    Since the distance was not very far, the group of people arrived at the foot of Xigu Mountain before noon.

    When Zhang Wenqing, Xie Fuguo, Huang Baitao and others arrived at Xigu Mountain, they were immediately stunned by the sight in front of them. They saw that there were densely packed tombs under Xigu Mountain. Judging from the seals, they should have been built recently, and the number was insignificant.  Thousands of seats.

    The motorcade immediately stopped, and then Zhang Wenqing pointed to the tombs not far away and asked: "Brother Solemn, are those the resting places of the brothers who died in the battle?"

    "Well, a total of 1,442 people are buried here!" Li Guoyao said in a heavy tone.

    The expressions of Zhang Wenqing and others were not as heavy as Li Guoyao's, but rather confused. At this time, Xie Fuguo suddenly asked: "Are all the brothers who died in this battle here?"

    Li Guoyao nodded and said, "Yes, they are all here!"

    "So the Seventh Division wiped out more than 9,000 enemies in this battle, but lost less than 1,500 lives in total?" Xie Guofu asked in surprise.

    "Well, this is just the number of people killed. In fact, there were more than 1,500 injured. Our casualties in this battle were around 3,000. The ratio of casualties between the enemy and ourselves was 3:1!" Li Guoyao said truthfully.

    Hearing what Li Guoyao said, all the national army generals on the scene looked confused and were all stunned!

    No wonder, China and Japan have been at war for more than half a year. The two sides have experienced the Battle of Pingjin, the Battle of Songhu, the Battle of Nankou, the Defense of Nanjing and the Battle of Taiyuan. As a result, without exception, the Chinese army was defeated.

    Defeat means defeat. There is nothing to say about the country's inferior strength. It's just that every time the Chinese army loses in a war, it's terrible. The ratio of casualties on both sides makes all the generals feel ashamed.

    ¡°Although the national government often modifies the data to be relatively beautiful when publicizing it to the outside world, it is just to deceive ordinary people. Everyone knows what is actually going on.

    Since the war began, the contrast in casualties between China and Japan has been astonishing. Even in the early defensive battles in North China, the casualty ratio between China and Japan was quite large.

    First, let¡¯s take the so-called Battle of Xinkou, which was a good fight, as an example. The Chinese side lost 20,142 people killed and 34,919 wounded in the Battle of Xinkou. In addition, 3,341 people were killed and 3,323 wounded in the Taiyuan Defense Battle.  A total of 23,482 people were killed and 38,242 wounded.

    According to Japanese statistics, during the Battle of Taiyuan, the Fifth Division, including the Shinohara Brigade and its affiliated troops, suffered 1,651 casualties and 4,592 casualties.

    To put it simply, in the defensive battle of Xinkou, the casualty ratio between China and Japan was already 10:1.

    Many other battles ended with the Chinese army being completely annihilated and the Japanese casualties dozens of people. In terms of the overall results of the six months, the Central Army's elite troops may have a casualty ratio of 1:3 or even lower than the Japanese army.  Other units tend to be between 1:5 and 1:10, or even worse.

    Regrettably, almost all the central elite troops were lost in the Battle of Dasonghu, and the remaining 36th Division was lost in the Battle of Fujinshan on the North Road of the Battle of Wuhan.

    The second-class elite Tang Enbo Corps was seriously damaged at the south entrance near the Great Wall in the outer suburbs of Peiping, but half of its combat strength was preserved. A few months later, it moved to the vicinity of Xuzhou and served as the main attack force in the Taierzhuang Battle to conduct external attacks and achieved significant results. However, due to its failure to  If the whole army can be destroyed, Tang Enbo's army will become the public enemy of public opinion.

    But now, someone told these people present that they actually suffered 1:3 casualties, and the national army was 1:3 and the Japanese army was 3. How could this make these people calm down.

    "Brother Solemn, are the casualties really 3000:9000? Is the statistics wrong?" Xie Fuguo said with a trembling tone.

    Li Guoyao shook his head and said: "It can't be wrong!"

    Then Li Guoyao pointed to several huge mounds of earthen seals in the distance and said, "Junzuo, Brother Xie and Brother Huanran, look over there!"

    "By the way, solemnly, I was just about to ask, brother, why are those Fengqiu so big? Did an important officer in your department die?" Xie Fuguo asked immediately.

    "No, those buried underneath are all Japanese devils!" Li Guoyao replied.

    "What, the Japanese are buried there? Then why build such a big Fengqiu?"

