The beacon of youth

Chapter 455

Two days after the start of the Battle of Fumei, the Tenth Division of the Fourth Army of the People's Liberation Army guarding Luoju Town became the focus of contention between the Kuomintang and the Communist Army on the Northwest battlefield. In order to provide support for the Tenth Division, Boss Peng ordered the Second Army, which was able to move quickly in the field army, to stand alone brigade, Li Yong and Wang Chengde rushed to reinforce. "New text reading experience"

As soon as the task was conveyed, there was a buzzing sound below. They were all veterans who had fought for many years, and they understood the situation clearly. Li Jiangguo, the first battalion commander, stood up and said, "Boss Peng personally gave the order because he respected us. Why do so many troops single out our brigade for support? This explains the problem."

"That's right, it shows that our independent brigade has a very high status in the hearts of Boss Peng and the leaders of the field army, so the leaders often think of us, hehehehe." It was Wei Gang, the battalion commander of the machine gun battalion, who spoke A smug look was written all over his face.

Although these people who came to the meeting were not as proud as Wei Gang, everyone still agreed with Wei Gang's statement in their hearts. It’s awesome, see if you see it, now even the chiefs of the field army think of our independent brigade when they have something to do.

Of course, Wang Chengde can’t make everyone proud and complacent. The so-called arrogant soldiers must be defeated. As a political commissar, he should pour cold water on everyone at the right time: “It’s a good thing for the chiefs to think of us often, but it will be a bad thing if we don’t fight well.” Now, everyone hurry back and prepare, and strive to pull the troops out within 10 minutes."

The mobility of the independent brigade is very strong, and this is what Boss Peng and some leaders of Yesi value. However, the great mobility is based on a large number of cars and specialized vehicles, and it is guaranteed that these vehicles are at any time. Integrity is a very difficult issue. Fortunately, the independent brigade has already prepared. In addition to each battalion company having its own repair personnel, there is also a dedicated repair company directly under the brigade headquarters, so political commissar Wang Chengde has the confidence Order the troops to pull out within 10 minutes.

In a field headquarters, Boss Peng, who had given the order, looked at the heads of the headquarters: "Let me tell you a few, why didn't you respond when I gave the order, do you have a suggestion, okay?" It’s good, it’s not right, it’s not right, it’s okay to say it straight.”

Several chiefs laughed at the same time, and one said: "Boss, do you have any suggestions? We agree with your orders. Also, you don't even look at Lao Liu. You haven't waited to say two things before you picked up the phone." You know what it means when you say Lao Liu, and Lao Liu is an expert, even higher than the few of us who are in charge of war."

Boss Peng nodded: "Well, Lao Liu has done a good job. You put out the independent brigade to help us solve a lot of troubles. Dealing with the cavalry of the Ma family army, the defense of Xianyang, and the reinforcement of Gao Jinchun this time. Isn't it the right time, sir? Liu's suggestion is very good."

Deputy Commander Liu Jingfan shook his head: "Boss, it's not my old Liu who made the meritorious service, but the cadres and soldiers of the Independent Brigade. These little guys have also helped me a lot. I still remember when our army was short of food. When is it, they have contributed a lot, otherwise I won't be able to remember them."

As soon as Deputy Commander Liu mentioned food, Boss Peng and the other chiefs were reminded of the past years. Boss Peng said slowly: "I also remembered when you mentioned it. They used to give food when they were still in the same battalion. It is true that the army has contributed a lot in food production, and it is time to praise this army, but now is not the time, we have to finish this battle."

Boss Peng, who pondered for a while, said again: "A staff officer, inform Gao Jinchun of the [-]th Division that they must persevere, and tell him that the headquarters has sent an independent brigade of the Second Army to support them."

At the position of the [-]th Division of the People's Liberation Army in Luoju Town, the Kuomintang's continuous large-scale group charge was once again beaten down, and the soldiers also got a chance to breathe again. After a few sips of water, Master Gao seemed to calm down a little: "Correspondent, go to the regiment camps immediately to check the casualties and ammunition situation."

The correspondent turned to leave, but Master Gao ordered again: "Don't go empty-handed, bring some pots of water, at least it can solve some problems."

After more than 20 years on the battlefield, veterans know that when the battle reaches a certain point, they can have nothing to eat, and they can sting for a while without food, but it is enough to drink without water. Master Gao is concerned about the feeling of smoke in his throat I have a lot of experience, so I took every opportunity to try to get the soldiers to drink more water. Just when the correspondent turned to leave, the phone in the division headquarters rang, and the teacher Gao who answered the phone was overjoyed: "Correspondent, tell comrades, The headquarters has sent the independent brigade of the Second Army to support us, go quickly."

The Independent Brigade is a well-known unit in the old Northwest Field Army. Commander Gao Jinchun is also very aware of the combat effectiveness of this unit. As long as the Independent Brigade can arrive in time, it is very hopeful to complete the task.

