In the early morning of June 30. Shanxi, Taigu County.

In the war room of the General Headquarters of the Shanxi Front, there was a noisy sound of bells. In just three days, the communications units directly under the Front Army had laid a complete cable and telegraph network. The front-line units and the rear artillery units and reserves were all connected by wires, and finally all the lines were gathered into this compound. A staff group composed of the elite of the army and the moral affairs advisers as the backbone transmitted intelligence, issued orders, and liaised with the whole army through this network, turning a chaotic and chaotic battle into accurate calculations and deductions again and again...... As for He Yingqin, commander-in-chief of the front army, as soon as the cannon sounded from the front, he sat in the Taishi chair in the middle of the war room, holding a tea cup, and listening to the front-line battle situation constantly reported by the staff officers, most of which were very trivial news. He Yingqin's eyebrows gradually wrinkled, and his mind kept turning, trying to piece together these fragments of information into a complete picture of the battlefield.

The sky gradually brightened, Chief of Staff Qian Dajun walked in front of He Yingqin with a tired face, is it just a sigh Brother Jing, Taiyuan is in an emergency, the Niu Huozhai in the four major fortresses of Dongshan was captured by the G Army last night Yan Xishan is coming to the front line to organize a counteroffensive, but the situation is not optimistic...... The troops of the G Army attacking Taiyuan were very combative, the firepower was also very fierce, and the artillery and infantry cooperated very well, and it seemed to be their elite troops. Yan Xishan is only afraid that he will not be able to support much, and I am worried that Yan Xishan will not be able to wait for reinforcements, and it is very likely that he will defect to GCD, and then I am afraid that we will fall into a bitter battle here. ”

Regarding the full-front offensive launched by the G Army on the front line of Xugou last night, Qian Dajun did not say a word. Because the battle was weak all night, both sides were testing the reality of their opponents. In the overnight battle, the Kuomintang army suffered five or six hundred casualties on all fronts, and the other side estimated that the casualties were about two thousand. None of them are real, so they can't be talked about. As for the position on the front line of Xugou, not an inch was lost, and it was not even broken into by the other party. It's not that the defense is too strong, or does the opponent simply not want to make a breakthrough? Maybe the purpose of the G Army was only to block reinforcements, and they wanted to destroy the Yan Xishan group that was holding Taiyuan before going south to fight to the death with the Kuomintang army?

He Yingqin listened to Qian Dajun's report with a calm face, his face did not change, and his fingers kept tapping on the armrest of the chair, revealing the anxiety in his heart at this moment. Now that Army G is divided into two groups, the north and the south, it should be the best time to defeat them...... Once the Yan Xishan Group is overthrown, all the pressure will be pressed on his body, and he muttered, Can't you wait any longer for today's weather conditions? ”

Qian Dajun nodded and said that the weather was fine, and the Air Force said that it could be dispatched. Brother Jing, are you going to attack? The General Staff is there ......"

He Yingqin waved his hand heavily, ignoring the general's life outside, "He stood up and paced a few steps behind his back, Brother Yin, you let the staff immediately prepare a plan for a full-scale attack Before noon today, we will launch an attack on all fronts, we must break the enemy in front of us before Taiyuan City is broken"

……

"Good news: Good news: Taiyuan Dongshan Niuhuo Village Fortress was captured by my Eighth Route Army"

Zhao Yanfeng, secretary general of the Central Committee of China G, also crashed into the conference room of the West Flower Hall in Zhongnanhai. Before the people arrived, they had already loudly reported the latest telegram they had received.

There were a few hearty laughters in the conference room, and several Politburo members nodded their heads and exchanged views softly.

"Good Dongshan is the barrier of Taiyuan City, after the capture of Dongshan, Taiyuan is just around the corner" Zhou Elai clapped his hands, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face, he saw that Zhao Yan did not leave immediately, so he must have something to report, so he smiled and said Yan, is there still a situation Don't skip words.

