When Liu Hai returned to the Sixth Column again, this time the commander of the Sixth Column had already ordered all the artillery to be concentrated and obey Liu Hai's arrangement. "Commander, these cannons form a regiment directly under them, artillery is a unified use of firearms, can not be used for decentralized use, in offensive warfare, artillery should be used to form a firepower advantage over the main assault area, to open up an attack road for the attacking troops, when defending, artillery to strike at the enemy before the enemy enters the range of firearms to strike at the enemy, in the artillery battle it depends on various situations and the commander's astuteness, but in general, artillery is a heavy firearm used intensively, not machine guns and rifles, as the so-called use of the wonderful, in one mind, The specific use should be specific to the situation, learn the war in the war! Liu Hai said to the soldiers of the artillery regiment of the sixth column. Good! The commander of the artillery regiment took the lead in applauding, followed by a burst of applause, looking at the new recruits in these artillery, how much they can master and understand depends on their own comprehension ability!

"Instructor Liu, to be honest, I still don't understand, but I am willing to accept your opinion, and apologize to you again, thank you for your guidance to us again!" The commander of the Sixth Column said politely. "Commander, I hope you can cherish these artillery pieces that we have at great cost, and stop using them as rifles!" Liu Hai said to the commander of the Sixth Column. "Okay, I will!" The commander of the sixth column said. "Actually, the commander of the sixth column is still very good, he is not afraid of death in battle, he is brave and good at fighting, but after all, he is also born in mud legs, he has no culture and knowledge, so it is not strange to do such a thing!" Staff Officer Liu, who was accompanying Liu Hai, said to Liu Hai. "This will not work, the quality of the leadership of this kind of army cannot bring into play the potential of a good army at all, and this has nothing to do with fear or fear of death, it is something that will affect the combat effectiveness of the entire army!" Liu Hai said: "Your enemies are all outstanding Kuomintang generals who graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy and fought eight years of bloody anti-Japanese wars, if such a unit fights against me, I can annihilate them all in one day!" "Instructor Liu, that's why No. 1 didn't let them take on the main combat mission, but was only responsible for some auxiliary combat missions of covering and sweeping the tail, and the growth of a unit also takes time!" Staff Officer Liu said.

"The next unit is the 10th Column, and the commander of the 10th Column is the old Red Army, who has been in battle for a long time, and his artillery should not be too bad!" Staff Officer Liu pointed to a troop station in front of him and said. "Go check it out, if that's the case, it will be much easier!" Bangs said. After arriving at the 10th Column, the 10th Column is resting, the 10th Column is the main force, so the artillery is stronger, there are more than 50 artillery pieces of various calibers, and the artillery combat unit is a direct battalion, after Liu Hai and Staff Officer Liu met the commander of the 10th Column, the commander of the 10th Column took Liu Hai to the station of the artillery regiment! Fifty cannons are formed in a battalion in the battle of the main column, which is a somewhat abnormal situation that Liu Hai is a little puzzled, and Liu Hai only knows what is going on after arriving at the station. "Our cannons are of different calibers, the main fifteen captured American-made cannons have a long range and great power, and they are the main firepower of our artillery battalions directly under us, and the artillery of other calibers are all Japanese-made artillery. Therefore, the artillery of our column is organized into an artillery battalion with these 15 American-made cannons, which is responsible for the task of assault and road opening in the main area, and the other artillery is assigned to the artillery battalion directly under the division level as fire support for local battles, so that the performance advantages of various types of artillery can be fully utilized! The battalion commander of the artillery battalion introduced Liu Hai. Very good, very pragmatic, there is no rigid and rigid artillery regiment, but mobile and flexible arrangement according to the actual situation, very good! Liu Hai said after listening.

"See, if it weren't for the main column, let me tell you, this artillery battalion commander used to be mixed with Zhao Zhangcheng!" Staff Officer Liu said. "Zhao Zhangcheng?" Bangs obviously don't recognize! "I said, what is the way to guide you? Didn't you come here? "Staff Officer Liu looked at the bangs like a ghost." How? Is this Zhao Zhangcheng famous? "Liu Hai didn't answer Staff Officer Liu's question, because he was a staff officer next to No. 1, and even he didn't know his situation, and it seemed that he had a high degree of secrecy here." This Zhao Zhangcheng is not simple! It was the old Red Army, when the Red Army forcibly crossed the Dadu River, it was he who used only three * to repel a lot of Kuomintang troops who rushed up, and won more than ten precious minutes for the assault troops, occupying the beachhead, which ensured the crossing of the river by the large army, otherwise if the battle was not fought well, the Red Army would be gone, the Red Army would be gone, and the Eighth Route Army and the People's Liberation Army would be gone. It can be regarded as the artillery god of our People's Liberation Army! Staff Officer Liu said with a reverent expression. Hehe, it seems that the People's Liberation Army is also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon! Liu Hai didn't know at this time, a year later, he had a competition with this Red Army artillery god, and became friends of life and death!

