Chapter 363 The Depressed Li Yuming at the Battle of Libei

The soldiers who were so idle that their palms were itchy finally waited for the order from their superiors, but this task was either not there, or it was powerful, and it was still a task as urgent as a spark. After receiving the order, the Independent Brigade pulled out all of them within 10 minutes .Book Friends Whole_Li*provide~provide

The brigade commander Li Yong and the political commissar Wang Chengde ran on foot like the soldiers. After more than a year of training, Li Yong was able to keep up with the rhythm of the troops. Dozens of miles of mountain roads are no different than eating biscuits.

After running and taking away, the mountain road of dozens of miles was finally finished. After a quick march, the clothes of the entire brigade were soaked in sweat. The people who took care of the cars and other important equipment were part of Sun Quanhou’s supply camp. People, these people have received the news a long time ago, the engine of the car is on the ignition, and a big pot of salt is ready for the meeting.

Sweating a lot is necessary to add some salt. The Independent Brigade is the best at these logistical issues, at least no other unit in the Northwest Field Army can compare.

Simply panted, drank some water and ate some dry food, and then the troops got on the car and left. The soldiers who got on the car fell on the car one by one and said strange things: "It's better to have a car. Look like it is now, and the people who are on the road At the same time, I can rest, and I don’t know the benefits of taking a car until after running, and now I look at the brother troops who usually march on foot, and I know that I am enjoying the blessing.”

Political commissar Wang Chengde listened to the chatter of the soldiers, and at the same time quickly got the political workers at all levels in the army to take action. He used this example to educate everyone about the importance of physical training for combat. ?It is the tradition of our Laoba Road to have a car and to have physical strength without delay.

Wang Chengde, who was born in the Old Eighth Road, is very good at doing political work, and he is very good at seizing every opportunity to educate soldiers. This is something that Li Yong, the brigade commander, admires very much.

The Eighth Route Army is marching and fighting all the year round, and they run endlessly. It's normal to run for a few days. Even those little devils who specialize in mountain warfare can be tired, let alone the kuomintang's miscellaneous names . (The regular army of the Kuomintang is still capable of fighting)

It is often said that Laobalu has a high political quality, but how did it come to have such a high political quality?It didn't fall from the sky, and many of them were the result of the impatient education of the political workers during the march.

Doing ideological work for everyone while marching and fighting, this is the most basic ability of political workers from the Laoba Road. Without this ability, it is impossible to be an instructor or trainer, let alone a higher-level political commissar.

It's time for dinner, but at this time, who can have the heart to eat, Li Yong ordered the whole brigade to eat while walking, and there should be no delay at all. Fortunately, the independent brigade is marching by car, and walking to eat is not a problem. Difficult things, leaning on the car's big box board, eating some dry food and drinking some water is still very easy.

Knowing that there will be a tough battle, the soldiers are in a good mood. They are talking and laughing along the way, discussing with each other how to make meritorious deeds. (This is indeed the case in the old PLA troops back then. The tougher the battle, the more excited it is.) But Li Yong is different, The soldiers don't have any psychological burden. They simply think that there is a brigade commander in everything. As long as our brigade commander is there, we will surely win the battle.

But Li Yong is very clear about what the troops are going to face. The independent brigade is facing a tough and vicious battle. If it affects the whole body, if it is not careful, it will lose everything. How can it be reversed with the strength of this brigade? The battle situation is what the brigade commander has to consider now.

Thinking of this, Li Yong could no longer be quiet anymore. He told Li Yuming, who was sitting in the co-pilot position, to give the task, immediately take a platoon and the only eight tanks of the independent brigade, and take a detour to the headquarters of the field army. In order to ensure the safety of the leaders, the main force of the independent brigade went straight to the position of the sixth column.

A platoon of soldiers and eight tanks turned a corner and left. A puff of black smoke came out from behind Stuart's buttocks, and then he left.

Li Yuming knew that the situation was critical, so he didn't argue with Li Yong about the lack of security at the brigade headquarters this time, so he led the troops out quickly.The brigade commander also repeatedly told us that the mark on our tanks is still the Kuomintang's blue sky and white sun military emblem. Don't let the comrades in the headquarters misunderstand it. It would be a big joke if our own people fight.

The speed of mechanized marching is indeed an advantage. Li Yuming's guard platoon and eight tanks all advanced. After more than half an hour, they will not be far from the outer defense area of ​​the headquarters. In order to prevent the guards from misunderstanding, Li Yuming sent A few soldiers ran over to explain the situation ahead of time.