Zhao Yan frowned, and it was also sent by the General Front Committee of the Shanxi Campaign. Last night, the southward reinforcement corps launched three tentative attacks on the Kuomintang troops entrenched south of Xugou...... According to the reports of Feng Yuxiang and Li Jishen, they estimated that the reinforcements of the Kuomintang army might be as many as six divisions."

The hearts of everyone in the room seemed to have fallen from the clouds to the bottom at once, and even Zhou Elai's eyes were slightly reproachful.

Mao ZD shook his head, then looked at Gu Shunzhang, the person in charge of the Central G Special Branch, and suddenly asked Comrade Shunzhang, are the two divisions of the Kuomintang along the Yellow River still there.

Due to the collective exodus of the Kuomintang leftists and the Kuomintang's continuous purge of miscellaneous generals, at present, the Central G can only rely on the underground party organization to secretly monitor the Kuomintang military barracks in various places for the deployment of the Kuomintang army, and the specific person responsible for this work is Gu Shunzhang, the leader of the Special Branch.

Gu Shunzhang was stunned for a moment, thought about it and said that it was still there. We kept in touch with comrades from Shandong and Henan every day. They laid eyeliner near the main barracks in Shandong and Henan...... According to their reports, the strength of the Kuomintang army in Shandong and Henan has increased, and many tanks and artillery have been transported from the south. ”

"Tanks and artillery, this is the time to get the intelligence? "The Soviet adviser who was present at the meeting, Chuikov, jumped to his feet, and his chair rattled.

"Comrade Gu Shunzhang, how many tanks and artillery have your Kuomintang mobilized to Henan and Shandong? Time to arrive again? Cui Kefu had a panicked look on his face, and his eyes went straight to Gu Shunzhang and asked loudly. He had seen with his own eyes the power of the Kuomintang armored troops in the Third Battle of Zalainuoer, and the 40,000 Soviet Red Army were crushed in a few hours, and in the Battle of Jinan two years ago, it was also the Kuomintang armored forces that defeated the three divisions of the Japanese reinforcements...... They have come to the front line of the Yellow River again, and if they want to do it, they can figure it out with their toes.

Gu Shunzhang was stunned, and from the facial expression of Advisor Cui Kefu, he also knew that these tanks might be a little prickly.

"Comrade Advisor, this information has just been received, and it has been reported by our comrades who have been planted among the railway workers...... There must be hundreds, right? There are not many specific numbers for them, only a full twenty trains, all loaded with tanks and artillery, were transported from Wuhan, and the destinations were Zhengzhou and Jinan. ”

"Twenty trains, all full of tanks and cannons, my God" Comrade Chuikov just stood there at this moment, repeating these two sentences in the innermost part, looking frightened. As a senior commander of the Soviet Red Army who has received a strict formal military education, he naturally understands that behind the number of hundreds of tanks means that there are at least two legendary armored divisions, and at present, except for China, no one in the world seems to have such a powerful armored force, right? There are not many words, two armored divisions plus two infantry divisions originally deployed along the Yellow River, that is four divisions, according to the establishment of the Kuomintang army division, it should be 100,000 troops relying on Zhang Xueliang's tofu soldiers can withstand even one day?

"Comrade Advisor, is it possible that the Kuomintang has launched an attack on the Zhili Plain? Do you think we should transfer troops from Shanxi? Zhou Elai seemed to see the problem, and his expression was a little hesitant.

