The blood of the Anti-Japanese War stained the mountains and rivers

Although the great victory was inspiring, the generals all understood that the Wanjialing victory was only a partial victory, and launching a counterattack now is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

Although the Devil's 106th Division was killed, the troops on the entire southern battlefield also suffered heavy losses, and the consumption of supplies and ammunition was incalculable.

而在南线战场的鬼子第11军麾下还有比第106师团实力更强悍的第101师团，27师团，第9师团等诸多部队。

On the northern front, the heavy troops of the devils, land, sea, and air forces have already pressed down on the three towns of Wuhan. The Chinese officers and soldiers who have been fighting for several months are exhausted and unable to stop the devils from further offensive.

And in the sea near Guangdong in the south, the devils also gathered ships, preparing to attack the southern Chinese outlet while the main force of the Cantonese army was still in the Wanjialing area. The situation was still grim.

Therefore, the Military Commission was not dazzled by this great victory, but ordered the victorious troops to hurry up and clean up the battlefield, preparing to retreat to De'an to rest and defend.

The Chinese side is cheering, but the mood of Neji Okamura, the commander of the 11th Army who lost a division, can be imagined, and the entire headquarters is gloomy.

"Trash! Bastard!"

After Okamura Neiji got the disappearance of the 106th Division being wiped out, he was like an angry lion, throwing a cup and overturning a table, and the whole headquarters was full of his roar.

A division was wiped out. This is something they have never done since they entered the Chinese battlefield. Not only did they lose more than 1 soldiers, but they also severely damaged the morale of their troops and disrupted their plan to attack Wuhan.

The high-spirited Neiji Okamura is like a raging volcano at this moment. He can't wait to rush to Wanjialing and shoot Matsuura Junrokuro himself. He is a sinner of the empire!

"Report, Central China Commander's call..." Just as Okamura Ningji was very angry, the phone rang, and a devil's communication staff picked it up cautiously.

Hearing the call from Commander Dian Junliu of the Central China Front Army, Neiji Okamura had to take a deep breath to calm down his angry and bad mood.

"Ba Ga, Lu..."

Neiji Okamura just picked up the phone, and before he could speak, Commander Jun Tsukuro's roar came from the other side of the phone.

"Hi...hi!"

Facing the enraged Central China Front Army commander, Neiji Okamura, the commander of the 11th Army, could only keep nodding and bowing, silently enduring the scolding, who made himself unlucky.

However, although Dian Junliu was very angry, he did not want to remove Okamura Ningji's position as the commander of the 11th Army. After all, it was difficult to find someone to replace him for a while. In case of defeat.

Besides, Neiji Okamura had to clean up the mess he had made by himself, and he had to get this place back.

After Dian Junliu scolded fiercely, he finally let out a sigh of relief, and then stopped scolding Neiji Okamura.

"What are you going to do next?" Hata Junroku asked on the phone.

Okamura Neiji replied respectfully: "Since the 106th Division has been destroyed, in order to prevent the Chinese Army from taking advantage of the situation to counterattack, I am ready to order the troops to retreat to a safe place to rest..."

"Asshole! Who told you to withdraw!" Okamura Ningji hadn't finished speaking, the anger that Dian Junliu had just calmed down on the phone couldn't help gushing again.

"Hi! Everything is strictly obeying the Commander's orders!" Neiji Okamura had to change his words immediately after hearing the faint anger on the phone.

"According to the information, the Chinese Army is already exhausted. I need you to cheer up and let all the divisions attack and defeat them in order to save the face lost this time. You know?!"

"Hi Yi!" Okamura Neiji quickly understood the meaning of Dian Junliu, and a murderous look appeared on his face.

In fact, he also wanted to send troops up to get back his position, but he was really scared when the 106th Division was wiped out, so he prepared to be more cautious. After all, he dared not fail again. If he failed again, he, the 11th Army, would be afraid The commander has to go back to prison.

But now that Dian Junliu has given him the order to attack, he has no scruples anymore, and he has to cover up this failure with a bigger victory.

After hanging up the phone, Neiji Okamura's face was full of murderous intent: "Pass my order, and all divisions will attack De'an with all their strength! Defeat the Chinese army!"

Okamura Ningji was completely furious, and Dian Junliu gave him the opportunity to redeem his crimes, and he had to grasp it well.

