doing logistics work. Instead, he was very excited. A full 30,000 Kwantung troops were annihilated here in half a day and a night.
If it weren't for the smell of blood, he would have thought it was a dream.
"It should have been done a long time ago." Luo Xuhui walked on the road, and although his steps were fast, his mind couldn't help but think of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army avoiding fighting and retreating all the way.
Even the 33rd Division, which was sent by the Tiger Guards to capture Ping'an County and fight in Yuancheng, was submissive throughout.
Thinking of the superior who had avoided fighting before, if it weren't for his own status, there was something he really couldn't help but say.
..........
.....
Jincheng.
Inside the Japanese combat command room.
Some Japanese soldiers have already started to clean up in a hurry, burning what needs to be burned and moving what can be taken away quickly.
The sound of gunfire was getting closer and closer, and some vibrations caused some maps in the command room to shake.
In front of the tightly packed map that was already covered with lines and marked with large and small numbers, Mijiro Tani's face fell.
After that telegram asking for help, there was no further telegram from his own direct subordinates.
In other words, the Guanjiu Division is very likely to be destroyed.
At this time, Mijiro Tani was not as red-faced and crazy as before.
In the battle of Jincheng, he knew that he had been defeated, and completely defeated.
In the battle of Guiyang Mountain, he did not underestimate the enemy and took it very seriously. However, his 30,000 troops were sent in stages and were stuck outside the mountain, resulting in a great defeat. He learned his lesson.
Did they not pay enough attention to Jincheng? Did they not take precautions against the troops heading north? Did they not monitor the various railway lines?
None of these are true...but the Tiger Brigade hit his weaknesses, making it difficult for him to cope.
"Tiger Run Brigade..."
Mijiro Tani kept muttering to himself, his eyes fixed on the map that had not yet been disassembled.
Since the appearance of the Tiger Brigade, Mijiro Tani felt that every step he took was correct, but the ending told him that every step was wrong.
The purpose of transferring the 9th Division of Guan from the northern border to Chaocheng was to resist the troops advancing from the north, and secondly to move south to encircle Jincheng. At worst, the troops of the Huben Brigade could be surrounded and annihilated at Changling Mountain.
But he still couldn't figure out why there were so many battle fronts, and the Tiger Brigade was pushed to the limit, but the string just didn't break.
Even Lin Tianchen was in Changbai Mountain, not Changling Mountain.
But the ending was unacceptable to Mijiro Tani.
He even wondered if the result would be different if he had taken the initiative at the beginning and let Guan Jiushi attack Pingtuo Mountain directly without any cover or backup plan?
Or concentrate the troops to attack Huludao, or go all out to encircle and suppress Lin Tianchen...
Every time he thought he could cut the taut rope, he would be strangled to death by the rope that was about to break.
Mijiro Tani looked at the map calmly, his face expressionless, and his eyes revealed a strong sense of helplessness.
"Sir, we need to evacuate..." Kudo Sanbon said with his head lowered, not daring to look him in the eye.
As soon as these words came out, Mijiro Tani stood up straight and looked at the two locations of Jincheng and Shengjing on the map. The situation in Jincheng has been determined. If they get stuck in it again, the gains will outweigh the losses. The Guanjiu Division is an example.
What they need most now is time to consolidate the rear, wait for the Kwantung Army to move south, and then take back everything they have lost.
Mijiro Tani thought for a long time, then picked up a pen on the table and drew a line directly from Jincheng Port connecting Jincheng, Chaocheng, and Aka...Fengcheng.
Then he threw the pen directly into the map.
"Guard the area south of Shengjing. Leave the map here."
After leaving a word, Mijiro Tani turned and left. The commanders in the command room looked at this thread and everyone looked at each other.
Everyone knows that this line is for them to see. The place that has been operating for more than ten years needs to be governed by dividing the line.
This is even more for the Huben Brigade to see, as Jincheng and Shengjing are the boundary line.
Kudo Sanbon looked at the line with a hint of unwillingness in his eyes, but he quickly followed the pace of Tani Mijiro.
For a time, the Japanese soldiers east of Jincheng began to retreat on a large scale, and they didn't even have time to take away some weapons and supplies.
However, the retreat was orderly, with bombers in the sky providing constant cover. The large-scale retreat of the Japanese was clearly visible inside and outside Jincheng.
Especially in Pingtuo Mountain, when they saw the Japanese soldiers in the east of the city retreating on a large scale, some figures were already standing on the bare hilltops, their eyes full of excitement.
"Mr. Lin, thank you very much for this batch of medical supplies."
On the top of the scorched earth mountain, Xu Lan came to Lin Huchun, her tone full of gratitude.
Now, she is a member of the Tiger Brigade. This time, Lin Huchun made a trip back and forth to deliver a large number of medical supplies here. How could Xu Lan not be grateful?
Especially after the war, these medicines arrived at the right time.
"Do the best I can." Lin Huchun held a cane in his hand and stared at Jincheng, his old eyes somewhat sad.
The scenes of the Japanese retreat in Jincheng made him very excited, but excitement did not mean joy. His former hometown was right in front of him, and the home where he had lived together was now in ruins and the people had left forever.
Lin Huchun's heart is complicated. He has always hoped that his grandson can stand up, but now, he can't see the yard he once had come back.
"Our home is back." Lin Huchun murmured softly, his voice so soft that only he could hear it.
The distant Jincheng is now back, but the lost people will never come back.
Lin Huchun was very sad, but he did not regret it, because the entire Jincheng in front of him was called a city, but there was almost no house to be seen in the west and south of the city, and even the outline had disappeared.
There were only bomb craters everywhere and the ground was filled with blood and flesh. The area in the city was already piled with corpses, and life was worthless.
Among these sacrificed soldiers, each one was the pillar of his family, and each one was a cherished child by his parents.
Their journey is not over yet.
Xu Lan, who was standing by, knew some of Lin Huchun's affairs and understood some of his emotions, but she just didn't know how to comfort him.
On the way to northwest Shanxi, she witnessed too many separations and deaths.
In the back mountain of Heiyun Village, she had seen tombstones like a forest.
Before her, she looked at the devastated city.
"I'm finally back." Xu Lan knew better than anyone how difficult all of this was.
She was worried in Pudong, the Qingyun Gang was wiped out, and Xu Jingqiang chose to become a soldier of the Tiger Brigade. The soldiers fought for the city back with their lives on the front line.
The oath made outside Heiyun Village is being fulfilled step by step, and hope has become a reality.
She is witnessing and participating.
