"Lao Zhang, how is the war on the front line?" Guo Qiliang asked nervously as soon as he saw Zhang Tianhai returning to the regiment headquarters.
After all, the sound of gunfire has never stopped since four o'clock. Looking at Zhang Tianhai's dusty and embarrassed appearance, the frontline battlefield is definitely not easy.
"Fortunately, we repelled the fierce Japanese attack. The little Japanese's pig attack tactics were indeed too fierce. After attacking the outpost position, the officers and soldiers of the first battalion began to suffer a large number of casualties." Zhang Tianhai took off his hat and took a photo He patted the dust on it, and his face was already full of exhaustion at this time.
"So what's the situation in the first battalion now?" Guo Qiliang asked.
"More than two hundred brothers were injured or killed. Most of these casualties occurred during hand-to-hand combat." Zhang Tianhai sighed. This was due to the limitations of the times. If everyone was holding a submachine gun, these Japanese soldiers would not be able to fight. Speaking of bayonets, even getting close is a big problem.
Guo Qiliang pondered for a moment and said: "I have long heard that the Japanese army's bayonet fighting tactics are very superb. They are really famous for their reputation... If the Japanese army's follow-up reinforcements arrive, our regiment will probably suffer a big loss. …”
Zhang Tianhai picked up his washbasin and asked Xu Sangou to fetch water. Then he sat down and said, "This is why I don't want to stick to the soup. The advantage of our regiment is its fierce firepower and many veterans. Weaknesses It’s just that the size of the army is small, and our regiment cannot afford it in a war of attrition. Now Commander Xu insists that we stick to the soup and engage in positional warfare and a war of attrition. This is our biggest weakness..."
"Then what are your plans next?" Guo Qiliang's face also flashed deep worry.
Zhang Tianhai thought for a while and said: "First, send a capable force to find out the enemy's movements, and the most important thing is to find out where the Japanese army's camp is; second, let all the artillery battalion's artillery aim at the Japanese army's Station, fire the artillery on time at three o'clock in the morning, and shoot out all the shells! If their camp is not razed to the ground, I will feel uneasy..."
It has to be said that Zhang Tianhai's move is very poisonous - according to the report of the artillery battalion commander Zhao Chengge, the artillery battalion still has a base number of artillery shells, which means there are still 80 artillery shells. On average, each gun still has There are ten rounds available!
From top to bottom, the Japanese army believed that the National Army in Linyi did not have artillery support. In this rush in the middle of the night, they were unprepared, and they did not know how many people would be killed alive.
Zhang Tianhai's bet from beginning to end was that the Japanese army underestimated the enemy and was careless. After all, in his understanding, the Japanese army in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, without exception, had a feeling of pride and underestimated the enemy!
Indeed, the Japanese army also fought too many victorious battles on the land of China - whether it was the September 18th Incident, the July 7th Incident, the Battle of Songhu, or the Battle of Nanjing, among these battles and incidents, not a single one was defeated. It does not end with the Japanese victory!
Although the Japanese army suffered a lot of casualties in the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Nanjing, they still won, right?
Precisely because the Japanese army had achieved victory in a series of combat operations, the Japanese invaders all believed that these Chinese troops were just chickens and dogs. Facing the front of their "Imperial Japanese Army", what would they do? The results are predictable.
Other Japanese troops thought so, let alone the Fifth Division, which once faced the main force of the 200,000-strong Second Theater Division at Xinkou with half a division.
More Japanese troops believed that the destruction of the Sakamoto headquarters was a coincidence. The Chinese army was a blind cat who met a dead mouse, that is, it was a matter of luck.
Only a few people, such as Katano Sadami and Sato Masaki, realized the seriousness of the problem. Judging from today's battle, their opponent was more difficult than imagined.
At this time, Katano Sadami's reinforcements had joined Sato Masaki's troops. Now nearly three thousand Japanese troops were stationed in the west of Yutou Town. They had artillery and tanks. Although the troops suffered heavy losses, they still had guns in their hands. Weapons such as light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers are all available. You can imagine how powerful this unit is.
"Send a capable force to find out the enemy's movements? But it seems that the only one in our regiment who can take on this task is the special agent company. Now that you have left the special agent company in Lanling again, I'm afraid it will be difficult this time." Guo Qiliang He shook his head and said.
"Who said it was difficult?" A pleasant female voice suddenly came from outside the door.
As the saying goes, if Cao Cao arrives, Cao Cao will arrive.
