Section 2: Acquisition of Chadong (12)
Feng Zhanhai and Yan Mingzhi almost simultaneously concluded that Zhuang Jihua would put forward conditions after analyzing the current situation and let them participate in that very dangerous plan, although he had said that he could voluntarily participate, Zhuang Jihua once again disappointed them.
"...., in order to support the front line of the Great Wall, we must strike at the logistics supply lines of the army, so the army branch decided to form several teams to attack behind enemy lines," Zhuang Jihua finally said: "I declare that I am willing to participate, and it has nothing to do with whether or not to reorganize and pay the army. ”
But who will believe this? Yes, no one believes it, there was a long silence in the venue, the room was so quiet that a needle could be heard, everyone was silent, if it was just an ordinary military operation, it would be nothing for them to beat the side drums, but this is to go deep behind enemy lines, they have personal experience of the strength of the army, and if they don't pay attention to it, they may have to kill the whole army.
"What do I say? No wonder the old man above remembered us, it turned out that he let us die! ”
Zhuang Jihua saw that it was a sweeping tiger who spoke, this was a standard Northeast man, with a beard on his face, and a command knife hanging on his armed belt, which looked very rough and arrogant.
"Hu Da is wrong," Zhuang Jihua said calmly: "I said, this is voluntary participation, and it has nothing to do with anything else, even if you don't participate, the central government will also absorb your troops and pay your military salary." ”
After finishing speaking, Zhuang Jihua glanced at the audience, and then patiently explained: "The military branch knows that this task is very dangerous, and if you don't pay attention to it, I'm afraid that none of the people who go will not be able to come back, we once wanted to give up this action, but let the army attack the passes of the Great Wall, with the superior firepower of the army, we are afraid that we will not be able to hold it for long, only by striking at the weak logistics line of the army, can we stabilize the battle line on the Great Wall, and can the people in the pass be protected from the misery of the army." ”
"What if we don't go?" Lao Beifeng looked at Zhuang Jihua coldly and said.
Zhuang Jihua looked at him and said calmly after contemplating for a moment: "Then I'll go." ”
"Then I'll go." These words immediately stunned everyone present, they didn't expect this seemingly polite person to be so resolute and resolute.
"The army's transportation line must be attacked, the task must be completed, if everyone is unwilling to go, then I am duty-bound," Zhuang Jihua's tone was very calm, but he was very anxious in his heart, the army had been resting long enough on the front line of the Great Wall, and it was reasonable that the various supplements were almost over, and they were about to attack, and the guerrillas behind the enemy should set off immediately, and they could not delay any longer.
"But I only have thirty-two people, and this number of people is not enough, so I hope that you leaders will help me recruit volunteers in your army, and I believe that among these seventy or eighty thousand people who are willing to be born and die, they should still be able to find a thousand men who are willing to be born and die."
"Mom Labazi, look at your bear-like, don't look at the little devils making fun, how big is Rehe to Liaoning, how many little devils can there be? General Zhuang's eyes were like torches, and he saw at a glance what the little devil was most afraid of, "Little White Dragon Fan Chunshen stood up scoldingly: "Them, I don't care, I'll go!" ”
"Good! General Fan is right, the strength of the army is mainly concentrated on the front line of the Great Wall, and there are not many troops in the rear, and it is not for you to attack the city, as long as you look at their transport convoy and hit their transport convoy, they have to draw troops from the front line! ”
"But I also have a request, please ask General Zhuang to agree." Fan Chunshen said in a serious tone.
"Please." Zhuang Jihua replied.
"I can only take more than 600 brothers with me, and about half of the remaining brothers have asked the general to take care of them." Fan Chunshen said and hugged Zhuang Jihua.
"Please rest assured, I will take them here and wait for you to come back; If you can't come back, I will take them to Sichuan, as long as there is a dry bite of my Zhuang Cultural Revolution, and I will never let the brothers drink it thin. Zhuang Jihua said sincerely. Seeing this, Fan Chunshen didn't answer, and turned back to sit back in his place.
"Anything else?" Zhuang Jihua looked at the people in the hall and asked.
"Count me in, Brother Fan has too few people, and besides, my old bones died well for the country." Deng Wen, who had been silently smoking, took off the cigarette stick and knocked it twice on the sole of his shoe, saying casually, as if he was talking about something completely irrelevant.
As soon as Deng Wen spoke, the atmosphere in the room began to change and became more dignified. The wind blowing from the north swept up the loess in the sky, fluttering on the window paper, and the banners of the volunteers in the courtyard were also fluttering high, and the horses tied to the courtyard seemed to feel a trace of unease, they collectively scratched and neighed, and several soldiers hurriedly ran up to try to appease them.
Huang Shouzhong, who saved [***] from Rehe, said lightly: "Since my brother is going, then count me as one, we are familiar with Rehe." ”
"Mom Labazi, my head has a big scar on the bowl, and I'm done." A gust of wind kicked one leg on the chair, squinted at the yard, and said angrily.
Then there was the old north wind, and then there was the snow ..........
