Chapter 116: Is This Possible?

Jin Jizhong nodded!

"It seems we still need to summarize our experience in the future."

"These little devils truly cannot be underestimated; we must be cautious."

At this moment, Yu Hua walked forward, "Everyone is here!"

Lao Luo grinned and said, "We are currently summarizing our experience."

"What kind of experience have you all gained?" Yu Hua wanted to see what Jin Jizhong and Lao Luo could come up with.

After all, this was their first time leaving Chuan to resist the war.

How could Huang Shaohong believe this?

"Good!"

The rest of the ammunition is still being tallied.

"Send this report of the Sichuan Army's victory to Commander Yan."

In any case, regarding this Ambush, the Sichuan Army had, generally speaking, won a victory at the very first attempt.

Li Jiayu, Liu Wenhui, Wang Zuanxu, Pan Wenhua, Wang Lingji, and others were also gathered together.

After Yan Laoxi finished reading the telegram from the Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army, his expression tightened, "This Sichuan Army brags without even drafting it."

Seeing Deng Xihou so happy, Sun Zhen grinned and said, "Since the Sichuan Army has won its first victory, let's also send a telegram to the 2nd War Zone and Liu Dashuai."

Of the little devils' 8 mortars, 6 can still be used.

"After every battle, if we summarize more, won't the experience come out?"

Seeing Sun Zhen say this, Deng Xihou waved his hand impatiently: "Report it... report it..."

The telegram of the 22nd Group Army's victory at the first attempt.

Everyone was happy and applauded upon hearing this news.

To annihilate one battalion of devils with such few casualties.

Seeing the Sichuan Army generals raise their doubts, Liu Dashuai did not get angry.

There are also over twenty Grenade Launchers that can still be used.

"Good!"

In Donghui Town.

"Marshal!"

Some commoners even spontaneously sent some food to the Sichuan Army.

Lao Luo looked at Yu Hua, "Company Commander Yu, it's fortunate that you coordinated the overall situation this time."

"Forward the telegram to Liu Dashuai for me, and let him see what kind of character his subordinates have."

Regardless of the authenticity of these battle results, the Sichuan Army has at least engaged the devils now.

One must know that Yu Hua is a lucky general, and Liu Dashuai thinks very highly of him.

"When trading blows with the devils, I will definitely study the devils carefully."

"However, compared to Principal's direct-line troops, the devils' combat effectiveness..."

Jin Jizhong patted his chest, "We suffered a loss this time."

Liu Dashuai's Adjutant showed the victory report of the Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army to Liu Pucheng.

Now there is time to catch a breath and, furthermore, to redeploy troops to set up a defensive line.

"Our Sichuan Army left Chuan to resist the war; I, Jin Jizhong, never thought about returning alive."

The main generals of the Sichuan Army are all looking for Liu Dashuai now.

The 127th Division under Deng Xihou was specifically formed into the Supply Troops for the entire Group Army.

"This old thing is clearly a landlord and a miser; he keeps crying poor, saying Jin Province has nothing to supply."

Seeing the telegram sent by the Sichuan Army, Huang Shaohong's brows furrowed slightly.

"Report it to him, can he even replenish our Sichuan Army's ammunition?"

Yu Hua grinned and said, "It's the first engagement, after all!"

"The devils are already at our doorstep, yet he still hoards the supplies in his hands; can they breed?"

At the same time, he dispatched a portion of his troops again to move closer to the Sichuan Army.

This time, an entire battalion of devils was annihilated, and a large amount of Weaponry was captured.

"Gentlemen." Liu Dashuai's gaze swept over everyone: "My Sichuan Army entered Jin Province and won a victory at the first attempt."

"What use is that?"

Several generals also suggested that the battle results in this telegram likely contained exaggerations.

Regarding Yan Laoxi of Jin Province, there was a great deal of anger in Deng Xihou's belly.

To engage one battalion of little devils, at least two regiments are needed.

"Yan Laoxi forwarded a telegram to us, telling you to properly discipline the 22nd Group Army."

There are two Type 92 Infantry Guns that are intact.

Just as everyone was talking happily.

"However, our Sichuan Army is not inferior at all."

"Then we have an obligation to speak up, so that the commoners of Jin Province know as well."

Fortunately, when Yu Hua, that kid, was re-equipping in Baoji and Chang'an, he had already mentioned the situation in Jin Province.

Many of the Sichuan Army generals still felt the battle results were somewhat exaggerated, though they estimated that annihilating one battalion was true.

"Even before, we have fought against Principal's direct-line troops."

"We should also tell Reporter Xiao about this matter and let her publicize it for our Sichuan Army."

To leave Chuan, a Group Army needs to be organized; everyone prepared to speak with Marshal Liu to have him contact the Nanjing Command.

"They still want to continue fighting; this is the first time I have encountered such a unit."

Huang Shaohong was somewhat skeptical.

In Marshal Liu's office.

Yan Laoxi had ulterior motives in sending this telegram.

As for the devils' Type 38 Rifles, there were also several hundred of those.

