Rise from eight hundred.

Chapter 934 This is the glory of the whole army!

Of course, not all Japanese soldiers who wished to surrender were kneeling.

For example, Tang Dao gave the supreme commander of the Japanese army who asked to surrender the right to stand.

However, since the highest commander of the Japanese army, Goto Koshinan, died in fear of crime, there have been no officers above the rank of assistant officer, except for a few second lieutenants.

Therefore, Second Lieutenant Kuroki Komatsu held the saber of Goto Koko Minami, the captain of the 108th Infantry Regiment who "suicide in fear of crime", and asked to surrender.

It is of course a good thing for the Japanese to surrender in this way, but this big and good thing posed a big and small problem to the four regiment commanders on the scene.

In the absence of Brigadier Cheng, the supreme commander of the Chinese army at the scene, it is a question of who will be the surrender officer of the Chinese military.

The Chinese and Japanese armies have been at war for a year, and it has been a long time of 8 months in terms of time. The Japanese army, which has always had the upper hand, rarely surrenders. Even if there are, they are sporadic soldiers on the local battlefield.

It is the first time since the start of the war that nearly 200 Japanese troops surrendered collectively. It is an absolute honor to be able to accept the surrender on behalf of the entire army.

In other words, this is no longer a personal honor, but belongs to the commander's unit.

Especially for the three members of the 921 Division, letting them give up the glory that belongs to the 921 Division is even more uncomfortable than killing them.

It's just that Tang Tuanzuo was asked to come forward during the negotiation, but in the end he had to fight for the surrender. This kind of inhumaneness can't be justified anywhere.

The three colonel heads whose average age never exceeded 30 were a little silent for a while, when the officers and soldiers were infinitely jubilant.

"The chief is still discussing the next battle plan with the head of the division headquarters. We can't make it to the front line for a while. The four of us can't attend the surrender ceremony together. I think it's better to let Brother Tang do it for you!" The head of the 771 regiment finally broke silence.

Although this person looks a little honest and stable in daily life, in fact, wood also has great wisdom.

First of all, he knew that the "local tyrant" Tang Dao came up to send guns and cannons was very valued by the head of the brigade, and in this battle, he led the elite troops to block the retreat of the Japanese army with the respect of the leader of the regiment. It is not an exaggeration to let him enjoy the glory of first-class merit.

Furthermore, Tang Dao is not alone among the various ministries participating in this battle.

Wang Xiaoqiang's violent temper does not obey anyone, but he is very docile to Tang Dao. Although the young leader of the 769 regiment is young and vigorous, he also miraculously approves of Tang Dao. Both of his friends are like this. He If they don't take the initiative, the Four Elements Group will still say that their 683 Brigade is petty.

"It's rare for Lao Xu to be generous for a while today!" Wang Xiaoqiang looked at his old comrade-in-arms, with a knowing smile on his face, but his mouth was unforgiving. "Brother, hurry up, lest this old man will regret it later."

"Okay, I agree with Commander Xu's proposal, and let Commander Tang accept the surrender of the Japanese invaders as the chief representative of the various ministries participating in the war!" The young commander of the 769 regiment also nodded.

"Several brothers, I know your thoughts, thank you for your recognition of me and the officers and soldiers of the Four Elements Regiment, but I personally think that the glory of victory in this battle belongs to the officers and soldiers of the army participating in the battle, and none of them deserves to enjoy this An honor!" Tang Dao shook his head and made another suggestion. "We might as well be like this."

Tang Dao knew that of course he could not refuse this kind of honor, and he and the Four Elements Group fully deserved this honor.

But he can't enjoy it to himself!

In this battle, the 769th Regiment never sacrificed less than 500 soldiers, which was almost the strength of an infantry battalion. They paid an unimaginable price.

Although the 771st and 772nd regiments did not sacrifice so much, they are the leading force on the entire battlefield. Without them deterring the two wings, this Japanese army has already devoted all its strength to breaking through the frontal defense line of the 769th regiment. The regiment rushed to complete the final encirclement?
More importantly, this battle was not completed under the command of Tang Dao. It was under the genius conception and decision of the brigade commander of the 683 Journey that the battle was finally successful.

