The beacon of youth

Chapter 259 The Proud Gao Xiang of the Battle of Xifu

The troops that were about to run out of food finally saw a large amount of materials and supplies, which made the cadres and soldiers very happy. The senior commander of the field army, Liu Jingfan, Deputy Commander Liu, was also very excited. (Apex Fiction hand-written novel)

It's no wonder that Deputy Commander Liu is very happy. He is the deputy commander in charge of logistics in the field army. Food is his most troublesome problem. Brain to find a way.

If the problem of food for the soldiers is not solved, Boss Peng, Ye Si, and the head of the column will not be able to do it no matter how capable they are. No matter how hard they tighten their belts, people still have to eat.

Political commissar Xi, who is known as a scholar of the Northwest Field Army, also said: "Yes, we have fought for so many years, and this time should be the largest seizure. The material reserves here are much more than that of Panlong Town. This time, even Boss He's pressure can be relieved a lot."

Boss Peng, who is usually very serious, also showed a rare smile at this time: "Old Liu, Lao Xi, don't be so happy, hurry up and let the troops replenish their ammunition. This time Hu Zongnan was hurt. The enemy is not I will let it go, there are still battles to be fought."

All columns and brigades of the Northwest Field Army that had entered the city rushed to replenish weapons, ammunition, and various urgently needed supplies to prepare for a possible counterattack by the enemy. Fortunately, there were enough supplies and ammunition, and the replenishment was quick.

The so-called columns are nothing more than the first and second columns and the two brigades of the sixth column, as well as an independent cavalry division directly under the Nosi.

When the Northwest Field Army developed to the first half of 1948, there were a total of five main infantry columns, namely, the first column He Bingyan, the second column Wang Zhen, the third column Xu Guangda, the fourth column Zhang Dazhi and Wang Shitai, and the sixth column Luo Yuanfa.

There was no third-column Xu Guangda's unit in the troops attacking Baoji this time, so there were four main columns of the Northwest Field Army in the Baoji area, directly under the Jiaye Division.

The main forces attacking Baoji City were the first and second columns, and the other troops did not take action. Boss Peng used one brigade of the sixth column to prevent possible reinforcements from the Majia cavalry, and the other two brigades were reserved as the reserve team of the wild division. All the main forces of the four columns deployed their defenses in Fufeng and Qishan to deal with Hu Zongnan's reinforcements.

Li Yong's independent regiment followed the second column and the fourth brigade into Baoji City with the column headquarters. No one is a fool to pull the spoils, the more good things, the better.

The people in the independent regiment were depressed for a while. When fighting with Li Yong, everyone has become accustomed to the style of killing first and attacking first. There is a style of picking out good things first. This time the situation has changed. They are the reserve team of the column. If you are in a hurry, you can't exert your strength, and you have no chance to make a move.

It seems that the desire to grab something first is about to fail. If you don’t pay the price, you won’t get anything in return.

The independent regiment is a unit directly under the column. Of course, it cannot be too far away from the headquarters when marching. The emotions of Li Yong and others were clearly seen by Commander Wang who was not too far away from them. Thick and big, in fact, the mind is very delicate. A truly careless person can't control thousands of troops. The carelessness on the outside is just an illusion.

There were too many people watching, and Commander Wang had a pretty good guess about what Li Yong and the others were thinking: "Hey, Li Yong, why are you guys a little downcast? Is it because you didn't grab something when you entered the city so late? Tell me You guys, there are plenty of ammunition and ammunition in Baoji City, so you don’t need to go everywhere to grab them, you can’t use them up anyway.”

Li Yong, Wang Chengde and the others knew that the commander could see their narrow-mindedness, but if they saw it, they could see it, did they think so, and there was nothing wrong with admitting it.

By the time the more than 3000 members of the Independence Regiment have settled down, it will not be too far before dawn. There are Eighth Route Army soldiers in gray uniforms everywhere in Baoji City. The common people are closing their doors and looking out from the inside The Eighth Route Army on the street.

The Northwest Field Army has the fewest personnel among the major field armies, but its qualifications are not small. The team from the old Red Army and the Old Eighth Road has poor discipline. Although the streets are full of troops, there is no one who disturbs the people.

This is also what Political Commissar Xi specially emphasized before entering the city. Baoji has always been an area managed by Jiang, a white area. The people here are different from the people in the Liberated Areas. They don’t understand our Eighth Route Army. We want the people to see the spirit of the PLA from us. Demeanor and work style, the three major disciplines, and the eight points of attention must be observed well, not even close to it.

When it was time for breakfast, the Artillery Battalion seconded to the old 2nd Regiment came back. Needless to say, the Artillery Battalion did a great job this time, not only helping the [-]nd Regiment to open a breakthrough, but also beating the city defense commander Xu Bao of Baoji to death together with the commando up.

Destroyed the enemy's command post, and also killed a two-star lieutenant general and division commander. This credit can't be considered small, so the battalion commander Gao Xiang had an unconcealable, somewhat annoying smile on his face.

