The beacon of youth

In the Korean battlefield, the so-called "magnetic tactics" or "elastic tactics" of the U.S. military were aimed at the weaknesses of our army. Although the volunteers also knew what the enemy thought and knew the enemy's methods, they were limited by the technology at the time. There is still no way to crack the conditions, and there is no way to do it. This is the embodiment of the great difference in absolute strength.

Our soldiers are very good and brave. They use their feet to race against the enemy's car wheels. The attack distance in seven days can reach more than 200 kilometers. This is already the limit of infantry attack on foot, but it will not work anymore. Ammunition and physical strength have been exhausted, while the U.S. military is fully mechanized, and the counterattack after seven days is very fierce. Our army has no choice but to give up the advantages obtained by consuming a lot of manpower and material resources in the early stage.

This is also the reason why we had to retreat after successfully attacking Seoul. This is the first and last time in the modern history of our army to capture the capital of another country, which is very commemorative.

In order to allow the fatigued main force to withdraw smoothly, the Volunteers placed some small troops on the attack line of the U.S. Army to fight against them. These small troops fought fiercely every time for the safety of the large troops, and there were very few survivors. .

This is very painful, just like a person who knows very well what to do to make money and what to do, but he just can’t afford the capital and watches the opportunities go away, so that our army rarely launched wars in the later period of the Korean War. A large-scale offensive campaign, and the losses of the [-]th Division of the [-]th Army were largely due to the enemy's magnetic tactics.

Li Yong talked a lot, and I don't know how much these chiefs can listen to, but these chiefs are smart people with exquisite thoughts, so they should still be able to inspire.

Commander Wang Zhen's face was about to burst into laughter, and he shouted at these senior commanders: "How about it? This is my soldier, my Wang Huzi's soldier, what is it to be a brigade commander!! Don't look at his young age, But you are qualified to be an army commander or a commander. You have to be careful in the future. I will suggest to Boss Peng and Boss He that you should be withdrawn if you don’t fight well. .”

Commander Wang was happy, but the other chiefs curled their lips, and some said: "Look, Wang Huzi is happy. A good soldier has come out and wants to withdraw us. This guy is unreasonable." gone?"

It was almost noon when we finished the tank battalion tour. Of course, the chiefs should not be allowed to go back hungry. When Li Jia and the soldiers from the guard company brought the food, the chiefs were surprised again. I have also heard that the food in the Independent Brigade is good, and the lightly wounded do not like to go to the field hospital behind. Chief, isn’t the food prepared for us specially prepared? Can the soldiers eat it so well?”

Someone next to him introduced that this is Commander Wei Jiewei of our 61st Army. Li Yong understood immediately after hearing this that this is the rank of Wang Chenghan, the commander of the [-]st Division, and he will also be a leader in the Korean battlefield more than a year later.

When I was defending Xianyang, I became good friends with Wang Chenghan, the commander of the [-]st Division. Of course, the head of my good friend is also my head: "Reporting to the head, the standard of food for our brigade is the same, but today everyone Each of the chiefs prepared an extra can, if the chiefs don’t believe it, they can go to each battalion to have a look.”

"Okay, Lao Wei, why don't you eat it quickly? You can't eat canned beef for every meal. The food standard of the Independent Brigade is famous in our old Northwest Field Army. You will know it later." Commander of the Old Northwest Field Army.

At this time, Commander Yang Dezhi asked again: "Comrade Li Yong, I have heard you talk so much about war and logistics issues. How do you solve the logistics support of your brigade?"

Li Yong: "There is a supply platoon in the battalion, and a supply battalion in the brigade. Each basic combat battalion of our brigade has more than 1000 people, but this is not the largest. The largest is our supply unit. The total supply battalion of our brigade With more than 2000 troops, it is the largest battalion-level unit in the entire brigade. I dare not say that there are too many, but with our brigade’s logistics supply capabilities, we can definitely ensure that our brigade will not lack food and ammunition during the nine-day attack.”

The commanders at the scene were a little moved. They were all sensible people who had fought for more than [-] years, and they knew what Li Yong meant by ensuring that the troops had no shortage of food and ammunition during the nine-day continuous attack.

Insufficient supply of food and ammunition has always been the weakness of the People's Liberation Army. This has been the case since the Red Army period. It has not been completely resolved until the Liberation War. Except for the four wilds, good logistics support is a very important reason for the strong combat effectiveness of the four wilds. These shortcomings have always relied on soldiers. They overcame it with their tenacious fighting will.

If there are sufficient logistical supplies as support, the combat effectiveness of the troops will be improved by leaps and bounds. This is a well-understood truth.