It can be said that this honor does not belong to that person here, nor to that infantry regiment, but to all the Chinese soldiers present.

They are all qualified to participate in this surrender ceremony.

The queue is composed of the 921rd Regiment and the [-]th Regiment of the [-] Division, each of which is dispatched from a part near here, and they will observe the ceremony!As a representative of the whole army, he watched the whole surrender process.

In this surrender ceremony, the commanders of both sides will not hand over the command swords of the defeated side before the two armies as usual, but the representatives of the Japanese side will walk through the queue where the Chinese military representatives stand.

Representatives of these outstanding Chinese soldiers will use their proud military posture to look down on their battle results, and will cheer the slogan of victory with their commanders at the first time!
'The Japanese devil, in front of Lao Tzu, is just like a dog! 'This is the reward Tang Dao gave these outstanding Chinese soldiers!
That kind of spiritual pleasure will far exceed the so-called material rewards!

Hearing Tang Dao's suggestion, the eyes of the three regiment leaders all brightened. Although this kind of surrender ceremony is a bit cumbersome, it emphasizes the various ministries participating in the war, rather than just highlighting a certain person. Great incentives were given to the officers and soldiers of the various ministries.

"Yes!" Brigadier Cheng, who was busy at the brigade headquarters in the rear, received the report from the front line, with a smile on his face, he waved his hand in agreement.

The order was conveyed immediately, and each regiment was allocated 100 places, and then distributed to the nearby infantry companies. Although they were told that there would be photos, in the words of Tang Dao Tang Tuanzuo: "This time, it is not a welcome ceremony. It is to represent the whole army to see how the little devil surrendered to the old man. We don't play any tricks, we can do whatever we want. The only request is to hold the old man's chest high and let the little devil Look, what is a Chinese soldier!"

Although the Battle of Beiganling was over, it did not mean the end of the entire battle. The troops on guard in the direction of Lucheng were more than 2500 meters away. The Four Elements Regiment even sent elite cavalry and special forces to Lucheng.

There is no telling when another big war will start, and there is not so much time left for the Chinese army to hold any surrender ceremony.

Tantai Mingyue, who was still in charge of treating the wounded behind the mountain, and her precious camera were brought to the scene by the cavalry on horseback, and the various ministries of the Fourth Regiment also selected personnel to participate in the surrender ceremony.

The standards of the participating personnel are almost the same as never before, that is, the brave officers and soldiers of each company in this battle.

Because of the limited number of places, the infantry companies and platoon leaders voluntarily gave up this opportunity and left the glory to their brothers.

For example, the officers and soldiers of the Four Elements Regiment who participated in this short surrender ceremony were basically from the guard company and the Seventh Company on the battlefield that blocked the retreat of the Japanese army most fiercely in the previous World War I. However, there was not a single officer, and all of them were composed of soldiers.

Most of them are wounded soldiers, either with bandages hanging on their arms, or with bandages on their heads, and even soldiers with injured lower limbs carried by stretcher soldiers. The heart-wrenching pain seemed a little pale, but everyone's eyes were full of radiance.

Because these ordinary soldiers knew that witnessing the Japanese commander handing over the command knife in front of them would be something they could brag about for the rest of their lives.

But obviously, this is not the patent of the Four Elements Regiment. The three infantry regiments of the 921 Division are almost identical, and wounded soldiers account for a considerable part.

Although they do not belong to the same sequence, but seeing what the Four Elements Regiment did, the 921 Division, from top to bottom, had a great sense of identity with this army that fought side by side with it, and this sense of identity even went far beyond the When Tang Dao presented a large number of weapons to the 683 Brigade on behalf of the Four Elements Group.

Very strange psychology, but it is real.

The reason is nothing more than that the so-called unity of officers and soldiers is nothing more than that!Such troops are extremely reliable comrades-in-arms.

Perhaps even Tang Dao himself didn't know that it was from this moment that he and the Four Elements were truly accepted by this army.

