Chapter 700 The Fruit of Victory

Removing the threat from the main force of the Japanese army brought more than just psychological pressure.

More importantly, you can enjoy the feast unscrupulously.

This is a special benefit for the winners.

Winter is cold, but there are more dead trees than usual.

Except for a few guard infantry companies, the soldiers of the other companies, under the urging of the company commanders, were not busy harvesting the fruits of victory, but went to collect firewood first.

Soon, piles of bonfires were lit in the valley. If someone stood on the peak several miles away and looked over, it would be like a sky full of stars.

The brilliance is refreshing, especially under such a sky without much pollution.

It's just that it was a magnificent scene that only the Chinese scouts could see, and the Japanese never wanted to see it.

With a radius of several kilometers, the short-legged race is the only species that has lost the power to breathe.

The warm yellow light dispels the coldness of winter nights and illuminates the entire dark valley. The bonfires almost every 20 meters ensure the brightness in the valley.

All the bodies of the Japanese soldiers who were killed were carried to one end of the river valley, densely packed all over the river beach.

After counting, not counting those outside the valley, there were 1532 corpses in the entire valley, including the captain of the Japanese Army's General Commander, that is, Takeuchi Yunzan, and the corpses of 4 majors and 16 captains. When they were found, there were nearly a hundred low-level officers at the rank of lieutenant, second lieutenant, and chief Cao.

Because most of the Japanese military officers chose to replace their general uniforms and military ranks, and because of the cold weather, many Sichuan soldiers would choose to take off the Japanese military uniforms and wear them in their own uniforms to keep out the cold when they found that the Japanese military uniforms were still intact. Identity is extremely difficult to ascertain.

However, Zhuang Shisan, who was in charge of counting the number of enemies killed and captured by the enemy, was resourceful enough. He judged that the Japanese officer would do the same thing as his superiors by using the military rank badge and certificate that Takeuchi Yunzan put in the pocket lining, as early as moving the corpses Before, the entire army was ordered to check all the materials on the corpse. Clothes can be taken away, but the military rank collar badge must be pinned to the waistband of the corpse for the purpose of counting.

Therefore, many majors, captains, lieutenants, and second lieutenants are actually naked and have a pair of big feet, but they are placed on the beach with their hidden military rank badges pinned to their belts. This is quite a funny scene. , Was jokingly called "belt-level officer" by the soldiers of the Independent Battalion.

More importantly, except for His Excellency Takeuchi Yunshan, who was carried over by Qin Goro and Tudou, who was fairly well dressed, this group of Japanese officers who were identified as Da Zuo and Lieutenant by the collar badges on their trouser belts were neatly placed in stone. On the beach, Tantai Mingyue set up a camera and took a picture of the scene that would shame the entire Japanese army in the future.

The accompanying text on the photo is the joke of the officers and soldiers of the Independent Battalion, "One of the belt-level Japanese officers killed in the Guangde Battle!"

However, the photo was ordered by Tang Dao not to appear in any newspapers within two months.

Perhaps only Tantai Mingyue, who had communicated with Tang Dao, roughly understood his intentions, and he was afraid that the Japanese army would carry out bloody revenge in shame and anger.

Yes, Tantai Mingyue has guessed most of Tang Dao's thoughts, but she is not Tang Dao after all.Because only Tang Dao understood that the disaster was inevitable, and what he was afraid of was not revenge on the soldiers and civilians in Jinling City, which the Japanese army was about to conquer, but the current Japanese occupied area.

The Japanese army only occupied a province in the southeast, but all the areas in Hua, BJ, and Tianjin have fallen into the enemy's hands, and now they are starting to aggressively attack Jin, and the Guozaki detachment belongs to the fifth division that is attacking Jin. .

If Seishiro Itagaki, the war butcher, carried out a bloodbath on the occupied area because of this, then he would become a sinner in history.Only when the international community’s public opinion on the brutality of the Japanese army reached its peak, and the Japanese military headquarters, which was still concerned about the international public opinion, ordered to avoid such incidents as much as possible. This kind of extremely harmful and more insulting photos can be used to attack the Japanese invaders .

After all, it was not in China that this photo that would make all Japanese generals vomit blood was first published, but after more than half a year, China and Japan had entered a stalemate stage, and it was first published on the front page of the "Niuyo Times" in the United States.

A group of naked Japanese officers with their military ranks pinned to their waistbands grimaced and grinned in an ugly concave death posture. It is said that the commander of the North China Dispatch Army, General Hisashi Terauchi, and the Commander of the Central China Dispatch Army, General Yan Junliu, were separated by a few meters. Thousands of miles overturned the dining table together.

