The Japanese tentatively attacked twice in one afternoon and failed to win the city gate both times.
But even so, only 32 people were still alive on the city. Yu Zhigan killed about 50 Japanese soldiers in one afternoon. Compared with the soldiers of the national army, Yu Zhigan’s marksmanship was better and more than twice as good. Mirror advantage can start to kill the enemy two hundred meters away.
"Change defense!"
When the sky started to turn late, the people of the second battalion and the third battalion changed their defenses. Yu Zhiqian and others were also relieved. There were less than one hundred defenders at the east gate. If the Japanese attacked at night, could they hold on? No one said no. quasi.
"Sir, where are you going?"
** In the second wave of attack, his arm was injured. After changing defense, he looked at Yu Zhiqian curiously.
Yu Zhigan thought for a while: "I'll go to the headquarters for a tour!"
This mission gives Yu Zhigan a high degree of freedom. It does not belong to a certain unit. There is no order to stick to it. Yu Zhigan can go wherever he wants. Without the core mission, Yu Zhigan doesn't know where to go for a while.
"Headquarters! In the middle of the city, did you find the sir? Can't find me to take you there!"
"it is good!"
**Now I admire Yu Zhigan very much. He has made a rough calculation. Yu Zhigan has killed at least 40 Japanese devils. This number is almost impossible to think of before. Even now, it is not something ordinary people can do. **When The soldiers have seen such a person for the first time in these years.
Changde City has now completed most of the retreat. In the city, there are no ordinary people in sight. Occasionally I see some people who have not had time to retreat. They are all in a hurry. Most of them have joined the logistics team voluntarily. Deliver food to frontline soldiers and transport the wounded.
"Sir, why didn't you retreat!"
**Receiving the compressed biscuits handed by Yu Zhiqian, took a light bite, and looked at Yu Zhiqian curiously.
"Why retreat?"
"When retreating a few days ago, many reporters had already left the war zone. Are you not a reporter?"
"No, I am a fighter just like you!"
"Sir, what kind of biscuit are you? It doesn't feel any smell!"
"Eat less, you will be full with just a little bit of this thing, you can try it with some water!"
"it is good!"
The two people walked for about half an hour and finally rushed to a building in the center of the city. Two sentries stood at the door. After seeing Yu Zhiqian, they immediately stopped them. After they took out their credentials, the sentry let them go.
"General, the Japanese may not be targeting us. They just want to attract the surrounding friendly forces to reinforce us, and then take the opportunity to cross the Yuanjiang River and enter the Xiang-E region. Now it's just a feint!"
As soon as I entered the headquarters, I heard fierce arguments coming from it.
"General, I do not approve of General Liu’s idea. The enemy’s goal is obviously us. After taking Changde, the entire Yuanjiang River Basin is under the control of the Japanese. They can attack and retreat. Now they are just testing us. Once we are not paying attention, we will be seized by the Japanese!"
After entering the headquarters, most of the officers Yu Zhiqian saw were taller than himself, and majors and others were everywhere.
There is a huge map in the middle of the headquarters, and a few ashtrays next to it. In the large room, there is a smell of smoke. The ceiling is high and there is a very simple chandelier on the top.
There are several radio stations on both sides, and several communicators are constantly sending and receiving telegrams. From time to time, telephones ring, and communicators and messengers are constantly shuttled in the room.
On the front wall is a photo of Jiang Zhongzheng’s military uniform. Two blue sky and white flags are crossed on both sides. Below is another huge map with a lot of circles and crosses on it, and the lieutenant general of the 57th Division Yu Cheng General Wan, sitting at his desk.
It was the first time that Yu Zhiqian saw Yu Chengwan. Compared with the photos seen in later generations, General Yu Chengwan now looks a bit younger. He is from Taizhou, Guangdong. He looks a little thin on the outside. Although the staff members are discussing fiercely, But staring at the map and thinking carefully.
I had to admire the uniforms of the Kuomintang army, a well-fitting lieutenant general's uniform, which made his figure look more upright, thick black sword eyebrows, bright eyes constantly thinking, and he also had a domineering domineering attitude.
Holding the Zhongzheng Sword in his hand, this is the symbol of his Huangpu graduates. After the two staff members quarreled for a long time, they turned their heads abruptly, looked at the map behind them, and pointed with their hands: "Hengshan Yong's goal should not be Changde, now It may be just a feint, but if our defense is lax, they may also attack us directly."
"The general is..."
"The headquarters should not be wrong. This is the result of the analysis of the headquarters. We will execute the order when we call the headquarters." When Yu Chengwan said this, he was a little uncertain.
"General, but..."
The staff officer who was originally planning to argue about something, after hearing what Yu Chengwan said, he saluted, then turned to salute, shook his head, and began to prepare to send a report to the headquarters. When he turned his head, he saw Yu Zhiqian standing aside. For a moment, he walked over: "Hello, you are Captain Yu of the intelligence department!"
Yu Zhigan nodded, a little wondering why this staff officer knew him. The staff officer took Yu Zhiqian to Yu Chengwan's side: "General, the captain Yu of the intelligence department that you told you this morning is here!"
After Yu Chengwan saw Yu Zhiqian, his eyes lit up, then turned to look at Yu Zhiqian, and then frowned: "Didn't it mean that it will be there at noon? Why is it so late!"
Before Yu Zhiqian spoke, the police next to him saluted a military salute: "Reporter Commander, Officer Yu, helped us resist the Japanese attack at the East Gate and killed at least forty Japanese officers!"
"you are?"
"Report to the general, I am the deputy company commander of the first company of the third battalion of the 172 regiment**!"
"What you said is true!"
"Yes, General, our brothers upstairs can prove it!"
Hearing these words, Yu Chengwan's expression recovered a little. Yu Zhigan secretly noted that Yu Chengwan likes punctual people. After the misunderstanding was resolved, Yu Zhigan pointed to the map: "Captain Yu, your intelligence department, for What useful information does the Japanese have about this attack?"
Yu Zhigan was stunned for a moment, but he quickly understood what his identity was. It was equivalent to a staff officer outside the establishment. The identity of the intelligence department gave Yu Zhigan a certain degree of freedom and access to Yu Chengwan.
"General, our intelligence department analyzed and judged that the Japanese's target this time is Changde. Their plan to attack Yuxianggui is just a cover!"
"Then why didn't the headquarters give us an order?"
"General, I don't know how the people at the headquarters are, but you will understand if you look at the map!"
"You tell me about it!"
After Yu Chengwan finished speaking, he handed the baton to Yu Zhigan. After Yu Zhigan took it, he found Changde on the map, circled around, and moved to Changsha and Chongqing.
Yu Chengwan saw that after Chongqing, he was taken aback, frowned, shook his head slowly, and then looked at Changsha again. All the fog before was blown away, and he immediately sorted out his thoughts, knowing these small groups What the devil is going to do.
I was just a fan of the authorities before, and I didn't see the influence of Changde on the overall situation. (End of this chapter)
