"Whether Mr. Chen is willing or not, things have happened, and the next thing is to close and transfer. With special approval from the central authorities, Liu Hai's artillery division was ordered to be transferred to Shandong for rest and recuperation, because Shandong is controlled by our party Shandong is an old liberated area, and during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, it was a unified and complete anti-Japanese base area, with a solid revolutionary foundation and abundant products, and was an ideal military rear and soldier base. Shandong's revolutionary armed forces are strong, with the main force of Shandong left behind in the northeast, and the main force of the New Fourth Army moving north to Shandong. The main force has reached more than 70,000 people, the local armed forces have reached 220,000, the militia has grown to more than 700,000 people, and the self-defense regiment has grown to more than 2.09 million people. There is also the most important point, that is, the commander of the Shandong Military Region is Mr. Chen, who has learned the lesson of the last time and knows that Liu Hai is a talent, and he is determined to keep him under his command, so he also specially sent a report to the Central Committee to ask Liu Hai to belong to the East China Military Region, but Mr. Lin in the northeast not only resolutely refused to do it, but also asked to transfer Liu Hai back on the grounds that the war in the Central Plains Theater was urgent! But Mr. Chen thinks that it is okay to keep people if he can't keep his heart, so he uses the rampant bandits in Shandong as the reason to leave Liu Hai to exterminate the bandits in Shandong!
In fact, the bandits in Shandong are not much rampant, the largest bandit leader Liu Guitang has been exterminated, the rest are some bandits who fight pettily, and the largest group is only more than 2,000 people. After Liu Hai entered Shandong, according to the order, the bandits in Shandong carried out dozens of battles, with the cooperation of the local People's Liberation Army armed forces, dealt a heavy blow to the bandits in Shandong, and it didn't even take long for the bandits to spread the name of the PLA Tianlei Division, which is Liu Hai's artillery division! The bandits paid almost enough, so Mr. Chen ordered Liu Hai to rest on the spot! But after a week of revision, a new battle order was issued!
"Report! Call from the East China Command! Sima Hong took a telegram and leaned softly into Liu Hai's arms and said. Don't be like this, we are a revolutionary army, this is not good! Bangs touched Sima Hong's face. The revolutionary army is not fake, but our two revolutionary couples are also real! Sima Hong said. What's the matter? And then there are bandits again? Bangs picked up the telegram and said. This time it's not bandits, it's the regular army! Sima Hong said. After reading the telegram, Liu Hai understood what was going on! Due to the serious problem of banditry in Lunan, there has been no great progress in the mass base, and recently the troops have been able to suppress bandits, and many bandits have been exterminated! In order to prevent the People's Liberation Army from occupying the last piece of territory in Shandong, the Kuomintang government sent a newly formed Kuomintang New 22nd Division to attack the Lunan area. At the same time, in order to cope with this offensive, the Kuomintang troops in central and northern Jiangsu also began to take action, chasing the PLA troops everywhere, especially the Fifth Army, relying on its strong combat strength, good equipment, and high quality. In order to combat the arrogance of the Kuomintang, the East China Military Region decided to lure the enemy deep and wipe out the new 22nd Division cleanly and thoroughly, so it thought of Liu Hai's artillery division! According to the order, the commander of this Kuomintang unit was Chen Cheng's nephew Shen Youfa! Although this unit is newly formed, its firepower is very strong and the equipment is very good, after all, it is Chen Cheng's nephew, so it can't be wrong! For such a unit, the troops of the East China Military Region do not have a unit that can compete with it, and the only one who is qualified is the troops of Liu Hai, which was borrowed by Mr. Chen!
"It's not that enemies don't get together!" Bangs said as he looked at the command. "Shen Youfa? Hehe! You ran to Chen Cheng's headquarters and shot him at that Commander Shen, right? Sima Hong said. Yes, that time made me estranged from Chen Cheng, and thanks to Song Ruyu's help, Chen Cheng didn't dare to do anything to me, but I didn't expect to be right again this time! Bangs said with a wry smile. It doesn't matter, I shot him last time, and this time I will kill him, so I don't have to meet him later! Sima Hong said. This guy is greedy for military salaries and destroys the morale of the army, if you want to shoot him, this time I will carry out military law for Chairman Jiang! Liu Hai said, "Inform the ghost cannon and Wu Fatzi, the whole army is ready to go!" Enforce family law for Chairman Jiang! "Yes! Teachers! Sima Hong immediately ran to inform!
Just when Liu Hai was preparing, Lu Nan was fried into a pot of porridge, because Liu Hai underestimated the quality of this Shen Youfa, since this guy entered Lu Nan, he began to rob people's property village by village, not only that, but also robbed the people's girls to serve as military prostitutes, which is simply a bandit among bandits! There was a village that killed several of his soldiers because of the self-defense forces, and Shen Youfa slaughtered the village at that time! Shen Youfa's actions greatly angered the PLA chiefs in Shandong. Mr. Chen's plan was originally to use a small force to attack and harass first, and after he was exhausted, he found that this unit had a very strong combat power, especially the artillery, which had a very good set of fighting and defense, and the shooting technique between the marches was also very unusual. In this case, it is unrealistic to mobilize troops to encircle and annihilate, and even if it is forcibly encircled and annihilated, it will suffer heavy losses, so after several considerations, the Shandong Military Region decided to call Liu Hai's artillery division to attack!
