Chapter 3: Making a Choice
Since the Changchun Uprising, the 60th Army participated in the Huaihai Campaign, and contributed to the liberation of Sichuan, killing more than 10,000 nationalists and party troops in Sichuan, and capturing more than 8,000 people. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Not only that, but this time, when it decided to resist US aggression and aid Korea, it also chose the 50th Army to participate in the war, and not only that, but the central government still gave great trust to this unit, which was 80% of the original officers of the 60th Army and the 60th Army.
Zeng Zesheng is a veteran, and he did not deal with the Americans when he was in southern Yunnan, so he has always had his own views on the military technology of the Americans, and soon he put forward his own suggestion, that is, fighting the Americans is not a civil war, so he needs to bring soldiers with real combat effectiveness, only in this way can he effectively avoid casualties and play the prestige of the 50th Army!
To tell the truth, after the uprising of the 50th Army, the sequence of the PLA was not discriminated against or looked down upon, and the PLA showed great tolerance for them, but the 50th Army was holding its breath, what kind of anger?
That is, they still want to become elite, since the formation of the Yunnan army, has been unique in the Chinese army, from the elite of the Yunnan army to the strength of the country, although these are gradually forgotten, but they have not forgotten, he also wants to become the elite, not a nameless submerged in the historical trend of the army.
Similarly, although the 50th Army has been tolerated, it is certain that many troops are not so optimistic about Zeng Zesheng's army, after all, the Dian Army, which blew into the sky during the civil war, had almost no decent resistance, and many strategies were nothing more than nesting on their own defense lines to protect themselves, so many troops did not feel that Zeng Zesheng's 50th Army was combative.
It is precisely from this point of view that Zeng Zesheng also decided that he must fight a few beautiful battles this time to resist US aggression and aid Korea, so that the fraternal troops can see that they are not vegetarians.
North Korea, at this time the United Nations forces have entered North Korea in a mighty way, under the so-called Christmas offensive, the American people are like a rainbow, in the joint operation of tanks and combat power all the way to the wild, according to this situation development, soon the situation in North Korea will be settled!
But they ignored two countries, the Soviet Union and China, as the world's two largest socialist countries, the Soviet Union was the only country that could compete with the United States at that time, but China was obviously not good, our equipment was not standardized, and the weapons made by all countries were still the biggest phenomenon in the army. Not only that, we did not have a strong navy and air force at that time, which means that only the army can really be the main force in the hands of our country!
North Korea borders the northeast of our country, in ancient times it has always been a vassal state of our country, Emperor Yang of Sui went on an expedition to Goryeo, Tang Taizong was also like this, when the Ming Dynasty Toyotomi Hideyoshi invaded, the Ming Dynasty also sent troops to resist US aggression and aid Korea, the same Sino-Japanese War was also implicated because of the situation in Korea, why did our country regard the position of North Korea as so important in all dynasties?
The Sui Dynasty and the Han Dynasty do not have much, but from the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the connection between the countries of the world has gradually strengthened, and we have a new understanding of the strategic position of Korea, they are the northeast gate of our country, which is equivalent to our doorstep, and the past dynasties are also vassal states, so when the Ming Dynasty sent 200,000 troops to the Japanese, the Ming army would send troops to attack Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and we won this battle, that is, the Qing government was weak, and we also knew the strategic position of Korea, This is why the First Sino-Japanese naval battle took place, so the United Nations forces led by the United States are tantamount to provoking our country by doing so at our doorstep.
The same such move also threatened the Soviet Union, but the Soviet Union did not want to directly send troops to intervene, and the same Americans were also afraid of the Soviet Union's involvement, so it was very likely that a new world war would be triggered by the collision of the two superpowers. It is equivalent to us selling it from them at our expense, and Lao Maozi is indeed not a thing.
Japan's movements, an exclusive landline, under the escort of fighter jets, landed in Tokyo, Japan, and soon it was surrounded by dense reporters, MacArthur hung his iconic pipe, and walked down the spiral ladder with a proud face, and soon he was surrounded by reporters from all over the world, MacArthur smiled proudly at the camera, and also put on a few good poses for reporters to better photograph his majestic posture.
"General, I heard that you proposed the Christmas Offensive, do you mean that the Korean War situation will end before Christmas?" A reporter asked.
"Yes, we have made absolute progress, and soon our troops will be able to drive to the Yalu River to completely solve the North Korean problem and let them spend Christmas on the Yalu River!" MacArthur smirked.
