The beacon of youth

Chapter 466 Sweeping all the way

The forward independent brigade of the First Corps of the People's Liberation Army rushed to Binxian County, which was still under the control of the KMT's local security regiment, during the rapid march. The tank battalion only fired a single shot and scared the entire Binxian security regiment out of the city and surrendered. 3∴35686688

On July 24th, Bin County was liberated. After the troops entered the city, they immediately dispatched a small group of soldiers to maintain order and publicize the policies of the party and the army to the common people. ,do not be afraid.

The commanders from the Laoba Road are very experienced in doing such things, such as Wang Huhu, the commander of the Fifth Battalion, Ning Jinshan, the commander of the Fourth Battalion, and He Cuihua, the instructor of the Supply Battalion, etc. Everyone is very capable of doing mass work.

With the efforts of these people, it didn't take long for the entire Bin County to return to its previous state, and the common people also understood that although the costumes of the troops who came were a bit weird, all of them had iron guys on their heads and leather shoes under their feet. , The equipment and clothes are also somewhat different from the previous Eighth Route Army, but from the point of view of style, it must be the Eighth Route Army's troops. There is nothing terrible about the old Eighth Route Army.

Wang Chengde, the political commissar, required all battalions and companies under his command to strictly enforce discipline and strictly prohibit disturbing the people. It is fine to live in the homes of ordinary people, but the yard must be cleaned, the water tank must be filled with water, and the ordinary people’s share must be brought out when cooking. If you can't do it, you will be locked up as a violation of discipline.

In fact, it doesn’t matter whether the political commissar’s order is given or not. Helping the common people has become a habit of the army, and they are very conscious when doing it. The soldiers are busy and sweaty.

The tank battalion, which is mostly composed of new liberation fighters, was surprised again. They had never done such a thing when they were soldiers in the Kuomintang army. Today is another experience where there are troops helping ordinary people to work. Under the leadership of the instructor Li Yuming, the soldiers all experienced the feeling of being an old eighth road. Afterwards, these new liberation fighters came to Li Yuming one after another and told their instructors how they felt. Unexpectedly, the feeling of being welcomed by the people is It's so good, surrounded by adults and children, I felt a sense of accomplishment at that time, just like being a hero.

After the local work was stabilized, Li Yong asked Li Jia, the company commander of the guard, to immediately send a report to the Party Committee of the Second Army and the First Corps: "Our department, the Independent Brigade recaptured Binxian County at noon on the 24th, captured more than [-] enemies, and the seizure is being counted. Device: no ads, full text, more "

That night, the troops camped in Binxian County. They had been fighting continuously for a long time. After the battle of Fumei, the troops had not been rested. Therefore, Li Yong ordered the troops to take the time to rest and recover their strength.

The Kuomintang security regiment in Binxian County doesn’t have any impressive weapons. Most of the more than 500 people are armed with messy old-fashioned rifles. The whole regiment only has two Czech rifles and one crooked handle, which are considered heavy weapons. The commotion made He Cuihua not even in the mood to confiscate the weapons, not to mention He Cuihua, and even Battalion Commander Sun Quanhou saw this pile of rags and went straight to the audit. No matter what, these rags were also weapons, so they couldn’t be confiscated. However, how to deal with the confiscation is tingling. Later, Brigadier Li Da gave an idea to keep it for now. After Bin County is liberated, we will definitely form our own militia team. It is okay to leave these weapons to the militia for training. Yet.

But this security group is not without all good things. The combat effectiveness of the local security group is not very good, but it has a lot of money. Turtle soldiers, took out all valuables, and shot those who dared to hide and not report. Li Yong didn't think there was anything wrong with confiscating these money. As long as it can improve the combat effectiveness of the troops, everything is worth it.

The soldiers of the security regiment who surrendered were a little dumbfounded. Didn't they say that the troops of the Eighth Route Army did not search for the prisoners' money?Why is this group of Eighth Route Army different from other Eighth Route Army?But no matter how you think about it, the gun barrel on the gun is not a joke. Looking at the eyes of these murderous gods, it means that if you shoot, you will shoot.

Political commissar Wang Chengde reminded Li Yong whether this was too much, and Li Yong analyzed it bit by bit with Wang Chengde. In the future, troops like the Independent Brigade will often be used by the superiors alone, and they will often carry out independent combat missions. , Therefore, it is necessary to accumulate more money.

There are still some things that Li Yong didn’t say. When the troops arrive in ethnic minority areas, it will be difficult to raise food, and the supplies in the rear may not be timely, and the PLA troops can’t go around to grab them. At that time, spending money to buy may be the only option. , "Three Disciplines, Eight Points of Attention", there is such a thing, fair trading is not a violation of discipline.