The leaders all left after lunch. The Independent Brigade has become famous this time. The entire First Field Army, no matter if they are newcomers or have been there before, whether they are from North China or Northwest China, they all know the First Corps and the Second Army. There is an independent brigade, this independent brigade is amazing, the weapons and equipment are good, the spirit of the soldiers is good, the food is good, everything is good anyway, the little brigade commander is also very good, and there is something in his head.

After seeing off the gods from all walks of life, Li Yong was able to relax a little bit. He threw his feet on the table and sat there sighing and muttering: "Oh, I'm exhausted. Look at this throat, it's almost smoking."

Li Jia, the company commander of the guard company, was once again conquered by Li Yong's performance today. The brigade commander has too many secrets. Before, he thought he knew a lot of truths that he couldn't explain. Today, I saw it again. Even so many secrets The brigade chief nodded straightly at what the brigade commander said, which shows that the brigade commander is indeed capable, and he is really a very mysterious guy. Li Jia's delicate heartstrings were once again inadvertently plucked by the brigade commander.

Just as the First Field Army was preparing to compete with the Kuomintang army, Hu Zongnan and the Allied Forces of the Two Horses in the Northwest Battlefield put on a strange formation.

After the enemy failed to attack Xianyang and Xi'an, Hu Zongnan gathered the main force of his central army in the north and south areas of the Weihe River, and the main forces of the Qing and Ning horses gathered in Qianxian County and Liquan area under the orders of Ma Bufang and Ma Jiyuan. They are called **, but they all have their own command systems, and they don't buy into each other. Under the pressure of the field, the Hu and Ma armies put on a posture that can cooperate with each other and escape separately.

Boss Peng and the chiefs of Yiye all smiled when they saw the formation put up by the enemy. The battle is imminent, but they seem to be at odds with each other, and they are wary of each other. Such opponents make people happy.

Both Hu Zongnan and the Allied Forces of the Two Horses wanted to sacrifice their opponents to fight head-on with the People's Liberation Army, while preserving their own strength. This provided favorable conditions for our army to take advantage of the enemy's contradictions and annihilate the enemy one by one. What the field army has to do now is to select two groups of enemies, Who did they attack.

Just when our army in the northwest was preparing to attack the enemy, the Kuomintang was panicked after learning that our two large corps from North China had entered Shaanxi and had arrived at the predetermined location. Hastily retreated to the Linyou mountain area, trying to use this as a maneuvering position to assist Hu Zongnan's Central Army when it was favorable, and retreat to the Pingliang area when it was unfavorable. Hu Zongnan's main force was assembled on both sides of the Weihe River in Fufeng and Meixian areas, with five armies for group deployment, the purpose of which was to facilitate both mobility and persistence.

After seeing it through, the deployment of Hu Zongnan and Erma's troops is a strategy that can fight together and preserve their respective strengths. Both the Central Army and the Ma's Army have the mentality of fighting if they can, and running if they can't fight. The mentality of fighting to the death with the People's Liberation Army.

After more than two years of heavy blows by the Northwest Field Army, Hu Zongnan no longer has the spirit of the Northwest King. He used to think about how to fight the People's Liberation Army, but now he is trying to maintain the status quo and stick to it for a while to see the current situation. How to develop, what to wait for the outbreak of the Third World War, the troops in this guy's hands were constantly wiped out by the Northwest Field Army, and they were constantly reorganized. By the middle of 10,000, the main force still had 20+ troops, and it was still one Not a small force, and the army of Qing and Ning Erma is close to [-]. If they can really unite together, they may not be unable to fight the People's Liberation Army.

But the contradictions between these generals are deep-rooted, and there is no way to completely integrate the two armies. It is too difficult to really fight together. This gives the First Field Army assembled in the northwest an excellent opportunity to choose two groups The enemy strikes at will, and the initiative on the battlefield is completely in the hands of the People's Liberation Army.

In July of [-], the weather in the ancient city of Xi'an was so sultry and hot that people couldn't breathe. The windows of a large meeting room were all opened, but the gusts of wind blowing in were also scorching hot, which didn't make the people in the room feel uncomfortable. To the slightest bit of coolness.

Boss Peng, who was in a meeting, wiped the sweat off his face, raised his voice and said: "Comrades, Hu Zongnan and Er Ma have put up two different formations and are waiting for us to speak. What we have to do now is to eat that one first." The main force of Qing and Ning's two horses is mainly cavalry, their forces are scattered, and their front is too wide. Although they are easy to defeat, they are not easy to gather and annihilate. Hu Zongnan's central army is equipped with five armies, and its depth is weak. Although the horses can support the north and the south, the gap in the middle is too large, which is very convenient for our army to encircle the enemy's flanks. To put it bluntly, the enemy does not really want to fight together.
