"Jin Xibin, Major Commander of the 3rd Battalion, 2nd Regiment, 2nd Security Brigade, Jiangxi Province!" At this time, Jin Xibin had already put down his hands, so after finishing speaking, he instinctively saluted Cheng Liang with a military salute.
"Tell your soldiers not to try to resist!" Cheng Liang said the last thing, and with a wave of his hand, he asked the soldiers to take Jin Xibin and others into custody.
"Report to the Commander, our army has annihilated a total of 545 enemy people in this battle, including 102 killed, and captured 443 prisoners. Among the prisoners were 47 seriously wounded and 89 lightly wounded, and captured 4 enemy small steel cannons and 2 heavy machine guns.
, 4 light machine guns, 480 rifles, 24 pistols, 100 rounds of artillery shells, and 50,000 rounds of various types of bullets.”
"Order: Simply bandage the enemy's seriously wounded; move the entire army in 10 minutes!" At this time, in the "system map", Ruijin's enemies had already left the city gate. Although it was only a battalion, Wu Aihua considered the soldiers
Continuous fighting is very tiring, and this group of enemies is no longer easy to eat.
The key point is that the enemy clearly knows that the previous battalion has been ambushed and is here for reinforcements. With the psychological preparation for combat, it is difficult for sneak attacks and ambush tactics to work again.
As for the 47 seriously injured members of the National Army, Wu Aihua could not move them with him, so he naturally left them on the battlefield and handed them over to the National Army who came from behind.
The troops retreated towards Lumaqiao and did not arrive at Lumaqiao Town until 10 o'clock at night. When they heard that the Red Army had won another battle, the villagers who were closer to the Red Army burned tea and water to express their condolences to the Red Army, turning a small town into chaos.
The lights are bright.
"Commander, this is incredible, we had three battles and three victories today!" Chief of Staff Xia Zhongqing opened the door of the tent and said.
"Hey, the struggle between us and the national army to suppress the suppression and counter-suppression is just the beginning. The days to come will be tough." Wu Aihua pointed to the stone in the corner of the tent and motioned to the chief of staff to sit down and talk.
"However, I believe that as long as we have the command of the commander, we will not be afraid of hard times. The Red Army has grown up in hard times."
"As long as everyone thinks in one place and works hard in one place, no matter how big the difficulty is, we can overcome it. My personal role in it is very limited." Wu Aihua said modestly.
The "hard days" mentioned by Wu Aihua are different from the hard days mentioned by Xia Zhongqing. Xia Zhongqing's "hard days" refers to the hard life and difficult conditions; while the "hard days" mentioned by Wu Aihua mainly refers to fighting
The pain of fighting continuously day and night, whether the soldiers can persevere. For example, in today's battle, according to Wu Aihua's idea, it is best to form an attack formation and face the enemy. Even if they cannot
Annihilating a reinforced battalion can also achieve the purpose of consuming its effective strength. However, when the army is new and the soldiers are not well trained, this combat method can only stay in their own minds.
"Commander, I have something I don't know whether I should ask." Since joining the independent detachment, Xia Zhongqing has been full of questions. He wanted to take this rare night to have a heart-to-heart talk with the commander.
"What do you mean, just ask." Wu Aihua said calmly.
"Commander, I don't know why, but I always feel that you are amazing. Why can you anticipate the enemy every time? Why do our troops suffer minimal losses in every battle?"
"This is no longer a problem for you." Wu Aihua was shocked. Did he stand out too much? Miraculous! Maybe so. He even encountered such a thing as time travel, what could be more magical! However, Wu Aihua
He still answered Xia Zhongqing's question seriously.
"It's not a mystery to predict the enemy first. For example, if Xingkan Town was attacked today, the enemy would definitely send troops to check it out. However, because today the enemy in Xingkan Town was captured by us in a drunken state, the enemy
They don’t think we are so great, so Ruijin will definitely send a troop over to take a look and rebuild the Xingkan Town defense position. In addition, the enemy will also estimate that the purpose of our attack on Xingkan Town is to raise money and food.
They would not hold onto Xingkan Town and refuse to leave. So this laid an incentive for Jin Xibin’s camp to be ambushed.
A battalion was ambushed. The 2nd Regiment of the 2nd Jiangxi Security Brigade stationed in Ruijin could not afford to lose. Its commander Lu Youquan would definitely send troops for reinforcements. In Lu Youquan's view, if we use the method of attack, its strength will definitely not be considered
Therefore, he sent another battalion, even if he already thought highly of us. However, it was difficult for us to accept the subsequent battalion. Because, firstly, we lost the suddenness of the battle; secondly, we had less manpower to guard these prisoners and put in
The combat power for front-line operations will be insufficient. In this case, I have to give up the plan of annihilating another battalion of the enemy."
