Anti-Japanese War: I am Li Yunlong. Hobby nuclear leveling

The morning sun breaks through the shackles of darkness, and the afterglow shines on the earth.

The battle that lasted all night came to an end at dawn. Soldiers from both sides who fought hard all night sat in the blood, wrapped in the smoke and the smell of blood in the air, next to corpses and broken limbs. , eating their own breakfast.

A night of fierce fighting consumed a lot of physical energy from the soldiers on both sides. The soldiers, whose faces and hands were covered with gunpowder smoke and blood, were biting and chewing a nearly kilogram piece of braised pork, and the grease slid down the corners of their mouths. , paired with a box of hot noodle soup and a bowl of hot soju to dispel the biting chill in the morning.

In the forward command post, when Liu Wenqing and Jin Kuibi came back from counting the casualties last night, Ye Qing also drafted a telegram about the attack on Jinshan Guard and the battle that took place on the Songjiang battlefield last night and sent it to the Ministry of National Defense.

The three of them sat down and started eating their own breakfast, which was the same as all the soldiers, a bowl of soju, a box of noodles, and a portion of braised pork.

For every soldier of the 67th Army, this was an extremely luxurious breakfast, but for Ye Qing, it was just a trivial thought.

Although there is a prohibition on alcohol in the military, no one would say this at this time.

A bowl of wine dispelled the chill and made the soldiers forget a little of their pain.

Of course, the amount of wine is strictly controlled. It is said to be a bowl, but in fact it is only about one tael. For these Northeastern men of the 67th Army, it can barely be called a throat moisturizer.

After a tael of wine, Jin Kuibi clicked his lips and started eating noodles.

Liu Wenqing seemed to be polite and polite, and he was not slow to eat. He ate a pound of braised pork in a few mouthfuls, followed by a ounce of wine, and a box of noodles in a few gulps.

Ye Qing, who was on the table, was not slow at all. After swallowing his breakfast like a breeze sweeping away fallen leaves, he asked:"How many soldiers are there who can fight now?"

"Adding up the two divisions and the army's direct guard troops, plus the reserve force of 1,000 people, there are about 6,500 people."Liu Wenqing said.

In last night's battle, although there was the firepower of the Hell's Angels in the sky to assist, the little devils launched waves of attacks desperately, and the 67th Army suffered a lot of casualties. After a night of fighting, , more than 3,000 people were killed. In fact, if we do not count the troops directly under the army, we only count the 108th and 107th Infantry Divisions. The remaining combat personnel may not even add up to 4,000.

From the time when we held Songjiang to Now, the Sixty-seventh Army has suffered more than 10,000 casualties.

The two infantry divisions of the Sixty-seventh Army, plus the troops directly under the army, have a total strength of more than 23,000

"In the battle last night, all the seriously injured soldiers refused to leave their positions and refused medical treatment."Jin Kuibi said

"Why?"Ye Qing asked with some confusion.

"Because they don't want to hurt others when they retreat."Jin Kuibi explained with red eyes.

"When I went to the field hospital in the morning to check on the wounded, they asked that weapons and explosive charges be left with them to be delivered to their positions before the troops retreated. Liu Wenqing said solemnly

"I disagree."Ye Qing raised his head seriously.

"If I was injured, I would ask myself to stay."Kim Kyu-pil expressed his opinion

"Although I am very reluctant, this is the only retreat option at the moment. If we take the wounded with us, we will not be able to outrun the Japs in pursuit, and more people will die by then. Liu Wenqing said helplessly.

"This is not a reason to abandon your comrades. Tell the injured soldiers that I will take them back to the rear and let them receive treatment. Many of them will be able to return to the battlefield after recovering from their injuries, and they cannot be sacrificed again."Ye Qing shook his head firmly.

"General Ye, from an emotional point of view, none of us are willing to abandon our comrades, but from an intellectual point of view, this is the best choice. When faced with a choice, it is nothing more than the size. If you sacrifice a small number of people , I will not object to more people being able to survive."Liu Wenqing said seriously.

It's the lesser of two evils, but when the time comes, it's often the most difficult time to make a decision.

Hearing this, Ye Qing didn't say anything else. Jin Kuibi saw that the atmosphere was a little depressed and said :"There is still daylight, so it is too early to retreat. No one knows whether the little Japs will attack like crazy next. Ye

Qing heard this and said:"There is no need to think about anything. The kid from the east is attacking Suzhou. The kid here doesn't have much time to spend with us. I'm afraid they won't stop their attack throughout the day."."

In the battle last night, no one had any rest. Ye Qing, who had already listened to the Japs' messages, knew very well that breakfast was only a short break and the Japs would soon launch another attack.

When they retreated in the evening, Sixty The Seventh Army must be depleted of men and horses, but now the Sixty-seventh Army is not like the little devils. It has enough troops to take turns, so it can only continue to fight.

Because the retreat tonight is critical, the method of giving up the wounded soldiers will be used to allow the troops to retreat. , if you can successfully stop the little devil, it's okay, but if you can't, the sacrifice of those wounded people will be in vain.

So emotionally and psychologically, Ye Qing cannot accept such a thing.

However, although the Sixty-seventh Army lost Wu Keren, but it was not Ye Qing who could make the decision. His words could only be opinions, not decisions. After all, Liu Wenqing and Jin Kuibi were both major generals like him.

Just when the atmosphere calmed down, a communications staff officer came over and said A message was handed to Ye Qing and said:"Report to General Ye, this is the message from the Ministry of National Defense to you."

Ye Qing frowned slightly, took the telegram and looked at it with a strange expression on his face. He then handed the telegram to Liu Wenqing and Jin Kuibi.

When they saw the content of the telegram, they looked surprised. After looking at each other, they stood up and paid respect to Ye Qing. A military salute:"Hello, sir."
