my bright sword career

Chapter 361

"Little Wushan!"

Wu Chengfeng murmured this noun softly in his mouth.

Xiaowu Mountain is a highland with a height of hundreds of meters, and it is also the core position of the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army.

In order to destroy the arrogance of the Japanese army in one fell swoop, after discussion, Gao Hongming, Brigadier Chen and Tang Huaiyuan decided to dispatch the first battalion, the second battalion, the third battalion, the first artillery battalion of the Liantai militia, the independent regiment led by Li Yunlong, and the first regiment of Ding Weixin. With more than 1 troops, under the cover of three bomber squadrons and two fighter squadrons, they launched a full-scale counterattack against the 33rd Division.

Not only that, Gaojiazhuang's Eighth Route Army and Guojialing's Third Army also had to launch a feint attack to contain the Japanese troops at the same time.

In Gao Hongming's words, it is to concentrate on annihilating part of the enemy's vital forces, and strive to maim the 33rd Division, so that the devils can feel what it means to be in pain. It is worthwhile to pay a certain price for this goal.

"...Short-clothed horses go out of the hometown, the horns are sounding... I pray for death in battle. Facing the enemy, the body of a man standing upright, only willing to sacrifice for the country in his life, and throwing his head lightly..." came from the trenches The hoarse singing voice attracted Wu Chengfeng's attention.

I don’t know when this song became popular in the Liantai militia. At the beginning, it was only sung by the soldiers of the guard battalion, but because of its generous and tragic lyrics and tune, it quickly became popular in the whole regiment. Now all the soldiers of the Liantai militia can sing a few lines.

"Pray to die in battle... pray to die in battle..."

Wu Chengfeng's eyes turned around in the trench, looking at the young figures one after another, he sighed secretly in his heart, after this battle, he wondered how many brothers would stay on this land forever.

"Wipe the blood when you are injured, wrap your body after death, go forward bravely, and don't forget your duty!"

Singing softly, in a trance, Wu Chengfeng seemed to have returned to the scene when he was in the Northwest Army. At that time, various warlords in China fought in the Central Plains. At that time, he was still a big soldier and followed the chief today to fight tomorrow with the Central Army. Fighting with Fengjun, and fighting with Jinsui Army the day after tomorrow, the whole person was confused.

In the end, I couldn't bear it anymore, so I went back to my hometown and served as a nursing home for the master of the Gao family. After the master was killed by the Japanese, he followed the young master to beat the Japanese.

"If I die in battle, I don't know how much pension my family will get. It seems to be five hundred or eight hundred oceans?"

Just when Wu Chengfeng was a little dazed, the company commander walked up to him and said in a low voice: "Sir, you haven't rested for a day, and there is still some time before the attack, why don't you find a place to squat for a while?"

"No." Wu Chengfeng waved his hand, "I can't sleep at this time, otherwise I will lose the battle in a daze, and the Tuan Zuo will have to skin me."

While speaking, Wu Chengfeng felt tired, his back was sore, his head was a little dizzy, the mountains and the clouds in the sky were constantly spinning, and Wu Chengfeng hadn't closed his eyes since he received the order to counterattack.

"Sir, you should rest in the back!" Seeing the bloodshot eyes in the officer's eyes, the company commander persuaded softly. He was really worried about Wu Chengfeng's body. Can't compare with young people.

The concern of his subordinates did not make Wu Chengfeng change his mind.

"No, you go to rest, gather your energy and beat Xiao Wushan down!"

"Sir, it's not that you don't know my physical strength. I'm still so young, so this kind of fatigue is nothing at all. As long as I give an order, we will definitely be able to take Xiao Wushan down." Saying this, Yi Lianchang shook his body and made a gesture. Extraordinarily relaxed and non-tiring appearance...

In the Yangping Town Temporary Joint Headquarters, Chief of Staff Chi Yaohui pointed at the sand table with a wooden stick and said, "...According to the information obtained from aerial reconnaissance, the bombing of Xiaowu Mountain and the 33rd Division by the Flying Brigade is undoubtedly very effective.

According to our estimates, our bombing caused the loss of at least 50.00% of the food and weapons and ammunition stored by the Japanese army, especially the effect of the incendiary bombs we threw was very obvious. The number of wounded soldiers of the Japanese army has increased sharply these days.

Our scouts lurking behind the enemy reported that the Japanese army had begun targeted removal of some severely burned wounded, which indicated that their medicines were seriously insufficient. Judging from this information, the combat effectiveness of the 33rd Division had declined very seriously.

So I think it's time to launch a general attack! "

As soon as Chi Yaohui's words fell, a staff officer in a blue-gray military uniform asked back: "Then may I ask Chief of Staff, do you think we can eat the 33rd Division of the devils? If we can eat it, how much will we have to pay?" The cost of casualties? Once our casualties are too large, will we be able to withstand the Japanese counterattack?"

This triple question also made the expressions of the people present all the more dignified.

This is also the most worrying question in everyone's mind. After all, this counterattack plan is too radical. If the attack does not go well, it will be a big trouble.

Chi Yaohui shook his head: "I can only tell you that I am not sure about the three questions you raised."

"Then why do you still make such a radical plan?" There was a hint of dissatisfaction and anger on the face of the staff officer. In his opinion, if this plan slipped, what awaited them would be catastrophe.

"I will answer this question."

Gao Hongming's voice sounded from the side, he walked to Chi Yaohui's side, looked at the staff officer and said slowly: "First of all, Staff Officer Chi made this plan after receiving my instructions, and at the same time, this plan was also approved by Commander Tang and Chen The brigade commander agreed, and as a staff officer, what you have to do now is to execute the order instead of questioning it.

In addition, for your question, I will quote a Western proverb to answer: on the battlefield, anything you do may get you shot, of course, even if you do nothing. "

"Hahaha……"

Gao Hongming's words made the staff in the combat hall burst into laughter, and the tense atmosphere became more relaxed.

Brigadier Chen and Tang Huaiyuan were also amused to smile. It is also a skill to relax the tense atmosphere before the war.

"What I'm saying is..."

Gao Hongming's voice continued: "Before formulating this plan, I discussed with Commander Tang and Brigadier Chen that if the casualties of this attack can be controlled within 6000, in exchange for the complete annihilation of the No.30 Third Division Annihilation, then the casualties are worth it.

Our ancestors also have an old saying that it is better to cut off one than to hurt ten fingers. These days, the devils keep attacking us from three directions. Isn’t it because they have nothing to fear and think that we dare not launch a counterattack against them?
That being the case, let's not be polite, just compare whose fists are harder, even if we can't wipe out the 33rd Division, we have to bite off a piece of his flesh to let the devil know that we are not easy to mess with. "
