Chapter 45 Turning Danger into Relief
Wu Shan quickly entered the ancestral hall, found a corner, and immediately began to send reports to the preset channel: Golden Eagle, Rabbit Goes Up the Mountain, Insect Stops the Waist, Zhonghu. After the report is sent, turn off all signals immediately.
Outside the Zhongdu Commune, in the Mountain Brigade Headquarters, Liu Taimeng walked around the tent with a grim face.
"What's the situation like now?" He casually asked Ma Qinghong next to him.
"Chief, each squad of the second and third companies has been reported, and everything is normal." Ma Qinghong wanted to speak and stopped.
Liu Taimeng's brows furrowed deeper and deeper: "There has been no telegram for a long time?" ”
Seeing him shake his head, Brigade Commander Liu walked to the map again and carefully scanned each place name. Although the expansion of the army is just a bill, the people at the brigade headquarters have already changed the name of the reconnaissance unit.
"What about the Chief of Staff?" He said this to the personal guard Ran Pengxiang.
"Chief, the chief of staff came just now, and went back to study with other staff officers." Ran Pengxiang was cautious.
In the past two days, Brigade Commander Liu's mind has been very heavy. His father was a well-deserved "military god" in the Chinese Liberation War. As Liu Shuai's eldest son, his every move has attracted the attention of the domestic and even the world's military. In the past, Liu Taimeng had also participated in some military exercises, but he was a participant and had no right to speak. The military has already informed the military of this military exercise with the Minzhou troops. It was the first time he led the team to fight independently, and he was naturally under a lot of pressure. The war room, went and back, he was always waiting for news from the reconnaissance company.
Speaking of which, Jacky Cao and his tactics simply coincide. The timing of the attack on both sides was also about the same, both tonight. If, according to the established plan, the troops would have to engage in an encounter with the Minzhou Military Region.
It had long since stopped raining, and the smell of earth wafted through the air. Liu Taimeng stood outside the tent and took a deep breath.
"Here's one!" Before the words fell, Luo Dongyang's cigarette had already been handed over.
"It's so cold." Liu Taimeng took a puff of his cigarette and said fiercely.
Chen Haosu walked over, his eyes were also bloodshot. Political commissar, responsible for the political and ideological work of the troops, yes. The three new generations of them are the commanders of China's first mountain troops, and it can be said that they are both prosperous and loss-oriented. His father Chen Shuai has passed away, and his future comes from much less help from his family. Chen Haosu's everything has to be made to pay more than others. Therefore, Liu Taimeng said that he thought about it a lot, and he was not wrong. He was the eldest son in the family, and all the burdens were on him.
"What's cold?" Political Commissar Chen stretched out his hand to Luo Dongyang.
The latter 0 looked at the cigarette case, only the last cigarette, and threw the cigarette case to him.
Chen Haosu skillfully spit out a smoke ring: "The cold in the south is wet and cold; The cold in the north is dry cold. There is also heating in the north, and the walls are a half brick, and the walls in the south, one brick, how thin. A temperature inside and outside the house. ”
He took another puff in frustration, threw the cigarette on the ground, and stomped it out on his feet.
"Big brother, I'll go, you're not a qualified smoker, and there's such a big festival." Luo Dongyang's face was full of regret.
is also the son of the founding father, Luo Dongyang has long developed a cautious character. The premature death of my father not only meant that my path was more tortuous, but also that I could not be as financially prosperous as my other companions.
"Yo? All in? Rong Fusheng stomped over with a smile, his hands behind his back.
"Uncle Rong!" The three of them greeted each other in unison.
On formal occasions, it is natural to call Rong Fusheng his title, and he usually respects the old man. Everyone knows that the old man is very calm on the surface, but he didn't close his eyes all night last night.
"A pick-me-up?" Luo Dongyang took out a pack of cigarettes from another pocket and unpacked it.
