Before the meeting (2)

"Report!" Before Peng Dehuai could say the battle plan, a staff officer ran over and muttered a few words next to Mr. Peng's ear. After listening to this, Mr. Peng's face changed slightly, but he didn't say anything. "Let's move on to our battle plan!" Mr. Peng began to explain his battle plan: in short, it is to lure the enemy deeper, and then go to the predetermined battlefield to encircle and destroy the enemy! Mr. Peng said in a hurry, as if there was something, but the generals didn't want to ask too much, so they just took notes nervously, and then waited for the operational documents to be issued. Sure enough, after Mr. Peng said a few words, he hurriedly ended the meeting.

"What the hell is going on, this will open!" Wu Xinquan said. "Who knows, I don't know what's going on, but our mission is still very clear, and it's very clear what is written on the combat documents!" The commander of the Thirtieth Army said. "It can't be something to the east, right?" Another commander asked. "What can it be? I heard that Song Shilun's Ninth Corps is about to enter the court! Another man said. Hahaha, Lao Song's Ninth Corps is not easy to mess with, now Lao Mei can bear it! A group of people said while looking at the documents with a grin, and Liu Hai looked at the group of generals on the side and didn't say anything. Don't leave, everyone! Mr. Peng will come back in a while to continue the meeting, please wait a while! A young staff officer came in and said. After finishing speaking, the staff officer looked around, trying to find someone else!

"Comrade Bangs!" A voice came. Liu Hai looked back and saw that it was the staff officer who taught his soldiers to use recoilless guns. "Oh, hello Comrade Staff!" Bangs said hurriedly. Last time, Su Huizhen judged from the staff comrade's pistol that the person in front of her was likely to be Chairman Mao's own son, and Liu Hai naturally didn't dare to slack off! "I didn't have time to introduce myself last time, I am Mr. Peng's confidential secretary, and my surname is Mao!" The young man said. surnamed Mao, it seems that Su Huizhen is right! "Oh, hello Secretary Mao!" Bangs said. "Have you read the plan?" Secretary Mao asked, "Hehe, how can it be so fast, I haven't looked at it carefully!" Bangs said. In fact, there is nothing to see, it is to lure the enemy deeper, set up an ambush and annihilate it, the old one, but it works! Secretary Mao said. Do you have anything to do with me? Bangs asked. Of course there is! Secretary Mao said, "Come to my office, let's discuss!" "Yes!" Liu Hai agreed, then stood up and walked out with Secretary Mao.

"That's right!" Secretary Mao said while giving Liu Hai a glass of water, "The Ninth Corps has now entered North Korea, but due to the hasty action and poor logistics support, most of the soldiers of the Ninth Regiment have no winter clothes until now, and the weather in North Korea is so scary, without winter clothes, it is very likely that they will freeze to death!" "This..." Although Liu Hai knows that he can't do it without winter clothes, what does this kind of thing mean to himself, he is just an artillery division commander, and he can't control this logistics! "Hehe, looking at your expression, I don't know what to make you do, right?" Secretary Mao said with a smile. "I really don't understand this logistical matter!" Bangs said.

Next, Secretary Mao talked about the situation of the Ninth Corps, after our army appeared on the Korean battlefield, the movement of the US troops on the eastern front could not be determined, but after that, considering the possibility of the US puppet army attacking north from Hamxing, Chairman Mao believed that it was necessary to use the main force of Song Shilun to be sure in this aspect, otherwise it would be unfavorable to the overall situation. According to the enemy's movements on the Eastern Front, the Ninth Corps had been clearly used for the Eastern Front, and the Ninth Corps had agreed with Peng Dehuai and others to use the 27th Army in the northeast of Sinuiju, and the other two corps of the Ninth Corps were located near Shenyang to rest and wait at this time, the first battle was nearing the end, and Peng Dehuai's plan for the next campaign considered that it was still necessary to concentrate forces and prepare for the 38th Army, the 42nd Army, and even the 40th Army to be fought by Tokugawa, so that the Eastern Battlefield must be completely under the responsibility of the 9th Corps, so it was recommended that the 9th Corps enter Korea. * The reply telegram believed that the deployment was very good, and one of the corps of the Ninth Corps should go straight to the river boundary and go to Changjin as soon as possible. At the same time, he sent a letter to Li Tao informing him of the positions of the various armies of the Ninth Corps on standby and resting. At this time, the Ninth Corps was prepared to enter the DPRK with two armies first, and the 26th Army was resting and waiting. Peng Dehuai's deployment telegram on 6 November was conceived on the basis of the two armies of the Ninth Corps. After that, it was believed that the combat strength of the 1st Marine Division of the US Army was said to be the strongest among the US troops, and that our army surrounded and annihilated its two regiments with two divisions, and that the strength of the troops did not seem to be enough, and that one or two divisions should be used as reserves. Therefore, it was decided to bring the 26th Army close to the front line. Originally, the decision was not wrong, but the bad luck was bad luck in the * thought that the deployment was very good, and one of the corps of the Ninth Corps should go straight to the river boundary and go to Changjin as soon as possible, and had prepared enough cotton clothes in Shenyang or Dandong, but the train of the Ninth Corps did not stop and drove directly into North Korea. The war should not be urgent to this extent, the train stops for a day to change cotton clothes, I don't know how it was coordinated at that time, all in all, now the Ninth Corps urgently needs to replenish a batch of winter clothes before the start of the second campaign!