It is only a few people who say they hate him, most people still greet Gao Xiang happily, who is this individual person who hates Gao Xiang?Who else is there, Ma Changsheng, the commander of the third battalion.

Ma Changsheng is not feeling well, look at this guy Gao Xiang, he walks with his face facing the sky, and he can't even see a big rock on the ground.

He didn't even raise his head, and didn't even look at Gao Xiang. With his head sullen, he slurped the food into his mouth, muttering while eating, "Is there any reason for this? God really doesn't have eyes, knock one Only one armored vehicle was knocked out, but there was a lieutenant general in it, and this credit was for hitting Gao Xiang on the head, and he couldn't dodge it even if he wanted to."

His grievances did not make the soldiers who ate with him spit out their food, and these soldiers stopped eating, and laughed and said: "Commander of the third battalion, are you anxious to see that he has made great achievements? It's useless to be anxious, no matter what, Xu Bao and the headquarters of the 76th Division were killed by Gao Xiang and his group, this is a fact, and it cannot be changed."

Ma Changsheng: "What do you guys know? Before the attack started, I went to the regiment headquarters to find the regiment leader several times, but they were all beaten back by the regiment leader. If we go up, we will definitely be able to kill Xu Bao, and maybe we can even catch him." Wouldn’t it be better to come back alive?”

Gao Xiang's ears are so sharp. Here, Ma Changsheng yelled loudly, and he immediately walked over: "Old Ma, how are you? Are you full? I'll tell you about the battle of our battalion when you're full."

Gao Xiang didn't care whether Ma Changsheng liked to listen or not, so he said in plain language: "This guy, the battle was fierce. When we went up with the whole battalion, the enemy was counterattacking, but who are we? Heroic Artillery battalion, in front of us, what is the difference between the enemy's counterattack and courting death, isn't it, even their division commander was killed, how is it? Great?"

After Gao Xiang finished speaking, he laughed and left. The people next to him also scratched their heads. You said that Gao Xiang is an angry kid, so he chose the most angry third battalion commander to make a story.

Ma Changsheng knew that this guy Gao Xiang was trying to anger him on purpose, the old soldier wanted to beat this guy to the ground, but then he thought about it, that would give everyone more excuses, people would say, look?The commander of the third battalion would have to act foolishly if he didn't win the battle.

Didn't the head of the regiment say that there is still a big battle to be fought, so just compete with him on the battlefield. I don't believe that our third battalion can be worse than you.

Not to mention what Ma Changsheng thought, Gao Xiang walked up to Li Yong and Wang Chengde at this time, Wang Chengde was busy with a lot of various statistical reports in front of him, he didn't even look at Gao Xiang, and said in his mouth: "If you don't have a good meal, what are you doing here?" ? Keep your strength to fight the enemy on the battlefield, don't keep fighting with Ma Changsheng."

Gao Xiang, who was somewhat mysterious, said in a low voice: "Leader, political commissar, I didn't mean to argue with the old horse. I came here to report something. I heard the old horse muttering along the way, so I purposely annoyed him a few words."

"What makes the situation so mysterious? What else can happen after the battle is over?"

Gao Xiang: "Leader, there is really a situation. Tell me, what is our regiment still lacking?"

Gao Xiang's question was a little strange. Li Yong smiled and said, "Did you pick up some treasures? Our regiment is short of everything, including personnel, food, planes and tanks."

Gao Xiang: "Head, I'm not joking with you. Airplanes and tanks are lacking, but we can't get them now, but think about what we still lack?"

Li Yong's heart flickered for a moment: "Gao Xiang, you mean there is an anti-aircraft machine gun? Where is it? Who caught it? Think of a way, see if you can exchange it with other things?"

Seeing Li Yong, the head of the group, looking anxious, Gao Xiang said proudly: "Boss, what's the point of letting others catch me and report back?"

Li Yong and Wang Chengde looked at each other. The air defense force of the independent regiment is very weak at this stage. Everyone is trying to find ways to get more air defense weapons. With an anti-aircraft machine gun, this is the independent regiment, and other troops don't even have such weapons.

Gao Xiang, who was a little proud, continued: "As soon as the assault team of our old 2nd Regiment opened the breakthrough, I selected less than 100 people from our battalion, and formed a commando team, and rushed up behind. I thought, no matter how many weapons and supplies there are in Baoji City, there must be a first-come-first-served basis. The first one is better. Did you teach me this, the regiment leader? When I enter the city, I will tell these people not to fight along the streets. Well, the Kuomintang troops are not enough for us to deal with, and their target is the enemy's warehouse, so it would be good to snatch one of them."

Thank you for your support, and bow to the brothers. I have been very nervous recently, and I can’t concentrate on the book. I have to stop updating. I can’t help it. I will often stop updating in the future. I don’t ask for leave every time, but please rest assured that I won’t be a eunuch. The concept of the book is still very long. Thank you again.
