The next battle soon began.
With the arrival of the headquarters of the 6th Preparatory Division and part of the 91st Division, Ji Zhangjian, commander of the 6th Preparatory Division, immediately ordered deputy division commander Shangguan Zhiyun to lead the headquarters of the 11th Preparatory Brigade to take the lead in launching an attack on the Japanese army.
The cry of killing resounded around Nantianpu. At this time, the First Guard Regiment of the Ninth War Zone had been ordered to withdraw from Nantianpu.
Cleaning the battlefield is not just about picking up the firearms left on the battlefield and evacuating them, but also burying the bodies of the comrades who died around you, and also burying the bodies left behind by Little Japan. , otherwise it will stink.
However, Zhang Tianhai only ordered the main force to complete the first two steps, and left the rest to non-main forces to clean up, such as the supply camp and the like.
"Hey, Lao Zhou, you said that our supply camp was originally responsible for the logistics, moving and lifting. But now it's better, we have to move the corpse of the little Japanese." A young soldier from the supply camp said.
"Stop talking!" As he said that, the veteran named "Lao Zhou" patted his military cap. "If you went to the battlefield, you might be lying here and not even return home. No, these were all brought back by the brothers in the combat camp with their lives. We are doing the logistics for them, so what? If you have the ability, just go to the regiment leader and tell him that you want to go to the combat camp. If that doesn't work, go to Our Battalion Commander Zhu can do it too."
"Ah? Lao Zhou, aren't you kidding me? If I go to see our Battalion Commander Zhu, I will definitely get scolded." The recruit scratched his head and said.
"You are overthinking it. In fact, in our regiment, the supply camp is also an important source of soldiers for the combat troops. No matter what, the soldiers who have served in our supply camp are easier to train than the recruits who have just joined the army, right? If you really want to go, Then report it to the company commander or battalion commander, there will be no problem." said the veteran.
"Hmm..." The recruit nodded.
"Don't mention it. In our regiment, the casualty rate of combat troops is really high. Few of the people who were familiar with me at the time have come back alive. Boy, if you go, you will have to I don't expect you to come back safely." Lao Zhou reminded the recruits.
"Stop talking, we are all ready. My mother has told me a long time ago that if we want to fight the Japanese properly, we must drive the little Japanese out of China as soon as possible." The recruit said very seriously.
"Okay, since you are mentally prepared, that's fine." The veteran nodded and continued to work.
…
Although this little devil was beaten like a dog in front of the First Guard Regiment, in front of the Sixth Reserve Division, whose weapons were not as good as theirs, their combat effectiveness was quite fierce.
"Kill!! Shoot! Shoot!!" the junior commanders of the Japanese army were shouting, holding up their swords and looking fierce.
The Japanese soldiers occupying the strongholds were constantly shooting at the national officers and soldiers, and their tactical actions were very sophisticated.
"Quick!! Occupy a favorable position immediately and counterattack!! Find a bunker! Follow the usual training!!" The company commander and platoon leader of the national army shouted anxiously. Those are all their subordinates, but they are all They are good brothers who get along day and night.
If these irregular actions of their brothers resulted in heavy casualties, how could they, as officers, feel complacent?
In short, in the face of the superior firepower of the Japanese army, the Chinese army was simply beaten and unable to raise its head.
Zhang Tianhai, who was watching this scene from the top of the mountain in the distance, even clenched his fists slightly.
"What a fucking coward! It's a pity that I, Zhang Yulin, don't have any artillery shells in my hand. Otherwise, I have to let them taste what a fucking cannonball is!" Zhang Tianhai was cursing softly, which was a very It was a sign of weakness. We clearly knew that the enemy was afraid of cannon fire, but there were no cannonballs.
"Team leader, if our team fights this battle, we will definitely not be so useless." Xu Xun next to him also agreed.
"In a war, someone will always die. Either the enemy dies, we die, or our friendly forces die." Zhang Tianhai sighed helplessly, "This battle is their home ground for preparing the Sixth Division, and we can't take it away. It has lost the limelight, not to mention that in China, it is not that the first regiment of our guards will not be able to fight without us."
"Yes, regimental leader. I understand the humble position." Xu Xun responded.
In fact, from Zhang Tianhai's point of view, he wanted the officers and soldiers of the First Guard Regiment to come forward to support him. After all, we are all Chinese.
However, he changed his mind and realized that even their first guard regiment was already in very short supply of weapons, equipment and ammunition after the Battle of Nantianpu: Being a good person also requires capital. If in this support operation, If you have used up all your artillery shells, then when it is your turn to go to the battlefield next time, who will be able to provide artillery support to them?
Artillery support seems to be a very simple thing in modern times, but it was not easy in the Republic of China. Let alone the lack of artillery shells, even if there is an artillery, it is not necessarily easy. thing.
Taking a closer look at the Wanjialing battlefield, apart from the independent artillery battalion of their first guard regiment, it seems that the only one with independent artillery battalions is the 74th Army, right?
Even if the 74th Army had artillery, it would not necessarily mean that Yu Jishi would use artillery shells on the first regiment of their guards. Therefore, Zhang Tianhai saw this very clearly.
"Forget it, let them fight! Our troops have withdrawn to Chenguanzhuang now, right?" Zhang Tianhai asked.
"Reporting to the regiment, according to normal circumstances, the main force of our regiment should have all withdrawn to Chenguanzhuang and have begun to rest and recuperate." Xu Xun reported.
"Yes." Zhang Tianhai nodded, "Let the brothers have a good rest! After all, these days are indeed very hard, and there may be more important battles to fight next. As for Xiao Xu, please work harder today and tomorrow, and accompany you Let me observe the situation on the front line."
"Yes, regimental leader!" Xu Xun responded, "But don't you want to keep an eye on the affairs within the regiment?"
Xu Xun is Zhang Tianhai's adjutant and has the duty and responsibility to remind him.
After Xu Xun's reminder, Zhang Tianhai came to his senses and said, "Then give me the order! Starting tomorrow, deputy commander Guo will be in charge of the rest and reorganization work in the regiment until I come back."
Zhang Tianhai's purpose is also very clear, which is to hand over the rear to Guo Qiliang, whom he trusts most, while he himself is paving the way for the next stage of the battle.
"Yes! Regiment leader! I will notify the security company immediately!" Xu Xun replied.
Upon hearing that Xu Xun was going to notify his security company, Zhang Tianhai frowned: "Wait a minute, why are you calling the security company?"
"How about just the two of us? That can't be done, right? The front line is too chaotic. If we're not careful, our first guard regiment will be leaderless." Xu Xun said it euphemistically, but he also spoke the truth.
"Why call the security company? The security company has only fought a few battles? Go and get the secret agent company for me!" Zhang Tianhai said in a deep voice, obviously this was an order.
"Yes! Sir!" Xu Xun also knew that the secret service company was the regiment's favorite. Without the regiment's order, he really couldn't mobilize the secret service company.
