"Your kid's idea is really unconstrained. When you put it like that, I think the Japanese army's combat direction is more like our 15th Group Army." Guan Linzheng said with a bitter smile.
"There is no such thing as a wild idea! In my humble opinion, I do think that the Japanese army wants to capture Changsha, but when it comes to specific actions, they will take the next step to solve the 15th Group first. No matter what He said that as long as the Fifteenth Army was still on the south bank of the Xinqiang River, they would not be able to reach Changsha at all. But if the Fifteenth Army was eliminated, they would undoubtedly be on the fast track to the southward invasion. After all, there would be no stumbling blocks. "Zhang Tianhai explained.
"Everyone understands the truth, but I admire your determined tone. Are you so confident every time you fight?" Guan Linzheng said as he picked up the wine glass again.
Seeing this, Zhang Tianhai picked up the wine glass and touched it lightly with Guan Linzheng, and then said: "Senior, in fact, Yulin's judgment direction can only be based on the direction of the Japanese army's advance. After all, many times, We clearly know what the Japanese army is going to do, but we have no way to do anything about it. This is a conspiracy, an upright conspiracy..."
"There is no way to do this. The combat effectiveness of our national army is too poor. After Emperor Xianfeng of the Qing Dynasty, China was invaded by foreign powers. At that time, it began to decline. There is nothing we can do about this. More can only be done I hope that our descendants will no longer suffer from the pain of war and can raise their heads upright and be human beings." When Guan Linzheng said this, there was a light in his eyes, and this light is called "hope"!
Zhang Tianhai can understand Guan Linzheng because he is no longer the young man who has no experience in life in the Republic of China. On the contrary, he can now personally experience and feel the strong desire of this generation to strengthen himself - the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed. It is the helplessness of this generation. They must create an environment for their descendants and compatriots to survive!
"Senior, the blood of Nanjing is vivid in my mind. I also escaped from Nanjing. At that time, I had just assumed the position of regiment leader, and there were only more than 2,800 people under my command. If it hadn't been for Commander Tang Shengzhi's order at that time, The name of our regiment, otherwise, I would also be one of the 300,000 dead souls in Nanjing... The 88th Division, which is also a German weapon division with us, except for Sun Yuanliang who ran away, all other troops were wiped out. To be honest, I feel ashamed. At that time, I thought about disobeying the order and staying without authorization, thinking that I could save more people, but... alas..." Perhaps it was because of drinking high-grade soju, Zhang Tianhai's His emotions seemed to be brought back to the time when he retreated from Nanjing, and his eyes were already slightly moist.
For a moment, his thoughts seemed to go back to the time when he first came to this era. The simplicity and righteousness of the brothers, and the enemy's machine guns and cannons, disrupted everything.
"Yulin, we can still sit at this table and drink wine now. This is fate, this is fate... Hey, I did not participate in the Nanjing Defense War. We were in Peking at the time, participating in the Anti-Japanese War on Pinghan Road. We were just one In less than a month, Baoding fell. Sun Lianzhong's and I's troops both sacrificed more than one-third. It's a pity that we didn't participate in the defense of Nanjing. It was really hard for you at that time." With that, Guan Linzheng patted him gently. Pat Zhang Tianhai on the shoulder.
"Senior, no matter what, we must be united on the line of resistance against Japan. As long as our theater guard troops are on the south bank of the Xinqiang River for one day, Yu Lin will have nothing to say. At that time in Nanjing, it was these beasts of the Sixth Division The massacre that was launched first. Therefore, I tried every means, even dragging down my senior’s 15th Army, so that I could win the battle without any difficulty." As he said that, Zhang Tianhai said lightly Sighed softly.
"To be honest, you fought this battle beautifully. On this point, I want to report to Commander Xue personally. But please don't worry, anyway, as long as it involves our Xinqiang River battle, our Fifteenth Group Army There is absolutely nothing wrong with it." Guan Linzheng himself has the kind of straightforward temper of a soldier, and seeing that Zhang Tianhai is also a sweet-tempered person, he simply agreed.
So, just like that, at the wine table, Zhang Tianhai and Guan Linzheng actually reached an agreement to agree on offense and defense.
During this drinking session, both Guan and Zhang drank very happily, but in the end they were on the verge of being half drunk, not fully drunk. After all, they were both frontline commanders tasked with defending the New Wall Henan Province. military imperatives on the shore.
"Senior... we are drinking together, but I have lost some equipment, so you have to say a nice word to me, otherwise my junior will suffer a lot in this battle." Zhang Tianhai was a little worried. Tongue said.
"Absolutely no problem... This great victory fought by your theater security forces can also be said to have cleared... a major obstacle for our Fifteenth Group Army. And as I said, after this time, I think The Japanese army will no longer deploy troops so close to the Xinqiang River, which is also a good thing for us. I can't let you suffer a big loss, can I?" Guan Linzheng looked very happy, after all, for For him, Zhang Tianhai's arrival this time also gave him a lot of support.
"Senior, after seeing you thousands of miles away, there is a farewell. This time, Yulin has delicious food and drink at your place. Next time senior comes to the enemy headquarters in front of our theater guard force, there will be delicious food and drink as well. Entertaining. Hahahahaha..." As he spoke, Zhang Tianhai laughed heartily. After all, in his opinion, this trip was not in vain.
Due to drinking, Zhang Tianhai was a little shaky when he was riding, which made the people around him who had not drank a little scared. Of course, this cannot be blamed on them for being timid, after all. The person riding on the horse was the former enemy commander-in-chief of the theater guard force. If he accidentally fell off and broke his body, wouldn't it be a big loss to the theater guard force?
"Commander, you must sit tight. This horse will not be slow if it starts running in a while." As Zhang Tianhai's adjutant, Xu Xun felt that he had the obligation to remind his commander, otherwise if something goes wrong, That is also a very troublesome thing.
"Okay, don't worry." Zhang Tianhai made an "OK" gesture.
"Senior, junior, please retire first. After you go back and organize the troops, you will report to the senior." After saying that, Zhang Tianhai immediately gave Guan Lin a military salute.
Guan Linzheng also lightly returned the military salute.
