The beacon of youth

Chapter 417 Xi'an - Here We Come

Li Yong's suggestion was to let the commanders of the Second Army go straight to the audit. If what the Independent Brigade said was true, it would indeed be a rare opportunity to attack Xi'an at this time, but the plan arranged at the headquarters of the field army before the war was to let Commander Luo Yuan's Sixth Army went to attack Xi'an. If the Second Army acted without asking for instructions, it would not only violate discipline, but also be suspected of grabbing credit with the Sixth Army.

Brigadier Li Da knew what the several commanders in the army were worried about: "Several commanders, although the plan of the field army is to let the Sixth Army go to Xi'an, the plan has not changed quickly. The news that our brigade just came back said that Xi'an still has the Kuomintang. One of the chariot regiments, this chariot regiment was sorting out the supplies and ammunition, and the enemy ran away when it was late."

When Li Yong said this, the bosses all laughed. What are these people doing? They are all smart-minded masters: "Good boy, what are you doing while the iron is hot? You are thinking about the Kuomintang war in Xi'an." Is there a car group?"

Li Yong: "What the elders said is that even if I miss the enemy's chariot regiment, this is still an opportunity. If the Sixth Army wants to go to Xi'an, it must pass through Xianyang, but we haven't seen the shadow of the Sixth Army yet. , It means that the Sixth Army is still on the march, and when they arrive, they will already run away. Therefore, our army is in a good position. I suggest that our brigade go first. With the mobility of our brigade, it is entirely possible to stop the enemy. "

Seeing that several commanders were still hesitating, Li Yong continued: "Our independent brigade can go to Xi'an alone, and the main force of our Second Army will go to Xianyang. If the field army and corps have other tasks, our main force will do it. The task depends on the situation and follow up later, so that the orders of the superiors will not be delayed, and the enemies in Xi'an can be captured."

Li Yong's suggestion really moved several commanders of the Second Army. Commander Guo Peng, Political Commissar Wang Enmao, and Deputy Commander Chen were all from the ranks of red ghosts who joined the army in their teens. They have been fighting non-stop for more than 20 years. Everyone is a master who has experienced hundreds of battles and fears that the world will not be chaotic. The ability to catch fighters on the battlefield is unparalleled, and the courage to practice is stronger than pumpkins. Because the rank and position are getting higher and higher, so they are cautious. They exchanged positions with Li Yong, maybe these people are more anxious than Brigadier Li Da.

Several leaders of the Second Army made a brief calculation, and finally Commander Guo said: "Dayong, Chengde, your independent brigade's suggestion is very tempting, and it has convinced us a few. We have decided that since the opportunity to fight is rare, it is up to you The independent brigade went to Xi'an to perform tasks alone. The superior blamed it and we were responsible. You can do it boldly, but be careful not to underestimate the enemy. You are an infantry brigade with only eight tanks. Group fights may not be able to take advantage, so we must prepare for the worst and prevent the enemy from jumping over the wall in a hurry."

Commander Guo and the commanders of the Second Army thought everything into consideration, and what they said made Li Yong and Wang Chengde feel warm in their hearts. It seems that this leader took the initiative to take responsibility once the decision was made, in order to let the independent brigade have no worries. Just worry, let go of your hands and feet.

In fact, several leaders of the Second Army agreed to let the Independent Brigade go to Xi'an for many reasons. First, of course, fighter opportunities are hard to come by. A few people from the old Red Army encountered an opportunity and did not let it go easily. Their strength also made them aware. Compared with other armies, the Second Army had an extra independent brigade. Even if the field army had a temporary mission at this time, it could be completed with the strength of the other three main divisions of the Second Army that had just been replenished. Let a few long talk and do things have confidence.

After bidding farewell to the leaders of the Second Army, Li Yong and Wang Chengde ran back in a jeep. Ten minutes later, some people from the Independent Brigade left behind to guard the captured prisoners and supplies. Billows of smoke and dust rushed out like sparks.

The independent brigade that was in a hurry did not say hello to the brothers of the Second Army, and did not even have time to say goodbye to the old 2nd Regiment of the [-]th Division of its old army. Passed by the original target Xianyang, and rushed straight to Xi'an.

Xi'an was called "Chang'an" and "Jingzhao" in ancient times.It is one of the world-famous four ancient capitals in the world. It is the capital city with the most time, the most dynasties and the greatest influence in Chinese history. It is the cradle of the Chinese nation, the birthplace of Chinese civilization, and the representative of Chinese culture. It has the " "Natural History Museum".

Xi'an, known as "Golden City Thousands of Miles, Land of Abundance" in "Historical Records", is the auspicious place of the Chinese nation. It was built by King Wen of Zhou in the 12th century BC. 21 dynasties and regimes successively established their capitals here. It is 13 The ancient capital of dynasties, the four most prosperous dynasties in Chinese history, Zhou, Qin, Han, and Tang, all established their capitals in Xi'an.The discovery of the Yangguanzhai site in Gaoling, Xi'an pushed the history of Chinese cities to the late Neolithic age 6 years ago, and at the same time confirmed that Xi'an was the first city in world history.

