In the area in charge of the Second Battalion, after the battle, Shen Quan followed Kong Jie's instructions and asked the soldiers to prepare more than two hundred rifles.
Of course, most of them are guns that are inoperable or missing some important parts.
It just looks like something on the surface.
Then Shen Quan took a platoon of soldiers and personally sent these guns to the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Sui Army.
The 358th Regiment.
The group leader, Chu Yunfei, was very angry at the moment.
After the Japanese and puppet troops in the enemy-occupied areas suddenly launched a major counterattack, the Jinsui Army and many national army troops suffered disasters one after another.
The Eighth Route Army received the situation, and Chu Yunfei also received the situation.
Just in the morning, Chu Yunfei personally led a battalion, attached to an artillery battery, to the vicinity of the enemy-occupied county. He directly used artillery to repel the pursuing Japanese and puppet troops, and covered his brother's army - another Jin army. The evacuation of the Sui Army.
"Captain Chu, I will never thank you for your kindness. Please remember this favor, brother!"
The top commander of the team that was defeated by the Japanese army was also a regimental commander.
Despite the words of thanks, Chu Yunfei couldn't be happy at all.
Chu Yunfei, who was full of anger, suppressed his anger and only asked one sentence: "When we just defeated the pursuing Japanese and puppet troops, we have already detected the specific situation. The pursuing Japanese troops only had one squadron, plus Just some puppet troops.
Commander Qin, there are at least a thousand people in your unit, why were you defeated like this? "
Captain Qin smiled bitterly and said, "I'm ashamed to say that the Japanese set up an ambush in the county in advance, and our regiment accidentally fell into the trap. That's why we suffered a big loss and retreated in a hurry, leading to the situation in front of us."
Chu Yunfei said: "Since we are retreating, there should be rearguard troops and the evacuation should be orderly. But why do I see people abandoning their helmets and armor, panicking and choosing the road? Captain Qin, what can I say about this?"
These words hit the nail on the head. Commander Qin's expression froze and he had nothing to say.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
It was Fang Ligong, the chief of staff of the 358th Regiment, who quickly put on a smile and smoothed things over, saying: "Captain Qin, our regiment also cares deeply about our brother troops, so we have to speak more straightforwardly. Please don't mind. .”
"Since the Japanese and puppet troops in front of you have been repelled by our troops, Commander Qin, please quickly gather your troops, return to the station, and reorganize your troops!"
"good!"
Captain Qin responded, not daring to look directly into Chu Yunfei's eyes, and quickly turned around and left. Only a faint sound of complaint could be heard:
"What's the air? It's not just how much Chief Yan values that your 358th Regiment has strong soldiers and well-equipped troops today. If it weren't for those artillery, you Chu Yunfei might not be a match for these Japs."
"Our regiment doesn't have an artillery battalion, even if it has an artillery company, it won't be defeated so miserably."
…
The voice was not loud, but I don't know if Captain Qin did it intentionally, but it happened to fall in the ears of Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong word for word.
Chu Yunfei's face became terrifyingly dark, and anger boiled in his eyes.
Fang Ligong coughed twice and hurriedly advised: "Tuanzi, why bother with this kind of person? We would rather offend a gentleman than a villain. This man named Qin has some connections in the chief executive's department.
We saved him today, and we don't ask for any favors. We can't let people hold grudges in their hearts. "
Chu Yunfei breathed a long sigh of relief and adjusted his mentality. There was really no need to care about such mediocre people.
Fortunately, such a mediocre regiment does not have an artillery battalion. Otherwise, the artillery in this artillery battalion would probably be given up to the little devils at this moment.
"This general is really incompetent. He exhausted all three armies. Only a squadron of Japanese soldiers could pursue him in a regiment. More than 300 brothers were sacrificed in the regiment. There was no trace of sadness on the face of this Qin man. Sex, brother Ligong, just now he said he was ashamed, now that I think about it, I feel even more ashamed that I am associated with such people."
Fang Ligong was silent, what else could he say? I can only smile bitterly.
