Chapter 530: Anger and Criticism

Li Ziyuan looked at the cadres who had serious expressions after listening to his words, and smiled: "My habits, you are now clear. However, I can't say that my method is the best and the most intelligent, or even that it can handle all situations. ”

"When you get to where I am, you don't have to follow my example. When it is time to be decisive, we must be decisive, and we can't come up with a plan for half a day. The enemy's bayonet is about to be stabbed in the chest, and you still have to hold some kind of combat meeting there to gather everyone together to study the battle plan, that is pure nonsense. ”

"Whether a solution is good or not, in the final analysis, depends on whether you can use it flexibly. If you follow the script, then there will be some fate for fish. As a commander, you need to be decisive in killing and learn from others. To sum up, in the final analysis, it is necessary to deal with it flexibly depending on the situation. ”

"To be honest, this battle is not easy to fight. The situation is urgent, and we cannot afford to drag on this battle. But the current situation of our troops, you all know in your hearts, it will take at least a period of time to complete training. They are all veterans, and sometimes it doesn't mean that they will also embody the corresponding combat effectiveness. ”

"The more veterans, the more complicated the minds of the fighters. Veteran oil, veteran oil, how can you be called a veteran without oil? With so many warriors from the mountains, it is not an easy task to knead them into an effective, efficient and combat-ready whole, and it will take a certain amount of time. ”

"It is precisely because of the current situation of the army that it is temporarily impossible to mobilize all of its members, so I convened this Zhuge Liang meeting today. The entire action plan should be formulated as comprehensively as possible. Militarily, there is none, and cannot be, a flawless course of action. But I'm still going to try to think about it in as much detail as possible. ”

"Strive to be a one-hit kill with minimal damage when you act. In the shortest possible time, with the limited number of troops that can be used, the purpose of this operation will be achieved. But be cautious when making plans, but when you get to the battlefield, you will go down like a tiger. ”

"The pre-war plan was made in more detail and more to consider. Commanders at all levels should not just listen to the reports from below, but it is best to go to the front line to observe the enemy's situation and have a more detailed grasp of the changes in the enemy's situation. In this way, you can get the maximum victory with the least loss. ”

"Comrades, paralysis on the battlefield is meant to kill people. As commanders, you think more about the unexpected, and the soldiers will shed less blood. Of course, it's good to have experience, but it is also necessary to treat it differently. If we do not distinguish between the battlefield environment and completely copy the experience of the past, the harm will be considerable. ”

After Li Ziyuan said this, he looked at his subordinates who were in thought. But he waved his hand unconcernedly, signaling that He Sanliang could start. After receiving Li Ziyuan's signal, He Sanliang coughed twice, and after the attention of several people present attracted the attention of the sand table again.

He Sanliang pointed to the sand table and said, "It can be said that the situation of this battle is very special, and the requirements for us are also very high. Just as the regiment commander said, under the circumstance that the number of troops that can be dispatched is limited, it is necessary to achieve a one-hit kill in the shortest possible time and evacuate quickly. Wang Jun's previous plan, although fundamentally flawed, was in line with this idea. ”

"Attacking from inside and outside, attacking from within the enemy with a force, is the best way for us at the moment. It can be said that this plan of his is not whimsical. Ill-conceived is ill-conceived. It cannot be said that the realization of this plan is impossible. ”

"In my opinion, the troops sent by the reconnaissance company to infiltrate into the town of Pingchuan do not carry long guns. Each person carried a short spear and a dagger, and the rest of the weapons were mainly in the hands of the puppet army. The time for the infiltration force to start the operation should be after the feint attack of the receiving troops on the periphery. ”

"Their actions are not to cooperate with the peripheral forces to seize Pingchuan. Instead, after the launch of a feint on the periphery, he created chaos in the town of Pingchuan and rescued the captives. After the first blow, immediately evacuate quickly. That is, the rest of the battles, they are not involved. ”

"The remaining two platoons of the reconnaissance company were deployed in two directions, north and west of Pingchuan. Their task is not to contain the direction in which the two-faced puppet army may move, but to carry the current half of the regiment*. The tactics of using mobile minelaying and cold guns were adopted to harass and contain the Japanese puppet reinforcements that might be touched by the two sides. ”

"Two companies of the 1st battalion launched attacks on the mountains on both flanks of Pingchuan and on their frontal positions. Remember, don't attack point by point, and don't think about eating the entire Pingchuan Wing Mountain in one bite. The focus was on the 211 heights on the left flank, and the mortar and heavy machine-gun fire points on the 107 heights on the right flank. ”

"After pulling out these two firing points, each with a platoon to attract the puppet troops on the two wings of the mountain. The rest of the troops went straight to the front of Pingchuan Town. A platoon of reconnaissance companies that infiltrated into Pingchuan Town, after the frontal battle began, should not act rashly. Wait until the 1st battalion has taken the strongholds on the two flanks of the hill and opened the retreat before making a move. ”

"Remember, the main task of the platoon is not to seize the arsenal of the puppet army. It is to open the concentration camp of the Japanese puppet army, rescue the captured people, and mobilize as many carts as they can, and then quickly evacuate. Remember, no love is allowed. Tidy up their time, and don't care about this time. ”

