Rong Zhiyong nodded and said, "Hmm...... Comrade Wen Lin, how is the fortification of the 10th Battalion of the 188th Regiment of the 125B Division in the Meiwangling area being constructed? ……”

Pan Wenlin bowed his waist and said respectfully: "Report to Comrade Major General, the 10th Battalion of the 188th Regiment of the 125B Division has built a light civil and wooden firing point and an 'A'-shaped shelter in Meiwangling, which are connected by trenches and communication trenches to form a semi-circular field defensive position. Mortars, light and heavy machine guns, anti-aircraft machine guns, rocket launchers, and other firearms are arranged in depth and echelons to form a crossfire network that combines long-range, medium-fire, close-range fire, oblique fire, and side-fire. In front of the position, in the valley and in the woods, and other easily accessible areas, and along the border, obstacles such as anti-infantry tripmines, directional mines, bamboo sticks, and iron spikes were also set up. ……”

Rong Zhiyong looked happy and said, "Hmm...... Comrade Wenlin, how is the enemy on the opposite side deployed? ……”

Pan Wenlin said respectfully: "Report to Comrade Major General, the defending enemy opposite Meiwangling turned out to be the 5th Battalion of the 2nd Frontier Regiment to which the enemy's eastern 'front finger' belonged. Just eight days ago, the 2nd Frontier Regiment suddenly changed guards with the 7th Frontier Regiment. At present, the immediate enemy of our army in Meiwangling is the enemy's 2nd Battalion of the 7th Frontier Regiment, and the battalion commander is called Wu Yougui. ……”

Rong Zhiyong frowned and said, "Wu Yougui? How does the name sound so familiar? ……”

Pan Wenlin smiled and said: "Report to Comrade Major General, Wu Yougui, the battalion commander of the second battalion of the enemy's Seventh Frontier Regiment, used to be the company commander of the guard company of the Wanglangshan listening station base. In the battle of the 'shadow troops' in the 'encirclement and reinforcements', Wu Yougui, the company commander of the guard company of this base, almost became a prisoner of our 'shadow troops'. ……”

Hearing Pan Wenlin say this, Rong Zhiyong suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Oh...... I remembered, remembered! Hehe...... This Wu Yougui was directly promoted from the main company position to the main battalion position because of the battle of 'encirclement and reinforcement', and he was promoted by a rocket. Well...... I heard that this Wu Yougui is very capable of fighting, don't many people call him 'Wu Laohu'. The road is narrow, but this time I met again, it's really fate! ……”

As soon as Pan Wenlin heard what Rong Zhiyong said, he said tentatively: "Report to Comrade Major General, this second battalion of the enemy's Seventh Frontier Regiment, especially the battalion commander Wu Yougui, I don't know if there is a chance to fight him again this time, regardless of whether he is a real tiger or a fake tiger, capture him alive!" ……”

Rong Zhiyong smiled and said vaguely: "Comrade Wenlin is eager to fight, and his courage is commendable, this is not a bad thing!" There is such a passage in China's "The Art of War: Strategy", which is called: "Listen to my plan, use it to win, and keep it; They will not listen to my plan, and they will be defeated if they use it, and they will go away. Calculating profit to listen is the momentum of the situation, in order to support it. The powerful are also controlled by profit. Soldiers, treacherous ways. Therefore, it can be shown but cannot be used, it is not used to show it, it is near and it is far away, and it is far away and it is shown to be near. ’……”

Pan Wenlin naturally knows the meaning of this passage in "The Art of War: Strategy". The meaning of this passage is nothing more than to say: "The commander listens to my counsel, and appoints him to victory, and I will keep him; If the general does not listen to my strategy, and if he is appointed, he will be defeated, so I will dismiss him. We have followed the tactics that are conducive to defeating the enemy, and we have also created a situation that will serve as an external condition for assisting our military operations. Momentum means that we should adopt different corresponding measures according to the specific situation in accordance with the needs of our side to establish superiority and seize the initiative in war. To fight with soldiers is deceit. Therefore, one who has the ability but pretends not to be able to do so, who actually wants to attack but pretends not to attack, who wants to attack near but pretends to attack the distance, and who attacks the far but pretends to attack the near. ……”

