    Donghai County, 133rd Division Headquarters.

    "Old senior, take a look. The main office has sent a telegram, asking us to transport the wounded back from the 48th Army!"

    Sun Xinpu handed the message in his hand to Liao Yaoxiang and said with a bitter smile.

    "Transporting back the wounded of the 48th Army? I'm afraid Zhang Yichun won't agree!"

    Liao Yaoxiang shook his head. Everyone knew that the wounded became elite soldiers after they recovered, and no one was willing to let the wounded out.

    Of course, that kind of miscellaneous troops do not count, because they rely on numbers to fight.

    But the Forty-Eighth Army is one of the elite units of the Guangxi faction. These generals have all attended military schools or martial arts lecture halls, and they all understand the significance of the recovery of wounded soldiers.

    "Yes! After this battle, the Forty-Eighth Army had less than 5,000 troops left, and almost everyone was leading"

    While Sun Xinpu was speaking, he suddenly thought of a situation and immediately grabbed the message and continued to read it.

    A few seconds later, Sun Xinpu said with a wry smile: "Old senior, it seems that the two of us have to go to the 48th Army headquarters!"

    "Why are we going to the headquarters of the 48th Army? We can't let the two of us go there and beg Zhang Yichun to give us the wounded soldiers?"

    Liao Yaoxiang said with a smile.

    "Hey! Old senior, I'm afraid things are not like this, Luo! The commander-in-chief wants to annex the 48th Army."

    "Merge the Forty-eighth Army? If we annex privately, I'm afraid the summit will blame us! After all, there is no order from the Ministry of Military Affairs!"

    Liao Yaoxiang said with a frown.

    "Old senior, you are really wrong about this. Not only will Shangfeng not blame you, but he will legitimately give this organization to our 88th Army. Don't forget, the 48th Army is an army of the Guangxi faction!"

    After Sun Xinpu finished speaking, Liao Yaoxiang looked stunned, and then couldn't help but smile bitterly.  Their boss really knows how to seize opportunities.

    In this case, Shangfeng would indeed approve of swallowing up the troops of the Gui family, and would also give them an organization.  After all, they were not annexed by other Central Army units.

    If Shangfeng annexes the Central Army, Shangfeng will indeed blame it, but it¡¯s the Gui clique!

    That¡¯s another story.

    "Then let's go! See if we can pull this Yichun over."

    ??¡­

    In Donghai County, the 48th Army Headquarters

    "Military seat, all our casualty data have been calculated! Twenty-eight thousand three hundred and fifty-two of our troops were killed in battle, and there are still 4,825 of our troops. But most of them are injured, no.  There are less than 1,500 people injured!"

    A staff officer was reporting casualty data to Zhang Yichun.

    In this battle, the Forty-Eighth Army suffered almost all casualties.  An infantry army of more than 30,000 people, less than 20 days ago, now has less than 5,000 people left, and most of them are injured.

    "Sending a report to the Fifth Theater Commander's Headquarters, the 48th Army requests to withdraw to the rear for repairs, and also requests priority to replenish troops and equipment!"

    Although Zhang Yichun felt that it was impossible for his Forty-Eighth Army to obtain soldiers and equipment in a short period of time. After all, the Battle of Xuzhou had completely begun, and there were no reserve troops to supplement. Now was the most brutal time to fight the North China Expeditionary Army, but he  Still have to send this telegram!

    "yes!"

    Zhang Yichun stood up slowly and looked at the map hanging on the wall. No one knew what he was thinking.

    "Report! Sun Xinpu, commander of the 133rd Division of the 88th Group Army, and Liao Yaoxiang, deputy commander, want to see you!"

    Zhang Yichun heard the guard's voice, turned around and looked at the guard at the door and said, "Are they here? Let them wait for me in the living room. Remember, serve good tea!"

    "Haha! Commander Sun, Commander Liao, thank you for your support in this East China Sea battle! If it weren't for your support, our 48th Army would have been eaten!"

    Zhang Yichun burst into laughter as soon as he walked in.

    "Commander Zhang! Our two uninvited guests didn't delay your business, did they?"

    Sun Xinpu looked at Zhang Yichun who walked in and asked with a smile.

    "Where! It's such a trivial matter, not worth mentioning!"

    Zhang Yichun and the other three sat down with smiles.

    "Commander Zhang, the two of us are here to inform you that we will be returning to Huainan tomorrow afternoon, so we are here to say goodbye!"

    Sun Xinpu changed the subject and said that he would leave tomorrow afternoon.

    And Zhang Yichun was really surprised.

      ¡°You¡¯re leaving tomorrow? Don¡¯t you want the soldiers to recover from their injuries?¡±

    "Yes! Yes! We will leave tomorrow afternoon. This is the order from our commander-in-chief. As for the soldiers, let them go back in armored vehicles. When it comes to recovering from injuries, it is better for us to recover from injuries at the field general hospital in Huainan. We will follow the division headquarters  It¡¯s a field hospital, but the conditions are still too bad!¡±

    "Why don't you leave a few days later? There is a hospital in Donghai County, and the conditions are not bad. How about you arrange for the wounded to rest here? This time, it was all the help of the 88th Army, and our 48th Army was able to get out of trouble. If not  Thank you both very much, I¡¯m afraid Zhang will feel uneasy!¡±

    Zhang Yichun looked at Sun Xinpu and Liao Yaoxiang very seriously and said.

    In history, Zhang Yichun is known as Xiao Zhang Fei. This man fought bravely and can be said to be another warrior.

    And he is also very righteous. Due to the influence of Confucian culture, he takes loyalty very seriously.

    In the early stages of his life, he was in a state of wandering. Those people might use him, but they would not reuse him.

    It wasn¡¯t until Li Delin from the Guangxi clan invited him to come to work on the fortifications that he felt that he had met a good person.

    Since then, due to the kindness of knowing him, he has been serving as a military officer in the Guangxi army.

    ????????????????

    Sun Xinpu and Liao Yaoxiang looked at each other, and then Sun Xinpu showed a helpless smile and said: "Commander Zhang, let me tell you the truth! We really can't stay here any longer. Now the headquarters is preparing to launch a cross-river campaign. We urgently need military support.  , our 133rd Division is the main division of the 88th Group Army. Moreover, the commander-in-chief and I were brothers in life and death before, and his father is also my father. Now that the commander-in-chief¡¯s father has been caught by the little devil, how can I not  Participate in this battle?¡±

    "this"

    Zhang Yichun saw that Sun Xinpu said this, and felt that if he kept others, he would not let others fulfill their filial piety.

    "Commander Zhang, besides saying goodbye today, we have one more thing to ask for!"

    Liao Yaoxiang saw the embarrassment on Zhang Yichun's face and continued without caring at all.

    "What's the matter?"

    "Borrow troops! Commander Zhang knows that our Eighty-Eighth Group Army is preparing to launch a cross-river campaign and currently does not have enough troops, so we hope to borrow the troops from Commander Zhang!"

    "Borrowing troops?"

    A flash of astonishment flashed across Zhang Yichun's face, and then a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes. He looked at the two of them thoughtfully and said, "How much do you want to borrow?"

    "We can borrow as much as we have. We will borrow from everyone in the 48th Army, including"

    "Deputy Commander Liao, don't talk about this anymore. I am valued by Commander Li of the Fifth War Zone, and now I am able to command the 48th Army. Now that Commander Li has not repaid his kindness, how can Zhang switch to another place?"   (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
