Chapter 339 I believe in Jiu Ye
(Chapter 338 is applying for the lifting of the ban. The content is quite interesting. Please watch it back.)
The battle was cruel. So far, in addition to the more than 200 soldiers of the supplementary regiment, many of them ran away, and only more than 1,200 reunite troops were left, of which about 300 had lost their guns and ammunition, and their morale plummeted.
Guan Lie gathered the troops. He looked at the officers and soldiers of the supplementary regiment who were disguised and said in shame: "Brothers! Jiu Ye and Gui Army officers and soldiers were less than 200, but they blocked the attack of more than 1,000 Japanese soldiers. Let's look at us. There are 1,800 people in our supplementary regiment, and there are less than 200 Japanese troops attacking us. As a result, you see, what are you all like? It's really embarrassing to the parents and villagers in your hometown. How do you face the parents and villagers in your hometown when you go back in the future?
Jiu Ye is powerful, he is a great hero, and we can't compare, so we won't talk about it. But the brothers of the Gui Army are not as tall as you and not as strong as you. Why can they fight and you not do it?
Are we holding a gun and a fire stick in our hands? And you guys even lost the fire stick. It's simply, it's..."
Guan Lie's face turned red, and he really couldn't continue to say it.
The officers and soldiers were very ashamed by him, and a company commander said, "Royal, stop talking, take us back to fight a war and pick up the face of us Guizhou people."
Guan Lie said appreciatively: "Well said it! Brothers! We can't bear the infamy of a coward. Are you willing to fight back with me?"
After Guan Lie finished speaking, he looked at his officers and soldiers with hope, hoping that they could cheer up and go back with him.
However, the officers and soldiers of the supplementary regiment were already scared to death at this moment. The officers and soldiers looked at me, and I looked at you, and finally they all lowered their heads and said nothing.
Guan Lie was so angry that he trembled all over. He pointed at the officers and soldiers of the supplementary regiment and cursed loudly: "You cowards! Cowards. It's really a pool of mud, and it has lost all the faces of us Guizhou people."
At this moment, Qin Feng came with forty or fifty soldiers from the supplementary regiment. These soldiers followed Gao Jiu and others to participate in the blocking battle. They saw with their own eyes that the Japanese devils were beaten in a mess. Only then did they realize that the devils were also humans, and they would die if they were shot on bullets. These officers and soldiers were no longer so scared and had already recovered their morale.
Qin Feng led them over to let them show up and encourage the morale of the regiment officers and soldiers.
A squad leader of the supplementary regiment who participated in the blocking war came to everyone with Qin Feng's encouragement. He said, "Reporting the regiment, I just joined the blocking war against the Japanese with Master Jiu. Can you tell me a few words to my brothers?"
Guan Lie agreed to his request.
The squad leader stood in front of the team and said excitedly: "Brothers! The dozens of brothers in our supplementary regiment just now followed the great hero Jiu Ye to fight a blocking battle. Jiu Ye is really amazing. One shot at one, killing the Japanese. The Japanese are nothing great. They were born to their parents. If they were shot, they would still kill them. I killed two Japanese with my own hands just now."
When he said this, the officers and soldiers of the supplementary regiment who came with him also shouted excitedly: "I will kill a Japanese man."
"I beat one to death, too." "What's so great about this? I beat two to death."
These officers and soldiers came from different companies of the supplementary regiment. They had many fellow villagers and comrades in the army. Their narrative was the most convincing. Seeing their mental state, everyone was infected and began to regain their confidence. They thought that these officers and soldiers who seemed very excited usually performed worse than themselves, but now they were so proud! They were not willing to be outdone and began to try. Everyone whispered to each other, and the atmosphere of the army began to become lively.
At this time, the squad leader shouted: "The Japanese are nothing great. Even Chen ASong can fight the Japanese. Chen ASong, tell me your experience."
Speaking of this, he felt a little rude and hurriedly said to Guan Lie: "Reporting the team, let Chen A-song say a few words."
