At 3:35 p.m., Xuzhou, the General Headquarters of the First Group Army of the Northern Expeditionary Army. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

With the advance of the first and second armies on the Eastern Front step by step, Zhang Zongchang's Zhilu coalition army also dispatched troops to stubbornly resist, and everyone went all out to fight with their lives, and the entire front immediately entered a white-hot stage.

The Shilianghe battlefield commanded by Chen Tiaoyuan and the Fengcheng battlefield commanded by Liu Zhi both had a tug-of-war of gains and losses; Although the Yutai battlefield commanded by He Yaozu was relieved of the danger behind him and to the west, it fought very hard under the fierce resistance of the four divisions of the Anhui Army in the direction of Yutai; An Yi's Fengxian battlefield is still in fierce fighting, and only Xia Douyin has the exact good news:

With the assistance of the officers and men of the 71st Division, the Supplementary Division of the 27th Army fought hard for four hours to capture Peixian, and achieved an excellent record of destroying more than 3,200 enemies and capturing more than 4,000 enemies.

At this critical moment, Chiang Kai-shek personally sat in the command headquarters, and from 9:50 a.m. to the present, more than a dozen generals sat on both sides of the wide conference table, handling any battle reports from the front and studying the cloth of every important order.

The generals and commanders present all know that the whole battle situation has now reached the most critical moment, and whichever side grits its its teeth and goes down, the victory belongs to whichever side, and this victory has a strong continuity, and its importance is self-evident.

The confidential staff officer of the colonel of the headquarters quietly walked behind Ge Jingen, who was sitting on the left side of Commander-in-Chief Chiang, put a lengthened message that had just been translated in front of Ge Jingen, and took a step back and stood solemnly.

After reading the two lines, Ge Jingen stood up excitedly and reported loudly: "Commander-in-chief, Yigong, everyone, General An Yi good news: With the full help of the 72nd Division, the Independent Division ended the Fengxian ambush at 2:40 p.m. today, and completely annihilated 15,000 officers and soldiers of the Ninth Division of the Anhui Army, including Lieutenant General Jiang Jicheng, Lieutenant General and Chief of Staff Liu Yuting, and captured 24 enemy artillery, 12 legal mortars, and more than 7,000 long and short guns. General An thanked the commander-in-chief for his trust, the commander-in-chief of the General Headquarters for his support in all aspects, and the quartermaster logistics department for their great cooperation. General An finally said that the three main regiments of the Independent Division, the artillery regiment and the two main regiments of the 72nd Division are making intense preparations, and they will immediately go north after replenishment, and surround the flank of the defenders of Yutai! ”

The venue was ***, and Zhu Peide stood up excitedly and said loudly: "Great! That's great! Defeat the Ninth Division of the Anhui Army and take Yutai is just around the corner, as soon as Yutai is broken, Sun Chuanfang and Zhang Zongchang's entire defense line will immediately be shaken across the board, good news! ”

"In one day and one night, two tough battles were won by a big victory, and they went north to fight non-stop, and the steel hero is worthy of his name!" He Siyuan will sigh loudly.

Chiang Kai-shek forcibly held back the excitement in his heart, stood up and signaled everyone to be quiet: "Bu Lei, send a telegram of encouragement to General An Yi in my name, and inform the whole army to boost morale." Director He ......"

"The subordinates are here!"

He Siyuan, director of the political training department, respectfully stood upright.

"Immediately, in the name of the General Headquarters, we will report to all circles in the country that the Third Army Corps of our Revolutionary Army has completely annihilated the mixed brigade, sixth division, and ninth division of the Anhui army, and inform all circles throughout the country that as soon as the news comes out, the enemy army will panic and shake its morale, and our army will be greatly boosted and courageously marched forward." Commander-in-Chief Chiang proudly ordered.

"Yes!"

He Siyuan strode towards the confidential room.

