The full hall of generals quietly looked at the map, without the praise and cheers that An Yi hoped for, An Yi smiled, put down the baton, and apologized with a red face and regret:

"I'm sorry, I'm arrogant and arrogant, and I made the commanders laugh, and my subordinates ......"

"Good strategy! It's more detailed than our new plan! ”

General Yin Zusheng, deputy director of the General Staff Office, strode forward excitedly, grabbed his baton and pointed at Lingbi: "This is General An Yi's most ingenious strategy, as long as you win the little Lingbi, the whole game of chess will be alive!"

In the latest plan formulated under the auspices of General Bai Jiansheng, the 40th Army of the Second Route Army and the 1st and 3rd Divisions of the First Army were all ready to set off for the north within five days, advance northward in a steady and steady manner, step by step, and solve Sixian and Sihong before reaching Lingbi, which would take about 15 days.

On the other hand, General An Yi's plan, the leap-forward style of warfare greatly shortened this process, only need to take Si County, Lingbi is by no means a problem, the east is in the open plain without any obstruction, Sihong City, in the dilemma of being attacked on both sides and facing the water, a slight blow will collapse without a fight, so that the obstacles to the northward advance of the Second Route Army are swept away! ”

The generals praised it, and many people immediately realized the huge political significance contained in it, and also clearly saw the root of Li Zongren's delay, and at the same time secretly admired An Yi's unique vision and mature political wisdom.

Liu Zhi and He Yingqin looked at each other, and they both saw the consternation in each other's eyes.

Commander-in-Chief Jiang was so excited that his face turned red, he heard the meaning of An Yi's words very clearly, and knew that as long as he and the generals of the staff had been ignoring the small Lingbi, he could force Li Zongren to launch an attack on Suzhou, and all the excuses of the Third Route Army would disappear because of the defeat of Suzhou, and the battle of Xuzhou, where Commander-in-Chief Jiang was looking forward to the stars and the moon, would enter the countdown, and the divisions of his Second Route Army would be directed at Suqian, and the last defense line of Zhang Zongchang's Zhilu coalition army would collapse, The eastern section of the Longhai Line and the southern section of the Jinpu Line, which are of the most strategic significance, are completely under their control, and the entire Anhui and Jiangsu are also firmly included in the bag, and the cunning Li Delin will lose the opportunity because of this, and then lose the excuse for bargaining, so he can only honestly follow himself to continue the Northern Expedition and make new contributions.

At this time, An Yi realized that it was not that the countermeasures he had come up with with all his might were naïve, but that the generals agreed with him, but after listening to General Yin Zusheng's optimistic words, An Yi was still startled, and hurriedly stepped forward and explained loudly:

"Chief Yin, my subordinates are still not absolutely sure about taking Si County! Even if the teacher and the principal promise to lend the two regiments of the instructor to their subordinates, and the subordinates can get away with capturing Si County, but if there are no more than two main divisions to follow and rush to help, as long as they delay for a day, the enemy will see the flaw, and the subordinates will probably be confessed to this little life! ”

Seeing An Yi's bitter face, the generals laughed, and Yin Zu hugged An Yi's shoulders happily.

Commander-in-Chief Jiang also showed his big teeth rarely, immediately covered his mouth and coughed, and waited for everyone to calm down and decisively ordered: "Marquis Zhan, adjust the plan, within three days, the first and third divisions of the First Army must all arrive at Wuhe County, and He Guiyan's (He Yaozu)'s 40th Army must also set off for the north at the same time, and must not be slackened a little." Jiansheng and Brother Xue Xuan (Chen Tiaoyuan) are there, let me explain to them! ”

"Yes!"

Ge Jingen replied with a smile.

Commander-in-Chief Jiang walked into Zhang Zhizhong's side and asked for his opinion in a low voice, Zhang Zhizhong smiled and said Please ask the commander-in-chief to decide, Commander-in-Chief Jiang walked up to An Yi and asked, "Say, which two regiments do you want to train the instructor to assist you?" ”

An Yi already had a plan: "Please ask the principal to approve Senior Brother Du Yuming's second regiment and the supplementary regiment of the students who have been the head of the regiment for six days to go to support, the sooner the better!" ”

Zhang Zhizhong stepped forward in surprise and asked, "How can the supplementary group be done?" The entire regiment has not even conducted a single live-fire training, and you don't know about the guns that just fired this afternoon, how could you choose a supplementary regiment? ”

"Teacher, it is precisely because of this that the students deliberately selected the supplementary regiment, and the performance of the brothers in the supplementary regiment in the past few days reminded the students of the first time they entered the battlefield. The teacher can rest assured that the students will protect them well, just let them go to the battlefield to experience the atmosphere of the battle, and it is estimated that a dozen rounds of live ammunition are much more useful than sweating on the battlefield all day. An Yi explained in a low voice.

Zhang Zhizhong nodded: "Okay, I agree, I will discuss the transfer plan with Director Ge later, and strive to let the two regiments rush to Pukou to board the bus tomorrow afternoon." ”

"Thank you, teacher!"

An Yi respectfully thanks.