But Pan Wenlin couldn't guess Rong Zhiyong's true intentions, and he didn't dare to ask, so he had to laugh and say: "Comrade Major General is very right! The combat effectiveness of this No. 7 Frontier Regiment is similar to that of the No. 2 Frontier Regiment originally stationed, and it is responsible for production and construction tasks all year round, but it only conducted short-term military training before the war in '79, and a large number of new recruits were recruited, and the military quality of the troops is not high. After several years of actual combat, the combat effectiveness of the Seventh Frontier Regiment and the Second Frontier Regiment has improved a lot, but in our eyes they are still second-rate troops. In particular, this Seventh Frontier Regiment is even worse than the Second Frontier Regiment. The reason is that the Second Frontier Regiment fought with us in 79 years, and it was a defeated general of the 125th Regiment of the 188th Division of the 188B Division. However, after all, the Second Frontier Regiment invaded China's territory and was very familiar with the terrain in the Meiwangling area, which can be regarded as one of the strengths of the Second Frontier Regiment. Unfortunately, however, the Second Frontier Regiment and the Seventh Frontier Regiment, which were very familiar with the terrain in the Meiwangling area, changed their guards. ……”

Pan Wenlin's evaluation of the Second Frontier Regiment in the "Self-Defense Counterattack against Vietnam" in the 79th year and the 125th Regiment of the 188th Regiment of the Vietnamese Monkey Division in the Mai Wangling area was quite belittling and exalting others. As Nathan, a philosopher from the Yankees, said, "We See i."

Othe

(We see in others what we are afraid of, and belittling others makes us feel better.) ）”

As a matter of fact, in the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam in '79, the main task of the 2nd Frontier Regiment was to first attack and annihilate the enemy in the Bilao area of the Vietnamese monkey, and then occupy the unnamed heights on the south side of Birao with a part of its troops, ensure the smooth passage of the road from Tansan to Dongzhong, and cooperate with the main force of the independent division of the provincial military district to annihilate the enemy in the Hengmo and Baoken areas. At the beginning of the battle, the Second Frontier Regiment had not been trained for a long time and had an inaccurate grasp of the enemy's situation before the war, and in addition, there were often clouds and fog above the mountainside in the Meiwangling area, which had a certain impact on observation, shooting, and movement. However, most of the soldiers of the Second Frontier Regiment were local soldiers, and the soldiers hated the Vietnamese monkeys who were ungrateful and repaid their virtues with grievances. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "Guangxi wolf soldiers are the best in the world". The 2nd Frontier Regiment learned lessons in a timely manner, quickly adjusted its tactics, adapted itself to the battlefield, and caused the Vietnamese monkeys of the 188th Regiment of the 125B Division to lose their armor and run wildly, losing the face of the world's "third military power".

Rong Zhiyong looked happy and said: "Well...... the second battalion of the Seventh Frontier Regiment of 'Wu Laohu' can fight again, and they are not familiar with the terrain, which is called not knowing the other, and they have already lost half of the first!" Is there any change in the second battalion of the 7th Frontier Regiment of 'Wu Laohu'? ……”

Pan Wenlin said: "Report to Comrade Major General, the 2nd Battalion of the 7th Frontier Regiment of 'Wu Laohu' has entered a state of full alert, and the preliminary judgment is that it will take action against me, and the target is Meiwangling. At about 2 o'clock this afternoon, the enemy's militia on the opposite side of the Meiwangling area suddenly blocked the Banxing and Zhangyi areas of the entire Dongzhong Commune. The front-line scouts of our army could not enter enemy territory and reconnoiter the enemy's movements. What is even more suspicious is that the enemy's militia suddenly burned a large amount of thatch and dead branches along the border line, generating a large amount of smoke, making it impossible for our forward troops to observe. In addition, according to the report of the 10th Battalion of the 188th Regiment of the 125B Division, traces of enemy scout activities were found near the unnamed high ground on the southeast side of the 1060.2 Heights where the command post of the 10th Battalion Battalion and the C Company and the Artillery Company were stationed. Judging by the 10th battalion, it should be scouts of the enemy's artillery. We have made full mobilization and preparations in view of the enemy's movements, and if the 2nd Battalion of the 7th Frontier Regiment of 'Wu Laohu' dares to invade our Meiwangling area, we will definitely ask him to come and go back and turn Meiwangling into a 'sad ridge for Wu Laohu'! ……”

