Chapter 40 Silence

Feng Shengfa left after he said that.

While ordering the troops to assemble, Xu Shijiu asked Cao Jiao: "Cao Jiao, is there anything wrong?"

Cao Jiao then remembered her purpose and hurriedly reported: "Captain, the wounded man rescued by Li Mu woke up. He said that he was also from our 58th Division, and he was the adjutant of Han Keqiang, the commander of the 348th Regiment."

"348 Regiment?" Xu Shijiu's face changed slightly. He knew that Feng Shengfa was looking for the 348 Regiment that had lost contact, but he had never found it. He asked again, "What did he say?"

Cao Jiao's expression dimmed and she whispered: "He said that the 348th Regiment had already died in Longtouling for the whole regiment."

The Lu Jian Gang, Mou Enguang, Hu Jie and others standing next to them all turned aside, and only Gao Shenxing was saying: "Another group of cannon fodder."

At this time, the troops had already completed the assembly, and Xu Shijiu didn't bother to talk nonsense to Gao Shenxing. While sending Xiaodanzi to report the news about the 348th Regiment to Feng Shengfa, he led the troops to set off. In addition to Cao Jiao's health team, this time even Li Zihan's engineer platoon and Lao Luotuo's kitchen squad were in.

Ye Ruxue, Gu Yaqin, Yu Huan and Cao Jiao stood at the entrance of the village and watched the officers and soldiers of the 19th Brigade go away. They were all silent and unwilling to speak, especially Ye Ruxue. She heard all the harsh words Gao Shenxing said just now. As a war correspondent, she was also extremely angry at the injustice suffered by the 19th Brigade.

Ye Ruxue did not comment on her previous deeds because she did not participate in it personally, but she experienced the battle of Niu Shitun and witnessed the bloody sacrifice of the officers and soldiers of the 19th Brigade at close range. She was deeply shocked by the iron-for-solidity shown by these bloody men, and was also angry at the indifference and ruthlessness shown by the top leaders of the national army.

The 19th Brigade was undoubtedly of great merit when defending Niu Shitun. If the 19th Brigade had not defended Niu Shitun, even if there was a terrain advantage of the East and West Luling, it would be different whether the 58th Division could defend it. If the 58th Division could not defend the East and West Luling, then the situation on the entire De'an battlefield would immediately reverse.

What's more, the 19th Brigade not only defended Niu Shitun, but also protected the east and west Guling defense lines of the 58th Division, and even severely damaged the 10th Peak Regiment of the Little Japan, and also killed a colonel captain of a colonel in the Little Japan. Since the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, the Kuomintang army has fought many large-scale battles with the Little Japan. Have several registrars killed?

Just for this, it would be too much to give Xu Shijiu a blue sky and white sun medal

But what happened? As a result, Feng Shengfa asked Shangfeng for the telegram to give the 19th Brigade to the 19th Brigade to commend the telegram as if the stones were sinking into the sea. The officers and soldiers of the 19th Brigade stretched their necks and looked through Qiushui, but they never saw a reward. Xu Shijiu was very calm and didn't care about this experience. Thinking of Ye Ruxue's beautiful eyes, she was filled with tears, because she knew that behind the scent, there was actually too much bitterness hidden. Xu Shijiu just never mentioned it to anyone.

Before dark, the Japanese troops from both east and west launched the craziest wave of offensives at the same time.

Feng Shengfa was most worried that Chen Shizheng's 344th Regiment would not be able to withstand. He originally planned to transfer the 19th Brigade to the hourglass tip, but the first one was Qi Yongnian's 343rd Regiment. After Qi Yongnian was trained by Feng Shengfa, he had already had ambitions to die. After returning to the main position of the high mountain, even though the troops fought with only a hundred people, they never said anything.

It was the battalion commander Li Shijian who secretly ran to the 58th Division headquarters to inquire about Feng Shengfa.

Feng Shengfa hurriedly removed the 19th Brigade from the hourglass tip on the western front and adjusted the mountain tip on the eastern front, which stabilized the defense line again. When Qi Yongnian led the "all officers and soldiers of the 343rd Regiment" to retreat from the mountain tip position, including Qi Yongnian, there were only more than 20 people left in the entire regiment, and they could not even get a row.

