Chapter 57: Great Harvest
Tachibana Kiyo struggled on the ground for a minute or two before slowly dying.
No one cared about his life or death. Some soldiers even thought that this would be an advantage for him, so they should tie him to a stake and cut him open like the captain did last time.
In this battle, I don’t know how many soldiers will sleep here forever. In addition to the joy of victory, the eyes of the soldiers are more filled with sorrow for losing their comrades.
"The group, according to statistics, there are more than 800 casualties, and there are more than 200 slightly injured people at the veterinarian. Even the more than 100 seriously injured people may...more than half can't hold on. We can still stand, so
There are only more than 600 people left.”
Meng Fan had a sad look on his face, he held a notebook in his hand and lowered his head and said. In the thick stack of rosters, he crossed out countless names one by one...
The seriously injured are basically missing arms and legs. Without reliable medical staff and professional surgeries, it is impossible to save the lives just by relying on anti-inflammatory drugs and hemostatic drugs and the superficial medical skills of half-experienced veterinarians.
Liao Mingyu closed his eyes silently. After this battle, the more than 1,500 people who followed him to Nantianmen suffered close to two-thirds of the casualties, and the entire regiment was almost wiped out.
Those are not just a set of numbers, they are Chinese soldiers with living flesh and blood! Although the achievements are brilliant, these are all victories gained by the soldiers paying the price of blood.
"Battalion Commander Meng, you can't settle the account like this. I just went to see the veterinarian. The more than 200 lightly wounded people at the veterinarian are not a big problem. They can pick up the gun again after a month or two of training."
Long Wenwen walked slowly with his gun sideways and said leisurely.
"There were one or two hundred wounded soldiers we sent back to Zenda yesterday. Counting them, our regiment can still guarantee at least a thousand people. Hehe, in this battle, two brigades will be wiped out...hehe."
Long Wenwen was already smiling from ear to ear. Now that such a huge achievement fell on their heads, it was really exciting.
Meng Nuan curled his lips and did not answer.
Yes, although the casualties were heavy, the battle loss ratio of 1:2.5 and the annihilation of so many small Japanese forces was not worth it.
"Ding, the host personally killed the Japanese deputy commander Tachibana Kiyo and randomly unlocked the equipment: American-made SCR-536 walkie-talkie."
As if he sensed Liao Mingyu's irritability, the system voice came to his mind at the right time.
SCR-536? That individual infantry radio that is bigger than Big Brother? Liao Mingyu is excited. This thing is a good thing. Although the intercom range is not long, the maximum is only about 1.5 kilometers, but it is compared with the radio that weighs dozens of kilograms.
, the advantage lies in its flexibility and small size.
In this era, no one except the United States has such company- and platoon-level wireless communication equipment. Such equipment is generally used in company- and platoon-level combat units. It is responsible for contacting superior commanders, cooperating with neighboring troops, and reporting reconnaissance or encounter situations in a timely manner.
The situation will be reported to the superiors, and the superiors or friendly troops who have timely grasp the information will make corresponding operational adjustments.
Compared with the previous communication method that relied on messengers, walkie-talkies are much more efficient and timely, and communication is more guaranteed. You can clearly know whether the information has been accurately delivered. From today's perspective, walkie-talkies are as convenient as walkie-talkies.
, which can improve the combat flexibility of grassroots units to a higher level.
Haha, after getting the walkie-talkie, this guy Meng Fan is going to lose his job, Liao Mingyu couldn't help but think in his heart.
"The battlefield analysis system is opened: the Battle of Nantianmen is over. The host defended Nantianmen with 1566 people. It successfully defended 11 Japanese attacks and annihilated 2270 Japanese troops. Among them were three lieutenants and majors...
612 of our own troops were killed and 334 injured. Combat evaluation: excellent, tactical evaluation A,
Obtained 5,000 points as a combat reward, 4,000 points as a tactical reward, deducted 946 combat casualties, and obtained a total of 8,054 points. The remaining points for the host were 10,433.