Zhuang Jihua breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and he sincerely felt relieved that these people who looked ragged and full of swearing, they may have done many wrong things, but they never lost a little - to be a strong person, a Chinese who dares to resist; They were covered in blood, they had come out of the enemy, and now they were going to kill again, even if they paid the price of blood, but they were so calm, so calm. He felt that he was not wrong to come back, and that there was always a force in China, an unyielding force, a force to resist.
"In that case, then I'll count me as one." Feng Zhanhai stood up and said in Yan Mingzhi's somewhat surprised eyes.
"You can't go." Zhuang Jihua's reply surprised Feng Zhanhai.
"Commander Feng won't let you go because there are other tasks, and this task is equally important." Zhuang Jihua said solemnly to Feng Zhanhai, and then he turned to everyone and said: "Although it is dangerous for you to go here, it is not to ask everyone to fight hard with the army, but to adopt a new tactic," Zhuang Jihua suddenly laughed when he said this, making everyone a little inexplicable: "In fact, you should be familiar with this tactic, when you are still in the green forest, what will you do if you encounter a powerful political axe army to clear it?" ”
"Then you don't need to say, drill into the forest!" The sweeping tiger laughed and said: "In the twelfth year of the Republic of China, Zhang Dashuai sent troops to suppress us, and Lao Tzu went to the forest with a cat, and he had no choice but to stare at him and get out of here." ”
"That's right," Zhuang Jihua said after smiling: "Let's develop this kind of tactics of drilling in the forest, I will go with the enemy, and I will fight if the enemy is outnumbered; Never fight hard, only take advantage.
Let me give you an example, for example, if the army comes over with 20 carts and 100 soldiers escort the carts, and I have 1,000 people, then I can ambush them, and if they can destroy them all, they will be completely annihilated, and if they can't be completely annihilated, they will blow up their transports, and this will also be a victory. On the other hand, if the enemy has 800 men, and we still have only 1,000 men, and we will suffer a loss if we fight again, then let them go.
In the same way, if there are not many defenders, then we will fight, and if the enemy is outnumbered, then do not fight, bypass them. ”
Zhuang Jihua's words made the leaders very excited. "Grandma's, isn't this the same as us beating stuffy sticks and breaking kilns, playing soft kilns, not hard kilns."
"Yes, that's the truth," Zhuang Jihua immediately said: "However, everyone must remember that you must never rob the people, and the way not to fight hard with the army is to let the army not find you, but if you rob the people, then the people may tell the army and leak your traces." In addition, the troops should be lean, no more than 3,000 people at most, and the target should be small if there are few people, and the target should be too large ...... too many people. ”
Zhuang Jihua wanted to say something, but Deng Wen interrupted him unceremoniously: "Brother, you can rest assured, when we do this, I'm afraid you are still studying in school." ”
After saying that, he laughed, Huang Shouzhong also laughed at the same time, Zhuang Jihua was also a little funny after thinking about it, and laughed at himself with a wry smile: "That is, this kind of tactic, you can be my master." ”
"But General Zhuang, there is something I must say," Huang Shouzhong got up from his chair and walked to the center of the room: "Ammunition, the central government must replenish our ammunition, we are now extremely short of ammunition, only a few bullets per person, if we don't replenish ammunition, this battle can't be fought." ”
Zhuang Jihua nodded and said: "Please draw up a list, I will send it to Beiping," Speaking of this, he looked at Huang Shouzhong in embarrassment and said: "I don't hide it from everyone, Beiping's ammunition is also very tight, I estimate that I can only replenish some parts, I am afraid it will be difficult to replenish all of them, and it must be transported from Wuhan or Nanjing, which will delay time." He pondered for a moment, had an idea in his heart, turned to Feng Zhanhai and said: "Commander Feng, if the Beiping side can't replenish all of it, can you get some ammunition from your department, and I will be responsible for transferring your ammunition from Nanjing, or buy it from Yan Xishan." ”
Feng Zhanhai thought about it and said, "Let's send a telegram to ask Beiping first." Zhuang Jihua immediately sent a telegram to Beiping to request ammunition supplies, and soon Beiping called back to agree to his request, but as Zhuang Jihua expected, only half of it was promised.
Of course, Feng Zhanhai couldn't refuse, and he immediately agreed to allocate most of the ammunition accumulated by the troops to the attacking troops. This episode once again made Zhuang Jihua feel that he must develop the military industry as soon as possible, otherwise after the outbreak of a full-scale war, he would be defeated without fighting.
"Phew!" There was a long shouting sound in the wind and sand, several horses stopped in the yard, behind the horses were several carts, Wu Ziniu walked up the steps quickly, and shouted at the door of the house: "Report! ”
"Come in," Wu Ziniu asked as soon as he entered the house, "It's all here?" ”
"It's here, but, but," Wu Ziniu said in a hesitant voice, "I've exchanged all the dollars for the ocean." ”
Zhuang Jihua paused, walked in front of him, and patted him on the shoulder: "Learn to use your brain, okay!" Commendable. ”
Lu Ruishan commanded the soldiers to carry seven or eight large boxes into the house, and then opened all the boxes, and the white silver dollars emitted a dazzling light in the dim sunlight.
