Chapter 643: The damage ratio is 15
Takahashi Daisho hurriedly squatted down and pinched Doihara Ken'er's philtrum.
He pinched randomly but to no avail, and it was difficult for Ken'er Doihara to wake up.
Takahashi Taisho was eager for his death and said happily: "Ji Qiu! The head of the agency is dead. Report it to the commander of the 11th Army, Okamura, the division commander Abe, and the headquarters. Tell the Chinese Supreme Command as well and let them be happy too."
Yamashita Yoshiaki nodded and said, "Okay! But you have to report that he bravely killed the enemy and died on the battlefield."
Takahashi Taisho laughed and said, "You should also say that we killed hundreds of people from the 34th Army to rescue him from the dead."
Yamashita Yoshiaki said happily: "Yoshi! I will send a message to many parties to let the world know about our bravery."
After saying this, he sent out obituaries to the Japanese 11th Army Headquarters, the Osaka Division Headquarters, the Japanese Headquarters, the Chinese Supreme Command, Okayama Prefecture, and other places:
"The flower of the Empire's spy war, Lieutenant General Kenji Doihara, commander of the Doihara Brigade of the Osaka Division, fought bloody battles with the 34th Army of China in the Xiangbei battlefield, but unfortunately died heroically on the battlefield.
Yamashita Yoshiaki and Takahashi Taisho killed hundreds of elite soldiers of the Chinese 34th Army before they rescued it from the dead. I hope the world will know this. Aide-de-camp Yamashita Yoshiaki! "
Takahashi Taisho paid close attention to the obituary and nodded, saying, "Yoshi! This obituary is very well written, but you should put me before you and add one more sentence: Takahashi Taisho and Yamashita Yoshiaki are the only ones left in this brigade, firmly controlling the military flag. Oh, and the aide-de-camp should also be changed to me."
"Fine!"
Yamashita Yoshiaki reluctantly agreed to his request and sent another telegram.
The two men lifted up Kenji Doihara and prepared to throw him into his favorite Youshui.
"Cough! Cough!"
Doihara Kan'er coughed several times and came back to life.
Takahashi Taisho and Yamashita Yoshiaki immediately put him down, both of them were stunned, not knowing how to explain to him.
Doihara Kenji stood up with a somersault and ran into the cabin shouting:
"Fat Tiger! Hurry up and start the boat. Let's get away from this damn place and go to Wuhan."
On the surface of the Yuan River, a large ship was sailing upstream.
Xiang Chu, Kong Ling and Yu Xiaowan left on the same boat they came on that night.
Yu Xiaowan handed the battle report to Xiang Chu and said sadly:
"Brother Chu! In this battle, we wiped out nearly 1 people from the Doihara Brigade, and suffered more than a thousand casualties, most of whom died in Zhouwei Village, Zhangjiazhang, and Youshui River.
In addition, each division has only about half of its ammunition left, and a lot of weapons have been lost, so we can only use the weapons and ammunition captured from the Japanese to replenish them."
Xiang Chu took the battle report, stared at it for a long time, nodded and said: "Thanks to the brothers who sacrificed their lives, we have achieved such a great result."
Kong Ling took the battle report from him and asked, "Wu Wan's father! Can I report the battle situation to the Supreme Command?"
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Report now! Rest immediately after reporting, it will be dawn soon."
Kong Ling smiled and said, "Just sleep during the day. How many people get a normal night's sleep during a war? The old men in the Supreme Command are afraid of the Japanese planes bombing during the day, so they often hold combat meetings at night. Sister Xi has been waiting for our battle situation. I'll send it to her and ask her to report it."
After saying that, she sat in front of the radio and sent the long battle report to Song Xi.
Chongqing, combat research conference room.
Just as Kong Ling said, a high-level combat meeting was being held at this time.
Minister He sighed and said, "Everyone! The Japanese 11th Army is unstoppable in the battlefields of Henan, Jiangxi, Hubei and Hunan. We have not yet won a decent victory to give an account to the international community and the Chinese people. Sir, you are ashamed and order us to do our best to achieve at least a small victory."
Minister Chen said anxiously, "Don't worry! The 34th Army has arrived at the Xiangbei front and has shot down 10 enemy transport planes. They have been fighting since yesterday."
Chen Guo taunted, "I'm afraid it's good for fighting the Japanese air force, but not for fighting ground forces."
Xu Zeng echoed, "The 34th Army is neither a central army nor a local army. It is a unit composed of new recruits and special agents from Yunnan, Guizhou and Hunan. It certainly has no combat effectiveness. It is understandable that it failed. Just don't let it be beaten too badly."
Everyone was silent. It was already this late, if they had won the battle they would definitely have reported it.
