Half an hour later, all battlefields had been cleaned.
The total equipment seized included one 105mm cannon with one base number of artillery shells; 4 Type 92 infantry guns with five base number of artillery shells; 6 70 mortars with six base number of artillery shells; 14 grenade launchers with 11 base number of artillery shells. . There are no specific statistics on the remaining firearms and ammunition...
In terms of casualties, the total number reached 114, including 35 dead and 28 seriously injured. This was the battle with the largest casualties in the history of Wen San.
There is no way, most of the casualties this time are new soldiers. Despite the words and deeds of the veterans, they are still much worse than the veterans.
For example, when charging, how to avoid enemy bullets is a very important knowledge. Every veteran has his own set of theories, and different battlefield environments require different methods. If the new soldiers are not used properly, casualties are inevitable.
In these several battles, in order to achieve the fastest effect of annihilating the enemy, they all launched strong attacks in the later stages of the battle. The increase in casualties is understandable.
Fortunately, Wen San Branch now has a battlefield rescue team, and there should be more wounded soldiers who survive.
"Retract the troops and relocate the troops." Wen Sanqiang calmed himself.
As a general, you must not care about the casualties of your troops, but you must not care too much about the casualties of your troops. No one can avoid the cruelty of war. As the saying goes, one general can achieve great results. As long as they can afford to die and make contributions to this country, then everything will be worth it.
"Battal Commander, the Niujiaoshan garrison was my original unit. I didn't expect their movement to come here." Just when Wen San's troops were about to leave, Chen Liren ran over and told him unexpected news.
"Your original department? Is it such a coincidence?" Wen San smiled in surprise, and then said, "What do you think? You might as well tell me."
"I don't have any ideas. I heard that the battalion commander of the defenders is Zhu Wen, so I'm just a little emotional." Chen Liren lowered his eyebrows and looked down on him.
He lost his life to Wen San, what else is there to say. Along the way, Wen San's team has grown bigger and bigger, and the levels of commanders at all levels have also improved, but his position has not been arranged. Wen San regarded him as a combat consultant at most, and often did not adopt his suggestions.
"You want to return to the original army, right?" Wen San actually guessed what Chen Liren was thinking.
During this period of time, Chen Liren has been studying his fighting methods attentively, and he is indeed very attentive. But Wen San left him alone and had no chance to command the battle.
Under such circumstances, it is reasonable for him to want to return to his army.
"No, actually it's good to stay here." Chen Liren said with some duplicity.
"There is no problem in letting you go back. I can also give you some military merit." Wen San had a smile on his face. He had already been planning how to use Chen Liren.
"Well, you can return to the original army as the combat staff of the independent battalion. I will write you a detailed battle report. I believe that after you go back, you will have no problem taking off the word 'vice' on your head." Wen San Finally, Chen Liren's wish came true.
The effect of returning with military exploits is completely different from returning alone. Based on the record of the Wen San Independent Battalion and the fact that they had just annihilated the Japanese Hayata Battalion, Chen Liren would definitely become a popular figure when he returned to his original unit.
"Thank you, battalion commander, for your training!" Chen Liren didn't expect Wen San to be so generous. The battle report he wrote in his own hand played a huge role.
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. After you return to your original headquarters, you will have to work harder to climb to a higher position. In addition, I will let Wang Mazi keep in touch with you for a long time, whether it is tactical guidance or collaborative operations, as long as If I can help you, I won't hesitate to postpone it; if necessary, I can also provide you with some Japanese equipment." Wen San paused for a moment as he said this.
This kind of support is quite awesome!
With Wen San's big tree at his back, it would be difficult for him not to be promoted.
Chen Liren looked excited, but he was not in a hurry to express his position, knowing that Wen San must have something more to say. There must be something important for him to do.
"I need the strategic defense of the national army's front line, the mobilization of various departments, and the corresponding defense maps. You must use your position to help me get these things and send them back. In addition, if conditions permit, help me get some medicines. and grain, we will pay you accordingly according to the price."
What Wen San lacked the most was information in this area. His troops fought almost randomly, with no supplies or logistics. Mastering the dynamics of the frontline battlefield is of great help to him. Putting Chen Liren back would have a big effect.
Chen Liren looked a little serious when he heard Wen San's request. Under normal circumstances, doing such a job would be a serious crime of decapitation. But he thought that Wen San was not a traitor, and they were also upright regular soldiers. If they passed this information to him, even if they were eventually found out, they would be forgiven.
The key is that the support Wen San promised him was too tempting, and he couldn't refuse it at all.
"Don't worry, battalion commander, I will do my best to deliver this news to you as quickly as possible." Chen Liren's attitude was very firm, which gave Wen San a little more confidence.
"Okay! That's it. When Fang Mei's photos are developed, it will be more convincing if you take these photos back." Wen San was still very thoughtful and must give Chen Liren a significant bargaining chip. His original unit was not the main force under the supreme commander, so it was quite dazzling to take back this military achievement.
The next day, Chen Liren went to Niujiao Mountain with the information Wen San had prepared for him.
He never thought that he would return to his original position in this capacity. As the deputy battalion commander of the defeated army, normally even if he returns, he will be demoted and face strict interrogation.
But now, his identity has changed, and he has a feeling of returning home in rich clothes.
Who dares to say that I am a deserter? Looking at the thick information in his hand, as well as the series of impressive achievements of the independent battalion, and the commendation order announced by the supreme commander, even if the division commander came over, he would not dare to embarrass him easily.
When Zhu Wen saw Chen Liren, he was also surprised.
Yesterday's battle was still vivid in his mind, and he had learned a lesson about the majesty of the Independent Battalion. Especially when Chen Liren took out the materials prepared for him by Wen San and the photos of the annihilation of the Japanese Hayata Brigade, Zhu Wen was even more moved.
"Brother Liren, you have made great achievements again this time! I'm afraid it would be reasonable for the division commander to give you a regiment leader..." Zhu Wen was half flattering, half envious.
Such a great achievement is really rare.
"Brother Wen, thank you for the award. Most of the credit must go to Battalion Commander Wen Youcai. I am just a combat consultant. My brother's abilities are limited, so he will be sent back to the original army." Chen Liren said politely, The pride on his face is visible to everyone.
"Brother Liren is so humble. I will immediately arrange for someone to take you back to the division headquarters. When the time comes, Brother Liren will be promoted, so don't forget about my old brother." Zhu Wen became more and more polite.
Unexpectedly, the guy named Chen took off after being a deserter.