Wu Wenyan saw that Pan Wenlin was furious and hurriedly stopped him. said solemnly: "Comrade Wenlin, the second battalion of the Seventh Frontier Regiment of 'Wu Laohu' dares to attack, and we must make him come and go. However, let's not forget that our main task is to prevent the remnants of the enemy's 'sword troops' from returning from defeat! ……”

Rong Zhiyong nodded to Pan Wenlin, and said to Lieutenant General Wu Wenyan with a smile: "I said old classmate, your First Military Region is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger!" In China's "Sun Tzu: Seeking Attack", it is said, "Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles; Knowing oneself without knowing the other, one wins and one loses; I don't know who I am, I don't know myself, I will die in every battle. ’…… Comrade Wen Lin is only an intelligence officer, but he knows the situation of both the enemy and us well, and he is really rare, and he will certainly become a rare pillar of our army. ……”

Pan Wenlin was about to be humble, but Wu Wenyan laughed "haha" and hurriedly said, "Haha...... Comrade Wenlin is indeed a talent! However, the deputy chief of the general staff of the General Headquarters of the Army praised him so much, beware of his pride! ……”

Wu Wenyan's voice was a little loud, and Rong Zhiyong's ears were shocked to "buzz". He shook his head, seemed to be a little disapproving, and said seriously: "China's Zhuge Liang said in "Li Shi" that 'the way of the husband and the soldier, respect the knight, and look at the wealth, then the soldier is all right; If you take it with courtesy and believe it, you will not die; The animal is tireless, and if the law is painted one, then the soldiers are all convinced; First with the body, then with the people, then all the soldiers are brave; Small kindness must be recorded, small merit must be rewarded, and all scholars are advised. ’……”

Pan Wenlin didn't know that Zhuge Liang had also said this passage, whether it was the Chinese version or the Vietnamese version, he had never seen it. Moreover, Pan Wenlin's Chinese level is very average, and he can't understand what Rong Zhiyong is saying at all. However, Wu Wenyan understood, and he thought in his heart: "Rong Zhiyong said that this passage was said by Zhuge Liang in "Li Shi", and I don't know whether it is true or not. However, it is obvious that the generals must be good at motivating the soldiers, and according to the current statement, it is necessary to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the soldiers. It is self-evident that only soldiers can win with their lives. This passage not only raises questions, but also proposes solutions to them. Well...... Even if Zhuge Liang said it, Zhuge Liang put forward five ways to motivate soldiers in this passage. Including rewards, courtesy, favors to soldiers, leading the way for soldiers, and rewarding meritorious deeds, these are all effective methods for leading soldiers and commanders. The key is to use them in a combination and to be consistent and non-discriminatory. Then you will gain the hearts of the army, and the soldiers will naturally serve their lives, and they will be invincible. However, what does this have to do with Lieutenant Colonel Pan Wenlin? Could it be that Lieutenant Colonel Pan Wenlin's ancestral grave is smoking, and his thousand-mile horse has met Major General Bole Rong Zhiyong, and he is about to soar? However, Lieutenant Colonel Pan Wenlin is an intelligence officer. Major General Rong Zhiyong was in charge of the operation, and he did not care about intelligence. ……”

However, Wu Wenyan is well versed in the unspoken rules of officialdom of "fancy sedan chairs carry people", and he said to Rong Zhiyong with a smile: "I said old classmate, I have long said that with your talent, you will definitely be able to become a famous military strategist in our country and even the world in the future!" Ha ha...... However, people are iron and steel, and while the remnants of the 'Wu Laohu' and the 'Sword Army' were defeated, let's eat first. ……”

"Good! Guests are as they please! ......" Rong Zhiyong suddenly stopped, stared at the sand table and said: "Old classmate, I always feel that the east side of Meiwangling, that is, a platoon of Company A of the 10th Battalion of the 188th Regiment of the 125B Division and the junction of the Baoken Independent Battalion is a weak link. In this way, a company of the vanguard of the 308th Regiment of the 692nd Division of the Vanguard Army Division should have arrived in the Meiwangling area, and it was recommended that the old classmates order them not to be afraid of fatigue and march immediately, this loophole is plugged! ……”

Seeing Wu Wenyan's hesitation, Lieutenant Colonel Pan Wenlin said: "Report to Comrade Major General, the terrain there is dangerous, and there is a bottomless cliff between the two mountains!" ……”

Rong Zhiyong said coldly: "Hehe...... Comrade Wenlin, don't forget that they are a 'sword force'! ……”
