Chapter 256: Shocking news

The instructor quickly reported the results of the elimination of the 2nd Brigade and the 42nd Wing of the 5th Division to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, and the headquarters was naturally shaken again, but at Zhang Cheng's request, the instructor's achievements were kept secret for the time being and were not announced, otherwise the whole country would boil again.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, cadres at and above the battalion level received a notice to go to the division headquarters to hold a pre-war meeting to attack the Fifth Division. Before the meeting, Zhang Cheng and the political commissar had not yet arrived, and after some greetings, the generals rushed to boast about the achievements of their troops.

In just a few days, the instructor successively eliminated the 2nd and 15th Brigades and the 42nd Wing of the 5th Division, in these battles, all the generals contributed a lot, and it stands to reason that everyone should praise each other, but unfortunately Li Yunlong and Ding Wei, the two big demon kings, have to fight each other everywhere, with them, it is polite not to tear down the roof.

As soon as Li Yunlong saw Ding Wei, he gave him a hammer and said; "Okay, you kid picked up the leak and came back, let me tell you, this Ding Erdanzi has been a special chicken thief since he was a child, like the last time he fought with the Central Army of the People's Party, we big guys were all fighting with the enemy, but Ding Erdanzi sneaked out and disarmed the artillery battalion of the Central Army, and got dozens of cannons in vain, and finally we fought with the Central Army to the death, but he took the opportunity to pull up the first artillery battalion in our six brigades.

This time it's the same again, our big guy is stumbling with the mixed second brigade, but Ding Erdanzi secretly played tricks and took the second brigade to ambush the 42nd Wing, and finally our first brigade eliminated the mixed second brigade and shared the credit with other troops, but Ding Erdanzi only got the credit for eliminating the 42nd Wing, big guy, let's talk about it, is this Ding Erdanzi a special chicken thief? ”

Ding Wei was pulled out by Li Yunlong alone and was targeted by the big guys, and Ding Wei, who was familiar with the tactics of pulling one faction and fighting another, immediately retorted: "Let's listen to everyone, what did Li Yunlong say: 'Our first brigade has eliminated the mixed second brigade, and we have to share the credit with other troops', you Li Yunlong bragged that you didn't make a draft, how could the mixed second brigade be wiped out by your first brigade?" ”

As soon as Ding Wei's words came out, the entire conference room suddenly exploded, Li Yunlong said that his first brigade wiped out the second brigade, so didn't the other troops all become soy sauce fighters? Li Yunlong was immediately besieged by everyone and plunged into the vast sea of people's war.

The Fifth Brigade, which was tasked with the task of luring the enemy with the largest casualties, was the first to attack: "Okay, you Li Yunlong, I didn't see how powerful you were in the battle, but you were invincible in the world, and the second brigade was all wiped out by your brigade, so what are we all doing?" Do you cheer you on? ”

Ding Wei fanned the flames beside him: "That's it, since you Li Yunlong are so powerful, why don't you go to heaven!" ”

Sun Youdao also stood up and said, "If it weren't for our artillery brigade to destroy the devil's artillery position, would it be so easy for you to destroy the second brigade?" ”

Li Yunlong was used to bragging, and he didn't open the door for a while, but he leaked his mouth, not only did he not squeeze Ding Wei, but let Ding Wei burn the fire on his body, and he was immediately besieged by the generals of various departments, and he was extremely embarrassed.

Fortunately, his embarrassment did not last long, because Zhang Cheng and the political commissar arrived, and the meeting began immediately.

Zhang Cheng got straight to the point and said: "The reason why everyone was called to a meeting today must have more or less guessed the purpose of this trip. That's right, my goal is the Fifth Division. At present, the 42nd Wing of the Fifth Division has been annihilated by Ding Wei's Second Brigade, and the main force has been dragged by the friendly Ninth Army on the battlefield of Nanhuaihua, which is a God-given opportunity for our instructor to annihilate him! ”

The political commissar still had some doubts at this time: "The main force of the Fifth Division still exists, even if it is confronting Hao Mengling's Ninth Army on the battlefield of Nanhuaihua at this time, it is far from his limit. If a stalemate is formed, and the Japanese army's ability to mobilize is far greater than that of our instructors, then we will be very dangerous.

In addition, I have another concern, on the frontal battlefield of Xinkou, only our instructor is the Eighth Route Army, and the other troops are all Kuomintang troops, if they deliberately drop lotus seeds at the critical moment, then we have to fight to the death with the main force of the Japanese army, which will definitely increase the casualties of our army. ”

The political commissar's concerns were not unreasonable, and the other units of the Eighth Route Army were all engaged in guerrilla warfare in the battlefield behind enemy lines, and only the instructor joined forces with the Kuomintang troops on the frontal battlefield to fight against the main force of the Japanese army, and if the Kuomintang Central Army deliberately made a mistake at a critical moment, it would undoubtedly cause great disasters to the instructors, and there was even the possibility of the entire army being annihilated.

However, the political commissar is not a traverser after all, and he does not know that Hao Mengling, the commander of the Ninth Army, is a patriotic general who was passive in the civil war and active in the War of Resistance Against Japan.

Hao Mengling finally died heroically in this battle of Xinkou, Zhang Cheng undoubtedly believed in his character very much, but unfortunately the others were not traversers, they did not understand Hao Mengling's determination to resist the war to the end, how should Zhang Cheng persuade the worried political commissars and soldiers?

In the end, the meeting still reached a resolution to attack the Fifth Division, in fact, Zhang Cheng did not have a good reason to convince everyone, and in the end, the reason why everyone was in favor of attacking the Fifth Division was nothing more than Zhang Cheng's invincible aura and his great prestige among the instructors.

After reaching an agreement to attack the Fifth Division, Zhang Cheng immediately made combat arrangements, and this time the instructor did not divide the troops again, but decided to launch a surprise attack on the Fifth Division from behind, in an attempt to break the main force of the Fifth Division in one fell swoop as quickly as possible, and then divide and surround it after defeating it, and encroach on it step by step.

At three o'clock in the morning, Zhang Cheng, who had been asleep, received an urgent report from the Eighth Route Army that the Fifth Division had broken through the defense line of the Ninth Army, and all the positions in Nanhuaihua had fallen, and Hao Mengling, commander of the Ninth Army, and Liu Jiaqi, commander of the 54th Division, were shot and killed one after another.

"Oh, it hurts me!" Zhang Cheng screamed sadly, and then slapped his brains again and again, blaming himself and feeling annoyed, he remembered that in history, General Hao Mengling was shot and killed when he led the Ninth Army to counterattack the Fifth Division at two o'clock in the morning on the 16th, because of his butterfly wings, Zhang Cheng thought that this scene would not happen again, but the strong historical inertia played a role.

"What? The Ninth Army was defeated, and General Hao Mengling died? The political commissar who got up overnight exclaimed.

"Damn! How could I have forgotten such an important thing! Zhang Cheng was full of remorse, stroking the Bekning pistol that Hao Mengling gave him, remembering that a short meeting with Hao Mengling before had been forever separated, and he couldn't help but burst into tears, and then took off his military hat and bowed deeply to the Nanhuaihua position where Hao Mengling died heroically, paying tribute to this national hero who served the country with death.
