Chapter 354: Bad News and Caution

No. 1 did not agree to its own deployment adjustment plan, and repeatedly asked itself to stabilize and pay more attention to local adjustments on the battlefield. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info so that Du Kaishan could only give up the original plan, and at the same time, he also continued to appease Ma Chunsheng, who was more impatient on the front line. He also transferred a battalion from a regiment that served as the reserve of the Cheorwon and Jinhua battlefields and handed it over to Ma Chunsheng on the Cheorwon front.

But although Du Kaishan did not put any pressure on him, Ma Chunsheng still looked a little impatient in the face of the inability to open the stalemate for a long time, and the overall battlefield situation with many casualties. On March 23, when he took several staff officers to the front line to observe, he was killed on the spot by the Japanese army's cold artillery.

After learning the news of Ma Chunsheng's sacrifice, in order to prevent the sudden sacrifice of the commander, it caused uncontrollable chaos on the battlefield. Du Kaishan immediately rushed to Dongmuli to personally take over the command and quickly stabilized the mood of the troops. did not let the Japanese army in front of him find an opportunity to take advantage of, and immediately reported the news of Ma Chunsheng's death to the headquarters.

Receiving the news of Ma Chunsheng's sacrifice, Yang Zhen was quite surprised. Although a few people were wounded, they gradually began to suppress and surpass the Japanese army with their firepower and tactical level from 43 years onwards. It has been nearly two years since the Anti-Japanese Federation and has not sacrificed cadres at the division level.

And now, at the last moment when victory is coming, the commander of a first-class main division has fallen, especially Ma Chunsheng, who is known as one of the best division commanders of the Anti-Japanese Federation. It was still the old bones that he brought out single-handedly, which undoubtedly made Yang Zhen even more sad.

Recalling the scenes since he first met Ma Chunsheng, especially the conversation between the two people in the mountains north of the Jiamusi River, Yang Zhen felt a pinprick in his heart. Although this guy is a little unruly, his personality is also quite stubborn. When he once served as the acting commander and chief of staff of the column, he was removed from his post many times because of unauthorized actions, and even demoted.

However, he performed quite well in the post of division commander, and in a short period of time, he brought a new division to the position of the first-class main division of the Anti-Japanese Federation. After being transferred to the commander of the 17th Division, he repeatedly performed well at critical moments. Originally, he planned to transfer him to serve as the deputy chief of staff in charge of training in the military region after this battle, and replace Chai Shirong, who was transferred to the commander of the Nenjiang Military Region, but he did not expect that he would die at the moment when the dawn had come.

It's just sad that the candidate for this division commander must be implemented as soon as possible, and as the commander of the North Korean cluster who is in unified command of the Korean battlefield war, Du Kaishan cannot stay in Cheorwon for too long. It's just that Yang Zhen was a little hesitant about Du Kaishan's proposed successor.

It was Du Kaishan who proposed to let Yang Jicai enter the court, and on the telegram, Du Kaishan hoped that Yang Jicai would directly take over as the division commander. Du Kaishan's intentions are obvious, Yang Jicai is bold, has many ideas, and has many ways to break the deadlock. Transferring Yang Jicai to take over as division commander will help break the current stalemate on the Cheorwon battlefield.

Originally, before the campaign was launched, Du Kaishan hoped to transfer Yang Jicai to the DPRK and take over the chief of operations of the Korean cluster, which he was never satisfied with, and even privately called the old lady with small feet. It's just that Yang Jicai, who was personally named by the boss at that time and was taking a training class for staff officers for the troops in the Guannai, couldn't get out of the way at all, so he didn't make the trip in the end.

The Central Committee attaches great importance to this training course in order to prepare for the formation of the General Staff Headquarters in the near future. All the personnel are capable personnel drawn from various units in North China and even the New Fourth Army. Many of them are battalion-level cadres of the main forces in major strategic areas.

The boss personally named Yang Jicai to lead the class, and asked Guo Bingxun to personally take charge of the teaching of the class. Even if he gave Du Kaishan eight guts, he didn't dare to go to the boss to dig the foot of the wall, so Du Kaishan could only return disappointed. However, in Guo Bingxun's words, Du Kaishan, who has a dog nose, has a very sensitive sense of smell.

At present, the Cheorwon front line is not only unable to start the battle for a long time, not to mention, but also sacrifices the commander of a main division. Du Kaishan, who was a little angry by the current war situation, after learning that this class had ended, this time he simply asked for a transfer by name. Even ignoring Yang Jicai's lack of qualifications and rank, he was directly named and transferred to take over as the commander of the 17th Division, and was fully responsible for commanding the battle on the Tieyuan battlefield.

I hope to use Yang Jicai's ghost ideas to dare to make up my mind on the battlefield. Although the stability is a little worse, the tactics are used in a variety of ways, and the worse the situation, the more the advantages are the more methods, and the current stalemate on the Cheorwon battlefield can be changed as soon as possible. Although the sacrifice of the division commander is still strictly secret, it is impossible to keep it secret for a long time.

Once this news spreads, it will inevitably affect morale. Du Kaishan was anxious to transfer Yang Jicai into the court, hoping that he could open the deadlock as soon as possible and minimize the impact of Ma Chunsheng's sacrifice. At the same time, the goal of the campaign can be achieved as soon as possible, at least to reduce casualties.

After receiving Du Kaishan's telegram, although Yang Zhen, who had no suitable candidate at hand for a while, was obviously a little embarrassed, he still did not agree to the candidate proposed by Du Kaishan. If Du Kaishan transferred Yang Jicai at this time to take over as the head of a main regiment, Yang Zhen would not hesitate to give an order.