Cui Kefu seemed to wake up at this time and glanced at Zhou Elai. Shaking his head slowly, if the Kuomintang were going to launch an attack on the Zhili Plain, then they should not have six divisions on the Shanxi battlefield...... It was common military knowledge that they should concentrate the main forces in the most critical places, and even if the Kuomintang generals did not understand it, their German advisers would have taught them. ”

He looked grim, and there was Beijing, the capital of China, which should be what the Kuomintang wanted most, and if you lost Beijing, you could no longer be called the central government. In this way, China will only have one central center, and they can also destroy the 200,000 troops of the Northeast Army in one fell swoop in the process of attacking Beijing, and it is estimated that Zhang Xueliang will not be able to withstand the attack of two armored divisions for even a day

…… As soon as Zhang Xueliang's main force is finished, it is estimated that the northeast will soon fall into the hands of the Kuomintang, which has vast land and rich coal and iron resources, and is the most ideal site for the development of heavy industry. The monopoly conglomerates behind the Kuomintang must have dreamed of getting there, so ...... The focus of the Kuomintang's attack this time should be Zhili rather than Shanxi, and this time we may be fooled......"

The members of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Central Committee in the conference room just listened silently, and everyone still admired Cui Kev's military talent very much, and this analysis was indeed to the point, which made people have to be convinced.

"Comrade Advisor, if we transfer the troops from Shanxi now, is it too late not to skip words. It was Li Lsan who asked the question, and his tone was unusually heavy.

Cui Kefu shouldn't have answered for a while, just when he hesitated, Mao ZD on the side suddenly slapped the table, laughed and said They want to be directly subordinate to Beijing, let them just let us only need Shanxi. As long as we take Shanxi, the roof of the North China Plain, Zhili and Beijing are under our bayonets at any time, we can fight when we want, I suggest that the Shanxi campaign be carried out according to the original plan, and order Zhu D to take Taiyuan as soon as possible, and at the same time, the central organs in Beijing will make all preparations for evacuation. Oh, and in addition, we also have to remind Zhang Xueliang to beware of the sneak attack of the Kuomintang army. ”

Zhou Elai nodded lightly, and then looked at Comrade Cui Kefu, you see, ......"

Chuikov's eyebrows were twisted, but his eyes were on Mifu, the general counsel of GC International in China. The decision to abandon Beijing is tantamount to giving up the status of the central government, but this decision violates the supreme instructions of Comrade Stalin, and Chuikov does not dare to make it casually.

Mifu's expression was grim, and he couldn't give up, and the war in Beijing was never judged by the number of people killed, and the war was nothing more than a continuation of politics...... Beijing is the capital of China, the symbol of China, and the political center, and if it is lost, China and G can no longer claim to be the central power. At that time, you will be - the rebel armed Soviet Union will not be able to provide you with large-scale military assistance, without the assistance of the Soviet Union, will you be able to defeat the Kuomintang reactionaries? Comrades, the Kuomintang is no longer a reactionary in a semi-feudal and semi-colonial country, but a real imperialist, with the fourth-strongest navy in the world and the fifth-strongest army in the world, and the production of steel will reach more than 5 million tons in a few years...... Such a powerful enemy is not something you can defeat by fighting guerrilla warfare in the ravines."

“…… Therefore, I suggest that you immediately abandon the plan for the Battle of Taiyuan, withdraw part of the main force north to the Xinkou line, and block the northward route of the Kuomintang and the Jin army. The rest of the troops will be withdrawn to Beijing, and we must keep the capital of red China, only then can the Soviet Union and the proletarians of the world continue to help you, and China will be able to win."

……

June 30 at noon.

In the positions on the side of the Kuomintang army on the front line of Xugou, more than 100,000 heavily armed officers and soldiers were fully prepared to launch an attack. They munched on the sumptuous lunch that had been prepared in the field kitchen for a long time, and the aluminum lunch box contained large pieces of braised pork that were burned fat and soft and glutinous, which was the last lunch in the legend, and this was the last benefit that people who had fought in the Eastern Continent for thousands of years could enjoy...... Before setting off for a decisive impact, Meimei had a meal, and if she hung up, she was also a full ghost, and the junior officers of the Kuomintang army also pretended to be casual, greeting each other goodbye in the next life, "This time is said to be a key battle for the survival of the party-state." Moreover, the enemy still has a numerical advantage, and the combat effectiveness is not inferior, at least the documents sent by the superiors say so, and they, the party-state elites who came out of the Central Military Academy, are naturally convinced, and all the wills have been left, and the only thing left is to do without hesitation. is different from these junior officers who are obviously scared to death and are still stiffening. The faces of the soldiers were tense and no one was talking to each other. Maybe they will never understand for the rest of their lives that in order to participate in this damned civil war, aren't those on the other side also Chinese? What about the Chinese to fight the Chinese? However, the Kuomintang army's harsh battlefield discipline and inhumane strict training have made these soldiers unable to think normally, and can only become machines that obey orders. After half an hour, they will cross the trenches and rush to the positions of the Central G army for an anti-people civil war...... In short, a very reactionary thing

