Lieutenant General Chen was not interested in the corpses of the Japanese at all, and he couldn't hide his disgust at the smelly wounded soldiers. He just glanced at them and verified them. The rest depends on Zhao Sihu's performance!
However, Reporter Xiao was very conscientious, constantly changing angles to take photos of the piled-up corpses of the Japanese. The captured Japanese equipment also captured a large amount of film, and finally asked a group of lightly wounded soldiers to take some close-up photos on the Japanese position. .
The rest is a matter of the wine table. The style of the Kuomintang army has always been to be tight at the front and tight at the rear. Zhao Sihu is naturally not immune to this habit. After preparing a table full of delicacies and game, he always sends snipers into the mountains. hunted game;
After eating, Lieutenant General Chen's mouth was full of oil and he nodded repeatedly. When he left, he also took away two small yellow croakers and a Zuoguan knife that Zhao Sihu secretly gave him. The victory of Moyunling was considered certain!
The public opinion machine of the government was fully activated. In less than a day, word of the victory at Moyunling spread throughout the Great Wall and beyond. The number of enemies annihilated also became the total annihilation of a reinforced brigade of more than 1,800 people, and the seizure of more than 1,000 guns of various types. ;
The photos taken by reporter Xiao were also reprinted by major newspapers. The dense piles of Japanese corpses were extremely shocking and completely ignited the enthusiasm of the Chinese people. More and more people took the initiative to sign up to join the Central Army to fight the Japanese.
Then the government clearly issued a telegram to commend the meritorious officers and awarded General Zhao Sihu a Medal of Blue Sky and White Sun. Colonel Zhao Musheng was promoted to major general for his meritorious service. Zhao Sihu was rewarded with 10,000 legal currency, all soldiers were awarded 50,000 legal currency, and the casualties were compensated with 20,000 yuan!
The rest is just a few hundred words written by a guofu writer. They have one meaning: a certain person will not hesitate to reward meritorious soldiers and hopes that all soldiers will make new achievements.
The commander of a certain division of the Northwest Army in the Fifth War Zone cursed:
"Damn it, I've wiped out one of my divisions and haven't seen any pensions. I haven't even replenished soldiers or ammunition. We, the Northwest Army, are just stepmothers!"
Chief of Staff Major General Chen also looked helpless. He was no longer angry. There is no greater sorrow than heartbreak.
"Commander, it's useless, this is the lice on the bald man's head. He has always spared no effort to suppress us, especially our Northwest Army!
In this winter offensive, we wiped out nearly 2,000 enemies. The entire division suffered more than half casualties. Both the first and second regiments were wiped out. The entire army suffered casualties of more than 10,000 people.
Yes, our record is not as good as that of the 78th Division, but we can’t favor one over the other;
The 78th Division suffered more than 2,000 casualties, adding three Sichuan regiments to them!
Our division suffered more than half casualties, not a single soldier was replenished, and the establishment of one of our regiments was abolished. If we continue to fight like this, all the seeds of our Northwest Army will be wiped out! "
After Major General Chen finished speaking, the two northwest men looked at each other speechlessly, and only each other knew the pain in their hearts.
"Old Chen, we are not fighting the Japanese for someone else!"
Langtou Mountain, 78th Division
Just in response to that sentence, some families were happy and some were sad. A certain division of the Northwest Army was gloomy, while the 78th Division of the Central Army was celebrating the victory happily. The legal currency rewarded by someone was not in arrears, but the commander intercepted 30% according to the rules. Later, the other 70% were all assigned to the division headquarters.
The division headquarters used half of it to compensate the more than 300 soldiers who died and sent it to their families according to the registered addresses. The remaining half was distributed to all soldiers, and half was used as division headquarters funds;
The management of the 78th Division still needs to be different from other regiments of the independent brigade, and other troops cannot see it.
The supplementary troops of the three Sichuan regiments are also in place. Perhaps it is the effect of Zhao Sihu's two gold bars. Lieutenant General Chen, who is responsible for the check, has not tampered with it. They are basically veterans gathered after the troops were disabled, a total of three thousand people. !
"Comrade Zhao Sihu, this time someone is extremely generous. I saw these three thousand supplementary troops, and they are all top-notch veterans;
The equipment is just poor, with an average of three people having one gun, and many people are almost starving!
Fortunately, we have no shortage of equipment and food. I suggest that these people not participate in training and rest for half a month. After their bodies recover, they can be dispersed and replenished to each group. "
"Commissioner Wang, you are the leader. You decide, and I will resolutely carry out your orders!"
Zhao Sihu's attitude has always been very low, and it will not change just because he won the Medal of the Blue Sky and White Sun. This makes Wang Junjie very satisfied.
"Comrade Zhao Sihu, let's start training the troops as planned. Let's set the time for three months. As long as the Japanese don't cause trouble, we can concentrate on training the troops, okay?"
This time the casualties of the regiment were still high, so we must pass the training as soon as possible to improve the combat effectiveness of the troops. "
Zhao Sihu nodded and said:
"Chief, I have no objection. I just have a request. I have just joined the organization and I don't know much about the organization's policies. I would like to ask you to tell me more about the organization's policies when you are free. I wonder if you are willing. ?”
When Wang Junjie heard this, he was even more satisfied. This was originally his job, and now Zhao Sihu took the initiative to get closer to him. Of course he was happy. It was his responsibility to help his comrades make progress.
"Comrade Zhao Sihu, you have made great progress recently. The brigade commander once told me that Zhao Sihu is a good comrade and told me to help you move closer to the organization in terms of thoughts and actions;
Do you think this is a good idea? Let’s study together for an hour every night, and call a few team leaders together. Let’s study together and make progress together, okay? "
Zhao Sihu nodded excitedly and said to himself:
"Finally got a thick leg!"
Wang Junjie is not stupid either. He can certainly see what Zhao Sihu is thinking, and it is understandable that he wants to find some sense of security;
These are human nature. When the water is clear, there will be no fish.
As long as he actively moves closer to the organization and cooperates with his transformation of the 78th Division, he will be a good and trustworthy comrade.
After being supplemented by the 3 Qianchuan Army Corps, the 78th Division's troops increased to more than 8,000 people. This is a lot of force!
Wang Junjie secretly made up his mind to successfully complete the task assigned to him by the brigade commander and completely transform the 78th Division into an iron-blooded division that can reassure the organization and be able to fight. This is the key to completing the mission of the future. The most critical aspect of the Tiaoshan strategy cannot tolerate any sloppiness.
Under the ancient mausoleum city, smoke filled the air
The 338th Regiment's attack on Guring City has entered its third day. The battle is quite lively, but the casualties on both sides are not large.
The attack of Li Yuanzheng's battalion was repulsed by the Japanese again. This was an unknown number of times. Li Yuanzheng was not angry. This was originally planned, just an exhibition match!
In the headquarters of the 338th Regiment, Li Chendong put down his telescope and said to Li Yuanzheng:
"I think the expedition is almost over. The Japanese troops are running low on morale and ammunition. The next round of attacks can be serious.
We can't let General Zhao Sihu be so beautiful, it's time to give Shuzhong a great victory in ancient tombs! "
When Li Yuanzheng heard this, he immediately became excited. If the regiment leader hadn't suppressed him from taking action, he would have already entered the city, and it would not have been Zhao Sihu's turn to steal the show.
"Captain, okay, I'm going to kill those bastards in the city right now?"
"Yuanzheng, what are you thinking about? That's a large group of devils, dogs will bite when they get angry!
Just drive them out of the north gate. We have spent all our money and there is no one to replenish it for us! "
