Age of Rebirth

The sky is gradually brightening, and the dawn is showing in the east. The headquarters directly under the Corps is still brightly lit. The combat staff members are nervously entering and leaving. Telegrams are sent from the radio room from time to time. Looking at a large map, more than a dozen phones, ringing one after another.

The staff officers who counted the battle results and troop casualties kept their voices down as much as possible, and stepped lightly when entering and leaving. No one dared to disturb the division commander Tang Qiuli at this time. The anger and murderous aura felt from him made these young staff officers and Confidential officers, they didn't dare to show their air. When a young female confidential officer sent a telegram to Chen Feng, the director of communications, she saw the teacher sitting on the chair, perhaps because of the murderous pressure, she turned pale. , almost fainted.

Tang Qiuli is now angry and wants to kill people. Liu Zhi took the initiative and put his No. 11 Army Group into the Duyun battlefield. The damage caused to his plan was far beyond his imagination. Careful layout, mobilization of the strongest firepower of the independent division, intended to annihilate Yamashita Fengwen No.15 Army, the ace unit of the Japanese army in one fell swoop.

The plan was successful, and there were no deviations during the execution process. The last net went down and all the remaining defeated soldiers of the No.15 Army were salvaged. The Battle of Duyun could be ended perfectly. The Japanese troops who fought all over China's opponents have since disappeared.

But Liu Zhi let one of his group army, more than 9 horses, suddenly step in, which not only affected the course of the battle, but also changed the outcome of the battle, and even affected the western front, which was blocking the seven brigades of more than 30 Japanese troops. Troops, more than [-] Japanese soldiers broke out from the direction of Xiyunfeng, just behind the western front troops. [

After the defeat, the remnants of the No. 15 Japanese army did not have the guts to go from behind.The troops attacking the western front, but the troops on the western front were outnumbered, even if a small group of remnants of the Japanese army inadvertently broke into the rear of the troops, the impact on the blocking war was incalculable.

The remnants of the Japanese army that had broken through the encirclement must not be allowed to get close to the four main points of Baimang, Jiangzhou, Pinglang, and Kaimen.Send out troops to pursue them and force them to Guiding and Fuquan in northern Guizhou.Tang Qiuli had to temporarily change some plans.

He called Chen Feng and ordered, "Send a telegram to Chutian in Duyun City, and all the special operations detachment will be dispatched to pursue the remaining Japanese troops who broke out from the direction of Xiyunfeng. The ultimate goal is not to affect the blocking battle on the western front. Chang Feng and Ma Chaoyang sent a telegram to transfer the ninth and twelfth brigades of the Corps directly under Mashan, as well as the third and fourth brigades of Feng Jiwu Corps, to Duyun immediately. The pursuit and annihilation of the remaining troops."

After Chen Feng recorded the order and repeated it, he was about to leave when Tang Qiuli asked, "Has the First Brigade reported the whereabouts of Yamashita Fengwen?" Chen Feng shook his head.Tang Qiuli was even more worried. If Yamashita Fengwen escaped by chance, he still had nearly [-] soldiers in his hand. This crazy guy would definitely choose any one of the four targets and stab him in the back.

"Order Chang Feng to lead the two brigades directly under the corps, and take a car. Arrive at Duyun at the fastest speed, the two brigades of Feng Jiwu's corps. Follow up," he added.After Chen Feng left, a young staff officer came in, carefully handed him a few pages of paper, and said, "Master, this is just calculated, the casualties of the combat troops last night."

When Tang Qiuli saw it, he almost shouted out in surprise. In the battle to eliminate the remaining Japanese troops, the casualties of the First Brigade reached 890 and 560 in one night, of which 800 and 11 were killed. The casualties were too large for him Imagine, what makes him even more unacceptable is that in the battle against the remaining Japanese army, the casualties of the first brigade were only more than [-] people, and the casualties of more than [-] people were all caused by the No.[-] Army of the Central Army Liu Zhi. How could this be the case? ?

Tang Qiuli asked, as if he was asking the staff, and he seemed to be asking himself. The staff added: "Master, there is also Captain Cao Guozhu, the trainee company commander of the third regiment, fourth battalion and first company, and 68 soldiers of the company are missing. body, so it was not included in the casualty list."

Tang Qiuli asked bitterly and slightly suspiciously: "Is this casualty list accurate?" The young staff officer blushed, and he did not allow others to doubt his ability to work, even if it was the No. 1 independent division, the division commander Tang Qiuli couldn't do it either, "Master, this is the figure after I checked it with all units carefully three times. I guarantee it is absolutely accurate with the honor of a soldier. If there is any discrepancy, the division commander can immediately expel my military registration." Young The staff officer said loudly.

Tang Qiuli looked at the young staff officer with a little surprise, and said gently: "It's not that I doubt how serious your work is, but I can't believe this number. Okay, go down," the young staff officer's expression returned to normal. , and gave the teacher a grateful look.

Tang Qiu closed the folder and closed his eyes forcefully, which made his heart ache. The shocking number of casualties, if you add the 69 missing people, will exceed 1000. This is the first time since the Independent Division recovered North China. Such a large casualty, and not in the battle with the Japanese casualties.

