Probably, Liu Chenglin felt that his words still couldn't convince the brigade commander who was fighting well, so he added a few more words, "Brigade commander, if you refuse to accept my opinion, then I have no choice but to perform the duties of the chief of staff, report this matter to the division commander, and ask the division commander to decide, before reporting to the division commander, please order the three regiments that are attacking, postpone the time of the attack, and wait for the order of the division commander!" ”

Liu Hongzhang saw that Liu Chenglin's face was flushed, obviously he was really moved, and laughed secretly in his heart, "Honest people get serious, the eight horses can't turn back, I'm afraid that I won't be able to convince me, pull out the division commander, come on, don't tease him!" ”

Liu Hongzhang put away his smile and grinned, and said sternly: "Cheng Lin, let me ask you, about the speed of our brigade's pursuit, the result of destroying the enemy, and the position we are in now, have they all been reported to the division commander, and you handled this matter single-handedly, right?" ”

Liu Chenglin didn't understand what Liu Hongzhang meant, but these things were personally reported to the division by himself, as the chief of staff, this is a matter of duty, the brigade commander asked, what does it mean? He nodded a little dazedly.

Seeing that Liu Chenglin admitted, Liu Hongzhang was a little proud, and continued to ask: "Chenglin, you said, our brigade pursued so fast that it even pursued to the depth of the Soviet army, and was in a position where the lone army was in depth, didn't the division commander know?" ”

Liu Chenglin had a little reminiscence, and felt that Liu Hongzhang had some meaning to set himself up, but he still replied honestly: "I know, of course the division commander knows, every day, I am responsible for reporting the position of our brigade to the division command several times!" ”

Liu Hongzhang slapped his thigh and shouted: "Isn't this the end, Cheng Lin, even the division commander knows that our brigade has already penetrated into the belly of the retreating Soviet left flank troops, so why didn't he order us." Slow down or stop the pursuit? ”

Liu Chenglin completely understood, and said involuntarily: "Brigade commander, are you saying that the division commander knew that we were pursuing so fast, and moreover, he also went deep into the Soviet army, but he didn't stop it, because he thought that we would not be in danger?" ”

"Clever!" Liu Hongzhang stretched out his thumb, praised Liu Chenglin, and then said: "What you said is not wrong at all. Not only us, but also the other four brigades in pursuit must also report to the division commander at any time where they are and the speed of the pursuit, which is the requirement of the division commander! ”

"Don't you know? The second brigade on our right flank was a few dozen kilometers away from us. He also knows. However, the division commander saw that the Soviet Outer Mongolian Front was in a hurry to retreat and would not entangle with us, Cheng Lin, you see, on our right flank. Less than 60 kilometers away, is the main force of the Soviet army, hundreds of thousands of people, we have a mouthful. It was an instant affair to surround us, but why didn't the Soviets do it? ”

Liu Chenglin was a little embarrassed and said, "Didn't you just say that the Soviet army was in a hurry to retreat and didn't want to entangle with us!" ”

Liu Hongzhang laughed, "Yes, that's what the division commander means, Vasilevsky's weakness lies in this, so I dare to drill into the stomach of hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops with a brigade of soldiers, which is to fully understand the intention of the division commander, it seems that we are alone in the depths, surrounded by Soviet troops, but how many Soviet troops want to fight with us, aren't they the two Soviet divisions we bit at the beginning?" ”

Liu Chenglin was already convinced, but muttered unconvinced: "But I still think that your order is too risky, in case, in case the Soviet army comes to counter-encirclement, what should you do?" ”

Liu Hongzhang shook his head again and again, and said: "Cheng Lin, your worries will not appear, you look at the current position of our brigade, there are no Soviet troops on the left flank, it seems to break through into the depth of the Soviet army, in fact, we are parallel pursuit, and we will take a bite when we see it, if that is Vasilevsky, he is really annoyed and angry, if he wants to carry out a counter-encirclement, without waiting for him to mobilize troops, we only need to avoid the south, we can get out of danger, maybe, we can fish out a lot of Soviet troops?" ”

Saying that, Liu Hongzhang looked intoxicated, "I, I wish that Vasilevsky would come to surround me, the art of war is cloudy, five times encircled, ten times annihilated, what's the matter, to deal with my first brigade, the Soviet army has to mobilize no less than 100,000 people, according to the establishment of the Soviet army, that is the strength of two armies, so, earn and send away!" ”

Liu Hongzhang's current appearance is almost exactly the same as Tang Qiuli in the command headquarters of the Delun Division, and what he said to Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe, "Let's worry here, that Liu Hongzhang, maybe he is looking forward to Vasilevsky coming to surround him!" ”

Liu Chenglin had a chill, and said secretly in his heart: "Yes, the brigade commander is fighting in the depth of hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops, and it's not enjoyable, and I want to catch up with a bigger one, with such a brigade commander, the excitement is exciting enough, but it's also terrifying, and I'm scared!" ”

There was a question, Liu Chenglin was very puzzled, he asked: "Brigade commander, according to your analysis, the troops we are pursuing have a total of five brigades, don't the brigade commanders of other units understand the intention of the division commander, and don't know why they were thrown by our brigade more than 70 kilometers away?" ”

Liu Hongzhang looked like he knew everything, and said: "Good question, Cheng Lin, the other brigade commanders are not fools, on the contrary, they are all smart and like human spirits, they can't see such a good thing of picking up cheap, they have already seen it, why is it not as fast as our brigade to pursue?" What are the big results? ”

"Why?" Liu Chenglin asked, but he didn't deliberately satisfy Liu Hongzhang's vanity, he was flattering, but he really didn't know the reason.