Old Man Rong lazily stretched out his hand and yawned: "Let's have one." ”
"Uncle Rong, you better go and rest, I'll let someone call you if something happens." Mrs. Liu stretched out her hand and took one and fiddled with it in her hand: "You are different from us, our brothers and sons are still young and can afford to stay up all night." ”
"It's okay," the chief of staff shook his head, brought the cigarette close to the match that Luo Dongyang lit, he took a puff and lit it: "I'm used to it." Back then, our class followed Taizu to cross the Chishui several times, and when we crossed the river for the first time, did we not close our eyes for seven or eight days? When you are tired and sleepy, you soak your head in water. When I first arrived in Qianzhou, it was January. When we left there, it was already May. It's not uncommon to go a day or two without sleeping. The old man took a sip: "This one with a filter is not used to smoking." Don't worry, this battle is a test for us and for the Minzhou troops. If we meet on a narrow road, the brave will win, and we will definitely win this exercise. ”
As he spoke, Chief of Staff Rong walked over and patted the shoulders of the three people.
There is calm in every major event, and this sentence, Chief of Staff Rong may not know the way. He was just an ordinary peasant kid, and he attended night school in the army to eliminate illiteracy. At the beginning, I learned traditional Chinese characters, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, I learned simplified characters. All of Rong Fusheng's combat knowledge was summed up from one battle after another. In fact, for every battle, no one knows the outcome before it starts. The PLA's ability to be invincible and invincible is the result of collective wisdom. What did General Xu Shiyou do when he put him in the Mountain Brigade? Isn't it just to play the role of a needle to fix the sea? If you panic, these three second-generation soldiers who have never experienced the war, I don't know what kind of nervousness Lu Dao will become. The other side, like the mountain brigade, is also a combat sequence unit of the PLA, and everyone uses collective wisdom. Intelligence is crucial to who wins. For the time being, there is only information from the second and third companies, and the information from the first company has not come. Was it caught by the enemy? Or did the Minzhou troops not arrive?
"The chief of staff is right," Liu Taimeng pinned the cigarette to his ear: "Let's go, let's go to the war room." ”
In the war room, a group of staff officers and regiment commanders were waiting for the latest combat orders. Seeing a few bigwigs entering, their faces were gloomy, and everyone didn't even dare to come out.
Rong Fusheng's eyes had long since grown old, he took off his glasses, picked up the magnifying glass on the side, and carefully searched every place.
"Chief of Staff," Luo Dongyang took off his military hat, rested on the edge of the table, and scratched his scalp: "At present, our reconnaissance troops have not found any traces of the enemy, have they not entered the position yet?" ”
Rong Fusheng rested his magnifying glass on the map, his eyes fixed on the ceiling, and after more than a minute, the chief of staff slowly shook his head. For Jacky Cao, a rising star, they have never fought together, but they have heard of his deeds. Cao Xueyou enlisted in the Liberation War and shined on the battlefield of Goryeo. Later, in the battles against the polar bears and Annan, he was also undefeated. There is no vanity under the fame, and everyone understands the truth of the speed of the soldiers. How could it be that the mountain brigade arrived at the designated battlefield and he didn't arrive?
"Chief of Staff, if we can't wait for the information of the first company, we should act according to the established plan." Liu Taimeng went to pour a glass of water and blew softly: "No matter what, our troops must enter the position in advance. ”
Rong Fusheng didn't speak, picked up the magnifying glass again, and looked back and forth on the bridge in Juzijiao.
"Report!" Ma Qinghong broke the solemnity of the war room at the door.
"Come in!" Liu Taimeng's voice was a little short, and when he saw the joy on the face of the guard squad leader, his breathing quickened a lot.
Chen Haosu snatched the telegram and read it out: "Golden Eagle, the rabbit goes up the mountain, the insect stops the waist, Zhonghu." ”
"What?" Rong Fusheng's skills didn't show that he was an old man at all, and he flew over with a strong step.
Liu Taimeng and Luo Dongyang's heads also came over, and the staff officers and regiment commanders who were a little more bold all leaned over their heads. Everyone stared at the telegram for fear of missing a word.
After reading it together, I glanced at each other, and couldn't help but laugh.
"This little bunny." Liu Taimeng slammed his fist on the makeshift table, the mud fell down, and his tears came out.
