Left right to decide

In the headquarters of the former enemy in Taizhou, Chief of Staff Zuo Quan was standing in front of the sand table with a serious face, thinking about the military comparison between the enemy and our army in the entire Central China region and even the whole country. And at this moment, an operations staff officer, wearing a jī moving de smile, quickly rushed into the LE war room. Before the chief of staff of Zuo Quan could open his mouth to ask questions, the operational staff officer was anxious to report.

"Chief of Staff, Commander Chen sent a telegram. After half an hour of artillery battle. Under the joint attack of the artillery column and the artillery unit under the Ninth Corps, the Japanese army reinforced the Zhenjiang River Defense Fleet, a total of five destroyers, none of which escaped the net, and all of them were buried at the bottom of the river. Our artillery column, as well as all the units participating in the battle, did not lose any personnel or equipment, except for the fact that LE consumed a lot of shells...."

"With zero casualties, all five destroyers of the Japanese river defense fleet were annihilated. This Chen Guangrong, fighting at the level of the war, is getting better and better, fighting well....quickly, immediately forward the content of the telegram to the field army headquarters, and report the victory to the commander-in-chief and political commissar and others....If nothing else, now the commander-in-chief and the political commissar are also paying attention to the battle situation on our side all the time..."After the chief of staff of the left power breathed a sigh of relief, he took a decisive command with a decisive de.

"Yes, Chief of Staff...."

As the operational staff officer departed, he saw the chief of staff of the left right in front of him, after a short period of surprise. Once again, he faced the sand table in front of him and fell into deep thought. Wang Shangfa, chief of staff of the Ninth Corps, who had been sticking to the command headquarters and acting as his deputy to Zuo Quan, immediately realized what he was doing after carefully reading the telegram brought by the operational staff officer. Then, facing the chief of staff in front of him, he asked with a suspicious expression.

"Chief of Staff, judging from the telegram, after the total annihilation of the Japanese army's river defense fleet, the most important obstacle blocking the launch of the river-crossing campaign by our East China Field Army was completely cleared by our army. You see, we're next...."

"Hehe, Counselor Wang, you are really as wise as a torch. Definitely, I'm thinking about that right now. The chief of staff of Zuo Quan nodded noncommittally, and threw a hint of appreciation at the chief of staff of Wang Shangfa in front of him. Then, he continued to ask.

"Chief of Staff Wang, the total annihilation of the Japanese river defense fleet de battle, beyond imagination de de de made the final decision. You say, after the battle, in the face of such a huge dadeshengli, how is the morale of the various combat units? ”

"The momentum is like a rainbow," replied Chief of Staff Wang Shangfa affirmatively.

"This is the telegram that Commander Wang has just sent to destroy the entire process of the Japanese river defense fleet, and it is almost in the eyes of all the commanders and fighters in the forward position. Seeing that the Japanese army was invincible, the destroyer was under the blow of our artillery unit, and there was no chance to counterattack, and they only held on for less than half an hour, and they were all buried at the bottom of the river. The morale of the troops, so to speak, Yijing was promoted to the pole of LE. According to Commander Wang's report, since the end of the battle, he has received numerous reports from various combat units, asking our East China Field Army to take advantage of the victory to launch a campaign to cross the Yangtze River, cross the Yangtze River, occupy the important town of Zhenjiang, and give the Japanese Army another head start..."

"What else?" The chief of staff of Zuo Quan continued to ask rhetorically.

"According to the latest information sent by our army's observation posts deployed in the forward positions and the reconnaissance personnel concealed on the opposite bank, the Japanese army's river defense positions and tidal flat positions on the opposite bank have also been hit by heavy artillery bombardment. In addition, they reported to the Japanese army river defense fleet, and in front of their eyes, they were annihilated by our army. On the entire forward position, the Japanese puppet army troops, Yijing fell into a state of chaos in which everyone was in danger. ”

"What is even more important is that our telecommunications office specializes in listening to the Japanese army radio signal de telegraph operator reports. Since the Japanese river defense fleet was annihilated by our army, the frequency of the Japanese radio signal has not only increased several times. Moreover, these frequencies, compared to usual, have become disordered. Obviously, the Japanese command system also fell into a panic because of the news that the river defense fleet was completely annihilated by our army. ”

Seeing the chief of staff of the left right in front of him, he nodded noncommittally to his answer. Chief of Staff Wang Shangfa resolutely opened his mouth to say what he thought in his heart: "To sum up, Chief of Staff, I think that now is the best opportunity for our army to launch a battle to cross the Yangtze River, cross the Yangtze River, and recapture Zhenjiang from the hands of little devils..."

"Well, let me think about it...."As soon as Wang Shangfa's chief of staff de's voice fell, Zuo Quande's eyes fell on the sand table in front of le again. Then, he fell into deep contemplation.

A few minutes later, a sharp gaze quickly flashed at the corner of the chief of staff's mouth. Then, facing the chief of staff of Wang Shangfa in front of him, he decisively ordered.