The high mountain peak on the eastern front has been temporarily stabilized due to the joining of the 19th Brigade, but the hourglass tip on the western front is no longer possible.

Under the tide of the Japanese Division, Chen Shizheng's 344th Regiment was also seriously injured. At night, most of the 344th Regiment was killed or injured, and the entire regiment added less than a company. Faced with the situation where it could collapse at any time, Feng Shengfa had to give up his initial thoughts of making meritorious service and put the 347th Regiment, which was held in his hand, on the tip of the hourglass.

After giving an order to transfer Wei Changlu's 347th Regiment to the hourglass tip, Feng Shengfa walked out of the division headquarters and sat on the stone mill at the gate to smoke one by one. Looking at Feng Shengfa's silent appearance, Deputy Division Commander He Lingxiao, Chief of Staff Yang Shaoren and several staff members felt very uncomfortable. They would rather Feng Shengfa scold them a few words.

A combat staff member walked over and said to Feng Shengfa, "You have to continue commanding the teacher."

Feng Shengfa said, no need, fight as much as you should, and that's how your left and right are.

Yang Shaoren said, why not send a telegram to the Corps Headquarters and ask for support from friendly and neighboring troops?

He Lingxiao also said angrily, "You can't really get it all out, you have to leave some seeds for our 58th Division?"

Feng Shengfa fell into silence again, and it was a long time of silence. Since then, until the end of the Wanjialing War, Feng Shengfa never said a word.

Xue Yue finally had the intention to sit down and have a meal.

From the time when he discovered the whereabouts of Japan near Longtouling yesterday morning, Xue Yue had not had a grain of rice for more than 30 hours. When the situation stabilized slightly, Xue Yue suddenly felt hungry. Chief of Staff Wu Yizhi quickly asked the troupe of the Corps to bring the supper to Xue Yue.

At this time, the situation on the battlefield of Wanjialing was clear. The 4th Army, the 8th Army, the 5th Army and the 5th Pei had all entered the attack position. The 5th Army had also moved to Baishui Street west of Wanjialing, just a short distance from the 58th Division. Even if the 58th Division of Feng Shengfa did not defeat at this time, the situation would not collapse.

As long as there is no accident, the 10th Peak Group of the Japanese is doomed.

Seeing that Xue Yue was in a good mood, Wu Yizhi whispered: "Master, the 58th Division has been guarding Wanjialing for a day and night, and is facing the attacks of the two Japanese divisions. Although Feng Shengfa did not complain to the chief, the casualties would probably not be small. Otherwise, the 18th Division would be replaced by the 58th Division, so as to leave some seeds for the 58th Division."

Xue Yue paused the chopsticks in his hand, but he shook his head after thinking about it: "It's not the time yet."

From a military perspective, Xue Yue's decision was undoubtedly right, because at this time, the genius was just now. Neither the Japanese 10th U Division was eager to break through or the Japanese 10th U Division was eager to break through, and they were still fighting to fight for beasts. At this time, the 18th and 5th Pei were replaced, and the result might not be good, because the replacement of troops would cause a certain degree of chaos, and maybe the Japanese might be able to break through the defense line in one go.

Therefore, the most appropriate way at this time is to make the 58th Division continue to defend Wanjialing and continue to consume the spirit of the little Japanese. When the spirit of the little Japanese is almost consumed and its momentum is exhausted, the 18th Pei will further dampen the confidence of the little Japanese, and will also make the little Japanese more desperate.

But from an emotional perspective, Wu Yizhi did not want the 58th Division to be completely defeated in Wanjialing. The 58th Division gave Wu Yizhi a very good impression. He could fight tough battles and never complain. He would be happy to be ordered to do any task on the top of the peak, and he would never frown even if he was a mortal task. For the commander of the Corps, such a unit was simply a treasure.

Wu Yizhi even wanted to suggest that Xue Yue simply detain the 58th Division in the L Corps. Although the 58th Division was Yu Jishi's starting unit and Feng Shengfa and Yu Jishi had an extraordinary friendship, in essence, Feng Shengfa and Yu Jishi were completely different types of people. Moreover, under the influence of Feng Shengfa, the 58th Division had basically no shadow of Yu Jishi.

If the L Corps can have such a direct force, it will be useful at critical moments.
