I'm killing enemies with my sword and exploding equipment

Chapter 820: After dividing the luggage, let’s go back to our homes!

This side of Hedi Village.

Our army's various regiments were busy cleaning up the battlefield until the afternoon of the third day after the battle. With the hard work of thousands of villagers mobilized by Han Yang, they were barely able to complete the task.

The collected guns, ammunition, military uniforms and boots, food, medicine, water bottles, helmets and other items piled up like mountains.

The Hedi Village section of Zhengtai Road was completely blocked.

The soldiers from other regiments, except the Special Forces Regiment, were itching to try their luck.

Everyone was wondering: With so much spoils, how much would their group get?
Should be able to make a fortune? ? ?

However, they then remembered that this battle was mainly fought by the Special Forces Regiment, and even if the spoils were to be divided, the Special Forces Regiment should get the lion's share.

In an instant, the fantasy of getting rich was dispelled.

……

Of course, Yang Yuanshan had no interest in these trophies.

At this moment, he called together all the cadres of the special forces regiment and asked:

"Comrades, this battle should be over.

All battalions should report their casualties.

Let’s start with the first battalion.”

The battalion commander Xu Wei immediately stepped forward to answer:
"Our first battalion's artillery company is still basically intact, but several infantry companies have suffered heavy losses. Now the entire battalion has a total of 670 people."

"My goodness, 60% of the casualties!"

Yang Yuanshan was so heartbroken that his liver ached.

The first battalion was brought over from Zhengjiagou by Zhan Haishan. It had not experienced the fierce battle at Shibangou and had a relatively high proportion of veterans among all his battalions, with a very complete organization.

It was really hard for him to accept that he had suffered such a huge loss.

He quickly asked:

“Have all the wounded been sent to Xingshupo?
This morning, Lao Zhou sent a telegram saying that he and Zhao Li had brought soldiers from the baggage camp and escorted some doctors and nurses back to Xingshupo, where they could treat the wounded.

“It’s already been sent.

There were more than 300 lightly wounded and seriously wounded soldiers in our battalion. I asked the lightly wounded to escort the seriously wounded soldiers."

Xu Wei replied.

"it is good."

Yang Yuanshan nodded.

Then he looked at the second battalion commander He Yunfu.

……

Soon, all the battalions reported their casualties.

Yang Yuanshan silently calculated the amount in his mind, and then he took a breath.

He suddenly realized that his five infantry battalions, three artillery battalions and one guard battalion, which originally had a full strength of 5 people, now had less than 3 people left!
Even so, in Shibangou, they absorbed nearly 4000 captured Japanese invaders from the 1st Independent Division of the Locust Army.

In Taiping Village, the result was that nearly 1500 militiamen and recovered veterans brought by Zhan Haishan were absorbed!
The casualties are truly heavy!
If it weren't for the significant role played by these nearly 5500 additional troops, he might not even have 1000 men left now!

In that case, the special forces regiment would be almost wiped out.

After hearing the casualties, all the special forces regiment cadres present fell silent.

After a long while, Han Yang smiled bitterly and said:

"Captain, our special forces regiment was seriously injured in this battle.

I’m afraid we won’t be able to fight a tough battle in the next two or three months.”

Zhan Haishan's mouth twitched and he said:

"I, Zhan Haishan, have been through many fierce battles since I joined the army. I was also surrounded and intercepted by people from the National Company.

But this is the first time I have seen a battle with such great results and such tragic sacrifices!

I just visited each platoon and squad and found that the soldiers in many platoons and squads have been replaced two or three times.

Many platoons even have only one or two veterans left.”

Yang Yuanshan felt very heavy-hearted and quickly explained:
"Each of you battalion commanders, go down and make sure to compile and report the names of the fallen and injured soldiers.

Later I will ask Lao Zhou to help them apply for the honor of martyr to their superiors."

"clear."

The cadres agreed in unison.

Han Yang sighed:

"Captain, I'm afraid that this time, the list of casualties we have to report to our superiors will be very thick!"

Yang Yuanshan nodded and sighed helplessly:
"There's nothing we can do. The enemy is strong and we are weak. Our sacrifice is inevitable."

Then, seeing that everyone was a little depressed, he quickly encouraged them:

"However, it was the sacrifice of our special forces that enabled the rest of our army to survive.