Liu Hongzhang rubbed the stubble on his chin and said: "The reason is very simple, first, they are pursuing the retreating Soviet troops in the middle, once we chase and fight like this, it will be surrounded by Soviet troops on all sides, no need to deliberately surround it, as long as the Soviet troops on both sides squeeze into the middle, there is no place to run if you want to, the position of our brigade is not a problem, God also takes care of me Liu Hongzhang, ah-hahaha!" ”

"Our brigade is having a good time, among hundreds of thousands of Soviet troops, coming and going, those guys can not be red-eyed, they don't want to fight hard, but they can't and don't dare, the objective conditions don't allow, they can only follow behind the Soviet army's buttocks, tearing down the flesh in small bites, of course, the results are not big!"

Liu Chenglin suddenly realized that this qiē was under the control of the division commander and brigade commander, and he had to be frightened for most of the day, what is this called!

When he was thinking wildly, Liu Hongzhang was obviously unsatisfied, and continued to play: "Actually, the fourth brigade of the big man of Chu has the same opportunity as our brigade, and the direction of his pursuit happens to be between the two Soviet troops, there is a gap of about 40 kilometers, and the fourth brigade can pursue in any direction, and there will be no danger of being surrounded!" ”

Liu Chenglin is no longer stupid to ask, he knows that the brigade commander is talking about Xingtou, no need to ask, he himself will definitely continue, sure enough, Liu Hongzhang continued: "But the fourth brigade of the big man of Chu is still behind our brigade, and he blames himself, the direction of the pursuit of the fourth brigade is around Delun, he is in a hurry to pursue the Soviet army, his hands and feet are not very sharp, after the troops swept over, five or six thousand Soviet troops were missed. ”

"And the division commander took the command headquarters, just on the way to Delun, as a result, south of Delen, surrounded by five or six thousand Soviet stragglers, if it weren't for the timely rescue of the eleventh brigade of Lao Ren, maybe something big would happen, although the division commander did not criticize Chu Daman, but he himself had a number in his heart, fortunately, if the division commander had a little accident, the elder brother would definitely not be able to spare him, so the fourth brigade was decent, steady and steady, and he was greedy when he looked at the opportunity, so he naturally fell behind!"

Liu Hongzhang's tone was quite a bit sorry for Chu Ziye, and he was just about to give Liu Chenglin something, when suddenly, there was an earth-shattering sound of artillery bombardment outside, the earth trembled a few times, and looking through the window of the armored command vehicle, it was already twilight on the field, and the cannonballs dragged dark red tail flames, with a screaming sound, swept across the sky, and blew up a heaven and earth in the distance into a canopy that was darker red than the sunset.

"Good! Yang Er's stunned heavy artillery regiment began to move, Cheng Lin, issued an order, and the fourth regiment immediately threw itself into the attack on the Soviet army, however, you are right, in case that Vasilevsky became angry and turned around and bit back, it was not a joke, and ordered the third and fourth regiments to maintain the intensity of the attack, with the purpose of biting the troops of the two divisions of the Soviet army again, and not to be too greedy! If Lao Tzu had ten brigades in his hands, this part of the Soviet army would not want to run! Liu Hongzhang ordered somewhat unwillingly.

Sighing, Liu Hongzhang said in a summary manner: "First bit two divisions of the Soviet Army, and then bit two, plus the previous piecemeal fighting, it is estimated that our brigade can kill about five divisions of the Soviet Army, right?" Okay, it's okay, don't suffer a loss, what do you say? ”

Liu Chenglin was speechless for a while, glanced at Liu Hongzhang, and muttered to himself in his heart, "A brigade has eaten five entire divisions of the Soviet Army before and after, nearly 70,000 people, and the brigade commander is not satisfied, and he is not stimulated here," he said hello, quickly jumped out of the armored command vehicle, and conveyed the order.

Liu Hongzhang also jumped out of the car and walked towards a high post, the commander of the brigade guard battalion hurriedly stopped in front of him and said: "Brigade commander, you can't leave the area around the armored command vehicle, it's too dangerous outside, there are fierce battles everywhere, Soviet artillery shells come from time to time, and the chief of staff has ordered that you are not allowed to leave the armored command vehicle at a distance of ten meters!" ”

Liu Hongzhang looked at it carefully, this young major guard battalion commander with a nervous look, "fluttered" and said: "Look at the scene that makes you nervous, it is bigger than this, I have also experienced a lot, Lao Maozi's cannonball, it was an aimless fight, why did it fall on me, forget it, if you don't worry, just send more guards to follow!" ”
