Chapter 453: Unprecedented
When Zhang Xinghan saw Liu Jianguo, he could hardly believe his eyes, Liu Jianguo at this time was unkempt and his military uniform was tattered, and there was a world of difference from the high-spirited commander-in-chief of the group army at the time of separation. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It was daytime, and Zhang Xinghan led his troops to besiege Tangyin County for another night, but the 4th and 25th Divisions of the 17th Army in the area of Anyang and Handan still did not move.
Zhang Xinghan, who knew that the enemy would not be fooled again, was planning to order his troops to capture Tangyin, capture Xu Tingyao alive, eliminate the military headquarters of the 17th Army, destroy its command system, and then return to Puyang and Liu Jianguo.
But he didn't expect that overnight, Liu Jianguo came to him in a hurry like a beggar with a group of routed soldiers.
=Pig=Pig=Island=As soon as he saw Zhang Xinghan in the novel, before Zhang Xinghan asked, Liu Jianguo knelt down in front of Zhang Xinghan with a plop, and cried loudly: "The general seat, incompetent, was attacked by the enemy inside and outside the night, resulting in the annihilation of the air defense regiment, and the 2nd regiment also suffered heavy losses, nearly 20,000 prisoners were all rescued by the Puyang defenders, please punish the general seat severely!" ”
Zhang Xinghan really couldn't believe it, although Liu Jianguo didn't have any amazing military talent, he was also a veteran general in the army who had followed him for many years and experienced a hundred battles.
He even left him an air defense regiment and a mechanized infantry regiment, needless to say, the equipment of the infantry regiment of the Northeast Army is second to none in the world.
The most important thing is the air defense regiment, which is an air defense regiment with four battalions, more than 2,000 people, equipped with more than 30 88mm German anti-aircraft guns and dozens of anti-aircraft machine guns.
These weapons don't sound like much, but their power is definitely comparable to the firepower of an ordinary national army unit with a division or more.
In particular, the 88mm anti-aircraft gun, which has been in service in the Northeast Army since it has been in service, has been invincible and has never been defeated.
Zhang Xinghan first stretched out his hand to help up this loyal subordinate who had followed him from birth to death since 918, and said with a pleasant face: "The founding of the country, it's not a big deal, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers." What do you cry about? Don't cry. ”
Liu Jianguo wiped away his tears and said guiltily: "Boss, I'm sorry for you, it was my negligence that caused the overnight reversal of the Puyang battle situation and caused immeasurable losses to our army, I have your trust!" ”
"Okay, I'm not saying it, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers." Zhang Xinghan stroked his back and said, "Tell me, what happened at that time?" ”
Liu Jianguo nodded and said, "Last night." The military affairs were arranged at the humble post, and while they were resting, they suddenly received a report of an attack on the air defense regiment.
At that time, his subordinates still had to hold nearly 20,000 prisoners, and it was impossible to concentrate all the forces to rush to the aid of the air defense regiment, until I rushed to support with a battalion and troops directly under the regiment.
Unexpectedly, the air defense regiment had been defeated, most of the soldiers were killed, and only a few escaped.
The air defense regiment was attacked on its belly and back. Caught off guard and failed miserably.
When he led the air defense regiment and reinforcements to launch a counterattack on the enemy and recapture our anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, he was attacked by the enemy's intensive fire with anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns.
The brethren were not afraid to charge to the death. But it fell in pieces.
In view of the heavy casualties, he ordered the troops to withdraw for the time being, and wanted to send a telegram to the headquarters for help, but at this time another Central Army came from our regimental headquarters and the place where the prisoners were held.
The regimental radio and communications personnel were all wiped out.
Those captives also joined the battle. Under the attack from both sides, although our army is equipped with advanced equipment, it cannot resist it. In particular, they used captured anti-aircraft guns and machine guns to inflict heavy casualties on the brothers.
The remnants of the humble army fought and retreated, and after getting rid of the pursuit of the Central Army, there were only three or five hundred brothers left around him. ”
As he spoke, Liu Jianguo couldn't help but burst into tears.
Listening to Liu Jianguo's introduction, although Zhang Xinghan did not participate in the battle, he could also imagine the scene at that time.
Under the siege of the enemy's superior forces and the anti-aircraft guns of the air defense regiment and such large-scale killer weapons, it has to be said that Liu Jianguo was able to break out of the encirclement.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that the Northeast Army is well-equipped and has strong assault firepower, otherwise the outcome is likely to be the annihilation of the entire army.
In that way, it will directly refresh the record of the Northeast Frontier Army's first regimental annihilation of its own army.
Even so, this fiasco was also the worst since he formed the Northeast Frontier Army.
The entire two regiments suffered more than 90 percent of the battle losses, and they also lost all their light and heavy weapons, and the more than 300 people who broke out of the encirclement were also wounded.
After thinking about it, Zhang Xinghan couldn't help but sigh and said: "Hey, it seems that there are many powerful people in the Central Army who are both wise and brave, in this battle of Puyang, the enemy's reinforcements will grasp the timing of the sneak attack just right, and the progress of the entire battle is all within its calculations."