"Huzi, get ready. I'm going to see Liu Zhi in the morning. This account should be settled with him," Tang Qiuli ordered Shanhu to arrive. Shanhu was just about to go out to make arrangements. The colonel came in and followed immediately.

"Reporting to the division commander, according to the order of our brigade commander, Long Rubo, the colonel of the 11st regiment of the 51st Division of the [-]th Army of the No. [-]th Army of the Central Army, is escorted here," a lieutenant leading the team said bluntly. Shan Hu waved his hand, Several soldiers from the security brigade came in, escorted Long Rubai into the headquarters, and then stood behind Tang Qiuli like a king kong.

Tang Qiuli looked coldly at the bewildered and bewildered Long Rubai. Long Rubai was completely stunned now. His remaining hundreds of soldiers were all disarmed by the vicious major general, and he himself was also disarmed by the vicious major general. I got into the car and walked for more than two hours to this strange place.

He looked up at Tang Qiuli, there were four gold stars on the epaulettes, God, the second-rank general of the army, such a young high-ranking official, his majesty should not be looked up to, but he was even more afraid of the major general beside him, with a tower-like figure, black On Giao Giao's face, his eyes were shining coldly, staring at him with malicious intent, what is he holding in his hand?Mother, it's a heavy machine gun!

Long Rubai's legs trembled involuntarily, and a layer of sweat oozed from his forehead. He reluctantly saluted a military salute, and asked with a trembling voice, "I don't know who the officer is...?" "Tang Qiuli" , the general replied lightly.

Long Rubai suddenly slumped on the ground, Vice Chairman Tang, the number two man in the government, a character more powerful than Chairman Jiang, the shadow of a famous tree, in front of the famous Vice Chairman Tang, He didn't have the slightest chance of luck, and before he recovered from the shock, he was picked up by two soldiers.

Long Rubai nodded his head like garlic, and kept saying: "Damn the lowly position. I don't know if it's Vice Chairman Tang who has eyes." Tang Qiuli waved his hands in disgust to stop his nonsense, and asked lightly: " I want to know, what happened at the Xiyun Peak position around one o'clock in the morning?"

When Long Rubai heard this, his eyeballs became more lively, and he turned around a few times, obviously thinking about it, Shan Hu let out a muffled snort, and pulled the bolt of the heavy machine gun with a single click, Long Rubai Bai's seven souls and six souls were about to leave his body, and he understood that as long as there was a lie, this diamond-like major general would definitely not mind pouring a shuttle of heavy machine guns into himself.

After listening to Long Rubai's confession, Tang Qiuli's angry expression became more and more serious, especially what Liu Zhi said made him even more furious. It can be confirmed that the remnants of the No.15 Army came from Xiyun In the direction of the peak, nearly 1 people broke out. Is there any Yamashita Fengwen here? [

There is also Liu Zhi, who is even more sinful. He is the chief culprit that caused the ending of the battle. Just when Tang Qiuli had already regarded Liu Zhi as a dead person, Liu Zhi in Duyun City was so happy that he almost went crazy .

Zhang Tiren, head of the No. 11 army's security regiment, brought back the bodies of Yamashita Fengwen and Gong Qi. The news immediately caused a sensation at the East Route Army Headquarters. Liu Zhi, who was already resting in bed, immediately got up, ignoring his military uniform. , took out his chubby body, and ran to the headquarters at a speed that did not match his chubby body.

From a long distance, I saw Zhang Tiren gesticulating and talking about his heroic deeds. Zhang Tiren was eloquent and vividly described the virtual battle scene, including how he commanded the troops and braved the intensive Japanese firepower. Under such complicated terrain conditions, Yamashita Fengwen was finally killed.

This guy didn't say a word about the heinous crimes he committed in the cave, and cunningly changed it to Fengwen Yamashita, who was killed in the mountains and forests. He was afraid that if someone with good deeds ran to see the situation on the ground, they would all be exposed. Now, if Yamashita Fengwen suddenly cheated on the corpse, he would definitely scold him for farting and beat him until his teeth were all over the floor.

Liu Zhi coughed calmly, and Zhang Tiren immediately stood at attention and saluted, "Report to the commander-in-chief, Zhang Tiren, the head of the No. 11 Group Army's military guard regiment, fortunately fulfilled his mission in the battle to eliminate the Japanese army and killed the Japanese chieftain No. 15." Lieutenant General Fengwen Yamashita, commander of the army, and Lieutenant General Gong Qi, head of the division, please give instructions to the commander-in-chief!"

Liu Zhi only took a glance, and then confirmed the identity of Fengwen Yamashita, "Head Zhang, well, you have made a great contribution, go down and rest." Zhang Tiren walked away with his chest up and his belly folded. His mission has been completed. When it came down, it was my cousin's business. Liu Zhi didn't delay too long, and hurried back to the office. He had to think hard about how to report the good news to Chongqing.

At this time, Tang Qiuli received another news that he was burned inside. Liu Hongzhang, the commander of the first brigade, reported that the missing soldiers were found in a cave, and all of them had died. Only one was seriously injured. The soldier, before dying, confided a shocking news.
