Chapter 123: Chen Mosong's New Battle Plan (Supplemental Edition)
Lu Wencai smiled slightly, "We must go hand in hand, fight steadily, treat each other as horns, and act step by step." Pen~Fun~Ge www.biquge.info We should not engage in any assault corps on the southern front to penetrate into the enemy's depth, but all units will attack and advance on the entire front at the same time. The troops should not advance too deeply, and they would stop after advancing about 20 miles every day, and then build fortifications on the spot to prevent the communist army from attacking. As for the northern front, the terrain is complex, and the action needs to be more cautious. For example, the communist area is like a pond, and the communist army is a fish in the water. Commander Tang advocated plunging into the water to catch fish, which might not catch the fish and might be bitten by the fish. I mean pumping the water out step by step, so that the communist army is finally completely exposed. At that time, the water had been drained, and were you afraid that he would make waves? ”
Sitting next to Zhong Lifu was a middle-aged officer with a rectangular face and high cheekbones, the general of the 46th Army, Chang Cheng Guizhang, after Lu Wencai finished speaking, he waved his hand and said with a smile: "Commander Lu's words are reasonable, and it is a safe way to protect under the existing conditions of our army." Of course, this tactic does not exclude the rational part of Commander Tang's plan. The attack from the north and south, the blockade of the western front, and the pumping of water at all levels are enough to control the communist army to death! ”
Everyone nodded when they heard this, and even Chen Mosong, who had been silent and silent, showed a smile and nodded gently.
Tang Jinshan frowned, "Commander Lu's pumping tactics require a premise, that is, the communist army must honestly lie in the water and remain motionless, obediently watching us drain the water layer by layer, until we are caught!" However, as far as I know, there is a flying fish among the fish, which can jump out of the water to attack opponents or escape. What kind of fish is the communist army? Flying fish, of course. When our army pumped water, this flying fish would definitely jump out of the water and attack me, and its attack power was amazing! Who here can be sure that this attack will not turn into a second Ren Hewei? As for its ability to escape, it's also amazing! Last year, our army surrounded the communist army in the Central Plains so tightly that it was impassable. But in the end, they still jumped out of the water and fled! ”
Speaking of this, he picked up a photo on the table and raised it, "Everyone see, why did the communist army overhaul multi-story field fortifications?" Isn't it just to obstruct our army from pumping? If our army wants to pump water, it must first dismantle the layers of obstacles set up by the communist army from the edge of the pond to the water. What to dismantle? Of course, it is artillery, and such a fight will also consume a lot of weapons and ammunition, and the results are very small. Not long ago, the Battle of Linhe lasted 13 days, and the weapons and ammunition consumed by our unit in the first 12 days was 80 percent of the total consumption. The consumption is so great, but nothing is gained. We are not Americans, we can't afford to consume it! ”
Lu Wencai frowned and did not speak immediately. Sun Yunyun raised her head again and secretly sent autumn spinach to Tang Jinshan.
In the lounge, a group of male and female attachés wearing yellow tweed American military uniforms sat on several couches against the wall. They waited for the meeting to disperse so that they could go back with their respective commanders. But the delay in the meeting made them anxiously wait. Some female attachés took out their powder boxes and rubbed incense powder on their faces in the mirror, some male attachés leaned on the sofa and closed their eyes to recuperate, and some male and female attachés gathered together around the coffee table to play playing cards. A few reporters were bored and simply joined the poker war.
Chen Shuxiang smiled when she saw a photo of Feng Tao posted on the lid of the powder box of female ensign Jin Yuxin next to her, "Miss Jin, are you also honey?" ”
"Yes," Jin Yuxin is in her early twenties, petite, with a round face and a round mouth. "It's been four years since he's been missing, but I've been thinking about him."
"Yo," Xu Li, who was playing cards, looked up and saw Liu Yan sitting with them, so he quipped, "You are all honey, but you really smell like each other." Everyone burst into laughter, but the three honeys pursed their lips indifferently.
Lieutenant Bai Lu, who had big eyes and long eyelashes, and second lieutenant Tian Xiaozhen, who had thin eyebrows and small dimples, and several other female attachés were obviously not convinced, so they pouted and pouted, "Miss Xu, let's not hide it, we are also honey." ”
When Shang Xiaoqin and the others heard this, they immediately sneered.
In the conference room, the officers turned their eyes to Chen Mosong at this time and listened to him. Chen Mosong stood up slowly, pressed his hands on the table, and coughed deliberately, "In this battle, our army will adopt the policy of flanking the north and south and blocking the western front, and the specific plan is: The 12th Army, the 46th Army, and the 73rd Army will form the Northern Front Corps, and the commander will be Lu Wencai. ”
Lu Wencai hurriedly stood up, put his hands flat, and replied, "Yes!" ”
Chen Mosong continued: "The corps moved south along the road from Quancheng to the Lu River and quickly captured the Lu River. Oh, General Balgaut wants to send three officers of the advisory group deep into the forward units of our army, so that he can get first-hand information about our army's war against the communists. I think let's let them go to the Northern Corps. ”
Lu Wencai said, "Yes!" Then he frowned again, "What if they are pointing fingers?" ”
Chen Mosong's mouth pursed, "The Chinese army only accepts the command of Chairman Chiang, and the words of the Americans only have reference value." If you think your ideas are better than their advice, you can ignore them. ”
Lu Wencai happily said, "Yes!" Then he sat down.