"The next unit is the Ninth Column, and the commander of this unit is also the old Red Army, and it is also the main force, so it shouldn't be too bad!" Staff Officer Liu introduced Liu Hai to the next unit. "Let's take a look, since No. 1 has given me a task, I should work hard to complete it, and I can't let No. 1 down!" Bangs said. After arriving at the artillery regiment of the Ninth Column, Liu Hai did not find any problems, and there were no problems in the preparation and application, until it was time to leave, Liu Hai went to check the cannon and found the problem! Liu Hai reached into the muzzle of the cannon and wiped it, and found that the inside of the cannon chamber was very dirty, in addition to the black ash, there were some tiny dregs! "How are your guns maintained?" Liu Hai asked the commander of the artillery regiment. "Recently, I just finished Jinzhou, there are more tasks, and the maintenance work is a little negligent!" said the artillery commander. "This problem can't be neglected, no matter how tired you are, you must clean up the gun chamber in time after the battle, you must know that if the cannon chamber cannot be cleaned in time, it is very likely that the next time the cannon is fired, it will explode!" Liu Hai said sternly, "Also, I found that your shells are stacked in the open space, there is a bonfire next to it, and there are soldiers who move the shell boxes as stools to sit on, this is a very serious safety hazard, it must be changed and paid attention to in time, this is a cannon, any shell can cause a chain reaction, if there is such a safety accident, it is very undesirable!" "Nitpicking!" This head of the regiment also has some culture, speaks and chews words, and after listening to Liu Hai, he muttered in a low voice.

"Regiment commander, this artillery inspection task was personally arranged by the No. 1 chief, and all units must actively cooperate and implement the guiding opinions put forward by Instructor Liu, otherwise they will be dismissed on the spot and dealt with by military law!" Hearing the muttering of the regiment commander, Staff Officer Liu walked over and said with an unkind face. "Yes!" The head of the regiment immediately replied, and turned to Liu Hai and said, "I'm sorry Instructor Liu, please put forward suggestions for rectification!" "The cannon chamber should be cleaned up in time after each battle, the shells should be stored in a special warehouse or a specially designated area, and special personnel should be assigned to guard them, fire and strong vibrations should be refused, and the transport vehicles should be specially made to make shell racks, so as to avoid safety accidents!" Liu Hai said the rectification opinion. "Yes!" The commander of the artillery regiment immediately replied, "I will do it according to Instructor Liu's advice!" ”

"It seems that it is necessary for the number one leader to send me!" Chief of Staff Liu glanced at the station of the Eleventh Column and said. "Generally speaking, the quality of the commanders of the troops is still very problematic, and in particular, there is a great lack of professional and specialized training, which greatly affects the combat effectiveness of the troops!" Bangs said a little melancholy. "There is no way to do this, our troops have grown up from weak to strong, from small to large, and have grown up in non-stop fighting, so although they have strong combat effectiveness, but because we have never had a legal identity and various conditions, we have not had the conditions and time for formal training of army officers, and this aspect needs to be strengthened in the future!" Staff Officer Liu said with great feelings. "Freezing three feet is not a day's cold, take your time, the growth of a unit is not a day or two, one or two battles can be completed, as far as it seems, the development of the PLA is still very amazing!" Liu Hai said, "Which unit will we stop next again?" "The next one we want to arrive is an ace army, their artillery is considered to be powerful, it is the unit that the No. 1 leader personally approved the establishment of the artillery brigade, the first corps of the Northeast People's Liberation Army, the commander is Xiao Jinguang, this is the trump card army in our No. 1 leader's trump card army, the head of the five tiger generals, and he commanded the three Jiangnan and four protection Linjiang battles!" Staff Officer Liu introduced. "I did hear about the Battle of Three Lower and Four Guarantees, but I was in the Soviet Union at the time, and I didn't know very well!" Liu Hai said: "This battle seems to have changed the situation of the two sides of the CCP in the Northeast, can you talk about this battle and this Commander Xiao?" ”

In the battles of Jiangnan and Linjiang in the fourth place, our army in the northeast annihilated a total of about 40,000 enemies, including the coordinated operations of the east and west, weakened the mobile strength of the enemy army in the northeast and forced the enemy to switch from offensive to defensive. Through this stage of operations, the base areas in North Manchuria have been further consolidated and developed, and the situation in South Manchuria has been markedly improved, and this has created favorable conditions for our army in the northeast to switch to a strategic counteroffensive and offensive. In the whole course of the campaign, our armies in the south and north of Manchu paid attention to close coordination strategically, and emphasized independence and initiative in annihilating the enemy in front of them in the campaign. In every battle, we strive to take the initiative, seize the enemy's weak points, strike first, and achieve the goal of strategic defense by actively attacking in the campaign. Although this battle was on par with the enemy in terms of battle losses, it had fundamentally reversed the situation of both sides and had a tremendous effect on the situation in the northeast. After listening to Staff Officer Liu's introduction, Liu Hai became very interested in this First Corps and the commander Xiao Jinguang!
