Chapter 182: Coincidental

Regarding He Sanliang's suggestion, Li Ziyuan groaned and clicked on the map and said: "The method you came up with is not bad, Changzhi is the headquarters of the 36th Division of the Japanese Army. Fastest update access: щщщ.79XS.сОΜ. If we go anywhere to get him, it will definitely be impossible for the Japanese army to come back without 'drawing' troops. ”

"But if we mess with him in the southeastern mountains of Changzhi, what should we do next? Your brother is also a veteran over there, so you should know the maneuverability and reaction speed of the Japanese army. From here to the southeast of Changzhi, a large part of the terrain in the western part of Hubei is located in the plain area of the Shangdang Basin. ”

"Under this kind of terrain, it is difficult for us to get rid of the pursuit of the Japanese army. What's more, we still have more than 200 non-combatants with us, and more than half of your troops don't have guns. The lack of mines and explosives, and even now that there are not many supplies left, have you considered these things? ”

Hearing Li Ziyuan's rhetorical question, He Sanliang said with a very 'heart' and contentedness: "Sir Li, this is easy to do." Let's divide our troops into two ways, and concentrate the combatants to find a key target to get him a guy first. Leave some of the people behind to protect these non-combatants in this area. ”

"Let's fight him in the west, and the little devil will definitely mobilize the troops from the east to reinforce the west. When the time comes, as soon as the devils move here, the rest of the people can enter the mountain. I know a little about the combat habits of your Eighth Route Army. Your place is well organized, and these people shouldn't have much of a problem just going into the mountains. ”

"However, the people who stay must be experienced. Be able to grasp when to go and when to fight. I think that as long as you can send these non-combatants into the mountains, you will be able to throw off the biggest burden. When the time comes, with your ability to fight as much as you want, you can fight as much as you want. ”

"Moreover, you fought this battle on the highway from Huguan to Changzhi, and the little devil's eyes will definitely attract some of it. In this way, in the area to the west of the north of the pot, there should be some space for us to 'intersperse'. I think with the ability of the commander, I should be able to taste the fighters in it. ”

"And with the combined strength of your and my two divisions, if we fight and collect quickly, there should be no problem. I don't think there's any other way to get into the mountains safely. We don't have the capital to fight hard now, and you, Chief Li, are not the kind of people who fight hard at every turn. ”

"Some of my subordinates are veterans of the Linyi War in 38. Although the veteran oil habit is very heavy, there is nothing to say about the military quality. I have also seen the combat effectiveness of your subordinates, and it should be said that the training is quite sufficient. As long as the two of us join forces to fight him on the periphery of Changzhi, we may not be able to mobilize some devils. ”

Speaking of this, He Sanliang's finger pointed to a point on the map to the north of Changzhi Guan Village. Looking at the point that He Sanliang lit, Li Ziyuan knocked on this guy's head: "You kid is going to send us all back to the West in a battle." Don't you know that in September this year, our main force just 'touched' the Guancun airfield and blew up three planes of the devils? ”

"The little devil is not stupid, don't you know how to remember 'sex' for a long time just after being beaten? This airport must be heavily guarded now, close to the county seat of Changzhi, and the surrounding commanding heights are controlled by Japanese troops. We are still 'touching' the airport, I'm afraid it's hard to get into the area around the airport. ”

Regarding Li Ziyuan's objection, He Sanliang said: "Chief Li, it is precisely because your army attacked the airport in September that I suggest that we make persistent efforts now and get him a hand." Now it's only a little more than a month since the first attack, and the little devil definitely wouldn't have expected that we would have two dozen airports in such a short period of time. ”

"The airport is the most important place for the little devil, where do we stab him, even if the little devil is reluctant, he can only transfer reinforcements from the west of Hubei. Coupled with the previous battle, the devils will inevitably think that you have retreated to the mountains of Huguan. After such a division of troops, the strength of the devil around Changzhi is not as high as you think. ”

"In addition, the little devil has been sweeping for a while in the western plain area of Hubei, and he has not caught your shadow. I think the focus of their next sweep will gradually unfold to Ludong in the north and Huguan in the south. The hostile situation around Changzhi should not be so serious. As long as we are careful, the fighters can still be found. ”

Looking at He Sanliang, who had a very sincere attitude in front of him, Li Ziyuan hesitated slightly and understood his intentions. However, while Li Ziyuan nodded slightly, he looked at this guy with two eyes for a long time before he said, "You're not a company commander, it's that simple." ”

"Even a veteran can't have such courage. You are also not a graduate of the Central Military Academy, and those graduates of theirs have no problem fighting regular positional warfare or fighting that kind of conventional deployment. This kind of wild way is not something that those graduates of the Central Military Academy can do. ”

Li Ziyuan's evaluation, He Sanliang shook his head and said: "I am a person from the army, and when I graduated from middle school, I was just in time for the Battle of Jinpu Road. The 40th Army was fighting in our hometown that year, thinking that if I left, I would save a bite to eat for my family. Besides, being a soldier has a military salary, and he can help his family support his younger siblings, so he followed. ”

