Because the flanking troops on the northern front were defeated, the news suddenly shook all sides. The Eighth Division did not dare to attack the city for three consecutive days, and the defenders on the line from Xifengkou to Panjiakou finally got a rare respite and were able to further strengthen the defensive positions of each pass.

Afterwards, news finally came that because of the fiasco in the Battle of Rehe, the commander of the Kwantung Army, General Muto Nobuyoshi, was forced to resign, and General Takashi Hishikari took over the post of commander of the Kwantung Army.

Because of the fear that the Youyan anti-Japanese detachment would concentrate its forces southward and cut off the connection between the 8th Division and the 2nd Division, the Japanese front was fully contracted and waited for a favorable opportunity.

The Japanese Sixth Division, which was already preparing to attack Gubeikou from Duolun to the south, also immediately retreated and re-operated the line from Guisui to Duolun that had been occupied to ensure the stability of the rear.

"Gentlemen, the Kwantung Army fought in Rehe, and now it is difficult to ride a tiger, how to break the deadlock, please express your opinions." General Hishikari took office and took over a mess. Therefore, all the senior staff officers were brought over to hear how to deal with it at present, after all, he himself did not know the actual situation.

"Your Excellency, Commander, I have always reserved my opinion on attacking the passes of the Great Wall by force." Okamura Ninji, who had just been promoted to deputy chief of staff of the Kwantung Army, was the first to speak: "The government army of China does not have the determination to confront our Japanese enemy, and it has a deep intention to send He Yingqin to replace Zhang Xueliang. He Yingqin can be used to achieve the strategic goal of winning Rehe without a fight! ”

The more General Hishikari listened, the more interested he became: "Yo Xi! Okayura-kun, please keep talking! ”

"I think that the main mind of the national government army is how to exterminate the **, and they don't care about losing some land at all." Okamura Ninji smiled and said: "Your Excellency Commander, we should have private contact with He Yingqin, and then reach a tacit understanding, the entire Rehe is our Great Japanese Empire, and there is no need to let our warriors shed blood in vain." ”

General Hishikari Takashi felt a little unbelievable about Okamura Ninji's whimsical thoughts: "Nani? Now that the two sides are at war, who will be able to communicate secretly in the past? ”

Okamura Ninji was not in a hurry: "According to the news obtained by Tu Fei Yuanjun, Chiang Kai-shek once gave He Yingqin a secret warrant, which read: 'Those who speak extravagantly about the anti-Japanese will be killed!'" 'If authorized by His Excellency the Commander, the Commander may immediately fly to Guisui and then use the relevant channels to communicate with the other party. I am fully sure that I will be able to get Chengde. ”

General Ryokari tapped his right hand on the table, pondered for a moment, and then said, "In this way, Gangmura-kun, what else do you want?" ”

Okamura Ninji stood up, bowed and said, "Your Excellency Commander, I would like to ask Kenji Dohihara as his deputy. He and Yan Xishan in Shanxi are classmates, and their personal relationship is very good. I think that through Yan Xishan's mediation, the matter is already half successful. ”

"Yo Si! Okamura-kun, your idea is very bold, but it is also fully feasible! General Ryokari nodded appreciatively: "The Kwantung Army Command has granted you full authority to deal with the Rehe incident, as long as you can get Rehe, the negotiation with the other party is completely in your control." As for the government of China, you can do more rhetorical praise and give some verbal promises. The people of China are wide-eyed, and they like to feast their ears the most, so you just let it go! ”

The defenders inside the Great Wall and the Japanese troops outside the Great Wall are secretly coordinating something, and Bai Shujie doesn't want to care. For for him, no matter how things develop, there is only one enemy for him: the dwarf on the island!

He is now in full swing to make internal adjustments, because of the sudden sacrifice of Gadamerin. The independent brigade has no backbone. Taking advantage of the fact that both sides are now on guard against us, it can be regarded as "no war in the surrounding area". Therefore he put the man in the full. The three battalion commanders of the independent brigade and the sister of Gadamerin, Damanzhiva, received the headquarters of the Overlord Cave.

Bai Shujie knows that **** always exists, and ethnic estrangement also exists to a greater or lesser extent. This is not because there are any stereotypes, but because different ethnic groups have different cultural backgrounds and customs. Therefore, he brought these people to ask them to be honest with Manmeng. Opinion on the future direction of development of the Independence Brigade.

Dai Sendari, the commander of the 1st Independent Battalion, Dari Achi, the commander of the 2nd Independent Battalion, Batel, the commander of the 3rd Independent Battalion, and Da Manriwa, the head of the Telecommunications Section, these four people represent the entire Manchurian and Mongolian. Separate Brigade.

For the sake of prudence, Bai Shujie summoned all the brigade-level supervisors to participate in this important meeting. Gan Tong, Zhao Jinxi, Zhang Xiang, Hou Zide, Du Guangyuan, Lan Caiqin, Liu Quanyu, and Ma Deyao all rushed to the headquarters of Bawangdong from their respective defense areas.

Originally, the reunion after the war was a great event, but because of the unfortunate sacrifice of Gadamerin, this party caused a lingering shadow.