Chu Yunfei looked into the distance again and said: "Brother Ligong, right in front of us, our Jinsui Army has been so defeated. I really don't know how much disaster our Jinsui Army will suffer from this sudden Japanese counterattack."
"Tuanzuo, you still had the foresight to shrink your troops back in advance and avoid this major Japanese counterattack."
Fang Ligong said with emotion.
Then he comforted:
"As for the troops of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army who were unable to evacuate in time, were bitten by the Japanese and puppet troops, and suffered disaster, you have tried your best to save them, regiment leader. It is really impossible to save them, and there is nothing you can do about them."
Chu Yunfei nodded and ordered: "Go back to the station!"
"yes!"
After Chu Yunfei returned to the station, not long after, the communications corps rushed to the regiment headquarters and reported: "Report to the regiment, someone from the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army has arrived. The leader claims to be Shen Quan, commander of the Second Battalion of the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. According to their commander According to Kong Jie’s order, come and see the group leader.”
Fang Ligong said in surprise: "Eighth Route Army? What are they doing here?"
The communications soldier replied: "Report to the Chief of Staff, Shen Quan also brought a batch of equipment, saying that it is the equipment of our Jinsui Army. According to the order of their regiment commander, he specially sent it to the regiment."
"How come the equipment of our Jinsui Army is in the hands of their Eighth Route Army?" Fang Ligong was confused.
This time the signal soldier did not answer. It was obvious that he did not know the situation.
Chu Yunfei speculated: "This is easy to understand. The Eighth Route Army's external guerrilla zone faces a wider range of Japanese troops than our 358th Regiment.
Perhaps after the Japanese and puppet troops launched a counterattack, they rescued some teams of our Shanxi-Sui Army and captured some guns. "
Fang Ligong came back to his senses and said suspiciously: "Commander, I can't understand this even more. Their Eighth Route Army's equipment is scarce, so it would be a good idea if they don't take advantage of it. They took the equipment of our Jinsui Army, but looking back, they actually... Did you deliver it to us?"
Chu Yunfei said: "Who knows the specific situation? Brother Ligong, instead of us making random guesses here, it is better to go and meet with Chen Quan, and then it will be clear."
Having said this, Chu Yunfei ordered: "Let this Eighth Route Army come in... No, I will greet it myself!"
Fang Ligong said: "Here comes an Eighth Route Army battalion commander. This level is not equal at all. Commander, you don't need to mobilize troops like this, right?"
Chu Yunfei said: "In special times, why should soldiers stick to false etiquette? In any case, since the Eighth Route Army is here to return equipment, we should treat them with courtesy."
"Yes!" Fang Ligong responded.
The two of them rushed to the entrance of the 358th Regiment together and met Shen Quan and his party.
The two sides met each other, and Shen Quan saluted Chu Yunfei as an officer.
Chu Yunfei returned the gift.
After finishing, Chu Yunfei said: "Shen Ying has been a guest for a long time, and I have a good relationship with Commander Kong. It's freezing out here, so let's go inside first and talk!"
Shen Quan, on the other hand, straightened his steps, straightened his body, and said neither humble nor arrogant: "Captain Chu, you are welcome. You don't have to go into the house. Our commander often said that this person is used to suffering hardships, and it is easy to enjoy happiness." , but if he is used to enjoying happiness, then it will be difficult for him to endure hardship."
"The cold weather in front of us seems to be normal to us in the Eighth Route Army, but it makes us feel more at ease."
Chu Yunfei smiled and said: "Forget it, your Eighth Route Army has a strong will, so the wind and snow will not be a problem."
"I just don't know what Battalion Commander Shen's coming over this time means."
Chen Quan replied: "According to our commander's instructions, we are here to return the equipment to Commander Chu."
Having said this, Shen Quan looked at the team behind him and said: "Comrades, let's fire the guns. Arrange the guns so that it can be convenient for the brothers of the 358th Regiment to clean up."