Chen Asong is 17 years old, dark and thin, and looks a little ugly. He is usually very brave and is often bullied by other soldiers. His status in the class is very low, and no one looks at him in front of him. When he left his hometown, he had been abandoned and was beaten with 20 military sticks in front of the entire regiment of officers and soldiers. The officers and soldiers who supplemented the regiment had some impression of him.
Guan Lie thought this was a very good example, so he immediately said: "Chen A-song, tell them about your experience in war."
Although Chen Asong dared to fight the Japanese, it was too difficult for her to let him speak in public.
Chen Asong stood in front of the queue and looked at the dark crowd. He suddenly became scared again. He stammered and couldn't speak. Finally, he simply lowered his head and looked at his feet.
When the officers and soldiers saw him, they were amused. Many people looked down on him and made harsh sarcastic sounds.
Guan Lie encouraged him and said, "Chen Asong, you say it boldly."
Chen Asong looked at Guan Lie, then looked at the officers and soldiers in the queue, but still didn't know what to say.
At this time, a tall soldier from the same class as him, who often bullies him, said, "Chen A-song, look at your bear-like appearance, you don't even dare to say anything, so why don't you go down quickly."
After being ridiculed by the tall soldier, Chen Asong suddenly raised his head and said loudly: "I killed three Japanese devils, I killed three Japanese devils."
Hearing this, the queue suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at him like a fool, with disbelief on his face. Then the silence was broken and everyone burst into laughter. The tall soldier said sarcastically: "You are talking nonsense. If you can kill three Japanese devils, I can drive all the Japanese back to my hometown."
"What he said is true." At this time, Qin Feng came over and said, "I saw it with my own eyes. Many people saw it at that time. Chen A-song was very brave. He really killed three Japanese. If the Japanese killed with grenades were included, there were more than three Japanese."
The officers and soldiers who came back with Chen ASong also came out to testify for Chen ASong. Even the squad leader who spoke before made a certificate for him. He pointed to the tall soldier and said, "When Chen ASong fought the Japanese, you ran here. Do you still have the face to laugh at Chen ASong?"
This time, everyone turned their eyes to the tall soldier, full of mockery and blame. The tall soldier felt ashamed, his face flushed and lowered his head in shame. The officers and soldiers who mocked Chen Asong just now also felt ashamed.
Seeing this situation, Guan Lie took the opportunity to shout loudly: "Brothers! Chen Asong is a good person. He has won glory for our Guizhou children. I want to repay him for his merits and reward him with ten dollars. The brothers who fought the Japanese with him will also reward him according to their merits."
The fleeing military officers and soldiers all looked at Chen Asong and others with envy.
Guan Lie continued, "You all saw that Chen A-song can fight the Japanese, and the brothers who came back with him can fight the Japanese. They are all brothers from our supplementary regiment. They can fight the Japanese, can't you fight? Now, I ask you, do you dare to go back and fight a war with the Japanese?"
"Dare." The officers and soldiers shouted in unison.
Guan Lie shouted with dissatisfaction: "Didn't you eat? Or was it scared by the Japanese? Are you willing to be pointed at the back and called you cowards by others? Let me ask you again, do you dare to go back and fight me?"
"Dare, dare, dare!" The morale of the officers and soldiers was aroused. They raised their fists and roared loudly.
These methods of boosting morale were taught by Gao Jiu to Qin Feng, and Qin Feng was even more impressed by Gao Jiu. Gao Jiu did not personally give passionate speeches to the officers and soldiers of the Supplementary Regiment, but instead delayed the attack of the Japanese through clever tactical arrangements, and also trained the brave fighting spirit of some officers and soldiers of the Supplementary Regiment. Through their own opinions, the combat morale of the entire Supplementary Regiment was basically restored.
That's what Gao Jiu thought. These young Guizhou soldiers were also passionate young people. As long as they were led to a few victories, they would gradually grow up like Jiang Xiaomei's former team members.