Li was wrong, who would have thought that the tank with the blue sky and white sun military emblem of the Kuomintang would be his own.

At this time, the headquarters of the field army looked a little cluttered. Soldiers were busy running in and out of the field. Important equipment and supplies had to be packed in advance to save them from being caught off guard. No one knew how long the six columns could last. So everything has to be planned from the worst side.

The decision made by Boss Peng and the leaders was to resolutely not withdraw until the worst time came.

It’s no wonder that some of the elders are courageous, they are all cadres from the Long March, and they have fought against the devils for eight years. Walking should be the strength of their strengths. If you win, you will fight. If you can’t win, you will run. It’s nothing special. of.

A soldier ran in panting: "Master, there is a small army of ours coming, not too far outside, and there are a few tanks."

Several leaders in the headquarters looked at each other strangely, and one said: "Oh, it's interesting, a small army is here? How many tanks are there? This is a rare item, call their commander over."

Not long after, Li Yuming pressed the pistol on his buttocks and ran in with the guards. Li Yuming's heart was pounding when he entered the room. Looking at this posture, he knew that there were all big men inside, but he was nervous. Li Yuming also breathed a sigh of relief secretly, as long as the leaders are fine, even if the position of the sixth column is broken by the enemy now, he is sure to withdraw the leaders.

"Reporter, Li Yuming, commander of the Second Column Independent Brigade, and the guard company commander, was ordered to come."

A leader asked curiously: "Ha, the troops from the Independent Brigade have arrived. Why are there still a few tanks? How many of you are here?"

Li Yuming just ran in from the outside, the room was a little dark, his eyes hadn't adjusted to it for a while, the people were a little blurry, and he didn't dare to look closely at who asked, anyway, all the people in the room were long, and everyone who asked was the same, This guy straightened his neck: "Reporter, we have a guard platoon and eight tanks, please rest assured, I will immediately order the troops to drive up the tanks and put them at the entrance of our headquarters. Commanders, get into the tank and make sure you can get out safely."

This was Li Yuming's little calculation when he came here. The brigade commander asked us to ensure the safety of the commanders. How can we make sure that nothing happens?Thinking and thinking really made Li Yuming come up with a way.

Since we have tanks, we have to use them. If the situation is really dangerous, let the commanders enter the tanks, and then use the tanks to retreat. Even if there are more troops of the Kuomintang, they will not be able to catch up.

Just when Li Yuming was secretly happy about his method, a deep and somewhat annoyed voice sounded: "Nonsense, how many tanks are driving here? How many tanks are there in your brigade?"

"Reporter, there are a total of eight tanks in our brigade, all of which are here." Li Yuming's voice was a little soft, and the boy seemed a little dissatisfied with the commander just now.

"Nonsense, what are you going to do with the headquarters with just a few treasures? I, Peng Dehuai, don't need your tanks for protection, so go back and tell your brigade commander that it's easy to keep us guys safe. Fight well, buy more time for the main force to withdraw, and go.”

Boss Peng must be right to listen to the chief's speech, Li Yuming muttered: "Reporter, I won't go, our brigade commander said that we must ensure the safety of the headquarters, and if something happens, we will kill our heads. You will be trained when you go back."

Hahaha, there was a burst of laughter in the room, and even Boss Peng, who was always calm, also laughed: "Go back, your brigade commander won't scold you, and we will be safe if you fight the battle ahead, don't worry, let's go. Don't we still have our own guards? Enough."

Li Yuming had no choice but to salute the commanders, and then walked out, checking the calculations as he walked, the commander had an order, he couldn't do it if he didn't go, and he was afraid of being approved by the brigade commander when he went back.

The sullen Li Yuming returned to the guard platoon and ordered the troops to turn around and rush to the position of the sixth column. The soldiers couldn't hold back and asked: "Company commander, aren't we performing guard duties? Why did we leave now?"

Li Yuming replied impatiently: "Is there anything I can do, if we don't let us here, say that it is a combat force, we will go to the front line. They have their own guard force, and they can deal with the situation."

The soldier who asked the question was a veteran with a lot of combat experience. He took Li Yuming's words and said, "What's the use of the guards at the headquarters? And those broken guns, how much combat power can they have?"

It's no wonder that the soldier suspected that the headquarters of the field army didn't have many guards at all. Boss Peng didn't approve of spending a lot of manpower on the guards, and the weapons used were all eliminated from the frontline troops. Do your best to meet the needs of the frontline.
