Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 524

Chapter 524 The thoughts of our seniors!

Compared to the solemnity of the lieutenant generals, major generals, and colonels at the headquarters of the 18th Division, the atmosphere in the Chinese Jiashan Defense Line Headquarters was obviously much more relaxed.

Unlike Ushijima Sadao who suffered many setbacks, the two lieutenant generals Wolong and Fenghin were in a very good mood these two days, although they were dug up a lot by Tang Dao's **** and shovel.

Under the fierce attack of a reorganized division of the 18th Division and a heavy artillery brigade, these two men led two infantry corps in name. In fact, they only had three infantry divisions with less than 30,000 troops. Not only did it hold back for a week, creating one of the few achievements in the history of China's war with Japan, but it also relied on the vanguard left before - the advance group, and directly smashed the opponent's largest weapon, the heavy artillery brigade, with a backhand blow. .

Such a record, not only will it go down in history, but it will definitely be written into the military academies' battle examples in the future.

In fact, in the battle between the Chinese defenders of Songjiang and the Japanese Tenth Army, the classic example of 30,000 Chinese people escaping while being chased and intercepted by the Japanese Tenth Army and naval fleet fighter formations will be remembered in the future. Not only was it recorded in the textbooks of the Chinese military academy, but even the face-conscious Japanese included it in the world's classic army combat cases decades later.

The reason why the most famous night attack battle on the Jiashan defense line is not the core is because that night was just a part of this classic 'retreat' battle. Although it was brilliant enough, it was not enough compared to the entire battlefield. A true pinnacle moment.

It's just that the two lieutenant generals Wolong and Fengchu can't predict the future. The reason why they are in a good mood at the moment is that in addition to their previous results being extremely good, the troops have also received enough supplies to last for 15 days.

What pleased them most was that the field hospital transported up to 2,600 wounded soldiers in the past two days and successfully arrived at the Jiaxing defense line. This solved most of their worries. As long as the Japanese army remained silent for one more day, they could evacuate all soldiers. Medical staff and the wounded, by that time, the whole Jiashan Defense Line army can leave if they want, and there will no longer be the worry of being chased by the 18th Division.

The 18th Division now has no heavy artillery brigade. Who can be retained by just relying on dozens of small-caliber guns?

In contrast, what Tang Dao took away was just some potatoes, and what he gave was a golden doll.

"This boy Tang Dao is really a lucky general! Ever since I met him in Songjiang, I have finally been able to catch my breath. I didn't want to expose the entire family as I thought." Lieutenant General Guo reached out and took it from the plate in front of the two of them. Put a fragrant fried soybean into your mouth and enjoy it beautifully.

Apart from anything else, without the thing that Tang Dao snatched from the Japanese, he, a dignified army lieutenant general, could only eat baked potatoes if he wanted to satisfy his craving.

It's okay to have a black mouth. The key is that when I think about the taste of potatoes, Comrade Lao Guo, who has been eating these for almost a week, feels nauseous.

When you eat beans, you naturally don't forget the person who gave them to you, right?

"That guy turned out to be a soldier under your command, Brother Guo! Why did he look like a different person when he joined the 88th Division? Brother Guo, do you have to reflect on yourself?" Lieutenant General Wu was obviously in a good mood at this moment. It was rare for him to make a joke about his colleague who was a few years older than him.

"Haha, Commander, if you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten it. I really want to thank General Sun for this. If it wasn't for him running too fast, the little guy Tang Dao wouldn't have been taken away by him. Fortunately, he went around and gave me old Didn't Guo send it back?" Lieutenant General Guo didn't feel dissatisfied when he heard his colleagues' teasing. On the contrary, he was happy.

"Brother Guo, you are a typical example of someone who behaves well after getting an advantage! Maybe Mr. Sun is scolding me behind his back! Not only did you pry away the Tang Dao, but you also took away nearly a hundred elite soldiers! Then Lei Xiong and Leng Feng, which one is a good candidate for the battalion commander in the ordinary army? It turns out that they are just the deputy battalion commander and infantry company commander." Lieutenant General Wu pointed his finger at Comrade Guo, who was a little carried away. There is a sour smell in it.

