Chapter 1080 You've Completely Disrupted the Plans
It's just that we didn't know that here.
The chief of staff was somewhat bewildered.
Is it too late to ask now whether this is an independent brigade? Shouldn't the current priority be to mobilize troops immediately to deal with the situation?
Why are you asking if it's an independent trip?
"General, shouldn't we be dealing with the current situation now?"
Seya gave a bitter smile; "What can we do? Even if we can block the frontal attack, we can't stop the annihilation of the puppet army and a whole battalion."
The enemy has already surrounded us, and the Ninth War Zone will certainly quickly mobilize air force and ground troops to participate in this battle.
Even if I were to try to pull them out, I could probably only manage to pull them to the tip of the glacier.
On the edge of a glacier... what good can this do for me? It solves nothing; the higher-ups will still place all the blame on me.
“You should know that we received a lot of supplies in Shanghai, and we came here to hold position 002 and launch an attack on Changsha at the right time.” Seya turned to look at his chief of staff; “Do you think that we have not only failed to achieve any objectives under such heavy responsibilities, but have also lost position 002 in such a disastrous manner? Can you and I bear this responsibility?”
I... I can't do it. If I were to take on this responsibility, it would mean retiring from the military and returning to my rural home.
"We can't afford it."
"Yes, we can't afford it, so we need to find a reason to shirk responsibility, and the best way to do that is to shift the blame to their inadequate surveillance, which allowed the Independent Brigade to come over."
Independent travelers are destined for misfortune if they encounter someone equally formidable.
Independent brigade is the best shield.
If the higher authorities investigate, then one will have a plausible excuse to deflect responsibility.
Is this our own incompetence? No, it's because you didn't keep a close watch on things that we suffered such a heavy blow. Even if the Independent Brigade had been on guard, they might have suffered losses, let alone since we weren't on guard at all.
We made mistakes, but we cannot bear the main responsibility.
That's why he needed to figure out the situation quickly.
Setani is looking for excuses to shirk responsibility.
Zhou Weiguo, however, was summoned back to the war zone command post by an order.
"So you know how to come back." Seeing Zhou Weiguo and Asaka Xiuling enter, Commander Bai narrowed his eyes and approached them, asking, "Who ordered you to attack?"
Asaka Shurei was about to speak, Zhou Weiguo pulled her aside and told her not to open her mouth before saying to Commander Bai, "I gave the order myself."
"You've got some nerve, launching an attack without orders. Do you know that if I don't react in time, your forces could be quickly divided up by the Japanese, and you won't be able to retreat?"
"I believe that our commander will never abandon our independent brigade, and I also believe that our commander is the best commander."
"Shut up." Commander Bai was furious with Zhou Weiguo for his shameless flattery. He pointed at Zhou Weiguo, then returned to his seat and picked up his teacup.
Seeing that the two were still standing there like sticks, he narrowed his eyes and said, "What, do I have to ask you to sit down?"
"Of course not." Asaka Shurei smiled and approached Commander Bai, offering him a cigarette. "Commander, don't be angry. We had no choice this time."
How could Asaka Shurei, who was standing in front of him, say such a thing when she had no other choice?
He wanted to argue, but seeing Asaka Shurei's smile, he held back his anger and waited for her to light his cigarette before asking, "Oh, then tell me, how did you have no choice?"
"Sir, to be honest, the problem actually originated from the headquarters."
How could this involve the command headquarters?
Commander Bai grunted and looked at Zhou Weiguo; "Tell me, what does this have to do with my headquarters?"
Zhou Weiguo clicked his tongue. When should we begin this story?
Asaka Shurei was not afraid of Commander Shirai, and she took over the conversation once again.
"Sir, we were originally supposed to wait for orders, but several attacks on position 002 ended in failure. We analyzed that there was a problem inside, especially at headquarters. There must be Japanese spies. If we waited for headquarters to attack, the Japanese would probably find out. So, after we changed positions, we immediately launched an attack on the Japanese."
Commander Bai was speechless.
He took a deep breath and said, "Your analysis is correct. There are indeed Japanese spies here. I originally planned to hold a military conference to find out the spies hiding in my war zone headquarters, but now..."
Because of your attack, this plan can no longer be realized.
Fortunately, the offensive went smoothly. Although a portion of the Japanese battalion escaped, the puppet army regiment was completely annihilated. In addition, position 002 was recaptured, and the Independent Brigade had occupied the second line of defense, advancing the entire defensive line by nearly twenty kilometers.
Don't underestimate these twenty kilometers. No matter how the Japanese attack, these twenty kilometers can hold them off for two days, and our side can quickly make adjustments to block the Japanese attack.
The purpose of this trip was to seize this place. Now that the goal has been achieved, whether or not a meeting is held is no longer important.
"Sir, what do you think about this matter..."
"You attacked without orders, so I should have removed you from your post. But this time, your Independent Brigade caught the Japanese off guard and stabilized the situation in Changsha. If I were to punish you, the soldiers would probably not agree. Therefore, this time, let's consider your merits and demerits to be balanced."
He had neither accomplished anything nor committed any wrongdoing; this was the result of a joint discussion between him and several people in the command headquarters.
Zhou Weiguo didn't care much about this. Merit or no merit didn't matter, as long as he could fight the Japanese, as long as... as long as he could ensure that Ono wouldn't come running over to curse him in every battle.
Ono's demands are not high; as long as the gunshots ring out, he can make money.
"Thank you, sir." Zhou Weiguo stood up and prepared to go back. He was unsure whether the Japanese army would launch a counterattack. After all, they had occupied that place for a long time, and now he had suddenly taken it back. How could he be happy or satisfied?
"What, you're leaving?" Commander Bai glanced at Zhou Weiguo, then stood up and came to him. "You've caused me such a huge mess, and you think you can just run away?"
what?
