Chapter 395: Rainy Night
The scenery is picturesque, the people who look at the paintings are drunk, the mountains are cascading, and the mood of the people watching the mountains fluctuates. The two of them stood on the small peak, no one knew what they were thinking, except for themselves, of course Sun Boyong didn't know that just now because of his words, Liao Fan compared himself with the sage.
The summer days are extraordinarily long, but no matter how long the days are, there is an end, taking advantage of the last trace of clarity between heaven and earth, Liao Fan decided to take Sun Boyong down the mountain, after all, after dark, walking on the mountain without a road is a very slow thing, although Liao Fan is not afraid of trouble, but also take into account Sun Boyong's feelings.
As the saying goes, it's easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, and when the two people go down the mountain, it's really dark, and the time for curfew has not yet arrived in the station, and the soldiers are repairing in the evening, as for the content of the evening repair, it is nothing more than learning cultural classes, the squad leader takes the soldiers to summarize the content of today's training, and the junior officers ask their company commander to report the unexpected situation that happened today.
Four regiments in other directions also began to act.
"Everyone be careful, take everything you can take away, and hide everything you can't take in the cave we dug out in advance!" A company commander of a regiment urged his soldiers to be quick, they were a big move tonight, and their regimental commander told them that they would definitely come back, so nothing could be wasted.
Not only one regiment, but the other three regiments were also nervously preparing, for the independent 33rd Division without any air defense, except for simple camouflage, then night was their best protection.
"Commander, we have everything you want, can we arrange it now?" A company commander carried a straw and ran to the headquarters to find a regiment, Ma Wanzhong said.
Ma Wanzhong looked at the scarecrow and nodded with satisfaction: "Put these scarecrows in a conspicuous place." ”
When he returned to the station, Ma Wanzhong thought that if their troops withdrew, the little devils would definitely be able to discover them as soon as the morning dawned, after all, the little devils sent a large number of spies and scouts to Taihang Mountain. So Ma Wanzhong thought of using a scarecrow to stand guard, and if he could delay it for a while, he would delay it for a while.
Not only did a regiment do this, the commander of the third regiment, Hu Guoshan, actually ordered the soldiers to work in a group of three, and each group should be a straw man, nearly two thousand (don't be obsessed with whether the grass in Taihang Mountain is enough to tie so many straw people) straw men instantly appeared in the station of the entire three regiments, when it was dark, the commander of the three regiments gave an order, and nearly two thousand straw men appeared in the garrison of the three regiments to stand guard in place of the soldiers.
Everything was executed in a tense and orderly manner, and the night did not care at all that the soldiers of the 33rd Independent Division were doing things that he could not understand with his residual power. The moon grew brighter in the night, and the warriors could clearly see the rocks in the distance and the grass swaying back and forth in the breeze.
At the headquarters in Wuhan, Gangcun Ningci had just finished an emergency meeting, because the troops that had braved the rain to attack the Fifth Theater had suffered another setback, and at the meeting, Gangcun Ningci did not get angry, he only punished a few officers very gently, and then summed up the experience and lessons of the past few days, and then made a new combat deployment, and finally disbanded the meeting like this.
Gangcun Ningci, who walked out of the conference room and returned to the headquarters, knew that tonight was a sleepless night, although the wind in Shanxi was beautiful and the moon was beautiful, and the moon was in the sky, but Hubei was indeed stormy, which made him feel Nanning.
"Hey, this ruined temple is leaking wind and rain everywhere, how can I sleep tonight!" In a ruined temple outside Wuhan, a beggar was also complaining, it was raining for days, he ate all the food he had recently begged for, and he made up his mind that no matter how heavy the rain would be tomorrow, he would go out to find a meal to eat and fill his stomach.
"It's the best time to sleep on a rainy day, but at this time in previous years, Wuhan was so hot that I couldn't sleep at all!" The landlord of a village near Wuhan got into the quilt and groped for the third aunt's plump body in the quilt, making the third aunt too coquettish for a while.
There is a hint of silence in the most chaotic place, and there are rich people in the poorest place, and everyone is in a different situation, and they behave differently on a rainy night.
The Laohekou Command was the highest command of the Fifth Theater, that is, the command of General Li Zongren, but at this time, there was no officer in the command except for a few signal soldiers. At this time, Li Zongren was inspecting the position with a group of staff officers under him. There was no umbrella to hold in the wind and rain, so these officers were wearing raincoats and walking forward one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Many high-ranking generals in the national army said that Li Zongren was a blessed general, but only those who were familiar with him knew that his blessing came from his strict management of the army and his advanced thinking.
"The defense of this place needs to be strengthened, if the little devil attacks tomorrow morning, it will definitely be used as a breakthrough from here, and this place must be defended." Liao Fan said to a staff officer beside him.