Not long after, Gao Jiu also rushed over. Seeing that the supplementary regiment had recovered his morale, he decided to take them to fight a war, completely restore and increase the morale of the supplementary regiment.
Gao Jiu called Guan Lie and the officers of the Supplementary Regiment together, briefly surveyed the terrain, and set up an ambush position.
The summer daytime is long, and it is already 7:40, and the visibility is still high. The officers and soldiers of the supplementary regiment saw that the Gui army ambushing the enemy in front of them retreated. Soon after, the brigade of Japanese soldiers chased after him.
After the blocking battle along the way, the Japanese army lost many people, which made the Japanese captain furious. He now has more than 800 people under his command, but he doesn't believe that he can't eat the national army troops in front of him, which only has more than 100 people. He made up his mind to catch up with them no matter what, destroy them, and let out a strong anger.
He really didn't expect that the replenishment regiment, which had long collapsed, had recovered its morale and was waiting for it.
7:52. All the Japanese troops entered the ambush circle. Gao Jiu observed carefully and finally found the figure of the Japanese captain. He picked up the sniper rifle and shot the Japanese captain in the forehead with one shot.
The gunshots were orders, and the officers and soldiers of the 58th Division’s Guard Battalion opened fire! The officers and soldiers of the 62nd Division’s machine gun platoon and the engineer platoon opened fire, and the officers and soldiers of the supplementary regiment also opened fire together.
The bullets rushed towards the Japanese brigade, which was almost unprepared, like a heavy rain.
Gao Jiu kept shooting Japanese officers, Ning Wen, Ning Wu, Li Xiaoshan and Jia Liu, and also shot Japanese officers, machine gunners and grenade launchers.
After a series of blocking wars, the morale of the Japanese army itself has been much lower. Now it has suffered a sudden blow and lost command, and their morale has become even lower.
Although the Japanese army was well-trained and could still counterattack quickly when the commander was temporarily replaced, as the commander was constantly killed, the Japanese army's troops finally became in chaos.
As the casualties continued to increase, the Japanese army finally could not withstand such a blow and retreated to the way they came.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Gao Jiu issued an order to charge.
Guan Lie jumped up regardless of the pain. He held up his pistol and shouted loudly: "Brothers, rush with me!" He said that and rushed out first.
The officers and soldiers of the supplementary regiment saw that the Japanese army was beaten so embarrassed and had already begun to flee, and their morale became even stronger and they rushed down one by one.
The officers and soldiers of the 58th Division's Guard Battalion, as well as the officers and soldiers of the machine gun platoon and engineer platoon of the 62nd Division, rushed forward.
Gao Jiu was worried that the Japanese army would recover from the chaos and organize an effective counterattack. If that were the case, the officers and soldiers of the supplementary regiment were still no match for the Japanese army. So he led Ning Wen, Ning Wu, Jia Liu and others to rush down, constantly knocking down the Japanese commanders and machine gunners who were trying to block the attack, leaving the Japanese army in a state of chaos.
Finally, the Japanese army completely collapsed and they ran desperately towards the way they came.
Half an hour later, Gao Jiu ordered the pursuit to stop.
This ambush defeated a whole squad of Japanese troops and wiped out more than 300 Japanese devils. In addition to the previous blocking war, the entire battle wiped out more than 500 Japanese devils, which was a very brilliant victory.
"Victed."
"Victed."
Looking at the corpses of the Japanese everywhere, the officers and soldiers who replenished the regiment were extremely excited and cheered loudly.
At this moment, their morale was very high. Even when facing more Japanese, they dared to fight.
Gao Jiu was also convinced of this, but the supplementary regiment was a new force after all. This time he fought against the Japanese army. If he fought against the Japanese army, they would still be no match for him. Gao Jiu was worried that the Japanese army would counterattack again, so he immediately took the troops to evacuate the battlefield.
At about 10 o'clock, Gao Jiu and others led their troops to a village called Xiaoguanzhuang, where they rested and recuperated.
In a room, two oil lamps were lit.
