(Book friends ask to speed up the update, but to be honest, I'm not a quick person, I often have to think about it repeatedly when I write articles, and I have to read and revise them repeatedly after I finish writing, so that the final upload and the first written article are often two articles; However, I have to listen to the opinions of book friends, so I try to update one more section every day, and if everyone thinks the quality is okay, I try to keep two sections a day. Also, please vote for more, your support is my motivation, it's a bit old-fashioned :))

The ensuing turn of the war went the way Gallen had hoped, but not quite the same. Song Xilian led the two detachments of the monitoring Shipai to retreat and join Fan Hanjie's detachment, and then went to the cave village to join the main force, and the western army of the grottoes retreated immediately after getting the situation of the battle of Weitang, but was captured by the eastern army with two large ships and seven small boats. Then the main force of the Eastern Army entered the grotto to rest, after three hours of rest, after dinner, the Eastern Army was ready to cross the river in the grotto with great fanfare and torches. After Guan Linzheng got the news, he secretly led his army to set off and quietly hid in the south of the grotto.

At this time, the detailed report and minutes of the first stage were reported to the director's department, and Chiang Kai-shek, Gallen, He Yingqin and others fully understood how the battle situation had evolved.

The change in the battle situation began on the way to Shipai, out of Zhuang Jihua's suspicion of the deployment of the Western Army, and at the same time worried about the enemy situation on the other side of Liedeyong, at Zhuang Jihua's insistence, a combat meeting was held, at which Zhuang Jihua persuaded everyone to take a more secure way to attack, that is, to resolutely take Shigang at the beginning of the attack, to deter Guan Linzheng of Shipai, so that he did not dare to move lightly. Then the main force crossed Shipai and attacked the ferry with three detachments instead of the whole army, and the main force was stranded between the ferry and Shipai, and at the same time sent reconnaissance teams to the north and south of Liedeyong, especially in the area of the northern cave village, because there were large ships in that area. When the Western Army began to send a reconnaissance team to the cave village from the other side, it was discovered, and the Western Army's combat intentions were completely exposed, so there was a battle of annihilation in the surrounding pond. Zhuang Jihua was written on the battle planning and deployment of the Eastern Army.

With the beginning of the Eastern Army's crossing of the river, Guan Linzheng began to quietly set off to the grottoes, in the past two-thirds of the Eastern Army, Guan Linzheng launched an attack on the grottoes, and soon attacked the grottoes, but then was surrounded by the Eastern Army in a small area in the south of the Grotto Village, it turned out that the main force of the Eastern Army did not cross the river at all, and was hidden in the Grotto Village, and only one detachment rowed around the river, the purpose was to lure Guan Linzheng and then annihilate the Guanbu. The following is simple, under the siege of three times the force, after an hour of fighting, Guan Lin's army was completely annihilated.

At the same time, the defenders of the ferry were led by He Shaozhou to abandon Liede and rush to Slender Dog Ridge to retreat, in the battle of annihilation of Waitang He Department did not have an order, the situation is unknown, a force did not dare to move, after learning of the battle of Waitang, reported to the Western Army headquarters of Slender Dog Ridge, and then retreated. However, the move was criticized by He Yingqin.

He Yingqin had recovered from the blow, and he criticized the actions of He Shaozhou's troops, believing that He Shaozhou should immediately rush to the other side of the grotto, block the eastern army from crossing the river, and cooperate with Guan Lin's troops in the battle, instead of retreating to the safety of Shougou Ridge. His criticism was supported by Gallon. At the same time, Gallen criticized that the Eastern Army should cross the river immediately, and should not annihilate the Guan Department because of the fear of Guan Lin's expedition, delaying the time to cross the river.