At this time, the independent brigade that Commander Gao Jinchun is eager to arrive as soon as possible is marching rapidly. The distance of more than 70 kilometers, a large force of more than 1000 people, because of the bad road conditions, and Gao Xiang's heavy howitzer battalion cannot run when it is being towed It is too fast, and it will take about two hours to arrive at the maneuvering speed of the independent brigade. It's time for the whole battle plan.

Li Yong's head in the jeep was spinning at a high speed. This time the battle was different from the past, and also different from the previous Xianyang defensive battle. It would definitely be difficult, and if there was a trouble, the troops would suffer heavy casualties.

The Independent Brigade has always been used to winning battles, and the cadres and soldiers are also accustomed to it, thinking that it is nothing special, but Li Yong, the leader of the brigade, is very sober, his head is not hot, and he does not think that he is The world is invincible, this victory did not come out of thin air, there are several conditions for the independent brigade to win the battle.

The ability to maneuver quickly is only one aspect. The most important thing that determines the combat effectiveness of an army is firepower and the fighting will of the soldiers, as well as the correct strategy and tactics.

Why do you say this battle is different from the past?Because the enemy is a trapped beast under siege, he will definitely try his best to attack our army's defense line. Second, the enemy's firepower is not weaker than that of the People's Liberation Army. The three regular troops of Hu Zongnan of the Kuomintang are surrounded, not the local troops of Ma's army. There are a large number of tanks, and the terrible thing is that the enemy still has planes to help out. Although the independent brigade has Wei Gang's high-shelf machine gun air defense battalion, it has a certain air defense capability, but it is not enough to compare with the enemy's air force. Li Yong knows very well that in ground-air offensive and defensive battles, ground troops will always be in a passive position to be beaten. Before the advent of anti-aircraft missiles, this situation will not change greatly, neither anti-aircraft machine guns nor anti-aircraft artillery .

The beautiful guard company commander Li Jia sat in the same car with the brigade commander Li Yong as usual, his bulging breasts scraped against the brigade commander Li Da beside him from time to time as the car bumped, Li Jia also knew it was wrong As for the solution, the jittery jeep left her nowhere to hide, but the delicate Li Jia couldn't help herself thinking, hum, sitting with this guy is too much for him to take advantage of. Sitting in the same car with him, but, but I am the security company commander of the brigade, the security company commander appointed by the brigade party committee, it is my responsibility to protect him, how can I stay too far away from this guy?

I don't know if it's the responsibility, or Li Jia deliberately excused herself. Anyway, the matter of not sitting in the same car with the brigade commander is just to think about whether we should be together or not.

No one else knows what is on Li Jia's mind, but Li Yong, who is constantly planning to transform with a map in his hand, doesn't care about looking at beautiful women at all, what should I do?How can we do our best to complete the tasks assigned by the superiors without causing too much loss to the troops.

In Li Yong's continuous pondering, the troops were getting closer and closer to Luoju Town, and also closer to the focus area where the enemy and our armies competed.

Hu Zongnan, the Northwest King of the Kuomintang, is very aware of the current situation. This guy once said, why does the principal still think highly of me?That's because I still have an army in my hands, and 10,000+ well-equipped regular troops.But once the last family property in his hands is gone, he, the first-year student of Huangpu, the favorite general of Chairman Jiang, will no longer be the king of the Northwest. Now, don't be afraid of burning out.

Under Hu Zongnan's strict order, the Kuomintang troops (38th, 65th, and 119th armies) in the encirclement of the People's Liberation Army once again launched a large-scale offensive. Aircraft, artillery, tanks, and all available heavy equipment were used. The position was once again turned into a sea of ​​flames.

Amidst the charge of enemy tanks, the bombardment of heavy artillery, and the howling of planes, the cadres and soldiers of the [-]th Division of the People's Liberation Army fought desperately with the enemy with the weapons and equipment they had in hand. Automatic agents, battalion-level commanders have already been to the front line in person, and even the division commander Gao Jinchun ran back and forth on the front line with a submachine gun.

Commander Gao, a commander from the old Red Army, wants to use his actions to tell the soldiers that your division commander is with you and wants to break through the positions of our Tenth Division?Unless it's stepping over our dead bodies.

The continuous fighting became more and more fierce. Under the frenzied attack of the enemy, the casualties of the Tenth Division, whose personnel and firepower were at an extremely disadvantaged environment, were also increasing.

The Tenth Division is an old unit of the People's Liberation Army. It is an old unit with a glorious fighting history. Needless to say, the fighting will of the soldiers is unmatched by anyone, but the weapons are too bad.

Thank you for your concern, the old guys. I just came back from other places, and I didn’t take any short vacations at all. I envy everyone.