After the order was issued, more than 30 soldiers immediately took action behind Shen Quan. Each of the soldiers carried four or five guns, then took off all the guns and stacked them neatly together. There were more than 200 guns. It does add up to quite a lot of volume.
All Jin-made Type 65 rifles are indeed equipment of the Jin-Sui Army.
"Captain Chu, these are more than two hundred rifles that our commander asked us to send over first."
After Shen Quan said this, Fang Ligong was completely confused.
What does it mean?
The sun rises in the west. These Eighth Route Army troops are really rich in money. They came here specially and brought equipment?
Changing the topic, Shen Quan continued, "Oh, Commander Chu, and Chief of Staff Fang, please don't get me wrong."
"Some of the equipment of your Jinsui Army in front of you was picked up by us. This is no lie. After the Japanese and puppet troops suddenly counterattacked, many Jinsui Army troops may have been caught off guard and were defeated directly. Their weapons and ammunition were lost on the road. One place.
Our group leader felt distressed when he saw it, so he asked us to pick it up. We can't just leave it for the little devil to pick it up, right?
There are also some that we snatched from the little devils and puppet soldiers.
When our regiment leader took a look, weren’t these all equipment of the Jinsui Army?
But in the Jinsui Army, our regiment leader doesn’t know anyone else, and he is even less worried about the character of other Jinsui Army officers. Our regiment leader trusts Commander Chu, so he asked me to send these equipment to Commander Chu. "
So that's it. With that said, the origin of this batch of equipment makes sense.
Fang Ligong didn't care, there was no expression on his face.
Chu Yunfei's face was not very pretty.
The equipment has been returned, but isn't it obvious what the Eighth Route Army meant?
It was your Shanxi-Sui Army troops who were incompetent, defeated the battle, and fled all the way.
Even the most important weapons and equipment for soldiers were lost.
Only then did the Eighth Route Army pick it up.
Shame on you!
Chen Quan continued: "By the way, Commander Chu, the more than two hundred rifles in front of you are just part of the equipment that your Jinsui Army soldiers lost on the road and were captured by the Japanese.
There are still quite a few in our Independent Regiment, but according to the rules of our Eighth Route Army, any captured equipment must be turned over.
So it can only be sent to the headquarters.
But please rest assured, Commander Chu. Our commander has made it clear to the headquarters that these equipments belong to your Jinsui Army.
At that time, as long as Commander Chu and Commander Yan come forward and ask for it personally, our Eighth Route Army headquarters will definitely return all the remaining equipment to your Jinsui Army. "
"..."
Chu Yunfei was silent.
At this time, even Fang Ligong felt that Shen Quan's words were a disguised slap in the face.
Who is Commander Yan?
For this little equipment, can you admit that your team is not good enough and will only lose the battle? The weapons and equipment are lost all over the place, and you have to rely on your Eighth Route Army to get the equipment back?
But Fang made meritorious service and had nothing to say. The Eighth Route Army was just stating the facts.
When the 358th Regiment rushed to support Captain Qin in the morning, many soldiers in Captain Qin's team were defeated. They lost their weapons in a panic and lost their weapons.
Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong could completely imagine what it would be like when the Eighth Route Army seized these Jinsui Army equipment.
A group of Jinsui troops abandoned their armor and collapsed.
Weapons and equipment were thrown all over the floor, and the Eighth Route Army could not even pick them up.
There were not many Japanese and puppet troops chasing behind.
The Jinsui Army, whose strength far exceeded that of the Japanese and puppet troops, was running around like a bereaved dog.
There are probably only two words that can be used to describe that situation - "shame".
Chu Yunfei's face was gloomy and scary, "Please rest assured, Commander Shen, I will make these things clear to the senior officers."
"Thank you very much, Commander Chu. In addition, our commander asked me to tell Commander Chu that our Eighth Route Army took the initiative this time and saved a lot of Shanxi-Sui Army troops from the counterattack of the Japanese and puppet troops.
Captain Chu didn't need to remember this favor, but Chief Yan asked him to put in a good word for him.
