Chapter 87: Years of Bad Habits
In Jinshan County, Yao's compound.
The last attack of the devils before noon was finally repulsed, and the 367th regiment ushered in a rare rest.
Zhong Yi came to the artillery position, patted the mountain artillery on the shoulder and said, "Mountain artillery, you rest first, I'll keep an eye on it for you!" ”
"No, you don't." The mountain artillery wiped the smoke from his face and said, "Commander-in-chief, I'm not tired, I'm really not tired." ”
"How can you not be tired?" Wang Zilong, who accompanied him, said, "This morning, you destroyed at least four armored vehicles of the devil plus two combat vehicle defense guns that tried to reach close to direct fire, and the heavy machine guns destroyed are even more innumerable. ”
Wang Zilong did not say nonsense that the reason why the 367th Regiment has been able to hold on to the present is that the battle defense gun of the mountain artillery has made great contributions.
Of course, it is not only the mountain artillery that has made great contributions, but also two more in the traffic building and the county office.
It is precisely because of these three anti-aircraft guns that they protect each other's flanks that the devil is like a lion biting a hedgehog and has no way to bite it, which makes the iron triangle of the traffic building, the county office, and the Yao family compound as solid as a rock.
After a pause, Wang Zilong said again: "Hurry up and rest, there will be a fierce battle in the afternoon!" ”
The mountain cannon was no longer hypocritical, and he smiled and lay down, snoring like thunder for a moment.
Wang Zilong took off his tweed military uniform and put it on the body of the mountain artillery, and said to Zhong Yi: "Commander-in-chief, we have defended Jinshan County, but you say, can Songjiang Mansion City be defended?" ”
Zhong Yi sighed lightly, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I can't hold it." ”
Wang Zilong said: "The 67th Army has an army of more than 10,000 people, and it can't hold even a day?" ”
Zhong Yi said: "If Wu Keren really has the determination to break the cauldron and sink the boat, and he really has the determination to burn the devil and jade, such as Yao Ziqingying in Baoshan County, it is more than enough to hold Songjiang for seven days, but ......"
Wang Zilong said: "But what? ”
Zhong Yi sighed: "I'm afraid that Wu Keren doesn't have this determination." ”
Wang Zilong said: "The commander-in-chief's words seem to mean something else? ”
Zhong Yi asked, "Then let me ask you, before I arrived in Jinshan County, why was Zhang Tuanzuo unwilling to let his troops stay in the city?" Instead of insisting on putting the troops outside the city? ”
When Wang Zilong heard this, he immediately fell silent.
Why did Zhang Kongyi put his troops outside the city? Of course, it is for the sake of being able to evacuate the battlefield in time when the situation is unfavorable!
And if you put the troops in the city, it is easy to be surrounded by the Japanese army on all sides, and you can't go if you want to!
Zhong Yi sighed: "More than 20 years of warlord melee has made our China miserable, not only directly causing the displacement of hundreds of people, but also bringing a very bad habit into our army!" ”
The prince said abruptly: "What the commander-in-chief said is, preserve your strength, right?" ”
"That's right, it's to preserve strength!" Zhong Yi said, "During the warlord melee, from the patrol envoy of the commander's side, down to the company commander and even the platoon commander, all they thought about was to preserve their own strength, which can't be said to be wrong, after all, whoever has more strength has a greater right to speak, which is nothing!" ”
"But now, little Japan has entered our China, and the Chinese nation is facing a great danger of extinction, and it would be a big mistake to think about preserving strength at this time. But it's hard to change the bad habit of preserving strength for a while! ”
The prince was silent, because he really couldn't refute, so he could only be silent.
Zhong Yi said again: "Why was the 29th Army defeated by devils so quickly in Beiping? Why can't the more than 30 divisions of the Jin Sui Army defeat half of the devil's division on the Xinkou battlefield? It's because it's hard to change the bad habit of preserving strength, and it's because I can't make up my mind to burn the little devil jade! ”
Actually, Zhong Yi hasn't finished speaking.
There are also the Central Army on Zhongtiao Mountain and the Central Army of more than a dozen divisions outside Nanjing, why did they lose so badly? It is not because the officers and men at the grassroots level of the Central Army are afraid of the enemy and cowardly in battle, let alone because the devil is really invincible, but the most important thing is that the commanders at all levels have a deep-rooted concept of preserving strength in their minds!
As everyone knows, on the battlefield of resistance against Japan, the more you try to preserve your strength, the faster you will lose, the more you will lose miserably, and you will be defeated!
On the contrary, the Sichuan army, which was determined to fight for the country and the nation, performed very well in both the North China Battlefield and the Songhu Battlefield, although the equipment was poor and the logistical support was equal to zero! Because from the moment they stepped out of Sichuan Province, the soldiers of the Sichuan Army were already determined to sacrifice their lives for the country, and they didn't want to be useless!
Sighing lightly, Zhong Yi said again: "In a word, if Wu Keren has the determination to burn all the jade, if the brothers of the 67th Army dare to shrink Songjiang City, then within seven days, the devil will not want to cross Songjiang and die half-dead, otherwise ......" paused, and said, "Before it gets dark today, Songjiang will definitely be lost!" ”
The prince was silent for a long time.
……
Matsue, 67th Army Military Headquarters.
Wu Keren asked with a pale face: "Is that really what Chairman Jiang said?" ”
"Yes!" The adjutant said with an embarrassed face, "It is said that this is the original words of Chairman Jiang. ”
As soon as they heard this, several commanders of the headquarters, as well as the guards, immediately exploded.
"His grandmother, who has only lost the battle once, said that our 67th Army is a wreck?"
"Is this unreasonable? Qualitative in one sentence? The blood of more than 5,000 brothers in the 107th division was shed in vain? ”
"The five divisions of their Central Army besieged thousands of devils in Shanghai, and they couldn't take it for half a month, what can you say?"
In the midst of the shouting, a guard with a Bergman machine gun strode up to Wu Keren, gritted his teeth and said, "I can't stand the military seat, let's fight with the little devils, right?" ”
As soon as these words came out, he was immediately furious.
"That's right, fight with the devil, fight to the death!"
"It's a small one, even if you die, you have to let Lao Jiang see that there is no one in our Northeast Army!"
"That's right, Junzuo, let's fight with the little devils, the whole army will enter Songjiang City, and fight the devils to the end!"
"Yes, from the northeast to the northwest, and then from the northwest to North China, and from North China to Shanghai, anyway, I'm tired, and I don't want to run anymore, these hundred or ten catties will be put aside in Songjiang and fight with the little devil!"
However, Wu Keren said without thinking: "Shut up for me!" ”
After speaking, Wu Keren shouted at Zhang Wenqing, the commander of the 107th Division: "Zhang Wenqing, hurry back to the position and keep an eye, if you can't build a pontoon bridge before dark, I only ask!" ”
"Yes!" Zhang Wenqing turned around and walked away.
Wu Keren shouted to the tall guard who took the lead in speaking: "And you, Guo Weiquan, stand at your post well, what is a platoon commander talking nonsense?" Salty eating radish is not worrying, really. ”
