Chapter 758: General Deng Hua's Scheme
smashed Zaozhuang City, which was nearly 100 kilometers away from the battlefield, as the hinterland of the base, plus far away from the battlefield. It was not affected in any way by the fighting on the front line. However, the temporary headquarters of Deng Huadong's field army was shrouded in a tense atmosphere. In the small headquarters, except for a group of guards who stick to their posts with serious faces, there are no district grandchildren in peacetime.
In the huge war room, around the huge combat sand table, all the combat staff officers are nervous and busy......
Deng Hua, commander-in-chief of the East China Field Army, also stood in front of the huge combat sand table, looking solemnly at the sand table in front of him, under the command of the operational staff officer, constantly changing the banner, to understand the latest battle situation on the front line.
At this moment, Zuo Quan, the chief of staff of his old partner, rushed into the war room with an excited face.
"Commander-in-Chief, Chen Liao telegraphed ......"
"Well, the Chief of Staff of the Sixth Corps, look at the smile on your face, Yi'an is a good news from Commander Chen......" Deng Hua asked rhetorically with a smile on his face.
"The commander-in-chief is really discerning," Zuo Quan replied very approvingly.
"It's good news. The Sixth Corps reported that the encirclement and annihilation of the 20,000 troops of the Sixth Corps against the reinforcements in the direction of Xuzhou had come to an end. According to Chen Liao's estimate, in two hours at most, the entire ambush battle will end victoriously. At that time, the threat from the direction of Xuzhou was completely lifted by Chen Sai."
"Commander Chen is indeed the best general of our party. With only 20,000 people who are not equipped with any heavy weapons in their hands, they can win successive battles and completely annihilate more than 20,000 Japanese puppet army chiefs of staff."
The threat in the direction of Xuzhou was successfully removed by our commander Chen, and now, only the Japanese puppet army of the three heavy army groups of Suzhou, Lianyungang, and Huai'an remains. Pointing to the constantly changing combat sand table in front of him, Deng Hua continued to ask.
, "According to the pre-war requirements, the 10,000-day puppet army in the direction of Suzhou was also handed over to Chen Liao. And through today, I am completely relieved that Chen Sai has shown us the combat effectiveness and command ability, and I will hand over more than 10,000 puppet troops from Suzhou to him. As for the remaining Lianyungang and Huai'an, according to the plan, it was handed over to Deng Hua's Seventh Corps. What's all now, Deng Hua's Seventh Corps,
Still haven't seen any movement? ”
Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive. As soon as Deng Hua's words fell, a communications staff officer rushed into the war room out of breath, and reported to Deng Hua in front of him.
"Commander-in-Chief, Chief of Staff of the Seventh Corps urgently telegraphed ............"
"Since Deng Hua's Seventh Corps sent troops, two days have passed, and now, there is finally news. Quick, send me a telegram" Deng Hua, who looked expectant, quickly took the telegram in the hands of the communications staff officer and began to browse.
A few minutes later, a hint of excitement slowly appeared on Deng Hua's face: "Chief of Staff, this time, the commanders who have been transferred by the Central Committee to us are really better at fighting than one another." In less than two days, our Deng Hua took the troops by surprise and occupied the empty Huai'an City with surprise soldiers......"
"How is it possible to occupy Huai'an City According to intelligence knowledge, in the entire Huai'an City, there are more than 15,000 Japanese puppet troops stationed. Even if the 10,000 people who attacked are excluded, there are still more than 5,000 people left, besides, now Deng Hua's Seventh Corps should be in the position of blocking the Huai'an reinforcements, where did he Deng Hua come from so many troops, and go to divide the troops to occupy Huai'an City" Chief of Staff Zuo Quan asked with a puzzled face.
Deng Hua smiled at the rhetorical question of the chief of staff in front of him and handed over the telegram in his hand.
Then, he said, "Our Commander Deng Hua, give the little devil a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and then, with a surprise soldier, go straight to the old nest, and easily occupy Huai'an City, which is empty in defense." At present, the Huai'an City attack force, which learned that Huai'an City had changed hands, had returned to the original road, preparing to recapture Huai'an City from Deng Hua's hands.
As for the reinforcements in the direction of Lianyungang, because they were afraid that their own garrison would also be attacked in the same way, in addition to leaving half of the troops to reinforce Huai'an and recapture the city of Huai'an, which had changed hands. The rest of the troops also returned to Lianyungang by the same ............"
, "This Deng Hua really has a set, just like this, one ring after another, he took Huai'an City, an important town in northern Jiangsu. Now, the Japanese puppet army in the entire northern Jiangsu region should be in a hurry," after understanding the specific situation, Chief of Staff Zuo Quan said with a smile on his face.
