Chapter 859 5th Division
Chapter 859 5th Division
"Commander..."
Zhao Tiezhu came in from outside, exhausted. Li Shaoyi had just been listening to other military reports, so he didn't have time to see Director Xie and the others off, so he asked Zhao Tiezhu to send them to the airport personally.
"Old Xie, are they all gone?"
Li Shaoyi looked at the military deployment map in front of him and felt that we have been on the passive defense all the time. This does not seem to be the style of the 72nd Army. It is time for an offensive. Before, there were not enough defensive forces in various places, and talking about an offensive was nonsense. Now such conditions are in place. The plane that took away Director Xie has just delivered an armored battalion of 1,500 people to Li Shaoyi.
Of course, these people did not carry various weapons and equipment, and Li Shaoyi did not need to carry them here. He just needed to bring people here. Under the leadership of this armored battalion, plus one or two infantry battalions, they could completely attack the Japanese on the beach.
"Everyone got on the plane. After getting on, some brothers fell asleep immediately. They really suffered these days in Tianjin. They were the first group to face the Japanese. Some of them couldn't even eat."
It is normal that they can't eat with so many brothers leaving these days. They suffered the first round of attack and were beaten badly.
"Inform the logistics personnel in the rear to take good care of them. No matter how much it costs, those who need medical treatment must be treated. What about the people who need pensions?"
Before arranging combat missions, Li Shaoyi had to take care of all matters. Now Li Shaoyi also realized that the 72nd Army had formed a huge organization. If Li Shaoyi asked about something, hundreds or even thousands of people below might be taken care of, especially those who died in action and those of the 29th Army.
Li Shaoyi was very familiar with this period of history. After the 29th Army retreated from North China, its overall strength was greatly weakened, so the matter of providing pensions to the families of the fallen soldiers basically stopped. They were not the Central Army, so they could not expect much money from the people of the Nanjing National Government. Therefore, the lives of many heroes' families fell into hardship, which was also the reason why Li Shaoyi wanted to provide pensions to some people.
"Please rest assured, Marshal. Our offices in various locations have already begun work according to the personnel. The 29th Army also sent us some personnel lists, but it's hard to say whether they are true or not."
Hearing what Zhao Tiezhu said, Li Shaoyi raised his head with a suspicious look.
"The list of names given by the regiment that lost its lives in Fengping County is genuine. I don't know who leaked the information, but the 29th Army learned about it and sent money and gifts to the families of the deceased. We kept a close eye on the subsequent list and have already found several people who were not genuine."
Driven by financial interests, some people dare to take advantage of any benefit. This is the pension for fallen heroes, and these guys dare to put it in their pockets. They are really not human beings.
"I'll deal with every one I find. There's no room for negotiation on the battlefield. Anyone who dares to take this money will be dragged out and shot immediately. I don't care where they were born. If there's someone behind this, I'll shoot them all if I catch them."
Li Shaoyi said very angrily, the men in other people's families are fighting on the front line and have lost their lives, and you bastards are staying in the rear. I just asked you for a list of personnel, and you dare to think about this. If you don't kill a few people, this situation will happen again in the future.
"Yes."
After Wang Manli recorded Li Shaoyi's order, she immediately began to convey the order to various logistics departments, saying that if anyone dared to think about this, we would use their brains.
"Leave these things to them. Come over and take a look. A tank battalion just arrived. I plan to use the tank battalion as the main force, and then add one or two infantry battalions to welcome the new Fifth Division..."
According to the original combat deployment, the Fifth Division should have attacked along the Great Wall and would not appear here.
However, because Li Shaoyi's army was powerful, the Japanese high-ranking officials believed that the 50th Regiment, a main force and veteran unit, could not fight other Dragon Kingdom troops. Instead, they should go head-to-head with Li Shaoyi's army to see which one was the most powerful.
"I've wanted to fight this army for a long time. It's said that this army is very famous in the Japanese Army. I will lead the team there personally and I guarantee that I can take a piece of their meat."
Zhao Tiezhu rubbed his hands and said that among the generals at the highest level, only his military achievements were not enough. Li Shaoyi saw his expression and knew that there was nothing more to say. Now that the Fifth Division has arrived, we must have a welcoming ceremony.
"I don't care what you do. This is your business. According to our old rules, I only look at the results. How much weapons and equipment does your tank battalion have? I'll equip you with them immediately, and I'll also give you two infantry battalions. Beyond that, I don't have any support for you. Even though the planes are taking off and landing non-stop, over 800 of our brothers were killed yesterday. We're seriously short of troops everywhere."
Li Shaoyi moved a few small flags on the sand table. Zhao Tiezhu saw that the troops he was given were all elite, so he naturally said nothing. Although the Fifth Division had a total of more than 28,000 people, there were only about 20,000 people left in Tianjin, and the rest were still on the way.
We have more than 6,000 people here, including the tank battalion, so there should be no problem.
"Let me remind you that there's also the 27th Infantry Division next to the 5th Division. This infantry division isn't very strong, having been temporarily formed from retired soldiers in the Northeast. It didn't go through much of a run-in period, and all of them are under the command of that old devil, Itahara."
Li Shaoyi knocked hard again beside him. On the surface, your opponent is only the Fifth Division, but in fact there is another division.
"I know the 27th Division is understaffed, with only about 15,000 men at most. They're said to be the elite retired Kwantung Army. Intelligence has photos of them. Some of them have bellies so big they can't even see their toes. They've sucked a lot of blood out of the people in Northeast China, so I'm going to give them some bleed."
After these guys retired from the Northeast, they all became leaders of the local Japanese pioneer group. They killed countless civilians on the land of the Northeast.
Normally, we couldn't find them, but we didn't expect them to come all the way to North China. Now that they're on our territory, there's nothing much to say. We've been preparing for this, sharpening our knives and attacking the devils without mercy. We have to scare them.