"Chief of Staff Wang, immediately inform the two commanders Wang Ping and Chen Guangrong that in the shortest possible time, rush to the front enemy headquarters, hurry up...", with the arrival of Wang Ping and Chen Guangrong, the chief of staff of Zuo Quan, without any hesitation, directly went straight to the point and said the specific reason for the convening of an emergency meeting: "Commander Wang, Commander Chen." Before discussing the next DE topic, I would like to ask the DA family a question, whether your DE troops still have the ability to continue to fight. Especially Commander Chen, your artillery column, can the ammunition carried by the troops still support a protracted war depletion..."

As soon as Zuo Quande's voice fell, Commander Chen Guangrong, who had a keen eye, realized what le. With a confident face, he said: "Please rest assured, Chief of Staff, this time, we will bring enough shells." Just de battle, just de, only depleted us less than a tenth of the deshell reserves. Don't de, I can't guarantee it, danshi, I'm sure de, the remaining reserve of de's artillery shells in my artillery column can be supplied for at least a week's combat needs..."

"Okay, what about Commander Wang?" Zuo Quan turned around and continued to ask.

"Chief of Staff, just after the battle, my Ninth Corps assembled two corps, and with the exception of some artillery, almost did not participate in the battle. Therefore, we have enough ammunition reserves in our hands to sustain a long de battle...."Wang Ping replied affirmatively.

"Well, since that's the case, then I'll make it clear to you. I decided to change the original battle plan and launch the battle of crossing the river ahead of schedule. Taking advantage of the annihilation of the Japanese river defense fleet and the panic of the Japanese army on the other side, the two main forces of the Ninth Corps were assembled to break through the Japanese army's river defense position in front of them in one fell swoop, occupy Zhenjiang, and give the main force of the East China Field Army to occupy a powerful river crossing point on the other side of the Yangtze River...."After receiving an affirmative answer from two people, Zuo Quan did not hesitate and said directly.

For a while, the two people dee faces, and immediately showed le different desè color. After following Liu Hua and Chen Guangrong for a long time, I heard that there was another battle to fight, and it was after the battle of crossing the river. A face, immediately lù out of a pair of leaping yù try to degod sè. On the other side, the steady de de Wang Ping's face was very cautious, and there was a trace of worry.

"Commander Wang, if you have any questions about this decision, you can directly raise it...."Seeing the expression on Wang Ping's face, Chief of Staff Zuo Quan spoke.

"I don't have any questions, just some worries. After all, in our hands, we are full of calculations, and there are less than two army forces. And we have a whole division of Japanese troops on the shore, and the total strength of the total strength is also a whole division. In addition, after a few days of preparation, we have a ferry, although there has been an increase. Danshi, all the ferries are all combined, once xìng, and they can only cross three regiments, less than 5,000 people....With 5,000 people who do not carry any heavy weapons, can they occupy the beachhead, and hold the beachhead, and wait for the main force to be reinforced...."Facing the combat sand table in front of him, Wang Ping quickly said that he was worried about the heart of the army....

In response to Wang Ping's series of DE rhetorical questions, Zuo Quan agreed with DE and nodded. Then, say one so that everyone doesn't know the situation: "Commander Wang, you don't have to worry about the problem of troops." I can guarantee that as long as the battle of crossing the river starts exactly last year, within three days, at least one corps will come to reinforce you. In addition, more than 3,000 special combat members of the special combat division have spent this month and through various means to get through the Yangtze River in front of them. And in the Zhenjiang area directly opposite us, we will gather the strength of a special combat regiment, and at that time, from the rear of the Japanese army, we will cooperate with you to launch a river-crossing operation and occupy the beachhead. ”

"Another question, whether the 5,000-strong troops can break through the Japanese beachhead and hold the breakthrough with the help of small arms in their hands. This question depends on our Commander Chen..."

Seeing the gaze of the chief of staff Zuo Quande, Chen Guangrong immediately understood his mind and said: "On the issue of artillery support, Commander Wang can rest assured. The hundreds of DA caliber guns belonging to our artillery column are not vegetarians. When the time comes, I will equip each infantry battalion with a radio and an artillery staff officer. As long as the infantry brothers need it, our artillery column will be supported by artillery fire, and we will ensure that we will be on call, and it will not exceed a minute of time ...

"In this case, Chief of Staff, I, Wang Ping, promise to complete the task..."At this point, Wang Ping no longer had any hesitation, and assured with a confident face.

"Okay, then that's how it was decided. I'll give you an hour to prepare. An hour later, the artillery column, gathering all the artillery, launched a half-hour artillery bombardment of the Japanese tidal flat positions and river defense positions on the opposite bank, completely destroying the Japanese tidal flat positions and river defense positions...."The chief of staff of Zuo Quan nodded with satisfaction. Immediately, facing the combat sand table in front of him, he ordered with a serious face.
