The beacon of youth

Chapter 503 The Happy Battle of Lanzhou, Commander Luo

Boss Peng's decision made Commander Luo Yuanfa very happy, because he couldn't help but be unhappy. Commander Luo is an old man in the Northwest Field Army, and he knows exactly what kind of army the ** Brigade is. <The ** brigade is very good, not to mention the commanders at all levels, even an ordinary soldier is so arrogant that he doesn't look down on others. The Six Armies have had several exchanges, or fights, but, again, the ** Lu Niu is a powerful cow, but they are really good at fighting. Almost every battle is impressive. There are four For the sake of showing off, if the headquarters transferred such a force, the odds of the Sixth Army's attack on the camp leader would of course be greater.

Seeing Commander Luo Yuanfa's expression, Boss Peng also asked a little amusedly: "I heard that your Sixth Army and the ** Brigade have a lot of dealings, and there was some friction because of some equipment issue. Is the situation true?"

"There have been a few times, the boys in the ** brigade are not easy to fool, especially their brigade commander Li Yong, this guy dared to challenge me, the commander of the column, when he was still a battalion commander and regimental commander. It was even more so when we fought against Xi'an this time. According to the arrangement of the wild division, our Sixth Army should have advanced in Xi'an, and the Second Army attacked Xianyang. After Guo Peng and Wang Enmao took down Xianyang, they released their ** brigade. The infantry of our Sixth Army marched on two tui, and they couldn't handle the cars and tanks of the ** brigade. Isn't that right? We were a step too late. Let them advance into Xi'an City, not only received the welcome of the people in the city, but also snatched a tank regiment from the Kuomintang that did not run away. Later I heard that the ** brigade reorganized this tank regiment into a battalion of their brigade, because of this , made one of my regiment leaders vomit blood, boss, how brave do you think these guys are!! The dogs stretched out their paws and slammed everywhere, but the ** brigade did not help us less, at the earliest We have trained car drivers, and we have cooperated with our teaching brigade when we were outside Baoji City, by the way, Li Yong is very familiar with our Sixth Army Commander Chen Haihan, and these two people have a very good temper."

Commander Luo Yuanfa's introduction swept away the dull atmosphere in the field army headquarters. Several leaders, including Mr. Peng, laughed. Deputy Commander Liu Jingfan said with a smile: "Hey, Mr. Luo, what Commander Luo said I also know this, the current ** brigade is amazing, I heard that there are more than 100 tanks and armored vehicles alone, even I want to go and have a look."

"Yes, the ** brigade is amazing. It took them just over two years to grow from a special agent company with dozens of people to a division-level combat force with more than 1 people. I understand, but this also shows that our People's Liberation Army is invincible. How many people did we have when the Long March first arrived in northern Shaanxi? We only had tens of thousands of people, how is it now? The total strength of our several field armies has reached several hundred Wan, ** said to destroy 500 enemy brigades, and the goal of building an army of [-] million has become a reality. I have grown my wings and sent the ** brigade to your six armies. I hope you can take down the enemy's camp and lead in one fell swoop. Position, open the southern gate of Lanzhou. The Central Army of the Kuomintang cannot stop us, and neither can the Qingma Army. Our army will continue to march westward to the far frontiers of our motherland. Our road is still long. Luo Yuanfa, Did you hear clearly?" Boss Peng's tone became higher and higher, and finally he shouted.

What else can I say? Commander Luo Yuanfa issued a military order at the headquarters of the field army. If he does not take down the camp leader, he will not come back to see the leaders.

An order was placed in front of Li Yong, the brigade commander of the ** brigade, and Wang Chengde, the political commissar. It was just sent by Li Jia, the company commander of the guard company. The specific task was assigned by Commander Luo Yuanfa of the Sixth Army.

The meaning of the order can be understood at a glance. The headquarters transferred the ** brigade, a reserve team, to the Sixth Army, and the Sixth Army was responsible for attacking the Qingma Army's most fortified camp and collar positions. This shows that ** The brigade rushed to catch up, and the fight to Lanzhou was sure to catch up.

Let's go, now that the order has arrived, don't sleep in the garrison. Li Yong and Wang Chengde get up and report to the military headquarters of the Sixth Army. The brothers' troops have been busy in recent days. In the big drama, the impatient new fighters went around to ask why our ** brigade has not yet dispatched.

The explanation of the veterans is very simple. Do you know what a reserve team is?Can we use our ** brigade before the critical moment?Don't worry, the good show is in the future, and there will be times when our ** brigade will shine.

I heard that when the headquarters strengthened it and gave it to the Sixth Army, some people still worriedly asked Li Yong: "Brigade Commander, we have often had trouble with the Sixth Army. When the time comes, the Sixth Army will not embarrass our ** brigade??"