    "Because there are too many people buried underneath, at least five hundred people buried under one Fengqiu!" Li Guoyao said.

    Everyone was stunned for a moment, then counted and found that there were four large Fengqiu like this in the distance, which meant that more than 2,000 little Japs were annihilated here alone!

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "The Japanese casualties at the foot of Xigu Mountain exceeded 2,000, and at the front line of Wuliya, the Japanese army was also wiped out by more than 2,000 enemies. Counting the annihilation of enemies in Quanjiao County, Mangshan and other places,  number, singleOur army alone collected more than 7,000 Japanese corpses.  Moreover, the Japanese army has not stopped transporting the wounded to Chu County and other places in the past few days. The casualties of more than 9,000 people are only a conservative estimate, and the actual number may be much higher than the estimate!  "

    Everyone was dumbfounded for a while. Everyone was leading troops in battles, so they naturally understood the ratio between killed and injured. The number of soldiers killed in battle alone reached 7,000. If it were not a battle of annihilation, the number of injured might be as many as 10,000.

    Even if many battles in this battle were annihilation battles, the number of injured would not be less than three to five thousand. Obviously, the nine thousand casualties estimated by Li Guoyao's troops should be underestimated.

    "Suren, how did you do it?" Zhang Wenqing asked in surprise.

    Li Guoyao immediately said: "It's a long story, let's go up the mountain to talk, there are terrain sand tables and maps there!"

    "good!"

    Then, under the leadership of Li Guoyao, the group walked towards the mountain.

    Although Xigu Mountain is not very high, it is very steep. Although everyone is from the military, they are still out of breath and extremely tired after going up the mountain.

    "Brother solemn, you have found this place really well. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. No wonder the little devil suffered a big loss here!" Xie Fuguo said while panting.

    Li Guoyao smiled and said: "This was an accident. Some time ago, my wife came to visit me on the front line, but she was robbed by bandits here. My younger brother took the bandits into his nest in anger. Later, he found that it was easy to defend but difficult to attack.  So I left a troop of troops here and used it as a base, but I didn¡¯t expect that it was actually used a few days ago!¡±

    "It's a blessing in disguise!" Xie Fuguo said.

    Then Li Guoyao took everyone to the Juyi Hall on the mountain, pointed to the terrain sand table and said: "Everyone, officers and colleagues, please take a look, this is the terrain map near Quanjiao. I will explain the battle to you based on this terrain map.  The whole process!"

    Everyone was also very considerate and quieted down, waiting for Li Guoyao to tell.

    Li Guoyao immediately said: "Please see, everyone, this is Quanjiao, where our seventh division is temporarily stationed, and here is Nanqiao and Chuxian, where the Japanese 13th Division is stationed. In this battle, the Japanese army dispatched a total of one and a half brigades totaling 10,000  More than 8,000 people went out to fight, and their battle plan was to dispatch a large force to launch a sudden attack on Quanjiao County on New Year's Eve. The purpose was not only to take Quanjiao County by surprise, but more importantly, to hold back the main force of our army."

    "At the same time, Shigenori Numata, commander of the 26th Brigade of the 13th Division, commanded more than 12,000 men to dispatch from Nanqiao, following closely behind his sneak attack troops, trying to encircle Quanjiao after the small force delayed the main force of our army.  , annihilate our troops in one fell swoop!¡±

    After listening to the Japanese army¡¯s battle plan, everyone took a breath of cold air and secretly thought that the little devil was really insidious.

    Not only does this plan look murderous, but more importantly, the timing is also cunning. They actually chose to launch a surprise attack on New Year's Eve. It's so damn scary.

    You must know that Chinese people attach great importance to the New Year. New Year's Eve is often a day for family reunions. Even the army usually spends this night eating and drinking. Who would have thought that the Japs would suddenly launch an attack at this time!

    ¡°These sons of bitches are so terrible that they chose to start a war on New Year¡¯s Eve!¡±

    "Who says it's not the case? Don't they just celebrate the New Year?"

    "Who knows, I remember that our brothers from the 67th Army ate dumplings and drank wine that night. Fortunately, Wuhan was far away from the front line, otherwise it would have been totally ruined if we had been attacked by the Japs!"

    ?¡­

    Just as everyone was expressing their opinions, Xie Fuguo immediately asked: "Brother Solemn, how did you deal with it?"

    Everyone immediately turned their attention to Li Guoyao, waiting for his answer!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