That shouldn't be sour! The 67th Army and the 43rd Army are now fighting as one, but when they withdraw to Jinling, one is the Sichuan Army and the other is the Northeastern Army. As a result, they will inevitably part ways. No matter how strong Tang Dao and the Independent Battalion were, they would eventually fall under the command of the 43rd Army. As the commander of the 67th Army, he could only watch helplessly.

"It's not me, it's us! Although Tang Dao and the Independent Battalion are nominally under the command of our 43rd Army, who in the world doesn't know that your 67th Army and our 43rd Army are like one body, with one being prosperous and the other suffering?" How smart is Lieutenant General Guo? The man instantly sensed the slight injustice of his colleague and immediately expressed relief.

The smile also faded in time, and his voice became a little faint: "Commander-in-Chief, have you ever thought about this question? Even if all our troops on the Jiashan frontline can withdraw to Jinling, will the Japanese stop their attack?"

Hearing what Lieutenant General Guo said, Lieutenant General Wu, who was throwing fried soybeans into his mouth, paused slightly and couldn't help but narrow his eyes. After a long time, he sighed softly: "If I were the commander of the Japanese dispatched force in Shanghai, I would never give up such a good opportunity. I would definitely use all my strength to conquer Jinling, so as to defeat the mentality of our country's top leaders to continue to resist."

“Commander-in-Chief, do you think those people will do something that will be remembered for thousands of years?” Lieutenant General Guo's eyes became more solemn.

If such a day comes, then hundreds of thousands of his Sichuan disciples will go out to fight the war in Sichuan, and tens of thousands of them will die on the Songhu battlefield alone. They will be completely thrown into the torrent of history by weakness, leaving no trace.

More importantly, is there still hope for him and his nation?

“That's not that easy.” A sneer appeared on the corner of Wu Zhongjiang's lips. "The national sentiment for the war of resistance has arisen in the country, and it cannot be extinguished by one person or a few people. Anyone who dares to make that decision will definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame in history. Moreover, even if the Japanese can really capture Jinling, So what? Japan can swallow up Northeast China and North China, but China is so big that we still have Central China, South China, Central Sichuan and further west. I don't think how can Japan swallow up such a small area? "

"It is true to say so, but the aliens from more than two hundred years ago were still inferior to the Japanese at this time. Aren't they still dominating our land of China for many years? People who are greedy for life and afraid of death and kneel down to survive. But it's like a crucian carp crossing a river!" Lieutenant General Guo sighed slightly.

"This time is different from the past! I don't know what other people think, but our Northeast Army lost the Northeast because of the order. For six years, I have been ashamed when I think about it. This battle is nothing more than the total death of the entire army. Otherwise, I, Mr. Wu, will not fight thousands of miles to the southeast, knowing that I will probably die but still heading towards Songjiang." Lieutenant General Wu showed a cold light in his eyes and made a decisive move.

This may be the first time Lieutenant General Guo heard his colleague express his feelings so openly. He was moved and took the initiative to extend his hands, "Since our 200,000 soldiers of the Sichuan Army have left Sichuan, we have no intention of surviving, no matter what the war is like. , the 43rd Army and I just accompanied the commander-in-chief and the 67th Army on this journey."

“Haha, Brother Guo, even if you don't say anything, I know your intentions. Otherwise, your 43rd Army wouldn't be able to poach so many elite men under my command!” Lieutenant General Wu laughed boldly.

The hands of the two lieutenant generals were clasped together in laughter, and their thoughts were clearer than ever before.

No matter how the war develops or how bad it will be, it is just a fight, even if the whole army is in trouble! They died, and others will continue to fight!

Their China has 40 million people!

Tang Dao, who was standing at the entrance of the headquarters, listened to the conversation between the two lieutenant generals in the headquarters and felt a stream of heat rushing from the soles of his feet to the sky. His eyes flashed and almost flowed out of his eyes.

Can't help myself!

That is the unique tacit understanding between soldiers, it is also the resonance between tribesmen with the same blood, and it is also the respect that Tang Dao, a soul from the future, has for the unyielding ancestors of this era.

Every Chinese who chose to stand and die rather than kneel and live in this war should have their names engraved on the monument standing in the square.