As soon as Guo Qiliang finished speaking, Zheng Man came in with Liu Houming from outside the regiment headquarters tent.
"Zheng Man, why are you here?!" Zhang Tianhai was truly surprised to see Zheng Man, and there was a hint of questioning in his words. After all, on this battlefield, anything can happen!
"I don't worry about you." Zheng Man walked up to Zhang Tianhai and said with a smile on his lips.
Looking at Zheng Man's pretty face, Zhang Tianhai was not as happy as he expected. Instead, he was a little angry. He resisted the urge to be angry and said to everyone with a forced smile: "You guys wait here for a moment."
After saying that, Zhang Tianhai pulled Zheng Man out. Seeing his movements, he did not dare to use force, but he must pull Zheng Man out.
Looking at the two people in stunned silence, Guo Qiliang just shrugged helplessly. As for the deputy commander Zhou Fangjie, he had already been assigned to take charge of the defense of Tangtou Town. It could be said that Zhou Fangjie was fully responsible for the defense at night.
"Chief of Staff, do you think they are going to fight?" Liu Houming approached Guo Qiliang with a wicked smile and the word "gossip" written on his face.
Who is Guo Qiliang? He must be a serious person. He glared at Liu Houming and said, "Adjutant Liu, it's not a good thing that this is not the Speaker. Don't you think our leader is the kind of person who can beat his wife?" "
"Hehe...hehe..." Liu Houming smiled awkwardly, but he was embarrassed and seemed to feel that something was wrong with the chief of staff's words - whether he would beat his wife was one thing, but whether he could beat her or not was another matter. It's another story.
The camera turned to Zhang Tianhai again.
In the darkness, Zheng Man looked at Zhang Tianhai's figure inexplicably, seeming a little at a loss. In her memory, this was the first time she saw Zhang Tianhai looking so angry.
Zhang Tianhai pulled Zheng Man to a place with relatively few people, then took a deep breath and said, "Why are you here? Do you know that this is a battlefield! Nearly a regiment of Japanese troops are about to attack our regiment. Onslaught! If something goes wrong with you, what should I do?!"
As he asked, Zhang Tianhai became a little angry unconsciously, which immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding officers and soldiers.
Facing everyone's surprised looks, Zhang Tianhai turned to look at them and shouted: "Get out of here! No one is allowed within thirty meters!!"
"Yes! The regiment!!" These big-headed soldiers naturally recognized the voice of the regiment leader, so they quickly ran away. The movement was not very fast. Who dared to hear such an unhappy voice from the regiment leader? To get into trouble?
The point is, it’s not necessary…
After a while, the surrounding area was cleared.
Seeing Zhang Tianhai like this, would Zheng Man not know why Zhang Tianhai was angry? So she decided to take a preemptive strike and used a woman's sharpest weapon - tears.
I saw a drop of tear gently slipping from the corner of Zheng Man's eye. Seeing this scene, Zhang Tianhai was a little bit dumbfounded but also a little heartbroken: I didn't even start to yell, but I started to shed tears. What's this? It’s like you’re the victim, and I’m the victim, okay? How frightened was I when you suddenly came here?
At this moment, the tears falling one after another on Zheng Man's face, coupled with her beautiful face, can only make people think of one word: pear blossom with rain.
Zheng Man didn't speak, he just lowered his head and cried silently, looking very aggrieved.
After a while, Zhang Tianhai was defeated by Zheng Man's appearance. He said with a mixture of laughter and tears: "I really admire you. Stop crying now. Can't you talk to me if you have something to say? I'm not trying to hurt you."
From an angle that Zhang Tianhai couldn't see, the corner of Zheng Man's mouth slightly raised in a proud arc, and then immediately returned to its original state. She raised her head and asked with a pitiful look: "You really don't want to give birth to me?" Are you angry?"
Zhang Tianhai still looked like he couldn't smile: "What's there to be angry about? I'm just too worried about you. You said you are carrying a child alone and running around. Although your belly doesn't look big now, you We also need to think about our future and our children. What if something happens to you and you leave me alone?"
As soon as she heard this, Zheng Man couldn't help laughing. She hugged Zhang Tianhai and said, "Since I received the telegram from the Linyi Frontline Combat Command yesterday afternoon, I asked Liu The adjutant brought me to Yi."
Just when Zhang Tianhai was thinking about how to punish Liu Houming, Zheng Man added: "You, don't think about how to punish Adjutant Liu. I forced him to send me here. When he came over, But they all came by carriage."
