The Independent Battalion was almost exhausted in order to transport a series of supplies to the Jiaxing defense line. Naturally, they were sleeping and repairing in the fortifications before the Japanese army came after them.
Although Tantai Mingyue does not have to carry more than ten kilograms and walk more than 20 kilometers like the officers and soldiers, all the pack horses and carriages have to haul supplies and wounded people. There is no special treatment for either female nurses or Tantai big reporters.
Marching on foot, the stubborn reporter from Tantai University gritted his teeth and helped the female nurses in the medical platoon carry the medicine boxes.
No matter how strong she was mentally, the moment she arrived at the fortification, her body couldn't bear it anymore. She lay down on the quilt that Tang Dao had spread out for her and fell asleep, even with the hot rice prepared by the headquarters for the independent battalion.
I didn't even take a sip of the porridge.
Tang Dao, the commander of the independent battalion, was not as lucky as the officers and soldiers of the independent battalion. As soon as he arrived in the atmosphere, he was notified by the 43rd Army Headquarters to go to a meeting before he even had time to take a few breaths.
Although there are lieutenant generals and deputy commanders, several major generals and brigade commanders, and many colonels, he, the army colonel, is the chief officer with the largest number of soldiers in the 43rd Army now. If he doesn't go to the meeting, the generals will probably feel that
Something is missing.
What's more, Camp Commander Tang has always made shocking remarks and never falls into the trap of convention. What's even more awesome is that facts have proven that his shocking remarks are ultimately correct.
This meeting lasted from 10 o'clock in the morning to the afternoon, covering everything from Jiaxing's combat strategy to what the 43rd Army should do in the future. The division commanders, brigade commanders, and regimental commanders all expressed their opinions. You and I were arguing and arguing. Only Tang
Dao Zai was yawning profusely, absent-mindedly, and only occasionally chimed in a few times.
Because he is the only one who knows best that just discussions at the 43rd Army Headquarters are meaningless! Even these do not depend on the wishes of the headquarters, but on the results of the secret competition among the superstructures.
Judging from the status of Lieutenant General Guo and the 43rd Army in the heart of the seriously ill King of Sichuan Province, there is a high probability that they can win the qualification to retreat. After all, they withstood the bloody attack of an infantry regiment of the Japanese army in Dachang Town.
The record of not retreating for seven days is also the Sichuan Army's greatest honor at present.
Sure enough, in the afternoon, Guo Junzuo, who returned to the military headquarters, made the final decision. The next step was to arrange for those troops to withdraw first and those troops to retreat. This time it was not a 20-kilometer retreat from Jiashan to Jiaxing, but a direct retreat.
Evacuate to Wuhu and cross the river from there. Then we will see whether to go to Pengcheng or directly to Jiujiang on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.
For these, the generals are better than Tang Dao, who only made one suggestion: "If you want the whole army to go smoothly, you must use all your strength to kill the small-scale Japanese infiltration troops in the rear, killing as many as they come, until the Japanese army no longer sacrifices lives."
Although the Japanese reinforcements are coming from Taihu Lake to Jiaxing, the distance is 200 kilometers. Even if they have to march 100 miles every day, it will take at least three to four days. The entire Jiaxing army still has enough time.
This opinion was of course adopted by Guo Junzuo and Commander Liu. There is no doubt that this combat mission naturally fell on his independent battalion. Who made his independent battalion not only have many elites with strong military exploits, but also the Tang Dao who has repeatedly
Here’s the battalion commander who made a surprising move!
Not to mention the 43rd Army, which has less than 2,000 troops, even the 67th Army, which still has 15,000 troops, and the 128th Division, which has 5,000 troops, all take this for granted.
However, Lieutenant General Wu still thoughtfully sent out his cavalry battalion for Tang Dao to deploy, in order to increase Tang Dao's mobility in clearing the Japanese special forces in the rear.
Jiaxing and Jiashan are both plains. Just relying on the two legs of the infantry, you may not be able to find anyone even if you run exhausted, right? But the Japanese can hide in the dark and just observe whether the Chinese want to escape again.
.
After all this work, Tang Dao, who was groggy, just wanted to go back to the station and sleep peacefully for two hours. There were still many things he had to do next.
As a result, when I walked to the station, I saw two sentries having sex with a middle-aged man wearing a robe and a long beard on his face.
Tantai Yunshu is very angry!
He ran excitedly to see his daughter. The guards beside the commander of the 67th Army were not a cover, but simply a pass to move around. When more than a dozen checkpoints heard that he was a guest of the Wu Army, they all gave way respectfully. As a result, he was only a few meters away from his daughter.
When we were only one step away, the living pass was not easy to use. No matter what the guards said, the two sentries refused to let in, saying that the battalion commander had ordered that the whole camp was being repaired and that no outsiders were allowed to enter.
If you want to find a reporter from Tantai, you can wait for them to notify her and ask her to come out to greet you.
Tantai Yunshu can naturally understand the matter of military affairs. At least it proves from the side that the commander of the infantry battalion, known as the independent battalion directly under the 43rd Army, has very strict military discipline.
But the Jiangnan scholar did not expect that he had been waiting outside the sentry post for more than half an hour. His daughter did not show her face, and the sentry who went to call him ignored his anxious questions.