After the commander-in-chief Chiang finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the generals who had sat for a long time and did not dare to move finally left happily, and a few minutes later, Zhu Peide, who had returned from going to the toilet, was stopped by Chiang Kai-shek when he entered the door. Chiang Kai-shek motioned for him to sit down, and handed over An Yilai's long message: "Brother Yizhi, let's take a look, and we'll discuss it after reading it."

Zhu Peide took the telegram and read it carefully, slowly put it down and sighed: "I see, no wonder he was able to leave more than 4,000 prisoners in another brigade of the Sixth Division, and used a series of tricks to lure the Ninth Division, which had more than 15,000 people, into the encirclement and annihilated him, and there was not a single prisoner...... It's a very good fight, but the killing is too heavy, this kid's revenge is so strong, it doesn't have a good impact if it spreads! ”

Chiang Kai-shek nodded: "I listened to Kanhou's report just now, and I realized this, and Kanhou also concealed it, it doesn't matter!" How can there be immortals in war? Judging from the more than 4,000 prisoners he left behind in the Sixth Division of the Anhui Army, he was not swayed by hatred, but treated him differently, so there is no need to blame him for anything, just remind him to clean up the battlefield, it is estimated that many reporters will flock to it tomorrow, the battlefield is too bloody and has a bad impact. The younger brother suggested that Brother Jiang send him a telegram, Brother Yi is An Yi's elder, and it is easy to say anything

Zhu Peide smiled slightly: "I understand, my subordinates will do it." ”

Ge Jingen, who was standing next to him, waited for Zhu Peide to leave, then sat down, and took out the small map that he hastily marked according to An Yi's brief battle report: "Commander-in-chief, General An is really an immortal talent!" Please take a look...... The plain area with a radius of more than ten kilometers actually allowed him to skillfully use the two rivers in the west and south of Fengxian County to arrange two unfortunate blocking lines, and only need to dig a trench of four or five kilometers in the east, take advantage of the enemy's weakness in rescue heart, lead the enemy into an ambush circle within a radius of four or five kilometers, and then block the west side, and use his independent division to double the artillery bombardment of other main divisions, supplemented by the fire of the infantry of two divisions to encircle and annihilate, the enemy can only be beaten, wonderful! Such a wonderful battle can be put into my yellow fishing textbook. ”

Chiang Kai-shek smiled with satisfaction: "I'll just say, there is no battle that An Yi can't fight!" This guy has a broad vision, a group of resourceful people, he can come up with any way, and he can turn the unfavorable conditions on the battlefield into advantageous conditions, this kind of almost innate ability is rare, at least it has not yet appeared in our First Army, with his merits and talents, it is not an exaggeration to be a military commander. ”

"My subordinates deeply sympathize, General An is a rigorous and hard-working general, and the understanding since the Northern Expedition and the work together in the past few days have touched his subordinates deeply. When analyzing the enemy's situation, in addition to the regular content, he paid great attention to the changes in the weather, the local culture and other conditions, and even asked about the origin and education of a brigade commander of the enemy army, which was so delicate that it was convincing! It's just that the subordinates still don't understand a little, how could the twenty-four guns of the enemy's ninth division not be used? And more than two brigades of more than 10,000 people were unable to break through the blocking line with no rivers on the east and west sides? Ge Jingen said sincerely.

Chiang Kai-shek nodded: "He didn't elaborate on the telegram, according to my guess, the enemy's artillery is likely to be cleaned up by him before it is in place...... Right! It should be like this, Kanhou, others don't know what is going on with the third battalion of An Yishi's teaching regiment, you should know, with the combat effectiveness and equipment of his third battalion, it is more than enough to deal with two infantry regiments, not to mention an artillery regiment with poor self-protection ability? As for why the enemy army can't break through, I think there are a lot of articles in it, command, coordination, firepower deployment, morale, etc., and we still need An Yi to come back and explain that we don't know. ”

Ge Jingen suddenly realized, shook his head and laughed at himself, and put away the map casually: "It's the negligence of his subordinates, hehe!" This map should be treasured by his subordinates, and when General An came back to figure it out, his subordinates wrote the whole process on it, which is very commemorative. "An Yi's staff section and teaching regiment will have detailed records of every battle, including pre-war planning and post-war summaries, which is quite good, and now the divisions under Jiang Mingsan and Gu Mosan have also imitated this system."