"The first battalion and three companies were reinforced, and the second battalion, four companies, and one platoon were ambushed between Qiaokou and Pingchuan, specifically ambushing the puppet army reinforced from Qiaokou. The strength of the remaining two platoons of the fourth company of the second battalion was deployed in the direction of the falling horse. If the puppet army in the fallen stronghold does not move, it will resolutely and indecently move. If dispatched, resist along the road from Lok Ma to Pingchuan. ”

"The fifth and sixth companies of the second battalion, as well as the third battalion, were all withdrawn from their existing positions to the front line of Hutougou and waited for concealment. Remember, when evacuating, the bigger the movement, the better. The various divisions first moved northward, and after reaching the Baishuling line, which was 15 miles away from Luoma, they withdrew at the Hutougou line, which was concealed to the southeast. ”

"After arriving at the first line of Hutougou, all intersections are strictly controlled, and no one is allowed to enter or exit. No ignition is allowed, no major movement is allowed. Before you receive an order, even if there is a bustle outside the mountain, you are not allowed to act rashly. If you don't move and disappear without a trace in the eastern mountains of Hubei, you will be the greatest support for the entire battle. ”

"The whole battle process, in a word, is that there is fiction in reality, and there is reality in fiction. It is necessary to play as big as possible, but also to maintain the rhythm of the attack and not to be entangled by the puppet army. Whether or not we can achieve our tactical goals in this battle, and whether or not we will be able to capture the young and middle-aged people who were captured and imprisoned in Pingchuan and who were taken away by the Japanese puppet army will have a direct bearing on our entire future development. ”

After He Sanliang introduced the entire deployment, Li Ziyuan stood up and walked to the sand table. After clicking on the Pingchuan stronghold on the sand table, he said in a somewhat stern tone: "This mission, the army needs to be adjusted." The first battalion and the second battalion and four companies participating in the battle, some cadres and soldiers should be adjusted. ”

"There are some things that I don't want to say too clearly, because I don't want to embarrass some of our cadres. After the troops withdrew to the eastern mountainous areas of Hubei to recuperate, what did some of your cadres do? Instead of relieving the worries of the superiors and resolving some hidden contradictions, they added fuel to the fire on certain issues. In order to rectify the troops, I think the first thing to rectify is the thinking of some cadres. ”

"Where did you go to the big picture and the concept of unity, which I constantly emphasize with you? They have been educated by the army for so many years, and they still can't change the nature of the small-scale peasant consciousness. How many times have I stressed to you that we must take a long-term view and have a mind that can accommodate all corners of the world. ”

"But what do you battalion commanders and instructors do on weekdays? Insensitive, even laissez-faire. Some cadres are still involved and enjoy it. Instead of serving as an exemplary role that your superiors want you to do, it has also had a very bad impact. ”

"Go back and think about it for me, why I transferred the first battalion this time, not the second or third battalion. During the period of Hutougou concealment, a few of you gave me a good thought. Song Weiye, Lao Tzu took so much effort to almost get you over without carrying a criticism from the whole army. ”

"As a result, you are a tiger general on the battlefield, and you will gang up for me when you go down the battlefield, and you are also a tiger general when you engage in mountaineering. Before you became a soldier, did you have a background as a dough maker? It's been so many years, and the grievances between your old 29th Army and the Central Army have not been forgotten until now. Those things about the old sesame seeds and rotten grains, you kid still remember. ”

"Besides, your grievances and grievances back then were all fucking high-level fighting for power and profit, who dares to guarantee that patting your chest is for the people? If you want to talk about turning over old accounts, those cadres from the old Red Army, who have no hatred with those people at the beginning? How many of us did they kill with their families? How many family members have been killed in our old base area? Is this hatred big? ”

"According to your idea, should we care about what the Japanese army invaded China, and then fight them to the death? National righteousness and national hatred are all thrown behind? Who's happy to do that? Also, your kid turned out to be the platoon commander of the 29th Army, did we squeeze you out after joining the Eighth Route Army? You are a platoon leader over there, and you are demoted to a squad leader over here. ”

"But let me tell you, when you were the squad leader, your company commander was demoted by the battalion commander during the Red Army. Your platoon commander turned out to be the deputy battalion commander on the side of the Red Army. Our whole army is being downgraded because of the downsizing, and the squad leader in the unit is not the original platoon commander? The company commander, isn't that the original battalion commander demoted? You kid joined the army as a squad leader, can you say that the army discriminates against you? ”

"The difference between you, the chief above, understands. But for us, there was no difference between the 29th Army and the Central Army at that time. At least in our eyes, the 29th Army is also a descendant of the troops over there. But at the beginning, the army did not discriminate against you in the use and promotion of you because you were also from the regular army over there. ”

"If we had done the same at the beginning, you kid would have been the class leader for a lifetime. Our warriors are all from all over the world, and each of them cannot be from the same background. Just like when you were a soldier, can you know the difference between the 29th Army and the Central Army? If there were also Central Army troops in Chahar at the beginning, would you be a soldier? ”

"How did you come here, so you have to have a clear and distinct posture of being a thief and a thief? I still turned out those old sesame rotten grains at every turn. Are they not your warriors, your soldiers, your men? Or is it not under your command on the battlefield? ”
