After the meeting ended, Hu Yu was still sitting there in a stupid daze. After more than 20 years of military life, Hu Yu has wrinkled his eyelids like an old man, his skin is rough and he never washes his eyelids, and his face is like a pig's liver in his 40s, and even has a faint age spot. Because of the meeting just now, I held my breath, my face turned dark purple, and the age spots became more obvious.

The matter should be traced back to the battle that has just ended: This is the first battle of the Volunteer Army since its entry into Korea, and the headquarters has received instructions from the Party Central Committee to inflict heavy losses on the enemy army in this campaign, concentrate its forces on a war of annihilation, and destroy the two integrated divisions of Syngman Rhee in South Korea. Seek peace through victory in the war, bring the United Nations forces led by the US military to the negotiating table, and end the war as soon as possible. Because New China has just been founded, it needs a peaceful and stable environment and spends more energy and resources on domestic construction. The battle is nearing its end, the Chinese and North Korean armies are already in sight of victory, the coalition forces have broken through, and the Chinese and North Korean troops are pouring in like a tidal wave. The coalition forces were surrounded by fragments, and the rest of them desperately retreated, throwing down a large number of baggage along the way, which was embarrassing! However, this Bi Jing is a veteran who participated in World War II and was withdrawn from Europe. After losing the battle, there was no external chaos and internal chaos, and the chain of command was not eliminated; There was no sign of troops interfering and blocking traffic. In order to accomplish the task of annihilating the enemy by the central authorities and expand the results of the battle more effectively, the Volunteer Army Headquarters is determined to block the enemy's retreat and inflict heavy losses on the coalition forces led by the United States and South Korea. Hu Yu's troops were temporarily drawn from the battlefield, and the task was to force the whole army to march 100 kilometers, to rush to the enemy's retreat before they arrived, to block the retreat of the coalition forces at all costs, and to wait for the general offensive of the large army to begin. Hu Yu was originally a veteran of the Red Army who had participated in the 25,000-mile Long March, and was appointed a regiment commander to take over this unit on the Red Army's Long March; After being promoted to division commander in the eighth year of the Anti-Japanese War, the unit was expanded and still commanded this unit; Until the Liberation War, he became the commander of the army and still commanded this army. This army is his painstaking efforts for many years, and it is he who has brought an obscure army into an iron army that can overcome and defend like a strong. He believes that his warriors can accomplish any difficult task in any difficult environment! However, after receiving the task, Hu Yu felt the arduousness of the task. More than 30,000 people marched forcibly in a foreign country, and they still marched once when they entered the DPRK, and once they traveled 100 kilometers in one day and one night. After many years of military career, he knew that a forced march was 30,000 people running wildly, and those who were in poor health could die of exhaustion. He summoned the commanders at the division and regimental level to hold a military meeting and make military arrangements; Political Commissar Li Boru made a pre-war mobilization. According to the division of labor, the army commander Hu Yu had full control of the troops at the front, and the political commissar was responsible for sheltering the soldiers who were sick or could not walk. And the troops set off.

"Did you find the guide?" Hu Yu asked the chief of staff beside him.

"Found it. The local Korean villagers specially arranged four fighters to protect them. The chief of staff replied.

Hu Yu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Tell the soldier to get a stretcher, and if he can't walk, point him to the destination." You can't be like us warriors. ”

"Yes!" The chief of staff turned and left.

The sky was covered with black clouds, and the clouds were getting lower and lower, as if the people were out of breath. The bad weather affected Hu Yu's bad mood, and he was even more worried about affecting the speed of the troops. If the weather continues to deteriorate, or if it rains heavily, the troops will not be able to reach the designated position on time, and the mission may not be completed. That would disrupt Shiji's mission of annihilation, lose the opportunity for a strategic victory, and also make Shiji lose the opportunity to expand the results of the battle. After a dazzling lightning, a thunderbolt exploded in the air, and Hu Yu was startled. "Damn the weather!" Hu Yu scolded.

The wind blew stronger and stronger, and the wind was cooler and cooler. The heat produces the wind, the cold produces the rain, and the wind and the cool rain will soon come. After nearly 30 years as a soldier, using soldiers according to the change of weather is also one of the magic weapons for commanders to win. This is the season of early winter, and the soldiers who are going to be on the battlefield in the country have changed into winter clothes. Because the Chinese Volunteers did not have air supremacy, US planes not only blew up the Yalu River Bridge, but also indiscriminately bombed our logistical supply lines, regardless of the roads and railways, day and day, causing a large number of casualties and the destruction of military supplies and supplies of the Chinese Volunteers. Looking at the soldiers wearing single clothes and running in the cold wind, he naturally had a complicated heart, these soldiers who came to fight in foreign countries for the sake of New China and in response to the party's call, some may die here and never return to the motherland, and some may be injured or disabled and will not be able to take care of themselves in the future. Looking at these immature little faces, I am proud of such a great nation as the Chinese from the heart!