Of course, Tang Dao didn't do it deliberately, and he doesn't need to do it deliberately. The army he was in in his previous life was just a continuation of the army in front of him, and since he became the supreme officer of the Four Elements Group, he has already Subtly implanting some genes of that future army into the Four Elements Regiment.

Comrades are the ones who are most worthy of giving their backs to him on the battlefield!With such a concept as the support, those officers who are already company commanders and platoon leaders will chill the hearts of their brothers for the sake of mere glory?
This sunny spring afternoon, for Second Lieutenant Kuroki Komatsu, who had been terrified for a long time and finally waited until he could go to hand in the command knife to the Chinese commander, it was definitely an afternoon of extreme inner suffering.

And this road of hundreds of meters that can usually be covered in a few minutes is definitely the longest hundreds of meters he has walked in his life. According to his post-war memoirs, it is even more than that. When he returned to the battle, his heart was constantly churning with demon thoughts.

Because, he saw a Chinese army completely different from what he knew.

And before that, even if he had admitted that his side was defeated, he attributed the reason to that idiot Goto Koshinan's poor command, and the fact that the Chinese side had assembled far more troops than his side and his side's unfamiliarity with the geographical environment.

From the bottom of his heart, he still firmly believes that with the same strength, it is impossible for the imperial infantry to be defeated.

But when he walked through the road of surrender composed of many Chinese soldiers, a certain solidity deep in his heart was shattered bit by bit.

The Chinese soldiers lined up from the kneeling Japanese soldiers.

Four hundred Chinese soldiers stood upright, forming two rows like green pines, leaving a three-meter-wide aisle in the middle!

As soldiers, in terms of appearance, age composition and equipment, they undoubtedly do not have the qualifications to form an elite army.

Some of them wore blue military uniforms, some wore gray military uniforms, and some military uniforms were too late to be dyed. Some of them were teenagers under 16 years old, some were young in their 20s, and some were middle-aged over 40 years old.

And the guns in their hands include [-]-type rifles, Czech made, Hanyang made, long guns and short guns, almost all kinds. This kind of messy equipment standard is completely impossible to exist in the Japanese army sequence. Soldiers with enough military experience know that this will lead to the collapse of the logistics supply system, and it is a joke to want to fight for a long time.

But it was such an army that defeated the Imperial Army. How did they do it?Kuroki Komatsu was in a daze at that moment.

But as he keeps going, he seems to be starting to find the answer!

Yes, they are old and young, let alone their weapons and equipment, and even their uniforms cannot be of the same color. They don't have the courage that a strong army should have.

But, they really do.

Bravery, not in military uniforms, not in their straw sandals with bare toes, not in those various firearms.

In their faces, in their bright eyes, on their high heads.

The faces of these soldiers who have just finished the battle still have gunpowder smoke and dust on their faces, their bodies are still stained with blood, the steel guns in their hands seem to be still steaming, and many of them are even sitting on stretchers
They should have been lying on the hospital bed, struggling with the pain, but they were still here, proudly looking at their defeated opponents, watching them humbly strive for survival in front of themselves.

This is the privilege that Chinese commanders give to their subordinates, because they are strong enough, and because they deserve it all!
Such Chinese soldiers are certainly worthy of awe!
Especially seeing their disdainful eyes towards him, the defeated general, Kuroki Komatsu trembled even more!
If all Chinese soldiers are like this, no matter how many troops the empire invests, can it really win this war?He kept asking himself this question in his heart.

But the answer really made the second lieutenant of the Japanese army desperate. The empire can invest 2 million or 5 million with all its strength, but the Chinese whose population is more than six times that of the empire may be able to invest 10 million or 20 million.
Such a group of people, even if they have fire sticks in their hands, can the imperial army kill them all?

Tang Dao was standing at the end of the queue, waiting for Hei Mu Xiaosong, who was constantly being psychologically destroyed and walking heavily.

"Your Excellency, please accept our surrender!" Kuroki Komatsu bent down humbly, and raised the command knife of a certain chief who was still stained with blood above his head.

"I accept your surrender on behalf of our department. If you fully cooperate, our department will treat you as a normal prisoner of war!" Tang Dao stretched out his hand to take the command saber in Heimu Xiaosong's hand, and replied formulaically.