Regardless of whether Xia Zhongqing digested his point of view, Wu Aihua continued, "As for the issue of battle losses, I pay more attention to it. I think that the Red Army soldiers who can participate in the revolution are the most precious revolutionary force. As a battlefield commander,
I have the responsibility and obligation to protect their lives. Sometimes, if the fighter plane is not appropriate, if the terrain is unfavorable, if it is not necessary, that is to say, objective reasons may cause the battle losses to be too high, I will give up the battle. In war, a commander
We must try our best to control the rhythm of each battle and grasp the initiative on the battlefield. This is the macro aspect of reducing battle losses. As for the micro aspect, there is much to do, such as whether the soldiers' tactical movements are standard, whether the shooting is accurate, and whether the soldiers are
Whether the cooperation between them is in place and whether the soldiers will take advantage of all favorable or unfavorable conditions on the battlefield to kill the enemy, and to do this requires more training in peacetime."
"Of course, if for a larger strategic purpose, soldiers need to make sacrifices, that is, when the sacrifice of soldiers is meaningful, the sacrifice of soldiers is inevitable. Moreover, it is not just soldiers, but also our commanders, and
We must have this spirit of sacrifice, otherwise, the revolution will not be successful, and the Chinese nation will not be able to gain independence in the true sense!"
"Pa bang bang..." Suddenly there was a burst of applause. It turned out that deputy political commissar Cheng Liang, Li Yanbing, Zhou Changbing, Feng Jianjun, Lao Kaisheng and other platoon-level officials came in.
"Commander, you spoke so well!" Cheng Liang said flatteringly.
"Have the prisoners been settled? Have the soldiers rested? Have the security posts been sent out?" Seeing these guys coming in, Wu Aihua remembered that this was in "enemy-occupied territory."
"Commander, don't worry. Everything has been arranged according to your requirements!" Lao Kaisheng replied. Battlefield security and camp security work are generally left to the security forces.
"Commander, is the army going to expand again?" Feng Jianjun, who was the first to submit to the independent detachment, could be regarded as a "veteran" in the independent detachment, and his words in front of Wu Aihua seemed very "casual".
"Yeah, I'm thinking about who to send back to train these new recruits, and Platoon Commander Feng is the most suitable candidate," Wu Aihua said.
"No, no, Commander, why don't you ask if I don't ask? I can't do this important task of training new recruits, so I'll just follow you and fight a small battle." Feng Jianjun looked bitter.
"Hahaha..." Everyone laughed. It was because Feng Jianjun asked a very stupid question. There are more people in the army. Today alone, there are more than a thousand people. Is it okay not to expand?
"Don't laugh! I think our recruit training must be carried out by specialized institutions; moreover, our officer training must also be on the agenda. When there are more people, everyone's official position will rise accordingly. This is
Inappropriate. Officers must undergo special training."
"Commander, we will do whatever you say!" Feng Jianjun also became serious at this time.
"Comrade Feng Jianjun, if I tell you what to do, you will do whatever you want. This is not a qualified independent detachment commander!" Wu Aihua also became serious, "Why do you say that? Our commander must learn to use his brain and not say what his superiors say.
That’s right, superiors are also human beings, and they also make mistakes. Sometimes their understanding of the situation is worse than that of their subordinates, and it is impossible for superiors to know everything and be proficient in everything. Therefore, the grassroots commanders of our independent detachment must be good at taking action.
The brain must be based on the reality of the battlefield, think more, and have creative thinking and creative fighting methods. If I have the final say in everything, this battle will not be fought."
"The commander's criticism was timely and correct!" Chief of Staff Xia Zhongqing said at the right time. "I'm thinking that in the future, when the army becomes larger, you will have to command tens of thousands of troops. At this time, you will have to rely on the commander alone."
? Just now, the commander mentioned that officers should be trained, and that’s exactly what he meant.”
"Yes. Commander, Chief of Staff, we understand." Li Yanbing and others immediately expressed their stance. Even though the Commander and Chief of Staff looked cold, their words were warm. They were deliberately cultivating us.
It was precisely because of similar conversations and the extremely democratic atmosphere in the Red Army that Li Yanbing, Feng Jianjun, Yang Guiqing, Zhuang Xizhen, Qian Minghui and others quickly integrated into the Red Army and grew up rapidly.
"We Chinese people have a saying that if you are not in your position, you will not seek political power. This sentence is neither right nor wrong. In the old army, military power was the private weapon of the commander. Anyone who touched it was fighting for power with the commander, so it is not
They do not seek political power in their positions; however, we are a new type of people's army, and our rights are essentially given to us by the people. Our rights arise from the needs of the revolutionary movement. The reason why we advocate
Equality between officers and soldiers and military democracy means making good use of this right rather than abusing it. Therefore, our revolutionary team can seek political power without taking their positions."
"In addition, the chief of staff asked me just now when I was commanding a battle, why I could anticipate the enemy and achieve very few battle losses. Now, I will tell you guys, and let you increase your nutrition." Wu Aihua said.
As he said this, his interest became more intense.
"Commander, speak quickly, speak quickly. This is exactly what we are wondering about." Zhou Changbing also looked impatient.