"Great," Rong Fusheng also danced happily: "Wushan, this kid is really good." Jacky Cao is not simple, I have heard for a long time that he is good at surprise soldiers. Unthinkable, unthinkable! This information is too timely. He used a battalion to feint, and came directly from above to hit behind us, and he was not a haunting general. ”
"The point is, how did this kid evade the other party's troops?" Chen Haosu's face was full of curiosity: "In other words, they have already met with this battalion of the other party." If it is said that the squad he leads can defeat a battalion, it is unrealistic in the first place; If it had really been defeated, they would have reported the good news a long time ago. Ma Qinghong, can their signal still be searched in Wushan? ”
Ma Qinghong is a qualified guard squad leader, and he is still standing at the door.
"No, chief," he shook his head, "At that time, the comrades of the wireless class contacted five or six times, and they have not stopped until now, so it should be turned off." ”
"The telegram just came, and it certainly wasn't captured." Rong Fusheng's other four fingers retracted, and his index finger tapped on the table: "That is to say, this young man with his original squad is already in the enemy-occupied area and has entered the range covered by the enemy." ”
"Okay," Liu Taimeng put on his hat: "Chief of Staff, we are now implementing the second set of combat plans?" ”
"The second set is the most suitable," Rong Fusheng sneezed and rubbed his nostrils: "That's it, brigade commander, the plan has been slightly changed." We went straight from below, went around to the back of the battalion, and caught turtles in an urn. ”
"Staff Officer Qu," Liu Taimeng asked Qu Jiawen, a staff officer who did not speak, "How is our ship collected?" ”
"At the moment there is only enough for one company of troops." Qu Jiawen felt very embarrassed, but the logistics people did their best.
"That's enough," Rong Fusheng stopped, "Because the troops that bypassed were strange soldiers, and there were not many of them." ”
"I command!" Liu Taimeng waved his hand: "The fifth regiment will send a company to immediately cross the reservoir from downstream." This company took the lead in the attack and attracted the attention of the enemy. Remember, you must withstand the enemy's attack! Now on the table, after an hour and a half, launch a general attack. Strive not to let the enemy on the other side have a chance to send a report. ”
"Yes!" The staff officers and regiment commanders replied loudly.
"Chief of Staff, I want to hand over the troops to you and go to participate in the surprise attack myself." Liu Taimeng lowered his voice and pleaded with Rong Fusheng.
The chief of staff just glanced at him and didn't say anything. Brigade Commander Liu sneered and scratched the back of his head.
"Brigadier Commander, what do you think of letting me go?" Xiang Houming is a big loss of face this time. If it weren't for Wushan's telegram, as the mouthpiece of the troops, the whole army would have been wiped out.
"Humph!" Liu Taimeng's anger has long since disappeared: "Take my note and find Captain Wu Gaofeng." ”
For Xiang Houming, the brigade commander was not harsh, he had been following him since the beginning of the Beijing Division. This action can only be said to be worth the merits. Liu Taimeng himself is a very nostalgic person, so naturally he will not lose face in front of others. At the same time, he also understands that Xiang Houming's greatest ability is to lead troops into battle.
"Ahh Luo Dongyang yawned, rubbing his hands vigorously on his face: "Could it be that now we can only rely on Xiaoshan's class?" What about the other two classes? ”
"If there is no accident, it may have been captured." The chief of staff smiled wryly.
Indeed, these two squads were captured.
Cao Xueyou of the Minzhou army is old and bold in his use of soldiers. The mountain brigade was a reconnaissance unit of three platoons, he had a reconnaissance battalion. This battalion is still four companies! When dispatching, with the company as a unit, when he encountered the two squads of Wang Xuegui and Dao Chaoren, they were naturally devastating and directly crushed. Seeing that the two classes were captured, Jacky Cao was overjoyed. It seems that General Xiao Liu is ready to attack from above? It's not that Commander Cao brags, his army can directly eat the mountain brigade with the number of people.
Of course, this is not a real battle, it is just a drill. Therefore, the two classes that were captured were naturally not mistreated, but it was impossible to find the situation from their mouths. In fact, even they don't know the brigade headquarters' operational plans.
Wang Xuegui and Dao Chaoren, who had just met, met and let out a wry smile.
"Where's the instructor?" The two men asked each other in unison.
