Section 53 Co-optation

In fact, what surprised Zhao Niangzi even more was that this army was completely different from what he imagined, the officers here were all too young, not to mention the commander of the major general, although he was young, the calm look on his face revealed a steady look like a mountain, which made people see at a glance that he was definitely a fierce general who had been in a bloody battle for a long time. As for the other officers, one by one they have the rank of major, lieutenant colonel, and the most advanced is the rank of captain, but their speech and demeanor are not much different from ordinary young people. With Zhao Niangzi's understanding of the national army, it is really a bit incredible to be in such a position at such a young age in that place where seniority is orderly.

However, when Li Wenguang boldly expressed the idea of encircling and annihilating a division of the Japanese army, although she was calm, she was really taken aback in her heart. You must know that not long ago, she led her brothers to ambush the Japanese army's troops transporting grain, and the result naturally needs not be said, if it weren't for such a painful blow, I'm afraid she wouldn't have made up her mind to accept the incorporation of this national army. But this young officer is so bold that he actually wants to act against a division of the devil, what kind of courage and self-confidence in his own troops does this need?

Just when she was thinking about these things here, Liu Taiping, who had been silent, immediately stood up and sneered and said, "Battalion Commander Li, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk!" Encircling and annihilating a division of the Japanese army, at this time you still have such a ridiculous idea, usually you don't care about other things? When you're fine, can't you read more military intelligence reports and learn more about the military situation of our enemies? ”

Facing Liu Taiping, who spoke amazingly, Li Wenguang said calmly: "Liu Cannon, if you have something to say, don't go around in circles, haven't you read a few broken books?" Pretend to be a cultural person. ”

Shishi, who had been silent, snorted coldly and said, "Do you still understand the rules of military discussion?" Whoever dares to scold again, get out of here! ”

As soon as the stone spoke, everyone immediately closed their mouths, and Liu Taiping's swear words couldn't help but swallow back, obviously no one could provoke the prestige of the stone in the independent regiment. However, Liu Taiping did not keep his mouth shut, he brewed for a while, walked to the front of the map, stretched out his hand and pointed to the area of Tongcheng in northern Hubei and said: "The Japanese army already has the 106th Division in northern Jiangxi, why do you choose to open up the Eastern Front battlefield from here?" ”

Li Wenguang responded coldly: "There is no chance of breaking through on the frontal battlefield of the New Wall River, and the devils naturally have to find a way from the flanks, is it possible that they will hang themselves on a tree?" ”

Liu Taiping grinned at Li Wenguang and smiled: "Battalion Commander Li knows that if you can't penetrate the front, you have to find a way from the flank, doesn't Shangfeng know?" Or does the devil not know? ”

Everyone couldn't help but groan when they heard his analysis, Liu Taiping's simple words pulled them out of the circle of previous thinking, yes, such an obvious way of fighting, why do devils do more? How effective can the new wall river achieve if it can't penetrate the defense line and open up a battlefield that both sides can predict?

Although Li Wenguang looked down on Liu Taiping, he still admired his unique way of thinking, and after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't figure out the key point of the question, and his tone couldn't help but soften a lot, but he still asked a little reluctantly: "I don't know what Camp Commander Liu has?" ”

Liu Taiping looked at everyone at a loss, and then looked at the stone with a chuckle on his face, and the pride in his heart couldn't help but decrease by half, could it be that his own thoughts, Tuanza already knew? He couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Tuanza seems to have seen through the changes in it, so let's come on!" ”

Shi chuckled and shook his head, "I'm just guessing, and I'm not completely sure. There are many treacherous changes on the battlefield, virtual and real changes, there is really no certainty, I don't know if I guessed right or not, I just think that the Japanese army may attack the east and west, I don't know if Battalion Commander Liu has other ideas? ”

Liu Taiping immediately clapped his hands and exclaimed: "Sure enough, the hero sees the same thing." Tuanza, it is this question that I want to talk about, the devil is opening up the battlefield on the eastern front with great fanfare in this situation, in my opinion, it is just a suspicious tactic, the biggest possibility is to use Dongting Lake as a cover, landing on the west side of the battlefield, and when all the attention is attracted to the eastern front, even if the defense line of the new wall river is stronger, how can it block the attack from both sides? ”

At this time, everyone couldn't care about ridiculing Liu Taiping's stinky beauty, their eyes followed Liu Taiping's fingers back and forth on the map, and finally fell on Dongting Lake, thinking of the Japanese army's strong ships and guns, they couldn't help but be very worried, the national army relied on the river to establish a position, originally to give full play to the geographical advantage to block the devil's advance, but the devil's strength on the river and the sea is actually extremely strong, will they take advantage of such an advantage? Although they have always looked down on the little devils, thinking that they only relied on the advantages of aircraft and artillery to achieve today's results, but in the hearts of everyone, they will not really look down on the little devils, the reason why the enemy is strong, in addition to the advantage in weapons, the overall advantage in personnel is also a point, these little devils are not worse than them when they fight!