It would be better if it was just a verbal commendation or something like that. If it has practical benefits, that would be the best. "
Fang Ligong: "..."
This guy named Kong is so shameless.
Chu Yunfei nodded, "Okay, I will tell you."
Chen Quan said: "Finally, our commander, let me give you a message for Commander Chu.
I was afraid that I would misunderstand the meaning, so I didn’t dare to miss a single word and memorized them all.
Our leader’s original words are as follows:
Brother Chu, Brother Chu, I have looked at the entire Jinsui Army, especially the response and performance of the Jinsui Army when they suddenly encountered a counterattack by the Japanese and puppet troops.
It has to be said that Brother Chu is able to cultivate the pride of a soldier in such a team. He is indeed able to emerge from the mud without being stained, and walk through the water without being evil. This is extremely admirable! "
In the last paragraph, Shen Quan learned a subtle smile, and in a daze, the person standing in front of Chu Yunfei seemed to be Kong Jie.
"Captain Chu, that's all. I have completed all the tasks assigned to me by our commander. Commander Chu, if there is nothing else, we will leave now."
Chu Yunfei was silent for a moment, then raised his head, with indescribable complexity in his eyes, and finally said: "Battle Commander Shen, please tell Brother Kong about the friendship between the equipment this time. Although Brother Kong has repeatedly emphasized that Chu should not worry, But Chu will still remember it in his heart.”
"In addition, what I want to tell Brother Kong is that there are idiots and fools in our Jinsui Army, but there are also pillars who serve the country loyally. I hope Brother Kong will view it objectively and not make jokes."
Chen Quan said: "Don't worry, Commander Chu. I will convey these words to our commander word for word."
"Thank you very much!"
"Captain Chu is too polite. It's freezing cold today. Commander Chu should go back to the house quickly!"
Chu Yunfei said: "With a close friend, a thousand cups are too little. Since we are friends' subordinates, I, Chu, should treat them with courtesy. Let Chu watch off Battalion Commander Shen and his entourage!"
"Thank you, farewell!"
The two sides said goodbye, and Shen Quan led the team gradually away.
Chu Yunfei had been standing at the entrance of the station, watching Shen Quan and his party leave as a farewell.
The cold wind was blowing, but Chu Yunfei, who stood at the entrance of the station, was completely frozen like a sculpture. His eyes were focused in the direction of Shen Quan and his party who had completely gone away. There was no trace of any emotion on his face. look.
"These eight rifles are really interesting. I really thought the sun was coming out in the west! My dear, Tuan Zuo, I've been looking at them for a long time, but not one of the rifles they sent over is intact."
It wasn't until Fang Ligong's voice sounded that Chu Yunfei seemed to be awakened.
Chu Yunfei looked at the desolate mountains in the distance, his expressionless face suddenly filled with anger.
Cursed: "These bastards!"
Yes, bastards, these Eighth Route Army are such bastards, they even used these broken guns to fool us!
Fang Ligong deeply agreed and felt that his group's scolding was quite good.
"Standing in one's position but not doing one's job, *****, damn it!"
"Flattery, flattery, stupidity and incompetence, causing harm to soldiers and victims, deserve to die!"
"Those who are short-sighted, selfish, and put personal interests ahead of national interests should be damned!"
"Those who avoid the enemy and fight cowardly, surrender cowardly, thieves and traitors, deserve to die!"
"Perhaps these bastards should all die so that this country can see the light of day again!"
Chu Yunfei's words seemed to echo across the world.
Chief of Staff Fang Ligong responded hurriedly: "Yes, damn it!"
Then he came back to his senses: "???"
Looking at the majestic figure from behind, Chu Yunfei looked upright and full of indignation.
Fang Ligong couldn't help being shocked.
Tuanzuo...how many people did you scold in this breath?
But I didn't mean to scold the Eighth Route Army.
He seemed to have gotten the situation wrong.
As for the more than two hundred guns sent by the Eighth Route Army, Chu Yunfei never even glanced at them from beginning to end...