It’s okay to see other people. It’s so difficult to see the daughter you’ve been worried about for months. How can you not be angry if you are as arrogant as Tantai Yunshu?
For the soldiers of the supply company who were on duty at the checkpoint at this time, almost all combat troops were sleeping. Their supply company had received the unprecedented task of guarding the entire battalion. The company commander and deputy issued a death order. This was a battle.
At that time, if someone made a mistake, the serious one would be punished by death, and the minor one would have to be fed to the horse for a month.
Naturally, according to the military order issued by Tang Dao before leaving, not to mention the guards around the commander of the 67th Army, even if the commander of the 67th Army came in person, they would only dare to let Wu Junzuo in and not let this one go.
The handsome old man with a long beard enters.
Moreover, you are still looking for a reporter from Tantai. Why, you are trying to steal a woman from our battalion commander! For the sake of having friendly troops accompanying you to find him, you guys are not allowed to put a sack on you, an old guy, and give him a sap!
For a few soldiers who came from the security corps, this kind of work is simply familiar and not too easy.
The so-called report was actually just that the first-class soldier from the baggage company walked around the fortifications knowingly under the guidance of his squad leader's eyes, and came back without anyone shouting.
Of course, the main reason why these few people have this mentality is that the great talent from Jiangnan is really handsome. He is in his forties or fifties. Although his face is a bit haggard, he is full of bookishness. The long beard he wears does not look like he has not seen it for a long time.
The soldier with the beard looked so rugged, but it actually added a bit of ecstasy, and the figure was quite tall and straight. Wherever he stood, the temperament of a middle-aged elegant man with talent and good looks rushed towards him.
Not to mention women, the former security regiment soldiers who had seen some of the world in Songjiang City felt that they were under a lot of pressure. The battalion commander was very heroic, but in terms of being handsome, really, there was still a bit of a gap between him and this one.
.
Tang Dao is a MAN, but that kind of tough guy style is still quite common in the army. The soldiers have somewhat adapted to it, but Tantai Yunshu has an elegant and bookish attitude that the soldiers are rarely exposed to, which creates psychological pressure.
Nature is normal.
The bastards of the Independence Battalion did this on purpose. The guard Xiaochong was also furious. He told Lao Tantai and rushed to the 67th Army to bring reinforcements.
Lao Tantai persisted for several minutes, and finally realized that these gangsters were completely fooling him and had no intention of letting him in.
As the saying goes, 'Courts first, then soldiers'! Tantai Yunshu was a scholar, but his bones were very hard. It would be strange not to shout with these soldiers who were unhappy with him.
The sentries didn't dare to fight, but the soldier's mentality of "let him do whatever he wants, and the bright moon will shine on the river" was very aggressive. He stood straight with a gun and just ignored the old man!
Especially after seeing Tang Dao walking over.
So, Tang Dao, who walked forward quickly with a frown, saw such a scene. A dog-looking old man was spraying wildly at his soldiers. How could he feel happy?
Who are you? I can only scold my soldiers. Are you the onion?
"Sir!" Several soldiers saluted hurriedly.
Tang Dao simply returned the greeting and glanced at Tantai Yunshu, whose beard was standing straight up in anger, his brows knitted together.
"Old gentleman, this is an important military camp. You are making loud noises here to disturb our soldiers' repairs. From the perspective of military discipline, I have the right to take measures. Please leave, I will give you ten seconds." Tired.
A certain colonel, who held a military meeting for most of the day overnight, was extremely rare and did not ask the cause and effect, and expelled people on the basis of seeing is believing.
Facts have proved that seeing is not necessarily believing. A certain protagonist who has always been protected by God also fell into a big pit because of his own negligence.
"Is this independent camp of yours so arrogant and arrogant?" Tantai Yun breathed a sigh of relief and almost lost his breath.
No wonder the soldiers below are bastards! I bet this officer is also a bird! Judging from his age, he should be a small platoon leader. Such a young officer has his nostrils turned upward. How can my daughter follow such a troop?
Also, grandma, who is the old man? I’m obviously not old enough to know my destiny, okay?
"No matter what you want, old man, but please leave now and don't disturb our officers and soldiers while they are repairing." Tang Dao waved his hand angrily, as if he was shooing away flies.
No matter in his past life or this life, he would never see those literati who think they are superior after reading a little bit. If you have the ability, you lose your pen and pick up a gun and go to the battlefield! You think you are Tantai Mingyue!
I am an old man! Lao Tantai almost lost his temper and snatched the saber from the leggings of the little platoon leader in front of him.
Instead of stabbing him, I shaved off the beautiful beard that I have had for several years to give him a good look. I am not old, okay!
"Okay, you boy, just wait for me!" A certain old man turned around and left.
If he didn't leave, he was worried that he would have a heart attack and be pissed off by the little platoon leader.
After not taking two steps, a female soldier with slightly messy hair walked out of a fortification more than thirty meters away, holding a bowl in one hand and a potato in the other.
The old man and the female soldier just stared at each other 'affectionately' from more than twenty meters apart.
Tang Dao, who was standing behind, was slightly stunned.
"Nanny!" The old man was stunned for a few seconds and almost burst into tears.
"Abba! Why are you here?" Tantai Mingyue looked surprised.
Damn it! Tang Dao was like a bolt from the blue.
Several soldiers from the baggage company wanted to cry at that moment, for themselves, for their own superiors...
