Chapter 979 Fan Changling's retreat order
When Fan Changling heard the report from the communications soldier, he immediately reached out to take the telegram from the telecom soldier, and then read the contents carefully.
"Second, what order is the military headquarters?" The chief of staff looked at Fan Changling anxiously and asked Fan Changling.
The order from the military headquarters at this time must be related to the battle in front of them, but he was not sure what the above plan was planned before he saw the order.
"The military headquarters ordered our division to retreat!" Fan Changling looked at the position that was leaning against the smoke of gunpowder in front of him with some disappointment, and then said unhappily.
The order was brought down. As soldiers, they had to implement it. There was no reason to say about it, but they lost half of their brothers to defend the U-shaped position and the No. 4 position, and he was really unwilling to give it to the Japanese.
"Since the division headquarters' orders, I will arrange now to let our brothers from the 76th Division withdraw from the battle and hand over the task of blocking the Japanese to the Wild Wolf Commando to complete!" The Chief of Staff heard Fan Changling's orders conveying the military headquarters and immediately said to Fan Changling.
"Even if we want to retreat, we can't let that guy Wang Si go to cover our team. Our brothers in the 76th Division are not dead yet! There is no need to owe them to the Wild Wolf Commando!" Fan Changling immediately said to the Chief of Staff when he heard this.
In his opinion, it is embarrassing to let others block them and cover their troops to evacuate safely. Others can use this to eliminate dissidents and get rid of people they dislike, but Fan Changling cannot do this. Not to mention that Wang Si has no personal grudges that cannot be overcome with him. Even if there is, this family hatred is not as great as the national hatred.
Moreover, as a soldier, killing enemies on the battlefield is the highest honor. Now he has to hand over this honor to Wang Si’s commando, and the brothers of the entire 76th Division are insulting to hide. This is an insult to him, and it is a sense of shame that he can never cleanse, so he immediately objected.
"Then the blocking force we left behind is..." When the Chief of Staff heard Fan Changling's words, he naturally knew that his plan was not open and honest enough, and Fan Changling would never agree, so he could only listen to Fan Changling's specific deployment.
"In this way, let Staff Jiang and the Eighth Battalion cut off all the troops, be responsible for blocking the Japanese devils for an hour, and retreating on their own after an hour!" Fan Changling said to the Chief of Staff at this time, "Send someone to inform Wang Si and the others and let them retreat!"
"Yes!" Hearing Fan Changling's order, the Chief of Staff immediately responded and then conveyed the order to various combat troops as quickly as possible.
The battle on the No. 4 position was still ongoing with artillery fire and gunfire, and the battle continued to go on fiercely, with the smell of blood and gun smoke spreading the entire position.
The Japanese and the brothers of the Eighth Battalion were both killed and injured in the battle, and the bunkers on the positions were overturned to the ground. At this moment, the trenches could not see any raised positions in the trenches, as if they had been leveled.
"This won't work. Staff Jiang and the others can't hold on at all. If reinforcements are not sent up, the No. 4 position will definitely be lost!" Han Zhengdong saw the situation on the No. 4 position and immediately looked at Wang Si worriedly and said.
"It's not that the Fan surnamed will fight, but he just left the Eighth Battalion to ignore it. Isn't this waiting for the Eighth Battalion to be sacrificed on the position?" He Guoqing said immediately, as if he felt that not supporting the Eighth Battalion was Fan Changling's decision-making issue.
"Now, even if we have the intention to go up to reinforce, we can do nothing. After all, we have not received the order!" Chu Huaichen continued and said.
"That's right, we can't find excuses for those guys to attack. We have to save our lives to continue fighting the Japanese!" Zhuangzi also said at this time. It seemed that he had similar opinions to everyone, and he did not agree to reinforce the Eighth Battalion without orders.
Wang Si was still the same as before, without saying a word, but continued to look at the No. 4 position, full of worry and helplessness.
At this moment, Staff Li, who was sent to convey the orders to the division headquarters, came to the U-shaped position, found Wang Si, saluted Wang Si, and said: "The division commander, the wild wolf commando immediately evacuated the U-shaped position and retreated to the old Huaishan area of Pingyang to deploy defense!"
"What? Retreat?" Hearing this, all the officers on the position looked at Staff Li with confusion and doubt, as if they had to figure out the situation.
You should know that the battle at the No. 4 position is now in a tight spot, and the division headquarters did not consider sending reinforcements to reinforcements, but issued an order to withdraw the team from the battle, which really made them unable to understand.
You should know that Pingyang Lao Huaishan is nearly a hundred miles away from the Miluo River, and it is not the main position to guard Changsha. They really don’t understand what Fan Changling wants to transfer their commando team to that irrelevant position.
"This is the order of the division headquarters, you can execute it!" Staff Li looked like he was not going to explain anything. After closing the order in his hand, he immediately said to everyone.
"Yes! We promise not to carry out the order without any discount!" Wang Si immediately said to Staff Li, as if he had already planned to execute the order in his heart, so he said this reassuring sentence in front of Staff Li.
After saying this, Wang Si turned to Han Zhengdong beside him and said, "Zhengdong, immediately notify Dr. Shen and the brothers from the Logistics Department, take action now and quickly evacuate to Pingyang Lao Huaishan! He Guoqing's combat team is responsible for cutting off the rear, and the Hei Niu combat team is clearing the way in front of the Hei Niu combat team, and the Dahei combat team and Chu Huaichen's artillery team are in the center to retreat with the commando team!"
"Yes!" Hearing Wang Si's deployment, Han Zhengdong immediately responded, and then quickly conveyed the experience. All combat teams immediately packed up their things and carried out an emergency transfer, obviously they did not intend to stay for a moment.
Seeing that Wang Si had already been deployed, Staff Li turned around and walked back to the command post of the division headquarters, without intending to waste time for a moment.
Wang Si and the others quickly cleaned up, and the team was ready to retreat, but He Guoqing and the others were really unsure. They didn't know why the division headquarters wanted to transfer them from the U-shaped position. So when they were lined up, they stood in front of Wang Si, looking at Wang Si.
Although they didn't say anything, their expressions had already revealed their thoughts about why the division commanded this order.
"Fan Changling is also open and honest. The troops are about to retreat. He left his own troops to block the Japanese, but transferred us teams that are not the same as them from the battlefield. This is not something that ordinary military power holders can do!" Wang Si saw them all confused, so he stepped forward and said.