Jianguo, you are not unjustly defeated! ”
Liu Jianguo lowered his head in shame, and said: "The general seat is right, Wang Yaowu succeeded in this sneak attack, but he didn't accept the lowly defeat, if it wasn't for the 20,000 prisoners, it is still unknown who will kill the deer, next time I must defeat him, and I will be ashamed of Xue last night!" ”
"Wang Yaowu? This person is the backbone general of the Whampoa department, known for his calmness and calmness, I didn't expect this strange talent, but I underestimated him before. Zhang Xinghan also thought that Wang Yaowu commanded the battle, and couldn't help but nod his head in praise.
"Boss, what should we do next? Is it to kill back to Puyang? Liu Jianguo said with revenge.
"No, for the time being, the enemy situation in Puyang is unknown, don't worry, let the Secret Bureau and the Air Force find a way to find out the situation in Puyang first." Zhang Xinghan waved his hand and said: "Now, first capture Tangyin County and capture Xu Tingyao alive before making plans." ”
"Then please allow Jianguo to lead the assault." Liu Jianguo immediately asked.
"Okay." Zhang Xinghan nodded in agreement, and immediately ordered Liu Jianguo, Guo Zhong and others to prepare for the attack.
………………
Xu Chang rested for a night with a melancholy mood, and Chairman Jiang got up early, with obvious tiredness between his eyebrows, which shows that he did not rest well last night.
Under the service of the attendants, Chairman Jiang finished washing and just wanted to go to the restaurant for breakfast, but saw Xiao Zhuge Bai Chongxi hurriedly coming towards him.
"Jiansheng, why are you so happy?" Chairman Jiang asked inexplicably.
Bai Chongxi was so happy that he even forgot to salute, and said excitedly: "Bench, big victory, big victory." ”
"Where's the big win?" Chairman Jiang was taken aback and asked eagerly.
"I just received a good news from Wang Yaowu from Puyang, last night Zhang Lingfu led his troops to ask Wang Yaowu to join forces, and the surprise attack on the troops of the Northeast Army besieging the city was successful, and then the two main regiments of the Northeast Army outside the city were completely annihilated, and nearly 20,000 prisoners of our army were rescued.
In addition, a large number of advanced German-style and American-style equipment were also captured, and the situation in Puyang was reversed overnight, and this battle was the biggest loss of Zhang Xinghan's Northeast Frontier Army since it became an army, which can be called an unprecedented victory! Bai Chongxi's excited glasses were crooked, and he didn't realize it, and said.
Chairman Jiang was stunned at first, and then said in disbelief: "What Jiansheng said is true? ”
"It's true, this is an autographed good news from Wang Yaowu." Bai Chongxi handed a telegram to Chairman Chiang.
Chairman Jiang took the telegram and looked at it, and his hands couldn't help but tremble and said: "Okay, good, well done, we need such a victory so much, as strong as the Northeast Frontier Army is not invincible, great." ”
Bai Chongxi also nodded approvingly on the side, since Zhang Xinghan was born in the 918 incident, hundreds of battles have been fought in large and small battles, and the Northeast Army under his command has never been defeated.
It has always created a mythical status quo of the invincibility of the Northeast Army for their internal and external armies.
Now, in the first battle of Puyang, the myth of the invincibility of the Northeast Frontier Army has been broken, which will greatly boost the confidence and morale of the officers and men of the Central Army and other local armies.
After the excitement, Chairman Jiang asked attentively: "By the way, what position is this Zhang Lingfu currently in, who graduated from that military academy?" ”
Bai Chongxi knew that the battle of Puyang and Zhang Lingfu's fame were enough to become famous all over the world, and Chairman Jiang was planning to reuse him, of course, with the temperament of the old Jiang, he would definitely ask about his background.
Bai Chongxi also admired Zhang Lingfu's performance, and immediately said truthfully: "Zhang Lingfu is currently the lieutenant colonel and battalion commander of the 51st Division and the 59th Brigade, and is a student who graduated from the fourth infantry department of Huangpu, and his hometown is from Xi'an, Shaanxi.
It is a rare talent who is both civil and military. ”
"Really? Okay, it's good to be from the Whampoa department, so it's also my student. Chairman Jiang was overjoyed, and nodded again and again in praise: "Such a rare talent of wisdom and courage is really a pillar of the party and the state, and the first battle of Puyang is to save the war situation in a critical situation, pass on my order, and immediately promote Zhang Lingfu to the commander of the 59th Brigade of the 51st Division and the deputy commander of the 51st Division, and assist Wang Yaowu to stick to Puyang and make new contributions to the party and the state." ”
Bai Chongxi smiled slightly on the side, and didn't comment too much, with Zhang Lingfu's background and this amazing performance, it is reasonable that he can be promoted several levels at once.
No matter what the outcome of the Hebei battle this time is, Bai Chongxi can foresee that Zhang Lingfu's future is definitely bright.
After arranging the commendation, Chairman Jiang turned his head and said to Bai Chongxi: "Jiansheng, now that our army has won the victory of Puyang and reversed the unfavorable situation in Puyang, what should we do next, what do you think?" ”
Bai Chongxi also said politely: "Commission, the victory of Puyang not only caused Zhang Xinghan to lose the precious strength of two regiments, but also won me a rare respite.
In my opinion, let Hu Zongnan send one or two regiments of troops to smuggle across the Yellow River to supplement the combat strength of the Puyang defenders, with Zhang Lingfu and Wang Yaowu holding on to Puyang, plus Tang Enbo and Guan Linzheng's distant echo, it will definitely be able to contain Zhang Xinghan for some time and win time for the arrival of our main reinforcements in the south of the Yangtze River. ”
