In the afternoon, after the 37th Division was destroyed, the division commander was captured alive and handed over to the superiors. The soldiers of the four infantry divisions on the front line all lay on the ground and fell asleep in this hell-like environment.
The battle that lasted for three days made them physically and mentally exhausted. If it were not supported by the faith in their hearts, they would have fallen long ago.
"Commander, this!"
Wang Wu wanted to wake up the soldiers, saying that sleeping on the ground was unethical, but Su Yu stopped him. He looked at Wang Wu and said, "Let the brothers have a good sleep and tell the cooking team to prepare dinner."
"Yes, Commander."
Su Yu looked at the soldiers lying on the ground sleeping in a mess, and a sudden sadness surged in his heart. Every inch of mountains and rivers, every inch of blood, a hundred thousand young people and a hundred thousand soldiers.
These people are also the beloved sons of their parents, but now in order to shoulder the responsibilities on their shoulders, in order to shoulder the dignity of the country and the honor of the military, they have to join the battlefield, serve the country, and protect their families.
This battle showed the majesty of the guard force and the style of the Daxia soldiers.
The Propaganda Department was also obtaining materials. They also shed tears when they saw the tired soldiers lying in front of the corpses and falling asleep. This is the real hero.
evening.
Su Yu personally came to the logistics cooking class to help. The senior commanders, the army chief of staff, and Wang Wu were all preparing dinner. They wanted the soldiers to drink millet porridge and eat white flour steamed buns as soon as they woke up.
Wang Wu lit a fire and asked Su Yu, "Commander, how should we march next?"
"Retreat together with the Xue Jiajun," Su Yu said while carrying water. "If the Xue Jiajun hadn't blocked the two divisions of the Dongyang Kingdom for us, we wouldn't have been able to defeat the three infantry divisions of the Japs so easily."
"yes!"
Wang Wu also said with emotion, "If the people next to us are not the Xue Jiajun, but other military governors, they will not block these two infantry divisions for us. They are probably eager for these two divisions to come to our defense area."
"So," Su Yu continued, "this is the importance of allies. In this battle, our security force has established the hearts of the people in Daxia. I believe that it will develop faster in the future."
"Old Chen."
Wang Wu shouted to the commander of the 31st Infantry Division, "Your division has indeed inherited your commander's will. It is so desperate to charge up to the peak that even my second army cannot outrun you."
"Hahaha, Commander Wang is joking."
Chen Jie put down the steamer in his hand and said, "In order for us to run fast, our military commander carries weights for five kilometers every day and practices short-distance running. Our military commander said that running fast has two major benefits."
"Oh, tell me."
Wang Wu asked curiously.
"If you lose a battle, you can escape quickly and the enemy will not be able to catch you," Chen Jie said with a smile. "If you win a battle, the friendly forces can't outrun us. We can take the lead in cleaning the battlefield and seizing good things."
"Look!"
Wang Wu looked at Su Yu and said, "I would say that Blind Guo is blind in his eyes but not in his heart. His ability to scheme against people is amazing."
"Hahaha."
"Hurry up!"
Su Yu urged with a smile, "It's almost meal time. Three hours have passed since the end of the war. I believe many soldiers are about to wake up. Let's get the food ready quickly."
"Soon, soon."
The cooking squad leader said with sweat on his face, "It will be ready soon."
In the evening, after four or five hours of rest, most of the frontline soldiers were up. Looking at the white-flour steamed buns and millet porridge in front of them, their mouths watered.
"Come and eat when you're hungry, it's enough."
Immediately afterwards, more and more soldiers began to line up to get food, and then squatted aside to eat. Next to them were the corpses of the little Japanese and the coagulated blood, but in the eyes of the soldiers, there was no feeling.
After eating, the soldiers began to stretch their muscles and clean the battlefield.
At the headquarters, Su Yu also obtained the statistics of battle losses. Because the soldiers carried out a large charge this time and did not follow the plan, the time was shortened from 7 days to 3 days, so the casualties were not small.
"Our army suffered 5,117 casualties," Wang Wu said heartbrokenly. "More than 25,000 Japs were wiped out. As for this figure, it is only about the same, because there are still many little Japs who were blown into a pulp and cannot be counted at all. .”
"The supplies seized include 7,700 rifles, 210 light machine guns, and 19 heavy machine guns. As for the artillery, almost all of them were blown up and are useless," Wang Wu said with a regretful expression.
"In this battle," Su Yu said heartbrokenly, "our security force lost over 10,000 yuan!"
"yes!"
Wang Wu was also distressed and said, "In order to annihilate the three divisions of the Little Devils, our army suffered no less than eight thousand casualties. As for the other two armies, the situation is probably a little better than mine."
"Withdraw!"
Su Yu continued, "I have informed the Xue family army that they no longer need to contain the Japs' infantry division. In another seven hours, the Japs will arrive in our defense area, so we retreat now and take a detour from Yanjing back to Jinling. This battle, Our Daxia National League team lost, but our security forces won."
Soon, Su Yu began to evacuate with large forces, and the Fourth Guard Army from another battlefield also began to evacuate and rendezvous in Yanjing, because if they did not withdraw, they would be made dumplings by the little devils.
...
On August 6, the three armies under the garrison force met in Yanjing. At this time, the people in Yanjing were empty, and even the court had moved away. How could the people stay here? Looking at this thousand-year-old capital, Su Yu was heartbroken Feel something.
"You damn ones, instead of fighting the Japanese, come here to rob a bank."
At this time, a noise caught Su Yu's attention. He saw a group of soldiers in green military uniforms gunning down the bank. Boxes of silver dollars and gold were being moved out and loaded onto trucks. The angry bank managers cursed angrily. .
"What are you doing!"
Zhang Hu led the guard battalion troops to quickly surround the troops of about a hundred people in front of him and shouted, "The battle on the front line is in full swing, but you are here robbing a bank. Do you still look like a soldier? Which section are you from?"
A regiment leader came out and said, "I am Wang Mazi, the commander of the 117th Infantry Regiment under the command of the Sanma Governor. This new army of the imperial court has made a fool of us. I will steal some of their money and give it to my brothers. Is there anything wrong?"
"Went out!"
Su Yu waved his hand, and the soldiers in the guard camp quickly pulled the trigger. Hundreds of submachine guns destroyed the group of soldiers in front of them in an instant.
Zhang Hu came to the person in charge of the bank and asked, "Who runs this bank?"
"Prince Gong."
The bank manager seemed to have seen the savior and said quickly, "This is Prince Gong's bank. There are 2.9 million silver dollars and 1,200 kilograms of gold in it. Can you escort us out of the capital?"
"Prince Gong!"
"1,200 kilograms of gold!"
Now that the battlefield is open, the price of gold has skyrocketed. One tael of gold can be exchanged for more than 100 silver dollars. These 1,200 kilograms are worth more than 30 million silver dollars.
"Oh my god, I'm rich."
Su Yu was secretly happy, it was really going to rain. The mother was getting married, and the Bodhisattva knelt down to give him money.