Commander Li sighed and said, "That's true, but it's a pity that the new weapons and equipment that Chu Xi and the young ladies worked so hard to purchase may have fallen into the hands of the enemy. Alas!"
Liu Chi smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that the 34th Army will be cancelled again."
At this time, Song Xi, with a radiant face, walked into the meeting room holding a telegram folder.
She handed the telegram folder to Minister He and said happily: "Commanders! The 34th Army annihilated 1 people of the Doihara Brigade in one night at the cost of sacrificing more than a thousand people."
"what?!"
The officers were slapped in the face and were stunned.
Minister He excitedly took the telegram folder, opened it and read it, praising: "Not simple! It's really not simple. Chu Xi annihilated three regiments and a reinforced battalion of the Japanese. It was all a battle fought by gods."
Commander Bai quickly took the telegram folder, took a closer look, and nodded, "Attacking with an absolute advantage in force, dividing and encircling, is indeed powerful."
The telegram was passed around among the superiors, and they all praised it highly.
Minister Chen couldn't help but laugh and said, "Secretary Song! Why don't you say it was a complete annihilation?"
Song Xi smiled bitterly and said, "The Japanese brigade commander, Doihara Xian'er, fled early and didn't even get the flag."
Chen Guo agreed, "Yes! Secretary Song is right. Just like the 106th Division, the commander of the division fled with the military flag, so it cannot be considered a complete annihilation. The division number must be retained."
Liu Chi laughed and said, "The devils have mobilized their best soldiers and reorganized the 106th Division. Now it has become an ace army, wreaking havoc in the Xiangbei battlefield and is about to reach Miluo."
At this time, a colonel intelligence officer ran into the conference room and handed the telegram folder to Minister He.
Minister He opened the folder and looked at it, saying with a mixture of laughter and tears:
"Everyone! It's ridiculous that Takahashi Taisho, the aide of Doihara Kan'ei, actually sent the obituary of Doihara Kan'ei's heroic death in battle via a plain text telegram, and also sent us a copy."
"died?!"
The officers were stunned.
Minister He handed the telegram folder to Song Xi and said with a smile: "Secretary Song! You see, Chu Xi's 34th Army did not completely wipe out the Doihara Brigade."
"real!"
Song Xi took the telegram folder, opened it and smiled brightly.
Minister He said with a sense of relief: "This great victory of the 34th Army is enough for us to report to the higher authorities."
After saying this, he handed Song Xi's telegram folder to the colonel intelligence officer and ordered, "Report it immediately!"
"Yes!"
The colonel intelligence officer took it over quickly.
Minister He asked with a smile: "Secretary Song! Where is the 34th Army now?"
Song Xi smiled and said, "Chu Xi said that the Japanese 11th Army will retaliate crazily and send the Sendai, Kagoshima Division and Anami Geometry Brigade to encircle them. He has led the 34th Army to retreat along the Yuan River overnight."
Chen Guo shouted, "We are fighting well, why are we retreating?"
Some people were jealous and started to make sarcastic remarks:
"The 34th Army has withdrawn. What will happen to the people of Xiangbei?"
"After fighting all night, you're running away without even asking for permission."
"Such an army would be opportunistic in winning battles."
Song Xi couldn't help but retort: "This is called being as quiet as a virgin, moving as fast as thunder, and avoiding the enemy's sharp edge. If you have the ability, go to the front line and wipe out a Japanese brigade."
Those who made sarcastic remarks were suddenly speechless. To completely wipe out an entire Japanese brigade is harder than climbing to the sky.
Minister He smiled and said, "Secretary Song! Don't be angry. Tell Mr. Chu that the 34th Army can retreat appropriately, but the war in Xiangbei is intense at the moment, and his 34th Army is still needed to stop the enemy's offensive."
What could Song Xi say in front of a group of leaders in a conference room? He could only nod helplessly and said, "Okay! I'll talk to him."
Deputy Minister Xie pointed to the map and suggested: "Minister Zeng has led the 1st Army to Changsha. In particular, his elite 1st Mixed Division has 4 troops and has arrived in northern Hunan. It can also stop the enemy's offensive."
Minister Chen couldn't help but shake his head and said, "That Lin Qiao'er who relies on the Red Party's tactic of 'beating the local tyrants and dividing the land', can the soldiers she captured be effective?"
Minister He smiled bitterly and said, "She still claims to be the 34th Army. She has ruined the reputation of the 34th Army. We should quickly issue a general order to commend the 34th Army and restore its reputation."
Commander Li said with emotion: "A casualty ratio of 1 to 15! They really deserve praise. Our army is not incapable of fighting."