On top of the artillery position of the Kuomintang army, a full eight artillery regiments were lined up from west to east, six of which were divisional artillery regiments, and two were heavy artillery regiments belonging to the First Brigade of Independent Heavy Artillery. The eight artillery regiments are all 105mm and 150mm heavy guns, and the total number is as many as 432 shells, a large number of shells have been transported to the artillery positions in time by mule, horse and truck teams, each cannon has two base ammunition, a total of more than 50,000 shells, Major General Gui Yongqing, commander of the First Brigade of the Independent Heavy Artillery of the Kuomintang Army, is in straight gear and inspects the various artillery positions with an impeccable military posture. Today, all the eight artillery regiments here will be under his unified command, whether they can blast through the opponent's solid defense line, dumb the opponent's firepower points, cover the infantry to break into the opponent's position, and achieve brilliant results, it depends on the ability of these artillery officers who have undergone several years of strict training, Gui Yongqing has no doubt about this, compared to the artillery group composed of more than 400 heavy guns, in China and even in Asia, the strength is a bit too Gui Yongqing even has a feeling that this artillery bombardment is completely unnecessary. In fact, you can ask the commander on the opposite side to come to this position and take a look with your own eyes, maybe this war will end here......

Wait for it slowly, and soon reach the point where you are scheduled to attack. Gui Yongqing looked down at his watch, and it was already 12:55 p.m. In five minutes, China's two most elite armed forces will be engaged in an unprecedented and bloody battle

What Gui Yongqing and the entire Kuomintang army offensive troops could not have dreamed of was that at this time, Feng Yuxiang and his southbound corps were hurriedly arranging for a retreat, and the enlarged meeting of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Central Committee of the People's Republic of China, which began in the early hours of this morning, finally made a final decision at around nine o'clock. The correct proposal of Comrade Mao ZD, which did not receive the approval of the majority of the comrades of the Politburo, adopted a resolution that decided to abandon the Battle of Taiyuan and then devote part of the main forces to the defense of Beijing. At ten o'clock, the order of the General Front Committee of the Shanxi Campaign had already been sent to Feng Yuxiang's hands through the airwaves. And this Feng Yuxiang didn't seem to want to stay on the Xugou front line for a minute, as soon as he received the order to retreat, he began to execute it immediately without saying a word, and did not wait until after dark to act......

At this time, the first batch of retreating Third Route Army, the 18th Route Army, the Third Artillery Brigade, and the two regiments of the artillery division directly under the Central Committee were already on the way to the north, and Zhang Guotao also retreated with them. The 16th Route Army and the 17th Route Army have also been withdrawn from the first line, and in front of them is actually the 19th Route Army led by the left wing of the Kuomintang, not the G Army.

"Brother Huanzhang, we can't withdraw in such a hurry...... If you want to withdraw, you have to wait until after dark, and if you withdraw now, if you are chased by the enemy's air force, the team will have to collapse" Li Jishen twisted his eyebrows around Feng Yuxiang, and persuaded him bitterly.

Feng Yuxiang just smiled and waved his hand, and Brother Ren Chao was too worried. Kuomintang ...... "At this moment, a sharp and piercing whistling sound that sounded almost like the whistle of a small ship suddenly swept through the air
