In a county town hundreds of miles away from the Linhe River, there is a deep house compound surrounded by eaves and arches, red bricks and green tiles, and pines and cypresses in the middle of the street, which has been requisitioned by the authorities as the army headquarters. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The courtyard was filled with sentries in dark green steel helmets, holding American submachine guns and eyeing each other, adding to the tension in the quiet and elegant building.

In the front yard, a few generals in yellow military uniforms sat around the Eight Immortals table in the center of the ground, and an American-made radio was placed on the long table against the west wall. At this moment the radio is broadcasting the broadcast of the Jianghuai People's Radio, and the generals are listening.

The doors and windows of the room were closed, and the brazier next to the table of the Eight Immortals was flickering. Although the cold wind outside could be heard clearly, it was warm inside. Several electric lamps hung from the intricately carved beams, and the golden plum blossoms on the collars of the generals, the gold stars on the epaulettes, the medals on their chests, and the brass buttons on their uniforms all glittered under the bright lights. However, the faces of the generals were very gloomy, and they drooped their heads one by one.

At this moment, the tall and spacious room was very quiet, and only the sonorous voice of the female announcer of the Communist Radio echoed in the room.

"Comrade Commander-in-Chief, when we celebrate your birthday this year, the self-defense war in the JF area is on a rainy day and the rainbow is rising. Next year, when we celebrate your birthday again, the revolutionary situation will surely be triumphant, and the wind will be full of red flags!

……”

A general with four gold stars on his shoulders and a five-medal watch on his chest stood up and turned off the radio, then turned around and stared at everyone. He is about fifty years old, medium height, thin build, square face, high cheekbones, thin lips, he is the highest commander here, *** Jiangbei Battalion Director, Army First Class General Chen Mosong, the word Xi. Because he served as the commander of the theater during the Anti-Japanese War, everyone is still used to calling him Chief Chen.

(Author's note: Xingying is a military institution that began to be established during the encirclement and suppression of the Red Army in the thirties, and continued to be used during and after the Anti-Japanese War, the full name is the chairman of the Military Commission of the National Government. The commanders of the various camps are nominally the highest commanders in the areas under their jurisdiction, but the actual powers of the commanders are very large, some have no name, and some hold real power. After July 1946, it was renamed the chairman of the National Government, but it was still customarily called Xingying, and after May 1948, Xingying was abolished. ）

"Did you hear that? Of course, the Communist Party is bragging! Moreover, the cowhide tube used for bragging this time is us, which is provided free of charge! What do you think about this? Chen Mosong stared at everyone indifferently.

Everyone felt that it was difficult to talk about it, so they continued to remain silent. At this time, the room was quiet, and it was a little embarrassingly quiet.

After a while, Lieutenant General Wen Da, the thin and tall chief of staff, with a wide forehead, small eyes, and big ears, raised his head and put on a smiling face, "Chief Chen doesn't have to blame himself too much, although the battle of Linhe was lost, this is a local defeat after all. However, as far as the overall situation is concerned, our army is still victorious. In the past few months, the Communist Party has almost lost all the Jianghuai communist areas, and only a small piece of land is left in the west, and there are only four empty cities north of the Huai River in the east. A few days ago, some Communist Party personnel saw that the defeat of **** was decided, and they successively returned to the government. Afraid that the trees would fall and scatter, he used the life-saving straw that he was lucky to pick up in the battle of the Lin River, in an attempt to deceive the world. In doing so, the Communist Party is, in a vulgar vernacular in the Jianghuai region, to take off its pants and cover its face. ”

Sitting on the left side of Wenda is Lu Wencai, the commander of the 73rd Army, who is in his forties, tall, with a round and bald head, and his facial features are like knife carvings, which appear sharp and angular. He found that Chen Mosong was in a very bad mood today, and when he saw Wen Dadui's smiling face and saying good things to comfort the chief, he also pretended to be a smiling foil. When he heard the words "take off his pants and cover his face", he couldn't help but burst out laughing, and at this moment, he really laughed.

It turned out that rural people in many parts of China at that time, regardless of men, women, children, landlords, old wealth, and poor middle peasants, did not wear underwear, and wearing underwear was still the trendy lifestyle of urban people at that time. Rural people wear single pants in summer and cotton pants in winter. As soon as the person took off his pants, the beautiful dick in it was naturally fully open to the outside world. Take off your pants and cover your face, which means that you are making a fool of yourself, take off your pants and cover your face, but the dick below is open to the public. Others can't see your face, but they can see your dick.

"The problem is that the Communist Party is taking off our pants! And it's the pants of our elite workhorse! Chen Mosong didn't laugh, he slapped the Eight Immortals table, his eyes erupted with fire, and Wenda, Lu Wencai and others quickly lowered their heads.

Of course, Chen Mosong was annoyed, and the defeat in the Battle of Linhe made him lose face.

In early October, the troops under the command of Chen Mosong captured Chuzhou, the capital of the Jianghuai Communist Region, and Lao Chiang immediately ordered the promotion of his fellow ZJ to the rank of first-class general of the army. Chen Mosong did not forget that the rain had wet the ground, and immediately gave him a group of subordinates to be promoted. On the 17th, at a press conference, he triumphantly said: "At most, three to five months will be able to defeat the Communist Party." However, a few days later, in the battle of Linhe, his troops suffered a defeat, which made him, who was still proud of the spring breeze, suddenly touch a nose of ash and a big bad head.