"Now all the winter clothes are on the north bank of the Yalu River, and now they have to be transported to the front line and distributed to the soldiers, the time is very tight, because the weather is too cold now, and the Gaima Plateau in the east has dropped to minus 20 degrees, let me tell you one thing, on the first day of the Ninth Corps' entry into the DPRK, there were more than 700 cadres and soldiers who froze to death and frostbite, which is too miserable, so now our task is to quickly transport winter clothes to the Ninth Corps!" Secretary Mao said. After hearing this, Liu Hai was shocked, although the weather is very cold now, but I didn't expect it to be so cold in the east, the casualties of more than 700 soldiers are too amazing, the Ninth Corps is all elites of a hundred battles! "What do you need me to do!" Bangs asked. "Your specialty is artillery, so now you need to use your specialty extraordinarily!" Secretary Mao said solemnly.

"If you want to transport cotton clothes to the front line, the best way is to train them, but the train can't be sent directly to the front line, and you will need to transport them by car at that time, but the U.S. military bombing is very strong, almost non-stop bombing of North Korea's northern transportation lines every day, in a vain attempt to cut off our transportation and the passage to replenish troops again, this time you want to send cotton clothes over, facing a huge threat from the U.S. military, so Mr. Peng hopes that you can be responsible for this matter!" Secretary Mao said, "We probably have less than two regiments of anti-aircraft artillery on the Eastern Front, most of them are anti-aircraft artillery of the Korean People's Army, although these people's troops are more than brave, but the campaign organization and tactical ability are too poor, so Mr. Peng means that I hope you can be responsible for commanding them to air defense on the roads along the way!" Strive to get all the cotton clothes to the soldiers before the campaign starts! Secretary Mao said.

"Good!" Bangs thought for a moment and said, "I guarantee to complete the task!" "Very good, I just learned about you, you are the artillery god of the national army back then, this time I hope you can give full play to the true colors of the artillery god, resist the American plane, and strive to deliver the cotton clothes to the troops as soon as possible!" Secretary Mao said. "Is it intelligence or information about the bombing by the U.S. military?" Bangs asked. "Yes!" Secretary Mao took out a stack of documents, "This is the record of the US bombing, the number of sorties and the regularity of the US bombing in the last month, you take a good look at it and come up with a good plan as soon as possible!" Secretary Mao handed over the document to Liu Hai. Well, when the meeting is over, I'll make a plan right away! Bangs said. No, no, no, you don't have to attend the meeting, now you have to rush to the Jixing transfer station on the Yalu River, where two North Korean anti-aircraft artillery regiments are waiting for you! Secretary Mao said, "Do you know? This matter has been decided before the meeting, and it is Mr. Peng who ordered your general, so you must do it well this time, it is a matter of life and death for tens of thousands of soldiers in the Ninth Corps! ”

When Liu Hai walked out of the headquarters, Mr. Peng returned to the conference room again, and Secretary Mao personally sent Liu Hai to the car, telling him that he must succeed, and he could not let the elite soldiers of the Ninth Corps not die under the enemy's guns, but freeze to death on the Gaima Plateau! Liu Hai told Secretary Mao that please rest assured that he will be able to deliver the cotton clothes on time! Sitting in the car, Liu Hai began to look through the documents, and after reading them, he was surprised, the Americans were indeed the number one power in the world, and according to the documents, the main air force at the outbreak of the war was the Far East Air Force, which was directly under the Far East Command. The largest unit under its command is the Fifth Air Force, and its subordinate units include the 8th Fighter-Bomber Group, the 35th Fighter Interception Wing, the 339th Fighter Squadron, the 8th Tactical Reconnaissance Squadron, the 48th Fighter-Bomber Group, the 51st Fighter Interception Wing, the 4th Fighter Squadron, the 31st Photo Reconnaissance Squadron, the 3rd Bomber Wing, the 19th Bomber Wing, and a number of transport units. Such a huge number of fighters and bombers made Liu Hai feel palpitations, under the attack of such an enemy aviation force, there were only two anti-aircraft artillery regiments in his hands, which was too great!

Just when Liu Hai was thinking hard about how he could complete the task, the command of the Volunteer Army informed the North Korean side of the situation, hoping that the North Korean side would be able to help along the way. The U.S. troops were overjoyed when they learned the news, because they knew that under the severe cold of minus 30 degrees on the Gaima Plateau, no one could fight without cold equipment, so the Far East Command of the U.S. Army immediately ordered the 1st Marine Division preparing to attack on the Eastern Front to attack in advance, forcing General Song Shilun's Ninth Corps to also enter the battle in advance, and intensified the bombing efforts north of the Gaima Plateau, so that the Ninth Corps had to go into battle without cotton clothes!