Xi'an is a world famous historical and cultural city with a long history.Xi'an is one of the world-famous four ancient civilization capitals in the world. It ranks among the ancient capitals of China. It is the capital city with the longest history, the most dynasties and the greatest influence in Chinese history. In ancient times, "Lantian ape-man" multiplied here Living; the Neolithic "Banpo ancestors" established a tribe here. In the eleventh century BC, King Wen of Zhou established Fenghao Erjing on both sides of the Fenghe River. With many years of capital history, 31 dynasties such as Zhou, Qin, Han, and Tang successively established their capitals here, and it has the reputation of "the state of emperors in the middle of Qin since ancient times".

Xi'an used to be the political, economic and cultural center of China and the first city to open to the outside world. The famous Silk Road started from Xi'an. The rich historical and cultural heritage and long history make Xi'an's cultural relics and historic sites have many types, large quantities and great value. The height is second to none in the country, and many of them are rare treasures that are unique in China and rare in the world.

Xi'an is the city with the earliest and longest capital in China (more than 12 years) and the most dynasties.Xi'an condenses the essence of Chinese history: from the Western Zhou Dynasty, the peak of the slavery society, the Qin Dynasty, China's first unified empire, the Western Han Dynasty, China's first prosperous dynasty, to the Tang Dynasty, the peak of China's feudal society, Xi'an has written the most colorful history of China. chapters.

In Chinese history, 21 regimes are considered to have their capitals in Xi'an.But which of these dynasties should be called dynasties, and which dynasties should be regarded as Xi'an is a question of different opinions.

This is due to differences in people's understanding of concepts such as "dynasties", "capitals" and "capitals", which led to differences in which dynasties established their capitals in a certain place.It is currently accepted by officials and historians that there were 13 dynasties.In addition, there are different sayings such as 14 dynasties and 17 dynasties.

As the birthplace of Chinese civilization and one of the four ancient civilization capitals in the world (Xi'an, Rome, Cairo, Athens), Xi'an is endowed with unique tourism resources and is a famous historical city in the world.

In the Forest of Steles in Xi'an, there is a stele from the Qing Dynasty that records eight famous scenic spots in Guanzhong centered on Xi'an.These eight sceneries are:

Huayue celestial palm and Lishan evening photo.

Baliu wind and snow, Qujiang flowing water.

Yanta Morning Bell, Xianyang Ancient Ferry.

Thatched cottage smoke, Taibai snow.

What is Xi'an? To put it simply, it is the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of the Northwest. The influence is too great, and the political influence is greater than the military.

At this time, Xi'an City has become a mess. The Kuomintang government and major institutions have fled, and the army has fled. In the end, even the lawless security commander Yang Deliang fled with a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals. Organization of the Civil Defense Corps.

It would be better to say that they are from the militia than from the army. It would be a joke to have these people confront the People's Liberation Army that is rushing forward. Of course, this so-called Xi'an People's Self-Defense Corps is not as stupid as trying to resist. thing.

But there are accidents in everything. Up to now, there is still a very regular Kuomintang army in Xi'an that has not escaped. This army is the famous Second Chariot Regiment.

It's not that this army doesn't want to run away, but that they have too much property, and they can't take it all away for a while. The armored army is different from the infantry. The infantry only has a rifle and a few grenades on their backs. I just slapped my ass and left, but the tanks are not good. I usually look at these iron guys very imposing, but they put a huge logistical pressure on an army, especially the fuel needed by the tanks, which is something that the People's Liberation Army troops don't like. Astronomical figures that dare to be imagined.

At this time, the garrison of the ** Chariot Regiment was in chaos, with soldiers and officers arranging their belongings everywhere. Colonel Jiang Tiexiong was slapping the table in his regiment headquarters and cursing: "Run! If I’m in a hurry, I’ll go to Eighth Route.”

Jiang Tiexiong is an old man in the Kuomintang army. Although his military rank is not high, he is very old and has a good relationship with Shangfeng. It is said that he is connected with Jiang Weiguo, the second son of Jiang, so all the people of the Kuomintang in Xi'an can still sell him. This colonel should save face.

But this time, it was obvious that the leader of the regiment Jiang was wrong. After Hu Zongnan gave the order to retreat, all the gods in Xi'an were scrambling to escape, and no one paid any attention to him, the leader of the regiment, so much so that he begged his grandfather to sue him. It's no use talking to people.

What is the reason for this awesome chariot regiment leader to ask for help?The answer is also very simple. The chariot regiment that received the retreat order does not have enough means of transport, that is, there are not enough cars. If there are not enough cars, it is impossible to transport all the equipment and supplies of the chariot regiment, and these supplies and supplies are an armored unit. necessary for combat.

The head of Jiang had no choice but to ask those former friends, but none of his friends were generous enough to ask for help after hearing his intentions. Although cars are not rare in the Kuomintang troops, they are at this time. Very effective escape tool, lend the car to the chariot regiment?Isn't this a stupid thing done by a fool?

This puts the chariot regiment in a dilemma. If they want to withdraw quickly, they have to abandon a large amount of supplies and equipment, but once these supplies and equipment are abandoned, the combat effectiveness of the chariot regiment cannot be sustained. Mobility will be affected, which is why Captain Jiang Tiexiong is angry.

I borrowed some public information, please don't scold the old man to make up the word count, thank you friends for your support.
