With the few troops stationed in Yuwangdong to attack Yangqu, it would be to risk death. Even if Chu Yunfei brought the whole regiment to attack Yangqu, he was not sure of victory.
After all, Yangqu is too close to Taiyuan. As long as the battle starts, the ground troops of the Taiyuan Japs will arrive in less than two hours. As for the air support, it will arrive in a blink of an eye. One of his regiments is not enough to feed the Japs ammunition.
Xie Tian calmly defeated Chu Yunfei's army. Seeing Chu Yunfei's embarrassment, Xie Tian picked up the wine bowl and touched it with Chu Yunfei and said: "Brother Yunfei, you see that my army has been mobilized. This There are a lot of expenses along the way, and if we just withdraw like this, I will always feel a little unwilling."
Chu Yunfei squinted his eyes and looked at Xie Tian and asked, "What do you want? Let me give up the defense zone to you?"
Xie Tian laughed and waved his hand: "Brother, I definitely don't mean this. Brother Yunfei, do you think this is good? You and I will join forces in this battle. Let's fight Yangqu together. My troops are in front and your troops are behind. , wait until my troops have defeated all your troops before we go up. If you and I can knock down Yangqu, the Japanese in Taiyuan will be as restless as ants on a hot pot. If other troops in the World War II zone can also cooperate with us at this time Wouldn't it be better if we fought to regain Taiyuan in one fell swoop and drive the little Japs out of northwest Shanxi?"
Chu Yunfei looked at Xie Tian in surprise: "You want to attack Taiyuan?"
Xie Tian smiled and asked, "Can't we fight in Taiyuan?"
I have fought twice alone, let alone our own Taiyuan. If conditions are created for me, I dare to fight as far as Tokyo.
The corner of Chu Yunfei's mouth twitched twice, he looked at Xie Tian and said: "If Brother Baoqing really wants to play Yangqu, then brother can't stand in your way. Brother, I really want to play Yangqu with Brother Baoqing vigorously. , to attack Taiyuan, but the headquarters of the Second Theater Command did not give me such an order, so I couldn’t help myself."
Xie Tian shook his head slightly in regret, picked up the wine bottle, added a little to Chu Yunfei's wine bowl, and then filled it up for himself.
Chu Yunfei had not touched a drop of wine since he sat there, but Xie Tian had already drank a bowl. Such an unreasonable behavior seemed a bit arrogant, but if you think about it from another angle, it feels like Xie Tian didn't take it at all. Chu Yunfei was treated like an outsider.
At this time, Hu Zhiyong ran back and reported: "Reporting to the division commander, the equipment you ordered is ready. Should we load it into a truck and send it to Commander Chu, or will Commander Chu himself send a truck to pull it?"
Xie Tian's eyes widened: "Nonsense, of course we sent it to Brother Yunfei, so it's not difficult to borrow it and borrow it again."
Chu Yunfei rolled his eyes fiercely. It's easy to borrow. Isn't it difficult to borrow it again?
Was I willing to lend you these equipment in the first place?
It was you who snatched it, okay?
It's not difficult to borrow it again. What do you mean by this, do you plan to rob me again?
In fact, Chu Yunfei's battalion was besieged by Xie Tian's regiment in King Yu Cave. Chu Yunfei understood that Xie Tian's attempt to snatch the equipment of his battalion was just a matter of snapping his fingers.
Chu Yunfei was puzzled, where did Xie Baoqing recruit so many soldiers, and they were all screaming soldiers.
When the war was intense, Chu Yunfei's troops had to capture young men wherever they went. Now at least 30 to 40% of the soldiers in his 358 regiment were captured by young men. It's no wonder that their morale is low and they have stretched their hips during the war.
The soldiers who were captured were uncomfortable and wanted to run away whenever they had the chance. What kind of battle could such soldiers fight on the battlefield?
If there was no supervising team watching from behind, I'm afraid all the soldiers would have run away as soon as the enemy's gunfire rang out.
Chu Yunfei didn't want to capture young men, but he was helpless. The supply of soldiers was tight. If he didn't capture young men, not many people were willing to carry guns. All units of the national army were capturing young men, so he could only go with the flow.
Seeing Chu Yunfei's face, Xie Tian chuckled and said, "Brother Yunfei, the equipment has been prepared for you. Do you want to take a look?"
Chu Yunfei originally had some doubts that Xie Tian would not return the equipment to him so happily. Now that Xie Tian has given him a step, he nodded politely and said: "That's fine."
Xie Tianyixiao stood up and said to Hu Zhiyong: "Take us to have a look."
The training ground is actually a large barracks, with tents set up all around.
Hu Zhiyong led Xie Tian and Chu Yunfei through a barracks and pointed to the piled equipment in a field in the camp area and said: "It's all there, a thousand 38-guns, three Jin-made 89-style guns, and thirty light ones." Machine guns, three 60 guns, and eighteen grenade launchers. No one remembers the detailed list of equipment captured by the two battalions of the 358th Regiment. The chief of staff ordered them to be prepared according to the standard configuration of our army. These do not include the number of weapons you ordered. The ones given..."
Hu Zhiyong kept talking, but Chu Yunfei's scalp was numb. With so much equipment, it was much more equipment than the two battalions that Xie Baoqing had 'borrowed' from him.
Does the standard configuration of Xie Baoqing's troops have such fierce firepower?
Wu Wenhua, who was counting the equipment on the field, saw Xie Tian walking over with Chu Yunfei. He was stunned for a moment, then ran over and saluted the two of them at attention: "Commander, Commander Chu, the equipment is ready. Excuse me." Any other instructions?"
Xie Tian nodded, looked at Chu Yunfei and smiled: "Brother Yunfei, you two probably don't need my introduction. Wenhua is your old subordinate, and now he is my chief of staff and my right-hand man."
Chu Yunfei stared at Wu Wenhua with a mocking smile and said: "Of course no introduction is needed. Brother 358 Tuanmiao Xiaorong is not as talented as Brother Wenhua. Congratulations to Brother Wenhua for being promoted to Chief of Staff. The Chief of Staff of a division is even better than Chu." If you want to be a senior official, you will have to salute Brother Wenhua when you meet Chu again."
How could Wu Wenhua not hear the sarcasm in Chu Yunfei's words? He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Chu Yunfei and said: "Commander Chu, you are so polite. Our division commander was personally awarded the rank of major general by Chairman Chiang Kai-shek of the National Government. Although my brother has not been awarded the title of Colonel by the Ministry of National Defense, at least he should be awarded the same rank of colonel as Commander Chu. However, we are all fighting against the Japanese and the Japanese. Regardless of seniority or official rank, we should just treat each other as brothers in the future. As for Whoever salutes whom, it’s all trivial, I will salute whoever can fight the devils, whoever knows how to fight the devils.”
The corner of Chu Yunfei's mouth twitched fiercely a few times, he looked at Xie Tian and asked: "Chairman Chiang awarded you the rank of major general?"
Xie Tian laughed and said: "Bad promises, just a broken military rank, not a single gun, not a single person, and no military pay. I can't compare to regular troops like you. It makes Brother Yunfei laugh. Come on, let's take inventory of the equipment." , keep an eye on it and I’ll have someone send it to you.”
Chu Yunfei suddenly felt very hurt.
Not even a gun. You have more guns than I do.
No one is given to you, you have several times more people than I do.
We don’t know about military pay, but what does your rank of major general mean?
Was my education at Whampoa Military Academy in vain?
Should I also find a mountain to be the king of the mountain for a few years?