"There are very few students who have graduated from the Central Military Academy of our army, and the miscellaneous army is reluctant to come. Those who are willing to come have ulterior motives, and the Governor's Department is afraid of reuse, for fear of pulling the troops away, and they are all offered as Bodhisattvas in the Governor's Department. I can still lead soldiers, just an officer from an ordinary army. ”

"Before becoming a company commander, he was the chief of staff of our army and served as a guard for a long time. It wasn't until the chief of staff was transferred that I went down to the unit to lead the troops. Our chief of staff graduated from the eighth phase of the Baoding Military Academy, and he is quite talented, and I have learned a lot from him. ”

Regarding He Sanliang's answer, Li Ziyuan shook his head and said, "What kind of background are you, I don't have any interest in this." However, your vision is quite accurate, and the two of us coincide on this point. However, whether to hit Changzhi Airport or choose other points, we can't just decide now. ”

"My current idea is to jump to the junction of Hubei, Huguan and Changzhi. Look for an opportunity to infiltrate the territory of Changzhi, find the weakness of the Japanese puppet army according to the situation, and get him a guy first. After mobilizing the Japanese puppet army, let the north directly enter the front line of Basongling. Whether to hit the airport or not, I haven't considered it yet. ”

"But our purpose is not to fight to the death with the Japanese puppet army. In a word, in terms of tactics, there is a false and a false, if there are fighters, we will fight, and if there are no fighters, we will leave. Our real purpose at the moment is to open up enough distance in the deployment of the Japanese puppet army and find a gap for us to 'insert'. ”

Speaking of this, Li Ziyuan looked at Ma Yongcheng beside him and said, "Old Ma, what is your opinion, say it and listen to it?" If you have any ideas, let's sum them up. The situation is so complicated now, and our strength is also very limited, do we need everyone to work together at this time? ”

Seeing Li Ziyuan asking himself, Ma Yongcheng smiled bitterly: "Lao Li, you are now a military commander, and I, a political cadre who has never fought a war, should not express my opinion." In a word, I only have ears and no mouth. I will carry out your orders, but let me have my opinion dismissed. ”

Ma Yongcheng's answer, Li Ziyuan was very dissatisfied and said: "Old Ma, you want to be a shopkeeper when you come to me." My instructor is now staying in the old base area of Hubei, and there is not a single other political work cadre. You want to be idle now, don't dream that autumn dream. ”

"Military issues, since you don't want to 'interfere', I won't force you, but you have to arrest Lao Tzu for this political work. The composition of the army is now complicated, and it is necessary for an effective political cadre to rectify the morale of the army. Since your brother is an authentic political cadre, then it's good, you will act as an instructor for the time being. ”

"Lao Tzu doesn't feed idlers here, since you have to go with me, then I have to borrow your ability. In this way, you first unify the thinking of the troops to Lao Tzu. Don't really fight, the troops are still estranged from each other, which affects the display of combat effectiveness. ”

Li Ziyuan had a very strong attitude, so Ma Yongcheng could only nod and agree. After Ma Yongcheng turned to leave, He Sanliang, who looked at his back, turned his head and said to Li Ziyuan: "Chief Li, if you temporarily unify the thinking of two different units, you will definitely choose the right person this time." ”

"You Ma Commander can really say that the big truth is one by one, and you almost come with your mouth open. When I was in the devil's prisoner of war camp, I almost hanged myself without finding a rope to thank us for the crime of friction. These brothers under my command, don't look at the number of veterans, during this time the prisoner of war camp squatted, and they were more intimate with him than with me. ”

"If you want to talk about war, I will definitely not accept your Eighth Route Army. Not to mention anything else, a battle like the Battle of Linyi, you may not be able to survive it. The number of our army at that time was about the same as that of your division. You are poor, and we are no better off. ”

"But when it comes to this political and ideological work, I'm really convinced. Those veterans under my command, let you, the horse commander, work hard for more than ten days to obey the 'get'. If it weren't for him, it is estimated that the puppet army would have pulled people, and I am afraid that at least one-third of them would have been pulled over. ”

"In the prisoner of war camp of the devils, he also suffered the most. I heard a puppet army guard who used to work in our army say that he has been on the blacklist of devils. If it weren't for the fact that the devils of Changzhi didn't know why, they named the captured officers of your Eighth Route Army, especially the political work officers among them, it is estimated that he would have been eliminated a long time ago. ”

Regarding He Sanliang's parity with Ma Yongcheng, Li Ziyuan smiled and did not make any parity. This Ma Yongcheng took care of himself, and Li Ziyuan knew that this guy was definitely not an honest person. Although he was born as a political work cadre, he is not as rigid and dogmatic as ordinary political work cadres, and he can even be said to be very ghostly.

He will not return to the Fourth Division at this time, and it is estimated that in addition to the oppression of the situation, I am afraid that he still has some thoughts about taking the opportunity to send troops. He had been a prisoner twice this time, and whether he rebelled or not, he was definitely not fit to stay in the agency, and he must have seen this in his heart.

After all, the higher the authority, the higher the confidentiality and security 'sex' requirements. Although he did not defect, he was not suitable to work in a secret unit. Since it is a matter of time before the troops are discharged, it is better to take this opportunity to familiarize yourself with the following. Li Ziyuan bets that this guy will follow him in life and death, and it is estimated that half of his mind will be on this.