Late at night, the Eastern Army crossed the river, and then advanced to Slender Dog Ridge in a rapid march, while the Western Army He Shaozhou stopped to rest in Fan Yuan in Slender Dog Lingnan, this move not only He Yingqin shook his head, even Wang Bailing also clearly believed that it was a mistake and should be withdrawn to Slender Dog Ridge as soon as possible, Zhu Tang, the commander-in-chief of the Western Army of Slender Dog Ridge, immediately sent someone to find He Shaozhou and asked him to withdraw to Slender Dog Ridge immediately, but due to the night, the order could not be passed to He Shaozhou.

After dawn, the Eastern Army found He Bu, and He Bu was annihilated. However, the stubborn resistance of He Bu for two hours before his demise caused the Eastern Army a lot of losses and exhausted them, and the Eastern Army was forced to rest for two hours, which was already noon on the last day of the exercise.

The director's department counted the troops on both sides, there were more than 230 people left in the Eastern Army, and the Guan Lin Expedition Department and He Shaozhou Department of the Western Army were annihilated, with a loss of nearly 300 people, and now there are about 180 people left in the Western Army.

At this time, it no longer matters what the final result is, although the number of people in this exercise is small, but it has been repeated in a radius of more than a dozen square kilometers, the village siege, the ambush battle, the two sides advance and retreat in a similar manner, the number of people is not large, but there is the charm of a large corps battle. Although there were slight flaws in the development of the battle, Chiang Kai-shek was extremely satisfied on the whole, and Zhuang Jihua, Jiang Xianyun, Chen Geng, Hu Zongnan, Li Zhilong, Guan Linzheng, Song Xilian, and He Shaozhou, who emerged from this batch of students, all showed their talents in this exercise, especially Zhuang Jihua, and the actions behind the Eastern Army were basically planned and carried out by him.

Chiang Kai-shek further affirmed that Zhuang Jihua is a general with troops, when he thinks of Zhuang Jihua, he can't help but think of his recent troubles, which makes him a little annoyed, although Zhuang Jihua was criticized by [***] made him happy, but his proposal of equality between the two parties also made many Kuomintang veterans oppose, and he was also called the red general, although this name does not seem to be bad now, I have to talk to him after the exercise. Chiang Kai-shek thought so in his heart.

In the end, the Eastern Army attacked Slender Dog Ridge in two ways, and the remaining forces of the Western Army resisted bravely under the leadership of Shen Yingshi, and the two sides fought together at Slender Dog Ridge, and at the end of the exercise, the Western Army was surrounded by regiments on the peak, but it did not allow the Eastern Army to achieve complete victory.

After the exercise, Chiang Kai-shek, together with his adviser He Yingqin, chief of the General Staff, and Director Zhou of the Political Department, inspected all the personnel participating in the exercise, and Chiang Kai-shek made a speech to all the participants:

"I am very happy with your performance, you have only received six months of military education, in six months you have completed the military education that it takes me three years and the Soviet Union needs two years to complete, and today is the assessment of your six-month education, you have surprised me and the advisory group, whether it is in the night battle or in the battle of the fortified battle, you have made full use of the knowledge learned in the military academy, this reflects the courage and resourcefulness of the revolutionary soldiers, and shows that the education of this school is successful. However, you should not be arrogant, a lot of problems have been exposed during the exercise, you have to go down to sum up your life, and you have not yet encountered the problem of leading troops, the soldiers you bring are all students from military academies, not trained by you, some of you will go to teach the regiment, we will also set up a new regiment, and the junior officers will also be drawn from you, and then you will have to train the troops well, the country is in crisis, and you must bear the burden of saving the country and the people. ”

"Recently, someone is saying that [***] members will quit the Kuomintang, and here this president " Speaking of this, he glanced at Zhuang Jihua, and saw that he was very calm, and his face did not move at all: "What I want to say is that the [***] members of this school are all good, they are all hot-blooded young people, and it is the wise decision of the prime minister to attract such hot-blooded young people to the revolution, and the three major policies of uniting Russia to support the peasants and workers cannot be changed, and anyone who opposes this policy and opposes [***] is the enemy of this president. You want you to stand firm against them. …。 ”

Listening to Chiang Kai-shek's speech, Zhuang Jihua smiled bitterly in his heart, this Chiang Kai-shek is really good at talking, saying big things and not paying taxes, and deceiving the dead and not paying for his life. couldn't help but look at Director Zhou standing next to Chiang Kai-shek, but saw that Director Zhou was also looking at him, he looked away again, he didn't know what Director Zhou thought, but he was sure that he was fooled.