"Chief of Staff, Comrade Deng Hua's plan is good. However, there are advantages and disadvantages to any strategy. Although Deng Hua made a surprise attack and took the important town of Huai'an, in the next time, he would face a fierce siege by a total of 20,000 puppet troops in Huai'an and Lianyungang. I hope that our Comrade Deng Hua, in the next battle, will be able to create more miracles for us like the capture of Huai'an City......", Huai'an City, the entire siege battle, because of Deng Hua's cavalry. It lasted less than five hours before it ended. The huge city of Huai'an did not cause too much chaos because of the war.
In less than a few hours, the entire city was completely taken over by Deng Huadong's field army.
Deng Hua, commander of the Seventh Corps of the Deng Huadong Field Army, Chen Kang, political commissar, and Sun Shiquan, chief of staff, were standing in front of the huge Huai'an city defense map with a solemn face, discussing something......
"Commander, when I see the map of the city defense in front of me, I am really glad for your decision. If you hadn't decided, let the special operations battalion change into a little devil uniform, quietly infiltrate Huai'an, and fight inside and outside with us. With only 5,000 defenders in Huai'an City, plus such a huge city defense fortification outside the city. It is almost impossible to take Huai'an City with such a small casualty in a few hours," he said, "seeing the map in front of him, the tight fortifications of the city. Political Commissar Chen Kang couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
, "Lao Chen, you're right, three city fortifications, plus bunkers outside the city, 5,000 garrison troops. Without heavy weapons, it is almost impossible for us to take it down. However, these fortifications, these strong bunkers, carefully built by the little devils.
At this moment, it is about to become a sharp weapon in our hands to deal with themselves" As he spoke, a murderous aura appeared on the face of Commander Deng Hua.
"This is called reaping the consequences, who let them build so many fortifications on the land of our country." This time, I must let the little devil who came back to help me hit his head and bleed on the fortifications outside the city" Political Commissar Chen Kang's face was also slowly shrouded in a thick murderous aura, and he said confidently.
"Lao Chen, Lao Sun, let's talk less nonsense, for our telegram, does the commander-in-chief call back" After retracting his gaze to the map in front of him, Deng Hua asked with a serious face.
"This is a reply from the headquarters just now, and the commander-in-chief is completely consistent with the battle plan reported by our department. Our department, with Huai'an City as the center, relied on Huai'an City's strong fortifications and sufficient ammunition supply to kill and injure a large number of the living forces of the Japanese puppet army. In the end, all the Japanese puppet army units in the Huai'an area were defeated or completely annihilated in one fell swoop" quickly took out a telegram, and the chief of staff, Sun Shiquan, replied.
"Okay, with the support of the headquarters, in my heart, I will be more down-to-earth, time is pressing, you can first introduce to me, the deployment of troops in our hands and the situation of the Japanese puppet reinforcement troops, so that we all have a number in our hearts, so that we can make the next stage of deployment" Commander Deng Hua nodded with satisfaction, and then spoke.
"Yes, commander" With the memory in his mind, Chief of Staff Sun Shiquan pointed to the city defense map in front of him and opened his mouth to introduce.
"At the beginning, in order to block the Japanese puppet army troops from Lianyungang and Huai'an, they slowed down their marching speed. We have transferred the strength of the two main regiments. So, so far, we have five regiments of troops left in our hands. At present, all but one of the five main regiments is deployed outside the city to serve as a guard mission. The remaining four main regiments were deployed in the fortifications outside Huai'an City......"
"As for the Japanese puppet army, according to the intelligence just transmitted to our special operations battalion assigned to us by the headquarters, the 10,000 Japanese puppet troops who attacked in Huai'an City have turned around and returned, and they can exchange fire with our alert troops deployed outside the city in a day and night at most. As for the sortie troops in the direction of Lianyungang, 5,000 people returned to Lianyungang and took up the task of garrisoning. The remaining 5,000 people, following behind the attacking troops of Huai'an City, quickly counterattacked Huai'an City...... Therefore, in the next battle, we will face the enemy, and the total strength will reach more than 15,000 people. Among them, more than 15,000 people are equipped with an independent mountain artillery brigade and an independent field artillery brigade with a total of heavy artillery ......"
, "Fifteen thousand puppet troops, twenty-four heavy artillery." It seems that our opponent is menacing......" Commander Deng Hua couldn't help but sigh.
"Commander, there are fortifications built by the little devils outside the city, plus the capture of sufficient Wu Deng Hua medicine in the city. I believe that it is definitely not a problem to let Huai'an City become the grave of this Japanese puppet army......" Chief of Staff Sun Shiquan replied confidently.
"I agree with Lao Sun. With such a strong fortification, they can definitely turn them into the graves of the Japanese puppet army............" Political Commissar Chen Kang immediately echoed.
"Hehe, Lao Chen, Lao Sun, although your ideas can be easily realized.
However, my ultimate goal is not that simple. My idea is that we should not only make these fortifications become the graves of the Japanese puppet army, but more importantly, rely on these fortifications to completely annihilate this Japanese puppet army. Otherwise, these routs will sooner or later become the object of our troubles. Therefore, if we want to solve it, let's solve it once, side to side......" Deng Hua shook his head, and then said what he thought in his heart......