In the wind and rain, the staff officer had no way to take notes at all, so he could only nod and write down the matter. After all, he has been fighting with the little devils for a while, and Li Zongren must let these staff officers under his command understand that the Japanese army is not here to drink tea with them, but to ask for their lives, only in this way can these fat-brained guys rack their brains to give him advice.
Of course, Li Zongren's most trusted staff officers really followed him to fight devils, and only the few people arranged by Chairman Jiang didn't know whether they were here to fight for power or to spy on him, and Li Zongren was very depressed, but the real command of the Fifth Theater was still in his hands, so even if there was a big grievance, Li Zongren did not dare to complain in his own headquarters, after all, the wall has ears, and once he was stabbed to Chairman Jiang, it didn't matter if he, the commander-in-chief of the Fifth Theater, should not be there. The war has just begun, and changing generals is a taboo for soldiers.
In order to be responsible for the soldiers under his command, and in order not to do things that are happy for relatives and enemies, Li Zongren endured some things without violating his principles, but today a staff officer actually questioned whether he was in collusion with Gangcun Ningci, and it was obvious that this staff officer was arranged by Chairman Jiang, so he took his staff officers out to inspect the front line in the rain to prove that Li Zongren was fiercely loyal to the party and the state and the nation.
The heavy rain gave the Fifth Theater a good opportunity, and in addition to the staff officer questioning this unpleasant little matter, Li Zongren still had a trace of happiness in his heart. Now in Chongqing, everyone is talking about Gangmura Ningji being a difficult opponent, but God is on the side of the Fifth War Zone, and he Okamura Ningji can only stare dryly.
Since the first bullet came out of the chamber, Okamura Ningji has not slept much, Li Zongren feels that he is a difficult opponent, Gangmura Ningji also knows that Li Zongren is also a difficult opponent, it can be seen from the battle of Taierzhuang, Li Zongren with a miscellaneous army, in the case of a serious lack of weapons, ammunition and logistics supplies, can eat the Segu detachment, which is enough to prove that he is a very good military general. He was thrilled to fight such a good soldier, and it was an honor.
However, what made Gangcun Ningci feel annoyed was this rain, it was just rain in Shanxi, he could order the troops to wait, and he couldn't wait for the rain, but the battle of Suizao had already kicked off, and it couldn't be done hastily in just a few minutes, once this war started, it would either be won or cooked, and it would be a matter of a while to quit halfway? How to explain to the group of people above who are not used to him.
Gangmura Ningji has come to this point, he is no longer a pure soldier, he needs to think about his political future, he knows that a pure soldier cannot protect himself in the political storm, so he needs victory to ensure that he is advancing and all the fighters will support him.
This is the first time that there is no light in the headquarters of the 33rd Independent Division, and it is in darkness, and there is only Liao Fan in the headquarters, but he has already slept, and when he was on the mountain, he talked to Sun Boyong, and he felt that he was in a much better mood after looking at the scenery, so after returning to the headquarters, he told everyone that he didn't have to stay in the headquarters today, and that he would go back and have a good rest, and that he would be able to work better after resting, and that his body was the capital of the revolution.
After a few people left. Liao Fan closed the door of the headquarters and fell asleep on the bed of the headquarters! It is rare for Liao Fan to rest so early, and going to bed so early is the happiest moment.
Since nightfall, all the units have been nervously preparing, and the soldiers of the 1st and 4th regiments arrived at the garrison in the second half of the night.
When nearly 10,000 people poured into the headquarters of the division, the originally quiet night became noisy, not because the first and fourth regiments were undisciplined, but on the contrary, the soldiers of the 33rd Independent Division were very disciplined. The reason for the noise mainly came from the commanders above the company commander of each unit, because after they arrived at the station, they had to be stationed in their own defensive area, so they kept shouting and giving orders.
When the regiment entered the garrison, a soldier had already reported the situation to Liao Fan. Liao Fan just rolled over in bed and continued to sleep, ignoring the soldier's report. It wasn't until the noisy sound of the station made Liao Fan wake up from his sleep and couldn't sleep anymore that Liao Fan got up and walked out of the headquarters.
Under the moonlight, the soldiers were busy, and Ma Wanzhong and Liu Chundao were urgently discussing something. Liu Chundao seemed to be a little dissatisfied with the combat mission assigned by Ma Wanzhong, and was striving for more combat opportunities for the Fourth Regiment, but Ma Wanzhong did not agree.
Led by a soldier, Liao Fan found Ma Wanzhong. When Ma Wanzhong and Liu Chundao saw Liao Fan coming over, they hurriedly gave up the quarrel just now and saluted Liao Fan.
"What are you two arguing about? The whole station belongs to the two of you with the loudest voices! Liao Fan was sleepy-eyed, and the moonlight shone on his face, which was very white.
"Brother Fan, Lao Ma bullied people, he just let our four regiments be reserves, I asked him when our four regiments would be on the line, and he said that when they were gone, it would be our turn!" Liu Chundao took the opportunity to complain to Liao Fan.