However, these people here are all friends who have been killed from the sea of corpses and blood, and there is nothing that cannot be said about each other.

Bai Shujie didn't go around the bend, but said straight to the point: "I invited everyone here today, mainly to study Manmeng. The question of the command structure of the separate brigade. The sacrifice of Gadamerin was a huge loss for our entire anti-Japanese detachment. In order to continue to do what Gadamerin has not done, we need to convene this meeting today to hear everyone's opinions. ”

Daisendari was the first to take the lead: "Detachment leader, I, Daisendari, represent the first battalion and absolutely obey the orders of the detachment. If I have two hearts, the gods will not forgive me! ”

"No way!" Bai Shujie shook his head and said, "When Gadamerin and I became brothers, I said at the time, Manmeng. The command body of the independent brigade is recommended by yourselves, and then the detachment gives an order for appointment and dismissal. Gadamerin is gone, and this one still counts. So, a few of you must give us an opinion. ”

All the way up to Zuihou, no one made a specific opinion. Bai Shujie had no choice but to propose a compromise plan: "In this way, I'll propose a plan for everyone to discuss." Daisen Dari is the captain, and Dari Achi and Batel are the deputy captains. The current deputy battalion commander is promoted to battalion commander, and the deputy battalion commander is appointed by your brigade and reported to the detachment for approval and filing. ”

It was a very happy appointment, and naturally everyone had no opinion, and the General Assembly unanimously approved it.

Bai Shujie smiled and said, "In this war, we have suffered great losses. In particular, the losses of the soldiers, all combined, amounted to more than 1,400 people, and almost half of the brigade was lost. The other brigades are okay to say, Daisendarri, you are full of Meng. What about the soldiers of the independent brigade, do you have any haode suggestions? ”

"Report to the detachment leader, Gadamerin discussed this issue with us when he was alive." Daisendari stood up and said, "I have two opinions: first, we have expanded our territory now, and the Linxi area should be able to get some soldiers. In particular, this battle has shown our prestige, and recently several anti-Japanese guerrilla columns have been approached. In addition, I think Damanzhiwa should be transferred to the detachment leader, so that she can contribute to the recruitment of troops in the Chengde area. Report complete! ”

"Captain Daisendarge's proposal is very good, for some anti-Japanese groups, we must be as united as possible. Even if we can't become our own team, we can find a way to become allies. If there is any big battle in the future, it may also be useful. Bai Shujie affirmed Daisen Dayi's opinion, and at the same time said to Damanriwa: "As for the work of Damanriwa's sister, I have to ask for her own opinion!" ”

Damanzhiwa stood up and said: "As long as the anti-Japanese detachment is favorable, I will obey the arrangement!" ”

"That's okay, Director Yang, Damanriwa will work in your telecommunications department from now on. If there is any relatively large recruitment work on Gan Tong's side, Damanzhiwa can communicate with those Mongolian brothers, which will be more convincing! I am fully convinced that there will be many iron-blooded men among the Mongolian brothers. ”

Bai Shujie made a final decision, and then came to the front of the map and said: "Now that the little devil is worried about our army going south, there is a chance, a chance to avenge Gadamerin!" Captain Daisendarge, can you get your brigade into battle in seven days? ”

Daisen Dari shouted: "Report to the detachment leader, Manmeng. All the warriors of the independent brigade have crushed their steel teeth. As long as it's a little devil, we can fight at any time! ”

Bai Shujie nodded, and then said to the room inside: "Okay, you are full of Meng. The Independent Brigade will have to be ready for battle at all times, and we will probably be engaged in a new battle soon. Okay, please come out and tell everyone about the situation! ”

In the puzzled eyes of everyone, an old woman walked out of the inner room. Look at her full head of white hair, and the appearance of walking tremblingly, she is also in her early sixties. She didn't say hello to anyone, but walked directly to the front of the map and pointed to Duolun and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Sixth Division of the little devils, like the Second Division, is known as the strongest in combat and the most complete in its establishment. The 6th Division has two brigades, the 11th and 36th, of which the 11th Brigade has the 13th and 47th infantry wings; The 36th Brigade is under the jurisdiction of the 23rd and 45th Wings. In addition, there is an artillery wing, a baggage wing, an engineer wing, and a cavalry wing. ”

Today, this artillery wing and baggage wing are stationed in Duolun, protected by the 11th Brigade. However, the 13th Infantry Wing of this brigade has been annihilated by us in formation east of Chifeng. Therefore, the little devils who protect the artillery wing and the baggage wing are only the 47th Infantry Wing. ”

The old woman left after saying that, and no one knew who she really was. However, this old woman is a little eccentric, and her voice is very biedong, like a little girl in her twenties.

"Ladies and gentlemen, according to intelligence, the artillery wing of the 6th Division has four brigades under its jurisdiction, totaling 36 75mm mountain guns and 12 105mm field guns. The little devils have limited resources, and they treat artillery as if they were treasures. Since it's a little devil's baby, we should smash it into a pile of scrap metal. ”

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