As an additional reward, 4 Krupp 105mm howitzers and 300 rounds of FH.Gr. high-explosive bombs have been stored in the warehouse, and the guns and various types of ammunition have been unlocked in the mall. The report is completed."
Krupp 105 howitzer! Haha, now I finally have a large-caliber howitzer. I will no longer have to take heavy artillery fire from the little devils without fighting back.
Liao Mingyu was so excited that he almost jumped up. This battle was really worth it. Not only did he get back the points he had spent, but the key was that he had been strengthened by several heavy weapons. After returning to Zenda to rest for a while, he would
The Sichuan Army Corps, do you still need to look at the little Japs’ faces?
The two people next to them saw that their group leader had been alternately sad and excited since the beginning, and his facial expressions were changing crazily as if he had been stimulated by something.
Long Wenwen was afraid that he wouldn't be able to bear it, so he comforted him with a little concern: "Tuan Zuo, it's nothing, don't overthink it. The foundation of our large army is still there."
"I can't think of your sister. The ordering soldier, let the brothers rest for a while, and then quickly clean the battlefield. Take away everything that can be taken away, and destroy everything that cannot be taken away. Don't leave a bullet for the little devil!"
"Yes! Group seat."
Then Liao Mingyu walked to a high place and shouted loudly towards the soldiers of the Sichuan Army.
"Brothers, when everything is sorted out, we will go home!"
"Oh...! Go home...!!!" the soldiers of the Sichuan Army cheered loudly. Many soldiers couldn't help but shed tears in their eyes. They had been waiting for this moment for too long!
At 6 o'clock in the morning, the sky was already getting brighter, and the gunfire that had been ringing on the Nantianmen all night finally stopped.
Yu Xiaoqing stayed up all night. He stood on the shore blowing the river breeze all night, raising and lowering the telescope in his hand dozens of times.
He Shuguang and Zhang Lixian, who were standing next to them, couldn't bear to persuade them: "Team members, go back and rest."
"Yes, Tuanzuo, you have been standing all night, your health is in serious trouble."
Yu Xiaoqing did not answer, but silently raised the telescope again and said to himself: "There is no sound of cannons. They should have fired all the guns, right?"
"The whole night, the battle has been like this, there are no innocent Chinese soldiers!"
"We...are all sinners."
He Shuguang and He Shuguang looked at each other. They didn't know why the group leader suddenly said such words, and they didn't know how to reply. They had to lower their heads and stand silently behind him.
Yu Xiaoqing wanted to kill the enemy, but was unable to do so. He knew the importance of the Nujiang defense line, and there was no point crossing the river to fight for Nantianmen with the Japanese at this moment.
Moreover, his troops cannot withstand the torment, and it is the Yu family's painstaking efforts to kill each one. Without full certainty, he cannot use his own soldiers to make bets.
He now desperately hopes that the Japanese army on the opposite side will continue to forcefully cross the Nu River after capturing Nantianmen, so that he can give these overestimated little devils a head-on blow. As long as he holds the Nu River, this huge credit will be his.
Coupled with Tang Ji's reminder, Yu Xiaoqing was very confused about Liao Mingyu. He admired his sacrifice of life and did what Yu Xiaoqing wanted to do but did not dare to do. However, at the same time, he was afraid of his ability and regarded him as the greatest.
Competitors.
Alas, I hate it, but now the dust has settled. Facing such a fierce attack by the Japanese army, the Sichuan Army on the opposite side is destined to have no chance of survival.
"Send the order and let the troops prepare to be on guard against the little Japs crossing the Nu River!"
Yu Xiaoqing suddenly said loudly that he had determined that there would be no trace of Chinese soldiers on the opposite position.
"Yes!...Huh? Tuanzu, listen to what that is!"
He Shuguang, who had just turned around to leave, suddenly heard a roar coming from the opposite hillside and was immediately confused.
Chapter completed!
