Also confused about this were the people at the Yu Division headquarters. The strange explosion made everyone a little puzzled.
"What's going on over there?" Yu Xiaoqing looked at Liao Mingyu involuntarily.
"Don't look at me, I don't know either."
Monk Liao Mingyu was also confused. You said it was the sound of artillery firing, but it didn't sound like it. The sound was like a pile of artillery shells being detonated together.
Wait...a shell explosion?
Could it be that that bastard Long Wenwen destroyed Little Japan's artillery positions? Liao Mingyu was shocked when he thought of this.
"Signal Corps, contact the Second Company immediately and ask them to closely observe the situation on the other side of Jiqi Slope and be ready to respond to Deputy Commander Long at any time."
"Yes!" The communications soldier immediately ran to the side, opened the communication channel of the walkie-talkie, and began to contact the first company.
This scene was deeply noticed by Yu Xiaoqing: "Commander Liao, your troop equipment is quite new. This small communication machine is really convenient."
In fact, he just wanted to ask how the Sichuan Legion had so much high-end equipment.
The people in the guard camp were either Garands or M2 grease guns. He had only seen these equipment from US military allies. How could it appear in the hands of an unknown force, let alone that he had never even seen it? A walkie-talkie I've ever seen.
This small communication device can actually make wireless calls, and one person can run around with it. It is simply a weapon on the battlefield. With it, are you afraid that the troops cannot cooperate in combat?
"Haha, actually it's just like that." Liao Mingyu laughed.
No wonder he is jealous, this kind of walkie-talkie that is unique in the world has not been developed by other countries except the Americans, let alone used on a large scale.
Yu Xiaoqing frowned and thought for a while, but finally couldn't help but said with a dry smile:
"The weapons of your unit are also very good. I'm afraid they weren't issued from above. If Captain Liao has any special ideas, he might as well introduce them to Yu, and you won't let your excuses go in vain. Haha, after all, …We are also friendly forces.”
Yo! These words were really strange to come out of Yu Xiaoqing's mouth. It's not easy for someone who is so proud to say nice things with a shy face.
"Master Yu is joking. I might disappoint you if I tell you. You know, these weapons are extremely scarce. I only equipped one battalion, and I don't have enough."
Liao Mingyu thought to himself, you want to use my equipment for me, I'm afraid you should give up this idea as soon as possible. I don’t have enough for myself, why should I introduce it to you? Ask if the system can be sold to you.
"Oh, that would be a shame."
Listening to Liao Mingyu's excuse, Yu Xiaoqing cursed in her heart. You only equipped one battalion? Your battalion has almost caught up with one of my regiments, is it still too little?
But he just said it casually. Come to think of it, if you could master this special channel, who would be willing to share it with others? But in this regard, I can ask my father to find some connections to check it out.
"Master Yu, look at it. Has Japan's bombardment become weaker?" Liao Mingyu didn't want to dwell too much on this, so he immediately changed the subject.
Yu Xiaoqing helplessly picked up the telescope and looked outside. Not to mention, the Japs' artillery fire was really sparse. Zhongba Beach, which had been exploding non-stop, now has no sound. Could it be that the huge explosion just now was a problem with the Japanese artillery position?
"Reporting to the regimental commander, Company Commander Deng replied that he had received a signal from Deputy Commander Long and that they were retreating. And...it was said that Deputy Commander Long and the others had really taken out the Japanese artillery positions."
As soon as the communications soldier received the call back, he immediately ran over to report to Liao Mingyu.
"Um?"
Sure enough, it seems that the loud noise just now was the masterpiece of Death, Death, and this bastard really did it.
"Commander Liao, you can't just let the people below report this kind of news blindly. It needs to be verified before making a conclusion."
Yu Xiaoqing looked disdainful, that quartermaster pretending to be the regiment leader? He's just a sock darner, how can he have this skill?
"Really? We'll know soon if it's true or false." Liao Mingyu said with a smile.
"Oh, I don't think the deputy captain Long he mentioned has such ability." Yu Xiaoqing said stubbornly.
"Hmph, he is very capable. He dares to cross the river with me to rescue people. He dares to lead a small force deep behind enemy lines. Commander Yu, do your soldiers dare?"
Liao Mingyu suppressed his anger and looked at Yu Xiaoqing with evil eyes. Why is this person so annoying? Why do you make irresponsible remarks about my soldiers? It’s none of your business. If you are so capable, why don't you rely on me to help you defend the river?
Liao Mingyu, who was chatting and laughing just now, suddenly became anxious. His protective character made the other officers of the Yu Division feel embarrassed.
