The beacon of youth

Chapter 425 The old sow Sai Diaochan

Just when Ma Bufang and Ma Hongkui were biting each other for official positions in the Nationalist Government, Chiang Kai-shek, who had resigned from the field, had already gone to Taiwan, and the Nationalist Government also moved to Guangzhou.

In order to achieve her goal, Ma Bufang tried every means to send people to Guangzhou to find Acting President Li Zongren. The position of Army Chief was successfully appointed.

After Ma Bufang took office in Lanzhou, he immediately replaced all the officials at all levels in the Chief Executive's Office with his own people. Even the Kuomintang troops stationed in Lanzhou were replaced by the Qingma Army. All the Kuomintang troops stationed in Lanzhou were driven out by him. He doesn't care where he goes, but he can't stay in Lanzhou. Ma Bufang thinks that although they are all called **, his army should rest assured.

This is really an emperor and a courtier, one person ascends to heaven, and the people in the Qingma Army system are ecstatic. They have a carnival all night in the entire Lanzhou city, singing big plays, drinking flower wine, and whoring women. They really can do whatever they want. Now The owner of Lanzhou City is our Qingma Army. I should do everything. The local government of Qinghai, Ma Bufang’s hometown, also sent people a lot of gifts and thousands of horses. They marched into Lanzhou City to congratulate the old chief. .

Ma Bufang was even more complacent and full of ambitions. Among officials in Qinghai and Gansu, he said that he was the pillar of the party-state in the Northwest and the hope of the party-state in the northwest.

While Ma Bufang and his subordinates were having fun, Ma Hongkui never took the post of chairman of the Gansu Provincial Government. This made Ma Hongkui feel left out. How can the great cause of the party and the country be achieved, and how can the communist army be defeated."

But no matter what, Ma Bufang and Ma Hongkui still agreed to send troops. Although Ma Hongkui was dissatisfied with Ma Bufang and the Kuomintang government, there was nothing he could do. The Guanzhong area is really important. Once it is occupied by the Communist army for a long time, let alone Gansu The chairman of the government is now, and even his hometown of Ningxia is not enough. Therefore, under the strong pressure of the People's Liberation Army, the two horses still shook hands and made peace.

After shaking hands and making peace, Ma Bufang and Ma Hongkui jointly sent power to Chiang Kai-shek in Taiwan. The two horses promised that as long as Hu Zongnan could cooperate, their troops would attack the Communist army with all their strength, retake Xi'an and the Guanzhong area, and serve the party and the country. Make new achievements.

It stands to reason that there is no need for the two horses in the northwest to generate electricity for Chiang Kai-shek, because what they say is that the president of the party-state is Li Zongren, not Lao Jiang, but the problem lies here. Within the Kuomintang government, Li Zongren's words are effective or can be mobilized The army only has the troops of Bai Chongxi of the Guangxi Clique. The other Kuomintang troops are like dogs farting with the warrant of President Li Dai, and Li Zongren can't command it at all.

After decades of Chiang Kai-shek's management, most of the important positions in the Kuomintang army are held by Huangpu students, and these Huangpu students only obey Chiang Kai-shek's orders. It is the principal of Whampoa who speaks well, and the acting president Li and Yan Xishan's cabinet are just deaf ears and decorations.

The idea of ​​the two horses is in the arms of Chiang Kai-shek. Under the current situation, there are only two places that Lao Jiang wants to keep by all means. One is Taiwan and the other is Sichuan.

The People's Liberation Army has no aircraft, no warships, and no large-scale sea-crossing combat capabilities. There is no problem in keeping Taiwan. The rest is Sichuan.

As the saying goes: The road to Shu is difficult, and it is difficult to go to the blue sky. The reason why Liu Bei was able to divide the world with Sun Quan and Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period was largely because of Sichuan’s special geographical location. If you can't get in, you can only send the air force to bomb.

At this stage, as long as the Guanzhong area can be kept, Qing, Gansu, and Ningxia can be kept, and as long as Qing, Gansu, and Ningxia can be kept, Sichuan can be kept. Therefore, the Guanzhong area must be taken back.

Chiang Kai-shek ordered Hu Zongnan to fully cooperate with Erma's army to launch an attack on the People's Liberation Army in the northwest, retake Xi'an and the Guanzhong area, and make long-term preparations for restoring the party-state's foundation on the mainland.

Hu Zongnan had mixed feelings about Chiang Kai-shek's telegram. If Erma's army could really go all out, it would indeed be possible to retake the Guanzhong area, and it could also contain Peng Dehuai's army. From an emotional point of view, he would certainly be willing to retake the Guanzhong area and Xi'an, the Northwest region. He has poured his heart and soul into this piece of land for many years, and it has also achieved his reputation as the king of the Northwest. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is his second hometown.

