Chapter 376: Finishing in One Battle
readx;?“ Chairman, Chairman, no. www.biquge.info The panicked shouts of the communications soldiers resounded throughout the Ningxia Provincial Chairman compound.
Ma Hongkui stood up from the conference table and asked, "What's the matter?" So loud? ”
The signal soldier didn't have time to salute, so he said: "Chairman Ma, it's not good, the defense line along the river in Ningxian County has been broken through by the Northeast Frontier Army, and one of our cavalry brigades was hit by the enemy's air force in the counterattack, and the whole army was annihilated.
Now, the Northeast Frontier Army has crossed the river and is advancing towards the county seat of Ningxian County. ”
"What?" Ma Hongkui was taken aback when he heard this, and sat on the chair with a shocked face.
"Strictly order the defenders of Ning County to defend to the end, reinforcements will arrive soon!" Ma Hongbin on the side immediately decided.
After taking away the communication troops, Ma Hongbin said to Ma Hongkui again: "Shaoyun, the situation is critical, we have to prepare for the worst." ”
"What's the worst?" Ma Hongkui came back to his senses suddenly, looked at Ma Hongbin, and suddenly shouted: "Send a telegram to Ma Bufang immediately, and ask him to send reinforcements quickly, quickly!" ”

Returning to Suicheng, Zhang Xinghan and Jiang Baili were discussing the military situation in front of the map, Guo Zhong walked in at this time, and reported with joy: "Commander, chief of staff, call from the front, Zhang Tingshu and Taodong Fan led their troops to break through the Yellow River defense line of the Ma Jiajun, and now they have troops under the city of Linning County, and it is expected that they will be able to enter Yinchuan City tomorrow." ”
"Huh?" Hearing this, Zhang Xinghan glanced at Jiang Baili and asked, "Chief of Staff, you said that if Ma Bufang's reinforcements are at the fastest speed, how long will it take to reach Yinchuan?" ”
"Even if the reinforcements mobilized by Ma Bufang are part of Gansu, it will take a week to reach Yinchuan at the earliest." Jiang Baili replied.
"A week, is the advance of our army a little too fast?" Zhang Xinghan asked thoughtfully.
Jiang Baili nodded and suggested: "Commander, in order to ensure that the main force of the Ma Jiajun can be gathered and annihilated in Yinchuan, and the work will be completed in one battle, I think." It's time to order the front-line troops to halt the pace of the offensive. ”
"Send a telegram to Zhang Tingshu and the Taodong Domain, and you are not allowed to capture the county seat of Ningxian County within five days, otherwise the military law will be engaged.
At the same time, Shen Ke was ordered to advance to Shizuishanzi seven days later, arriving one day early and one day late, and being dealt with by military law! Zhang Xinghan suddenly commanded.
Jiang Baili arched his hand with a smile and said, "The commander is wise, Baili admires." ”
Guo Zhong looked at the two of them in confusion, but still answered the order and left.
……………………
Outside Yongning City, in the joint headquarters of the 213th Division and the 214th Division, Zhang Tingshu and Taodong Fan were discussing the next attack with great interest.
Prepare to break through Yongning in one fell swoop. Take the lead in attacking Yinchuan and seize the lead to show loyalty.
A communications staff officer walked in with a telegram in his hand, saluted the two and said, "Divisional seat, Division Commander Tao, the general seat is calling." ”
Zhang Tingshu stretched out his hand to take the telegram, and after reading it with Taodong Domain, he said with a surprised face: "Brother Tao, what does the commander-in-chief mean by this?" Don't take Yongning County within five days? What kind of military order is this? ”
Tao Dongfan smiled bitterly and shook his head. Since ancient times, I have only heard the commander-in-chief order his subordinates to attack with all their might, and I have never heard of such a military order.
Presumably, the general seat ordered this, so there must be his arrangement. ”
"Whatever he arranges, just to be on the safe side. I think we should call back as soon as possible to make sure, because if the correspondent sent the telegram by mistake and delayed the fighter, it would not be good. Zhang Tingshu said cautiously.
"Hmm. I agree, call back and ask. Tao Dongfan nodded in agreement, and the two urgently ordered the communication soldiers to call Zhang Xinghan to inquire.
Meanwhile. The 212th Division and other units, which were advancing towards Wuhai, also received Zhang Xinghan's telegram order.
After listening to the report of the staff officers, Shen Ke, the commander of the 212th Division, was also confused, and said with a puzzled face: "It's strange, could it be that something happened in the rear?" Otherwise, how could the head office give us such a military order? This is clearly a deliberate attempt to slow down our march. ”
"Master, no matter what, let's call back and confirm." A staff officer suggested.
"Well, you have to ask, you immediately send a telegram to the commander-in-chief and the chief of staff in my name, asking to confirm this order." Shen Ke nodded.
It didn't take long for the staff officers to go and return, and Shen Ke hurriedly asked, "How is it?" Did the main seat call back? ”
The staff officer nodded and said, "Division, the headquarters orders us to immediately carry out the military order, and those who violate the order will be severely punished." ”
Although Shen Ke hesitated, he quickly said to the staff officer: "Immediately order all regiments to stop advancing immediately." ”
"Yes" After the staff officer turned around and took the order, Shen Ke still muttered to himself with a puzzled face: It's strange, what does the chief seat want to do?
At the same time, Zhang Xinghan also received a call back from Zhang Tingshu and others, and the content of the call was the same.