As far as he himself is concerned, he welcomes this group of Japanese soldiers to come and not cooperate at any time, so he has a reason to kill these guys. It is really a waste of food for nearly 200 people, even if he has already thought about it. Well, it's just two porridges every morning and evening, the kind that can clearly illuminate the shadows of people.

But Tang Dao also knew that he didn't want these prisoners of war, but the 921st Division wanted them. The "Anti-War Alliance" that already had a framework was just waiting for these guys to enrich it!

Even though the [-]th Group Army is using a soft policy, it is not a powerful stick to kill these surrendered soldiers, but all kinds of principles are poured down every day, and it is absolutely gentle.The simple and rude brainwashing indoctrination of Japanese high-level officials is really nothing in front of those big bosses.

Tang Dao knew that in the future, the "Japanese Anti-War Alliance" formed by the 5th Army Group would continue to grow and develop, and before the victory of the Great Patriotic War, it would become an organization with 20 branches and 1000 branches with more than [-] members.

That's not to say that they just waved the flag and shouted everywhere. Most of them not only participated in the production and construction of the base area, but also directly devoted themselves to the battle and became the famous "Japanese Tobachi"!
That is still not many Japanese soldiers were captured. If according to the current speed, one hundred and eighty prisoners were captured in World War I, Tang Dao even dared to believe that it would not be a problem to have ten thousand "Japanese Tuba" in this time and space.

After Tang Dao took over the commanding saber, Kuroki Komatsu still maintained his bowing posture, but stepped back three meters, showing his surrendering posture!

This is the Japanese, who show the details vividly in everything they do, even if it is surrender!
Seeing that Tang Dao had taken over the commanding saber of the Japanese soldiers, the Chinese soldiers standing in two rows couldn't help their chests rising and falling, and their breathing couldn't help but become heavy.

That's because they are waiting, waiting for Tang Dao to represent all Chinese soldiers, and hold up this trophy that symbolizes victory.

They can't wait to taste this fruit of victory that belongs to them!
At this moment, Erya, who was staying in the distance, ran over in a hurry, reported to the three regiment leaders behind Tang Dao, and whispered in Tang Dao's ear, who was listening.

The Chinese soldiers present couldn't help but thump in their hearts. Could it be that something unexpected happened?

Heimu Xiaosong, who was still bent over and didn't dare to look up, had retreated three meters, was a little far away from Tang Dao, and couldn't hear the whispers of Tang Dao's messengers, only heard the keywords of 'Lucheng' and 'Japanese invaders'.

As a former Japanese soldier, this man couldn't help but feel elated. Could it be that His Excellency the division chief has regrouped his army to kill here?But what followed was that there was no joy left, and there was a burst of fear that surged up.

If the imperial army gathers a large army to kill them, I am afraid that the most tragic thing is not the Chinese here, but their descendants.

The imperial army won, and the defeated Chinese will definitely take their soldiers down. Even if they take ten thousand steps back and say that they have kept their promises, Kuroki Komatsu will not be naive to think that His Excellency, the division commander, will forgive them for their troubles. The guy who was forced to surrender in a desperate situation.

In particular, he is not the only one who knows the inside story of a certain chief who "sworn to death". At least dozens of people participated in it, and hundreds of people "watched melons".

To put it bluntly, if the Chinese win, he can live, even if he is very humble, but if his own people win, he will die.

Then let the Chinese win!The already 'degenerate' Second Lieutenant Kuroki Komatsu went further and further to the blackened place, and his heart was full of such expectations!
This time, God Amaterasu should have heard the thoughts of this not-so-pious citizen, and also satisfied him.

From an angle that the bent Kuroki Komatsu could not see, the faces of the three commanders of the 921 Division were filled with uncontrollable smiles.

That smile was about to flow out of their faces, even the old Xu of the 683 regiment known as the "rock" of the 771 brigade was the same.

Because, this battle can be completely declared over!

The news of victory can also be announced to the entire army at the moment when the Japanese army's saber is raised!