Du Kaishan clearly wanted to hand over all the battles on the front line of Tieyuan to his own brother. Yang Zhen, who is familiar with the personalities of Du Kaishan and Yang Jicai, seems to be a little worried in his heart. Whether Yang Jicai has this ability or not, Yang Zhen, as the chief and elder brother, is still very clear.

But what worried Yang Zhen was not only that although Yang Jicai had achieved unexpected results many times when commanding the troops, he had no experience in commanding a division to fight. There are other things in this, which also make Yang Zhen have to be cautious.

And Yang Jicai does have a lot of ghost ideas at a critical time, but his younger brother is too good at swordsmanship. Although this approach is very suitable for the current stalemate on the Korean battlefield, I am afraid that Du Kaishan also saw this and named the important person. But his character is Du Kaishan's subordinates fighting, and if these two people join forces, they may not be able to do anything.

Although Du Kaishan has experienced the North China battlefield and the cold bench incident at present, his personality has become much calmer, and he is not so unscrupulous. But Rome was not built in a day, and this character was not developed in a day. How much has changed in his bones, I'm afraid he doesn't know.

Originally, Ma Chunsheng's 17th Division was the main attacker, which already worried Yang Zhen very much. Therefore, the political commissar of the North Korean cluster was adjusted, and Huang Yuqing, who was more principled, was sent to take over. Now that Du Kaishan has named Yang Jicai to take over as the division commander, these two bold people may come up with something.

Although Yang Zhen doesn't care too much, how these two guys will toss in North Korea. But at this time, Yang Zhen couldn't tolerate anyone sabotaging his next strategic plan. There is only one opportunity, and once it is completely lost, it is not something that can be compensated for by time and investment.

At the same time, what made Yang Zhen worried was the relationship between the two people, although Yang Jicai was his own brother, on the surface, only a few members of the Standing Committee of the Military Region knew. But after all, this matter can't be hidden for a long time, and he can't think of his subordinates too simply.

Of these cadres who have been fighting on the battlefield of blood and fire for so many years, and who have survived and stepped into high positions, which one is not a human sperm? I am afraid that the cadres who know their relationship with Yang Jicai at the moment are at least not a few among the main forces. At least Wang Guangyu, Chen Hanzhang, and Du Kaishan, a few senior commanders, must know it in their hearts.

His younger brother is currently only a cadre at the regimental level, and taking over as division commander all at once does not meet the regulations on the use of cadres. At present, although the main forces of the Anti-Japanese Federation have already entered the customs, after all, it is not the time when they have just come out of the mountains and there is a serious shortage of qualified military cadres. At this time, it is easy to leave criticism for being promoted by skipping the ranks, and even being considered cronyism.

Although in the current situation that the overall situation is decided, this is not a big deal. But Yang Zhen didn't want to break his practice in the use of cadres, let alone encounter any criticism at this time. The overall situation of the war has been decided, the situation has completely and completely changed, and I am afraid that some people will begin to ponder people. Nowhere is a pure land, where there are people, there will be struggles.

Moreover, Yang Jicai has been training staff officers of the Guannei team in the northeast, and he does not know much about the Korean war situation, and he has never been to North Korea. At this time, to take over the command, facing an unfamiliar battlefield and an equally unfamiliar battle situation, it will delay the big thing. Therefore, in his heart, Yang Zhen still focused on promoting a division commander who was familiar with the battle situation on the spot.

In fact, he believed that Sui Changqing, who was currently serving as the deputy commander of the North Korean cluster, would temporarily take over the actual command on behalf of the division commander, and it would be more appropriate to wait until the Cheorwon battlefield was over to select a new division commander. But at present, Sui Changqing, who is in charge of the entire east coast of North Korea, is really a little inseparable.

Looking at Yang Zhen, who was a little hesitant when deciding to adjust the commander of the 17th Division, he also knew that Du Kaishan's dignitaries were sending telegrams one after another, and Guo Bingxun, who was also clearly hesitating about something, shook his head and said, "No. 1, don't worry too much. The ancients still knew the truth that the virtuous do not avoid relatives, are we not as good as the ancients? ”

"Although Yang Jicai is still only a cadre at the moment, whether he has the ability or not, you as a brother should know it in your heart. I know that the bigger the plate you are now, the more concerns you have in your heart. It's not a pure land, even in our army, which has always been factional. But the capable go up and the mediocre go down, this is the iron law we use cadres. ”

And whether Yang Jicai has this ability, most people are still clear. can make Du Kaishan ask people again and again, which shows that he sees this understanding very clearly. According to your ideas and plans, the current situation on the Korean battlefield is really not something that can be solved by steady and steady fighting. ”

"No. 1, at this time, let Yang Jicai take over as the commander of the 17th Division, but not to pick peaches, let alone let him go down to the grassroots level to gild, but to put him on the fire to roast. It would be better if he could break the deadlock if he went to Tieyuan, but if he couldn't change the situation for a long time, I am afraid that his pressure would be much greater than that of you and me. ”

"If the stalemate cannot be broken for a long time, and we cannot take the Cheorwon and Kim Hwa fronts, we will always be in a disadvantageous position in the central Korean battlefield. Whatever the headquarters' next plan for North Korea will be affected. Both Du Kaishan and the original Ma Chunsheng saw this very clearly. ”

Otherwise, Lao Ma would not have sacrificed himself on the front line, in addition to his character of not admitting defeat and not being able to tolerate his failure, I am afraid it is more because of this invisible pressure. Now let Yang Jicai pick up this burden, and take it over halfway, the pressure on him can be imagined. ”

"He did something for your brother, although only a few members of the Standing Committee of the Military Region know about it. But your identity and experience bring him not only an encouragement, but also a pressure, even a shadow. If you fight well, you will win glory for your brother, and others may not say anything. If he doesn't play well, it won't just affect him. ”
