Chapter 806 Internal Action
Chapter 806 Internal Action
"Yes, we will do our best to eliminate the enemies outside, and we will act immediately."
Wang Guohai loudly repeated Ma Leizi's order, and his men also heard it, but there was no joy on their faces. This was an attack on our brothers, and of course this was not what we wanted. You have been staying around us and posing a threat to our safety. We have warned you many times, and it is reasonable for us to attack you now. We also used courtesy first and then force, and we will not help you if you can't hold on.
On the other hand, Wang Yuanzhu also received an order from the Third Army Headquarters, asking them to continue to stay where they were, but to be careful of sneak attacks from the 72nd Army.
Looking at the telegram in front of him, Wang Yuanzhu was a little amused. Given their combat strength, is it necessary for them to come and attack us? Do we have heavenly soldiers and generals here or something?
"Report to the brigade commander, the opposing army is making a major move."
The telegram was still in his hand, and the scouts outside had already come to report. Wang Yuanzhu took two steps at a time and ran out from the command center. Planes at the airport in the distance were already taking off one by one.
“It has a bomb hanging on it.”
The chief of staff next to him saw clearly that the entire infantry brigade had only one high-powered telescope, which was specifically used to observe the airport. It was conceivable what the level of their weapons and equipment was. Compared with the airport garrison, they were at least twenty years behind.
"They are already very good to have endured until now. If we had that kind of strength, would we endure it?"
Wang Yuanzhu bit his lips and said that the last thing he wanted to do was to start an internal war, but the orders from above and the current situation forced him to make a decision.
"Brigade Commander, if we really fight, whether we win or lose, we won't be in the right. The pilots here went to Liaodong to fight the Japs. A few days ago, the funeral of the fallen pilot was attended by the local people. Tens of thousands of people came. This is the will of the people. If we fight them, what will we be? Helpers of the Japs?"
The chief of staff said with deep sorrow that they had just arrived at the local area that day and saw many people going to the airport. After asking around, they learned that the funeral of the deceased pilot was being held that day and tens of thousands of people from the surrounding area had gone there.
"Brigade Commander, the Chief of Staff is right. We used to fight this and that, following the commander all over the country, from the northwest to eastern Shandong, and we didn't say anything. The enemy was just like us, some local warlords, but these people in front of us are different. They are fighting the devils. Have you forgotten what we were taught before? They said they would lead us to the northeast and drive all the devils out. Now they are doing what we didn't do, and we still have to fight them. What's going on? I won't do it anyway."
"I won't do it either. They're fighting the Japanese, and it's fine if we don't help them, but we're also trying to undermine them. If this gets back to my hometown, I'm not sure how people will criticize me. If I die someday, how will I face my ancestors?"
The officers around expressed their opinions one by one. These people were all Wang Yuanzhu's confidants who followed him from the northwest. If these people were unwilling to fight, the entire infantry brigade would not be able to fight at all.
"What nonsense are you talking about? This order was issued by the Army Group Headquarters and it bears the Commander's signature. If you try to disobey, do you know what the consequences will be?"
Although Commander Han's army is not very strong in combat, its internal discipline is still very strong. Some disobedient people have been dealt with long ago, and they have been seen a lot in recent years.
"So what? Although we value loyalty and filial piety, we must first be loyal to our country. The Japanese are riding on our heads, and we are wearing this military uniform. If we don't go looking for trouble with the Japanese, they will beat them up. But we are looking for trouble with the 72nd Army. This logic is unreasonable no matter how you look at it. At worst, I can take off this military uniform and join the 72nd Army. I really don't believe that I can't make a name for myself based on my skills on the battlefield over the years."
Sun Shengxi, the captain of the guard company, was a notorious madman on the battlefield.
"Old Sun is right, Brigade Commander. Don't blame us for being dissatisfied. You're good to us, and everyone knows that. In the past, when you asked us to do something, we never said anything else. We just did it and that was it. But today, we can't do that."
The commander of the second regiment also stood up. This guy was a distant relative of the brigade commander, but he could not go against the greater good at this moment.
Moreover, if a fight really came to this, look at the weapons they had and then at ours. Are they even on the same level? If a fight broke out, we would be defeated.
Wang Yuanzhu also saw it. Just by listening to the words of these officers under him, he knew what the soldiers were thinking. If he continued to act on his own and follow the orders of the headquarters, he was afraid that even he, the brigade commander, would be arrested by them. Now he had to be vigilant.
"Alright, stop talking. I understand what you guys mean. The old commander has been kind to us, but now we have to use our brains. We can't win by fighting, and we can't even bother with this. I'm going to persuade the old commander one last time. If he still doesn't want to, we can negotiate with the 72nd Army and see if they want us. But let me be frank. In this situation, they have their own standards. Those opium-smoking, bullying, and bullying guys under your command really can't get in."
Wang Yuanzhu slammed the table and made a big decision. If you don’t make a decision now, I’m afraid you will never have this opportunity.
The brothers also looked happy. As for those heavy smokers, we couldn't care less. It was their fault for not keeping themselves clean in normal times and making their bodies like this. The 72nd Army was also fighting the Japanese, but it was different from our warlord army. It was normal not to want these people.
Wang Yuanzhu called the provincial capital and prepared to make a final effort. The airport garrison regiment had also assembled, and the armored units began to advance to the periphery, but did not open fire. They did not want to fight with their brothers, but just wanted to display all our weapons and make them retreat.
When the tanks and armored vehicles of the Airport Garrison Regiment drove out, the brothers of the 122nd Brigade were indeed dumbfounded. Is this the army of our Dragon Country?
They had never seen such an army before. The soldiers were fighting in cars. Is there such a thing in the world?
Just as they were confused, dozens of planes flew across the sky in a neat formation. This was a sight they had never seen before...