The front-line divisions and regiments ordered by Okamura Ningji quickly rushed to De'an in a murderous manner, trying to save a little face.

"Mr. Xue, according to the information... the Devil's 27th Division, 101st Division, 9th Division, Suzuki Detachment, and Saeda Detachment have all pressed up."

The devils began to act murderously, and the devil's movements were quickly reported to General Xue Yue, the chief of the First Corps.

At this moment, General Xue Yue's face was still filled with the joy of victory. Looking at the news sent by the intelligence staff, a smile appeared on his face.

"It seems that the old devil Neji Okamura is not reconciled, haha." General Xue Yue joked, and there was a burst of chuckles in the officer's department.

"We knocked out one of his divisions. If we just die down like this, it's not in line with the usual arrogant character of Old Devil Okamura..." General Wu Yizhi, the chief of staff, also laughed.

"However, the devils are aggressive this time, and the next battle may not be easy." General Wu Yizhi's face was full of worry.

Officer Xue said with a smile: "Whoever said that I want to fight him, since the devil is coming to collect the corpse, let him come, and we will end up at a leisure."

"Mr. Xue, what do you mean?"

"The troops have been fighting for several months, and neither the materials nor the ammunition are enough to fight another big battle. Wuhan has already organized the people to retreat, and we are afraid that we will retreat too."

Having just fought a big victory, they are about to retreat, and they are actually reluctant.

But now that the devils on the northern battlefield are approaching Wuhan, even if they continue to pay some price on the southern front to stop the devils' crazy counterattack, it has no strategic significance. Hit hard.

Text Chapter 685 Iron-Blooded Army

The First Corps annihilated the Matsuura Division at Wanjialing, turning the entire battlefield into a cemetery.

Especially in Zhang Gushan, the area near Leiminggu Village was the most intense battle. The shells were constantly bombarded, and the two sides fought repeatedly, so that the corpses were piled up as high as the hill, and the soil was stained red with blood.

The rear was cheering and celebrating the great victory, but on the battlefield where corpses were strewn across the field, the brothers didn't care about rest, dragging their tired bodies and began to clean the battlefield and search for remnants of the enemy.

The battlefield was no longer the scene of heavy artillery fire a few days ago. After all, the main force of the devils had been wiped out, but sporadic gunshots still sounded from time to time.

Those ghost soldiers who fled in all directions fled around in the mountains. Although many were wiped out, there were still some who hid.

Each regiment organized quite a few search teams to continue the search, but there were not many remaining devils, most of them slipped through the net, so the main task was to clean up the battlefield.

Although it is already October, the temperature is still very high, because I have been fighting with the little devils in the mountains and have no time to clean up. The corpses left everywhere have been at least a week, and most of them have begun to rot, and the stench is suffocating.

In order to prevent the plague, the main task of each army is to bury the rotting corpses as soon as possible.

Yang Ling was shot in the arm while chasing Matsuura Junrokuro of the Devil Division. Although the division ordered him to be sent to the hospital to recover from his injuries, he still stayed on the battlefield and directed the cleanup Work on the battlefield.

Yang Ling, like his brothers, was so filthy that he had no place to wash, his arms were hung around his neck with bandages, and he was still on the battlefield.

Seeing the appearance of the officer Yang Ling, the brothers got a little closer to Yang Ling and admired him from the bottom of their hearts.

After all, being able to personally lead people to charge into the battle can easily make the brethren have a good impression, but if they are injured, it will make the brethren feel that such a chief is worth following.

"Find all our brothers, and we can't let them explode into the wilderness."

In the ravine, on the high ground covered with scorched earth, there were scattered corpses everywhere, many of which were cut into several pieces by the bomb, but Yang Ling still tried his best to let these sacrificed heroes be buried with his brothers.

The brothers did not forget the loot when gathering the corpses of the sacrificed brothers. There were countless guns and equipment left by the devils on the battlefield. Although most of them were broken, many were still usable.

"Kettles, towels, rifles, machine guns, bullet boxes...everything we can use..."

Yang Ling never refused to come to these things. Although there were no bullets, for the Chinese officers and soldiers who lacked everything, even if they didn't need other things, it would be good to take them back and pay back the money.
