Xinghe. Temporary headquarters of the former enemy of the Ninth Army.
In the beeping headquarters, Li Guoyao was looking through the battle reports from the front line, and standing beside him was the solemn-faced Chief of Staff Ma Desheng.
Seeing Li Guoyao put down the telegram in his hand, Ma Desheng said in a deep voice: "General, the casualties on the 177th Division are too great!"
"It's a bit big, but they should be able to bear it!" Li Guoyao said.
"Compared to the 177th Division as a whole, three thousand casualties is nothing, but for Lu Ding'an's brigade, it is really a serious injury. I am more worried about the next battle!"
"worry about what?"
"So far, Zhang Tengjiao has no intention of rotating the main attack force. In other words, in the next tough battle, Lu Ding'an's troops will still be the main combat force. If we continue to attack like this, we may not be able to reach Zhangjiakou, only Wanquan. Lu Ding'an's army collapsed." Ma Desheng said.
Li Guoyao was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Old Ma, although Lu Ding'an's troops suffered a lot of casualties, I don't believe it if they say they collapsed after they were beaten to safety!"
"General, there are three regiments under Lu Ding'an's command, and there are only more than 9,000 people including technical troops. One-third of the casualties have been suffered at the moment, which is almost reaching the limit of what one unit can bear. If the fight continues, at most In two days, the casualties of the army will reach 60% to 70%. Can such an army survive?" Ma Desheng said.
However, Li Guoyao smiled faintly and said confidently: "It can't collapse!"
Seeing the confidence on Li Guoyao's face, Ma Desheng was speechless and felt that all his words were in vain. Li Guoyao is good at everything, but sometimes he is overly confident, which makes people feel a little unreliable.
Li Guoyao knew what Ma Desheng was thinking. The two had been partners for such a long time, and they could tell at a glance what Ma Desheng was thinking.
"Old Ma, do you know why our troops of the Ninth Army have better combat effectiveness than the general national army, and are even better than the Japs?" Li Guoyao asked.
"Because our soldiers train harder, they almost lose half their lives on the training ground. If they sweat more in peacetime, they will naturally bleed less in wartime!"
"anything else?"
"Then there are weapons and equipment. Our equipment has been changed many times. Except for the ones that fly in the sky, they can't be compared with the little devils. We have the rest that the little devils have. We also have the ones that the little devils don't have! Soldiers With high quality and sophisticated weapons and equipment, the combat effectiveness of this unit will naturally be high!" Ma Desheng replied.
"Is there any more?"
"Yes, and there is the quality of officers. The officers of our ninth army are all young people. Although young people have various problems, such as being frivolous, unstable, easy to be impulsive, etc., young people also have their own advantages, that is, they dare to fight Dare to work hard and be aggressive, dare to do whatever comes to mind, and never look forward or backward.¡±
"Is there any more?"
"Yes, there are, such as the support of the people, relatively abundant military spending, etc., but I don't think these are the most important things!" Ma Desheng said.
However, I saw Li Guoyao shaking his head and saying: "Old Ma, although you have said a lot, you have not mentioned the key point. The most important reason why our troops have such strong combat effectiveness is not their weapons and equipment. , not because of how hard they train, but because they have power that other armies don¡¯t have!¡±
"What power?"
"Belief!"
"Belief?"
"Our army is different from any other army in the national army. Our army has been very clear about what it wants to do since its establishment. We have never fought for Chairman Chiang and the bureaucrats of all sizes in Chongqing. We have Every shot fired on the battlefield is for ourselves and for this country. This is our belief."
Then Li Guoyao continued: "Faith is a kind of spirit. It will make people with such a spirit have an iron will, a tough character, full enthusiasm and fearless dedication. When the country is in crisis, only those with firm faith can The military can become the mainstay of protecting our country because they dare to sacrifice and are willing to contribute."
"Every soldier in our Ninth Army, regardless of their origins, but when they get here they know why they are fighting. With faith in their hearts, their bodies will have motivation. That's why the soldiers train so hard. , you will be so brave on the battlefield. No matter how cruel the war is, as long as our army always adheres to its faith, then as long as they have one person, the army will not collapse."
Ma Desheng??Shocked by Li Guoyao's words, he felt that he seemed to have found the core secret of the Jiujiu Army.
He had been thinking before that this army was obviously inconspicuous. It was far inferior to the Central Army in terms of soldiers and officers, and even inferior to many local troops. But why were these bad soldiers and generals under the command of Li Guoyao? Can you reach the point where your troops are pointing at you, and be invincible?
Why do these people become squealing after a few words from Li Guoyao, as if the little devil opposite is made of mud?
He couldn¡¯t figure it out before. He always thought it had something to do with training, weapons and equipment, and the supplies of the troops.
But today he knew that it turned out that all this had little to do with external things, but with the heart of the soldier.
Ma Desheng understands what faith is, but he has never thought that this thing has such magic power!
"Since we have chosen a distant place, we only care about the hardships. Fighting back to our hometown is the spiritual support of every Northeast Army soldier, and expelling the Japanese invaders is the mission of every Chinese soldier. This is the meaning of the existence of our army. It is Like a lighthouse in the distance, it makes us no longer confused on the road to war and gives us the strength to continue fighting." Li Guoyao said.
"The boss is right, what should we do with Huai'an?"
"We'll wait and see what happens. I believe Zhang Tengjiao will come out fine. Besides, he still has two brigades that haven't been used. He must have his own ideas!" Li Guoyao said.
"What about us?"
"Have all the troops arrived in Xinghe?"
"Well, we're all here, ready to go at any time!" Ma Desheng said.
"Okay, now that the 35th Division of the little devil has arrived in Zhangjiakou, it's time to close the door and beat the dogs!"
Then Li Guoyao said in a deep voice: "Pass my order, the entire independent brigade army will assemble and rush to the front line of Nanhaoqian Town tonight. When Zhang Tengjiao's troops arrive at Wanquan tomorrow, the entire army will immediately go south and capture Xuanhua!"
"yes!"
