"This Leng Jie always surprises me, and this surprise is a bit big!

At the cost of more than 6,000 casualties, more than 6,000 Japanese soldiers were killed, and I suspect that this figure is false. ”

In Chongqing, when he saw the battle reports sent by Yu Hanmou and the 54th Army in the Fourth War Zone, Chen Cheng was really surprised after reading them.

In this Yubei Campaign, the 54th Army can be said to have performed outstandingly, leading the counterattack in northern Guangdong with 4 divisions, but the Guangdong Army has become a foil.

Therefore, when the war report from northern Guangdong arrived in Chongqing, the chairman of the committee also praised the 54th Army for fighting well, and by the way, he also praised Chen Cheng.

After all, the 54th Army was a unit under Chen Cheng.

The core of the civil engineering department is the 18th Army, but the 54th Army has become the most capable force of the civil engineering department.

Of course, Chen Cheng was not dissatisfied, but very happy.

"Sir, this number should be true, it is said that the battle of the 40th Division is mainly commanded by Leng Jie, this is a problem!" Guo confessed worriedly.

"Questions? You mean Yang Wenjing? Chen Cheng said.

"Don't you think it's a good thing for this to go on like this, sir? Yang Wenjin's own ability is not bad, but Leng Jie is also very strong, and now Leng Jie, the deputy division commander, is very dazzling, but Yang Wenying, the division commander, has little sense of existence. Guo said worriedly.

"Then do you think it's to transfer Yang Wenjing away? Or is it appropriate to transfer Leng Jie away? In fact, Chen Cheng also knows this problem.

"It may be appropriate to transfer Yang Wenying. Leng Jie has a lot of prestige in the 40th Division, and the last few tough battles have been fought by Leng Jie with the 40th Division.

Although Yang Wenjin's ability is not bad, without Leng Jie, he may not be able to lead the 40th Division well.

And sir, it's not the same thing that the 54th Army now has 4 infantry divisions, so why not take this opportunity to solve this problem together? Guo Chen suggested.

"There's some truth to what you're saying!" Chen Cheng nodded, "I have also considered the issue of the 54th Army, the two elites of the 14th Division and the 40th Division are a little inappropriate in one unit, and I have long planned to separate the two divisions." ”

"The commander wants to transfer the 40th Division?" Guo asked tentatively.

"There was an idea, but where to transfer was a question. Transfer back to the 18th Army? Or go to the 75th Army, or the 79th Army? It seems like it's all a problem. Chen Cheng was also a little hesitant.

"Do you want to go to the Sichuan Army? Leng Jie himself is a native of Sichuan, and now the Sichuan army is divided after Liu Xiang's death, which is an opportunity to encroach on the Sichuan army. Guo Chen suggested.

The 40th Division continues to remain in the descendant troops, and it is a question who can hold it down.

Rather than stay in the internal discord, it is better to let it gobble up the motley forces.

It just so happened that the Sichuan army was now divided, and Deng Xihou, Tang Shizun, Pan Wenhua, Wang Zhangxu, Wang Lingji and others were in their own ways, and no one was convinced.

Leng Jie also happens to be from Sichuan, so the Sichuan army's rejection of him will not be so great.

"Sichuan Army? Is Leng Jie willing to go? Chen Cheng couldn't help laughing.

"The commander's order, he should obey, if the commander compensates him, I guess he will be happy to go." Guo said.

"Make it up to him? Let him be the commander of the 40th Division? It's a little soon! He was the deputy division commander for less than a year. Chen Cheng shook his head.

"But he's a great fighter, isn't he? Let it be estimated that it will also be hollowed out, and there is no need for the commander to make him the division commander, but he will act as the deputy division commander as the division commander, and when the time is ripe, it will not be too late to promote him to the division commander. Guo said.

"Acting division commander at the age of 25? Even the deputy division commander is very scary.