"The officers and men of the teaching regiment have also done well, you have only been in the barracks for three months at most, and at least only more than a month, and you have also shown tenacious fighting spirit and the revolutionary spirit of obeying orders and not being afraid of sacrifice during the exercise, which is very good, you have joined the revolutionary army and become a member of the revolution,..., you must know that although you have fought several defeats, your opponents are military cadets who have undergone six months of training, and their equipment is better than yours, but even so, you have caused more than half of their casualties, This is a remarkable achievement. …。 Although the Western Army was defeated, Chiang Kai-shek felt that he could not demoralize the teaching regiment and wanted to cheer them up.

As the most outstanding student in the exercise, Zhuang Jihua accepted the commendation of Chiang Kai-shek and Gallen, and presented him with a certificate of merit and a bonus. Gallen was even more enthusiastic, telling him to his face that you have the potential to become a marshal, and at the same time asking him if it would be better to cross the river immediately, and then destroy the ferry and leave Guan Lin Zheng on the east bank. Zhuang Jihua was still a little flattered by the fact that the consultants communicated with the students on an equal footing, knowing that half of the Russian consultants were very arrogant, and the Chinese and Western cultures were different, so they would directly raise their opinions, so they often made some instructors unable to come to the stage. Zhuang Jihua told Gallen that he was worried that Guan Linzheng would cause chaos when crossing the river, so he wanted to annihilate the Guan Department first, and only afterwards did he think that he could indeed dry the Guan Department on the east bank.

The vigorous exercise was over, and the students of the first phase of Whampoa began to leave the school, Zhuang Jihua felt like a full-time moving worker in a moving company, but the customer's things were similar, a backpack, and then a book, some people had more, some people had less, and some people didn't. sent Jiang Xianyun, Zeng Kuoqing, and Hu Zong to the south of the company, sent He Jinhan, Deng Wenyi, Yang Qigang, and Li Zhilong to the Political Department, sent Chen Geng to the student team, and then sent Xu Jishen and Liu Qiuxi to the newly established Second Teaching Regiment, which was the same every time, saying similar things, but they were also a little strange, because according to the well-informed people, Zhuang Jihua went to teach the first regiment and was the company commander, but there is no news so far, and the company commanders of each company of the first regiment have been appointed, Xu Jishen persuaded Zhuang Jihua that he might go to the second regiment, Otherwise, just like Yu Jishi, he would be the secretary of the principal. Zhuang Jihua knew in his heart that they were comforting themselves, and now the whole school knows that they are changing, although these two are very suspicious of the Communist Party, but they deliberately did not pull things to any point, and he was happy not to talk about it, and said that I am a brick of the revolution, and I need to move there.

After sending everyone away, he was left in the dormitory, I remember watching a TV series in my previous life that told the story of a soldier guarding the barracks, Zhuang Jihua felt a bit like that soldier, now he is relaxed every day, running in the morning, and then going to the reading room to read books and newspapers, now the newspaper is still lively, Zhuang Jihua is silent, but the two factions almost never let him go, both are suspected of beating the "Reservoir Dogs", but the school is calm, "Friends of the Soldiers" has continuously published articles supporting the maintenance of the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party against separatism, Zhuang Jihua welcomes this kind of article, but he can't express his opinion, and some second-phase classmates are still staring at him, looking forward to his move.

After wandering like this for more than ten days, Principal Jiang seemed to be unable to stand him for not doing his job, so he sent Yu Jishi to find him, and there was only one thing - to invite him to dinner.
