[69 Book Bar-www.] Chapter 13 Enrollment for further studies
The retreat of the Japanese army relieved the crisis in Loutang Town. Shuirou Company also took advantage of the situation and returned to the 517th Regiment. The number of soldiers was only 67, not including the sick and wounded.
Commander Zhang Shixi was extremely surprised that under the siege of the Japanese army, he could still maintain a team of 67 people. What kind of command ability is this? At that time, Shui Rou was appointed as the commander of the first battalion. This is a warrior, rare 's warrior.
This desperate fight forced the Japanese army to re-evaluate the combat strength of the Chinese army and gave up its dream of encircling and annihilating the Chinese army.
Because the Japanese army underestimated the determination of the Chinese soldiers, the Japanese army also consumed most of its troops in continuous battles. The reserve supply of troops was insufficient, and the attack had no follow-up power, so it had to stop the momentum of the attack.
In addition, the fire support range of the warships was also out of reach. Facing the tough offensive of the Chinese army, the Japanese army had to temporarily cease the war, and the two sides entered a state of confrontation. Shui Rou's 517th Regiment moved to the outer post and joined the 87th Division. .
The 517th Regiment has been crippled, with less than half of its personnel remaining. Shui Rou also returned to Kunshan with the army.
In the military camp in Kunshan, Shuirou felt more and more frustrated the more she thought about it.
"The Japanese beat them up so much that they killed so many brothers and they didn't compensate for the losses? The Japanese have to pay some blood. They have to pay for the pension."
Shuirou took advantage of everyone's fatigue and deep sleep to leave the military camp at midnight and ran towards the Hongkou District of the Japanese Concession where the Japanese army was located.
Shuirou secretly found the Bank of Japan - Sakura Bank. Shuirou took a good look at the location and floated to the balcony on the third floor. She took out the dagger, gently opened the balcony window, and floated into the room silently. From top to bottom. , he killed all the people like a civet cat. He went into the basement. He used his dagger to directly dig out a big hole the size of a basin in the wall of the vault and got inside.
Shui Rou looked at the packed boxes on the floor inside the Bank of Japan's vault, dozens and hundreds of tons of gold, hundreds of millions of silver dollars, jade jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
Shui Rou was completely angered. This was all the blood and sweat of the Chinese people, and it was robbed by the Japanese invaders. They collected it all and returned the same way. However, the guards in the bank were all dead. Shui Rou was unknown. He returned to the Kunshan military camp.
The troops of the 517th Regiment retreated to Changshu to replenish their troops after taking a rest.
On May 5, the Japanese army unilaterally declared an armistice. Shui Rou's troops also got a breather and reorganized the army. However, facing the half-disabled 87th Division, the German instructors still felt heartbroken. After ten years of sharpening a sword, one sword can win the battle. Wither.
In April, Jiang Shuirou's troops had returned to Changshu for reorganization. Shuirou also secretly sent silver dollars to the homes of his dead comrades in his company. Each of the dead in battle was given 1,000 silver dollars, and he also paid tribute to the disabled. The soldiers rescued each of them with 500 silver dollars and were sternly told not to say anything because he had obtained it by robbing a Japanese trading company.
In addition, each soldier in the company also received corresponding compensation of 300 silver dollars. Even the regiment leader also received 1,000 yuan.
Jiang Shuirou felt that this battle was fought smoothly and vividly. She fully displayed her abilities. At the same time, she also felt that her skills had made breakthrough progress. She had wiped out the humiliation she had suffered in the Northeast with one blood.
But he is also self-reflecting. He is now the battalion commander, but his performance, his military thoughts and theories in this war are too lacking. In this battle against Japan, he showed his commanding ability.
It was too bad. I didn’t know how to do it well in many areas. I still felt inadequate in commanding the troops. I needed to learn. So I asked his regimental commander.
"Captain, are there any schools where you can learn military skills?"
"Does our Central Military Army have such a school?"
"Then how do I get into school?"
"I will write you a letter of recommendation and it will be approved by the teacher. But you have to take the exam and pass it before you can enter the school. We happen to be recruiting students right now. If you can come in time, you will be in luck."
Shuirou was overjoyed when she heard this. She quickly urged the regiment leader to write a letter. She was worried that she would not be able to catch up with the enrollment this time. So Shuirou entered the ninth class of the Kuomintang Central Military Academy.
Jiang Shuirou was admitted to the Central Military Academy with excellent test scores, illustrious military exploits, and fierce skills. She began systematic study of military theory and tactics.
Jiang Shuirou, who has a wide range of knowledge, wastes no time at all. He squats in the school library every day, with more than a dozen books in front of him every day. So much so that his study of military command theory is much better than others.
Shuirou knew that students should unite teachers and students, so Shuirou started inviting German teachers to dinner every day to strengthen their relationship. She took advantage of this opportunity to learn German from German teachers. The German teachers were also surprised by Shuirou's agility and intelligence.
.Easy to learn.
In this way, Shui Rou is happy with both teachers and students. Money is not a problem for him.
Shuirou exchanged the U.S. dollars for silver dollars and deposited them in Citibank. After all, silver dollars are the hard currency circulating in China, and Chinese people are still very dependent on metal currencies.
Silver dollars are still very valuable in China. Since ancient times, Chinese people have only recognized metal currency and do not believe in paper money. The idea of the gold standard is extremely serious. They only recognize gold, silver and copper coins, which are heavy and heavy.
He was worried about China's banks. He was afraid that once the war started and the war failed, the Japanese would snatch away the money in China's banks.
Shuirou's favorite was an old German man. His name was Hammer, a German retired soldier with the rank of colonel. He had relatively high attainments in the military and was also very kind. Shuirou had the most contact with him.
He often took some picture albums and told Shuirou about Germany, Britain, Europe, and the United States, which broadened Shuirou's horizons during the chat.
Shuirou started to learn German. He didn’t have to learn it, but his learning ability was too strong and was already much better than others. He had too much free time, too much energy, and no place to spend it. So he thought of learning German.
I can still talk to the old German man. It is extremely comfortable to talk to him.
Grandpa also said no, art is too much for your body. Just treat it as a joke.
Just like that, I wanted to go to the bookstore to buy some German books. On Sunday, my rest day, Shui Rou went to the business bookstore located in the bustling Xinjiekou.
This is the largest bookstore in Nanjing. The facade is beautifully decorated. The large glass windows reflect the rich collection of books inside. Once you see it, you can't help but walk into this ocean of knowledge.
"Welcome, how can I help you?"
A greeting like a silver bell and an oriole awakened Shui Rou from her deep thoughts.
"Oh - hello. Where are the books about German?"
"Sir, please, what books do you need?"
"I just started learning German, do you have any good suggestions?"
"Oh--, to learn a foreign language, you must first have a good dictionary, and then find some easier-to-understand books to learn. May I suggest you buy a book of poetry? Here is Haimer's original poetry collection."
"Then please help me find a dictionary and this book of poetry. Just pack them together."
