Chapter 532 Thousand Years Ancient Embankment

The Yellow River is the mother river of the Chinese nation, it has raised countless Chinese sons and daughters with milk, but for thousands of years, both sides of the Yellow River have also suffered from the pain and disaster of the surging river flooding.

The flooding of the Yellow River has natural disasters and **, sometimes ** is more powerful and ruthless than natural disasters, the time came to September of the 49th year, the crisis once again came to the people in the Jinji area of Ningxia, there was no heavy rain, there was no flash flood and mudslide, the ancient embankment built for thousands of years is also very strong, the local people are still as usual, live their lives step by step, and do not realize that they have a sword hanging above their heads that can kill people at any time.

On the orders of Ma Dunjing, commander-in-chief of the Ningxia Ma Jiajun, He Shuheng, deputy commander of the 128th Army, personally stationed here with an engineer battalion, with only one purpose, when the large forces of the People's Liberation Army broke through the three lines of defense of the Ningxia Army, they would break the embankment and release water, and use the Yellow River to resist the attack of the 19th Corps.

In the history of ancient China, there are many examples of battles won by water, including myths and legends, but the depictions of war have spent a lot of time and space to write about the great achievements and resourcefulness of the victors, and few people have examined the great suffering that the great water brought to the enemy while also bringing deep suffering to their own side.

In June 1938, in Huayuankou, Henan, in order to delay the Japanese attack, the Kuomintang government ordered the 53rd Army of the Army to release water from the embankment, under the dual effect of explosives and peace-shooting artillery, suddenly a white wave was raging, more than 40 counties in three provinces were flooded, more than 10 million people were affected, more than 1 million people were drowned, all the fertile fields were turned into swamps, the losses were unbearable, the price paid was huge, and the losses caused to the Japanese army could not be calculated, the least is that only three were drowned. At most, more than 20,000 people were drowned, and the real result can never be verified, and the consequence is that the local people are extremely disgusted with the Kuomintang government, coupled with the corruption of military discipline of Tang Enbo's troops and looting everywhere, the people in the Central Plains are extremely disappointed with the Kuomintang government. ”

A large grass-green military tent is set up not too far from the embankment of the Yellow River, and from the tent door that is lifted, you can see soldiers wearing military uniforms coming and going in the middle from time to time, because the sky is getting darker, and the middle tent is lit up with a horse lantern that is commonly known as "the air of death" by the common people. ////( n)

The twist of the horse lantern was picked up long, how high the flames were strung up, only 20 square meters of tents were illuminated, in the northwest region in September, the temperature difference between day and night was very large, and the weather quickly cooled down at night, and a tall officer wearing the uniform of a Kuomintang major general was pacing back and forth at a table covered with a green military blanket.

This person was He Shuheng, deputy commander of the 128th Army of the Ningxia Army, a local Kuomintang unit, and was appointed by Ma Dunjing, commander of the Ningxia Theater, and Lu Zhongliang, commander of the 128th Army.

A major general and deputy army commander personally led a battalion of soldiers to prepare to blow up the embankment and release water, which shows that Ma Dunjing, the commander-in-chief of the Ma Jiajun in Ningxia, attached great importance to this matter.

I have been walking around the table for more than an hour, just like the old donkey grinding, He Shuheng, who has a string of wrinkles on his head, has no intention of stopping to rest for a while, the orderlies have been sent out, and there is no need to hide anything in front of his subordinates, and the sadness on He Shuheng's face became more and more obvious.

Everyone knows that this is a very difficult task to perform, not to say how difficult the actual workload is, the engineer battalion has already planted the explosives, and they are ready to stop, and they can be detonated just by waiting for an order.

Once the Yellow River is blown up, it is not known whether the footsteps of the People's Liberation Army's westward march can be stopped, but the local people are really going to drown a large number of them, and such a task is to be written into the history textbooks by future generations.

The uncertain He Shuheng suffers from gains and losses, carry out the order, he must be a sinner through the ages, and he will be scolded to death by the people if he is not beaten to death in the future, if he doesn't carry it out, his family members are still in the palm of Yinchuan Ma Dunjing's hand, but how is it good!!

He Shuheng, as the deputy commander of the 128th Army, the main force of the Ma Jiajun in Ningxia, knows much more information than ordinary soldiers, Ma Bufang in Qinghai ran away with a lot of wives, sons and property, and Ningxia's own boss Sima Hongkui also ran away, leaving only an unusable second son Ma Dunjing, no accident, Ma Ergongzi will definitely run, it is said that the plane in Yinchuan City has long been prepared.