Just like *** giving ****** a birthday is not a birthday for the sake of longevity, the Communist Party is not giving Zhu De a birthday for the sake of simply making a birthday. After the outbreak of the civil war, relying on the strong advantage of military strength, *** successively occupied a large area of land in the JF area. At the beginning of October, the first army occupied Zhangjiakou, the capital of the JF district of Shanxi, Chahar and Hebei, and Andong, the capital of the JF district of Liaodong in the northeast, and the first side was even more proud, so they took advantage of the opportunity of October 31, which was the ******'s birthday, to celebrate their birthdays, and to airdrop all kinds of birthday greetings or hit the PLA positions with propaganda bombs, so as to warn the officers and soldiers of the People's Liberation Army that ****** is the natural leader of the so-called whole of China, and there is no way out if they continue to follow the Communist Party. It is an attempt to cause psychological confusion among the officers and men of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) and to lure the irresolute elements in the PLA to defect.

In order to crack down on the arrogance of the Communist Party, the Communist Party also took advantage of the opportunity of Zhu De's 60th birthday on December 1 to hold a series of birthday celebrations, aiming to stabilize people's hearts and boost morale. On the eve of Zhu De's birthday, the PLA has successively won some military victories in various theaters, and the military significance of these victories is not particularly great, but because it happened in the west of the birthday celebration in the west of the birthday celebration, it naturally has a strong and whole significance. As a result, all theaters talked about their victories in their birthday telegrams.

Chen Mosong originally wanted to capture the Lin River as a birthday gift to ****** from the Jiangbei camp. Unexpectedly, the attack failed, but this became the opponent's birthday gift to Zhu De, and now the opponent is promoting this matter on the radio station, and also listed some trophies from the battle of Lin He, which pot is not opened, how can he not be annoyed?

At this moment, Chen Mosong sat on the chair, his anger was still unsettled, and the muscles on his cheeks were still jumping and jumping, "The Communist Party actually gave a pair of leather shoes to their commander-in-chief Zhu De as a birthday gift!" It's so damning! It's so damning! What's the deal with these leather shoes? Could it really be that it was taken off from the captured officers of our army who were the same in size and shoe size as Zhu De, even with their pants and shoes? Well? ”

Wenda realized that it turned out that Chen Mosong was angry about a pair of leather shoes given to Zhu De by Jianghuai ****. The words he just said "take off your pants and cover your face" were originally intended to comfort Chief Chen, and **** boasted about the so-called lucky Lin He's victory to cover up that he had lost three-quarters of his embarrassment in the Jianghuai Communist Area, as if he was taking off his pants and covering his face. He originally wanted to pour cold water on Chief Chen's anger with this, but he didn't expect that these words would add fuel to Chen Mosong's anger again.

In Chen Mosong's view, it was not the miscellaneous army that suffered defeat in Linhe, but the elite of the Central Army that they were proud of. The defeat of Lin He is equivalent to **** taking off the pants of their Central Army elite to cover their ugliness, but at the same time, it allows outsiders to see the beautiful second child of the Central Army elite - the Central Army elite can also be defeated, and even the leather shoes of **** officers have become trophies.

Yan Guangxi, a mid-tale man in his thirties and a square face, glanced at his peers next to him, and the long-faced major general Gao Shen Linxi, and then looked at others, and saw that everyone was silent, so he raised his head and said in a snort: "A few days ago, a motor transport team of our army transported materials to the troops on the front line of our Linhe, and unfortunately strayed into the **** position. ”

Chen Mosong looked at everyone with a very serious expression, "Everyone, the battle of Linhe is by no means a partial defeat, this battle happened on the eve of the Communist Party's birthday for Zhu De, and the impact is particularly bad!" This battle exposed the Achilles' heel of our army. If these weaknesses are not overcome, we will suffer even greater setbacks! Therefore, I had to order all units to suspend the offensive, conscientiously sum up the lessons learned, rest the troops, adjust their deployment, and prepare for the next offensive. Remember, the battle of the Linhe River is a great shame for our army! As the saying goes, those who know shame are brave. I asked everyone to listen to the communist radio broadcast, the purpose is one, we must work hard in the next battle, regain our strength, and be sure to completely annihilate the Jianghuai ****, and live up to the high expectations of the party-state. Do you understand? ”

"Got it!" The officers stood up together and replied loudly, "Resolutely wash away the shame of Linhe and completely eliminate Jianghuai ****." ”

Chen Mosong's gloomy face began to smile, "Very good, it's up to you to attack next time, you guys should prepare to go." He took out a document at this time, "This is the operational opinion of the American advisory group on the next offensive, take a look." ”

The main content of this document is to suggest that Jiang Jun discover the **** defense loopholes in time, choose a breakthrough, and avoid dispersing troops. In the document, the US side also promised to increase the amount of arms aid to Chiang's army within this month. After reading it, the officers saluted Chen Mosong, then opened the door and began to walk out.
