Chapter 648: Commander of the Capture Brigade

Shanxi-Hebei-Henan Military Region Headquarters.

At this time, the Shanxi-Hebei-Henan Military Region Headquarters had not yet received Sun Weiguo's telegram, but the expressions of the personnel in the Military Region Headquarters were not very good.

As the dynamics of the Japanese army continued to be sent to the military district headquarters, the expression on Chief of Staff Ni's face began to change, his brows furrowed tightly, and he held a teacup in his right hand, but his eyes were always looking at the map.

The divisional troops of the First Army have now suffered more than 500 casualties, and they are temporarily unable to intercept the build-up of the 21st Division, and the Japanese 21st Division has already assembled two wings, and the 82nd and 83rd Wings have already set off from Yuci County and Shouyang County respectively, and they are about to rush to Pingding County and Xiyang County to participate in the battle.

The troops of the Second Army Division also suffered more than 300 casualties, although they were still holding back the 62nd Wing of the 21st Division of the Japanese Army, but they were under great pressure, and the troops of the 21st Wing of the Japanese Army would enter Pingding County at any time, and as for the Third Army Division, they had no way to intercept the First Brigade of the Mixed Battle, and the First Brigade of the Mixed War had already entered Pingding County.

What made Chief of Staff Ni even more helpless was that Sun Weiguo actually took a Jibu battalion to attack Xiyang County, and after getting this report, Chief of Staff Ni had already begun to scold his mother in his heart.

"Commander, now is not the time to hesitate, immediately remove Sun Weiguo from the post of commander of the new Second Brigade, I will go to the front line to command the operation, Sun Weiguo took a battalion to attack the Japanese county town, this is simply playing the piano, it doesn't matter if he dies, but all the good troops have been fought by him, and this command is completely wrong. I still suggested before, to remove Sun Weiguo from the post of brigade commander, I will temporarily act as the commander of the new second brigade, I will go to the front line to command the operation, and now I will go to the front line to command the operation, at least to ensure that the new second brigade will not be completely annihilated. ”

Deputy Commander Wang stood up, his eyes looked at Chief of Staff Ni, and he said in a serious tone.

After Chief of Staff Ni heard Deputy Commander Wang's words, his brows furrowed tightly, and he looked towards Political Commissar Huang Zhen.

"The Japanese army uses the people as shields, and we can't ignore the people, but Brigade Commander Sun directly leads a battalion to attack without heavy weapons, which is wrong, I admit that Brigade Commander Sun Weiguo is very brave, but this is completely personal heroism, this time I support Deputy Commander Wang." Political Commissar Huang Zhen said with a sigh.

In the opinion of Political Commissar Huang Zhen, Sun Weiguo and the troops of the Jibu Battalion will definitely be wiped out, and now only by letting Deputy Commander Wang go to the command of the New Second Brigade can the troops of the New Second Brigade be saved.

Chief of Staff Ni heard that the political commissar of Huang Zhen had said such words, he closed his eyes and nodded helplessly.

"Commander, political commissar, I will immediately go to the front line to command the troops to fight." Seeing that Chief of Staff Ni and Political Commissar Huang Zhen had agreed, Deputy Commander Wang had a smile on his face.

"Send a telegram to the headquarters, report our situation here, temporarily remove Sun Weiguo from the post of brigade commander, and replace it with Deputy Commander Wang." Chief of Staff Ni gave the order.

The signal soldier immediately nodded, and the signal soldier quickly began to send electricity to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

But at this time, a staff officer came to Chief of Staff Ni: "Commander, a message from the new Second Brigade. ”

"Hmph, it must be Sun Weiguo's failure in the battle, commander, political commissar, I will go to the front line to command immediately." Deputy Commander Wang hurriedly said.

"Deputy commander, it's not that the operation failed, it's the good news sent by Brigade Commander Sun Weiguo, who led the Jibu Battalion to completely annihilate an infantry brigade of the Japanese army in Xiyang County, and captured Qin Yashang, the commander of the Fifth Brigade of the Japanese Army." The staff officer immediately replied with a look of adoration on his face.

Chief of Staff Ni was standing in front of the map, he was holding a teacup in his hand, and when he heard this staff officer's words, the teacup in Chief of Staff Ni's hand fell to the ground.

"What do you say? You're saying it again, louder, forget it, you give me the message. Chief of Staff Ni said incoherently.

He walked quickly to the staff officer, he directly snatched the message, and carefully glanced at the content of the message, Chief of Staff Ni had an excited smile on his face.

"Political commissar, deputy commander, the new second brigade has won the battle, Sun Weiguo captured the lieutenant general brigade commander of the little devil, this has never been done in our army's battle, not to mention the lieutenant general brigade commander, even the major general has never been captured alive, even if Sun Weiguo pierces the sky this time, as long as there is this lieutenant general brigade commander prisoner of war, he can be forgiven for any mistakes."

Chief of Staff Ni said excitedly, and he slapped the message directly on the table.

The political commissar of Huang Zhen, who was pouring water, was stunned, and the hot water spilled all over the table, and he reacted.

"Okay, this Sun Weiguo is not simple, I underestimate him." Political Commissar Huang Zhen said with an embarrassed face.

Deputy Commander Wang's face was pale, ruddy, and pale, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to drill into.

He thought that Sun Weiguo would lose the battle, but now Sun Weiguo not only won the battle, but also captured the commander of the lieutenant general brigade of the little devil.

"Don't send the previous message to headquarters." Chief of Staff Ni came to his senses, and he hurriedly said.

Previously, they also sent a telegram to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, suggesting that Sun Weiguo be removed from his post as brigade commander, but now if this telegram is sent to the headquarters, they will be tantamount to slapping themselves in the face.

"Commander, it's already been sent." The communications soldier said aggrievedly.

After a while, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army called back to the Shanxi-Hebei-Henan Military Region, and the content of the message was only three words: play the piano indiscriminately.

Obviously, the head of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army also received a report on the victory of the new Second Brigade.

The capture of a lieutenant general brigade commander of the little devil is something that no Chinese unit has done in previous operations, and this incident alone makes the head of the headquarters very happy.

At this time, the head of the headquarters saw that the Shanxi-Hebei-Henan Military Region wanted to remove Sun Weiguo from his post as brigade commander, and the mood of the head of the headquarters can be imagined.

Seeing the three words of the head of the headquarters calling back, Chief of Staff Ni and the others looked very embarrassed.

Headquarters of the Second Theater Commander.

Yan Xishan was talking with several representatives of the overseas Chinese condolence group, all of whom had smiles on their faces.

The overseas Chinese condolence group originally wanted to go to the troops of the New Second Brigade to offer condolences, but because the New Second Brigade was fighting, the condolence group could only temporarily stay at the commander's headquarters.

However, they had already made a request, they wanted to go to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army to offer condolences, Yan Xishan could not refuse, he could only agree.

"General seat, good news, good news for the new second brigade." Yan Xishan was negotiating with overseas Chinese, and Tang Chunhua ran in from outside with excitement on his face.

"Presumptuous, panicked, what kind of system." Seeing Tang Chunhua's performance, Yan Xishan reprimanded him dissatisfiedly.

"General seat, the new second brigade regained the county seat of Xiyang County, completely annihilated an infantry brigade of the Japanese army in the county seat of Xiyang County, killed one chief of staff of the independent mixed fifth brigade, five junior officers, more than 30 captain-level officers, and captured Qin Yashang, the commander of the lieutenant general brigade of the independent mixed fifth brigade!" Tang Chunhua immediately reported.