North Korea is a mountainous country. Judging from the map, these dozens of kilometers walked during the day are considered Pingchuan. However, in this economically backward country with years of war, there are no roads at all, only carriages and lanes.

"Hello Commander!" The warriors ran past him and greeted him.

"Hello everyone!" Hu Yu has a violent temper and never loses his temper with his soldiers.

"Are we going to fight the Yankees, or are we going to fight the puppet army?" The puppet army that the fighters are talking about is the guide Korean army.

"It doesn't matter if he's a Yankee or a puppet army, let's paint it all in one pot." As the soldiers laughed, Hu Yu continued, "Young men, this battle must show the majesty of Chinese soldiers!"

"Don't worry. If we win, just give us a big meal of meat. A mischievous warrior caught up from behind added.

In the more than two months since US planes bombed the rear supply lines of the Chinese People's Volunteers, the soldiers of the Chinese People's Volunteers have often not had enough to eat, let alone meat. Hu Yu lamented that the soldiers were not well fed, could not be warmly clothed in a foreign country, and in such bad weather, they were still running energetically on the road that was not a highway. In fighting against the coalition forces in Korea, the enemy relied on the heavy equipment of motorized troops, and the volunteer army relied on a pair of iron feet and iron will; For the sake of the people of the motherland with the spirit of courage and dedication. When they arrive at their destination, no matter how tired they are, they will forget themselves and devote themselves to the battle without fear of sacrifice. They have no extravagant hopes, they just want to eat a little meat, and as the commander of this unit, what reason does he have not to satisfy the fighters? He felt particularly remorseful. He thought, "When the battle is over, the warriors must be given a feast of meat, for fear of killing all the animals." ”

The rain came, and the raging winds combined with the heavy rain made the warriors drenched in just a while. Hu Yu sat in a jeep and entered the Korean War, and the senior commander of the Volunteer Army was equipped with an American-made jeep captured from the Kuomintang army during the Civil Liberation War. He saw the fighters running on one side, some laughing, some pushing. This is strictly forbidden on weekday marches, especially during the day, because American reconnaissance opportunities appear over the troops at any time. He was glad that although it was daytime, the weather was so bad that he concluded that the enemy planes would not appear. He fights with the soldiers, which increases the friendship between the soldiers, relieves fatigue, makes pre-war tension, and most importantly, reduces casualties.

After running wildly for a day, when it was almost dark, they came to the bottom of a hill and the troops stopped. The guide in front of me passed the word, and the road behind was all mountain roads. He took a look at the soldiers, from the morning to the time when they were tired and did not speak to each other in the afternoon, to the fact that their faces were as white as the skin of the wall, and there was no blood on their lips. After the march stopped, because the soldiers were wearing single clothes and did not cook in a pot at noon, the soldiers ate fried corn and soybean noodles that they brought with them, and they were hungry, their clothes were soaked in the rain, and their bodies were cold, and some soldiers were already shivering. Hu Yu got out of the jeep, took the binoculars and looked back, and the troops behind him were sparsely pulled down for twenty miles. He knew that if he did not gather his troops and give the soldiers a hot meal, he would not be able to launch an effective attack even if he reached the forward position. He decided that the troops would rest in the mountains, and each cooking class would cook immediately, and when the troops behind them caught up, it would be time to start eating. He stood on the pedal of the jeep, looked around, and did not see the communicator, he was a little unhappy, and shouted, "Communicator." "The messenger was covered in mud and ran over.

Hu Yu frowned unhappily and said, "What did you do?" ”

The messenger wiped the rain from his face and said, "The car in front is stuck in the mud, so I'm helping to push the cart." Hu Yu waved his hand, "Order the troops, rest on the spot, and cook immediately." The communicator turned to leave, "Wait a minute, call the chief of staff to come over right away." The chief of staff rushed over, and Hu Yu arrived: "I have ordered the troops to rest on the spot, cook immediately, and tell the soldiers to have a hot meal." The chief of staff raised his wrist and pointed to his watch, meaning to tell Hu Yu to grasp the time.
