Double-Cut During the War of Resistance: My Wife Came from 1937
Chapter 244 Supply A; Victory Celebration
"Commander!"
Major General Naosaburo Okabe, Chief of Staff of the North China Area Army, walked in and asked, "How should the 5th Division be arranged?"
"We can only have Chief of Staff Toshio Nishimura temporarily handle the division's affairs!"
Terauchi Hisaichi took a deep breath, sat down in his chair, and instructed, "Have Nishimura continue to issue orders in Itagaki's name, and completely suppress the news of Lieutenant General Itagaki's death to prevent the morale of the troops from wavering."
"Also, report to the Tokyo headquarters and ask them to send a new division commander as soon as possible!"
"Hai!"
Naosaburo Okabe nodded and then asked, "At this stage, should we continue fighting against the Eighth Route Army?"
"Let's pause!"
Terauchi Hisaichi waved his hand and sighed, "In this operation against the Eighth Route Army's base area, our Great Japanese Army suffered heavy losses, with over 15,000 dead and wounded!"
"Winter has arrived, and it's not advisable to continue with large-scale operations. Let the troops rest and recuperate, and fight again next year!"
He paused, narrowed his eyes, and said to Naosaburo Okabe, "Given the formidable military strength of the Eighth Route Army, I intend to request the use of Grade A supplies from General Headquarters!"
"Supplies Grade A?"
Upon hearing this title, Naosaburo Okabe couldn't help but swallow.
Only these high-ranking Japanese military officers knew that the so-called "Type A supplies" were actually the code name for poison gas bombs within the military.
In the unit's combat reports, it would be written as "special cigarettes".
These poison gas bombs are not something that can be used casually; even if a division wants to use them, it needs to apply to the army group headquarters.
They used it in battles such as Pingjin, Songhu, Nankou, and Xinku.
Clearly, Terauchi Hisaichi was genuinely angry this time.
……
Taihang Mountain Base Area.
Division Commander Liu has returned to the division headquarters.
As soon as he returned, he found Xia Weiwei and said with a smile, "Comrade Xia, Old Nie told me to thank you properly!"
"What are you thanking me for?"
Xia Weiwei looked puzzled.
Chief of Staff Ni chuckled and said, "Of course, we thank you for the weapons and ammunition you brought, especially those McMillan sniper rifles; they've been invaluable this time!"
"We won again?"
Xia Weiwei asked.
"Um!"
Commander Liu took out a telegram and handed it to Xia Weiwei, saying, "This time, Lao Nie's Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region, with an independent regiment of 5000 men plus a guerrilla force of less than 1000, completely annihilated a Japanese regiment and severely damaged two battalions. They killed nearly 4200 enemy soldiers!"
"They also captured a huge amount of weapons and ammunition. Most importantly, even the commander of the Japanese 5th Division, Seishiro Itagaki, was killed by several sharpshooters with McMillan rifles!"
"They annihilated an entire regiment and even killed the Japanese lieutenant general division commander?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Weiwei exclaimed happily, "That's wonderful! Hongwei will be so happy to know!"
As a Chinese, she naturally knew that Ma Hongwei also deeply loathed the Japanese.
If Ma Hongwei knew this news, he would definitely be drinking to celebrate!
"Oh, right!"
Commander Liu said, "Speaking of Comrade Hongwei, Old Nie asked me to ask you if you could get more bulletproof plates and handheld bulletproof shields!"
"Actually, I think so too. In recent battles, this equipment has played a huge role, greatly reducing our soldiers' casualties!"
"Bulletproof plates and handheld bulletproof shields?"
Xia Weiwei nodded and said, "Okay, Chief, I'll tell Hongwei when I get back and have him buy another batch."
"There's no need to rush!"
Commander Liu said, "This time we have really hurt the Japanese. They have begun to tighten their defenses across the board, and the offensive has come to a temporary halt. They should not be able to launch another attack for some time."
"clear!"
Xia Weiwei nodded and said, "That's true, but we still need to prepare in advance and transport it to the soldiers."
"It's better to be safe than sorry. What if the Japanese don't follow the plan and suddenly launch an attack? That would inevitably lead to increased casualties among our soldiers, and that would be terrible."
"Yes, you're right, it's always better to be prepared!"
Commander Liu nodded and said.
Chief of Staff Ni, who was standing to the side, also said with a smile, "Speaking of which, we just finished fighting this battle, and the pork and roast chicken that Comrade Hongwei bought for us have been transported to various places."
"These are perfect for treating the soldiers!"
"Commander!"
Xia Weiwei couldn't help but remind them, "You have to keep a close eye on those medical alcohol and industrial alcohol. The soldiers absolutely cannot drink them; they're not for human consumption. Drinking them could be fatal!"
"Haha, don't worry!"
Chief of Staff Ni said, "These supplies are kept by designated personnel and are not normally accessible to other soldiers."
"Medical alcohol, for example, can only be used by medical staff, and they don't drink alcohol normally."
"As for industrial alcohol, it was only issued during combat, and with our Eighth Route Army instructors watching over it, no one could get a taste."
Upon hearing this, Xia Weiwei immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
She was afraid that the soldiers would drink the alcohol as if it were wine.
The three chatted for a while longer, and when Xia Weiwei saw that it was time, she asked the other side to let her travel through time.
At the same time, she stood up and said to Division Commander Liu and Chief of Staff Ni, "Commenders, it's almost time, I have to go back!"
"If Comrade Hongwei weren't absent, I would really like to invite you all to a victory celebration banquet!"
Commander Liu shook his head and sighed, "Let's wait until Comrade Hongwei comes next time, then we'll make it up to you!"
Xia Weiwei said, "Sir, you're too kind. Every time we come, you always have the cooks provide such a warm welcome. There's really no need for that."
"Compared to your contributions, that little bit of wild game is simply not worth mentioning!"
Commander Liu shook his head and said, "Remember to thank Comrade Hongwei for me and Lao Nie!"
"Yes, I will!"
As Xia Weiwei was speaking, Ma Hongwei had already approved her request to travel through time.
"Buzz!"
An invisible ripple in spacetime appeared and swallowed Xia Weiwei.
In an instant, she disappeared from the room.
Let's go!
Division Commander Liu said to Chief of Staff Ni, "It's time to celebrate with the soldiers. They're allowed to drink a little today, but they can't get drunk."
……
Another time and space.
Ma Hongwei was staring at the Time-Space panel, waiting for Xia Weiwei to appear.