Chiang Kai-shek waved his hand to stop Chen Bui from putting on a new tea, took the teacup and drank the tea that had already cooled, put down the cup and said: "Kanhou, you stay and closely follow the movements of the Independent Division and the 72nd Division, I estimate that they will use the long-distance attack to attack the enemy's flank again, I am a little worried about their physical strength, so you must always pay attention and remind him to keep close contact with General He Guiyan and cooperate with each other." ”

"Obey ......"

"Report! General An Yi sent an urgent telegram. "The confidential staff officer has arrived again.

Ge Jingen took the telegram, and after reading it, he smiled helplessly: "Commander-in-chief, our worries General An Yi have solved it by himself. ”

Chiang Kai-shek took the telegram and read it, and laughed happily, this guy dared to requisition 17 trucks of the Quartermaster Department, and people worked hard to send him ammunition and supplies, but he forced them to go to the battlefield. This kid's brain is moving fast enough, and it is estimated that the enemy would never have dreamed that he would use dozens of trucks to transport troops. However, it is estimated that Qiao Feng (Yu Feipeng) will be worried."

Ge Jingen said with a smile: "I guess Minister Yu won't worry, General An has a very good relationship with him, and dozens of cars are nothing!" ”

Chiang Kai-shek smiled, stood up and left with easy steps. The dozens of generals and colonels around were very surprised, most of them had worked in the headquarters for two years, and few had ever seen Chiang Kai-shek smile, and it was the first time that they had laughed so happily.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, north of Fengxian County.

An Yi, Yu Zhengsheng, section chief of the Quartermaster Department, and Pan Shanzhai, commander of the 72nd Division, stood side by side on a hill on the side of the road, watching the convoy of 65 trucks loaded with soldiers, heavy weapons, and ammunition rushing north. Yu Zhengsheng, who had just passed through the edge of the battlefield with blurred flesh and blood, was churning in his belly with blood, feeling a lot better at the moment, standing upwind and breathing fresh air, watching the male division under his feet go to the battlefield, and hooked up the heroic feelings of the man in his heart.

This morning, Yu Zhengsheng was named by Ge Jingen to personally send ammunition and materials to An Yi's department, and walked 71 kilometers all the way from Xuzhou City to Fengxian County, and finally arrived at half past two in the afternoon, and received a thousand thanks from An Yi, the commanders of the independent division, and more than 1,000 brothers in the artillery regiment. Yu Zhengsheng understands that the number of artillery shells of the independent division has been greatly increased, since An Yi purchased high-horsepower trucks by himself, the standing shells of each artillery of the independent division have always been one more base than those of other divisions, and the normal number of shells for each gun is 250 shells, and it is indeed surprising that it is now empty.

Colonel Huang Zhi, the 28-year-old deputy chief of the Operations Section, walked briskly up the hill, came to An Yi and saluted, handed over a telegram to Commander He, and sent a telegram to Commander Xia to call that Commander Xia had rushed to the front line from Longgu to Yangtun before Dahei, Commander Xia would lead the 64th Division, the 81st Division led by General Mao Bingwen, and the Reserve Commander Wang and the 1st Independent Division to launch a fierce attack on the whole line. Commander He suggested that our troops should not fight too early, probably because they wanted to attract the attention of the enemy army and create a better answer for our troops. ”

An Yi smiled knowingly, took the message, signed it, and handed it to Huang Zhi, who graduated from the Huang Suspicion period, and said with a smile, Chief He is a very generous and honest elder, his heart, we received the senior brother, I didn't let you go up, but don't be angry with the younger brother, the brothers are all gone, only the junior brother and the senior brother, Lao Chang, the communication department, the combat department, the special service battalion, and the engineer company all need the senior brother to take care of it, and you can't move without your brother.