"I heard that China has raised objections in this regard, and even strong rhetoric, so Your Excellency, General, do you think China will send troops to intervene? What if they send troops? The reporter asked again.
MacArthur smiled contemptuously and took a slow puff of his pipe before he spoke: "No, with such a strong military as ours, anyone who dares to send troops to intervene is asking for their own suffering, and our troops will blow their butts with artillery!" ā
"Assuming that China sends troops, how are the generals going to respond?"
MacArthur shook his fist at this question, and the meaning could not be clearer...
In the same way, all the departments in the country are actively preparing, the departments are beginning to assemble, the reorganization of the 50th Army is also proceeding rapidly, Zeng Zesheng mercilessly cut down many troops that do not have much combat effectiveness and began to slim down, and there are tens of thousands of troops that were announced to be brushed down at night alone, in the face of these soldiers' sincere requests, Zeng Zesheng only said two sentences: "You are the party's troops, and you must obey the party's arrangements and leadership." I am responsible for you, for your safety, for your family, and it is my dereliction of duty to take you up! ā
Soon, the 148th Division, the 149th Division, the 150th Division, and the 30,000-man Division were also ready to follow the order and go to the front at any time after being slimmed.
Kunming, Chen Liang and Zhao Jianying also packed their own packages and prepared to rush to Hunan by train to join the 50th Army, Lu Hai at home looked at Wen Juan who was eating, and had mixed feelings in his heart, fighting for the country, it was originally Lu Hai's creed, and this operation was a foreign war, outside the enemy and the country, he knew the equipment level of the US army, and he also knew that this battle was not a slogan that could defeat them by fearless charge, he knew where his brothers would encounter something, but what if he sacrificed Wen Juan?
Eight years of anti-Japanese war, three years of civil war, he has participated in countless battles and wandered on the line of life and death countless times, for the first time he has a feeling of fear of death, he is afraid that he is really dead, Wen Juan will be lonely and helpless in this world like him, but if he doesn't go, he can't get over it in his heart, and he will be entangled and uncomfortable for a while.
"Daddy, I'm done!" Wen Juan put down the dishes and chopsticks and said.
Seeing this, Lu Hai smiled and said, "Then go and do your homework, and call me when you're done!" ā
"Hmm!"
At this time, Chen Liang and Zhao Weiguo walked in with their backpacks, Lu Hai saw that the two of them suddenly felt a little impulsive, Chen Liang and the others first saluted Lu Hai, and in the face of the two standard military salutes, Lu Hai's hands trembled a little, but after a while, they also raised their hands to return the salute.
"We're going to leave soon, we won't be reluctant if you don't go, take care of my goddaughter, if we can come back, we must buy a good dowry for our goddaughter!" Chen Liang said.
"Stay safe! I'm waiting for you to come back! Lu Hai said.
At this time, Wen Juan ran out, Chen Liang hugged Wen Juan and said: "Wen Juan, godfather is going out to fight bad guys, you have to be obedient at home, kiss your godfather." ā
Wen Juan obediently kissed Chen Liang on the face, took out another bag of candy, and then said, "Okay, godfather is leaving, remember to be obedient!" ā
"Hmm!"
Putting down Wen Juan, Chen Liang immediately turned around and was about to leave, but Lu Hai said suddenly: "Wait a minute! ā
"What's wrong?" Chen Liang turned around and said.
"Stay safe and take care!"
"Well, you too." Chen Liang turned around and walked out with Zhao Weiguo, after dinner, did his homework and lay on the bed, Lu Hai fell asleep with Wen Juan in his arms, but Wen Juan didn't have the slightest intention of sleeping, she was playing, and after a while, she touched the stubble that Lu Hai had grown and giggled, Lu Hai said unconsciously: "Don't make trouble, I have to go to class tomorrow!" ā
"Dad, why don't you go and fight the bad guys?" Wen Juan asked.
"Dad is gone, what are you going to do?" Lu Hai smiled faintly.
"I've grown up, and my mother used to say that you went to fight the bad guys, why is it that now my godfather is gone, but you don't go?" Wen Juan said.
"Little fool, what should I do if I go and you are bullied by other children?" Lu Hai said with a smile.
"Aunt Zhang won't allow me to be bullied, and besides, they can't beat me." Wen Juan said proudly.
"So if Dad also goes to fight the bad guys, will you cry if you don't see Dad for a long time?" Lu Hai said. (To be continued.) )