Lin Xiufeng pondered for a long time, and couldn't help but nod constantly, obviously Liu Taiping's words also spoke to his heart, at this time, he couldn't help but say: "Tuanzuo, didn't the situation we discuss here report to the military department?" Although we are in a humble position, if these words can remind us of the peak, it is very likely that we will avoid the army from falling into trouble. ”

After thinking about it, Shi immediately shook his head, and he said calmly: "We can all discuss the problems that can be seen, and the military department and even the officers in the war zone can naturally see it, and with the intelligence and information we have, all speculations are based on this incomplete information, maybe the actual situation is completely opposite to what they are discussing now." Therefore, these things are only used as some study and reference in the tactics of our regiment, as for the development of the battle situation and the coping with the officers, it is only as the direction of our study, after all, the status of our regiment is now different from usual, as the general reserve of the army, the battle we participate in should be the most critical place in the entire battlefield, this kind of key battle situation related to the victory or defeat of the whole army, there is no room for the slightest carelessness and sloppiness, not only the command of the regiment headquarters must be just right, that is, each battalion and each company must give full play to the strongest combat strength to make the best responsein order to make the hard work and sacrifice of the brothers worthwhile. ”

"Yes" Everyone got up one after another, and at the same time saluted the stone, for the stone, they no longer need to think about it to obey almost instinctively, it is also this kind of almost blind worship and trust, so that the independent regiment has a cohesion and centripetal force that other troops do not have, and it is also extremely desperate to fight.

Their reaction surprised Zhao Niangzi again, and it could be seen from the situation in front of her that this young major general obviously had abilities that she didn't understand, and the person who could make almost all the officers here admire from the bottom of their hearts was naturally not as simple as being a high authority.

Shi looked at everyone's expressions and nodded, after organizing this military meeting, he had time to answer Zhao Niangzi on the side, glanced at this beautiful woman, he turned his head to Liu Wenfeng and asked, "Crazy, have the affairs of Guanshan been dealt with?" ”

Liu Wenfeng nodded and said: "The stone, it's all dealt with, this time thanks to Zhao Niangzi's deep understanding of righteousness, everything is going very smoothly, and now the beard is being collected in the Guanshan area." According to the method we originally discussed, these people will be incorporated into the foreign Minfu battalion, and under the protection of the cavalry battalion, the barren land will be reclaimed in the area of Guanshan, and the ownership of these reclaimed fields will still belong to our independent regiment, but these people enjoy the right to use and enjoy the lowest tax amount in the field rent and tax. ”

Shi nodded and asked Zhao Niangzi, "Zhao Niangzi, do you think there is anything that is not properly arranged and needs to be adjusted?" ”

Zhao Niangzi saluted and said: "The little woman has no requirements, I just hope that these brothers and fathers can be fed and clothed, and have a stable life, General Shi and the military masters are thoughtful, not only to eat but also to share the fields, this alone is our reborn parents, the little girl and all the brothers and fathers and villagers are willing to be cattle and horses to serve the general." ”

Shi waved his hand and said: "When a soldier fights, it is our duty and duty to defend the family and the country, and it is also our duty to guard the people. Now that devils are rampant, the land is ruined, and everyone is a force, so I need to be incorporated into the army for those young men under you. ”

These things are obviously the most basic conditions for negotiation and appeasement, and now they are brought up again, just to show respect and take a formality, but Zhao Niangzi pondered for a while but still asked: "General, the little girl has an uninvited invitation, I hope these brothers can be organized in a unit, after all, they have lived and died together for so long, and they can better exert their combat power together, and everyone's hearts can be more stable." ”

Shi Shi ignored her pitiful look and waved his hand resolutely and said, "No, everything is according to the regulations, and no one in the independent regiment can be an exception." As for the arrangement of those brothers under your command, for the time being, all of them will be assigned to the supplementary battalion to train with the displaced people who have been recruited locally, and after half a year, they will be determined to stay according to the results of the assessment. ”
