In the early morning of October 25, 1940, Hankou
Joining Chen Zhigang, who was still hovering in the air, the two planes began to fly towards Qijiang County. At this time, the fighting in the Luojia Mountain area had gradually subsided, and many Japanese soldiers had even begun to cross south to support Hankou. Judging from the corpses of Japanese and puppet troops that can be seen everywhere near Jiashan, the military commander's attack also achieved good results.
The battle on Turtle Mountain on the south bank is still going on. It seems that a military command team has occupied the old fort of the former Qing Dynasty and is still confronting the Japanese army. Although the Japanese army even used 105mm cannons, they still cannot destroy the fort. It is really those Hans The fort built under our supervision is really strong.
Can it be strong? They are all made according to the standards of Qingdao Fortress. Not to mention the 105mm cannon, even the main guns of smaller warships are not easy to use. At that time, they were all built to prevent foreign fleets from attacking Hanyang. Among the specifications It's high, something that poor devils like the Japanese can't even imagine.
But no matter what, the story of the three towns in Wuhan was temporarily over. Wang Yue guided Chen Zhigang to fly towards Qijiang. At night, he relied on the instruments on the Li-2. He was really worried that Chen Zhigang had lost his way. Qijiang There is still a lot of iron ore, which will affect the instrument of the aircraft from time to time. Not to mention at night, it can get lost in broad daylight.
Flying over Qijiang River, Wang Yue did not land directly. Instead, he first asked Zhao Gang to light the torch near the airport, and then guided Chen Zhigang down step by step. When he left, there were 120 soldiers, but when he came back, only 60 were left. A soldier, seeing no more soldiers crawling out of the cabin, everyone who came to greet them fell into silence.
"Salute!" Zhao Gang, Cheng Shifa, Ding Wei, Kong Jie, Zhang Dabiao, Shen Quan, Wang Chengzhu, all saluted the soldiers. At this moment, there were still one hundred and twenty soldiers in front of them, yes, still one. One hundred and twenty people, no one missing.
"Political Commissar Zhao, please contact Kuroshima Morita and ask him to help collect the remains of the soldiers of the 68th Division. I will pay one million rubles. If you can find them all, I will pay two million rubles." Although Wang Yue also killed many people, But when facing the sacrifice of his comrades, he was still in low spirits.
"Okay, Lao Wang, you probably don't know yet. According to the latest intelligence, the students of Yamamoto's army in Hankou immediately set out to support Luojia Mountain after learning that Luojia Mountain was attacked. So this time you Although the Japanese pilot training school was destroyed, the Yamamoto troops were allowed to escape." Zhao Gang nodded, and then conveyed the latest information from the Southern Bureau to Wang Yue.
"Run away, just run away. It's good to kill more than 300 Japs Flying Academy. Lao Li also killed a lot of people. This time, the Japs Army Air Force should be honest for a while." Wang Yue suddenly realized, no wonder he had When scanning, he found that the number of people was wrong. This Yamamoto unit was really active. They were restless even when they ran to Wuhan, and they even went to support Luojia Mountain. Alas, this is fate. 33
Zhao Gang went to find a way to contact Kuroshima Morita, while Li Yunlong took a few old comrades to drink. The losses in this battle were not small, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart. He was riding in the tank with the bent barrel. The tank was so close that it was crashed by two Japanese trucks. They were both trucks loaded with aerial bombs. Fortunately, those aerial bombs were not equipped with fuzes, otherwise Lao Li would also have been killed, and he would have been fighting for more than ten years. This was the first time I was so close to death.
Instead of going to drink with Li Yunlong, Wang Yue returned to the garrison headquarters. He was also reflecting on whether he had been a little impulsive. He encouraged Li Yunlong to expand the scale of the attack, but the temporary 68th Division lost troops and almost even Li Yunlong. After folding in, what Li Yunlong didn't know was that a five-hundred-pound aerial bomb in the truck that crashed into him had a fuse. That is to say, Wang Yue discovered it and put it into the space. Otherwise, Li Yunlong would have already Bye.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the door, I met General Chen waiting here. Alas, this is the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army. Why do you, a general of the national army, run here without any trouble?
"Mr. Wang, the military commander has sent back information about the Hankou incident. Thank you for your hard work!" General Chen took Wang Yue's hands and shook them very hard. The military commander spent a lot of money to attack the Central China Dispatch Army Headquarters. Wanting to frighten the Japanese army, unexpectedly the Eighth Route Army quietly built a bigger one, with hundreds of pilots and hundreds of aircraft. The air force of the Chinese Expeditionary Force cannot be said to be a simple injury this time. I'm afraid it will be even worse than the last air battle in the mountain city.
"General Chen, I have no obligation to refuse. Why have I worked so hard? Compared to the soldiers who sacrificed their lives tonight, we are nothing. Speaking of which, I have one thing to ask you." Wang Yue replied with some shame.
"Mr. Wang, you said, as long as I can do it, I will never refuse!" General Chen replied very firmly.
"I hope the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs can count the names of the Youth Gang, the military commander, and the puppet army who died tonight. Anyway, they are all heroes of the Anti-Japanese War. They cannot just disappear like this." Wang Yue felt that this request was a bit excessive, but he still To put it bluntly, during the eight years of the Anti-Japanese War, millions of soldiers of the National Army died. Neither the National Army nor the Eighth Route Army could record all the martyrs’ information, leaving too many regrets for future generations. .
"I will try my best. Mr. Wang, you also know that many times, many people are unable to leave real information, especially those agents of the Military Command Bureau. Once their identities are exposed, it may be very troublesome." Admiral Chen understood Wang Yue However, this matter was beyond the scope of his duties as Minister of Military and Political Affairs. He was arbitrarily dictating to the Military Command Bureau. Even if Director Dai had no objection, the highest authorities would be unhappy.
"Then how about I pay to redeem the remains of the fallen martyrs?" Wang Yue nodded, but he was still a little reluctant.
"Mr. Wang can rest assured that there is still some relationship between the Military Command Bureau and the Jinling puppet government. It is still possible to let the martyrs bury themselves in peace." General Chen revealed a little bit. Compared with the Shancheng government, the Jinling puppet government is A bigger sieve, the military commander, the central commander, and the Eighth Route Army all have their own people there. Among them, the military commander even has the kind of relationship that reaches the heaven level. Revealing such news to Wang Yue is already a bit over the line.
"I hope to welcome back the remains of the martyrs and enter the Martyrs' Shrine!" Wang Yue shook his head gently.
"Mr. Wang, you know that too many soldiers of the national army are killed every year, and the government is powerless!" General Chen was a little ashamed. As the Minister of Military and Political Affairs, soldiers sacrificed for the country but did not get the honor and compensation they deserved. This is It's really his responsibility.
"I may not be able to control so much else, but I want to take care of what is happening in front of me. I will pay two million rubles. No matter what means are used, I hope that the remains of the martyrs can be returned so that their souls can return to their loyal lives. Temple." Wang Yue still insisted.
"Mr. Wang, I promise you that the government will do its best to handle this matter." General Chen was really moved. He casually threw out two million rubles for the martyrs he had never met. This is not a Things that businessmen can do.
Some people died, but not completely...
