Beiping, North China Front Army Headquarters.
Impossible!
He didn't believe it!
Are you kidding me?
When Terauchi Hisashi heard the news of the 5th division being destroyed, he almost crushed his phone. His first reaction was that it was impossible. Over 40,000 people were wiped out in one afternoon?
Even if there were 40,000 pigs running in the mountains, it would still take a lot of effort to kill them. It was too ridiculous.
" Commander, it's possible," Yamashita explained." The 5th Division had maintained radio silence yesterday afternoon. It's obvious that the radio station has been damaged."”
"The defeated soldiers wouldn't lie. A regiment of Empire's warriors defeated an entire division of the China Army. If they didn't encounter a terrifying enemy, how could they escape?”
Terauchi Shouichi looked at the map of Jin Province with a gloomy expression. After thinking about it, he decided not to report the specific situation to the headquarters. If the headquarters knew about it now, he would definitely be held accountable.
If he reported it after destroying the 8th Munitions Factory, the 5th Division would be considered a casualty and not a mistake in command.
"Send my order to Tada Shun. If he can't eliminate Li Yun Long, he will be sent to the military court with me.”
"In addition, order the temporary aviation regiment at Taiyuan Airport to ensure continuous bombing no matter what. If necessary, use special bombs.”
"Hey!"
……
Xia Jiawan, Eighth Route Army Headquarters.
The president was even more shocked than Shouichi Terauchi. He looked at the telegram and then at his teacher. After a long time, he asked in disbelief.
"Did the 5th division really die at Crouching Bull Mountain?”
"Yes, not only the 5th division, but also a puppet regiment. A total of 43,000 enemies died under the artillery fire of the new regiment.”
The division commander sighed after receiving the news. For the first time, he felt that Zhou Yun was not only a military expert, but also a commander.
He wasn't moved by the Japanese using underhanded tactics to break the mine field. This was the big picture!
It was a tactic for the Japanese to bombard without retaliating. In the end, they took advantage of the time to launch the bombardment and destroyed Ando Rikichi effortlessly.
Amazing!
However, there were also people who felt that he had committed a heinous crime, such as the political commissar.
Bang ~
He slammed his palm on the table and scolded angrily,""Who gave him the power? Who gave him the power of Zhou Yun?”
"He actually seized the command without permission and watched one to two thousand civilians die in front of him without going to rescue them. If he doesn't even have the courage to fight the enemy, is he even worthy of being a soldier?”
"The advantage of our army is that we have a solid foundation of the masses. We are born from the masses, so we naturally have to care for the masses.”
"This kind of cold-blooded and ruthless murderer who would do anything to achieve his goal is simply a black sheep. If we don't punish him, what will happen to the other troops when they encounter such a situation in the future?”
"We have to report to the headquarters and punish him!”
？
The president and the division commander looked at each other and felt a headache.
Many people on the battlefield knew how to choose, but no matter what choice they made, it would be wrong.
Saving people would cause more people to die!
Not saving people was not a violation of military rules, but in the Eighth Route Army, it was more serious than a violation of military rules. It was a human nature problem.
The hall was frighteningly quiet. Everyone was thinking about the problem in silence.
The commander felt that this was making things difficult for them. Were they going to sacrifice soldiers to save the people?
"Political commissar, we all know the situation at that time. If the New Regiment went to the minefield to save people, not only would they not be able to save the people, but they might also suffer heavy losses.”
"If the new regiment suffers heavy losses, the 100,000 civilians in the Munitions Factory and Wang Town will be lost. At that time, we will not only lose a few thousand people, but also 100,000 people.”
hehe ~
The political commissar, who had been poisoned by dogma, did not think so. He retorted,"Once this opening is made, the entire army's mindset will change. It will shake the morale of the army and the glorious image that we have worked so hard to establish for so many years.”
"If the arsenal is gone, we can rebuild it. If the new regiment is gone, we can continue to recruit soldiers and buy horses. Because the Eighth Route Army is to protect the people, there will be countless people who will join the army.”
This…was irrefutable!
The division commander was speechless. Indeed, he could not open this mouth. If the thinking of the army was changed, then the glorious image of the Eighth Route Army in the hearts of the people would no longer exist.
However, he still felt that the political commissar was making a mountain out of a molehill. Zhou Yun had not done anything wrong. He only wanted to protect the New Regiment, the Munitions Factory, and the 100,000 citizens of Wang Town.
Finally, the boss spoke. He closed his eyes and said in a deep voice,"Report to the headquarters and explain the specific situation.”
"Yes, sir!"
