War of Resistance

Chapter 482 Best Results
The news of the regiment leader Zhang Tianhai's accident on the front line was quickly sent back to the regiment headquarters.

Guo Qiliang believes that this news must not be delayed any longer, and must be reported to the commander of the theater immediately.

Therefore, after sending someone to inform Zhou Fangjie of the news, Guo Qiliang immediately reported the news to the commander-in-chief of the war zone, and then continued to command the troops to continue fighting the Japanese army.

As soon as the news reached the commander's department of the fifth war zone, Li Zongren frowned directly.

"Sir, I think the first regiment directly under the third theater should withdraw from the position to rest." Li Xingshu, the deputy chief of staff of the theater, said with a serious face.

"Tell me your reason." Li Zongren also had a serious expression on his face. Whether the first regiment directly under the third war zone will collapse or not is related to whether all the enemies of Yi County can stay in southern Shandong and northern Jiangsu. Pay attention to.

"This third theater is directly under the first regiment. Although it is said to be a reinforced regiment, there are only four main battalions of infantry. The cavalry battalion is a new army. It may not be useful in a war. Let me tell you, this third war zone is directly under the first regiment, and even the regiment leader was injured at the front line, which proves that this wave of offensive is not so strong. If the Japanese army is allowed to continue here Fighting, maybe it can really open a gap for the Japanese army. Therefore, it is better to withdraw the troops from the front line as a plan for the future." Li Xingshu said seriously.

"What the deputy chief of staff said is true, but the only troops in the vicinity are Zhang Zhen's 30th Division and Tian Zhennan's No. [-]th Army. I'm afraid there is something wrong with deploying these two troops." Li Zongren He looked hesitant.

"Sir, although Zhang Zhen's [-]th Division is weaker in combat effectiveness, it should be able to survive for a period of time if there is a war. But this third theater is directly under the First Regiment. If it is lost, Chief He I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to explain over there. Besides, they are just a regiment, and it is normal that they cannot effectively defend the positions west of Yi County." Li Xingshu said earnestly.

Li Zongren thought for a while, and felt that this was indeed the case. The advantage of the first regiment directly under the third war zone was that it had all kinds of arms, and the firepower of the grassroots troops was fierce. It was perfectly normal to use them for emergency rescue, but It is indeed a bit wasteful to use them as regular troops.

Therefore, Li Zongren nodded and said: "What you said is indeed very reasonable. Considering all aspects, if this army is used as a regular army, it is indeed a bit overkill. I thought about it, it is better to use them Transfer back to Xuzhou for repairs! Transfer one of Zhang Zhen's [-]th divisions to this position, and then deploy two battalions from the Second Army to defend the position, and it should be safe."

"I also think that it should be fine. At that time, the headquarters of the first regiment directly under the third theater will be transferred back to Xuzhou for reinforcements, waiting for the next step of the battle. In this way, it is no matter for the theater or the battle situation on the front line of Yi County. The best result." Li Xingshu said very seriously.

"Then implement it according to this plan, and you are responsible for following up this work." Li Zongren tapped the table with his index finger, but the fate of Zhiyi Regiment had already been decided.

"Yes, sir." Li Xingshu replied.

Following the decisions made by Li Zongren and Li Xingshu, an urgent order was immediately issued from the commander-in-chief of the fifth theater to the headquarters of the first regiment directly under the third theater.

The specific content of this telegram is--the third theater is directly under the headquarters of the first regiment, and your troops stick to the battlefield west of Yixian County, inflicting extremely high damage on the enemy. This is a commendable move, but your troops are still in combat You have already suffered heavy losses during the battle. After careful consideration by the Commander-in-Chief of the theater, it is now decided to transfer your troops back to Xuzhou for temporary repairs.The position of your army will be taken over by Zhang Zhen, the [-]th Division of Tang Enbo's army.The Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Theater sent an urgent telegram at [-]:[-] p.m. on April [-].

After seeing this position, Guo Qiliang and Zhou Fangjie looked at each other in blank dismay - it seems that only the third battalion of their regiment suffered heavy losses, right?Neither the [-]st Battalion nor the [-]th Battalion were the main positions, so the attacks they received were relatively weak. After entering the position, the [-]nd Battalion, which served as the reserve team, received certain losses due to the shelling of the Japanese army, but it was by no means It's getting to the point where you can't fight.

Apparently, the answer was already on the verge of coming out, and the Ministry of Chiefs did not trust any of the military chiefs of the Zhiyi Regiment except Zhang Tianhai.

"Old Zhou, it seems that our battle this time may be in vain. We defeated the enemy at Zhengrui, but because of Lao Zhang's accident, the entire regiment was transferred back to Xuzhou. This battle may still be a little bit Difficult..." Guo Qiliang said with a wry smile.

"No, our battle is not in vain. The Japanese army has not retreated yet. When this battle is over, we will take away all the grenadiers of the little devil, and we must not lose any of the original weapons of our regiment. Take them all back, at least one or two grenadiers should be added to each company to strengthen the combat power?" Zhou Fangjie said with a helpless smile, he learned this from Zhang Tianhai, no matter what he does, the benefits must be reaped. Arrived.

Well, let's not say that the benefits must be reaped, but at least the equipment of your own troops can't be lost, right?I don't know if this is a compliment to Zhang Tianhai's diligence and thrift in managing the house, or something else, um, yes, just being stingy.

"From this point of view, Zhang Yulin is usually doing the right thing. It seems that our family is getting richer and richer." Guo Qiliang smiled and said.

"But whether it's the number of shells or the small shells used by the grenadier, they are used less and less. I really hope that Zhang Yulin has no troubles. It's the best, otherwise we have to fight for these things. Annoyed." Zhou Fangjie said with a wry smile.

"I hope! After all, this is the best result." Guo Qiliang shook his head and said.

Looking at the frontline battlefield again, the sudden burst of artillery fire by the Japanese army not only stunned the national army, but also stunned the Japanese army even more.

After the officers and soldiers of the Second Battalion of the First Regiment entered the position, many of them were blinded by the artillery fire of the Japanese army, and four or fifty people died directly under the artillery fire.

However, as for the Japanese army, they also paid casualties, but because they had undergone more systematic training, they suffered less losses in an artillery bombardment, but they also paid 30 casualties.

The battle did not stop because of a sudden artillery fire, on the contrary, they fought more intensely.

Only Zhang Tianhai, the head of the regiment, was knocked out because of the artillery fire and was carried off the ground.

Well, to be precise, it was not just as simple as being lifted off the battlefield, but was carried back to Xuzhou, and the jeep was still used to send him back to Xuzhou for treatment.

No one thought that Zhang Tianhai, the head of the regiment, would be posthumously promoted to the rank of major general, so he was rushed back to Xuzhou to receive the best treatment!