Zhang Tingshu, Tao Dongfan and others did not dare to hesitate any longer, and immediately ordered the troops to stop the attack and stand by in place, and at the same time sent troops to guard the crossing of the Yellow River, preparing to receive the follow-up troops to cross the river.
……………………
Two days have passed in a blink of an eye, and Yinchuan City.
"Shaoyun, how is the direction of Yongning?" Ma Hongbin came to the conference room and asked.
Ma Hongkui said with a puzzled face: "According to the report of Yongning County, the offensive of the Northeast Frontier Army has weakened a lot, and they have hardly attacked in the past two days, but are on standby in place, which is really confusing!" ”
"Didn't attack much? What's going on here? What exactly do they want to do? Ma Hongbin was confused when he heard this.
Ma Hongkui shook his head and said: "I can't figure it out either, not only is the enemy's move towards Yongning County intriguing, but even the northeast border guards who are moving south in the north have slowed down their southward speed, and they are still advancing at a rapid pace north of Wuhai." ”
"Forget it, no matter what they want to do, but this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime precious respite, and in five days at most, Ma Bufang's reinforcements will arrive.
At that time, we will be able to have a decisive battle with Zhang Xinghan, and if they do not attack, we will also drive them across the Yellow River. Ma Hongbin said.
Ma Hongkui nodded undeniably, although what Ma Hongbin said was the truth, he always had an ominous premonition in his heart, but he couldn't figure out where this ominous premonition came from for a while.
……………………
The next five days passed in the blink of an eye, and in these five days, the Northern Route Army of the Northeast Frontier Army was still advancing like a turtle, and it had just captured Wuhai and was advancing towards Shisanzuizi.
The main forces of the three divisions of the Northeast Frontier Army on the South Road had all crossed the river, but they adopted a strategy of encircling but not attacking Yongning County.
Basically, the connection between Yongning County and Yinchuan was cut off.
On this day, Ma Bufang's reinforcements finally arrived in Yinchuan.
Ma Bufang knows the truth of cold lips and teeth, so this time not only did the elite of Qingma come, but also personally led the team to rush to Yinchuan in the starry night.
Knowing that Ma Bufang was coming, Ma Hongkui and Ma Hongbin were overjoyed and went out of the city to greet them in person.
Gui Sui City, Northeast Frontier Army Temporary Headquarters.
Jiang Baili reported to Zhang Xinghan: "Commander, according to the report of our Air Force Reconnaissance and Secrecy Bureau, the Qingma reinforcements arrived in Yinchuan City this morning, and it is not ruled out that they will take advantage of the night to attack tonight, the siege of Yongning County." ”
Zhang Xinghan smoked a cigarette and looked at the map and said: "Okay, the time is ripe to besiege Yinchuan, immediately order all divisions on the front line to immediately speed up the attack and march, I will encircle Yinchuan City in two days!" ”
"Yes!" Jiang Baili nodded happily in response, and immediately took the order.
Yongning County, after receiving Zhang Xinghan's order, Zhang Tingshu and Taodong Fan were overjoyed, and said: "Great, in the past seven days, Lao Tzu has been going crazy, pass on my order, the whole division immediately began to attack, give me a hard beating of these dogs in the city!" ”
The officers and men of the Northeast Frontier Guards, who were already idle, immediately launched an all-out onslaught on the county seat of Yongning.
Hundreds of large and small artillery pieces fired in unison, and the head of Yongning City burst into flames, and thousands of officers and soldiers from the Northeast outside the city shouted and killed the heavens and the earth, launching a fierce attack on the Ma Jiajun like a tide.
The Ma family army held the city, and the two sides launched a fierce offensive and defensive battle.
With the addition of air force fighters from the Northeast Frontier Army, the casualties of the Ma Jiajun at the head of the city suddenly increased.
In the evening, the northeast frontier troops of three divisions attacked the city from four directions, basically annihilating the main force of the Ma Jiajun in the city.
The east gate of Yinchuan was opened by them in one day.
At the same time, the 212th Division led by Shen Ke and other troops also quickly advanced to Shizuishan and, with the cooperation of the Air Force, launched a tidal offensive against the position of the Ma Jiajun.
In Yinchuan City, the two brothers Ma Hongkui are picking up the wind and washing the dust for Ma Bufang and his party.
Suddenly, a communications soldier broke in with a panicked look and reported to Ma Hongkui: "Chairman, it's not good, Yongning County has been lost." ”
"What? Yongning lost? Why didn't you report it earlier? Ma Hongkui was taken aback when he heard this.
"I just got the news that the radio and telephones in the city were all seriously damaged by the air force bombing of the Northeast Frontier Army, and this news was reported by the remnants of our army who escaped from Yongning!" The communications soldier replied with a shudder.
"Fuck, these cunning Northeasterners!" Ma Hongkui jumped like thunder.
Ma Bufang had not yet fought with the Northeast Frontier Army, and the Qingma troops under his command were indeed much more powerful than Ma Hongkui's Ningma Wall, so he said disapprovingly: "Shaoyun, don't worry, now that our two armies have gathered more than 130,000 troops, with the reinforcements I brought, we will definitely be able to recover Yongning and defeat the Northeast Army!" ”
As soon as Ma Bufang's words fell, another communication soldier staggered in with a panicked look, and saluted everyone: "Chairman, sir, something is wrong, the Northeast Army on the North Road suddenly attacked Shizuizi Mountain, our army suffered heavy casualties, the defense line has been urgent, and the front line requests urgent reinforcements!"