Gao Jiu, Guan Lie, Qin Feng, Zhao Guosheng, Han Changgeng and Wang Guimin were surrounding a map and discussing the next arrangement.
Gao Jiu said: "For the Xinfenghe Bridge, the Japanese army must have strengthened their defenses. It is impossible to directly attack the defenders of the Xinfenghe Bridge to seize the bridge. In order to delay the Japanese reinforcements as much as possible and cooperate with the Ninth War Zone's plan to annihilate the enemy in Nanchang, the next thing we have to do is to destroy the Nanxun Railway.
Tonight, the Supplementary Regiment, the 58th Division Guard Battalion, the 62nd Division Machine Gun Platoon, and the Engineer Platoon were all involved in the raid on the Nanxun Railway. After completing the mission, they went to Gaozhuang Town to hide.
In this operation, Qin Feng was commanded by the troops. In the following time, Qin Feng was responsible for the entire troops. Although everyone came from different troops, I believe that everyone has experienced the battle between blood and fire together and can unite and welcome the next cruel battle.
What do you all have any opinions?”
Guan Lie first made a statement and said, "Master Jiu, don't worry, our supplementary regiment will definitely obey Section Chief Qin's command."
Wang Guimin and Han Changgeng also expressed their obedience to Qin Feng's command.
Qin Feng asked curiously: "Jiu Master, I will definitely execute your order. But, if you leave us here, what are you going to do?"
Gao Jiu said: "The most critical thing in the Nanchang Battle is the Xinfeng River Bridge. I want to blow up this bridge."
Guan Lie and others were all very surprised. So many of their troops dared not attack the Xinfeng River Bridge. How could Gao Jiu and his wife complete this task?
Guan Lie was full of doubts. He wanted to say something, but when he saw that Qin Feng and Zhao Guosheng seemed not surprised, he also held back and said nothing.
Gao Jiu said to Qin Feng: "Ning Wen, Ning Wu, Jia Liu and Li Xiaoshan of the Taohuashan Special Forces, they will follow you in action. However, they have the right to fight independently and do not need to interfere in their actions."
Qin Feng agreed, and he couldn't help but say, "Master Jiu, these brothers under your command are all very powerful, why don't you take them with you?"
Gao Jiu smiled faintly and said, "Let them be left to you. They will play a big role at the critical moment."
After saying that, Gao Jiu said goodbye and left, and everyone followed him out to see him off.
When he arrived in the yard, he saw Ning Wen, Ning Wu, Jia Liu and Li Xiaoshan and others there. Gao Jiu said, "You four are here, Ning Wen is responsible for the command and cooperate with Section Chief Qin's actions."
Jia Liu, Ning Wu and others all wanted to go with Gao Jiu, but they knew that with their skills, they might cause trouble for Gao Jiu. They did not argue and said together: "Take care of yourselves."
Gao Jiu nodded, left the yard and got on his horse and left.
Seeing Gao Jiu's back disappear, Guan Lie finally couldn't help asking: "Xinfeng River Bridge is so strong, and there are so many Japanese troops guarding it. Can Jiu Ye blow up the Xinfeng River Bridge alone?"
Although Han Changgeng, Wang Guimin and others didn't say it, they actually had the same questions as Guan Lie.
Jia Liu couldn't help others questioning Gao Jiu. He immediately rolled his eyes and said, "What do you know? What can't you do with Jiu Master?"
Ning Wen, Ning Wu, and Li Xiaoshan said at the same time: "We believe in Master Jiu."
Zhao Guosheng had long admired Gao Jiu. Although he didn't know how Gao Jiu could do this, he also said, "I believe in Jiu Master."
Qin Feng was relatively steady, but he nodded and said, "Jiu Master promised a thousand gold medals, and he never broke his promise."
Speaking of this, Qin Feng said: "Now I order each department to prepare, and at 23:30, everyone will set off on time!"
"Yes." Guan Lie, Han Changgeng, Wang Guimin and others answered together.