Zhang Zhizhong patted his disciple's shoulder and walked to the many generals who were discussing intensively, Commander-in-Chief Jiang ordered everyone to hold a meeting to discuss first, and come back when he went, and after speaking, he led An Yi to his office, motioned for An Yi to sit down and asked in a low voice: "How do you see that General Li Delin is stagnant?" ”

At the dinner, the students listened to the discussions of the instructors and commanders, especially the admonition of General Ming San, and then came to a little understanding, plus the adjutant of General Li Delin had approached the students in a private capacity, although he did not say who wanted the students to serve in the Seventh Army, but the students had been vigilant, and combined with the battle situation for more than half a month, they secretly paid attention.

Before today, the students have been thinking about how to take Si County, attacking Lingbi has long been in the student's choice plan, but there is no connection to consider, now it is said that the principal has meticulous care, the student's thinking is very clear, so he rearranged the predetermined plan in his mind, and forced General Li Delin to move north by capturing Lingbi, and then had to launch the Battle of Xuzhou as soon as possible, but ...... It's just that the students don't dare to pick out the words, and what they say is vague and not in place, please forgive the principal! ”

An Yi honestly reported one by one without concealment.

Commander-in-Chief Jiang nodded with satisfaction: "Your ability and resourcefulness have surpassed many of your division commanders, which is very rare, especially your honesty and generosity, which makes me extremely gratified!"

Your return to the front line this time can be described as a heavy responsibility, and your gains and losses will affect the course of the entire battle situation, I believe you have realized this, here, I order you to take down the Lingbi for me within five days! Don't worry, I will specifically tell your instructor Gu Mosan to maintain radio contact with you, and to respond and support your department's actions at any time, and if necessary, you can take action without asking for instructions, General Bai Jiansheng will mediate with me, understand? ”

"The students will live up to the principal's expectations!" With Gu Zhutong's cooperation, An Yi was finally down-to-earth.

Commander-in-Chief Jiang lowered his face and said solemnly: "The gendarmerie and the police department have reported to me, you ride a horse every day to swagger through the city, and no one dares to stop you, the hero of the Northern Expedition, and the impact is very bad." I know you are angry, but you must not vent in a way that ignores the law, you have not demanded yourself well, you have not been humble and self-controlled, you should not be! ”

"This ...... The students' quarters were far away from the barracks, and they couldn't bear to watch the scrawny rickshaw drivers pull the students away in order to earn a penny or two, so they had no choice but to ride horses. An Yi explained with a red face.

Commander-in-Chief Chiang scolded in a low voice and continued: "Sophistry, this is sophistry!" Let's learn a lesson, don't take an example, tomorrow I will ask the Quartermaster Department to issue you a car, isn't the yard you bought very big? It is said that thirty cars are more than enough to park in the front yard. ”

An Yi was startled and hurriedly stood up: "Principal, every penny of buying a house is the student's own money!" I never used half a penny of the officers and soldiers, and I didn't dare to be greedy for military resources and empty military salaries! The reason why the students bought a house in Houzai Lane, which is convenient, is not for enjoyment, but for expansion, as the liaison office of our teacher in Beijing, so that the brothers in the headquarters will not have to live in hotels and restaurants in the future, and the logistics supply and procurement department will have a fixed office location. ”

Commander-in-Chief Jiang grinned: "What are you nervous about?" Sit down, the replenishment of ammunition and a batch of ordnance will be sent from the Pukou military station to Mingguang in the early hours of tomorrow morning, and someone will be sent directly to your garrison Liuxiang Town, if you have any other requirements, just tell me, I will try my best to meet you. ”

An Yi thought for a moment and pointed to the colonel's logo on the nameplate on his chest: "Headmaster, look here...... You can't let a colonel command a group of generals, right? ”

Commander-in-Chief Jiang couldn't help but laugh: "Niang Xipi...... Didn't you command so many generals and lieutenant generals just now? Are you still afraid that the command will not be able to move you, and the major generals of the reading division? Let me tell you, I will restore your military rank immediately, if you can't beat it, you will return to the Central Military Academy that is being prepared for me and be a lieutenant colonel instructor for a lifetime! ”

After Commander-in-Chief Jiang finished speaking, he stood up, An Yi knew that he was going to have a meeting overnight, so he hurriedly saluted and said goodbye, walked out of the door and stood waiting for Commander-in-Chief Jiang to leave, An Yi then breathed a sigh of relief and walked to the outer hall, and when he saw Yu Jishi coming over, he quickly stopped and said goodbye:

"Senior brother, junior brother will go back first, the principal needs you for a meeting, you should be busy."

"I'll let the car wait at the door, and Staff Officer Chen will send you back." Yu Jishi motioned for An Yi to walk out of the hall together.

An Yi said politely: "Don't bother the senior brother, the junior brother can just walk out of the compound, and a few guards are afraid that they will be waiting for a long time with the horses." ”

Yu Jishi patted An Yi's arm: "You still want to ride a horse?" Your three guards have long been coaxed back by the gendarmerie, and the entire city of Nanjing is now talking about your majestic appearance An Yi riding a high-headed horse, showing off! I guess you're addicted to playing. ”

An Yi asked in surprise, "Won't it?" I rode for a few days, and I went out before dawn in the morning, and few people saw it! ”

Yu Jishi gave An Yi a punch angrily: "It's still that scoundrel, get out!" This time, you must take down the Lingbi as soon as possible no matter what, from now on, every pair of eyes in the headquarters will be staring at you all the time, remember! ”

"Senior Brother Xie! The little brother said goodbye, and waited for the little brother of Xuzhou to be the east! Haha......"