Political commissar Wang Chengde answered these soldiers with some annoyance: "Commander Luo Yuanfa of the Sixth Army is an old revolutionary who has experienced battles and has a high level of consciousness. He won't pay attention to such small things. You guys think too much. , and his mind is too small, and he underestimates the people of the Sixth Army."

The headquarters of the Sixth Army was not too far from the camp where the troops were about to attack. By the time Li Yong and Wang Chengde arrived, the headquarters of the Sixth Army was already full of commanders at all levels who had come to the meeting.

A burst of warm applause made Li Yong and Wang Chengde a little unnatural. Commander Luo Yuanfa smiled and said, "Welcome Brigadier Commander Li and Political Commissar Wang. This welcome ceremony was not organized by me, the commander, but by these guys. Today we will be stirring horse spoons together, eating in a pot, it is better to get familiar with it first, and then Commander Luo will introduce to Li Yong and Wang Chengde the commanders above the regiment who came to the meeting."

Don't look at the conflicts in the past, but that was before, and now they are saluting next to each other. All commanders above the Sixth Army Division and above both greet the commander. Congratulations, because Li Yong and Wang Chengde are really too young, it is right to call their heads in front of these veterans, not to mention commanders at the division level, even those commanders at the regiment level are much older than the two of them up.

Li Yong and Wang Chengde have acquaintances in the Sixth Army. Commander Chen Haihan and several regiment leaders and political commissars under him were there. When Commander Luo Yuanfa introduced them, Commander Chen Haihan pulled Li Yong over. , pressed on a chair beside him and said: "Commander, you don't need to introduce, I know how many vellus hairs this kid has on his body, this time our Sixth Army has picked up a treasure, and they are here Traveling can solve big problems.”

The Army Headquarters of the Sixth Army became lively, and Master Chen Haihan expressed the thoughts of the commanders who came to the meeting. Although the Sixth Army's first attack on the camp leader's position failed, there were problems of one kind or another, but the lack of artillery fire in the army was also a problem. A situation that cannot be ignored is precisely for this reason. When Commander Luo Yuanfa raised the issue of insufficient artillery fire with Boss Peng, Boss Peng decided to strengthen the ** brigade to the Sixth Army. We know very well that with a lot of enhanced artillery fire, the battle will of course be easier to fight.

After a brief welcome ceremony, the meeting continued, and the ** brigade was once again retained as a reserve team in the army by Commander Luo Yuanfa of the Sixth Army. In fact, this is also easy to explain. The task, it is impossible for the newly arrived ** Brigade to do the main attack. However, Commander Luo Yuanfa finally decided that the ** Brigade will take out the artillery battalion to participate in the attack. Commander of the Artillery Battalion.

Why this decision?The reason is also very simple. First of all, the artillery firepower of the Sixth Army has only dozens of artillery pieces, which is not as powerful as the artillery battalion of the ** Brigade, and the training is even worse. Second, Gao Xiang, the artillery battalion commander of the ** Brigade A well-known figure, Commander Luo Yuanfa also knows that he once commanded the artillery of the second column and the whole column. With such a good artillery commander, why not use it? With the above reasons, Commander Luo made up his mind to send The artillery was handed over to Gao Xiang to command.

The Artillery Battalion of the ** Brigade with more than 100 artillery pieces is a giant, and the size of the troops is larger than that of an ordinary artillery regiment. After receiving the order, Gao Xiang led his people to observe the terrain and study the distribution of firepower non-stop.

Gao Xiang's behavior made the people in the ** brigade very envious. They said strange things all at once. Li Jiangguo, the first battalion commander, liked to be lively, and now he had more to say, saying that Gao Xiang will walk in the future You have to keep looking at the sky, you can't even see the rocks and landmines under your feet, and the few of us are even more incomparable. If it's really not possible, when we meet again, everyone will call the chief! !Anyway, he is also a senior commander.

Even Ma Changsheng, the commander of the third battalion who didn't talk too much, murmured together: "Gao Xiang is lucky, why do good things always happen to him, God is so unreasonable."

Political commissar Wang Chengde noticed the nonsense words of the soldiers. Wang Chengde angrily took Li Jiangguo, the commander of the first battalion, and Ma Chengsheng, the commander of the third battalion, to the brigade for a scolding. , but your Majesty is still planning to play tricks on Gao Xiang, who has a big face, after the war.

After careful research, Commander Luo Yuanfa of the Sixth Army decided to use part of the [-]th Division to capture Gouwa Mountain on the left side of the camp, and use part of the [-]th Division to attack Majia Mountain on the right. , Attacking the enemy's main camp leader, the ** brigade is the reserve team of the [-]th Division of the main attacking force... q! .