"Report! After receiving the notice, the military region sent an independent brigade to assist our army in encircling and annihilating the new 22nd Division, and the brigade commander was very famous, he was the famous Pi Dingjun, and his brigade was also called the leather brigade! "Sima Hong reports." Haven't heard of it! "Bangs tell the truth." It's normal that you haven't heard of it, anyway, the combat power of this army is very strong, especially the brigade commander Pi Dingjun, who is good at tactics, when the Central Plains broke through, the Kuomintang Chiang Kai-shek surrounded the 60,000 Central Plains People's Liberation Army with 300,000 troops, and wantonly built pillboxes, with a depth of more than 10 kilometers. In a vain attempt to launch a general offensive. In accordance with the instructions of the party Central Committee to seize the time and quickly break through the encirclement, the party committee of the Central Plains Military Region commanded the 1st Brigade under the command of Pi Dingjun to take up the task of covering the troops of the entire military region to break through to the west. Pi Dingjun led his troops to fight hard and cover the main force to break through. Then drove more than 1,000 kilometers, repelled several times the encirclement and interception of the Kuomintang army, and victoriously arrived at the liberated area of Jiangsu and Anhui, and was organized as the independent brigade of the East China Field Army, serving as the brigade commander. "Sima Hong gave a general introduction to Pi Dingjun's situation!" It is indeed very good to hear you say, but I always feel that there is something missing in this mission, according to the current known situation, the artillery firepower of this new 22nd Division is very powerful, I believe that Chen Cheng's nephew with a rice bucket must not have this ability, so I think we can ask who the artillery chief officer of the new 22nd Division is, knowing himself and knowing that he will win all battles! Bangs said. I can let the Shandong Military Region think of a way," Sima Hong said, "This time Mr. Chen's face is embarrassed, if you can avenge him, he will have to thank you to death!" ”
Soon, after careful investigation, the reconnaissance department of the People's Liberation Army obtained information about the artillery of the New 22nd Division: The artillery regiment of the New 22nd Division is a reinforced regiment with 65 large-caliber American heavy guns, as well as some other small artillery and antiaircraft guns! The most important thing is to get the information of the artillery commander of the new 22nd Division. In fact, this commander is very ordinary, and what is not ordinary is his US military adviser. This adviser was Colonel David, a well-known artillery commander in the American army! When these materials were sent to Liu Hai, Liu Hai was ready to go, and when he read the information, he could only smile and find Sima Hong. "Do you think this Colonel David looks familiar?" Bangs said. "David?" Sima Hong thought for a while: "It can't be that David, right?" "I think it's probably him!" Liu Hai said, "Fate makes people, and the days when he grabbed wine and drank in the Ramgarh training camp are still vivid, but today you are going to die on the battlefield!" "Do you think this person is powerful?" Sima Hong asked. "There are a few brushes, it's hard to say whether I can encircle and annihilate him this time, but I'm still confident that I can defeat him!" Liu Hai looked at the information and said, "He has formal training, and he is from the same professional class as me, the difference is that he has always been a tactical instructor, but I am a one-shot shot!" ”
"Report! The First Brigade of the First Column of the East China Military Region came to report, I am the brigade commander Pi Dingjun! "A PLA officer who is not tall stands up and salutes!" Are you Pi Dingjun? Bangs asked. Yes! "The person who comes is neither humble nor arrogant." Very good, I heard that you are very good at tactics, I hope this time you can play steadily and help us eliminate the new 22nd Division! Bangs said. I will definitely do it, as for the tactical ability, I don't dare to boast in front of the famous national army artillery god! Pi Dingjun said emotionally. Brigadier Pi, how do you know about me, and you still have a bit of an opinion about me? Liu Hai was very puzzled, he had never seen this Pi Dingjun, how could he have an opinion about himself? Division commander, do you remember Guangchang in Jiangxi? Pidingjun said. Guangchang? "Bangs was shocked, it couldn't be the feud that was made at that time, right?" In the battle of Guangchang, your artillery beat one of my regiments to ashes, so that the position was lost, Guangchang fell, and I myself escaped death, I have seen your awesomeness! Pi Dingjun said almost through gritted teeth. Brigadier Pi, don't mention the previous things, now we are in the same boat! Bangs said. I'm sorry division commander, according to us, we are now comrades who are fighting side by side under the leadership of the Communist Party, as for what ship, that's what you say! "Pi Dingjun is obviously deliberately singing against the stage!" Pi Dingjun! "A roar came from outside!