I was joking with Zhao Rui just now, don't take it seriously, don't worry about going down this way, don't worry about fighting, my subordinates are not familiar with the working methods of my division, and it's not too late to go down to the grassroots level in the future."

Huang Zhi smiled and saluted, turned around and left, at work or in front of outsiders, Huang Zhi and all the brothers of the independent division would respectfully shout the teacher's seat.

Si Siwenwen's Yu Zhengsheng helped Jin Jing glasses, looked at the disappeared convoy, and asked uneasily, Xiao Yi, after four catties, can you really return the convoy to me

Sure, Brother Yu, although rest assured, there are only twenty kilometers from here to Shunhe Town in the north, forty kilometers back and forth, plus the unloading time, four catties of Bu hours is enough. An Yi hurriedly explained.

Yu Zhengsheng asked: Shuncheng did not defend the enemy?

There is a regiment estimated that now the legs are so frightened, the eldest brother can rest assured, the younger brother's two battalions have been riding north a month and a half ago, if the younger brother is right, then they are almost fighting at this time, fortunately, in these two battles, more than 700 horses were captured, plus the original more than 100 horses of the independent division of the younger brother, and more than 100 horses were borrowed from Brother Pan, which is enough for the brothers of the two camps, otherwise the younger brother would not dare to go north so blatantly. An Yi said with a smile, and the whole person looked very relaxed.

Pan Shanzhai explained with a smile to Yu Zhengsheng that the two battalions of the independent division were very strong, and they were personally led by Gu Changfeng, a fierce general in the army, and the deputy division commander personally led the team, among which more than 100 horses were carrying mortars and shells, and the firepower was very strong, although Chief Yu was relieved. ”

Yu Zhengsheng laughed and said, Brother Pan may not know that the guys under Xiao Yi's command have a great reputation in the army, and their deadly fighting style is famous, and Brother Bu is very worried that they will rush towards the enemy in a car, so I have to remind him, otherwise I will have to spend a lot of words going back. ”

An Yi pulled Yu Zhengsheng down the mountain, rest assured, Brother Yu will pay you a few less cars, and the younger brother will pay you a few, so it's okay, can't you just let the principal sign it? It stands to reason that the headquarters still owes me fifteen cars, and I haven't forgotten them until now

Let's go, little brother, I haven't eaten lunch yet, let's go back to the city to eat, I heard that there is an old man surnamed Zhao in the city who makes sweet and sour elbows, first-class, let's go and try it, little brother does Dong U, Brother Pan, tonight, the little brother has to give you a cup, you let the two main groups out, and the younger brother is grateful

After drinking, the two of us shared the spoils while waiting for the news from the front line, many good things were blown up in this battle, and half of the captured light and heavy machine guns could not be used, it was a pity that fortunately, a large number of materials transported to Zhaozhuang by the Ninth Division were preserved, otherwise the little brother of these two battles would really be with him. ”

Pan Shanzhai was overjoyed, agreed, and suddenly Yu Zhengsheng ran down the mountain and lay on a relatively flat rock on the side of the road, vomiting wildly.

Pan Shanzhai shook his head with great sympathy, Junzuo, you really shouldn't have taken Chief Yu to the battlefield to see, even a person like his subordinates who has been in the military for a long time can't stand that kind of hell on earth, let alone a cultural person like Brother Yu. ”

An Yi frowned innocently, and at first, Brother Bu didn't let Brother Yu see it, but he wanted to go, and said that he must see what the battlefield with more than 6,000 shells looks like, and Brother Bu couldn't persuade him

Shen Fengdao and a group of guards behind him listened interestingly, and couldn't help laughing.