Chen Mosong continued: "The 5th Army, the 72nd Army, the 75th Army, and the 85th Army form the Western Front Corps, and the commander is Wei Jinping. ”
Wei Jinping, who had a big chin, immediately stood up and replied, "Yes!" ”
"The corps deployed defenses along the Yuncheng area and resolutely blocked the retreat of the communist army fleeing westward."
Wei Jinping said, "Yes!" Then he sat down.
"Each army on the southern front formed three corps, and the 26th Army, the 51st Army, and the First Fast Column formed the first corps on the southern front, with commander Ma Yuying."
Ma Yuying, who had small eyes, hurriedly stood up, "Yes!" ”
"The 7th Army, the 74th Army, the 83rd Army, and the Sixth Fast Column form the 2nd Corps of the Southern Front, and the commander is Tang Jinshan."
Tang Jinshan hurriedly stood up and replied, "Yes!" ”
"The 11th Army, the 25th Army, and the 64th Army form the 3rd Corps of the Southern Front, and the commander is Zhong Lifu."
Zhong Lifu stood up and replied: "Yes!" ”
Chen Mosong looked at the three of them, and then said: "The corps of the southern front launched an attack on the communist army in front of them in three ways, and stopped after advancing about ten miles every day, and then built field fortifications on the spot to prevent the communist army from sneaking attack. After crossing the Lu River, the corps can launch a general attack on the county town of Luhe, and strive to join forces with the northern corps heading south as soon as possible. ”
"Yes!" The three of them replied together, then sat down. After Tang Jinshan took his seat, he frowned, his two-wing outflanking and centripetal assault plan was not adopted.
Chen Mosong continued: "The 20th Army, the 59th Army, the 64th Army, and the 77th Army are deployed in the rear of the Southern Front Corps, as reserves, waiting for dispatch. ”
"Yes!" The four commanders stood up at the same time to answer.
Chen Mosong continued: "Chief of Staff, Chief of Operations,"
Wen Da and Yan Guangxi, who was sitting on the west side of the conference table, hurriedly stood up, "Yes!"
"In accordance with the spirit of today's meeting, the General Staff Department will draw up an operational plan as soon as possible, with five copies from the headquarters and one copy from each army commander, and the start time of the operation will be set for three days later, that is, at 7 o'clock on 12 January."
Wenda and Yan Guangxi said "Yes!" "Sit down.
Chen Mosong finally said: "Ladies and gentlemen, this battle of Luhe is related to the fate and future of the party and the state. Everyone must take the lead, strive for the first credit, and live up to the high expectations of the president, have you heard? ”
"I hear you." The officers stood up together and replied in unison: "I am willing to be loyal to the party and the state, and die for it!" ”
In the war room at the west end of the second floor, dozens of staff officers were lying on their desks tracing and drawing lines, tapping on the typewriter keyboard, and began to get busy.
By the time the meeting was over, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening. According to the camp arrangement, the participants first stayed in Jinyan for one night, and during the day watched a performance by a consolation group in Nanjing to express condolences to the national army, and then returned to their respective stations.
The officers walked out of the room, their attachés following with briefcases. The female attaché's high-heeled leather shoes and the male attaché's round scalp shoes walked on the marble floor, making a crisp and rhythmic sound, "Knock knock". Under the bright lights in the corridor, the American-style leather bag that swayed back and forth with the arms of the attachés reflected a glimmer of light, and the oval stainless steel snap buttons on the leather bag were like mirrors, and the figures were actually flashing.
Liu Yan, Chen Shuxiang, Xu Li, Jin Yuxin, Bai Lu, and Tian Xiaozhen walked at the end, and when they walked to the bathroom at the staircase, Bai Lu handed the leather bag in his hand to Xu Li, "Miss Xu, take the bag for me, I want to make it easier." ”
Xu Li waited for a while, but when he didn't see Bai Lu exposed, he couldn't help but ask, "Miss Bai, can you come out sooner?" ”
Bai Lu said inside: "I'm sorry, I have to relieve my hand, Miss Xu, you wait for me for a while, I'm sorry for you." ”
Xu Li was the only one at the door of the bathroom, with the battle plan he had just made in his purse.
At night, the sky was densely packed with stars, and some fine clouds were scattered. The moon showed half of her face and cast her cold gaze on the earth, adding a layer of chill to the winter night.