Everyone has run away, what should I do? Running along? In the situation of the siege of the PLA army, there is only one way to run out safely, like Ma Bufang and Ma Hongkui, go out by plane, no matter how powerful the PLA is, as long as you can go up, you can go to Taiwan, but you are only a major general and deputy commander, not to mention that in the Kuomintang Central Army system, even in the Ma Jiajun in the northwest, there is a lot of arrest, can you have the position of deputy commander and family members on the plane?

The more I think about it, the more upset I become, damn it, the deputy commander of the major general, it looks very majestic, but when the Kuomintang is defeated, it is nothing, the Kuomintang Central Army and the local army in the season of defeat and retreat wantonly sealed officials and made wishes, as long as they can bring a hundred and ten people, saying that they want to be loyal to the Kuomintang and the People's Liberation Army, they can get an official to be in charge, and the appointment is thrown like a lot of butt paper, and the general commander is flying all over the sky, not to mention others, even the commander of a new cavalry brigade that has just been established for a few days has also been given the rank of major general, what *** bullshit new brigade, Only more than a thousand people dare to call the new 1st Brigade ?? It is not as good as a regiment of the People's Liberation Army with a large number of troops to make a general, and the world is about to change.

He Shuheng's heart turned over the river and the sea, and the bombing was not bombing in a fierce ideological struggle, just when his thoughts were numb, a unit was taking advantage of the cover of night, and quickly drove towards the Jinji area, the size of the army could not see how big it was, but it must be all cavalry, yes, the sound of the horse's hooves running up came far and wide, in the Ningxia area, the cavalry troops of a certain size were basically Ma Hongkui's men and horses, this army was not bad, and the uniform of the knights on the horse was the military uniform of the Ningma army.

It seems that this army marching at night is the officers and soldiers of the Ma Jiajun, but I don't know why, the officers and soldiers of this Ma Jiajun always give people a strange feeling, I can't say what it feels like, but I always feel a little different from other Ma Jiajun, and then take a closer look, there is a sharp squad of about 100 people at the front of the entire cavalry unit, and the officers who lead the team are familiar with how they look at their eyebrows, very similar to Ning Erzi, the reconnaissance hero of the Independent Brigade of the People's Liberation Army, what is very similar, it is Ning Erzi.

Seeing Ning Erzi, needless to say, the nature of this army turned out to be the reconnaissance battalion of the PLA Independent Brigade, which was being ordered to march quickly.

The reconnaissance battalion of the Independent Brigade has a total strength of more than 1,000 men, and in peacetime it uses jeeps and trucks as the main means of transportation, but today it is not the case, not only is there no big truck, not even the smallest jeep, the whole battalion is all on horseback, not only marching on horseback, but also wearing the clothes of the Ningma Army.

Fortunately, the scouts are all-rounders, and riding a horse is not difficult for them, but there are still soldiers who whisper in private: "Damn, our ass is more delicate than before, I always feel that riding a horse is not as comfortable as riding a car, and this tattered clothes make me feel uncomfortable no matter how I wear them." ”

The soldiers didn't talk loudly, but they were still heard by a commander in the middle of the team, and the commander said casually: "Don't fuck the fuck, you forgot when you were hungry when you were full?" It's not comfortable to ride a horse, our troops used to run out dozens of kilometers with two feet a day, and there were many little devils and Kuomintang troop trucks, but we were still faster than them when we crossed the mountains, and we still fought their ambushes, which cheered me up, and I was not too far away from the enemy. ”

The commander who spoke was none other than Zhang Jinsong, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion of the Independent Brigade.

The Independent Brigade had just received orders from Commander Yang Dezhi and Commissar Li Zhimin to cooperate with the 64th Army of the 19th Corps to encircle and annihilate the Kuomintang 128th Army in the vicinity of Jinji and Lingwu.

In fact, before the independent brigade received the order, Li Yong had already started in advance, with Li Yong as the brigade commander, the independent brigade had many times to gain insight into the opportunity before the battle, this kind of thing is no longer a secret secret in the independent brigade, the new soldiers do not know, the old soldiers are already used to it, Zhang Jinsong and his reconnaissance battalion received the order is to solve their engineer battalion before the large army launches an attack on the 128th Army of the Ningma Army in the Jinji area, to prevent the enemy from blowing up the Yellow River embankment and releasing water in the case of a dog jumping over the wall.

Before leaving, the brigade commander Li Yong repeatedly advised: "Don't look at the 128th Army of the Ningma Army, what else is there to fight with the People's Liberation Army to the end, every inch of land will be fought for, in fact, there is nothing remarkable, as long as our large army surrounds it, their death time has come, for the large army of the People's Liberation Army advancing westward, the biggest threat still comes from the boiling Yellow River, not to mention other troops, once the enemy blows up the embankment, all the trucks, tanks, and heavy artillery of the independent brigade will fall into the point where they cannot march, The casualties will also be incalculable. ”