Early the next morning, the soldiers of the Independent Brigade, who had slept all night, set off. Except for some food they needed, most of the food in the Kuomintang warehouse in Binxian County remained untouched. Li Yong and Wang Chengde had similar ideas, and they followed up There are too many people in the large army, and the food needed is an astronomical figure every day. People eat horse chews, which is enough for the chiefs to have a headache. Although there is not much food in Bin County, it can also solve the urgent need.

On July 25, an independent brigade captured Lingtai, Changwu on July 26, and Jingchuan and Zhengning on July 27.

The Independent Brigade swept across the past, with frequent success reports. The enemy they encountered was invincible, and the direction of the troops was like entering no man's land. There is no way to fight against the independent brigade of the People's Liberation Army. Everywhere Li Yong goes, he orders the troops to bombard them with artillery fire, shoot a rapid shot, and then order the enemy to shoot and surrender.

Brigadier Li Da's method has a deterrent nature, and the reason he said is also very simple. Although it is simple, it is very effective. First scare the opponent's birds out, and then let them surrender. This way things will be much easier.

On the afternoon of the 27th, Li Yong stood in a big house built of bricks and tiles in Zhengning County and said to Li Jia: "Send a report to the superior: "Our department occupied Zhengning County on the afternoon of the 27th, and we are going to rest for one night. Attack Ning County and Long County early in the morning, and ask our department for instructions."

At the headquarters of the First Corps, Commander Wang Zhen took a telegram and shouted: "Hey, did you guys see it? If we continue like this, we will have nothing to do in front of us. They are still asking for instructions. You Tell me how to call back."

One of the chiefs took a look at the telegram and said, "Huzi, the independent brigade is rushing too fast. They should be ordered to stop temporarily, and wait for our main force to get a little closer before moving, so as to prevent the enemy from biting back."

Commander Wang shook his head and replied: "I understand what you mean. I'm afraid that it would be dangerous for them to go deep alone. I don't think so. Li Yong and Wang Chengde of the Independent Brigade are not fools, especially Li Yong, who is very shrewd. The enemy wants to It is impossible for him to be fooled, so the call back said, act according to the camera, handle it properly, not force it, and if the enemy counterattacks, you can quickly move closer to the main force."

On July 28th, a field vanguard force and the Second Army Independent Brigade captured Ningxian County under the cover of powerful artillery fire, and then used their powerful assault capabilities to occupy Longxian County in the evening without stopping.

They went down to two cities within one day, and the attack speed of the Independent Brigade was astonishingly fast. Because they had a good mass base, they were welcomed by the common people wherever they went.

The soldiers of the independent brigade were so awesome that they were so tall and tall. They won battles all the way and the confidence of the troops swelled to the peak.

Li Jiangguo, the commander of the first battalion, sat in the car while marching and chatted with the soldiers beside him: "You know, what is a heroic army? Ours is called a heroic army. You boys are all ready, give me a clean uniform. , don’t lose face when the common people welcome you.”

The soldiers knew that it was their battalion commander who was in such a good mood that he said that, and a clever head said: "Battle commander, it's okay now, the Kuomintang surrendered as soon as it was beaten, tell us about our brigade What was it like when it was established?"

Once Li Jiangguo's chatterbox was opened, he couldn't hold back. The sky is far and wide, clouds and mountains are shrouded in mist, and the fighters are surprised and deceitful. Anyway, it is his heroic deeds. The new soldiers are turned away by what he said, while the old soldiers He was secretly laughing from the sidelines. All the veterans knew that sometimes the deeds that the battalion commander said were not all his own, but the stories of everyone's heroes were told together.

The soldiers of the Independent Brigade are in a good mood, but not everyone is so happy. In Lanzhou, the official residence of the Northwest Military and Political Officer of the Kuomintang, the highest commander of the Qingma Army, and the great warlord of Qinghai, Ma Bufang, walked back and forth in his conference room. Ma Bufang's ashen-faced face made a large group of aides and councilors sitting on the side dare not take a breath.

After a long time, an officer broke the silence: "Commander, the Communist Army's vanguard troops occupied Long County yesterday afternoon. According to our intelligence, the Communist Army's advancing speed is very fast. Incredibly good."

Compared with a large group of officers wearing pen ting military uniforms, Ma Bufang, the supreme ruler of the Qingma Army, did not wear military uniforms, but a light blue robe, and his slender eyes shone coldly. According to people familiar with the situation, Ma Bufang learned this habit from Chiang Kai-shek. The reason is that leaders don't have to wear military uniforms all day long. Wearing military uniforms is a matter for soldiers.

"I didn't expect that a group of poor people who came from mud tui could achieve such a great climate. It's really 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi."

Ma Bufang, who paused for a while, continued: "Everyone, everyone must build up confidence. We are not without opportunities. It is too early to say that we have lost. The main force of our Qingma Army is still there, and the troops are still there. Everything, take out my "Guidance Plan for the Battle of Guanshan" and read it to everyone."

Thank you old guys for your rewards, because of the slow update, I am a little embarrassed.
