Night slowly enveloped Xuzhou City, and the troops of the First Regiment directly under the Third War Zone had assembled in front of Xuzhou Railway Station.
More than 4,000 troops, together with twelve artillery pieces, grenades equipped by each company, as well as the mortars of the machine gun company, the Soloton machine guns of the small artillery company, various light and heavy machine guns, and the cavalry battalion The horses, etc., don’t look particularly spectacular.
When the other troops guarding here saw this, they couldn't help but be jealous.
Responsible for the military police force and logistics management force of the fifth theater area guarding here.
"Damn it, the equipment of the direct line of the Central Military Army is really good. You can get whatever you want." A military police company commander on guard said in a low voice.
"That's right, grenades, mortars, Qiwu mountain cannons, light and heavy machine guns, and all kinds of small artillery. Hey, there's everything you need. I don't know what our commander was thinking, but he transferred this unit." The deputy company commander next to him whispered.
"Yes, there are so many cavalry. This size is not a regiment. It must be at least a brigade." The company commander also muttered softly.
"Company commander, I heard that they were transferred to the first combat zone. Is that right?" the deputy company commander asked in a low voice.
"Yes, if we go to Kaifeng at this time, aren't we going to be transferred to the First War Zone? It's a pity that we finally have such an elite unit in the Fifth War Zone, and we actually transferred it." The military police company commander His tone was filled with infinite regret.
"The commander-in-chief doesn't want to give up Xuzhou, right? First transfer all the elite troops, and then leave some miscellaneous troops to defend Xuzhou?" The deputy company commander of the gendarmerie muttered in a low voice, for fear that others would hear it.
Spreading rumors and shaking the morale of the military is a serious crime, and you will be shot!
"Okay, stop thinking nonsense. I've heard that this unit is the most elite first regiment of the Third War Zone in our Fifth War Zone. They won a big victory in Linyi, attacked Tangtou Town, and directly beheaded Jun Sakamoto. "It's just because of the commander's disobedience that we didn't praise him so much." The commander of the military police company said with a face full of gossip, don't think that the old man doesn't gossip anymore, it's just that the direction of the gossip is different.
"Hey, I've heard about this too. After the Tangtou Battle, I went directly to the Yixian battlefield after a short supplement. I heard that they suffered heavy losses on the Yixian front line, and even the regiment leader was seriously injured. Replace it." The deputy company commander also said with a face full of gossip.
"It seems that they have retreated to the rear to rest, and they probably won't come back in a short time. We in Xuzhou, we don't know if we can take care of ourselves this time..." The military police company commander sighed.
Everyone in Xuzhou knows that the fighting on the frontline is very fierce now. Even the northeastern barrier of Taierzhuang and even the enemy troops are seen north of Fangshan. Xuzhou is short of troops, especially elite troops!
In the eyes of these uninformed soldiers, in terms of equipment, the first regiment directly under the Third Theater was the most well-equipped and most combat-effective regiment in the entire Fifth Theater battle order.
Does being transferred at this time mean anything? Only a few discerning people could see clearly that they had retreated to the rear to rest.
The temporary retreat at this time does not mean giving up the front line, but for the next part of the battle to annihilate more enemies!
That's all.
…
"salute!!"
As a car roared, Liu Houming, who was waiting in the queue for the arrival of the group, immediately shouted.
For a moment, his arms were as tall as a forest! Very neat!
This shows how high Zhang Tianhai’s prestige is among the Zhiyi Regiment!
This prestige is achieved on the battlefield, and cannot be obtained by relying on pressure from superiors and subordinates.
From top to bottom of the regiment, even ordinary squad leaders and deputy squad leaders are die-hard members who are willing to follow Zhang Tianhai to fight!
If Zhang Tianhai points to the east, they will never go west. Even if they are asked to follow Tang Enbo's legion headquarters at this moment, they will follow!
Well, of course, Zhang Tianhai would not do such a crazy thing, it just shows his high prestige...
After the car stopped, Zhang Tianhai got out of the car, looked around at everyone, then gave a military salute in return, and then motioned for everyone to put down their hands and be quiet.
For a moment, the huge open space was silent except for distant sounds!
"Brothers, everyone, listen! Our regiment is retreating to Kaifeng this time not to escape from the front line, but to prepare the army for battle! For the next wave of counterattack, the army is ready for battle! Kill!!" Zhang Tianhai's last sentence The words were almost shouted.
"kill!!!"
"kill!!!"
"kill!!!"
The thunderous shouts resounded through the Xuzhou Railway Station in the night, and the surrounding military police troops couldn't help but be moved: This is an absolutely elite force! They are here to organize the army, not to escape! But to prepare for the battle!
Just when murderous intent filled the sky, Zhang Tianhai suddenly raised his right hand and then clenched it into a fist. The entire Xuzhou Railway Station fell silent.
"Brothers! Get on the bus!!" Zhang Tianhai shouted loudly, and the entire team of more than 4,000 people began to board the bus according to the previously arranged queue.
…
"I really want to follow their troops into battle to kill the enemy. It's a pity. We are military police troops and we are destined to fight to defend Xuzhou." The company commander of the military police troops who was watching this scene sighed.
"Yes, who says it's not?" the deputy company commander next to him sighed. The warm-blooded atmosphere can easily infect those around him.
…
In the night, more than 4,000 officers and soldiers of the First Regiment directly under the Third War Zone took a train to Kaifeng and began the next stage of their journey!
…
It was also on this day, April 21, that the main force of the Japanese reinforcements met with the enemies of the Isogaya Lianjie Department who were trapped in Yi County, and organized a large force to invade south.
There were about 3,000 enemies in this unit's southern invasion, and they integrated about a regiment of Japanese troops with eight tanks and vehicles, and fought fiercely with the national troops on the Taodun line in the southwest of Hongshan.
The gunshots of fierce fighting continued all day long.
On April 22, the enemies of Linyi and Yixian wanted to meet up at Taierzhuang, so the army immediately attacked the company's Fangshan Mountain northeast of Taierzhuang.
On the same day, three towns in Wuhan and Hankou.
This day was like any other, with the early morning hustle and bustle making the city lively early in the morning.
Early that morning, Zheng Man and his father Zheng Boqu went to Wuchang Nanluo Alley.
The wheels of the car slowly turned forward. Zheng Man was still wearing the lieutenant colonel uniform. He looked very energetic and capable.
An ugly daughter-in-law always has to meet her parents-in-law. What's more, this daughter-in-law is not only good-looking, but also not generally capable, right?
"Father, you have met Zhang Yulin's father, right?" Zheng Man asked Zheng Boqu who was sitting next to him. Obviously, she was a little nervous.
Zheng Boqu nodded slightly and said: "Yes, I have met your father-in-law. He is a very sensible person. You can rest assured, face it calmly, and be polite. Never lose me, Zheng Boqu." Family face, do you understand?"
"My daughter understands." Zheng Man nodded. She was always a little subconsciously afraid of Yan's father.