Yu Xiaoqing just said a few words about the deputy captain Liao, but the commander Liao refused. This is not how the protector protects the calf.
"Forget it...I won't argue with you, let's wait and see."
Yu Xiaoqing knew that she was in the wrong, so she couldn't help but soften her words. After all, they were here to help, so they couldn't start a fight in public.
Liao Mingyu rolled his eyes at him, thinking that you know what he is interested in, and then ignored him. He found a chair and sat down at random, and asked the signal soldier: "How is the situation in the direction of Zhongbatan?"
"Battle Commander Dong also replied just now. They have repelled the fourth Japanese attack. Now the Japanese troops on the other side of Zhongba Beach have retreated and there is no sign of another attack."
"good!"
"Well done!"
"Ha ha!"
…
Everyone in the headquarters cheered. It was not easy. Both the Sichuan Army and the Yu Division suffered heavy losses, but at least they managed to hold on to Zhongba Beach.
But what the communications soldier said next moved Liao Mingyu.
"The other...the third battalion suffered heavy casualties. Several officers were injured. Commander Li Jie was unconscious, and Company Commander Zhang was injured by a shell. His life or death is uncertain. They have been sent to the rear for rescue."
"What!?"
Liao Mingyu stood up suddenly, grabbed the communications soldier's shoulders, and shouted anxiously: "Where are they sent now?"
"In...in the temporary field hospital of Yu Division." This sudden movement startled the communications soldier, who replied in fear.
Oh shit!
Liao Mingyu was very anxious when he heard that Mi Long and others were injured. This idiot had followed him from the asylum to fight all the way without losing a single victory. However, he was seriously injured in this defensive battle, which made him calm down.
"Take me there immediately!" Liao Mingyu didn't hesitate at all, and told the master to go out immediately.
"Don't worry, there are still a few doctors at the field hospital. I'll make a call now and arrange for them to rescue your soldiers as soon as possible."
Yu Xiaoqing comforted him and immediately picked up the phone to tell him to calm down.
"No, I have to go right away."
Liao Mingyu flatly refused. Now that a group of brothers were seriously injured, how could he continue to stay here as if nothing was wrong. Besides, he didn’t know how good the doctors at the field hospital were. He didn’t dare to bet on whether Milong could survive.
"Commander Liao! How can you get so angry over a few soldiers? How is your behavior any different from those of ordinary men? As one of the top commanders on the east coast, your task is to stay at the headquarters to coordinate the overall situation, not Go to the hospital and cause trouble!”
Yu Xiaoqing said coldly. According to his personality, he dislikes people who act recklessly without etiquette.
Especially on the battlefield, the casualties of lower-level officers are inevitable. There are no casualties in a war. Is this what a good commander should do, regardless of the safety of the overall situation for the sake of a few junior officers?
"Yu Xiaoqing, don't we still have you in the headquarters? Don't you think you won't be able to fight without me, Liao Mingyu?" Liao Mingyu retorted sharply. Staring at Yu Xiaoqing with cold eyes.
"I believe my soldiers did not lie to me. Since they dared to say so, they must have killed the enemy's artillery positions."
"Coupled with the huge losses of the Japanese troops on Zhongba Beach, it can be inferred that the enemy's attack has been exhausted and Takeuchi is unable to continue the attack. Just wait here to see Takeuchi retreat."
"A commander not only needs to coordinate the overall situation, but also has excellent judgment and a group of soldiers who can fight for you through life and death. Can you defeat little Japan just by standing here? Also, I have studied surgery. Professional knowledge. Not just to stare at!"
Liao Mingyu's eloquent words left Yu Xiaoqing speechless. Although the latter did not accuse him verbally, he still couldn't agree with his point of view in his heart. Their personalities are so different that they are destined not to be friends.
"let's go!"
Liao Mingyu waved his hand, turned around and walked out the door. When he was almost at the door, he said without looking back:
"Commander Yu, please remember. They are not only my soldiers, but also my brothers!"
The last words shook the hearts of everyone present. Yu Xiaoqing frowned and looked at him with a complicated expression. He asked himself that he couldn't do this.
What is the purpose of being a soldier? National justice may be a bit far away. Most of them just want to be fed, clothed and paid. What they fear most is to be betrayed by their superiors. After all, who would willingly be someone else’s chess piece?
But with such a commander who treats them like brothers and sisters, who wouldn't sacrifice their lives for him? Liao Mingyu's two actions today are enough to prove everything.
Those soldiers under his command are so lucky, the soldiers of Yu Division couldn't help but think so. At this moment, their eyes looked at Liao Mingyu with respect.