What am I doing at 25? At that time, I was still the captain and company commander in charge of the Generalissimo Office of the Founding Father.

Regret Wu, you seem to have just graduated from the sixth phase of Baoding at that time, right? Chen Cheng couldn't help but think of the past.

Guo Xin shook his head embarrassedly, "This can't be compared." Leng Jie's combat ability is beyond doubt, don't the chief's subordinates just need such subordinates?

As for Leng Jie's position, why don't you ask the chairman of the committee. ”

"That's what you said, when this matter arrives in Guangxi, I'll ask the chairman for instructions."

In fact, Chen Cheng can directly change Leng Jie's position, but it is easy to be attacked by others.

In addition, Leng Jie himself is indeed too young, if a person in the tenth phase of Huangpu becomes the acting division commander now, it is estimated that he will be noisy in the Huangpu department.

The reason why he wanted to go to Guangxi was because the Battle of Guinan made Chongqing more worried, so he planned to take advantage of the victory at Kunlun Pass to gather superior forces to counterattack the Japanese army and recover Nanning and other places.

Originally, Chen Cheng also wanted the 54th Army to reinforce the Battle of Guinan, but the losses of the 54th Army were not small, and he had to rest for a while.

So Chen Cheng ordered the 54th Army to replenish its personnel, weapons and ammunition as soon as possible, so that it could recover as soon as possible.

Maybe it's the fish and the bear's paw.

Both Chen Cheng and Lao Jiang thought that they had fought a beautiful counterattack in northern Guangdong, and that they could replicate it in southern Guizhou, but both were disappointed in the end.

Because at the military review meeting after the Battle of Guinan, a large number of generals were disposed of, including Bai Chongxi and Chen Cheng, both of whom changed from first-class generals to second-class generals.

Many generals were even directly removed from their posts and investigated!

However, at this time, Chen Cheng didn't know that he would be demoted in a month, after all, it was more than a month later.

。。。。。。

"Regiment commander, Anze's devil is here, he has just collected grain from Hechuan and is preparing to return to the county seat, there is only one squadron, and there are many puppet troops on both sides."

Shanxi, north of the county seat of Anze and near Hechuan, in a place very suitable for ambushes, the troops of the Eighth Regiment of Decisive Death were lying in ambush here.

"A squadron of Japanese troops and more than two hundred puppet troops? God knows I'm poor, so I've got equipment! ”

In the position on the hillside, Li He was a little excited to hear that the enemy had only one Japanese squadron and more than 200 puppet troops.

After learning that the Japanese army was out of the city yesterday, he rushed over with his troops, and finally waited for the Japanese army to leave the city.

For this operation, he brought three battalions and a cavalry company, and did not bring mountain artillery, because it was not suitable for ambushes, and he did not want to waste artillery shells, which he was going to use to attack the county seat or important strongholds.

Although he did not have a mountain artillery, he had a conscience cannon, and in this kind of battle, it was more comfortable to use than a mountain artillery.

"This devil really thinks that we are the Jin Sui Army, so many people dare to go out of the city? He doesn't know how powerful our Eight Regiments are! Mao Hong on the side said.

After retreating to Anzeliangma, Lehi reorganized the troops, and of course reported to the column headquarters, which was approved.

In addition to the six infantry battalions, Lehi went from director of the political department to regimental commander and concurrently held the post of political commissar.

Chen Shiping took over the post of director of the Political Department, and Mao Hong was promoted to deputy commander of the Eighth Regiment and concurrently served as commander of the Second Battalion.

As a matter of fact, the column headquarters had different views on the reorganization of the Eighth Regiment of the Decisive Death.

But if Lehi successfully broke through and inflicted heavy losses on the Jin Sui army, if he didn't care about his merits, how could he convince the public?

Therefore, Lehi was officially appointed as the head of the regiment, and as for the political commissar, he was in charge first, and then sent it when there was a suitable person later.

Obviously, the position of political commissar has to be studied carefully.