Kunizaki, who was originally transferred back to Pingjin and refrigerated because of a defeat on the battlefield, was dragged directly from his residence to the headquarters of the dispatched army and got a big mouthful. That should be the first company commander on the Chinese battlefield Ten Japanese generals with big mouths.

It is said that the hands of His Excellency General Kotobuki in the temple were swollen for three days because of this.

As for Kunisaki Teng, the unlucky kid who got slapped in the mouth, no one knows what his face looks like, but he has since disappeared from the Japanese military circles, and he doesn't know where he was dispatched to clean the toilet.

In addition to keeping the appearance of a group of Japanese officers who died and donated their clothes a secret, Tang Dao also spread a white lie to the army headquarters hundreds of meters away after the battle.

The 21st Army Headquarters is still very concerned about Tang Dao and the 145th Division of the Sichuan Army. It sends telegrams almost three times a day to inquire about the battle between the two units and the Kunisaki Detachment.

It's not that I care more about the 145th Division and the Tangdao Independent Battalion, but because of the current battlefield situation, the two units that have successively blocked the Japanese invaders in Jiepai Village and Mouse Mountain and achieved results have become the face of all the Sichuan troops who swore to come out of Sichuan.

Faced with the ardent concern of the big brothers, Tang Dao responded half-truth and half-false, and specially sent a telegram to the 145th Division after the ambush in the river valley, saying: "Our troops fought fiercely with the Japanese army in the Guangde Mountains, and one part was besieged by the main force of the Japanese army. In order to relieve our army's difficulties, we fought fiercely with the Japanese reinforcements in the afternoon, but the Japanese army was so numerous that the battle was at a stalemate."

Of course, the division headquarters of the 145th Division immediately forwarded the Tangdao telegram to the Group Army Command, and the Group Army Command immediately ordered the 145th Division to tell the Independent Battalion: "Overcome difficulties and do our best to deal with the enemy. If the enemy is powerful, then find the right time The camera is evacuated, the headquarters should contact the minister's department, and come to support with the strength of the air force."

The words are very nice, not only affirmed and encouraged the Independence Battalion, but also comforted them, and even allowed the camera to retreat, but just listen to these words.

The so-called support from fighter planes is just a fantasy. The air force, not to mention that there are not a few fighter planes left, and even if there are, they are all evacuated hundreds of kilometers away. There is no way to support the main battlefield in Jinling, and southern Anhui can be taken care of there. A small battlefield in the mountains?
But the reason for Tang Dao's report was not for any support, what he needed was to let those big guys know that he was still fighting.

Because, if the bosses know it, some people will know it too.

Sure enough, when the independent battalion began to happily take pictures of a group of dead ghost officers of the Japanese army, the information that the Tangdao independent battalion was still fighting was already on the desk of Ushishima Sadao.

The huge spy network that the Japanese spent ten years laying down once again made a 'great contribution', helping Tang Dao complete the most inconspicuous but also the most important step on the entire battlefield.

Tactical Deception!

Kunizaki, who has been scratching his heart all the time, finally received the news that made him feel at ease an hour after nightfall.

The infantry unit of Takeuchi Yunshan held back the main force of the Chinese people so that they could not come to rescue the trapped elites. He could continue to wait for the day to come and swallow the Chinese in one gulp.

This is also the telegram he quickly replied to Ushishima Sadao and Yanagawa Hirasuke. Anyway, the Chinese have said so, how can he be worthy of the hard work of the spies if he doesn't brag?

Therefore, the high-level officials of both China and Japan were fooled by the joint efforts of two middle-level military officers from China and Japan. No one knew that in the mountainous area of ​​southern Anhui, more than 2000 Japanese soldiers were turned upside down, and the last residual temperature of the corpses was also in the cold winter wind. Let cool completely.

In the warm yellow light of piles of bonfires, the Independent Battalion began to enjoy the fruits of victory.

After the corpses of the Japanese soldiers were counted one by one and searched upside down, like their ghost officers, where would it be cool to stay there.

The important thing is that the weapons and supplies scattered all over the place are dazzling.

Especially for a bunch of hard-working people who don't even let go of the Japanese military uniforms!
What?The [-]-type rifle shoots far and accurately, brothers, come and get it, no, no, it's nothing.

It's not because its performance is worse than that made by Hanyang or the old sockets, but it's just too much.

It is not enough for one soldier to memorize one stroke, but it takes one person to memorize two strokes.

No matter how expensive things are, once they are too much, they will be worthless. This is human nature.

The victorious soldiers bundled the [-]-type rifles like a pile of firewood sticks, and randomly discarded them beside the campfire, fully interpreting the "ugliness" of human nature.

But the smiling officers didn't scold the soldiers whose vision suddenly became higher.

They're all so busy right now.