"Aren't the telegrams from the Linyi Frontline Operations Command all secret reports? How do you know?" Zhang Tianhai said with a frown.
Zheng Man didn't say anything, just hugged Zhang Tianhai tightly, and then said softly: "Don't forget who I am, and also, the radio station our regiment stayed in Lanling can also hear the battle on the front line in Linyi A signal from the command center.”
"Well..." Zhang Tianhai nodded slightly, then put his hands around Zheng Man's waist and said, "Next time, don't be so bad."
"Actually, I planned to stay in Linyi City and wait for you to come back from the victory to give you a surprise." Zheng Man murmured.
"Then why are you here suddenly?" Zhang Tianhai asked softly.
"It's because I know Commander Xu's order for our regiment to defend Tangtou Town. Now the main force of Huang Weigang's 38th Division of the 59th Army has been stationed north of Tangtou, and the independent cavalry brigade of the 59th Army has also The 180th Division of Liu Zhensan of the 59th Army has already stationed in Tangshan Col. The 180th Division of Liu Zhensan of the 59th Army has also stationed in Tongfoguanzhuang. The main force of the 40th Army has also assembled in the direction of Yihe River. This encirclement will be formed soon." Zheng Man's voice was as calm as water, yet filled with infinite tenderness.
"So, you also know that this is a central flowering plan? Then why are you still running here stupidly? I will ask Liu Houming to send you back in a while. After all, cannonballs don't have eyes, even if you have a little accident. I'm afraid I won't be happy in this life." Human hearts are made of flesh, and Zhang Tianhai is no exception. Indeed, he has a tough guy side, but he also has a tender side. Facing such an infatuated woman , how can he bear to criticize harshly?
"I know, so I want to be with you." Zheng Man's words were full of determination, and there was no room for rejection.
"No, you still have to go back. Even if I die on the battlefield, I can still leave you a baby and a thought." Zhang Tianhai said, gently stroking Zheng Man's long hair.
"If you die on the battlefield, it probably won't be interesting for me to live alone with my baby. It's better for us to go to hell together. Even if we die, we can be a pair of hard-working mandarin ducks..." As he said, Zheng Man She raised her head and smiled softly. The smile was as warm as the spring breeze and very charming. Her eyes seemed to contain brilliant stars.
Zhang Tianhai's heart softened and he just hugged Zheng Man.
Under the starry sky that night, Zhang Tianhai heard the most touching words of love in his life, and it was also the thought that made him realize that he would definitely live up to her in this life.
…
However, just like the happy time, the warm time is also short-lived.
After a while, Zheng Man pushed Zhang Tianhai away and said: "Yu Lin, let's go back! Don't let them wait too long. I just stood outside and heard it. You were still thinking about how to fight. I'm worried about you. Now I've brought the special agent company back to you. Let's go back quickly!"
"Yeah." Zhang Tianhai looked at Zheng Man's face and smiled softly: What more could a husband ask for when he has such a wife?
…
After a while, Zhang Tianhai took Zheng Man's hand and went back to the tent at the regiment headquarters.
"What's wrong? Have the young couple finished their quarrel?" Guo Qiliang joked.
"Go, go, are you kidding like them?" Zhang Tianhai joked with a smile. He was in a very good mood now. Even after a day of fighting with the Japanese army, he didn't feel tired.
"Hehe." Guo Qiliang scratched his head and smiled.
"Okay, don't say anything anymore, let's issue the formal combat order!" Zhang Tianhai said seriously.
As soon as they heard that the leader was about to give an order, everyone around them immediately stood up.
"Now I order you, Liu Houming, to immediately lead the special agent company and deputy battalion commander Xu Qian of the artillery battalion to search for the Japanese positions west of Tangtou Town. Remember not to alert the enemy! After discovering the Japanese positions, immediately return to the regiment headquarters to report the situation!" Zhang Tianhai said calmly. said the voice.
"Yes! Regiment!" Liu Houming responded loudly. After all this time, he finally had a chance to go to the battlefield. When Zhang Tianhai ordered him to stay in Lanling, it was not an ordinary injustice to see him like that.
Now that he is fine, he finally has a chance to show off his talents, so Liu Houming is not ordinary happy at this time...
"Xu Sangou, go to the artillery camp immediately and call Deputy Battalion Commander Xu over here!" Zhang Tianhai directly ordered Xu Sangou behind him.