It was worth it because my fellow villagers in northwestern Shanxi were not massacred by the Japanese devils in large numbers.

Think about it, how many casualties did we suffer during each of the Japanese raids? "

After hearing what he said, everyone felt a sense of pride.

Sacrificing one's life to defend one's country is a worthy death!
……

After that, Yang Yuanshan asked about other things and then told everyone:

“In the next few days, your battalions will disperse to nearby villages to rest.

If conditions permit, recruit more soldiers to fill up the establishment and strengthen training. If there is any urgent military situation, I will inform you by telegram. "

"Yes!"

"Oh, by the way, Commander, our battalions have suffered a lot of losses in weapons and equipment. What should we do?"

Wang Quanfa stood up and asked.

"There's no rush for this. Once this busy period is over, we'll have to reorganize our regiment. By then, I'll provide you with all the equipment you need."

Yang Yuanshan answered.

He didn't want to get a lot of equipment for everyone now, and then have to carry it around.

When all the personnel from various camps are gathered, it would be great to just do an airdrop, which would save time and effort!
The delivery distance of 50 kilometers allows him to deliver equipment to the troops near Heyuan County, which is extremely convenient.

Of course, they did not doubt what Yang Yuanshan said.

They all nodded and went their separate ways.

……

As soon as everyone left, Han Yang asked Yang Yuanshan curiously:

"Captain, why don't you see the monk and Xizi?
Where are they?

Won't--"

Hearing this, Yang Yuanshan was shocked.

He had been so busy these days that he actually forgot about these two people.

Just as they were about to send someone to look for them, a sentry ran in from outside and reported:
"Captain, Captain Wei of the Special Operations Company and his men are back."

"OK!
It is true that if you mention the devil, he will appear. "

Yang Yuanshan breathed a sigh of relief.

He quickly ordered:

"Tell the monk to come see me quickly."

"Yes!"

……

After a while, Wei Dayong, covered in mud and as dirty as a clay man, came hurriedly.

When Yang Yuanshan took a look, he found that Wang Xikui, who was also dirty, was following him, and he couldn't help but be even more overjoyed.

This is a double happiness.

Say hello quickly:

"Heshang, Xizi, why are you guys together?"

Wei Dayong immediately grinned, revealing a few dazzling white teeth:

"We happened to meet Xizi and the others on our way back, so we walked together."

His appearance almost made Yang Yuanshan think he saw a black man.

I wanted to help him brush off the dirt on his body, but I couldn't bring myself to do it.

I could only nod and ask again:
"Okay! I was going to send someone to look for you.

how about it?
Are all your people back?
What about the casualties? "

"Yeah, they're all back. There are only 28 of us left in our company, but the organization is still intact."

"There are still 15 people in our class."

Seeing that these two elite small troops had suffered a lot of losses, Yang Yuanshan was naturally depressed.

However, he immediately pulled himself together and said to Wei Dayong excitedly:
"Monk, you did a great job in attacking the Japanese headquarters.

They destroyed the Japanese command center in one fell swoop and killed two lieutenant generals, including their commander Kazuo Shinozuka.

I estimate that after our detailed battle report is submitted, your name, Wei Dayong, will be known throughout the world.

You will be overwhelmed by the telegrams of commendation from your superiors.

Who knows, maybe a few reporters will come and interview you!"

Wei Dayong was naturally very happy to hear the good news.

Smiling from ear to ear:

"Hehe, I knew there must be big fish in that cave!"

"By the way, why did you guys just come back after several days?"

After watching him laugh foolishly for a while, Yang Yuanshan asked again.

Wei Dayong then narrated the process of their pursuit and killing of the Japanese devils.

Hearing that they had killed at least several hundred Japanese devils along the way, Yang Yuanshan naturally admired them very much.

After praising them, I let them go down and rest.

……

As soon as they left, Yang Yuanshan was about to sit down and drink some water when suddenly Ding Wei, Kong Jie and Fang Dingan came together.

From a distance he shouted:
"Yang Yuanshan, the battle is over.

Does that bastard Li Yunlong have any instructions?
If there are no instructions, shall we just divide the spoils and return to our respective defense areas?"

He looked just like Zhu Bajie who was about to pack up his luggage and leave.