The 22nd Group Army was on its way to Niangziguan.

These past few days, the main generals of the Sichuan Army have also been studying the devils.

"Old friend, I know you are very angry right now."

The Sichuan Army unit that ambushed the devils consisted of one Regiment plus one Reinforced Company.

With this data, the 22nd Group Army annihilated one battalion of devils with only 300-plus casualties.

"De Cao and Jinkang annihilated one battalion of the devils' vanguard."

However, casualties of only three hundred or so—this might be a bit fake.

Marshal Liu was happy, and everyone didn't say much, but now this questioning telegram from Yan Laoxi had arrived.

Moreover, this battle also caused the devils to mobilize a portion of their forces.

"Our Sichuan Army 22nd Group Army has entered Jin Province to fight and won the first battle!"

"What's more, De Cao and Jinkang didn't even ask the 2nd War Zone for supplies."

According to the troop strength ratio, one devil soldier is equal to three or four of our soldiers.

The Sichuan Army also made its own contribution to the war of resistance in Jin Province, giving the troops near Niangziguan a chance to catch their breath.

"Just this one battle."

After the experience was summarized, the battlefield at the Y-shaped intersection was also cleaned up.

"Our Sichuan Army fought a victorious battle in Jin Province and did not waste the rations of the people of Jin Province."

This enabled Ceng Wanzhong's 3rd Army and Sun Lianzhong's 2nd Group Army near Niangziguan.

One must know that right now in the entire Jin Province, every unit is engaging the devils.

Yang Sen's 20th Army and Guo Rudong's 43rd Army fought well in Shanghai and were specifically commended by the Nanjing Command.

These soldiers were also Old Soldiers who had gained plenty of combat experience during the warlord infighting.

Speaking of this, Jin Jizhong sighed deeply: "Especially the devils' wounded, even the very last man."

The 22nd Group Army are all novices and have not yet had contact with the devils.

"Our 22nd Group Army has won its first battle in Jin Province."

Is this possible?

It was also delivered to the 2nd War Zone Headquarters, into the hands of Deputy Commander Huang Shaohong.

"It is normal to lack experience."

"Annihilated one battalion of devils and captured a large quantity of Weaponry."

"The devil soldiers are all stronger than our Republic of China Army."

Now, the public across the country has a good impression of the Sichuan Army.

Go to the ambush site to collect the bodies of the fallen devil soldiers.

Their combat effectiveness is considered quite good, and the soldiers have been enlisted for a long time.

"Adjutant!"

"This is favorable for our Sichuan Army's operations in Jin Province."

"Yes!" Sun Ming left with the telegram.

Because only he was clear on the detailed steps of the entire battle.

"Present!" Sun Ming arrived before Huang Shaohong.

Deng Xihou also received the victory report sent by Yu Hua.

"To tell the truth, I, Jin Jizhong, have encountered such a tough opponent for the first time."

Regarding this telegram from the 22nd Group Army, everyone in the Sichuan Army didn't want to be a killjoy just now.

"Next time!"

Just as everyone was celebrating the Sichuan Army's victory, the director of Marshal Liu's communications department entered the conference room.

"Must be a large margin higher."

"We occupied the favorable timing, terrain, and unity, yet the whole regiment still suffered over three hundred casualties."

Because it is currently the early stage of the war, most of the soldiers in the Republic of China Army are elite troops who have seen blood.

"Afraid?" Jin Jizhong said coldly: "In my, Jin Jizhong's, dictionary, there has never been the word 'fear'."

"I think they just want to use these fake battle results to replenish their Weaponry."

This also made the main generals of the Sichuan Army all want to leave Chuan quickly to have a go at the little devils.

Carrying a large amount of weapons, ammunition, and provisions.

"Whether it is marksmanship, bayonet techniques, or fighting spirit."

"Otherwise, our unit's casualties would have been even greater."

There are also over twenty Light and Heavy Machine Guns that can be used.

Marshal Liu took the telegram and looked at it, laughing heartily: "This Yan Laoxi is really stingy as hell."

Liu Pucheng felt a bit unhappy inside.

Jincheng!

Wiping out an entire battalion, with three hundred casualties?

After the Sichuan Army entered Jin Province, they ate their own food and drank their own supplies; the stingy Yan Laoxi wouldn't provide any reinforcements at all.

Seeing Jin Jizhong sigh, Yu Hua joked, "Regimental Commander Jin, are you afraid?"

Upon hearing this, Deng Xihou asked, "Report it to Yan Laoxi?"

Seeing Deng Xihou say this, Sun Zhen stepped forward, "But, since we of the Sichuan Army have now arrived in Jin Province."

"Yu Hua!"

"Besides, hasn't Reporter Xiao Ningxin from Ta Kung Pao arrived?"

"These devils have strong combat power and a tenacious fighting spirit."

When Yu Hua left Chuan, Marshal Liu had personally had a long talk with Yu Hua.

Moreover, he had also left behind a generous gift for Yu Hua.