But the reality is also cruel. As far as the current battle situation is concerned, fighting the People's Liberation Army in the Guanzhong area is no less than hitting a stone with an egg. The 19th and [-]th large corps brought by Peng Dehuai from North China, as well as the Northwest Communist Army before The Seventh Army was rushing to the northwest, and when the coalition forces of Hu Zongnan and Erma arrived, almost the Communist Army Corps from North China had also arrived. In this way, the Northwest Communist Army had an absolute advantage in strength. And the demoralized government has no chance of winning.

Hu Zongnan stated his thoughts to Chiang Kai-shek. The central meaning was that it was not a good way to send troops to fight head-on with the People's Liberation Army. The best policy was to preserve strength and act after major changes in the international situation.

It is a pity that the principal of Jiang University could not listen to Hu Zongnan's suggestion at all. Not only did he not accept the student's suggestion, but he scolded Hu Zongnan for not being able to see clearly the situation.

Hu Zongnan had no choice but to send troops north out of the Qinling Mountains to fight jointly with the Ma's army. The attack was scheduled to be launched in June.

In the war of words about how many troops can be dispatched to destroy the Northwest Communist Army, the final result of mutual compromise is that Hu Zongnan and Ma Jiajun each dispatched 10 troops, and a total of more than 20 troops attacked the Northwest Communist Army. The communist army drove out.

Two 10,000+ Huma coalition forces rushed over like mad dogs, and the crisis came again. Before the two corps in North China arrived, there were only 10,000+ people in one field. Reckless?Of course, you can't act recklessly when you can't match the enemy's strength. Mr. Peng's order to all the troops in the field is: before the North China Corps arrives, unless they are in a very favorable position, they can temporarily not contact the enemy. The enemy has been pounced forward, you can consider giving up some places appropriately, and then look for an opportunity to wipe out the enemy.

The second order issued by Mr. Peng is to order Zhou Shidi's 61th Corps, Yang Dezhi's [-]th Corps, and Peng Shaohui's [-]th Army to speed up their march. The [-]st Army, the vanguard, must arrive before June [-]th. Fenglingdu on the north bank of the Yellow River, and then transported to Xi'an for defense.

The Independent Brigade has not gone back since it was separated from the main force of the Second Army outside Xianyang City. It’s not that they don’t want to go back, but that they really can’t march with the main force of the army. They are not at the same level. For this reason, Commander Guo Peng and Political Commissar Wang Enmao allowed the Independent Brigade to move freely, but it must not be too far away from the main force of the army, and must be within a few hours of maneuvering range of the Independent Brigade.

According to Boss Peng's order, the five armies of the first field circled the enemy again. Each army would leave as soon as it came into contact with the enemy, and retreat when it touched the enemy. After pulling it out, I didn't even let go of the gun, of course, except during training, several leaders of the Second Army believed that there was no need to use the independent brigade at the current stage when there was no tough battle. In the words of Commander Guo , It is not yet time to let the tiger go down the mountain.

When the Kuomintang troops rushed over, the independent brigade, the main brigade of the field, was once again idle. Because of this, the soldiers kept talking strangely, and some said: "What's wrong? The whole country is about to be liberated." Why don't we open up and work hard with the Kuomintang? When did our People's Liberation Army fear their Kuomintang, and when did it go, and go around in circles with the enemy."

Some soldiers said: "Hey, look at the other field armies, look at the second field, the third field, and the fourth field. I heard that the fourth field is about to reach Hunan, and the battle is really enjoyable. Take a look." We, I feel useless."

(Siye's troops were indeed approaching Hunan at that time, but it was not as smooth as the soldier said, because most of them were soldiers from the north, and it was no problem to tolerate the cold, but they were not used to the hot and humid weather in the south. The environment is not acclimatized, and the non-combat attrition of the army is huge. The main problem is diarrhea, which needs to eat a lot of garlic to solve the problem. However, the troops in the four fields are too large, and the garlic is really not enough. Later, ** who learned about the situation specially gave instructions Shino rested in place, and did not launch an attack until the weather turned cooler in September, so I won’t say much about it.)

The complaints of the soldiers were reflected in the ears of the brigade commander Li Yong and the political commissar Wang Chengde. The commanders of the two independent brigades called the cadres above the platoon to a meeting to talk about the policy, the current situation facing the enemy and ourselves, and the strategy of Boss Peng. The intention is to let everyone do ideological work for the soldiers after they go back.

At the end of the meeting, Li Yong told everyone: "Don't be in a hurry. If you want to fight, you are not afraid. As long as we are ready, there will be opportunities."

At this time, Brigadier Li also took a few people to each battalion to do ideological work one by one. The difference is that the boy Li Yuming was following Li Yong before, but now it was Li Jia. Pretty and delicate girl.

Li Jia's long handsome is indeed handsome, and because he is a scholar, his temperament is different from others. Being next to Li Yong is a beautiful scenery. Veterans are immune to such things. Traveling independently There are a lot of female soldiers in the army, and they usually watch too much, nothing special, but the new soldiers can't do it, their eyes have to look straight, it makes sense: "After serving in the army for three years, the old sow is better than Diao Chan", That's what it said.
